Full-time actor

“Ahahahaha, hahahaha!”

As Chen Yu was hung in the air, his crazy and insane voice could be heard from above the entire crew.

This was Chen Yujin's last scene.

The camera gave Chen Yu a close-up of his face at this moment, with exaggerated bloody oil paint and golden long hair with sweat dripping down, which looked particularly ostentatious in the dark night.

"Ok!"

"The clown's part is over!"

Nolan shouted, and the sound spread to Chen Yu's ears.

"Hu~~"

He then breathed a sigh of relief and his expression returned to normal. The master who was hanging him by the wire slowly lowered him to the ground.

Finished.

Chen Yu's scenes as the Joker in "The Dark Knight" were finally completed after filming for one month and five days.

This is actually quite efficient.

The main reason is that he is not the leading male role, and his role in the whole drama is actually much less than Bale's.

The main reason is that the filming schedule in Hollywood is relatively casual, so the filming notices also seem to be very relaxed.

"Chan, congratulations!"

"chan..."

"..."

The crew members, including several leading actors, came forward and hugged Chen Yu.

During a month of filming, Chen Yu's professionalism was secondary, and the clown he played left a deep impression on everyone.

It's very authentic, even more realistic than the Joker in the comics.

It’s like there’s a real superhero like this in this city, but at the same time he feels very special.

In contrast, Bale's Batman is much more unreal.

It’s not that Bale’s acting skills are bad, but wearing a mask really affects his performance and makes people feel out of place. It doesn’t feel that Batman exists in real life.

This is a difference in roles.

In addition, Chen Yu's acting skills are better than Bale's, so the role of the clown becomes even more outstanding.

Chen Yu did not insult the character. He conquered the screenwriter, producer, and other DC fans present with his acting skills.

"Chan, I hope we can have a chance to work together next time!"

Nolan patted Chen Yu's shoulder and smiled.

Chen Yu made a joke at the right time: "Batman Part Three?"

"Hahaha, this is not something I can decide!"

"It depends on the box office performance of our movie..."

Nolan shrugged, and Chen Yu nodded: "Then I'm still looking forward to the third part, so that I can continue to have a role in it!"

In the previous life, the role of the Joker was shelved because Heath Ledger, who played the Joker, died. In fact, at the end of "The Dark Knight", the Joker did not die, but was just imprisoned in a mental hospital.

It is entirely possible that a third part will come out, it just depends on how the screenwriter writes it.

However, with the death of Heath Ledger, the character of the Joker has become a regret for many DC fans of the Batman trilogy.

Now, if Chen Yu performs successfully, it is very likely that he will be able to continue to participate in the third part.

Chen Yu walked aside, picked up his phone and prepared to remove his makeup.

Seeing the missed call from his agent, Chen Yu quickly dialed the number.

"Is The Dark Knight finished?"

"Well, take a 2-day break before returning home!"

Chen Yu said to Ji Qiannan.

"Alright, two things. One is to terminate the contract with Huaxia Audiovisual. Our contract has expired!"

"it is good!"

Chen Yu didn't take this matter to heart.

After helping Huaxia Audiovisual make money for five years, a small goal had almost been achieved. Last year, Chen Yu could have terminated the contract early and just paid 5 million yuan in compensation, but he did not do so.

It's better to part ways in peace. The contract will be automatically terminated when it expires this year. It's better for everyone.

"The second one is a big deal. The Olympic Committee called me a few days ago and asked you to attend the rehearsal for the opening ceremony of our Imperial Capital Olympics next year!"

"Olympics?"

Chen Yu couldn't help but be stunned. It was already known throughout the country that Zhang Yimou had become the chief director.

In fact, it was basically decided two years ago.

"What about the time? Did the other party tell us the specific time for the rehearsal?"

"no!"

Ji Qiannan smiled and said, "I said it's hard to schedule an appointment with you, and I guess the show is still being planned, so I'll find time to go there when you come back!"

"Okay, then you can make an appointment in a few days!"

"I'm going to the Venice Film Festival next, so I guess there won't be much to do!"

Chen Yu needs to take a break for a while and finalize the shooting arrangements for his next movie.

After chatting with Ji Qiannan for a while, Chen Yu hung up the phone.

In the evening, we hosted a banquet for the entire crew as a farewell to them.

Chen Yu’s journey as the Joker in “The Dark Knight” has officially come to an end.

"I can finally go home!"

Chen Yu stood in the presidential suite on the rooftop of the Chicago Hotel, looking at the splendor of the night flowing before him, but he didn't feel like he could fit in at all.

Apart from my parents and family, what I miss most in my mind is that beautiful figure.

"What are you doing?"

Chen Yu dialed Liu Yifei's video.

"Watch TV, haha!"

Liu Yifei curled up on the sofa, pointing the camera at the TV in the living room. She was in her own home.

"Tsk, tsk, prison break!"

This girl is actually watching American TV series so early in the morning.

