apples more than anything

Summer afternoons are always much longer than mornings.

Song Pingguo, who had been hiding in the shade of the tree, felt a little overwhelmed, not to mention the actors who covered their thick clothes and performed various large-scale movements. The food they ate at noon had already been consumed. Every minute The time spent was slower than the last minute, and the sun seemed to have no intention of moving westward at all, hovering in the position that tortured them most in the sky.

In this state, only Leiqiu remained calm. She didn't sweat and her face didn't turn red, and she didn't need to drink bottles of ice water. Said: "I ate an extra box lunch at noon."

As soon as Xia Yiming heard that the big issue was not good, but it was a big issue related to funds, he rushed forward and threatened in advance: "This method is not allowed to be imitated!"

Not far away, Sangzhi answered lightly: "Director Xia, even if we want to follow suit, we must be able to eat two lunch boxes."

Only Song Pingguo knew about the whole crew, if Lei Qiu said she ate an extra lunch box, then she must have eaten three lunch boxes.

There is only one situation where Song Pingguo likes to stay by the stove in summer.That's the way it is now, the beef in the pot is squatting, and after adding curry powder and spices, it begins to emit fragrance. Beside the steaming cauldron, Song Pingguo simply sweated profusely, thinking that The effect is similar to that of a sauna.

At dusk, the aroma of this big pot of beef curry has already made many people feel distracted, and they can't wait to eat ahead of time with Xia Yiming's eyes on them.

And Song Pingguo was still standing by the pot adding fuel to the fire.

Every time she shakes in a spoonful of new spices, there will be a uniform swallowing sound in the air, and Xia Yiming's helpless scolding, when she takes out the broth in the mineral water bottle and pours it into the pot , Gong Xiao also ordered Xia Yiming to finish work early today as a sponsor.

The actors cheered and rushed to Song Pingguo's cauldron from all directions, and offered suggestions:

"Can I leave out the onions?"

"I don't really like carrots..."

"What kind of meat is this? Beef? So much? God, our crew is so rich!"

"What's in it? Why is it so fragrant..."

Only Leiqiu remained unmoved, she had already discovered the crux of the problem, and pulled out a second cauldron from Song Pingguo's pickup truck, which was full of rice.The rice was brought along with the morning box lunch. Of course it was cold long ago, and it seemed to be cooked hard on purpose, but everyone knew why, because only this kind of rice could greet you later with the best attitude. That spoonful of beef curry served on top.

Just when Song Pingguo was stirring the pot to turn into viscous curry and was about to put a spoonful of it on everyone's plate, an accident happened.

The inferior rubber band she bought at the street stall for convenience died gloriously when she went to get the spoon—fortunately, it didn’t fall into the pot.

The hair came loose with the breaking of the rubber band. Song Pingguo abided by the professional ethics of being a chef, and hurriedly took three steps back to stay away from the pot. And flew away.

Song Pingguo looked around anxiously, only seeing one suitable candidate.

"Raichu! Raichu! Come here!"

Lei Qiu hesitated for a moment, then handed over his packed lunch box to Xia Yiming for safekeeping, and ran to Song Pingguo.

"My rubber band is broken." Song Pingguo turned her back to Leiqiu, "Come on, help me grab my hair so I can share curry with them."

Fortunately for Lei Qiu, Song Pingguo was a little shorter than her.But she soon discovered that this job was quite technical. Song Pingguo's upper body moved around with the movement of pouring curry for everyone, and she had to follow suit.

Leiqiu spent all her life's thick skin on eating and acting, and she is very thin-skinned in other aspects, so she was embarrassed to stick close to Song Pingguo, and of course she didn't dare to get too close , because Song Pingguo warned her: "Don't go any further. If you go any further, I will throw you into trouble. Leiqiu? Leiqiu, what are you doing? Leiqiu, don't drool!"

"Sorry, but I'm really hungry..."

As the sun went down, everyone had a portion of rice and curry in their lunch boxes. Leiqiu walked to the pot with the rice in his face and bent down, but was pleasantly surprised to find that the beef would sink to the bottom.

"Small! Pingguo!" Lei Qiu was touched and ran to sit next to Song Pingguo, holding a lunch box full of beef, "I love you so much!"

"If you love me, can you please stop calling me Little Apple, and don't pick out the carrots I put in, I've stewed them very badly!"

"Oh, don't be discouraged." Lei Qiu leaned on Song Pingguo's shoulder, "No matter how skilled a chef is, he can't save a picky eater."

"It would be nice to have some wine at this time." Gong Xiao also looked enviously at the beef in Leiqiu's bowl, "Or some more beef."

"Eating curry and thinking about drinking, be careful of stomach bleeding like your father." Raichu glanced at him sideways, "Why don't the sponsors pay for it, so we can buy some?"

