Crossover Actors - Chapter 22
[Chapter 22]
Qu Yanting withdrew his arms from the table, and his sleeves were stained with dust. He raised his forearm and patted it lightly, soiling his hands. With his actions, he pretended not to hear Lu Wen’s question.
Rao is that Lu Wen’s nerves are thicker than the Huabiao of the Forbidden City, and he can see that Qu Yanting is avoiding. Without further questioning, he walked under the vine and handed a pack of soft-skin wipes to his face.
Qu Yanting caught it and took out a sheet to wipe his hands. Lu Wen sat down on the other chair with his waist hanging in the air, his shoulders resting on the back of the chair, in a tired slumped posture.
The broken chair was uncomfortable, Qu Yanting said: “There is still a play, let’s go and rest for a while.”
Lu Wen said, “It’s resting.”
In fact, physical fatigue is nothing, mainly the void of the mind, Lu Wen touches his face from time to time , Although the filming is over, I always feel that there are tears in the corners of my eyes.
Qu Yanting understands this situation. The actor has completely entered the state of the role, and his emotions are ups and downs. After that, he needs time to get away. Everyone’s degree is different.
When he studied directing, he learned how to communicate between directors and actors. In a sense, the director is like the actor’s psychiatrist, who adjusts and intervenes in the actor’s state at any time before, during and after the shooting.
Qu Yanting was not sure whether Lu Wen was willing to talk to him, so he threw a question to try: “Ren Shu said, this is your first time filming a crying scene seriously?
” It’s not just filming, it’s the first time I’ve cried like this in my life.” With
that expression not like a lie, Qu Yanting said, “It means you’re doing well.”
Lu Wen admitted this: “So I was very unconfident before filming, I was afraid of acting. It’s not good. It doesn’t matter if I get scolded or not, it’s mainly because everyone stayed with me all night, I’m ashamed.”
“The filming is over now.” Qu Yanting used praise to mobilize Lu Wen’s emotions, “You acted very well.”
Lu Wen really couldn’t bear it. Staying, she said in a daze: “Everyone applauds all the directors.”
Qu Yanting laughed and stepped up: “You acted very well, unexpectedly well.”
Lu Wen grinned contentedly and smiled to himself. After a while, the smile condensed a little, and he closed his mouth, staring at the layer of dust on the table and fell silent.
After a long while, he confessed: “Actually, I cheated.”
Qu Yanting was puzzled: “What?”
Lu Wen said, “When I mentioned my father who passed away, at that time, I thought of my mother.”
Qu Yanting remembered that Lu Wen said that in a single-parent family Growing up, thinking of his mother through the deceased father Ye shows that Lu Wen’s mother is no longer there.
He saves others by himself, or because of his self-cultivation, he will never ask questions.
And Lu Wen said that he was much more happy, and unconsciously entered a state of talking: “My mother had a difficult labor when she gave birth to me. I haven’t seen her, only seen her photos. At that time… I remembered her anyway.”
“You didn’t cheat . “Qu Yanting said softly, “It’s your mother who is helping you.”
Lu Wen’s expression was dazed for a moment, and he felt the words of Qu Yanting, and suddenly, as if the knot in his heart had been untied, he completely relaxed.
Lu Wen hadn’t forgotten about Qu Yanting sitting here alone, he went back around and wondered if Qu Yanting also had a knot in his heart.
“You were in a bad mood just now?”
“No.”
“Why not, you can tell me.”
“Why?”
“I told you.”
“You said it on your own initiative.
” Yes .”
“I induce you to do something else, what are you doing?”
Lu Wen was not good at speaking, so he choked to death after a few words. He was kind and wanted to act as a radio confidant, or a tree hole, but obviously Qu Yanting didn’t need it.
He felt that no matter what kind of emotion Qu Yanting was, he always showed a superficial layer and buried deep in his heart. He has no way to detect, nor a reasonable qualification.
