Chapter 321 Pen pals finally meet


Chapter 321 The pen pals finally meet

The plot of the Water Splashing Festival is not complicated.

A Tian, ​​played by Yang Ye, takes an elephant to participate in the Water Splashing Festival. When he meets Yu Xiang, played by Yang Liping, the two naturally have fun.

Then someone took advantage of the chaos to steal an elephant, but A Tian's father discovered and stopped him. Unexpectedly, the other person actually pulled out a gun.

There was a gunshot, and when A Tian rushed over, the old father had already fallen into a pool of blood, and the elephant was also loaded into a truck and taken away.

Although the plot is simple, it is not easy to film the scene of this Water Splashing Festival.

Because the fellow villagers have never seen filming and are curious, they can’t help but look at the camera.

The crew said, "Don't watch it, you are just doing your own thing."

No, I still can't help but watch it!

In the end, we had to ask Secretary Wang to come out. Secretary Wang scolded anyone who looked at the camera again and said they would go home and their wages would be gone. Only then would the fellow villagers be honest.

After two days of fun, the trick was finally finished. The fellow villagers lined up to receive the money and went home happily.

You can eat, play, and get money. It’s really fun. They all asked the artist comrades when they would be filming again?

More than a thousand people spent less than 5,000 yuan including meals and wages.

If this was shot in Hong Kong, there would be so many people, and costumes would have to be provided, which would be impossible without hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars.

“We’ll finish shooting the last scene tomorrow morning and call it a day. Pack your things tonight and leave tomorrow after shooting!”

......

The next day, by the Lancang River.

A Tian and Yu Xiang said goodbye reluctantly.

“When will you come back?”

“Come back as soon as you find Boai and Xiaokang!”

Yuxiang took off the necklace around her neck and put it into A Tian's hand: "You can exchange this for some money!"

A Tian held the necklace tightly in his hand and said reluctantly: " I'm leaving!"

"Well! "

A Tian climbed onto the carriage for the market and soon disappeared in the distance. Yuxiang was still standing by the river!

……

Yang Ye took a stroll in the carriage and came back again, asking: "Have everything been packed?"

Everyone said that they were packed together, and Yang Ye said: "Let's go!"

A group of people got on a borrowed bus and left Mengla Commune with a bumpy ride. They arrived at the county seat, Jinghong City, the capital of Xishuangbanna, in the evening.

In fact, it’s not that far. The main reason is that these days it’s all mountain roads, and it takes a long time to go around.

The crew will stay one night locally, then take the train to Kunming the next morning, and then transfer to a plane back to Hong Kong.

After dinner, everyone in the crew went to the light night market with great interest!

Yang Ye asked Yang Liping: "Do you want to go shopping?"

Yang Liping said nonchalantly: "Okay!"

Jinghong City is a small place and there is no night market How big it is, you can finish shopping in just a few times.

Seeing Yang Liping picking out a comb with great interest, Yang Ye smiled and said, "You must have exhausted this place, right?"

Yang Liping shook her head: "The Lighting Night Market only emerged in the past two years. When I left Xishuangbanna, it didn't exist here yet!" Established to address the livelihood issues of those without fixed jobs, they have sprung up all over the country as soon as they were launched.

Whenever night falls, hundreds of temporary stalls are set up along both sides of the street. With electric lights turned on, all kinds of goods are dazzling and the lights are bright. It has become a good place for sightseeing, cooling off and shopping at night.

Yang Ye asked: "Then what did you do at night?"

"There is nothing to do, read a book, sleep, what about you?"

Yang Ye briefly talked about the nightlife in Hong Kong, and by the way, he also talked about what people in Tokyo, Paris, Los Angeles and other places do at night... Hearing this, Yang Liping's eyes were filled with excitement.

"It turns out that you have been to so many places, and the world is so rich and colorful!"

Yang Ye shook his head and said: "Actually, I just said that, it has been a long time since I had a real experience. Passed."

"Why?"

"I was famous for my movies nine years ago. Wherever I go, there are a lot of people watching, and I want to be as free as I am now. Visiting the night market is naturally impossible. ”

Yang Liping said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to be so famous. So, the mainland is your pure land?" It's going to be shown in China."

"I've seen your movie, and your video tape is very hard to find."

"Yes. Because it’s so exciting! People keep borrowing it, and after a while, the tape will be worn out.”

"Haha! Which one is your favorite?"

""The Swordsman", it's so chic and unrestrained, it makes people yearn for that place. I really want to ride with Linghu Chong and travel around the world."

"In fact, with your dancing skills, you will have to travel on behalf of the country sooner or later. As time goes by, you, the peacock from the East, will probably not be less famous than the swan from the West."

Yang Ye Yang Liping praised Yang Liping's peacock dance for being able to compete with ballet, which surprised her: "Is it that great?"

Yang Ye said firmly: "Time will tell everything!"

