twin stars

The road of life is as long as a dream.

The road is wind and frost, and the wind and frost are blowing dry.

In the world of mortals, how many directions do dreams have,

Looking for love in the dreamy dream,

The road is boundless.

Life is, dreams and aspirations.

In the dream, there are faint tears.

Where to go, to find the direction in my heart,

The wind sighs as if in a dream,

The road and the people are vast!

The road to the world, happy boy!

The road is rough, the sun is not shining on the rough road!

In the mud and dust, how many directions does happiness have,

A dreamlike storm,

The road follows everyone!

A dreamlike storm,

The road follows everyone!

Lei Yi

Leaving Zhao's company, Zhang Dao, and Ajie, I can no longer find the direction of life.After staying on the island for two years, I still have expectations in my heart, looking forward to returning to Hangcheng.But now that you're back, what's the result?I just drifted with the flow, and my only motivation was to provide for my family.

Now I have become very unconfident. Although I am not afraid of other people's cynicism, but in the face of other people's censure, I sometimes overreact, and my expression and posture instantly become as hard as a rock, just like me a long time ago.

"Do you know that there is a kind of crab called a hermit crab, which always hides itself in its shell?"

Ajie once asked me this sentence.Yes, I used to have a hard shell to protect myself; but Ajie dragged me out of the shell, let me bathe in the moonlight, and then left me alone.I must now find another shell and protect myself again.

Azhi's comedy talent and screenwriting talent are appreciated and put to good use. He is known as an "urgent talent" and is promoted to director in a film company.He took me to work with Xu Shaoqiang to shoot a Republic of China kung fu comedy.Xu Shaoqiang is a TV star who became popular by starring in martial arts TV series. Later, he joined Zhao Film Company and cooperated with Ajie in many Gulong movies such as "Chu Xiangshuai".We are also considered old colleagues, going around and becoming new partners.When the co-stars were filming, he played the calm one, and I played the funny and funny one. The contrast between the serious and the harmonious, was very popular with the audience, and the two movies were still a hit.

Just working with him always reminds me of Applejack.It reminds me of "The Unknown Hero", which I co-produced with Ajie.That drama is also a drama of the Republic of China, and it is also a combination of one village and one harmony.It's just that the ending of "Unknown Hero" is a tragedy, but I feel like I am filming a comedy. I shook hands with Ajie and "died" together. Effect.Ajie once said that I am suitable for acting in comedy, saying that my body language and expressions are rich and changeable, and I am eccentric, especially able to perform that kind of exaggerated comedy effect.But now, why do I have such a hard time acting in comedy?

When my career was declining and my interest in film was waning, the Hangcheng film industry began to enter the golden age of competition and talents. A group of friends who have been struggling around me began to emerge.

From the end of the 70s to the beginning of the 80s, a group of new filmmakers returned from overseas. They received relatively systematic film training, cared about reality, and had a strong sense of social responsibility.Their shooting style and shooting concept are unique and pioneering and individual, and they have created many excellent works that have far-reaching influence on the film industry, known as New Wave films.Xu Ke is one of the outstanding ones. He is also a fan of director Zhang's films. He got acquainted with Asen, who was filming in Jiahe, and the two fell in love with each other and became friends.

Fang Shijie, who once hugged me and cried bitterly in front of Gu Long, opened up a new world in the film industry with his humorous kung fu comedy.In fact, the kung fu movies of Zhao's company have begun to turn to kung fu comedies, but Fang Shijie has carried them forward and typified them.God rewards hard work, and people who are constantly motivated will always be rewarded.Hong Bao, who came from the same school as Fang Shijie, grafted humorous martial arts and ghost movies, and opened the genre of "fantastic kung fu comedy".

