Improv [Rebirth]

With Qi Andong, Chen Yan has the confidence to go directly to He Manman.He said Sister Man, I thought about it, but the book was still not good enough, so I wrote another one and sent it to you for a look?

He sent the new version directly without waiting for a reply from the other side.Their work and rest are irregular, and they don't know when they will come up to check the news, and the wait is in vain.

Chen Yan found an afternoon when Qi Andong was not at home, and accepted Han Tianzong's appointment.They met at the restaurant, which is famous for its claypot rice, with a high attendance rate and a long queue at the takeaway window.

After ordering, it was a usual exchange of greetings, reminiscing about the past, talking about their current situation, and then turning to the topic.

"Brother, why did you suddenly meet Qi Andong?" Han Tianzong fiddled with the chopsticks in his hand, staring at him with burning eyes.

"We met when we were studying." Chen Yan smiled. He didn't want to talk about Qi Andong at all, and racked his brains to find a way to change the topic.

"Ah? I don't know why..." Han Tian raised his eyebrows, and there was something in his words.

Chen Yan saw that his expression was not right, so he hurriedly said: "At the end of the year before last, he went to pay New Year's greetings to the teacher. I was collecting things in the house at the time, and the teacher introduced it for me."

"The year before last..." Han Tian smacked, half-smile, "I never heard of it, and Teacher Lu didn't tell me."

"You were busy at that time. Didn't you work on projects with that student from the director department called Hong?"

"Hong Zizhen?"

"Yes, it's him. If you come to the teacher a few more times, maybe you can meet Qi Andong."

Han Tianzong lowered his head, smiling unabated: "I don't know whether to say that Senior Brother is innocent, or Senior Senior Brother is really blaming me."

"What?" Chen Yan was stunned.

"Are you blaming me for not seeing the teacher often?"

"I do not……"

"But Mr. Lu is not my teacher after all, and my senior brother and I are just senior senior brothers. The biological and the adopted are always different."

"Tian Zong..." Chen Yan didn't know what to say.

He had been looking forward to this meeting ever since he received the text message from Han Tianzong, and he had even imagined it countless times in his mind, but the reality was far from what he thought.

Since he woke up, Sister Man and Tianzong seem to be different from before. Is it because the world has changed, or is it that I was really naive like what my junior said, so I can’t understand anything? Unclear?

"I'm sorry, senior brother. There's something wrong with the project in my hand these days, and I'm not in a good mood." Han Tian took a deep breath, showing a bright smile, "I feel more and more self-righteous. If you can't stand out, you will always be an unknown little screenwriter."

Only then did Chen Yan breathe a sigh of relief, and then comforted him: "How is it possible, with your talent, you will succeed one day."

"That's right," he lowered his eyes, "If I'm really talented, Mr. Lu wouldn't refuse to accept me. If you didn't plead for mercy, I wouldn't even have the chance to study with him. Brother, Lu The old man has already seen through, I am not as good as you."

"No!" Chen Yan suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist with an eager expression.

Han Tianzong was frightened by him, and looked straight at him. Chen Yan realized that he had behaved improperly, and hurriedly withdrew his hand, saying: "The teacher said that he didn't accept students based on talent, he only accepted me because I was in a certain school. And Tianzong, you will always be the most talented in my heart, if you can't succeed, then no one else can."

"Do you remember what you wrote on the forum? Your protagonist said that neither genius nor diligence is the criterion for determining a person. He is not the most diligent or the smartest, but others use their talents to 90% 99% of the time, he does it."

"You also said that the words left by a person will become his definition after his death..."

"I don't remember." Han Tianzong turned to hold his hand.

Chen Yan stared at him with wide eyes.

"Those words are not what I want to write, but what you want to hear." His sharp eyes suddenly slowed down, "Brother, thank you, but..."

Before Chen Yan could finish speaking, he suddenly withdrew his hand and shouted behind him: "Brother Zhengqing."

Han Tianzong turned his head and saw Ni Zhengqing's eyes move from their hands to his face, making him suddenly forget what he was talking to Chen Yan just now.

"Brother Zhengqing!"

Chen Yan looked at the person who yelled the same sentence in surprise.With obvious excitement on Han Tianzong's face, he was about to stand up and walk towards Ni Zhengqing.

He was caught by the table and chairs, and he was unable to move. Before he could go out, Ni Zhengqing had already walked to Chen Yan's side.

"Brother Zhengqing..." Seeing that Ni Zhengqing ignored him, Han Tian called out again, with a very confused and aggrieved tone, "You don't remember me?"

Ni Zhengqing sized him up twice, then nodded: "Tian Zong?"

Han Tianzong was happy now, and hurriedly called the waiter to add more tableware.

"No need," Ni Zhengqing waved his hand, "I'll buy takeaway for Brother Dong."

"Brother Dong?" Han Tianzong repeated sharply.

"Do you know each other?" Chen Yan asked curiously, "What a coincidence, you are—"

"Hometown."

"classmate."

After the two of them finished speaking, they looked at each other, Han Tianzong smiled embarrassedly, but Ni Zhengqing showed no expression.

