red dust upside down

Su Rong studied in the mirror for 10 minutes in the bathroom, and reluctantly admitted that the bite marks could only be covered by clothes.He is different from other makeup artists, he does not have the habit of carrying cosmetics with him, not to mention that it is useless to carry one or two in this situation, he must use concealer.His skin was thin, it was just a dimple when he first bit it, and it quickly became a bruise, which was very conspicuous with a purple tinge.The location is also awkward, on top of the collar of the shirt. In the past two years, high collars have not been popular, so you can only rely on scarves. It is okay outside, but how to cover it indoors is a problem.

He didn't bother to bother anymore, so he went straight back to the car.It's only nine o'clock now, what party in the circle doesn't last until eleven or twelve o'clock?That's why Huang Lei would be lazy, and even told Su Rong that she went to eat with Lu Yunbai's assistant, and the driver wasn't there.Only Lin Sa was sleeping in the car, Su Rong went up lightly, but he still woke up, and asked, "Why are you back so early?"

"It's not fun inside." Su Rong lowered his head and drilled in. However, Lin Sa's eyes were very sharp, so he still found it. He grabbed him and said with a smile: "What's wrong, let me see."

He pinched Su Rong's face, turned to look at the side of his neck, and smiled immediately.

"This one needs to be concealed with red and yellow. The creamy one is the best. I will give you two boxes later, and use a small brush to apply it."

That's what Lin Sa is good at. He just discusses the facts, never talks about anything else, and pretends not to know when he sees it.If it was Pei Yin, he could unscrew Su Rong's head.

So Su Rong was very calm in front of him, said "um", ran to the back, and also laid down the chair and fell asleep.Falling asleep and remembering the manager's duties, he asked, "Where's the driver?"

"Huang Lei took him to eat." Lin Sa said, "You also called me."

"Why don't you go?"

"I'm sleepy."

In fact, anyone with eyes can see Lin Sa's decline, let alone Su Rong who grew up with him.However, Su Rong is the most defensive person. Last time, Huang Lei and the others were just people around gossip. Lin Sa's gossip came to Lin Sa's head, and he looked at the exhibition of his works back then, and sighed while watching: "Hey, Lin Sa Brother was really good-looking back then, why is he so Buddha now."

This is at best an emotion, not even a derogatory term. They usually say more than this, and Su Rong has a good temper. Sometimes they joke and say, "Brother Rong is good everywhere, just his eyesight." It's not very good", one sentence scolded both Su Rong and Li Shang, Su Rong just smiled and didn't speak.Unexpectedly, this time, Su Rong lost his temper once. It was the first time Huang Lei and the others were scolded, and they were so frightened that they didn't dare to provoke Lin Sa.

In fact, when Su Rong snatched their mobile phones to delete the video, she couldn't help but glance at it. Lin Sa, who was in her early twenties, took the model's hand to call off the curtain. There is a sense of proud beauty.Unlike now, the whole person seems to be in a state of hibernation, the whole person is gentle and dull, only when Li Shang bullies Su Rong too much, he stands up and performs the duty of a senior brother.If Pei Yin saw him now, he would definitely scold him.He has always been hard-spoken and soft-hearted, and defends his weaknesses. He follows the principle that he is his senior brother and can only be bullied by himself. If he suffers from outsiders, he will definitely stand out.

Su Rong also defended his shortcomings, but he trusted Lin Sa more.

If Lin Sa thinks it's worth it, then it's worth it.

What's more, he never felt that there was nothing that could defeat Lin Sa. He and Lin Sa were of the same kind.Good things in the world are not strong, colorful clouds are easy to disperse, and glass is brittle. Everyone in the world thinks it's a pity that glass is broken. They don't have this kind of attachment. Broken glass is also glass. In Su Rong's view, broken glass is sometimes more beautiful, let alone a lifetime. It would be a pity to complete it without even a gap.Both of them have no academic knowledge, if you must say that they are elegant, this is probably the place where they are elegant.

The lights in the parking lot were dim, and few cars came in this area. Su Rong wrapped herself in a blanket, but still couldn't sleep, so she couldn't help calling Lin Sa: "Senior brother."

Lin Sa smiled.

Every time Su Rong called that, he must have caused trouble or was about to cause trouble, and he probably guessed what Su Rong was going to say, so he just said calmly: "What's wrong?"

