Chapter 8 This road is dead
"So, what do you think about what happened to him, suicide, and amnesia?" The hoarse and lazy voice of girlfriend Wu Xiuchu came from the Bluetooth headset.
The setting sun still had the last bright red afterglow, Yan Yingzhen's white hand rested on the railing, resting on her arm, the afterglow shone on her face, making her look like a goddess in myth.
She looked lazily at the garden below the balcony, her body arched like a cat, sexy and soft.
The winter garden is so withered, the green grass of the green leaves, the delicate flowers is not seen.
But on that branch, in that soil, there is a majestic life force that is accumulating strength, ready to bloom.
"I didn't think much about it, I just didn't expect him to be so fragile that he would commit suicide." Yan Yingzhen said.
"Hey, you're too cold, aren't you? At least you two had a relationship."
A sneer appeared on Yan Yingzhen's glamorous face: "I was too young to fall in love with that kind of person. Although I am a little talented, I am arrogant, conceited, willful, vulgar, promiscuous, and shameless... "
Wu Xiuchu giggled and said, "Come on, who was going to die or live in front of me back then?"
Yan Yingzhen frowned and was about to refute when a small figure ran out of the room and jumped to the balcony.
This is a little girl carved in pink and jade, at the age of six or seven, with two small braids of sheep's horns, as delicate and beautiful as a porcelain doll.
She flashed her big eyes that seemed to be able to talk, and her long eyelashes trembled gently, "Mom, mom, can you buy me a cell phone?"
Yan Yingzhen said lightly, "Why?"
The little girl said in a milky voice, "Because I want to call Dad."
"When you grow up, I'll buy you a cell phone. Now, go to practice the piano for an hour." Yan Yingzhen's voice was flat, but firm.
The little girl pouted and ran back to the house.
Yan Yingzhen looked back and said to her best friend, "That was a long time ago."
Wu Xiuchu said, "I don't believe that you have no sympathy for him."
Yan Yingzhen could feel that her best friend was pouting.
"Maybe yes, maybe no, it's not important," after a pause, Yan Yingzhen continued, "What matters is, for such a cowardly person who chooses to commit suicide, for a person who has lost his memory, may have forgotten me, and forgot to Wei's man, I won't stop and turn to look at him."
...
"Zongheng Film and Television Entertainment Company".
Du Caige was sitting on the bench in the hall, holding a thick stack of shooting plans, scripts, and sub-shots in his left hand, and a disposable teacup that had been refilled six, seven, eight, nine times in his right hand, and the water in the cup was too cold. Cold, low-quality tea sticks together into a very disgusting thing.
His eyes have become dull.
I looked out the window, it was getting dark soon.
At this time, a woman in her OL uniform who looked in her 20s and less than 30 hurried past with a file bag in between.
Du Caige jumped up like a spring was attached to his butt, and rushed in front of the woman with a stride, frightening the woman's face.
The security guard next to him stared at him and put his hand on the baton.
Du Caige didn't care to pay attention to the security guard's reaction, and looked at this pretty woman eagerly: "Manager Li, may I ask, is Mr. Cai willing to see me?"
The woman's eyes flickered for a moment, and then she showed a look of sudden realization, as if she finally remembered who Du Caige was.
"Sorry," she said in a Beijing accent, "Mr. Cai is really busy right now, why don't you go back first and wait for the news!"
"Please arrange for me and Mr. Cai to meet! I'm really good at making movies and have good ideas. You can read my script!" Du Cai singer hurriedly wanted to hand over the script, but the other party didn't want to accept it at all.
Hide away.
"This gentleman..."
"My name is Du."
The woman smirked, "Which film and television university did you graduate from?"
"Uh, I'm from the Modu Conservatory of Music." Du Caige said embarrassedly, not daring to say that he didn't have a graduation certificate, only a graduation certificate.
The woman continued to smirk: "What representative works do you have?"
"...Not yet."
"Mr. Du, that's right," the woman's skill is not bad, maintaining a relatively perfect, but gradually impatient smirk, "Our company has a director support program, amateur directors can also participate, you can consider participating in this program. Details Please log on to our company's website and submit your short film works after registration. Once approved, our company will consider giving 100,000-500,000 financial support to help you shoot an online movie."
Du Caige's hand froze in midair.
Want him? The youngest director of the billion-dollar club in China? Going to make a short film? Participate in the Director Support Program? In order to use the 100,000-500,000 aid fund to make shoddy online movies?
Well, Du Caige doesn't think this is an insult to himself.
