red dust upside down

Li Shang went back to continue recording. He always kept what he said. Since Su Rong was in charge, of course he dared to act recklessly. After sitting down, he was the first to ask, from that fan, with a little expectation: "Your ideal girl What does it look like? You can’t give an official answer, but you need to be specific about your physical appearance and personality traits.”

Li Shang glanced at her and said calmly, "How do you know it must be a girl?"

The entire studio was silent for a moment, and then there was an uproar. Lin Kou glanced at Su Rong with a little surprise. Su Rong's ears were red, but his expression was still calm: "This part will be accompanied by a booing background sound, making it a joke. As a result, I can post the edited film only after watching it.”

"We're an independent show..."

"This is Li Shang. You decide whether to broadcast it or not."

"Post-effects can be added, but key answers cannot be cut."

"make a deal."

In fact, Su Rong wasn't worried that Li Shang had anything to cut. Li Shang's IQ was no lower than Lin Kou's, and he couldn't do really stupid things. He was good and brilliant, and bad and bad.So luxury brands like him, because the style is here, just like the show clothes of top brands, there is only the difference between beauty and ugliness, there is no low.

Sure enough, Heizi had a few difficult questions, asking about his private life, about getting along with others, and about Li Rui. He said "I don't want to say" in three words. The person who asked the questions might be a member of the program team, who frequently looked back at the camera as if asking for help. At the penultimate one, he asked Lu He again, and Li Shang raised his eyebrows.

The question is "Actually, you and Lu He are really at odds, it's not an editing effect, right?"

He said, "Yes."

"why?"

Li Shang's answer was to lean forward directly, and the girl was taken aback, but Li Shang just nodded calmly on the question sheet in her hand.

"That question wasn't on the list," he said, turning to the fan: "It's your turn to ask."

The tone of the fans changed, and after a while, they asked: "If one day you don't become a star, what will you do?"

The idol’s character design is always a paradox. Everyone knows that perfect things are not real. Fans always want to get closer to the idol. They are almost piously shouting “Let me see the real you, I don’t mind, I love all your flaws", that's why so many personas are created to deal with this emotion, just to create a little illusory sense of reality.Just like the makeup technique, after covering all the blemishes, it is really contradictory to add a few freckles.

This is probably the most nutritious question about fans all night, but Li Shang still didn't think about it.

"I'll buy a boat, go out to sea, go as far as I can go, and park there."

"and then?"

"Then lie on the deck and bask in the sun, and come back after the supplies run out."

"Without anyone?" The fans couldn't believe it, and asked again: "Not even the person you like?"

Li Shang did not remind her this time that the problem was not on the list.In fact, this question is actually easy to answer. On the premise of not being a star, it is allowed to bring someone you like, and even imagine how many children you will have after marriage. The tentacles of fan girlfriend complex cannot reach here.If some unfeminine persona is set up on this kind of issue, it will look too fake, which is precisely the problem of increasing the sense of reality.

But no one is as real as Li Shang.

His face was indifferent, and no one could doubt that this expression was for business.

"No." He said.

In fact, this alone is not enough to make this interview famous in history. Even if Heizi’s last question is still sharp, he asked whether he thought that one day he would not be popular, there would be no traffic, and he would not leave any good works with weight , how to face this result.

Li Shang answered very calmly: "There are many factors that determine whether a work is a good work. I just need to do my job well. I have my original intention in entering the entertainment industry. As long as I am moving towards this goal, it will be fine." Sorry."

It's considered that he had a sense of propriety and didn't tell his original intention - even though he said to Su Rong more than once that he entered the entertainment circle to make money.

Originally, this interview was considered a success. As Su Rong expected, it was the first step to cushion the landing. Of course, the impact was inevitable—just like opening a parachute during a fall. No matter how careful you are, the first step will always be a shock. There was a sudden pause, but he didn't expect Lin Kou to stand up.

