The host of the premiere was a beautiful lady, well dressed and with a soft voice.The hostess did not say too many meaningless words before the opening of the movie, but told all the media and fans present in a gentle voice to watch this not-quiet movie with a quiet heart.

The story unfolds in the flames of war. In the picture, the sky seems to be burning red, and most of the sky is covered with thick fire clouds. Under the clouds, in the palace, the mountains and rivers are overturned, and the country has changed hands.Crown Prince Lu Jingrong stood in the hall wearing armor, surrounded by officials who had fled in a hurry. His elderly father fainted from fright and was taken away by the eunuchs.He was the only one who stayed in the palace to preside over the overall situation—Wang Mingwang, who used to have a friendship with the old emperor, had a different surname.With an army of [-], he rushed all the way into the palace, just to change this country's surname.

"His Royal Highness!"

The young princess concubine came running from outside the hall.The demeanor that belonged to the ladies and famous families in the past has disappeared, and there is only this woman's unshakable worry between her brows.

"His Royal Highness, please leave the palace before King Ming's army has entered the palace! Your brothers and sisters either abandoned their dignity and joined King Ming as dogs or horses, or died for the country and died in battle. Now... now Don't even lose you!"

"Princess Princess..."

"His Royal Highness, she bluntly said that being able to marry His Royal Highness in this life is already a blessing from her previous life. Even if she can't watch His Highness Crown Prince enthroned as emperor with her own eyes, I still hope that His Highness can live a safe life...National enmity, family hatred, don't worry. Don't forget, but please don't disappoint the wishes of the soldiers." The young concubine smiled softly and bowed straight down, "Please leave the palace, Your Highness!"

Outside the main hall, screams could already be heard from a distance.Sweat began to break out on the crown prince's forehead: "His Royal Highness, please leave the palace!" She raised her head slightly, and under the candlelight in the palace, her face was shiny and white, but her eye sockets were covered with blue marks .

"If I leave, you..."

The exclamation was getting closer and closer, and it seemed that they could reach the main hall with just a few more steps.Although the concubine concubine wanted to let the prince leave quickly, she couldn't do it at this time.She stood up and pushed the prince to hide in the corner.

"His Royal Highness, if there is an afterlife, I politely say that I will be husband and wife with you for the rest of my life."

The picture soon changed to a traitor breaking into the hall, finding the young and beautiful princess and concubine, intending to get involved.The crown prince would rather die than obey, she slammed her head against the big pillar in the hall.

The mountains and rivers were overturned, and his lover died tragically. Lu Jingrong went from being the crown prince of a country to the prince of a subjugated country in an instant.Under the cover of the old minister, Lu Jingrong escaped from the palace alone, and ended up living a life of ups and downs.In order to be able to return to his homeland one day, he endured humiliation and stole a living, begging all the way from the imperial city all the way westward.The new emperor ascended the throne and pardoned the world, but he couldn't pardon those civil servants and generals who died tragically under the blade of the rebel army, and those innocent palace people.

Just as the crowd watching the movie faintly suppressed sobs, in the screen, Lu Jingrong, who seemed like an ant among the refugees, entered the border of a neighboring country, met the King Yin who happened to establish a mansion on the border, and became a servant of the king's mansion.He climbed all the way from a servant to a high position and became a general.

The climax of the movie occurred in the war between the two countries ten years later.

Lu Jingrong, who had become a general under King Yin's command, mounted his horse with a saber and led [-] cavalry, and slashed off the generals who had rebelled and now became important ministers of the new king.On the day when soldiers approached the city, Lu Jingrong sat on the horse and looked up at the city on the border of his homeland, as if it had been a lifetime ago.

The subsequent battle was overwhelming. Lu Jingrong took the army given to him by the King of Yin and fought all the way. After winning three border cities of the old country in a row, the two countries negotiated peace.

Seeing Sheng Boyong, who was wearing heavy armor, walked up the steps step by step, and slowly walked into the hall.Shen He couldn't help taking a deep breath.

The music in the picture began to change differently. King Yin stood under the emperor, looked at him and said with a smile, "General Lu, Father knows that the peace talks between the two countries are due to your contribution. So , Father would like to ask you, but what do you want?"

Lu Jingrong's voice was deep and slow.He said that he didn't want anything else, but only one of the three ceded border cities.

This turning point not only surprised Yin Wang, but also made fans and the media who watched the movie at the premiere exclaim.The film's confidentiality work has been done well from the start of filming to the final publicity, and the plot content has not been leaked before today's premiere.Therefore, everyone was surprised to see the development of the plot going straight down. They never thought that it would be such a development.

Shen He understood the plot.

He is the villain in this movie, Shi Ziyang, the legitimate son of King Ming who has shown his face from the very beginning.Lu Jingrong's father, the old emperor, had a friendship with King Ming. Shi Ziyang and Lu Jingrong grew up together, and they didn't part ways until they were ten years old.Unexpectedly, when Lu Jingrong escaped from the palace and looked back at his homeland again, he would just see Shi Ziyang coming on horseback.

And ten years later, Shi Ziyang died in battle.Lu Jingrong got the border town of his home country, guarding that city and the lonely grave of his old friends, watching the sun rise and set, and also watching the neighboring two countries no longer cause chaos at the border.

When the movie's ending song played slowly, and the subtitles slowly released the names of the actors and crew members on the screen, the movie viewing scene was silent until there were sparse applause, and everyone seemed to come back to their senses. Started the standing ovation.