He saw several barbecue stalls in front of him and asked, "Would you like some barbecue?"

Yang Liping wanted to maintain her figure, but it was hard to refuse, so she said, "A little is fine, but not too much!"< br>
“Then let’s have something to eat!”

The two of them found a seat and sat down. When the lady boss saw that the two of them looked extraordinary, she quickly came up to entertain them warmly.

The barbecue stall in this place is very unique. It has a long bench, covered with door panels and plastic sheets, which serves as both a chopping board and a dining table. Many people sit and eat.

Yang Ye spent 20 cents to buy ten roasted tofu, 10 cents to buy a plate of salted peanuts, 30 cents to buy a roasted pig's knuckle, and asked Yang Liping: "Do you want to drink?"

"Drink some!" ”

I spent another 20 cents to buy two cups of Laobaigan!

Yang Liping clinked glasses with Yang Ye, took a sip of wine, peeled salted peanuts, and asked: "I see in Hong Kong movies, those people drink foreign wine. Can you get used to drinking this wine?" ?”

“What’s the point? I grew up in a slum. What kind of hardships have I experienced? Although this Lao Baigan is cheap, it is authentic grain wine and is not adulterated. It is a good wine in Hong Kong. .”

Yang Liping asked curiously: "Then how did you become a director later?"

Yang Ye said in an understatement: "I was poor and had no way out, so I practiced martial arts! After practicing all over Hong Kong, I went to Japan to fight, and finally I fought all the way. "To the United States."

Needless to say, Yang Liping felt the same way, because she had been practicing this way since she was a child. She never went to a dance school and relied on her talent to dance from a small village in Yunnan to the Central Ethnic Song and Dance Troupe.

"But having said that, hard work is only a small aspect. I am one of those people with extraordinary talents. Otherwise, hard work will be useless!"

Yang Liping chuckled: "Generally successful people will boast about how much hard work they have put in. For you, it is better to attribute it to your talent."

Yang Ye said: "American inventor Edison once said that genius is 1% talent + 99% perspiration, but without this 1% inspiration, 99% of the perspiration is in vain. So, hard work alone is useless."

Yang Liping said in surprise: "So there is a second half to this sentence?"

Yang Ye pretended to be surprised and said: "Don't you know?"

Yang Liping shook her head: "I only know the first half of the sentence. Many famous quotes from famous schools include Edison's sentence."

Yang Ye was stunned for a moment and said, "Is that so?"

"Alas!"

Yang Liping couldn't help but sigh when she thought that she had been deceived by lies, and she yearned even more for the outside world.

In fact, the so-called second half of the sentence is simply a rumor. It was born in China after the millennium. Before that, this sentence could not be found.

Of course, the first half of the sentence that everyone is familiar with is actually a rumor. It was also born in China. After searching all the information about Edison, I can't find him saying this sentence.

It’s fun to use rumors to crush rumors!

Yang Yekai explained: "Actually, it doesn't matter. A sentence does not make sense because Edison said it, nor does it make sense because it was not said by Edison. It is better to believe in a book than to have no book at all. I think everything must be echoed. It’s ridiculous to look for presence in celebrities.”

It’s easy to talk to smart people. Yang Liping quickly felt relieved and asked: “When will your movie be released?”
< br>"Probably next summer vacation!" "Will it be released in China?"

"No!"

Yang Liping couldn't help but feel a little disappointed after hearing this.

Yang Ye said: "How about I invite you to attend the premiere in Hong Kong?"

"What is the premiere?"

"It is held before a movie is released. Celebrations.”

“Can it be like this?” Yang Liping found it very interesting. “I don’t know if the group will approve it or not!”

"This is simple. I just ask the comrades from the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office to talk to your leaders."

Yang Liping was very surprised and said: "Why do you have so much face?"

Yang Ye smiled and said : "I am a patriotic Chinese. I have a TV station in Hong Kong and broadcasting companies in Southeast Asia and even the Americas, which can help the country speak for itself."

Yang Liping understood: "I see, then I'll go!"

……

The next day, everyone went their separate ways. Yang Liping returned to the capital and the crew returned to Hong Kong. However, Yang Ye temporarily separated from the crew and went to Chengdu.

Yang Ye got off the plane at Tianfu Airport, and Zhang Guohua from Leshan Culture and Tourism Bureau was already waiting there with others.

Zhang Guohua shook hands with Yang Ye enthusiastically: "Director Yang, we meet again!"

"Director Zhang, please come to Chengdu to pick me up."

"Director Yang has made our Leshan famous all over the world. Not to mention coming to pick you up in Chengdu, even if we go to the capital to pick you up, that's what we should do."

"Thank you, thank you!"

Since the Leshan Sleeping Buddha became famous overseas, many Buddhists have gone to Leshan to admire the majestic appearance of the Sleeping Buddha. As a result, a small LS city has to receive foreign guests at every turn. , the importance of Zhang Guohua, the director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau, suddenly rose.

