I have something to tell you

Lu Jingsheng asked Xiao Shen to open two coconuts, insert a straw and hold one in each hand, and walked into the tube building.

Ye Xiaojun's eyes were uncomfortable, and he still had a foreign body sensation before, and he got used to the grinding of his eyeballs.I have never had time to go to the hospital, but now my vision has become blurred, and I can’t see things clearly after reading scripts or mobile phones for a long time. I feel sore and painful. I bought eye drops and keep them with me. I drop them every few minutes, but I don’t feel tired at all. Can relieve.

It was too lively outside, Ye Xiaojun would rather stay and rest with his eyes closed for a while.

Before the film crew moved in, this tube building was a family building of an old state-owned factory. After the old factory closed down, the residents moved out one after another.For a long time, it was overgrown with weeds and deserted.Everyone thought that this place was abandoned and no one was there. A few years ago, a film crew was going to come here to film a movie. The construction team came in and found that there were still two families inside.One of these two families is a middle-aged man suffering from mental illness who lives alone, and the other is a dumb girl who cannot speak and a little girl with mental retardation.These two families lived at the two ends of the Tongzilou, one east and the other west. They usually didn't go out, and they didn't find each other for so many years.

The crew paid for them to temporarily resettle them out, repair and renovate the old building, and pick them up to continue living after filming.By the time the crew of "Floating Life" arrived, the two families had already become one family, living in a dilapidated house in the farthest corner of the east, which was still some distance from the filming location.Jiang Xiaofu thought that they were almost invisible in the house, so they should not interfere with the shooting, so she didn't bother.

The tube building is very wide and has four floors. Hundreds of families once lived here.After years of baptism, the walls are covered with ivy.The crew repainted the exterior walls and replaced all the glass. Only a few broken windows were left for the film to create a sense of the times.

The structure of the building is simple, a corridor leading to the end, with concrete stairs on both sides, a large row of iron windows on the left side of the corridor, and the green-painted wooden doors of the residents on the right side.

Lu Jingsheng walked around the building and finally found Ye Xiaojun.Ye Xiaojun leaned on an old rattan chair in the corridor and closed his eyes, as if falling asleep.Lu Jingsheng slowed down, and the sound of high heels hitting the ground became extremely gentle.

The sun fell on Ye Xiaojun's left shoulder, illuminating her white polo shirt brightly.She casually tied her long hair behind her head, and some strands of hair stuck to her forehead with some sweat.

I don't know what dream she had, she frowned slightly, her thin lips, which were always tightly pressed, were slightly parted, and her white front teeth were faintly visible.

Thinking of her crying silently by the Erhai Lake, Lu Jingsheng stood in front of her and did not wake her up, looking at her face quietly.

A rush of footsteps came from upstairs, accompanied by a rough reprimand: "I told you to carry the prop bicycle down earlier, you didn't hear it? Can you still do it? It's such a hot day, in case you delay the shooting schedule You just wait to die!"

Ye Xiaojun was startled by the sudden sound and opened his eyes.

Lu Jingsheng was only two steps away from her, and she didn't show a trace of panic when she met Ye Xiaojun's astonished face. She held up the coconut in her hand at this distance, and said with a smile, "I've been looking for you for a long time, so I'm sleeping here. The screenwriter is very tired." Right? Quench your thirst first to cool off the heat, don’t get too hot.”

Ye Xiaojun straightened his body, his astonished expression turned into doubt, and soon returned to his usual serious expression, took a coconut and said, "Thank you, Boss Lu."

Lu Jingsheng dragged a coconut, looked around but couldn't find a chair: "Hey, there's not even a place to sit."

Ye Xiaojun stood up: "Sit down."

"No, you're welcome, just sit down."

"Sit down, I'm leaving."

Lu Jingsheng choked for a moment: "...you come back, I have something to tell you."

Ye Xiaojun turned around, and Lu Jingsheng took a sip of coconut juice: "What's the matter, you, every time you see me, you run away in a hurry, are you so afraid of me?"

Ye Xiaojun didn't speak.

"Come, sit here." Lu Jingsheng pulled the wicker chair in front of her, "I'm talking to you about something serious. I've read the script of "Xing Huo" written by you, and I want to make this into a movie."

