Starting from Taohuawu, kilometers away

The morning sun shines into the studio, and the air is filled with a faint aroma of coffee. The crew members come and go, busy preparing for a day of filming. Li Cheng, wearing the school uniform in the play, eats a cold prop popsicle while helping the prop team carry the heavy background board.

He had a relaxed smile on his face, the polyester material of his school uniform shone slightly in the sun, and sweat slowly slid down his forehead, but he didn't seem to notice. Suddenly, the teacher from the props group came over and reminded him sternly: "Don't eat anymore, Li Cheng! These popsicles are prepared for filming. If you eat like this, there will be no props for filming later."

Li Cheng stopped what he was doing, the ice on the corner of his mouth had not yet completely melted, he blinked and looked at the teacher with a little innocence. Although the teacher's words were reproachful, Li Cheng understood that this was for the smooth progress of the filming, he quickly put the popsicle back to its original place and threw himself into his busy work.

"You're getting scolded again!"

Sun Qian's voice came from behind Li Cheng.

"Hai, I ate a little too much."

Li Cheng pointed to the popsicles prepared by the props team. He had already eaten two since he arrived here in the morning.

"Morning!"

"morning!"

"morning!"

Li Yutong, who plays Hu Qiumin, also arrived on the set.

“It’s a bit hot today.”

"Yeah, I was sweating all over when I came here from the hotel just now."

Hearing the conversation between the two, Li Cheng, who was sitting far away, turned his eyes and asked, "Do you two want to eat popsicles?"

"Have it?"

Li Yutong was a little excited, she wanted to cool down.

Sun Qian quickly stopped him and said, "Hey, hey, hey, don't listen to Li Cheng. He was just eating the props from the prop team over there. Someone said that you shouldn't be fooled."

"Ah? Cheng Cheng ate the props from the prop team again?"

Li Yutong didn't expect that Li Cheng had not changed his bad habits. Three days had passed since the SSF incident. Except for filming, Li Cheng kept a sufficient distance from the actresses in the crew. When they were acting together, they would gather together. When he went to Jia Bing's place for dinner, he would stay away from her.

Sun Qian looked at Li Cheng who was 10 meters away and shouted, "Hey, you've been shooting for nights, are you halfway through?"

"Yes, the three of us, Brother Bing, Sister Zeng Li and I, worked overtime every day and filmed a lot."

"No, why are you so anxious? It's only been less than half a month since we started filming, and you're almost halfway through!"

Sun Qian didn't understand why Li Cheng was in such a hurry. It took more than two months for other people to finish shooting other TV series, but Li Cheng only finished half of it in nearly half a month!

"I have another drama that will start filming soon, at the end of the month, and Brother Bing also has a movie. We don't have many parts in this drama, and they are all your parts."

Li Cheng shrugged. It was the first time he felt that the male protagonist had so little plot, as if he was only the male protagonist in name only, but the real male protagonist was someone else.

"Well, Brother Bing is really busy. I heard he has three more movies coming up."

"Yes, otherwise why are we so anxious?"

Li Cheng also found out in the past two days that Jia Bing had several movies waiting to be filmed. If this drama hadn't had a short plot, he might not have agreed to come.

"So what are we going to shoot today?"

Li Yutong looked at the two of them and asked curiously.

"I don't know. The director hasn't said anything yet."

"I don't know either. We'll know when Director Xing comes."

Neither Li Cheng nor Sun Qian knew.

"Well, it's useless to ask you two."

Li Yutong had no choice but to give up. After this period of contact, she discovered that Li Cheng was really a person who only allowed strangers to stay away. He was completely different from when he first came.

Li Cheng thought of a question, looked at the two girls, and said, "Shall we play a little game today?"

"what game?"

"What game?"

The two girls became excited when they heard about playing games.

"Whoever says the wrong line today will get a 10 yuan red envelope, do you want to play?"

Li Cheng looked at the two of them with a teasing look.

"Is it ten dollars per time or ten dollars per word?"

When Sun Qian heard that there was money to be made, he decided to play.

"That must be ten dollars per word. It would be boring if it was more than ten dollars per word!"

Li Cheng looked at the silent Li Yutong again and asked, "Are you coming?"

"Come on! Who's afraid of who? I'm sure I won't make a single mistake today!"

Li Yutong felt a little guilty after she finished speaking. After all, she was the one who always got her lines wrong when the three of them were filming, followed by Sun Qian. The two of them were about the same. However, Li Cheng really got every word wrong. Even if the script was changed on the spot, Li Cheng could still completely reproduce the lines the director had just said.

"Then why don't you charge 10 yuan per word? How about 50 yuan for each laugh?"

Sun Qian is not stupid. If Li Cheng gets the lines wrong, he will just be making money. With his memory, she has really seen it.

