Mei Zihan still took Liu Tianyi and the director to the home of this diehard fan.
Maybe this documentary will never be released in a lifetime, but at least everything about Zhou Mei will be recorded. It is impossible for Jiang Ying and her father not to do this for the rest of their lives, so if he does it now, he may also be giving them a chance for each other.
"Are you sure you really want to go?" Liu Tianyi still couldn't help asking, "You don't need to go, we can publish it in the name of other people. There will always be many people who want to make a documentary about Zhou Mei. Do it, I can even help you make it seamless, no one will find out, so at least you and Jiang Ying won't hurt your relationship."
"Jiang Ying and I have known each other for a long time. When Jiang Ying admitted that he was Zhou Mei's son in front of Li Ruo and Zhou Guojian, I knew that Jiang Ying could actually face this matter correctly."
This was also one of the reasons for Mei Zihan's confidence.
A wound will be filled with pus if it is left there every day, although it will heal, but it will take too long. But if you break it, it will only hurt for a while.
Both Jiang Ying and her father are rare open-minded people, especially her father. It is impossible for a man to live so young when his heart is melancholy.
From Mei Zihan's point of view, they just made themselves forget about Zhou Mei for a long time, and avoided everything about Zhou Mei, but it didn't mean that if they had forgotten, they could treat it as non-existent.
Jiang Ying could act, and Mei Zihan didn't ask Jiang Ying to really become popular in the entertainment industry. He just hoped that Jiang Ying could have a stage to perform, even if it was a drama, a musical, whatever.
It was Jiang Ying who taught Mei Zihan the charm and joy of acting. Since it is a beautiful thing, why must he be the only one who can enjoy it
"To be honest, since Jiang Ying agreed to date me, the two of us have never quarreled." Mei Zihan couldn't help laughing, "Because Jiang Ying gave me a questionnaire at the beginning. , very thick, I wrote all the shortcomings that I have and don’t have on it, and I was really not sure about some, so I called and asked my former friends and classmates. Jiang Ying said, I have prepared in advance , so I can tolerate the mistakes I make in the future. I know very well that I wrote on the questionnaire that I can't do things with my brain."
"Since it is really going to be a documentary, then as a member of my family, I naturally have this right. The family's affairs are closed, and they can do whatever they want, but they will always be a family."
Hiding behind the back and watching everything secretly, it is true that you can feel at ease and not hurt your feelings. Some feelings can only come out after arguing and arguing, and Mei Zihan is not very afraid of this.
Maybe there is also a little bit of expectation.
If Mei Zihan could not be more happy than himself if he won the awards of the three major film festivals, then if he could act one-on-one with Jiang Ying under the camera, it would definitely make him happier than winning the award matter.
"I really don't understand you, after all, I'm a straight man." Liu Tianyi replied dejectedly.
"It has nothing to do with gender, it's just love. In fact, I also feel that when I say this, I look like a silly and sweet protagonist in a third-rate routine novel. To put it bluntly, I am just comforting myself." Mei Zihan whispered Smiled, with a dash of self-mockery.
They picked a sunny day to go to the house of the die-hard fan.
The fan's surname is Huang, and he is already a quite successful businessman.
When Mei Zihan and Liu Tianyi took the director there, Mr. Huang was the only one at home.
"My children are all working and rarely come back. Today I asked the nanny to go back first." Mr. Huang should be about the same age as his father, but he looks much older than him.
"When I was young, I seldom cared about my health in order to make money, but now I suffer when I'm old." Mr. Huang looked at Mei Zihan twice, "I didn't expect that the investor would be you?"
He thought that the person who would make Zhou Mei's documentary would be a middle-aged man, or a fan like him, but he didn't expect it to be a young man, a popular idol star.
"Is Mr. Huang surprised?" Mei Zihan showed a friendly smile, "Actually, even if I made this documentary, I'm afraid I wouldn't make it public. It's probably just for my own wish."
"I can understand." Mr. Huang said as he led the three of them to his own study.
When they opened the room, Mei Zihan and the others were a little stunned.
The room was covered with all kinds of yellowed posters, some of which were even black and white pictorials. There is a bookcase, which is neatly filled with various CD-ROM magazines and picture albums. With a quick glance, you can see that these things are almost all about Zhou Mei.
"I was lucky enough to sit at the same table as Zhou Mei when I was a teenager. But I soon couldn't adapt to life abroad and went home. I never thought that the beautiful female classmate at that time would follow her back to China and become a movie star. Mr. Huang carefully took out a small photo from the drawer, "This is a photo I took with her at school before I returned to China. Zhou Mei was still very young at that time."
Mei Zihan leaned over to take a look. After such a long time, the photo was not well preserved. In fact, it was already a little unclear, but Mei Zihan vaguely felt that this was Jiang Ying's appearance.
"Twenty or thirty years ago in the entertainment circle, stars in our mainland had almost no status. Even if they were first-line stars in our mainland, they could only play supporting roles in Hong Kong and Taiwan movies. This kind of exploitation. If you don’t go to Hong Kong and Taiwan, there will be no good movies for you. Zhou Mei could have become a Hong Kong and Taiwan citizen at that time, but she didn’t want to.”
