"What?"

A taxi stopped, the rat opened the door, and Li Yao followed in.

"Master, hotel station, quick!"

Although Li Yao felt that this matter was very sudden, the rat's appearance seemed to be a little too flustered.

"Just wait a while, don't worry. ”

The mouse frowned, rubbing his hand nervously on the trouser tube: "Hey, you don't understand. After speaking, he took out his mobile phone again, made a call, and shouted as soon as he answered it:

"Wang Linru, how did you do it, why did my mother run out?!"

"Then you can't follow?!"

"Don't talk to me about this, I'll sue you, if something goes wrong with my mother this time, I'm not done with you!"

Then, without waiting for the other party to react, he pressed it.

Li Yao suddenly felt that the mouse was a little unfamiliar, of course, everyone had a side that was not revealed, and he also understood.

The mouse began to rub his pants again, noticed that Li Yao was looking at him, and smiled reluctantly: "That is my fiancée just now, who has been taking care of my mother, my mother is not in good health, heart disease, I don't know why she has to come to see me this time." ”

After all, it was someone's family matter, and Li Yao didn't say much about it, so he only nodded. Soon the car arrived at the drop-off point at the intersection of Kangzhuang South Road, and the mouse hurriedly stuffed the money and got out of the car, and turned around and instructed Li Yao:

"Brother, don't ask too much right away, don't be surprised, just cooperate with me, you know?"

"No problem. ”

Although Li Yao was mentally prepared, he was still quite surprised when he saw the mouse and his mother. The rat should be in his twenties, but his mother looks like she is seventy or eighty, if he didn't know that it was his mother, Li Yao would definitely think that this was the mouse's grandmother or grandmother.

The old man, like all old men, had brown skin, a wrinkled face, age spots, loose flesh, and cloudy eyes that were squeezed small and deep. She smiled, with a snakeskin pocket at her feet, a basket in her hand, and a small bright red fanny pack around her waist.

The rat rushed over to take the basket in two steps, and his expression was angry and aggrieved: "What are you doing here, Mom!"

The old man slapped the mouse's hand with his own hand, unable to speak, just laughing, and then made a series of gestures.

Mouse: "What can I do, how old am I, alas!"

This sentence is a dialect, but the dialect of Linyi is similar to the Northeast dialect, and it is not difficult to understand. The mother of the mouse should not be able to speak, skilled in sign language, and have an apologetic smile on her face.

"When did you still ask me to go back to filming, I'm not busy, alas, I'm really not busy, I didn't lie to you last time, I'm really filming, right, Xiaoli?" The mouse turned his head and winked at Li Yao.

Li Yao: "Yes, Auntie, he has been filming recently, but the crew has just started filming, so there is nothing for us, don't worry"

The mouse stared at him nervously, for fear that he would leak his mouth, and as soon as he heard him confirm it, he immediately cut off the words: "Anyway, go to my place and settle down first, let's go." ”

When she arrived at the residence, the old man looked up at the house with a satisfied expression, and the mouse was talking to her, and motioned to Li Yao to look at the phone with his hand behind his back.

Li Yao opened his mobile phone and saw that the mouse had sent him a message at some point:

"If my mother knows that I'm a trick that is difficult to even get on camera, it'll be over, she always thought I was a director, understand, brother, cooperate!"

He made an OK gesture to the mouse, and the mouse's mother went around the room, and then hurriedly opened the bag as if she remembered something, and a complicated earthy smell came to his face, and there were all kinds of dishes that Li Yao didn't recognize, and a rooster that was tied up very tightly and stared dryly.

"Mom, why are you bringing these, you can buy them all, it's not as good as at home, you don't need to bring it!" The rat was distressed, but he couldn't blame a good man, and he grabbed his hair irritably.

The mother rat began to gesture again.

"I'm not busy, really, why are you always driving me away!"

The mouse's mother pointed at Li Yao.

"Oh, he's my actor!"

The mouse's mother opened her mouth, surprised, came over to hold Li Yao's hand, looked him up and down, and then gestured again.