After years of accumulation, Ah Tim, together with comedy stars Mecca and Huang Poming, founded the "Xinyicheng" film company. He served as an actor, producer, and director, and co-produced many blockbuster works. The posture of dividing the world.Xin Yicheng's first work was a comedy directed by Asen, but at that time, Asen had a contract with Jiahe Company and had to direct under a pseudonym.At that time, although Xu Ke's New Wave films were well received, they were not well received, and because he couldn't find an investor, Asen recommended Xu Ke to join Xinyicheng.A Zhi and two other producers and actors joined soon after, forming the "group of seven" and becoming the creative core of Xin Yicheng's comedy films.The seven people used their collective talents to cross the bridge together and conceived the plots of the movie, which made the script creative and funny, and achieved great success.

A Dong wrote, directed, and acted in a realistic police and gangster film, and is honored as the originator of realistic police and gangster film directors.Ah Xiu assisted Ah Dong, participated in behind-the-scenes work and planning, and established gangster films as the core of his film career.When he was a child, he lived in a slum where gangsters and gangsters were rampant, and he once aspired to become a policeman to uphold fairness and justice.Although it didn't come true later, but now I can realize my childhood dream through movies.

My friends are still working hard in the film industry. At this time, a TV company asked me to make a TV series.In everyone's impression, the standard level of the film industry is higher than that of the TV industry, the spread of films is wider, the international influence is greater, the practitioners are more professional and excellent, the requirements for actors are higher, and the remuneration is also higher.Some people advised me that I should stick to working hard in the film industry and not lower myself to make TV series.I don't care, as long as I can make money, what does status, status, and fame matter?Now... nothing matters.

The TV series has more than 50 episodes, and it is a TV series describing the royal family's seizure of the imperial court during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty.I played the counselor of Brother Fourteen, not the protagonist, but an important supporting role.It is said that the screenwriter knew that I, the "old movie star", was coming to shoot a TV series, and was very troubled. He didn't know how to arrange me, so he specially asked me to meet, and wanted to conceive the script based on his impression of me.I don't know what kind of impression I gave him. The script that came out was that I was in love with the heroine and couldn't get it. I was deeply in love and couldn't extricate myself.

The heroine is played by an acquaintance of mine——Bai Xue. She was also a contracted actress of Zhao's company. She played supporting roles in director Zhang's movies, and now she has become a popular actress because of her appearance in TV dramas.Bai Xue joked that I rarely acted in emotional dramas before, but this time I have the opportunity to cooperate with me, it is really a good thing.

After joining the filming of TV dramas, I realized more deeply the gap between movies and TV dramas.The martial arts guidance, photography, lighting, props, as well as the director's control of the camera and the capture of the details of the actors' performances, etc. are all at the top level of Hangcheng. I practiced hundreds of times and took dozens of shots.The practitioners of TV dramas are also working hard, but the effect is still far from that of movies.I made the same mistake as when I was filming in Taijima, and made various opinions on the shooting, which caused dissatisfaction again.Maybe only by being a director yourself can you make your own decisions.

Feng Xiangjie

Xiao Yi left Zhao's company.Isn't this what I want?In the past, if someone mentioned him in front of me, I would immediately turn my face.Now, no one really mentions him anymore.That's the best way, right?I can be free, right?Don't miss him anymore, right?Right?

"I agreed to go home before eight o'clock in the evening, why are you two hours late?" I slammed the newspaper on the coffee table.

"I'm lucky today, I want to win more money. I was wrong, don't be angry!" An Ran grabbed my arm, wanting to lean on my body and act like a baby.

"Play mahjong, play mahjong all day long! Playing mahjong for one day is not enough. If you come home so late and don't make a phone call, why don't you just live with mahjong!" I roughly brushed her hand away.

An Ran looked at me, with tears in her eyes, and ran into the bedroom aggrieved.

"Ajie, why are you so fierce to An Ran? Isn't it just that you came home late? Why are you so loud?" My mother came out of her bedroom with her coat on.