And Yang Ye is simply the God of Wealth in Leshan. When Zhang Guohua sees Yang Ye, he will be a fool if he is not enthusiastic.

In recognition of Yang Ye’s contribution to Leshan, Leshan gave Yang Ye the title of honorary citizen.

To be honest, due to Yang Ye's worldwide fame, he would not be interested in the title of honorary citizen at all.

Unexpectedly, Yang Ye not only accepted it gladly, but also gave him face. He planned to come to Leshan in person to receive the honorary certificate and badge.

This made the Leshan government so happy that it held an "honoration conference" specially for Yang Ye.

After arriving in Leshan, Yang Ye was very cooperative and went through all the procedures. He even made a gimmick in the Guanfo Building by inviting citizens to eat boiled fish, which attracted countless citizens to watch!

After three days of commotion, Yang Ye was personally sent back to Chengdu by the mayor and took the next day's flight back to Hong Kong.

After everyone had dispersed, Yang Ye picked up the hotel phone, dialed a number, and then went out.

There were no taxis at this time, so Yang Ye got on a human-powered tricycle, lay on it, and walked leisurely to Yulin Road.

The man pulling the cart didn’t know Yang Ye, so he started talking to him about household matters: “Where are the guests coming from?”

Yang Ye said casually: “Guangzhou!”

"The accent doesn't sound right."

"I used to study broadcasting."

"Let me just say, your Mandarin is very good. Are you coming to Chengdu for a trip?"

"Look at your girlfriend!"

"Your girlfriend is from Chengdu, right?"

“Yes!”

“Then how did you get in touch?”

"Write letters! We have been communicating for two years."

"It's so interesting. Do you know what your girlfriend looks like?"

"Yes, I'll look at the photo. Yeah!”

“It’s so interesting!”

Yang Ye talked with this guy and finally got there.

After paying the money and sending the guy away, Yang Ye looked at the time and saw that there was still half an hour left, so he wandered around in the street.

The street is very quiet, and many elderly people are chatting and playing chess under the trees, very comfortable.

Wandering all the way to the end, Yang Ye found a stone stool and sat on it to rest. He didn't know how long he sat there. Night gradually fell and there were more and more people on the street.

“Hello!”

Someone gently tapped Yang Ye on the shoulder.

Yang Ye turned around and saw a girl in a white shirt standing there with a pretty smile and a shy expression. Who else could she be if she wasn't Zhu Lin?

Yang Ye and Zhu Lin have been pen pals for two years. They correspond almost every month, chatting about the stars and the moon, from poems and songs to life ideals. This time they went to the mainland to film, so naturally they wanted to meet up. one side.

The so-called going to Leshan to accept the title of honorary citizen is just an excuse for Yang Ye to cover up!

“Long time no see!”

“Long time no see!”

"How did you find me?"

"Your clothes are very different from the locals, very conspicuous!"

"That's it, let's go!"

Yang Ye stood up and walked forward casually. Zhu Lin followed him, half a step behind.

“You are here, why don’t you go to the factory?”

"I'm passing through Chengdu and will leave tomorrow morning. If I go to the factory, Director Du will make a grand ceremony, which will be too troublesome, so meeting you once is enough."

"Yes. !" Zhu Lin hummed, wrapped her fingers around the corners of her clothes, and followed Yang Ye without saying anything.

"What is this?" Yang Ye pointed to a roadside shop. There was a large pot outside with half a pot of honeycomb-shaped stuff boiling inside.

“This is bean curd.”

“Is it delicious?”

"You are from Hong Kong, so you probably can't get used to it!"

"Try it!"

Yang Ye pulled Zhu Lin to sit down on a small stool: "Boss, please have two bowls of beancurd." . ”

“Okay, two bowls of bean curd!”

The store quickly served two bowls of bean curd, added a bunch of spicy pepper, and two bowls of rice.

Yang Ye asked strangely: "Why is there still rice?"

Zhu Lin smiled and said: "Bean curd rice, for many people, this is just a dinner."

"So that's it , let’s order some more!”

Yang Ye saw that there were many stoves on the floor of the shop, and there were many dishes stewed in the pots on the stoves, so he ordered a few things at random, including tripe, fat intestines, and hoof flowers. , braised pork ribs with potatoes, etc., I spent a dollar, set up a table, and started to enjoy it.

Zhu Lin smiled and said: "I didn't expect that a big boss like you would be used to eating like this."

Yang Ye said: "I remember I told you in my letter that I grew up in a slum, right?"

"Well!"

"On the contrary, it's you, the first time I invite you. You won’t be unhappy if you eat at the street stalls?”

“No, the food at these stalls are delicious!”

“That’s it! Let’s do this, let’s go shopping after dinner!”

"Yes!" Zhu Lin agreed and lowered her head to eat.
