dear dreamer

The bright red banner was hung up, and the dark background board was also erected.Deng Tingge stood frowning in the midst of the smoky towns and buildings. The drizzle was sticking to his face, making the already unclear background board look a bit dirty. After Deng Tingge took the photos, the ceremony was over , quietly ran to the edge of the background board, wiped off the raindrops on his sad face, and took a picture with his phone.

Hu Mu followed him over, but didn't see himself on the poster, so he wiped the word "Ruyan" away.

Before the launching ceremony of "Smoke", the sky was still clear and the sun was shining brightly and scorchingly hot, making people's faces covered with oil, powder and water.But as soon as Zhong Xing started to speak, light rain began to drip down.

The media reporters had all left, and Zhong Xing turned his head to see the male lead and male number two wiping diligently in front of the background board, feeling very relieved.

After Hu Mu erased the two big characters of the film title, he took a photo with Deng Tingge in front of the poster, which concluded the simple opening ceremony.

Because the box office of "Evaporation" was very poor, Zhong Xing's directorial ability has been questioned a lot.The opening ceremony this time was expected to be lively and lively, but Zhong Xing insisted on keeping it simple. "Money must be spent wisely." He said, "Don't be afraid of publicity. With the two of you, are you afraid that it won't work?"

Hu Mu didn't know what Deng Tingge thought, he felt that he had no appeal, and the focus of this publicity would definitely not fall on himself.

The heroine is Chi Xi, the leading actress in Zhong Xing's last romantic film, and her popularity is about the same as that of Hu Mu.Hu Mu looked at Deng Tingge with a solemn expression.

"What's wrong with you?" Deng Tingge asked.

"It's up to you." Hu Mu patted him on the shoulder.

Deng Tinge: "???"

Hu Mu followed Deng Tingge's car back.He said he could drive, so Chang Huan happily occupied the co-pilot and drove Deng Tingge to the back seat.

"Look at it, look at it." Chang Huan said, "Look at Xiaohu!"

"I can also drive, but you refused to let me drive." Deng Tingge said, "I have passed the driver's license test, so there is no use for it."

"Didn't you drive directly to the green belt in the four circles of Cairo Hengqiu that time?" Chang Huan said, "Is it because I don't let you drive or he doesn't want to drive for you?"

"...You." Deng Tingge turned to whisper, "It's fine if you don't tell him."

Hu Mu heard the two people talking happily, and while driving, he remembered the makeup photos he saw.

In "Like Smoke", he played a young man who met the little postman on a boat.When Hu Mu saw the effect of the fixed makeup, he was also taken aback: it was the first time he knew that he could be so sloppy.

The tangled hair stuck to the scalp because it had not been washed for a long time, the face and neck were all black, the lips were chapped and white, and only a pair of bloodshot eyes could barely see.The clothes on his body were filthy, and the trousers were one high and one low, and they were rolled up to the knees, and they were still dripping.The bare calf and arm were full of tiny wounds, the wound on the calf was soaked white by the salty sea water, the skin was already wrinkled, and there was a faint red line on the wound, it could be seen that the injured body was still alive.

Hu Mu felt a little strange when taking pictures.Even in "Evaporation", even if the young man he plays is down and out, he will not reveal a kind of dazed hopelessness.

Today, I saw the simple makeup photo and the poster of the single version of the character, and Hu Mu wanted to cherish it.He asked someone from the publisher to ask for a few small posters to keep by himself, but he didn't. Although the look was ugly, he liked it very much.

For a long time before, he filmed idol dramas.Slowly transforming from "Gu Dao Warm Heart", he once thought that his possibility of being an actor would be interrupted-but the world is indeed unpredictable.He's still an actor, and trying to stop showing off, honing his craft.

Deng Tingge chatted with Chang Huan for a while, and seeing Hu Mu's serious face, he leaned over and asked him, "By the way, your makeup photo, do you really think it's okay?"

"No problem." Hu Mu said, "It's fine."

Deng Tingge: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, Kong Yu must despise you. He especially likes good-looking people. When the movie is released, he sees you so sloppy and ugly, ah, sad, sad for you."

