102. Chapter 102

"Alai" is a great tragedy, an absolute tragedy, and it is the kind of tragedy that is extremely depressing from beginning to end.

Alai was beaten half to death by a sneak attack, and finally didn't see her go to the hillside in a daze after a fixed time, and the old man vaguely felt that something was wrong, and came out to pick her up in the puddle.

In the next few days, the old man took care of Alai meticulously, not only sharing his few rations with her, but even spending most of the day trekking through mountains and rivers to buy medicine in the town. The relationship between the two quickly became harmonious, like family and not like family, and they also began to talk about topics that they would not touch on before.

In fact, Alai has realized that the old man seems to regard himself as another person, although gentle, but this tenderness, the overflowing love is not really to himself, but only to look at others through himself.

But she didn't care, or deliberately ignored it.

She fell, and completely gave up resistance, just for the voice she heard when she was dying, "Girl, don't be afraid"......

When the old man is fine, he always likes to play with a hairpin, which seems to have been crushed by something, not only is it twisted and deformed, but the rhinestones inlaid on it have also fallen off a lot, and it looks very ugly.

It's such a hairpin that almost even Alai can't look at, but the old man cherishes it very much, every time he holds it in the palm of his hand, it seems to be holding a treasure like no other in the world, and his eyes are full of nostalgia and pity when he looks at the hairpin.

As the days passed, the hairpin gradually occupied Alai's heart, and she finally couldn't help but ask about the hairpin.

The old man hesitated again and again, and finally told the origin of the card and why he was so down.

He had a daughter who lived with her grandson after the divorce, and the daughter went out shopping with her grandson who was less than a year old a year ago, but was hit by a car on the way back, and the little grandson died on the spot, and the daughter also died after being sent to the hospital for rescue.

The devastated old man was determined to get an explanation, but the development of things suddenly took a sharp turn: several eyewitnesses who originally testified to him that the vehicle involved in the accident had retracted their confessions one after another, and the surveillance video as evidence was pointed out by the opposing lawyer that it was forged, and finally the judge actually announced that it was the old man's daughter who ran the red light!

In this way, the original defendant swaggered out after paying enough bail!

Not only that, but he even deliberately went to the old man's house to demonstrate......

At this, the old man trembled all over, and muddy tears rolled out of his two dry and sunken eyes.

Almost overnight, the so-called fairness and justice he had always believed in collapsed and came to naught, and he angrily wanted to ask for an explanation but found that he could not do anything......

The two of them stared at the flickering candlelight for a moment, and Alai suddenly said that she could solve the problem for him.

The old man was startled, and was stunned for a moment before realizing what she meant.

……

At the end of the film, the old man completely collapsed due to the double collapse of his body and mind, and finally died on another rainy evening.

Alai dug a pit for him on the hillside at night, and sat on his knees all night, as usual.

The next morning, she left, leaving a place she had never thought she would leave.

As she walked, she carried a worn-out backpack with a sharp blade peeking out of the gaps in the threads......

Perhaps for the old man, Alai is just a little solace in despair, but for Alai, he is the irreplaceable warmth of his life. And for this warmth, she is willing to exchange her life.

The film does not have a real ending, but everyone can imagine that Alai, who is alone, will not have a good ending even if he avenges the old man, and it may even be worse.

If you look at it purely from the audience's point of view, the movie "Alai" can be said to be a bit headless and unintelligible, and there are a lot of abstract shooting and interpretation methods in between, which makes it difficult for people to keep up with the thinking jumps of directors and screenwriters. Coupled with the gray tones and depressive content from beginning to end, once the films launched in the same period have funny or bloody vulgar films, the box office is really not optimistic.

But Du Yun was confident throughout, in his own words, "The Linde jury liked the tone." ”

What's more, he didn't choose to shoot this in the first place for the box office and money, as long as he could vote for the appetite of those who control the ownership of the trophy.

When he heard Du Yun say "finished" in person, Song Yan not only did not look forward to the relaxation he expected, but felt as if a piece of lead had fallen in his stomach, bitter and heavy.

At the finale banquet, she tasted like chewing wax, looking absent-minded, so that people around her kept coming to ask her if she was uncomfortable.

After the meal, Du Yun personally found her, patted her on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Song Yan, it's over, you have to know that Alai is just a fictional character, you have to come out as much as possible." ”

Song Yan smiled bitterly and nodded, "Thank you, I know." ”

It's easy to say, but it's too hard to do.

It's been a few years since she was officially filming, but there has never been a character who attracts her like Alai, and even sometimes, Song Yan feels that she is Alai!

She was used to wearing rough old clothes, to walking with her head bowed and her eyes cloudy, and even to curling up in the corner with her knees huddled in a daze......

In fact, she doesn't need Du Yun to remind her, she knows that this situation is very dangerous, and if it is not handled well, it will not only affect her next work, but also have a great possibility of affecting her normal life.

