The Greatest Showman - Chapter 231

[230 Passing by]

Renly would not deny his disappointment, and the faint disappointment surging in his heart caused his emotions to fall slowly.

He was moved, it was a fact, he was truly moved. The kiss just now was sweet and close, hot and surging, the throbbing deep inside was dancing, and every cell in the body was screaming. This is a very beautiful moment. Hearing Felicity’s refusal and the fact all of a sudden, his inner disappointment rose uncontrollably.

But he also knew that the heartbeat was deceptive, it might be real, it might be false, it might be Jacob’s heartbeat for Anna, it might be Renly’s heartbeat for Felicity, maybe it was just a moment The impulse may evolve into a long-term love, and everything needs to be proved by time. But, this in itself is one of the charms of the show, traveling between reality and fantasy.

He is still far from being a master of performances, and is still at the stage of groping by his own efforts. After the filming of “Buried Alive”, he couldn’t get out of the role for a long time, so he chose to freelance to divert his attention; now “Love Crazy” is the same.

Perhaps, this is a good thing, at least proving that both of them are good actors.

As for the loss of the heart, that is to miss.

Instead, Renly was a little fortunate that Felicity took the initiative to speak out, and before everything sprouted, she had returned to the original point; before the emotions became more intense, before the impulses became more wanton, before the emotions were completely lost. He doesn’t like the junior three, and he has no interest in becoming a junior.

However, today is only the first day of the launch of “Crazy Love”, and they will continue to cooperate in the future. If you take this matter too seriously and make a fuss, it will affect the cooperation between the two. So, Renly chose the simplest way, there was nothing to avoid, nothing to emphasize, just to pass it on with witty humor.

Undoubtedly, this approach worked. The ambiguous atmosphere between the two disappeared, but the embarrassing and jerky emotions gradually calmed down. Although neither of them noticed, their footsteps opened a distance of about one person, and it became like this without knowing it. The temperature of the lips and the confusion of the mind still brought alienation deep in the subconscious, but at least, The two started talking again. This is a good thing.

While looking at each other and laughing, that kind of tacit understanding slowly surged, but Renly took the lead to look away and looked straight ahead; Felicity also withdrew her gaze and looked at the crew members who were still running noisily in front of them. , leaving the two of them far behind. As if he didn’t notice the episode just now, nor did he notice the ups and downs between the electric light and flint.

“Is that the one you confessed to?” Renly spoke again, and took the initiative to break the silence. The silence and ambiguity of the night dissipated like a tide.

Felicity was stunned for a while, her mind did not turn around for a while, and after thinking about it carefully, she realized that Renly was talking about the conversation between the two people in the afternoon, and the object of her confession at Oxford University. Renly still remembered. “Yes, that’s the one.” That was her own real experience, not Anna’s.

“He’s a lucky man.” Renly said again, with a warm smile in his eyes, then turned around, took another step forward, and walked forward.

Felicity paused, then quickly chased after her, not knowing what to say, but said subconsciously, “Sorry.”

“No, no need to be sorry.” Renly chuckled lightly, like a cello His voice resonated in his chest. “I think this is a good thing. It shows that we are both dedicated actors. I think that after the film is shot, the audience will be moved. Everything that happened just now is just a continuation of the film, isn’t it?”

A day of intimacy, a day of getting closer, a day of exchange of ideas, when the farewell came, Jacob and Anna were reluctant to part at the door downstairs… Everything is so logical, but Drake’s camera did not explain In the follow-up exhibition, it did not explain whether the two people kissed, whether Jacob returned to Anna’s upstairs or turned to leave, and did not explain whether Jacob and Anna confessed again. Can’t help but start drawing.

So it makes sense that Jacob and Anna can’t help but kiss on the streets late at night, doesn’t it? This also means that it was not Felicity and Renly just now, but Jacob and Anna?

Her thoughts were surging, and Felicity could feel the temperature on her lips getting hot again. She subconsciously raised her fingertips, wanting to touch it, but just raised her right hand, she woke up and panicked. Put your fingers down again and squeeze your fists hard.

Looking at the shy but bold, throbbing but decisive Felicity in front of him, Renly lowered his eyes, concealed his emotions, shifted his gaze, and looked at the crew members in front of him, “What’s his name?