Su Rong hesitated for a moment, but still moved over. The atmosphere was very similar to Huatian's dormitory back then. When he was sleeping on bunk beds, the only thing missing was the posters on the wall and the moonlight from the window, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Brother, do you really like Xiao Su so much?"

This question seems to be asking for nothing, but Lin Sa can hear the meaning behind it.

It's one thing to like someone, to like them enough to want to be with them.It's another thing to like him enough to have sex with him.What's more, Lin Sa had never dated a man before. Others thought he was the one who turned Xiao Su around.

"Why, you don't like Li Shang anymore?" Lin Sa asked lazily, resting her hands on her pillow.

"No." Su Rong still didn't have the nerve to ask directly: "I'm just a little bit dissatisfied."

"What are you dissatisfied with?" Lin Sa asked knowingly.

Su Rong's face suddenly wrinkled, and he didn't speak, Lin Sa was amused by him, reached out and pinched his cheek.Qin Yue was actually wrong that day. Su Rongchang’s age doesn’t matter, it’s just skin. Those who really know him well will find that his eyes have never changed. He is still the 17-year-old “sister” who looks angry and angry. .

Probably the atmosphere is too good now, and the enclosed space in the car also gives people a sense of security, Su Rong frowned for a while, and said: "Why does everyone think that I should be suppressed by that bastard Li Shang?"

Lin Sa suddenly laughed out loud.

"Do you want to suppress Li Shang?"

Su Rong thought about the scene for a while, and immediately said with disgust: "That's not enough."

Lin Sa was thoroughly amused by him, and asked him, "Then what are you dissatisfied with?"

He was joking, but in fact, he could see clearly from the beginning to the end, what Su Rong disobeyed was never about being oppressed or being oppressed. Su Rong doesn't have any "masculinity" to express about the little details on the bed.What he is really dissatisfied with is that Li Shang doesn't like him that much yet. They have completely different concepts about going to bed. Li Shang's entanglement and "harassment" may seem "sweet" to Huang Lei and the others. To him, It's just sugar-coated poison.

He can be with Tong Xiaojia, he can be with Le Yingsi, and of course he can be with Su Rong, there is no essential difference between them.Su Rong's dissatisfaction lies here.He has the pickiness and sensitivity of someone who has been loved. Although he can't say exactly where he is unhappy, he instinctively resists the proposal that makes him uncomfortable.

So Lin Sa guided him to speak out, and said lightly, "Actually, Li Shang probably never liked others like he liked you."

It’s still a question of who to compare, and it’s obviously not comparable to Su Rong’s feelings for him, but looking at Li Shang’s life, before that, he probably didn’t like people very much. Foreign countries have always been promiscuous, and he looks like this, so he probably relapsed early. , University is also very popular. When he entered the entertainment industry, he was already a wild horse. Lin Sa had studied abroad at least, so he looked at the problem from a different perspective.

Su Rong was silent for a long time as if sullen, and then said in a muffled voice, "But that's not love."

If it was any one of the seniors, even Huang Lei, he would laugh out loud at this time, otherwise he would be in vain to bear the false name of "mixing in the entertainment industry".But Lin Sa is worthy of being Lin Sa, and he can still ask him calmly: "Then the girls you brought back before, did they love each other deeply?"

When Su Rong fell in love, he met Lin Sa who had just returned to China. He was still a well-behaved junior when he left, but he was already tricked by a girl when he came back, so he was a little sad.Pei Yin and the others reacted more, chasing and intercepting every day, trying to catch the scene to watch the excitement, Su Rong was exhausted all day long, and soon broke up, but it was not very sad, it was just a poppylove in adolescence.The latter one is similar, Su Rong is a late bloomer in love, always indifferent, but unexpectedly met Li Shang, and suddenly became vigorous.

When Lin Sa mentioned this, Su Rong herself became puzzled, and said, "But that's because they like each other."

"So what you mind is not that Li Shang likes you, but that you like Li Shang too much?"

Lin Sa didn't point it out, but they all knew what "too much like" meant.Avoiding talking about it like this is like saying that word is a curse. In fact, it's nothing to say it, it's just love.Li Shang often laughs that he likes to watch literary films. In the literary film he watched last time, the heroine played by Anne Hathaway said to the hero: We can't meet again.The hero asked her: Why, don't you love me anymore?She said, "No, Dexter, I still love you, I just don't like you anymore."