"Hey, Leiqiu, sit still and don't lean against me, let me stand up." Song Pingguo put down the lunch box in her hand, ran to the compartment of the pickup truck and took out a small cardboard box.

She opened the carton to reveal six small cakes inside.

The first person to reach out to grab it and eat it was naturally Leiqiu. She put it under her nose and sniffed it vigorously: "The one with wine?"

"Yes, try it."

There were only six cakes, and Lei Qiu, Xia Yiming, and Gong Xiao each took one, and two of the remaining three were given to Lu An and Sang Zhi. Since it is an extra benefit, not everyone in the crew has it, Song Ping So I took the rest and that with peace of mind.

Lei Qiu carefully tore off the wrapping paper next to it and took a bite. In addition to the original fragrance of the cake, he could also taste the strong aroma of beer: "Beer?"

"Dark beer muffin cake, it was placed on the shelf for two days after it was made, and now the smell of the wine has completely soaked in, it is the best time to eat." Song Pingguo impatiently brushed away the hair hanging down her cheeks, "Daddy The reality of Xia Tian is annoying."

"It's okay, I have a move."

Raichu took out a crumpled black square scarf from his pocket, spread it on his knees, wiped it twice, tried to smooth it out - of course the result was very different from what she expected - and folded it into a triangle , handed it to Song Pingguo: "Use this?"

Before Song Pingguo could reply, she had already graciously tied the scarf on Song Pingguo's head, helped her stuff the broken hair hanging outside, and sincerely commented: "And your little rabbit apron It’s perfect, and you can use it at home.”

Song Pingguo tore off the scarf, pinched it in her hand and smelled it under her nose: "Hey, where did you get this scarf, it smells so good?"

"Oh, this is what I used to wrap apples."

If Leiqiu is the person most admired by the entire crew, then Sangzhi is the person everyone takes care of the most.

After all, she has just graduated from high school, and she is the youngest in the crew. Because of the role, she has to wear a layer of heavy and airtight armor outside her clothes. She is always the most tired one in a day, but she has never cried out that she is tired. In the evening, when everyone was sitting and chatting together, she would stay very late, holding the script and sitting aside flipping through it.

Leiqiu, Song Pingguo's overall evaluation of her is "can eat, drink, sleep, play, run, and talk." As long as she is full and has nothing to do, she will suddenly become a chatterbox who can talk about everything. There was no shortage of words all night long.

However, her life experience sounds ups and downs, but in reality it is a bit boring. After graduating from elementary school, she entered a drama school, and after finishing drama school, she went to act in a drama. Every day is hard training and performances, and her spare time is limited.And Raichu was thinking about how to act even in his spare time.

So the topic of chat soon brought up when she was acting in dramas before.

What Leiqiu likes to talk about the most is not the things she performed after she entered the school and had a teacher to teach her seniors, but the Wu Song Fighting the Tiger when she first came into contact with drama.

It wasn't long before the opening scene when she was hired to replace her temporarily. Fortunately, Tiger didn't have any lines, just remember what to do after playing.It was only after Leiqiu knew how Tiger acted that he realized why they went to the drama school to find her as an extra.

It is not too difficult for a person to walk on the ground, but walking on the ground requires a cat-like demeanor and difficult fighting moves. In one scene, Raichu's palms, wrists and knees They were all bruised by the floor of the stage, and it took a long time to dissipate.

There was a small supporting role with longing and longing, saying that she was actually studying a major that had nothing to do with acting, and she went to Hengdian to become an extra for her dream, but she was lucky enough to get Xia Yiming's fancy. Finally got the chance to play a supporting role.

Looking at it this way, there are really not many people with majors in the crew. Everyone talked about their majors in a hurry. When Song Pingguo asked, she laughed: "My major and acting are really good. It has something to do with it, I studied stage management."

"You studied stage management?!" Raichu was shocked.

The stage manager can be said to be the soul figure beyond the director's position in the theater.

A stage manager needs to formulate a rehearsal schedule, organize plays, coordinate props, manage personnel, design stage moves and prop positions, constantly confirm the schedule with the director and actors, and feed the actors when they forget their words. Words, rehearsal reports need to be submitted every time... All in all, the stage manager "supervises" everything, and is the general coordinator of a play. Due to the particularity of the stage play, the stage manager has a higher status than the director. The stage manager also serves as the director.

They are also very easy to identify. Walking into a rehearsal scene, the one who is busy and busy must be the stage manager.

Raichu was still in this extreme shock: "Why didn't you tell me that you studied stage management?!"

"You never asked me what I studied?"

"Then why didn't you mention it every time I talked to you about the little knowledge of popular science dramas?" Leiqiu didn't dare to recall the previous scene, "Isn't that my standard trick?"

"I think you're doing a good job, don't you?"

"Stop talking." Lei Qiu squatted on the ground covering his face, "If you talk about it again, I'll die in shame for you..."
