Can't fly

Unbeknownst to Yang Yuanyi, Fang Fei actually thought of Yeyang after reading the script "Suddenly Too Late" for the first time.

The story of the script takes place in the 90s. Li Hang, a graduate of a prestigious university, chose the former for stability in the final assignment of job opportunities and independent career choice, and then came to a high school in a county to become an English teacher.Li Hang is young, handsome, and full of connotation. He stands out among a group of old teachers and naturally attracts everyone's attention.But the small town was boring, and Li Hang couldn't be kept. He wanted to escape soon after.

The movie is based on this period of high school teaching career. Li Hang, who was wondering whether to leave, got acquainted with the "big sister" Xiaolin in the class by mistake, and the other party began to pursue this somewhat gloomy foreign teacher...

After all the dust settles, there is only "more than ten thousand miles away from each other, each at the end of the world".

Film screenwriter Xu Mu is good at depicting abnormal love, has written many forbidden emotions, and can always weave the story to tears, showing the helpless situation of life everywhere.

The identities of Li Hang and Xiaolin in this story are undoubtedly difficult. Xu Mu's handling is very flattering, fabricating a layer of dreamy shell between the mutual attraction between the lonely young man and the rebellious girl, making them two incarnations, focusing on love , and why not discuss the two ways of survival when the centuries overlap.

If you were wondering how the teacher and the students broke through the shackles at the beginning, at the end, you would only marvel at the different choices of the two, and love would become the least worth mentioning part.

The ambiguity, bitterness, indescribable loss and the excitement of breaking through taboos written in black and white, when Fang Fei reads the script, the gray sky of Yeyang will always appear in his mind.

But at that time, Fang Fei still couldn't imagine what kind of scene it should be.

Until Yang Yuanyi arrived at the prepared old unit building with the leading and supporting roles, somehow the "teacher's dormitory", "shop" and "street" in the script suddenly came into reality.

In the old city of Yeyang, the houses left at the beginning of the century are slightly newer than those in the 90s, and still have a sense of age.

There are several shops on the first floor. Most of the shutter doors are pulled to the end, and the rest are still open, including a sewing shop, a hardware store and a mahjong parlor. The average age of the patrons is over 50 years old.

From anyone's point of view, this is a dead place.

And one kilometer away, Yeyang's newly built shopping malls, commercial streets and Kangliang Avenue are not much worse than any modern city.The asphalt road separates the two sides, and it is not just the new and the old that are clearly distinguished.

Yang Yuanyi pointed to the gray residential building in front of him: "The house is rented, Li Hang will live on the third floor, and Xiao Lin lives with her parents and elder brother on the first floor. Everyone has worked hard this month, so let's feel it."

Min Hongmian stepped on the concrete road with holes in the soles of his feet, unbelievable: "We live here?"

Yang Yuanyi didn't seem to understand her surprise: "It's a bit like the Tongzilou I lived in when I was a child. If I want to take a scene later, it should not be here...I'm still looking for it."

Min Hongmian had never lived in such a dilapidated house when she was born, and she was a little embarrassed on the spot.But she didn't know what was on her mind. After chewing gum vigorously for a while, she picked up the box without saying a word, took He Jia's hand affectionately, and went with the two actors who played "Dad" and "Mother" in the play calmly. first floor.

Fang Fei didn't say anything, and was ready to settle down first.

The box is not heavy, and the most important thing in it is a few books.Fang Fei’s reason for bringing them is simple: since the background of the script is set in the 90s, entertainment devices such as mobile phones and tablet computers can be temporarily abandoned, and daily communication is enough.

He still doesn't know if Yang Yuanyi is as strict as Ye Chengrong, or as tactful as Chu Yin, it doesn't hurt to be more prepared.

In the early years, Fang Fei really didn't know how to film. Before he could experience the fun from this career, he was banned by Lie Xing.Lie Xing's family had a big business at that time, Fang Fei was too passive, and somehow lost many opportunities to continue acting.

But during the few years he was out of work, after Fang Fei picked up the habit of reading books and watching movies, he tended to settle down to analyze some expression techniques that he usually didn't understand.He lacks mentors and cameras. Being able to follow Yang Yuanyi into the group this time is not only a rare "comeback" for him, but also a test.

Let him see clearly whether he likes being an actor or not.

Fang Fei didn't plan to tell Yang Yuanyi about these things yet, he thought Yang Yuanyi wouldn't like to hear them.

When walking to the third floor, he was thinking about all these things in a mess. There were footsteps behind him, but Fang Fei didn't turn his head. When he turned the corner, he caught a glimpse of someone dressed in pure black, and secretly laughed.

"I thought you didn't want to live here."

"Why not?" he countered.

Yang Yuanyi chuckled, casually hooked Fang Fei's shoulder with one hand: "Are you satisfied?"

Earlier this house was a dormitory for the family members of a certain agency, and later a new community was built, so the dormitories in the old city were basically rented out at low prices.Two-family on the first floor, and three-bedroom on the other side.The furniture is complete, but it is a bit old. It is impossible to redo all the wall tiles and floors for this month's experience of life, so the original owner's decoration is retained.

"It's much better than when I was a child." Fang Fei gestured, "My grandma's house was still in the countryside on the outskirts of the city, one-story house, the kind of brick and tile. But there was a big yard with a lot of orange trees..."

I don't know if the familiar air made him start talking, Yang Yuanyi smiled unconsciously, sat on the sofa, and listened to Fang Fei talking about orange trees and red brick walls for a while.

The sky outside the window was gray and white, Yang Yuanyi asked suddenly: "Have you never thought about going back?"

"Ok?"

