"Oggs, you mean now, are you going to formally invite me to perform? You've given up on Jason Clarke and are willing to use me?"

Renly's words made Oggs stunned for a moment, then his cheeks were slightly hot, and he said cautiously, "Jason Clark is a thing of the past. I originally thought to invite Colin Farrell to play, He should be a perfect fit."

Renly raised his eyebrows slightly, and history still developed along its original trajectory-if there was no meeting today, would Colin Farrell still play "The Lobster" smoothly?

"But now, I think you are David's most perfect performer." Oggs still maintained a consistent attitude and sincerely expressed all his true thoughts, "Of course, your age is still a shortcoming, and your appearance is too You're handsome, and you're so charismatic, it's not a perfect template for David."

The corners of Renly's mouth rose, and he could feel the disgust all over Oggs: from the bottom of his heart. Oggs just expressed his dissatisfaction with Renly's accusation, and now he has also expressed open disgust and rejection to Renly. Is this... revenge? Judging from Oggs' serious expression, it shouldn't be.

"However, your understanding and extension of the character is really excellent. I really can't think of any other actor who can give such a soul to the character." Oggs didn't notice the change in Renly's eyes at all, and was completely focused on My own thoughts, eloquently expounding my thoughts, "Maybe, we can modify some settings."

Ogus paused for a moment, "David can still get a divorce, just like you said, when he was eighteen, he found a like-minded partner through the introduction of his brother, the two got married, and then became a society step by step. part of it, and then ten years—or twelve years, it doesn't matter, the wife becomes an ex-wife, and David is single again, do you have any advice?"

"David firmly believes in love, which also means that he still maintains a warm place deep in his heart, just like those fans of subcultures, such as comics, black and white movies, such as Laika Camera, we can find a setting that suits your style, and then have David become an expert in that, and he indulges in these hobbies and gradually evolves into a contemporary otaku.”

Renly didn't hold back either, and spoke his thoughts in a generous way.

"As you said, when David was eighteen years old, through the introduction of his brother, he married his childhood sweetheart, and the two formed a contractual relationship, which also kept David away from those so-called exclusion and harm, allowing him to Continuing to maintain a pure heart, the ex-wife chose to leave for love, and the brother was transformed into an animal because he failed to find a contractual relationship, which further strengthened David's idea."

Here, Renly paused and added, "You can change the settings of your ex-wife and brother, but I believe that these two characters are not needed in the script, just a line or some objects to leave clues. That's it, if the audience likes it, they'll find out."

Oggs nodded in affirmation: he knew every little detail of the Stanley Kubrick movie arrangement, and never underestimate the madness of the fans.

"So, David can stay between twenty-eight and thirty, he can be attractive and still not find a partner, and if you want, I can bring a pair of black-rimmed glasses, although I know the frames It's a nerd stereotype, but sometimes it works for the audience, and that's fine." Renly said with a bit of witty self-joking—seemingly mocking his own "charismatic".

Oggs didn't catch Renly's humor, because he was serious, he shook his head, "I originally wished David had a beer belly, you know, that's typical of a middle-aged man, a little sloppy and a little introverted. , a little tummy, a little honest, maybe a little dirty, but not the seriously greasy kind."

"I can do it if you want," Renly said softly.

Oggs was stunned and stared at Renly, only to find that Renly was serious. Renly really didn't care about his image. He almost said, "Then why don't you give it a try", but When the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them hard.

Not because he was soft-hearted, not because he was accommodating to Renly, but because it wasn't necessary.

"No, I don't want it anymore." Ogus shook his head, "David's character setting has changed, and the original setting has lost its meaning. I understand what you mean now."

According to Oggs' original setting for middle-aged men, then, does he hope that David can find a partner but refuses to find a partner for "some" reason? Or do you want David to stay single without finding a partner?

With such a setting, David's behavior in the hotel can be explained - more likely, he can't find it; but David's behavior in the forest can't be explained, and even the first half of the setting is lost. Meaning, the whole theme has become mixed up, and the audience can't condense their own thinking.

