The two girls turned to look, and the person speaking was none other than He Tianran. At this moment, he was accompanied by Li Wang, who had accidentally overheard the content and looked embarrassed.
Over the past six hundred days, the 20-year-old He Tianran has grown two centimeters taller, reaching 185cm in height. In front of him, he has long hair tied up, his hands in his pockets, and a sports bag slung across his shoulders. He has been standing for a long time. Aerobic exercise and boxing training made his forearm muscles exposed under his black T-shirt, which was very beautiful. When he stood tall and strong, he looked really brave, handsome and high-spirited.
However, although he still had a gentle smile on his face, after Wen Liang saw him, he immediately looked at his best friend fiercely.
Wen Liang combined with the question Sheng Qidong had been asking him. Don't think too much. He must have been sent by He Tianran to find out his true identity. Otherwise, how could he have met by such a chance!
"I...I just asked Wangzi to come over for a drink. I knew Director He was with him, but I didn't tip him off. Don't look at me..."
Sheng Qidong turned away with a guilty conscience, probably because she was afraid that Wen Liang's outburst would harm her. When she saw the two boys approaching, she stood up and took Li Wang's hand as if running away.
"Are you thirsty? Let's go for a walk, we can buy some drinks!"
"Ah? What...I..."
Poor Li Wang was pulled away again by Sheng Qidong before he even sat down...
He Tianran watched them leave with a smile and took the seat in front of Sheng Qidong.
Wen Liang crossed his arms and looked away.
"Why did you block me? I can't even contact you."
"You know and you still ask?"
"Hey...it's been two days, and you're still angry? You didn't treat me well at the band rehearsal yesterday. You didn't come home all day long. You ran back to the dormitory to live quietly. I thought you were missing. If it hadn't been for Gu Ling sent me a message and I almost called the police.”
He Tianran, who was scolded, kept a good expression, Wen Liang pushed his hair behind his ears, slowly looked directly at him, frowned and said:
"Now I have to inform you of everything I do, right? He Tianran, it was fine if you stopped me from signing the company before. After all, you had discussions with me at that time, but now you just let me know without even asking me. My audition opportunity was pushed forward. It was an opportunity arranged by Teacher Long for me. I have been quietly preparing for this for a long time. This has nothing to do with you and whether I am the lead singer of INTERESTING, you know? You know this time unacceptable!"
He Tianran listened quietly, the smile on his face unchanged.
Being able to curse people at least meant that Wen Liang had something to say to him, which was a good thing.
Since the memories of Wen Liang's rebirth gradually disappeared, her strong personality in the past has become more and more assertive. Without the blessing of future experiences, she, now a junior, can't help but feel anxious about her future acting career.
The classmates in their class began to plan for the future one after another. Those who joined the group joined the group, signed contracts, and took the postgraduate entrance exams. If that were the case, it would be okay. After all, Wen Liang was not a girl who was eager for quick success and quick gains, and was very ambitious.
He Tianran knew very well that she just had a stronger nature, especially around him.
The success of INTERESTING made them famous, but from Wen Liang's current perspective, this success only belongs to He Tianran. He is the soul. Even if the band had a female lead singer at that time, they would still be able to achieve what they are today. Achievement.
The warm memories of the past are still there, and the two have experienced so many twists and turns together through Qianfan. The girl will not care so much at all. She will only sincerely enjoy the hard-won happiness that He Tianran has with her.
But it's different now. As the memory fades, this happiness has become a burden. Whether it is He Tianran's family background, talent, or his achievements, this has made the proud Wen Liang Feeling stressed.
She was admitted to the film school with first place, and she was the proud one who had always had high hopes from her teachers. Her excellence from childhood to adulthood shaped her competitive character, but when did she change her mind? Has she become a little woman who only knows love and love? Even if I take on a role now, it will attract gossip from others, saying that it is because of my boyfriend...
This model of getting along with a strong man and a weak woman is okay at first. After all, everyone starts from the same starting point. However, a woman with a fiery personality will one day have to prove herself in her own field. …
She held her breath, she was still young, she liked taking risks, she was very competitive, she had her own plans and fantasies for the future that had become unknown, and she would not settle down to be a rich man with an untroubled life. too.
From the current Wen Liang's point of view, she and He Tianran were so evenly matched that they were matched against each other.