Mouse: "Ah, you also think you have an impression on TV, right, hey, although it's not very popular, but I will make him popular in the future, I'm a big director!"

Although his tone sounded confident, his expression turned away from the old man was pleased.

Li Yao smiled at the old man stiffly: "The director is very good, and the people in our crew like him very much." ”

When the old man heard this, he seemed to ask the mouse something, and the mouse hesitated for a while, until she made another gesture, and then finally said, "All right." ”

Li Yao: "Auntie wants it?"

"She wanted to see how we filmed. ”

Li Yao: "?!"

He asked the mouse what to do with his mouth, and the mouse was also helpless, but fortunately the old lady wanted to slaughter the chicken and cook for them, so the two of them were able to go to the balcony to discuss.

Li Yao: "What now?"

Mouse: "Well, I don't know!"

He walked back and forth, scratching at his hair.

Li Yao: "Don't go yet, I'm dizzy"

Mouse: "Alas, it's also my fault, I would have told the truth if I knew it, but how long I've been here, I've lied to her for how long, it's really hard to confess, my mother, I'm old, and I don't have a good heart." ”

He sighed deeply.

Li Yao dragged a chair over for him to sit down, "Then why do you have to come here?"

The mouse propped his elbows on his knees, buried his face deep in his palms, and did not answer this, but said something else: "Aren't you strange, why does my mother miss my grandmother?"

Li Yao: "Ugh"

Mouse: "On top of me, there were three more, two died, and one brother, who had an accident and left at a young age, and she gave birth to me after that." She especially loved my brother, his throat, because he was crying and hoarse, my father was still there at that time, and persuaded her to adopt one, but she didn't want to, so she took the risk of giving birth to me. ”

The mouse sighed again: "She also loves me too, maybe I'm the only one left, and I'm the youngest, so I'm worried about it, if it weren't for my body having collapsed, I couldn't toss it, I would definitely have to come to Hengdian with me, so I would"

"Just"

“”

He rubbed his hand on his face twice before he could continue: "I kept bragging about how good I was mixed up and how recently I even said that I became the director of a movie, she was very happy, Wang Lin, my fiancée didn't stop her, and she actually came to see me alone." ”

Li Yao: "Why don't you ask any director you know to let everyone cooperate with you for a day?"

The mouse still covered his face: "Are you the first day of the Hengheng shop, you don't know the amount of funds for a day, the most powerful person I know is just Sister Luo, who is a familiar face in the circle, and the road is clear, but he has only played a second girl, it's useless." ”

Li Yao couldn't help it. It's really hard to tell a lie, even if you explain the situation to others, it's useless. In these days, sympathy is nothing in the face of interests.

The phone rang, and when I took it out, I saw that the breathing light was on.

It's a text message, Xu Kuan's: "About the matter of the second male lead, have you thought about it?"

Li Yao looked at the text message and muttered, "If there is no ready-made crew, how about forming one yourself?"

The mouse suddenly raised his head: "What did you say?"

Li Yao showed him the text message: "In addition to the director, we have at least one screenwriter, and there are very few characters anyway, right, then me and Yanzi." ”

The mouse looked at him in disbelief: "What are you talking about, even if you don't consider the actor's appearance fee, don't have too many staff, what about the equipment and personnel, filming is a team thing!"

Li Yao: "Have you forgotten?"

Mouse: "What?"

Li Yao: "Find a producer, he can pay for it." ”

The rat opened its mouth wide: "You mean"

"That's right, I'll go find Yang Ming. ”

――――――――――――

Xu Kuan felt like he was dreaming: "How do you know that I have written a plan and am planning to go to Yang Ming, and you actually want to go with me, do you approve of me?"

Li Yao: "Yes, what is that, you heard what I just said, let the mouse cough, no, Wang Zhicong, be a director for the time being, okay?"

