Secret Marriage, High-Profile Pampering!-Chapter 649 Brake Failure
Her assistant was worried she might catch a cold and was constantly busy tending to her.
As soon as the director shouted "cut," the assistant immediately wrapped her body in a coat, offering hot water and helping her with her makeup.
In such adverse conditions today, filming this kind of scene is definitely a challenge for the actresses.
All the actresses on set have it tough, dressed lightly, nearly freezing sick, yet must keep expressions as if they were in a warm room.
Less than half an hour after Summer Sutton arrived, the director had already called "cut" several times.
This weather makes it really difficult to proceed with filming, with actors trembling the entire time.
If no solution is found, the day’s work is bound to be delayed.
Lorraine Hughes’ assistant was busy keeping Lorraine warm, probably troubled by this issue as well. She glanced at the director and proactively suggested, "Director, how about sending someone to buy a couple of blankets? During the scenes that only film the upper body, Miss Hughes and the male actor can wrap up in blankets to stay warm."
The actors and actresses in idol dramas are all top-notch in terms of looks.
For filming, attention is only on the face; the men are handsome, the women are beautiful. If they were wrapped in a blanket from the waist down, it would indeed create a discordant image.
But given today’s weather, this method is not a bad idea.
If the actors don’t stay warm, the work truly can’t go on.
This is an outdoor shoot, and the crew hadn’t prepared blankets.
The director’s gaze swept across the scene, deliberating on whom to assign this task, when Lorraine’s assistant’s voice sounded again, "Actually, I can go. Miss Hughes’ motorhome happens to lack a blanket, buying one would be just right. But I’m currently busy and can’t step away. Miss Sutton just came to help, right? How about Miss Sutton help us buy some? We can lend our car to Miss Sutton."
Today, Summer Sutton is here, enduring the cold and acting as a gofer, as part of accepting the department manager’s punishment.
Lorraine’s assistant’s request doesn’t give Summer much of a reason to refuse today.
She had no feelings for Lorraine, but helping anyone is helping, and being in the same company means they’ll inevitably bump into each other.
They had asked, and it seemed inappropriate for Summer not to go.
After thinking it over, Summer still took Lorraine’s car keys and drove away from the set.
The filming location was in the suburbs, quite a distance from the city center.
The roads today were icy, making driving particularly slippery.
After Summer got on the road, the car lost control several times.
Lorraine’s car wasn’t easy to drive; it’s a heavy-duty off-road vehicle.
Summer usually drives sports cars, which are lighter; heavy-duty off-road vehicles seem cumbersome to her, and even the steering wheel doesn’t turn very smoothly.
Summer hadn’t used her car before, making the car a completely new experience for her.
Her first test drive was on icy roads, which required much greater handling skill.
After Summer drove out, she worried about concealed unfrozen puddles within the dense grass, and tried several times to slow down, but the car was utterly unresponsive.
The car continued to move forward uncontrollably, charging straight ahead.
It seemed malfunctioning; even the steering wheel wasn’t very responsive.
Summer’s gaze fixed on the deep grass ahead, attempting an emergency stop, only to find it wouldn’t brake at all.
The car sped forward, wheels rolling over the ground with the sound of ice shards cracking, followed by the roaring sound of falling into the water echoing in the wild...