"Ms. Zhou Mei doesn't want to be like others." Mei Zihan thought for a while and said.
"Yes, she thinks that she can solve it by her own strength. There is no need to follow the same path as others. At that time, she was the first in the class. She is very strong and unwilling to admit defeat. If she wants to do it, she will do her best. Good." Mr. Huang also laughed, many people think that they do not have Hong Kong and Taiwan citizenship because they like the mainland, but in fact they are all one country, Zhou Mei doesn't care about this.
Even at that time, the entertainment industry in Hong Kong and Taiwan gave special treatment to people who came back from abroad. But Zhou Mei didn't think about using this to hype herself, she just wanted to act with her strength.
Because of this kind of thinking, the more obstacles Zhou Mei encountered, the more determined she became. She endured a lot of hardships, and she did all the scenes that many people didn't want to shoot by herself, so she was able to carve out her own space surrounded by Hong Kong and Taiwan stars.
"I like her very much. She has a special fighting spirit. If I hadn't targeted her, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to earn such a large family fortune." Mr. Huang pulled out a CD, "Because my ability to make money is not enough. Not bad. Before Zhou Mei became popular, I consciously collected a lot of video materials. Later, I also contacted his agent. Many things in my hand were out of print. After Zhou Mei died, many collections Everyone has come to me, hoping that I can sell things, but I have not agreed to any of them."
Having said that, Mr. Huang looked up at Mei Zihan, Liu Tianyi and the others again, "What is the purpose of you filming the documentary? I want to hear the truth."
————————
"Father, I have a gift for you." At night, Mei Zihan returned to Jiang's house alone.
"I remember that it will be your 29th birthday soon. My son has already told me that I should give you a gift." Jiang Yao looked at Mei Zihan and said with a smile. .
"I'll be back after my birthday party with my fans tomorrow." Mei Zihan mustered up his courage, "I really want a birthday present, Dad, can you give it to me?"
"What do you want? If you are short of money, you can tell me. Sometimes Ah Ying really has nothing to do with money."
Mei Zihan stood where he was, faltering and saying nothing.
"Even if you let my son be knocked out, strip him naked and send him to your bed, I can agree." Jiang Yao couldn't help teasing, he was also very anxious.
Damn, this birthday present is too much for me to hold.
My heart is about to shake.
No no no, hold on!
"I hope to have a chance to cooperate with Jiang Ying." Mei Zihan said out her heart in one breath, "Dad, I know that you don't want to enter the entertainment circle because of your mother. To be honest, These days I secretly made a mother documentary behind Jiang Ying's back."
The smile on Jiang Yao's face gradually disappeared.
"Why are you doing this?"
"Because I don't clean up." Mei Zihan smiled wryly, "I've prepared a rolling pin. If you really feel unhappy, just whip me up."
Mei Zihan picked up the remote control, and the projector soon lit up.
In fact, the documentary doesn't need much editing, it just needs to introduce some audio clips in front of Zhou Mei, advertising magazines and other things one by one.
Mei Zihan then read all these things.
People like Zhou Mei are worthy of everyone's love.
Therefore, Mei Zihan didn't find it strange that her father fell in love with her.
If Mei Zihan had been older and had known Zhou Mei in her golden age, his goddess would have changed by now.
The duration of the documentary is not long, even if all of Zhou Mei's materials are played, it is only an hour. Because Zhou Mei only lived less than 30 years old, she stopped at her most beautiful moment.
"The acting industry allows us to experience the lives of different people and play various roles in a short period of time. Every time we turn on the phone, it is like enjoying another different life scenery. This feeling will Addicted." Mei Zihan looked at her father seriously, "Even my mother really loves this industry wholeheartedly, even though this industry is wrapped in countless dark things, she never thought of quitting."
When actresses from Hong Kong and Taiwan were vying to marry into a wealthy family, Zhou Mei was only one step away from a wealthy family, but she still closed the door and went to her movie as usual.
So she became a legend.
The short documentary finally stayed on Zhou Mei's 25-year-old bright smiling face.
At that time, this was the age when Jiang Yao and Zhou Mei knew each other.
This is an age that has experienced youthful and ignorant youth, has been able to fully control one's own life, and can clearly know what one wants.
Jiang Yao's eyes stayed on Zhou Mei's face for a long, long time.
But after Zhou Mei died, his relatives and friends wished that he would never see Zhou Mei in front of him again, and never mention this name again, as if this person had never appeared in his life.
But how can someone who has already appeared before just forget it
For those who liked Zhou Mei once, it is very difficult to like others.
Jiang Yao has traveled the world for so many years, he has seen a lot of beauties, but no one can compare with Zhou Mei.
He loves Zhou Mei, and naturally he also loves her desperate determination for the movie she likes, her melancholy expression, every corner of her clothes, every strand of hair, every strand of air she breathes and every step she stands on. an inch of land.
He also loves Jiang Ying, the son of the two of them.
"I am very grateful to you for allowing her to stay with me forever in this form. Thank you for your documentary, which is the best gift I have ever received. However, I do not want Jiang Ying to enter the entertainment circle, and I do not want him to act. Not because of his mother."
