Reborn as King [Entertainment]

Knowing that her son's boyfriend is Lu Ming in the TV series "The Great Desolation", Li Yue's parents drank iced sour plum soup with Dog Days, not to mention how happy they were.

After welcoming the two children to the living room and sitting down, Li Yue's parents began to ask around Fei Ran, and the questions mainly focused on: Was filming hard work?The human race was driven to the old capital in the third season so badly, can they be killed in the fourth season?Can Lu Ming and the heroine Lie Lan continue their relationship?It's a pity that the young man in Fufeng died... what?The young man who played Fufeng framed others to steal the role and was taken care of by the financial master?The morality is so corrupt, so don't resurrect it.

Li Yue sat alone on the double sofa on one side, watching his parents sandwiching Fei Ran from left to right, and usually whenever he came home, he would definitely hold the soup bowl and ask him to drink a bowl of stomach nourishing soup at the first time Aunt Luo, the nanny, also stands behind the sofa and inserts a sentence or two from time to time. Listening to the familiar tone, she often reads entertainment gossip headlines.

Seeing that Feiran was about to be overwhelmed, Li Yue stopped the middle-aged and elderly audience's star-chasing behavior in time: "Dad, Mom, let's chat after dinner, Feiran didn't eat breakfast this morning."

"Ah? Why didn't you eat breakfast! You child, you are so amazing that you didn't eat breakfast, why didn't you tell me earlier! Aunt Luo, is the food ready? Let's have dinner, and I'll help you." Ms. Yao Mingyue hurriedly Standing up, he went into the kitchen with Aunt Luo, and before getting up, he gave Li Yue a look, expressing the meaning of "this kid gets older and less sensible" vividly.

A few minutes later, the five of them sat around the dining table. Li Yue's parents even opened a bottle of red wine with great interest, and the family had a happy lunch.During this period, Feiran felt for the first time the power of "Mom and Dad think you are not full", and there is no need to move the chopsticks by himself, the bowl will always be full.Fei Ran, who didn't know how to refuse and was unwilling to refuse, ate two bowls of rice with all his might, and in the end was struggling to walk.

Finally escaping the painful experience of being stuffed with food, Li Yue was amused and distressed watching it, and finally took Fei Ran who wanted to go into the kitchen to help clean up, and walked in the back garden of the villa to digest food.

But after walking a few steps, Feiran felt the food in his stomach reached his throat, and he would risk vomiting every step he took, so Li Yue had no choice but to take him back to his room and let Feiran sleep on the bed. Then sit on the edge of the bed and help him gently massage his stomach.

While enjoying her boyfriend's meticulous care, Fei Ran curiously looked at the layout of the room.After looking around, he asked, "Isn't this the room you lived in since childhood?" There was no trace of a child at all, it was all Li Yue's preference as an adult.

Li Yue nodded and said with a smile: "This villa was bought by my second uncle ten years ago. Before that, our family lived in the house shared by my parents' unit. Now they both still live there when they are busy. So this Actually, I don’t have many things, they are all in the old house in the city, if you are interested, I will take you there next time to have a look.”

Fei Ran originally regretted not being able to see the life trajectory of Li Yue when he was a child, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, he immediately nodded and said, "Okay."

The two of them rubbed their stomachs and chatted casually. After a few minutes, Fei Ran, who felt a little better in his stomach, fell asleep under the gentle and rhythmic comfort.

Li Yue looked at his daughter-in-law's lovely sleeping face when she was sleeping, couldn't help but leaned down and kissed her slightly parted thin lips, then pulled the quilt and went downstairs.It happened that his father took out the Go game and was about to play the game record. Seeing him going downstairs alone, he asked, "Where's Fei Ran?"

"Falling asleep," Li Yue said, walking to his father's side, raised his eyebrows, "What's the point of playing chess, let's play a game?"

Li Yang beamed with joy: "Come, come!"

Yao Mingyue watched the father and son play chess, made them a pot of tea, watched the battle for a while, and then went upstairs.

