"Brother Lu, Brother Lu, we're here."

Pushed gently by Wang Zixuan, Lu Ze opened his eyes, half-closed his eyes and glanced out of the window. He came to a small rural restaurant here, just like Lu Ze's hometown, which was a familiar environment for him.

Putting on the hood of the long down jacket, Lu Ze pushed open the car door, and the cold wind came in, accompanied by the fine snow blowing from the roof. He stepped on the snow and entered the two-story rural building.

In an instant, a gust of heat rushed over, and the crew members inside were eating hot stewed pork with sauerkraut in a copper pot. When they saw Lu Ze and Wang Zixuan coming in, they quickly got up and said hello.

After all, this group of people are all from the industry, and no one doesn't know this actor who has become popular recently.

"Lu Er! Come here, sit here, sit next to me."

Hearing a familiar voice, Lu Ze turned his head. Li Wei stood up and waved to him. Lu Ze knew that Li Wei was going to take part in this play, playing the role of Mr. Shu's brother. There was no accident. The two embraced warmly. for a moment.

The two are old acquaintances, and they got along relatively well during the filming of "My Group". This Hunanese is generous and doesn't play too narrow-minded, so he gets along very well with Lu Ze.

Sitting at this table with Wang Zixuan were Li Wei, Zhuang Yu, and several team leaders. The copper pot was burning with charcoal, and the sauerkraut inside was already bubbling. Lu, who hadn’t eaten sauerkraut for a long time, Ze is really hungry.

Li Wei was holding a kettle, the kind that was placed directly on the stove to boil water. The bottom of the kettle had already been burned with a layer of black ash, and he shook it at Lu Ze, squinting his eyes and smiling, with a wretched expression on his face: "How about some?" ?”

"Then have some."

The small plastic cup directly poured a whole cup. Lu Ze touched it with his hand, and with the residual warmth, he took a sip from his mouth. The hotness came up and dripped into his stomach. It was very comfortable and warmed his whole body.

"Ha~ This wine is quite delicious. It must be... sixty degrees? It's quite strong."

"Isn't it? I told Director Zhuang that Lu Ze likes to drink a few sips when he has nothing to do. Director Zhuang went to the brewer's house in the next village to make loose wine for you. The pure grain wine is nearly 70 degrees."

Li Wei is also a good drinker. After taking a sip of liquor, he made a joke about Lu Ze with Zhuang Yu. The atmosphere was very lively. Zhuang Yu also looked at Lu Ze and asked with a smile.

"Is it good to drink? It's good. I'm going to get some from the master. With all these men drinking, I don't think I can drink fifty catties for a few days."

Zhuang Yu doesn't smoke or drink alcohol, but he doesn't stop the actors and staff from drinking. For him, as long as the progress can be kept up and everyone can drink some alcohol to maintain their state, then drink as much as you want, without delaying the business That's fine.

Lu Ze took the small stainless steel bowl and handed it to Wang Zixuan. He broke off the chopsticks and stuffed a piece of pork into his mouth. In winter, he had to drink white wine and eat pork with white fat and skin.

Reaching out to Wang Zixuan also took a chopstick of pork. At first she thought it was fat and didn't want to eat it, but after taking a bite, it was not greasy at all. It melted in the mouth like jelly. The taste was so good that she couldn't control it anymore. , keeping his head silent, holding a chopstick from time to time, what he eats is called a happy meal.

Lu Ze picked up chopsticks of sauerkraut and took a sip of white wine with Li Wei before turning the topic back to the main topic: "Director Zhuang, when will the filming start?"

"Nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

Lu Ze didn't speak, he ate his food, scratched his hair with his right hand with long nails, raised his wine glass, touched Li Wei, took a big gulp, grinned, and exhaled.

 …

After dinner, it was already six o'clock in the evening. In winter, it was getting dark quickly. In addition, there were no street lights in the countryside. There were sporadic dogs barking and the chug and chug of motorcycles outside.

The crew is very small, with a total of more than 50 people living in this farmhouse and a small hotel nearby.

