24 Lies

Shooting ends.

Li Zhiyuan folded his hands, stared at Ming Zheng who was frowning in front of him, and sighed.

They've been sitting like this for a while.

Seeing his hesitant expression, Li Zhiyuan felt really panicked, and finally took the initiative to hand over the words: "If you have something to say, just say it."

Ming Zheng said: "I hope you can tell me more about Chen Zhou."

Li Zhiyuan answered him patiently: "What do you want to know?"

"He... what color, what constellation, what kind of family does he like, and the details that make him up." Ming Zheng paused, "I can't imagine without these in the script. I want to know more about him."

"Why do you need to know this?"

"I found that I didn't quite understand the role."

don't know?It is best not to understand.

"Do you think a person is made up of what color he likes, what constellation, and those?"

Ming Zheng was silent, with a dazed expression.

"Those things are appearances, you don't need to know." Li Zhiyuan smiled, "I don't like to design these things either, you can act according to your own ideas."

Ming Zheng's expression became even more puzzled, and he opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but couldn't say it.

Li Zhiyuan: "Don't beat around the bush, what exactly do you want to ask me, just tell me."

Mingzheng hesitated for a while before asking: "Do you think my performance today is right?"

Li Zhiyuan sized him up for a while before slowly saying: "My feeling is not important, your feeling is important."

Mingzheng hesitated for a while: "But... when I acted today, I didn't feel that I loved each other very much, and you didn't call out the card. After several times of filming, you didn't call out the card, and you didn't tell me that I acted well. has a problem."

Li Zhiyuan said calmly: "You are indeed fine, why should I call card?"

Ming Zheng looked at him puzzled: "Didn't you want me to act like I've been in love for a lifetime? I didn't act the way you wanted, and I know it in my heart."

Li Zhiyuan smiled, and asked: "When Gao Xiaoyu looked at you, did you have that feeling of being in love for a lifetime?"

"……I have no idea."

"Then what do you think of Zheng Guanyu's performance? Is that how you feel?"

Ming Zheng was silent.

His expression said it all, Li Zhiyuan smiled with satisfaction.

"Zheng Guanyu actually doesn't need me to teach plays. He may have more experience than me and knows what I want. I just need to remind him not to act too much. Telling him plays will limit his performance." Li Zhiyuan said, "I've been in love all my life. I'm telling you. I want to see how far you can go. I'll tell you about the drama, and I'll talk about it at a higher level."

Ming Zheng was stunned for a moment, unable to answer.

"What you are acting today is not a lifetime, but a doubt about a lifetime. What Zheng Guanyu is acting is a lifetime." Li Zhiyuan said, "But I didn't call the card, but I recognized your suspicion, because you always asked me why Chen Zhou fell in love with me. Gao Xiaoyu, I know in my heart that you doubt the relationship between the protagonists. This kind of doubt is very good, I think the swinging state of your body is very good, and I will even try to create a sense of contradiction in you."

Ming Zheng was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't answer this question.

Seeing his reaction, Li Zhiyuan was still a little puzzled: "The director has to learn how to deal with actors with different personalities, especially when speaking to newcomers. Didn't your father teach you this?"

Mingzheng shook his head: "I don't want to be a director, my dad never taught me this."

"Then let me teach you this class for Yan Mao." Li Zhiyuan said, "Talking is also divided into people. Your personality is different from Zheng Guanyu, and I must use different methods to deal with you. If Zheng Guanyu has an opinion, he will directly argue with me. He is a very honest person. But if you have an opinion, you will not speak it out, you will only think about it in your heart, you will hesitate, tentatively, use yourself You are quite similar to your father in this way, full of ideas, but you don't show it on your face."

Ming Zheng understood.

"Finally, I can't give you the answers to the questions you asked me at the beginning, because that's the homework that actors have to do. I don't really understand it. You need to figure it out by yourself." Li Zhiyuan said, "But... If you really want to learn, go ask Zheng Guanyu, he knows how to get close to a character, he is much more professional than me in this regard."

...Mingzheng's expression began to become very unnatural.

Ask Zheng Guanyu?

Li Zhiyuan patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "Let's stop talking here, don't think about it, go to eat."

It was a very difficult conversation to digest.

When Ming Zheng walked back to the set to pack his things, he was not in a good mood, and his heart was full of doubts about the role of Chen Zhou.

In fact, he was not very happy in his heart, and felt a sense of discomfort being played in the hands of others.But he has no position to be unhappy, let alone doubt the director at this stage.

This is his first film as a starring role, and he is completely crossing the river by feeling the stones.Sometimes the relationship between the director and the actor is so unequal, at present he can only choose to trust Li Zhiyuan.

Still in a daze, he took two steps aimlessly.There was a lot of excitement nearby, and the crew were chatting and laughing, as if they were meeting somewhere for dinner.

Ming Zheng planned to leave.Without hesitation, Zheng Guanyu approached him with a smile, and asked him briskly: "Ming Xiaozheng, we are going to eat the special dishes here, shall we go together?"

Mingzheng was unhappy, and the last thing he wanted to see now was Zheng Guanyu, so he ignored him and packed his bag on his own.

Zheng Guanyu waited for him to speak for a while, seeing that he didn't answer, observed his words for a while, and asked tentatively, "What's the matter, are you in a bad mood?"

Mingzheng shook his head: "No. You guys go, I'm a little tired, go back and rest."

"Let's go together." Zheng Guanyu said enthusiastically, "It's not interesting for you to go back and eat alone."

"I don't want to go."

Zheng Guanyu began to seduce him: "We want to eat the Dai cuisine that is said to be delicious, don't you really want to go?"

