They stood under the tree, and the lush branches and leaves above their heads covered a shade. Liang Sizhe vaguely felt as if something had happened, but he couldn't guess what it was, and asked again, "What happened?"
"Where are my dad and Yin... uncle?"
"I'm discussing the movie to be filmed in the tube building over there. Would you like to go see them?"
"No, no, I'm not going." Cao Ye stepped back, but there was a tree behind him, his back hit the tree, and the traces from the belt still hurt a little, so he subconsciously "hiss".
"Cao Ye, did something happen?" Liang Sizhe observed his expression and realized that his back might be hurt, "You were beaten? Who beat you?"
"No," Cao Ye denied, and hesitantly asked, "My dad and... Uncle Yin, how are they?"
This question was ambiguous, Liang Sizhe thought he was asking about their working status in the crew.
"They're pretty good." Liang Sizhe tried to keep his tone relaxed, trying to say something pleasant to make Cao Ye happy, "You're right, Uncle Yin is like Doraemon, what did your dad ask him to do? Can be satisfied... Your dad, he's really good, I don't know how to play a lot of times, but I understand him a little bit. Everyone in the crew is very convinced of him, and after getting close to him, I think he's really good. I'm quite busy, so I didn't mean to ignore you, he didn't leave the crew very much in the past year, and he had to film every day until the early morning..."
Cao Ye interrupted him: "Didn't he just leave the crew two days ago?"
"You know the group is on vacation? That's the flu infection in the crew," Liang Sizhe said with a smile. "In those days, there were always people sneezing and interfering with the filming, so Mr. Cao gave the whole group three days off to go back to recuperate..." He was saying, temporarily The assistant hurried over, "Si Zhe, Director Cao asked you to take your seat."
"Oh... Okay." Liang Sizhe responded. As soon as Cao Ye came, he didn't have the heart to film, but Cao Xiuyuan asked him to come over. He couldn't continue chatting with Cao Ye, otherwise it would delay the time of the entire crew.
"I have to go," Liang Sizhe said, looking at Cao Ye, "Would you like to wait for me in the building for a while? Aren't you afraid of the heat, there is a fan over there, cool down, I will try to finish filming as soon as possible."
"I'll be right here, but I won't bother you shooting."
"That's fine too." Liang Sizhe thought for a while and said. When Cao Ye was in the past, he might not even have the heart to film. It might be better to finish filming early, have a meal with Cao Ye after work, and ask him what happened.
Walking back to the vicinity of Tongzilou, Liang Sizhe did not rush to take his seat immediately, but went back to the storage place to get his coat, took out his wallet, and said to his assistant, "Sister Zhuang, help me to buy one. Boxes of ice cream, and soda, to be chilled…”
Before the words were finished, another person came over to urge: "Si Zhe hurry up, everyone else is ready, just wait for you to take your seat."
"Come on," Liang Sizhe responded, walked over, turned around, and threw his wallet to the assistant, "Then, there is a small fan in my place, you can help me bring it to my friend too."
"I know," the assistant took the wallet and responded repeatedly, "Come on, or Director Cao should be angry."
Liang Sizhe ran over, Cao Xiuyuan was talking to the photographer about the precautions for a while, when he saw him coming, he put his hand on his shoulder, took him two steps to the side, and told him a play: "You start from here in a while, Go all the way to the sixth floor, pass every door on each floor and listen to what’s going on inside. You can control the length of time, don’t stop in the middle, the cameraman will follow you to shoot, here we try a long shot…”
Liang Sizhe nodded in response while listening.
Cao Ye leaned against the tree for a while, then got up and took two steps to the side. Tongzilou looked away, and he saw that Cao Xiuyuan was holding Liang Sizhe's shoulders to teach him a play.
It was a normal elder who hugged the younger, and he released it after only a while, but he felt upset for some reason.
He stared numbly at the people who were walking in a hurry. Hundreds of people in the entire crew were busy performing their duties, but he was just an outsider, and it seemed that he was not in the same world with them, nor in the same world with Liang Sizhe.
—Yes, what did he say to Liang Sizhe? Say that my dad and Uncle Yin are in bed, stay away from them, no, you better not stay in the crew, the farther away from them the better, don't have anything to do with them, they are so disgusting, I don't want to see you Work closely with them... how is that possible? If you don't play "Thirteen Days", what should Liang Sizhe do
While staring in that direction, Zheng Yin came out of the building and said something to a staff member as he walked. When he looked up, they looked at each other.
