Traitor

Although the TV series version of "Grand Thief VS Famous Arrest" was successful, it was mostly due to the personal charm of the three actors Liu Hengpei, Yin Moli, and Zhou Yuanzhi. The plot itself was actually not complicated.But the movie version is different. Zhang Qiqi is good at creating suspenseful themes with tense and exciting atmosphere, magnificent scenes, and interlocking plots. Gao Fang also intends to take this opportunity to have a good time because he has been on the small screen for too long. "Play".In this way, the role of Ling Sufeng as the villain has doubled in weight.He must alone bear the energy to contend with Fangzheng, Yin Xie, and Jiang Sanquan. On the other hand, because Ling Sufeng is still a supporting role, there are not many direct roles, which requires Ling Sufeng's actor must Intense enough brilliance to bloom in a short period of time.

When they first got the script, everyone was guessing who would play Ling Sufeng. After discussion between Fengxing and Tiancheng, it was decided to use Wu Guohua, a well-known Mesozoic actor in the circle.Although Wu Guohua is relatively older, he has rich acting experience, and he is qualified for this role in terms of acting skills and aura. However, when the crew was formally formed, Liu Hengche was replaced.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Zhou Yuanzhi turned sideways and asked.

Liu Hengche explained softly: "Because it was indeed decided this morning."

Wu Guohua was unable to withdraw due to personal affairs, and Liu Hengche was temporarily replaced in the role of Ling Sufeng. Zhang Qiqi will moderately adjust the plot of Ling Sufeng's part.At the meeting, the specific shooting plan and precautions were communicated, and the entire crew decided to set off for the Biluo Mountain Scenic Area, the location of the location, to shoot in three days.

When they walked out of the conference room, Liu Hengche and Liu Hengpei happened to be in front of each other.The staff dispersed, and the two of them stood opposite each other in the corridor. The two men with similar heights and faces made the onlookers feel like they were looking in a mirror.

"I didn't expect to meet so soon." There was no malice in Liu Hengpei's tone, but there was hostility.

Liu Hengche smiled: "I said it in the parking lot back then, we will meet on the same stage sooner or later."

"It's a pity that Ling Sufeng's role is still a little less, and I can't compete with you." Liu Hengpei could hear regret in his tone.

"The opportunity will come sooner or later."

"Marvelous, we should go." Liu Hengpei's manager whispered beside him.

Liu Hengpei nodded at Zhou Yuanzhi and Yin Moli: "Let's go first, see you then."

Liu Hengche watched his own brother leave, and Sister Ping waited for Liu Hengpei to go away and said softly: "Mr. Liu, we should go too, the people on the radio station are still waiting for you to be on the show." A little dissatisfied, it seems that she doesn't particularly approve of taking over the role of Ling Sufeng.

"Okay." Liu Hengche put his hand on Zhou Yuanzhi's shoulder, bowed his head and said, "Come to me at night." Before Zhou Yuanzhi could answer, he raised his head and smiled at Du Ruo and Yin Moli who were waiting beside him, "Mo Li, Miss Du, see you later." Followed Sister Ping and left.

Zhou Yuanzhi was a little embarrassed, turned around and saw Yin Moli standing aside with folded arms, with a playful expression on his face.

"Go," he said.

Yin Moli smiled, but didn't say anything.

Zhou Yuanzhi and Yin Moli followed to a studio booked by a magazine to shoot a group of promotional photos.The relationship between the two of them is very good, and it is now well known to the public. The two have collaborated in many works and often appear together. Before that, some media made a special topic, and for the first time proposed that Zhou Yuanzhi is Yin Moli's royal green leaf. a statement.Of course, this is also a result of Tiancheng's public relations efforts. Yin Moli is powerful and famous, but his reputation in private life is too bad in the past, while Zhou Yuanzhi is powerful but not famous. After his debut, his public image is very good. A complementary publicity effect was formed, and the close relationship between Zhou Yuanzhi and Liu Hengche indirectly magnified this effect, which was an unexpected gain of Tiancheng.

