Chapter 61
Although Li Ruonan and Lan Muyu had a verbal engagement a few years ago, and now their parents have no objection, they acquiesced in all their actions.
But since that Christmas party, the two of them have tacitly never mentioned this matter to each other, and because of the arrival of the New Year, they have been busy again.
The movie “Dream Traveler” has also officially started preparations. A lot of preliminary work has been done, but several important supporting roles of the crew, even though Fu Qian’s signboard has attracted many actors who come here, they have not been able to settle down due to Director Fang’s strictness.
The last time Director Fang met Lan Muyu, Lan Muyu’s identity and family background had not been made public on the Internet. In Director Fang’s eyes, he was a rookie actor who met Li Ruonan, a Bole, and had great potential in himself.
This time, when Director Fang faced Lan Muyu, his expression changed a little, and he said with emotion as soon as they met, “Little Lan, I thought that having Fu Qian in our group would be enough to give me a headache, but I didn’t expect that. Your backstage is so big, what can I do with you two in the future?”
The screenwriter on the side also echoed: “Yeah, I can’t bear to write the heroine so cruel, I can’t bear to see it.”
Lan Muyu quickly waved his hand: “No no no, Director Fang, you treat me as an ordinary actor, and you have the final say in the crew. Editor Wang, you just write according to your script, I have no opinion.”
Fu Qian came over and complained to Director Fang: “Director Fang, I’m giving you a headache? It’s not the first time we’ve worked together. I saw you didn’t give me water a few times before. It’s a cold day. I told him to dance, but I fell ill after I went back, and my daughter-in-law had red eyes all night.”
Red eyes all night?
As someone who also has a partner, Lan Muyu always felt that Fu Qian’s red eyes were not because Ling Shan felt sorry for him, but… some unspeakable process.
After all, Fu Yingdi’s acting skills are so good, and he sells it badly when he goes home. Didn’t Ling Shan surrender in minutes?
Lan Muyu bit her lower lip, thinking about it, she misses Li Ruonan a little bit, and she got a kiss when she went out tomorrow morning.
Lan Muyu smiled at Director Fang and said, “Director Fang, as a person with a huge fan base like Brother Fu, you can squeeze it hard. I think you should be more polite when facing him.”
“Want to be polite? Give me back the Best Actor trophy.” Fang Dao glanced at Fu Qian confidently.
“That won’t work, I have handed over my trophy to the agent.” Fu Qian persuaded Lan Muyu earnestly, “Xiao Lan, if you win the award in the future, you must keep the trophy yourself, otherwise you will never be able to do it again. Can’t touch it.”
The tone of voice was as wronged as it was wrong, Lan Muyu couldn’t help looking at Ling Shan who was talking with the screenwriter not far away. Ling Shan just happened to look over, seeing the expression “So you are such a manager” in Lan Muyu’s eyes, very puzzled.
Ling Shan looked at Fu Qian again, trying to see something, but Fu Qian looked up at the sky at a forty-five degree angle and refused to look at each other.
With such a joke, the atmosphere between several people finally became active again, and the discomfort at the beginning dissipated.
Director Fang looked at Lan Muyu on the left, and then at Fu Qian on the right, “Well, having said that, do I still have to congratulate you two?”
“What?” Lan Muyu and Fu Qian asked in unison.
“I wish you a hundred years of harmony? Ah no, I wish you a hundred years of harmony?”
Lan Muyu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud in the next second: “Thank you director, bring the red envelope.”
“I didn’t ask you to count as a loss, so you still dare to ask for money?” Director Fang sighed, “If the film crew can’t be popular, they can still rely on the CP speculation. You two, it seems that there is no drama.”
“Where’s the show?” Ling Shan stepped on her high heels and walked to the front, holding one in her hand, “These two are my artists, as long as Director Fang gives an order, I’ll let them fit together. The filmmakers, one is a big investor, I believe they also want the film to be okay?”
Director Fang hesitated for a few seconds, but still refused: “It’s okay, we can rely on acting skills.”
At this time, the staff came over to inform that it was time for the interview, and the artists who were waiting for the audition were already waiting there.
Director Fang asked for advice: “You two are going to pick people with me?”
Lan Muyu and Fu Qian looked at each other, “Okay.”
