Su Pei underestimated the speed at which gossip spreads, and the crew can't hide their secrets at all.
Yesterday, as long as one person at the table told the joke about He Yiming's scolding against Fang Ziling, it would not take a long time for most of the crew to know - "He Yiming satirized Fang Ziling as illiterate" "Fang Ziling was ridiculed for not reading a single book".
Su Pei is sober now and begins to think that this is not so funny.
Xiaoyan said: "I still think it's a little funny. Didn't Fang Ziling market her love of reading before, she was a talented woman. As a result, she was on a game reality show some time ago, and she couldn't even name three Chinese writers. Three One, three. Only the woman set it up long ago. He Yiming made a mockery in front of him, which is a breath of life for you."
Su Pei thought that he didn't need He Yiming to let him out. But this is not suitable to say to Xiao Yan.
He just warned her: "Don't write this on your Weibo. Don't make trouble for yourself."
He knows that Xiaoyan has a personal account, hair and makeup clothes, daily jokes, and edging content related to the crew. She is more diligent in Weibo, writes fun, and more and more fans follow her.
Xiaoyan immediately said: "Mr. Su, I still have this sense of proportion. You are too worried about me."
She also wanted to ask something about He Yiming and him. Su Pei didn't want to recall the past in front of young girls. He vaguely passed it.
Some facts, because they are too coincidental, speak as if he is bragging, like putting money on himself. So Su Pei rarely mentioned it.
But Su Pei knew that these were the facts - when he was in college, Su Pei firmly believed that He Yiming would definitely do something big and that he would definitely become a character. Before everyone discovered He Yiming's ability, Su Pei thought so.
At that time, He Yiming's father went bankrupt, his mother was ill, and his relationship with his parents was tense. Wandering around at school all day, on the verge of dropping out, spending time in the drama club, only having one face to please girls, and then quickly driving them away.
At that time, both teachers, classmates and members of the drama club regarded He Yiming as a cynical freak. When no one was optimistic about He Yiming, Su Pei insisted that He Yiming was the smartest and most talented person he had ever met.
He remembered that He Yiming was very silent when he first came to the drama club, always sitting in the corner watching their rehearsal silently.
But the first time they talked, he immediately realized that every suggestion He Yiming said was on point.
Sometimes Su Pei will feel that he cares so much about He Yiming's friendship that he can't let it go. One of the reasons is that he discovered He Yiming's glory before others saw it. He was the first to discover the rough stone of He Yiming.
Su Pei kept his mouth shut and didn't mention his past with He Yiming. He rarely sternly said to Xiaoyan: "Write your script well, and don't always focus on gossip."
At the same time, He Yiming was sitting in the car, and the driver drove him smoothly on the highway leading to the airport.
Outside the car window is the scenery of early winter, the trees and the ground have become dry and thin, as if waiting for the first snow to cover.
In the scene of fast retreating, He Yiming remembered a long time ago, in the winter when "The Other Side of Time" was published, Su Pei and him traveled by car for the first time. I drove to a place where there was no front of the village and no shop behind, and then got angry on the side of the road.
They were starving and sat on the roadside for a makeshift picnic, opposite a large field of wheat that had been harvested, and the outlines of the distant mountains gradually blurred in the twilight.
They ate packed roast chicken, bread and apples, finally stopped complaining about each other, and had a good chat again.
Su Pei suddenly said, "I'm getting married."
He blurted out: "What? Why?"
Su Pei looked at him and smiled, and said, "Do you need to ask why?"
He Yiming pinched his memories, he didn't want to recall any more. He thought that as time passed, this memory would gradually fade, and eventually there would be no trace, but he was wrong. Even today, those pictures, Su Pei's voice at that time, are still so fresh, they still make him sting.
Every time he recalled, he could only pull himself out.
Thinking of this, He Yiming turned on his phone and left a message to Yao Zhicheng: "I went to the crew to see Su Pei. He has lost some weight, but he is in good spirits. Everyone in the crew likes him."
Three days later, Fang Ziling came back with a "fever and cured".
She carried several large boxes of coats, trench coats, skirts, jackets, boots, high heels, all kinds of dazzling scarves hats and sunglasses accessories. There are also many small giveaways. It took her assistant a while to move these things.
In addition to these ordinary loot, Fang Ziling also brought one thing - a book.
Obviously Fang Ziling still took He Yiming's irony to heart. She asked the assistant to carry a box of books in her LV old-fashioned suitcase and put it on her trailer.
Between filming, Fang Ziling always held a book, usually a novel by Keigo Higashino. But she just flipped through it for five minutes and asked the assistant to take a few pictures of her, and the book quickly turned into a phone pad.
In this way, of course, no one would say anything in front of Fang Ziling. And Fang Ziling distributed a delicate little gift to almost every member of the crew. Even Xiaoyan stopped gossip for a few days because she took a small gift, and also posted a photo on Weibo, "Ziling gave our crew a small gift, it's so sweet (love)."
