Love Game [Entertainment]

There is a movie theater in the film and television city, but, to be on the safe side, the two deliberately chose a small movie theater on the outskirts of the city.

Even though they knew that no one would pay attention to them, the two couldn't help but disguised themselves like thieves, and sneaked through the ticket gate to enter the screening hall.

"Light and Shadow" is approaching its next run, even though the movie theater they chose is relatively remote, half of the seats are still full.

They were a little late, and the movie had already started showing.Facing the seat on the movie ticket, the two held hands and walked to the back seat under the dim light on the screen.

The audience is mainly concentrated in the middle front row, and the audience closest to them is separated by three rows, and only half of the back of the black head can be seen by the light.

After sitting firmly, Chen Xi looked up at the screen.

The beginning of the film has passed, and the golden scroll is slowly spreading on the screen, the rapeseed field is blooming brilliantly, the butterflies are dancing, and the pedestrians on the village road are warmly greeting each other... The camera slowly zooms in and penetrates into one of the houses A few children were reciting books in the courtyard, a rocking chair under the shade of a tree, and a man in a gray-white gown was lying on it, shaking slightly, with a book covering his face.

Before coming here, Chen Xi had read the introduction of "Light and Shadow", and knew that it was a story with a warm beginning and a sad ending.Some people say that this is both a tragedy and a comedy. The hero and heroine calmly did not choose to be together, which is the best ending for each other.Some people also joked that it is precisely in this way that the audience can be tricked into tears, making people swipe again and again, willing to be abused, and satisfying themselves with imagination.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Huo Yangzhou.The other party was engrossed in the plot and didn't notice his gaze.In the film, Huo Yangzhou still has the spirit of a young man, arguing plausibly with the old-fashioned scholars of the former dynasty.The sun is warm and shines through the window lattice into the house.He exchanged glances with the scholar's daughter who suddenly barged in, and moved away angrily.

Speaking of which, there are so many emotional scenes in this film... Chen Xi suddenly remembered this episode.For professional reasons, he knew it was inevitable, but when he thought that his partner was Su Qiqi, he didn't feel very comfortable.Huo Yangzhou said that it was Su Qiqi who stuck with him and fired him. Later, the two formed a team together in "Game of Love", oh, and won the first place, and won the title of "Best CP".Before, Huo Yangzhou almost lived in the filming crew except for the necessary film promotion. Chen Xi also knew that he had no personal contact with Su Qiqi.

However, I still can't help but care about these inexplicable things...

Now that the movie is broadcast, there are so many people watching it.Is the CP popularity of the two rising or falling?Chen Xi couldn't help but took out his phone to check.

"Not good-looking?" Huo Yangzhou leaned on Chen Xi's shoulder and read out the question on the search bar in a low voice, "Is there a kiss scene in "Light and Shadow"?"

Chen Xi was startled, and almost lost his grip on the phone and dropped it.Hurrying to fork off the page, even if Huo Yangzhou stopped talking, he still felt hot in his ears.

Isn't it too stingy to be like this.Not daring to look at Huo Yangzhou's face, Chen Xi pretended to be calm: "After watching for a long time, I saw you and Su Qiqi looking at each other and then they disappeared. It's so boring."

Yes, halfway through the film, the hero and heroine are still at this stage.

Huo Yangzhou laughed lowly: "The director doesn't want the audience to only pay attention to the feelings of the hero and heroine..." The emotions in it are so obscure that there is almost no affection between the hero and heroine.

That's why Zheng Liu hoped that Huo Yangzhou wouldn't get into an argument with Su Qiqi all of a sudden.There are too few emotions in the film to satisfy the audience's imagination. He hopes that those who have never seen the film outside the film can be tricked into it by the interaction between Su Qiqi and Huo Yangzhou.Anyway, if you enter the movie theater, you can put his plot into it, and the feelings and so on are just floating clouds.

"The emotions in this film can't even be called love." Huo Yangzhou said, "The meeting of eyes is the most intense emotional scene."

Chen Xi couldn't understand: "What does the director think?" In today's movies, there is basically an emotion, although it may not be the focus, but it must be expressed to some extent.

"The plot is still very good." He reached out and snatched Chen Xi's phone, "When I first saw the script, I liked it very much. I was full of bookishness, full of enthusiasm, and ran for my ideals..." Finally, I calmly died.

In an extremely special era, it is lively and lonely, progressive and backward.The actual experience of the hero is in contradiction with his ideal society, and the gap with the heroine is also very different.The scholar's daughter was very interested in what the scholar said, and came to him quietly behind his father's back.He taught the heroine advanced knowledge, expected her to make changes, and heard her call "Little Mister" in a joking tone, but in the end he lost to the anger of her old scholar father.

When the war broke out, the two were displaced and separated from each other.When they met again, the scholar died of illness, and the heroine also changed from a scholarly lady in a small town to a courtesan in the bustling Bund. The hero was still wearing a long gown with a sharp pen pinned to the edge of the pocket, and kept struggling.

Chen Xi didn't dare to get his phone back even though his phone was confiscated, so he turned his head and concentrated on watching the movie.Indeed, as Huo Yangzhou said, the relationship between the hero and heroine in the whole movie is not strong, but the audience outside the movie can feel the undercurrent surging between them.

