Turn over from love

Chapter 184 The Raiden Project
In the closed study room, a desk lamp was emitting a gentle light.

The space is not big, and the large bookshelf standing high on the wall occupies a lot of space, and the bookshelf is full of various types of books.

There is a computer in the study, the screen is on, and the screensaver wallpaper is displayed. The owner does not seem to want to use the computer.

Lu Zhou was sitting on the opposite side of the desk. In front of him was screenwriter Li Wen holding a black marker pen. Under his pen was a stack of old and yellowed blank draft paper.

Li Wen, a well-known screenwriter in the industry, wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses, is in his early 40s, wears ordinary clothes, has a kind of refined scholarly temperament, has a calm personality, and speaks slower.

In today's fast-paced society, whether it's him or his study, Lu Zhou feels faintly born out of the world, as if he can't keep up with the development of the times.

But Li Wen is a delicate screenwriter. Many of his works have a sense of uniqueness. He is a creator who can properly integrate humanistic emotions into the script.

In the last life, Lu Zhou asked a screenwriter to help him write a movie script. He hired several well-known sci-fi screenwriters in China, and what they wrote made Lu Zhou dissatisfied.

Those well-known screenwriters who have representative works in the field of domestic sci-fi movies like to bring private goods every time they hear him explain the storyline he wants to shoot.

Either they think this arrangement is inappropriate, or that arrangement is unreasonable, and the explanation with a strong attitude is not as smooth as they think... In the end, they couldn't write well what Lu Zhou wanted to shoot.

Holding those scripts that he didn't want, Lu Zhou looked up at the starry sky, and a strong sense of loneliness invaded his heart.

No one can understand him.

In his bones, there is an impulse to pursue the ultimate in art. What he wants to do must first satisfy himself.

In his last life, why did he make this movie?
for money?no.

In order to challenge a new point of interest?no.

Making movies is not his hobby.

He just suddenly didn't know the meaning of living. He had enjoyed enough of the stage, and he also tasted the taste of love like never before. The person who got the love, the person who lost the love, the career was overturned, and he continued to work hard with blood and tears. climb up……

His life experience is very rich, that life should be regarded as not in vain, but his heart is very empty, a kind of sad emptiness, deep regret.

He used to look at the starry sky alone in a daze, but he couldn't find where he belonged.

He also often thought of his first life, which was a completely different world, and when he missed his parents, he couldn't help crying.

No one knows where he came from, and the only belonging he found in this world is lost, and no one can really walk into his heart in the future.

He suddenly had an impulse.

I want to use a different way to tell the story of that world.

He wanted to express the world that he hadn't had time to describe to her in the form of a movie.

Although he knew that with the technology at the time, he couldn't make much sense of reality, but he thought that even a corner of it could be captured.

He doesn't know how to make movies.

So, he spent money to find a screenwriter, a director, and a producer.

After a wave of screening, the level of screenwriting alone is quite bumpy.

Until later, he found another way and found a screenwriter who was not good at this subject, but unexpectedly gave him a surprise.

The screenwriter is Li Wen.

A well-known screenwriter who seems to have the temperament of being old-fashioned and not following the trend of the times.

He is very delicate, he has his own opinions, but he will not change the plot that Lu Zhou wants to present without authorization, and he can grasp the expression of emotion well, without going too far or abruptly.

In the end, they worked together to produce a work that Lu Zhou was satisfied with.

If you ask him why he let Luo Feng poach Li Wen in this life, this is the reason.

Because they have worked together successfully.

Lu Zhou's thoughts drifted back to the present, and the soft light in the study made it easy to immerse himself in the storyline he wanted to express.

"What kind of story do you want to tell in this movie?"

Li Wen pushed the mirror frame on the bridge of his nose, held a pen and raised his eyes to ask Lu Zhou.

He is going to write notes by hand, which is his personal habit.

"A Tale of a New World."

Lu Zhou clasped his hands and put his fingers on his thighs naturally, with a slight smile on his lips.

"It's a world where humans are divided into grades and grades based on genes."

