Chapter 59 "Consummation" (23)

Subsequently, "Consummation" entered the most depressing ending part of the whole movie.

In the ending plot, only Cai Kuan's parents felt that everything was fine.Their "grandson" is cute and good-looking, so Caikuan's parents took photos and talked to everyone in the yard. In the 90s, the houses of the units often had yards with fake rivers, rockeries, and gazebos. They always strolled in the yards to show their neighbors happiness.

Cai Kuan and Lang Ying have a delicate relationship.Lang Ying felt that even after Caikuan divorced, he would not be able to get rid of this family-Li Fangfang's baby was Caikuan's son in terms of status, and probably would be for the rest of his life.Lang Ying didn't know where the three people who were still acting were going, so she could only take one step at a time and cherish the time in front of her.He often stayed at Caikuan's house, and they seemed very absurd.Lang Ying hated Li Fangfang, and he didn't like that child either.

And Li Fangfang's attitude towards her child is complicated and loves and hates.

The baby is very similar to his biological father. It cries loudly from time to time but Li Fangfang ignores it, and even shouts to stop it.The baby cried until he spat out milk several times, and the swaddle on his chest was wet.Once, Li Fangfang wanted to cover his head with a pillow to keep him quiet, but Cai Kuan stopped him.But sometimes, Fangfang will also give birth to maternal love, take care of him and educate him, although she hates herself and hates herself very much afterwards.

Li Fangfang also hated Caikuan—another person in the house.She only hoped she would give birth when she realized she was pregnant.If she didn't want to stay in Beijing, if she didn't have this fake marriage, it would be impossible for her to have anything to do with Long Yingren, let alone give birth to a child for Long Yingren.

Liu Yao still acted to the extreme.

In the bright light of the day, Li Fangfang would be in a daze all day long.She didn't want to eat or drink, just chewed on a biscuit and the day went by.Sometimes, Li Fangfang would go to the balcony and stare at the downstairs for a long time.

Xie Lansheng found that Liu Yao's speech became weaker when filming these contents.Facing Caikuan and Lang Ying, Li Fangfang's voice became softer.Lan Sheng didn't notice this, thanks to Liu Yao's performance.

And in the darkness of night, Li Fangfang's eyes will be filled with emptiness.

When Qi Yong was shooting a close-up, Liu Yao suddenly burst into tears.

Xie Lansheng did not signal to stop, and the camera continued to operate.

Tears slid down from both sides, Liu Yao grabbed the pillow towel with his hand, turned his head, wiped it off, stared at the ceiling again, and burst out two lines of tears again.Finally, she "realized" that there was no one around, and she gradually began to cry, one after another, very presumptuous, sad and sad, like a helpless child in the silent night.

The camera was operating silently, and everyone was shocked again.

"Thank you, Director," Yu Qianzi said, "This performance is amazing."

Xie Lansheng: "...um."

Xie Lansheng knew that Liu Yao was actually playing himself.Li Fangfang hated the two men.Caikuan's parents forced Caikuan to die, so Caikuan married himself, and Long Yingren used her as a substitute because of his wife's absence, and both of them had shadows of ex-husbands.Xie Lansheng could imagine that even though Li Xian didn't love Liu Yao, his couple's life was not short, and he enjoyed it at the same time.

To be honest, he didn't expect it.

Because of Liu Yao, the effect of "Consummation" was much better than expected.

The best actress in the world may not have this energy.

She has really put everything into it, and she is really burning out her life, whether it is psychological or physical - Liu Yao doesn't care about hurting herself at all, sad, desperate, depressed, painful, a glimmer of hope Xie Lansheng was quite worried that she didn't have a glimmer of light left for herself. Few actors could do this.No matter how much actors put in, they should have a safe haven.At the same time, Liu Yao didn't care at all when he played the submerged content, overdrawing his life and exploring the limit, it was a bit too desperate.

Also, in order to play the heroine's injury, Liu Yao barely ate after the "collapse" scene!She doesn't eat, only eats vegetables, even only drinks the water used to cook vegetables, and goes out for a run every day, losing 10 catties in a week!Xie Lansheng didn't ask for this, but Liu Yao noticed it and took the initiative to say that Li Fangfang should be very thin in the last paragraph.Xie Lansheng had also heard about actors losing weight for the film, but that was before the filming started, he had never seen such a ruthless one, it was too bad for health.

Liu Yao even attracted the other actors present.The actor of Long Yingren, the actor of Long Yingren's wife, and "Caikuan's parents" all performed exceptionally well. Not only did the performance give Xie Lansheng the feeling he wanted, but he even sublimated it, making everything even more shocking. .

Xie Lansheng felt that with Xin Ye in the first half and Liu Yao in the second half, the independent film "Consummation" was a blast from beginning to end.And he's not bad himself.The script was written by him himself, he knew what he wanted best, and he was still a little reluctant to let go, but during the filming process, a "lover" and a "wife" quickly let him into the play.

Xie Lansheng really did not expect "Consummation" to be filmed like this.Xin Yingdi was an accident, and Liu Yao was even more of an accident. He believed that it would shock all audiences during the screening.

He didn't have much confidence in winning the award, but now, after Xin Ye and Liu Yao finished their performances, Xie Lansheng's confidence increased greatly.

…………

It was early morning after filming the night scene, but Xie Lansheng was a little bored, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, patted his trouser pocket, but found no lighter.

Seeing this, Xinye borrowed a match from Yu Qianzi, walked up to Xie Lansheng, pinched it gently with three fingers, swiped it back, and lit it, the red flame jumped up and danced.

In 1995, most people were already using lighters, but some people were still using matches to light cigarettes.

