Poetry Against the Current [Entertainment]

In late October, "My Promise with Dad" started shooting in Beijing.Director Mu Qiuyun is an old-timer in the film industry and has many famous works.He is 72 years old this year. He spends most of his time planting flowers and raising birds at home, and occasionally comes out to film a few movies. He is in a semi-retired state.

It was the first time that everyone saw him in person at the opening ceremony. He was wearing a gray Chinese tunic suit and his snow-white hair was neatly combed back.

The crew all respected Mu Qiuyun very much and treated him like a living fossil.

Mu Qiuyun didn't treat himself as an old man, so he was very peaceful.He lives a regular life. He wakes up at 07 o'clock every morning, first does a set of Tai Chi in the yard, then has breakfast on time at 30 o'clock, and starts work at [-]:[-].

The crew rented a courtyard house for filming. Some flowers and plants were planted in the courtyard, and a cage of homing pigeons was raised.Every morning and evening, I let the pigeons fly out, and the whistle echoed in the wind, which made people feel peaceful and peaceful, as if this was my life for decades.

Tang Feng is an uninhibited artist in the play, and the crew notified him in advance to grow his hair and beard, and he would be styled when the time came.

Tang Feng was a bit slovenly when he lived at home before, and he had a month's worth of hair, and he could grab a large bunch of it with his hands.When he arrived at the set, the stylist permed his hair and trimmed his hair and beard.He had a parted messy bangs in front of his forehead, a small braid casually tied behind his head, and a well-groomed beard, giving him a yuppie look.

Lin He is an ordinary teacher, wearing a suit and silver-rimmed glasses, a very elegant young man.The screenwriter said with a smile that you are playing a Virgo, you are a bit of a clean freak and you are quite worry-free, look in the mirror to find your feelings when you have time.

It's okay for Lin He to play the teacher.Tang Feng felt that acting in this play was a challenge for him.He is not married yet, let alone has no children. It is really uncomfortable to play someone else's father for the first time.

Tang Feng's son is called Xiaoduo in the play. He is a seven-year-old boy. It is said that his family has a long history, and he is proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so he is very mature and stable, and looks like a young adult.

Although Tang Feng is not very used to this kind of relationship, but at his age, it is not impossible to have such a big child in his hometown.

He and Xiaoduo met on the set.He looked at Xiaoduo, Xiaoduo looked at him, the two stalemate for a while, Tang Feng felt that he should behave kindly.Before he could speak, Xiaoduo broke the silence first and called out, "Dad."

Tang Feng just took a sip of water and sprayed it with a puff.

Xiao Duo was sprayed with water all over his face and left crying.

Tang Feng felt that he was too clumsy, and he didn't know how to express his fatherly love.He went to ask Lin He what to do, Lin He said: "It's not easy to coax a child? Buy him some gifts, play with him, and listen to him patiently."

Tang Feng went to buy a few lollipops to carry with him, and searched for his godson everywhere on the set.As soon as Xiaoduo saw him, he covered his face and hid behind others, obviously his young heart was hurt.

Tang Feng squatted on the ground at eye level with Xiaoduo, passed the lollipop over, and said, "It's uncle's fault, I apologize to you."

Xiao Duo took it, and said with a little disgust: "Little girls only eat this, I am a man."

Tang Feng smiled and said, "What does that man like?"

Xiao Duo said a lot of terms that Tang Feng didn't understand, and he asked in a daze, "Are there any for sale?"

Xiaoduo said: "There are small shops."

Tang Feng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, let's go shopping."

He led Xiaoduo out, and when he came back, Xiaoduo was riding on his neck, holding a large bag of toys in his left hand, and a large fried squid in his right hand, with a satisfied look, apparently he had been bribed up.

It didn't take long for Tang Feng to get acquainted with Xiaoduo, and with Mu Qiuyun's guidance, the filming of the first few scenes went smoothly.

As a famous painter, Tang Feng is sought after by others, and he is proud of himself.Xiao Duo went to see the art exhibition, stopped in front of the painting and asked him: "Dad, can you teach me how to draw? I also want to be as good as you."

Tang Feng said: "Okay, Dad will teach you. As long as you work hard, you will definitely become a great painter in the future."

Xiao Duo was very happy, stretched out his hand and said, "Pull the hook."

Tang Feng hooked his little finger, sealed it with his thumb, and kissed his forehead.Xiaoduo laughed like a flower, at this time he was still a very happy little boy.

Half a month later, Tang Feng was in a car accident, fractured his right hand, and was sent to the hospital.

