Director Zhang knew he was asking a lot from Xue Lingling.
Xue Lingling was selected from many candidates, has kept up her dance skills over the years, is diligent, and has solid acting skills. Although her appearance isn't particularly outstanding, it's pretty good.
Now, even this rare young talented actress is complaining, which shows how difficult this stunt scene is.
"Lingling," Director Zhang sighed, "what this scene lacks is that kind of momentum, that feeling of going all out and completely letting go. It's safe here, I promise you! There's a full protective net below, five layers in total! Even the edges sticking out around the cliff are wrapped in sponge, we spent a lot for this... Think it over, you'll definitely nail it in one take!"
Xue Lingling wore a distressed expression.
She knew the crew got her high-priced insurance, there are layer upon layer of protective nets in the clouds, and her harness was checked multiple times, something no crew had done before.
