After getting in the taxi, Gu Ran took out his cell phone and sent a text message to Sophie:
[Sophie, I'm on my way to Southampton train station. Let's meet at the station.] [Oh, by the way, remember to bring the book I gave you. We'll discuss it after we get on the train.] From Southampton to London, it's only about 120 kilometers. If you don't have a private car, taking the train is the most comfortable.
Didi——
Sophie's text message came back quickly: [I don't want to communicate with you! You said this morning that I was as stupid as Sansa in the book! I'm still angry now!] Gu Ran quickly replied: [Don't be angry, blame me for not explaining it clearly this morning. I'll explain it to you on the train.] Sophie didn't reply again.
After arriving at the station, Gu Ran bought two luxury compartment tickets directly at the ticket window, each costing up to 300 pounds.
Most train tickets in the UK are very cheap, but there are also luxury lines. The tickets for luxury lines are even more expensive than air tickets. The environment of the luxurious private rooms is comparable to that of a five-star hotel, and the service you enjoy is absolutely royal.
I have jerked off Sophie so many times, so I must compensate her well during this trip to London.
After buying the ticket, Gu Ran found a conspicuous spot in the hall and sat down to rest.
More than half an hour later, Sophie finally arrived.
Sophie was obviously dressed much more maturely than she had been in the morning.
Gu Ran went over to take Sophie's suitcase and said, "Sophie, you're just in time. Our train has already arrived."
Sophie said, "I'll go buy the tickets."
Gu Ran said: "I have already bought it for you."
Sophie said proudly: "We southern girls are independent. We never take advantage of boys. I will give you whatever you spend."
"Oh, that's not necessary."
"How much? I must give it to you!" Sophie took out her wallet without hesitation and opened it, ready to pay.
Gu Ran shrugged. "Not much, just about 300 pounds."
Sophie thought she had heard wrongly, "How much???"
She had secretly saved some money for this audition, but the total amount she had on her body was only 200 pounds!
Gu Ran took Sophie's suitcase and said, "Let's go, get in the car first."
Sophie followed Gu Ran and frowned, "Gu, I know you want to treat me to a ride, but you don't have to lie! It's not like I haven't bought a train ticket from Southampton to London before, and it was at most 3.6 pounds! You actually said you spent 3--"
Before Sophie could finish her words, she was completely stunned.
Two standard British butlers in tuxedos were inviting her and Gu Ran to the luxurious aristocratic box with a hospitality that she had never enjoyed before.
The box is filled with a high-end and sophisticated atmosphere.
Even the floors leading to the private rooms are made of high-quality pine wood.
Everything in the noble box was glittering with gold and full of class.
What made Sophie's heart pound even more was that there was only a large bed in this luxurious aristocratic box, and the bed was covered with heart-shaped rose petals.
"Miss, Sir, I wish you two a pleasant journey. If you need us, please feel free to call us at any time."
After taking Gu Ran's tip, the noble butler bowed slightly and closed the door of the box.
Gu Ran threw himself on the big bed and exclaimed sincerely: "For only 300 pounds per person, we can enjoy the real aristocratic treatment. It's really worth it!"
Sophie stamped her feet anxiously, "Gu Ran, why did you mess up the bed? I want to refund my ticket and change trains! This ticket is too expensive!"
Gu Ran smiled and said, "It's okay. I'll cover all the expenses for this trip to London. Sophie, all you have to do is lie down and enjoy it."
"You..." Sophie said anxiously, "Even if it's your money, you can't spend it carelessly! Get up quickly, I want to see if I can restore the roses on the bed before we drive, so that we can refund the ticket and change to a regular car."
Gu Ran grabbed a handful of roses and sprinkled them on Sophie.
Sophie: …
Gu Ran smiled and said, "Okay, now you don't have to think too much. This train is very slow and it will take about two hours to get to London, so we have to hurry up and communicate well. Of course, if necessary, we may need to communicate repeatedly."
"That's right. So let's not waste time." Gu Ran opened Sophie's suitcase and took out the first copy of "Game of Thrones". "Let's talk about the character of Sansa."
