Just after the new year, the film crew of "Tracking" flew to Berlin to participate in the film festival. The film festival lasted for ten days. The film crew went to attend the premiere on the day of the opening ceremony.
For many days afterwards, Zhou Ziheng and Xia Xiqing stayed in the hotel, occasionally sneaking out in the middle of the night without people. It was cold outside. Two guys in thick down jackets were next to each other and did nothing. They just pressed down on the streets of Berlin. road. For their relationship that cannot be exposed, this is enough.
Berlin is very cold, and it is even more chilly at night. At four o'clock in the morning one day, two people walked to Berlin Cathedral.
There was no one around. Zhou Ziheng and Xia Xiqing in down jackets stood at the door of the church. Xia Xiqing wore a dark blue woolen hat and looked up at this beautiful and solemn building. The street lamp hit his face, and it was set against it. His skin was white and glowing.
"You look good."
Xia Xiqing glanced at him and sneered, "You don't look good. You look like this black down jacket looks like a movie seller."
Both of them laughed. Zhou Ziheng took out a lollipop from his pocket and tore the candy paper into his mouth, "What are you doing here? We can't go in at this point."
Xia Xiqing raised his head, and when he spoke, there was a white mist in his mouth and the tip of his nose was red.
"We couldn't get in."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand to grab the lollipop in Zhou Ziheng’s mouth. Zhou Ziheng pulled his neck to prevent him from grabbing it. The two of them pulled for a while. Zhou Ziheng finally compromised. He reached out and squeezed Xia Xiqing’s face and joked. "A villain like you can't go to heaven."
"What's so good about heaven?" Xia Xiqing kicked off a stone beside her feet, and looked at the ornate dome of the cathedral with a lollipop, "but... if you are in heaven, when I didn't say it."
Hearing that he withdrew the foreword for himself, Zhou Ziheng was very happy, "Then if I am really there, you are really not allowed to go to heaven."
This kind of meaningless assumption, I don't know what is necessary for discussion.
But... it's not entirely unnecessary.
"If a sinister and cunning person like me can't go to heaven..." Xia Xiqing remembered the lyrics of a song. He turned around, took out the lollipop in his mouth, and turned his fingers around. The crystal sugar ball was faint. There was a dim light under the lights.
Lips stained with honey make beautiful syllables.
"Kill my way to heaven."
Make a bloody road to see you in heaven.
At the time of the awards ceremony, there was a lot of suspicion about the awards of this film festival on the Internet. Most people were not optimistic about Zhou Ziheng. After all, he is so young and the possibility of winning Category A awards in one fell swoop is really not high, but since After the premiere, almost all the film reviews circulating on the Internet were extremely high.
[Zhou Ziheng and "Tracking" are both dark horses of this year's film festival. ]
This is the most frequent comment.
Although fans are looking forward to Zhou Ziheng's award, they can only lower their stance on the Internet. They only say "Nomination is affirmation", and they dare not say anything for fear of smashing their faces. Even words of encouragement can only be told to Zhou Ziheng on his Weibo.
The film festival time passed quickly, and the award ceremony finally arrived. When entering the venue, Song Nian walked ahead with Kuncheng's hand, Zhou Ziheng and Xia Xiqing side by side, followed closely behind.
Zhou Ziheng wore a full black suit and an ankle-length black coat over his shoulders. He was a full-fledged noble son Fan. Xia Xiqing wore a dark gray British style coat with a tight belt, narrow waist and long legs, in a yuppy style.
There are six Chinese-language films that were shortlisted in the main competition unit. Everyone got together to take a group photo. Many domestic media also flew in for interviews. Compared with other films, they won the "Best Actor" and "Best Actor". The "Following" double nomination of "Director Jia" is undoubtedly the hottest interview. However, the crew chief has a conservative attitude towards awards and did not talk too much.
For others, as soon as Xia Xiqing arrived, the reporters' questions became varied.
"Xi Qing? You have not been nominated this time, will you feel a little unbalanced in your heart?"
"Xi Qing looks at this, will you still film next time?"
"Xi Qing Xiqing, can you talk about your relationship with Media Asia? Why did you decide to participate in this movie?"
"Xi Qing, why did you enter the entertainment industry? Has your family stopped it?"
Xia Xiqing got a headache because of the quarrel. He took a microphone and said, "Listen well, I will only say it one last time. I haven't entered the entertainment circle. After filming this movie, I will not pick up new films, and will concentrate on my own business. "
He paused, "Also, I record reality shows and make movies because I am a fan of Zhou Ziheng. I participated in these all because of Zhou Ziheng."
In the last sentence, he was frank and frank, and no one thought about it in other ways.
Only Zhou Ziheng was stunned for a moment, but was quickly dragged away by Xia Xiqing.
There were so many people on the scene that no one cared to say anything more. After the interview, the crew returned to the designated lounge.
Although Zhou Ziheng behaved very decently during the interview, Xia Xiqing knew very well that he must be nervous.
