Recapture the Entertainment Industry

The room was dim, and only the ticking of the second hand could be heard.

Snow-white walls and bedding, the room is small, with a lamp hanging from the ceiling and an old-fashioned toilet in the corner.An unsteady person fell asleep on the bed, and he could vaguely hear his struggle humming from his nostrils.

"Old Xu..."

"Old Xu..."

"Old Xu!"

The voice seemed to come from the sky, with a cold wind, it swung around the room twice, and it became like a call from a long distance in a stalactite cave.

The cold wind blew on his face, Xu Zhen frowned, unable to speak, fine sweat appeared on his forehead.

The limbs seemed to be bound by hemp rope, making people unable to move. In the quiet room, a light and agile body suddenly appeared.

Flickering in from the wide open window, the figure is tall and strong, without feet, the legs replaced a puff of smoke, but the facial features are clear and distinct.

Cao Dingkun smiled at him and called softly: "Old Xu..."

Xu Zhen curled up in fright, trying hard to see something in Cao Dingkun's eyes.Those eyes were surprisingly bright, which made him feel strange and familiar at the same time. He floated in the air, landed slowly, and then floated to the side of the bed.

Xu Zhen wanted to run, but he didn't have the strength to shake his head.Cao Dingkun stared at him for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Old Xu, I've been away for so long, do you miss me?"

Xu Zhen cried, saying in his heart that I miss you, don't kill me, but he opened his mouth, but he couldn't hear his voice.

Cao Dingkun's smile suddenly restrained: "You don't miss me?!"

Xu Zhen wanted to shake his head and tell him that he guessed wrong, but he could only stare helplessly at him. Cao Dingkun's face changed from expressionless to ferocious, and suddenly he jumped up and curled his hands into eagle claws to pinch him. .

In mid-air, everything became so unreal, even the clear facial features were covered by the mist below him, the wind blew on Xu Zhen's face, and the mist washed away, and the exposed face was...! !

He trembled all over, and suddenly opened his eyes wide, sweat slowly slipped from the corner of his forehead to the back of his neck, but he didn't care about itching.

His mind was blank, his heart was beating rapidly, and stars appeared from the bottom up in front of his eyes. He was so tired that his body was exhausted. The cold wind hit his face. His spirit was already tense, and he immediately turned his head as if he had seen a ghost. go.

The windows were wide open, and the curtains were rattling by the night wind, and they bulged a lot, which made his eyes widen in fright.

He wanted to get up, but even the only right hand he could use was weak. Xu Zhen frightened and pressed the ambulance bell desperately, while turning his head in horror to look at the still fluttering curtains, almost forcing tears.

The two nurses slept in another room, and Xu Zhen shared a room alone at night.Hearing the ambulance bell, the two of them thought that something had happened to Xu Zhen, so they hurried over. As soon as they entered the door, they threw teacups and fruits over their faces. Xu Zhen's roar was clearly distinguishable in the silent night: "They are all dead Did you?!! Don’t remember to close the window?!!”

It's not once or twice that he has such a bad temper. If it wasn't for the high salary, the nurses would have left long ago.Afraid that he would lose his temper now, the two of them stood there obediently and let him scold them. When his temper was over, because they didn't want to take responsibility, they made excuses for themselves: "We really closed it..."

Looking up, Xu Zhen's complexion became even darker. They didn't dare to say any more, they hurried to pull up the window curtains, and spit in their hearts: Bah!As for the big director, I don't know how many bad things he has done, and he is afraid of the wind blowing the curtains.What are you afraid of?Afraid that someone will come to you and ask for your life?

Xu Zhen stayed awake all night until dawn. Before going out, the nurse took the phone and said that someone was looking for him and it was urgent.

It turned out that the person on the other end of the phone was Su Shengbai. The two of them seemed to have deliberately forgotten each other's existence after the car accident. Su Shengbai must also have a guilty conscience and hadn't picked up work for a long time.At this time, although the voice on the phone was still soft, it was full of unspeakable anger: "Brother Xu! Why did you say such things during the interview?!"