Sophie: …
Gu Ran opened the book and began to use the knowledge from his previous life to deconstruct for Sophie the role of Sansa, a role that seems simple but is actually very profound and requires a lot of acting skills.
Of course, during the deconstruction, Gu Ran also activated the director's communication skills.
Sophie didn't think anything of it at first, but in less than a minute, she was completely conquered by Gu Ran's deconstruction of the character and the main plot!
Sophie seemed to have opened up a new world! Sophie's understanding of the role was elevated to a higher level! Through Gu Ran's deconstruction, Sophie realized that the "Sansa" character she hated the most was actually the growing heroine that Martin created with the most effort.
"Game of Thrones" is not an idol drama! You can't read the character of Sansa with the mentality of watching idol dramas like "Twilight".
The character of Sansa, from a cold and arrogant noble lady who wanted to marry into the royal family at the beginning, to a helpless, desperate, compromising and submissive walking corpse, and then to a complete awakening who no longer relied on anyone and became a real wolf girl, is definitely a realistic heroine.
While Sophie was listening attentively, she couldn't help but look at Gu Ran with admiration as he spoke nonstop.
It was not until this moment that she truly realized Gu Ran's charm.
"Gu, how do you know the rest of the story? How do you know so much?"
"I...deduced it based on my personal ability." Gu Ran explained realistically without blushing or beating his heart.
Sophie's eyes were full of admiration. "Your deduction makes so much sense! It's as if you know how Martin will write! At first, I just thought you were a test-taking machine, but later I found out that you are also very good at playing football. But now I realize that your real talent is in the film and television industry! Gu! Really, you can write a script! With your talent and insights, you can definitely become the most sought-after screenwriter in Hollywood!"
Oh shit! It’s true.
If I meet a down-and-out female movie star, I can just give her a script. Wouldn’t she love me to death?
If I meet a down-and-out female singer, I can just give her a lyric that can win a Grammy Award. Wouldn’t she love me to death?
However, I still have to wait for this kind of thing. Although I know the plots of the hit movies in the next 12 years, knowing the plots and writing them down in a professional script style are two different things! I haven’t learned the scriptwriting skills for free yet, and if I just rely on my current English level to write, I’m still a little bit behind.
Besides... can typing be as fun as playing football???
Gu Ran looked sideways at a 45-degree angle and said calmly, "I really just want to play football."
Sophie wanted to persuade him again, but Gu Ran waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's get back to the topic we were talking about. In short, Sansa is by no means an ordinary role. This kind of tense role is the real test of acting skills. To play this role, you must first be beautiful, and you must be really young and tender, and be able to show the naive, childish, and vain feelings of a young girl. Later, you must also show the emotions of helplessness, sadness and despair. Finally, you must also show the ferociousness and oppression of a true wolf queen. I think you are the best candidate for this role. I have marked all the plots of Sansa in the book, and you can try to play it tonight."
"Ah?" Sophie hesitated and said, "Wait, Gu, I have to go to the crew for an audition tomorrow. I should have a good rest tonight. Let's try the role another day."
Gu Ran said, "Another day? No, no, no, we can't do it another day. This is... a good opportunity for you to improve your acting skills. Besides, what if you're lucky and the crew lets you audition for a scene from Game of Thrones?"
Sophie chuckled. "How could it be such a coincidence? If this really is Game of Thrones, I would even give you the rest of my life!"
A smile appeared on Gu Ran's lips, "You said it! Tonight, you should try to act out some of Sansa's scenes."
Sophie shrugged. "Well, let's just treat it as a chance to hone our acting skills before the battle. It's definitely not going to happen anyway."
Gu Ran lay comfortably on the big bed.
Sophie suddenly had a strange feeling in her heart: ...It shouldn't be possible, right? If it is really possible...
Sophie couldn't help but secretly glance at Gu Ran. If it were really possible, it would be great...
I don’t know why, but the title of the previous chapter was deleted by the system.
I didn't dare to make any changes, for fear that any changes would trigger new problems.
That's it, although it's a bit unfriendly to people with obsessive-compulsive disorder.
By the way, please read on, thank you everyone.
