Chapter 8: No Way

"So, what do you think about what happened to him, suicide and amnesia?" came the hoarse and lazy voice of his best friend Wu Xiuchu in the Bluetooth headset.

The sunset still had the last bright red afterglow, Yan Yingzhen's white hand rested on the railing, pillowed on her arm, and that bit of afterglow shone on her face, making her look like a mythical goddess.

She lazily looked at the garden below the balcony, her arched body like a cat, sexy and soft.

The winter garden is so withered, there are no green leaves, delicate flowers, and green grass.

But in that branch, in that soil, there is a majestic vitality that is accumulating strength and preparing to flourish.

"I didn't think much of it, I just didn't expect him to be so fragile that he would commit suicide. Yan Yingzhen said.

"Hey, you're too cold, aren't you? ”

A sneer appeared on Yan Yingzhen's cold face: "At that time, I was too young to fall in love with that kind of person dizzily." Although he is a little talented, he is arrogant, conceited, willful, vulgar, abusive, and shameless......"

Wu Xiuchu chuckled and said, "Come on, who was going to die or live in front of me back then." ”

Yan Yingzhen frowned, and was about to refute, when a small figure ran out of the house and jumped onto the balcony.

This is a little girl carved in pink, six or seven years old, with two little pigtails, as delicate and beautiful as a porcelain doll.

She flashed her big eyes that seemed to be able to speak, and her long eyelashes twitched slightly, "Mom, Mom, can you buy me a mobile phone?"

Yan Yingzhen said lightly: "Why." ”

The little girl said in a milky voice, "Because I want to call my father." ”

"When you're older, I'll buy you a phone. Now, go and practice, for an hour. Yan Yingzhen's voice was flat, but resolute.

The little girl pursed her lips and ran back into the house with a thud.

Yan Yingzhen retracted her gaze and said to her best friend, "That was a long time ago. ”

Wu Xiuchu said: "I don't believe that you don't have any affection for him." ”

Yan Yingzhen could feel that her best friend was pouting.

"Maybe there is, maybe not, it doesn't matter," after a pause, Yan Yingzhen continued, "The important thing is that for such a cowardly person who chooses to commit suicide, for a person who has lost his memory, who may have forgotten me and Cai Wei, I will not stop and turn to look at him." ”

......

"Zongheng Film and Television Entertainment Company".

Du Caige sat on a bench in the hall, holding a thick stack of shooting plans, scripts, and storyboards in his left hand, and holding a disposable teacup that had already been renewed six or seven or eight or nine times in his right hand.

His gaze had become glazed.

Looking out the window, it was about to get dark.

At this time, a woman in an OL uniform who looked to be in her 20s and less than 30 hurriedly walked by with a document bag in her hand.

Du Caige jumped up as if he had a spring on his buttocks, and rushed in front of the woman with an arrow step, scaring the woman into discoloration.

The security guard next to him was eyeing him with his hands on his baton.

Du Caige didn't care about the security guard's reaction, and looked eagerly at this woman with a bit of beauty: "Manager Li, may I ask, is Mr. Cai willing to see me?"

The woman's eyes flickered for a moment, and then showed a look of sudden realization, as if she finally remembered who Du Caige was.

"I'm sorry," she said in a Beijing accent, "Mr. Cai is really busy now, why don't you go back and wait for news first!"

"Please arrange for me to meet with Mr. Cai! I'm really good at making movies, and I have good ideas, you can take a look at my script!" Du Cai singer hurriedly wanted to hand over the script, but the other party didn't want to take it at all, so he hid vigorously.

"This gentleman ......"

"My surname is Du. ”

The woman had a smirk on her face, "Which film and television university did you graduate from?"

"Well, I'm from the Modu Conservatory. Du Caige said embarrassedly, he didn't dare to say that he didn't have a graduation certificate, only a graduation certificate.

The woman continued to smirk: "May I ask what representative works do you have?"

“...... Not at the moment. ”

"Mr. Du, that's right," the woman has good skills, maintaining a relatively perfect smirk, but gradually becoming a little impatient, "Our company has a director support program, and amateur directors can also participate, you can consider participating in this program." For details, please visit our website and submit your own short film after registration. Once approved, our company will consider giving 10-500,000 yuan of financial support to help you shoot an online movie. ”

Du Caige's hand froze in midair.

Do you want him to make a short film with the youngest director of the Billion Club in Huaxia? participate in the director support program? In order to get 10-500,000 yuan of support funds to make shoddy online movies?

Well, Du Caige didn't feel that this was an insult to himself.

