The Greatest Showman

578 Grassroots Life

Remember in one second [End of the God Station] Mobile phone user input address: m.xinwanben.com

New York in the middle of the night is a different scene, the old subway cars are clanging, graffiti, dirty stains, worn seats, the occasional exposed circuit and a momentary no light. Lighting lights travel through time and space for hundreds of years, walking in this dark and long tunnel, depositing the power of time and recording the history that people do not understand.

Leaving the bustling and noisy of Manhattan, the subway carrying most of the people in the carriages headed for another world, from heaven to hell, from prosperity to decadence, the bizarre scenes were reflected on the numb and sluggish faces. It seems that the movie "Transcendence" looks calm on the surface, but deep down inside, it has been vicissitudes of life. Looking at the hazy light that occasionally leaked in outside the window, Renly had the illusion of an epic blockbuster.

During this time, instead of living in his lower/downtown apartment, Renly lived in a rental house in the Bronx, which was just a block away from Henry's rental house in the movie, and could walk every day. At work, all the people living around are prostitutes/women, addicts/gentlemen, alcoholics and homeless people, like a chaotic bottomless abyss, but it is very real.

Renly wanted to stay in the acting state, but also wanted to get a further feel for everyday life in the Bronx and really integrate himself into the whole story.

Sitting on the subway is quite an interesting thing, and occasionally you can hear people talking about "Fast \u0026 Furious 5", of course, not all good things, some people yell at them, and some people enjoy it. But they never knew that the person they were talking about was sitting on the subway, just one step away from them.

For Renly, away from the camera lens, away from the screen, then he is an ordinary person, an ordinary young man, he does not think he is anything special. Occasionally go to the bar with friends for a drink, then discuss your favorite and hate movies with strangers, think about what to do on your next vacation, or sleep in until you wake up naturally. At least the last time he confirmed, he didn't have superpowers, and it was useless to wear underwear.

At the station, Renly walked down quickly and left the subway station with the crowd. The cold wind blowing outside made him shiver, and the alcohol was a little bit on his head. Originally said a bottle of beer, but in the end it was three bottles of beer and a glass of whiskey, Renly knew this was not the original plan, but he did not regret it.

The brain is actually very awake, but when the footsteps are a little light, one deep and one shallow walked towards his temporary apartment. There are quite a few homeless people on this street, but Renly is already familiar with the road, and his simple and desolate appearance makes people not interested in robbery, and he returned to the apartment without incident.

It is said to be an apartment, but it is actually a single room, except for a mattress and a table, there is nothing left. Even if someone broke in, they couldn't find anything to steal. So, seeing the light under the crack of the door, Ren Li didn't care, he didn't take out the key, he just tried to twist the door handle, and sure enough, the thin wooden door was pushed open.

Pushing the door open, the narrow room was clear at a glance, and then I saw three people curled up and sitting on the mattress. The crowded posture looked like the victims trapped in the ice cave in winter, and they had to hug each other to keep warm. The fact is that the three of them were sweating profusely at this time, and they looked embarrassed and embarrassed.

Renly was immediately amused, and he chuckled softly, "What's the matter with the three of you? Don't I remember there was a chair?" One person sat on the chair and two sat on the mattress, so he didn't know it was so crowded. "And the electric fan, why not turn it on?"

Naturally, there is no air-conditioning in this rental house. Although it is already August, the heat is still not cool. The temperature outside at night drops sharply, but it is inevitable that there is still some stuffiness inside. The three of them were crowded into a ball, naturally sweating profusely, as if they had just been fished out of the water.

Raising his head and looking at Renly who was completely refreshed, Roy Lockley rolled his eyes angrily; Andy Rogers was good-natured, he took out his handkerchief and kept wiping the sweat from his forehead; finally Nathan- Press explained, "The fan is broken and the chair is nowhere to be found."

The two dry sentences were explained clearly, but Renly laughed even more joyfully when he saw the plight of the three.

Staggeringly walked to the window, pulled the curtains, opened the window, "You can sit on the table, you can sit on the ground with the script cushioned, you can also open the window to breathe, if not, there is still beer in the refrigerator. , and ice cubes, you look like you are in a sauna."

"Renly, you'd better go back to the lower/city area." It was Andy who spoke, persuading earnestly, "Anyway, the filming of the movie is almost over, I asked Tony, and it will take at most two weeks. It’s time to finish. It doesn’t make much sense to stay here, it’s not convenient or safe to live here.”

