The Whole Empire Raises Me

For the next four full months, Wen Xingze devoted himself to the shooting of "Dust Planet".

Li Mingzhou is a good director, and "Dust Planet" is undoubtedly a good crew. In these four months, Wen Xingze has learned more than all the experiences in the past few years combined-of course, I also encountered it. There were many difficulties, but in the end they were overcome one by one.

And Wen Xingze is the type that is getting better.

In the later stage of the filming of "Dust Planet", Wen Xingze seemed to have merged with the character Xia Huai. Not only the director could see it, but also many staff members in the crew who didn't know anything about movies. Especially the last big climax-a wailing and screaming on the final battlefield, the sky is about to fall, Xia Huai wears a ragged military uniform on his shoulders, smiles very lightly, and then falls into the furnace of fire... …

The star of the empire and the youngest major general, Xia Huai, has gone through glorious honors and disgrace in this life. He has also stumbled and fallen into the mud. In the end, he finally reconciles with himself and the world, and all the good light and peace are coming Before, I chose to die like this as a soldier.

But "Dust Planet" is not a tragedy.

Regarding whether Xia Huai really died, an ambiguous and open suspense was left at the end of the movie: the last shot of the movie was that three months later, the bionic man found a worn-out military uniform in a ruin. And a gun with a dark silver rose pattern.

——This picture overlaps with when Xia Huai first picked up the bionic human in the garbage dump, and then zoomed out to shoot the vast and silent dark blue night, and the gorgeous aurora in the sky...

The bionic man stayed in place for a long time, suddenly red eyes, and rushed forward.

The movie ends here.

The match between Wen Xingze and Chi Yan, although it did not go well at first, it turned out to be more and more suitable later, and it had reached a perfect point, and it was extremely brilliant. You can't imagine what would happen if these two roles were not played by them.

Wen Xingze's expressiveness and emotional appeal reached its extreme in these last few scenes.

The atmosphere of the entire crew was completely driven by him, and more than one staff member would secretly cry over Xia Huai's experience and ending during the break. After the final climax and ending were filmed, Li Mingzhou, who had always praised Wen Xingze, was silent on the contrary. He only said "after" and left in a hurry-after Li Mingzhou finished work that night, he sat alone in the screening room. , I lit a cigarette and looked at these two paragraphs over and over all night with reading glasses.

The deputy director who passed by and watched all this was shocked.

Director Li has been filming for so many years, and he has never seen any wonderful acting skills. The last time he did this was when he filmed "The Grass" with Chi Yan several years ago...

Wen Xingze may win the prize with "Dust Planet".

And by no means a small prize.

"..."

But Wen Xingze himself knew nothing about it.

After filming "Dust Planet", it took him a long time to complete the play, and then he went to film "Miracle Zeze Around the World" with Griffith, the old Spanish man...

Along the way, the tourism system of "Cub Raising Plan" activated many areas, and in the end there was only one area that was not activated, named ‘God’s Domain’. But the parents turned over the maps of the two universes and couldn't find this place, so they had to shelve it temporarily.

Anyway, there is still time.

Time flickered, as if it was only a blink of an eye, from the deep winter to the summer again.

In the past six months, it can be said that Wen Xingze's popularity has continued to rise steadily, but there has been a lack of a work that can truly prove his strength and acting skills.

——Until the seventh day of July this year, "Dust Planet" was officially finalized.

Summer in the capital, early morning.

The dim light passed through the windows, and the central air conditioner worked steadily. The center of the bed was slightly sunken, and a teenager was lying on the bed. His sleeping posture can only be described as freedom, most of his face and body are buried in the quilt, only the tips of his ears are exposed.

Green plants stretched out on the windowsill, it was a pot of daisies that had just been watered.

The desk electronic calendar shows the time, July 28th, 8:...

A video camera fixed somewhere carefully recorded this scene. The camera is shooting a vlog, the content of the vlog is to record the whole day of the teenager.

The whole picture is very quiet and beautiful.

What broke this warm scene was the percussive sound from outside the window. The voice was very faint, but very crisp, so I took it.

