dear dreamer

Kong Yu played one of the two teachers, this is what the director told Deng Tingge after the audition.

"At his age, he should try to transform." The producer sat next to the director and ate biscuits. "It's impossible to keep making brainless idol dramas. Shhh, let me keep my voice down."

Deng Tingge thought, I heard it, the two people standing beside you heard it.

However, neither of them, including him, said anything.

Afterwards, the producer said something, which was related to Kong Yu and Huatian Media.

Only then did Deng Tingge know that Kong Yu had originally left Huatian Media.A few years ago, Huatian Media and the government jointly organized a model competition, and Kong Yu was the third runner-up in that year's model competition.The champion and the runner-up both developed on the runway, only Kong Yu entered the entertainment circle.The producer said that it was because the vice president of Huatian Media, who was the judge of the model competition at the time, called Kong Yu by name and asked him to sign with Huatian's agency.

What made the vice president make this decision was that Luo Hengqiu, the second ancestor of Huatian Media at that time, who had returned to China for the summer vacation, said a word: "This person is good, I like it."

Deng Tingge thought to himself, would seniors praise others so directly?

But the producer said convincingly: "You are not from this circle, you don't know. Kong Yu and Mr. Luo, are Mr. Luo? They are very close. Kong Yu was secretly photographed more than once appearing in the home."

The director said don't talk about these useless things, as long as you can make this scene well.

Deng Tingge smiled on his face, and felt that it was really useless to talk about it.He remembered that he had been invited by Luo Hengqiu to his house to attend his birthday party.He made many circles outside that luxurious residential area and was completely lost.Later he heard from Luo Hengqiu's friend that Luo Hengqiu waited for him at the door of the house with an umbrella for two hours, but no one came.When I went to school the next day, Luo Hengqiu didn't say anything else, just asked him: Do you want to buy a mobile phone?

Does he still live in that villa area?Deng Tingge thought.It was strange, he felt that there were suddenly many questions he wanted to ask Luo Hengqiu, about where he lived, and about Kong Yu.

But after learning that Kong Yu was also in that crew, Luo Hengqiu was a little absent-minded about his questions.

Deng Tingge felt that his brother might be lying to him.

The meal was messy, and Zhong Xing was the happiest person during the meal.Luo Hengqiu sat beside Deng Tingge, he didn't seem to have any appetite, and only ate some simple food.Deng Tinge scooped up the soup himself, and handed him a bowl.Luo Hengqiu was slightly taken aback, and his hands were still shaking when he thanked him.

After eating, Zhong Xing started chatting contentedly.

"Isn't it fun to act, Xiao Deng?" He said, "I have also been on stage before, playing "Thunderstorm". The feeling of standing on the stage is indeed different. It seems that it is not me who is talking, but another person."

Deng Tingge deeply agrees with his idea.

"Creating is very difficult, but it is very easy to stop creating." Zhong Xing said, "It's just as easy to kill your own talent. Xiao Deng, I admire you very much, don't let me be fooled."

He paused and said, "Don't let Lao Luo down."

Luo Hengqiu and Deng Tingge looked up at the same time and glanced at each other.Deng Tingge was at a loss, while Luo Hengqiu wanted to take a roll of tape and directly seal Zhong Xing's mouth.

Zhong Xing, who had achieved his goal, said "feeling warm and thinking about lust", checked out and left.

Luo Hengqiu sent Deng Tingge back to school, and Deng Tingge talked to him differently.

It rained heavily halfway, and the world was confused.Luo Hengqiu slowed down logically, feeling very grateful for the rain.

Deng Tingge asked him where he lived, and Luo Hengqiu said.

"You didn't live there before." Deng Tingge said, "When did you move?"

"Do you still remember?" Luo Hengqiu said with a smile, "You didn't make it that time, I thought you forgot about it. I moved out two years ago, and it's more comfortable to live by myself."

"Then you don't want to cross the bridge when you go home?" Deng Tingge said, "It's quite windy."

The raindrops followed the wind, pattering and hitting the car window hard. The scenery outside the window was blurred for a moment, leaving only a vast expanse that could not be seen.

Too dangerous.Driving in this weather is very unsafe.