In fact, it was the host who came over to make a summary speech at the very beginning. It can be seen that he has a deep prejudice against the current traffic. After two clichés, he said: "Although limited by the situation and problems of the question, it is impossible to discover the deepest heart of Li businessmen. The idea of ​​​​…”

"Do you want to dig it out?" Li Shang asked him.

He actually asked the host's question in the exact tone of the host's sentences. His expression was indifferent, and the host was stunned for a while. After all, he is a broadcast host, and he is better at mouthpieces, not knives and pens. He was stunned for a while after reading too many manuscripts. I was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Then what do you think of the popular 'little fresh meat' image?"

"Is Xiaoxianrou an adjective, or a category?"

"Of course it's classified."

"Then in this context, what is your classification, Mr. Ke?" Li Shang raised the corner of his mouth and asked him, "Is it old bacon?"

In fact, these hosts who claim to be from a major class are sometimes the same as those old actors who eat and sleep every day and scold Xiao Xianrou. the shock.It took a while to calm down and smiled: "As I said, this is the current popular culture. You are all fans' hearts. Someone like me who is unsightly is definitely not a meat. It's too late for fans to hate me." .”

"It's unsightly, and it's not meat." Li Shang looked at him with a sideways smile with his pockets in his pockets: "So, is it that Mr. Ke is in the water?"

The fans who approached him were the first to laugh. Amidst the laughter, Li Shang patted the host's arm very calmly, and said lightly, "Just kidding, Mr. Ke, don't mind."

The host also laughed, expressing that he would not mind. It turns out that Li Shang is so funny and humorous. No wonder girls like his style so much now. They block three or four floors outside the TV station, crying and shouting to marry him.

"We need to add a few canned laughter to this place." Su Rong was not affected at all, and even negotiated with Lin Kou: "Or you can cut the entire paragraph."

Lin Kouxin was not here at all, and said something to the on-site director directly. The director next to him held up a sign, and the host took a look and called for a timeout.The makeup artist came up with something and tied up Lin Kou's curly hair.

"I will do the final interview." Lin Kou asked Su Rong, "Do you mind?"

There is a short interview at the end of the show, which is usually done by the host, and most of the procedures are due to the fact that the people who come are veterans. Although there are things to dig, but they have been interviewed all year round, and they already have a way to deal with it.But today, Li Shang seemed to be revealing his flaws. Lin Kou was born in a talk show, so he couldn't help it.

The so-called "literati" in these circles, whether they are behind the scenes, great screenwriters and directors, have ambiguous and complicated attitudes towards real traffic stars, with prejudices of "little fresh meat" and "vase", but also Don't let them go.After all, the creative motivation has always revolved around "beauties". On the one hand, I dislike people as vases without souls, and on the other hand, I hope that I can see his soul.In the heyday of Hong Kong movies, there were more talents than there are now, and all of them were compatible with business and art. The songs and movie scripts they wrote were classics, and they all fell under the pomegranate skirts of those "vase" actresses.

Lin Kou took her notebook, sat down on a chair, and asked politely, "Li Shang, do you mind if I do this interview?"

"do not mind."

"Actually, I've always wanted to ask you traffic stars a question. How do you get along with your own aura? I read a story back then, saying that Winora Reid is the darling of the entire Hollywood. People call her an elf, an angel." , the princess, is popular all over the United States and is very popular, but at the same time she is on the verge of collapse. Once and Johnny Depp passed her own huge billboard, and seeing herself on it, she suddenly collapsed and couldn't help herself. , and didn’t cry until Johnny Depp stuck his fingers into her throat to make her vomit.” Lin Kou laid the groundwork for a long time, and finally got to the point: “We can easily find that many stars have this kind of psychological dilemma, such as Marilyn Dream Lu, even though she is rated as the sexiest woman in the world, she still feels extremely insecure in her heart. This is related to her experience of being abandoned by more than a dozen families in her childhood. The lack of her original family and the pursuit of the whole world as an adult It often tears people's hearts. In Zhou Zixiang's words, it is called causing cognitive confusion. The most common ones are drug abuse and self-destructive tendencies. Zhou Zixiang's later car accident also illustrates this point. Do you think you also have What about this tendency?"

