The girl didn't recognize the person in front of her at all. It was Lan Li-Hall, who has been in the limelight recently, walking in a curly pace, learning the style of the street/prostitute/girl, showing off her sex/sense, and walks away. .

In fact, no one would have noticed this man sitting cross-legged at the abandoned cruel door. This is an ordinary homeless man. There are countless homeless people in the streets and lanes of the Bronx. If you go under the bridge or near the garbage dump, there will be hundreds of homeless people. There will be bonfire parties at night. It seems that there is no difference.

Naturally, no one would associate this dirty and sloppy man with the man that the news media was scrambling to report. However, even if nearby residents know that this is Lanly, what is important to them is not the person "Lanly-Hall", but the pecuniary interest behind this familiar name. In their view, Lan Li should be a rich man.

However, Lan Li at this moment is a complete tramp.

He was wearing a tattered T-shirt and a linen jacket, with a pair of open black boots on his feet, revealing the invisible socks; on his head he wore an open fisherman hat, and his squishy hair The gap came out; even the face was covered with all kinds of dust, the chin was covered with messy beard, the facial features were almost indistinguishable; the linen bag at hand was stuffed with all kinds of Waste, with lamps, shoes, clothes, and books, is like a treasure bag.

Dirty, messy, sloppy, embarrassed, vicissitudes, and desolate, such a tramp has no flaws.

Ten days ago, Lanly officially ended all recording of the album, and then he met Tony Kaye for a brief meeting. The "detachment" shooting location has been discussed. The crew and a high school signed a two-month shooting agreement. However, they must wait for the high school students to finish their final exams before they can start shooting. Therefore, the crew determined the start-up time. After the final exam, the filming started immediately. There were still two full weeks before the meeting.

When deciding to take over the filming of this work, Lan Li had already determined the direction of performance: this is a graduation test of expressive acting skills, giving him a platform to truly show what he has learned so far. , Especially the basic skills learned in the academy, as well as things honed by the West End and Broadway.

In the past three months, Lan Li has flipped through the script of "Transcendence" more than forty times, and the pages of the script have been turned over with burrs. He repeatedly, seriously, and carefully pondered the script. Every role in the game. It’s not just Henry, including every character with or without opponents, and then had many exchanges with the screenwriter Karl Lund, understanding the background of each character’s birth, and understanding Karl’s original intention and ideas for writing the script. .

For performance-based acting, reading the script is the foundation of the entire performance and the most important thing.

These repeated readings and understandings gave Lan Li a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the source of Tony and Carl's artistic thoughts. He knows that performance-based acting does not need to be experienced or involved in it, but he still decided to further explore the role, but it is different from before.

Instead of trying to figure out Henry’s growth experience and life background, Lan Li decided to use Henry’s perspective to observe the group of children mentioned in "Transcendence", the group of desperate children, the group of children who chose to give up They. Strictly speaking, this is not Henry's perspective, but the perspective of Tony and Carl, or the perspective of a bystander.

Because Lan Li is eager to learn more, what is the real despair? What is the real walking dead? Their lives continued, but they stayed where they were.

This is a completely unfamiliar field for the two-life Ren Li. In the previous life, he first devoted himself to studying, and then was trapped in a hospital bed. The movie entrusted his dreams and longings; this In his lifetime, he has always enriched himself, music, literature, art, performance, and even sports. But from beginning to end, he never gave up, never truly despaired.

The difference between "Anti-Cancer Me" and "Transcendence" is that Adam and Henry both face the abyss of despair. Adam tried to resist but had to leave his destiny to the unknown, while Henry tried to resist but finally chose give up. This kind of "despair" is abstract, and Lan Li can use expressionist performance to interpret it, but he hopes to make the abstract concrete and enriched.

As a result, Lan Li turned into a tramp.

It's not the kind of coming to experience it during the day and going back to your apartment at night to enjoy the blessing; it's really living as a homeless man. Since ten days ago.

Lan Li thought he was a man who had suffered. Not to mention that the whole body was hurt during the shooting of "Speed ​​and Excitement/Love 5", and the confrontation with Van Diesel is not as lightly as it seems; just to say the torture of the coffin before the shooting of "Buried alive", mental and physical were overdrawn Limit, but he still clenched his teeth and persevered.

But only after the real experience did he know that he was still too naive.