Li Wen listened to Lu Zhou's description, and began to write in an orderly manner on the draft paper with a black signature pen.

"People live under high walls."

Hearing this, Li Wen raised his head and glanced at Lu Zhou, and interrupted him for the first time, asking a question: "A high wall?"

"Yes, the high wall."

Lu Zhou didn't look at Li Wen, his eyes fell on the bookshelf behind him, and his mind was full of pictures about that world.

"That is a high wall to protect human beings. It is impossible for non-genetically special human beings to witness the scenery beyond the high wall. Of course, ordinary people don't want to see it. Everyone just wants to live in peace within the wall. Have a good time."

"In that world, the moment you were born determines how high you can stand in the future. Because your genes determine everything."

"The superior genetically controlled the world."

"People with inferior genes become ordinary people, accepting the allocation of survival resources from upper-class humans, and living a life with an end in sight."

Li Wenshu stopped writing, frowned and asked, "Can't we break through with hard work?"

Lu Zhou shook his head lightly and said with a smile, "It's very difficult."

"Under the high wall, there are scarce resources for survival, and everyone has to accept the distribution."

"This is the crisis of the entire human ecological civilization, and the human fertility rate has become very low."

"The Federation believes that it can only be improved from generation to generation through genes. All people must undergo genetic testing after birth, and then be imported into the genetic analysis library."

"After adulthood, marriage is also waiting to be allocated, and the brain will conduct a comprehensive assessment to arrange a spouse candidate for each person."

Listening to what Lu Zhou said with a nose and eyes, his expression and the tone of the narration made Li Wen have an illusion, did Lu Zhou live in the world of this story?
"So, people are relatively numb to love, or even not. Men and women just complete the task of giving birth together."

"Task?" Li Wen frowned again, "Could it be a target that must be completed?"

Lu Zhou shook his head.

"The Federation didn't give a clear target, but...the shape of society will force everyone to choose this path."

"Of course, if you are a genetically inferior human being, you will be more free in this respect than genetically superior people. You can not marry or have children. Anyway, it is not easy for inferior genes to pass on a generation of good genes."

"I heard that there are still many inferior humans who voluntarily choose to die alone. They think that not wasting resources can be considered a contribution to society."

When Lu Zhou said this, his expression was a little sad.

"I heard?" Li Wen raised his eyebrows, always feeling that Lu Zhou's words gave him a strange feeling.

When Lu Zhou came back to his senses, he realized that he had said something wrong.

From Lu Zhou's point of view, it is indeed heard...Because he was born in a superior gene family, he was born as a human with superior genes, and he has not personally experienced the life of inferior genes, so...

He pursed his lips and smiled, and explained: "Oh, I took the role of the protagonist... a bit into the drama."

Li Wen nodded clearly. It is quite normal that such a situation cannot be ruled out.

"So, what is the situation of the protagonist you want to write about?" Li Wen asked.

"The protagonist I want to write about..." Lu Zhou recalled, with a smile of admiration on his face, and said, "It's a boy who came out of inferior genes."

Li Wen became interested and wrote vigorously on the draft paper.

"His name is Jay Leighton."

"His birth was a plan of their family."

"Didn't you just ask if people with inferior genes can break through class through hard work?"

When Lu Zhou said this, he interacted with Li Wen.

Li Wen was stunned, why does this kid really feel like he is telling a story that he personally experienced?

"It's possible, but it's hard."

Lu Zhou asked and answered himself.

"Jay Leighton is a typical example of stepping from an inferior genetic slum to a higher genetic circle."

"Not only that, he finally led the team out of the high wall."

"He's a hero."

When Lu Zhou said this, he smiled.

Li Wen: "You said before that the birth of Jay Leighton was a plan of their family. What kind of plan was that?"

Lu Zhou raised his eyes and looked at the night sky outside the window.

"It's a plan for generations to sacrifice themselves for the family's first day..."

That night, Lu Zhou sat in Li Wen's study until the second half of the night, discussing the story of the movie script in detail.

Li Wen was amazed that Lu Zhou's control of the story was already very complete. He could write the story down by himself. The whole story only needs to be fine-tuned for the characters before it can be used for filming.