"Who told her not to listen to me? I asked her to drive slowly before, but she didn't listen. The last time the car overturned, I almost lost my life. This time I came home so late, what if there is another accident while driving? What to do? Mom, tell me, I don’t care what she does?” I sat on the sofa and complained.

When I was filming a few days ago, a large mercury lamp in the studio suddenly burst and fell on top of my head. Fortunately, I reacted in time and rolled away after hearing the loud noise.There are always various accidents when filming. When I was filming "Ba Dao Lou", an extra actor accidentally stepped on a landmine beside me and was blown up. It still scares me.When I told Mom and An Ran about the explosion of the mercury lamp, I deliberately downplayed it so that they would not worry, but the alarm bells in my heart kept ringing.I hope that An Ran can be more independent and don't rely too much on me, otherwise if one day I have an accident and am gone, what will she do?She has nothing to do now, she just plays mahjong, drinks tea, and goes shopping all day long, wasting time, and I get angry just thinking about it.

"If you have anything to say, please speak up! An Ran is still young, you should be more accommodating to her, she won't refuse to listen. Come home an hour or two late... You don't have to be so strict with her!"

"I've always said the same thing. Whatever time is set, it's the time. I can do it myself, why can't she do it?"

"Oh!" My mother sighed, "Ajie, Mom knows you are very strict with yourself, but there is no need to restrain yourself like this!"

Restrain yourself?Can I not restrain myself?Can I throw everything away, do what I want, do what I want, see who I want to see?I hope so too, so I don't have to work so hard.But can I?

Now I have probably become more stubborn, old-fashioned, impatient, and even unreasonable, but I don't know how to change.If I let go of myself, I don't know what I would do.Will I run up to Xiao Yi and hold him in my arms, no matter who reprimands me loudly, I will not let go?Will I put everything aside, don't care how many people I hurt, and go to him and tie him by my side?

No, I can't!I can only tie myself tightly and tighten the rope on my body so that I can maintain my sanity and not be controlled by crazy thoughts.

"By the way," Mom approached me suddenly, with a mysterious smile on her face: "Recently, An Ran has been vomiting from time to time, and her appetite is not good. You take her to the hospital, I suspect she has it!"

What?An Ran...is pregnant?

Going to the hospital for an examination, An Ran was indeed two months pregnant!The whole family rejoiced.

"You have been married for several years, and you have said that An Ran is still young and is not in a hurry to have a child. Mom is in a hurry! An Ran is pregnant now, so don't be so cruel to her in the future!" My mother smiled from ear to ear, carefully supporting her Looking at An Ran, for fear that she might bump into something a little bit.

An Ran's face was full of joy, and she raised her head playfully and asked, "Will you still be so fierce to me in the future?"

I made a serious face on purpose: "If you do something wrong, you still have to scold me. Since you are pregnant, you are not allowed to drive anymore."

"Ah!" She said anxiously, "Then what should I do if I play mahjong?"

"You invite a friend to come to your house to make a call."

I am going to be a father!This is a...a wonderful feeling, half joy and half apprehension, and the responsibility on the shoulders seems to be heavier.I should have the self-awareness of being a father, I will be a new me, right?Did Xiao Yi feel the same way when he had a child?

I can't blame him, even though I was in so much pain when he had kids.It's not his fault that he doesn't understand me and can't reciprocate my feelings, nor should I blame him.Feelings cannot be forced, and unilateral efforts may not necessarily be rewarded.Maybe, I can let go of my obsession with him, and we can regain our friendship and be friends again?I'm going to be a father soon, I should be able to let it go, I should be able to...

When I was filming with Xiao Er and Ah Sheng, I really wanted to ask about Xiao Yi and how he was doing, but every time I couldn’t open my mouth.I know he made a Kung Fu comedy film directed by Ah Zhi, and he seems to be in good shape.He has a talent for comedy, which is very suitable for comedy.But later I saw magazine reports that he went to film a TV series.Why do you want to make a TV series?In our minds, the TV circle is a level lower than the film circle, why did Xiao Yi downgrade to make TV dramas?Or a supporting role?