As soon as he walked into the lounge, Zhou Ziheng sat on the sofa without saying a word, holding up a glass of water and drinking silently. Xia Xiqing sat next to him and gently touched his back. Saying "Don't be nervous" to him now is basically useless to do work, so he didn't plan to say it, just staying with him silently.
Kuncheng is also very nervous. Although he has won many awards abroad, they are all non-mainstream niche awards after all. He walked around the room nervously, "It's okay, the nomination is already very good, very good. It will be better in the future."
Song Nian couldn't help laughing, "I have found it now. It's a good thing not to be nominated, I'm relaxed."
Xia Xiqing saw that she was preparing to eat cakes with gifts, and reminded, "You also have a bit of quality as a female celebrity."
Song Nian stuck his tongue out, and saw Zhou Ziheng still bowing his head, holding his hands tightly together, holding back what he wanted to say, and took a sip of coffee.
Not long after, a staff member walked in and told them that the award ceremony was about to begin. Kuncheng nodded and put on his coat, "Let's go."
Song Nian also clapped her hands and took her dinner bag, "OK."
Zhou Ziheng stood up in a daze, preparing to follow them, but Xia Xiqing pulled her elbow and heard Xia Xiqing say behind him, "Guardian, you go first, I have something to tell him."
"Okay, then you guys hurry up, don't delay."
When the door closed, Zhou Ziheng turned around and asked gently what was wrong. Xia Xiqing lowered his eyes and carefully arranged his suit jacket.
"In fact, I really hate flat and straightforward expressions. It sounds very..." He tried to think about the exact wording. "It's very brainless, too simple, and doesn't have the well-designed sense of value. Sometimes this The cost of the method is also very high. It requires a lonely courage. But I still want to say,"
He took a deep breath and looked up at Zhou Ziheng.
"I love you."
"This is probably the most direct expression in my life." Xia Xiqing curled up his lips and repeated it again, "I love you, Zhou Ziheng. Don't doubt it."
"You will always be the best actor in my mind."
Zhou Ziheng's eye sockets were astringent, and the tense string all over his body suddenly broke. He snapped without warning and was torn off by Xia Xiqing. The most important thing in his life has been affirmed, and at this moment, everything else seems less important.
He hugged Xia Xiqing, and in a small corner of this grand awards ceremony, he hugged his most precious person.
"I... Then my trial period."
"Fool." Xia Xiqing hugged him back, "It's over long ago."
At the beginning of the awards ceremony, director Kuncheng between Zhou Ziheng and Xia Xiqing's position was separated from each other. After Xia Xiqing's confession, Zhou Ziheng was surprised to find that he did not panic so much, and the principle of this was not even known to him.
But what he didn't know was that Xia Xiqing panicked.
He was so nervous that he couldn't concentrate. He didn't remember who was on stage and said something, and he didn't have the slightest impression.
The best director award has been awarded, but it is a pity that Kuncheng missed that little silver bear, but his mentality was quite stable, he just smiled, "There is another time, don’t worry, I’m still so young."
It is also true that everyone's eyes are focused on the upcoming best actor awards, and their performance fragments have begun to appear on the big screen.
Xia Xiqing's palms were sweaty, and he was panicking like a drum in his heart. He wondered how he would comfort Zhou Ziheng once he missed the award. Tell him there is still a chance? There are many awards in China
No, it's all bad.
These were overthrown by him.
Because he really hopes that Zhou Ziheng can win the prize, more than anyone hopes.
Thinking too fascinatingly, Xia Xiqing even missed the host’s lengthy string of words. When he heard the cheers from the audience, he hurriedly returned to his senses and grabbed the Kuncheng next to him in a panic, "Who is it? Who is it?"
Kuncheng almost cried with excitement.
"real?"
Song Nian applauded and turned to Xia Xiqing and said, "Yes, it's self-honoring!"
Tight so hard to breathe, the heart exploded at the moment it heard the name, like a firework. Xia Xiqing's gaze followed Zhou Ziheng's back, watching him step by step onto the highly anticipated podium.
That is his lover, his boy.
His nose suddenly became sore, it turned out that there were times when he couldn't control his emotions.
Zhou Ziheng bowed deeply to the audience, accepted the award from the presenter, calmly said thank you in German, and then switched to Chinese. He took a deep breath and smiled.
"To be honest, I didn't expect to win an award today, so I didn't even prepare for my acceptance speech. You may hear the most confusing speech ever."
This little humor made the people in the audience laugh, and the atmosphere relaxed a lot.
Zhou Ziheng said sternly, "I feel very lucky to be nominated with so many seniors in the film industry." He paused, "First of all, I want to thank the director of Kuncheng. Thank you for your guidance and help. You are in my heart. He is the uncrowned king. I also have to thank the more than 300 staff members of the entire crew. Thank you for your contribution. Because of you, there is Gao Kun and "Tracking". This award belongs not only to me, but also to all of you. ."
