Chapter 12: I Swear
Almost at the same time as the press conference, in a city, Cheng Peng walked into a ward of the city hospital with a bag on his back.
In the room, the mother was lying on the bed, with gray hair and an old face, and her sister Cheng Li was sitting on a chair and talking softly to her.
When her mother was young, she was a famous beauty in this area, but after her father died, in order to pull Cheng Peng and her sister, her mother aged quickly, and her weathered face was quickly wrinkled because of the hardships of life.
I haven't seen each other for two years, and the wrinkles on my mother's face have increased a lot! Looking at his mother's old appearance, Cheng Peng's heart was sour, and he walked over and shouted in a trembling voice: "Mom! ”
Mother was stunned when she saw Cheng Peng, tears were rolling in her eyes, but she still had a straight face, and asked in a very stern tone: "Why are you back, aren't you acting?" ”
Cheng Peng sat down next to his mother and said with a smile: "Acting is very important, but my mother is even more important, there are many plays, and there is only one mother!" ”
These words almost made the mother's tears flow out, her face finally couldn't stand anymore, her eyes became gentle, and she sighed: "You child, you are always so disobedient, you have been in the capital for several years, and you finally have such an opportunity, why did you come back?" ”
Cheng Peng knew what his mother was worried about, and explained: "I only have one scene in the beginning, and the main scenes are in the back, and I came back after filming the previous scenes." ”
Hearing Cheng Peng say this, his mother breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, I'm fine, it's just a minor operation, you shouldn't come back!" ”
"It's okay, Mom, I'll go back when you're well, I won't delay filming!"
Cheng Li stood up, patted Cheng Peng's shoulder, and said, "Xiaopeng, you haven't come back for so long, you have a good chat with your mother, there is something going on in the unit, I have to go!" ”
"Go get busy, sister!"
Cheng Peng hasn't been home for more than two years, and he stayed by his mother's side all afternoon, telling her some interesting things in the crew, he can't make his mother younger, but at least he can make her feel better.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, my sister came back, walked to Cheng Peng's side, patted him on the shoulder, made a look, and motioned him to go out with her.
Cheng Peng is a little strange, what can't he say in front of his mother? After walking out of the ward, he asked, "Sister, what's wrong?" ”
Cheng Li stared at Cheng Peng for a few seconds, sighed, and said, "Xiaopeng, I really want to beat you up, how can you let me say that you are good, why are you so impulsive." Okay, why did you beat the director, what can you do if you go on like this? ”
Cheng Peng's face changed, the news spread too fast, yesterday's incident, the elder sister knew today, he realized that something was wrong, and asked in a deep voice: "Sister, how do you know?" ”
Cheng Li didn't speak, took out a newspaper from her bag, and slapped it in Cheng Peng's hand with a "snap".
The newspaper's entertainment book has a large headline that reads "Actor beats director, Hong Jingbao calls for banning", and below is a large photo of Hong Jingbao holding a microphone announcing the ban on Cheng Peng, as well as a photo of Cheng Peng's head.
Cheng Peng's heart sank suddenly, this matter has nothing to do with Hong Jingbao, Hong Jingbao was not in Yangcheng during filming, he didn't expect Hong Jingbao to stand up and call for himself to be blocked, this matter is really troublesome.
However, it is not surprising that Hong Kong and Taiwan artists originally like to hold together, why Huayi is called Taiwanese friendship, because the director Chen Guofu is Taiwanese, so there are many Taiwanese artists who have entered Huayi; Ten years later, when Zhao Wenzhuo and Zeng Zidan were incidental, didn't most of the Xiangjiang artists stand on Zeng Zidan's side?
Li Jiongkai's ban made Cheng Peng not afraid, but Hong Jingbao's influence was too great, and as soon as he stood up, Cheng Peng's road to Yanyi would really be blocked.
Cheng Peng was very unwilling, very angry, his fists couldn't help clenching, the newspapers were torn, and he couldn't wait to catch these two guys and beat them up. Just remembering that his sister was beside him and worried about himself, Cheng Peng took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, raised his head and smiled at her, and said, "Sister, don't worry." It's okay, although Hong Jingbao has a lot of influence, but it is only in Xiangjiang, and I don't plan to develop in Xiangjiang, his ban order has no effect on me. ”
"But you hit people so much, other directors will definitely see it, do they dare to use you?"
"There will be some impact, but not that big, now the news is updated quickly, people forget their surnames quickly, and when the time passes, people will forget."
"Hey, I know your temper, I advise you to ......"
At this moment, a mobile phone rang: "You said you love lilacs the most, because your name is it, what a melancholy flower, sentimental person!" ”
"I'll take the phone." Cheng Li said a word to Cheng Peng, took out her mobile phone from her bag, and walked to the side to answer the phone.
But Cheng Peng stood on the spot as if he had been struck by lightning, and then a somewhat hideous smile slowly appeared on his face, didn't he want to ban me? I will tear through the net you have laid and trample you under your feet, so that you know that I Cheng Peng can't be blocked!