When the TV series "Heroes" aired, I finally saw him again. "There are bandits and gentlemen, who are as sharp as cutting, as sharp as grinding; as gold as tin, as precious as jade." Zeng Jing played by him is suave, resourceful, and has the demeanor of a national scholar.When he waved the folding fan calmly and lightly, it reminded me of the prodigal son in "The Duel".It's the kind of flamboyance that I've always wanted to imitate.He also taught me how to swing a fan, but his demeanor is natural, how can I learn it?Now he is more restrained and gentle than the prodigal son.The further the plot goes, the more depressed it becomes.He yearns for a woman deeply, but that woman already has her own heart and only regards him as a close friend.All kinds of tenderness can't be expressed, can't be expressed, thousands of strands of love are cut continuously, reason is still chaotic, people are haggard because of Yixiao, and they only end up "alone and desolate, people don't ask".

Xiao Yi, do you know?You can't love others, and I treat you the same way!Have you experienced such pain now?

Even though I knew he was just acting, his sickness, his forbearance, his madness and despair still made my heart ache.I know very well the suffering of "not being able to love", one person is enough to suffer, and I don't want to see you suffer too, even if you are just acting.

I would love to see him.Seeing his cheerful appearance made me feel at ease.

Immediately after "Heroes" was broadcast, it became popular in the entire aviation city, and the ratings were very high.The "Zeng Jing" played by Xiao Yi is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and talked about by countless people.Zhao's company is planning to shoot Zha Yong's martial arts novel "Book of Swords", with me as the leading role, and someone proposed to invite Xiao Yi to play an important supporting role in the film, which is similar to Zeng Jing's temperament.I agreed.Although I have said that I will no longer cooperate with him, this time, I want to make sure that he is fine, and I want to make sure that I have let him go.If we can be friends again, everyone should be happy, right?

Lei Yi

Zhao's company asked me to shoot "Book of Swords", and Ajie actually agreed!He... is willing to cooperate with me?He is willing to see me?When I heard this news, I couldn't believe it was true. For several days, I thought I was in a dream.

The film is still in the planning process, and I am anxiously waiting for the day when the filming will start.You can see him, you can finally see him!What should I say when I see him?Should I ask him "how are you?"

Not long after, I suddenly saw a magazine report: Ajie has a child, and Su Anran gave birth to a son for him! "The whole family revolves around the child. Grandma, grandma, babysitter, auntie... people keep hugging him, raising him so delicate that he is only willing to sleep when adults hug him. The first thing Jiege does when he wakes up every morning is Watching the child, talking to him, and buying a lot of toys and diapers for him, but he dared not hold the child, saying that the child’s bones are soft and his hands are strong, for fear of hurting him.” In the magazine, Ajie carefully said Holding her newborn son, Su Anran snuggled up beside him, and the faces of the whole family were filled with happiness and satisfaction.

What should I say the first time I see him?Congratulations to him...has a son?When Xiaonan was born, Ajie congratulated me; now, I should congratulate him too, right?The child in the photo is a person who is really connected to him, and I have played his younger brother many times, but in the final analysis...just an outsider!

He is now... very happy!Can you say anything more?Having said that, does it still make sense?

While filming outside, I received a phone call from home: Yushan had a broken bone.She fell off a high stool while cleaning the house and broke her right leg.I hurried home and saw Yushan lying on the bed with a plaster cast.

"The accident that happened a few days ago, why did you tell me now?" I was a little angry. I called two days ago, and my family kept it from me, so I didn't notice the difference.

"I don't want to interfere with your filming!" Yu Shan put the book in her hand on the bedside table: "Xiao Nan is temporarily handed over to my mother. I can't move now, and the maid said it would be very difficult for me to go to the bathroom or take a shower."

