Perfection

Zheng Xin efficiently replaced Wen Lin with an assistant manager. This time it was a young man who had just joined the company to study with Zheng Xin. His name was Tang Shao. Received Zheng Xin's entrustment, and also attached great importance to it.

The first time Wen Lin went to see a psychiatrist, Wen Jianing accompanied him.While Wen Lin was talking with the doctor alone inside, Wen Jianing and Tang Shao were waiting outside in the lounge.

Tang Shao's personality was off-kilter, and he couldn't sit still, so he got up quickly and told Wen Jianing that he was going out for a walk.

Wen Jianing nodded and stayed alone to wait.

This lounge was originally small in size, but because there was a whole floor-to-ceiling glass mirror on the side, it seemed as if the room had doubled in size at first glance.

Wen Jianing sat on the sofa, facing the large floor-to-ceiling glass mirror.Inside the mirror was a beautiful young man. Because of his occupation, he usually dressed in a very decent and fashionable way, with a pair of big black-rimmed glasses hanging on his face.

He was sitting in a very casual posture, with his back leaning on the back of the sofa chair, his legs naturally separated, his body slightly tilted and one arm leaning on the armrest of the sofa.

But he suddenly thought, if it was Ke Xinhang, it probably shouldn't be such a gesture.He straightened his back, put his legs together, and put his hands on his knees, looking a little stiff.The black-rimmed glasses on his face were also removed, and his bangs slightly covered his eyes. Because he was not confident, he liked to block the sight of communicating with others.

He usually looks in the mirror often, but there are not many opportunities to look in the mirror when he is locked in a small space like this.No one talked to him, no one distracted his thoughts, he opened his mouth and said to the person in the mirror: "Are you Ke Xinhang?"

The words were spoken loudly in a closed room.

Wen Jianing suddenly came back to his senses, raised his hand and put his glasses back on, he was thinking about what he was talking about just now, why did he say that?

He accompanied Wen Lin to see a doctor once, and then handed it over to Tang Shao, and they were about to set off to prepare for the location shooting of the movie.

The location of the movie has already been filmed by Lu Jinlang, in a secluded village in the north, and the location of the other location is in a university. This should be the first shot of the movie, but it will be shot at the end .

In order to facilitate the shooting, the crew simply rented a small yard locally to store photographic equipment and costume props.Usually, the rest of the crew is to return to the nearest five-star hotel in the urban area.

Wen Jianing has his own room, but most of the time he lives in Lu Jinlang's room.

The first scene of the exterior scene was filmed at night. Wen Jianing was about to climb out from the fence of a family's yard. Jian Jun was waiting for him outside and reached out to pick him up.

Because it was summer in the movie, Wen Jianing was wearing a cartoon T-shirt with a pair of knee-length shorts underneath, and his legs were dangling on the wall.

Jian Jun held out his hand and told him to jump.

He shook his head.

Jian Jun smiled, "It's okay, you can dance." The smile was gentle and kind.

Wen Jianing looked at him, took a deep breath and jumped into Jian Jun's arms.

Jian Jun couldn't stand still, and was thrown to the ground by him. Wen Jianing raised his head from his shoulders, his cheek brushed against his profile, his skin was smooth and pliable.Jian Jun was still in a daze, but Wen Jianing had already stood up and stretched out his hand to pull him up.

Under the light, Wen Jianing was panting slightly, his lips were bright red, Jian Jun took a look and turned his eyes away.

He knows that he is not gay. He has never had any thoughts about men since he was a child. He also had a girlfriend in college, although they broke up later.But he just couldn't help feeling strange about Wen Jianing. If he had to pursue this strangeness, it would be that Wen Jianing made him feel a sense of gender ambiguity. This feeling was not because of Wen Jianing's speech and behavior , but from the physical contact between two people, but there is a lot of physical contact in this drama.

Jian Jun felt that he was distracted, but this distraction did not make him happy, because it affected his acting.

Until lunch at noon the next day, Jian Jun was still a little absent-minded.

Wen Tinghuan didn't know what he was thinking, and said to him: "If you have any problems with acting, you can ask Xin Hang, he is your senior brother, he should teach you."

Now Wen Tinghuan and Jian Jun are getting acquainted, Jian Jun is an obedient child again, Wen Tinghuan gradually starts to like him, and really wants to help him.