It was a silvery bird with beautiful tail feathers. It is pecking at the window.

The sleeping teenager was awakened by the sound.

His eyelashes moved, and after a moment he opened his eyes and sat up confused. His forehead was completely asleep, and he sat on the bed in a daze.

"What date is today... twenty-eight?"

He yawned.

The bird outside the window tilted his head to look at him, and tweeted twice after a while.

The young man noticed outside the window again, he yawned and went to open the window. As soon as the window opened, the bird flew in eagerly. It circled the boy twice, then found a suitable place on his head and sat down.

Obviously he was very satisfied with this ‘bird’s nest’, and the little bird cocked his head and rubbed the boy in an attachment.

Camera: "..."

Wen Xingze: "..."

Wen Xingze completely woke up at this moment.

After finishing a filming mission, Wen Xingze returned to China this week. He slept for a whole day with jet lag and was still very sleepy when he got up. Feeling the familiar weight on his head, Wen Xingze had to admit his fate and realized that his sleep today was over.

——Since July, no matter where Wen Xingze is, the bird will knock on his window at 8 o'clock every morning, then sit down on top of his head and go to sleep until 9 o'clock.

And even if it sleeps on its own, Wen Xingze is not allowed to sleep. Wen Xingze shows a trace of lying on the bed, and the bird will cover his nose with its wings.

It's a bit too deceiving!

But this month has passed, Wen Xingze's mentality has been shocked and depressed from the beginning to now accustomed to it. But today is different.

In order to cope with the publicity of many of the next works, the company opened an account for him in the letter station a few days ago, hoping that he can take a vlog to record his day as the first video of the account.

Wen Xingze looked at the camera in the corner, and finally remembered this vlog shooting mission. This is the end of my thoughts, and there is no way, so I just shoot. Anyway, it can be edited later.

Today is an excellent weather, the whole city outside the window is waking up, the sky is blue.

With a bird on his head, he pulled slippers, Wen Xingze expertly washed and put on clothes. The housekeeper took leave today and went home. Wen Xingze bit his toothbrush and went to the door to fetch the ordered fresh milk and newspaper.

In the open kitchen, Chi Yan wearing an apron was frying eggs, Wen Xingze walked over and exchanged a kiss with him.

"Wait later?"

"Ok."

Recently, Chi Yan can only stay in this world for a short time every day, but every day he comes to make breakfast for Wen Xingze.

The morning news was being broadcast on the TV, but was quickly switched to the children's channel to broadcast "Pig Man Bravely Entering Another World".

... There is no doubt that the culprit is the blood prince sitting at the table with his calves dangling. Lan took a sip of the milk and happily flapped the bat wings and flew over: "Your Majesty!"

Today is Blue.

Wen Xingze allowed him to sniff on himself. Lan wanted to make sure that he was the first parent to see the cubs this day. This is the habit of the parents of the vinegar and blood clan.

Lan soon found the bird on top of Wen Xingze's head. He was very upset, and he reached out to pick up the bird and quarrel with it.

Wen Xingze picked up the newspaper and placed it in front of the microwave, with a steady gust of wind blowing from the exhaust fan, gently turning the newspaper over a page every three minutes.

The words on the microwave oven screen read: "Wang, thank you, newspaper."

Although robot parents can hack into the backstage of any system on the earth at any time and can know everything they want to know, they still persevere in reading the newspaper every day, which may be a special sense of ritual.

The newspaper is also ordered for them.

Wen Xingze bit his face and said, "No, thank you, I love you."

In another universe, the base of the mechanical star, the old robots headed by No. 015 were ‘tricked’ at a loss. There was a rattling noise in the joints, feeling that the core center was getting hot and all kinds of data would be overloaded and overflowing.

At this moment, Lan and Xiaoniao's quarrel had come to an end. No one was too lazy to take care of each other, sitting on both ends of the couch, staring at the TV with piercing eyes.

Wen Xingze touched Lan's head first, then touched Xiaoniao's head, and then sat down at the dining table.