"My role is over, I can take care of you at home." I took off my coat, rolled up my sleeves and said, "What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

"No need. I'm almost a waste now, you can go out to find women, I don't mind!" She casually picked up the teacup on the bedside table and put it to her lips, but she didn't drink it, she just blew on it slowly Floating heat.

"What did you say?" I was surprised.

"Go find other women, I won't stop you."

I was very angry, but there was nothing I could do about her.She is a wounded patient now, and I can't get angry at a wounded patient.No matter what she said inexplicably, yin and yang, I had no choice but to turn a deaf ear and take care of her with all my heart.

When the preparations for "Book of Swords" were completed and the filming period was about to start, the news that Ajie and I co-starred was kicked out by the media, and the media made a lot of reports in the newspapers:

"The former 'twins' resolved their conflicts and once again joined hands in martial arts movies."

"Lei Yi, who has been reduced to a TV drama supporting role, bowed his head and asked his old friends for help in order to return to the film industry."

"Lei Yi snatched Feng Xiangjie's role in "Allure" back then, Feng Xiangjie ignored the past, and was still willing to take care of his old friend."

"The over-the-top movie star used to be so popular, but now no one cares about him, he can only rely on hugging his friends to get on the throne."

"Lei Yi, the down-and-out film king, clings to the popular star Feng Xiangjie. Back then, he suppressed him everywhere, but now he has the audacity to flatter him."

I am very aware of the bad habits of the media and the red top and white, but it just happened to me, and I still can't stand it.I proposed to Zhao's company to resign from "Shu Jian Lu".

That's good, I don't need to congratulate Ajie anymore on his happy birthday.Maybe... I'm still too stingy...

When I fell into confusion again, Azhi ran over to cheer me up:

"Cheer up! You obviously have such a good acting talent, it's a pity not to make good use of it! Come and join us at Xin Yicheng. We are planning to shoot a comedy fashion ghost movie "Little Life is Scared of Ghosts" recently. You come to participate play?"

In fact, I couldn't get up the energy to shoot comedies, and I wasn't even interested in any performances, but Ah Zhi was soft and stubborn, and I couldn't refuse his kindness, so I agreed to him.

"Look at you now, you have a sullen face all day long, as serious as a door god. I recommended you to make comedies to those colleagues in the company, and many people didn't believe that you could act. Alas, how crazy we brothers were before! If you really don’t want to act, you can also try being a director.”

Azhi's words touched me.Yes, I can be a director to make a movie and make a story in my heart.Back then, the first script I wrote, the story of A Jiang and A Tan, was rejected by Director Zhang.Now, I can try again, try...to take pictures of what I can't say.Maybe I should cheer up and stop being so negative.

I told Er Ge and Xiao Er that I wanted to be a director, and they were very supportive.Like many friends, we three brothers partnered to form a film company.The company's first film is still a comedy for the market.If I can succeed, I can accumulate capital and gain a firm foothold, and I can make the movies I want to make.The company's first play was directed and acted by myself, my second brother assisted in the performance, and Ah Zhi played in friendship.Xiao Er volunteered to be an editor. He said that he had made too many Gu Long's films and had a lot of complaints, so he wanted to spoof Gu Long's films and comicize the characters and plots in Gu Long's films, including Ajie and The role played by Ah Sheng.

When I saw the portrait of Li Tanhua played by Ajie during the filming, I was full of worries.He is willing to see me now, but why should I go to him?What can you say when you see him?

In the movie, Li Tanhua's apprentice was not interested in high-ranking officials and high salary, but instead said to me: "I want to be a knight-errant with you!"

"I'm no longer a ranger!" I smiled wryly.

That smiling ranger, that happy boy, is no longer here...

The author has something to say:

Some songs require a lot of experience to understand the deep meaning in the lyrics. In 1981, "Big Heroes", "Book and Sword Enmity Record", "Owl" in 1982, "Little People Are Scared"
