ace screenwriter

Yuan Yuan took the subway instead of the bus and returned home, his whole body was washed with sweat, and he was about to collapse.He turned on a big fan and blew it on himself. A bungalow in summer is like a steamer, and the wind from the fan is always hot. Yuan Yuan simply took a cold shower, filled his belly with cold water, and collapsed on the bed, feeling A splitting headache.There was a knock on the door, and a voice came from outside: "Brother Yuan, are you there? I'll bring you some watermelon."

Yuan Yuan heard the voice of the neighbor next door, Lu Song: "Thank you, Xiao Lu, no need, I have a headache, I want to sleep for a while, you can eat by yourself." When he just graduated, Yuan Yuan did live in the basement, but Now I have moved to a one-story house in Songzhuang, far away from the city center, but there is a sky of my own, where I can enjoy the sunshine during the day, and see a few scattered stars at night without haze .Yuan Yuan felt that people are like plants, they need sunshine and rain to grow up healthily. The life of the Rat Clan in those two years made him feel too depressing, and he would rather spend more time on the road.Moreover, the environment in the suburbs is much quieter than the basement, which is suitable for creation. The people living with him around him are all literary youths with dreams.The most important thing is that the rent is cheap. He needs to send 5000 yuan to his home every month to buy medicine for his father after the operation and pay off the family’s debts. His life is very simple. It can be said that he has not lived for himself since graduation. Pass.

"Brother Yuan, do you have a cold? I have white and black, I'll bring you two." Lu Song heard that he had a cold, so he hurried into the house to get the medicine. Lu Song is a freelance singer, a music lover Yuan Yuan once helped him change the lyrics of the dream young man, and he is very grateful to Yuan Yuan.

"No need." However, the voice of this refusal was too low, and Lu Song, who had already walked away, did not hear it.After a while, Lu Song came back, he knocked on the door persistently, Yuan Yuan came to open the door with a wet towel on his back, but Lu Song didn't enter, he stood at the door and said: "Brother Yuan, it's so hot in your room, why don't you come to me?" Rest at home, I have air conditioning."

Yuan Yuan waved his hand: "No, thank you, I have a fan here. Thank you for the medicine."

"Take cold medicine first. If it doesn't work, go to the hospital. If you need someone to accompany you, call us. Le Ran will be back later." Lu Song sang at the bar. He didn't go to work during the day, and Le Ran was his girlfriend.

"Okay, thank you." Yuan Yuan was very moved, saying that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and it is his blessing to have such friendly neighbors.After taking the medicine, he fell asleep as if sleeping in another world, until the ringing of the mobile phone pulled him back from that world.After fumbling for a long time, he finally found the mobile phone, and the phone hung up by himself. After a while, the call came again, Yuan Yuan opened a slit of his eyes, and connected the phone: "Hello?"

Liang Shuoshi's voice sounded: "Have you set off yet?"

Yuan Yuan regained consciousness and wiped his face: "What time is it?"

"It's already six o'clock, so I know you haven't left the house yet. Hurry up and get to the meeting place before eight o'clock. I've sent you the address on WeChat. Dress formally."

"Oh, I see." Yuan Yuan didn't use illness as an excuse not to go, and he couldn't go back on his promise to others.He struggled to get up, and the symptoms of headache eased a lot, but his stomach was growling with hunger, and he didn't have a meal at noon. He rummaged through it, only found two French buns for breakfast, stuffed them into his stomach at random, and took a bath When changing clothes, he remembered what Liang Shuoshi said to dress more formally, so he took out his shirt and trousers and put them on.

It was past six o'clock in the evening, the sun had not yet set, and the sky in the west was dyed orange-red, which was extremely gorgeous. The heat of the day had dissipated, and the refreshing wind blew in, giving it a little taste of early autumn.Yuan Yuan stood in the yard, looked up at the sky and clouds above his head, and at the distant mountains of Qingdai in the north, stretched his waist, and felt better. There is no Flaming Mountain in this world that cannot be passed.

Lu Song sat on the windowsill and played the guitar: "Brother Yuan, is your cold better?"

Yuan Yuan smiled at him: "It's much better, thank you."

"Going out?"

"Well, go see a friend." Yuan Yuan said.

"Brother Yuan, I wrote a song, please help me read the lyrics later." Lu Song said.

"Okay, let's talk when we come back." Yuan Yuan went out and arrived at the meeting place according to the address given by Liang Shuoshi. It was very far away, and it took more than two hours to get there.The party was held in a private villa. I thought it was an art salon, but I didn't expect it to be a party. There were not only talented drama actors, but also many graduates from drama schools. With a casual glance, I saw a few people who are often on the big and small screens. The figures that appeared on the screen were all dressed up, and Yuan Yuan, who was wearing a suit and leather shoes and a shirt, looked like a different kind.

Liang Shuo knew that Yuan Yuan would probably run away when he saw the scene, so he had been waiting at the door for a long time, and when he saw him arrive, he took his arm and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time, come quickly."