The scenes on the TV are noisy and noisy. It is the clumsy fighting sound effects of cartoons. Accompanied by the kitchen fumes, the sizzle of fried eggs, and the sound of paper rubbing when the newspaper is flipped, there is a unique noise of human fireworks throughout the room.

And Wen Xingze likes this noise.

Now Wen Xingze is not like before. After an announcement, he has a lot of time off. Wen Xingze went to the company after eating breakfast, saying goodbye to his parents and Chi Yan. There was a magazine interview in the morning, and Jiang Ye seemed to have other arrangements in the afternoon.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the recording room.

The reporter interviewed by the magazine was asking questions, while the photographer was taking pictures nearby. Wen Xingze's index finger touched the tip of his nose, drowsy at the same time he wanted to sneeze.

Before he said anything, everyone's phones suddenly lit up.

"The temperature of the air conditioner is too low. It is recommended to increase it by more than four degrees." Siri politely said.

"You should be able to do this yourself," Xiao Ai's voice also sounded, "Or do you need my help?"

AI Xiaona: "Let me come, it will be more efficient."

In the next second, the air conditioner made a beep, the temperature rose four degrees continuously, and it changed to the up and down sweep mode.

Everyone: "..."

The reporter and the photographer huddled together tremblingly.

Wen Xingze suddenly became sober, buckled on the Bluetooth headset, and he heard the childish and dissatisfied voice of the dwarf parents: "This is too unhealthy, cub, the old air conditioner in StarCraft has long been eliminated. It was blown by the low-temperature air conditioner. The probability of catching a cold later is 45.68%."

"Besides, because of indulging in part-time work, your hair loss rate is 1.124 times as fast as before. Cub, don't you have a cold head when you are blown directly by the air conditioner?"

Wen Xingze: "???"

Kill the heart!

Wen Xingze wanted to cry.

After a whole day, Wen Xingze was finally able to get off work at five o'clock in the afternoon. However, what he didn't expect was that he was blocked by fans holding a light board just half a step out of the company.

They didn't know where they heard the gossip, saying that Wen Xingze would come to the company today, and they actually stayed here. Wen Xingze was abroad two months ago, and did not disclose the specific date when he returned. Therefore, the fans failed to pick him up, and the enthusiasm for so long was suddenly out of control at this time.

"Ah ah ah ah Ah Ze look over here!!!"

"So handsome, are you wearing a private server today? It's so cute!"

"Signature..."

Wen Xingze has always been very grateful for the fans’ love and support. Just after signing two names, he found that the situation was not right. How can the people who surrounded this be in an endless stream, just like the zombie siege, more and more The security guards of the battle-tested Shengtian Entertainment are a little bit too much!

"Sorry, I'll go to the toilet." Wen Xingze raised the alarm in his heart, put down the pen immediately, and turned around.

Fans reacted faster: "...He is going to drive, stop him, don't let him run!"

It's like the scene of a police film.

The fans reacted quickly, but Wen Xingze reacted even faster. Seeing that the fans behind were about to follow up, Wen Xingze turned a corner and found a locker and opened the door...

Behind the door is the endless deep ocean.

Wen Xingze stepped in immediately and closed the door.

The ocean is vast and deep, with beautiful corals, starfish, and lantern fish.

"Is it blocked again?" The blue-tailed mermaid lay lazily on the humpback whale, her long hair tied with bright red shark beads, and her veil fluttered with the tide. "I will send you back, not as an example."

Wen Xingze lay down on the humpback whale, very confident: "That's what I said last time."

The humpback whale makes a happy sound.

The elder mermaid snorted and stopped talking. When he arrived at his destination, he was silent for a long time. He said awkwardly: "If you are too tired, you just don't do it. There is no shortage of money at home."

Wen Xingze felt very satisfied at once and said yes.

Six o'clock in the evening.

After a lot of hardships, Wen Xingze finally returned home.

"Wen Xingze!" Wen Xingze picked up Jiang Ye's call, Jiang Ye scolded him over there, "How many times have I told you, you must check the situation before you leave the company, and you must wear sunglasses and masks." Now, are you still thinking that you are currently on Weibo with a total of seven powdery pastes than idols?!"

