98. Chapter 98
After taking the time to shoot commercials and posters for DK, Song Yan, who returned to the crew, saw a strange old man at a glance, Li Chunlai!
When she arrived, it happened to be a meal, and a group of people in the crew were sitting around the dining table waiting for food, and many people seized this rare leisure time to talk about the mountains, so the old man's hard reading appearance was particularly conspicuous.
A few sharp-eyed people saw her come in and hurriedly greeted, "Ah, Song Yan is back, have you eaten?" ”
Song Yan smiled and said, "Not yet." ”
Du Yun nodded, "Just eat a bit, by the way, Teacher Li is here, you haven't seen it yet, right?" ”
Someone had already helped with a new pair of chopsticks while talking, Song Yan went to sit down there, and took the initiative to greet Li Chunlai, who was looking up at this side, "Hello Mr. Li, I'm Song Yan, I'm really sorry I didn't pay you the first time." ”
Li Chunlai has been really unhappy for most of his life, he was not popular when he should have been popular, and he missed the best years when he was really popular. However, this person has a very good mentality, always not impatient, and not alarmed, and that kind of bearing is really admirable.
The old man arrived yesterday, and he didn't have any nanny car or special car treatment, so he took a taxi directly with his baggage. After arriving, I walked all the way with a magnifying glass in my left hand and a map in my right hand, and asked all the way, but I was almost turned away by the security guard who didn't know Taishan......
At this time, he was wearing small glasses to study the lines, and when he heard someone talking to him, he took off his glasses first, and then squinted his eyes and looked at them for a long time before he got up and shook hands with a smile, "Hey, what are you talking about, I'm not a corner, just see you today." ”
After speaking, he said, "Miss Song, can you help me sign later?" ”
Du Yun laughed beside him, "Old Li, you also chase stars?" ”
"Then the designation is chasing," the old man said solemnly, "but I'm such a bad old man, and I don't like to take someone's little girl's signature, just take a photo later." This is my little granddaughter's, she likes Miss Song, knows that I have the honor to come to film, how many times a day let me bring her an autograph. ”
Song Yan hurriedly said that he didn't dare, and after signing his name, he took the initiative to take a photo with the old man.
It's not that it's flattery or any other careful thinking, but Song Yan really admires Li Chunlai's personality. If it was her, I was really not sure if I could persist for decades without changing my original intention.
The old man has very strict presbyopia, and he usually wears glasses when he reads the script, and then when he turns his head to talk to people, he is reluctant to look at people from the glasses out of respect, so he has to take them off again, and then wear them again when he reads......
Speaking of which, Li Chunlai's lines are not too many, but he is old, his memory is not good, and it is particularly difficult to memorize things.
Just put it on, took it off, and after two days of contact, Song Yan looked tired and panicked for him, so he persuaded, "Just wear it, otherwise it will be more troublesome." ”
"That's not going to be done, that's not going to happen," but the old man still waved his hand very insistently, and took off his glasses again as he spoke, "It's okay, I won't wear glasses when Ming'er officially starts filming, I came here to take a magnifying glass this time." ”
After speaking, he closed his eyes and recited silently a few times, and after finishing it, he let out a long sigh and began to recite it for the umpteenth time, "Alas, I am useless when I am old, I think I could memorize so many pages in one breath." ”
*************
That day, Alley returned from a trip to the hillside, and found a bad old man in the grass around the corner.
She subconsciously stopped, stared at the dying old face for a few seconds, and then raised her feet and left.
In this kind of lawless realm, useless people can only wait for death, she has seen too many such things, and she has long been used to it.
At least that's what she thinks herself.
But when there was a faint sound behind him, Alai couldn't help but stop, and at the same time, the old and dirty face he had just seen unconsciously appeared in his mind.
Well, she remembered the old man who raised her.
Li Chunlai's body is already thin, but in order to better show the desolation and desolation of the character, he took the initiative to lose five pounds of weight after receiving the script, and it was really desolate to look at it coldly.
