On the second day, Mu Lai overslept for the first time.When she woke up, Tom was gone.She got up, put a Tom's shirt on her nightgown and went out of the bedroom: "Tom, why didn't you wake me up?"

But what she didn't expect was that there was another person in the living room, a girl.She looked at her in the same astonishment. Tom is standing next to the girl.

"Good morning!" Mu Laiwei greeted, "I'll change my clothes." After saying that, she stepped into the bedroom.

"Who is she?" Emma asked.

"As you can see, girlfriend." Tom sipped his coffee.

"Asian?"

"Yes, Chinese. She is dancing at the Emperor now."

"Dancer, this is a cool job." "Do you live together?"

"To be precise, no, she lives opposite."

"I guess I should talk to my mom." "Are you bringing her home this Christmas?"

"I'll have to ask her."

In the bedroom, Mu Laiwei took out the clothes that had been placed with Tom these days from the closet.She changed into a loose sweater and skinny jeans, and she tied up her loose hair a few times casually.

"Hello sister. Just call me Emma." Seeing that Mu Lai hadn't come out of the room, Emma kindly stepped forward and gave her a hug.

"Hello, Emma, ​​nice to meet you. Laiweimu, just call me Wei."

"Have you had breakfast?" Mu Laiwei asked.

"No." Tom took another sip of his coffee.

"Tom, I want to say that drinking coffee on an empty stomach hurts the stomach." As a Chinese, Mu Laiwei disapproves of getting up and drinking coffee on an empty stomach.

Put down the coffee cup: "Okay."

A is funny when he sees Tom thanking him awkwardly: "Before I came, I had something to eat."

"Then you can eat some more."

"Ok."

When Mu Lai was busy in the kitchen, Emma looked at the figure and said, "She is very beautiful. You know, I can't remember the faces of oriental people I've met all at once. But she took my All of a sudden, the attention is on her facial features."

Approving smile.He still vividly remembers the scene when they first met.He had to admit, he was amazed.

A satisfactorily finished Mulai's uncooked breakfast, and she gave a thumbs up: "It's great. Thank you for your breakfast."

"My honor!" Mu Laiwei smiled, and she also finished her breakfast, "I have to go to work."

"Let me work with you. I have a performance in the West End recently, and I have to rehearse every day." Like her brother, she is a drama actor who is active on the stage. Emma took out a tissue and said.

"Okay. But I have to go back to the apartment first."

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

Finally, Tom sent the two girls to the door.

"Have you been performing recently?" Mu Laiwei asked on the way to the subway station.

"Yeah! Until Christmas Eve." Emma, ​​"You can watch it with Tom. Do you have a show?"

"Yes!" At this time, she still has one or two in hand, and she feels that the Emperor treats her well.

"Then I'll talk about it after I have been busy for a while."

Mu Lai didn't listen, and said silently in his heart: Then there might be no chance.

As the end of the year is approaching, as a rule, the art director needs to have a talk with actors who have a solo dance contract or above, and talk about their feelings this year and the future.At this time, both parties will reveal to each other whether to renew or terminate the contract.In this way, both parties have a plan and will not be caught off guard.

Today it's Mu Laiwei's turn.She tapped on the opened door.

"Come in." Davy's voice.

Mu Lai walked into Davy's office, closed the door, and walked towards him.For more than half a year, for Davy, she avoided it if she could.

Davy looked at the girl who was walking towards him. She was wearing a down jacket over the gray practice clothes. She still looked fresh and elegant when he first met her, standing upright, with an indelible pride in her bones.He treated her unfairly, it can be said that he let her waste a year, and she did not give in.

"You know, your performance in the past year was not satisfactory." Davy looked at the girl sitting at his desk and said.

The girl smiled flatly and did not speak.

"There are many people who are optimistic about you, and they insisted on renewing the contract with you." The group of teachers of the Royal Academy of Dance represented by the president of the Royal Academy of Dance, Y, insisted on the talents of girls.Over the past six months, he has received a lot of resentment from them, blaming him for not sparing his talents.Cherish talent, does he spare talent?In the past six months or so, whenever a girl softened a little, he would definitely not be stingy.

"And there are people who think you've wasted the contract. They don't see your value in it."

The girl looked at the majestic man across the way, and felt hehe.

"I admit that in the past year, I have been unfair to you. You have not had too many opportunities to show off, but I am still very optimistic about you. In addition, Ms. Tamara, I also called to care about you. I can't let you The people she likes are lost due to lack of effort. I think she will be disappointed when she comes back. So at my insistence, the group intends to continue this contract with you. And you will have more stage opportunities next year."