Feiran was not in the habit of taking a nap, so he didn't get up after sleeping for a long time.After being dazed for a while as usual, Feiran put on the clothes she took off before lying down, and walked out of the room.Just when he was about to go downstairs to look for Li Yue, he was stopped by Yao Mingyue on the balcony on the second floor.

Seeing Li Yue's mother waving to him, Fei Ran, who didn't dare to refuse, walked over anxiously and called "Auntie".

Yao Mingyue leaned against the railing of the terrace, patted the place beside her, and motioned Feiran to come over, then pointed to the house on the right that was covered by dense vegetation with only a corner of the eaves exposed, and said, "That's the house of Uncle Xiao Yue's house. " Then he pointed to the back garden of the house directly opposite, "That is the house of the third uncle Xiaoyue, and the house of his fourth aunt over there. The house opposite the gate of our house is the house of the second cousin Xiaoyue. It’s his fourth cousin’s house, and the two of you will also pass by Xiao Yue’s sixth cousin and cousin’s house on the way here. In our house, except for Xiao Yue’s eldest aunt who lives in the military compound because of work, his grandfather lives in the old Outside the house, the rest of the family lived in this villa area. Even his cousin, who was an unmarriageist, was annoyed by her parents' urging to get married, and said she wanted to move out to live on her own. In the end, she settled down here. Only Xiao Yue, You live alone in the city, far away from us, do you know why?"

Feiran shook his head thoughtfully.He and Li Yue dated for a year, but they rarely talked about each other's past.This is probably because they are mature men who know that the future is more important than the past, so they are not constrained by each other's background and love history.They chatted most about movies, current affairs, and trivial matters in work and life. They shared all their feelings, opinions and feelings with each other, but rarely talked about the past.

Until now, Feiran doesn't know what Li Yue's parents do, but they only know that they are a very cute and amiable couple who are full of love for their children.

"Li Yang and I are not competent parents. We owe Xiaoyue too much." Yao Mingyue told Feiran how Liyue left home back then, and how flustered his family members were when they found out about his sexual orientation.As for Li Yue's absurd time, Yao Mingyue only vaguely mentioned it, but didn't elaborate.

"Li Yang and I have been absent from Xiaoyue's growth period for a long time, and we had almost no communication with him during his sensitive adolescence. We don't know how much pressure he accumulated because of his sexuality during that time, which forced him to escape from us. But I know that the lingering prestige of that pressure has not disappeared until now, so Xiaoyue stayed away from us. Half a month ago Xiaoyue said that he would bring her boyfriend back on New Year's Day, you don't know how happy I am."

Yao Mingyue held up Fei Ran's hand, with faint tears in his eyes: "I've always been worried that because we didn't fulfill our responsibilities at the beginning, Xiao Yue would mistakenly think that he was an alien in this family, and even lose the ability to love. Fortunately, you Appeared. Promise Auntie, no matter whether you can walk through this life hand in hand, don’t forget the sweetness at this moment. Love may gradually dissipate, but love will last forever.”

Feiran held Yao Mingyue's hand instead, and said solemnly: "I will, Auntie."

Yao Mingyue clapped Feiran's hands happily, and then they went downstairs hand in hand.In the living room, the battle between the Li family father and son was in full swing. It could be seen that Li Yue seemed to be at ease, but Li Yang was not so relaxed.Seeing that her wife was about to lose, Ms. Yao Mingyue quickly rolled up her sleeves and joined the battlefield. The male and female swords combined to kill Li Yue in an instant.

Li Yue, who had lost several chess pieces, didn't mind, and while picking up the chess pieces with his father, he asked Fei Ran, who was watching with gusto, "Will you play?"

"A little bit." When filming "Li Taibai", in order to show that Li Dashi is a great poet, there was a scene in which Li Bai broke the chess game set by the courtesan of the brothel and was able to enter the room.For this game, Fei Ran taught himself a little bit of Go, but because of time constraints, he only learned some superficial knowledge. The postures and movements are very standard, but he is not good enough to play against people.

