Later, we laughed in our respective cities for a long time, and we told the story again when we met. Later, when my voice was broken, I sent a message to the people who knew us, because it was a big deal...
In the summer of 2001, the TV movie "Criminal Police Officer Zhang Yugui 2" temporarily lacked an actor, a scene, and a word. I went. The meaning of that scene was that the captain of the criminal police was unjustly dismissed from his post, and the whole team was full of grief and indignation. At this moment, i played a young police officer who did not open his eyes and came to report, saying that he wanted to find the captain. So an old man rushed up and grabbed me by the neck and pressed me against the wall: You scream again, I beat you!
Ten years later, it was summer again, and someone posted a screenshot of that scene online.
Next, I sent this still of "My Regiment Leader My Regiment" filmed in 2008, and I pinched Li Chen's neck and pressed him against the wall.
In 2001, it was actually Li Chen who pinched me!
…………
In 2001, we didn't know each other. After a scene, there is no gossip except dialogue, no "hello", no "goodbye", no handshake, no phone call. On this day in 2010, I called him, and he was on a plateau at an altitude of four thousand meters, and his voice was a little distant. I shouted, "Have you ever made a TV movie called "Criminal Police Officer Zhang Yugui 2"?" ”
"Yes."
"Do you remember the last scene where you grabbed a stupid B by the neck and pushed him against the wall?"
"Well, it seems, what's wrong?"
“……”
"What's wrong???"
"That stupid B, that's me!"
Putting down the phone, Chen Er and I laughed for a long time across thousands of kilometers until she was short of oxygen.
15 years, "Criminal Police Zhang Yugui 2", "Soldier Assault", "My Regiment Leader My Regiment", "Life and Death Line", "Great Cause of Party Building", "Beijing Love Story", "Heavenly Partners", "Good Guys", "Good Boys", "I Am Not Pan Jinlian", along the way, we are the actors who have cooperated with each other the most times, and we have faced many dangers and sufferings together. So on this issue today, I should have some say.
It is not easy to do anything, the pressure of the film and television industry is particularly large, the market is so little, and all sentient beings are crowded. When selecting actors, some investors often say: Use this person, be a good person. I am confused, being a good person, being a good person, and being a good person, are two concepts ah...
But Li Chen, in addition to his professionalism worthy of my respect, he is really a good person.
That day, in 2008, we were filming such a scene: "I" was stunned by the bomb, and Chen Er half-knelt on the ruins to help me up, shouting: "Xiao He! Xiao Ho! "It's just a scene, it's very simple, after rehearsal, he and I fix their makeup and kneel across from each other.
"Ready to shoot—" The executive director Second Master roared, only to see the fireworks master wave his hand: "Okay, let the smoke go!" In order to create a battlefield atmosphere, he and his apprentices walked back and forth among the ruins with yellow, white and black smoke tubes in their hands.
"Preparation—" the second master shouted, and the various departments were in place, like a strong general ready to start. The last master, holding a black smoke tube that was flying straight up to Mars, also jumped over my side and withdrew from the scene as fast as he could.
Suddenly, a sharp pain came from my neck, and I was full of excitement, knowing that this Spark was not small, and it fell directly on the skin... Half a meter away, Chen Er looked at me and shouted. In the distance, the unburned smoke pipes screeched, and no one heard his cries.
I raised my hand and pressed the collar, Mars should have been crushed on the neck, I gritted my teeth in pain, and Chen Er was still screaming at me. The smoke made it hard for me to breathe, and Chen Er raised her arm and reached out to me... At that moment, I was suddenly very moved--soldiers, regiments, and lines, we shared weal and woe. According to his words at that time, "The Elders of the Three Dynasties", that kindness was extraordinary, just like in front of me, I hurt on the flesh, he hurt through his heart, this is the brotherhood of the ten fingers and the heart.
"Three-two-one--" The elongated tone of the second master penetrated the smoke screen. I pressed Li Chen's hand: "I'm fine!" Filming is the most important thing! "The actors are made of special materials, which is a lot like a soldier. Soldiers pay attention to "orders to prohibit", and actors who hear "ready to boot" must also obey unconditionally, and obedience sometimes means abandonment. The abandonment at this moment makes people feel no regrets, at least, I feel the priceless friendship.
"Go!" The second master drank, and the play, which was only three or two minutes, started smoothly.
…… ……
"Stop!" At the end of the scene, it was perfect, especially Chen'er, whose pain had never been so real. I've forgotten about the pain, and certainly not much. I knelt on the ground, trying to lower my head, close my jaw, and open the neckline, but I couldn't find the burned spot.
"O Assiba!" Chen Er was fascinated by this often foul language in Korean dramas, but whenever he sighed, sad, happy, and helpless, he could always hear him shouting: "Asheba! "I saw him gasping for breath and desperately opening his collar —and then I saw a piece of his skin, a skin the size of a broad bean, burned off, and the position was also the neck...
Later, someone always asked where Chen'er's neck skin was, and he would always point at me tirelessly: "You go and ask this shit!" When I screamed in pain, he thought I was worried about him, he held me down, and then said very seriously: Brother, it's okay, start shooting! ”
Did I shout "brother" at the time? Maybe he shouted, maybe he didn't, hey, hey, those who have suffered together are brothers.
Off-topic, back to the question. Why did he have today?
Many people think that he is very good after "running man", in fact, he is not just a variety star, he is first of all a good actor, the dragon article of "Life and Death Line", the time of "Good Guys", he has dedicated a brilliant performance. Especially in the just finished "Good Guys", I must admit that he acted better than me, and I still have a lot of wandering, but he completely put the character of time on him. As an actor, if you can't do it professionally, what you do is just a passing cloud, relying on crooked doors and evil ways is useless, the audience does not look at how much money you have earned, how many awards you have won, let your food and clothing parents like you, only excellent craftsmanship, there is no other way.
For the industry, no matter how good a person is, he can only survive for a while, and his character is really good, and he is really money and silver, and he has a lot of help.
There is a saying in our industry: There is difficulty in finding Li Chen. Acquaintance, half-life, big things and small feelings, although looking for him, can you put aside first, he really gives you the heart to do. Decades like a day.
Chen'er was also born as a bitter child, and he did all kinds of work. Human nature is loyal, double business is not low, can do great things, but still sometimes like a child, full of innocence, believe that there are many good people in the world, believe that no one is easy. Some people say that he is a good man for a thousand years and no one can be guilty, but he is really not cowardly. When filming "The Regiment Leader", there was a mentally ill person who broke into our shooting scene with a one-meter-long knife and caught who shook whom. People were all avoided, the prop table, monitor shelf and director's chair were directly cut and broken, and Chen Er was the first to rush up and instantly knocked the patient down.
"Good Guys" finally aired smoothly, from filming to today, four years, Chen has never given up the effort to let this play broadcast. A person, silently, goes with each satellite TV, a few ups and downs, sad and happy. We have no way of knowing what specific efforts, or even compromises, he made during this time, but all I saw was that it happened, and when we drank, he cried like a child directly in front of me.
