Euthanasia

Chapter 3

Liu Zhiwei is a young 80th-line actor. Before this incident, he had a good life. If he had a movie to make a few thousand dollars a month, he could live on. If he didn’t make a movie, he could only live on his own money. With his savings, he could rent an [-]-square-meter apartment. The house has degenerated to the point where I can only rent a shared house for less than [-] a month, and I live in a miasma all day long. In order to save money, I can't eat enough.

There are many self-made people like him, but more people change careers midway. He is either incompetent, or he never knows how to plan.He has done all kinds of stand-ins, and after the filming of the movie in which he made the most appearances as a stand-in, someone was very interested in him. smashed.The more times he does it, the older he gets, and not so many people want to praise him.

Like Liu Zhiwei, there is a brother named Pei Ze, who is about the same age as Liu Zhiwei, and has a different appearance and style, but generally speaking, the situation is very similar to Liu Zhiwei.The two of them lived together last year. They got up early and went late every day to go to the film crew. In recent months, they suddenly moved away, saying that they didn't want to do it anymore.

Liu Zhiwei persisted for so many years with only one partner by his side, but even this partner had to change careers. At that moment, he was at a loss, disappointed, and depressed.What's more, I hate myself for being weak.

He is different from Pei Ze. Pei Ze is younger than him. Although he dropped out of school early, he has good grades in school and learned a lot. It is easy to find a relevant job that can earn a living. But Liu Zhiwei, Liu Zhiwei is a graduate , the acting he has been learning all along, he knows nothing except acting, but it is a pity that he can't do it this way. I don't know why, but his classmates are getting ahead one by one, but he is getting worse and worse, and he has fallen to where he is today.

If he hadn't retreated, Liu Zhiwei would have wanted to change his career a long time ago.

Pei Ze asked him back then: "Even if an adult has never been to school, he can always find a part-time job. It's a lot of money to deliver food and be a shopping guide. Why do you have to waste time here?"

Liu Zhiwei couldn't answer.After being awakened by Pei Ze, Liu Zhiwei realized that he really didn't want to leave this business.

It's just that it's useless for him to regret it now. He doesn't look like Pei Ze's popular flowery boy type, nor is he a steel tough guy's muscular type. There are not too many characteristics in the circle, but they are better-looking than ordinary people, they are good-looking, their eyes are more energetic, and they look trendy when dressed.The rest is nothing special.Every time Liu Zhiwei sees himself in the mirror, he regrets thinking that he can't rely on his face to make a living, and his strength is not good enough, so why do he continue to stay in this industry?After criticizing himself every time, Liu Zhiwei went to the production team in high spirits again.

It's not that he is not discouraged, but that he really wants to act.

Even the anti-Japanese drama is able to play the one-third of the woodwork by lying on the ground as cannon fodder.

The day those foreigners came to him happened to be the day when Liu Zhiwei used up his last savings in his bank card.He was desperate on the street with his card, which only had a few cents, and he didn't know whether to continue to hang out with the film crew, or just let it go, and find a job with a daily salary to eat.

Even the dish cleaners in the restaurant next to Hengdian can earn fifty or sixty yuan a day.

Liu Zhiwei was sitting on the side of the street, and a woman with big wavy blue eyes stood in front of him.There are a lot of international friends near the film and television city, Liu Zhiwei is not good at English but can communicate easily, just about to say "Can I help you", the other party said in a slightly changed Chinese: "Hello, are you Mr. Liu Zhiwei? "

Liu Zhiwei was stunned immediately.

When he walked out of the high-end restaurant, he was still top-heavy, dangling around with documents and a new bank card, as if he was drunk.

After returning home, Liu Zhiwei fell down and fell asleep.As a result, when I woke up the next morning, I found that the files and cards were still there, and it was not a dream.

"...Damn it." Liu Zhiwei stared at the thing in his hand and let out a sigh of emotion.

For the next two days, Liu Zhiwei was a little worried about gains and losses. After all, he was a poor and white man who had never seen so much money on a bank card that he knew the password, so he dared not use it.What made him worry about gains and losses was that Da Bo said that the man named Jon would be sent to China for treatment soon, and then he would have to start fulfilling the contract.

Liu Zhiwei was very afraid that this was a trap or a reality show variety show. Some cameras would pop up at any time and tell him that it was not true, so he tensed for several days, and finally confirmed that this was not a reality show.

So the question is, who is Jon Williams?

Liu Zhiwei read the contract repeatedly for two days and typed the name on the computer.

— Jon Williams.

Liu Zhiwei was instantly dumbfounded by the character entries pulled out by Encyclopedia.

No, definitely not him.Liu Zhiwei thought.There are so many names in China, but there are only a few names in foreign countries, and there are even more people with the same name.

He rummaged through the search software, and all the people who jumped out were the person from Encyclopedia, young entrepreneurs, young ten richest people, leading figures in the IT industry, and Prince William's best friend...

joke.