The casting has been screened for two rounds, and the quality of the remaining actors is not bad. Director Fang sat in the middle, with Fu Qian and Lan Muyu on one side and the screenwriters on the other.
Lan Muyu was the default actor and had not been auditioned by Director Fang. Therefore, when studying the script, Director Fang was strict, but he was also gentle.
But now seeing the strictness of Director Fang’s audition scene, Lan Muyu is a little fortunate that he walked through Fu Qian’s “back door” and only came in after being favored by Director Fang based on his previous works. If she were to fight for a role with other people, she would not be able to estimate the result.
Director Fang’s evaluation of actors is very direct, and he doesn’t give a damn. If there are any shortcomings, he will say them directly. She will give marks.
“You don’t look tough enough.”
“The expression is too stiff.”
“The human setting is not well controlled.”
“The eyes are empty, and there is no temperament at all.”
The auditioners will draw different clips until there are fewer and fewer people in line. Lan Muyu followed Director Fang’s standards in his heart and finally saw a satisfactory actor when he heard Director Fang shake his head again, ” If the lines are not good, it will be greatly reduced at that time.”
“Director Fang, can’t you dub by then?” The person here is a well-known traffic niche, his appearance matches the character’s temperament, and he has done a lot of homework in order to get this role, and now he is blocked from the door, it is inevitable complained.
“When the audience goes to the cinema, is it just to listen to the dubbing?” Director Fang refused mercilessly, “I don’t care how other people’s movies are made, but I only use the original sound in my movies.”
After that, the businessman of the traffic niche also approached Ling Shan for help, but since Fu Qian gave the director’s position to Director Fang, he would respect the director’s selection. Furthermore, Fu Qian has always used the original sound since his debut, and he fully supports Fang Dao in this regard.
This can only be over.
But fortunately, they were also lucky. When they auditioned for another role, they found a suitable candidate for this role. Xu Shi had been auditioning for several rounds, and Director Fang finally found someone who looked right and signed him on the spot.
Three days later, with the actors in their positions, “Dream Traveler” officially started.
Although Director Fang is a female director, she has a passion in her bones. She is very good at shooting those hot-blooded police and gangster films with uniforms and gunshots.
And this time, “Dream Traveler” is about the anti-drug police. What’s different from the past is that this is a film that shows real depression.
The male protagonist Xu Yang and the female protagonist Lu Ying met at the police academy. As the best graduates, they were assigned to special departments upon graduation. However, Xu Yang disappeared in the firelight during an operation, and after Lu Ying was rescued, she was in a trance. Lu Ying continued to track down the drug lords with the expectation that the two would be in the police academy together, but in the dead of night, her mental state was getting worse and worse, and she began to have hallucinations…
Lan Muyu has been familiar with the script for a long time. There are scenes involving Lu Ying in the play, and Xu Yang will appear from time to time, showing a lot of Lu Ying’s life after leaving the police uniform. The plot is real but heart-wrenching. Even the most normal lines reveal a gloom that hits the heart. It was such a lonely and painful soul that finally completed a mission that was difficult for ordinary people to accomplish.
Similar to the audition, Director Fang has a mild temper, but she has extremely high requirements for the film. She is the most strict director Lan Muyu has ever met in her two lifetimes. If there is any dissatisfaction, she will be asked to Reshoot.
In the first few days, in order to win a lot of money, Director Fang chose all the action scenes to shoot. Although the filming takes a lot of energy, the overall atmosphere of the crew is still very strong, and the actors are all like chickens. blood.
In the spare time of filming, while discussing the script with Fu Qian, Lan Muyu couldn’t help sighing: “Brother Fu, as expected of your crew, the atmosphere is good, and there are no miscellaneous things.”
“Why, you’re not comfortable with no one giving you a hug?”
Lan Muyu chewed on the red tea, “Well, isn’t it? You don’t know, since my identity became public, I’ve been like a lamb that fell into a pack of wolves, and everyone wanted to share a piece of the pie. No wonder there were so many people watching at that time. Go to Li Ruonan.”
“It’s okay, this time the crew has strictly emphasized that nothing like this will happen, you can rest assured.” Fu Qian also took off a few red mentions and joked, “Besides, even if people want to post it, they have to watch it. Will that person in your family be jealous and take revenge?”
