This is the end of the morning's shooting, although Todd did not use the front and back shooting techniques from beginning to end, and vaguely seemed to be provoking Lan Li, but Lan Li still chose to shut up, did not express any opinions, and remained silent throughout the whole process, quietly watching the filming work.

Occasionally, in between filming, Lan Li was also very approachable, chatting with the staff, but maintaining proportion, and after the filming restarted, he kept quiet, talking and laughing and just right, this self-control and control kept the filming atmosphere of the whole crew happy.

It's just that someone can still pick a bone in the egg, and he dislikes the shooting interval is too noisy, although he didn't name him, but all the eyes of the audience were projected towards Lan Li, even Kate and Rooney didn't know, why did Lan Li, a gentleman, suddenly offend the director?

According to rumors, Todd is a very low-key and very peaceful director, he rarely argues with people, and he will not rashly make enemies with others, but why is Todd not in tune with Lan Li's aura? This makes Kate a little gloating, and the reputation is that "the charm of heartthrobs also hits the wall".

Lan Li said that his head was full of black lines: first, he was not a heartthrob, and second, he was repulsive to the same sex, had you ever heard of this sentence? His charm did not necessarily impress Todd. But Lan Li also has a word of suffering, and he can't even defend himself, so he can only eat Coptis chinensis dumbly and swallow all the bitterness.

Actually, Lan Li himself is a little inexplicable—is it just because of the phrase "positive and negative fighting"? No, is Todd so cautious? However, judging from the news he has heard before, this is not the case at all; or is Todd aware of the real purpose of Lan Li's visit to the class?

At lunchtime, Lan Li asked Nathan to book a special dining car in advance, and included a special dessert for afternoon tea as a small gift for visiting the class.

Lan Li also stayed in the crew for lunch.

Kate and Rooney both came to Lan Li's side, naturally sat down, and began to eat together. Kate gave Lan Li a meaningful look, as if to say, "I'll keep it a secret", and after Rooney learned that Kate already knew the secret, the intimacy of sharing the secret together also made the two of them more relaxed, and the tacit understanding between her and Kate skyrocketed, and the laughter was very relaxed and happy.

At the same time, Lan Li has undoubtedly become the busiest person in the entire crew.

More than two-thirds of the crew members made a special trip to take pictures with Lan Li, or have a simple conversation, or ask for autographs, or ask questions, or express attitudes...... Regardless, everyone was circling around Lan Li, and only a very small number of staff members flaunted their "mud without staining", refusing to follow the crowd, and left the focus area of Lan Li's place, seemingly uninterested.

This also makes the lunch time of the "Carol" crew present a wonderful scene, with a lively and high-minded line, clearly demarcating the line - this also proves once again the fact that Lan Li is not a "heartthrob", even in Hollywood, there are people who are unwilling to buy it.

Director Todd sat alone and miserable next to the dining car not far away to enjoy lunch, the cold and deserted appearance formed a vacuum, and the appearance of grazing with a box of salad became more and more pitiful, making people have an urge to wipe tears.

In the end, it was Kate who stepped out in person, pulling Todd to join Lan Li and Rooney, and then opened the conversation heartily and bluntly, "Todd, I know that you are a literary and artistic young man, and you want to maintain your image of not eating fireworks in the world." But in fact, we all know, the whole crew knows, you also have to eat, drink and lazar, and the person who fart/farted on the set yesterday is you. ”

The straight words made Todd laugh out loud.

Unexpectedly, Todd was a personality who liked such types of jokes - or there was another explanation, he just didn't like Lan Li, so he didn't like Lan Li no matter what he said or did. Perhaps, there is no grudge between the two of them, but they are destined to have discord.

This is also an objective situation.

Thanks to Kate's activity, the lunch atmosphere was obviously relaxed, but Lan Li still didn't stay too long, and after the lunch was over, he officially said goodbye to the crew-

Because he knows that as long as he continues to stay in the crew, it is estimated that Todd will have to bother, and there will be no way to completely feel at ease, that invisible barrier will always exist, for the quality of the finished product of "Carol", he still chooses to leave more appropriately, not to mention, he also needs to go to Los Angeles, and he himself has a shooting job waiting for it.

Rooney wholeheartedly prepared for the afternoon shooting, and did not give up at all, but Kate made a special trip to escort Lan Li out, and did not mention anything in particular, just chatting about the question of "how to play the villain in a superhero movie and captivate the audience so that they can't help but fall in love with the villain".