"...You're going to be top-notch!"

Yes.

A year ago, Wen Xingze was still an 18-line actor who lived in the basement, rode three rounds, and occasionally went to the vegetable market to set up stalls, but now it is different from before.

It started with a few variety shows and became famous. "Yulong Night" experienced an explosive growth in popularity after its launch, followed by "Dust Planet". Although "Dust Planet" has not been released yet, the official Dust Planet has brought him many announcements that he could not even dream of before, and this summer, "Dust Planet" is finalized.

There are tens of millions of fans on Weibo, the top of the super-chat power list, the soft endorsements of advertising, and the good films one after another.

-He is almost a top-notch!

When you go out, you will be blocked by fans asking for autographs. This is something Wen Xingze could not even think of.

The reason for using "almost" is because everyone knows that he still lacks a proof of strength, a masterpiece. And there is no doubt that "Dust Planet" is that masterpiece.

Everyone is waiting.

Waiting for the release of "Dust Planet"-no, to be more precise, waiting for the first prize of "Dust Planet".

Faced with Jiang Ye's criticism, Wen Xingze knew that he was wrong, and of course had to promise that he would never do it again.

"You must be careful and careful next time, you know?" Jiang Ye paused, then said, "By the way, don't rush to sleep tonight... Maybe there will be good news."

good news?

Wen Xingze hadn't reacted yet, and suddenly remembered it when he was videoing with the Dragon parents at night.

The time difference between country A and China seems to be 16 hours. It seems that the nominations for a hall-level movie award are about to be announced, and "Dust Planet" is also being selected.

Realizing this, Wen Xingze's whole person was immediately ill, and soon became nervous, just like the state of three hours before the college entrance examination results.

"Baby?" On the other side of the video is the endless snow-capped mountains of the main star of the Dragon clan. The Dragon clan parents sit around the camera by the campfire, watching Wen Xingze with concern, "What's wrong?"

Wen Xingze told them about the movie awards.

The dragons are quiet.

After a while, Leiqi spread his wings and flew up to the sky to breathe fire. Some other dragons stomped wildly, some were tumbling on the ground, and the video over there was shaking the mountain!

"Zubzai is about to win the prize, roar—"

"So nervous!"

"I'm very excited," Yaster held the small camera in his paws, his head arching around in the snow, "We cubs are great."

Wen Xingze was so cute, and suddenly no longer nervous.

At this moment, the door suddenly opened.

Chi Yan walked in from the door, he took two express parcels in his hand, took off his mask, and a pair of dark ink pupils looked over calmly: "In the video?"

Wen Xingze was about to nod, and the video side hung up because the receiving source was damaged and the network was unstable.

Wen Xingze: "..."

Chi Yan gave a hum, put the express on the table, indicating that it was Wen Xingze's express.

"?" Wen Xingze walked over to open the courier and found that there were two packages with [Light Tower Logistics] printed on them.

One was the raspberry wine sent by the parents of the orcs, and a note was violently posted next to it, "You can only drink a small cup a day if you are a minor, and you will be fined if you drink more.

The other is a tomato sent by the parents of the elves... not just picked tomatoes, but a potted plant. Wen Xingze watched as the seeds in the pot of soil took root and blossomed.

The plump and fresh tomatoes fell on Wen Xingze's palm, and a butterfly stopped at Wen Xingze's fingertips, and then turned into a light spot and disappeared.

"Barbecue tonight?" Wen Xingze held the tomato and looked at it for a while, then poured out the raspberry wine, very satisfied.

Chi Yan agreed.

They set up a barbecue on the third floor in the open air.

The most suitable thing in summer is to have a barbecue with someone you like, drink a little wine, and watch the stars in the evening breeze.

Chi Yan also went to fry a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes. The tomatoes are fresh tomatoes sent by the elves' parents. They are fresh and sweet and taste absolutely delicious. The iced raspberry wine is also just right, mellow, sweet and delicious, not high, but with a long aftertaste.

The chicken wings on the grill are golden on both sides, slightly burnt and crisp with a crystal oily light, brushed with honey and barbecue sauce. Sprinkle another layer of white sesame seeds, and the whole string tremblingly drips with juice, splashing sparks and beeping...