Fang Ziling's attitude towards Su Pei was better than before. I don't know what Bai Wenchen said to her, but she no longer interferes directly with Su Pei's work.
Su Pei knew very well that this was because of He Yiming's influence.
Not only Fang Ziling, but even the director became polite to him.
On this day, they are going to shoot a dance party, and there is also a scene where the heroine is drunk. Fang Ziling drank a small glass of white wine before filming in order to bring the feeling of drunkenness. In the early winter night, a layer of natural rosy appeared on her face.
During the break, Fang Ziling and Su Pei chatted. It was the first time they had spoken alone since the day of the party.
"How do you think I just acted?" Fang Ziling asked with a smile. She was wrapped in a down jacket, revealing only the hem of her gorgeous long skirt.
Su Pei said truthfully: "Very good. It's exactly the same as Wen Li written in the script."
Fang Ziling laughed in a low voice and said, "Hmph, it's not that I'm arrogant, I can act much better than him!" She was referring to the male protagonist who has no acting skills, and is a more powerful relationship.
Not far away, the assistant director was waving his arms and gesturing to the male protagonist.
Su Pei said: "The director should think so too."
Fang Ziling opened a small delicate metal box that contained cigarettes, and she handed one to Su Pei. They smoke together.
She asked casually, "You and He Yiming have known each other for so long, haven't you thought about working with him?"
Sure enough, Su Pei was not surprised when the topic turned to He Yiming. He still does Tai Chi though, smiling and saying, "I don't think he and I need to work together."
Although he has been a screenwriter for three years, he has actually learned not to brag and sell himself.
Fang Ziling thought he was pretending to be low-key. She smiled and said: "Maybe he will invest in film and television? I heard that someone recently wanted to make a biopic of him."
It was the first time that Su Pei heard about this. He didn't expect that when He Yiming was less than thirty years old, someone wanted to make a biopic of him.
He remembered that He Yiming had said that Bo Wenchen wanted to pull him to invest in film and television.
He made a joke: "If you make a biopic of He Yiming, what role do you want to play?"
This question put Fang Ziling upside down. Because He Yiming's story does not have a heroine. Although he has many scandals, he has never heard who his true love is.
Fang Ziling asked, "Why, didn't He Yiming have a first love that broke his heart when he was in college?"
Su Pei said, "No. He has always been the only one who hurt girls' hearts."
He said and took a puff of cigarette. Fang Ziling gave him a slender female cigarette, but he did not violate the harmony when he was holding it. His face in the smoke under the light looked softer and less haggard.
Fang Ziling suddenly realized that it was the first time that she had been so close. She looked at the screenwriter's face carefully. His face was pale, so he looked very clean. Unlike her previous impression of frailty, his eyebrows and eyes were very moving.
Maybe he's also a storyteller. Fang Ziling lost her mind for a moment.
Su Pei looked at her: "I see, you can play an original character." He was still joking, light and casual.
Fang Ziling's eyes dodged for a moment, and she smiled: "Really. But He Yiming definitely doesn't agree with me playing his goddess, right?"
Su Pei also laughed. Fang Ziling suddenly asked again: "I really didn't think that "The Other Side of Time" was written by Mr. Su. I never thought that Su Pei was Mr. Su."
Su Pei didn't expect Fang Ziling to mention this, and there seemed to be some meaning in his tone.
"What, have you heard of it before?"
Fang Ziling said, "I've seen it. At that time, I shared a lease with a good friend, and one day she gave me a novel, and she said that the heroine was very similar to me, beautiful, proud, and very self-willed... I put this in a week. After reading this novel, I still wonder if the author knows me..." She said with a smile.
Su Pei just smoked slowly. Fang Ziling looked at him with a calm expression, and did not seem to be flattered. Although he was smiling, the corners of his eyes were still filled with indifferent tiredness.
She restrained her laughter and asked, "When you were in college, did you often make girls sad like He Yiming?"
Su Pei smiled a little, and said, "No. I'm different from He Yiming."
"I don't believe it. You guys are all the same. I've seen it a lot."
"Which?"
"He's handsome and has some talent. Many people like it in college, right?"
Su Pei said: "I only had one girlfriend in college, and we got married after graduation."
Fang Ziling was really surprised, but Su Pei immediately added: "We are already divorced."
"Why?" Fang Ziling blurted out.
Su Pei said: "Because I was too young when I got married, there are many things that we didn't expect at that time."
He thought a lot about his problems and Shen Lan's problems.
In the end, it can only be summed up in one sentence.
After the cigarette was finished, Fang Ziling touched up her makeup and was ready to continue shooting. She took off the down coat, revealing the thin but revealing long skirt.
"Mr. Su, it would be nice if we chatted earlier." She turned her head and smiled at Su Pei Yanran.
The author has something to say: He Yiming: You are the heroine of the Lao Tzu biopic! Su Pei!