Ming Zheng said impatiently: "Zheng Guanyu, I'm a local here, do you think I'd like to eat?"

"Can't the locals eat it?" Zheng Guanyu didn't seem to care much about whether he treated him well or not, and his tone was still very gentle, "Let's go together."

"Don't go."

Zheng Guanyu was silent for a while, then asked him: "Then what do you eat?"

"Eat whatever you want."

Zheng Guanyu looked at him, pondered for a while, then turned away without saying a word.

Ming Zheng heaved a sigh of relief, and said to himself that he had finally left.But when he saw Zheng Guanyu getting into the RV from the corner of his eye, he felt an indescribable sense of loss.

For some reason, Ming Zheng didn't choose to leave the set. He sat for a while, stood up, and walked back to Chen Zhou's house.

What kind of person is Chen Zhou?he thought.

His zodiac sign and his favorite color are not written in the script, the director said those are not important.

So what's important?

In that movie, he was just a light boat, riding a feather, ups and downs in the sea, not long after floating, the feather rolled into the sea and disappeared.

Will Chen Zhou feel sad when the feather disappears?

Maybe, Mingzheng is not sure.Li Zhiyuan didn't tell him how to interpret Chen Zhou's psychology, he had to think about all his emotions.

Standing at Chen Zhou's house, Mingzheng slowly closed his eyes and began to imagine.

That day, why did Chen Zhou hang a bag of oranges outside Gao Xiaoyu's door?It was he who started it.Chen Zhou actually saw Gao Xiaoyu at the barber shop that day, he walked back and hung the bag of oranges on the doorknob of Gao Xiaoyu's house.

What was Chen Zhou thinking during the month following Gao Xiaoyu?

What mood does he get when he peers into another man's life?

All he knew was that Gao Xiaoyu had many old white shirts, which seemed to be made of cotton and linen, and she always wore them when she went to school.

Gao Xiaoyu wears an old-fashioned electronic watch and black-rimmed glasses.

Gao Xiaoyu was always absent-minded when walking, and he was thin and thin, making people feel that he would faint under the scorching sun of Wanding in a second.

What kind of emotion does Chen Zhou have towards him?

like?pity?curious?It doesn't seem like it, it seems that many emotions are mixed together, it is a very complicated and contradictory feeling.

Mingzheng walked around the living room a few times absent-mindedly, and sat down at the table.

This table is facing the door, and he needs to make up the shot of Chen Zhou sitting alone in front of this table smoking a cigarette in the follow-up. Chen Zhou will sit in front of this table, silently staring at the door, waiting for another person to knock ring the door of his house.

Getting a little absorbed in thinking, Ming Zheng actually wanted to light a cigarette and try to get into Chen Zhou's state.

He has always hated the smell of cigarettes, and he doesn't quite understand why others are obsessed with nicotine, but he wants to know why Chen Zhou likes to smoke.

But there were only cigarettes in his bag and no fire, so Mingzheng could only take out one to smell and hold it in his hand to play with.

He was still in a daze when he suddenly felt that he heard three knocks on the door.

Mingzheng was in a daze for a moment, thinking it was probably an illusion, after all, it seemed that no one would knock on the door at this point, and the crew should have all left.

He thought that he was too absorbed in his thoughts and misheard.

But after sitting for a while, the door rang again.

Mingzheng heard clearly this time, there was indeed someone knocking on the door.

He sat in a daze for a while, at first he forgot to stand up to open the door, like Chen Zhou who was waiting in the room today, and waited.

That's how Gao Xiaoyu knocked on the door, gently, slowly, and very carefully.

Ming Zheng stood up, walked over and opened the door.

The person outside the door was not Gao Xiaoyu, but Zheng Guanyu.He smiled when he saw himself, and said, "I guess you're here."

Speechless, as if knowing more about myself.

Mingzheng frowned and asked him: "...Why haven't you left yet?"

"I'll send you something and leave. You won't be able to buy anything to eat when you go back. I thought I'd give you what I prepared." Zheng Guanyu raised the thermos in his hand, "I made it for myself and Ah Mai. The fat-reducing meal should taste okay, do you want it?"

Ming Zheng didn't answer.

He hesitated.Because I feel that it seems a bit ambiguous if I answer it, and I don’t know what to do if I don’t answer it.

Zheng Guanyu saw his entanglement, and quickly gave a reason with a smile: "Anyway, I'm going to have a big meal, so you can eat it. Didn't you still praise me for the delicious food? Today will be cheaper for you."

Cheap me?

Originally wanted to answer, but when he said this, Ming Zheng didn't know where he was awkward, and shook his head and refused: "Mr. Zheng, no need, thank you."

Zheng Guanyu was stunned for a moment, and looked at him amusedly: "Why do you call me that?"

Mingzheng glanced at him, then turned his head away: "That's what I should call you."

Zheng Guanyu felt that Mingzheng's tone seemed to be angry with him.

But why, is it possible that giving a meal is disgusting?

Zheng Guanyu felt that he was not in the right state. After thinking about it, he felt that he couldn't just leave, and asked him tentatively: "We haven't eaten together for a long time, can we eat together today? I won't go to the dinner party."

Ming Zheng didn't speak, but raised his eyes and gave him a lukewarm look.

Zheng Guanyu was still smiling, and asked him: "Is it okay to say something, if you want to be alone, I will leave, and I won't bother you."

Ming Zheng couldn't tell what mood he was in.

But the body reacted before the brain, he stepped back two steps, leaving room for Zheng Guanyu to come in, and replied in a low voice: "Okay."