Xu Zhen froze for a moment before remembering what he was referring to, and frowned slightly.During the interview, he was very nervous, not because he was nervous about facing the camera, but because Luo Ding's smile made his mind go blank for no reason.However, the reporter mentioned Cao Dingkun's name again so he couldn't die. He was in a panic for a while, and he didn't realize that he had said the wrong thing until he came back to his senses.

But this is not the reason for Su Shengbai to question him.

Xu Zhen sneered, ignored him, and hung up the phone directly.In fact, speaking of it, he is already like this, besides movies, is there anything worthy of his nostalgia?

Hearing the crisp beep, Su Shengbai was stunned for a while, then couldn't sit still, grabbed his phone and circled around the room.

Xu Zhen's current state made him more and more worried.He always had a vague feeling that the other party was now an old, exhausted, mad dog hiding in the dark, ready to bite someone to death.

-

Regardless of his character, there are rumors and gossips in the crew, at least in the end, Xu Zhen has a good work attitude.

Even if Luo Ding didn't want to talk to him at all now, when he heard others talking about Xu Zhen's filming, he subconsciously wanted to respond.

But I don't know if it's an illusion, Luo Ding always feels that Xu Zhen's current mental state is very worrying.This is not pure speculation, most of the gossip in the crew is gossip about Xu Zhen's personal state, losing his temper is nothing, but throwing things for no reason is the real problem.Luo Ding knew that Xu Zhen had a bad temper in private and liked to use hands, but smashing things was really rare.I have seen him get angry in the crew a few times, his eyes are red, he is panting heavily, his eyes suddenly clear and suddenly blurry, it is really unbearable.

Except for losing his temper, Xu Zhen was silent at other times.Watching movies without taking breaks to get on-site or something, this person is very conceited, and he won't listen to the opinions of his assistants easily.At the beginning of filming, the assistant directors probably wanted to build up a tacit understanding with him. They once did some work for him without telling him, but they were almost scolded later, and they stopped meddling in their own business from then on.The atmosphere in the director's team was also a bit weird. Xu Zhen and the two nurses, and the others followed the production representative. Although they were not close to each other, they didn't say a word outside of work.

Yuan Bing raised his head and took a sip of hot milk, yawned and sat next to Luo Ding. The director's team quarreled again. Xu Zhen took a cup and smashed it on the ground. .

"Look over there, it's really weird." Yuan Bing said.

Luo Ding was fiddling with his mobile phone, and when he heard the words, he glanced over there and chuckled lightly: "Sister Yuan's ability to accept is too small." After filming for so many years, he still feels surprised by this situation.

Yuan Bing became serious: "No, I really don't think it's a big deal if it's a normal quarrel. But don't you think every time Director Xu loses his temper, it's very inexplicable? The last time he told me about a play, he told the truth. I didn't understand what he was talking about for half an hour, and it was really abnormal to talk upside down."

Luo Ding listened silently and didn't speak, Xu Zhen couldn't talk to him easily these days.He remembered the last time he went to the bathroom in the crew, and when he came out, he found that the nurse was pushing Xu Zhen in front of him in the small corridor. The nurse walked very slowly, Luo Ding was in a hurry, so he said hello.When he made the sound, Xu Zhen turned his head and looked horrified, which he still remembers to this day.

Xu Zhen was afraid of him. Although he didn't know the reason, Luo Ding always felt it was ridiculous.

Now in the group, when I talk to him, my eyes are always wandering, and I feel so guilty, I really don't know how to make people think about it.

Since he was too lazy to care about it, he stopped caring. Looking at Yuan Bing's gossip-seeking eyes, Luo Ding shrugged helplessly, and opened the text message, which contained a short sentence: "I'm here, where are you?"

He stood up with a screech, startling Yuan Bing.

"Sorry, sorry," he apologized while looking for Wu Fangyuan, and asked Wu Fangyuan to take him to the entrance of the studio.Seeing that tall figure approaching quickly from a distance, Luo Ding's heart jumped fast. Seeing that there were people all around, he strongly restrained his urge to rush up and hug him, and stood on the spot to greet him with a smile.

Duan Xiubo walked all the way, looking up and down, with a smile on his face, and a plastic bag in his hand.The crew members were surprised by his arrival, but they didn't show it. They greeted him respectfully all the way, and Duan Xiubo waved to them.

