Play bone

At seven o'clock that night, the old security door of the Lu family was knocked open.A man and a woman stood at the door, they were An Huawen and Anna.

This was also the first time Lu Li met An Huawen after Shen Xingxuan's birthday.The Chinese-American man looked more like an authentic foreigner, but it surprised Lu Li's mother.

The two guests were invited to sit on the sofa in the living room. After making tea and cutting fruit, Lu Li's mother went out to dance in the square, leaving only three people facing each other in the house.

An Huawen leaned forward and crossed his hands on his knees apart, a signal to start a conversation.

He asked Lu Li, "Your mother, doesn't she know what happened?"

Lu Li looked in the direction of the door: "She's that kind of person. If she knows she can't do anything, she will quietly watch and won't put pressure on others and add trouble."

"It's indeed a very interesting character." An Huawen nodded, and then pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose: "Unfortunately, I really can't keep quiet, although in this incident, my team and I I’m afraid there’s nothing I can do.”

Something in Lu Li's heart made a "bang" sound.

Are you kidding me?The Shen Group set up a public relations team of 2000 people at all costs for Shen Xing, with a regular public relations fee of [-] million, and how many people can it have in Mener Studio?In front of the huge Shen's empire, he is nothing more than an overwhelmed ant.But now An Huawen is talking about "powerlessness"... Is he scaremongering, or does he have some worse news that makes him make such a pessimistic judgment?

Lu Li's heart tightened up and down, and an ominous feeling surged up like a tide.Finally, before he was completely defeated by his own wild thinking, he saw An Huawen push his glasses again.

"Have you heard the idiom 'overwhelming water is hard to recover'. Once a rumor arises, no matter how much money, manpower, material resources and time are spent to refute the rumor, the impact will not be completely extinguished. From this perspective, no matter how good None of the crisis public relations can completely restore Shen Xingxuan's public image. And this... is all because of a lie you casually said."

Lu Li was speechless.

He suddenly recalled that the reason why he disliked An Huawen at the beginning was not only because An Huawen was in the way between him and Shen Xingze, but also because An Huawen would never target without purpose.

It is said that people of mixed race are always extraordinarily intelligent, and An Huawen's intelligence not only made him popular with Shen Xingze, but also allowed him to see all of Lu Li's weaknesses.That feeling was like sticking a fingernail into the most secret wound on Lu Li's body, and then tearing it outward until it was dripping with blood.

Today's Lu Li is also experiencing this kind of tearing - the guilt that exists in his heart is magnified time and time again in An Huawen's understatement.And the magnified guilt turned into a sense of responsibility, which made Lu Li understand that he must never stay out of it.

Yes, protecting Shen Xingze has become one of his responsibilities.

Just when Lu Li finished this kind of self-suggestion, An Huawen unhurriedly revealed the real point.

"What is lost can only be lost. It is important to dispel rumors and stop losses, but more importantly, how to make up for these losses."

Unknowingly, Lu Li's mood also took a turn for the worse.

"How should I compensate?"

"Actually, it's not easy. After all, our team has done a pretty good job of converting potential fans." Speaking of this, An Huawen paused, and a glint suddenly flashed in his eyes.

"But what we can't do, you might be able to do."

Lu Li didn't like this look from the bottom of his heart, but the sense of responsibility transformed from guilt pushed him, leaving him with no other choice.

The specific plan will be explained by An Huawen to Anna.This is indeed a very "Ann's style" plan, it is like a high-end mechanical watch: the appearance is perfect and lovable, and the humanized design is highlighted everywhere; but the inside is a bunch of cold and complicated mechanisms .

From Lu Li's point of view, this plan is even a bit unscrupulous - if another stranger with a high moral standard sees this plan, then he may even be filled with righteous indignation.Because its key person is not Shen Xingxuan, Wang Ruoqiu, or the current Lu Li, but the "dead" person.

But Lu Li knew he had no choice.In order to help Shen Xingxuan, and to make up for the loss of reputation he brought to his alma mater, he had to carry out An Huawen's plan.And he is confident that he can make it exert greater energy than imagined.

In the next few hours, the three conducted a detailed feasibility study and implementation analysis.It was close to nine o'clock when it was over.The two guests got up to leave and agreed to keep in touch.