"Isn't it only 10 minutes to walk from here to your house?" Yang Yuanyi watched his expected surprise and asked patiently, "Don't you want to go back and take a look?"

"...Don't you want to experience life?"

"What's wrong."

"You shouldn't be running around, Mr. Yang?"

Yang Yuanyi rested his chin leisurely: "You have the privilege, let's go quietly."

Fang Fei asked, "Are you going with me?"

"Well, no?"

"No, it's just..." There was a sneaky sweetness in his heart, "How can I introduce you to my parents?"

Yang Yuanyi pretended to think seriously, and said, "Just say you are my hero."

"……Oh."

"It's impossible to just say that I'm your boyfriend."

"..."

"Aren't I?"

Fang Fei concentrated on looking at a slanted branch outside the window: "What is it?"

There were no birds in winter, but he vaguely felt that a sparrow jumped onto the branch, and then with a "crack", half of the branch broke off, and the sparrow fluttered its wings and flew away.

Yang Yuanyi followed Fang Fei's gaze and looked out the window, gave up asking, and said instead: "Do your parents know that you like men?"

"I never asked." Fang Fei said.

"Haven't I introduced you to a girl?"

"I was blocked by my mother." Fang Fei thought of Li Xiaoqin, and his tone was much softer. "She is the most supportive of my family, and my grandmother... At the time when I reported to the Communication University, only my mother thought it was very good. Later, I said once that I don't want to Blind date, don't want to be so anxious, if someone introduces her again, I will block her back."

"It's good, it's not easy."

Fang Fei couldn't hear Yang Yuanyi's sincere envy, and thought he was teasing: "It's her support, otherwise I might have been dragged back to Yeyang by my father by the ear, and went to be a civil servant in Kaopuzhou."

Yang Yuanyi imagined how he would look like in the civil servant exam, but to no avail: "Then it's better for you to be an actor."

"why?"

"You are a jade in the rough." Yang Yuanyi said, "Director Chu commented on you so much, but I don't know if you will still be afraid of the camera after a few years. When recording the program, I see that you are always absent-minded."

"Because you stared at me."

Yang Yuanyi asked: "Really? You didn't look at me, how did you know I was staring at you?"

Fang Fei couldn't say no to him, leaning on the balcony with one ear red, leaning out of the window as if nothing had happened.

"Afei." Someone behind him shouted persistently, but without sincerity, he just kept numbing his ears, "Afei, take me to have a look, and I beg you, okay?"

"Why do you have to go..."

His attitude loosened, Yang Yuanyi took advantage of the victory to pursue: "Let's go, you are the most obedient."

Fang Fei was helpless: "Then don't talk nonsense in front of my parents."

"I'm not a child." Yang Yuanyi rubbed his hair carelessly, and replied, "You are."

Fang Fei felt that he was too unprincipled for taking him out without getting an answer.Perhaps subconsciously, he also looks forward to one day being able to go home with the one he loves like in a standard TV drama with a happy ending.

Yang Yuanyi satisfied him by mistake, although he probably just wanted to watch the fun with Yang Yuanyi.

He is full of novelty in everything, Fang Fei couldn't help asking: "Mr. Yang, you are engaged in literary and artistic creation, why have you kept away from the masses? You don't like to tidy up the room, don't you know how expensive it is?"

"You're right, I will definitely change it in the future." Yang Yuanyi studied the smoky snack street, "I will change it now."

"What's going on today!"

Fang Fei laughed straight, and pushed him angrily, but Yang Yuanyi held his hand instead.

At the corner of two streets, his heart was beating like thunder—strange, he had done more intimate things countless times, but Fang Fei could easily get his heart beat every time because Yang Yuanyi held his hand without exception.

Near dusk, the fog surrounds the orange-yellow street lights, and the white tiles on the exterior walls of the buildings in the old city are like jade.

Fang Fei took half a step back.

Yang Yuanyi took both of his hands and held them to his chest: "A Fei, I want to kiss you."

The slender shadow touched and let go quickly, Fang Fei felt his fingertips trembling uncontrollably.The touch on the street reminded him of the rebellious girl in the script who suddenly attacked the teacher.

She kissed Li Hang's face, then ran away, laughing loudly all the way.

It is clear that the filming has not officially started, but he seems to have become that dissolute and indecisive young man. They live in the movie, and they are all illusory. After the filming, everything is silent.

This knowledge makes Fang Fei very sad.

"Stop teasing me." Fang Fei finally said, his voice low.

Yang Yuanyi didn't take it seriously, and stood half a step away from him in a good mood: "Take me, boyfriend."

The house rented by the film crew was not far from Fang Fei's shop, or maybe Yeyang City was only that big, and it was only four or five kilometers to go around the whole city.

The road was not long, but Yang Yuanyi stopped to take pictures from time to time, using his mobile phone, and occasionally took a few photos for Fang Fei.Fang Fei said no, but every time he looked helplessly, he quietly stood at the spot Yang Yuanyi pointed out, and then stuck his hands and feet stiffly, imagining that he was also a scenic spot that he had his eyes on.

Stopping and stopping like this, Fang Fei saw the familiar street sign after almost 10 minutes.

Xiaoqin Fruit Shop, although it was Fang Shiping who created it today's scale, it uses his wife's name.

The signboard has just been renovated, and the outermost room occupies a little space on the sidewalk, displaying winter oranges, apples, pears, and two or three rows of fresh strawberries in small baskets.

Before crossing the road, Fang Fei first saw a woman in a brown down jacket, with her back turned to the street, chatting with a few people.He was about to call "Mom" when he suddenly felt that the atmosphere was not right:

Li Xiaoqin didn't seem to be chatting, but started arguing with someone!