"Come over and say hello when I see you," he said to Chen Yan, "I'm leaving first, Brother Dong should wait."

He said goodbye to Han Tianzong politely.

"Sit down for a while, are you in such a hurry?" Before Chen Yan could say anything, Han Tianzong took his talk away.

"No." Ni Zhengqing nodded to Chen Yan, then turned and walked to the takeaway window.

Han Tianzong was still standing there looking at his back in line, he kept watching, he seemed a little hesitant, and he didn't come back to his senses until Chen Yan called him.

"You know brother Zhengqing?"

"Well, I was a kid in elementary school when he was in high school. Our school was on the same campus. He was very famous at that time."

"Famous for fighting?"

"No, why did you think of this?" Han Tian laughed, "It's writing a novel."

"Ah?!" Chen Yan was dumbfounded this time, "You...you didn't recognize the wrong person, did you?"

"Impossible. Although he dropped out of school when I was in junior high school, I made a special trip to find him. By the way, what is Brother Zhengqing doing now?"

"He's Dong Ge's manager."

"Brother Dong...Qi Andong?" Han Tianzong didn't seem surprised, "Well, he should have followed Qi Andong when I went to find him. At that time, I asked him what he was doing, and he said impatiently that he was serving people and was in a hurry. I left, but later he changed his number and disappeared.”

Thinking of Qi Andong's appearance, Chen Yan couldn't help but feel that Ni Zhengqing must have suffered a lot of grievances many years ago.

"As a primary school student, why do you have such a good relationship with the high school?"

"I live not far from him. I always meet him on the way to school. Later, when I heard his name, I thought it was cool. He was much better than my friends, so I begged him to let him take me to play. .”

Chen Yan laughed out loud: "You were so...he actually agreed."

"He liked movies when he was a child, and he always asked the school to borrow cameras to shoot things, but the public ones couldn't be borrowed for long, it was very inconvenient, so I stole the DV at home and gave it to him. Because of this, my father beat me all black. One piece of purple, he saw it, and he didn't chase me away after that."

Chen Yan was speechless, he didn't expect his junior brother to be so naughty when he was a child.

"I thought he would definitely study film, but..." Han Tian shook his head with a dazed expression.

Chen Yan has never seen his junior brother like this, even when he said just now that he has no talent and will never succeed in his life, there was a smile in his eyes.

The phone rang twice, Chen Yan picked it up and saw that it was He Manman, who roared all over the screen, saying that he was crazy, that the manuscript was overdue, and he had to change it, and the changes became more and more unsightly.

Chen Yan sent her a message directly, saying that it's okay, you just hand it in, and if they scold you, you can scold me.

"If you dare to trick my old lady, I will kill you!" He Manman reluctantly agreed to give it a try after pestering her for several rounds.

"The ugly words are up front. You will definitely be beaten back. Don't blame me then."

Chen Yan smiled back at her.

The two had their own thoughts during the meal, and when they finally parted, they made an appointment to visit Lu Kaiji together next time.

Ni Zhengqing handed the claypot rice to Qi Andong who had waited in line for a long time. Qi Andong took the rice, but didn't eat it, and walked around him as if he had something to do.

Ni Zhengqing looked at him expressionlessly: "Just eat, nothing else, there are people all around, it's too noisy."

"Really," Qi Andong sat down and took apart the chopsticks, "I just want to eat claypot rice, and I didn't ask you to stare at him."

Ni Zhengqing snorted: "Can you ask me what you want to ask next time? There are so many goofs."

"Zhengqing," Qi Andong gobbled it up, grinning, "You don't want my people to go out and have sex with others, do you?"

Ni Zhengqing ignored him, and sat by himself in a daze.

Not long after Qi Andong rested, he went on stage again. Buying and delivering meals was originally not under Ni Zhengqing's control, but Qi Andong wanted to call him.

Qi Andong was filming, while Ni Zhengqing was staring at the people coming and going in the studio in a daze.

This is the first few days of filming, so there are still quite a few miscellaneous people sneaking glances at Qi Andong, eager to try; more people are circling around the director, trying to strike up a conversation.

Ni Zhengqing looked at Qi Andong for a while, and felt that he had nothing to do with him, so he turned to look at the director wearing a peaked cap.

When Lu Kaiji just switched from screenwriting to directing, he said that there are thousands of 800 people on the set, and everyone is staring at the same position - the director, and everyone wants to sit on it.

Ni Zhengqing also wanted to be a director before, even when Qi Andong asked Min Rufeng to be his assistant for the first few years, he still dreamed of becoming famous one day.

He no longer has this kind of dream now, the more he stays in the circle, the more he knows how difficult it is, an assistant, lucky enough to become an agent, just like him now.With better luck, I can continue to go up and become a producer.But want to be a director?When awake, there is no hope.

The chain of contempt in the entertainment industry is strict and hierarchical. If you graduated from high school, have never studied film, have no culture, no artistic level, and no money, no one will recognize you, and it is impossible to give you a chance.

"Are you in a bad mood today?" Qi Andong ran over to ask during his break. He felt that Ni Zhengqing was not in the right mood today.

Over there shook his head, collected the bowls and chopsticks after eating for him, turned and left the studio.