"OK! I'll give you two 50 yuan each for every time I laugh. If either of you makes a mistake in your lines, please be more aware of it and give the reward to the one who made the mistake!"

"no problem!"

"bring it on!"
-
The sun penetrated the mist and sprinkled gently on the intricate movie set, just like a quaint place in Dongying, Shandong, with stone bridges, deep alleys, black-sailed boats floating lightly, and oil-paper umbrellas swaying. Li Cheng stood on the bridge, and he should have been elegant, but he couldn't help but raise his mouth and laugh. His eyes met Sun Qian, and she couldn't help laughing, and her pretty face flushed, as if even the green willow branches were drooping for this relaxing moment.

"I'm sorry, director, I... I really couldn't help it." Li Cheng explained to the director apologetically.

The director shook his head helplessly, but his eyes were full of teasing. Sun Qian tried to return to the role, but suddenly forgot the lines and looked embarrassed.

"I can't do it anymore. I've forgotten all my lines." Sun Qian sighed.

Li Yutong, who was standing by, seemed particularly nervous. She clenched the script in her hand, took a deep breath, and tried to suppress her inner anxiety. Her eyes fell on the lines on the script, and her fingers trembled unconsciously, fearing that she would say something wrong accidentally.

"You two, stop laughing. You're disturbing Yutong." The director's words carried a hint of blame.

Li Cheng and Sun Qian smiled at each other, quickly put away their smiles, and got back into character. Li Yutong closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down.

Although their little episodes brought laughter to the crew, at the critical moment of shooting, everyone had to concentrate on the final product, for the common commitment and pursuit. Under the sun, the film set became quiet again, leaving only the slight sound of the camera and the actors' dedicated performances.

After the show ended, Li Cheng said, "Hurry up and make some money! I only laughed once, but you two made several mistakes!"

"Okay, okay! Here you go! I'll give it to you right away!"

Sun Qian was also willing to accept the loss and immediately took out his phone to transfer the money. "I'll transfer it to you right away, really! You laughed on purpose!"

Li Yutong was also speechless. The scene where Li Cheng jumped into the water from the bridge was intentional, just to make her forget her lines!

"Then don't worry about it. I only laughed once. You two make mistakes so often!"

Li Cheng looked at the money transfer between the two and knew that tonight's extra meal had been settled.

"Hey, hey, hey, where are you going? Are you leaving after the photo shoot?"

Seeing Li Cheng trying to run away, Sun Qian immediately stopped him.

"Sister, I'm soaked to the skin. I have to change my clothes!"

Li Cheng tugged at his clothes. He was soaked all over. If he didn't change his clothes, he would catch a cold.

"Hurry up and go! See you at the next venue!"

Li Yutong also signaled Li Cheng to go quickly to avoid catching a cold.

Li Cheng ran to the crew to change his clothes, otherwise he would really catch a cold.

Time flies and the day of Li Cheng's completion is getting closer. During this period, Li Cheng also went to celebrate Xiaotian's birthday. The blessing on that day instantly became a hot search on Weibo and DY hot list. After he returned to the crew, yxh came up on the Internet to summarize Li Cheng.

'It turns out that if they don't work hard, they really have to go home to inherit the family property. The first one is lh. lh is a famous young master in the Beijing circle. It only takes him fifteen minutes to get home after the Spring Festival Gala. His remarks instantly made the netizens explode. According to the range he mentioned, netizens found that there are many military compounds in this range.'

'The second one is Su Xing. As the runner-up of Happy Boys, Su Xing's family affairs have always attracted much attention. His grandfather was an anti-Japanese fighter and lived in Wuhan Jiangjun Building after retirement. His grandmother also worked in the Commission for Discipline Inspection. His father was a cadre in the government and later went into business. Now he is the chairman of the operating company of the botanical garden. His mother is a university professor. No wonder Su Xing said in an interview that he admitted that he had been unsuccessful, but if you insist on saying that he was miserable, he really couldn't say it.'

'The third one is Ma Boqian, who is also a wealthy man in Xi'an. He talked to my father about 500 million yuan and he also has a winery.'

'The fourth one is Li Cheng. His father used to be a firefighter, his mother used to be a famous doctor, his eldest aunt is the famous actress Li Bingbing, and his youngest aunt is the boss of a famous film and television company. LH once said that Li Cheng's cousin was his childhood friend. It can be imagined that it is his mother's relationship. Li Cheng's background is probably also red. At an event in Hainan, the son of the sponsor behaved intimately with him. Some people said that he was his cousin. According to this statement, the editor dug up the video of Li Cheng when he was an athlete. He was always picked up by luxury cars.'

When Li Cheng saw this dy on the set, he was speechless. These people really have a lot of imagination. He is not a rich second generation.

"Cheng Cheng! Get ready, the shooting will start soon!"

"Okay Director Xing, here I come."