"Hehe, yeah, you're not here, so just take a look to kill time!"

This American TV series, which has been popular all over the world in the past two years, was directed by Brett Ratner, who had worked with Liu Yifei and Cheng Long in "Peak". After filming "Peak", he took time out to shoot this TV series, and he unexpectedly became a hit.

This has resulted in the "Peak" series being put on hold, and it's estimated that it will take another two years before filming can resume.

So Liu Yifei's schedule is very free recently.

Apart from "Better Days", there are no other dramas to be broadcast and no scripts have been accepted.

This is quite consistent with her personality.

Liu Yifei is different from Chen Yu who works very hard on filming. She is a relatively lazy person, so this filming rhythm may be more suitable for her.

Well, she is suitable to be a wife. In her free time, she can take care of the kids and play with small animals. If she wants to film a movie, she can take one.

"When will you be back?"

Liu Yifei suddenly paused the TV and appeared in the video with her face up. Chen Yu would never get tired of looking at that breathtaking face.

"The flight tomorrow afternoon is probably around noon on the 18th..."

"Really?"

Liu Yifei was so shocked that she jumped up from the sofa: "You didn't lie to me?"

"No, when have I ever lied to you?"

"Then I'll pick you up!"

The joy on Liu Yifei's face can be seen with the naked eye, and her whole body is radiant.

"Okay, did you miss me?"

"In no mood!"

Liu Yifei's mouth curled up, and Chen Yu smiled: "Then I don't want to either!"

"Then why did you video call me?"

Someone shook his head proudly, and Chen Yu said happily: "I'll hit one by the way to see if you get up!"

"So you still want to do that?"

Liu Yifei suddenly sighed, staring at Chen Yu on the computer screen, and said quietly, "Hubby, please come back soon. I'm so bored at home!"

"Well, wait for me!"

"I'm starting the countdown now..."

The two of them were talking sweetly on the phone for nearly an hour before Liu Yifei reluctantly hung up.

She was in high spirits and became happier the more we talked.

Poor Chen Yu, it was already early morning and he was extremely sleepy.

In the end, Xiao Liu showed some consideration for Chen Yu and let him take a shower and go to bed.

……

2007 5 Month 18 Day.

Chen Yu finally returned to the imperial capital he had not visited for a long time.

Liu Yifei, with her long black hair and sunglasses, stood there with a unique temperament in the crowd. Many people looked at her from time to time.

The crowd was a little chaotic and many people recognized her.

Several bodyguards were protecting her with great effort, as were the airport security. Fortunately, Liu Yifei had just arrived. She had made an appointment with Chen Yu, who had just got off the plane, to meet at the exit. She really couldn't wait any longer.

So the time is consistent.

"Yifei!"

Chen Yu waved to Liu Yifei from a distance.

This is too much. Even though it is a VIP channel, there are still countless people standing by.

By the time they realized that Chen Yu was on the same flight as them, Chen Yu was already holding Liu Yifei's hand and walking quickly towards the parking lot.

"Chen Yu!!"

"Chan!"

Countless people were screaming and shouting and chasing after them.

"Haha~~~"

It was the first time that Liu Yifei came to pick up someone at the airport in person. This scene was very exciting and made her laugh all the way. Her long hair matched her swaying figure in her long skirt, making her look as beautiful as a painting.

"Did you do it on purpose?"

Chen Yu was running wildly, looking at Liu Yifei who was smiling brightly beside him.

"Not really, I just want to personally experience the feeling of picking up my boyfriend!"

Now, Liu Yifei felt it.

That was the love that emerged when longing turned into reality, just like when she looked at Chen Yu now, there was a sweetness that melted into her heart.

But the consequences were serious, and there was some riot throughout the airport.

Sometimes, as a public figure, you have no choice.

Wow!

After the two people got in the car, the driver drove quickly out of the airport.

"Whoo~~~"

Chen Yu was panting and hugging Liu Yifei, whose chest was also rising and falling.

The two of them looked at each other affectionately, and their breathing became more rapid. The next second, they were hugging each other.

"Huchi~~Huchi~~"

The two people exchanged each other's breath, and the temperature in the back seat seemed to rise a little.

The couple's passion lasted for more than ten minutes before they both stared at each other, panting.

"Going home?"

Liu Yifei bit her lip and looked at Chen Yu seductively.

"My parents are home, is your mom home?"

"No, she went to the company!"

Now the agency department of Chen Yu's company is taken over by Liu Xiaoli, who has devoted a lot of energy to this work.

I really enjoy the happiness that this career brings me.

"Then let's go to your house!"

Half an hour later, Chen Yu and Liu Yifei arrived at her house.

As soon as the door was closed, the enclosed space became a world for two of them.

The two of them couldn't wait to kiss passionately all the way to the bathroom, eagerly enjoying the joy of reunion.

……

"How long do you plan to stay at home this time?"

