Chapter 389: Drifting
In the evening, the capital.
This is a cinema on the top floor of a shopping mall, which has just been built for a year, and all the facilities are considered the top configuration in China. Today is the weekend, and it's a good time for a date, and the movie theater, which is a little deserted on weekdays, is already overcrowded, and the waiting area outside is crowded with dozens of fans.
Instead of sitting, they gathered on both sides of the exit, tiptoeing up one by one, as if waiting for someone. After a while, I saw several security guards coming out of it, clicking open the protective fence and waiting for it.
"It's coming! Here it comes! ”
The crowd suddenly stirred and buzzed.
About five minutes later, as soon as the door of a certain theater opened, seven or eight people came out one after another, and as soon as they appeared, some sharp-eyed ones had already shouted: "Soldiers! Soldiers! ”
"I love you!"
"I love you!"
Immediately, the fans were completely boiling, shouting loudly, and there was a mess of everything.
Over there, Feng Xiaogang took the lead, took Fan Xiaoye, Zhang Guoli and Xu Fan, waved his hand, and walked through the slightly longer passage to the elevator.
The scene was chaotic, with the security guards holding each other's arms and holding their backs against the crazy fans.
It was easy to escape, and a few people went straight into the elevator room before they breathed a sigh of relief.
"The crowd is too enthusiastic, and sometimes it's really not a good thing for artists." Feng Xiaogang immediately began to be poor.
"Oh, you become an artist first!" Zhang Guoli spoke a four* Sichuan dialect and skillfully poured cold water.
"Look at it, Comrade Zhang Guoli belongs to the kind of person who is born with no eyesight, and he is particularly annoyed."
Director Feng grinned his mouth full of rotten teeth, turned to Fan Xiaoye again, and said with a smile: "A soldier is a good comrade, not afraid of hardship or tiredness, although he is beautiful, but the style of hard work of the working people has not been lost at all. ”
"Yo, look at what you said. I'm a bitter kid. "Master Fan is familiar with them, and he has no scruples in his conversation.
"That's it! Besides, working people can't be pretty? Xu Fan put his arm around her and followed to help.
"You understand that there is a deviation, the hearts of the working people are the most beautiful, but ......"
Before Director Feng finished speaking, Zhang Guoli gave a fatal blow: "But most of them are still ugly, such as you!" ”
“……”
Feng Xiaogang glanced left and right, and said in a dumb voice: "If you weren't afraid of falling downstairs, I would wedge you to death with a hammer!" ”
A few people giggled. Soon arrived at the underground parking lot, escorted by security personnel, got into a spacious business car, and went straight to the hotel.
Just yesterday, the box office of "Mobile Phone" finally surpassed "Infernal Affairs 3", and there is still a lot of room for it. As soon as the filmmakers saw it, they were busy launching the second round of publicity plans, today they came to the theater to support the show, and now they are going to participate in the celebration banquet held by Huayi.
It has been said that it has been more than half a year. The crew's impression of Fan Xiaoye has completely changed, young, good-looking, and with high emotional intelligence. The acting skills are good, and what is even more rare is that she is willing to fight.
There are few people in this circle who don't fight. But she's the kind of fight that doesn't want to die, and it's a little scary to look at.
At this time, it is catching up with the evening rush hour. The second ring was blocked like Wang Ba, the business car crawled forward, and a few people looked outside, and the bitterness and hatred of the water were deep.
After the ink was spent for forty minutes, it was considered a point to go out, and the traffic was gradually decreasing, and Brother Xiao Lei seemed to be in a hurry, and suddenly a call came.
"Hey, Zhonglei...... Ah, on the road, we have just broken through and will soon be victorious. ”
Feng Xiaogang crossed his legs, grinning loudly, Xu Fan was next to him, and gently smoothed his clothes. But in the next second, I heard him suddenly raise his voice and say, "What? It's over! Ouch, that's pretty good! Okay, okay, let's talk about it when we meet. ”
"What do you mean?" Xu Fanqi said.
"That book, it's over!"
"Yo, this is a double happiness!"
"No more, I'll just change my career!" He said this, but his expression was obviously happy.
Fan Xiaoye rolled his eyes, and probed from the back seat and said, "Director, you want to start a new play?" ”
"Well, it's still in preparation."
"What is the story you want to tell me?"
Feng Xiaogang glanced at her, and wanted to keep it secret, but they were partners and had an agreement, so he said, "It's just two thieves ......."
As he spoke, the car moved forward, and about twenty minutes later, the group arrived at the door of the hotel.
A few people went up to the hall on the third floor, Fan Xiaoye swept in a circle, and suddenly said, "Hey, I'll go to the bathroom." ”
"You clear your stomach first, then we'll go first." Xu Fan said with a smile.
When they flashed, the girl slipped into the women's toilet, quickly took out her mobile phone, and dialed a number.
"Hey, Sister Xiaoying, you help me check, when will Jia Zhangke's film start? Uh, it's about time, hurry up, I'll wait for your letter! ”
After saying that, she didn't pee, just washed her hands and made up some light makeup.
Cheng Ying's work efficiency is super fierce, and he called back after a while, saying: "He doesn't have any detailed plans, there are rumors above that he wants to lift the ban, so he is waiting for news, it seems that it will be January next year, and then he will take the script to be submitted for review, so he has to start shooting in February or March." ”
"February and March?"
Fan Xiaoye frowned and said, "Okay, I know, you can follow up on this matter again." ”
Immediately, she hung up the phone and couldn't help biting her fingers and her hair was dazed: it seemed a little difficult to do.