Lu Ze lived in a hotel, put on the military overcoat and dog fur hat accompanied by the crew, carried a suitcase, entered the hotel with a cigarette butt in his mouth, and slipped on the steps.

After handing over the ID card, a single room was very old, but it was cleaned up very cleanly. He put the cigarette butt in the ashtray to extinguish it, exhaled the last puff of smoke, and began to pack his suitcase.

The WIFI in this hotel is not fast, it is very slow, and the phone calls with Lu Nan are intermittent, so they simply use their own data, after chatting, charge the phone and turn on the bedside lamp.

He drank three glasses of white wine and two bottles of beer. He didn't drink too much, but he felt sleepy. He never used a hotel thermos, so he picked up the mineral water he bought in a small supermarket and drank half a bottle.

Put on pajamas, wash your face and brush your teeth, go back to bed and turn over the quilt, and go to sleep.

 …

At 6:30, the class ended, he opened the curtains, and he could still hear sporadic crowing of cocks in the distance. The genius was dimly lit. After getting into the tuba, he looked at himself in the mirror, unkempt, with a dull expression.

"Good morning, Tree."

He didn't wash his face but brushed his teeth, maybe it will be like this for a long time, put on his phone, Lu Ze left the room.

"I woke up very early, are you still getting up so early every day?"

When Lu Ze pushed the door and came out, Li Wei also opened the door and threw a cigarette to Lu Ze. When Lu Ze was filming "Leader", he woke up at six or seven o'clock every day to wake everyone up. Li Wei thought that Lu Ze After Ze became famous, he wouldn't wake up so early.

"I'm used to it, don't you get up pretty early too?"

"I just want to sleep, I can't sleep well, anyway, I don't have many scenes, and I guess the filming will be over in a day or two."

After chatting for a while, Zhuang Yu and all the staff got out and got into the car. Last night, the temperature dropped drastically again. The Cruiser driven by Zhuang Yu was okay. There were two other cars, and the engine oil was frozen. , can't start the fire anymore.

Everyone pulled and pulled together, and finally all the cars were able to run. Six cars headed towards the shooting location. After arriving at the scene at 8 o'clock, they began to purchase equipment.

As a director for the first time, Zhuang Yu didn't panic. It seemed that he had done his homework and everything was proceeding in an orderly manner. Until Wang Zixuan and Li Wei's assistant came over with breakfast, everyone stopped and took a casual bite.

"Actors in the first scene, Lu Ze, go and change your clothes."

Lu Ze got up, and following him was a special actor, who had no name in the play, and played the role of the van driver. In real life, he was a two-person actor. Lu Ze had seen him on TV a few times before, but in the past two years he should Can't find work.

The two were not very familiar with each other, so Lu Ze got his own clothes, a brown coat, a blue cotton-lined coat, a pair of fat trousers, and a pair of old leather shoes.

These are all washed and made old, and they look just like the old ones that are used every day, and there is no difference.

After the clothes were changed, Lu Ze didn't look so tall because of the bulky clothes and pants. Lu Ze slapped some water on his face, and when he went outside, he felt a tingling sensation when the cold wind blew.

After standing there for ten minutes, neither the costume artist nor the make-up artist dared to stop Lu Ze. When Lu Ze came back and wiped his face with a towel, a red mark had already formed around his two cheekbones. The bloodshot eyes became ugly again.

"Now put on your makeup."

"okay."

The makeup artist actually admired Lu Zezhong's professionalism and details. He didn't know what to say, so he could only paint Lu Zezhong's beard heavier in silence.

Grab some pomade and rub it vigorously, then press it on Lu Ze's head and rub it for a while, without using a comb, just use your fingers to pull out the hairstyle again, it looks very oily, as if it hasn't been washed for a few days same.

Lu Ze took out an orange from his pocket, peeled it off, stuffed the pulp into his mouth and ate it, picked up the orange peel and rubbed it on his nails repeatedly, rubbing all ten fingers, making the color of the nails turn yellow, looking Get dirty, and with that, the dress-up is all done.

As soon as he got up, firecrackers were set off outside. It didn't take long. After more than ten seconds of crackling, Lu Ze heard Zhuang Yu shout.

"Start shooting!"