“You’re right.”
“Xiao Lan, I haven’t asked you before, have you ever filmed a film in which the protagonist contains depression?” Fu Qian was still a little worried about Lan Muyu when he thought of the upcoming scene.
If this kind of performance is not included in the play, it will be difficult to arouse the empathy of the audience. But if they are in the play, the actor is very likely to be trapped in it and unable to come out.
Lan Muyu answered honestly, thinking of the plot in the script, he couldn’t help but ask: “No, but Brother Fu, is Xu Yang really unable to come back?”
As the actor of Xu Yangjiao, most of Fu Qian’s roles in the play exist in Lu Yingjiao’s memories, and he is also a relatively special Xu Yangjiao. Therefore, when he chose Lu Yingjiao, Fu Qian was very cautious, and put the entertainment industry in the entertainment circle. The actors put them one by one into their own films for comparison.
Fu Qian’s silence made Lan Muyu’s mood drop. She seemed to see that girl, who completed her transformation in five years, turned all her love into motivation for her work, The softest emotions incarnate themselves into the hardest shields to disguise themselves.
She is calm and composed when she encounters problems, her analysis is methodical, and she has extremely accurate marksmanship. But in those midnight dreams, her favorite people have long since disappeared, and even if the drug lord is caught and brought to justice, she will not be able to bring back her lover.
No matter how powerful she is, she cannot cross the chasm of life and death.
“Xiao Lan? Xiao Lan? Lan Muyu?”
Fu Qian saw that Lan Muyu’s eyes looking at Hongti were empty, and the end of her eyes started to become wet, and he knew that she was sinking into Lu Ying’s world again.
“Little Lan, are you alright?”
Lan Muyu withdrew from the script and replied, “It’s okay, Brother Fu, I just think that Lu Ying is not easy for her.”
Fu Qian couldn’t help but be a little worried, the visions he had made before were being fulfilled one by one. Even though Lan Muyu rarely got into the play before, but because of the particularity of the subject matter of the film “Dream Traveler”, it is easy for the actors to empathize.
In addition, Lan Muyu is also a dedicated actor, it is very easy to get involved. Most importantly, this is not the first time Lan Muyu has been immersed in this role.
Coinciding with the weekend, Li Ruonan, who was also in Yancheng, was also led by Ling Shan to visit the class quietly. At that time, Lan Muyu and Fu Qian were playing together, so they didn’t come forward to disturb them, they held an umbrella and stood far away. Looking from afar.
Due to the tone of the film itself, when filming the personal life of the heroine Lu Ying, rainy days are often used to enhance the atmosphere.
There was thunder and lightning outside the window, and the sound of rain kept beating on the window. It was clear that it was broad daylight, but the sky was sinking. On the day Xu Yang died, it was also a rainstorm like this. The rain blurred his eyes and restricted his vision.
Lu Ying stood by the window sill, her hand on the window was getting tighter and tighter. There was a huge flame poster hanging in the shopping mall in the distance. The dazzling red and yellow on it made Lu Ying unable to stand up gradually. , she covered her head with her hands and screamed.
Her eyes quickly turned red, and the vase on the side was torn apart when she hit the ground. She fell around the broken glass, and countless memories flooded into her brain. Her chest heaved violently, and she was about to penetrate But get angry.
The tears couldn’t stop falling, she opened her mouth, but couldn’t say a word.
At this time, Fu Qian was also in the mirror, and Xu Yang played by Fu Qian was still the sunny boy. He gently stroked Lu Ying’s face, as if he had whispered between lovers countless times: “Lu Ying, come with me. ,OK?”
Immediately afterwards, Lan Muyu’s eyes became a little more empty, she curled up in the center of the fragment and shivered. Tears blurred her vision, and she could only see a vague figure. She stretched out her hand, “Okay, I’ll accompany you.”
“Card!”
Director Fang’s sound card made Fu Qian heave a sigh of relief. His assistant immediately helped him up, but Lan Muyu was still there, and said to himself, “I’ll accompany you.”
A figure rushed over quickly, and when Lan Muyu’s body was about to hit the thin glass, he cut the glass shard apart and looked at Lan Muyu nervously, “Mu Mu?”
Lan Muyu looked up at a loss, as if she had never known Li Ruonan.
