duet

Song Yuzhen raised his eyebrows.He moved closer to Pei Xun, with a dramatic and exaggerated expression on his face: "What? Did I hear correctly?"

Pei Xun didn't move or speak.He lowered his head and smoked, his eyebrows were closed, as if he didn't notice the eager curiosity of the people around him: "I can't, I feel like I'm witnessing some kind of love story... You two have only been together for a long time, and you will fall into true love soon." gone?"

"Hey, but Zhou Nian seems to be quite honest, maybe it is." He was amused for a long time, "But when are there so few people who like you? I don't see you caring about everyone. In the final analysis, Zhou Nian is very good-looking , especially if you like it."

The smoke is almost gone.Pei Xun stubbed it out in the ashtray, stood up straight, and straightened his cuffs.

He didn't pay attention to Song Yuzhen's intentions, so Song Yuzhen didn't come up to laugh at him anymore, it was useless to laugh.I have been an old friend for many years, and he is very clear about Pei Xun's temper: this person is like a seashell, only when he relaxes can he let people see a soft inner part and tell a few truths; Immediately, the shell can be put back again, and the eight winds will not move, impeccable.

The wall clock on the wall pointed to five o'clock and rang.Knowing that the audition would be over soon, Pei Xun walked towards the door.Song Yuzhen leaned on the back of the sofa, yawned, and only called out when he came to the door: "Brother Xun."

Pei Xun turned sideways slightly.

"In this kind of matter, you are inexperienced, so you should listen to what your brother says." Song Yuzhen smiled frivolously, but his eyes were calm, "Sincerity is something that must be exchanged with sincerity."

Through the sunshine all over the floor, Pei Xun raised his eyes to look at him.

"If you're not going to do something with him, then don't get involved with him," Song Yuzhen said, "and don't use your old logic to think about things. Can matters of interest be separated from feelings?"

Zhou Nian received the notification from the crew of "Mountain Ghost" on the third day after the audition.The words in the email were very succinct, simply congratulated him for passing the audition and getting the role of the leading actor, and reminded him that the schedule and related matters had been sent as an attachment, please check it.

Most of these belonged to Xu Li's work category, and she must have received one.Things outside of the play are not important, but the actors who play with him must know.Zhou Nian clicked on the attached cast list and took a look, a little surprised.

The heroine is Chen Anru, a veteran actor who has already been decided. This was known early on.The second female number is Li Jin - this is not too difficult to guess.On the day of the audition, he saw Li Jin's performance, which was indeed vivid and rare among young actresses.The second heroine in the script is another art student who went to the mountains with the male protagonist to gather scenery. She has a lively and sharp personality, and she has revealed many secrets bluntly.Such a character design has many similarities with Li Jin's own personality. It is not surprising that she will be chosen to play this role.

Zhou Nian stared at her name on the screen, but thought of two other words.It wasn't until Xiaobai rubbed against his feet that he regained his composure and began to think about the business at hand.

What surprised him was the candidate to play the male number two - Song Yuzhen.

Since winning the Golden Dragon last year, Song Yuzhen's net worth has soared all the way, and now he has become synonymous with the new generation of acting niche.The news that broke out not long ago gained him a long-term attention for a full month.At such a popular time, instead of seizing the opportunity to act in a few more commercial blockbusters that can make money quickly, but to play supporting roles for actors who are not as famous as him in independent films... This is not like what any new actor will do.

The second male lead in the film is an agent, serving a real estate group that intends to acquire mountain land.In the script, driven by his job status, he had many conflicts with the villagers protecting the mountains and forests.Therefore, from the perspective of general audiences, this character should be regarded as a villain.

He originally thought that this role should belong to Zhang Chengxuan.After the audition, he had a phone call with Lin Chen.Hearing that Zhang Chengxuan also participated in the audition, Lin Chen was not surprised, and said with a smile: "Of course he urgently needs a good film to save his reputation - that scandal must have affected his popularity. If he doesn't make a good film, what else can he do? I heard that he I will bring money into the group, just to get a role in Bai Hua's movie."

Zhang Chengxuan did not perform well when trying to read the protagonist's monologue, and was interrupted by Bai Hua when he read the second paragraph.The protagonist is not destined for him, and so is the supporting role in the end—or he can't let go of the burden of being an idol to play the villain after all, or Bai Hua's crew is never short of money: everyone knows that Pei Xun and Bai Hua have a close friendship, and he is behind him. So, Bai Hua didn't have to go against the idea and use such an actor.

Thinking of those two words again, Zhou Nian shook his head and put them aside.

Getting your first coveted role in a year should be celebrated.But Zhou Nian thought about it for a while, but he couldn't think of any special way to celebrate, let alone anyone who wanted to share his joy—in fact, there were, but it was as if there weren't any.

So he spent another afternoon playing with DVDs.He had bought the blu-ray disc of Song Yuzhen's The Emperor's Conquerment before, and he happened to take it apart and read it at this time, so he acted as if he was familiar with the actors who were about to have a rival drama in advance and did his homework in advance.After a whole day, only Xiaobai was rewarded: Zhou Nian mixed a bowl of chicken rice for him. After all, he was about to start filming, and he would not see him for several months.

Most of his friends are actors, and few of them have time to take care of the puppy for a long time.When Xiao Bai was carried into the dog bag, it seemed that it thought that the owner was going to send it there last time, and frantically wagged its hairball-like tail: in the month it stayed by Pei Xun's side, it had grown quite a lot. Five catties.

When I arrived at the destination, I couldn't wait to poke my head out, only to find that it was a pet shop outside.The little dog immediately felt that he had been cheated of his feelings, and immediately grabbed the corner of his clothes with his paws, refusing to let go of the hook.