A few dozen meters away, Cao Ye could still see Zheng Yin for a moment. Zheng Yin said a word to the man next to him, then left the man and walked towards Cao Ye.
"Xiao Ye." He heard Zheng Yin calling him.
Cao Ye instinctively took two steps back, turned around, and ran away. He didn't want to see Zheng Yin, he wanted to run away.
The picture started to loop in his mind again, and once the loop started, he couldn't stop, and he felt sick again. He ran very far, hundreds of meters or thousands of meters, until he was sure that Zheng Yin couldn't catch up, then he slowed down, took a few steps to stop, supported a tree by the roadside, and retched a few times. People passing by all turned to look at him, but he ignored it, turned his back, leaned against the tree trunk to calm the churning feeling in his chest.
nausea.
It was all fake.
No wonder he was so good to himself, because he always regarded him as the second most trusted person in the world.
Liar, damn it!
Since when? When he was six years old when he first saw him? or earlier
For ten years, they have been lying to him! Keep looking at him as an idiot!
After being sold and helping to count the money, you are a fool like yourself, right
Hypocrisy, shameless, disgusting!
Cao Ye got up from the tree trunk and walked in the opposite direction of the shooting location.
He didn't know how he came here, he had a large group of friends, but why did he come to look for Liang Sizhe.
Liang Sizhe was also annoyed, saying that Zheng Yin was like Doraemon, and that Cao Xiuyuan was really busy, what did he say? Did he also know about this, and partnered with them to betray himself
Excuse me, where are you standing? !
He took a taxi to Lin Yanna. He has a large group of good friends, not less than Liang Sizhe.
At the door of Lin Yan's house, he raised his hand to ring the doorbell, Lin Yan came out to open the door for him, Cao Ye greeted him listlessly, walked into the living room, and Lin Yan closed the door behind.
The bedroom door was not closed, and a boy's voice came from inside, lazily: "Brother Yan, close the bedroom door."
As soon as Cao Ye turned around, he vomited with a "wow" like a conditioned reflex. Lin Yan followed behind him, but he vomited without stopping, jumped and took a step back: "Fuck!"
Cao Ye ran to the bathroom with his mouth covered, leaned over the toilet, and spit out his lunch.
"What's the situation?" Lin Yan took off his shirt, followed up to see him with his upper body naked, and said cheaply, "You have morning sickness, Ye Zi? Who caused you to become pregnant?"
"roll!"
"You threw up on me and told me to get out? Is there any reason for me to fuck... No, what's the matter with you? Are you sick?"
Cao Ye went to the sink to wash his face, raised his head and drank water from the faucet, rinsed twice, and spat out the water in his mouth into the toilet: "Why didn't you say that you have someone in your family?"
"No one in my family told you before, I play with me, you play with yours, I have a good sound insulation here, so don't delay," Lin Yan leaned over to put his shoulders, "You don't mind if you want to listen to the corner brother, what."
"Isn't it disgusting, you!" Cao Ye shook off his arm, stepped out of the bathroom, walked quickly through the living room, opened the door and walked out.
"Hey, where are you going?" Lin Yan followed up and asked, "Aren't you here anymore?"
With a bang, Cao Ye slammed the door shut.
By the time Lin Yan opened the door and chased out, he had already taken the elevator downstairs.
Damn, what should I do? Who should I talk to about this
He was holding his breath in his chest, unable to get in or out, it was too congested.
I don't want to tell Lin Yan that he feels a little nauseous when he sees Lin Yan, but he has been gay with him before!
Talk to Chi Mingyao? It's no use saying that, that buddy is more naive than himself.
Then go to Dabai? No, no, once you tell Dabai, everyone will know tomorrow. You can't tell Dabai about this.
I usually have so many friends, how come now, I can't even find a single one to talk to
No wonder he just went to find Liang Sizhe. If he had to find someone to talk to, he just wanted to talk to Liang Sizhe.
Liang Sizhe is more mature than all his friends, not the kind of maturity that pretends to be mature, but the kind of maturity that really provides solutions. He didn't have to worry that others would know about what he said to Liang Sizhe, and Liang Sizhe would not mention it to others.
But now Liang Sizhe told him a lot of good things about Cao Xiuyuan and Zheng Yin! bother!
He stays in the crew every day, can't he see that there is something tricky between them? He can even see that Xiaoman likes Peng Yan!
