Chapter 234: Portland's Public Lover
"So many people waiting for him again! Fuck! How long is he going to stay in that damn car. Is Michelle combing his hair one by one? Fuck, fuck!"
Kristen Stewart felt she had never hated someone so much, and couldn't help but kick an empty soda can beside her hard.
That Coca-Cola can rolled far away, rolling to the feet of a young girl who was chatting with her companion.
The girl looked down, looked back toward this side, immediately waved at this side with a surprised look, and her two companions also looked over together.
Seeing Kristen and their group of actors, they all cheered excitedly.
A beautiful girl with blonde hair and long legs wearing a miniskirt pointed to this side and said to her companion: "Look, that person, I saw him in *Harry Potter*."
The red-haired girl next to her who had developed very well suddenly screamed: "Wow, it's Cedric Diggory from *Harry Potter*!"
The girl before also jumped up: "Yes, that's him, wow, he's so handsome in person."
The blonde girl looked at Luo Bote Pattinson carefully and muttered: "Look at his figure, so hot, I think he's sexier than Julian Sands."
The big-breasted red-haired girl also licked her lips and said: "I like his perky butt, I really want to know what it feels like when it shakes."
When she said this, several girls, along with another pile of girls next to them who heard it, all laughed.
This is Kalama High School in Portland, and it is currently the spring break time in the United States, and the *Twilight* crew rented the campus to use as a real-life shooting location.
At the same time, through the school, they invited over thirty volunteers, all high school students studying at Kalama High School, to act as background boards in the movie.
Because Kalama High School's spring break is only one week long.
So according to the shooting plan, the crew will seize the time and shoot all the school scenes in the first few days of filming.
The girls' playful words were sent to Kristen Stewart's ears with the wind, and she couldn't help but cast an admiring look at Luo Bote Pattinson beside her: "Luo Bote, they all recognize you."
Luo Bote Pattinson smiled faintly and said nonchalantly: "It has nothing to do with me, that's all *Harry Potter*'s credit. I only appeared in *Harry Potter* for a few tens of minutes, but as a result, wherever I go in the world, fans will recognize me."
"Sigh, sometimes it's annoying. Going to the street to buy a cup of coffee will get me asked for an autograph. Do you know? This makes me feel like I have no freedom."
Anna Kendrick, who played Kristen's best friend in the play, said: "Luo Bote, if I could be like you one day, I would definitely be excited to send text messages to every man I know, telling them that I'm not who I used to be."
The blonde handsome guy, Mike Welch, who played a member of the Cullen family, said: "Remember to send me one too, so I know I don't have to hope for a chance to climb into your bed anymore."
Anna rolled her eyes, and another Cullen actor, Ashley Greene, asked curiously: "Luo Bote, what does it feel like to act in *Harry Potter*?"
Luo Bote Pattinson shrugged: "A very beautiful memory, whether it's Daniel or Emma, we all get along very well. Although they are already world stars, they still have no airs."
Anna Kendrick interrupted: "Unlike our Joker, right?"
"Hahaha." "Haha." "Hahahaha."
The others gathered together all laughed in unison.
Kristen Stewart said while laughing: "I really want to know what he will look like when he's made up, that we need to wait for him for so long."
"Luo Bote, I think Catherine will also get tired of him one day, kick him out of the crew, let you re-play Edward, and let everything return to the right track."
Luo Bote Pattinson put his hands in his pockets and said faintly: "Kristen, thank you for your kindness, I just want to film my movie now and don't think about so much. However, I do think that with his appearance, playing a vampire is not very suitable."
"Yes, that's right." Anna echoed, "I think vampires should be sexier, have more fatal attraction, and even be a bit androgynous."
Kristen Stewart nodded: "Indeed. In fact, I don't think he's that handsome either. What do you guys think?"
"Of course." Anna nodded affirmatively.
Ashley Greene smiled faintly: "At least he wouldn't be my type."
Luo Bote Pattinson revealed a reserved smile, but in his heart he was thinking: So what if he's an Oscar winner? When everyone isolates you, you won't be able to stay yourself. Hehe, just wait and see.
While a few people were chatting, the crew's staff had already called the high school students who came to be extras together.
Catherine held a megaphone and was saying to the group of students gathered in front of her in the square at the school gate: "... Boys and girls, later our male and female leads will walk out of that car together. I hope the feeling you have looking at them is like seeing the school's football team captain and cheerleader captain dating publicly."
A group of boys and girls burst into laughter, and someone said loudly: "If James and Carol date publicly, I swear, that must be the day a comet hits the earth."
The laughter became even louder, and a female voice followed: "That's right, for me to date James, unless it's the end of the world." The person who spoke was the tall blonde girl from before, only to see her sneering, her emerald green eyes staring fiercely at the boy who had just spoken.