” Who?” Felicity’s heart was beating violently, and she seemed to be approaching Renly little by little, but her reason still pulled her back, thinking in her heart: It’s all just Anna, that’s all; Just a continuation of the movie, that’s all.

“That lucky man.” Renly said with a chuckle, his heart calmed down again, and there was a hint of lightness in his words, “Today is only the first day of the crew, and we need to continue working together for a while. , so I think, I need to get a shot of vaccination. Otherwise, next time the other party comes to the door, I don’t know what happened, which is the last thing I want to see.”

That half-joking remark made Felicity Ti relaxes again, and giggles, as Renly always does, and the calm humor makes the atmosphere immediately relaxed, “Don’t worry, he’s a pacifist, and he can’t beat you for sure.” Li Xiti’s brows also stretched out, and her tense emotions gradually relaxed, “Ed, his name is Ed.”

Yes, all the emotions just now were just a continuation of Anna. Now that she wakes up, everything becomes clear. Felicity put her hands behind her back, her mixed emotions gradually calmed down, and her hot brain gradually cooled down.

“That’s enough, I don’t need more information, otherwise it’s too weird.”

“It’s not weird at first, but when you say this, things are weird, right?”

“Thinking is weird, and what you see is naturally weird. I’m normal, so that means…”

“Hey, Renly-Hall! Don’t be confused!”

“Renly? Not Jacob now? So, you’re Felicity now? So, why have you been following me? We just met today, didn’t we?”

“Are you sure you’re not following me?”

…

Ambiguous/throbbing atmosphere accompanied by awkward and jerky atmosphere gradually between laughter and laughter Dissipated, the kiss remained on this late-night street forever, as if it had never been born; the cold moonlight spread in the slightly humid air, the scalding temperature gradually cooled down, and calm was restored, like a After the pond boiled, the cold and deep pond was quiet again, and there was nothing unusual on the calm water surface.

Renly and Felicity quickened their pace and caught up with the crew. Renly raised his voice and asked, “Drake, are we on our way to supper now? Or are we on our way back?

” Supper? Renly, are you crazy? An actress who eats a midnight snack is suicidal! How can we eat a midnight snack?” Jennifer’s poignant voice was merciless, and then another actress’s ally Felicity rang out. The cheering voice, “I really don’t understand the hard work of our actresses at all. Sure enough, men are all the same.”

“…Drake, then I’m going home, my place is in the opposite direction.”

“Bastard! Terrible. dude”…the curses came one after another.

The streets of Los Angeles in the early morning are wide and empty, with the starry sky as the background, as if the whole world can be embraced with open arms. A group of young people with movie dreams are taking solid steps towards their goals, one step, one footprint.

The “Crazy Love” crew set sail smoothly, without a grand opening ceremony, no noisy media interviews, or even an official announcement of the start. in production.

This crew, with an investment cost of only 250,000 yuan, did not attract any attention in the huge Hollywood. Every day, dozens of similar crews can be found to start shooting, but there may be less than one percent of them. Works can win the chance to be on the big screen.

So, even Renly, who just garnered a lot of attention in Toronto and Telluride, has not been able to attract the attention of the news media, let alone “Winter’s Bone” 6 Sundance 8 months ago, Jennifer The halo gathered on the body was not enough to make the reporters excited.

What’s more, there is always no shortage of news in Hollywood, gossip news emerges one after another, Toronto’s scandal about Natalie has not been further developed, and the infighting drama of “Degree and Passion 5” crew is enough to make the reporters very excited, not to mention Said that the curtain of the awards season has slowly kicked off, and the annual good show is on the stage again.

Who cares about a small crew like “Crazy Love”?

However, this allowed the crew to focus on their work and focus on filming. This is a good thing.

Again, it’s good news for Andy Rodgers. Everything is going according to plan, Renly is getting closer to the “Degree and Furious 5” crew bit by bit, but he needs Dwayne Johnson to hold on for a while, otherwise, even if “Degree and Furious / Passion 5” “In the end, I chose Renly, and now Renly is busy with the filming of “Crazy Love” and there is not enough schedule, so it is very likely that it will be cheaper for other new actors. In this Hollywood that eats people and doesn’t spit out bones, the competition is eye-catching. are everywhere.

Therefore, Andy sincerely prayed: Dawn, please persevere.