In Su Rong's place, if you like someone, you can do it. If you love someone, you can't do it.Because he cared too much, he cared about every cent and refused to give an inch. This state might be a little sick, but he couldn't help it.

The only way he could think of was to ask Lin Sa for an answer, but unfortunately even Lin Sa, who was always like him, couldn't help him with this question. Lin Sa and Xiao Su lived together for seven years, what should have happened has happened long ago.And with Lin Sa's free and easy, he will definitely not have such a long entanglement like him. He always does what he wants to do immediately. It was like this when he was studying abroad, and it is the same with Xiao Su. No matter how shocking the world is, he dares to do it. , so he is Daya and she is Xiaoya.

But he really had no one to ask, so he asked Lin Sa: "You don't just like Xiao Su, do you?"

Even he himself felt that this question was meaningless, but Lin Sa still answered patiently: "Of course not."

"But I think differently from you. When I 'like' someone too much, I just want to get him and have him for a moment. As for what he thinks in his heart, I don't care that much. Life is short, Carpe diem, you know, I have always liked Wei Jin. But this does not mean that I am braver than you, it only means that I am more desperate than you."

"Why?" Su Rong was puzzled.

"Because it shows that you still want at least one result, and I don't expect it long ago."

After saying this, he smiled, covered his face with a scarf, and continued to sleep.He looked a bit like he did back then, when he got into a fight outside, no matter how badly he was injured, he just lay down in the dormitory and went out again after recovering.Su Rong was never afraid that he would just go down like Huang Lei and the others said, he knew that Lin Sa was just recuperating.

Su Rong sat and thought for a while, but still couldn't convince herself that she was as free and easy as Lin Sa, so she lay down lazily again, planning to take a nap before talking, after thinking about it, she jumped to Lin Sa's side, hugged his waist, Don't sleep with him.Lin Sa laughed out of being squeezed, and patted his head.

"I'm fine." He comforted Su Rong with a smile. He hadn't cut his hair for a long time, and Su Rong's hair had grown again. He was born with a little curly hair, which felt very comfortable to the touch. It felt like returning to the age of 20.

Everyone in the world thinks that emotional injury is a big deal, but in fact it is just a part of life, no different from career and family relationship. He dared to go to England to study alone at the age of 17, and jumped to Xiao Su's mansion alone at the age of 21 , Like the scholar who visited the monster cave in the ancient book, he came out after swimming. The process was a twists and turns, but it would not break him.There are many things supporting him, the one who is holding him now is one of them, the entire ninth floor likes Su Rong, he has been loved wholeheartedly, so he will love others wholeheartedly, the two are causal and inseparable , forming a very important part of Su Rong today.

Being loved is a wonderful thing, no matter if the other party is a family member or a friend, that kind of long and firm support, gentle and firm, like hot soup in winter and sunshine on the back, is a simple thing, but Can give people lasting strength.Let you know that you are missed by at least one person.

This kind of love is even more reliable than the fiery and intense love between lovers, because it will not disappear easily, and it has always been here after many years.But not everyone has the ability to give this kind of love. Too many so-called "normal families" don't have it, let alone these young people who gather on the ninth floor for various reasons.So each of them is responding to this love in their own specific way, like Pei Yin, who always hates iron and steel, but he is more gentle, he is just a bystander and doesn't say anything.

It's like he would never remind Su Rong that Li Shang didn't bite him early and didn't bite him later, but chose to bite him today, probably to drive him away and do something bad himself.

In fact, even if Lin Sa reminded Su Rong, it was too late.

Because Li Shang came out of that lounge, and went straight to Lu He's group of directors, without saying a word, holding a glass of wine, and stopped there. He was educated in a Western style since he was a child, and he held homecoming dances after graduating from middle school. The expression is very natural.It was rare for Lu Yunbai to see him take the initiative, so he smiled and asked him, "Why are you willing to come here?"

"My manager asked me to come out and socialize with the director." Li Shang looked calm.

Lu Yunbai held back her laughter, she didn't believe a word of this, if she would listen to her manager, then she wouldn't be Li Shang.But believe it or not, face will still be given.As soon as Li Shang said this, a director next to him laughed, and said cheaply: "You have already acted in Le Zijiao's movie, we dare not climb up."

