191: Memories of the past
After returning home, Andy opened the script and read it carefully.
After reading the first page, Andy fell into it.
It wasn't until late at night that Andy finished reading the entire script.
has been filming a TV series in Xiangjiang for ten years, and this is the first time he has seen such a complete script.
It's not a storyboard script, but the whole story, from front to back, clear.
The first page of the script tells an overview of the whole story. The second page is about the character's identity, personality, and background.
From the third page onwards, it's the real plot.
has been filming for ten years, although Andy has never played the leading role, he has also read the script of the protagonist.
In Xiangjiang, it is impossible to get such a complete script. Filming and writing now, it is destined that the script that the actor gets in his hand is just a sketch, and everything still has to be under the command of the director.
"I want to swap with him!" Andy muttered in a low voice.
But he shook his head sarcastically, it was impossible.
If Andy still thought that this script was tailor-made for Tony Leung before he read the script, then now, Andy has completely put this idea aside.
His role, as well as Liang Chaowei's role, seems to have deliberately increased the characteristics of the two of them.
The feeling of this script to Andy is that it is not deliberately written for a certain person, but a group of people together, and then synthesizes the characteristics of each person, and then writes this script.
Andy took out his mobile phone, flipped out the number he hadn't dialed for eight years, and pressed the call button again......
Eight years ago......
Beachside ......
"Thank you for coming with me." Liang Chaowei who drank a few bottles of beer. said to Andy and Mary beside him. When looking at Mary, Liang Chaowei was a little unnatural, and his eyes quickly shifted to other places.
"Good brother. Something happened to you, and of course we can't leave it alone. Andy patted Liang Chaowei's shoulder very righteously.
Mary watched the two of them silently, silent.
"It's better for you to stay away from me in the future, those people are very fierce, I don't want to bother you." Liang Chaowei continued.
"Stinky boy, you offended those people, and it has nothing to do with the two of us. If you want to find trouble, you will also be looking for you. Andy said.
"No, although I don't have any skills, I dare to do it."
"Those people have harassed your friends and are afraid to come to see me. If I'm gone, they'll catch you. Liang Chaowei looked at the sea and said helplessly.
Liang Chaowei, Andy, and Mary, the three are classmates in the same class of TVB.
The three of them entered the class together. Graduate together. has been entering the development of TVB.
When his career was just starting, Andy's road was much easier than that of Tony Leung. Before this happened, Andy had already gotten the second lead role in a TV series.
And Mary is not bad, she was the female number three as soon as she debuted, but she failed to get the role of the female number two for a long time.
The worst mixed is Liang Chaowei, who was also the third male when he first debuted, and he has been mixed for two years.
Now a director finally took a fancy to him and wanted him to play the male lead.
The result is at this juncture. Liang Chaowei was tricked and owed a huge debt in a daze. In addition, people have been left with IOUs, and even if they fight a lawsuit, they can't win.
It's fine if it's an ordinary person, but it's a pity that the person who set him up is a gang.
Recently, these people have been pressing a little tightly, and even their friends who are close to Liang Chaowei on weekdays have been harassed by them.
Tonight, Liang Chaowei tried to send messages to his friends who usually have a good relationship, but only these two best friends responded to him.
But in fact, he hadn't had much contact with Mary before.
Mary is Andy's girlfriend, and as a result, they get closer and closer, and the three become best friends.
"Okay, I have 200,000 here, Mary has more than 100,000 there, you take it and return it to them tomorrow, and I'll borrow the rest from the company." Speaking of this, Andy stood up and patted Liang Chaowei on the shoulder, and continued: "It's not early, let's go back." ”
proposed to leave because Andy didn't want Tony Leung to refuse his kindness.
He and Mary combined are only more than 300,000, which is not worth mentioning at all for the three million that Liang Chaowei owes.
But the crux of the matter now is not whether there is enough money, but whether there is the determination to pay it back.
Andy did this because he wanted to use the money to stabilize the gang first, so that they would be willing to give them more time to exchange money, and not to harass Leung Chaowei's friends all the time.
Andy was just about to leave, Leung Chaowei grabbed Andy's hand, shook his head and said, "Why don't you understand?" The purpose of these people is not to take three million from me. ”
"How can we newcomers have so much money in their hands? They wanted to control me and let me make money for them. ”
"This money can't be repaid, you and Mary don't care anymore, I'm afraid I'll implicate you too."
In fact, when he knew about this, Liang Chaowei understood the other party's intentions.