Liu Zhiwei scoffed.It's definitely not this person, maybe it's someone like him who can't be found by searching on the Internet-oh no, there are too many results, but none of them are actor Liu Zhiwei.

Liu Zhiwei brushed his hair and was in a daze for a while, when the phone rang.He looked down and saw that his former manager, Brother Hu, signed the contract last month and did not renew it.

People come in and out every day in the entertainment industry, there are only a few big names, and there are many small fish like them.So many small fish also need to be managed. Some brokers do this. They bring over when they see a little bit of potential. Termination of the contract, anyway, you can make a profit without losing money, not in quality but in quantity.

When Liu Zhiwei connected, he called out, "Brother Hu."

Brother Hu said: "Zhiwei, do you think your contract will be renewed?"

It has been a month since the contract was terminated, and Liu Zhiwei just smiled.He was still a little hesitant, afraid that without this agent, he would really lose the chance to audition for a small supporting role.But when he thought about the past ten years, it was almost as good as not having it. From the beginning to the end, there were only two or three serious audition opportunities, and he was screwed up.

The picture of the man named Jon Williams on the computer screen in front of Liu Zhiwei's eyes finally said: "No more brother Hu, thank you for taking care of me for so many years."

The other end didn't say much when he heard this, and hung up after a few casual instructions. Liu Zhiwei hung up the phone as if he had completely hung up on his past and dreams, and was very depressed for a moment.But God didn't let him have time to continue to be depressed. Not long after he hung up the phone, another call came in.Liu Zhiwei saw that the source indicated the United States, and his first reaction was that he pressed the button for fraud. After pressing it, he suddenly realized that he might indeed have received a call from the United States!

The phone rang again, and this time Liu Zhiwei picked it up in a hurry, carefully listening to the voice on the other end of the microphone: "...Hello? Hello?"

"I'm Shanna, Mr. Liu?" Shanna's voice came from the other end.

"Yes, yes, I am..." Liu Zhiwei began to feel unreal again.

"Jon's plane yesterday should have arrived in China today. If you are free, please pick him up to the hospital. His family members need to sign for admission." Shanna said politely.

Liu Zhiwei was still a little sluggish, but was reminded by Shanna and quickly reacted: "Okay, what time will you be there?"

Shanna reported the time, address and flight number, and Liu Zhiwei went out with his coat before he even had time to say goodbye to his old business.

Liu Zhiwei has never been to the airport a few times in his life, and the last time he came was to pick up Brother Hu.What's funny is that he, an actor, has to pick up his agent.This time, he was quite familiar with the way. Before he left, he hesitated for a while whether to hold up a sign, and after thinking about it, he should call the number Shanna left when the time comes.

In the early morning of winter, there were not many people at the airport. Liu Zhiwei huddled in his down jacket, wrapped the lower half of his face with a scarf, leaving only two eyes outside, with no image at all.

The flight he was going to pick up had already landed, but it was still half an hour before they came out. Liu Zhiwei took out a small pack of cigarettes from his pocket, just put it in his mouth, and after thinking about it, he still stuffed it in.

— At any rate, I saw a patient.

Not long after, there were more people in the airport. Liu Zhiwei heard his mobile phone ringing, and he picked it up without looking at it. He only heard a middle-aged male voice on the opposite side say in Chinese: "Mr. Liu?"

"Hey, it's me," Liu Zhiwei said quickly, "I'm waiting at the exit."

The middle-aged male voice said immediately, "Master Williams and I will come out immediately."

Liu Zhiwei was stunned for a moment, thinking about the title "Master" in his mind, and then guessing whether it was a Chinese or a foreigner on the other end of the phone, but he couldn't figure it out, so he had to wait.

Not long after, I saw a large army come out, Liu Zhiwei didn't need to distinguish, a single bed, on which lay a man whose face could not be seen clearly, surrounded by several medical staff, and a few men in suits and leather shoes The men were in charge of dispersing the crowd. The front one was a middle-aged man with half-white hair. He looked around with sharp eyes. Liu Zhiwei realized in an instant that he was looking for him, and hurried forward and said, "Hello, I, I am Liu Zhiwei."

The opponent's lineup is too strong, and Liu Zhiwei lacks confidence.

The middle-aged man couldn't tell whether he was a Chinese or a foreigner. His hair and eyes were black, his skin was neither yellow nor white, and his outline was very deep, but it was not enough to tell the depth of European and American races at a glance.He stared at Liu Zhiwei, Liu Zhiwei quickly reacted and took off his scarf and hat.As soon as the hat was taken off, his hair was messed up, and he showed a silly and embarrassed smile and said, "Sorry, it's a bit cold."

The middle-aged man stretched out his hand: "Hi, I'm Lu Yi, Master Williams' personal assistant."

Liu Zhiwei nodded again and again, not even daring to look at the person on the bed. After shaking hands, he turned around and said, "I'm going to contact the 120 car now..."

