"It's finished?"

When Li Tang dragged his suitcase and knocked on the door of his ex-girlfriend's house, Li Binbin was surprised.

Today is December 20th, and Li Tang is half a month ahead of the original schedule.

"Well, after filming the last scene tonight, it's finished."

Li Tang changed his shoes and sat comfortably on the sofa.

"Then you won't call in advance, I'll pick you up!"

"Forget it, there are many reporters on the crew, so you don't have to be photographed, trouble." Li Tang shook his head.

After "Returning the Pearl" became popular, it not only attracted countless fans, but also attracted a lot of media, and there were often reporters squatting on the crew, and even a strange face like him was stopped by reporters several times.

Li Binbin opened the suitcase and was packing, his movements suddenly froze, but then he quickly packed up, and naturally skipped the topic just now, and asked, "Are you hungry, what do you want to eat?" ”

"What's at home?"

Because he had to film at night, he didn't eat much for dinner, so he was really a little hungry at this time.

"Dumplings, noodles, or I'll stir-fry two dishes and have a drink?"

"Let's have a drink."

Li Tang was a little moved, and he was finished, as if he had unloaded a burden, and he was feeling physically and mentally exhausted at this time, and drinking some wine was just right to relieve his fatigue.

"You go and take out the packet of shrimp from the refrigerator and soak it in water to thaw it."

Li Binbin picked up a pile of dirty clothes and walked to the bathroom.

"Oh."

Li Tang answered lazily.

As soon as he raised his buttocks, he saw a printout on the coffee table, with four big characters written on it, "Going Home for the New Year", which was obviously a script, but in a line of small characters next to the four big characters, he saw the name "Yu Hua", which immediately attracted his attention.

Yu Hua's book, the original memory told him that he had never read most of it, but because of the film "Alive" directed by Zhang Yimou adapted from Hua's work, he was deeply impressed in the memory of the original body, and it was once used as a teaching film in the play, and he had seen it not once or twice.

Li Tang picked it up and looked at it, but he didn't find the director's name, in addition to Yu Hua's name in the screenwriter column, there were two other names, but they were all unfamiliar and I hadn't heard of them.

It's just that he was a little unsure if this "Yu Hua" was really the "Yu Hua" who wrote "Alive", so he opened it to see what was written.

At the beginning, it was written about a reorganized family, where the parents each brought a daughter, and the two daughters did not like each other, and the family relationship was very tense. Immediately afterwards, a fierce conflict broke out around the loss of five yuan at home, and the eldest daughter accidentally killed the younger daughter.

Seeing this, Li Tang couldn't help but gasp, in just one beginning, the drama conflict was very big, first the conflict of family conflicts, and then developed into the conflict of beating people to death and tearing up a family.

At this time, Li Binbin came out of the bathroom and saw that Li Tang was still sitting on the sofa, so he asked, "Have you taken out the shrimp and soaked it?" ”

"Ouch!"

This distraction has forgotten about it.

Li Tang hurriedly got up.

"Forget it, forget it, I'll do it."

Li Binbin rolled his eyes and walked into the kitchen in a hurry.

The reason why Li Tang broke up with his ex-girlfriend and is still disconnected, in addition to the unforgettable first love, a big reason is because his ex-girlfriend is capable.

For example, as soon as he entered the door, needless to say, his ex-girlfriend quickly helped him pack his suitcase, hang up his coat, put away clean clothes, and take out dirty clothes to wash.

Usually tidy up the house, cook, manage money, and take good care of him for three years together. If it weren't for his ex-girlfriend's career-mindedness, she would really be a very good candidate for a wife.

Yes, since his ex-girlfriend was busy, Li Tang sat down and continued to read the script.

This eldest daughter named Tao Lan was taken away by the police, and then the story jumped to seventeen years later. Li Tang wrenched his fingers and calculated, the beginning of the story should have happened in the early eighties, when five yuan was indeed a large number.

Seventeen years later, on the morning of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Tao Lan, who had served 17 years in prison, was allowed to go home for the New Year because of her good behavior. It was her first time home, and she would be released from prison in another year.

A policewoman in the prison is also very happy today because this is the first time she has had the opportunity to spend the New Year with her family after three years as a prison guard.

At the station, many family members of prisoners were waiting here after receiving notices from the prison, but Tao Lan was the only one to pick up, and she felt that her family might not welcome her. It just so happened that the policewoman was passing by, and she decided to send Tao Lan home first, and then back to her own home.

The story in the middle section tells the story of the policewoman and Taulan's journey home. After seventeen years in prison, Taulan is completely uncomfortable with the current city feel, and the policewoman plays an important role in her journey home.

In their short journey home, they felt a long period of indifference, which existed in the information gap with their families and in the ruins that had been demolished. When the family is nowhere to be found, that feeling of helplessness creeps into the hearts of two young women, even though they are police officers and prisoners, and it is not destined to be a pleasant return home.

"Hey, stop looking, eat!"

Before I finished reading the script, my ex-girlfriend had already prepared the dishes.

A plate of freshly cut red sausages, cold cucumbers, stir-fried shrimp, and a pot of five-year-old Huadiao.

Last time, when filming Xiao Jian's appearance, Li Tang felt that Xiao Jian's line of "Chen Shao is good" was very compelling, and on a whim, he bought a box of flower carvings and put them at his ex-girlfriend's house, and drank some every time he came over.

The warm rice wine was warm in his stomach, but it was difficult to relieve the chill in his heart - the story in the script was too cold.

"Hey, how about the script?"

The ex-girlfriend accompanied him to have a drink, just picking cucumbers to eat.

"I haven't finished reading it yet."

Li Tang shook his head, he said it was not good, or he didn't want to say it.

From the bottom of his heart, he didn't like this script at all, it was too cold, too heavy, too cruel.

is also a marginal theme, Lou Ye's "Suzhou River" at least has love, at least there are beautiful things, but he can't see a glimmer of hope in this script. He even regretted reading this script a little, and he lost his appetite, and the shrimp of the Q bomb chewed in his mouth like chewing wax.

"What are they looking for you to play, Tao Lan?" Li Tang hesitated and asked.

"No, it's a policewoman."

Li Binbin hesitated for a moment, and then said: "If I play Taolan, I may take this play." ”

"Hey, don't you want to take it?" Li Tang was stunned.

Although he doesn't like this script, it can't be denied that it is a good script, with a female theme, intense dramatic conflicts, and deep social problems exposed. For actors, this kind of script is hard to come by.

Li Binbin shook his head and said distressedly: "The schedule is wrong, if I take this scene, I will report to the crew immediately, and I will go to the prison to experience life for a period of time, and then I will shoot until the end of February next year." Not only can I not go to Hong Kong, but I can't even go home for the Chinese New Year. This year, I have agreed with my parents and Xiuxiu that I will go back to my hometown for the New Year this year......"

She said a lot, and then added: "What's more, there is not much money!" ”

Li Tang understood it, but in the final analysis, the money was not in place.

Although he felt a little regretful, he didn't want to say anything, so he asked casually: "Who is the director of this play?" ”

"Zhang Yuan!"

"Who?"

"Zhang Yuan, it's the director who was banned five years ago, and the ban has just been lifted this year."

"You don't even take his play?" Li Tang looked incredulous.