Deng Tingge thought in his heart, and said with a movement of his mouth: "Brother, why don't you just stay in our dormitory for one night."

Luo Hengqiu almost couldn't hold the steering wheel in his hand.

"My three roommates all went out to film, and they were not in the dormitory for more than half a month. You can sleep in their beds." Deng Tingge said.

Luo Hengqiu: "..."

Deng Tingge: "Oh, if you don't like sleeping in someone else's bed, just squeeze with me. I won't kick you down."

Luo Hengqiu: "..."

After finishing speaking, Deng Tingge saw that Luo Hengqiu didn't respond, and finally remembered that his senior brother liked men, so he was embarrassed for a while.

"Thank you." Luo Hengqiu also noticed his embarrassment, so he smiled, "But I recognize both the bed and the pillow. I'm not used to sleeping anywhere except my own."

Deng Tingge's train of thought was immediately distracted by this sentence.

"Then what do you do when you go on a business trip or travel? Bring a pillow? Bring... sheets?"

Luo Hengqiu: "..."

He had no choice but to continue this lame lie without changing his face: "Yes. So I have at least six or seven similar pillows at home, and I only carry one when I go out, and keep the rest for emergencies... "

Deng Tingge was worried until midnight, when he received a text message from Luo Hengqiu reporting his safety, he finally settled down.

Liu Haojun's dormitory is playing World of Warcraft together. He doesn't have a computer, and he thinks it's noisy, so he comes to Deng Tingge's dormitory to sleep with a pillow and quilt.Seeing him carrying his pillow and quilt, Deng Tingge thought of Luo Hengqiu for no reason.

Luo Hengqiu, who was wearing a suit and shirt, hugged the pillow and quilt... This scene is really weird.

Deng Tingge thought about it for a moment, and felt that it was unrealistic, thinking that he should be wearing pajamas.However, he had never seen what Luo Hengqiu looked like in pajamas.His intuition told him that people like Luo Hengqiu would not walk around the house in big underpants like he and Liu Haojun did.Pajama set?Nightgown?Deng Tingge felt curious for no reason.

"Deng, I think your brother is really kind to you." Liu Haojun read the book for a while, then suddenly raised his head and said.

Deng Tingge was still thinking about Luo Hengqiu's state at home, so he answered him casually.

"Why don't I have such a senior brother." Liu Haojun said regretfully, "Your senior brother sent you back in such heavy rain, and I went to deliver supper to Nian Shuang in such heavy rain. We are all hard-working people."

Deng Tingge felt something was wrong no matter what he heard: "What are you pretending to be Lin Daiyu? Of course you want to please Lin Nianshuang after chasing her. My senior brother is called righteousness."

"Does your brother have a girlfriend? Several people in the drama club have asked me." Liu Haojun put away the book, went to the door and turned off the light.

"Yes, yes." Deng Tingge said, "Don't talk about the red line. My brother is very demanding."

He rambled nonsense, saying that Luo Hengqiu had high vision, that there were many rules in the family, and that he had strict demands on his girlfriend.I have said it several times, and I am a little convinced.

Liu Haojun listened to what he said so seriously, and he believed it a little bit: "Okay, I believe it. Why are you so irritable today? By the way, what about you, someone in Lin Nianshuang's dormitory asked me if you have a girlfriend."

"I don't. You know."

Liu Haojun thought for a while, then whispered: "You don't have one, so what do you do when you usually want that?"

Deng Tingge laughed loudly: "Fix it yourself. My right hand is very powerful, do you want to try it?"

Liu Haojun said, squirm, what the hell did you eat tonight?

"Big Wave" will start soon.Deng Tingge had to take care of the rehearsal of the graduation drama, and at the same time research the thesis, and had to spare time to film, so he had to quit his job in the hotel and car wash.Long Jie, Xiao Zhu and others were very sorry, and they all said that without the delivery of Deng Tingge wearing a vest, the number of customers ordering food dropped sharply, and the turnover dropped by 30%.

Deng Tingge said yes, give me 30% of the 50%, and I will continue to work.

The boss patted him on the shoulder very simply: "Xiao Deng, let's go, come back often."

The job in the car wash was quite resigned.Deng Tingge works here for one day, which can cover the two days of the crew of "The Great Wave".