Hu Mu: "..."

Chang Huan rarely raised his forehead, feeling weak: "I'll say it again, I can't control who you are dating, but you must not make it public casually, at least let me know..."

Deng Tingge: "Understood."

Chang Huan: "It's you!"

The two started chatting again, Hu Mu thought for a while, and became a little interested in whether Kong Yu would dislike his appearance.

Kong Yu is also making a movie.Before starting the machine, he kept emphasizing mysteriously that "I signed a non-disclosure agreement", without revealing anything.

On the second day after the news of the opening ceremony of "Ru Yan", Kong Yu's movie was also launched.

Romantic films, the theme of the Republic of China, war and displacement, acquaintance and parting: the literary atmosphere of the title is so full of overflowing - "A Moment".

Zhong Xing took the newspaper and asked him: "Is that person from your family targeting me? Or is it targeting you?"

Hu Mu thought about it and said no. "No one can stop your way, Director Zhong. When it comes to commercial movies about love, who can compare to you?"

Zhong Xing felt good all over, with a smile on his face, and in a good mood, he invited the whole crew to have a meal.

He can take care of Zhong Xing's hair, but Hu Mu can't take care of his pimples.

He signed a non-disclosure agreement, so can't say.He listed Kong Yu's reasons for himself.He is the leading actor and I am the supporting role. Even if there is a conflict in the filming, it doesn't really matter much.Zhong Xing is good at this kind of film, even if the subject matter crashes, there will be no problem.

The male protagonist of "A Moment" is Kong Yu, who has become more and more famous recently. "There is no capital that can compare with them.Deng Tingge's last movie was "Long Time", which also had a good reputation and a poor box office. The public's expectations for him returning to work and starting filming are not particularly high.

When eating together, Hu Mu couldn't help asking Kong Yu.

"I signed a non-disclosure agreement." Kong Yu said, "And even if the subject matter is different, but the story is different, it shouldn't matter. Deng Tingge just came back to film, and you don't have much box office appeal. Apart from Zhong Xing, your movie still has Are there other competitive weights? So there is no possibility of us grabbing your box office."

Hu Mu said oh.

The same reason and words, saying it in my heart, and hearing Kong Yu say it, the feeling is really different.

He was not in a good mood, and was going home after a hasty appointment.Kong Yu noticed something wrong with him, pulled him and asked, "Aren't you happy?"

Hu Mu thought that it was not that he was unhappy, what you said was the truth, there is nothing to be unhappy about.

"No." He said, "I'll make an appointment next time. I'm filming tomorrow morning, so I'm going back."

Kong Yu stared at him for a while, then asked him: Did I say something wrong, sorry.

"No, no." Hu Mu hurriedly waved his hands.

He felt that Kong Yu did not say anything wrong, but that he was too petty.

Hu Mu, who suffered a little emotional setback, became the person who was scolded by Zhong Xing the most in the entire crew when he was working.

Most of the time, Zhong Xing's temper can be controlled.Occasionally, when there was an outbreak, Deng Tingge would yell "Call Dr. Xu", and it went smoothly the next day.But as soon as he meets Hu Mu, Zhong Xing's patience will drop significantly, and his irritability will continue to rise.

"He is impatient." Deng Tingge said, "He hopes you will perform well."

"Yeah." Hu Mu nodded, and continued to flip through the script sullenly.

He spent a period of time with Zhong Xing in the crew of "Evaporation".Although Zhong Xing was strict, Hu Mu knew that it was for his own good, so he also followed Zhong Xing's request; this time Zhong Xing was still strict, but Hu Mu found that he could not perform what Zhong Xing expected. Degree.This is the real reason for Zhong Xing's violent temper.

In "Like Smoke", he played a young man who smuggled to Hong Kong by hiding at the bottom of the cabin.The little postman sat next to him when he boarded the boat. The two were about the same age and from the same village, and secretly exchanged half a steamed bun.The level of portrayal of this character in the script is not rich, but Hu Mu has been pondering and researching for a long time.

