Chapter 1157: Chapter 1157: Filming Complete
This is a very modern apartment, yet it is simply and elegantly decorated.
Due to a power outage, candles were lit all around the room, casting a gentle glow — not too bright, but very warm.
A man and a woman sat on a soft sofa, their shadows elongated by the candlelight on the wall, creating an extremely romantic atmosphere.
At this moment, the female lead played by Jiang Pan Die had already changed into dry clothes, though her hair was still dripping wet.
In front of her was a bowl of hot noodle soup with two eggs, steaming and exuding a tantalizing aroma.
Gurgle...
Jiang Pan Die’s stomach growled—this wasn’t acting; she was genuinely hungry...
She wanted to grab the chopsticks and dig in, but Lin Tian stopped her.
He said, "Take care of your wounds first before eating."
Lin Tian frowned, holding Jiang Pan Die’s delicate, smooth hand, looking at her wounds with heartache. Though not deep, the injured area was quite large.
A scar on such a smooth, fair arm was not only distressing but also quite unsightly.
Lin Tian naturally took out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket, just about to apply the medicine on Jiang Pan Die, when Yu Qianming hurriedly gestured for all the cameras to zoom in, starting a close-up of the small white bottle in Lin Tian’s hand.
Lin Tian had mentioned before that the product needed to maintain its mystery. Letting the audience see miraculous effects without knowing what the product was would pique their curiosity much more effectively than telling them straightforwardly.
Just like when learning to read as a child, teachers encourage students to look up words they don’t know in the dictionary to make a deeper impression.
After a moment’s distraction, Lin Tian cleared all irrelevant thoughts from his mind, ignoring the surrounding people and cameras, and focused intently on Jiang Pan Die’s wounds.
For convenience, the White Lotus Muscle Powder had been made into a gel, contained in a small spray bottle — a press on the nozzle, and it was ready to use.
Lin Tian gently applied the medicine to the wound on Jiang Pan Die’s arm, causing her to wince and inhale sharply in pain.
And then, a magical scene unfolded.
The wound on Jiang Pan Die’s arm healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, even closing before it had a chance to scab over.
Witnessing the miracle firsthand, Jiang Pan Die’s mouth opened slightly in astonishment, her face full of disbelief.
This was without added effects and wasn’t a Blinding Skill.
Even though she had heard of the product’s miraculous nature before, and Lin Tian had explained it to her, it had still exceeded Jiang Pan Die’s expectations.
Apart from the wound on her hand, the two abrasions on her leg also gradually healed under the miraculous effect of the White Lotus Muscle Powder, leaving not a trace of a scar behind.
"This..."
Jiang Pan Die looked at Lin Tian in amazement, and Lin Tian just smiled lightly, putting the bottle of medicine into her pocket, saying, "In the future, when I’m not around, show some care for yourself. Use this when you get hurt, it’s better than any Spirit Pill or magical medicine."
Lin Tian thought he was truly a genius at advertising.
Jiang Pan Die nodded and did not continue asking, but rather picked up the bowl of noodles in front of her and ate ravenously as if she hadn’t eaten in three days.
Lin Tian sat beside her on the sofa, watching this scene with a face full of happiness, except... two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks.
...
Shooting ended at this point, marking the conclusion of the commercial.
This commercial contained many unexplained matters. For instance, the nature of the relationship between Lin Tian and Jiang Pan Die, why Lin Tian suddenly appeared, and why tears were shed at the end.
Many questions remained unanswered in the video. It was an advertisement that encouraged open-mindedness and piqued one’s curiosity.
Yu Qianming, looking at the cameras in front of him, still felt a little unsatisfied.
Previously, when he was a director, he dictated how the script should be shot. This was the first time someone else decided on the script, leaving him clueless about the subsequent plot. He only knew what had been captured so far.
He had also asked Lin Tian about what the next story was. Would the next product continue to be shot this way?
Lin Tian smiled and simply replied, "Next time when you shoot, you’ll find out the next part of the story."
This kid speaks like practicing Tai Chi, making it hard for Mr. Yu to grasp what was going on. He wanted to probe further, but Lin wouldn’t say, and after all, he was the client, the boss, and Mr. Yu had no leverage.
After filming, Jiang Pan Die also asked similar questions. She was evidently even more curious than Yu Qianming and had a much better relationship with Lin Tian. So there weren’t as many constraints on what could be shared.
Originally, Jiang Pan Die intended to use a ’relentless pestering tactic’ if Lin Tian didn’t speak.
But Lin Tian simply said, "I can’t tell you right now, because it depends on your own imagination. You’re supposed to start this topic and write a story, if I tell you, wouldn’t it be a spoiler?"
"You’re so stingy!" Jiang Pan Die turned her head slightly, slightly pouting but with a hint of playfulness.
With words like that, how could she continue to pester?
Lin Tian was happy to see everyone with such curiosity; their curiosity would drive them to understand, and in understanding, they would pay attention — attention to the ad meant attention to the product, right?
Apart from the storyline, Mr. Yu, in light steps, approached Bai Shishi, rubbing his hands and asking, "Mr. Bai, does your company’s product actually work that well?"
Bai Shishi, asked this, couldn’t help but chuckle, "Mr. Yu, the video we just shot didn’t use any special effects. You know that better than I do; do I need to emphasize the product’s efficacy again?"
Yu Qianming also realized his question was kind of stupid, and he chuckled awkwardly, "Hey, what a pointless question from me. So, does your company have more of such a product? I’d like to buy a few bottles to take back for my wife and daughter."
"No need to be so formal, Mr. Yu. It’s not worth much; I’ll send you a few bottles later," Bai Shishi said with a smile.
"..."
Not worth much?
White Lotus Muscle Powder is a luxury product, priced at over a thousand per bottle. And now, due to high demand, it has been resold for two to three thousand per bottle.
Giving away several bottles just like that, indeed, they were wealthy.
Of course, Mr. Yu wasn’t someone who hadn’t seen money, but having money didn’t mean he could overlook financial realities.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Bai." Yu Qianming said with a smile, "I’ll send you the finished video via email as soon as it’s completed."
"Thank you for your hard work." Bai Shishi smiled and nodded at him.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Yu Qianming instructed everyone to wrap up and loudly declared, "What would you like to eat? It’s my treat tonight!"
Yu Qianming was in high spirits, not because Bai Shishi promised him a few bottles of White Lotus Muscle Powder, but because he was certain that this commercial would indeed make a huge splash.
Besides Qiansimei and Jiang Pan Die, he was among those who would benefit the most. It might not bring much money, but it would be a shining addition to his resume.
With fame, would money be far behind?