Zhou Yuanzhi and Yin Moli spent most of the day filming together, and it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon when the filming was completed.Zhou Yuanzhi was a little dizzy when he walked out of the studio. Compared with Yin Moli's ease in front of the camera, Zhou Yuanzhi, who is obviously not stiff in front of the camera, is really troubled by the camera.

The people from the magazine sent them downstairs before thanking them and leaving. Zhou Yuanzhi was about to get in the car and leave when he saw a figure flashing past in the teahouse beside him. Zhou Yuanzhi was stunned for a moment and said to Du Ruo: "You guys Let's go first, I can go home by myself." Without waiting for their answer, they followed.

Zhou Yuanzhi has very good eyesight, and after catching up, he found that the person sitting in the teahouse was Zhao Youqing.He sat alone in a quiet corner, and he didn't seem to be waiting for anyone, just took out a notebook and wrote something.At this time, Zhou Yuanzhi didn't care about being abrupt anymore, he walked up and asked, "I'm sorry to bother you, can I talk to you, Director Zhao?"

Zhao Youqing was stunned for a moment when someone called out his name, but he didn't seem too surprised when he saw that it was Zhou Yuanzhi. He raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation: "Sit down."

Zhou Yuanzhi came to him out of impulse, Zhao Youqing really made him sit down, but he was a little nervous again.In the past, he had also heard that a certain actor went directly to the director to recommend himself in order to get a certain role, but Zhou Yuanzhi had never done such a thing.

"What do you want to drink?" Zhao Youqing called the waiter and handed over a menu.

"Uh, you're welcome, I just have a few words and leave."

"It's as good as mine." Zhao Youqing made a decision, the waiter quickly brought a cup of Longjing, and Zhou Yuanzhi took it nervously.

"Thank you. Director Zhao, I... Let me introduce myself first."

"Zhou Yuanzhi, right? I know you." Zhao Youqing said, "I have seen your play, and I know that you and Liu Hengche have a good relationship." For some reason, Zhou Yuanzhi felt that Zhao Youqing's "very good" two There is a deep meaning in this word.

"I'm sorry to disturb you, I just wanted to ask about Ah Che." Zhou Yuanzhi saw that Zhao Youqing was listening carefully and didn't interrupt him, so he continued boldly, "I heard that you met him a few days ago Sometimes I pointed out that there are some problems with his current acting method, but we really can't figure it out, I thought, could you please give me some clear pointers?"

Zhao Youqing smiled slightly and said, "In what capacity are you asking me this question now?"

Zhou Yuanzhi didn't expect Zhao Youqing to throw out such a sentence, he stayed where he was for a while, and then carefully replied: "I...I see Ache as my younger brother..." Facing Zhao Youqing's eyes, Zhou Yuanzhi couldn't help I know how to find this sentence difficult to say with confidence.

"Let me ask you again, since it's his question, why didn't he ask me himself, and asked you to ask?"

"He didn't entrust me, it was me..."

"Don't you think you're taking too much control?"

Zhou Yuanzhi froze all of a sudden, Zhao Youqing looked kindly, and was speaking with a smile at the moment, but this sentence was really very blunt.

"I'm sorry." Zhou Yuanzhi apologized, took a deep breath and said, "But I still want to know what's going on. Director Zhao, you should know how much Ah Che values ​​your opinion. To him, you are a mentor, but you What I said before is really…”

"Heavy? Too much?" Zhao Youqing shrugged, "I ask you, if he doesn't even understand what I'm telling him, how can he continue to act? If he can't even understand the problems that exist in himself, How do you go on in the future? Of course, I can tell him directly what problems you have, but is this useful? Which actor doesn’t find his way out by himself, and how long can he go so far with the help of others?”

Zhou Yuanzhi was stunned by Zhao Youqing's words: "He..."

