out of plain sight

In any circle, those who come from a major in a major look down on those who have become monks halfway through. No matter how good a person Chen Moting is, he is also helpless when he has a deep prejudice against him before he meets him, and his current acting teacher Zhao Wenjin is just such a stubborn one.

In the years since Chen Moting made his debut, he has never stopped taking various courses in his spare time, but in Zhao Wenjin's eyes, these courses do not seem to exist. The theory is taught from the beginning, and the classics are analyzed from the beginning. theater.

If it wasn't for the teacher recommended by Wen Yan, Chen Moting would have quit the class.

"Do you think you can't learn anything from me?" Zhao Wenjin had just passed her 50th birthday, but her body and skin looked like she was in her early thirties, and she smiled charmingly.Chen Moting was about to deny it, but was interrupted by her raising her index finger, "I want to make a deal with you, if you agree, I will teach you well, and the future tuition fees will be free, if you don't agree, you will be withdrawn from the class."

No matter what kind of result Chen Moting is willing to accept, verbal promises are not binding, Chen Moting doesn't think too much about being a good boy first: "You say."

Zhao Wenjin was obviously satisfied with his straightforwardness, picked up the phone and dialed a number: "Hey, Shudi, are you still around here?...Bring your notebook and your words."

Chen Moting was still searching for the name "Shudi" in his mind, and he was already outside the door. When he opened the door, the other party took a step back as if seeing a monster.

His black-rimmed glasses and baby face awakened Chen Moting's memory. He was the screenwriter Shen Shudi whom he had just met at Wen Yan's house on the first day of the new year.

Although the weather in April was neither warm nor particularly cold, Shen Shudi wrapped his down jacket tightly, pushed his glasses and smiled, "Hello."

"Hello."

Chen Moting sideways let him into the classroom, Shen Shudi called out "Teacher Zhao", then turned around and stretched out his right hand when he remembered something: "By the way, I am..."

He was holding the computer bag in his left hand, and the script was under his right armpit. He raised his arm and the script fell to the ground, and he hurriedly picked it up.Chen Moting helped pick up a copy and handed it to him: "We met at Mr. Wen's house, you are screenwriter Shen."

"Yes, yes, yes." Shen Shudi became more and more embarrassed, "Ms. Zhao is me..."

Although Shen Shudi looks immature, his behavior has always been commensurate with his age, Chen Moting didn't get in touch with him deeply, and he can't see anything wrong, but Zhao Wenjin really couldn't stand it anymore: "Shudi, it's so warm in the room, take off your coat. "

Shen Shudi agreed, and finally regained his composure, smiled embarrassedly: "No, I just spilled coffee on the T-shirt."

"Did you take the wrong medicine today?"

"No, no." Shen Shudi put the computer aside, and handed the script to Chen Moting, "Last time we met at Teacher Wen's house, I thought it was a good match, so I asked the two teachers to connect, I hope you can read my script. "

"Brother Shen thinks highly of me."

Just as Shen Shudi was about to say something, he paused and turned to Zhao Wenjin: "Mr. Zhao, I'm not used to bragging in front of you. Would you like to avoid it?"

Zhao Wenjin frowned as if she was about to have a fit, Shen Shudi put his palms together in a gesture of begging.

"Okay." Zhao Wenjin tidied up her shawl, "Mo Ting, this matter is settled, I will teach you well in the next class."

Shen Shudi watched her go out suspiciously, and asked Chen Moting, "What did Teacher Zhao say?"

"It's nothing." Chen Moting smiled, thinking that Zhao Wenjin is really an interesting person, "Brother Shen, do you want me to join the crew?"

He looked pleasant on the surface, but in his heart he made up his mind to refuse.The role of the director and assistant director is to recruit actors. It is not in accordance with the rules or etiquette for the screenwriter to skip the agent and come directly to the door. When this happens, it is mostly because the crew is short of money and people. It is impossible to pass the test of Sun Jinghan. Twists and turns to get close to the actor himself.

"There is no crew, only the script," Shen Shudi smiled, "If the script can be sold, I hope you will act in it, so I want you to see it before promoting it everywhere."

Chen Moting looked down at the words "In the Silent Place" on the cover, and did not open it: "Why don't Brother Shen tell me this story directly, it will be more contagious."

There are only a few well-known screenwriters who can sell original scripts, and Shen Shudi is not among them. Chen Moting doesn't want to waste time reading a script that may not be able to sell, and listens to Shen Shudi's nonsense at most.

