Chapter 1 There is an afterlife
When Peng Xiangming woke up, he found himself in a dormitory.
Four beds, all in upper bunk, with a computer desk and wardrobe underneath.
It looks like a college dormitory.
There were a few older boys with a chair each, seemingly arguing about something. It's intense.
The lights from the roof were harsh.
It was dark outside the window, but the lights seemed to be shining brightly in the distance.
He vaguely felt that something was wrong, and then realized that he should have just finished drinking.
My head hurts, and my brain is like paste, and I can't turn around.
At this time, of course, you should go to bed first, and wait until the wine wakes up.
Thinking of this, he quickly became steady, and then fell asleep again.
When I woke up again, it was already daytime.
Thirsty.
The whole dormitory building is exceptionally quiet.
His eyes widened as he stared fixedly at the snow-white roof.
The mouth is slightly open.
Unusual shortness of breath.
It took a long time before it finally eased up.
His mind gradually cleared up, but his body was still a little weak after drinking, he got up, climbed out of bed with a little difficulty, and observed his body with his hands and feet, fists and kicks, while at the same time looking curiously around in this strange and familiar bedroom.
The expression on his face was complicated and inexplicable.
There was some surprise in the calm.
But in the depths of his eyes, there was a hint of ecstasy that could not be concealed.
Through?
Is there really an afterlife?
There was a faint smell of smelly socks in the house.
The bay window was full of Coke bottles and mineral water bottles.
Beer bottles stacked high.
No one folded the quilts.
On the computer desk under his bed, there is a laptop and a pair of headphones hanging from his head.
On the small bookshelf are "Basic Theory of Film", "The Power of Pictures", "Story: How to Write a Good Script", "Research on the Structure of Hollywood Film Scripts", "Appreciation of Composition of Famous Works", "Illustration of Qingming River", "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Water Margin", "Fengyue Knife", "Performance Theory", "Theoretical Basis of Driver's Test", "A Chivalrous Tomorrow", "Film Asset Management", "Stunner: Issue 386", "Stunner: Issue 392", "The Beauty of Sculpture", "Appreciation of Chinese Famous Paintings", Old Driver: No. 433", "The Elegance of Agelessness: Xue Mingming's Photo Collection (I)......
Peng Xiangming looked over one by one, then lowered his head and noticed that there was a thick stack of books on the computer desk.
I had a sketchbook at hand.
He picked it up and opened it.
It is a pencil sketch one by one.
There are figures, still lifes, and even a few landscape paintings with stick figures.
and a dozen drafts of storyboards.
Very well drawn.
Next to the laptop, there is a mobile phone.
The brand is called "Oriental Star", with a large screen.
Flip it over, bath bomb type quad camera.
Lighting up the screen, he saw that the time was Thursday, March 24, 2016.
9:22 a.m.
Subconsciously putting his phone in his trouser pocket, he pushed the door open and walked out, and soon found a large public bathroom in the middle of the hallway.
He washed his face with cold water a few times, and with the droplets of water on his face, he raised his head and looked at his face seriously in the equally long mirror above the long sink.
A twenty-one-year-old face.
Three points of heroism, three points of recklessness, three points of coolness.
There are still ninety-one points of youthful splendor.
............
What is it like to be able to hold a handful of water with your own hands, splash it on your face, be able to move freely with your own feet, and lift your legs wherever you want?
Ninety-nine percent of the world's people say, "I don't feel anything."
That's because they never lost.
In fact, it was a strange and familiar feeling.
That familiar feeling makes you want to cry.
The kind of tears that burst into tears.
There was no movement in the hallway.
In the mirror, Peng Xiangming's eyes were red, his expression was slightly hideous, the muscles in his neck were tensed, and his arms were pressed the edge of the sink.
The body trembled slightly.
I want to cry.
The kind of crying that I almost can't control.
But eventually, after a few minutes, he sniffed and slowly returned to a blank face.
He had long been accustomed to expressionlessness.