In fact, the moment Zhou Zixiang's name came out, Su Rong knew that there was a high probability that this interview would not be released. It is always a truth in the world that the dead are the most important. If this sentence was released, Zhou Zixiang's fans would tear Lin Kou apart.

"This phenomenon is very interesting." Li Shang said calmly: "But it seems that not every star will do this."

"Then do you think you are one of them?" Lin Kou asked: "As far as I know, you have always had some problems with establishing intimate relationships with people."

Su Rong's first reaction was to immediately clear the scene, take away the negatives of this shooting, and at the same time ask Luo Wei to sort out a confidentiality responsibility statement and give it to Lin Kou to sign.Although it is not a secret that Li Shang's private life is chaotic in the circle, no one with any status has ever dared to say this in public, not even those marketing accounts who are on the fringes of the entertainment industry dare to spread the word , after all, Rita has always been ruthless, she sees one sue the other, limits the number of people, and directly destroys other people's jobs.

The second reaction is how many rumors Huang Lei has spread outside the world. Even Lin Kou, who is not well-informed, knows about his "sad relationship" with Li Shang.No wonder I have always had a complicated attitude when I approached myself.

Fortunately, Li Shang was not angry.

"Does Teacher Lin think that everyone needs intimacy?" He asked rhetorically.

"Of course I respect singleness in any situation, but I think everyone needs to establish at least one kind of intimate relationship, to give love and to be loved. This is also the reason why people with problems in their original families are more likely to be desperate for their relationship. The longing for love is Human nature."

Li Shang laughed.

There are often prodigal sons in movies, but few of them play well, because most of the young and beautiful actors act too frivolously and are not convincing, like a rebellious period robbing attention.Li Shang's demeanor as a prodigal son is particularly appropriate, because he really doesn't believe this, and almost scoffs at it.

"Why did Teacher Lin suddenly care about me?" He asked with a smile.

Su Rong stood behind the camera, his heart skipped a beat. He was too familiar with Li Shang, and Li Shang always behaved like this, retreating to advance, showing a little humanity, giving you the illusion of finding a flaw.

Lin Kou was really fooled, and said frankly, "I just found out today that you are a smart young man, so I don't understand."

It's always like this, of course there are beautiful people who are willing to degenerate, but why do beautiful and smart people become prodigal sons, mess up their private lives, talk indifferently, become the most commercial idols, and shoot the most bloody scenes.Why is there no spiritual pursuit? Obviously, his IQ and aesthetics are enough to pursue something more elegant and textured, and he has such a beautiful face.

Li Shang is born to be a piranha in the rainforest. It is a colorful and scented trap. People who are far away don't feel it, but they are attracted by it when they get close.Jumping down one after another, to save him, to bring out the truth, kindness and beauty in his heart, and make his prodigal son return.

What's more, literati are the hardest hit areas for this kind of psychological complex. For example, the great Confucianists in ancient times loved to talk about poetry with the oiran. If they wanted to arouse the romance in the hearts of stunning beauties, they would rather talk day and night than spend a lot of money on it. Not exempt.

But Li Shang's deadliest point was that he didn't even bother to take advantage of it.Like a tiger that is too full to eat, it is too lazy to pick up dead bodies as it passes by.

"Smart people must pursue the universal values ​​of happiness and happiness?" He asked Lin Kou indifferently, "Besides, Teacher Lin believes that people can only be happy through loving and being loved. It’s the same, but it’s just another kind of ideological hegemony. Mr. Lin is also from UCLA, so it’s too unimaginative.”

