Chapter I
In July, although the temperature reported in the weather forecast was not so high, it was still hot and sweaty after standing under the sun for a long time. Chen Mo pushed the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose a little impatiently, and wiped the sweat on his head with his backhand. The center of gravity of the lower body moved slightly, and he sat on the prop wall without a trace, shaking a prop fan to fan the wind.
On the set, the chief director Zhang Qingzhong shouted "click" again, moved his face away from behind the camera, and asked Lin Xia impatiently: "Do you know how to act?" ”
Lin Xia, who hadn't been going on for twenty-three times in a row, bowed and apologized to everyone with a flushed face, and Sun Yuan, who was playing against Lin Xia, pouted his lips impatiently, and was helped to his seat to rest by the assistant, ignoring Lin Xia who looked embarrassed in the audience.
Chen Mo squinted his eyes, held his chin and looked at Lin Xia, who was full of gray face, and raised his eyebrows with some pity.
Lin Xia's agent, Sister Hong, walked into the set with two assistants, both of whom were carrying cold dessert ice cream in their hands, and led Lin Xia to compensate everyone while handing them out. Although the crew was dissatisfied with Lin Xia dragging down the progress of the entire crew, they were embarrassed to say anything while eating the things sent by Sister Hong.
A makeup artist came over with a makeup case to touch up Lin Xia's makeup, Lin Xia sat obediently on the leisure chair on the side, raised his face to cooperate with the makeup artist's movements, and his slightly erected chest was exposed in the blazing sun, revealing a piece of snow white and slippery, Chen Mo looked at it quietly, and then looked at it again.
After the makeup artist finished making up and left, Chen Mo casually took out a bag of ice cubes from the iron bucket under the wall, carefully wrapped it in gauze, and walked to Lin Xia with a smile. While handing her the ice pack, he said with a smile: "It's too hot, let's cover the ice pack to relieve the heat." ”
Lin Xia was slightly stunned, and when he looked up, it turned out to be a small drama new to the crew. I heard that I only went to high school this year, and I don't have any background at home, and I have to come out to work and study during the summer vacation, but I don't know how to say that the director asked him to do drama affairs, and now he is responsible for distributing boxed lunches to the crew.
Lin Xia looked at Chen Mo quietly, he looked handsome, white and tender, and his temperament was gentle and considerate, but it was a pity that there was no background at home.
A trace of contempt and pity flashed in his eyes, and Lin Xia smiled with a slightly reserved smile: "Thank you, but I'm not used to using ice packs." ”
As he spoke, he turned around and took out a small fan from the side of the recliner, but unfortunately the weather was stuffy today, and even the wind was hot. Lin Xia blew for a while, feeling even more irritable, so he stopped the fan and threw it into his bag. Bow your head and put on sunglasses, feel out the script and look through it. I didn't mean to talk to Chen Mo.
Chen Mo touched his nose in a daze, only to feel that this time he had become himself. The tip of the ear can still hear a small voice behind him, snickering-
"It's just a boxed lunch, and I want to be a star......"
"Clams and toads want to eat swan meat......"
Chen Mo shook his head self-deprecatingly, and casually threw the ice pack into the iron bucket containing half a load of ice cubes, and the muffled sound seemed to remind him of his embarrassing situation now.
From the flattered rich second generation to a small drama that makes it too hard for others to roll their eyes, such a change is not the worst for Chen Mo. When I opened my eyes, I was surrounded by a strange person. In addition to a familiar name, the country that is no longer familiar, the relatives who are no longer familiar, history turned a corner at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and the second female emperor who recorded the annals of history and the Qing Dynasty and the current Chinese Empire for hundreds of years have made Chen Mo understand that the time and space where he is no longer a familiar one. When you open your eyes, all you can feel is loneliness and unease. Excluding the spoof of Truman's world, the highly regarded time travel and rebirth on the Internet have no other benefit than to make people suffer in Chen Mo's view.
Chen Mo didn't quite understand, he didn't have a blood revenge to avenge, and he didn't have the desire to be dissatisfied with life and want to start over, why would fate choose him to cross over?
