Chapter XVIII Days Associated with Youth

Narrow alleys, dilapidated walls, and broken bricks scattered everywhere.

Beneath your feet is a loess road that had rained heavily not long ago and is now exposed to the sun, as if it had been cursed by nature.

In the change of dampness and dryness, the loess formed a mass of mud. After being crushed by the weight of the human body, the mud instantly turned into powder, raising a layer of misty dust.

When the dust settled, a group of young people squatting at the mouth of the alley were revealed.

Here are seven or eight young men, both male and female. Both men and women, they all wore uniform olive green military uniforms, and their faces were full of rebelliousness. Unfortunately, their uniforms were indecent, short and generous, which made their arrogance look ridiculous.

Their expressions were impatient, as if they were waiting for something.

Soon, another wave of young people dressed in the same costume appeared. They came from a distance and finally stood in front of the first wave of youth.

Without too many words, the two groups of people exchanged faces, and in the blink of an eye, they fought together. The boys were armed with broken bricks, steel-tipped belts, and broken table legs, and they played with their weapons one by one.

The girls did not back down, and when they raised a handful of sand, they dared to rush over and scratch the faces of the enemy on the opposite side. They are not cheerleaders, this kind of girl is called Sa Mi in Beijing, honey is to describe the girl as good-looking, and Sa is a heroic and sassy one.

Trust me, that's definitely a compliment!

Of course, the scene in front of me is not a group fight, but a TV film.

More than 30 years ago, in a certain alley in the capital, exactly the same picture happened.

Of course, the two groups of people in the picture are actually not bad people, and there are no great contradictions. At the end of the day, they were just doing things that were in line with that era, things that everyone would do at that time.

More than 30 years have passed, and what was once a youth has become a middle-aged person. One of them is middle-aged and has written this memory into a novel, and another is making it into a TV. There will be a middle-aged man in the future who will change him into a movie of old guns.

It's not a story, it's not a novel, it's not a TV series, it's a period of youth. It's Wang Shuo, it's Feng Xiaogang, it's Ye Jing, it's a lot of people, and their days related to youth......

While everyone was fighting together, Liu Ra hid at the rear, constantly throwing broken stones and throwing them into the crowd. Sometimes it hits the enemy, but sometimes it also hits your own people.

Feng Pants, played by Liu La, is younger than everyone in the play, only seventeen or eighteen years old. Therefore, when he encountered this kind of scene, he did not dare to rush forward, but he longed to fight in his heart, so he had to choose to participate in this way.

At that time, the people of the capital were still fighting fiercely, unlike most of the time now, they only talk about it.

Shi Meng went to the meeting with a mace in both hands. The recalcitrant axes the little bastards to death. The two children of the dean of a certain university drew lots at the prime minister's house to decide whether one would live or die and the other die simply because of the trumped-up crime of hooliganism. The students of Qinghuayuan even made their own bazookas to confront the Red Guards. Mongolian students at Jingcheng University also took advantage of the night to plaster big-character posters all over the Central-South China Sea.

These are all real things that happened in that era, and they are all things that we listened to as stories when we were children. At that time, people were full of battles, and even put life and death and interests aside, otherwise they would not have led to several severe beatings later.

……

Back to the topic, when Liu La picked up the stone again and was about to throw it out, suddenly, Ye Jing stopped.

"Stop, everybody stop." As he spoke, in the puzzled eyes of everyone, he walked to Liu La's side and looked at Liu La with a frown: "You stretch out your hand." ”

Liu La couldn't figure out what was going on, so she obediently stretched out her hand.

Ye Jing's brows furrowed even deeper: "Your hand is too good-looking." ”

Liu La rolled her eyes and said in her heart, "Then it's my fault." ”

Liu La's hands are indeed beautiful, with well-proportioned bones, firm skin, and slender and powerful fingers. It's not like a stone-throwing hand in the street, this hand is supposed to play the piano and hold a wine glass.