He has no lines in the first three scenes, and he completely relies on body language and eyes to express the psychological changes of the characters, and his requirements for acting skills are not high.
"Shhhh
After returning from his pocket, Alai took out a plastic bag with residual warmth in his pocket, which contained two large white and fat buns. It was meant to be reserved for dinner, but who would have thought that an old man who looked like he was about to die would pop up out of thin air?
The old man's nose moved slightly, and then his eyelids opened a slit with difficulty, revealing the cloudy old eyes inside.
He seemed to be very weak, and half-lay on the ground for a long time before he could barely focus his eyes on the little girl in front of him, who was not much neater than himself.
The moment the eyes of the two wanted to meet, Song Yan was shocked, and then involuntarily became uncomfortable.
That look is too complicated, it contains too many heavy feelings and unconcealed despair and sadness, and it firmly controls you almost instantly.
At this time, the camera was taking a close-up of Li Chunlai, in fact, it didn't matter if Song Yan squatted next to her and laughed, but she still felt that it was inappropriate, and when it was her turn in a few seconds, she took the initiative to apologize for the first time.
"I'm sorry for my mistake, can I do it again?"
It has been six or seven years since he was officially electrocuted, and for the first time, Song Yan was taken away by others. It was also the first time that she was so deeply aware of the shortcomings of her acting skills.
wants to become a genuine acting school, she is really tender.
After finishing work that day, Song Yan knocked on Li Chunlai's door with his notebook, and then said very sincerely, "Old Li, can you help me watch the play?" ”
Li Chunlai, who hadn't had time to take off his reading glasses, was stunned for a moment, and waved his hand again and again, "This is not good, this is not good, it is too serious." ”
Song Yan was not discouraged because of a failure, and immediately changed his words, "Then I don't understand some things, you are an old-timer, can you please help me palm my eyes?" ”
"Hehehe," Li Chunlai looked at her for a while, then suddenly smiled, and said while wiping his glasses, "Nacheng, it just so happens that I haven't made a movie for two years, let's play against each other." ”
After a long period of contact, Song Yan also vaguely realized that the reason why Li Chunlai was tepid for most of his life was that he was unlucky, of course, the most important thing was that he was unlucky, but it was inseparable from his too cautious and stable character.
This old man looks quite amiable and approachable, but in fact, he is cautious, and he will not mix anything if he can, let alone intrigue and trick his heart.
He is a man who is very content, and he is also very good at being at peace with what happens. Hey, if you find me, then I'll pick it up if I see it, and if I can't find me, I won't go up and down the road to take the relationship activities......
As for the role of "Alai", a friend of Du Yun's father recommended Li Chunlai to this side when he heard the news, and Du Yun saw that this old man's acting skills were good, so he responded with the boat.
If it weren't for that, it is estimated that Du Yun would not be able to think of such a translucent person.
How cruel modern society is, especially in the entertainment industry, whoever is popular will respect and value whom, and what is seniority will lag behind.
Li Chunlai's position in the circle is really embarrassing, he came alone, there are no assistants or agents, and dozens of people in the crew are basically wearing many hats, and it is really easy for him to forget when he is busy, sometimes the supporting roles of those supporting roles are finished with makeup, and no one remembers that there is an old man drying outside......
Song Yan had the heart to learn from him, and he also felt that the old man was very desolate when he was old, but it was too obvious that he was not suitable to show favor, but he also took him with him from time to time, such as makeup, eating, changing clothes, etc.
Although Li Chunlai is not very rare, he is not the kind of stupid and unconscionable, and he became close to Song Yan after a few times, and occasionally told her a few tips that he had summarized for most of his life.
For this, Du Yun said when chatting with Song Yan in private, "It's really yours, this Teacher Li is a well-known maverick, looking at the hot face is actually cold, you are a young and beautiful girl who can really talk to him." ”
Song Yan feels that he likes to talk to these old-timers, just like Wang Xiuli before, and like Li Chunlai now.
is mainly able to mix in the entertainment industry until a handful of years old and still stand, regardless of whether it is popular or not, it is basically the same as a human spirit, those lessons and tricks, where do you inadvertently leak a sentence and a half can make you use it for life, and you can't suffer a loss by talking to them.