In fact, Su Rong knew that Lin Kou would definitely anger Li Shang, because Lin Kou resembled him too much, and believed that love and freedom were the answers to all problems.It's just that Lin Kou is more academic and sober than him.Even if Li Shang could endure those twenty questions, as long as Lin Kou mentioned the word "love" in front of him, he would definitely fight back.

That is the side of Li Shang that is not seen by others. Su Rong often sees it because he has had too many quarrels. It is a very dark and sharp side, like a diamond cut, with an indifferent light, but also very attractive.

As Su Rong said, he is the one who cuts the rough stone.Nowadays, there are too many idols. They are rhinestones on the assembly line. After careful whitewashing and strong light, they look no different from jewelry.Xia Yi has had enough of this kind of loss, Xia Yi is more gentle, like jade, even if she rushes left and right, she can't tear a way out.Li Shang is different, Li Shang is a diamond, he can be distinguished from a rhinestone, as long as his shell is cut open, the light can be seen immediately.

This interview is not for the audience, because Su Rong will personally force them to delete it in a bad way when it is broadcast. Of course, the audience can also see it, but as Li Shang said, in the era of entertainment fast food, the audience does not need this.This interview is for people in the industry, and for people like Lin Kou who have a good aesthetic. They can see the brilliance of Li Shang. After seeing it, they feel that he is suitable to be a higher-level idol, like back then The multi-dwelling king in the Hong Kong circle was still selected by the director to make a second cut in the movie, it depends on the chance.

What's more, this is just the beginning, and there will be many attempts in the future.

This program was very successful, otherwise Lin Kou would not have been talking to Su Rong after the recording, mainly discussing the content of the editing, this program is affiliated with Baili Media, and Su Rong has not signed the broadcast agreement until now , After editing, it must be passed through him before it can be played.Lin Kou is a cultured person, and she has never seen such twists and turns, but she doesn't care too much, she is like a persistent reporter, and she is happy enough to visit the side of Li Shang that no one has seen, and the ratings don't matter. These people always pay more attention to quality than quantity to the audience, otherwise they wouldn't have sat around the fire with such ratings for two or three years.

"...Then let the editor of your team communicate with us at night." She walked all the way outside the TV station, and seeing the cars coming, Huang Lei and the others got into the car, she suddenly said to Su Rong: "Actually, I I think Li Shang is also very good."

In fact, these words can be regarded as simple and deep, but Su Rong herself, like her, is the type of person who will be laughed at by Li Shang to death.So I didn't think much of it, and instead asked, "How do you say?"

"He's so unique now..." Lin Kou couldn't find a suitable adjective, added a gesture, waved it, and could only pass by: "It doesn't have to be tamed. It's like a wild and gorgeous bird. If you really lock it up, Maybe the feathers change color. It’s all like this, beauty is born in contradictions and pains, and it fades when trapped in a mediocre and stable life day and night.”

It’s no wonder she’s hard to describe, it’s really hard to give examples—there are plenty of examples in the entertainment industry. Actors and actresses who made literary films when they were young are full of aura, slender and melancholy, and a look tells a story. Of course, they are not happy.Looking at it in ten years, I got married and had children, my body was full of smoke and smoke, my eyes were cloudy, I felt a dull sense of happiness, and I even started blessing.That kind of fragile aesthetic feeling is gone forever, compared to Xiao Su's emotionally hurt and decadent demeanor, there must be a difference, but no one can bear to say it's a pity.

Su Rong understood what she meant, and said "I know." She got into the nanny's car.

Li Shang got impatient after waiting, said "drive", and sat there with a sullen expression, Su Rong took the scarf slowly, and took water from Huang Lei to drink.

"You might as well just stay here." He mocked Su Rong again: "I think you and that woman can get along quite well."

People who have really come into contact with Lin Kou may not think that she is a good partner, because she can't make money, but they can't say that she is not worthy of respect, because she is a pure idealist, even offending people. A childish offense peculiar to idealism.Only Li Shang was left, and even though he had chatted with her once, he still made mockery.