Roy tugged the button of his shirt and said straightly, "I've persuaded him several times, but he doesn't listen. I thought you should know him better than I do."

When I opened the refrigerator, the beer had been drank, and even the ice had been used up. Obviously, without the help of a certain friend, Renly completely forgot about going to the supermarket to restock; then he went into the bathroom and found He removed the round stool he had forgotten here before, and moved it out. Looking at Nathan's stunned expression, Renly shushes, "Don't ask what happened." Finally, he dug through the cupboard to find a few newspapers and The magazine was thrown on the ground next to the mattress, indicating that they could spread it out and sit on the floor.

"I heard gunshots and swearing outside just now; there seems to be an accident in the next room, too.

Jojo could hear the sound of fighting. Nathan opened his mouth to answer Renly's doubts - why the three of them would rather curl up in a ball and sweat profusely than open the window, "I haven't heard the siren for a long time, you said, should we call the police? ? "

"The gunshots?" Renly thought about it. "Is it in bursts, with a short interval in between, but the time is not constant; and then the swearing is the level of black swearing?" Nathan nodded affirmatively. Renly suddenly realized, and waved his hand, "The gangsters on the street next door are playing beer cans. Irregularly, sometimes every night for several days in a row; sometimes there is no movement for three or four days. It seems, What's going on tonight?"

Renly's understatement caused the three people in front of him to be stunned for a moment, but he was undecided, "As for the next door, that's a queen of training from the character 's', who has a job every night, and used to fight with me before. Greetings." After a pause, Renly recalled seriously, "I remember mentioning it to you before, it's a funny thing."

Nathan opened his mouth wide, laughing more ugly than crying, and shook his head to show his innocence.

"Oh. That's what I forgot to say." Renly shook his head nonchalantly, then looked at the three people who were sweating profusely in front of him, "Need a pot of coffee for you?"

Andy and Roy looked at each other, but saw similar emotions in each other's eyes: stunned, helpless, ridiculous, and smiling.

Before that, the two had been on the phone many times, and it wasn't that they didn't know each other at all, but today was the first official meeting between Renly's agent and manager, and it was still a little strange after all. However, at this moment, the two seem to be sympathetic to each other and have found a common language.

In fact, they all persuaded Renly that living here is too dangerous, almost scary, but Renly insisted; they also hoped that Nathan and Renly could live together, at least next door, They can take care of each other, but Renly firmly refuses, saying that he must maintain the same living conditions as Henry.

Both Andy and Roy can be said to be veteran social figures who have experienced many battles, and they also have a clear understanding of the dark side of society. But even Roy, his living conditions are not good, and the environment in the neighborhood is not so bad, let alone Andy. Suddenly entering such a dangerous and terrifying neighborhood, the instinct/ability to survive will inevitably prevail.

Renly was startled as he remembered the first night he was a homeless man. It's no surprise that the three of them responded.

Seeing that Ren Li was busy with everything, and finally sat on the floor on the newspaper spread out beside the mattress, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Ren Li's footsteps were a little unsteady, but his expression was very calm.

Roy, who was sitting on the round stool, was finally able to stretch out the chubby Andy on the mattress, and exchanged glances again, and his eyes flashed a little puzzled:

The usual Renly has always been elegant and calm, and he acts in a grand manner. Even fans call him "Young Master" affectionately, not to mention their close partners. They all guessed that even if Renly was not from a wealthy family, at least he had received a good higher education, maybe even a scholarly family.

So, why did the elegant Renly adapt to the grass-roots life so calmly? Not even the slightest bit of discomfort? Is it really too deep into the play? However, during the filming of the movie "Transcendence", Renly showed no signs of such madness at all. How can this be explained?

One is the agent, the other is the manager, and in a way, these are the two people Renly trusts the most in Hollywood. But both of them felt that there seemed to be more and more unsolved mysteries hidden in Renly, and they couldn't be sure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. It should be... a good thing, right?

Looking at his watch, Renly took the initiative to break the silence in the room, "What's the matter, you made a special trip here? I'm going to rest in thirty minutes."

"Have you been drinking tonight? Do you need to sober up?" Roy could see that Renly was in a slightly different state tonight.

Renly showed a big smile and waved his hand nonchalantly, "That's good, it doesn't even count as a little drunk." It's actually good to enjoy this moment of drunkenness occasionally, like a fish jumping out of the water. While Renly still misses the open air more, he starts to miss surfing.