After all, in this world, he is just a nobody.

However, he really didn't have time to go through such a long process......

Du Caige exhaled heavily, maintained his dignity and decency, and smiled: "Manager Li, thank you very much." I know it's my request that is too difficult. ”

"You're welcome. The woman surnamed Li smiled and looked Du Caige up and down a few times, feeling a little amazing and a little familiar.

Of course, she thought about it for a while, and couldn't remember where she had seen this person. Maybe he looks a little like a star?

Watching handsome guys always makes people feel happy, and she has a good impression of Du Caige.

"Are you interested in being an actor? Our company recently wants to develop a batch of contracted group performances, if you are interested, I can recommend you to audition. If you are selected, you will have a good income, and there will be a special teacher to teach you acting lessons. ”

"Thank you, no need," Du Caige thanked politely, "Just say this to you, if there is still an intersection in the future, there is a place where I can help, just ask." ”

Do you want your help? Looking at Du Caige's clothes and accessories of low-end brands, the woman surnamed Li smiled politely: "Certainly, definitely." ”

......

On the way back to the community by subway, Du Caige thought to himself that in a short period of time, it should not be feasible to return to the old business.

Although there are many differences between this blue star world and the earth, there are many popular masterpieces, film and television works that have not appeared.

For him, it's like walking on a diamond-covered beach, leaning over to pick it at will, it's all a classic.

However, the original owner does not have a serious film and television learning background, so why should he fool investors into investing money?

In the past few days, he has run no less than ten film and television companies in the magic city.

As a result, when others hear about his graduation school, they are "hehe", "I don't see", "you go".

That's pretty polite.

Some people directly said: "If you want to cheat money, you will also go to the music company to cheat! If you look for us to shoot film and television, you are on the wrong set." ”

In his last life, Du Caige graduated with a master's degree from the directing department of Beijing Film with excellent grades, and he has a unique understanding of films; he has a brother who is particularly eloquent to run back and forth for him and help him attract investment; he is lucky to meet an investor who is willing to give him a chance; and he also happens to meet a very suitable producer.

A variety of factors came together to get him his first investment, make a small-budget but box office blockbuster movie, and then rise quickly.

But in Azure Star, I'm afraid it's hard to replicate.

After all, he is not good at words, he doesn't know how to socialize, and he doesn't have a beautiful resume, so where can he fool people into investing in him?

Some of the online novels and entertainment articles he has read are actually not suitable for him to use.

He would only sit silently outside the investor's office with a disposable paper cup, and sit in the reception chair of the other person......

However, 9 million will be repaid in the near future, and more than 30 million will be repaid in the future.

If you don't make a movie, what will you pay back?

I can only make movies.

It is impossible to work part-time, and it is impossible to work in this life. Doing business doesn't. You can only make movies to barely make ends meet.

Now that there are no investors who have invested money to make movies for him, Du Caige really can't think of any way to make money for a while.

The world has not yet given birth to WeChat, and there should be a way to make money.

But I don't know how to write code myself. And doing WeChat also needs to pull investment and burn money.

Speculating on stocks? That's funny. This is not the Earth. It's a different world. The stock market will move differently.

With your own vision, invest in a few companies that may become popular in the future? For example, the Azure Star version of Facebook, YouTube? Heheda, do you have the money to invest.

And there are not many creative companies like Facebook and YouTube on the earth, and the companies that can survive are not only creative, but also related to the company's founders, managers, and technical teams.

Du Caige scratched his head in annoyance.

Out of the subway station, Du Caige finally thought of a way.

The person who came to collect the debt that day vaguely said that he had something of value on hand.

But I didn't see it myself.

Perhaps, it was hidden in that locked room.

It is also possible that it was kept in a bank safe.

Then tomorrow pry open the room and check it, and if you don't find it, go to each bank and ask the original owner if he has deposited anything in the bank safe.

By the way, he took some cash, he was almost out of money for food.

These few days can't be regarded as in vain, at least let yourself understand that this road is not working.

Next, change direction and work hard!

Du Caige lowered his head and quickly returned to the community, came to the overhead floor of the unit building, and pressed the elevator.

After a while, there was a "ding" sound, and the elevator arrived.

Back in the community, when he came to the unit where he lived, Du Caige walked in with his head down and pressed "5".

The house has only 8 floors, but the upper three floors are duplexes, so the floors are quite high, so an elevator is installed.

The elevator door was slowly closing, when suddenly a figure rushed over, trying to reach out an arm to stop the elevator door.