"Yeah, we even recommend literary films to each other." Su Rong said lightly while drinking water.

Huang Lei gave Li Shang a thumbs up from an angle he couldn't see. Presumably, within half an hour, the good news that "Brother Rong stood up and resisted" would spread throughout the country.

Li Shang didn't speak anymore, but just moved over directly. The nanny's car was an old GMC, which was not too roomy for Li Shang's height. He turned sideways and turned off the lights inside the car. Su Rong instinctively hid, or Caught by him.

"What are you doing?" Su Rong curled up into a ball, "Don't get nervous."

In fact, everyone in the car is his own, but this head can't be driven, not to mention that Li Shang is getting more and more aggressive now, getting worse, and whenever he has a chance, he will touch Su Rong. Su Rong can't beat him, and he can't hide. The temper can't last long, and I can only dodge in embarrassment all day long.

"Don't move around." Li Shang dragged him directly and trapped him in his arms, like a large doll, or something else. His position was originally flat, and the curtains were lowered. The car drove forward smoothly. The entire carriage was dark, only the sound of sleeping breathing of Huang Lei and Lin Sa in the front row could be heard.His embrace was very warm, and it aroused Su Rong's drowsiness. Anyway, no one saw it, so he let it go, changed to a more comfortable position, and dozed off.

Li Shang didn't speak, but just touched Su Rong's back again and again, he often did this when he was extremely tired, it was a pure action without any ambiguous meaning, lazy and casual.

"You are satisfied now." He said with a little sarcasm.

He meant that Su Rong succeeded in forcing him to accept the whole interview.In fact, even Li Shang will inevitably make preconceived mistakes. The things he resists talking to people are actually nothing to talk about.Su Rong is not the only person in the world who can understand him and forgive him. Sooner or later, he will find out about this and admit that what he suffered during his growth period is not normal in this world.At that time, even if he can't fall in love with this world, at least he can shake hands and make peace, lose some sharpness, and get a little worldly happiness.

Su Rong yawned. From his perspective, Li Shang's face was a very vague outline in the darkness, but it still had a texture, like a stone at night is still a stone.He couldn't help but raised his hand and touched Li Shang's face. It was rare that Li Shang didn't touch it back, but smiled silently. Su Rong ran his fingers up the corners of his lips, and the corners of his lips were very beautiful. radians.

"It's still early."

"Oh, it's so amazing..." Li Shang chuckled softly. When he was extremely sleepy, he was always very gentle, like a large beast dozing off. This was probably the only time when he was close to the "normal happiness" described by Lin Kou.

"Of course." Su Rong yawned, and lazily threatened: "You'd better put away your thoughts of dying alone, and sell any yacht as soon as possible. You didn't disappear on the day alone at sea, Your only end is to achieve happiness in the worldly sense and live a happy life.”

Li Shang didn't speak for a long time, Su Rong thought he fell asleep, but when the car passed the elevated road, he suddenly heard him laughing softly: "That's a good line."

But he was caught watching a literary film once, and he was laughed until today. Su Rong had already taken off her sensitivity and laughed too.Resting his forehead on Li Shang's shoulder, he closed his eyes.

Rita has always said that he pays too much attention to the beginning, and doesn't know how to get tired of it over time.In fact, he knows that no matter how deep the friendship is, it will be worn out in the process of getting along with each other, not to mention that there are business affairs between him and Li Shang.Coupled with the fact that Li Shang even buys a car, he has the character of putting it in the garage to collect dust after he gets it. Every moment of getting along with each other is actually a countdown.

But he didn't lie to Li Shang, he really expected Li Shang to be happy, even if he knew very well that he might not have a part in that happiness, it didn't matter.Just like a ginkgo tree, the growth cycle is extremely long. Those who eat the fruit will never be the ones who planted the tree, but there will always be someone who will plant it.

I may not be by your side when you bear fruit, but I have seen your first leaf, and that is enough.

That's a good line.