Standing still, Duan Xiubo and Luo Ding faced each other, keeping a distance of less than half a meter. They looked at each other with smiles in their eyes, and their expressions were indescribably gentle.

After a long time, Duan Xiubo said, "I still lost weight."

"Illusion." Luo Ding patted his arm, Duan Xiubo took him to his side and hugged his shoulders, struggled for a while and then stopped.To be honest, he also missed the smell of this embrace.

"How is work?"

"It's all good. How about you filming?"

"Everyone is taking good care of me. Sister Yuan is inside. Do you want to go in and see her?"

Duan Xiubo looked down at him deeply, Luo Ding secretly pushed him, there were people all around.

The other party nodded: "Okay, I haven't seen her for a long time, I don't know how she is doing recently."

Some of the familiar staff along the way had worked with Duan Xiubo before, and they immediately followed when they saw someone. Seeing that Duan Xiubo seemed to be in a good mood, they chatted endlessly, teasing Luo Ding and Duan Xiubo Relationship.

"Didn't Teacher Duan still have activities in City S last night? Why are you in City T today?"

"It must be the plane in the morning, I can't wait to visit the class."

"Oh, it's really an official match, and they can't be separated for a minute." Everyone started joking, "My boyfriend/girlfriend is not like this!"

Duan Xiubo laughed loudly, but his hand on Luo Ding's shoulder did not loosen at all.This kind of calm attitude makes those booing people really feel that they are joking. There are many brothers and sisters who have such a good relationship in the circle. Female artists express their feelings well and like to kiss each other.On the contrary, those people who are sure of something in private, on the surface, look like they have nothing to do with each other.After all, as many ghosts as there are in my heart, I will show some of them.

Yuan Bing drank milk and took a nap there, when Duan Xiubo came over, he stood up with an ouch: "Busy man, I haven't contacted you for more than half a year, the sun is really coming out from the west today!"

She paused, her eyes fell on Duan Xiubo's arm holding Luo Ding's shoulder, and she raised her brows: "Can you two stop being so clingy? Every time you are like this in front of me, you deliberately stimulate me?"

Luo Ding was terrified by being told all the way, but at this moment, he didn't feel it and was afraid. Everyone was joking, he was too serious, but he didn't know the fun.Hearing what Yuan Bing said, he deliberately hugged Duan Xiubo's waist and leaned against his neck, feeling the instant tightening force on his shoulders, Luo Ding couldn't help but burst out laughing.

A bunch of people around made a fuss, saying that they were a match made in heaven, and Yuan Bing was so single that he was about to hit someone, and just as he was about to scratch Luo Ding's arm, Duan Xiubo grabbed his wrist.

There was not much strength on the wrist, but enough to prevent her from palming down.Yuan Bing was taken aback for a moment, and when he looked up and saw Duan Xiubo's smile as he helplessly touched Luo Ding's head, his mind suddenly became excited.

"Sister Yuan, Sister Yuan, don't be angry." Luo Ding also teased her, and when the teasing was over, he accepted it, and asked her to return to his seat while apologizing.

Yuan Bing stared at him, his gaze instantly became complicated, seeing that Luo Ding didn't notice, he raised his head to look at Duan Xiubo.

Duan Xiubo met her eyes, raised his eyebrows, and showed a smile that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

They can have fun, and the people around them have to join in the trouble, whether they really feel coke or just to liven up the atmosphere.It was not busy when we were about to eat lunch, so there was still time for everyone to chat and laugh around here.

Because of the conflict in the director's group, the crew has been very quiet recently, and everyone felt refreshed when there was a sudden commotion. Later, the production representatives brought the assistant director and came over to chat with Duan Xiubo.Xu Zhen finished watching a few scenes shot in the morning, and heard the noise not far away, frowned slightly: "What's going on over there?"

The assistant bent down and told him the news that Duan Xiubo had come.

He was stunned for a moment, Duan Xiubo is not from this crew, why is he here?

The assistant is well-informed: "I heard that Teacher Duan and Teacher Luo have a good relationship, and Teacher Yuan and the others are good friends in private. Are you here to visit the class?"