Although it is forced, but getting used to it, it is getting used to it.
Hide all your thoughts under a calm face.
It's just the redness in the eyes, but it won't fade for a long time.
............
I went back to the dorm and got a toothbrush.
Then, he spent more than ten minutes brushing his teeth.
Extremely serious.
Just kidding: it's like you haven't brushed your teeth in years.
On the body and clothes, there is still a residual smell of alcohol.
So after brushing his teeth, he carefully cleaned up his boys from head to toe, one by one: collected all four thermos in the dormitory, mixed them with hot water, washed his hair, and scrubbed his whole body.
He does everything himself.
I did it all by myself.
It's a lot of fun.
............
It took nearly a day for Peng Xiangming's mood to finally calm down.
There is no doubt that he knew, and was convinced, that he had caught up with the so-called crossing that he had only seen in novels.
And it's a parallel time and space.
And he was twenty-one years old.
And he is still called Peng Xiangming.
2013 student of the Directing Department of Yenching Film Academy, junior, second semester.
Director's Department!
In my last life, I occasionally didn't have a dream of being a female star, before I got sick, I actually loved watching movies and TV series, not to mention after I got sick, those real and illusory lights and shadows even carried the weight of my life, but that was already the deepest contact between myself as an ordinary person and the film and television industry.
I never thought I would be an art student one day.
It's still the director's department!
It's a particularly novel experience.
Later that day, he met the classmates and friends of the original owner, at first, he was a little nervous, but, probably because the memory of the original owner was completely preserved, from the first time he saw the first person, Peng Xiangming felt extremely familiar with them, so in the end, he gave his performance a score of 85.
He felt that he had dealt with it very "restored", and he should not have been discovered by anyone that he was already an imposter - the process was quite exciting.
They are all very good at talking and talking, Peng Xiangming listened very carefully to their chats there, talking about this, talking about that, talking about movies, talking about beauties, talking about stars, talking about domestic, talking about foreign, talking about money, talking about everything.
It's all about the world.
This is how he spent the first day he had crossed over.
Exciting, novel, and exciting.
And try to hide your every emotional upswing.
Then he started to go out and see.
On campus, outside campus, everywhere, everywhere.
He was full of curiosity about everything in the world, so he looked around.
Later, he began to work on his mobile phone again.
The Internet technology, mobile technology, and mobile phone technology in this world are also quite awesome, and everything is very similar to the time and space I have experienced.
There is also a WeChat, there is also online shopping, and various APPs.
By the way, mobile music software and video websites are also quite developed, several.
The original owner used to listen to music software before,There are two,One is called "Everyday Music",The other is called "Heart Cloud Music",The interface design is quite interesting。
Of course, there must be no Dong Chou, and there can be no "In the Name of the Father".
The APP of several online video websites is also very good, and there are many films, movies, TV series, online universities, and online dramas in the world and abroad.
made Peng Xiangming feel like he had discovered a treasure with a huge inventory.
Although the original owner has seen a lot of things and has relevant memories of them, they can also be regarded as all brand new - many of them are very well shot.
For example, he likes an animated movie in this time and space that should be released in 2013, which is domestic, and the name is "Xiantao Dasheng", which is particularly interesting.
Its director is called Yao Qingping, and when you check the information, you know that he is still his senior brother, a student of the 1998 class of the directing department of Yenching Film Academy - a senior brother of Zhengpai.
This movie tells a story like this: When the Monkey King stole into the peach orchard, while eating the peach, he threw it away, one of them, he lost too much strength, he actually broke through the fairy world, fell to the world, I don't know how many years have passed, the peach pit of this peach peach actually sprouted, in the gap of reinforced concrete, bravely growing, a certain year, actually produced a peach that was very bad.
This peach was eaten by the male protagonist.
He lived on the rooftop, watching the peach tree grow and bear fruit.
Because the house he rented was an attic on the top floor. Cheap.
His favorite thing to do is to come back from work and come to the rooftop and lie on his cheap bamboo recliner and enjoy a moment of silence. He also eats on the rooftop, with a small dining table.
