Prompt

Eastern ancient-costume realistic film texture, warm yellow night-market lighting, real skin, hair and fabric textures, light comedic atmosphere; no CG look, no plastic feel. The entire piece is first-person POV: the camera is Zhao Mingcheng's eyes. No changes of shot size and no push or pull camera moves; changes in the picture come only from the characters approaching, the POV gaze turning and body movement. No background music, no song performance; keep only the live ambient sound of the night market: voices, footsteps and the light clatter of bamboo rings.

[Character Lock] POV = Zhao Mingcheng (heard but never seen; only his right hand and sleeve may enter the frame). Lead A: reference image 1. Supporting B: reference image 2 (never speaks throughout; only expressions and actions).

[Scene Lock] Ancient night-market street: several rows of warm yellow lanterns and light strings cross overhead, wooden shopfronts on the right, bluestone-slab path underfoot. On a straw mat at the roadside, clay figurines are neatly arranged in rows (small figures, small horses and small clay jars, one of which is a blue little figure), and the bamboo-woven rings are in A's hand.

[Spatial Relationship] POV stands in front of and to the side of the stall, separated from A and B by the straw mat: A is front-left of POV, B slightly behind A's side. POV never changes position; the two only move around their spots, and A takes a single small step toward POV.

[One Continuous Shot · Stage 1] [Camera] First-person POV: the camera is the character's eyes, so viewers see exactly what the character sees. POV stands still and looks level at A front-left and the straw mat, with a slight breath-like sway in the frame. [Image] A holds a bamboo ring, aims at the figurines on the mat and throws one ring. It lands on the empty straw mat beside a figurine, bounces away, and catches no figurine. A pouts and complains (A's line: 「这根本套不中嘛」). POV's off-screen voice responds (POV's line: 「你方法不对,我来」). A turns and glares at the camera; B covers her mouth and giggles behind her.

[Stage 2] [Camera] First-person POV: the camera is the character's eyes, so viewers see exactly what the character sees. A actively walks toward POV; she naturally grows larger in the frame, which is not a camera push. POV's gaze lifts slightly following her. [Image] A holds a stack of bamboo rings, walks up to the lens and offers a ring toward the camera (A's line: 「你套一个我看看」). POV's right hand extends from below the frame, takes the ring and pinches one held in the lower half of the frame. POV sets the terms (POV's line: 「那就说好,我套到的就归我,不许反悔」). A stares at the lens and readily agrees (A's line: 「没问题」), then laughs happily.

[Stage 3] [Camera] First-person POV: the camera is the character's eyes, so viewers see exactly what the character sees. POV's gaze moves from A's face to B at her side; the head turns slightly, bringing a small horizontal pan of the camera position. [Image] POV's right hand holding the ring slowly rises. It does not throw toward the mat; instead it gently drops the ring over the top of B's hair bun and holds it steady. B first freezes, eyes wide, then lowers her head and smiles with pressed lips, never speaking. POV's off-screen voice proudly announces (POV's line: 「套中了,那归我了」). A turns to look at B; her smile fades, her expression darkens, her cheeks puff up and she glares at the camera.

[Stage 4] [Camera] First-person POV: the camera is the character's eyes, so viewers see exactly what the character sees. Cause and effect is clear: A kicks toward the camera and one kick hits POV, shaking the camera violently so it tilts and falls. [Image] A, fuming, lifts a foot and kicks toward the camera; the embroidered shoe enlarges as it comes at the frame and strikes the lens. The image jolts sharply, the world spins, and the lanterns overhead stretch into a streak of light. The camera tips over toward the ground and the street scene, and the whole film ends in spinning blur.

[Continuity Lock] The bamboo ring has only three states: in A's hand, held in POV's hand, or on B's bun; no adding or removing. Once on B's bun, the ring stays on B's head throughout and never falls. A and B keep their positions; only A takes one small step toward POV. The order of lines and speakers is strictly locked; no lines are swapped between speakers. B never speaks.

[Negative Constraints] Do not show Zhao Mingcheng's face or full body; do not switch to a third-person camera; no push or pull camera moves, no change of shot size, no unmotivated shaking (the shake from the final collision is excluded); do not let any bamboo ring land on a figurine on the mat, A's opening throw must miss; do not let B speak; do not let the ring on B's head fall or disappear; no subtitles or watermarks; no background music.