Yuan Yuan asked in a low voice: "Isn't your troupe gathering, why are there so many people?"

Liang Shuoshi said: "A teacher in the regiment retired, and he is also a teacher in our department. You should also know Mr. Lu Mingguang, right? Today happens to be his 65th birthday. Our brothers and sisters helped him celebrate his birthday, so we got together .”

"I know. Is it Teacher Lu's birthday? Why didn't you tell me earlier that I came empty-handed." Yuan Yuan couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.Lu Mingguang is a famous teacher in the Acting Department of the Drama Academy and a national first-class drama actor. When Yuan Yuan was in school, Mr. Lu also pointed out the stage plays he wrote.

"How can I make you spend money, the teacher loves to drink tea, I brought you a box of tea, you can give it to him later." Liang Shuo really knew the situation of Yuan Yuan's family, so he didn't let him spend money.Yuan Yuan felt more and more embarrassed, and deeply felt that he shouldn't have come.Liang Shuoshi pulled him to go in, but was stopped by someone: "Brother Liang!"

Liang Shuoshi and Yuan Yuan turned their heads and saw Gu Yuren sitting in a wheelchair.Gu Yuren has short hair, a smooth forehead, two sword-shaped eyebrows slanted into the temples, a pair of clear phoenix eyes that are very discerning, a straight penetrating nose, and thin and beautiful lips. A very outstanding face.If a man has phoenix eyes, his eyes are generally very sharp. If his facial features are not good, even his eyes will look ugly. However, Gu Yuren's facial features are just in proportion and shape, which complements the phoenix eyes, so his eyes look extraordinarily handsome and energetic. , Impressive at first sight, but it also makes him not so kind and easy-going.At this moment, the corners of his mouth are slightly raised, and his eyes are smiling, which makes people's heart beat uncontrollably.

Liang Shuoshi laughed, and reached out to pat Gu Yuren's shoulder: "You kid is here too. Teacher Lu was still thinking about you just now. I heard that your injury has healed, why are you still in a wheelchair?"

Gu Yuren waved his hand: "It's nothing serious, I'm just too lazy to walk. Where's Mr. Lu?" The fracture in his left leg has healed, but he can't walk very well. He needs crutches, which look uglier than sitting in a wheelchair, so When going out, use a wheelchair as much as possible.

Liang Shuoshi said: "It's inside. By the way, Yuan Yuan, this is Gu Yuren, do you know him? Yuren, this is Yuan Yuan, a senior who is two years older than you in the Department of Literature."

Because Gu Yuren played the leading role in "Shimmering Light", Yuan Yuan looked at him as if he was looking at his own child, and he warmly extended his hand: "Hello, I am Yuan Yuan, and I am your loyal fan. "

But Gu Yuren didn't seem to see Yuan Yuan's hand. He crossed his hands and put his fingers on his lap, not intending to shake hands with Yuan Yuan at all: "Senior brother Liang, let's go in and visit Teacher Lu."

Yuan Yuan's hand stayed in the air in embarrassment, and Liang Shuoshi also felt embarrassed for him. He didn't expect Gu Yuren to be such a big name, so he grabbed Yuan Yuan's hand and said with a smile: "Come on, let's go to see Teacher Lu. .”

Yuan Yuan didn't know where he had offended Gu Yuren, he withdrew his hand, and watched Gu Yuren's assistant push the wheelchair into the room, many students gathered around, and surrounded the film star classmate tightly.Liang Shuoshi led Yuan Yuan to follow, few people noticed them, Yuan Yuan felt relaxed for a while, no one should have noticed the embarrassing scene just now.

Liang Shuoshi said to Yuan Yuan in a low voice: "That kid Gu Yuren was a young man, he has become more and more arrogant in the past two years, and he has become more and more arrogant. He was better before. Don't worry about it, don't get in a bad mood because of him."

Yuan Yuan's lips were drawn into a line. It would be a lie to say that his mood was not affected. He is not a star chaser, but in his heart, actors who have acted in his own script are naturally different from other actors. Treating Gu Yuren as one of his own, but finding out that he is not even treated like an ordinary fan, let alone the frustration.

Liang Shuoshi said: "Teacher Lu is there!" Lu Mingguang was surrounded by a group of students, who didn't know who said what, and everyone laughed.Lu Mingguang is a respectable person. Whether as a teacher or an actor, he is impeccable. He has worked in the Drama Academy for more than 40 years and has a lot of peaches and plums.He is extremely low-key. This year coincided with his retirement, a group of students took advantage of his birthday to get together and planned to write a play to commemorate him. Many graduates of the acting department rushed over after hearing the news. It's a very good opportunity to socialize, you see, even Gu Yuren, who has never shown his face, came here.

Liang Shuoshi led Yuan Yuan to Lu Mingguang's small circle: "Teacher Lu, take a look, do you remember this student?"

