[American Entertainment] Born to be passionate

All this was indeed planned to frighten Edmondo with zombies and mutations.

Time went back to two days ago, on the day when Rui Fan contacted the special effects makeup studio, the person in charge reached an agreement with him, and they also called Anderson to plan this matter together, in order to make it more real.In other words, when Edmondo gets angry, multiple people can bear it together.Rui Fan wanted to invite Keanu to join him, but he was filming with Al Pacino and couldn't get away.

The first thing to confirm was the location. Since the surrounding area of ​​the studio was relatively empty and there were patrol cars, the person in charge of the studio contacted the nearest subway station to discuss.The subway managers are happy to help, and if the prank goes viral, the traffic will increase, which means higher advertising costs.With the help of the subway security, they quickly determined the route. In order to ensure that other people would not be affected, they also contacted the head office to request to postpone the next subway.

The subway company easily let go of things that could not be done without money.Anderson came to the studio, and two makeup artists were painting on Rui Fan's arms, which were two extremely realistic wounds. "Come on, Andy, take a look at these two, which one do you think is more real and scarier?" Rui Fan asked, "Or - which one do you think is more convincing to everyone."

"I think as long as you act realistically, he will believe any wound." Anderson shrugged and said, he looked around, and then asked with a little hesitation: "Are you sure you want to do this, Rui Fan? Everyone will be scared True, but he's going to be very angry after that, and I promise he will be."

"I know," Rui Fan said, "that's why I called you." He nudged Anderson with his elbow, "He's been too nervous and busy recently, I think this will be a good opportunity for him to relax. Experience A psychology professor said that after you have lived through your greatest fears, you will have a positive attitude towards life."

Anderson rolled his eyes at him. "Come on, Rui Fan, you don't want everyone to relax, you just want to know if he cares about you." He said.After pausing for a while, he pointed to the wound on Rui Fan's right arm, and then pouted at it. "Use this, this is more similar, and remember to use real blood, otherwise he will find out without blood."

One of the makeup artists shook his head. "We don't have real blood. Most of the plasma is tasteless, and only a small amount is edible, but none of it tastes like real blood."

"Don't worry, we don't need real human blood. Go to a nearby farm and get some animal blood mixed in. As long as it has a fishy smell, that's enough." Rui Fan said confidently, and he smiled. There is no need to mix it up, just use the plasma directly, and Edmondo will be by my side at that time, as long as my smell is strong enough, he won't be able to detect it."

Anderson nodded in agreement, now he only had one question.The manager loosened his collar and asked, "Rui Fan, you know that he got his gun license before Christmas last year, right, if he brought a gun then—"

"I'll make sure of that." Rui Fan interrupted him, he smiled calmly, and then patted Anderson's arm, "No one will get hurt, you can rest assured."

Yes, no one was hurt during the whole prank, and it was arguably very successful.

will be until now.

Edmondo dragged the injured Rui Fan into a corner by the zombies, Rui Fan's painful groans||groans were mixed with the zombie's low growls, and the smell of blood was mixed with the smell of putrefaction.He was completely convinced it was true.

"Get up, Rui Fan, we have to get out of here." Edmondo didn't give up, he tried to carry Rui Fan away on his shoulders, "I don't care if this is the end of America, you have to live, you hear me?"

Rui Fan pretended to be in severe pain, and used the acting skills that a certain director once commented as 'excessive force' to make his forehead be full of sweat. "I don't think I can go, they bit me, hell, that hurts. Leave me alone, Dudu, you go. Go to Anderson, find someone else, go to a safe place." Really, even touched himself.

"Don't be silly, let's go together." Edmondo warned him in a low voice, "I'll take you to the hospital, they will cure you."

Rui Fan showed his fake wound, which had been secretly processed into a gray-purple color, and it looked completely infected by a virus.Edmundo glanced over, and it made him freeze.He didn't want to believe this, even though all the zombie movies told him that he would mutate if he was bitten, he still didn't want to give up.