Lu Wen was deflated and took the wet tissue back angrily: “I won’t return it to me when I run out of it, I still have to use it.”
Although Qu Yanting did not talk about it, he successfully put his mind behind him and began to bully people: “You use Okay, two more wipes, but now it’s too handsome to wipe hyaluronic acid.”
Lu Wen immediately took out his phone, turned on the front camera, and saw it clearly under the death light of a broken light bulb. His entire face was swollen from crying, not to mention his eyes, his double eyelids were as wide as two knife-cut faces.
“Fuck!” Lu Wen stood up in shock, “I’m more sad than Ye Shan!”
Qu Yanting was joking, but he didn’t expect that this person’s idol burden was quite heavy. Lu Wen walked away and said as he walked, “I’m going to put on the mask, I’ll take it off first.”
“What?” Qu Yanting muttered, “It’s enough for the actors to act well.”
Lu Wen braked suddenly and stopped solemnly. Statement: “I am a handsome guy first, and then an actor.”
Qu Yanting is rarely at a loss for words. The most indispensable thing in the entertainment industry is a vase. Every vase tries to prove that he is a qualified actor. There is probably something wrong with his actor. .
He didn’t care and said, “What’s the use of being handsome.”
Lu Wen snorted coldly, secretly dismantling: “Why is it useless, some people like handsome guys. Once they like them, they will give the filming and resources. I don’t know. How cool.”
Qu Yanting understood the overtones, and asked, “Have you met such a person?”
Lu Wen slandered, you are pretending to be the same. He replied: “I met, it’s in our crew.”
Qu Yanting was surprised. When he recovered, Lu Wen had already run away. He stayed under the vines, thinking wildly, and would not go back until the next scene was filmed.
Still in bedroom 302.
Tao Meifan finished work, and the next one is Lu Wen’s one-man show. The night Ye Shan and Ye Mu clashed, in the middle of the morning, Ye Shan dreamed of her dead father and woke up from the dream.
Lu Wen put on pure cotton shorts and a vest, and lay on the bed. It has been two months since the whole set was completed.
Ren Shu sat beside the bed: “Little Lu, you are too stiff.”
Lu Wen didn’t move: “Yeah.”
“You bastard, move.” Ren Shu lifted the quilt, revealing Lu Wen’s straight legs, help He poses, “Do you usually sleep like this? Don’t you get cramps?”
Qu Yanting arrived at the door and paused. He saw Ren Shu break Lu Wen’s knees and bend Lu Wen’s calf at an angle. He stared at the bedside, Walk silently to your seat.
Ren Shu said, “Little Lu, lie down.”
Lu Wen slid into the bed, afraid that the pillowcase would rub against his face, so he turned his back up. The quilt was draped over his chest, and his shoulders and arms were exposed to the air.
He asked, “Director, is my face still swollen?”
Ren Shu glanced at Lu Wen, his face was okay, but his eyes were still red and swollen, which would not look good in close-up shots. He asked his assistant to bring an ice pack, put it on Lu Wen’s eyelids, and compress it for a while.
Lu Wen: “Director, make me look handsome.”
“It’s simple.” If the acting is bad, Ren Shu will get angry, but if the acting is good, he will give a good face
. Cut from the side of the bed, and the position of the characters should be well controlled. Ren Shu grabbed Lu Wen’s bare/bared shoulder, twisted it over and fiddled with it to find the best angle.
Lu Wen turned over and was dizzy, humming.
Qu Yanting watched with cold eyes, holding the cold strong tea in his hand, frowning, very shallow,
finding a good angle, the substitute was seated on the upper bunk, Ren Shu returned to his seat, and only then did he see Qu Yanting coming back. He asked, “Where did you go around?”
“It’s breathable.” Qu Yanting said, looking at the other person’s face from the corner of his eye, exhausted and unable to hide his good mood, “What are you happy about?”