The other party immediately shrank his head and disappeared into the crowd.
Catherine said to the megaphone: "Alright, children, listen to me. Later our staff will take you to your respective positions. After filming starts, you act like you're going to school normally, chatting and laughing. However, when they come out of the car, remember to look at them, understand?"
"OK." "Understand." "No problem."
Everyone answered.
A boy suddenly asked: "The female lead is that beautiful girl with black hair over there, right?"
"Yes, that's right." Catherine nodded.
A girl asked: "Who is the male lead?"
Another girl continued: "Is it Luo Bote Pattinson?"
"Should be him."
"Who else besides him, he's so handsome."
Catherine really couldn't do anything about these talkative and active high school students. This reminded her of her eldest daughter, who was also this age and made her have a headache every day with her rebellion.
Catherine cheered up and said loudly to the megaphone: "No, it's not Luo Bote. You'll know later, our on-site director will tell you, okay, children, when the time comes you..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw that at the other end of the playground, the door of their crew's makeup car opened, and a man wearing a short windbreaker walked down.
She immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Alright, our male lead is here, you all look, recognize him clearly. Let's say first, you are not allowed to..."
Not allowed to what, Catherine didn't finish.
Because when these dozens of naughty and active high school students, along with the twenty-something crew staff, including Kristen, Luo Bote, and other actors on the scene, all turned their heads to look over there, her eyes were also staring fixedly.
In fact, to say who was the most anxious and curious in the whole scene, it was actually her.
She is the director!
As a director, before filming starts, she hasn't even seen the male lead's look in the play; is this appropriate!
This kind of situation would only happen in their kind of independent films.
So, Catherine was particularly concerned about what Chen Nuo would look like after makeup, and whether there would be any need for adjustments after the first makeup.
So she looked very carefully, and when Chen Nuo's figure appeared in her eyes from far to near, she was also stunned and lost her language.
The square at the gate of Kalama High School is actually not big; it is a rectangle.
The longest place is about 30-something meters, and the short one is only 10-something meters. After parking two rows of cars, there is not much space in the middle.
Chen Nuo walked on this aisle in the middle, feeling like he was walking a runway show.
He was wearing the costume provided by the crew, a gray woolen windbreaker. When he moved, he felt the sleeves were slightly tight; it should be that the unremitting exercise during this period had an effect.
Michelle, that little Black girl, was laughing behind his back, not knowing what she was laughing at.
It was still a bit cold in Portland in April, and the wind blew into his shirt collar, drilling inside.
He had always been a bit afraid of the cold, so he shrank his body and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Holy shit!"
There were two boys in front of Chen Nuo on the left, one of whom suddenly looked at him and cursed.
Chen Nuo frowned, not sure if the other party was provoking him, but when he looked over, the boy with a face full of acne suddenly showed a smile: "Hey, brother, you are really fucking cool, my name is James, can we get to know each other?"
Chen Nuo was a bit dissatisfied with the other party's rudeness, and after his eyes slid across his face faintly, he ignored him and continued to walk forward without looking sideways.
Chen Nuo knew that *Twilight* had no money for post-production special effects, so he found a high school to do real-life shooting.
He came too early before, and there weren't so many people. Men and women, each one tall and big, completely different from domestic high school students.
Makeup, long hair, if placed in the country, it is estimated that none could enter the school gate. It was almost consistent with the American high school students in his impression.
But they looked very obedient, and wouldn't scream like ordinary American students when they saw a star they recognized.
It seems the teaching quality of this middle school is really good.
It reminded him of his first year of high school, when his classmates in that key high school were also like this. During the flag-raising ceremony on Monday, they stood still and looked at the principal, so quiet that there was only the sound of wind and the principal's earnest teachings in the whole playground.
I really want him to shut up.
Thinking of this, a faint smile hung on the corner of Chen Nuo's mouth.
The moment he smiled, Kristen Stewart not far away swallowed her saliva, and at the same time heard Anna Kendrick and Ashley Greene doing the same.
Anna Kendrick made a series of unintelligible mutters in her mouth, sounding like a lot of dirty words.
Kristen Stewart knew what she was cursing.
If she wasn't considering Luo Luo Bote feelings, according to her personality, she would have long ago been unable to resist cursing out loud.
She knew this Chinese man was very handsome, but she didn't expect... he could be fucking this handsome!
After that Oscar ceremony that made him famous among American women, the *Vogue* magazine Kristen Stewart subscribed to published a vote by an internal editor, selecting the most handsome man on the Oscar night, and this guy ranked first, even Brad Pitt was behind him.
Although there were 100% emotional points from those female editors, it can also be seen that this Asian boy truly conquered the aesthetics of many American women.