Chen Mo was unwilling, but he had been tossing like a fool since he woke up in the hospital three months ago, and he finally accepted the reality - the moment he clearly realized that he couldn't go back. However, the current one qiē is not so easy to accept. The huge gap between poverty and wealth is not only reflected in money and material, but also in the views and attitudes of others. In the past, those female stars flattered him with their heads, and now they even disdain him for a third-line idol vase.
Such a disparity made the embarrassed Chen Mo have no face to stay on the set anymore, and it happened to be lunch break again, Chen Mo immediately found an excuse to get out and walked for half an hour into the Don't Come Restaurant on the opposite street outside the film and television city. At noon, the diners in the restaurant were crowded and chattering, and even the waiters who walked back and forth were unable to move. Chen's mother sat behind the cash register, her head down, busy in the dark, sweat the size of a bean slipped down her forehead, and her chest and back were soaked with sweat.
Seeing this, Chen Mo directly retreated and went around the back door into the kitchen, and said listlessly to Chen's father, who was flipping the spoon: "What about the crew's lunch box, I'll deliver the meal." ”
Dad Chen turned around, looked at the baby son in front of him, and shouted in a thick voice: "What's wrong, is it uncomfortable?" Why don't you tell your brother-in-law that we're back, and it's only been two days since I came out of the hospital, and the doctor told you to have a good rest. ”
Chen Mo pursed his lips a little depressedly, looked at the familiar and strange people in front of him, drooped his head and said, "It's okay, I'm fine in the crew." I don't work much just to watch the play. Besides, I told people that I was going to do a summer vacation, and I left halfway. ”
If he was to stay in a restaurant all day, he would be even more uncomfortable in front of a group of familiar strangers.
Dad Chen poured the freshly fried emerald green cucumber into the plate, waved his hand and ordered the food to be sent to the front. He turned around and took out a plate of cut watermelon from the refrigerator, handed it to Chen Mo and said, "It's too hot this day, eat some watermelon to cool off." ”
Chen Mo answered, silently took the plate and ate the watermelon. Chen's father cautiously looked at Chen Mo, who was emaciated, three months ago he was clamoring for refusing to recognize his parents, and two months ago he refused to talk to them and was about to run away from home, but his son wilted after going to Kyoto for some reason. Although they don't squeak much now, they won't be running around the world behind their backs.
Dad Chen sniffed a little sadly, held his throat and said, "Didn't you want to eat Buddha and jump over the wall before?" I'll make it for you, and you'll go to the set when you're done. ”
Chen Mo turned his head and looked at the strange and familiar face in front of him. is also a father, one is the CEO of a listed group, and the other is a small restaurant on the street. One basically can't see people except for giving money every month, but after he said something casually, he made a Buddha and jumped over the wall for him to eat in spite of the hot day......
Chen Mo rubbed his nose with his hand a little troubledly, and said in a low voice: "The crew of more than 100 people is still waiting for me to deliver food, and I will eat it when I come back in the evening." ”
After thinking about it, he screwed back again, "Thank you." ”
Dad Chen was stunned for a moment, then touched the back of his head and grinned: "This kid, what are you polite to your father." ”
After speaking, he rubbed his thighs in a fit of relief, got up and urged a few waiters to load the boxed lunches that had been prepared long ago into the van.