Screenwriters belong to the lower class in the ecology of the entertainment industry, but there are various signs that Shen Shudi's identity is not simple, and there will be no loss of face for him, and it doesn't even matter if he agrees to act. thing.

Sun Jinghan was disturbed by a foreign object and turned over, turned his back and patted his hands and found a person lying flat beside him, Chen Moting turned over and hugged him as if some switch had been touched.

Sun Jinghan raised his hand reflexively, and "slapped" to block the pressing arm, and Chen Moting said "Ouch", and sat up on the bed.

The sky was slightly bright, at five or six o'clock, Sun Jinghan could see a vague black figure sitting in a daze, reaching for the glasses and watch on the bedside table: "When did you come?"

"Three or four o'clock, I'm not sure."

The two just woke up from their sleep, unknowingly gave up the vibrating vocal cords and switched to speaking with breath.Sun Jinghan's limbs became weak from sleep, and he looked at Chen Moting who lifted the quilt to cover him, and didn't feel any resistance: "Do you want to do it?"

"I don't want to do it, I want to see you." Chen Moting read the script until early in the morning, and at this moment he was too sleepy to open his eyes, and said in Sun Jinghan's ear, "Sleepy."

Sun Jinghan's crotch was hot, and Chen Moting's hard object was stuck on his leg, and he was speechless to the uncontrollable morning erection: "I'm crushed to death, get down."

Chen Moting went back to bed and lay down, and before returning to sleep, he noticed that Sun Jinghan got out of bed, and got up after sleepwalking.

He used to stare at the door even when Sun Jinghan went to the bathroom, and Sun Jinghan had to get into the habit of locking the door behind him even when he relieved himself at home. As soon as he stood still in front of the toilet, he heard the dazed Chen Moting twisting the doorknob, and almost choked back.

He opened the door after washing, and there were two fried eggs on the table, and Chen Moting was heating milk in the kitchen.

Chen Moting casually puts on a piece of clothing and looks like a frail scholar, but with his upper body naked like now, he is in a state of clear muscles and full strength.

Let him have sex with his clothes on next time.

As soon as this thought entered his mind, Sun Jinghan held his head and let out a sharp "tsk".

Chen Moting, who was staying in the kitchen, didn't notice his mood swings, so he poured milk into two cups and brought them into the dining room: "I read a script yesterday."

Sun Jinghan was taken aback, his eyes cooled down: "When did you start skipping me to accept scripts?"

Chen Moting was startled by the stern tone, smiled and handed him chopsticks: "Do I dare?"

Sun Jinghan didn't find it funny, and hung his hands in the air: "Whose script?"

"You don't even know him, Shen Shudi." Chen Moting rested his chopsticks on the plate, "Anyway, I haven't heard of him."

"I haven't heard of it, why read his script?"

"Wen Yan and Zhao Wenjin set me up, and the screenwriter blocked me in the classroom, so it was hard to refuse." Chen Moting moved a stool towards him, "It's just an original script that hasn't been sold yet, and there is no producer. Without a director and without a team, I can’t take it even if I want to.”

Sun Jinghan looked at him for two seconds, then lowered his head and rubbed his forehead with his palm: "I'm sorry, I overreacted. Of course you won't skip me to accept the script."

Chen Moting patted the back of his hand: "I'm your man, I can't run away, I can't even be driven away."

Sun Jinghan smiled, and thought that Chen Moting would be the second Qin Hao and the second Chai Ke. I am really unlucky and used to it: "How about the script?"

"It's unexpectedly good. The story has depth and the characters have tension, but I don't think it will pass the review." Chen Moting looked at his fingers using chopsticks while resting his chin. "It involves gay groups and AIDS groups, and the subject matter is too sensitive."

"really."

"Shen Shudi is very familiar with Wen Yan and Zhao Wenjin, so they may have a lot of background." Chen Moting pushed Milk in front of him, "If this script can pass the review and a team can be formed, I will act."

"Don't act, don't be this early bird."

Chen Moting smiled: "I haven't written a word yet."

"As long as I'm still your agent, I won't let you accept such a risky film." Sun Jinghan didn't accept his ambiguous answer, raised his glass and put it down again, "Your contract ends at the end of the year, so you need to make plans early. "

"What plan?" Chen Moting frowned suddenly, "Tianming doesn't want to renew the contract with me?"

"It's not whether Tianming wants to renew the contract with you, but whether you want to renew the contract with Tianming." Sun Jinghan lit a cigarette, "Sending Chai Ke to the drug rehabilitation center is a dangerous move. It's over, I don't want to drag you down." He raised his hand to prevent Chen Moting from interjecting, "You are still young, and you have the capital to venture out and take risks. I am already old, and I will become more and more conservative in order to seek stability, and gradually become an obstacle to your development , and, Kong Dongyue will remember grudges for a long time, and he treats me the same as you..."