Xu Zhen recalled it for a while, and remembered that the producer Kaixuan told him that Duan Xiubo paid for the late stage financing of this film. After thinking about it, he felt that as a director, he should go over and have a few words with him. talk.

He ordered the nurse to push him over, and the crew members along the way immediately fell silent when they saw him coming, and subconsciously moved away to make a gap enough for him to pass through.

The crowd moved away, and everything in the crowd naturally became invisible.Yuan Bing sat on the props bed, sideways in front, Duan Xiubo leaned on Luo Ding, almost hung himself on the other party's body, and was talking with a prop master he knew in the crew with a smile.

I don't know what was said, everyone who heard the voice laughed, and Luo Ding, who was leaned on by Duan Xiubo, did the same.

He smiled very nicely, his bright eyes narrowed slightly, and the black pupils seemed to be stained with water, translucent and clear.

It seemed that the strength of his laughter was beyond his control, so he naturally threw his head back and put his head against Duan Xiubo's chin, and patted Duan Xiubo on the head vigorously.Duan Xiubo grabbed his hand, but didn't let it go, covering the back of the other's hand and sticking it to his face.

Entering the center of the storm, the joyful atmosphere around was instantly swept away, and everyone who was still joking turned their heads to stare at Xu Zhen.

Duan Xiubo and Luo Ding also returned to their normal postures, and looked back at him with some puzzlement.

Xu Zhen's gaze was locked on Luo Ding's face, and he quickly turned away after looking at it for two seconds.After seeing Cao Dingkun, who jumped up and strangled his neck in his sleep that day, turned into Luo Ding's face for the last moment, Xu Zhen felt flustered when he saw the other party again.While reminding himself that there is no such superstitious and weird theory of souls in this world, on the other hand, Luo Ding's frequent expressions and behaviors that make him hairy are overturning this point all the time.Xu Zhen knew that there might be something wrong with his mental state, and those details that made him terrified to death might just be a far-fetched expression made up by himself to scare himself.But even so, he still couldn't behave naturally in front of Luo Ding.Especially after learning that Luo Ding still runs around the winding mountain road as usual every morning.

But just now, he suddenly discovered that Luo Ding, who was with Duan Xiubo, had an extra familiar yet unfamiliar temperament, warm and soft, as soft as the sun shining on his body.

He felt more and more that he couldn't figure out this young man. Forget it, since he couldn't figure it out, why bother to force himself?

Duan Xiubo said he wanted to leave, but both the producer and the assistant director came from Kaixuan, so he still had some insight. Knowing that Duan Xiubo had worked hard all the way, he simply booked a room for him in the hotel of the crew. .

The room was empty, and he sneaked to Luo Ding's side.As soon as they entered the door, they kissed and hugged each other as if they were suffocated. Due to the filming the next day, the two of them were very restrained. After almost venting, they hugged each other profusely.

The man with the heating system wanted to sleep, Duan Xiubo thought of Luo Ding's subconscious closeness to him when he was on the set today, couldn't help but grabbed his hand and kissed him: "It's been so long since I saw you, I miss you so much."

Luo Ding touched his head: "I miss you too."

Look at each other, smile, exchange kisses.

Duan Xiubo was still thinking about it, and suddenly thought of something: "What's going on? The man in the wheelchair is indeed Director Xu, right? I remember he doesn't look like this? I was almost scared when I saw him in the crew today. I jump!"

Luo Ding didn't speak, and Duan Xiubo patted him: "You should stop working with him after filming this movie."

"No more cooperation." Luo Ding also sighed softly, stroking the other party's back.

"By the way." Duan Xiubo stood up slightly, "Did you know about the Golden Lion Award? Carmen voted for all three "Blade Warriors", and Huo Xie seemed to say that he would also apply for "Crouching Dragon."

"Golden Lion Award?" Luo calmed down, "Seriously? You voted for it? When will you be able to vote?"

"Anyway, there will be news soon." Duan Xiubo leaned over and kissed Luo Ding's nose: "Why do you care so much? You really like this film festival?"

Luo Ding lay back, looked away for a moment, and sighed.

-

After taking a bath, Duan Xiubo got up lightly when Luo Ding fell asleep, got dressed, and went back to his room.