Chen Mo raised his head and said to Chen's father: "There are also two single-pack vegetarian dishes, don't forget." ”
Chen's father lit a cigarette, took a cigarette in his mouth and said, "Stir-fried vegetables must be freshly fried to be delicious." It's just two vegetarian dishes, a matter of minutes. ”
After speaking, I fried two vegetarian cucumbers and celery lilies, and when I touched the packing box, I found that the previous lunch box was used up. Dad Chen scolded in a low voice, turned around and took out a new bag of lunch boxes from the cabinet and took one with vegetables. said casually: "The little girl now is really hypocritical, she doesn't eat this, she doesn't eat that, she is as thin as a white bone spirit, and I don't know where to see it." Women, you have to have big breasts and big butts to look good. ”
Hearing this, Chen Mo thought about Lin Xia's bumpy and particularly hot figure, shook his head secretly, and said, "It's not that I'm a picky eater, I heard that this little star is the ambassador of the Animal Love Association." In order to protect small animals, they refuse to eat meat. ”
When Chen's father heard this, he sneered and didn't speak, but just threw the lunch box into the van. Just as he was about to turn around and call a guy to help drive, he saw Chen Mo say "go" to him, and he simply stepped on the accelerator in the driver's seat and went to the film and television city. Seeing that Chen's father was stunned, he grabbed his head and asked, "When did this kid learn to drive, why don't I know?" ”
Chen Mo drove the car all the way into the set, because the shooting in the morning was not smooth, the director was angry and directly let the crew rest. Everyone waited for a long time to wait for the box lunch, and they all complained again and again for a while. Chen Mo looked down at his mobile phone, it was only a little over twelve and a half, he could only shake his head and smile bitterly, and send a boxed lunch in a muffled voice.
Although the crew's boxed lunch is a big pot of rice, it is actually divided into three, six, nine and so on. At least there is a difference between the director, the leading actor and the extras' lunch box in terms of the amount of dishes. This is all tacit things, Chen Molai was instructed by his uncle Jiang Jie on the first day, and even asked Chen's father to mark and distinguish when he packed the lunch box. In this way, even if he has been careless, everyone will not pick the wrong lunch box when they look at the outer packaging of the lunch box.
After handing out lunch boxes to the crew, Chen Mo returned to the van with two white plastic boxes, only to find that there were two fresh-keeping lunch boxes in the corner of the back seat. Chen Mo was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought of the Buddha jumping over the wall that Chen's father said before, and immediately leaned over to take the fresh-keeping lunch box to him, lifted the lid of the box and took a look, only to feel a strong fragrance coming to his nose, and sure enough, it was the Buddha jumping over the wall that Chen's father had spent a lot of energy to make. In the other compartment, there is a tightly covered rice, which is crystal full and moderately soft and hard, which is Chen Mo's favorite taste. Another fresh-keeping lunch box contains cut fruits of various colors, fresh watermelon, dragon fruit, cantaloupe on top, and a large layer of ice cubes chilled underneath, exuding a hint of coldness in the hot afternoon-
Chen Mo subconsciously looked at his watch, it was already more than one o'clock in the afternoon, it was the time of lunch, the restaurant was busy with his feet not touching the ground, Qin's mother and Chen's father were so arrogant, they could pack the lunch box so finely......
Chen Mo sat in the steamer-like van for a long time before picking up chopsticks and silently bowing his head to eat.
But before he could take two bites, he heard a sudden noise on the set outside, someone shouting something at the top of his voice, mixed with the click of pressing the shutter and the shouts of the crew to maintain order on the scene. Chen Mo couldn't help but feel two points of curiosity in his heart. He put down the lunch box in his hand and got out of the van with his head down.
At this moment, there was already chaos on the set, and the reporters and paparazzi who were originally squatting outside the set somehow rushed into the set, surrounding Wei Zifu's actor Lin Xia's agent Sister Hong and several other crew members in the middle, and the noisy voices were mixed together so that it was impossible to hear what they said. Chen Mo stood on the periphery and watched blankly for a while, then he felt someone quietly pat him on the shoulder.
Chen Mo looked back, it turned out to be the counselor* of the crew, and whispered to him: "Come here, the director will call you." ”
Chen Mo was stunned for a moment, and immediately followed * to the director's lounge. Only then did I find out that in addition to the chief director of the crew, his brother-in-law Jiang Jie and Lin Xia were all in the lounge.
After seeing Chen Mo, Jiang Jie smiled at him comfortingly, and said, "Xiaomo, don't worry, the director called you over this time." I hope you can help the crew. ”
Hearing this, before Chen Mo could react, he saw that Lin Xia, who had not paid much attention to him before, actually took the initiative to step forward and hold his hand and shook it, and said to him pitifully with teary eyes: "Chen Mo, please help me." This time I have to help me, or I will be miserable. ”
Hearing this, Chen Mo was even more stunned.