Although the crew's investment was high, most of it was put on the main characters and the production team, otherwise they wouldn't have found so many acting students to play the roles.Deng Tingge knew in his heart that students like them were cheap, hardworking, and their performances were well-regulated, and occasionally there were surprises. They were really the best choice.

The drama script was adapted into a one-hour short play. The adaptor was not Chen Yu, but he did his best to restore the essence of Chen Yu's original play.Deng Tingge acted quite freely.On the second day after joining the group, Deng Tingge met Kong Yu.

His impression of Kong Yu was very vague.A person from the Qing Dynasty with long braids and half of his head exposed, or a hero with a sword on his back, or a second-generation ancestor who drives a sports car around the campus and leans up when he sees a beautiful girl—— Kong Yu has acted in many plays, but he has no masterpieces, so what he thinks of is also some unclear impressions.

In addition to the scene in the hotel that day, and the words said by the producer, Deng Tingge unconsciously put Kong Yu in the group of actors who rely on financial backing.

As soon as this definition came out, Deng Tingge instantly thought of who the financial backer Kong Yu was relying on, and immediately felt uncomfortable.

Kong Yu came early and was very polite. He brought some things to the crew, even the dozen or so students.Deng Tingge was nervous: he didn't know whether he should pretend to recognize Kong Yu or not.

However, Kong Yu passed by him three times and said a few words to him face to face, without showing any sign of thinking of him at all.

It was only then that Deng Tingge realized that he himself remembered him to death, but they didn't remember him at all.

For Kong Yu, he doesn't need to remember the waiter in the hotel who brought condoms to his door that day.Sitting on the sidelines, Deng Tingge watched Kong Yu and another actor playing the role of a teacher, and had to admit a fact: Even if Deng Tingge told Kong Yu his name today, Kong Yu might not remember him.

If people are popular, many people will be black.I usually read magazines and newspapers, saying that Kong Yu relied on selling himself to get to the top, or playing big names on the spot, or bad acting skills. Deng Tingge remembered that there would be one or two articles every month in the "Film and Television Circle Weekly" in the library.

He hasn't had the chance to see other things, but although Kong Yu's acting is not particularly brilliant, it is not as bad as the people who hate him say.

After more than an hour, everyone was sweating profusely.In order to restore the scene of that era as much as possible, the crew rented this dilapidated small auditorium. There is no air conditioner in the auditorium, and the fragile circuit can only support two ordinary lucky fans.Everyone was sweating profusely. Kong Yu and the other teacher needed to run and push with the students because of the scene. It was so hot that their make-up was worn out, and they had to touch it up every once in a while.

During the break, Deng Tingge sat and chatted with several students.None of them were from his school, and some were not even professional actors.Deng Tingge couldn't figure out the key to the selection of candidates: Didn't Zhong Xing tell himself at the time that he was looking for someone with a major in acting and drama experience?

Kong Yu was sitting on his chair, the assistant had a fan in his left hand and a small electric fan in his right hand, and he swung his bow left and right.

Deng Tingge went to the bathroom and came back, just in time to see Kong Yu slipping to the door of the auditorium to recite his lines.

There was still a bit of wind at the door, and Deng Tingge didn't really want to go in, so he stood under another tree and played with the snake.He was halfway through the game when suddenly a person stood in front of him.

"Hello." Kong Yu said, "You are studying acting, right?"

The greedy snake bumped into its own snake tail, gameover.

Deng Tingge quickly put away the phone: "Hello, yes."

Kong Yu was sitting next to him, looking eager for talent: "I just discovered during the audition that your sense of speaking lines is different from other people's. May I ask you a few questions?"

Deng Tingge was taken aback.Kong Yu's words overturned all his previous imagination about him.He seemed to see the proud and domineering statue in his heart shattering into pieces, and at this moment the young man sitting beside him with a sincere face suddenly became clear.

Deng Tingge's heart became hot, and he was very embarrassed by his previous speculation: "Needless to say, you are my senior. If you have any questions, we can discuss them together."

Kong Yu didn't talk nonsense with him, just smiled, opened the script and started asking him questions.