Li Cheng immediately handed the phone to Xiao Wang, took a look at the script and began to build up his emotions. Today was his final scene, and after nearly 20 days of hard work, it was finally over.

"Be quiet on the scene! Get ready to shoot!"

"Camera, recording on!"

"Everyone cooperate, let's start now!"

The voices of heads of various departments were heard at the scene.

Li Cheng sat on the sofa, looked at the notebook in his hand and took a deep breath. There were no lines today, only emotional performances.

"3! 2! 1! Start!"

Li Cheng was instantly immersed in the role.

Li Cheng's emotions were like being poured with ice water, and he instantly felt cold from head to toe. He sat blankly on a chair in the room, and the surroundings were so quiet that he could only hear his own breathing and heartbeat.

He looked at the bits and pieces of his childhood and childhood in the notebook. Those laughter and tears in the past have become so dazzling now. His eyes wandered between those familiar handwritings. The edge of the notebook has been slightly tilted, as if it was carrying the weight of too many memories. Every stroke evoked memories of the past, those carefree childhood days, those laughter and tears in youth, like a scroll of paintings unfolding before his eyes.

His hands were shaking slightly, as if he couldn't even bear the weight of the notebook. An indescribable feeling surged in his heart, a mixture of shock, fear, unwillingness and powerlessness.

Suddenly, his vision became blurry, and he felt an unprecedented loneliness and helplessness. His family's concealment and his friends' abnormal behavior were like an invisible mountain pressing down on his heart, making it almost impossible for him to breathe. He wanted to shout and talk to someone, but he found that his throat seemed to be tightly strangled by something and he couldn't make a sound.

The light in the room became soft, and the wind outside gently blew through the curtains, bringing a hint of coolness. Li Cheng hugged the notebook tightly, as if he could catch the time that was disappearing. His tears wet the paper, and the ink spread in sadness, blurring the handwriting, but unable to erase those precious memories.

Emotions surged like a tide, and his cries echoed in the room, gradually, gradually, becoming calm and sad. At this moment, he was alone facing the boundary between life and death, feeling the fragility and preciousness of life that he had never experienced before.

When the staff at the scene saw Li Cheng's scene, their fingers couldn't help but stretch to the corners of their eyes, and a soothing feeling instantly appeared between their fingers.

Director Xing couldn't help himself behind the screen. He felt that Li Cheng really thought of him as Li Si. That was the grief and helplessness deep in his heart, and it was the most real emotional catharsis when facing the end of life.

"Crack!"

After the director shouted this, no one made a sound at the scene, and Li Cheng's crying was still echoing in the room.

"Cheng Cheng acted really well."

Seeing that Li Cheng had not yet gotten out of the act, Tian Yu patted Liu Lin who was wiping her tears.

"Of course. Cheng Cheng's final performance made me feel that he was either Li Cheng or Li Si in the play."

Liu Lin took the tissue handed to her by Sun Qian and wiped her eyes. When she saw the tears in Li Cheng's eyes, she had already started crying.

Li Qing, Qi Yuchen and others were also stunned. Is this the top actor of the new generation? The performance is so empathetic.

Li Yutong wiped her tears and whispered to Sun Qian: "Cheng Cheng acted so well. I couldn't help it the moment he cried."

"Me too, I didn't expect that he had been holding back on his acting before."

Sun Qian thought about the feeling of acting opposite Li Cheng during this period. She didn't expect that Li Cheng had been holding back. After seeing this performance, she realized that his acting skills were better than hers, and much better. She finally understood why CCTV was willing to ask Li Cheng to act in the TV series that were broadcast on satellite TV. Who wouldn't like this acting? It was much better than those idols, not even on the same level.

Li Cheng's crying gradually made him laugh. He looked aside and said, "Brother, paper."

"call"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Li Cheng’s words, and Li Cheng cried for five minutes after it was over!

Xiao Wang immediately handed over the tissue and asked cautiously, "Brother, is the play over?"

"It's okay, it's fine once you've vented."

Li Cheng knows too well that many actors cannot get out of their roles. Li Bingbing and Wang Jinsong have taught him a lot in this regard.

"Congratulations to Cheng Cheng for finishing the film!"

"Congratulations to Cheng Cheng for finishing the film!"

"Congratulations to Cheng Cheng for finishing the film!"

"."

Shouts were immediately heard at the scene, and Li Cheng bowed to all the staff and colleagues. He was the only one left in their Li family. Zeng Li and Jia Bing had finished filming and left a few days ago, so it was his turn this time.

Li Cheng took the flowers and said to everyone, "I won't bother you anymore. I have a game tomorrow and I'm on a flight this afternoon. I need to meet up with my teammates. Sorry."

"It's okay! Good luck in the game!"

"Yes! Good luck in the competition! Win another championship!"

“Come on Cheng Cheng!”

"Come on!" (End of this chapter)