Later, after eating peaches, he was suddenly able to fly.
There are still all kinds of diseases.
He especially likes to fly around and see the world everywhere.
Later, he liked to cook after work, and then fly to the sky with his little dining table and chaise longue, and eat in the sky - under his feet were the light gray clouds, and the heavy smog in the city, but the blue sky above his head, as blue as a wash, and the bright red sunset in the west, which was beautiful.
Up and down, a line of separation, clear boundaries.
The actor stands on the dividing line between clean and dirty, in the sky, stepping on the haze, sitting on his chaise longue, eating his own porridge and pickled pickles.
That scene made Peng Xiangming feel that it was even more interesting than the male protagonist who became a "great sage" and made a great deal of might.
By the way, the box office of this film is actually not low, the information says more than 700 million, but it is said that the investment is too large, so in the end, the producer should lose money.
This made Peng Xiangming travel through life happily as a whole, and there was a little bit of unhappiness.
............
The clock was fast approaching five days later.
Early morning.
When the eastern sky was just showing the whiteness of the fish's belly, Peng Xiangming had already dressed and went downstairs, ready to start the next morning run.
Over the past five days, he has become more and more familiar with the world—not the familiarity stored in his memory, but the textured familiarity that he has personally walked, heard, seen, and touched.
The biggest change for him is to start running and exercising in the morning.
At the end of March, Yanjing City was still a little cold in the morning.
But the wind has begun to soften.
There was some mist this morning, stirred by the wind, light as smoke, and slightly cool on the face.
There is the aroma of fried fritters coming from nowhere.
The campus is unusually quiet.
He jogged, did some simple stretching, and ran towards the school gate.
Outside the school gate, there is a quiet street.
In a modern metropolis, this street is very narrow, the road surface is quite smooth, and the old locust trees on the side of the street are few decades old, and the branches are all over the sky. In the memory of the original owner, these trees will cover the sky and the sun in the summer, and this is the early spring, and they have just budded.
Most of the buildings on both sides of the street are not new, many of them are red brick walls, and small buildings with three or five floors.
Running slowly down the street, he carefully controlled the rhythm of his breathing.
He is now very familiar with this area: don't look at it as a small street, it is still an old building, but in fact, it is a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.
For example, there is a very inconspicuous small courtyard, there are only two four-story old buildings in it, the gray walls of the old cement are crawling with vines and plants, and the signboard hanging at the door is also ordinary black on a white background, it is called "No. 12251 Research Institute" - research or something, I don't know. But at the door is armed police standing guard.
And it's a 24-hour double post.
It is said to be live ammunition.
For example, if you turn north at the intersection in front of you, there is another street that is not wide, and there is a school on the side of the road, and if you run past it in the morning, you can easily hear a lot of people shouting there.
Peking Opera accent.
That school is called "Yanjing Opera School".
Don't look at the nature of a secondary school, but it is the old nest of Peking Opera, junior high school and technical secondary school for six years, not a little genius or a good seedling, don't want to go in at all. After graduating there, many outstanding students do not need to go through the college entrance examination, and are directly "entrusted with training" by Yanjing Grand Theater, Yanjing Peking Opera Company and other units to enter Yanjing Opera Academy and Huaxia Conservatory of Music.
Commission training, undergraduate.
After getting the diploma, you can go directly to the theater without looking for a job.
At present, more than half of the Peking Opera masters and rookies have gone out from here.
There are also a lot of movies and TV series, of course, that has to rely on the exam. Now in the domestic film and television circle, many people have been admitted to film academies and drama schools from here.
In short, it's not too well-known, but it's awesome.
............
As he passed a bus stop, he slowed down and stared at the large billboard a few more times—it was a movie poster that he couldn't help but look at every time he ran for the last two days.
After he found out that he was a directing student, he became very interested in these things – even more so than the original owner.
He wanted to observe and learn more.
