Chapter 97 Lu Yuan rejected the invitation...



"Have you heard?"

"What did you hear?"

"Just now when I passed by the office, I heard the teachers in the office discussing inviting new lecturers..."

"Is this true? A new lecturer? What will he be talking about?"

"The Art of Piano..."

"Wasn't this course taught by Teacher Chen before? It's so boring just reading from the textbook..."

"This time it's different, guess who will be invited?"

"who?"

"Lu Ergouzi..."

"What? Is this true? Lu Er Gouzi Lu Yuan? The arranger of "To Alice"?"

"Yeah, by the way, did you watch the video of yesterday's concert?"

"Nonsense, why didn't I watch it when it was so popular online? I watched it in its entirety several times..."

"Yes, if everything goes well, Lu Er Gouzi will become our new lecturer!"

"Puchi, sorry, I don't know why I want to laugh when I think of him. I don't doubt Lu Ergou's talent, I just, just, this guy... is very humorous... Hahaha, I want to laugh when I think of him..."

"Haha, that seems interesting..."

"yes."

evening.

The sun slowly sets, and from afar the sunset glows in the sky, creating streaks of crimson...

In the camera, a man looked up blankly at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, and subconsciously waved his hand to drive away the flies that were staring at him.

When he waved his hand, the fly flew aside, and when he stopped waving, the fly flew back and bit his face.

He was helpless and finally closed his eyes and chose to ignore the flies.

He couldn't keep the flies away.

"Mom, is this person dead?" A little boy held his mother's hand and looked at him curiously, with sympathy on his young face.

"Go away, it stinks. Don't get close to people like this in the future, or you'll get sick."

"oh……"

The mother hurriedly pulled the little boy and quickened her pace, as if she was escaping from a plague.

He was dirty and disgusting, and the people around him frowned with disgust when they saw him.

There are many homeless people in this world. They live at the bottom of the world and live in a daze every day...

They don’t know the meaning of life, what to do, or where to go…

He was just one of many homeless people, and he was also a drug addict...

He closed his eyes and ignored the pedestrians who were covering their noses.

A few minutes later, when the sun set and there were fewer people walking around, he was lingering in the alley like an old dog, holding a cigarette he had picked up from somewhere, with a look of surprise on his face. He took a deep breath in a mad and obsessed way, and then he closed his eyes, and then he lay on the cold ground with his arms outstretched as if he had reached heaven...

There was an expression of enjoyment on the dirty face.

“Click, click”

“Pah.”

“Pah, pah, pah.”

However, his whole body began to twitch immediately afterwards, and the world that seemed like heaven collapsed, leaving him with only the pain of being whipped. Then endless suffocation came from all directions like a tide, impacting his body. He spat out yellow saliva and began to cough, his thin face looking haggard.

He seemed to see death...

But he didn't die...

Then he lowered his head and laughed.

The smile grew louder and louder...

Seems ironic.

It seems funny.

Then he continued to cough, as if he was a terminally ill person.

He is Lu Yuan.

This scene is the beginning of the prologue of "The Wanderer".

The slightly fat guy shot in front of the camera for a whole day and finally captured this scene.

"Shit! Perfect!"

Fatty Wei looked at Lu Yuan excitedly, his eyes flashing with disbelief.

He had never expected that Lu Yuan's expressiveness was so strong. He could use facial expressions and body language to portray the temperament of a homeless drug addict so vividly. If he didn't know Lu Yuan, he would even think that Lu Yuan himself was a homeless person.

Lu Yuan brought this character to life.

Even like a real homeless person!

After filming this scene, Lu Yuan did not immediately stand up and remove his makeup.

He pondered the script for a long time and read many acting books...

At first, he just wanted to imitate the appearance of the homeless man in his memory, and to carry himself through the play by acting out his true self when smoking. However, as he was acting, he found himself in a very strange state. The plots of "A Street Cat Named Bob" and "The Wanderer" were all imprinted in Lu Yuan's mind and kept lingering. The fusion of the two seemed to produce a transformation that he could not even describe.

He felt the character's decadent and self-indulgent mentality...

He had some realization and began to analyze the man's psychological changes.

Everyone is born positive and full of hope.

However, when hope turns into disappointment, and is repeatedly dashed, and reality hits us again and again, everyone begins to develop an escapist mentality and loses themselves.

That's all I'll leave it at that.

This is all I can do.

Oh, maybe this is all I can do.

To live is like to be dead.

Countless negative emotions intertwined in this person's soul at this moment, causing him to slowly walk towards the abyss.

"Ayuan, are you okay?" Fatty Wei asked subconsciously after seeing the trance and confusion on Lu Yuan's face.

Lu Yuan's acting was so realistic.

It was so realistic that even Fatty Wei was a little scared.

Is this acting talent?

This is horrible.

"Huh, not bad." Lu Yuan nodded and wiped off his makeup. He didn't feel anything during the filming just now, but after it was over, he felt that the thing on his face was disgusting.

"Ayuan, have you fully understood this role?"

"I can't say that I have fully understood it, but I feel that I have a resonance with this homeless man..."

"resonance?"