"Huo Yangzhou..." Chen Xi already had a bad premonition in his heart, "Are you going to die?"

"..." Huo Yangzhou paused, "What do you think? Do you want me to die?"

He didn't know how to tell Chen Xi, but judging by his appearance, he was already fully involved in the plot.It is clearly stated in the script that the male protagonist died calmly. In the final filming, the death scene was not clearly shown, but it was not much worse.

"It doesn't count if I say it." Chen Xi stared at the screen, "It's all over...why didn't you say anything about this introduction..."

He was extremely nervous, but fortunately there were not many people in the back row, and Huo Yangzhou was the male lead, he knew the plot well, and he could hear him whining and complaining to ease his tension.

If the introduction said that the male protagonist will die, many people would be afraid to read it.Zheng Liu is a great director, and he also has his own arrogance. On the one hand, he is afraid that no one will watch the box office, and on the other hand, he is afraid that too many publicity spoilers will lose the mystery of the movie.Besides, if everyone is happy with this movie, it won't have that sense of the times.

Quietly holding Chen Xi's hand on the armrest, Huo Yangzhou said: "He is not dead." At least at the end, he is not dead.

——After all, he didn't want to see Chen Xi sad.

The gold was falling to the west, the scrolls on the wall were heated by the sun, and the light and shadow reflected on the ground were long and short.

The hostess is alone, with black hair curled up high, gorgeous makeup, wearing a delicate and gorgeous silk cheongsam, with beautiful natural curves wrapped around her.The high-heeled shoes stepped on the dirt and passed through the large golden rapeseed flowers. The partners who came and went on the village road no longer knew her.Listening to her description, I suddenly remembered that this is the elegant and beautiful scholar's daughter, and those who had studied with her had sneaked away to peek at her.

Now that they are so beautiful and rich, they dare not recognize each other.

She stood still outside the house, and heard the sound of children reading loudly from inside.

"Sir..." She didn't dare to knock on the door or go in, she called him softly, "Mr. Xiao..."

The children in the yard stopped reading, peeked at her through the crack of the door, and then ran away, shouting loudly: "Sir, we have a visitor, what a beautiful sister!"

The gentleman on the rocking chair moved slightly, and slowly raised his hand to take down the book on his face.As he moved, the fabric at the heart gradually turned red, and blood spread across his chest.Pale face, almost transparent lips, trying to get up from the recliner, but can only sit up straight...

Some in the projection hall couldn't hold it anymore, and they covered their mouths and cried out loudly.

Chen Xi stared at the screen without blinking, his breathing almost stopped, his fingers clenched the palms of the people around him: "Huo Yangzhou..."

There was no emotional drama, but the emotion shown by Huo Yangzhou made him want to cry.

"Don't die..." He had already entered completely.

Following the weak light source on the screen, Huo Yangzhou clearly saw the red corners of his eyes, and his heart moved, a hand quietly climbed onto Chen Xi's shoulder from behind and embraced him.

The last shot.

The scroll on the gentleman's face fell off, and the pages were turned quickly, a page of yellowed letter paper fell out, and an old photo was brought out.Inside was a young lady scholar. The two of them looked at the camera nervously and left this photo with their green eyes.

A gust of wind blew by, and the large rapeseed field outside the house swayed, and white and golden butterflies flew from it, shaking off a little bit of gold dust.

With a plain face and no heavy makeup in the past, the heroine is wearing a plain black dress from her school days. The non-wrinkled skirt is just below her knees, and it is gently swaying in the wind.She gently recited the principles he taught in those years, reciting one by one, and walked into the depths of the cauliflower.

--ended.

"You lied to me!" Chen Xi blinked, tears fell from the corners of his eyes, "You are dead..."

The lights in the projection hall were brightly lit, and loud sobbing sounded, and some audience members shouted "I can't stand it" while wiping tears.

Huo Yangzhou's expression remained unchanged, and he glanced at the end credits of the movie. There was a long credit list, and his name was at the top.

The performance of the film is relatively ambiguous about the death scene of the male protagonist at the end, but the audience can understand it after a little thought.

"This... I can't help it." Huo Yangzhou lowered his head helplessly, "I'm not lying to you, I'm really not dead, I'm still alive."

Chen Xi wiped away his tears with a piece of toilet paper, then glared at him: "I'm just joking, how could I not see your acting so well."

Many people praised Huo Yangzhou for his good acting, especially this movie, which pushed Huo Yangzhou's reputation to a peak.But when Chen Xi uttered these words, the feeling was different.

His heart softened, he couldn't restrain himself anymore, he swept the hand that was originally on Chen Xi's shoulder, and he could touch his lover's soft lips by lowering his head.

Sighing softly, from top to bottom, covering Chen Xi's eyes with his palms, the lights in the projection room were too dazzling and bright, even if he stabilized his emotions, tears never broke.

The audience walked out in twos and threes, Huo Yangzhou kissed for a while, and let go reluctantly.If they don't leave, the movie theater employees will find them.

Walking out of the movie theater and mingling with the crowd, Chen Xi paused and said: "Huo Yangzhou, if you don't win the award, there must be something shady about that judging committee!"
