One Thousand Five Hundred and Eighty-One Silent Practice
"If you don't want to come over, you can stay in Los Angeles..."
"...you know I'm not here for you, and if it wasn't for Renly, I wouldn't want to travel with you!"
"Then you can come by yourself. I'm sure Renly will be able to take care of you. Why do you want to come with me? If you want your own private space, I can. I have no problem. I can totally agree!"
"Are you sure? Then who was asking about my friend's identity just now? I told you, they are just ordinary friends!"
"Why can't you tell me if you are an ordinary friend? I'm just trying to understand your life, nothing else..."
"The problem is, I don't want to tell you about my life! God! If I told you there was a boy in that group of friends, you wouldn't be sitting here."
"What! Boy? Who? What name! How old? What is he doing? What the hell is going on with him?"
"Oh! God!"
"Meadow! I'm not kidding, I'm serious. You should know that fifteen-year-old boys are full of 'sex', and only this one thing, they are all bastards!"
"Like you?"
"Yeah, just like me! They can't be trusted! You're going to the prom, you're going to the homecoming prom! All right! But he has to come to me in person! Meadow! Meadow! I'm serious! Yes, don't turn your head and look out the window! Even your mother agrees with me!"
“啊啊啊!所以我才不想要告诉你和妈妈,你们肯定会大惊小怪!但蓝礼就不会!”
"I...Meadow, I'm just trying to protect you!"
"Please do not!"
"……"silence.
"……"silence.
The conflict that erupted and extinguished in an instant ended without a hitch. The inside of the carriage fell into silence again, and the deadly silence began to slowly spread; When it spreads out, the big and small worlds inside and outside the car blend together wonderfully.
The vast and blue icefield stretches endlessly towards the far end of the horizon,
The earth and the sky seem to be integrated in this way. The huge world seems to be magnified a hundred times and a thousand times, and the human beings in it are getting smaller and smaller. The black vehicle is like a beetle. Even the roar of the engine disappeared in the sound of hunting wind.
Light blue, mint blue, peacock blue, lake blue, dark blue, azure blue, navy blue... The pure and rich blue penetrates into the boundless black little by little, without any variegated translucent but the slightest It does not appear monotonous and boring, just like the pigments smudged in the crystal clear spring water, quiet and magnificent, breathtakingly beautiful, and then quietly lost in it.
The clumps of ice-blue 10,000-year-old ice are like a crown of thorns, blooming proudly in the wild on the natural canvas, and the momentary youth freezes into eternity; the carpet-like green moss runs through it densely, growing stubbornly and wantonly He added a touch of vitality that does not belong to winter in the interlaced world of blue and black. It is cold and awe-inspiring, and the black and white picture suddenly becomes rich and colorful.
There are no trees, no houses, and no traces of people. It is so silent that only his heartbeat is left. The desolate and ethereal aura dances at his fingertips, and he seems to have left the earth and entered another world unknowingly. Maybe it's the space universe, maybe it's a paradise, maybe it's a parallel world... but there is no tension and fear in the mood, just a calm and calm.
The car radio is playing Renly's "Don Quixote" album, and the guitar strings of "Was-There-Nothing" are so ethereal and moving that they are immersed in the moment of silence. , as if escaping the noise and troubles of the world, temporarily disappearing in a different-dimensional space, quietly enjoying the time of your own, so beautiful that people roam in it.
The scenery of Iceland is always so wonderful and magnificent, and the layered shocks always bring the baptism of the soul inadvertently; but at this time, no one in the carriage cared about the majesty outside the window, and the world seemed to be limited to the size of a palm. In a square inch, everything else becomes irrelevant.
Neither Paul Walker nor Meadow Ryan had the heart to appreciate the view, immersed in their own thoughts and unable to extricate themselves.
How the quarrel started, both Paul and Meadow have forgotten.
The trip from Los Angeles to Reykjavik was no problem, Meadows finally came home, Paul and Meadows tried to talk once, because it was the first time, both seemed cautious and overwhelmed, the content of the conversation There aren't too many surprises, and they need to open up and try again, but at least it's a start, which is very important.