"No need, we've already contacted you." Lu Yi said as he directed the large troops to go out.Liu Zhiwei was stunned for a moment, and quickly followed them. A Mercedes-Benz minibus had already parked outside, and several medical staff lifted the hospital bed and the unconscious man onto it.

Liu Zhiwei stood under the car in a daze, Lu Yi opened the car door for him and said, "Please."

It wasn't until Liu Zhiwei got into the car and sat side by side with Lu Yi that Lu Yi began to look at Liu Zhiwei normally.Contrary to his impression, Liu Zhiwei's name is vulgar and old-fashioned, but he doesn't look that bad.He is not short, even if he shrinks his neck, he can tell that he is about 1.7 meters [-]. His face is very young, like a young man who has just entered the society.

He may be a little inferior and often dare not look people in the eye, but he can make people feel amazing when he raises his eyes once in a while.Those eyes are very good-looking, a little narrow and long, and they are big, looking very energetic.

I don't know if it's because he buried his face, or because the actors here have small faces. Liu Zhiwei's face is not big, and the overall proportions are very slender. If it is taller, it looks like a nine-headed model with perfect proportions.

Lu Yi knew his background. Such conditions were above average in the Chinese entertainment circle, so he shouldn't be unknown. I don't know why he was reduced to the point of nowhere.

Liu Zhiwei just wanted to escape at the moment.He had never been stared at like this before, as if interrogating a prisoner.He asked somewhat unnaturally: "Lu, is Mr. Lu Chinese?"

The atmosphere in the carriage relaxed, and Lu Yi said, "Yes, but I grew up in Seattle when I was a child, and I returned to China when I became an adult. Later, I became Master Williams' assistant and went back and forth between the two countries one after another."

Liu Zhiwei just asked casually, afraid of touching some politically sensitive topic, but he didn't expect Lu Yi to confide his experience all over with one mouth, which made Liu Zhiwei not know what to answer for a while.

He had no choice but to reciprocate and say: "I have been living in China, and entered the entertainment industry after graduating from university..."

"I know." Lu Yi interrupted him, causing Liu Zhiwei to almost bite his tongue, "You recently refused to renew your contract with your agent, and you have no relevant plans in the next three years."

Liu Zhiwei's face almost twitched. He suspected that someone had installed a bug in his mobile phone.

"Don't worry, I learned all this from your original manager." Lu Yi seemed to know what he was thinking. "In the future, I will also handle your private affairs. It is my responsibility to know all your movements."

Liu Zhiwei forgot to be afraid, and stared at Lu Yi as if he wanted to ask for an explanation.

"You are now the husband of Master Williams. You can ask me for any needs you have. I will meet all your reasonable and not excessive needs, including your employment, entertainment, and family..."

Lu Yi didn't continue talking, he paused and said, "Here we are."

Sure enough, the car stopped next to the hospital.

He opened the car door and led a group of people into the hospital. Liu Zhiwei still remembered that he had to sign as a family member, so he followed Lu Yi all the way to watch him register, arrange wards, swipe cards and other matters.Where Lu Yi needed his signature, Liu Zhiwei hurried forward. When everything was settled, it was already afternoon.

Lu Yi wanted to invite Liu Zhiwei to eat in a nearby restaurant, but Liu Zhiwei quickly refused, claiming that he was not hungry and wanted to see the patient first.

Lu Yi looked at him for a while, and then accompanied Liu Zhiwei into the ward. Only then did Liu Zhiwei truly see his legal husband in name.

A man with light brown hair, deep profile, high nose, obviously a foreigner.His hair was a little long and a little dry, and it was scattered on the pillow like weeds.His face was pale and his brows were furrowed, as if he had slept restlessly.

Liu Zhiwei looked at his legs subconsciously.She was covered by a quilt, so she couldn't see her, but she could see her hands. The arms were long, the palms were big, and there were infusion tubes on the back of the hands.

Liu Zhiwei thought that this group of foreigners would be a lot of trouble, tossing an unconscious patient back and forth, and he was not afraid of letting go on the way.He thought so, but he didn't say it.He came to the other side's bed and pulled a stool to sit down, looked carefully for a while, then turned to Lu Yi and said, "When will he wake up?"

Liu Zhiwei actually wanted to avoid the time when the other party woke up, so as to make up for the five hours a day without anyone noticing. Unexpectedly, at this time, the person on the bed groaned, frowned and opened his eyes.

Liu Zhiwei turned his head abruptly, stared at the other party with wide eyes, and looked into a pair of squinted green eyes at a glance.

Liu Zhiwei was speechless again. He stared at the other person, and saw that person raised his hand and kneaded his brows, and growled hoarsely: "WhereamI..."

Liu Zhiwei showed an embarrassing and stiff smile that was definitely not warm: "...China."

The author has something to say:

Jon: Where am I?

Liu Zhiwei: Paradise.

Jon: who are you?

Liu Zhiwei: Jesus.