Ye Xiaojun stood by the rattan chair, and the two stood facing each other holding a coconut. Ye Xiaojun looked at Lu Jingsheng, who was wearing high heels and was a head taller than her, with a moved expression: "Have you watched "Xing Huo"? Do you really want to shoot ?”

Lu Jingsheng found that Ye Xiaojun usually had no expression on his face, and only when the script was mentioned would he mobilize her facial nerves: "Yes, it would be a loss if such a good script is not shot. I have been watching movies from various countries since I was a teenager. And the script, I dare not say that I have read countless films, but I still have the vision to pick out a good script. How did you think of writing this script?"

Ye Xiaojun: "When I first saw this social news, I went to interview the person concerned."

"So this is still based on real events?"

"Ah."

"Very good, this can also be used as a publicity stunt... Hey, do you think I'm too worried? I've even thought about the publicity." Lu Jingsheng took a sip of coconut juice, "This damn place , It's really hot... Isn't it just a domestic violence murderer? The final ending may have to be slightly changed, and an open ending is guaranteed to pass the trial."

"But the ending..."

"Also, the heroine can't be in her 40s. Audiences don't like to see protagonists in this age group. Change the age of the character to a younger one. Just be in her 20s."

Ye Xiaojun said firmly: "The reason why the heroine is set to be in her 40s is based on the facts, and also in consideration of the protagonist's personality. She must be oppressed for a long time to lead to the extreme result of killing people. If she is only in her 20s little girl..."

Lu Jingsheng waved her hand: "This is not the point. The most important thing is to get the audience to buy it. It's easier to choose a role. You can choose a popular one to play. The box office is the key."

Hearing this, Ye Xiaojun understood that Lu Jingsheng was no different from her previous supervisor and boss.They are all businessmen.

"Also, the name Xinghuo is too connotative. At first glance, it doesn't seem clear what kind of movie it is. This has to be changed. What new and eye-catching elements are there recently? For example, Xiaosan? Yes, just Xiaosan. You Think about it, why does the heroine domestically abuse the heroine? Apart from his own character flaws, could it also be because he has a mistress and wants to divorce the heroine but the heroine refuses? Besides, the hero beat her like this, she I also have to find someone to soothe my wounded heart, the male number two can also be added, and it would be nice to just play the role of a warm man, right? You..."

Ye Xiaojun interrupted her weakly: "Boss Lu, if you want a script like this, you can find any screenwriter and rewrite it. The protagonist can be as young as you want, and you can have as many mistresses as you want."

Lu Jingsheng: "..."

Ye Xiaojun: "Goodbye."

Ye Xiaojun left as soon as he said that, but Lu Jingsheng watched her go downstairs and didn't intend to call her.

The sun hangs in the clear blue sky that can only be seen in film. The white clouds are like milk that has been knocked over and wiped a few times casually. A few light white traces float in the sky, as if they are about to be evaporated by the sun.

The round coconut is still in the hand, and the fresh coconut fragrance is exuded from the opened hole.Lu Jingsheng stood by the window and looked down. Ye Xiaojun walked out of the building without looking back, walking straight.

The acquisition of Bozhan was handled by Lu Jingsheng. At that time, she had already investigated more than 100 employees of the company one by one.Screening out those who are incompetent and incompetent is just a hand job, and she does the most homework on skilled craftsmen.

The backlog of scripts in Bo Zhan is not small. She didn't hold out too much hope, but she read them one by one. Ye Xiaojun's scripts really attracted her.This is a young and talented screenwriter.

After watching "Floating Life", Lu Jingsheng deliberately found her other scripts. "Fire" did not disappoint her, but as a project that needs to be profitable, there are still many things that need to be changed.I didn't expect this screenwriter to be quite proud.

However, she didn't throw away the coconut that was given to her.

Ye Xiaojun just walked a few steps in the sun, and the top of his head was scalding hot.The eyes are dry and sore, and can hardly be opened under strong light.She went back to her residence to take a little rest.

hum.

The phone vibrated, and she took it out to see the push of a new email.

The inexplicable email bearxxx who had been quiet for a while appeared again.

Ye Xiaojun's heart skipped a beat. She was the only one in the quiet hotel corridor, and a layer of cold sweat crawled up her back. After hesitating for a while, she clicked on the email.

What weird things will happen this time?

Sender: bearxxx Content: I have something to tell you, in the near future, you will be with Lu Jingsheng.