"Let's be honest, Zhou Yuanzhi," Zhao Youqing said, "I really value Liu Hengche. His talent is not very high, but his ability to learn and comprehend is amazing, but because of this, he is easily influenced by others, which makes him The acting style is extremely unstable."

"You mean Ning Haowei has my shadow?" Zhou Yuanzhi asked tentatively.

"You can see it too." Zhao Youqing said, "but you only saw part of it, and you don't know how bad the impact of this incident is." Zhao Youqing thought for a while and said, "Zhou Yuanzhi, since you have acted in "Ning Yun ", you should know about Zhang Ye."

Zhou Yuanzhi remembered that Zhang Ye was a friend of Du Wansheng when he was young, played by Yin Moli.That talented actor chose to end his life with a light jump at the peak of his career. Thirty years have passed, and even Du Wansheng doesn't know why he chose to die in the first place.

"Zhang Ye and I are friends." Zhao Youqing said, "and Liu Hengche is too, too similar to him."

Zhou Yuanzhi was taken aback: "Ache and Mr. Zhang?"

"The two of them are so similar. When I saw Liu Hengche for the first time, I thought Zhang Ye had come back to life." Zhao Youqing said, with tears in the corners of his eyes, "Sorry." He said, closing his eyes gently. I closed my eyes.

"I have collaborated with Zhang Ye in many works, and his death brought me a great blow." Zhao Youqing sighed infinitely, and the shadow of Zhang Ye's death seemed to never go away.

"Why did Mr. Zhang choose to die in the first place?"

"Why?" Zhao Youqing looked at Zhou Yuanzhi, "Because he lost the most basic thing of being an actor." He said, "I ask you, why do you want to be an actor?"

Du Wansheng also asked Zhou Yuanzhi this question during the internal test screening of "Xing Yun". Although he didn't understand why Zhao Youqing would ask himself this question at this time, Zhou Yuanzhi still answered honestly: "I can't explain the big truth. I just like acting, and I don’t know what else to do besides being an actor.”

Zhao Youqing nodded: "You are a good actor. This is what Zhang Ye lost."

"Director Zhao means..."

"The original intention of being an actor. Before Zhang Ye committed suicide, he had been troubled by this problem. At that time, he no longer knew why he acted, but acting was indeed his spiritual pillar and the meaning of life, so when this pillar When he collapses, his whole body also collapses."

"Do you know why he suddenly lost the meaning of acting?" Zhao Youqing asked again.

"……Why?"

"Because he unknowingly put the meaning of his acting in the wrong place, and that place disappeared later." Zhao Youqing said, "Zhou Yuanzhi, I also tell you this sentence, think about it yourself, and then go back and ask Ask Liu Hengche this question."

***

As soon as Liu Hengche got home, he smelled the aroma of food coming from the kitchen, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.No matter how tired and hard he is, when he returns home and sees Zhou Yuanzhi, he feels at ease and at ease.

He walked into the kitchen, Zhou Yuanzhi was cooking in an apron.Two dishes have already been prepared on the plate, and they are so delicious in color and fragrance that people can't help but twitch their index fingers after seeing them.

"I'm back." Liu Hengche said, walked over to put Zhou Yuanzhi in his arms and kissed him on the cheek.

"Oh, you go to the living room and have a meeting first, it will be fine soon." Zhou Yuanzhi said.Liu Hengche felt that there was something wrong with his Yuanzhi, but he couldn't tell why.

"What's wrong with you today?"

"What?" Zhou Yuanzhi hurriedly replied, the green vegetables in his hand made a "stinging" sound when they fell into the oil pan, and he quickly stir-fried them with a shovel.

"It's nothing." Liu Hengche thought that maybe he was overthinking, and took out the prepared dishes.

It is already mid-April, the weather is warm and the flowers are in full bloom.Liu Hengche dragged the table to the balcony and opened the floor-to-ceiling windows to let the spring breeze blow.Zhou Yuanzhi prepared two more dishes and served them out. Finally, there was a pot of delicious crucian carp tofu soup.