"I'll teach you." As he spoke, Li Yue pulled Fei Ran and switched positions, letting him play chess with Li Yang, while he was guiding beside him.

So the four-handed Go showdown between Li Yao and his wife and Li Fei kicked off.

This move was played all afternoon, during which various rogue plots such as "I have no regrets about the real husband" and "I don't regret the chess before I leave the chess piece" were staged one after another. After dinner and farewell to Li's parents, Feiran still has something to say.

"Uncle and aunt are so kind..."

Li Yue couldn't help laughing at the impressive sigh: "They like you very much."

"That's because they love you, that's why they love Wu Jiwu," Fei Ran corrected, "When I go to film, you should come and see them often!"

Fei Ran's words caused Li Yue to fall into silence, and after a while, he nodded: "En."

"When I finish filming, I will come too."

"it is good."

"I'm afraid I won't be able to come back during the Spring Festival this year. When the time comes, I will buy some gifts in Xiangdao for the little pig to bring back. You can bring them to my uncle and aunt for me."

"it is good."

"Don't forget to call me on New Year's Eve."

"I won't forget."

***

Not two days after meeting his parents, Fei Ran boarded the plane to Xiangdao, and started the biggest challenge of his acting career - starring in a movie directed by Chang Ke.

Why is it a challenge to play a film directed by Chang Ke?Of course it was because of the same script as the bible.

If director Chang Ke's first version of the script was an expansion of a primary school student's composition, then the so-called final version is a bit better than the first version, and still far from the familiar script of Fei Ran.

Putting aside the lines and so on, it's just the plot that makes people incomprehensible.

The film directed by Chang Ke is tentatively titled "The Cage".It tells the daily life of a young man living in the famous "pigeon cage" house in Xiangdao.Judging from the final version of the script, the whole story can be divided into three parts.

The first part is the daily life of the hero in the "Pigeon Cage", the embarrassing living environment, and the itinerary of a walking corpse day after day, with no end and no hope in sight.

The second part said that one day, the male protagonist who got up as usual to start his day's work suddenly found himself turned into a zombie?Feiran looked confused.The hero thinks that it is good to be a zombie, there is no need to eat or drink, and life seems to be still.Just when the male protagonist felt that it was a lot more convenient to become a zombie, he discovered that everyone in the "pigeon cage" building where he lived had turned into zombies.What's even more frightening is that they want to eat people.

Seeing this, Fei Ran no longer knew what expression to put on, and could only look down with a numb face.

In the third part, the male protagonist who still has remaining humanity does not want to eat people, so he hides in his house and does not go out, but desperately finds that he is slowly turning back into a human being.In order not to be eaten, the male protagonist embarked on a great escape from the Jedi, and escaped from the "pigeon cage" through all kinds of hardships.

The characters and lines of the protagonists in the three parts are very divided. According to Fei Ran’s previous method of studying the characters, it will not work at all, because there is no transition between the three stages of the characters.In the first stage, he was still a good-for-nothing youth who got by, but in the second stage, he became a positive and good zombie?In the third stage, okay, he became Brother Cheng Long directly, and escaped from the "pigeon cage" while punching, kicking, laughing and cursing all the way.

After reading the script, Fei Ran clutched his forehead and thought for several hours——Where did he get squeezed in the first place to accept this play?

But the scenes I took on had to be finished even while crying.

In order to do a good job in character research, Fei Ran even took Yi Ming to study the script together, hoping to open the door to understand the character for himself by relying on genius tricks.

Although Yi Ming glanced at him with indescribable eyes after reading the script, and the unspoken words "Uncle Mo, are you stupid for accepting this drama?" Talented actors still gave opinions worth listening to.

"I think, since the script is so fragmented, Brother Xiao Fei, why don't you make this play into three people?"

Feiran asked in confusion: "Three people?"

"That's right, let's play them as three people with the same name and surname. Although there will be a lot of preparation work to do in this way, at least it's better than treating them as one person and acting too fragmented." Yi Ming Said.