After all, in this world, he is just a nobody.
However, he really doesn't have time to go through such a long process...
Du Caige sighed heavily, maintaining dignity and decency, and smiled: "Manager Li, thank you very much. I know that my request is too embarrassing."
"You're welcome." The woman surnamed Li smiled and looked at Du Caige up and down a few times. She felt a little surprised and familiar.
Of course she thought about it for a while, but she couldn't remember where she had seen this person. Maybe he looks a bit like a little star?
Looking at the handsome guy always makes people feel good, even with her, she has a good impression of Du Caige.
"Are you interested in being an actor? Our company recently wanted to develop a group of signed group performances. If you are interested, I can recommend you to audition. If you are selected, you will have a good income and a special teacher will tell you. Acting class."
"Thank you, no need," Du Caige thanked politely, "I'll just say this to you. If there is still an intersection in the future, if there is something I can help you, feel free to speak."
Want your help? Ha ha. Looking at Du Caige's mid-to-low-end brand clothing, the woman surnamed Li smiled politely: "Yes, yes."
...
On the way back to the community by subway, Du Caige thought that it would be impossible to resume the old business in a short time.
Although there are many differences between this blue star world and the earth, there are many well-known masterpieces, film and television works that have not appeared.
For him, it is like walking on the diamond-covered beach, leaning over to pick it up, and grabbing it at your fingertips, it's a classic.
However, the original owner did not have a serious background in film and television learning, so why should he fool investors into investing money?
In the past few days, he ran to no less than ten film and television companies in the magic city.
As a result, when others hear his graduate school, they are like "hehe", "no see" and "you go".
That's kind of polite.
Some people directly said: "If you want to cheat money, go to the music company to cheat! You went to the wrong studio for filming with us."
In the last life, Du Caige graduated with honors from the Beijing Film Directing Department with a master's degree and has a unique understanding of movies; a brother with a particularly good eloquence ran for him and helped him pull investment; luckily, he met a willing man. The investor who gave him the opportunity; also happened to meet a producer who was a perfect fit.
A combination of factors allowed him to get his first investment and make a small-budget movie with a big box office hit, and then he rose rapidly.
But in the blue star, I am afraid it is difficult to copy.
After all, he's not good at words, doesn't know how to socialize, and doesn't have a beautiful resume. Where can he fool people into investing in him?
The flickering investment methods in some online novels and entertainment articles he has read are actually not suitable for him.
He will only hold a disposable paper cup, sit silently outside the investor's office, and wear his reception chair...
However, 9 million will be repaid in the near future, and more than 30 million will be repaid in the future.
If you don't make a movie, what will you get back?
I only make movies.
work to earn a living? It is impossible to work part-time, and it is impossible to work part-time in this life. Not doing business. Only by making movies can I barely make a living like this.
Now that no investors have invested money for him to make movies, Du Caige really can't think of any way to make money for a while.
Do WeChat? WeChat has not yet been born in this world, and this should have a way of making money.
But I can't write code myself. And doing WeChat also needs to attract investment and burn money.
Stocks? This is hilarious. This is not Earth. but a different world. The stock market will move differently.
With your own eyes, how to invest in a few companies that may catch fire in the future? For example, the Azure Star version of Facebook, YouTube? Haha, do you have money to invest?
And there are many creative companies like Facebook and YouTube on the earth. The companies that survive are not only creative, but also related to the company's founders, managers, and technical teams. Du Caige knows nothing about this. Vision, it is difficult to lock the final winner in advance.
Du Caige scratched his head in annoyance.
After leaving the subway station, Du Caige finally thought of a solution.
The person who came to collect the debt that day vaguely stated that he had valuables on hand.
But I didn't see it myself.
Perhaps, something was hidden in that locked room.
It could also be in a bank safe.
Then tomorrow I will pry open the room and check it again. If I can't find it, I will go to each bank and ask if the original owner has deposited anything in the bank safe.
By the way, to get some cash, he has almost no money to eat.
These few days can't be regarded as a waste, at least let yourself understand that this road is not available.
Next, change direction and work hard!
Du Caige lowered his head and quickly returned to the community, came to the overhead floor of the unit building, and pressed the elevator.
After a while, with a "ding" sound, the elevator arrived.
Back in the community, to the unit where he lived, Du Caige walked in with his head down and pressed "5".
The house has only 8 floors, but the upper three floors are duplex structures, so the floors are still high, so an elevator is installed.
The elevator door was slowly closing when suddenly a figure rushed over and tried to reach out an arm to block the elevator door.
