MTL - Rebirth and the Deadly Enemy HE-Chapter 215 i'm not a monster
The cafe was a bit dark, a woman was sitting in a damp corner, and as soon as her hand fell to the coffee cup, a man came in from the door with cold wind. Winter is coming. The man's face was very pale, he covered his black windbreaker, and took off the gentleman's hat on his head. "Miss Cheng."
Cheng Jinzhi's hand was next to the coffee, the freshly served coffee was not so steaming now. The heating here is also terrible. As soon as he entered the cafe, Cheng Jinzhi checked the address. That's right, this is what director Shen Quan sent her. I came in and sat for a while, looking at the deserted furnishings in the cafe, it was indeed the style of director Shen Quan.
"Have you read the script?" Shen Quan smiled sinisterly again. His signature smile has not changed over the years. The years didn't seem to have left any marks on his face, and he still looked the same as a few years ago.
"I saw it." It was different from the script I read before. "Has the director changed again?"
"changed."
"Will it change?"
"Hard to say."
What a director with personality. The script is called "I'm Not a Monster". Director Shen Quan asked her about it several years ago. When she listened to it, it felt like the autobiography of director Shen Quan. The script still uses the alien style, and ordinary people will feel a little bit numb after reading it, especially the description of the character's eyes. Elementary school composition has been written, the eyes are the windows of the soul. In that paragraph, the protagonist’s eyes are densely covered with thorns, surrounding the pupils, almost covering the white part of the eyes. The protagonist rubbed his eyes, and the eyelids were pierced by dense thorns. The description part makes full use of aesthetic colors, and when Cheng Jinzhi reads it, he feels uncomfortable for a while. This drama did not go into filming right away, not to mention deletions and deletions, even the story structure was overthrown and rewritten for a long time. This script was written by Shen Quan himself.
"Miss Cheng, trust me, I will help you fulfill your wish."
"What wish?"
Shen Quan hooked his lips and put his hands on the table. "This play will become your milestone performance."
Working with Shen Quan, she did learn a lot, but Cheng Jinzhi still has lingering fears about the previous "Alien". It took her so long to play "Alien", how long will it take her to play this one. She is thirty-five years old now.
"Boss, are you still working with director Shen Quan?" DC, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned his head when Cheng Jin got into the car. "You are now the most reputable young and middle-aged actor in China."
"What the **** is a young man?"
"That is to say, Boss, you are not young. You were only in your twenties when you were filming Alien, and your body can bear it."
"I read the script and it feels good." Cheng Jinzhi said.
This time the script is about how an ordinary person becomes a monster. Unlike Alien, Alien itself is a novelty-seeking direction, a story about a "monster". As for "I'm Not a Monster", it was a very easy life at the beginning. The plot of the sudden decline is very exciting.
"Boss, if you want to attack Case, let me weigh it for you again? We have several big-produced books in our hands." DC said.
"Let's talk about it later. I'll ask Rong Si to help me think about it."
"Okay." DC had no choice but to pass the book of "I'm Not a Monster" to Cheng Jinzhi.
Cheng Jinzhi took it back and showed it to Rong Si. Rong Si watched very carefully. She wore glasses and read every word. It usually takes Rong Si two or three hours to process documents, but it took Rong Si more than four hours to read this script. She was motionless, and if she hadn't turned the page, Cheng Jinzhi would have thought she was petrified. Seeing midnight, Rong Si let out a sigh of relief. "This movie is not bad."
To be praised by Rong Si, then this drama is really good.
"Have you decided yet?"
Cheng Jinzhi nodded. "I'm still a little hesitant. It's been half a year since I entered the group."
"Back half a year later, Cheng Yi and Rong Jin don't know me anymore. Especially Rong Jin, who is only so young. I can't bear her."
Rong Si listened and put the notebook aside again. She raised her hand and placed it on Cheng Jinzhi's shoulder. "Are you afraid you won't be able to play?"
Rong Si really hit the nail on the head.
"Yeah. You haven't seen my appearance after filming "Alien". If you saw it, you would definitely be shocked." After Cheng Jinzhi finished speaking, he looked up at Rong Si's expression.
"Have you seen it?" Cheng Jinzhi asked Rong Si.
"I went to see you when you were in the play." Rong Si said softly, holding Cheng Jinzhi's long hair.
"Why don't I know?" Cheng Jinzhi thought for a moment. "Is it grapefruit?"
"I'm sorry." Rong Si hugged Cheng Jinzhi into her arms.
"I'm sorry. At that time..." Cheng Jinzhi paused. "I still want to destroy you, even want to..."
Rong Si hugged Cheng Jinzhi tightly, as if the skinny Cheng Jinzhi was still in front of her eyes. Rong Si gently stroked Cheng Jinzhi's back. "If you think it over, just shoot it. I'll send Cheng Yi and Rong Jin to my parents tomorrow."