That's Rui Fan.

"Take my hand and stand up, silly bird, you can't even if I haven't given up." Edmondo said and planned to get up, but Ruifan stopped talking. He closed his eyes tightly, looking fighting the virus.Edmondo patted his face, his lips were trembling nervously, and he mumbled subconsciously: "Don't die, do you hear me, if you are still dead, then what is the meaning of my rebirth..."

Rui Fan who was pretending was dumbfounded by his last words.

[Rebirth back]?what does that mean?

"WTF?" He quickly sat up and looked at Edmondo in surprise, "What are you?"

His movements were so wide that a corner of the fake wound on his arm was lifted, revealing smooth skin under the silicone.Edmondo was stunned, his brain received too many wrong instructions, and he didn't know which one to believe for a while.But soon, his eyes moved from Rui Fan's shocked face to his arm, where there was a fake wound, and his expression changed from panic to anger.

"how dare you--"

Rui Fan's back shivered, he realized that he had revealed himself, and just as he was about to change the topic to the sentence "reborn back" to avoid explanation, the zombie actors walked in front of them with weird steps. "It's a prank!" They happily shouted the action slogan, and then jumped and cheered.

With a bang, the salute|flower|bomb that had been prepared long ago was launched, and colorful sequins fell from the air to bury the two of them. A few pieces of red and yellow sequins fell on Edmondo's white hair, There is also a disobedient piece hanging on the tip of his nose.The scene was quite funny, so the tense atmosphere was instantly broken.

The voice belonging to this world disappeared in Edmondo's ears. He looked around blankly, and there were still sequins slowly falling in the air.It was like being caught in slow motion. They were cheering and he was at a loss. The whole picture had an absurd sense of magical realism.

"Gotyou! (Tricked you!)"

About half a minute later, Edmondo stood up with a smile.

Most of the time he's not the type to spoil the scene, so he joins most of them laughing happily, shaking hands with each of the extras playing zombies, and complimenting them on their acting skills.Even Anderson, who came to him with apprehension, greeted him with a relaxed smile.However, from the beginning to the end, he didn't even look at Rui Fan.

Maybe it was the leak that made him afraid to face him, but like he said, no one was hurt by the prank.

……

Edmondo finished celebrating 10 minutes later. He sneaked to the nearest bathroom to tidy himself up, with a lot of sequins still scattered all over his body.He washed his hands, looked up at himself in the mirror, his mind was full of the last words to Rui Fan.

What the hell, how would he face Rui Fan now, how would he explain it to him.Did you tell him everything?Including rebirth, angels and demons, and everything about his death?He'll think he's scared out of his wits.

However, he was afraid of what would happen, Rui Fan walked into the bathroom, obviously his target was Edmondo.Edmundo could only stare at the sink and pray for a miracle, such as Rui Fan suddenly losing his memory or something.

"Hey, I just came to see you, Dudu, how are you?"

(Fuck! His memory is still there.)

"You just, uh, they all said you did a great job at the end."

(Fuckthis! In the end he wasn't talking with his soul at all.)

"There are cameras in the car, but the video has to be used with your permission."

(Fuckthat! No authorization!)

"About the last sentence you said that you were born again—"

(Fuck! Fuck! FUUUUCK!!!)

"You won, you got me good (yougotmegood), for a split second I thought you were telling the truth. Tell me when you found out the zombies were fake and how you found out. "

(FU - wait?)

Edmundo raised his head from the struggle, and saw Rui Fan's embarrassed expression through the mirror.He squinted his eyes indistinctly, so, Rui Fan, did you find him a perfect excuse? "Then you're here to—"

"I'm here to apologize," Rui Fan said, "I shouldn't have played a prank on you. This time was too much. I know you believed it at the beginning. To be honest, you finally found out the truth instead of pranking me. Relieved. I can't imagine how hard it would be for you to find out at the end, so—"

Edmondo looked down, and a few seconds later he looked up, this time wearing a mask of confidence.