Li Wen felt that he did not play a big role in this script, but when he told Lu Zhou his true inner thoughts, he smiled disapprovingly.

"No, you are an integral part of this script. This story is a story that the two of us can only complete together."

"It would have less soul without you."

"With you here, we can make the core of the story fuller, the collision of characters more dramatic, and the character setting more three-dimensional. These are the blind spots of me, a non-professional."

This is Lu Zhou's reply to Li Wen.

As a result, Li Wen had a different view of Lu Zhou.

Tonight, for the first time, he felt that he made the right choice to join Luming Culture.

In the end, they named the screenplay "The Layden Project."

……

The movie script needs to be fine-tuned, and it will definitely take time, but now that the prototype has come out, it can be shown to investors.

Lu Zhou asked someone to make a detailed film project proposal, and brought along the first draft of the "Leyden Project" script that Li Wen rushed out to meet Zhang Chen and Ye Fangfei.

It has been more than a week since the last time I saw them.

Time can quickly dilute some things, like embarrassment.

Ye Fangfei had already forgotten her embarrassing behavior after being drunk before, and when she appeared in front of Lu Zhou again, she was still the generous and unassuming Ye Fangfei.

However, after experiencing that drunkenness, her state of mind still changed somewhat.

When I see him, I can't help feeling a little nervous and excited, I can't help but want to get closer to him, I want to hear his voice, see his smile, and my attention is always attracted by his every move.

Brief summary: Seeing him, she was always itchy.

This is what it feels like to have a crush on someone, right?It's really amazing.

Oh no, she is already in love now!
He knows she likes him!

She also knew that he meant something to her!
However, neither of them chose to pierce the thin layer of window paper when they were awake.

Really pretend to be confused while pretending to understand.

She didn't understand his behavior before, but now she can understand, and she chooses to respect him.

Once she would feel—

"I like you, and you like me, so we can be together. I don't care about the so-called money, fame, status, because I have them all. I can easily get you what you want, You just have to have the courage to be with me, and that's enough."

Now that she has realized it, she feels——

"It turns out that I like you, and you like me, so I should not only consider whether I care, but also whether you care. If you want to abandon the dignity you value to be with me, then While it’s sweet, it must also bring you some harm.”

Therefore, Ye Fangfei has now made up her mind.

She thinks that a man who walks to her side step by step with his own efforts will be more attractive.

Of course, she would not stand still and wait for him to come, she would take the initiative to walk towards him.

He walked fifty steps closer to her, and she walked fifty steps closer to him.

I just hope this process doesn't take too long.

On the projection screen, project financing proposals, market evaluation data, and detailed descriptions of movie themes are switched page by page... clearly.

Lu Zhou's voice came slowly, and he told Ye Fangfei and Zhang Chen seriously about the movie he was going to make, including the production team he expected to find, and he had a clear plan.

Ye Fangfei looked at the man in front of her. His conversation at this time made her feel a little strange to him.

Ye Fangfei's understanding of Lu Zhou mainly lies in the aspect of music and art, but at this moment, he has an aura similar to that of her father and brother in business.

There seems to be a slight violation, but it doesn't seem to be.

It can be seen that he is trying to switch states.

He's really trying to do something that he's not that good at, but does surprisingly well.

To tell the truth, Ye Fangfei told Lu Zhou that she wanted to make a movie at the beginning. Although she gave him a lot of acceptance because of her love for him, she didn't hold much hope deep down in her heart.

At first, she didn't think that Lu Zhou would have such a good movie idea. After all, he is a layman when it comes to movies.

But now seeing his script and project proposal, she was amazed.

It can be seen that he is doing this seriously, not just for fun.

Zhang Chen was also surprised by Lu Zhou's film project.

After listening to Lu Zhou's project introduction, Zhang Chen's heart was about to move.

He had a premonition that this project could earn a lot of money, so he made an excited decision immediately, "[-] million, I vote!"

Hearing this, Lu Zhou secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled and asked, "Are you sure?"

"Sure, but we still want to sign the bet you said before." Zhang Chen said.