"Makeup artist, hurry up and draw for him, it's a little more ordinary and a little dirty." Ye Jing called the crew and asked them to come over and get Liu La's hands.

However, just after shouting, he repented again: "Forget it, I don't need you." Spicy, you find a place to smear some yellow mud on your hands, so that it looks more natural. ”

Liu La has nothing to say, the director will do whatever he asks, and this bit of professionalism is still there.

He took a bottle of mineral water, reached to the ground, and reached over to mix it. By the time the palm of the hand was withdrawn, it had become very dirty, and the fingers were stuffed with yellow mud, which really looked more in line with the image.

"Okay, all departments are ready, let's start filming this again. 321action……”

With Ye Jing's order, the interrupted shooting restarted. This time the process was relatively smooth, there was no business trip during the period, and it was completed quickly......

After leaving Lao Mo's restaurant that day, he didn't let Liu Sa wait too long, and he received a call from the crew producer that night.

On the phone, Liu La talked to the producer about the contract. On the one hand, he was instructed by the director, and the price given was quite reasonable. One side didn't care much about the money itself, and thought it was almost fine, so the two sides quickly reached an agreement. Each episode of the TV series is 1,600 yuan, and it is expected to shoot about 50 levels.

Those years were not like now, Liu La was a newcomer, although 1600 was not much, but it was not a bully. If this is put on hold until now, an important role in a TV series, regardless of whether you are a newcomer or not, if you don't have 20,000 yuan for an episode, people will ignore you, and you will feel ashamed to say it.

After negotiating the contract, the next morning, Liu La went over early to sign the contract.

At noon on the day after signing the contract, he received a call from Ye Jing. "Spicy, hurry up and prepare, wait at Lao Mo's restaurant at two o'clock in the afternoon, our crew has officially gathered, and the first stop is to go to the field."

"Cheng, I'll be on time." Liu La did not hesitate and agreed.

He didn't have anything to prepare, so he casually packed a few changes of clothes, called his parents to inform him, and said goodbye to his master and sister, and his brothers and sisters one by one. In the end, with the entrustment of his parents and the 5,000 yuan that his sister forced over, Liu La rushed to Lao Moxi's restaurant.

Liu La came early, he is a very punctual person, and he thinks that it is better to arrive early than late. When he came, no one else came, and he waited about 20 minutes before the other actors appeared one after another.

The last person to arrive was Ye Jing.

Ye Jing rented a big bus carrying the crew, and the bus went straight to the Jingkai Expressway.

Because it is a period drama, it will be filmed in two locations. One is naturally in the capital. The other needs to find a place similar to the capital 30 years ago. After all, the development of a metropolis like Beijing is changing with each passing day, and it has been so many years that it is impossible to find the environment of 30 years ago in the capital.

I don't know who recommended it, but in the end, the crew chose Hebei Province, a relatively remote county. The development here is relatively slow, like the appearance of the capital 30 years ago, as soon as he saw the photos here, Ye Jing immediately decided, no matter what, it is it.

It is about more than 300 less than 400 kilometers away from the capital, and it departed at more than two o'clock in the afternoon, and after more than five hours, at more than seven o'clock, the bus drove into this small county town weathered by time.

The staff who arrived early had already rented a room for everyone and prepared the meal.

The food and accommodation are the only hotel in the small county, and the crew rented out the entire hotel. There are less than 10 rooms here, and there is one room for every three people, including directors and actors, and one room for two girls.

Liu La, Chen Yufan, and Wen Zhang were assigned to the same room. After sitting in the car for an afternoon, because the road conditions were not very good, the car was always bumpy, and several people were about to fall apart, and they were all too tired.

After hurriedly eating a few bites of food, another bottle of liquor was dried, and everyone lay down in bed early to rest.

I slept until 10 o'clock in the first afternoon of the next day, and everyone woke up one after another. After waking up, after freshening up and dressing up, everyone followed the crew to an alley in a small county town, and then, there was the scene of the group fight at the beginning of the previous article......
