"How was your sleep last night? I guess I couldn't sleep because I was too excited, right?" Lan Li asked in a relaxed tone.

Sure enough, Timothy didn't think much about it, just raised his hand to hold his forehead, "I...... I don't even know how I fell asleep, I just lay on the bed, rolled over, my eyes widened, and before I knew it, I was asleep, but I'm sure it was already two o'clock in the morning, or three o'clock? I'm not sure, the sheep had already been counted to more than three thousand. ”

"More than 3,000 haven't gone wrong yet, are you sure you're not a math genius?, right, what do you think?" in the second half of the sentence, Lan Li said to McKenzi, including Xiao Nizi in the scope of the conversation.

Mackenzie stuck out his tongue and grimaced, "More than 3,000 is a mathematical genius, so if you can count to 30,000, is it comparable to Einstein." ”

Timothy was still a little shy and was trying to justify that he was not good at math, but McKenzie's complaint diverted his attention, "Einstein? Are you sure it's not Hawking?"

"Stephen Hawking is a physicist, okay? Don't think I don't know. Mackenzie glanced at Timothy speechlessly.

Timothy tilted his head and said without showing weakness, "The focus is not on physics and mathematics, okay? All the disciplines of the natural sciences are interconnected! I mean, the focus of Lan Li is not Einstein at all, but my insomnia!"

But before he could finish speaking, Mackenzie made a grimace at Timothy with bared teeth, as if he was complaining and fighting back, Timothy couldn't help but widen his eyes and turned his head to Lan Li to cast a pleading look.

That's how children are. One second they are like glue, and the next second they don't communicate with each other.

McKenzie is younger, naïve and romantic, and Timothy is older and frivolous, but both are still children after all. In the face of such a childish act of McKenzie, Timothy was also helpless, wanting to be angry but unable to vent, so he could only ask for help.

"I decided to remain neutral. Lan Li raised his hands and looked like he was out of the way, and then he couldn't help but laugh at the sight of Mackenzie's triumphant smile and Timothy's annoyed expression.

After a moment's pause, Lan Li continued, "My point is that the guy who had insomnia last night had better go to the bathroom and wash his face now, otherwise he will fall asleep in a while;

Jessica Chastain and Anne Hathaway, who were standing not far away, immediately tasted the subtle difference.

It's not about acting skills or anything like that, it's about acting style. You can faintly feel that Lan Li is adjusting the tone of her voice and the style of handling things, as if she is ...... A fatherly one.

In order to shoot "Interstellar", Lan Li started growing beards again two weeks ago.

For Westerners, the beard is an important part of the style, in addition to the goatee, doughnut beard, beard, sideburns, Viking beard, upper lip mustache, beard, Ren Dan beard, Victoria beard, hippie beard, the most basic beard can also be classified, different styles of beard can show different temperament and characteristics.

During the filming of "Drunken Country Folk", Lan Li used to grow a little beard, mainly to reflect the tiredness of Levien after running around in just one weekend, but now for "Interstellar", the purpose is completely different, on the one hand, to show the age gap, to deepen the visual effect of his father, and on the other hand, to show Cooper's interest.

When he entered the crew, Lan Li's beard had already extended along the curve of his chin, and the cyan stubble was gradually evolving into a dark color, covering the curve of his face, and the whole person's temperament had become vicissitudes and mature, and the gloom and loneliness between the eyebrows could be faintly captured.

At the same time, a little simple trimming, but not too deliberate to adjust the details, as if you had forgotten about it after a casual trim just three days ago, and then the beard became messy again, and the small details can faintly depict the exhaustion and messiness of being a single father.

At this time, Lan Li, who was standing in front of him, was wearing a simple denim blue shirt, with sleeves rolled up to the elbows, his slightly messy hair and beard seemed to have not been taken care of for a short time, his brows were not wrinkled, but he could still feel the depth and precipitation under the calm lake, and even the smile on the corner of his mouth became warm and mellow.

Although Lan Li has no way to change his age, he has increased by ten or fifteen years overnight, but there is no need for special makeup to cover up and adjust, the change of temperament between the eyebrows gives a sense of experience that has been full of vicissitudes, and the mature charm revealed faintly does change the temperament.

It's like a father.