Not to mention the half-fat and half-lean, sizzling tenderloin skewers on the stove, and the grilled fish topped with lemon juice and tender on the outside.

After eating and drinking, Wen Xingze slowly swept into Chi Yan's arms.

Chi Yan is still shy, and after a moment of silence, he kisses his earlobe.

"I think it's good...very good." Wen Xingze said.

This is a very normal day in summer, the galaxy is vast and vast, and the cicadas and the night breeze mix into a beautiful song.

At this time, Wen Xingze just thought, this kind of days may continue until many years later...When he becomes very old and very old, the years will continue to flow forward without any waves.

This was a million times better than any dream Wen Xingze could imagine.

He is only 24 years old this year. Wen Xingze thought with confidence that he has not even celebrated his 25th birthday, nor has he married his fiancé, Mr. Chi, and will spend a long time with his parents and Chi Yan. The years have just started a little.

He is very young and doesn't need to worry about thinking about life and death.

"It can't be better than now." Wen Xingze was a little drunk and gestured.

Chi Yan lowered his eyelids, and after a while, a slight smile suddenly appeared under his eyes.

"Really?" he said, "I think it's okay."

Wen Xingze: "?"

"Ozawa, look at the phone."

Wen Xingze turned off the phone two hours ago, and Chi Yan's tone suddenly gave him a certain premonition. Wen Xingze sat upright, and his heart began to pound.

He turned on the phone, and after a few seconds of turning it on, a layer of sweat appeared in his palms.

As soon as the phone was turned on, various notification sounds began to bombard, and missed calls, text messages, and WeChat unread messages kept pouring up. Wen Xingze didn't have time to go to see them one by one, and first clicked on Weibo.

...Wen Xingze's heartbeat reached its extreme when he saw the top few lines, and then slowly slowed down. There is a feeling that the dust has settled.

The world in his ear was silent.

The first thing I heard was my own breathing, and then I felt the warmth of Chi Yan's palm when he clasped his fingers.

Wen Xingze closed his eyes, then opened them, and started reading from the first line.

——"Tonight, at 9:16 pm on July 28th, Capital time, the nomination list for the 95th Academy Awards was officially announced. Among them, "Dust Planet" won twelve nominations, including the Best International Film Award, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, etc..."

This is Wen Xingze's first film.

The film that starred in and starred for the first time, against cultural aesthetic differences and the world’s lack of objective appreciation of Chinese films, went so far as to cut a **** road, nominated the best actor, and was still a potential contestant...

The whole country is boiling!

The whole star is also boiling.

Parents are even happier than Wen Xingze himself. There is a mentality that their children have passed the Qingbei entrance examination for college entrance examinations, and they can’t wait to banquet guests with trumpets.

They know best how much effort Zai Zai has put into today, and how much he wants this nomination.

However, this unreserved happiness did not last long.

Just when parents of all ethnic groups couldn’t help but want to make a phone call, open a video, or go directly to the world to hug the cubs, a mechanical sound that was very familiar but unexpected to everyone suddenly sounded, accompanied by BGM:

"In the distant ancient blue star, there is such a human being. His name is Wen Xingze and he lives in the capital of China. Since last summer, you have spent a long time with the cubs, and accompanied the cubs from the lowest point of life. Gu came out of the predicament, accompanied the cubs to grow up, experience wind and rain, and finally got the current glory..."

"Congratulations to the parents, you have successfully reached the normal ending of "Cubs Raising Plan" [Life is Complete], and the game is cleared!"

The parents did not speak, and suddenly there was a bad feeling.

And the mechanical tone continued:

"There is always a feast in the world. After the game is cleared, Cubs will continue to live their own happy lives on the earth. I am very grateful to the parents for their company and dedication during this time."

"And, goodbye."

"Because the game ending has been successfully reached, in order to avoid excessive chaos in the causal chain and further interference in the earth's civilization, the connection between the two universes will be severed, and the light tower system will soon be offline."

"Countdown three..."

"two."

"One!"