……
Li Jiongkai took a sip of tea from the teacup, leaned back in the chair, and smiled comfortably on his face. Two days have passed since the press conference, and the crew has resumed work, and he is in a very happy mood. Thanks to Cheng Peng's idiot, the crew completed an extremely perfect hype, the movie just started, it attracted so much media attention, and I am afraid that spending millions of publicity dollars may not have this effect!
"You're so poisonous, you're so poisonous......" The ringtone of the mobile phone suddenly rang, and Li Jiongkai didn't look at it, so he connected the phone.
"Director Li, hello, can you hear my voice, I'm Cheng Peng, you must be very proud now, right?" The voice of the phone mileage peng was extremely gloomy, almost like the voice of a ghost in hell.
Li Jiongkai couldn't help but feel excited, his back was cold, like a snake swimming, and he even felt a faint pain in his abdomen, which was the position where he was kicked by Cheng Peng that day. However, after all, he was an old man who had been in the circle for decades, and he immediately calmed down, knowing that Cheng Peng was just calling to vent his anger at being blocked, and said in a calm tone: "Cheng Peng, did you call to admit your mistake?" ”
"You're mistaken, I didn't admit my mistake when I called today, no matter how many times I repeat the situation that day, I will beat you, you slut!"
"Enough! You unrepentant street bastard, you're dead! You've been banned, you can't get along in this circle anymore, you wait and cry! ”
"Block me, hehe! I'm calling to tell you that you don't have that yet! Some people can't be sealed, no matter how thick the net you lay, I will tear it layer by layer and trample you under your feet! ”
Li Jiongkai laughed, looking very hideous: "Don't you dream, trample me under your feet, just rely on your mouth?" Because of you, my movies are getting a lot of attention right now, they're going to be box office hits, and you should never want to step into this circle and wait to rot! ”
Cheng Peng laughed and said, "Movie? That shit thing you made is also called a movie? Do you know how to compose, how to set lighting, and how to move the camera? Don't insult the movie, if that pile of shit you shoot can be called a movie, then everyone can make a movie! ”
"Dead streetstock, as if you know how to make movies, you have the ability to make a movie for me!"
"I will, I'll make movies, make real movies, I'll let the audience know what a good movie is and what shit is! I'm going to snatch all the audience out of you and drive you out of the movie world as a waste that only creates visual garbage! ”
Li Jiongkai laughed out loud, a trickster, a high school graduate actually claimed that he could make movies, this is simply the most ridiculous joke he has ever heard: "Okay, I'm waiting for you, don't let me wait too long, if it's thirty or forty years, I may not be there!" ”
"I don't need thirty or forty years, it only takes three years and I'll let you know what's going on in a real movie, just wait and see!" After saying this, Cheng Peng hung up the phone with a sneer.
These words are not a moment of anger, but the result of deep thought, now that things are so big, Cheng Peng's reputation is stinky in this circle, the road of an actor has really come to an end, and no director is willing to use an actor who does not listen to the director's arrangement and dares to beat the director.
Of course, Cheng Peng has other ways to go, his voice is so good, and there are so many songs from the future, he can mix well in the music world.
But Cheng Peng is really not interested in music, and he is not the kind of person who retreats in the face of difficulties, he is unwilling to quit the film and television industry like this, if you dare to provoke me, then I will repay it a hundred times! So he found another way, other directors don't want to use me, then I'll do it myself, I'll direct and act by myself!
A few days later, his mother was discharged from the hospital, and Cheng Peng was ready to leave for Beijing to tear through the net and break out of a bright sky.
At the airport, Cheng Li took out a passbook and handed it to Cheng Peng: "Xiaopeng, now many people are on Li Jiongkai's side, saying that they want to block you, your future road will be very difficult, there are more than 20,000 yuan in the passbook, you can save at a critical moment, call my sister if you have anything." ”
Where is Cheng Peng willing to take it, and pushed the passbook back: "Sister, how can I ask for your money, don't worry, I have money." ”
Cheng Li grabbed Cheng Peng's hand, slapped the passbook in his hand, and said, "This money is not mine, it is given to you by my mother!" ”
I used to send money late, and my mother would call me and scold me, how could she give me money? Cheng Peng looked at Cheng Li and couldn't believe it: "Sister, is it really my mother who gave it to me?" ”
Cheng Li sighed and said, "Mom didn't let me say it, do you know why Mom asked you to send her money every month?" She didn't want your money, she told me that you are very similar to your father, you are arrogant, you can't save money, and she is worried that you will have nothing in the future. She saved all that money for you, and it was all in this passbook. I don't know where she heard the news of the banning of you, she said, this time you go back to the capital is much more difficult than when you first went, it's time to return the money to you, the password is your life. ”
Cheng Peng opened the passbook tremblingly, looked at the deposit record of 500 yuan per month on the passbook, and suddenly his eyes were confused. Only now did he realize his mother's hard work, he grabbed Cheng Li's hand and said in a crying voice: "Sister, you go back and tell Mom, I won't let her down, I swear!" ”