As an agent, you have to think about what the artist thinks and what the artist is anxious about. Without waiting for Song Yan's request, Lu Qingyun picked a suitable opportunity and asked, "Do you need psychological counseling?" ”

Because of the many acting schools of its artists, Qi Huang's various follow-up work is also very perfect, not only including diet conditioning and body recovery, but also psychological counseling that can help artists quickly get out of the shadow of the role.

Song Yan hesitated, but finally nodded.

As a result, Xiao Jingyuan called half an hour later, and after a little condolence, he said, "Psychological counseling can be done, but don't rely too much, in this way, I have arranged the counselor for you, and you can talk to her a few times appropriately." Isn't Chu Youyuan here, I'll give you two a few days off, go out and relax, have a meal, go shopping or something, and then shoot a chocolate commercial together and everything. ”

Psychological counseling does work, and it is more scientific, but that thing also has to be moderate, once addicted, it is not good. Especially for a little girl like Song Yan who has a genuine boyfriend and has a stable relationship, rationality can take a back seat, and no treatment can compare to the warmth of love!

Song Yan was grateful for his meticulousness, and only after thanking him did he ask, "Has the chocolate advertisement been negotiated?" ”

Didn't I hear that the negotiations between the two sides on the geographical scope of endorsements have reached an impasse?

Xiao Jingyuan said proudly, "It's all talked, and the official shooting will be made in ten days, which just leaves you plenty of buffer time." The scope of endorsement is Asia, but the endorsement time has changed, originally two years, but now it has become one year. ”

Song Yan nodded after hearing this, "This is understandable, after all, the cost and risk of advertising are very large, and people have to look at the effect." ”

Xiao Jingyuan smiled, "You don't have to speak for them, according to me, maybe they will be the ones who will cry when the time comes!" ”

In the final analysis, it is still this chocolate company's dead duck's hard mouth and can't recognize the shape clearly, at first he said it to death, but now he has a swollen face and refuses to admit defeat.

You don't see Song Yan and Chu Youyuan's good films, one after another, only if they want to shoot or not, there is no filming, and if it goes down for another year, maybe there will be another honor, and then the endorsement fee will not be the current number!

It's just that, they love to be strong, Xiao Jingyuan wishes that his artists could make more money, anyway, they are all doing the same job......

Xiao Jingyuan babbled a lot of instructions, and didn't remember until he was about to hang up the phone, "By the way, there is another thing, there is a new film contract, and the director found me directly." ”

To be honest, Song Yan hasn't stepped out of Alai's shadow at this time, and he wants to transfer his annual leave to rest for a while, but he really doesn't want to devote himself to the next period of work immediately. But listening to Xiao Jingyuan's tone, she was quite interested, and she didn't want to say it to death now.

And she will go back to Yantai City tomorrow, and she will be able to see Xiao Jingyuan the day after tomorrow at the latest, what can't she wait for that time? It is really not his style to be so eager to talk about business on the phone.

But Xiao Jingyuan's next words made Song Yan instantly understand where this impatience came from:

"It's a criminal investigation movie with two heroines, I want to invite Wen Tang out of the mountain, and we've already helped you grab another role."

Wen Tang?!

Forgive Song Yan As soon as he thought of this name, the Big Mac Sauce Meat Pizza of the day immediately appeared in his mind, followed by the golden aura......

Xiao Jingyuan was still over there and asked knowingly, "Are you interested?" ”

"Yes!"

Xiao Jingyuan couldn't hide his smug laughter a few times, and said very understandingly, "Don't worry, the company won't be so ruthless, this movie is still in preparation, it is next year's Chinese New Year, even if it is officially launched, it will take a few months, enough for you to rest." ”

The most worrying problem was solved, Song Yan also breathed a sigh of relief, his mood unconsciously relaxed, and even made a joke very naturally, "Look at what I said, if it is really Sister Wen to join, I will fight if I start the machine immediately tomorrow!" ”

Are you kidding, it's a good thing to be the starring role with Wen Tang, and she has to die on the set even if she dies!

However, Song Yan keenly grasped the words in Xiao Jingyuan's words, "Brother Xiao, you just said that you wanted to invite Sister Wen to join, is that reliable, will Sister Wen really join?" I'm not going to have a good time, am I? ”

On a few fingers, Wen Tang has not taken on domestic films for nearly four years. First, her coffee position is too big, and most domestic movies can't afford it at all, and you can't afford it; Second, there is indeed no script that meets her positioning, so Song Yan's worries are not unreasonable.

But from another point of view, if this drama really plans to invite Wen Tang to be one of the female leads, even if it fails in the end, just letting this gimmick out can attract a lot of fans.

Xiao Jingyuan smashed his mouth, "Although the final result has not yet been determined, I asked Brother Yan on the side, and it is estimated that it is eight / nine is not far from ten." ”

Yan Chen is Feng Lu's husband, and Feng Lu is Wen Tang's most ironclad close friend and business partner, as long as it is the meaning revealed over there, it is estimated that it is really about the same.