Xie Lansheng was taken aback for a moment, and leaned towards his face with a cigarette between his hands, took a strong puff, and lit the cigarette.

Xin Ye looked into Lan Sheng's eyes, slowly retracted the match, twitched his wrist, and extinguished the fire.

I don't know what's going on, but seeing Xin Ye's slender and well-knit fingers shaking up and down while pinching the match, Xie Lansheng felt... so fucking sexy.

Men can do the same.

Just as the red flame was extinguished, green smoke spiraled up, Xie Lansheng and Xin Ye looked at each other through the smoke.

As always, Xinye's lip line was straightened, but Xie Lansheng wanted to pry it open.

I don't know what happened, Xie Lansheng felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart, and he didn't close his mouth. With a light breath, the first puff of smoke naturally fell on Xinye's lips.

Xinye lowered her eyes and asked, "Did you do it on purpose?"

Xie Lansheng thought about it for a while, and felt that he did it on purpose or not, so he didn't come to a conclusion for a long time.

Xinye obviously understood, and suddenly said, "Director Xie, do you know the state of Hawaii?"

Xie Lansheng frowned: "Of course."

"I just heard something."

"Ok?"

"The results of the retrial of the BaehrLewin case came out - three gay couples won the lawsuit. The judge has ruled that the law HRS572-1, which stipulates that marriages are limited to men and women, is unconstitutional and sex-discriminatory."

"..."

"Director Xie, according to this verdict, gays have the right to marry. I guess the Hawaiian legislature will make a constitutional amendment to stipulate that gays can't get married, but everything is getting better, don't be afraid."

Xie Lansheng scratched his forehead with the tip of his right finger holding the cigarette, and said, "Yes." After that, he looked up at Xin Ye, and said softly, "It's past one, go back to sleep."

"it is good."

Xie Lansheng didn't speak any more.

He actually has a sense of fate, thinking that he will fall in love with Xin Ye.

He was also concerned when he heard that gays might get married.

Although it is only a contract, it has always represented the closest relationship that two strangers can form.

Gay couples, will the future really be so bright?

Xie Lansheng took another drag on his cigarette.

…………

On the other side, Liu Yao went back to her room, took off her watch, washed her face and brushed her teeth.

Suddenly, her roommate assistant Xiao Hong knocked on the door loudly: "Sister Liu Yao! I want to pee! I'll pee while you wash, okay?!"

Liu Yao panicked and opened the door, and Xiao Hong rushed in, "Sorry, sorry!"

Liu Yao gently shook his head: "Use it first, I'm going out."

Xiaohong: "Thank you sister!"

Because she had just washed her face halfway, Liu Yao picked up a towel with her right hand and wiped her cheeks carelessly, then put it back on the shelf. When she turned her head, she saw Xiao Hong staring at her hands.

Liu Yao realized something, and quickly put his hands on his chest.She wears a watch during the day and no one sees her wrist.

"Sister Liu Yao..." Xiao Hong said, "That, that...that scar..."

Liu Yao obviously hesitated for a while, and finally knew that he couldn't hide it, so he smiled: "It's all in the past, so it's okay to be stupid at that time."

Xiaohong also heard from Liu Yao that she just got divorced four months ago, but she didn't know the specific reason, nor did she know the identity of her ex-husband, so she asked in a daze, "Is it because of... the divorce?"

"Yes, and no." Liu Yao smiled, "Actually, I had a relationship with my ex-husband before we got married, about three years. Two relationships, one from 24 to 27 years old, and one from 28 to 34 years old. [-] years old."

Xiaohong: "???"

"That person changed his mind later, or something was wrong a long time ago... He finally came to be with his 'sister', the sister he recognized. On the eve of our wedding, he suddenly proposed to break up. In the 80s...it was very embarrassing .”

Xiaohong: "Sister..."

Liu Yao folded his hands in front of his lower abdomen: "After being abandoned twice in a row, I became stupid for a while. My mother passed away when I was three years old, and my father reunited when I was four years old. They had a child soon, and I was very... redundant at home. For 30 years, I have been longing for family and caring, so I can't stand it. The friends around me are just friends, and there is no such bond with each other. I have been... very lonely, so I gave them my whole heart, like drowning When people see the air, sacrifice too much, give too much, and finally find that it is an illusion, they can't stand it...I feel that my life will never be hopeless, and I think, instead of losing again and again and finally completely despairing, what better It’s better to just die. I also know that I’m stupid. Those who don’t have them will be gone. However, people will gradually become very paranoid in the process of pursuit. If they don’t get it, it will be very painful. People can understand it. However, as I said just now, it’s all in the past, and time can heal everything. I’m used to those extreme feelings, and I’m numb, and I don’t feel any more. Besides, I still have a career Ah, and acting. Filming with all of you is very fulfilling and very happy."

"Well," Xiaohong blinked her eyes, "Are you all right?"

"It's really okay. Now I think about it, I was so stupid. There is nothing difficult."

"That's fine."

"Okay." Liu Yao said, "Don't you want to pee? Hurry up."

"That's right!" Xiaohong felt that her bladder was about to explode again, and she unbuttoned her pants while running, "I'm suffocating!"

"Xiaohong," Liu Yao said casually before closing the door for the other party, "Don't let Director Xie know about the injury on my wrist, okay?"

Xiaohong: "Huh?"

"Director Xie just loves to worry about things, I'm afraid he'll be asking around, it's too annoying."

"Oh oh oh, I see!"

Liu Yao still held the handle, did not close the door, and asked again: "Xiaohong, is it okay?"

"Well," Xiaohong sat on the toilet, held up her trousers, and said, "Okay."