Although the young man only spent a few months with the little postman, it is a very important metaphor in the movie.

There is anger and sadness in him, which is in sharp contrast to the postman's bewilderment and fear, and the choice of young people has also become an important reason why the postman chooses to return home when he is old.

There are two important scenes in the script that require Humu to explode with strong emotions.

The first scene takes place in the cabin.People without food and drinking water lie in the cabin and lick the sea water.When the little postman was brought on board by his relatives, he carried two dry steamed buns in his arms. He secretly shared half with the young man, and gave the remaining half to his elderly relatives.The remaining steamed bun was discovered by others, and they immediately started snatching it without any hesitation.

The young man stood in front of the postman and beat up a dozen people, dislocating his own wrist.

The second scene is much gentler. It is the scene of the young man saying goodbye to the postman.

The postman who has settled down tells the young man that he can help him find a job, but the young man tells the postman that he wants to go back.His family gave money, but in the end only the boat on which the young man was boarded left the port, and the rest were intercepted.The young man told the postman that he has parents and a younger sister who is nine years old this year, just the age when he clings to his elder brother.

The postman couldn't stop him, so he took out all the money on his body and stuffed it into his arms.When the young man was standing at the pier and was about to board the boat, he suddenly cried bitterly.He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the postman, thanking him, and told the postman his name and birthday, and asked him not to forget himself, and sprinkle himself a glass of water and wine when worshiping on festivals and festivals.

He knelt on the pier and cried loudly. Some of the people who passed by him walked forward indifferently, and some walked more and more slowly, and cried aloud.When they turned around, they all narrowly escaped death.

Hu Mu didn't perform well in the first scene, and after Zhong Xing talked with him in the second scene, he concluded that he must also not act well.

"What Zhong Xing means is that my anger and sadness are not in place." Hu Mu had no choice but to ask Deng Tingge for help.

Deng Tingge listened silently, didn't speak, and rubbed his chin to think.

"This role is not difficult. I think I have performed it. What's wrong?" Hu Mu squatted in front of him, looking at him pitifully.

Deng Tingge tugged at his uniform and sighed.

"What are you afraid of?" he asked, "Zhong Xing is right, it's not in place. Your character in "Vapor" is very depressed, but this movie requires your emotions to be exposed and explode. To show it, it's like a raging wind and a fire."

Deng Tingge looked around and pointed to the setting of the department store for him to see.

"Even similar emotions can be expressed in different ways in different environments." Deng Tingge said, "The more chaotic the outside world is, the more difficult it is for a person to control his emotions. His happiness, anger, and sadness will be expressed in different ways." It is expressed in a fairly direct way. A qualified actor should be able to open and close, but now you can only close, but you can't open wide."

"I'm not afraid of anything." Hu Mu said, "How can it be considered wide open?"

"It said in the script that when you said goodbye to me, you suddenly cried before finishing a sentence, and then immediately knelt down. Remember, the script described that your legs were weak. I think this is wide open: At that moment, the character didn't suppress his emotions. His reason and emotion told him that he had to go back to find his family members, but he would be afraid, sad, and fearful. This kind of tension and contradiction caused emotional discomfort Controlled. Have you ever seen a person who suddenly cried? It’s not common, but it’s very impressive. This kind of uncontrolled situation is rare, so you don’t have much experience, and I can understand it if you can’t act.”

Hu Mu thought and thought, and he understood his problem a little bit.

He couldn't let go of himself completely and put himself into a role.

Because of the unhappiness of the last date, Kong Yu rushed over to find him as soon as he had a rest day.

Hu Mu is still criticized by Zhong Xing, he still has no clue about where he can't let go.This distress made him more nervous than what Kong Yu said, so when he saw Kong Yu, the previous awkwardness had disappeared.

It's just that Kong Yu didn't know, and when he met, he hugged him tightly and said he wanted to comfort him.The two took advantage of the dusk and went out to climb mountains together.

The mountains are not high and there are not many people.Walking all the way up, a thin layer of sweat broke out, and my eyes were full of emerald green.The returning birds jumped up and down among the branches and leaves, chirping, and there was an indescribable tenderness between the heaven and the earth.