After all, there are too many people in the production crew, so it's okay for him to stay in Luo Ding's room for half the night, but if he doesn't return all night, the relationship between good brothers may deteriorate.

The hotel is covered with thick velvet blankets, which are slightly elastic when stepped on. He took out his room card and swiped it on the door lock. Along with the sound of beeps, Yuan Bing sneered: "Oh, I thought you I'm not coming back tonight."

Duan Xiubo was taken aback. Looking back, Yuan Bing might have been standing in the shadow of the door and the wall, but now he suddenly stood up like a ghost, very scary.

"Sister Yuan..." Duan Xiubo was puzzled, "Did you take the wrong medicine?"

Yuan Bing's expression immediately became ugly, she looked left and right, saw no one, pushed Duan Xiubo into the room, and squeezed in the next second.

As the door closed, her sharp voice sounded: "I took the wrong medicine? I think you took the wrong medicine! Are you crazy?"

There was no reason for her to lose her temper inexplicably, but Duan Xiubo understood in a second what exactly poked her G-spot.Duan Xiubo sighed after turning on the electricity in the room, "You don't need to worry about this matter."

"You have such a big face? Who wants to care about you?" Yuan Bing slapped the closet door angrily, "Are you trying to piss me off?" Thinking of Luo Ding and Duan Xiubo being inseparable during the day when they were on the set At the beginning, when she didn't understand, Yuan Bing only thought that the two of them had a good relationship, but after seeing Duan Xiubo's eyes, she was sweating all over the next day.

Duan Xiubo didn't speak, and Yuan Bing calmed down after a while: "Who took the initiative first?"

Duan Xiubo is quite generous: "Me."

"Are you trying to kill him?" Yuan Bing's eyes widened. "Have you ever thought about him? Can you be more responsible? Are you going to kill him?"

Duan Xiubo had a bitter face: "What happened when I told you about the relationship?"

"Bah!" Yuan Bing didn't give any face, "If Luo Ding is a woman, I don't care! How old is he and you just tricked him into being like this? Did you restrain yourself a little when you were in the crew today? Think more about him, you shouldn't be so unscrupulous in front of people!"

Duan Xiubo's face gradually became gloomy, he hated to hear people say these things, although he knew that homosexuals in the circle had a difficult journey, but he didn't want to turn a relationship into a rat in the gutter.

He sneered: "I am close to him, who do you listen to gossip after we leave?"

Yuan Bing was taken aback for a moment, and his anger extinguished a lot. After thinking about it, he really didn't hear such gossip.Later, I heard a few costume designers enviously say that Luo Ding and Duan Xiubo have a really good relationship. Occasionally, when someone mentions official matching or CP, they all use it in a joking tone.

Looking at her expression, Duan Xiubo understood almost everything, and suddenly became more confident: "He and I are born with each other. I have never liked a woman, and neither has he. No one forced anyone. This is called mutual love!"

Yuan Bing looked at him quietly: "When did it start?"

Duan Xiubo recalled it for a while, and the anger on his face was gradually replaced by a smile: "It's been almost a year."

Yuan Bing stared at his smile for a while, and suddenly there was an indescribable tiredness in his eyes, and he turned to lean against the closet door.

Duan Xiubo pretended that she didn't exist, and sat cross-legged on the quilt to watch the news on TV.

After a long time, Yuan Bing straightened up quietly and let out a long sigh.

Opening the door, leaning on the wall with her hand, she turned her face and glanced at the man sitting on the bed who was not particular about his appearance, and pointedly reminded: "You do it yourself, don't ruin his future."

After hearing the sound of closing the door, Duan Xiubo smashed the remote control at once.

What kind of attitude is this?One or two, who do you look down on?Whose future will be ruined?Duan Xiubo is such a person?

Yuan Bing also felt tired.

She has been friends with Duan Xiubo for so many years, and as the only person in the entertainment industry who can make Duan Xiubo call her sister willingly, she also treats him as her own brother in her heart.

There is no need to describe how chaotic the entertainment circle is, let alone how chaotic the gay circle is. Two chaotic circles overlap and there is no pure land. Why are these two people so hard to think about it and want to step into it?