Kristen Stewart also heard many people say that this guy would be a strong candidate for the world's sexiest face in *People* magazine at the end of this year.
She actually scoffed at this before.
Because of her childhood experience, she had always held prejudices against Asians.
Just like now, she didn't want to admit that this man, who appeared for 20 seconds and made everyone, regardless of gender, pay attention, was because of how beautiful he was.
Kristen felt that if it weren't for the white powder Chen Nuo applied on his face, adding a strange morbid beauty to him,
How could he be charming to this extent?
Also, if it weren't for Michelle taking care of his eyes, drawing black vampire eyeliner on him,
Making his originally slightly curled eyelashes have more amplitude,
Making his eyes, which were already deep, look like a clear deep pool,
Plus that pair of golden contact lenses, how could her heart beat faster.
And Kristen Stewart absolutely believed that this was not her responsibility.
Because it is impossible for any woman to remain cold in front of such a pair of eyes.
Especially when his gaze looked over, under the spring sunshine, those eyes looked even more golden, making her think of the wheat fields in autumn,
And also reminded her of a Greek mythology book she read when she was a child, a certain deity in an illustration.
His eyes were golden and brilliant, as if the glory of the sun.
Fortunately, under his pale face, those blood-red lips were completely different from Apollo.
However, Ashley Greene's soft murmur entered Kristen's ears, making her feel as if it expressed her own heart.
"If there really is such an eerie vampire in the world, then dying under his blood-red lips must be the sexiest way to die in the world."
Kristen Stewart felt Ashley was worthy of being a high-achieving student with a university degree.
She couldn't think of another word that could more appropriately describe the feeling this man gave people now:
Eerie.
Pale face, golden eyes, blood-red lips. Plus his outline that looked like it was chiseled by a knife.
If this isn't an eerie blood clan walking out of everyone's dreams, what could it be?
He just walked from illusion to reality with such light steps.
Walked in front of that group of Kalama High School students.
Chen Nuo noticed that directly in front, a blonde girl with long legs was looking at him without moving, just like those Barbie dolls he saw on the Mattel production line.
It's just that she was a bit dull, her eyes were straight.
He couldn't help but smile.
This smile was like some kind of switch, making this group of high school students suddenly noisy,
"Fuck, what kind of vampire is this? Is the movie they are filming not a horror movie?"
"Holy shit, I swear, after this movie comes out, I will definitely go watch it."
"Too cool, my god, what kind of contact lenses are those? I also want to get a pair."
"You wearing this thing, I feel like I'm going to vomit. I say, why does he look a bit familiar."
"I also think so, who on earth is this guy?"
Strangely, most of those who spoke were boys, while the girls didn't seem to have the interest to discuss. For example, the cheerleader and her few friends didn't speak, just stared at him without blinking.
Chen Nuo didn't care either. He didn't know that in order to keep it secret, the crew hadn't told these high school students the truth about all the plots and actors, and adopted an attitude of hiding as much as possible.
He thought they recognized him, and he had long been accustomed to these performances.
Chen Nuo walked to Catherine and asked: "Director, what do you think of my makeup now?"
Catherine only then came back to her senses and glanced at Michelle, who had been following Chen Nuo with an excited face.
She was silent for a while, then exhaled a long breath and said: "I think... nothing. Chen, seize the time, let's start filming now."
When Catherine said to start filming, Chen Nuo was a bit confused.
He was still waiting for Catherine to say no, so he could go complain about the little Black girl.
Unexpectedly, it started filming just like that?
When Kristen Stewart sat in the car with Chen Nuo, although she kept telling herself in her heart to remember, remember, she was currently dating Luo Bote.
But there was no way, her heart was still beating terrifyingly fast.
She was even a bit worried that in this small space, the sound of her heartbeat would be heard by the other party.
How embarrassing!
How could she be like this?
Fuck, calm down, Kristen, cool it, OK? She repeated to herself again and again.
This scene was actually very simple for Chen Nuo.
It was just that the male and female leads in the play had expressed their affection, just became a pair of boyfriend and girlfriend, so they went to school together by car, and then came out of the car, receiving onlookers and exclamations from everyone in the school.
Of course, he didn't know that his real-life boyfriend in the play, Mr. Luo Bote, was one of the onlookers.
Therefore, he still followed his consistent performance style of pursuing truth.
After the on-site director shouted "Action."
He wore a pair of sunglasses, got off the driver's seat, and met Kristen Stewart at the front of the car.
Afterwards, his hand was placed on the other party's water-snake waist, and he even took the opportunity to kiss Kristen on her fair and smooth face.
Luo Bote Pattinson, as one of the onlookers, listening to the genuine screams of those dragon-set high school students beside him, didn't know what was going on, but suddenly felt an inexplicable irritability in his heart.