In fact, Jian Jun's head was a little messed up, and he couldn't figure out what he was thinking, so he went to Wen Jianing's room that night.He knocked on the door outside, but there was no movement in the room.

When he gave up and turned to leave, he saw the door of the next room opened, and Lu Jinlang and Wen Jianing came out one after the other.

Wen Jianing saw Jian Jun standing at his door, so he asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Jian Jun was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Going out?"

Wen Jianing was putting on his coat, and it looked like the two of them were about to go out.

Lu Jinlang nodded, "A friend asked me to meet up."

In this case, Jian Jun didn't have the nerve to say anything else, he said to Wen Jianing: "It's nothing, let's talk about it when we shoot tomorrow."

Wen Jianing said hello.

Seeing Jian Jun leave, Lu Jinlang said to Wen Jianing: "Do you think he will get into the drama too deeply?"

Wen Jianing gave him a strange look, "I don't think there is anything he can get into the drama too deeply?"

Lu Jinlang smiled, "I'm just talking casually."

They went out so late, in fact, Lu Jinlang accepted an invitation from an old friend, that person was the director of the movie "The Showdown" back then, and his name was Xie Ruoming.

If it wasn't for Xie Ruoming's film back then, Wen Jianing wouldn't have won the Best Actor Award at the Academy Awards.For Xie Ruoming, he has always been very grateful. When he came to the stage to accept the award, Xie Ruoming was the first one on the thank you list.

Xie Ruoming has a good personal relationship with him and Lu Jinlang, but he and Lu Jinlang are not close friends.

Wen Jianing still remembers eating supper with Xie Ruoming occasionally at that time. Xie Ruoming would mention Lu Jinlang, saying that he and Lu Jinlang were worthy people, and he thought they would become friends through this drama.

But there was none at that time, and now that I think about it, there is probably still some competitive psychology at work.He has been competing with Lu Jinlang all the time, and Lu Jinlang probably has this kind of mentality in it, so the relationship between the two of them can be said to be ordinary, not even ordinary friends.

If Wen Jianing hadn't become like this, and his status and status were far from Lu Jinlang's, probably Lu Jinlang would never have any thoughts about him.

Tonight, Xie Ruoming was originally only contacting Lu Jinlang.

Xie Ruoming, who was also in the city, heard that Lu Jinlang was filming here, so he called him to go out for a drink. The address was a well-known local music bar.There used to be a resident singer in the bar, and now she has become a first-line female singer in China. The bar has also become famous for a while. Many tourists from other places like to sit in this bar and have a glass of wine.

And Wen Jianing was brought there by Lu Jinlang.Lu Jinlang has always been willing to support him in his career, and he will definitely not let Wen Jianing miss this opportunity to meet a great director and establish a personal relationship.

Although Xie Ruoming himself is well-known in the circle, he seldom appears on camera.If he was alone, he would definitely be sitting in the bar lobby to watch the singer's performance, but today, considering Lu Jinlang's inconvenience, he specially asked for a relatively secluded small private room.The private room is not completely separated from the outside. Although the partition is made so that passers-by cannot see the inside clearly, but sitting in the private room, you can also hear the performance of the singer outside. If you choose the angle, you can still see it. Get the stage direction.

Lu Jinlang and Wen Jianing went in one after the other, one was wearing sunglasses and the other was wearing a peaked cap, but no one recognized them.

Xie Ruoming saw Lu Jinlang first, stood up and shook hands with him, then smiled and invited him to sit down.Then Wen Jianing came into the private room.

"This is..." Xie Ruoming didn't recognize Wen Jianing at first.

But even if he could recognize him, he was not familiar with Wen Jianing, and maybe Ke Xinhang might not even be able to pronounce the three words correctly.He has spent most of these years with his wife and daughter in New Zealand, and he doesn't pay much attention to the domestic entertainment industry, nor is he interested in watching hot news online.My biggest hobbies are painting and traveling.

So he would not know the relationship between Lu Jinlang and the young man in front of him.

Lu Jinlang took the initiative to introduce to Xie Ruoming: "This is Ke Xinhang, the male lead of the movie I am directing now."

Xie Ruoming quickly extended his hand to shake Wen Jianing's hand, and at the same time was looking at Wen Jianing, as if he was a little surprised that Lu Jinlang would choose such a beautiful actor.

