Chapter 1595: Chapter 803: Cruelty

Everyone raised their glasses together.

Zhou Yun said, "Let’s work hard together."

After dinner, everyone went into the room to watch a movie.

The film they selected tonight was one starring Nakajima Hoto.

Nakajima Hoto was a bit shy, seeming embarrassed that so many people were watching her performance together.

But Zhou Yun thought that what Tim Lang did was really worth learning from.

A gathering like this allows everyone to understand each actor’s performance style and habits.

This would be very beneficial for them when acting together later.

Without such an event, honestly, it would be hard for Zhou Yun to watch a movie starring each of these people on her own.

It’s nearly an impossible task.

During the viewing, Tim Lang would occasionally share some of his thoughts.

Nakajima Hoto would also respond to everyone’s comments.

Why it was handled that way then, and what the director of this film wanted to express.

Nakajima Hoto is quite a shy girl, but despite her gentle speech, she firmly defended the honor of this film.

Zhou Yun watched this film for the first time, and she liked it quite a bit.

Nakajima Hoto’s performance in the movie was also very good, being very restrained in her acting.

She’s a very good actress.

After watching, Tim Lang said, "Hoto, you did really well in this movie. Gentle yet powerful, especially in the scene where you decided to risk everything to save Kuichiro. Your eye acting was excellent."

Nakajima Hoto’s face turned a shade of shyness.

"Thank you for the compliment. Actually, I still have a lot of room for improvement. Please give me your guidance."

Everyone praised Nakajima Hoto.

The atmosphere was very harmonious.

Zhou Yun spent her first evening with the crew like this.

She returned to the hotel, took a shower, and then prepared to sleep.

The intense physical training made her very tired, especially after a hot shower, she felt even more exhausted.

She sent Song Chi a goodnight message, turned off the light, and fell asleep almost as soon as her head hit the pillow.

Early the next morning, Zhou Yun changed into her exercise clothes and went downstairs for a run.

This area was unfamiliar, so Zhou Yun didn’t dare to run far, just along the roads near the hotel.

Halfway through, she ran into Jin Zhulin, who was also on a morning run.

"Hi," Zhou Yun greeted her.

Jin Zhulin also said hi, with a bright smile.

Everyone’s English was good enough for normal conversation.

"Do you usually go for a run every morning?" Jin Zhulin asked.

Zhou Yun nodded, "I have always had this habit."

"Me too," Jin Zhulin said, "Have you ever been to Korea?"

"I went to promote a movie," Zhou Yun replied, "But never traveled for leisure. Every time the work ended, I left in a hurry."

Jin Zhulin said, "You’re very popular in Korea too. Many people in our country like you. If you get the chance, you should come to visit us."

"Really? Then I must visit if I have the chance," Zhou Yun said.

After chatting for a bit, Jin Zhulin said, "I’ve almost finished running. I’m heading back. Are you going to continue?"

"Yeah, I’ll run a little longer," Zhou Yun nodded. "You go ahead, I’ll see you later."

"Okay."

Zhou Yun continued running, with two bodyguards following behind her.

Jin Zhulin glanced back at Zhou Yun, her eyes fell on the two bodyguards following Zhou Yun.

...

In the next few days, Zhou Yun did the same things every day: learning moves, practicing moves.

Nearly half of the film consisted of action scenes, and they were in different settings.

After learning the moves, Zhou Yun began real practice with other actors.

This process was actually very tedious, and also prone to injury.

Because many people weren’t familiar with martial arts and didn’t know how to control themselves.

On the fourth day in the crew, Zhou Yun’s hand got bruised—a blue mark appeared from when Nakajima Hoto accidentally hit it with a shield.

Nakajima Hoto was scared stiff and kept apologizing.

Zhou Yun patted her on the shoulder, gritted her teeth through the pain, and said, "It’s okay, no big deal. You continue practicing while I go handle this."

Luckily, the issue wasn’t too serious; it was just painful but didn’t affect the bones, and would recover in a few days.

Tim Lang learned about the incident and was particularly attentive, instructing the stunt coordinator to make sure the actors don’t get carried away. Otherwise, half the people might be injured before filming even starts, making it impossible to shoot.

It was in these circumstances that Jin Zhulin suddenly had an accident.

She pulled a ligament in her knee during training, her face turned completely red with pain, sweat rolled down, and she couldn’t even stand.