The old community was dark at night, so Lu Li insisted on sending the two of them to the main road.The three walked out along the path under the shade of the camphor tree. Just as Lu Li was racking his brains to find out about Shen Xingze's situation, he heard An Huawen speak first.

"I come from a theistic family. My father is a very devout Christian. He often taught me to have faith and to believe that miracles are possible. Lu Li, do you believe in miracles?"

Lu Li shook his head slightly: "It's hard for me to believe what I haven't witnessed with my own eyes."

"Is that so?" An Huawen chuckled with unknown meaning in the darkness, "I thought you knew the existence of miracles better than any of us. It seems that my intuition is not quite right this time." Yes."

"Being able to survive the car accident may indeed be a manifestation of some kind of miracle."

Avoiding it seemed suspicious, Lu Li deliberately distorted An Huawen's original intention, and asked without losing the opportunity, "Can I have a phone call with Shen Xingze?"

"It's a pity, but I'm afraid he won't answer anyone's calls now. Also, I'm afraid you won't be suitable to be his assistant in the future."

Knowing that this was an inevitable result, Lu Li only nodded in acceptance.

The short boulevard soon came to an end.The pick-up vehicle is already waiting at the gate.Before parting, An Huawen patted Lu Li on the shoulder, and suddenly said something in English.

"We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed."

Lu Li went back and checked the Internet, and only then did he understand the meaning of this sentence.

We may be able to escape the long sleep, but we must face change. ①

----------------

The incident of "Suspected Fraud in China Film Arts Examination" has fermented to the third day.At twelve o'clock at noon, when the social network was at its bustling time, a trumpet with zero attention and zero followers quietly posted a video.

There was only one person in the video, and that was Lu Li.Wearing plain but formal clothes, with neatly combed hair, he stood a little awkwardly in front of a powder-white wall that looked old and not old.Although the eyes are slightly red and the bags under the eyes are black, it is not difficult to see that he is a handsome young man.

At the beginning of the video, he first bowed deeply to the camera for five seconds, apologizing to China Film, Shen Xingze, and all netizens who cared about this matter.

"A simple 'sorry' cannot fully express my regret at the moment. It has been three days since the incident, and it is indeed too late for me to stand up until now. The alma mater I love deeply and the school I admire Senior brother Shen Xingcho, and many more people who care about them are all suffering innocent harm because of my hesitation, my cowardice, and my dishonesty."

His tone is unprecedentedly low, but every word is accurate and clear, and the timbre is clear, which can catch people's ears immediately.

"In the past, I tried to hide a secret, but it caused a series of bad results. Now I understand that sometimes concealing is also a kind of harm. So I muster up the courage to stand here and sincerely ask all netizens, please listen Listen to the truest story in my heart."

He paused, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, slowly opened his eyes, and stared directly at the camera.

"My name is Lu Li. This name comes from Chu Ci, and it was given by my father when I was born. I live in the small town where Hailing Studios is located. My father didn't have him early, and I was brought up by my mother since I was a child. We are well-off, but we have always been optimistic. Especially during the winter and summer vacations, I am always very happy to be able to follow my mother to work in the studio.

"During the Spring Festival when I was 16, I started to work in the crew to make money. I did everything from serving tea and pouring water to theater management. Later, I gained more experience and began to work as a life assistant for actors. In the summer, I met that everyone My favorite Lu Li. In the film crew, he asked me to call him Brother Lu.

"Brother Lu is a very easy-going and kind person. He never puts on airs to us staff. When he is free, he is even willing to listen to us tell our own stories. He said that observing human beings was his basic skill in college. Brother Lu really He loves China Film and his alma mater very much. He would tell me about the students who do morning work in the morning; about the ivy on the teaching building; about the plays in the small theater... and when he said these, his eyes lit up It was shining, as if there was light.

"I once told Brother Lu that it would be great if I could also be admitted to China Film Group. Unfortunately, with my physical condition at that time, it was absolutely impossible. However, Brother Lu encouraged me and told me not to give up. This Nothing is impossible in the world, as long as you work hard, as long as you don't give up.