It was almost dark outside. Liu Yifei, with her hair scattered on the bed, turned around and asked Chen Yu who was lying beside her.

Two people were in her boudoir.

"Don't go!"

Chen Yu smiled at her and kissed her.

"I do not believe!"

"You're not going to the United States to film?"

Liu Yifei doesn't really ask about Chen Yu's schedule because she understands Chen Yu's ambitions.

Just like Chen Yu understood her.

"Not going yet!"

"We need to make our version of The Grand Budapest Hotel!"

"Oh?"

Liu Yifei lay down beside Chen Yu and teased him with her hair: "So soon?"

“If we shoot, it will probably be around August or September!”

“It takes a lot of time to prepare in advance!”

"But, from now on, we should meet more often!"

Whether it is Venice or the filming of "Budapest", Liu Yifei will participate.

Therefore, the pain of separation like before should not happen again.

When Liu Yifei heard this, she stood up suddenly and looked at Chen Yu with twinkling eyes: "Are we going to be together every day from now on?"

"probably!"

"What do you mean by should?"

Liu Yifei punched Chen Yu twice in the chest with her little fist.

"It still depends on someone, I don't care!"

"Cut~~"

Liu Yifei suddenly fell on Chen Yu, hugged him tightly, and murmured, "It's great!"

“I really hope it will always be like this!”

"Yes, I will take you with me when I go to America!"

Never separate again.

"Ok!"

Liu Yifei clung to Chen Yu's arms like a kitten until she heard the door open downstairs and Liu Xiaoli's voice: "Xixi?"

"what?"

Liu Yifei finally reacted: "Oh no, my mom is back!"

It's like being caught cheating.

"What are you afraid of!"

Chen Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Auntie knows that we are in love!"

"That can't be the case!"

Liu Yifei was putting on her clothes and yelled, "Mom, I'm upstairs!"

"Put on some clothes!"

Liu Yifei slapped Chen Yu.

Chen Yu then slowly put on his clothes, but he could already hear the tapping sound of slippers coming up the stairs.

Liu Yifei was fixing her hair, but Chen Yu opened her door, smiled at Liu Xiaoli who had just come upstairs, and waved: "Aunt Liu~~~"

"..."

Liu Xiaoli was stunned for a while before she came back to her senses: "Ah... Xiao... Xiao Chen, you are here too?"

"Oh no, you're back?"

"Well, I just arrived in the capital this afternoon, and Yifei went to pick me up!"

Liu Xiaoli's expression was somewhat amusing. As someone who had experienced this, it was clear to her that she understood the truth. She glanced at Chen Yu unhappily, then managed a smile. She had already noticed Liu Yifei hiding behind Chen Yu.

She made a face at her mother, leaned on Chen Yu's shoulder, bit her lip and laughed.

"You two..."

Liu Xiaoli didn't know what to say, so she just glared at Liu Yifei and said, "Let's eat?"

"My parents should have done it, Auntie, can you join Yifei?"

"I'm going to tell your parents!"

Liu Xiaoli said this angrily, then turned and went downstairs.

Liu Yifei shrugged at Chen Yu.

"It's okay, this day will come sooner or later!"

"Raw rice cooked into cooked rice..."

Chen Yu was joking there, and Liu Yifei hit him twice with her knee from behind.

The two of them went downstairs laughing and joking, and Chen Yu finally returned to his home. Shen Xiaoqin looked at the two people who appeared at the door of her house and thought they had just arrived home, so she hurriedly said enthusiastically: "Come in, come in!"

"Auntie, I'm here to eat and drink again!"

Liu Yifei called out sweetly, and Shen Xiaoqin smiled happily: "How can you say that you are eating and drinking for free? It's my own home. I'm not like some people who go home less often than they visit relatives!"

Chen Yu: "..."

So I'm an outsider now.

Chen Yu returned to his long-missed home, and suddenly the cell phone in his pocket rang.

"Yes, Director Diao!"

Chen Yu answered the phone. It was Diao Yinan calling.

"The sample film is ready. When will the screening be held?"

"If you want to enter Venice, it's best to find some judges from previous years to watch your film, and also find a big European distributor!"

"Okay, I'll come find someone right away!"

It is actually very necessary to hold a film screening in advance.

Especially award-winning films.

This actually means building relationships and building connections in advance.

Although the president of this year's Venice Film Festival, Marco Polo, is one of us, the jury members and the president also have to greet each other.

After all, Lao Ma can only control half of the jury.

As for the other half, the more you can handle, the better your chances of winning.

"What's wrong?"

Liu Yifei brought the fruit to Chen Yu.

"Good thing!"

"This time, I'll make sure you get the prize!"

Chen Yu couldn't wait any longer.

"What prize?"

Liu Yifei still didn't understand.

"The best actress in Venice!"

"..."

Liu Yifei's beautiful eyes flickered, and she smiled slightly, "Are you so sure?"

"Well, watch the finished film and you'll know!" (End of this chapter)