After the plaster cast was removed, Tang Feng found that his right hand could no longer move freely.He picked up the brush, which trembled in his hand.His right arm was stiff, and he tried to draw a few strokes, but found that the lines were distorted and completely out of his control.Annoyed, he threw the brushes and paints to the ground.

The door opened and his wife looked at him worriedly and said, "Are you okay?"

Tang Feng stared at the distorted lines on the canvas, but did not speak.

His wife came over to comfort him.Tang Feng murmured: "I'm done, I'm completely useless."

His wife hugged him from behind and said softly: "Don't worry, you will be fine."

Tang Feng was silent.There are heavy curtains hanging by the window, and only a few rays of light come in and fall on the canvas.They stood in the shadows, and a gloomy atmosphere spread.The light seemed to be very close to them, but it shone on the twisted reality.

He lost the ability to paint.

After filming for a week, Mu Qiuyun said that Tang Feng is a very hardworking actor, and he quickly got into the role, saying that he has a spirit of concentration that is very rare.Tang Feng was a little apprehensive and happy to be recognized by his seniors.

Mu Qiuyun's praise of Tang Feng was just in passing, but mainly because he felt that Lin He's modest and easy-going personality was very suitable for him.When he was filming, Lin He often watched on the sidelines.Mu Qiuyun found out that he was interested in the director's work, so he showed him the storyboard book.Lin He watched it very seriously, took a small notebook to write down his experience, and designed several storyboards according to his own ideas.

Mu Qiuyun took his little notebook and flipped through it, looked at the storyboard he designed, and said with a smile: "Young man is quite thoughtful. You have done so much homework, do you want to be a director?"

Lin He was a little embarrassed, and said, "I like making movies. But I don't have enough education, and my education level is too low."

Mu Qiuyun smiled and said: "In our era, there were not many directors with major education backgrounds, and they all came from apprenticeships. I took the college entrance examination in 30, and I was [-] years old that year. Isn't this also a talent? You If you are young, you can learn if you want to learn, there is no need to look forward and backward."

Lin He was thoughtful.Mu Qiuyun said: "Life is your own, you can live it as you want. I think you are quite talented, if you need help, you can contact me at any time."

Lin He received his encouragement, and his heart surged with vitality, and he was more confident than before.

On this day, the head teacher played by Lin He was photographed holding a parent-teacher meeting. Xiao Duo's father was drunk at home, and the child's mother left the family because she was disappointed with her husband.No one came to Xiaoduo's parent meeting.When Lin He asked, Xiao Duo was vague and didn't answer why his parents didn't come.

On the weekend, Lin He visited his home and found that Xiaoduo's house was piled up with garbage, and the house smelled like alcohol.

Tang Feng was lying in the studio, motionless, like a dead man.

Lin He was taken aback and thought he was killed.Tang Feng let out a sigh of relief and snored, so he fell asleep.

At this time, Xiaoduo bought pancakes and came back with a large bag of instant noodles in his other hand.He didn't comb his hair or wash his face, and at such a young age, he looked hopeless.

When Xiaoduo saw the class teacher, he was a little surprised. He stood at attention and gave a team salute, and said, "Hi teacher, what are you doing here?"

Lin He stepped on a mineral water bottle, and it creaked, waking Tang Feng up.Lin He said, "I'm here to visit."

Tang Feng rubbed his eyes and got up.Xiaoduo picked up the wine bottles on the table and threw them into the trash can, put down the pancakes and instant noodles, and said, "Dad, it's time to eat."

Tang Feng recognized the head teacher, went up to shake hands with him, and said, "Hello, Teacher Lin."

Lin He reluctantly shook hands with the man who smelled of alcohol, and asked him seriously why he didn't go to the parent-teacher meeting yesterday, and asked where the child's mother was.Tang Feng felt that these questions were too heart-wrenching, so he didn't answer them at all.

Xiao Duo quietly pulled the hem of Lin He's clothes behind him, and said, "Teacher, don't ask any more. Mom and Dad had a fight, and Mom won't come back until her anger subsides."

Tang Feng boiled water to make tea for Lin He, and asked him to sit down.Lin He threw off a few clothes and sat on the sofa. There was a groaning sound under his buttocks. He was startled, and reached out to find a screaming chicken.

Tang Feng reprimanded: "I told you not to throw things around. If you don't listen, you're hurting someone! Take it away quickly."

Xiao Duo resentfully took the toy back to his room.Lin He looked around and felt that Tang Feng had no right to despise his son's sloppiness. His living environment could already be named the king of sloppy of the year.