Sometimes directors care more about temperament than appearance when choosing actors. The reason why an actor who is too beautiful is easy to be regarded as a vase is because the appearance will distract the audience's attention, let alone pay attention to the actor's acting skills.

Wen Jianing was a little excited when he saw Xie Ruoming, he hid it well, shook Xie Ruoming's hand firmly, and said, "Director Xie, hello."

Xie Ruoming is a gentle person. Although he initially defined today's gathering as a private gathering between himself and Lu Jinlang, he didn't understand the purpose of bringing an outsider here, but since everyone has already come, Xie Ruoming also readily accepted and invited the two People sat down and asked them what they were drinking.

Lu Jinlang glanced at the wine list, and said to Wen Jianing: "You should stop drinking, you didn't eat much for dinner."

Wen Jianing nodded and ordered a non-alcoholic drink.

Xie Ruoming looked at the two of them, and somewhat understood in his heart.In the past, Lu Jinlang had never intentionally concealed his sexual orientation in front of Xie Ruoming, but only brought someone to appear in front of him, this was the first time.

The bar environment was not noisy, but singers soon began to sing, singing English songs with soft tunes.The lighting is also soft and warm, with a golden halo. This environment is very suitable for chatting. Obviously, Xie Ruoming invited Lu Jinlang out for chatting.Two old friends met by chance in different places by chance.

Wen Jianing didn't talk much.In the past, he would have a lot to say to Xie Ruoming, but this occasion is obviously not suitable, and Xie Ruoming may not have anything to say to him.

In the beginning, the two of them talked the most about the movie that Lu Jinlang is currently filming.

Xie Ruoming was very curious about why Lu Jinlang became interested in making movies.

Lu Jinlang said: "When I have acted a lot, I can't help but want to make a work by myself. It is not influenced by others, and it is a complete expression of the work in my head."

Xie Ruoming smiled and raised his glass, "This is the desire to create."

Lu Jinlang touched him with a wine glass.

Xie Ruoming looked at Wen Jianing again, and asked Lu Jinlang, "The male lead you personally selected?"

Lu Jinlang nodded, "Best newcomer at this year's Academy Awards."

"Oh!" Xie Ruoming suddenly recalled, "It turned out to be you. I just said I saw you somewhere, but I didn't remember it for a while."

Xie Ruoming is still paying attention to such large awards as the Academy Awards, but he has never watched "Dream of Spring" directed by Cao Songquan, so he has not left a deep impression on Wen Jianing.

Now that Lu Jinlang took the initiative to mention it, he also remembered it.

Xie Ruoming changed his mind about Wen Jianing in an instant. At first he thought that the young man in front of him was just a newcomer deliberately selected by Lu Jinlang for the movie. He even had some doubts when he discovered the subtle relationship between the two just now, but now he heard that the other party He was the best newcomer at the Academy Awards, and he immediately began to believe in Lu Jinlang's choice.Because the professional judges of the Academy Award would not award such a golden man with a high gold content to an actor who only has a good face. He must have his own advantages.

At this time, Xie Ruoming even thought that he could find the movie "Dream of Spring" and watch it.

He chatted with Wen Jianing for a few words, and the atmosphere became more harmonious and natural.

After chatting for about half an hour, Xie Ruoming mentioned a name while finishing the wine in the glass in front of him: "Wen Jianing is really a pity."

Xie Ruoming went back to New Zealand after the filming of "The Duel" was over, and there have been no new works in these years.

Wen Jianing was nominated for the Golden Statue Awards when he died unexpectedly, but he missed the awards ceremony because his wife was sick and hospitalized.Until Wen Jianing was buried, he had no chance to come back.

This is the first time since then that he sat down and chatted with Lu Jinlang about Wen Jianing.

Lu Jinlang responded calmly to this as always, but the person he was talking about looked at the glass in front of him, a little dazed.

People like to say "Wen Jianing is a pity", but in fact, if there is Wen Jianing, the world will still change, and batches of newcomers will emerge in the entertainment industry.From the mourning event specially prepared for him in the second year, maybe the next time no one will remember it until the tenth anniversary of Wen Jianing's death.Is it the fiftieth anniversary next time?No, probably not many people will recognize him in 50 years.