"Yeah, I don't know how to describe this feeling, but the next scene shouldn't be a problem to shoot. Let's get ready and start shooting the next scene."

"OK."

Although the first day's shooting was not as exciting as passing it in one take, Lu Yuan was still very satisfied with it overall.

At least there were no delays in the progress, and he found that he could indeed play the role well.

That's enough.

The shooting period of this film "The Wanderer" is one month. Lu Yuan had no idea about it before, but after a series of events today, Lu Yuan felt that he should be able to complete it as scheduled.

He breathed a sigh of relief, at least he didn't have to pay money from outside.

It's nice not to overspend.

call!

In the evening, night gradually falls...

After returning to the company with Fatty Wei and his group, Lu Yuan discovered that there was a tall middle-aged man standing under the street light at the entrance of the company.

"Principal Zheng!"

Fatty Wei was stunned when he saw the middle-aged man, and he wiped his eyes.

"Who is Principal Zheng?" Lu Yuan was suddenly surprised when he saw Fatty Wei's excited look.

"Principal Zheng from Yanying, don't you know him?"

"I don't know..." Lu Yuan nodded.

"What is he doing in our company?"

“I don’t know, maybe just passing by?”

"I don't think so... He's waiting for someone!"

Just when Fatty Wei and Lu Yuan were wondering, the middle-aged man turned around and saw Lu Yuan, and immediately walked towards Lu Yuan with a warm smile.

"Hello, is this Xiao Lu? Have you just come back from filming?"

"Um, yes, hello, Principal Zheng..." Lu Yuan and Zheng Jianguo shook hands. Lu Yuan was a little confused about the situation.

"I saw your performance yesterday. It was amazing, really amazing!" Zheng Jianguo gave Lu Yuan a thumbs up.

"Ahem, ahem, I'm so ashamed. Principal Zheng, please come in quickly..."

"good……"

"Come, sit here, sit here... Qian Zhong, why are you standing there like an idiot? Why don't you come over to make some tea? Why are you acting like a wooden man..." Fatty Wei led Lu Yuan and Principal Zheng to sit down like a lackey, and then when he saw Qian Zhong standing there like an idiot, he kicked him quickly.

Qian Zhong reacted and hurried to make tea, but his eyes were always on Lu Yuan.

What is Principal Zheng doing here?

How could a high-ranking figure like Principal Zheng come to this shell company today?

"Xiao Lu, I never thought that the company of the director of Buried Alive would be so simple, like a studio... The furniture and appliances used are quite old. Haha, I didn't realize you are quite frugal... Young people are great."

"Ahem, ahem... Thank you for your compliment, thank you for your compliment..." Lu Yuan looked around subconsciously and his face turned red.

frugal?

Old furniture and appliances?

If he had money, how could he be so frugal?

frugal?

Does not exist.

"Haha, don't be modest. Maybe you can get inspiration only in a place like this... People who really engage in art are relatively simple..."

"Um...Principal Zheng, why are you here today..." Lu Yuan interrupted Zheng Jianguo's praise. He felt like he was getting goosebumps just by listening to what he said.

So embarrassing.

"Oh, Xiao Lu, I wonder if you are interested in being a lecturer at Yanying Film Studio, teaching those students about piano art to help them open their minds?" Zheng Jianguo looked at Lu Yuan with a smile, his eyes looking very sincere.

"Ah... this... how can this be possible? I don't know how to teach, I don't understand... this..." Lu Yuan was stunned when he heard this, and then quickly shook his head to refuse.

Let yourself become a lecturer?

What a joke! What can a fool like me say on stage?

Talk about piano techniques?

Talking about smoking skills is almost the same...

this……

"Xiao Lu, you don't have to be so modest. I was at the concert last night. I know your talent, and I believe the students in the school also hope that you can come and teach them..."

"Sorry, no, no, I really can't. I don't have the academic qualifications and I'm not qualified for the job... Principal Zheng, you should ask someone else..." Lu Yuan still refused.

It's okay for him to fill in the gaps, but how can he speak if he is asked to go to the podium?

It’s really hard to explain!

"Xiao Lu, I come here to invite you sincerely this time..."

"Principal Zheng, I understand. I am very grateful for your kindness, but I really can't go... I'm not afraid of you laughing at me when I tell you the truth. In fact, I don't know how to play the piano at all..."

"Xiao Lu...you are just..."

“…”

Half an hour later, Qian Zhong watched Lu Yuan stand up and see Zheng Jianguo, who looked regretful, out and into the car...

It can be seen that Zheng Jianguo is very disappointed.

Qian Zhong took a deep breath.

Fatty Wei also couldn't figure out the situation...

Principal Zheng of Yanying actually came to the company in person to invite Lu Yuan...

And Lu Yuan...

Lu Yuan refused!

He refused without any respect at all!

The other party is Principal Yan Ying!

What is Lu Yuan going to do?

Do you want to go to heaven?

“I got it, I got it!”

“I took that picture, too.”

“Hahahaha, I’m rich!”

"I knew there would be news if I stayed here!"

"Hahaha!"

"yes."

In the “remote” entertainment corner, several dark figures laughed excitedly.