Under Lin He's condemning eyes, Tang Feng realized that the sanitary condition of his home was worrying.He silently picked up the garbage, threw the dirty clothes into the washing machine, and began to wash the clothes rumblingly.

Xiaoduo sat on the sofa and ate pancakes.Tang Feng took out two cartons of milk and stuffed them into the microwave.Lin He quickly snatched it from him, and said, "The food in the airtight package cannot be heated in a microwave oven. Don't you know that it will explode?"

Tang Feng looked blank and said, "Really?"

Lin He was really convinced by him. He went to the kitchen to find a special bowl for the microwave oven. He opened the milk and poured it into it to heat it up. He poured a glass for each of them.

The washing machine in the toilet made a creaking sound, like the moaning/groaning of a dying monster.

Lin He went over and saw that the washing machine was so full that the drum couldn't even turn.There is a lot of white foam coming out of the washing machine, and it keeps pouring out.Lin He quickly pressed the pause button, and asked in surprise, "How much washing powder did you put?"

Tang Feng said, "Half a bag." After thinking about it, he explained, "I'm afraid it won't be clean."

Lin He was a little shocked.He opened the lid, took out half of the clothes, drained more than half of the foamy water, then added water again, and washed the clothes in batches.

During this period, Tang Feng was watching from the side all the time, and he said convincingly, "Mr. Lin is really amazing, he can do anything."

Lin He remembered that he was a teacher and not a housekeeper.He said angrily: "You have to be a bit responsible as a parent. I don't care what problems you have at work, but it can't affect your children's study and life. Xiaoduo's condition is very bad recently, his grades have been declining, and his relationship with his classmates Not too good..."

Tang Feng listened to his chanting, his expression was very numb.He has lost hope in life.His wife is gone, what Lin He said has no effect on him.

Lin He scolded him badly, and Xiao Duo stood worriedly at the door and looked at them with pitiful eyes.Lin He felt a little uncomfortable, sighed and said: "You can't eat instant noodles all the time. You go buy some food, and cook a good meal for the children at noon."

Tang Feng didn't say anything, put on his coat, and went out with the garbage.After a while, he bought some vegetables, tofu and two catties of pork ribs and came back.Lin He said: "That's right, live seriously and cook well."

Tang Feng said, "I don't know how to cook."

Xiao Duo confirmed: "He can't. He can only make instant noodles and serve quick-frozen dumplings."

Lin He broke down a bit.He pushed Tang Feng into the kitchen, asked him to put on an apron, and said, "I'll teach you. First put the ribs in the pot and pump the water, and then fish out when the blood foams. Then cut the onion, ginger, and garlic into the pot, put the ribs in Go in, add water, soy sauce, sugar, star anise, tangerine peel and hawthorn and simmer for four to 10 minutes..."

Under his guidance, Tang Feng cooked pork ribs in braised sauce, stir-fried Chinese cabbage, and stewed a pot of rice.The three of them gathered around the steaming hot meal, and it felt pretty good.Tang Feng took out a bottle of Erguotou from under the bed, unscrewed the cap and prepared to drink.Lin He grabbed it and threw it into the trash can for him.

Tang Feng was a little annoyed, and said, "What are you doing?"

Lin He looked at him expressionlessly, and said, "How can you take care of your children when you drink all day like this?"

Tang Feng was silent for a long time, feeling that he was in the wrong, he lowered his head and began to chop white rice.Xiao Duo didn't like Tang Feng drinking too much, so he secretly compared thumbs up with Lin He under the table.Lin He picked up a piece of ribs for him and said, "Eat more meat, you are growing."

Xiao Duo has never eaten such a sumptuous meal since his mother left, and he is full of admiration and gratitude to Lin He, wishing that he would come to visit his home every day.

Lin He felt that their father and son's home was simply a whirlpool, and he was swept into an absurd world as soon as he stepped in, which simply exceeded his imagination.

After lunch, Lin He bid farewell and came out.Tang Feng was very grateful to him, held his hand and said, "Thank you, Mr. Lin, for coming here often when I'm free."

Lin He's face was ashen, and he thought: "Don't worry, I will never come again."

The director shouted Ka and said, "Very good, Xiao Duo performed very well. Xiao Tang and Lin He are also very good, they cooperate very well, keep it up."

Mu Qiuyun's filming is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and it's common to shoot seven or eight shots in one shot.He said that there is no rush for art, even if it is a children's play, it must be worthy of the small audience.

