"Rooney?"

A call came from her ear, interrupting her train of thought abruptly, and Rooney snapped back to her senses, realizing that in the brief gap in time that Alfonso had turned to leave, she had inadvertently fallen into her own thoughts, wandering away.

Just now, her eyes fell on Lan Li in a daze, looking at this man quietly, her mind was blank, there were no thoughts or emotions, she just watched quietly, and she was careless.

After realizing this, inexplicably, Rooney became a little flustered, hurriedly lowered her eyelids, looked towards the source of the sound in disguise, and made a careful appearance, but involuntarily, the corner of her eyes secretly glanced at Lan Li again, and then found that Lan Li was concentrating on communicating with Nathan, not noticing the surrounding movement at all.

The light in the light box fell softly and lightly on his cheeks, outlining the corners of his eyes.

"Rooney!"

The call sounded again, and Rooney's heartbeat suddenly lost its rhythm, and she quickly withdrew her gaze, pretending to be calm to look at the dramatist Edward Brett who was standing in front of her, "What's wrong?"

Edward gave a knowing smile, which made Rooney even more embarrassed. However, Rooney straightened her back, quickly calmed down, and cut to the topic again, repeatingly, "What's wrong?"

Edward didn't continue to be aggressive, coughed lightly twice, and uncovered the little accident just now, "I'm here to ask, are you going to come down for this next scene......?"

Before she could finish speaking, Rooney interrupted early, "Stay here." He firmly stated his position and repeated again, "I'll stay here and play." Don't worry about my situation, the hard part is over, and the next little bit of work is just a small thing. I'm fine here. ”

For the next filming work, Rooney does not need to appear on camera, only needs to narrate and dialogue. So, if Rooney wants, she can take off her bulky spacesuit, leave the basket with an unstable center of gravity, get rid of the hot and dull light box, and cooperate with the follow-up work in a more comfortable environment.

However, Rooney refused.

Edward reflexively wanted to persuade again, but then he noticed the perseverance between Rooney's eyebrows, and the cold side line of his face outlined a sassy and heroic tenacity, and the words that came to his lips changed to another appearance, "Okay, I see." ”

Rooney nodded in affirmation, then looked up and looked at Lan Li again. This time, she didn't dodge, but cast her gaze generously.

Edward, who was standing next to him, lingered for a moment, hesitated awkwardly for a moment between saying goodbye and leaving silently, and finally chose the latter, touched his nose, turned around and left quickly, and made a gesture to the crew, signaling "keep it as it is", and then, the staff all made a low commotion, some were happy and some were worried, and the sound of laughter and laughter was faintly surging.

In the blink of an eye, the crew has officially started filming for a month. For the existence of the light box, everyone's emotions can be said to be love-hate.

Because it successfully realized the problem of freely changing light anytime and anywhere, which is a revolutionary/life/sexual breakthrough, and because it is cramped, stuffy and clumsy, just standing outside the light box to work, it is easy to get dizzy after a long time, let alone being in it.

This is especially true for actors.

To avoid the danger of dehydration, each day of the two actors' shoots is a test of stamina, endurance and energy, and it's not just a marathon – it's like a marathon in the heat – but also an Olympiad math problem to try to figure out the answer precisely. The difficulty and severity of the test are really unimaginable.

Now, Rooney's job has finally come to an end, and she can officially get rid of the lightbox.

In the eyes of many staff members, it is assumed that Rooney will definitely choose to leave and breathe a sigh of relief, because anyone wants to escape from this hell, but some people disagree, they think that Rooney will still stay, stay in the same state, and complete the rest of the show. Neither side could convince the other, so they ...... The gamble was born.

Rooney chose to stay. It can be said that it is unexpected, but it can also be said to be expected.

"I told you, they're both crazy......" The staff member who won the game quietly exchanged glances, but only halfway through the words, then coughed lightly and said seriously, "Dedicated actors." They are very, very professional actors, and all considerations are based on work. ”

That being said, when everyone's eyes turned to the lightbox again, the look in their eyes couldn't help but start to ponder. Perhaps, madness is indeed a more appropriate adjective.