All the words and deeds of Lan Li just now fully showed the calmness and kindness of a father, who didn't seem to know how to deal with disputes between his children, so he could only try his best to stay out of the matter, and then give orders decisively to sort out all the situations, which cannot be said to be perfect, at least trying.

Lan Li is bringing in the characters little by little. There is no long preaching or chicken soup, but in the process of getting along, everyone is quietly brought into the performance situation, and it is truly like a family getting along. You don't need to think about the lines, you don't need to worry about the performance, you just fit into it naturally.

As long as they can adapt to this rhythm and actually enter the shooting, the two young people, Timothy and McKenzie, will be able to effortlessly get into the groove and present the scenes in the script.

For child stars, they are more often performing in their true colors, relying on their own spirituality to interpret the role, and there are not too many skills and methods to speak of. This is normal. Now Lan Li is creating a relaxed but natural atmosphere, subtly allowing the two young actors to play freely.

It's easy to say, but it's hard to do, but for the current Blue Ceremony, it's not that difficult.

This subtle change is not felt at all when you are in it—neither Timothy nor McKenzie feel it, but when you step out of the environment and look at it, the whole feeling suddenly becomes vivid.

Jessica pursed the corners of her lips, then leaned towards Anne slightly, "I'm not sure if it's my delusion, I think this kind of blue gift seems to be more attractive." ”

Anne couldn't help but purse her lips and chuckled, "He used to look like a boy, but now he looks like a man." Jessica nodded in agreement, and the two exchanged glances and chuckled at the same time, with a cheerful smile in her eyes.

……

The entire crew was in full swing, with Annie and Jessica standing next to each other chattering and discussing, while Lan Li and the three co-actors were discussing the first scene that was about to start filming.

For Timothy and McKenzie, the tension and crampedness faded during the exchange, and it seemed to be the best way to concentrate on the performance discussion, but it was only when they actually started filming that Timothy noticed the faint sense of weirdness -

Why is there a seamless connection between the conversation and the filming on the spot, and how is it that there is no sense of disobedience?

"'Interstellar', Alberta, first scene, first time, start filming!"

The sound of the scene reverberated crisply and loudly through the wooden house, officially announcing the start of filming.

"Hurry up, Murphy, come here. Donald was making breakfast and called out to him, while Tom sat down at the table early, enjoying his breakfast.

Cooper had just gotten up, made his way to the dining room, poured himself a cup of coffee, and walked down the hall, babbling, "Come to the barn at four, and I'll tell you what herbicides are all about." Do you hear that?"

"Yes, Sir. Tom slipped the scrambled egg into his mouth and replied in a muffled voice as he tried to swallow the food.

At this point, Murphy came to the hall, still holding two bits and pieces in his hand, and sat down in his place, Donald walked over and put the scrambled eggs into Murphy's plate, "Don't take it to the table to play, Murphy." ”

Murphy looked at his grandfather, then at Cooper, who was checking the computer data next to the stove, "Daddy, can you fix it?"

Cooper turned around with his coffee and frowned slightly, "What the hell did you do to my landing module?" The tail note was raised high, not reproach, but surprise and complaining, and his words did not hide his helplessness.

"Not me. Murphy immediately pleaded.

Tom, who was sitting across from him, took a sip of milk, with liquid in his mouth, and complained disdainfully, "Let me guess, it's your ghost?"

Murphy shrugged, "It shook it off the shelf, and so did a number of books." ”

"There's no such thing as a ghost!, idiot!" Tom spit with a deliberately fierce expression, but before the words could be spoken, Timothy closed his eyes, "I'm sorry! I just looked straight at the camera!

Without Christopher interrupting the shoot, Timothy was already grinning and apologizing, annoyed by his amateur performance.

Lan Li didn't make a fuss at all, raised his hand and patted Timothy's head, deliberately messing up the curly hair, "Then be polite to your sister, and scold if you don't move." From inside and outside the play, the gentle tone didn't seem to change at all, and then the atmosphere became subtle again, "Don't care about the camera, you need to look at your sister." It's okay to stay focused, remember? You're making a fuss right now, naughty one. ”

Timothy clasped his head in his hands and let out a low wail.

Mackenzie chuckled.

After a mistake, the atmosphere of the crew didn't have time to tense up, and then Lan Li had already resolved the situation, and more importantly, the atmosphere belonging to their family became more and more harmonious.