The two talked happily, standing at the door of the set and chattering for a long time, if it wasn't for the drama to come out to inform Kate that the filming was about to start, I'm afraid they would still be able to continue chatting, and finally, Kate waved goodbye to Lan Li, turned around and returned to the crew to work.

As for Lan Li?

Lan Li walked to his car alone, and was about to leave in the quiet crew, but after getting in the car, Lan Li did not drive away immediately, but sat behind the steering wheel of the driver's seat, as if he was relaxing. It's just that the crew was once again engaged in filming, and no one noticed Lan Li's stay, and then ...... Time flows quietly and babblingly, and the trivial sound of the treetops swaying can be heard outside the window.

The world is so quiet, so quiet that only the sound of the wind is left to depict the traces of life and the outline of life, and there is a kind of comfort and comfort of isolation in a trance.

"Knock knock. ”

A gentle knock on the passenger window broke the silence, and Lan Li turned his head to look, and then saw the short black man who was in charge of the maintenance of the entry and exit of the set, with a kind smile on his face, and cast his gaze into the car with some concern and some concern.

Lan Li rolled down the window, and the other party asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

This made Lan Li show a warm smile, "No, I'm fine, I'm just recording the inspiration." Lan Li raised the notebook in his hand and gestured, "Dale, thank you for your concern." ”

"Oh, oh, that's good. Dale patted his head a little jerkyly, "I'm really sorry if I bothered you, I just think ...... Forget it, don't worry, you're fine. ”

Lan Li smiled and shook his head, "Thank you for your concern, I'm fine, I'm not bothered, don't worry." ”

Dale tapped the car window slightly, smiled at Lan Li again, and then turned to leave.

Lan Li sat behind the wheel and continued to jot down some ideas in his notebook, then tore one of the pages off, folded it up, and then started the engine and carefully drove the car out of the parking space - he didn't want to crash into other cars in a reckless manner.

After leaving the parking space, Lan Li drove in the direction of the house where the crew was, and finally stopped in front of Dale and rolled down the window.

Dale was a little surprised, stood up quickly, hunched over to look at Lan Li, and asked through the passenger seat, "Is there any problem?"

"No, no. Lan Li laughed, "Dale, thank you for spending a wonderful time with me today, I really, really like you, so I prepared a small gift, I hope you will like it." Lan Li handed the folded letter from the passenger seat to Dell.

Dale wanted to refuse, but seeing that it was a piece of letterhead and not some valuables, he was a little relieved, and a curious look appeared on his face, "What is this? Oh God, I have nothing to give you in return, this is really rude." ”

"Dale, the inspiration for this gift came from you. Lan Li smiled and said, "It's just a little heart, I hope you can always keep that heart that loves movies, that's the best thing I've seen this year, to be honest, I'm a little envious of you." "Even though the years have changed and the body is no longer young, it is indeed enviable to maintain a pure heart.

Dale laughed happily, "Haha, it's something to be happy about being able to make Lan Li envious." He did not modestly deny it, "I will keep it up, and then continue to make you jealous." Like an old urchin, he laughed heartily. "You know what? If you can make a work like 'Drunken Country Folk' again, you're going to be my favorite actor of the 21st century. ”

"Oh, my pleasure! Well, I'll do my best. Lan Li didn't think there was anything wrong with Dale's words, and it was an honor for him to be recognized by a fan who truly loved movies, and in some ways, even comparable to EGOT's affirmation - because both of them came from a sincere love and madness, then this trophy is worthy of recognition.

The most important thing is that the original intention of liking and loving - just like a child, pure, simple, sincere and crazy love.

It's not because Dale likes Lan Li, even if Dale hates Lan Li, but Dale's enthusiasm for movies is still real, which also makes his opinions precious, praise and criticism, love and disgust, all from the heart, then it is beautiful.

A tribute to everyone who is still willing to get carried away and love what they love.

Therefore, Lan Li thought that he needed to give Dale a gift, because in that smile that had been through many vicissitudes, he found the true meaning of life:

Only by truly embracing differences, truly embracing differences, truly embracing oneself, and truly embracing the difficulties and setbacks in life, can we comprehend the beauty of life. Not hatred, but love. Even dreams sparkle because of love, otherwise, dreams themselves have no power, just a beautiful bouquet of plastic flowers.
