Little Scarlett looked Lin Chen up and down. His skin was white, tender and delicate.
Although she had never seen the white clothes on his body, she thought they were of oriental style and looked very nice.
Moreover, it is so charming to give her a look that looks like the Holy Son coming out of the Bible.
No, no, I was looking to see if Chen was suffering.
If you look carefully, it doesn't look like he's suffering.
This made little Scarlett feel relieved. It seemed that the big leader was a good person and did not make the little priest suffer.
Then, she glanced at the house behind Lin Chen and asked curiously and expectantly:"So are you moving next door now? Will we be neighbors from now on?""
"I'm just staying here temporarily"
"Borrowing? So why did you come to the United States?"
"missionary"
"Preach? cool! Chen, you are so cool! Traveling thousands of miles from the East to the United States, I feel that your experience can be made into a movie!"
As soon as she heard that Lin Chen was here to preach, various thoughts immediately appeared in little Scarlett's mind.Missionary movies.
Her mother is a Jewish film producer in Hollywood. Little Scarlett is also educated in the family, so she has watched many movies since she was a child. At the same time, she also yearns to be a big star.
"Well……"
Make a movie?
Maybe someone will take pictures in the future.
Lin Chen thought noncommittally
"Dust, does your church also believe in the Lord?"
"No, we believe in Buddha!"
"Buddha?"
"Yes, the Buddha is not the Lord, and the Lord is not the Buddha. The Buddha can be a god, or any living being, and it can also be you or me. As long as you realize the so-called equality of all living beings, you can become a Buddha."
Mahayana Buddhism emphasizes that everyone can become a Buddha.
Lin Chen tried his best to use plain and easy-to-understand language to describe to little Scarlett the truth that everyone can become a Buddha.
But unfortunately, little Scarlett's thoughts and experiences are , could not understand this sentence.
In her opinion, the Lord is the only one. We are all the Lord’s lambs and need the shepherd to lead them.
"How can a person become the Lord! This is impossible, the Lord is the only one."
Little Scarlett shook her head.
Hearing this, Lin Chen frowned. He didn't expect Scarlett, a little lolita, to be so stubborn. It seems that the Jewish guys in Hollywood 21 are probably more difficult to deal with.
By the way, it looks like Scarlett is half Jewish.
"Scarlett, the Lord is the only one, but I am not.
Lin Chen smiled and continued:"Your Lord is the only one. Our Buddha advocates that everyone can become a Buddha. You can understand Buddha as a kind of enlightenment and a kind of thought, just like your Western history." Those great philosophers, do you know Archimedes?"
"Give me a fulcrum and I can lift the entire earth?"
"Yes, that's him. He is a person who has an epiphany. He has thoughts that ordinary people do not have, and he has the ability to understand the world that ordinary people do not have. The Buddha I am talking about is someone who has perfected his merit and wisdom."
Based on the understanding of traditional Buddhist characters, all sentient beings may become Buddhas after practicing for three countless kalpas.
A Buddha is a person who has escaped from reincarnation and has a thorough understanding of the universe and life.
A person who is truly enlightened is also known as the Buddha. A wise person or a person of perfect consciousness.
In other words, Buddha does not mean becoming the Buddha in mythology.
In Buddhist scriptures, Buddha is a person of greatness, compassion and power.
And most importantly, the difference between Buddhism and other religions : Buddha is not omnipotent. Buddha cannot grant us liberation. He can only teach us. We still have to rely on our own efforts to obtain liberation.
Buddha cannot make us go to heaven or sentence us to hell.
Therefore, Lin Chen and little Scarlett Explain that Buddha is a wise man and a person with perfect practice, which is in line with the theory of Buddhist scriptures and will not arouse the other party's objection.
As expected, as Lin Chen explained, little Scarlett's face softened a lot, but it did not mean that she had much The pious new master was mainly because she was still young and couldn't turn her head around such things.
But after learning that the Buddha was a smart and wise man, she instantly understood why this little Eastern priest Chen said that everyone can Becoming a Buddha turns out to advocate that everyone should learn knowledge and be filled with wisdom.
"So this is ah! Little
Scarlett looked like she suddenly understood, and then looked expectantly at the little priest who made her feel good:"Chen, do you think I can become a Buddha?""
"why not?"
"But I didn’t study well, and my classmates all laughed at me for doing so poorly in my homework."
"If you are not good at studying, study hard; if you are not good at homework, study hard. Moreover, Buddha does not mean that people who study well can become one. It requires sudden enlightenment."
"An epiphany?"
"Suddenly, it is the idea that suddenly flashes in your mind; when you are struggling to find the answer, you look out the window at the beautiful scenery and your thinking suddenly becomes enlightened; when you are walking on the road, Seeing a poor beggar, I subconsciously donated one dollar out of kindness.……"
Although little Scarlett heard what Lin Chen said in confusion and had no idea what Lin Chen meant, just looking at the other party's cute appearance was enough to make little Scarlett feel that life was so beautiful.