Li Ruonan didn’t care how many people were around, and gently wrapped Lan Muyu into his arms, listening to the sobbing, and comforting in a low voice, “You forgot me in the filming? Okay, I haven’t seen you for a long time. Blame me.”
When Fang Dao saw this, he immediately dispersed all the staff at the scene, leaving the venue for two people.
Li Ruonan pulled Lan Muyu, “Alright, alright, the filming is over, look at Fu Qian, ah no, isn’t your hero over there?”
“He’s not mine, he’s the hero of Sister Ling.” Lan Muyu finally reacted, blinking and choking: “Li Ruonan, why are you here?”
“Yeah.” Li Ruonan breathed a sigh of relief, “I came all the way here, and you ignored me just now. Why, you have a new love?”
Lan Muyu wiped the tears on her face and laughed out loud: “Well, there is no new love, just you.”
“I didn’t know who it was just now, but I was rushing to die for the agent’s husband.”
Lan Muyu bit her lower lip and covered her face, “No, that’s not me.”
“But after seeing so many people present, Miss Lan thinks… what should I do?” Li Ruonan leaned in and asked while biting Lan Muyu’s earlobe.
Lan Muyu, who had recovered, adjusted his breathing, and unabashedly expressed his thoughts: “Didn’t you say you like my costume a few days ago? I’ll wear it for you tonight, okay? ”
Li Ruonan’s fingertips curled up slightly, and said calmly, “I think only the coat looks good.”
“Then, just wear a coat, okay?”
When Ling Shan was talking to Li Ruonan, Li Ruonan also thought that Ling Shan might be making a big fuss. After all, Lan Muyu is usually a cheerful person. But when she came to the scene and saw Lan Muyu distracted by the play, she felt that her heartbeat had missed several beats.
In fact, it is normal that Li Ruonan didn’t think about it before, but Lan Muyu would not fall into any other repressed script, but the heroine in the play also lost her lover.
For Lan Muyu, she has a fatal weakness – she had seen Li Ruonan’s car accident in her previous life.
It was a scene she would never forget, like a thorn pierced deep into her heart. Occasionally, when I dream back in the middle of the night, I will still sweat coldly because of it, but because of Li Ruonan’s body temperature, my restless heart is soothed.
That night, Li Ruonan told Ling Shan about this and asked the crew to revise the script. The director group discussed it all night and decided to use another version of the previous script:
The male protagonist, Xu Yang, cheated to death. He did not die in the fighting accident. Instead, he hid for five years as an undercover agent. After the drug lord was finally caught, Xu Yang appeared in front of Lu Ying, and both of them had faded away. After the greenness of the past, Lu Ying finally found the real Xu Yang under that round of sunset.
Just after Li Ruonan went to the director team to discuss the script, when she returned to the room, Lan Muyu had the script spread out in front of her, with colorful marks left on it. She was lying on the table and was a little drowsy.
Li Ruonan hugged Lan Muyu from behind and woke Lan Muyu, “Still reading the script?”
“Well, I originally wanted to memorize tomorrow’s words, but I didn’t know I was asleep.” Lan Muyu rubbed his eyes, “Actually, you don’t need to come here on purpose, it takes a lot of time to go back and forth?”
“No fee, I’m here to ask for my reward.” Thinking that she could only stay here for two days, she had to help Lan Muyu recognize the reality as soon as possible to avoid accidents during the day. Li Ruonan pulled Lan Muyu up from his position, “Where’s the stuff?”
Lan Muyu slowly raised his hand and pointed to the wardrobe on the other side, “It’s there.”
“When will it be changed?”
“Anything is fine.” Lan Muyu’s face was a little hot, but she forcibly attributed it to just waking up.
The wardrobe door opened, and there was a police uniform lying inside. At the same time, the cabinet door shook and made a crisp sound. Li Ruonan turned his head and saw a pair of handcuffs shining with silver gold.
Li Ruonan raised his eyebrows, “Miss Lan is well prepared…it’s really complete.”
Lan Muyu closed her eyes and didn’t dare to look at Li Ruonan, “I’m fine, too.”
But just as she closed her eyes for a while, the crisp sound on the wall rang again, and in the next second, Lan Muyu’s right wrist touched a piece of ice.
