At the end of May, Han Qiu and others flew to their last stop: Los Angeles in the United States.

Start and end there.

Here, Han Qiu not only has to shoot the ending of the movie, but also the plot of the beginning of the movie. Because the two old men first met in the hospital, Morgan finally died in the hospital.

And for the sake of the plot, the two old men need to shave their hair.

This must not be shaved at the very beginning, otherwise it will be shaved bald, and the later plot will not be filmed. That's why Han Qiu filmed the beginning and end plots together.

At this moment, in a private hospital in Los Angeles, the crew is filming here.

In the movie, Jack plays Edward, a billionaire, a super-rich man who is treated with courtesy even by the president of the United States. He bought many hospitals and converted them into private ones, still adhering to the so-called "one room, two beds" principle.

No VIP treatment, no special care, and no single rooms. Rich or poor, you can only accept the treatment of two people in a room here.

This is also the reason why a rich man and a car mechanic were able to meet and get acquainted.

In the hospital, there is no coherence between the beginning and the end, after all, there is a crazy trip in between. After coming back, the two were in different moods. If there is a connecting shot, it is the discussion between the two about coffee.

There's one wish on the bucket list: laugh out of tears.

This is a very simple wish, but it is a pity that the two old people spent their whole lives and did not realize it until they were about to die.

And what made the two old men laugh and tears was a kind of coffee, which was called Ruak coffee, also known as cat feces coffee.

An extremely expensive coffee that has no market price.

In the ward, the actors, cameras, lights, and so on are ready. Morgan was wearing a white hospital gown, lying on the hospital bed with a big bald head, and his body was full of various infusion tubes. Jack is dressed in a suit and stands in front of an old friend's hospital bed.

"Morgan, watch you perform. Han Qiu pointed to his eyes, "I need tears." ”

"Director Han, I'll do my best, if I really can't do it, you can only give me eye drops. Morgan made a joke.

Han Qiu pretended to be angry: "Then you'd better pray that I won't drip into your nostrils." ”

"Haha. ”

“action！”

The two quickly got into the groove, and Morgan asked, "Are you still drinking that extravagant coffee?"

"What?" Jack looked puzzled, "you're all like this, and you're still worried about that?"

Morgan smiled and took out a piece of paper and handed it to Jack, "Read this." ”

Jack glanced at Morgan and said, "Luak coffee is the most expensive coffee in the world...."

"It's out of the village around Sumatra. ”

"There is a cat out there called a civet cat, which feeds on coffee fruits....."

The more Jack reads, the more wrong his expression becomes, and by the end of the reading, his face has become stranger. "After the pulp is digested... Coffee beans are eliminated from the feces. ”

"The villagers collected and processed the cat's feces to get this coffee. The original mellow aroma of coffee beans is digested and fermented by the cat's stomach to form the unparalleled taste and aroma of Ruvaca coffee. Fragrance. ”

After Jack finished reading, he glared at Morgan angrily: "Are you kidding me?"

"This cat is too strong, I'm convinced..."Morgan looked at Jack with a speechless look on his face and laughed with a poof. Han Qiu and the staff around him didn't know what Morgan was thinking now, maybe he was thinking about other funny things, maybe he was thinking that Jack would definitely hurt after knowing that he had drunk "cat" for a lifetime.

Maybe I'm thinking that maybe I won't be able to see Jack's constipated face after drinking "cat feces" in the future.

Jack laughed out loud when he saw Morgan's uncontrollable smile.

"Hahaha...."

The two old drama bones looked at each other like this, smiling like two neuropaths.

Han Qiu stared at Morgan's face, and kept silently saying in his heart: Tears, please, tears.

As he wished, Morgan burst into tears and laughed out of tears.

Han Qiu didn't know how he acted it, but it wouldn't be easy.

Afterwards, Morgan crossed out the "laugh and tears" item from the bucket list as a result of the pen handed over by Jack.

Under the lens, the list at this time is already covered with scratches one after another.

“cut。 ”

Han Qiu shouted to stop.

But the tears in Morgan's eyes were still flowing.

"Director Han, I'm sorry, let me slow down, I'm about to enter the operating room, and I'm going to die soon. Morgan wiped the corners of his eyes and joked with Han Qiu again.

According to the plot, he was indeed about to hang up and died in the operating room.

Han Qiu also joked: "I can change the script, if you want." ”

"How, how to change, let me come back from the dead?"

Han Qiu nodded: "Yes, a miracle in the history of medicine, cancer cells are dispelled with a smile." ”

"Come on, Director Han. Morgan waved his hand, and after all this fuss, the sadness he had brewed was gone.

"I just see you're sad. Han Qiu shrugged.

Morgan nodded, and then asked, "Do you know what came to mind when I was acting?"

"What? cat poop coffee?"