Oggs now finally realizes the source of the problem: he just wants to present the absurd joy of the story, to create a kind of cold humor, and the image of a middle-aged man can undoubtedly create more absurdity, but such an idea is too much. Too random and too loose, but restricts the sublimation of the theme.

After getting Oggs' answer, Renly finally confirmed that Oggs was on the same track as him.

Regarding the role of middle-aged men, Renly is

Seriously, he doesn't think it's that hard, and he's willing to change his image for the role, if needed.

Ogus looked at Renly again, "I think otaku is a very good idea. It can present the image of an otaku fan who is addicted to old movies and can't extricate himself. The costumes of the whole character are mainly gray. The tone and style of the whole character settles. It's only when the glasses are taken off in the bathroom that the audience can see his face and feel his charm; and then create a contrast."

Afterwards, Oggs and Renly had some further discussions on the details of David's image. Those meticulous things were more supplements to the director and the prop team - for example, David's suitcase to the hotel; another example, David's personal utensils; for example, the books David read, and so on.

After everything was discussed, Ogus looked at his watch, two hours had passed in a blink of an eye, and he realized that time flies.

Oggs was about to leave, but Renly said that he was still relaxing in the coffee shop for a while, "Don't worry, I still have company." Renly raised the book that he had placed on the table and signaled lightly.

Oggs didn't say much, and nodded lightly in agreement, "Then...then I'll leave. After the preparation is complete, I will notify you by email. The fastest may be directly into the shooting next week, and the slowest is Maybe in three weeks, I need to make sure, Tessa has pre-booked the location, and we need to confirm the schedule."

Renly nodded in understanding.

In the end, Oggs decided to "write while shooting", mainly because the inspiration for the role of David came from Renly. Oggs believed that discussing with Renly during the shooting process could create more sparks. , although this adds uncertainty to the shooting, it also adds more possibilities.

Therefore, after returning home, Oggs planned to revise the first version of the script, but did not require it to be completed, and then directly entered the crew, creating and shooting at the same time.

Standing in the same place and thinking for a moment, after making sure that he had not missed anything, Ogus turned to leave, but only took a few steps and turned back. Renly hadn't even had time to pick up his book, so he couldn't help but raised his head towards him. Ogus cast an inquiring look.

"Renly..." Oggs hesitated, but he insisted on saying it, "Are you serious about the salary? It won't go up now, right?"

Does this mean pay?

Renly laughed dumbly, and he didn't argue too much, and gave a positive answer, "Yes."

Oggs is still not sure, "I mean... I mean, you can take on any work, but why are you willing to aggrieve yourself for 300,000 yuan? You even spent two hours convincing me today. , this... is it worth it?"

"As long as I like it, it's worth it," Renly said with a smile.

"...I didn't think you were such a person." Oggs couldn't hide his surprise, but he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, left a "sorry" and left in a hurry.

Not this kind of person, what kind of person should it be?

The kind of person who does everything for money, for fame? The kind of person who does not sacrifice means for profit and power? Or the kind of person who would destroy the careers of others for his own sake?

Watching the back of Oggs leaving, although Renly knew that Oggs didn't do it on purpose, this was the prejudice of the entire industry, and he would not be hurt; but he was still a little disappointed and helpless, and a little lonely and lonely.

The drizzle outside the window was still falling, and there was a trivial sound in my ears, but it made the whole world quiet.

Renly hugged his books, a cup of coffee was in front of his eyes, and he quietly looked at the world outside the window, which was like ink and wash, and let the mood settle down little by little; while on the coffee table, placed With a pen and a coaster, a phrase is written on the back of the coaster.

"I am very awake, the world is falling apart, I do my best to maintain a fearless heart, there is still a long way to fall to the bottom of the valley, just close my eyes, I will have nothing. So, I am in the cold wind, I insist I go all the way until I reach the-other-side, or nothing is accomplished; when others return home, I am still on the road until I get to the other-side, or nothing is accomplished."

The damp and cold water vapor lingered between the gray and the ink, delineating the desolation and silence leading to the other side of the world.