Xu Kuan nodded violently: "Okay, okay, as long as I can shoot, I don't care, but where are you going, I've been to the crew, and I've finished work today." ”

Li Yao: "I know a place where Yang Ming should be there, and I will talk to him directly face to face when the time comes." ”

Although he said that, Li Yao didn't have any confidence in his heart, not to mention whether Yang Ming would be where he was yesterday, and whether he would ignore their whimsical behavior was the question.

has no fame, no experience, no achievements, no security, just make a request, I always feel that it is too impossible.

Because in this world, they are still strangers.

But why, do you still feel that you are different from Yang Ming?

has arrived, Xu Kuan is still looking, but Li Yao has already seen Yang Ming's figure at a glance, wearing a black hat with a very low brim. But the lower half of the face that is exposed, the lines are very beautiful.

With his heart pounding, Li Yao took a deep breath, and then pulled Xu Kuan towards him.

"That, Yang Ming, hello. He looked up and said.

Yang Ming frowned, swept the text in Xu Kuan's hand, and said, "Come and ask for an autograph?"

Xu Kuan: "Oh no, no, I have a project here, about a movie, I think you are a good candidate for producer." ”

The sky was as dark as last night, and Yang Ming naturally felt that this was another boring one-sided entanglement: "No, I don't"

"Please!" Li Yao suddenly said, "At least take a look at the plan." ”

Yang Ming: "Can't I refuse?"

Li Yao lowered his head: "Although it's a bit bad to ask for it so much when we meet for the first time, but I"

Yang Ming didn't plan to continue talking to him, looked at Xu Kuan, and went straight to the point: "Have you ever been a screenwriter?" ”

Xu Kuan replied honestly: "No." ”

"Won an award?"

"Nope. ”

"Got a background?"

"No, nothing, I just want to make a movie. ”

Li Yao kept his head down and did not speak again.

Yang Ming: "There are a lot of people who want to make movies. Why do you have the courage to come to me without any advantages?"

Xu Kuan: "Because I just had the opportunity, I came to you, and I don't have to succeed." ”

"I do have plans to switch careers, but you don't have a reason for me to choose. ”

"Ah, what reason do you need?" Xu Kuan flipped over the plan in his hand: "I've been thinking about it for a long time, it's very detailed, and the script is also attached to the back, is there anything else?"

Yang Ming took it and looked at it, "It's very short, micro movie?"

Xu Kuan: "It's not enough, we can cooperate again in the future." ”

Yang Ming was amused by his stupidity: "To be so reckless and objective, you don't have any capital." ”

Xu Kuan said very seriously: "Do you think that I should save capital first, and then talk about ideals?"

"Of course. ”

"I just want to make a movie, why do I want to do something else? Many people have ideals, but they have a lot of concerns, they obviously want to paint, but because they don't have any money, they go to make money, and they forget their original purpose. ”

"Actually, it's not as difficult as I imagined, why do you have to take a detour, if you want to do it, just do it, is it a detour to achieve it, than to put in the past to put in the effort towards the goal at the beginning, I don't think it's necessary. ”

Yang Ming flipped through the script: "Your ideas are rare. ”

Xu Kuan smiled innocently: "Although I haven't won any awards, I like to run, I like to contact people, and I always pester others, so I know a lot of people, I think it may be more helpful for me to do this than to win an award!"

"Ah," he thought for a moment, and added a sycophant sentence in a youthful manner, "and I've also met that it's a good chance to meet you." ”

Yang Ming returned the plan to him: "Good script, but compared to this, your ideas move me more, maybe I shouldn't worry too much." ”

Xu Kuan pushed his big glasses: "Then you are"

"I agree to cooperate with you, I have written down your phone number, and your friend" He glanced at Li Yao, who had been silent, "Let's go back together, don't reveal my location again." ”

Xu Kuan's happy voice changed, he couldn't stop nodding, and said goodbye with Li Yao.

Walking on the road, Xu Kuan felt that he was going to cry, obviously before, even if he was scolded and beaten when he was promoting himself, he didn't want to cry, but after getting the coveted appreciation, he was very sad, his eyes were hot, and his nose was sore.

However, it is worth it to achieve your dreams little by little.