"Stay with you." Rong Si and Cheng Jinzhi said.
"If you stay by my side, I won't be able to get into the show anymore."
Rong Si laughed. "Aren't you the most professional actor?"
"certainly."
Cheng Jinzhi leaned on Rong Si's shoulder. "When the time comes, don't be scared by me."
"Won't."
How could Rong Si be frightened, when she treated her like that, she obeyed her. When Cheng Jinzhi entered the group, Rong Si followed behind him, and Rong Si kept a low profile. Wearing a mask and sunglasses, even a hood covers his entire face. Even so, Shen Quan recognized it at a glance. "Miss Rong, I've always wanted to cooperate with you."
Say you don't have time, Rong Si is staying here again now. Fortunately, Shen Quan didn't give too many scenes, only a few shots of passers-by. Shen Quan's shots are relatively free, he may bring out something from a passerby, and he may return to a passerby. The filming cycle of this drama lasted more than half a year, plus post-production and supplementary recording, it would take almost two years. In fact, it has been paved the way for so many years, and this movie may be Shen Quan's longest movie. Shen Quan is a weirdo in the director world. He was ridiculed by a director before, so he touched the director's shooting techniques and also made a well-received comedy. The most important thing is that he only spent one month, while the director took almost half a year, not including the previous publicity. After it was uploaded, the box office results of Shen Quan's film were similar to that of the director. You must know that the director had some propaganda behind him. Now, no one confronted Shen Quan head-on. Shen Quan won Case's Best Foreign Language Film award that year.
Stepping off the camera, Cheng Jinzhi watched his performance just now. This place is really killing obsessive-compulsive disorder. There are dense thorns growing in the eyes, and they are still stained with blood.
"Miss Cheng's acting skills are perfect now." Director Shen said.
"This is just the beginning." Cheng Jinzhi said, "I still can't control Shen's play freely."
"You can." Director Shen blinked, and then showed his sinister smile again.
It was fine at the beginning of the filming, but later, Cheng Jinzhi entered the scene. The frequency of talking every day has decreased. When I returned to the hotel, I basically looked tired, and sometimes I sat on the sofa without saying a word. Cheng Jinzhi's state is a drama idiot who is getting better. Rong Si sat beside Cheng Jinzhi, touched Cheng Jinzhi's shoulder slightly, and slowly hugged Cheng Jinzhi's head when Cheng Jinzhi didn't show any resistance.
In the play, several leading actors began to appear in a state of depression, which looked like they had taken drugs. There was also a lead actor who cried in front of director Shen Quan. He was 1.9 meters tall and wiped his tears in front of Shen Quan. "Director, I won't act anymore. I can't continue acting. If you let me go, the company will pay the liquidated damages."
Shen Quan couldn't mediate this, so Xu Zeying came over. Xu Zeying is Shen Quan's old partner. After Xu Zeying joined the group, he stabilized these leading actors. In the evening, he also came to find Cheng Jinzhi. He seemed to want to ask about Cheng Jinzhi's condition.
"Miss Rong, how is Miss Cheng?"
"She just came out of the play, and now she's asleep."
"That's good." Xu Zeying wiped the cold sweat from her brow. What he is most afraid of now is Cheng Jinzhi. Cheng Jinzhi is now an internationally renowned star. If something happened to her, then Shen Quan would definitely not be able to afford to walk around.
Shen Quan is really getting more and more daring now. Even Xu Zeying couldn't persuade him.
"Mom..." Cheng Jinzhi and Cheng Yi made a video, and Cheng Yi touched the camera with his hand.
"Eh."
"Mother."
"Eh."
Cheng Jinzhi just responded to the little girl at home, the little girl giggled, and then pointed to Rong Jin on the side. "younger sister."
Rong Jin still had that "you still dare to touch me" expression. Greeting them is neither salty nor dull. Not as greasy as Cheng Yi, maybe Rong Jin is still young? Anyway, Cheng Jinzhi comforted himself like this. Of course she hoped that little Si'er would cling to her.
After the video, Cheng Jinzhi felt a lot lighter. "You said that Director Shen is groping for these all day long, is he in a good mood?"
Thinking of director Shen Quan's creepy aura, it makes people feel that he has some kind of shadow.
"His script is a bit scary." Cheng Jinzhi said.
The previous director criticized his curiosity-seeking tendency, saying it was grandstanding. So this director Shen Quan analized him head-on, and according to his shooting techniques, he demonstrated what flattery is.
With Rong Si and the child by his side, Cheng Jinzhi's condition this time is still fine. Not as broken as last time. Maybe it's his acting skills that have improved? Are you comfortable? Anyway, after a month of filming, Cheng Jinzhi only saw a psychiatrist once. Before that, the psychiatrist followed suit.