They must be in the same group. Someone threw a mineral water bottle on the road. Cao Ye kicked it fiercely. The mineral water bottle was kicked out of the old high, fell back to the ground, and bounced weakly twice.
He took out his mobile phone and dialed it to Li You. The receiver rang for a while before being picked up, and there was the sound of Western musical instruments playing.
"Hello Xiaoye?" Li You said on the phone.
"Mom, what are you doing?" As soon as he heard Li You's voice, Cao Ye couldn't help but want to cry and feel wronged, what's the matter...
"There's a performance tonight. I'm rehearsing with the band. Have you gone to see Dad in the crew?"
"No… "
"Why haven't we seen you yet? Didn't you say that you will follow your dad to learn how to make movies this time?"
Cao Ye didn't speak, he didn't know how to answer.
Li You smiled and said, "Oh, I see, he's too busy to care about you, right? What about Uncle Zheng Yin? You can follow him to learn more. If you want to make a movie in the future, you need to do it now. Learn more from the crew, no matter what, your dad's team is the most powerful film team in China..."
But I saw that my dad and Uncle Yin... can't say it, it's hard to say it, how do you say this
What if he saw something that made him want to vomit, what would happen if he told his mother Li You
Hold.
bother!
"Got it." Cao Ye suppressed the irritability in his heart and tried his best to make his voice sound normal.
After the call was over, he didn't know what to do anymore. He had to tell his mother about this, but how to say it
After hanging up the phone, he squatted down against a tree, staring blankly at the cars coming and going on the street.
Six gods without masters.
Looking back on yesterday, it was as if I had witnessed the collapse of a god with my own eyes.
The shattered and heavy rubble smashed over his head, overwhelming the sky and crushing him...
—
It is only a momentary thing to come out of the play, but it is very difficult to want to enter the play again.
"no."
"The mood is not right."
"Come again."
"Come again."
"Come again."
"What's going on? You're in a bad state. Taking these three days off is stupid, isn't it?" After the sixth shot, Cao Xiuyuan threw the script and waved at Liang Sizhechong, "You go and think about it for a while."
Liang Sizhe walked out of the camera and went to the side to get the script.
Cao Xiuyuan was right, he didn't get into the drama. A rookie actor like him with no acting skills would not be able to perform well if he didn't get into the drama.
Liang Sizhe walked to the chair. The small fan was not taken away. He picked up the script and walked a few steps towards the side of the package.
It was empty under the tree, Cao Ye was not there, the sun was not so hot now, and at sunset, the shadow of the tree was dragged for a long time.
Liang Sizhe turned his head to look and waved to the assistant, who quickly trotted over and handed him a bottle of water.
"My friend is gone?" Liang Sizhe unscrewed the bottle cap, raised his head and took a few sips, his Adam's apple rolling up and down.
"I left a long time ago. I bought water and ice cream. When I come back, no one will be seen."
"Oh." Liang Sizhe raised his hand and wiped his mouth, frowning slightly and thinking, what happened
The ice cream on the chair has turned into water, soaking the paper cups, the tentacles are a little sticky, and the iced soda is no longer cool, and even slightly hot from the sun.
- Come and leave suddenly, is there something wrong with you
Liang Sizhe was thinking about it when he suddenly noticed that Zheng Yin walked over to the monitor and called out "Brother Yuan" with a serious expression. His voice was low, and Liang Sizhe could only hear the words "Xiao Ye" he said at the beginning.
After a while, Cao Xiuyuan frowned and said, "What should I talk to him about? What does a child know about adults?" As if Zheng Yin was going to say something, Cao Xiuyuan interrupted him, "Don't say it, the set doesn't work. Talk about private matters."
Zheng Yin dealt with all emergencies on the set and was calm and calm, but now he seems to be very preoccupied, which is really abnormal. Liang Sizhe lowered his eyes and thought, could it be that Cao Ye and Cao Xiuyuan had a conflict again? It's really strange, every time the father and son conflict, it is Zheng Yin who is anxious.
Liang Sizhe went to the rest area to get his cell phone, and called Cao Ye, but Cao Ye didn't answer, and when he called again, Cao Ye hung up.
Someone came in and urged him: "Director Cao asked how are you preparing?"
"Not yet, right now." Liang Sizhe responded.
The long shot of going up the stairs in this scene was not well captured until it was dark.
Cao Xiuyuan said that he was in a wrong state. In fact, he did not enter the play. He was always worried that Cao Ye would have an accident.