……

In the midst of the noise, Rooney stared intently at Lan Li, carefully observing his every move before preparing to perform, those eyes, that face, that kind of demeanor are completely different, it seems that it is still the same Lan Li, but it is no longer the Lan Li, this feeling is really amazing.

Rooney couldn't help but think of the first day she joined the crew, Lan Li's audacity and earth-shattering shock, completely subverted people's ideas about actors, and even Rooney herself was frightened.

The moment Lan Li appeared at the door of the studio, Rooney's heart literally stopped beating. Even now, with her eyes closed, she could still see a dazzling glow on her embarrassed, sweaty face, and then ...... The smile was so big on the ground, so thrilling.

But after the fright, admiration and admiration involuntarily began to surge, and then curious inquiry and interest gradually intensified. Not only as a spectator, but also as an actor, Rooney couldn't help but start looking for similar shadows in herself, those talents, those dedication, those efforts, and those concentrations.

Now, watching Lan Li get into the performance is really interesting and fascinating.

Lan Li and Nathan's conversation was over, and from just now, he could feel a burning gaze falling on his cheek, and now he subconsciously followed his gaze, and then he saw Rooney, who was focused and engaged, with a pensive expression as if he was studying the heirloom collection in the Louvre.

Eyes collided.

Rooney didn't dodge, but showed a big smile, generously admitting that she had just looked at her, and her eyes still stayed on Lan Li's eyes, such a frank gesture made Lan Li slightly stunned, and then followed with a smile.

"So, you're not going to leave?" Lan Li asked with a chuckle, "Everyone is trying to escape this lightbox, including me. ”

"But if it's for the show, you're willing to stay here forever. Rooney said firmly, Lan Li thought about it seriously, and then nodded in affirmation, and Rooney smiled, "Then, I still have acting work next, so naturally there is no reason to leave." ”

After a pause, Rooney raised her eyebrows playfully, "You should know how difficult this scene is to perform, right? I need this environment, and I also need Ryan's presence." All the content they had discussed before, and now the focus of the turn is on the next scene, "What is your opinion on the performance of this scene?"

Lan Li didn't answer immediately, but looked at Rooney carefully to make sure that she was not joking, but communicating as an actor to an actor, he thought about it and replied out loud, "Breathe, take a deep breath." ”

In fact, Alex's change of thought had already been expressed in the look in his eyes just now, and now it was only transmitted further through his voice for the second time. So, all Rooney needed was breathing. The double meaning of the breath.

The first meaning is to let Rooney relax and stay in shape, and the second meaning is to let Alex breathe, and as he gradually runs out of oxygen, the desperate situation of death becomes clearer.

That was the end of the conversation, as the filming began in earnest. Both actors retracted their thoughts and threw themselves into the performance.

After filming started again, Lan Li seamlessly entered the performance state.

Slowly, slowly, Ryan floated towards the station, then slammed into the station, and after his balance was broken, he scrambled again to try to gain his footing, grabbed a point of strength, and stabilized himself again, and after a period of upheaval, he finally managed to grab the handrail outside the station.

Under the double impact of the mental and physical plane, Ryan has almost lost the ability to think, and Alex, who is drifting away, noticed Ryan's turmoil, and he exclaimed, "Ryan, can you hear me?"

But in the midst of the chaos, Ryan's oxygen has been reduced to less than one percent, carbon dioxide begins to warn, he completely loses the ability to think, and the survival instinct/ability begins to enter the drowning stage, in the desperate mood, he almost loses the ability to fight, he just subconsciously talks to Alex, but there is no substantive action.

Turning around, Ryan saw Alex gradually turning into a small white dot in space, and all thoughts were lost.

At this point, neither of them could see each other's eyes and expressions, just a white dot the size of a finger, Ryan was like that, and so was Alex.

For a long time, Alex's words were not responded to by Ryan, this time, Alex took a soft breath, and a sonorous force burst out from his calm voice, "Ryan, I need you to calm down, I need you to concentrate." I need you. ”

Simple words have a powerful force, in the vast universe, become a bridge, connecting Ryan and Alex again, and then you can see Ryan shaking his head, trying to keep his brain clear, staring at Alex's figure deadly, dead eyes, little by little.

The consciousness of survival is revived again!
