C957 Your Face Is Swollen
Nan Zhen didn't go home, or rather, he didn't go back to his father's home. But in detail, that was not his home, because he had never admitted that he was the only one in his home.
He had very little interaction with his father, and he had almost no fucking memories. He had heard that she had abandoned him and married someone when he was very young, so it was very normal that he did not have her memories.
Nan Zhen took a shower and turned off the light. He laid on the bed and stared at the ceiling that was blurred by the darkness.
Recently, he could always see her shadow on Shen Yi. Especially when Shen Yi was in the movie, every look in her eyes. Every movement of her body seemed to be able to pass through time and space, connecting the two of them together.
But he was still relatively clear-headed now. Shen Yi was Shen Yi and she was her. In another month, she would have already gone for two years. Time passed really quickly.
His thoughts were very clear now, so he had enough thinking and imagination to let him guess whether there were two people in this world who were very similar in terms of acting details and hobbies.
Their faces were different, their voices were different, their family background and experiences were also different, and the most similar was only their acting skills. In the end, it was still his wishful thinking.
He turned around and closed his eyes.
Sleep, everything in a dream.
This New Year was the most relaxing New Year Shen Yi had ever had.
She did not need to rush the notice. She would wake up naturally in the morning and jog with Ni Chenjun. She would revise the script and chat with Tao Shefu. Every night, she would stay on the sofa and watch movies and dramas with Shen Ke. He would practice piano for two more hours before going to bed. It was satisfying and fulfilling.
After the Lantern Festival, the school started and the variety show started filming. Shen Yi's life became busy again.
In February, she and Lin Zhi finished fixing the script together. Lin Zhi took the script and went around looking for the director to work with.
The script was a good one. Many directors were very moved when they saw the script. But in the end, being moved was one thing. Firstly, the theme was not easy to film. Secondly, the character was difficult to grasp. If one was not careful, they would not be able to produce any effects or appeal. Therefore, many people lamented that they didn't have the ability to film this script.
In the end, the script still fell into Lin Yao's hands.
Lin Yao was not picky about the script, but the reason why he did not immediately decide what to do next was mostly because of Shen Yi. There was no other reason. Lin Zhi wanted to protect Shen Yi's female lead. However, Lin Yao felt that Shen Yi was too young to play such a profound role, so the two of them went against each other.
Just like that, they went against each other for half a month. Shen Yi took the initiative to suggest an audition. After a round of discussion, Lin Yao finally agreed to shoot the script in March.
After signing the contract, Lin Yao asked Shen Yi to find a teacher to learn the style and charm of famous prostitutes in the Republic of China. Shen Yi learned from March to April and entered the group. Before entering the group, she also received a call from Chiang Zi.
After two months of complicated selections, Spring Child won seven major awards such as Best Director and Best Male Lead in the Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony on April 14th. It could be said that she successfully won the Golden Statue Award Ceremony this time.
Chiang Zi only comforted Shen Yi about the fact that Shen Yi had failed to win the Best Female Lead Award. There was still the French Garner Film Festival in May and the Shanghai International Film Festival in June. She believed that with her performance, she would definitely win the Best Female Lead Award. Shen Yi was not disappointed. It was already very good that she was able to win a post-movie trophy last year. She would be happy if she could win another award that was worth so much money, but she would not be disappointed even if she could not win it. She was still young and had a good script in her hands. She didn't have to worry about her second trophy.
Because the story was about the background of the Republic of China, the director was currently directing the crew to handle the background details that had yet to come to an end. Shen Yi sat in the lounge chair and held the script in one hand while watching them move the pendants.
Lin Zhi grabbed the script and sat beside her. She sighed and said, "Ah, I didn't expect that I would also have a day where I would observe the film from a close distance."
Shen Yi smiled and cast a sidelong glance at her. She did not care about her teasing, "Maybe you will have the fortune to participate in the birth of the new movie queen."
Lin Zhi gave an "oh," and said, "You are too arrogant. When the time comes, your face will be swollen."
Shen Yi did not mind. "Good script, good director, and actors. If you don't take the movie queen, you will not be able to do such a big production."
Lin Yao personally directed the movie. If he did not slaughter a few movie queen trophies, he would not be able to live up to Lin Yao's reputation and ability.
Lin Zhi snorted. "No matter how good you say, it is useless. My dad is very fierce. It is common to scold crying actors."
Shen Yi smiled. The corners of her lips curled up. Her eyes were shining with a proud and useless light. "If you are afraid, I will not be called Shen Yi."
The more intense the collision between actors and directors, the more it could produce iconic and smooth works. She was ready to do it.