Ye Fangfei, who was next to her, raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, looked at Zhang Chen, and said, "Is there still a lot to bet on? Can you do it? Why don't you quit? I'll vote all [-] million."

Zhang Chen was stimulated.

"Let me quit? No way! I talked about this project with Lu Zhou first, but if you are a latecomer, if you quit, I will also cover your [-] million. Anyway, you are only interested in making music, and you don't care about making money. Don't worry." meddling in this."

Lu Zhou was amused and said, "I don't think too much investment, why don't you all contribute a little more."

Zhang Chen: "..."

Ye Fangfei: "..."

In the end, the three finalized the investment amount.

In the end, Zhang Chen also said that the special effects of the movie will be made by the team of his game company.

Today's negotiation ended successfully, Lu Zhou was very happy, and he offered to invite the two of them to dinner.

As soon as Zhang Chen heard this, he remembered the scene of eating last time, looked at Ye Fangfei with a smile, and said, "Are you still drinking?"

Ye Fangfei's face darkened, and she gave him an expression of "Are you looking for a fight?"

Lu Zhou patted Zhang Chen on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You know that she doesn't drink well, but you still mention this on purpose. It's okay to hate you."

In the end, the three of them didn't have a meal. Ye Fangfei still had work to do, and Zhang Chen also had something to do. The investor dinner didn't come together.

The three of them went out together, and then went their separate ways.

Not long after, a candid photo was widely circulated on the Internet.

It was the illegitimate fan following Lu Zhou who secretly photographed him, Zhang Chen, and Ye Fangfei going out talking and laughing, and then posted it on the Internet without understanding what was going on.

This photo has become a hot search, and netizens who eat melons are also full of question marks about this scene.

[What's the meaning?How could the three of them be together?Don't you agree? ]
[Looking at these three people talking and laughing, they seem to have a good relationship in private, they can't be friends with each other... That's outrageous]
[Ah ah ah!The Filipino couple actually dated in private!Are they secretly together? ]
[Philippines CP fans are stunned, are you blind?So the big Zhang Chenchu ​​is between them, can't you see?If Lu Zhou and Ye Fangfei were really in a relationship, how could they meet Zhang Chen in private together?Lu Zhou doesn't respond?Ye Fangfei doesn't respond?Doesn't Zhang Chen respond?It is obvious that Lu and Ye are friends at all, so there is no taboo]
[As expected of the entertainment industry, my ex is my good friend, and the person who had an affair with my ex is also my good friend, forming a perfect closed loop]
[The CP I used to drink, in the end either became friends or enemies... I feel tired and don't love]
……

Ye Fangfei frowned when she saw this trending search, and created a three-person chat group called "Project Raiden Production Team".

After doing all this, she threw the hot search screenshot in the group.

Ye Fangfei: [Who is being followed]
Zhang Chen cursed and entered the group chat——

[Damn, why am I on the hot search again? ! ]
[Annoying, it's really a wave of just flattening and another wave]
[You two are stars, you must have been followed by the paparazzi, implicating me in the trending search]
Ye Fangfei: [There are very few paparazzi who dare to follow me]
Lu Zhou: [Maybe it's me... I have a lot of people with me recently...]
Ye Fangfei: [You are famous now, if you need it, take someone with you when you go out]
Lu Zhou: [It's not that famous yet...]
Lu Zhou: [This hot search is quite nonsensical, it doesn't look like paparazzi behavior]
Zhang Chen: [It's done]
Ye Fangfei: [? ? ? ]
Lu Zhou: [? ? ? ]
Zhang Chen: [hot search removed]
Ye Fangfei: […]
Lu Zhou: […]
Zhang Chen: [(hehe) Anyone who commits Zhang Chen's hot search will be killed! ]
Ye Fangfei: […]
Lu Zhou: […]
Lu Zhou: [What did this hot search offend you? ]
Zhang Chen: [It makes sense, it seems that I didn't do anything wrong? ]
Zhang Chen: [Oh, it may be the sequelae left by the hot search last time]
Ye Fangfei: [I want to block you again @张陈]
Zhang Chen: […]