"On the day of the car accident, on the way to Qiushan Base, I told Brother Lu: I will really go to the China Film Academy in the next spring. He smiled and said to me: 'Maybe we can really become brothers in the future.' Now I am really I owe him his senior brother, but this senior brother, I will owe him in the end."

Having said that, he raised his head, but the tears accumulated in his eyes still slid down.Although it was brewed for a not-so-real reason, it was indeed a sincere tear.

"On the day of the car accident, we were on the way from Hailing Studios to Qiushan Base. Brother Shen Xingze, who was a guest star at the time, had already arrived at the hotel in Qiushan Base. I was just a temporary assistant hired by the crew and had nothing to do with Juguang. I didn't even have the chance to know Senior Brother Shen. Actually, the first time I saw Senior Brother Shen was at Brother Lu's farewell ceremony, but that was only from a distance, without any contact.

"After Brother Lu passed away, I stayed in the hospital for a few days. I couldn't figure out why life was so erratic: today it was the focus of attention, but tomorrow it was nowhere to be found... But what he said to me was not All the time, all the time, in my mind.

"So I told myself, no matter what, I must be admitted to China Film Group, and I must be admitted to the alma mater that makes Brother Lu dream of; maybe Brother Lu didn't leave, he just returned to the place he loves so much. Be a ray of spring breeze among the ivy, a ray of morning glow in the ginkgo forest, waiting for me to meet him again.

"You may also know that the cost of the art test is very expensive. Although my family is ordinary, my mother still took out a large sum of money to pay for the training course and the test in the north for me. From summer vacation to winter vacation, six months Intensive training is a hell-like experience, but I have completed it, and there have been huge changes that I could not imagine in the past.

"In February of the second year was the China Film Arts Examination. I ran into Senior Brother Shen Xingxuan in the second round of the re-examination. This was also the first time I met him after saying goodbye to Brother Lu.

"I have to admit that I really cared about the reaction of senior brother Shen Xingxuan at that time, and even hoped that he would have heard of my insignificant existence. However, in fact, all his reactions to me were just a little bit after hearing my name. Just looked up.

"After the college entrance examination, I waited at home for the news of the literary examination. Since I spent a lot of money on class registration and art examination, I wanted to work in a film studio to save tuition. But I know that many film crews have their own taboos. I was afraid that they would say that my bad luck caused brother Lu's car accident; I was also afraid that from now on, no crew would ask me to work, so I deliberately concealed the accident. If you are filming in a city, the salary of a large crew will always be more lucrative, so I asked my mother's colleague to match up and took the initiative to find it.

"Maybe it's because I have the same name and surname as Brother Lu, and I passed the professional exam of China Film Group. After learning that my family was in a difficult situation, Senior Brother Shen Xingxuan first introduced me to be the assistant of Mr. Xu Rulin in the same group, and then asked me to follow his assistant. Studying. In this way, I started to serve as the life assistant of Senior Brother Shen Xingze until this summer vacation.

"Looking back now, I don't know if there is really a divine will in the dark, so that I have gained so much care and kindness along the way, which was once unknown. Not to mention, there are also the earnest teachings of the teachers and teachers of China Film Group. I have paid so much for no reason, but because of my dishonesty, hesitation and cowardice, I have caused my senior brother and my alma mater to suffer unjustly. I have a guilty conscience, a guilty conscience..."

Having said that, he bowed deeply again, and raised his head after a long time, his face was already slightly flushed.

"Finally, I just want to emphasize the only point: the so-called "China Film Arts Examination Fraud" is completely a rumor. I also understand that once rumors appear, they will never completely disappear. But those who really love Senior Brother Shen Xingxuan and China Film People in this school, please don’t be sad, because the ones you love are still kind and beautiful, and they have done nothing wrong. I am the one who made the mistake, and I am willing to accept all the punishments given by the school.”

He paused for another few seconds, sobbed, and said the last two words in an unsteady voice.

"Thank you."

The video ended so far, but when the netizens who watched the video exited the window and refreshed their Weibo, they soon discovered that there was new evidence in Lu Li's Weibo.

The author has something to say: Lu Li in the past might struggle with An Huawen's classic gray style, but now Lu Li only thinks about how to make the scene as good as possible

Of course, an apology is only a small part of the plan, and the next chapter will talk about counterattacks