The one standing in the C position on the picture is a boy who looks particularly delicate, very good-looking, but his facial features and temperament are a little soft.
The name of the movie is "The Big Thief".
The advertising words are very interesting: Xu Zhijun and Guan Qian starring, a visual feast of stress relief!
Among them, the three words "Xu Zhijun" are red brush fonts, and the characters are very large, which are obviously deliberately highlighted by the head card and selling point used to canvass for votes.
The bottom is: April 18 will be released nationwide!
The main point is "stress reduction", which is very interesting.
This is the publicity before the release of the movie.
is willing to spend money on such a hard movie, and the general investment and distributor are relatively rich.
Because of this era, now that there is more movie promotion, I am still more willing to throw money on the Internet.
But I have to say that as long as you are willing to accept this kind of hard broad, the effect will really be there.
It's the actor combination of this movie that is really ......
Looking at the makeup style of the characters on the promotional poster, the action scenes of this play should be quite long, and considering the name of the movie, the positioning of this movie can be roughly seen, but Xu Zhijun is really ......
Well, who makes people popular!
Idol!
Fans across the country are shouting and releasing a single disc, and the pre-orders on music every day alone have exceeded 10 million, and the sales have exceeded 100 million in seven hours.
Although he dared to price five yuan for his single disc, it was also 20 million copies in seven hours!
Singles!
The price of five yuan a piece of the Internet!
Both the pricing and the sales volume are too exaggerated!
The reputation of his last movie is a mess in the industry, but it can't stand the box office of more than 400 million, it is said that the total investment is only 60 million, and his own salary alone is 30 million.
Everyone has made a lot of money, so of course we have to continue to do it!
The winner, of course, is right!
At least that's what Party A's dads think.
But he acted...... Seriously, if he plays a flower pot, that is, he does not bear the responsibility of promoting the main plot, and is only responsible for showing off his appearance, it is not really impossible to watch, don't set the acting difficulty for his role, but let him play the leading role, it is really ...... Alas, it's hard to put into words.
is also about Qian, the senior sister of the acting department, level 10, three times higher than herself, she looks quite beautiful, it is said that during school, the level is not bad, but I don't know why, in the past few years after graduation, it seems that she is going back more and more, and the two small roles filmed during college can still see the hard work, in the past two years, it is in the direction of silly white sweetness, and it is gone...... It's a pity, so beautiful.
Considering that they partner with the hero and heroine...... Peng Xiangming couldn't help but shake his head: This film is definitely not his own dish.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you like it or not, and it doesn't delay others to make money at all.
But...... Tsk, I know so much now!
............
After turning this junction and going north, after three intersections there is a large park.
In the distance, I could already hear the sound of "babbling" in my throat.
Peng Xiangming has begun to gasp slightly.
This body is young and young, and I usually like to play basketball or something, but in fact, I am still lazy, and I am also homely, and I run very little, and I have just run for the fourth day, so I am inevitably a little uncomfortable.
When I passed by the opera school, I subconsciously glanced at the campus.
In fact, I can't see anything, and the place where students get up early to hang their throats should be in the playground behind the school building.
There were a few students in front of them, who seemed to be arguing.
The two girls, both wearing school uniforms, should be this opera school.
Another boy, tall and wearing a tweed coat and jeans, stood there, and he could intuitively see that he had a very upright body, and he should have practiced for many years.
Of course, the two girls are not bad, slim.
This is called a station with a station phase.
Oooh...... These two girls are so beautiful!
Glancing at it in a flash, embarrassed to look more, Peng Xiangming slowly ran past them, and heard one of the girls talking like a machine gun, and the words were clear, the voice was like a pearl, and the words were in the ears-
"Xu Minglong, can you make a face and stop harassing us Yuanyuan?"
"You're nineteen, adults, don't be so naïve!"
"I like a fart, I like it, I like it, I am different in age, how can I fall in love?"
"Will there be a generation gap if you are one year old?"
Gee......
............