It's a pity that this young pastor didn't move next door, but just stayed here temporarily. I don't know if I can see him again in the future.
When she thought about not being able to see Lin Chen, little Scarlett felt like she had lost her most beloved rag doll, and she burst into tears all of a sudden.
"Woo woo woo~~~"
This cry made Lin Chen dumbfounded, how could he cry so well.
Could it be that what he said made her think of something sad?
You shouldn't
"Scarlett!"
Suddenly, a graceful young woman walked out of the house opposite.
She was Scarlett's mother Melanie.
Melanie saw her daughter crying by the fence. There seemed to be another person opposite, and she thought someone was bullying her daughter..
She walked over with a frown. When she saw that the person next door was just a child, she couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. A quarrel between children was nothing. Melanie came to her daughter, touched her hair, and said with concern:"Scarlett ,What's going on here?"
Little Scarlett turned around and hugged her mother directly, choking and crying and said:"Oh, Mommy, I don't want the little pastor to leave!"
"ah?"Melanie was stunned.
Lin Chen was also dumbfounded by Scarlett's words.
It turned out to be for this reason. He just thought that what he said was too profound and the other party couldn't understand, so he cried.
"What the hell is going on little Scarlett?"Melanie asked while looking at the boy opposite. At this glance, her eyes seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, unable to extricate herself.
"Mommy, that's it……"
Little Scarlett talked a lot, but as she was talking, she found that her mother didn't react at all. When she looked up, she saw her mother Melanie staring straight ahead.
She was stunned for a moment. Looking back, I saw little pastor Chen standing there.
Mommy is looking at the dust?
Little Scarlett frowned, and suddenly felt as if her beloved thing had been taken away. She grabbed her mother's arm angrily and shook it:
"Mommy, don't look, don't prepare, the dust is mine, I found the little pastor"
"Ah? ?"
Melanie came back to her senses and looked at her daughter's angry look. She thought she was distracted just now, which made her angry. She quickly apologized and said with a smile:"Sorry little Scarlett, Mommy was thinking about something else just now. Can you tell mommy about this thing again?"
"Stop talking! Let's go home!"
Little Scarlett was afraid that the little pastor would be stared at by her mother, so she quickly took her hand and walked into the house.
"Hey, little Scarlett, little Scarlett, mommy has something else to do.……"
Melanie was pulled back three steps and turned back, staring straight at the bald boy, wondering when he moved next door, how come she didn't know at all?
Also, this kid is so cute. I really want to hug and kiss her.
I originally thought that my daughter Scarlett was cute and charming enough, but I didn’t expect that the little boy next door was actually cuter and more charming. etc!
I am not a child molester...
No, this is a crime, this is blasphemy! oh! My Lord, please forgive me for my unclean thoughts just now, but... Why do I think about it more and more?
Watching mother and daughter leave.
Lin Chen touched his bald head, a little confused about this American's brain circuit. never mind.
Anyway, I'm going to stay here for a few days, and then I'll talk to Black Widow... No, little Scarlett.
Speaking of which, through a simple exchange with little Scarlett, Lin Chen learned some ideas for the next missionary work. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
That is to avoid gods and focus on teaching people how to become a"Buddha" if they have sudden enlightenment.
Although Lin Chen has special abilities that no one in the world has, you must know that the United States is in the 21st century.They all still believe in the geocentric theory, and even more believe that outer space does not exist. It is just a weird country with a huge black cloth made by the senior officials in order to confuse ordinary people like them.
In such a strange country,
Lin Chen doubted whether there was someone with abnormal brains. Seeing him acting strangely, he wanted to recreate the drama of burning witches to death in the Middle Ages.
Of course, Lin Chen is more worried about the urinary behavior of the US government agencies. What if they think he is a little unusual and detain him and prevent him from returning to the country?
After all, the United States has done this more than once.
Although it is said that possessing the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Golden Bell makes Lin Chen invincible, he still has to exercise restraint as much as possible.
After thinking about this, Lin Chen turned around and returned to the house. He had already noticed that the hostess on the opposite side was peeking towards him.
In fact, what Lin Chen doesn't know is that Americans are both modern and feudal.
Although they use high-tech products, their thinking is still in the old era.
They firmly believe in weird things, otherwise why would the Americans Is the organization repeatedly banned?
There are even top rich people who slow down the growth of age and appearance by drinking virgin blood.
Just when Lin Chen finished breakfast and was about to go upstairs to rest for a while and wait for Senior Brother Guo Lin's car to pick them up to visit New York, his cell phone suddenly rang.