Back at the hotel in the evening, he called Cao Ye again, and this time he was connected, but it was not Cao Ye's voice on the other end of the phone, if I remember correctly, it should be Lin Yan's voice.
"He's sleeping, oh... I'll find you during the day. He has nothing to do, he just misses you." Lin Yan said sternly on the other end of the phone.
Lin Yan's voice was a bit awkward, Liang Sizhe was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, and hung up after asking a few questions about Cao Ye's situation.
The conflict last time was because Cao Ye went to the bar, what is the reason this time, could it be that Cao Ye went to the bar again? If you're with Lin Yan, you can't help it, this kid... Didn't you say last time that you didn't want to be friends with Lin Yan
After that, Liang Sizhe never saw Cao Ye again. Once he entered the play, it would be difficult for him to tell whether he was Xiaoman or Liang Sizhe. The last three months were spent on those twenty minutes of climax scenes, and the accumulated repressed emotions reached a critical point of explosion.
The feeling of being in the play is like drowning. Being immersed in this suppressed emotion every day makes him feel breathless and painful.
Three months later, "Thirteen Days" was officially completed. That night Liang Sizhe called Cao Ye again. He wanted to meet Cao Ye. It didn't matter if Cao Ye didn't come back. He got paid and could go abroad to find him. . The only way he could think of to get out of Xiaoman as soon as possible was to meet Cao Ye.
But Cao Ye didn't answer. From that call, Liang Sizhe suddenly realized that Cao Ye seemed to be hiding from himself. But he couldn't figure out why. Could it be that the young master waited too long under the sun during the filming that day, and he was unhappy? Or was Cao Ye and Cao Xiuyuan having a conflict, he didn't coax him right away, was he emotional
But no matter how much he guessed, he couldn't do anything. He couldn't get in touch with Cao Ye, and he couldn't find Cao Ye. He could only let himself be sober and confused in and out of the movie, living in a feeling of depression like drowning every day.
After that, he fell in love with Hu Yusi. At first, he thought he was really infatuated with Hu Yusi, just like Xiaoman was infatuated with Peng Yan. But after they were together, they discovered that Hu Yusi and Peng Yan were completely different people, and he was not Xiaoman either.
The play is fake, the character is fake, and his infatuation with Hu Yusi is fake.
In this way, he slowly came out of the play. He could play without Cao Ye, but the time was short.
This relationship lasted for three months. In the end, no one broke up with anyone. Hu Yusi took on a new drama, and they stopped contacting each other, so it was nothing.
After that, Liang Sizhe and Cao Ye met again at the awards ceremony of the Academy Awards.
It was Cao Xiuyuan's decision to sign up for the Best Actor at the Golden Image Awards. On the night of the banquet, Zheng Yin sat in the co-pilot seat and turned around to seek Cao Xiuyuan's opinion, asking him whether he wanted to report Liang Sizhe as the best newcomer or the best actor, Cao Xiuyuan After drinking some wine, sitting behind the driver and closing his eyes, he just threw four words to him: "Best male protagonist."
It stands to reason that a newcomer like Liang Sizhe would be more secure to apply for the Best Newcomer Award, but since Cao Xiuyuan has opened his mouth, no one has any objection. When it comes to the film, everyone trusts Cao Xiuyuan surprisingly unanimously.
Everything outside the movie was handled by Zheng Yin, and even Liang Sizhe's suit was prepared by him. A black suit with fine white lines and a twill tie was solemn and would not look too old-fashioned.
Zheng Yin brought Liang Sizhe the news of the shortlist and the suit, "Wear this on the day of the awards ceremony," he looked at him again, "The hair is long, so let's tie it up, there is no need to block your edge on this occasion."
Liang Sizhe responded. Although he didn't think he could really walk on the podium, he didn't know what he was doing for most of the filming time of "Thirteen Days" for more than a year.
But it later proved that Zheng Yin's advice was correct.
"Thirteen Days" won the award first and then was released. Before that, apart from the blurry photos secretly taken by the paparazzi from far away, no one could know from other channels what kind of newcomer Cao Xiuyuan had brought out this time. Forums continue to speculate, gossip news spreads every day, and the media and the public are full of curiosity about this mysterious newcomer.
After that night, the young actor Liang Sizhe, dressed in a suit and with long hair, looked sharp and rebellious. The scene where he held the trophy while standing in the chasing light of the stage and spoke, occupied the media headlines the next morning. , impresses everyone.