"Brother Sun." Chen Moting kissed him lightly, "If you drag me down, I'll drag you forward, it's such a simple thing. I can just be a little actor who barely makes ends meet, but I can't live without you .”

Sun Jinghan squinted his eyes and let out a puff of smoke: "I'm talking about work with you."

"You're talking about sacrificing your own interests to pave the way for me." Chen Moting squatted in front of him, looking up at him, "This is not a job, this is a confession at a corner, didn't you notice?"

Sun Jinghan smiled wryly: "Exaggerated words. What do you like about me?"

"You look handsome."

"Open your eyes and talk nonsense."

"You are nice to me."

"There are too many people who are kind to you. I am your manager, and this is my job."

Chen Moting held up his face: "Look, I just like the way you treat me well and refuse to admit it, you are so gentle that you hide and hide, it seems so embarrassing."

Sun Jinghan blocked his hand: "It's a bad taste."

"I admit it."

He was so shameless that Sun Jinghan was speechless, left his unfinished breakfast and fled in despair.He got in the car and realized that he should deny Chen Moting's so-called "tenderness" just now, but he forgot about it because he was eager to end that embarrassing conversation.

There is really no chance of winning against top students from prestigious schools.

Zhao Wenjin kept his word, the content he said today was nutritious, almost every sentence was a good word, and he made up for Chen Moting's wasted time.Chen Moting said with a smile, Mr. Zhao, your level is too high, listening to your words is better than ten years of acting: "This is not flattery."

"Of course this is not flattery." Zhao Wenjin crossed her legs and leaned on the chair, looked at him with bent eyes and a smile: "Shudi is waiting for you outside, let's go."

Chen Moting did make an appointment with Shen Shudi, but he didn't expect him to tell Zhao Wenjin, which shows that the relationship between the two is really unusual.He nodded slightly to Zhao Wenjin, put on his hat and walked out of the classroom.

Shen Shudi was leaning against the wall with one hand in his pocket and was in a daze, when he heard the door knock, he raised his eyes to look, saw that it was Chen Moting, and raised his hand to say hello: "Hi."

Chen Moting smiled: "Brother Shen."

Shen Shudi put on a dark purple cardigan over his shirt, and carried a bulging computer bag. He couldn't tell if he looked like a student or a nerd. Shudi's side seemed even taller and taller: "I stayed up late last night and finished reading the script, and I feel very good. If I cast a shot, I hope I can be lucky enough to play the leading role."

Hearing his last sentence, Shen Shudi beamed with joy: "You really think so?"

Chen Moting nodded: "Really, it's not a scene."

Shen Shudi turned his back to the sky and let out a long sigh, turned and stood facing Chen Moting: "Thank you, Moting, I will definitely find an excellent team, so that your agency will think that this script is worthy of your acceptance."

Chen Moting was a little confused: "You mean if I don't like the script, you don't plan to shoot it?"

Shen Shudi was extremely excited, and his facial expression almost lost control: "I wrote this script a long time ago. I kept it in my hand and never thought of selling it until one day I watched the movie "Youth Criminal." He shook his head. Shaking his head, he seemed to be feeling something, "The scene of you walking out of the crowd with a knife in your hand fits my imagination of He Xing very well."

Chen Moting smiled: "Brother Shen noticed me so early."

"Yes, it's a pity that you were too young at that time." Shen Shudi took a deep breath and tried to calm down. "At that time, I thought, if I have the opportunity to meet in the future, I must let you read this script. That day at Teacher Wen's house Seeing you, I feel like this is destiny."

Chen Moting wanted to know that you were picking an actor, but those who didn't know thought you were flirting: "He Xing is very important to Brother Shen, whether it's a role or a prototype."

Shen Shu was stunned for the first time, and lowered his eyes to avoid looking at each other: "Yes, he is a very important person to me, so I won't let this drama be shoddy. Since you intend to act in it, I will do the rest."

This time it was Chen Moting's turn to be stunned. He tried to find out who Shen Shudi was yesterday, but he only found his name in a few ordinary movies and TV dramas.For an adapted screenwriter to say boldly that as long as Chen Moting is willing to act, everything will be on him. There is no common sense at all.

Although Chen Moting felt that he was overconfident, he still had to speak in place: "Looking forward to cooperation."

Shen Shudi smiled and stretched out his right hand: "I will do my best."