Yuan Yuan bowed to Lu Mingguang: "Mr. Lu, happy birthday! This is my gift to you." He said and handed over the tea box that Liang Shuoshi had stuffed for him.

"Forget it if you come, what gifts do you bring?" Lu Mingguang adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, looked at Yuan Yuan carefully, pointed at him and said, "You are not from the Department of Acting, but Yuan Yuan from the Department of Literature, right?"

Yuan Yuan was both happy and ashamed: "Mr. Lu, it's hard for you to remember me."

Lu Mingguang had a gratified smile on his face: "I remember, why don't I remember. The students are still rehearsing your "Youth Companion" every year, which is very good. How about it, you are still writing scripts these years, what have you written? A new drama?"

Yuan Yuan was even more ashamed: "I don't write much, mainly because I am busy with work." After graduation, many of Yuan Yuan's classmates are sticking to their dream of being a gold medal screenwriter and writing scripts full-time. Now the screenwriting market is getting better, giving screenwriters a lot of living space and opportunities, and the dream does not seem far away.If Yuan Yuan didn't have family troubles, he would be one of them, even if he slept in a bridge cave, drank tap water and ate instant noodles, it didn't matter, and it was nothing to suffer for his dreams.But he has no willful power. He has to solve the problem of survival first. After graduation, he found a planning job. Now he is engaged in corporate image planning in a brand planning company and writing scripts part-time.Even if it is a part-time job, his output is no less than that of a full-time job. After all, screenwriting is his real hobby and dream. Unfortunately, it has not been effective so far.

Lu Mingguang raised his eyes and looked at the student carefully. The expectations in his eyes were no less than when he was in school: "Don't forget your original intention! Teacher, I look forward to seeing your stage play again."

Yuan Yuan nodded vigorously: "I will definitely work hard, thank you for your teaching."

Just as he was talking, people surrounded Gu Yuren and Yuan Yuan quickly stepped aside.Gu Yuren sat in a wheelchair: "Teacher Lu, happy birthday!"

When Lu Mingguang saw Gu Yuren, the smile on his face widened: "Isn't this Gu Yuren? You're here too. Why, the injury hasn't healed yet?"

Gu Yuren hurriedly supported the wheelchair and stood up: "It's much better, teacher. It's just that I can't walk very well." His assistant helped him to the sofa and sat down.

Lu Mingguang said: "You must pay attention to safety, especially when driving and filming, otherwise it will not only affect your own body, but also your work. As an actor, if you delay for a day due to physical reasons, the crew will be fined." To suffer a huge economic loss, we need refreshments."

Gu Yuren nodded obediently: "The teacher is right, I will be more careful in the future. Yijie, bring the box here. Teacher Lu, this is my birthday present for you, a purple sand teapot."

"Come here as soon as you come, and what gifts do you bring? It's too expensive. This kind of atmosphere is not very good. Don't spend so much money in the future." Lu Mingguang was very happy when he said this, and the students knew that they would follow what they liked , As a teacher, how can you not be proud.

Liang Shuoshi saw that the master and apprentice were chatting enthusiastically, so he said to Yuan Yuan: "You haven't eaten dinner yet, there is a buffet here, let's go eat something first, and discuss the script together later." Yuan Yuan nodded, and Liang Shuoshi walked away.Gu Yuren, who was talking to Lu Mingguang, raised his eyes and glanced at the direction Yuan Yuan left.

The buffet was very rich. Although there were many people present, most of the food hadn't been touched. Everyone was busy with socializing, and eating was too late.Yuan Yuan ate two French buns all day, and he was already hungry, so he let go of his stomach and ate it. Anyway, he is not a celebrity who needs to take his image into account, and his host will definitely not care about his meal .When Yuan Yuan went to Sheng Yangzhou Fried Rice for the second time, he heard someone say in a mocking tone: "If you can't even fill your stomach, then what's the poor self-esteem doing here, as a fig leaf?"

Yuan Yuan turned his head and saw that besides Gu Yuren who was sitting in a wheelchair, there was no one else. Did you say this for yourself?What does he mean by this, treating himself as a beggar?Thinking of this, Yuan Yuan slowed down the movement of holding the rice, and straightened his back involuntarily: "Is Mr. Gu talking to me?"

Gu Yuren raised his eyebrows, but did not speak.

Yuan Yuan held the plate: "I don't know where Mr. Gu can tell that I don't even have enough to eat. The food made by the host is for people to eat. Compared with trying to save face, I am more loyal to my true thoughts. If I Gu, I'm really sorry, this is not my intention, if you don't look at me, then you won't see anything." After speaking, he took the plate with a spoonful of fried rice and left.Yuan Yuan was already sure that Gu Yuren was targeting him, how did he offend him.

Gu Yuren silently stared at Yuan Yuan's back, he hated this kind of self-righteous and lofty literati the most, all of them were sharp and sharp like hedgehogs, never willing to take advantage of their mouths, no wonder they were all down and out!