But after arriving at Reykjavik Airport, because of a small problem, then things got out of hand. They seemed to have no way of coexisting peacefully at all. When facing friends and facing each other, it was very different. The ugliest and most ferocious side of himself is revealed. The two even forgot what the beginning of the quarrel was.
Teenagers in the rebellious period always seem to be like this, showing their thorns against the world, against society, against their family members and against themselves, even if they hurt themselves, they don’t know how to stop; Our parents also seem unable to get rid of the shackles, always restraining their children in their own way.
Paul's hands holding the steering wheel tightened slightly. He was giving in, he was tolerant, he was understanding, but the way of getting along didn't seem to have changed much. After going around, he returned to the original point again. What is going on? What should he do?
Mei Duo turned her head and looked out the window, biting her lower lip heavily, regretting her impulsiveness and recklessness, like a powder keg, but she didn't know how to communicate, and even the words of apology stuck in her throat. If he didn't come out, he simply chose to remain silent.
The ethereal and quiet natural scenery made the silence in the carriage seem tolerable. After all, the two of them didn't speak, and they walked along the road around the island quietly.
Iceland is the country with the smallest population density in the entire European continent. Only 330,000 people live on 100,000 square kilometers of land. After Vikings, Celts and Scandinavians settled here , created his own home among the mountains and rivers in this unreal place.
This is a primitive and retro land without railways. More than two-thirds of the residents gather in the capital Reykjavik, which makes the journey after leaving the capital a journey of exploration and adventure, along the No. 1 roundabout. By self-driving on the road, you can freely travel through the rolling primitive world.
The car moving forward in the silence is like a ship sailing in the middle of the night. The sound of riding the wind and waves has disappeared in the night. It is quiet and peaceful, and all the irritability and anger have calmed down unconsciously. Paul is like this, Meadow The same is true, the two father and daughter even thought at the same time in their minds: Could this be Renly's original intention?
But the two still didn't speak. Maybe it's to avoid arguing again, maybe it's because I don't know what to say, maybe it's just to enjoy a moment of tranquility... So we arrived at our destination in silence.
In the distance, the busy and noisy crew came into sight.
Compared with the inaccessible people on the road, no people or cars can be seen for 30 minutes. The crew in front of you is like a big party. The bustling figures reawaken the lively and busy, lonely atmosphere of the civilized society. Like a tide, it gurgled away.
Under the guidance of the staff, Paul parked the car in the temporary parking lot of the crew.
Immediately afterwards, Nathan came over in person and explained to Paul and Meadow that Renly was in the process of filming at this time, and it would take some time; because this scene was a long-range and panoramic shot, it would not be possible to meet Lanly in a short period of time. If they'd like to go to the set, that's fine, but if they get tired, they can get into Renly's van for a rest adjustment.
Apparently, Renly had taken everything into consideration.
After all, Meadows chose to go to the set because of curiosity; Paul didn't say much, nodded in agreement, and the two father and daughter walked silently towards the set.
Sure enough, as Nathan said, it's all about the distance - Christopher Nolan is capturing a panoramic view from the sky, and at the same time, the actor needs to appear in the camera. For the onlookers, the actor can't be seen at all. , only two figures the size of matchsticks can be seen moving at the far end, and the feeling of arrogance and grandeur is blowing towards the face.
Paul and Meadows just stood there quietly.
For Paul, the atmosphere of the crew was all too familiar, and there was no discomfort at all; for Meadow, everything was new, and it was inevitable to look up and down.
In a blink of an eye, an hour passed like this. The two of them never talked, but they didn't feel anything unusual, as if they were doing silent practice, and then they could see Ren Li, who had finished shooting, walking towards him, wearing a uniform. Wearing a bulky spacesuit, staggering slightly, and sweating profusely, the long-term shooting really consumed a lot of physical strength and energy.
From a distance, Renly saw Paul and Meadow in the crowd. He waved to say hello, and then walked towards him with clumsy steps, with a bright smile on his face, it could be seen that he seemed to be in a good mood. , "You finally arrived, how is it, is the journey going smoothly? It's still a long way to drive from Reykjavik, why don't you just rest at the hotel?"
As the "host", Renly greeted him warmly, and he had never been so happy to see a friend come to visit.
