Blooming on the ground

=====================

Leaving the group the next day, Cheng Min was hangover and couldn't get up to see him off, but he still asked his camera assistant to bring a gift.

Fang Mufeng took it apart and saw that it was a photo captured by Cheng Min during the filming. Each photo was carefully selected by him from a bunch of photos, and it was very textured.It was the first time to work with Cheng Min, and he also received a similar farewell gift on the day of the finale.

There is a note in the photo, written in Cheng Min's handwriting, "As a reward for me, I will be my photography model later, I have an appointment."

Fang Mufeng smiled and put the note and photo away.

Luo Tian drove him back to take him back, and when he saw someone, he said why he lost weight again and was sick.

Because he lay in the snow for more than half an hour yesterday, and he didn't have a good rest during this time, Fang Mufeng caught a cold, and he woke up this morning with a stuffy nose and a sore throat.

"It's okay, just sleep for a few days." He blew his nose and spoke in a heavy nasal voice.

While starting the engine, Luo Tian said, "I'm ill with a doctor, I'll take you to the hospital for an injection later, and then rest for a few days. Sister Lan has been busy for the past few days, so she probably won't be able to summon us so soon."

Fang Mufeng nodded absently before he came out of the play completely.

Luo Tian looked at him through the rear mirror of the car, and suddenly asked in a tentative tone: "By the way, what kind of person is Yan Dayingdi? He has never seen a real person..."

Fang Mufeng was still in a trance, and upon hearing the words, he couldn't help recalling those sticky intimate scenes, as well as all kinds of tenderness that seemed unreal.

Yan Huanchao is a beauty, a good person, and a bad person, but it's hard to tell what kind of person he is.

After a long time, he replied with a sense of loss, "I don't know either."

Luo Tian saw it in his eyes, and was speechless for a moment, feeling really delicate.

After more than a month, Sheng Lan finally had time to meet Fang Mufeng.

As soon as Sheng Lan came up, he asked him how he was doing recently, and even went to see a psychiatrist and took sleeping pills.

It was known that Luo Tian was tipping off the news.

Fang Mufeng acquiesced, and said lightly that he was adjusting his state to play, and the adjustment has been much better after this period of time.He was telling the truth. Although the state was really bad before, he has slowly recovered his breath these days.

Sheng Lan was dubious, but seeing Fang Mufeng's calm face, he didn't seem to be hiding anything, so he turned to talk about Feng Qiang.

She said that with a team of lawyers following her, it was inevitable that Feng Qiang would sit for ten or eight years, and after he came out, there would be a way to shut him up completely. All in all, there was no need to worry anymore.

"As for the woman who beat you that day..." Sheng Lan glanced at him and hesitated.

Fang Mufeng stated openly: "My mother."

Sheng Lan originally wanted to take care of his emotions, but when she saw his attitude, she was worrying too much. She continued: "Your mother, Ms. Qiu, is not very emotionally stable. I have already asked someone to watch. Do you want to talk to her?" one time?"

Fang Mufeng looked calm: "There's nothing to talk about, that's all."

Sheng Lan respected his wishes, simply ended the topic, and then mentioned another matter, saying that there was an audition in two weeks.

"What movie?"

"The tentative title of the film is "Late Spring", directed by Gao Linyuan, lacking a supporting actor."

Fang Mufeng was surprised: "Gao Linyuan?"

The last time I met Gao Linyuan in a restaurant, when Yan Huanchao offered to recommend it, Gao Linyuan couldn't deny it. I didn't expect this follow-up.

"Yes," Sheng Lan said, "He is notoriously picky and strict and has a bad temper. Just for this supporting role, I tried a lot of young actors, but I couldn't find a suitable one."

Fang Mufeng had heard of Gao Linyuan's temper as big as his name in his previous life, and the senior director didn't think much of Xiao Xianrou. He once criticized young actors in the media for being unprofessional and incompetent.

Fang Mufeng was looking forward to getting such an opportunity, but he was not afraid of being scolded bloody.

He resolutely agreed, but Sheng Lan had some concerns: "The opportunity is very good, but are you sure about your state?"

"Of course, no one thinks there are too few good opportunities." He said.

Sheng Lan has always put the artist's wishes first, she paused: "Okay, I'll make arrangements for you."

After coming out of Sheng Lan's office, Fang Mufeng took out his mobile phone and found Yan Huanchao's number in the address book.This time Gao Linyuan was willing to let him audition, and Yan Huanchao must have helped him.

Since that reckless call late at night, he and Yan Huanchao have not been in touch again.

After thinking about it again and again, Fang Mufeng still didn't make the call, and put the phone back in his pocket.

Gao Linyuan's style is completely different from Peng Wenye's and Xuannian's. He follows a realistic style. The stories he focuses on are close to society, life and human nature. The overall film texture is rough and full of power.

Fang Mufeng learned from Gao Linyuan that the character to be auditioned this time is a mentally handicapped teenager, but that's all he knows, and he doesn't know anything about the plot.His past life impression of this film is limited to the fact that he later won many awards abroad and caused heated discussions in the domestic media.

He has never been in contact with people with intellectual disabilities, and he believes that imagination cannot make up for the lack of life experience. After carefully reviewing a bunch of text and video materials, he decided to contact them in person.

Sheng Lan quickly arranged for a special school, and Fang Mufeng prepared small gifts for the children in advance, and spent nearly a week here sinking his heart into it.

With the help of special education teachers, he integrated into it as a volunteer and got close contact with this group of mentally handicapped children. He ate, danced, made handicrafts, and played games with them every day. During the process, he also silently observed and Mimic their looks, movements and habits.