This is good, because it is impossible for an ordinary boy to suppress her like this, and she will not love her.
But this is also very bad, because it makes the love and conflicts between them so obvious and distinct.
Therefore, He Tianran's self-initiation this time naturally became a trigger. Wen Liang, who had lost his memory, exploded under the anxiety and pressure accumulated for a long time.
Not far away, Sheng Qidong and Li Wang, who were quietly eating melon, had found a good viewing position. Sheng Qidong stared in the direction of He Tianran and Wen Liang and asked:
"It feels like Ah Liang is really angry this time. What do you think Director He should do?"
Li Wang remains optimistic about this:
"Don't worry, as a director, even if it is not taught in school, he will definitely have a skill, which is to communicate with actors. When necessary, he must also consider the other party's emotions and choose some nice words to coax. In this field, Director He Children have always been top-notch.”
Sheng Qidong looked at him with a strange expression and asked, "Then when I deliberately made trouble with you before and talked to you about serious matters, you also deliberately chose the words I wanted to hear to perfuse me?"
Li Wang knew he had made a mistake and quickly changed the topic:
"Ahem...look at them, look at them..."
Over here, He Tianran faced Wen Liang's attack and didn't say much. He just took out a paper document from his sports bag and put it on the table, then slowly pushed it in front of his girlfriend.
Wen Liang lowered his eyes and asked angrily, "What is this?"
He Tianran said warmly: "Look first, while you look at me, I will tell you..."
She had just scolded him, but the other party was still neither anxious nor annoyed, which made Wen Liang a little at a loss. She actually hoped to have a big quarrel with He Tianran, because letting out emotions would be more conducive to the relationship between lovers. , and the current situation makes Wen Liang feel that he is making trouble unreasonably...
There was no other way. The girl had to endure it and flipped through the documents that had been sorted out in front of her.
On the first page of the catalog, there are five eye-catching bold characters in Song font - "Love When the Rose Withers".
"Script?"
"yes."
"So thick?"
"You take a look first."
Wen Liang picked it up and weighed it in his hands. Since she was often exposed to this type of text, the girl could roughly estimate the word count of the script based on the number of pages, weight, and the number of scenes in the final script.
Generally speaking, the number of words in the script of a feature-length movie will fluctuate between 25,000 and 50,000, which is positively correlated with the length of the film. The script in Wen Liang’s hand has at least 70,000 words. , if the amount of information in these words is enough, then the final film will be two hundred minutes long without deletions...
Scripts of this size are only slightly more common in literary films.
"When did you write it?"
"It wasn't written by me, it was the work of a second-year senior in our directing department."
Wen Liang lowered his head and looked at it carefully. He Tianran took advantage of this gap to order something for himself. After about fifteen minutes, after his girlfriend was fully involved in the plot, he said softly:
"The senior sister has been writing this book intermittently for three or four years. She participated in the Pingyao Film Festival's venture capital project a few months ago and was unanimously favored by industry insiders. However, it may be an art film with a special subject matter and high risks, so the follow-up The market negotiations were delayed for some time. Fortunately, she recently secured funds and started preliminary preparations. Now she is also in the actor audition stage..."
He Tianran's words were to the point, and the meaning was obvious.
This kind of film usually goes to domestic and foreign film festivals, and there is definitely no domestic market in terms of box office. Therefore, most of the income after filming relies on overseas distribution. If it is shortlisted for Class A film festivals, then it is completely possible to talk about Europe. and box office share in Japan and South Korea.
And this "When the Rose Fades" happened to be shortlisted for the best film in the main competition section of the Venice International Film Festival the following year. Although it failed to win anything in the end, it did win a lot of awards at the next-level film festival. Over and over, it can be said that the scenery is infinite.
Wen Liang told He Tianran before that she liked this movie very much and wanted to get to know this director majoring sister when she was in school. However, everyone was in school at the time and she was busy filming, so she missed it. There has never been a chance.
But now, with He Tianran's guidance, Wen Liang can unknowingly make up for this regret.
For an entire hour, after carefully reading the script, Wen Liang breathed a sigh of relief. Then she looked excited, raised her head and asked:
"When are the auditions?"
He Tianran took out his mobile phone and said with a wry smile:
"You add me as a friend first."