Ye Xiaojun thought that his eyesight was wrong, and looked at the phone screen several times, but it was still the same line.

"Go away, who wants to be with that profiteer!"

Ye Xiaojun replied angrily. The moment she clicked "Send", she seemed to understand something.

The sender of this email is actually Lu Jingsheng!

Otherwise, why did Lu Jingsheng happen to be there when she broke up with Gu Lan?Afterwards, the initiative to be promoted for a while was also in her hands, and now she was announced to be next to her... Ye Xiaojun couldn't help but sneer.

But after thinking about it, before and after breaking up with Gu Lan, she and Lu Jingsheng were ordinary strangers. What is the purpose of doing this?Just to keep Ye Xiaojun in a tight circle so that she can make a movie according to her intention?

The world is big, and there are so many famous screenwriters, why bother for a small screenwriter who won't be able to produce a play in a few years?

If this was really planned by Lu Jingsheng, then she might really have to doubt Lu Jingsheng's mental state.

Ye Xiaojun was still thinking, but bearxxx actually replied to her.

Sender: bearxxx Content: It seems that you still don't believe it.Your current watch is Longines?

Seeing this, Ye Xiaojun subconsciously glanced at the Longines on his left wrist, and turned his gaze back.

What: You'll be switching to Cartier soon.

how is this possible.

She has been wearing this Longines watch for more than five years. It was given to her by her best friend in the year of birth, and it has a red string on her left wrist.She and her best friend each have one of this Longines, and they agreed to change it together if they want to change it in the future.She will never change this watch for anything.

Holding the phone, she walked into the house and raised her hand to open the door.She had something on her mind, so she moved a little harder. The gap between the strap and her wrist was caught by the doorknob. She twisted it, and the strap fell off, and the whole watch fell to the marble floor. Ye Xiaojun was stunned.

The watch is broken.

Ye Xiaojun stared blankly at the incomplete and still watch at his feet. Life was like this watch. It was once familiar and used to it, but now it looked strange and terrifying.

Ye Xiaojun didn't come for the afternoon shoot, the shoot went smoothly, and the director didn't look for her. Lu Jingsheng was sitting in a cool place, wearing sunglasses, eating fruit and watching.

When work was over at [-] o'clock in the evening, Lu Jingsheng asked Jiang Xiaofu: "Where is the screenwriter Ye?"

Jiang Xiaofu is working with the production director to determine tomorrow's plan, because the actors are not in place, and the content of tomorrow's shooting has changed and I haven't confirmed it with Director Zheng. Right now, Director Zheng doesn't know where he is going.It was the time when she was overwhelmed, and Jiang Xiaofu was in an impetuous mood——Ye Xiaojun has always gone her own way, and someone who can shut herself up at home for more than a month, who knows where she went!But when the big boss asked, Jiang Xiaofu had no choice but to suppress her anger and answer: "Xiaojun? I didn't see her, and she didn't come all afternoon. Did you feel unwell and went to rest?"

Lu Jingsheng nodded slightly, and Jiang Xiaofu saw her standing where she was, and the crew had dispersed, so she remembered: "Boss Lu, where are you staying tonight?"

Lu Jingsheng said: "I live with your crew."

Jiang Xiaofu put down the things in her hand and said: "Live with us? You don't know that crappy hotel... how can it be called a hotel? It's just a guest house. You must not be used to it. Why don't you stay until 40 In Qucheng, a kilometer away, there is a pretty good hotel there. Why don’t you go and live there, it’s better than here.”

Xiao Shen, Lu Jingsheng's assistant, followed up and said, "Boss Lu, I went to see the place where the crew lived, and it was small and broken. Sister Jiang is right. I'll take you to Qucheng. At least there is a three-star hotel that can pay for it." one time."

"Yes, don't offend you."

Lu Jingsheng was more and more annoyed by what they said: "What's the matter, you can all live here, but I can't? I will live here tonight."

Jiang Xiaofu and Xiao Shen looked at each other silently, both of them were terrified.

"Little Fu." Lu Jingsheng asked, "Are there any rooms in that guest house?"

"Yes." Jiang Xiaofu decided to follow Lafayette's wishes to live longer, "It's on the top floor, next to Xiaojun. That room has air conditioning, a big bed room!"

"Ye Xiaojun?" Lu Jingsheng sneered, "Okay, this is the room."