While resting on the stone bench by the road, Hu Mu told Kong Yu about his current problems.

"I'll tell you one thing, it's true." Kong Yu sat side by side with him, looking at the city under the mountain that was warmed by the sparse lights, "I used to film a lot of idol dramas, and then I wanted to change, so I went to class, Sometimes it’s still a class. Did Deng Tingge tell you how I met him? I also asked him about the lines. But now you don’t need to ask him about the lines, just ask me.”

When he was taking classes, he watched a documentary in a lecture theater.

Kong Yu still remembers the documentary titled "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang".There are no dialogues and music, all the scenes of the universe and the traces of human activities.Kong Yu, a class-crawler, sat in the last row. The curtains in the classroom were drawn tightly, and everyone seemed to be holding their breath, staring at the screen engrossed.

"When I first watched it, it was really..." Kong Yu clenched his fists, thinking hard about the appropriate words, "It's shocking, but it's not just shocking. In short, it's a very moving documentary. I even want to Crying. It’s great to see time, history, ignorance and holiness in the film.”

"Are you crying?" Hu Mu asked.

Kong Yu turned to look at him: "Do you think you should cry?"

Hu Mu thought for a while, then shook his head: "It shouldn't be. It's too rude. You still go to the class, and you are the only one crying in the classroom, wouldn't it be embarrassing?"

"Are you ashamed?" Kong Yu reached out to rub his head, kissed the messy hair, "Someone is crying."

Hu Mu smiled: "Is it a girl?"

"No. It's the teacher who showed the documentary, the teacher who taught that class." Kong Yu said.

The teacher who was over fifty took off his glasses, sat on the edge of the podium, and cried loudly.

The whole classroom looked at him in surprise.Kong Yu originally noticed that several students were also sobbing, but at this moment they seemed to be startled by the teacher.

"At the end, some students asked him what was wrong." Kong Yu looked at Hu Mu seriously, "I thought that old man would say some beautiful words, be shocked and moved, but he said I wanted to cry, so I cried .”

Hu Mu also looked at him, his eyes a little dazed.

"Cry when you want to cry, laugh when you want to laugh. This is not an easy thing. You think about whether it is impolite, and you think it would be too embarrassing to cry. I would too, but the teacher told me , A person who can fully express his emotions is a normal person."

Kong Yu thought for a while, and continued: "But most of the time, it's impossible, I understand. Acting is a rare opportunity for people to vent their anger. You don't have to worry about losing face, you don't have to worry about etiquette, because doing that The thing is not you, but the character. You have to know how to use the character's emotions to guide your own emotions."

Hu Mu frowned, but neither asked nor refuted.

"He was afraid, so his legs were weak. He was reluctant, so he cried. At that time, even the normal order could not be maintained. Who would have thought that it would be embarrassing to kowtow while crying on the pier?" Kong Yu continued. , "You won't be able to let go because you haven't fully integrated into the role. Remember that the person who cried miserably is not you."

He squeezed Hu Mu's face: "Understood?"

"... I understand a little bit." Hu Mu regained his energy, "As long as all emotions erupt at the right time, then it is reasonable."

"Yes." Kong Yu touched his ear, "For example, I really want to kiss you now..."

He said and kissed quickly.

Hu Mu: "...Oh, don't do this, let me think again."

He really started to think seriously.The darker the sky, the more stars and lights.There were faint lights flickering in Hu Mu's eyes, and the lights from the mountain road fell on his head and shoulders, enveloping his whole body.

Kong Yu leaned over and hugged him: "I have a feeling that I want to explode now, I don't know if you mind."

Hu Mu: "Uh...huh?"

Kong Yu touched his waist a few times, then got into his clothes: "Go home, okay?"

Hu Mu: "Aren't we seriously discussing acting?!"

Kong Yu: "Hey, I suddenly have that emotion. Can you?"

Hu Mu: "..."

Kong Yu knew that he would not refuse, so he rubbed his shoulders pleadingly: "Is it okay? Is it okay..."