"I'll admit that cat poop coffee amused me, especially when I saw Jack's depressed look, haha. Morgan smiled and winked sourly, "But I'm not crying because I can't drink cat coffee in the future, or because I can't see Jack's depressed appearance when I'm dead, do you know what I'm thinking?"

Han Qiu was curious: "What is it?"

"Come here, I'll tell you. ”

Jack was still lying down, and when he said hello, Han Qiu simply sat on the edge of the bed, as if he was really listening to a dying old man.

"Director Han, it's because..."

.......

Half a month later, "Bucket List" was successfully completed, and Han Qiu returned to China with the materials.

He promised Zhou Yuxin that he would come back before the summer vacation, so he must do what he said.

After arriving at the Modu Airport, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. Han Qiu called the company's car, went to the kindergarten first, and waited in the car until more than four o'clock.

Before the kindergarten ended, and Zhou Yuxin didn't wait to pick up the child, Han Qiu waited for his father first.

It seems that today is my father who came to pick up Mu Xi and Mu Chen from school.

"Dad. Han Qiu got out of the car directly and shouted.

"Han Qiu?" the father looked at his son in surprise, "When did you come back? After the filming was over, why didn't you say anything to the family? How worried are we about you? Yuxin is still waiting for your news at home." ”

Dad has a lot of questions, like a machine gun shooting bullets, so fast that even Han Qiu didn't hear clearly.

So, he simply gave his dad a hug: "Dad, I'm back." ”

The father was stunned, the question he asked just now seemed to be forgotten, patted his son's shoulder, and smiled with satisfaction: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”

Han Qiu smiled happily at his father.

After a while, after the kindergarten ended, Mu Xi took Mu Chen's hand and walked out.

"Dad, are you back?" Mu Xi's big eyes lit up, and she jumped into Fang Han Qiu's arms.

"It's back. Han Qiu smiled and rubbed Mu Xi's soft hair, as warm as cotton.

Mu Chen also quietly walked up and quietly grabbed the corner of Han Qiu's clothes. "Daddy...."

Han Qiu picked up Mu Chen again and held the two children tightly in his arms. Mu Xi noticed Han Qiu's face and wondered, "Dad, why are you smiling all the time?"

"Because Daddy is happy. ”

"No, Dad, you used to make movies and come home, you didn't giggle like this. ”

Giggle?

Han Qiu couldn't cry or laugh, this bear kid also learned the word giggle?

"Mu Xi, do you know what a giggle is?"

"Yes. Mu Xi nodded cutely, stretched out two little hands to pull Han Qiu's face, "It's like Dad, smiling like a big fool." ”

Han Qiu didn't get angry, and asked rhetorically, "Then Mu Xi likes to laugh like this?"

Mu Xi tilted her head and thought for a long time before saying, "I like it, as long as it's my father's, I like it." ”

Han Qiu buried his head in Mu Xi's small shoulder socket: "As long as Mu Xi likes it, Dad will keep smirking." ”

......

When he got home, Han Qiu pulled the two children and did not go in directly, but hid behind the gate outside the courtyard and quietly looked inside.

"Dad, what are you doing?" Mu Xi nudged Han Qiu.

"Shh~~~" Han Qiu raised his fingers.

Seeing this, the two children also followed Han Qiu's example and poked their heads out secretly.

In the courtyard, Zhou Yuxin sat on the steps, holding Xiaoba in her arms. While touching Hachi's soft hair, she said quietly:

"Xiaoba, you've been in our house for eight or nine years, right? I remember that when you came, Mu Chen and Mu Xi hadn't been born yet. ”

"Now Mu Xi and Mu Chen are both six years old...."

"Your master has been making movies for twenty years. ”

"Twenty years, how many twenty years can we have in our lifetime..."

Hachi sniffed suddenly, and then twisted his body uneasily: "Wangwang." ”

"What's wrong?"

"Wang. Xiaoba rushed out of Zhou Yuxin's arms directly, and then rushed out of the gate while shouting.

Zhou Yuxin turned around and saw Xiaoba throw himself into the arms of a familiar figure.

"Yuxin, I'm back. Han Qiu "smirked", just like when he was filming Bagong, every day when Han Qiu came back from work, Xiao Ba would throw himself into Han Qiu's arms, and Zhou Yuxin leaned on the door at that time, watching this scene with a smile.

For many years, Zhou Yuxin seems to have seen this scene again, but after so many years, today's picture is exceptionally clear.

Han Qiu smiled and smiled, and a tear fell from the corner of his eye.

He remembered what Morgan had said to him.

"I'm not crying because I won't be able to drink cat coffee in the future, or because I'm afraid of dying and not seeing Jack's depressed look, do you know what I'm thinking?"

"Director Han, it's because.... I'm worried that my family and friends won't be able to laugh when I'm gone....."