It is said that the entertainment industry is realistic, but that reality is feminine, with a bit of whitewashing, and the appearance is always a gorgeous and decent reality.And the film industry, in Rita's drunken cursing words, is "a broken place dominated by a group of old men". The reality is very obscene, like the animal world, where the difference between classes is not the difference of status, but the difference of species.No matter how beautiful a star is, it may become a decoration and a plaything of the wine game. You have to climb above the red line to be regarded as a human being.And the people at the lower level look at their upper level and crawl down automatically.The rules are very primitive and barbaric, and no one can even try to preserve their complete dignity.

This variety show director has limited resources, except for one Lu He, the rest are at most on par with Li Shang, and there are many spineless little directors.Lu He has been in this circle all year round, so one can imagine what kind of expectations he has for traffic stars. He has more or less achieved what he has done in the past. When he should jump into the ice cellar and shave his head, he happened to meet a Li businessman.

If it weren't for the delay in finding a suitable script this time, Lu Yunbai would have dragged him and he would not have come here, and would have continued chatting about Monet.Recently, there is a shortage of good scripts, so Lu He had to find an old friend to write, and the other party said: Come to me after the year.Lu He doesn't care about restarting the machine next year, but Li Shang may not be able to wait.In fact, Lu He didn't care about his life or death at all, but Bo Yi wanted the second male lead, and Bo Yi was the employer. Although Lu He was not tough on the employer, he should avoid conflicts as much as possible.

So he was dragged by Lu Yunbai, and he stood there with a cold face. The two of them looked at each other across the narrow wine table and a plate of arctic shrimp. If Lu Yunbai hadn't pushed him with his elbow, he wouldn't have brought him With a mocking tone, he said, "I heard that you want to play Le Zijiao's second male lead?"

In fact, the two of them are natural rivals, because many attributes are completely opposite, ranging from educational background to life philosophy.Lu He is a noble son of a poor family. Li Shang's background is well known in the circle. To put it bluntly, he is the illegitimate son of a rich man in Southeast Asia. One lacks resources and the other lacks freedom. Both parties feel that the other party has no qualifications to be cynical. □□.Not to mention the small places, there are countless.

Lu He made movies early, won awards early, and has a very high seniority in the industry. Many 20-year-old film stars in Dali Shang call him "Director Lu" when they see him, because they have actually been directed by him.Li Shang never buys it, and there are reasons for him not to buy it. On the first day of joining the crew, Rita invited the whole crew to dinner, and explained to him with a smile while the wine was hot. .

But Lu He knew very well that this had nothing to do with Li Shang's education. Li Shang also knew that he knew it, but it didn't prevent him from continuing to look indifferent, and gave a faint "huh" when Lu He first said hello.

Lu He's face suddenly turned cold, and Lu Yunbai saw that the situation was not good, so he quickly smoothed things over, and said with a smile: "You said you, you can't come here, now that "Famen Temple" has finished filming, and the new film will have to wait a few years, what a coincidence .”

Rather than saying what she said was to pave the way for Li Shang to postpone the start of the movie in advance, it was better to say that she reminded Lu He not to turn his face anyway, just treat it as it is for the movie.

Maybe it was because she prepared it too well, Li Shang asked with great interest: "Have you people from "Famen Temple" participated in this variety show?"

"Of course, the photography and beauty fingers are all here, and it's Senior Brother Su Rong, Adam, but it's a pity that Pei Yin didn't come because he didn't think Qian Shao..."

"Is the actor here?" Li Shang interrupted her.

Lu Yunbai sighed deeply in her heart, knowing that she couldn't handle it, she smiled and said, "Of course I'm here, isn't the male second here?"

"I heard." Li Shang didn't even bother to lay the groundwork: "Call me to have a look."

This tone is no different from other people's request to see their pets. Lu Yunbai sighed in her heart again, and at the same time said without hesitation: "Okay."

Zhan Xingzhou is an abandoned son of Boyi, and it will be difficult to have opportunities to cooperate in the future. Being a sacrifice is considered a second use.I am happy to serve this devil king today, so I can say anything.In fact, when Rita was still there, they would drink and scold the two in front of them every day. They had to fight tit for tat, and they couldn't let them make money in a friendly manner.Now Rita has run away, leaving her alone to carry on her last wish, vowing to earn all the money she missed during this period.Nowadays, film and television are in the cold winter, and the survival crisis is at present, and it is justifiable to do anything.

As soon as Lu Yunbai ran away, the two of them fell into a deathly silence again. Li Shang drank his wine lazily, and Lu He also took the wine to drink, and suddenly sneered shortly, as if thinking of a new joke.