Kong Yu's acting skills were all learned after entering Huatian Media's agency company.He has average talent, fortunately he is willing to work hard, he is pleasing to the eye, and he has limited acting skills required by youth idol dramas, so he develops smoothly and becomes popular soon.

But the weakness of acting skills has always been brooding in his heart.

"The line class is a very important course." His acting teacher said, "It not only requires good physical strength, but also requires long-term practice. An actor with good line skills can recite a sad poem to people Laughing can also make a wedding speech tearful."

Kong Yu yearns for this kind of realm.Once you enter this circle and gain a certain popularity, you will naturally have some higher-level pursuits.Kong Yu knew that this was his shortcoming, so he worked even harder to fill it.In addition to reading books and practicing in class, he is also very good at asking others for advice.

For example, students like Deng Tingge who have not graduated from acting majors, he will not let them go.

Deng Tingge read his script and silently recited the lines that Kong Yu felt could not perform well several times, probably knowing where the problem lies.

"Our line teacher is very strict, and the content of the class is very detailed and cumbersome. In addition to the necessary physical exercises, we must also use different speech speeds, pitches and stresses to make the same lines express different emotions. "Deng Tingge said, "Will you feel bored when I say this?"

Kong Yu's eyes lit up: "No, you continue."

"I... I'm actually talking about my own opinions." Deng Tingge considered for a while, and continued, "Why do movies and TV often use close-ups, because many emotions can be revealed through people's facial expressions and even eyes. But Drama is different, it has a certain distance from the audience, at this time body movements and line skills are particularly important."

"But what we are filming now is a short play, not a drama. These two different performance methods, the lines of expression should be different, right?" Kong Yu said.

"There are many differences." Deng Tingge thought for a while.He has studied drama himself, but he also has a lot of unnaturalness when performing in front of the camera. "But one core is the same: the lines must have rhythm."

"I know this." Kong Yu said as he opened his own script, "but this rhythm is a bit difficult to grasp. For example, this sentence, the sentence the teacher said, 'You are going to die blindly'..."

"Look at where you put the accent." Deng Tingge tried to read it several times by himself. "Where you put the accent is where you put the emphasis of the lines. In fact, you can also see the actor's understanding of the script. What you pay attention to Is it the students, 'you', or their recklessness, or their end, 'death'?"

Kong Yu lowered his head and thought.

The weather was hot and the sun was fierce, and the light spots fell under the tree and fell on the two of them.Kong Yu thought seriously, Deng Tingge couldn't leave immediately, and sat beside him silently.

He thought that he might not like Kong Yu before, but now he is a little moved by his seriousness.

The reason why he doesn't like it is nothing more than the relationship between Luo Hengqiu and Kong Yu that he can't figure out, but this relationship has nothing to do with him.

Deng Tingge felt that it was very dangerous to think any further, so he quickly cut off this line of thinking by relying on his intuition.

At this time, out of the corner of his eye, he saw someone holding a camera at them at the back door of the auditorium.

Deng Tinge: "...Kong, Mr. Kong, someone is shooting you."

He didn't know how to address Kong Yu, but it should be right to praise someone.

Kong Yu didn't even raise his head: "It's not me, it's us."

Deng Tingge: "..."

Kong Yu: "Tomorrow there will be a picture of me and you on the entertainment news. Your face will be coded, but mine won't. The title is probably, um, 'Kong Yu was alone with a mysterious man at the filming scene, acting ambiguously'. "

Deng Tingge: "Σ(°△°|||)"

Kong Yu: "Or it's 'playing a big game again! Kong Yu scolded the new actor to tears'. There must be an exclamation point in the middle, otherwise I won't be able to imitate my fierce aura."

He looked up and spoke cheerfully, without any trouble or irritation on his face.

Deng Tingge: "..."

Kong Yu recited the two titles he thought of over and over according to the method of line practice he just said, smiling very happily.After laughing for a while, he suddenly stopped and stood up quickly: "Thank you, I understand. What's your name? Let's make friends."

Deng Tingge thought he could remember me this time.

Later, Deng Tingge felt that he should tell his brother about his filming and his feelings towards his friends: 【This film is very fresh and interesting.I met my brother's friend, Kong Yu is pretty good, not as bad as the media said. 】

Luo Hengqiu who received the text message was puzzled: "...???"