"Yes, you're right, I've discovered it a long time ago." He raised his chin and pretended to be proud, "The bloody smell of so many zombies can't just be that little bit. I have been to a slaughterhouse before, and it is more terrifying than today , so I immediately decided to scare you too."

Rui Fan smiled awkwardly. "So we're even?" he asked cautiously.

"Of course not." Only then did Edmundo realize that he should be angry, and he rejected his request without thinking, and then took a deep breath and said, "This is not over, you were only scared for less than half a minute, and I Almost 10 minutes of worrying that you're going to meet God! So like I said - there's no end to this."

Rui Fan was very surprised, he rushed forward to explain, but Edmondo didn't give him this chance.After comparing two middle fingers to him, Edmondo gave him two more nasal sounds of disdain, and then left the bathroom without looking back.

After he left, Rui Fan stared at the doorknob in thought, with a complicated expression on his face.

……

It was a few days before the contract was negotiated with the studio, and Edmondo deliberately pretended to be angry with Rui Fan during these few days, pretending not to see him, and not talking to him.Of course, some of those feelings were true, if he hadn't leaked his words then, Rui Fan's situation would definitely be much worse than it is now.

After greeting the blond lady who acted as a temporary secretary, Edmund strode into his office, completely ignoring Rui Fan who had been waiting at the door and stood up quickly when he saw him.Rui Fan's eyes followed him all the time, until the door was closed and the white figure could no longer be seen, then he sat down in frustration.

Rui Fan sat back on the chair a little dejectedly, and stretched out his hands to stroke his hair to vent his dissatisfaction, "It seems that I have no chance today." He muttered.

The temporary secretary pushed his glasses, cast a glance at him quietly, and then kindly reminded: "If I were you, I would wait a little longer."

After hearing the secretary's voice, Rui Fan looked over suspiciously, and the secretary shrugged at him.

"Today is the day for the second round of auditions," she said. "Matt Bomer will be in. He is a strong contender for the lead role. Rumor has it that his first audition was at the director's house in the early hours of the morning."

Rui Fan's eyes widened in shock, and the secretary shrugged at him again. Before he could react, there was a burst of unhurried footsteps in the corridor. The Matt Bomer whose name was just mentioned was just so right Appeared at the door of the office.

"Hi, I'm Matt Bomer, and I'm here for the second round of auditions." The tall, handsome young man with black hair said respectfully to the secretary.

The secretary smiled at him. "Wait a minute, I'll notify the director." She said as she picked up the phone on the table, and in the process took the opportunity to look at Rui Fan again, shaking her eyebrows and motioning him to look at the young man who came to audition.Rui Fan glanced at the other party quickly, well, now he understands what she means.

At the same time that Rui Fan swept over Pomo quickly, Pomo was also examining him.Bomer thought to himself, this is River Phoenix, the hottest actor in Hollywood, and the owner of the voice that made Edmondo sober in the morning a few days ago.To be honest, he was a little disappointed, because he didn't see any extraordinary advantages from Phoenix. Phoenix was handsome and very temperamental, but he was far from being obsessed.

Why did Edmondo care about him so much, was it just because they knew each other first?

After the secretary finished speaking with Edmundo, she gestured to Bomer to come in. "The director told you to go in now," she said. "Good luck."

Matt Bomer withdrew his gaze from Rui Fan, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an imperceptible mocking smile.Then he knocked on the table, and finally asked the secretary before going in: "How is the director feeling today, is there anything I should pay attention to?"

"No, as long as you are ready." The secretary said, "As long as you don't do anything out of the ordinary, this role will definitely be yours."

Matt Bomer thanked the secretary, then opened the door and walked into Edmondo's office. Before entering, he deliberately gave River Phoenix a provocative look outside the door.