Three million, that's a lot of money, but it's nothing to the gang.
To be precise, three million is a number they calculated based on Liang Chaowei's current worth, as well as other factors.
This figure is very realistic, and no one will doubt anything.
What they are doing now is to persecute Liang Chaowei. Start with the friends around him, intimidate, threaten, do everything.
The purpose is to scare these friends away, keep them away from Liang Chaowei, make him feel lonely, and thus collapse the whole person.
If Liang Chaowei promised them, everything would be fine.
Not only will they not trouble Liang Chaowei again in the future, but even within their capabilities, they will also provide some help.
But in this way, Liang Chaowei has become a complete puppet.
But if you don't agree, you will have a huge amount of arrears. Plus the video in their hands.
These charges are enough to sentence you to more than 10 years. An actor, once provoked by these. It's ruined for a lifetime.
He didn't want Andy to be involved, so if Andy didn't come today, they wouldn't have any contact in the future. If it comes, it says everything, and there will be no more contact in the future.
It's just that with the appearance of Mary, Liang Chaowei can't explain things clearly.
Moreover. Some things are not clear.
In the next few days, Liang Chaowei disappeared completely, and no one knew where he went.
Accidentally. Occurs early one morning.
Andy couldn't contact Mary for a few days, so on the day off, Andy went to Mary's house early in the morning to check.
But the moment he opened the door, the whole person was stunned.
Mary is dead. He was tied with a special rope. Naked. The scattered clothes indicate that before the incident, something happened here that Andy could not accept.
A week later, through a large number of visits and investigations, the police watched closed-circuit television and successfully cracked the Qiang and Jian murder case.
And those murderers are those who threaten Liang Chaowei.
I don't know if it's a coincidence, or if it's a predestined result. The boss of the gang. He also appeared at the scene that night and was identified by his younger brother.
The end result is: Mary died, the gang was wiped out by the police, and Liang Chaowei's matter was resolved.
While packing up his belongings, Andy found a video in Mary's clothes.
And what really made him break with Liang Chaowei was this video.
Afterwards, Leung Chaowei once approached Andy and wanted to explain the matter, but Andy did not give him this opportunity.
Now that it has happened, the person is no longer there. Andy didn't want to chase anything anymore, but Andy, who was once a good brother, didn't want to see him either.
Since then, Andy's energy has been fully devoted to his work.
But it backfired, Andy, who worked wholeheartedly, did not develop smoothly in his career.
After playing a male number two, Andy has never been able to go further, and has been wandering in the male number two.
But Liang Chaowei is becoming more and more popular, not only renewing the contract with the company, but also receiving a job in the film.
Two years later, Liang Chaowei suddenly broke with the company and directly boycotted the auction in a high-profile manner.
Before the company decided to sue Liang Chaowei, Liang Chaowei's current company stood up and paid a huge termination fee, Liang Chaowei left TVB and officially entered the film industry.
After Leung Chaowei left TVB, Andy never played the second male lead in any drama, and occasionally played the third male lead, but most of the time he was doing miscellaneous work.
Later, the company also had some rumors, saying that the important reason for the break between Leung Chaowei and TVB seems to be in Andy.
After Leung Chaowei left, Andy's career declined sharply, and there was no improvement.
Under normal circumstances, TVB's signed artists are all starring actors, and occasionally make a cameo appearance as the second male lead.
Only those who have just graduated will start with the male number three. If it goes well, one or two TV series will be able to do No. 1. If it doesn't go well, you can almost get the second number after a year or two.
Andy also had doubts, but he didn't dig deeper, he always felt that he couldn't mix up because his acting skills were not good enough and he hadn't been appreciated by the company.
The script in his hand reminded Andy of the incident eight years ago.
Undoubtedly, the impact of this incident on Andy is huge, and it has also brought infinite pain to Andy.
He didn't want to recall it because he didn't believe it all.
Quietly wiping away his tears, Andy pressed the call button.
A few seconds later, the call was answered, but no one spoke.
"Do you have time?"
"I'm downstairs at your house." On the phone, Liang Chaowei said.
Andy was stunned, and then ran to the window, and sure enough, a car was standing there, and Liang Chaowei looked up at himself by the car.
How did he end up here? Andy couldn't help but wonder. Is it a coincidence? When he first tried to find him, he was downstairs.
Or did Wang Luo already look for him and tell him about the movie, so he came here to wait?
"Let's talk!" (To be continued......)