I thought it was Qingxia calling, but when I pulled it out, I saw it was an unfamiliar number.
Lin Chen only remembered giving this phone card issued in the United States to one person.
Nicholas?
Why did he call so early?
Lin Chen was confused, but he didn't think much and pressed the answer button directly.
"The Holy Son of Yichen. Cage
's iconic laughter came from the other end of the phone:"I'm sorry, did I disturb your rest by calling you so early?""
"No, I've been up for a long time"
"Wow, okay, it seems that you Kung Fu practitioners are different, you get up really early."
Nicholas was talking on his cell phone and quickly came to the study. He had just woken up not long ago and wanted to call Lin Chen to see if he was awake.
Unexpectedly, he actually woke up.
It was only after eight o'clock.
Nicholas has never gotten up so early before.
That is to say, he went to bed early yesterday night and did not go out to pick up girls.
Otherwise, except for filming, he would not wake up until noon or afternoon.[]
"Is this the Holy Son? You told me yesterday that if I have any questions, I can ask you for help?"
"Yes, I wonder what layman Cage has any doubts about?"
"Well, my agent brought me five scripts……"
Balabala said a lot, and then Nicholas asked:"Which one do you think I should choose?"
"Tell me about the name of the script"
"Trouble in Paradise, Shawkshank’s Road to Redemption……"
"Shawkshank's path to redemption?"
When he heard this name, Lin Chen was slightly startled. Isn't the leading actor of this movie Tim Robbins?
Wait, it's still in the script stage, and the leading role hasn't even been chosen yet.
"Yes, this is a story about a man who escapes from prison and redeems himself."
"Can you tell me about the content?"
"Of course, I tell you……"
Yesterday night, before Nicolas Cage went to bed, he read these five scripts and discovered that Shawkshank's Road to Redemption was adapted from a best-selling novel.
The original author is Stephen King, a well-known American writer.
It’s just that there are not even a hundred but dozens of scripts on this self-redemption theme in Hollywood.
Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people: Wocao, this movie is awesome. The male protagonist has been planning for twenty years to escape from prison, and even made himself a fictitious identity that is 320 fake but real!
But in fact, in Nicholas' view, this script is just like that.
He started filming in 1981 and until 1991, during the ten years, he was almost exclusively making literary films.
What kind of literary film script has he not read?
You must know that Hollywood movies have now begun to show their power, and a large number of outstanding film workers and script writers from all over the world have come here one after another.
Everyone knows that European art films are great, but they don’t know that since the 1980s, many directors and screenwriters who created art films in Europe have come to Hollywood to work in Hollywood.
You can imagine how many directors and screenwriters there are in Hollywood today.
The script they created is not only interesting, but also full of suspense and exploration of human nature...
Although this"Shaokshank's Road to Redemption" is not bad, it is not enough to impress Nicholas.
The reason why I wanted to ask Lin Chen was because I happened to remember this matter and wanted to see if this Eastern Holy Son had any extraordinary insights.
My opinion?
Of course I filmed it!
《"Shawok Shan Redemption" can be compared with"The Godfather" and"Farewell My Concubine" and other classic films that are enough to be passed down to generations.
It is no exaggeration to say that if Nicholas makes such a movie, if he appears in too many bad movies in the future, then there will definitely be people who are willing to hire him to make literary films.
Why? This piece is awesome enough.
However, of course, Lin Chen couldn't just tell the other party to take the photo quickly.
After thinking about his words, he said:"Master Cage, I know that every actor hopes to have a representative work that can be recorded in film history. Donor Cage, do you think you have a representative work now?"
"representative work……"
Nicholas frowned. He has been filming for thirteen years and has made many good films, such as"Moonlight","Wild at Heart","Birdman" and other excellent literary and artistic works.
But if we really want to talk about masterpieces, Nicholas feels that these are not enough to become the masterpieces of his life, because he is still young, only 27 years old this year. Actors become more popular as they get older, and will have a career of at least 40 years in the future.
In 40 years, hasn’t there been a work that can become the masterpiece of my life?
That is to say, Lin Chen didn't know what he was thinking in his heart. If he knew, he would probably laugh without saying a word.
Nicholas has acted in many good movies, but in terms of masterpieces, this is one movie that has never been made later. The more rubbish
"Wait, Yichen Shengzi, you mean, this movie will become my masterpiece? Nicholas
is a smart man. He realized that Lin Chen asked him if he had a masterpiece. Wasn't he just telling himself in a subtle way that this movie would become the masterpiece of his life?
"Amitabha! Lin
Chen said four words subconsciously, and then said quickly:"Master Cage, I am not a film professional, but my heart, my brain, and my wisdom tell me that you missed this movie. Regret later"
"Maybe it can't bring you wealth, but as I told you, life is suffering, and as a human being, you cannot be blinded by money and desire."