Contract continues?Surprise.Is this trying to make people feel grateful?If anyone else, they may happily agree.But she said: "For me, this paper contract is the rope that binds me. The world is so big, it is a wise choice to go out and have a look. I advise the director: Don't have such a small vision. London is so big, you can There is only one short year of the Emperor, and I still have the whole world. So it’s not about giving me a chance, it’s because I don’t want to work with you anymore. Also, don’t use it in the future? Treat people with half your body.” After finishing speaking, she felt She has no need to stay any longer, so stand up.diameter except for the office.Davy who was left behind had a calm face, not at all angry.These words, over the years, he has heard many girls say to him.Those who slept with him still failed to stay in the Emperor.Some people cursed him to die, some said they would report him, but they still sat here firmly.

Before Mu Lai reached the stairs, he was already waiting there.

"How's it going?"

"He said to stay with me, and I said to him: goodbye."

Not surprisingly, he smiled and opened his arms.Mu Lai was gone, and she also opened her arms to hug her friend, she said: "Goodbye, my friend."

Then, she walked up the steps step by step.

To be young is to leave as you please, to say wantonly without mercy.

When Mu Lai didn't see Tom again, she said, "I'm unemployed."

Go up and hug her.

It was very late at night, and the room was dim. They sat on the window sill covered with blankets, and Mu Laiwei nestled in Tom's arms. On the small table, the wine glasses were full of wine.They quietly looked at the scenery outside the window.

No matter how long the night is, the dawn still comes. At that time, the first light appears, and everything is a new beginning.

After Mr. Funès learned that she was willing to try, when he left London, he asked Mu Laiwei out and had a detailed talk with her.As for the start time of the movie, after he returns to the United States and arranges it properly, he will inform her.All the preparatory work for this film was done more than a year ago, but it was hard to find a suitable actor. If Mr. Funès hadn't insisted willfully, this film might not have been able to be made.However, when he went back this time, he could predict that the investors would be furious again.He found him a girl doll.

In their apartment, Tom was sitting on the sofa, and Mu Laiwei was sitting on the blanket, and they were both carefully studying the script.

"I need a haircut." Mu Laiwei said a little frustrated.

"Do you not like it?"

"I've never cut my hair short. I asked if it would be ugly, so ugly that Mr. Funès thought he had found the wrong person. He found that after I cut my hair short, I was not a beautiful little boy."

Seriously looking at Mu Laiwei's facial features, he said seriously: "No, you are very beautiful. When I watched your youthful appearance in "Like a Dream, Like a Sword", I didn't think it was a girl. I just thought this boy was pretty. beautiful."

"When you say that, I don't know whether I should be happy or not. I am obviously a girl, but I was dragged to play a boy. Director Wei Wei also said: In his eyes, I have no gender distinction. Obviously everyone will see me when they see me." Say, you are the most beautiful little girl I have ever seen." Mu Laiwei was not shy when she boasted, she said with her chin resting on her hands.

After Mu Laiwei explained why Mr. Funès came to him, he was also surprised by the different aesthetics of these two directors.He knew it wasn't self-confidence.It takes courage and strength to play a role in a serious art film.He asked, "Have you seen "i'there"?"

Mulai didn't nod. "i'there" is a biopic of legendary American singer bobdylan.Director Todd Heinst deliberately recruited six people to play bobdylan, in order to show different sides of this legendary character.

"Six of them, most of them look like Dylan, but they are Oscar queens."

"She's the queen."

"Yes, she is the queen. But what you showed in the movie "Dream Like Sword" is not inferior to other people in the same movie. What's more, the 12-year-old is definitely not as good as you."

Hearing this, Mu Lai was not happy.She thought: Isn't it?At that time, I was not acting.But how can you compare with the present when you were a child?

"She showed extreme confidence in the film, telling everyone that she was bobdylan. And by the end of the film, no one doubted. And you need this confidence. I believe you have it. Don't you forget that you are in On the stage, do you feel that way when you are dancing? No one’s eyes want to leave you. At that time, you are moving because of your confidence. Also, the director believes in you. He dragged this movie, didn’t he just want to find him The best actor in my heart? But you tell him, you are not. I think it is irresponsible to have no self-confidence. So, trust the director, trust yourself. You are the boy that he has buried in his heart for more than ten years .”

"My dad said: The smartest and dumbest way for an actor is to trust the director."

"Yes, your father is right." Tom quite agreed.

"That's one more question, sir."

"you say?"

"I have a passion scene." It's in the script, but I don't know how the director will arrange it in the end.Although it is a girl, she will definitely play at that time.

Thinking about it, he asked back: "I have it?"

Without even thinking about it, Mu Laiwei replied, "Let's act."

Wei's answer was as he expected, Tom said: "I think the same as you, let's act."

The two looked at each other and smiled.