Luo Ding has finally climbed from a small artist who made money by making announcements to today, and she can see all the hard work she has put in.After filming and cooperating for a long time, there will indeed be some unreasonable emotions in her heart, but this is not the reason why she is angry about the relationship between Duan Xiubo and Luo Ding.After staying in the crew for a long time, falling in love with each other has long been the norm. In the early years, she also had a good impression of Duan Xiubo, but as an artist, managing her feelings and emotions is a compulsory course. After a period of separation, no matter how strong the romance is, it will be forgotten Time breaks up.

What she was angry about was that the two of them didn't take their future seriously. It's not easy to get to where they are today, especially Luo Ding.They are together as long as they are together, but on the surface they are so close, the number of young people is uncertain, what if they break up in the future?

How to meet?How to get along?How embarrassing?

The delicacy of being a woman caused too many bad thoughts to turn in her mind at once, but Duan Xiubo's attitude just now obviously resisted what she said.

Yuan Bing smiled wearily.

People who are passionately in love think that two people will live like this for the rest of their lives, and she has also had this kind of time.

But now?Aren't you still alone?

Turning his head to look at the direction of Luo Ding's room, Yuan Bing's footsteps, which had been paused for a long time, did not move after all.

Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow, Duan Xiubo just came out, and he is probably exhausted.

-

It turned out badly.

Yuan Bing himself almost forgot that there was a kissing scene the next day.

Luo Ding didn't think it was too much of a burden at first, after all, he had filmed so many crews, and kiss scenes were a compulsory course.What's more, the cooperating person is Yuan Bing and he is not a stranger. There is a difference between drama and reality. It is a kind of professional ethics to withdraw your soul and devote yourself to filming.

But the burning eyes piercing the air from the side always made him feel that his surroundings were boiling.

"Crap!" Xu Zhen threw the script back on the chair and sulked. He had some ghosts in his heart that he didn't dare to get angry with Luo Ding, but today the other party's mistakes are indeed a bit too much.

The assistant director saw that he was unwilling to come forward, so he had to get up and communicate with Luo Ding: "Luo Ding! Can you stop being so stiff? You are holding your lover in your arms! You love her so much that you want to die for her! She will die soon! You’re about to die, don’t make your expression as if you’re telling her ‘I’ll give you a kiss and you die quickly’ okay!?”

"..." Luo Ding was supported to stand up, patted the dust on his knees, and said softly, "Sorry."

The director team returned and gave him a 10-minute break. Luo Ding frowned and walked to Duan Xiubo's side, kicking his chair: "Hurry up!"

Duan Xiubo raised his eyebrows: "Why?"

"Then why don't you just sit down! Don't stare at me!" Luo Ding didn't know what medicine he had taken wrongly. He got up earlier than anyone else. For the play, I moved a chair and sat on the side, refusing to leave.

He couldn't clearly tell the director to let Duan Xiubo leave, what's the matter?

Duan Xiubo frowned: "I don't want it!"

"Get out, be obedient!" Luo Ding drove away in a low voice.

Duan Xiubo was very stubborn, and refused to give in: "I don't want it! Show me what's wrong? I didn't make a sound to disturb you."

This is going to be a scoundrel, Luo Ding has nothing to do with him.You didn't make a sound, your eyes were more revealing than anyone else's, staring at you like burning your back.

Returning to the arena to touch up makeup, Yuan Bing sat up covered in blood, looked at Duan Xiubo with cold eyes, met the other's gaze, and sneered at each other.

Duan Xiubo: Regardless of how old I am, I still covet fresh meat.Only Luo Ding could get rid of the blood on his face.

Yuan Bing: Bah!The dog nature of this food guard, I don't know who thought the rope was not tied properly.

The author has something to say: Duan Xiubo: "Bah!"

Yuan Bing: "Bah!"

Duan Xiubo stomped his feet: "Bah!"

Yuan Bing stomped his feet: "Bah!"

Duan Xiubo wiped his hair: "Bah!"

Yuan Bing wiped his hair away: "Bah!"

Duan Xiubo wiped his face with a tissue: "Bah!"

Yuan Bing wiped his face with a tissue: "Bah!"

Luo Ding: "..."
