Actor: My Entertainment Era

"What are you looking at? You are so happy." It was late today and the two of them had washed up. Liu Yifei saw that Zhang Yuanjun was still not sleeping, and she was leaning on the bed with her tablet in her arms and was having fun.

Liu Yifei lay on the bed, put her husband's hand behind her head, leaned on his shoulder and looked at the tablet.

Zhang Yuanjun pointed at the tablet and smiled: "I just bought a script in the United States."

"Is it good? It's worth your smile."

"How can I be successful like this?" Zhang Yuanjun said.

Liu Yifei glanced at the title of the script on the tablet - "Manchester by the sea".
Zhang Yuanjun translated for her: "Manchester by the Sea."

"What a romantic name."

"It's so romantic. The place where this story takes place is called Manchester. It's a small town with a small population. In order to distinguish it from the Manchester in England, the residents of the town changed their Manchester to Manchester by the Sea."

After Zhang Yuanjun explained it, this name is really not romantic at all.

"Are you going to the United States to film?"

"If I don't go, I'm going to change it into a Chinese story and shoot it in China."

As if she didn't want to be compared with her husband, Liu Yifei said: "I've been reading a book recently."

"Yeah." Zhang Yuanjun's response was perfunctory.

"Many scripts come to me." Liu Yifei added.

"Yeah."

Liu Yifei took her husband's hand and took a bite. Zhang Yuanjun screamed in pain. Liu Yifei said: "Did you listen to me?"

Zhang Yuanjun then put down the tablet and tightened his hand on his wife: "Okay, okay, I won't read it. I'll listen to you. What books have you read?"

"Some are from China, and some are well-produced." Liu Yifei said, "I rejected the one that was well-produced because I didn't have time."

"What movie?"

""The Night Peacock" is a Sino-French co-production. We have Liu Huohua and Li Ming." Obviously, Liu Yifei is very satisfied with the lineup. "But this film will start shooting in January next year, and I don't want to take it. I'm too nervous."

"The Secret of the Dragon" will complete the domestic filming in December, and then rush to New York to shoot the remaining scenes and wrap up in March.

Zhang Yuanjun also disagreed with her taking on "Night Peacock". Let's not talk about the quality: "It will start filming in January, and the New Year will not be able to survive."

"That's what I said. After filming "The Secret of the Dragon" in December, I joined the cast again within a few days. I might even spend the New Year on the set, so I won't do it." After finally having 12 months of rest, Liu Yifei wanted to accompany her. Mom, I want to stay at home and sleep, but I don’t want to go to work.

Talking about the script she was reading recently, Liu Yifei smiled: "I thought of one. Someone asked me to play a campus romance. It's like a youth movie. Do you know how to fall in love?"

"Yeah." Zhang Yuanjun responded and said venomously, "I want you, a married woman, to star in a youth film? What did the crew think?"

Liu Yifei also found it funny. She can watch youth movies, but as a married woman, she would not want to act in a youth movie: "It was said to be the second part of "To Youth". I also replied, and I said that I have been married for several years. I’m planning to have a baby, and if I play this kind of school girl again, the audience won’t believe it.”

This is one reason, but there are many married actors and actresses in the industry. Another more important reason is that Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei are model couples in the industry. They are too exposed to the media and leave a very deep impression on the audience. , the couple now plays students, which will seriously affect the immersion of watching the movie.

Speaking of youth movies about campus romance, Liu Yifei suddenly asked her husband: "Are we considered a campus romance?"

"It doesn't count." Zhang Yuanjun was sure, "We only got together in 07, and we both graduated."

"Then it doesn't matter that we have such a good relationship at school!"

"I'm a good classmate and friend." Zhang Yuanjun opened his mouth.

"That's better." Liu Yifei has been trying to prove that Zhang Yuanjun had harbored evil intentions for her when she was in school. "Sitting by the school flower bed in the middle of the night and singing to me. Is this what good friends do?"

Zhang Yuanjun was speechless. What he did did indeed go beyond the boundaries of ordinary friends: "Oh, it was almost 10 years ago, and I still said it." Zhang Yuanjun was embarrassed to be said.

"I was only 18 years old at that time, you deserve to die." Liu Yifei laughed and scolded her husband.

Zhang Yuanjun said softly: "Isn't he already an adult?" Zhang Yuanjun lay down and prepared to sleep. "Hey, tell me the truth, have you liked me since you were in school?"

Zhang Yuanjun has answered this question many times, but today he decided to do something different.

Zhang Yuanjun hugged Liu Yifei to his chest: "Yes, yes, I've been attracted to you since school, so I decided to get you regardless of whether it's sneaky or abduction."

Liu Yifei smiled and said: "The words are nice, but they sound so awkward."

"It's very late, go to sleep." Zhang Yuanjun could hardly open his eyes.

Liu Yifei rolled off her husband, lay on one side, and said proudly: "I didn't like you at that time."

"Yeah." Now that she's married, let her enjoy her mouth.

"You liked me in school, so why don't you pursue me? You have to wait until graduation."

Zhang Yuanjun closed his eyes and murmured: "How closely did your mother watch you back then? You are still so famous, who dares to chase you?"

"You have low self-esteem." Liu Yifei became even more proud, "You..."

Before Liu Yifei could say anything, she heard Zhang Yuanjun gasping and fell asleep.

Liu Yifei also blamed him: "She slept like a dead pig and didn't know how to talk to my wife." She secretly punched Zhang Yuanjun again.

After getting the copyright of "Manchester by the Sea", Zhang Yuanjun's first job was to change the name of the movie to "Redemption" to create a contrast between wanting redemption but not being able to redeem it, just like "Transcendence".

Then I worked with my wife to translate the 140-page script into Chinese, which was quite time-consuming.

While translating, she was also reading through the script. Liu Yifei often sat at the table in a daze, immersed in the story.

"This story is so sad." Liu Yifei threw the pen on the table and read the script again today. The more she read, the more she felt that this story and the character Lee Chandler were so sad, especially Li's sentence "I can 't beat it"

But I have to admit that this story is really good and really suitable for Zhang Yuanjun.

Liu Yifei got up and went to get a drink of water. She looked around the room and saw that Zhang Yuanjun was no longer there.

"Hey, where are you? Aren't you translating the script?" Liu Yifei dialed her husband's phone number.

"I'm out for a late-night snack."

Liu Yifei was almost furious when she heard this. I spent so much time and effort translating the script for you, and then I took you and ran out for a late-night snack!
"I called you, but you said you wouldn't go. Have you forgotten?" Zhang Yuanjun explained, "You said you wanted to read the script again."

Liu Yifei seemed to have said this just now.

"Then when will you come back?"

"Almost. Do you want something to eat? I'll bring it back to you."

"No need to bring it with you. Don't drink. Don't get into my bed if you smell of alcohol."

"Huang Bo and the others were drinking. I said I was preparing for pregnancy and would not drink." Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile.

"That's pretty much it." Liu Yifei said with satisfaction.

I thought it would take at least two or three hours for them to disperse, but Zhang Yuanjun appeared in front of Liu Yifei an hour later and enthusiastically presented the roasted sweet potatoes he bought on the way back: "Eat some whole grains to promote digestion."

"Are you going to get rid of me for a roasted sweet potato that costs five yuan a piece?" Liu Yifei said, but Liu Yifei's hands had already begun to peel the sweet potato.

Zhang Yuanjun also took a bite and commented: "It will be more fragrant if it is cooked in a wood stove, but it will not taste good if it is roasted in a machine.

"You can eat, I'm going to take a shower."