…………
When Wang Jiawei watched "Lan Yu", he felt that Chu Qing had a hidden sexiness.
Of course, the role of Handong is also very good, but it is too comprehensive and perfect, and there is no amazing temperament. He should be the kind of closed, lonely, almost ascetic wandering in the love of men and women.
Abstinence, equally sexy.
From the first day, Lao Wang was knocking on his shell, until the fifth day, when he finally revealed what he wanted. And after Chu Qing finished that scene, he seemed to have found a feeling, and in the next few days of filming, there was often NG, but it has been greatly reduced.
The investor of "Eros" is abroad, and it brings together three stories by three great directors, no matter how capricious Lao Wang is, he has to take into account the cycle constraints to cooperate with the distribution plan there.
Therefore, after the hero and heroine were transparent, he suddenly sped up.
It's not that Wang Jiawei can't shoot fast scenes, like the petty bourgeois Bible of "Chongqing Forest", it only took 23 days to get it. He's just habitually procrastinating. Grind grind, to put it bluntly: cheap.
Halfway through filming, the crew moved to Macau, where they stayed for two days.
The scene is very simple, some narrow and cramped corridors, and small hotels with old tastes, almost all of them are empty mirrors, Chu Qing and Gong Li are constantly going upstairs and downstairs, downstairs and upstairs.
By the time they returned from Macau, it was after Christmas. Before New Year's Day, the new year will be two days away.
December 29, half past nine in the evening.
There are still a few hundred meters away from the Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital, and Chu Qing got out of the car with Lin Jiaxin.
On that narrow street, there were more than 50 broadcast vans, television stations, radio stations, newspapers, and magazines. The media of all Hong Kong have been here, and it has been since four hours ago.
When they approached on foot, a group of reporters were chasing Zheng Xiuwen into the door, and they didn't ask anything at all. But when he turned his head to look, he immediately wrapped up again.
"Did you come to see Ame?"
"According to the doctor, she's limited tonight, can you talk about how she feels?"
"Hey. Tsai! Tsai! ”
“……”
Chu Qing had never hated the media like this, so he held back his anger and escorted Lin Jiaxin into the hall. And Zheng Xiuwen standing in the elevator. Seeing them, he hurriedly pressed the switch.
Sixth floor, intensive care unit.
The three of them looked at the climbing of the indicator light layer by layer, their expressions were depressed, and they didn't even have the heart to say hello.
"Ding!"
Soon, the elevator opened, and half of the Hong Kong entertainment industry was greeted by him.
Zhang Xueyou, Luo Meiwei, Liu Dehua, Cheng Long, Xie Tingfeng, Chen Yixun, Yang Ziqiong, Zhong Chuhong, Guan Jinpeng, etc., gathered in the long corridor, and even there were not enough seats, and many people were standing.
A few days ago, when Amei was at her strictest, her family was forbidden to visit her so as not to get infected. But now, if you stop it, it will be too impersonal.
"You're here......"
Brother Xueyou reluctantly said hello, patted the two of them on the shoulder, and said, "Let's go in." ”
"Hmm."
Lin Jiaxin covered her mouth, her eyes slightly red.
The ward was very bright, Anita Mui was thin and small on the bed, with various tubes inserted into her body and various radio waves. Her mother, assistant, and one of her best friends, Liu Peiji, were standing by.
"Amei, Qingzi is here, Jiaxin is here."
Liu Peiji leaned his head closer and whispered in her ear, while Anita Mui opened her eyes with a dull expression, but her eyes kept moving.
"Sister Mei."
Chu Qing bent down and also called.
Liu Peiji shook his head and said, "The doctor said that this is a natural reaction of the cranial nerves, and she can't see it." ”
“……”
The two of them couldn't help choking up, and they didn't know what to say, so they had to stand in a daze for a while, not to bother much, and then turned around and said goodbye.
When I arrived at the door, I saw Chen Xiaochun and He Yunshi hurrying in, and then, a sentence also came from behind me:
"Amei, Xiaochun is here, Hocc is here......"
At this time, it was already more than ten o'clock.
There are no fewer people in the hospital, and relatives and friends continue to come to visit, one after another. Qiu Shuzhen and her family even took four lamas to chant and pray outside, and recited for more than an hour before leaving.
Time passed little by little, during which Anita Mui woke up twice, and soon fell into a coma again.
Whether it is Hong Kong, the mainland, or Taiwan, there are a large number of people who are paying attention to the news here. Amei's agent also ran to the entrance of the hospital several times to persuade the media to evacuate and not to spread the news of the death, but to no avail.
Until the early hours of the morning, relatives and friends still arrived, some left, some stayed. Chu Qing and Lin Jiaxin stood in the corner of the corridor, always waiting, but the girl obviously couldn't support it.
"Why don't you go back first, I'll call you when there's news." He persuaded.
She shook her head and said, "I've been waiting for so long, it's okay." ”
"Then you find a place to lie ......"
As he was talking, he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps, and Amei's assistant ran out of the ward like crazy, calling for a doctor.
"Brush!"
The people who stayed behind, including Chu Qing, all took a step forward, but they all stopped together.
After a while, Liu Peiji walked out and said: She looked very peaceful, without the slightest struggle.
"Woo ......"
Lin Jiaxin was already leaning on Chu Qing's shoulder and couldn't stop sobbing.
Flowers drift away, red dust grows old, 2003, it's too long...... (To be continued......)