He also said that actors must trust each other and have an overall concept.If everyone refuses to accept each other and only thinks about how to overwhelm each other, will the works produced be good-looking?

He said that the relationship between Tang Feng and Lin He was good, and it was good to be able to achieve each other mentally.

Tang Feng and Lin He glanced at each other, a little embarrassed by the compliment, and both grinned.

Tang Feng got up early that day, and while walking under the hotel, he ran into Mu Qiuyun who was doing Tai Chi.Mu Qiuyun was leading Lin He to practice Taijiquan, and said in a long voice: "The white crane spreads its wings—"

Lin He behaved well, saw Tang Feng, and shouted: "You come together too."

Tang Feng had nothing to do, so he followed the old man, from the white crane spreading its wings to the seabed needle, but he really couldn't remember the rest.He quietly asked Lin He: "Do you know it?"

Lin He shook his head.Mu Qiuyun finished a set of 24-style Taijiquan, closed his eyes for a moment, and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't remember it, you will remember it after practicing every day."

The old man went to have breakfast after punching.Tang Feng asked Lin He how long he had been studying.Lin He said that it just started yesterday, but you came today.The two chatted and went to eat, and continued filming after breakfast.The plot progresses to Lin He's home visit again, and discovers that Tang Feng is unyielding, so he takes the child and drags him, and the three of them go to the park to exercise together.

Teacher Lin took them to exercise for two days, and then stopped participating because he was busy with work, but threatened to check and accept their exercise results in a month.

Following the teacher's instructions, Xiao Duo woke Tang Feng up at six o'clock every day, dragged him out to run laps, and exercised with him when he had time.Tang Feng lifted the big dumbbell, Xiao Duo lifted the small dumbbell, and the two squeezed the gripper together.Accompanied by his son in rehabilitation, his mental state gradually improved, he quit drinking, and his life began to change for the better.

Mu Qiuyun recommended several books to Lin He for studying directing.Lin He bought them all back and looked at them very seriously.

He watched movies in the hotel when he was free.The curtains were drawn in the room, it was pitch black, and the light radiated from the screen and shone on his face.He looked focused, like a serious child.

Tang Feng watched movies with him, and sometimes he fell asleep while sitting next to him. When he woke up, he found Lin He was still watching.Lin He's appearance was a little strange to him.He seemed to be standing in an unreachable place, intently pursuing his light.

Tang Feng thought it was very good of him.If possible, it would be better for him to choose this path.

The filming of the film went smoothly. When Tang Feng learned a set of 24 Taijiquan with Mu Qiuyun, the filming also came to an end.Tang Feng and Xiaoduo collaborated on a painting, which won a grand prize.He fulfilled his promise to Xiaoduo.His wife also came back, and the three lived a happy life again.

The movie has to wait for the Spring Festival to be released. If the whole family goes to the cinema together during the Chinese New Year, they should choose this children's movie.

Hanhai International's publicity group is still very powerful, and before it was released, they slammed Tang Feng's acting skills, almost whitewashing his image of playing a villain since his debut.

Li Shuangyue strikes while the iron is hot, and accepts a reality show for him, the program is called "Our Daily".This time, instead of living in the wild, I will live in the city for a week.All the people who go there are celebrities, and they only give a little money at the beginning, so that people can find a way to survive in a strange city.

Tang Feng asked Lin He if he would go.Li Shuangyue said indifferently: "I have other jobs for him, this time you go with Bai Yize."

Tang Feng knew that Lin He had offended Boss Li several times, and he was about to be put in the cold by her.He wanted to intercede for Lin He, Li Shuangyue said: "I know what you want to say. Lin He can't always bind you, the two of you will develop separately sooner or later. Listen to the company's arrangement, and I will not treat you badly."

Seeing Li Shuangyue's firm attitude, Tang Feng couldn't say anything.He took his leave and came out, and saw Bai Yize coming over.Bai Yize was handsome, his eyes curved into two crescents when he smiled, and he said in a friendly way: "Brother Tang, long time no see, you were busy a while ago, weren't you?"

Tang Feng said: "It's okay. Mr. Li called you?"

Bai Yize smiled and said, "Yes, I heard that we are going to be on a reality show, and we are going to cooperate. Please give me your advice."

Tang Feng said: "Don't dare to be, it's to help each other."

When Bai Yize entered the office, Tang Feng thought to himself: "He just filmed an idol drama a while ago, attracted a group of girlfriend fans, and received several endorsements. He is now Li Shuangyue's favorite, it seems that Li Shuangyue wants him to replace him. It's Lin He."