When Xie Ruoming and Lu Jinlang talked about Wen Jianing, Lu Jinlang always said that Wen Jianing is a very good actor, but that's all.Xie Ruoming tried to make them understand each other better, but it was unsuccessful. Now that Wen Jianing is gone, Xie Ruoming mentions it again, and the rest is nothing but sighs.

However, as soon as Xie Ruoming mentioned Wen Jianing's name, Lu Jinlang turned his head and glanced at the people around him, seeing him pinching the rim of the wine glass with his finger, he seemed a little dazed.

Xie Ruoming hadn't been able to find anyone to say these words for many years. Now when he saw Lu Jinlang, he couldn't stop saying: "At that time, he was very serious about making movies, and he also liked acting. If he was still alive, he probably had more than that. Achievement."

How much more can there be?If Wen Jianing hadn't died, "October Fireworks" would be his play, and he might not have a chance to win another Academy Award. Lu Jinlang's international award might be his.

No one knows whether Lu Jinlang is willing to admit it, but now he just gave a soft "hmm", "He should have a better development."

Xie Ruoming has been feeling emotional.

And Wen Jianing sat on the side, listening silently, his fingers kept rubbing the rim of the cup, he wanted to hear more from Xie Ruoming, because he hadn't recalled the past for too long, and gradually began to forget it.

Suddenly, Lu Jinlang stretched out his hand to hold his hand, and changed the subject at an ingenious timing, and asked Xie Ruoming, "Any plans for the future?"

Now that Xie Ruoming has returned to China, he probably has new ideas. After resting for so long, it's time to plan a new play.

Hearing Lu Jinlang's question, Xie Ruoming smiled and asked him, "What? Do you have a schedule?"

Lu Jinlang is very picky about accepting movies now, even if everything suits him well, he just needs to say that he wants to take a break, but no one can force him to come out to film, but he is still somewhat interested in Xie Ruoming's movies.

"After the filming of my film is over, there is still a long period of post-production," Lu Jinlang explained, without rejecting it outright.

Xie Ruoming waved his hand, "No rush, the preliminary preparation is still very long, I just have a preliminary idea now, and I haven't found a suitable person to write the script."

Lu Jinlang picked up his wine glass and clinked with him, "Remember to let me know when the time comes."

Xie Ruoming said, "Definitely."

Wen Jianing knew that Lu Jinlang had dismissed Xie Ruoming's topic just now, and it was impossible for Xie Ruoming to continue talking to Lu Jinlang about Wen Jianing endlessly, and his mood was obviously depressed for a moment.

Lu Jinlang, who was holding his hand, probably sensed it.

After chatting with Xie Ruoming all night, Lu Jinlang saw that the time was about the same, so he said goodbye with Wen Jianing. They still have a shooting task tomorrow morning.

It was Lu Jinlang who drove the car when he came out, and Lu Yun'an was not called to come with him, and when he went back, Wen Jianing, who hadn't been drinking, was driving instead.

On the way, Wen Jianing seemed a little dull.

Lu Jinlang stretched out his hand, stroked his head gently, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Wen Jianing seemed a little inexplicable, glanced at him and said, "It's nothing."

Lu Jinlang drank some wine, became a little excited, and said to him, "Did you feel uncomfortable when you heard Director Xie mention Wen Jianing today?"

"Why do I feel uncomfortable?" Wen Jianing asked him.

Lu Jinlang said: "Because you used to admire him so much, you will feel bad now, right?"

Wen Jianing shook his head, "No, I didn't. What about you, what do you think of him?"

Lu Jinlang was silent for a while, and said to Wen Jianing: "You asked me this question in the past."

Wen Jianing said softly: "Really? When?"

Lu Jinlang inserted his fingers into his hair, letting the strands of hair slide out from between his fingers, and said, "More than once, why do you mention him over and over again?"

Wen Jianing said: "Because I don't want to forget him."

"Xinhang," Lu Jinlang called his name, he has always been gentle, but that must rule out the influence of alcohol on him, he said, "I don't think Wen Jianing is an obstacle between us until now gone."

Wen Jianing obviously didn't drink, but at that moment, he had a kind of alcohol rushing to his head, and he had the urge to say those words, and he said: "You are wrong, he will always be there, all his life."

Lu Jinlang withdrew his hand.

And Wen Jianing parked the car on the side of the road, and he said to Lu Jinlang, "Because I am Wen Jianing."