There was a round of applause. Zhou Ziheng waited and continued, "Then, I want to thank my parents and family for giving me enough freedom to do whatever I want, giving me full encouragement. , I am very grateful. There are fans who have always supported me. You have always been my motivation to stick to it. I know that no matter what happens, you are always there."
Xia Xiqing smiled and applauded for him. At this moment, his heart was full of pride and touch. Zhou Ziheng on the stage is so charming and so dazzling.
"Finally, I have some more things to say. Not long ago, someone asked me why I chose to study physics as an actor. In fact, this is the first time someone asked me. I was very excited and surprised, so I never I told him the answer I told anyone. Then, on the other hand, I believe everyone will also be confused. Since I choose to study physics, why I still insist on being an actor." Zhou Ziheng smiled, "It's a bit high-sounding. My original idea was really to let people discover things that the world cannot get attention through through performance. Someone once said to me that I am an immature idealist."
Xia Xiqing was stunned, and laughed, this guy is talking farther and farther.
"But then, when I was acting, I realized that I was actually a person with a lack of emotions. As Director Kun said, I could not act the most complex and ordinary emotions of being an ordinary person. I even started to think, I One of the reasons why I like to study physics may be a kind of escape from psychology. Physics is the most essential expression of the world. It can express the principle of operation of this world with the most refined formulas. It is simple, pure, unlike humans, too difficult to understand. "Zhou Ziheng raised his head and stood on the podium looking at the person under the stage.
At the moment when his eyes met, Xia Xiqing suddenly understood something.
His ever-increasing heartbeat seemed to be some kind of strong omen.
"As an actor, I have played too many people and simulated too many emotions. In fact, I know very well that it is not my life, nor my emotions. I am just a fairly flexible container. Until a certain day , I met someone, and this container finally has what it should carry."
Hearing these words, Xia Xiqing's tears suddenly welled up, and his brain went blank.
Only the heart beats eagerly, as if trying to leave itself, to pursue the light it wants to pursue.
"After meeting you, the emotions surging in my chest are really me. They belong to Zhou Ziheng and come from Xia Xiqing."
The moment this sentence appeared with simultaneous translation, there was thunderous applause from the audience. No one thought that at the most successful moment of this famous young actor, he would choose to announce his love affair to the world. Countless people turned their heads and applauded to look at the other person in this grand confession.
Xia Xiqing endured it for a long time before she put her tears in her eyes, looked at the man on the stage with red eyes, pursing her lips and showing a small smile.
Zhou Ziheng also raised the corners of his mouth, looking at those eyes that had been searching for fifteen years across the crowd, "No, vice versa."
"It originated from Zhou Ziheng and belongs to Xia Xiqing."
Under the guidance of star debris, the little rose with its teeth and claws converged on sharp thorns and exchanged darkness for moonlight.
Jumped and plunged into the soft universe.
Permanently arrested.

The author has something to say: Today is a double update, I am afraid that some friends will miss the previous chapter, let’s talk about it in particular~
This article is finally over. This ending is the ending I envisioned at the beginning of the article. I can write it well. I think it is very satisfactory. I know that everyone is reluctant to bear it. So am I, but the self-study story will not When it's over, let them continue in their world. During the three months of serialization, thank you very much for your support.
In fact, when I was writing this article, I was under a lot of pressure. When I was serializing it, I was in the first semester of graduate school, and the work was heavy on time. It happened that the grades of this article were not very good, and there was no exposure. At that time, a friend persuaded me to cut the outline earlier and finish the settlement. There are always reasons for bad grades. Two or three hundred thousand words in love essays are enough. But I am a bit unwilling to write the story I want to write, and you are really cute, you talk to me in the comment area every day, I feel reluctant to think of this, reading the comments after nine o’clock is the happiest of my day Looking forward to the time, you have given me confidence. And most of the comment area is based on your spontaneous Amway, I know, I am really grateful to everyone.
It can be said that it is because of you that I persevered and have a complete Zhou Ziheng and Xia Xiqing.
Regarding the two of them, I want to have a good chat after my Fanwai is over, because there are a lot of their stories in Fanwai, the werewolf who promised you to kill, and the stories after coming out to the world will appear in Fanwai.
I need to take a good rest after the extra extravaganza. In fact, these days I have begun to build the worldview of the book "All Inhumans". This book I want to break through my comfort zone and try to write a large-frame story. There are conspiracies and struggles in the blood of the teenagers. The story takes place in a modern overhead world where monsters, half monsters, and humans coexist. The contradictions between different races are fierce. The slain monster Jiufeng is reborn on a human being to trace the truth of his death that year, thus involving a greater conspiracy. This book is also a strong double-A setting. If you like it, you can poke the column to collect it and wait for me to open an article~
Yesterday, a reader confessed to me on Weibo, I said thank you, but she said to me, no thanks, you deserve to be liked. To be honest, I shed tears all at once.