As a human being for two lives, Lan Li has never really endured hardships. In the previous life, Ding Yanan’s wings were enough to cover the wind and rain. Life was not rich, but it was not enough to eat and wear. In this life, let alone, the life of the down-and-out nobles is still comparable to that of the middle class, and the living conditions are even better than those of the previous life. Even better.

However, in the past ten days, Lan Li has really been on the streets, even finding a shelter from the wind and rain is extremely difficult, and learning the rules of the street with peril.

Now Lan Li clearly remembers the first day that the homeless man experienced life. That night, he had no experience, he didn't know where to go to sleep, or where to go to get warm. After night fell, Lan Li really knew that New York's midsummer could be so cold that the whole person shivered.

In the end, he chose Central Park, which seemed to be the right choice for homeless sleepers. He found a bench, slept in his clothes, closed his eyes, and tried to summon sleepiness, but it was not an easy task.

Because I didn’t take a shower, I lay all over my body dirty. The sticky, wet, and cold feeling made every inch of my skin uncomfortable. Even on the first day, under psychological influence, it was still uncomfortable. Feeling itchy all over.

And the benches in the Central Park are not the beds of a five-star hotel. I won’t say the tough wooden slats. The ventilation on all sides is also good. The point is that people pass by all the time, making all kinds of strange noises, which are dangerous The signal is always lingering, and Lan Li is simply tossing and turning, and he can't even close his eyes.

The whole person is in a situation of high mental tension, but the worse is still behind. He just squinted his eyes and was first driven out by the tramp because he occupied other people’s territory, and then he was chased by the police/survey and ran away. In the middle of the night, I finally found a vacant seat on the bench by the roadside, waiting in a daze for the sunrise in a panic.

Sitting and sitting, I started to doze off without knowing it, and then I was awakened from the cold, looking at the boundless darkness around me, I regained my energy, but then my body started to get hot and cold again, and the whole person was shivering from the cold. , Occasionally seeing passers-by, and you must be fully alert. You can vaguely see the drunks roaming around the corner of the street, and those penetrating shadows seem to be looking for a good opportunity to kill.

Such a scene reminds people of the era of Jack the Ripper.

To make matters worse, without eating anything in the afternoon, the stomach began to protest, grunting. I was worried about taking a bath before, but now it seems that food and clothing are the top priority.

That night, he just sat on the bench and waited quietly for the sunrise. When the sun came out, the dangerous breath would dissipate like a tide.

But compared to the Bronx, the previous embarrassment can only be regarded as sprinkling water. At this moment, Lan Li can calmly squat on the corner of the street, observing everything here, this is all through the streets. Otherwise, it is estimated that the girl will go to Lan Li directly, let him taste what is called a shrew.

Not only that, he also became a qualified tramp.

After getting up every morning, he must find a place to brush his teeth. The sprinklers on the lawn in Central Park and the toilets in the subway station are all good choices. Then he goes to the relief station to pick up food, but some cans, handmade sandwiches or supermarkets. The food is about to expire, but even so, you must be careful, otherwise you may be kicked out of the team by unruly blacks, or the food may be snatched by the starving homeless.

It’s always difficult at night. The homeless gathering place under the bridge is a good place. There will be bonfires, and there will be a large number of "companions~lightnovelpub.net~ You won’t lose your life halfway through sleep, but The disadvantages are also obvious. Here, whoever has the big fist is the king. It does not mean that you can survive by adhering to the principle of "no money is revealed". Sometimes just a misplaced vision can cause disputes. The survival of the weak and the fittest in nature is not easy to survive here.

Of course, some people are more cunning, avoiding the supervision of police officers, lying in subway stations or hidden places in Central Park, they can often sleep peacefully, and some people even sleep directly in the subway-as long as they can avoid work The investigation before the staff leaves work is enough, not only to shelter the wind and rain, but also to be warmer.

The perfect place is McDonald's. However, that is a prime location. It should not be too early. If there are too many customers, the clerk must rush people; it should not be too late, as the position will soon be robbed. As long as you can occupy a place in McDonald's, then this night couldn't be better.

If that's all, it doesn't seem to be that difficult to survive on the street. But in the Bronx, this is just a basic survival rule. After night falls, how to avoid the area where the drug/traffickers do transactions, how to avoid the area where the gang handles "private affairs", how to avoid the sensitive area where the gangs border, This is the most important.

Because, if one is not careful, then you won't see the sun tomorrow.