Fei Ran nodded thoughtfully, first wrote a biography according to his own understanding, then regarded the three stages of the protagonist as three different people, and wrote biographies separately.

When Feiran was writing the biography, Yi Ming was also on the sidelines, reading the script while reading the finished biography.Looking at it, he suddenly asked: "Hey, Brother Xiao Fei, do you think that the script written by director Chang Ke is alluding to the Xiangdao movie?"

Fei Ran was stunned: "What?"

Yi Ming analyzed in a straightforward way: "Look, in the first stage, the protagonist will be prosperous next year but muddle along. He wants to pursue a better life but doesn't want to make progress. Isn't it like a Xiangdao movie that rests on its laurels? And the age of the protagonist is set to be 30 years old. , is at the peak of all aspects of life, isn't it a metaphor for the once brilliant Hong Kong movies?"

"In the second stage, the male protagonist found himself turned into a zombie. Not only was he not afraid, but he was complacent, thinking that he was very powerful, but he didn't realize that in the eyes of others, he was already a different kind. When it was the third stage, he realized that it would only be possible for him to continue like this. The male protagonist who will be eaten rose up to resist and bravely stepped out of the room that was regarded as a fortress, which also means that Xiangdao Films should welcome changes with an open attitude."

"I remember that this year's Hong Kong Island Awards had a big upset. The best actor award was awarded to mainland actor Zhao Yuze, which broke the 39-year-long Hong Kong Island Awards. The best actor must be Hong Kong. The unspoken rules of the island people. Although the selected films still have various restrictions, they at least show an open attitude... Brother Xiao Fei, what expression do you have? Am I wrong?"

Feiran wiped his face: "No, you're right, I just think... As expected of a college student, you need to look at things more deeply."

Yi Ming said solemnly: "Brother Xiaofei, have you forgotten? I'm studying Chinese."

"what?"

"As for us, what we are best at is analyzing the article to the point where even the author is confused after reading it."

"..."

Just kidding, Yi Ming's analysis gave Feiran a new way of thinking, allowing him to further improve his understanding of the role.Although there are still problems of one kind or another, and the danger of the director changing the script at any time, at least he has grasped the core content, and can respond to all changes without change.

...Even if Yi Ming really over-interpreted it, don't be afraid, all paths lead to the same goal.

In this way, Fei Ran successfully arrived in Xiangdao on the afternoon of January 1, and started shooting the film "Cage" in Xiangdao.

Feiran also stayed in the Xiangdao production team before when he was an outsider. At that time, he was impressed by the extremely high collaboration ability of the Xiangdao production team trained under the industrialization system.As long as the crew is spinning, like a well-oiled wheel, the time to prepare for the transition is very short.But to match it, the Xiangdao people are also very xenophobic. Basically, when there are more Xiangdao people in the crew, they form their own system, and outsiders can't integrate in at all.

Fortunately, because Fei Ran had learned Cantonese when he was a part-timer in the Xiangdao crew, he started learning again this time to star in the Xiangdao film. Although he will definitely need post-dubbing, at least the difference in mouth shape is not too big, so it won't make people stand out.This kind of dedicated attitude seems to be appreciated by the film crew. After work is over, people will often invite Fei Jian to have a late-night snack and correct his Cantonese pronunciation by the way.After a long time, my excellent Cantonese became better and better. When the film was finished, I could do the post-production by myself.

It is worth mentioning that Director Chang Ke has indeed changed the script several times. Although the general plot has not changed, the lines have to be changed almost every few days, and sometimes even the lines of the scenes that have been filmed are changed Take another shot.It was so procrastinating, and the filming didn't finish until mid-April.

At the finale banquet of "The Cage", Chang Ke patted Fei Ran on the shoulder and praised: "The play is not bad, we will cooperate again next time!"

With a smile on Feiran's face, MMP in his heart, he immediately set the Flag——

I'll take your role again, I'm an idiot!