"Is work going well today?"

"Very good." Liu Hengche smiled and took the job bowl from Zhou Yuanzhi, and pulled him to sit beside him.

"What happened to Ling Sufeng?"

"Just as I told you, your President Du called me last night and hoped that I would take this role. I discussed it with the company this morning and decided to follow up."

"I think Sister Ping doesn't agree with you taking this role." Zhou Yuanzhi asked tentatively.

"Well, indeed." Liu Hengche said, "She thinks this role is not very cost-effective, but it will take up more of my time, and she is also a little worried that I will be stereotyped."

Zhou Yuanzhi thought, Zhang Manping was right to be worried, and now Liu Hengche should consider finding a better book and play a leading role.

"Then why did you still take it?"

"For you."

Zhou Yuanzhi thought "Hey!", and stopped his chopsticks unconsciously.

"Who told you, Yin Moli and Xiao Pei to go out for so long and leave me here alone."

"that's it?"

Liu Hengche heard the strangeness in Zhou Yuanzhi's words, looked up at Zhou Yuanzhi, and found that his expression was very serious, after thinking about it, he added obediently: "No, you know I'm not a person who treats work like a joke, I thought, since Director Zhao thinks there is a big gap between me and Xiaopei, I might as well go and experience the gap between the two of us for myself, and the difference will be clearer when we put them together, and we can win every battle if we know ourselves and our enemy!"

Zhou Yuanzhi knew that Liu Hengche wasn't lying, but what he said just now wasn't a lie either.

What Zhao Youqing said was probably right, his influence on Liu Hengche had unknowingly permeated into Liu Hengche's foundation as an actor.Zhou Yuanzhi suddenly became flustered, but Liu Hengche was not like this.When he first debuted, even when they first met, the reason why Liu Hengche became an actor, Liu Hengche, all his efforts were motivated by his obsession with acting, but now?

"Ache," he asked weakly, "why...why do you want to be an actor?"

"Huh?" Liu Hengche was stunned for a moment, "Why do you ask this suddenly?"

Zhou Yuanzhi didn't know how to answer, he didn't want to tell what Zhao Youqing had said, he knew that Liu Hengche respected Zhao Youqing very much.

"I see, you are worried that I will take Xiao Pei's matter too seriously and affect yourself, right?" Liu Hengche thought of going in another direction, "Don't worry, I didn't come back for him I used to like acting very much, so I did not hesitate to break up with my family and venture into this world. After what happened, I felt that this circle was too cold and wanted to give up. In the end, it was because of you that I persisted. "

Liu Hengche recalled his most difficult time, and now he still feels it is vivid and deep in his bones when he thinks about it, so he didn't notice Zhou Yuanzhi's ugly face at all.

"As I said, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be where I am today. You don't know how anxious I was after you signed Tiancheng at that time. I just thought that no matter what, I would return to this stage as soon as possible. Because I want to catch up with you and stand in the same place as you!"

"What if one day I stop acting?" Zhou Yuanzhi asked softly.

Liu Hengche was taken aback for a moment: "What's the matter? Why did you suddenly ask this question?"

"Just asking casually." Zhou Yuanzhi said, "There are always variables in the future. Who can say it right?"

Liu Hengche put down his job: "I see, you are worried about us coming out, right?" He reached out and touched Zhou Yuanzhi's face, "Don't think so much, let's take this matter slowly. If There really is a day when others can't accept the relationship between the two of us and don't let us stay in this circle anymore, I don't care, where can't we live, as long as you are by my side."

Zhou Yuanzhi's hands trembled, and he dropped his rice bowl to the ground.

What Zhao Youqing said was right, Zhou Yuanzhi thought, things were more terrifying than he had ever imagined.He was not a stumbling block on Liu Hengche's progress, but he ruined the actor Liu Hengche from his acting skills to the foundation of being an actor.