As he jogged all the way, he gasped harder and harder, and when he finally reached the park at the finish line, once he stopped, he was so tired that he put his hands on his knees and panted.
In the end, it's still too empty.
What kind of vigorous energy, what can be boiled, purely relying on youth.
The so-called young man sleeps on a cool kang, all by firepower.
After resting for a long time, he felt that his breath was a little steady, and he was not ready to go back, but ran to the gym equipment in the park, finished a large set of sit-ups and push-ups, and played with the horizontal bar again.
The arm strength is not very strong, and I can't pull a few.
barely held on to the seventh, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, let go of it, and gasped.
The inside of the coat was actually soaking wet.
As he gasped for breath, he vaguely felt that something was wrong, and he turned his head to look to the side.
The gaze almost collided.
It was actually one of the two girls I met on the road, sitting on a chair and resting.
Oh, it's not like talking like a machine gun, that's how it should be...... What's it called?
That's right, Yuanyuan!
Her gaze avoided in time, but before she could adjust her posture, she pretended to look at a group of old ladies who were exercising in the morning not far away in a slightly twisted posture.
He looked at her seriously, withdrew his gaze, and continued to gasp.
Five seconds later, she suddenly turned her head to look over again—and she almost looked away in time.
Peng Xiangming thought it was really interesting.
Noticing that the machine gun classmate was not there, he straightened up and walked over.
"Hi there!"
The girl raised her head, glanced at Peng Xiangming, did not respond, and lowered her head again, not looking at him.
Girlish twinkle in her eyes.
The face began to turn red.
"Where's your classmate?"
The girl raised her head again, her eyes narrowed, and she reached out and pointed behind Peng Xiangming.
Peng Xiangming turned around, "Oh......"
The girl was practicing - the big fork made Peng Xiangming subconsciously feel that his hamstring also hurt.
He retracted his gaze, "Why don't you practice?"
The girl laughed, gentle, shy and playful, and said, "Lazy." ”
Peng Xiangming smiled, "You don't practice in school, do you run out to practice every day?"
The girl looked up at him and nodded.
"You just kept looking at me. You...... Know me?"
The girl suddenly laughed and shook her head, but nodded quickly.
Peng Xiangming looked at her.
After a while, she smiled and said, "I can meet you for the last few days, we will follow you and listen to your panting ......" She stopped talking and pursed her lips and smiled.
I was actually ridiculed.
Gotta fight back.
After thinking about it, he put on a posture of an old man who came over, and said earnestly: "It's a good thing to be chased by boys, don't be affected by your classmates, the key is to see if you like it or not." ”
"Did you hear that?"
The girl immediately looked up, without a serious smile, "Actually, it's not! I'm stupid, Xiaoice help me slap him! Actually, that Xu Minglong ...... Not a good person!"
Peng Xiangming smiled and was about to speak, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the machine gun classmate coming quickly.
"Hey, who are you, what are you doing!"
Peng Xiangming raised his hands and said with a smile: "If the conversation fails, I'll get out immediately!"
The girl who should be named Yuanyuan couldn't help but smile shyly when she heard this, but said: "No, Xiaoice, let's chat! People are not bad people, don't be like this!"
"What's the good guy, the bad guy!"
She glanced at Peng Xiangming seriously, but she didn't see it, she looked very straightforward, and she was a little arrogant without scruples, and said to Yuanyuan, "Don't look at him handsome, the more handsome he is, the easier it is to be a scumbag!"
And suddenly he praised me......
"Hey, you, since the conversation failed, let's leave quickly! Our school has a rule that you are not allowed to fall in love!"
Peng Xiangming thought about it and nodded seriously.
"Okay! Then goodbye Yuanyuan, see you tomorrow!"
Without waiting for the other to stare at her, he smiled and said to her, "Also, Xiaoice you are so beautiful...... Bye-bye!"
Peng Xiangming turned around and ran back.
There seemed to be a cacophony behind him.
But he felt that his body and mind were very happy at the moment.
"Xiantao Great Sage" will lose it!