Seeing this, the pet clerk laughed: "This little cutie never left you, right?"

Zhou Nian patted its head and said, "Yes."

It's just that animals are the same as people, it is impossible to get used to parting.

He joined the filming two weeks later.

The filming location of the "Mountain Ghost" crew is set in the mountains in the southwest.Summer started early this year, and the heat arrived in the south early. Even though half of the filming was in the mountains and forests, the coolness of the grass and trees could not match the humidity and heat.Only two weeks after starting the machine, Li Jin began to shout that the mosquitoes here are too ferocious to be able to resist.

Her role is a young and beautiful female student. Most of the clothes matched by the costumer are light and short, which saves on fabric.These days, she has become the focus of the mosquitoes in the mountains.

Just before the filming, Zhou Nian watched a moth-legged mosquito land on her bare forearm.Of course she felt it too, but the scene was still going on, and the director didn't stop it, so the two of them could only watch the mosquito satiated with blood before flapping its wings calmly and flying away.

Zhou Nian was thoughtful and thoughtful. After knowing the location of the shooting, he expected this situation and prepared a lot of refreshing medicine.Relying on these little mosquito repellents, Li Jin has cultivated a deep revolutionary feeling for him.After taking five shots in a row, Bai Hua finally said it, and the sorrowful look on her face that belonged to the characters in the play disappeared completely, and she almost hugged his arm and begged for medicine.Naturally, Zhou Nian would not refuse, taking advantage of the break in the next round, she gave her a stick of green ointment.

The bitten place on Li Jin's hand was swollen into a bulging red spot, which was already painful and itchy, so he quickly took it with gratitude.She is optimistic and generous, she complains of suffering, but she never slows down the progress because of this.After taking the medicine, he wiped it on his body conveniently, and asked his assistant to take the prepared mung bean soup, and gave it to Zhou Nian to relieve the heat.

"I asked Sister Zhang to cook it according to the recipe at home," she handed it to him as if offering a treasure, her eyebrows and eyes curved, "it's very delicious."

Miss Zhang is her assistant.Li Jin is a lively person with a very sweet mouth. No matter what position he holds in the crew, as long as he is older than her, he always has a brother and sister.Zhou Nian has been called "Little Brother Zhou" a few times by her in the past few days, so he can't be polite anymore, so he has to accept it.

"Hey, why don't I have a share." As soon as he took a sip, someone leaned over him in an irregular manner.Looking up, it was Song Yuzhen: "It's so sad, so sad, how can there be such an unfair thing, such an unfair little girl!"

Before joining the group, Zhou Nian did not expect Song Yingdi to have such a personality.He was recognized at a young age, but he doesn't have the arrogance that is common in the circle. Instead, he is quite approachable and loves to talk and laugh.Along the way, he and Li Jin are very similar, and the two quickly became acquainted, often bickering with each other as soon as the scene started.Zhou Nian was puzzled at first, after all, Song Yuzhen and Pei Xun were famously close, no matter how flirtatious he was, he would not offend Pei Xun's current girlfriend.But looking at his appearance, there was no intention of avoiding suspicion at all.

The conditions in the mountainous area are simple, not comparable to the film and television base. There are even hotels here, and the whole group lives in the hotel in the town.Bai Hua looked informal, but in reality he was quite strict. No one in the crew dared to take his word for it, and naturally no one played big games, and there was no fuss about changing the residence.This facilitated Zhou Nian's selfishness. Even though he knew it was hypocritical, he couldn't help but pay attention to the passing cars every night when he returned to the hotel... Fortunately, the one in his memory never appeared.

It was the first time in Zhou Nian's life that he cared so much about other people's private affairs. He felt that it was wrong, very wrong, but he had all kinds of crazy thoughts in his mind: Pei Xun never came to visit the class, and Li Jin was so close to others, it might not be possible for two people to be together. What kind of feelings are there, maybe they are just acting on the occasion...

These thoughts are like spring buds after the Waking of Insects, which begin to grow wildly in response to the rain.He selectively ignored Pei Xun's scandal and the intimate conversation between the two of them that day. When he was sober, he knew it was self-deception, but most of the time he would rather not be sober.

But there are many days of nothing, and I can't help but feel depressed.Unclear tastes intertwined, he didn't know whether he was afraid of seeing him or wanted to see him.

Li Jinzheng raised his face with a provocative face: "Call me sister, and I'll give you a drink when I call."

"Sister! Sister Jinjin!" Unexpectedly, Song Yuzhen did not hesitate, and immediately changed his flattering face.

"..." Li Jin was speechless.The two looked at each other for a moment, then laughed at the same time.Zhou Nian sat on the side, finished the bowl of mung bean soup silently, and wanted to change to a seat farther away from the two of them, when Bai Hua happened to beckon him, "Come here."

He held a bound booklet in his hand.Zhou Nian took a closer look, and it turned out to be a storyboard, so he let out a soft "Huh".

Many directors are used to hand-drawing storyboards, and Bai Hua is the same.It’s just that although there are many storyboard drafts he has seen, this one is indeed the best one—unlike the usual scribbled lines that are only used to outline the general scene, the person who drew it obviously has a solid foundation in art.Zhou Nian couldn't help taking a closer look, the brushwork was not complicated, but he outlined the boundless artistic conception with just a few strokes.

"Have you ever studied art?" He asked Bai Hua.

Bai Hua didn't answer directly.He turned to the last page of the booklet and pointed to the signature at the bottom.

Someone scrawled the word "Pei" in his familiar handwriting.