And the key point is that at their age, there is basically no utilitarianism, and they talk and do things in one and two in two, and there are not so many moths.
It can be seen from refusing to attend the cocktail party and the like that Song Yan herself is not the kind of girl who is good at drilling, unless necessary, she really doesn't want to talk around the bush and is tired. And when you talk to these old-timers, you don't have these worries, you don't have to play tricks with them at all, and you don't have this kind of idea directly, how comfortable!
************8
July 13th is the Peony Film Festival in China, and the Pegasus Film Festival in October.
However, it is a pity this year that Song Yan, who devoted almost the previous year to the TV series "The Big Family", did not have any film works to participate in the competition, so there is no need to be distracted.
It's Chu Youyuan, he has a film as the second male lead shortlisted, the momentum is good, the Peony Award has been shortlisted for Best Supporting Actor, and it is estimated that the Pegasus Award can also be shortlisted.
His filming abroad was over, and he stayed there to take a set of photos, and only returned on a night flight after an exclusive interview.
It was already more than three o'clock in the morning when he landed, and Chu Youyuan didn't expect that there were still many people waiting at the airport holding his avatar signs.
After wandering abroad for half a year, he received this kind of supreme treatment as soon as he returned to China, and he was a big man with tears in his eyes.
After all, there were fewer people at the airport in the early morning, and Chu Youyuan had not appeared in China for a long time, so he urgently needed to brush up on his feelings, Pei Ran did not greet the guards to guard them strictly, but let him interact with the fans.
The most surprising thing for Chu Youyuan was that there was an aunt in her fifties among the crowd who came to pick up the airport!
If it weren't for the fact that she was holding her avatar card in her hand, and after looking at herself, she was dancing excitedly and her face was flushed, Chu Youyuan would have wondered which program team had arranged a prank.
"Hello Auntie," he took the initiative to shake Auntie's hand and asked, "Are you here to pick up someone?" ”
"Yes, yes, I'm here to pick you up!" The aunt was so excited that she grabbed his hand and didn't let go, and her wrinkled eyes were shining, "I'm here with my daughter!" ”
Chu Youyuan looked in the direction of her finger and saw a young girl in her twenties holding a camera to shoot at him.
He laughed out loud directly, feeling that the fatigue of flying for more than ten hours disappeared, and he waved his hand at the camera in a good mood, "Hi." ”
The girl was stunned, her hand holding the camera trembled, and then the mother and son hugged each other with all kinds of excitement.
Chu Youyuan was so happy that he took the initiative to ask, "Let's take a group photo together, right?" ”
Hearing him say this, the aunt looked like she was about to faint happily.
After taking the photo, Chu Youyuan was not at ease after all, and asked, "How did you get here?" It's not good to be like this in the future, so you have to pay attention to safety. ”
The aunt immediately said categorically, "Safe and secure, our family is here." ”
Chu Youyuan took a look, okay, there was still a helpless uncle standing on the periphery of the fandom.
He smiled and bowed slightly to the other party, "Thank you for your hard work, please pay attention to safety on the way back." ”
The old uncle didn't expect him to have such a low profile, but he was also a little embarrassed, and coughed dryly in embarrassment, and said, "It's okay, our family came to travel, and we originally planned to wait for a while to see the sunrise, by the way, by the way." ”
After satisfying the wishes of dozens of fans to sign autographs and take group photos, Chu Youyuan got into the car home with full blessings and gifts.
Until the car drove out of the parking lot, he could still see the fans chasing this way in the night.
Seeing this scene, Pei Ran couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "It's better to be at home." ”
Chu Youyuan looked down at the various gifts in his arms, and nodded with a chuckle, "Well, it's good at home." ”