"Did you call Zhan Xingzhou here to let him teach you what acting is?"

"No, I knew long ago that I don't need to be good at acting in Director Lu's film." Li Shang said indifferently: "So I asked him to come over and share the experience of letting the management insert us into Director Lu's film."

These words are too harsh, and hit the spot, even the company that placed them is the same, Boyi.The capital has always been at the top of the pyramid, which is the hidden pain of all directors.It is said that acting in a movie requires a sense of faith. Li Shang has this kind of talent in him. He is born with a cold-eyed perspective and sneers at all sense of faith and mission.It can deconstruct and deconstruct all lofty things until they are disassembled into a messy truth.No one can beat him, he is as indifferent as Lu He, and he also cares about movies.And he is like a prodigal son, and also like a naughty boy, who sees through the truth of the world early on, and forces you to admit that you are also standing in the mud.

So Lu He didn't scold him back, but said coldly: "I didn't know that the rebellious period of your defeated generation was so long."

"The last time I watched Director Lu's movie, I read a few pages of the newspaper. It said that the ED rate was as high as 40% over the age of [-]. If Director Lu continues to rely on the old to sell the old, the condition may worsen."

If Lu Yunbai came back a few minutes late, these two people might not be able to stay here fully.

Fortunately, she successfully brought back the sacrifice Zhan Xingzhou. The bright young man knew nothing about the upcoming danger, and greeted with a smile: "Hello, Director Lu."

Li Shang asked her to call, but when she called, she didn't speak, but looked at Zhan Xingzhou indifferently through the rim of the cup. Lu Yunbai felt uneasy, and still put her hand on Zhan Xingzhou's arm affectionately, and asked with a smile: " By the way, isn't your birthday coming soon, how old are you?"

Zhan Xingzhou also smiled and said, "I will be an adult next month."

Su Rong guessed right, Lu He used Zhan Xingzhou for his face, to be precise, his eyes.Not everyone can have such distant eyes even when they smile, his eyes are very much like Li Shang.In fact, it doesn't matter what acting skills are or not. Lu He never counted on traffic to have good acting skills.Chinese culture has its own set of standards for noble looks, but unfortunately that standard is not compatible with the looks of today’s idols. Today’s young people are good-looking, but they are too “thin”. They are beautiful in modern dramas, and they appear as prototypes in ancient costumes. Li Shang is rare to take both into consideration.He is most attacked because he can't play ordinary people, but the life of ordinary people is the concept of modern Western movies. The stories that can be filmed in China are all about emperors and generals. Li Shang's face and his movies are a match made in heaven.

It's a pity that Li Shang's temper is really not very good, and he can't stand the test. Lu He is even strict and magnanimous. The first movie is to test obedience, like taming a tiger in a circus. What.If the Li businessman fails to pass, there will be no way to talk about future cooperation, and no matter how suitable it is, it can only be shelved.Good directors are control freaks, and they can't tolerate changes in their own sets.

But this regret caused him to sneer at Li Shang all the time, and sneered: "It is just right to go to school at this age, and it is not a waste of educational resources to have this qualification. Unlike some people who learned it at UCLA, it is not as good as your acting skills now."

In fact, it’s not that Rita never tried to use Lishang University as a gimmick to make a person, but after thinking about it, she decided to forget it. Lishang really can’t be called this name. It’s purely based on the rankings and recommendation letters of middle schools in the United States. Now in the information age Well, the domestic people are not easy to be deceived. Sooner or later, someone will point out this point, and it will be in vain to give people a handle. It is better to keep it as ammunition reserves, and take it out at critical times, which will have the effect of surprise soldiers.

Lu Yunbai listened by the side, and didn't even bother to sigh. In fact, everyone knew very well that Li Shang was completely indifferent to these words. He might have entered the entertainment industry to make money. This is always the case in this world, and he will be stabbed only if he cares.Although Li Shang's dignity line is surprisingly high among the stars, the focus is not on the movie.

"Director Lu is so emotional, could it be that he was working part-study when he was 17?"

"Is the work-study program also a derogatory term for you?" Lu He looked as if the lower limit had been refreshed.

Li Shang smiled.

"That's not the case." He laughed and his eyes were colder than Zhan Xingzhou's: "I'm just afraid that Director Lu will develop a poor man's thinking, and even actors like to use fakes, so that's not good."