First Young Master Chen stood and applauded excitedly.Although the plot of this movie is a bit bloody, the war scenes are really well shot, and the box office will not be too low at first glance.Especially when the hostess invited the lead actor to the stage to meet the media and fans, Young Master Chen shouted excitedly.

On the big screen at the end of the movie, a line of words appeared——

"Director Shen Congzhi, starring Sheng Boyong, Zhou Mingfang, Song Lin".

The premiere event on stage was not very attractive to Shen He.He kept looking at the name on the screen until he heard a familiar voice mention it, then he shifted his gaze to the person who spoke.

Sheng Boyong stood beside the director, and on his right stood Zhou Mingfang, who played King Yin.

"...This movie is just like what director Shen said. Many things happened during the shooting, unpleasant and pleasant. I joined the crew halfway, but before I joined the crew, I actually missed it because of the schedule. Yes. Like many people here, I am a fan of Song Lin, and I have watched every movie and TV series of Brother Song." Sheng Boyong paused, "So, when Director Shen found me at first, I was very excited. It's a pity that I didn't immediately agree to participate in the performance. Fortunately, an accident happened in the middle, which gave me the opportunity to cooperate with Song Ge."

His words made the audience smile knowingly.Everyone knows what happened during the filming of "Motherland".But when he mentioned Song Lin who had passed away, many people stopped laughing and looked at each other regretfully.

After the premiere, most of the audience left quickly.They want to block outside, hoping to block the leading actors, and a small number of people walk slowly, turning around every step, as if waiting to see people walking back to the stage.

Only Shen He was still sitting there without any movement.

"Shen Xiaohe, are you still leaving?" Young Master Chen got up, saw Shen He sitting there with his head bowed beside him, rubbed his nose and asked, "I know you have a good relationship with Song Lin, don't you just look at this It's a sad movie to watch..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen He stood up from his seat, as if his emotions were finally withdrawn from the movie: "I'm going somewhere, you go back first."

"Oh, where are you going?"

Shen He didn't give Young Master Chen any response.Passing through the crowded cinema hall, he stood under the steps, took a deep breath, turned his head and found an alley by the side of the road and squatted down.

When filming "Old Country", he also told He Tian with a smile that Shi Ziyang would not have died, because his lover turned against him and changed the protective mirror on his armor. The feeling of being betrayed by a lover is too complicated when a friend shoots an arrow through the breastplate.That's what he said to He Tian, ​​but he himself quickly tasted the feeling of being betrayed.

The phone in my pocket vibrated.Shen He raised his head, looked at Sheng Boyong's name on the screen, and suddenly wanted to cry.

He didn't see it, but at the entrance of this alley, Sheng Boyong stood upright wearing sunglasses, watched his movements, and silently turned off the phone in his hand.

Meng Zhang was woken up.

It has been two or three years since he moved to this place after his divorce, and he was woken up at five or six o'clock every day by the noise of the host and the west.

He yawns, scratches his stomach, gets up and brushes his teeth.While brushing his teeth, Meng Zhang opened the rusty window and looked downstairs.The eldest sister who sells rice has already set up a stall on the side of the road, chasing flies away and chatting with others.The child going to school, with a bag on his back, climbed onto the tricycle nimbly, directing his white-haired grandpa to send him to school.He spit toothpaste foam into the sink, and shouted at the eldest sister downstairs: "Sister Taohua, save a share, I'll come down and get it later."

The eldest sister who sells rice cakes yelled something, and when Meng Zhang went downstairs, the rice cakes were already wrapped and hot in the rice bucket.The weather at the end of December was very cold, and it was a happy thing for Meng Zhang to have a hot breakfast.He threw down the money, shrunk his neck and ran upstairs. The lady on the first floor threw her arms around her hips and shouted, "Damn it, the stairs are going to collapse under your step!"

Close the door, and pretend that you can't hear anyone scolding or shouting outside.Meng Zhang took off his shoes by stepping on his heels, shivered and sat down in front of the computer desk.

Since the divorce, all his wealth has been swept away, and it is even more difficult to make a comeback.For a year, Meng Zhang couldn't cheer himself up, and was too embarrassed to ask his old friends from the past for help, so he stayed in this place for two or three years, changing jobs one after another, and none of them lasted long.Going back into the circle with such a downcast look will almost disgrace him for three lifetimes.

Just as he was thinking, Meng Zhang bit down the fried rice in his hand. Before he could taste the taste of the inferior meat floss mixed with rice, someone knocked rhythmically on the iron-covered door.

Most of the people living here are migrant workers from their hometowns. They can't afford a house or rent a good house in the urban area, so they live in the urban-rural fringe.On weekdays, let alone knocking on the door, even if you walk up the stairs, you still want to step on the couch.

Suddenly hearing such a polite knock on the door, Meng Zhang was taken aback.Thinking that he hasn't committed any crimes recently, it shouldn't be the police station who came to invite him to drink tea. He didn't bother to swallow the rice in his mouth. He walked to the door a few steps, opened the door and shouted indistinctly : "Who is it?"

The young man standing outside the door was wearing clean clothes and a pair of elegant glasses.Seeing him open the door, a gentle expression appeared on the young man's face: "Brother Meng, I'm Song Lin."

Meng Zhang sprayed all the fried rice to the side with one mouthful.

In broad daylight... hell?