Without giving Lan Muyu any time to dodge, with a “click”, the handcuffs fell off.
Lan Muyu opened her eyes immediately and looked at Li Ruonan in disbelief. Li Ruonan’s action rekindled the nameless anger in her heart.
I thought Li Ruonan was here to visit the class, but I didn’t expect… to play role-playing?
Lan Muyu suddenly said: “You, who came all the way and said you care about me, you are obviously greedy for me.”
Li Ruonan glanced at Lan Muyu, took the police uniform out of the closet, picked off Lan Muyu’s shoulder straps, quickly put the jacket on, and pulled out the belt on the trousers, It was tied to Lan Muyu’s waist.
As soon as the belt was tightened, the arc above it became a bit more obvious. The loose camouflage uniform formed a sharp contrast with the fair skin inside. Under the ambiguous light, the dangerous atmosphere was on the verge of breaking out.
Li Ruonan pushed Lan Muyu onto the closet, lifted Lan Muyu’s chin and kissed it.
Xu is that what happened during the day had stimulated Li Ruonan. Now that she is holding a fresh Lan Muyu, Li Ruonan’s movements are even more urgent. She wants to imprison the person in her arms and prevent Lan Muyu from being hurt a little.
Lan Muyu was breathless from the kiss, and pushed Li Ruonan’s shoulder, “Well, you, take a shower first.”
Li Ruonan stepped back slightly, panting slightly, “Together.”
“what?”
“You said, wash together to save time.”
Li Ruonan handcuffed the other hand to her left hand, and took Lan Muyu to the bathroom. The water was lapping. When she came out again, Li Ruonan was wearing pajamas, while Lan Muyu was only wearing that coat.
The cold feeling of walking made Lan Muyu bit Li Ruonan’s arm a little ashamed and angry.
“Are you a dog?” Li Ruonan threw the man on the bed, and the other end of the handcuffs was handcuffed to the post at the head of the bed. He sighed, “This hotel bed is quite suitable.”
“Hey, hey, you should let me go too, right?” Lan Muyu tugged at her handcuffed right hand.
Li Ruonan didn’t answer. Under the warm light, she opened her gifts layer by layer, kissed them in love, and couldn’t help looking at them over and over again. Finally, when she lost her patience, she gave the packaging bag to her. Pulled off, leaving a red mark.
“Mumu, who am I?”
“Yes, yes, Li… uh”
After breaking the gift, Li Ruonan felt a little guilty, but the crisp sound was even louder, completely shattering the defense line in her heart and breaking the army.
At the moment when Lan Muyu passed out, Li Ruonan sighed softly: “Next time, don’t admit your mistake again.”
…
When the alarm clock rang the next day, Lan Muyu rolled over and rolled into Li Ruonan’s arms. The cuffs on her hands had long been removed, and even after struggling, no red marks were left.
Li Ruonan leaned on his side and looked at the person in his arms. As soon as his fingertips touched the strand of hair, he heard Lan Muyu frown and shout: “Xu Yang! Don’t go. Xu Yang! Come back.”
Lan Muyu suddenly opened his eyes, and when he faced Li Ruonan, he still didn’t react from the dream.
Li Ruonan raised Lan Muyu’s chin and frowned, thinking in his heart how to teach Lan Muyu a lesson. After thinking about it, what he said might be useless, so he could only do it.
She kissed Lan Muyu’s lips deeply, leaving no time for Lan Muyu to prepare, until she plundered all the air in Lan Muyu’s mouth and forced the person to have no strength to struggle. .
As a result, Lan Muyu was completely awake.
In Lan Muyu’s eyes covered with a thin mist, Li Ruonan was clearly reflected, and she complained, “What are you doing in the early morning?”
Li Ruonan squeezed Lan Muyu’s chin’s hand, added strength, and looked straight at Lan Muyu: “Lan Muyu, you have to remember that you are a family member.”
The dissatisfaction and vinegar smell in the words made Lan Muyu instantly react to Li Ruonan’s motives.
Yes, she is a family, why immerse herself in other people’s world?
Lan Muyu sent herself up again and kissed Li Ruonan’s lips lightly, “You are the person I love the most, no one else can compare.”
The author has something to say: the description of the drama in the play is relatively vague and a little depressing, please do not take it seriously without a prototype
