I don't want to work hard

Chapter 80 I Remember This Smell

After dinner, Wang Biqing and Ding Lin were sitting on the sofa watching a variety show when the mobile phone on the coffee table rang.Wang Biqing glanced at the name on the caller ID on the screen, picked up the phone and ran into the room with a strange expression.When she came back more than an hour later, Wang Biqing just casually said that it was an old classmate who called, but Ding Lin saw through Wang Biqing's lies at a glance.

"Are you here to ask me to film a movie?"

"No, you have to rest for a few more months. During this period, you will see how you recover before considering taking over the job. Anyway, it's not a particularly good book."

"What book?" Ding Lin asked directly.

"This..." Wang Biqing was a little embarrassed, "Linlin, there are a few directors and screenwriters who have come to ask recently, so we still have options."

Seeing that Wang Biqing didn't want to talk about it, Ding Lin didn't insist anymore, but just reminded him lightly: "Yesterday, the doctor said that I have almost recovered. You don't need to help me refuse to work. If you have a good notebook, you can read it."

He was in a coma for more than a year in a car accident, and he has been in a rehabilitation training for nearly a year. Because of the accident, the crew had to replace Ding Lin with half of the filming. So he has not appeared in front of the public for two years. With the changing frequency of the entertainment industry and the memory of the audience, no one remembers Ding Lin except those diehard fans.

Therefore, Ding Lin, who is preparing to come back next, must choose an excellent work that is shocking enough to awaken the public's memory.

So, after Ding Lin spent an afternoon carefully reading the script, he immediately agreed without hesitation, which made Wang Biqing feel a little bad when he saw the person sitting in the living room when he returned home.

"Director Zhang, you understand Linlin's situation. He is really not suitable for acting now, especially for your drama. I thought I explained it clearly to you last night. Why did you come here today? !" Wang Biqing glanced at Ding Lin, and felt that it was difficult to say something directly in front of him, so she took Zhang Xingyuan to speak outside.

"Mom, I've finished reading the script, and I'll accept this play." Ding Lin put the finished script on the table and said first.

"Have you finished reading it all?"

"Yes, whether it's the conflicts in the story, the characterization of the characters and the reaction to the facts, Director Zhang's script can really be regarded as a rare masterpiece."

"But Linlin, this script is based on the 316 extremely serious traffic accident in Shaoshi ten years ago, and it's also a tragedy. Mom doesn't want you to have a bad influence on yourself because of making this drama."

"Mom, I got out of the car accident a long time ago, and the doctor also said that I can start to return to my original life. Now I stay at home all day with nothing to do, so it makes me think wildly, okay?"

"What are you thinking about!"

"I wonder if I've passed away, and no one comes to me for filming anymore."

"Linlin, is that why you want to take on the show?"

"Yes, and I also shared my thoughts with Director Zhang. We both have a lot of information about this drama." Ding Lin looked at Wang Biqing firmly, obviously he has already done the next drama. decision.

"Ah Qing, don't worry, we all grew up watching Lin Lin, and he has filmed so many scenes, he can distinguish reality, you don't have to worry about him getting too involved in the drama." Zhang Xingyuan also Said aside.

"Since you're doing it for his own good, you shouldn't have come to him. I can't accept Linlin now. I don't want him to accept any risky scenes."

"There will be no risk, and this drama is still a key project in Shaozhou City. We will get local support for the entire filming, and safety is absolutely guaranteed." Zhang Xingyuan said confidently.

"Now I can be said to be bitten by a snake for ten years and afraid of well ropes. When I think that Linlin will go out to film and work again, I feel uneasy. Hey, Zhang, you don't understand." Wang Biqing Sad face.

Zhang Xingyuan wanted to say something, but Ding Lin said first, "Director Zhang, thank you for coming here today, and leave the rest to me."

After all, it was the crux of their mother and son's heart. Zhang Xingyuan felt that he was an outsider, so he couldn't say anything more. Since Ding Lin said that he could persuade Wang Biqing, let him do it.

Zhang Xingyuan looked at Ding Lin gratefully, got up and left, and before leaving, he said: "If it's convenient, next week I'll call the screenwriter, producer and other actors together, let's have a dinner together. "

"Well, I'm sorry, Director Zhang."

After Zhang Xingyuan left, Wang Biqing went back to her room without saying a word.Ding Lin knew that his mother didn't want him to take such a sensitive scene out of consideration for his safety, but because of this concern, Ding Lin also felt it was a pity to give up this drama.Moreover, he also read the script and didn't think there was anything to worry about.

Ding Lin pushed open the door and saw Wang Biqing with his back turned to him, sitting on the bed angrily, and knocked on the door lightly, but unfortunately Wang Biqing didn't even turn her head.It seemed that this time, she was really angry.

"Mom!" Ding Lin walked over and sat next to Wang Biqing.

"Have you decided to take this role?"

"I'm not here to discuss with you."

"What are you discussing? If I come back later today, have you even signed the contract?"

"How come, I don't always discuss with you before making a decision? But, Mom, I want to ask you, if you put aside your worries, or if this accident hadn't happened to me, what would you do? Will you let me take the play?"