Ren Shu replied: “What else can I be happy about being a director, the filming went well. The last scene Xiao Lu’s acting is very good, you have seen it, right?”
Qu Yanting said, “I don’t know how this scene will be.”
“It should be fine.” Ren Shu said, “Ye Shan’s audition clip is this scene.”
Inside the room Without turning on the lights, the lighting engineer set the lights outside the window, white, like the moonlight pouring in. The camera cuts to the upper bunk first, Ye Xiaowu is lying on the bed and sleeping soundly, with one leg stretched out and his calf hanging in the air.
Ye Shan lay flat on the bottom bunk, with her upper body tilted, her left cheek resting on the pillow. There was a glistening layer of sweat on his forehead, his lips slightly opened, panting, tossing and turning between the mattresses.
Suddenly, Ye Shan opened her eyes and woke up from her dream.
Xu is because of what Ye Mu said, he dreamed of his father who had been away for ten years.
Ye Shan tightened the quilt and stared at the top bunk for a long time. As soon as he closed his eyes, the images in the dream were overwhelming, and he could no longer fall asleep.
After wiping away the cold sweat, Ye Shan sat up, got out of bed gently, tucked Ye Xiaowu’s legs back, and tucked the quilt for him.
He sat down at the table, turned on the lamp, and the alarm clock showed 3:30 in the morning. The notebook has been shredded, and there is no need to record any more. He sat in a chair in a daze.
After a long time, as if she had gathered enough courage, Ye Shan bent over and pulled open the drawer on the bottom floor, which contained an old faded envelope.
Ye Shan took out the envelope, opened it carefully, and pulled out an old photo and two movie tickets.
The years have passed, the ticket stubs are yellowed and brittle, and the printed handwriting has become blurred. This was bought by Father Ye before his death. The name of the movie is “Echo from Heaven”.
Ye Shan watched for a while, put down the movie ticket, and picked up the old photo of Ye’s father.
The scene at this time coincides with the audition clip. In the monitor screen, Lu Wen holds the photo in both hands, leaning on the back of the chair, and the camera cuts a close-up from the side.
Ren Shu told Qu Yanting that during the audition, 80% of the actors cried, ranging from tears to wailing, and those who couldn’t cry just bared their teeth.
His comment at the time was only one sentence: Substitute Ye Shan, aren’t you afraid of waking Ye Xiaowu up?
Qu Yanting looked at the screen. In the close-up, Lu Wen was sitting on a chair, bowing slightly, physically and mentally relaxed. He looked at the photo quietly, without a trace of pain on his face, his eyebrows, his eyes, the corners of his lips, and the corners of his mouth were all peaceful in the faint moonlight.
After a long shot, Qu Yanting found that Lu Wen hadn’t blinked from beginning to end.
After a long time, Lu Wen pursed his lips and seemed to smile.
He rubbed the edge of the photo with his fingertips, then moved to the portrait, and when he was about to touch Father Ye’s face, he stopped, his fingertips trembled, and he finally retracted his hand timidly.
Lu Wen pressed the photos and movie tickets together, moving slowly, looking so reluctant. He packed it up and put it back in the drawer, raised his face to face the window, his eyes that had not blinked finally felt sour, and two mists filled him, and two lines of hot water fell from the end of his eyes.
When Qu Yanting’s arm became hot, Ren Shu leaned over and whispered to him, “You understand why I chose him in the first place.”
Understand, Qu Yanting understood it from the last scene.
Ren Shu suppressed his excitement, like a bet: “Xiao Luzhao’s momentum and level of development will not worry about no filming or resources in the future.”
Suddenly, Qu Yanting’s expression changed slightly: “So sure?”
Ren Shu was excited, He boasted: “At least I admire him, and am I a somewhat famous director?” There
was a brief silence.
“Ren Shu.”
“What’s wrong?”
Qu Yanting asked hesitantly: “…Do you like handsome guys?”
Ren Shu: “Ah?”