When he returned to his residence at night, he summed up and digested the details he observed during the day. After careful consideration, he conceived and designed a rough character image and behavior habits in his heart, and the originally vague characters gradually became real.

For him, playing a character means empathy and empathy, accepting and believing in the real existence of the character, and being ready to break himself at any time, reshape and stuff it into the mold of another character.For example, half a month ago he had just finished playing the down-and-out North Piao youth, and this time he was going to play a mentally handicapped teenager.

In the past few days, when Fang Mufeng checked the information, he accidentally saw a push, which was an interview with Yan Huanchao a long time ago.Film King Yan rarely receives in-depth interviews, and this is the only time he has seen them in his memory.

In this interview, the host asked him the most impressive thing in his acting career.

Yan Huanchao thought for a moment, and didn't mention which big directors he had worked with, nor did he mention the many honors he had gained, but mentioned a small incident not long after he entered the industry.

He said that after his debut work became famous, he received a flood of praise. He couldn't hear the real voice, thinking that he was really talented, so he slacked off in acting.Until he confidently acted as a surgeon in the acting class, the teacher at his alma mater saw it and didn't comment. He just took him to the hospital for observation for a long time, and then he suddenly realized that he was acting out of nothing.

Yan Huanchao told the host that to this day he still remembers the shame that came with covering his face because he treated the performance casually.

"To perfectly reproduce the character's language, posture and way of thinking, and to convince the audience that you are real, you have to work hard and delve into it," he said.

Fang Mufeng took it for granted. To a certain extent, Yan Huanchao had similar views with him on acting, and also gave him a lot of inspiration both tangible and intangible.

The audition for "Late Spring" was arranged at Dongbo Film and Television, one of the producers of this film. This time, Sheng Lan personally took Fang Mufeng there. It can be seen that she also attaches great importance to this opportunity and cooperation partners.

Following Sheng Lan into the audition room, Fang Mufeng saw a lot of familiar faces, including Gao Linyuan's right-hand man Li Jiaping, and a few unfamiliar faces who were presumably also members of the creative team.

Sheng Lan knew them all, she smiled and shook hands with them, and gave them Fang Mufeng.

Li Jiaping has worked with Gao Linyuan for many years, and has been serving as an assistant director and editor.He looked at Fang Mufeng with a smile, and said in a friendly tone, "I've seen Director Peng's movie, and you performed well in it, so relax in the audition later."

Fang Mufeng thanked Li Jiaping for his encouragement, with a docile appearance.

As soon as the words fell, Gao Linyuan pushed the door in hastily, sat down in the most conspicuous position, avoided all social steps, and cut straight to the point: "Let's get started."

Gao Linyuan was unsmiling and full of momentum, and the group of people suddenly fell silent. Sheng Lan couldn't help but glance at Fang Mufeng after sitting down.

After sitting down, Li Jiaping winked at someone to pass the script to Fang Mufeng, but Gao Linyuan raised his hand to stop him. Mentally disabled teenager, now that your mother who has been with you for many years is dead, try to act."

When looking for suitable candidates for roles, directors will use various methods to facilitate their observation of actors.In this non-physical performance of the set scene, Fang Mufeng had to believe in the existence of the characters and the plot first, and secondly, he had to convince the people present through the performance, mainly to test whether he had the ability to control the characters.

Fang Mufeng took a deep breath and quickly entered the state.He stood there, looked down slightly, dodged his eyes, raised his fingers with his left hand to make a weird gesture, and quickly poked his nose.

Gao Linyuan was still watching expressionlessly with his hands folded on his chest, but now he sat up slightly - but within a few seconds, the child's eyes and posture immediately changed.

Fang Mufeng took two steps forward, his eyes suddenly lit up, and everyone instantly understood what he saw.

He tilted his neck slightly, showing a childlike smile, and his tone of voice was completely different from his usual state. He said to the air wall: "Mom, you are lazy on the bed, are you playing a game, get up soon."

After speaking, he wiped his nose again with that strange gesture, and grinned, showing his white teeth.The second time this action is used, it seems to be a habit he designed intentionally for this role.

The non-existent mother did not respond, and Fang Mufeng called "Mom" again and again. Every time he shouted, his expression changed slightly, layer by layer, and the panic and bewilderment became more and more floating on his face.

Seeing that "mother" still didn't respond, he was obviously a little anxious, and couldn't understand the current situation. He raised his hand and scratched his head in distress and confusion, turned around, and said indistinctly, "No Wake up after playing."

After receiving no response again, Fang Mufeng stepped forward and knelt on the ground and made a pushing motion. He should have pushed the person on the bed. The ups and downs became more and more violent, until suddenly he shouted: "Stop playing, stop playing! Get up!"

He stiffened his neck and gasped for breath, his expression was painful, his cheeks were flushed, and he let out a strange and terrifying growl from his throat. He raised one hand as if he was pinching the bed sheet or "mother's" clothes, and the back of his hand was full of knuckles.Others could immediately see the turmoil in his heart at the moment and he didn't know how to vent his emotions. The little beast lacking human reason could only whimper helplessly after losing a loved one.

"Okay, take it." Gao Linyuan clapped his palms and interrupted.

Fang Mufeng's tears ran down his cheeks with this sound, and he knelt on the ground for a few seconds before slowly getting up.

Li Jiaping looked at Fang Mufeng, then turned to the stern-faced Gao Linyuan, and said tentatively, "Director Gao, look?"

Gao Linyuan looked at Fang Mufeng with his eyes, and noticed that the other party was still in emotion, after a long while, he said calmly, "Go back first, and follow-up notice."