"That's needless to say? You and Lao Zhang have filmed so many scenes before, and I don't worry about whether the show itself is his team, but..." Wang Biqing said helplessly until the end, hesitant to speak .

"Look, we're all thinking the same thing. It's just that you're worried that making this car accident movie will have a bad influence on me. I don't think that's possible at all. That's the crux of the matter. Mom, Not everyone who has experienced a car accident will have psychological trauma, even if there is, then we have to face it instead of choosing to escape, otherwise, will I not even be able to sit in a car in the future?"

"Ding Lin, mom didn't mean that. Mom just thought, hey..." Wang Biqing sighed. As a parent, when faced with matters related to his own children, he would be more or less concerned about his own children, but he would be confused.

"I know, you care about me. But, I was young before, and you gave me ideas for everything, but now that I'm an adult, you can let me make the decision, please?"

Wang Biqing looked at the pleading look in Ding Lin's eyes, but she was still soft-hearted after all, and finally nodded and agreed to Ding Lin's acceptance of the play.

Zhang Xingyuan was the happiest when he received the news that Wang Biqing agreed, "That's really great. To be honest, Linlin, if your mother really disagrees, I really can't find a suitable person to act."

"Heh, I thought of you when I saw this script. This role is custom-made for you! Director Zhang, it's been ten years. Can you use a new word? I'm tired of hearing your words." Because Wang Biqing agreed It made Ding Lin's mood brighten, and he started talking to Zhang Xingyuan again on the phone.

"No, it's really not this. Of course, I also admit that you are indeed suitable for this role. This time, I approached you mainly to fulfill my long-cherished wish for many years."

"What long-cherished wish?"

"After so many years, can we watch the classic father and son collaborate again on the screen?"

Ding Lin: "..."

"Hey, tell me a word, are you excited too?"

Ding Lin was silent for a long time before slowly asking: "So, Yang Yingdi also promised you to participate in this drama?"

"Not yet. I can't get in touch with him recently. I can only contact his sister Yang Xiao. But Yang Xiao said that he is really receiving treatment at this stage, and it is not convenient for him to take on the show."

Hearing this, Ding Lin immediately frowned, and asked anxiously, "What is the treatment? Didn't it mean that he has almost recovered?"

"It's not a physical problem. It seems that this car accident has affected him psychologically. He is currently receiving psychological treatment. Alas, Yang Yi has been out of acting for many years. If this is true, it may be difficult to ask him to come back this time. " Zhang Xingyuan said regretfully.

For some reason, Ding Lin became inexplicably worried when he heard about Yang Yi's situation. Although he really wanted Yang Yi to come, but considering his current situation and the sensitivity of this drama, it was really hard to force him.

Although he regretted not being able to cooperate with Yang Yi again, Ding Lin still decided to take over this drama.

On the weekend, he attended the dinner hosted by Zhang Xingyuan on time and invited the main creators to meet.When Ding Lin arrived, everyone was almost there. Seeing this familiar face again after so many years, Ding Lin couldn't help but feel excited inside.

Everyone also welcomed Ding Lin very politely, and asked about his recovery situation by the way, but as soon as he was at the table, Ding Lin noticed that the seat on his right had been vacant.

"Is there anyone else here?"

"It should be. Director Zhang asked me to reserve seats for 16 people, and just now he walked out with the phone, probably to pick up people." The assistant director said.

"The boss who can bother Director Zhang picks it up in person, won't be our male lead."

"Who is the male lead in the end?"

"I don't know, I heard that I wanted to find Yang Yi, but unfortunately I couldn't come in the end."

"Oh, I wanted to see the scene where the father and son who moved the whole country cooperate again, but I'm afraid this hope will be lost."

Everyone just chatted like this, waiting for their male protagonist to arrive, but Ding Lin looked at the empty seat beside him, and felt that a piece of his head had been dug out by something, feeling empty and uncomfortable.

Suddenly, amidst the noise, Ding Lin heard a slight sound of footsteps coming from outside, from far to near, even through the door, but he still distinguished it from the familiar walking frequency and unique steady pace.

For a moment, Ding Lin's whole body tensed up, his eyes were fixed on the door, like a slow motion deliberately extended by the director, in his expectation, the doorknob was slowly turned open.

When Yang Yi appeared behind the door, the noisy private room suddenly became quiet.

With his calm smile, Yang Yi walked in, walked around half a circle and finally pulled away the chair next to Ding Lin and sat down without even asking, as if his name was posted on the seat .

"Sorry, the road was blocked for a while, so I'm late."

"So you really agreed to come to our film crew?" With uncontrollable excitement, the hand hidden under the table nervously grabbed his pants, Ding Lin asked impatiently.

"I didn't say I wouldn't come."

"But you..."

"Hush!" Yang Yi lowered his head and whispered in Ding Lin's ear, "I want to pick it up myself, don't tell Xiaoxiao."

As Yang Yi approached, the unique scent of the Nordic coniferous forest wafted over him, and the originally chaotic and scattered memories were gradually awakened with this familiar smell.
