Chapter 16: Getting on the Train

After nearly half a month of post-production, the half-finished film of "Shark Beach" has finally come out.

In fact, Tang An completed the rough cut of the movie three days ago, and the editing was completed a week later, after all, he has a complete memory in his head, as long as he cuts it.

But in order to keep improving, Tang An spent nearly a week watching it repeatedly, pondering back and forth for every shot, and cut the 88-minute movie to 85 minutes to ensure that the plot was compact and smooth, and there was no trace of procrastination before he was satisfied.

For a thriller and horror film, rhythm is absolutely very important, and it is necessary to grasp the transition of every shot to drive the audience's psychology.

At the end of June, Tang An took the sample and all his belongings on the train to the capital.

In addition to Yang Mi's 10,000 yuan salary, the follow-up props, labor and miscellaneous expenses add up to 16,000.

So he now has 4,000 yuan left in his body.

There is no train station in Hengdian, so you need to take a bus to Yiwu and then change to a train.

Bus tickets are very cheap, and now it is the beginning of the summer vacation, and the 40-kilometer road is only 5 yuan.

However, the train ticket from Yiwu to the capital is a bit of a pit, the K-shaped express train, the hard seat 201, the hard sleeper 343, the high-speed rail first-class seat 974 yuan, and the business seat is outrageous 1827.

With a train ticket of 1827 more than 10 years later, many families can't save so much money in a year.

I bought a train ticket with pain, and bought two buckets of instant noodles and two bags of instant noodles outside the train station, as well as two cans of Jianlibao.

In front of the small shop, I saw a mother buy a can for her child, and the child directly pierced a small hole in the middle with a needle.

Shake the jar and drink it in your mouth, and your smile is full of happiness and satisfaction.

The well-deserved king of drinks in the hearts of the post-8090s, the first sports drink in China, became famous overseas, became popular after the Los Angeles Olympics, and was known as "Chinese magic water".

Later, some people compared Jianlibao and Red Bull, in fact, the two are fundamentally different, Red Bull is a functional drink, which can improve the spirit for a period of time in the case of extreme exhaustion.

However, Red Bull must not drink too much, especially without a lot of exercise, drinking water for a long time is easy to increase the heart workload, increase blood pressure, and even cause kidney failure.

Especially for students who are not fully developed, after all, it contains a lot of hormones.

Jianlibao is a sports drink, which does not have the effect of making people excited, but can only add some calories and sugar, and is not a carbonated drink, so it is the standard configuration of domestic athletes, just like Gatorade, the designated drink of the NBA.

Twenty years later, thieves are rarely encountered on the train, and at that time, the money was in bank cards and mobile phones, and some people didn't even bring their wallets, so they took a mobile phone out of the house.

The average mobile phone is more than 2,000, and even if it is stolen, it will not be sold for 1,000 yuan, and the profit is too small.

Now it's different, the majority of people still go out with cash, and mobile phones are also valuables.

The rivers and lakes are sinister, people's hearts are unpredictable, and there are many train thieves!

This backpack contains things that can determine his future, and he must not lose anything, and he must always be mental!

Getting on the bus at 9:15 a.m., Tang An was lucky enough to buy a window seat.

As soon as the train departed, people were at their most energetic, and everything was business as usual.

After 6 p.m., people took out their prepared lunch boxes and ate dinner.

A bucket of foam with 3 pieces is a luxury for ordinary people, and most people bring their own food to eat.

But at any given time, some people forget to prepare for various things, and can only buy high-priced food on the train.

"Woooo..."

Tang An's noodles were quickly soaked, a bucket of instant noodles was filled with a bag, a bucket full of boiling water was poured, and after a large sip of soup, he began to enjoy his dinner.

The white elephant has a big bone noodles, and the taste that has been lost for a long time feels much better than the later Kang Shuaifu and Tongyi.

Halfway through eating, there was a sudden sound of swallowing saliva in my ears.

"Goo-doo... Goo-too..."

Tang An bit off the instant noodles on the side of his mouth and looked to the side.

A little boy of seven or eight years old was sitting in his mother's arms, staring straight at him.

To be precise, staring at Tang An's mouth.

Seeing Tang An chew the instant noodles in his mouth, he could see that the little boy's throat was obviously stirring.

The little boy's mother also found out that her child was staring at others eating instant noodles, so she hurriedly put the lunch box on the small table, pulled the little boy over, and looked at Tang An apologetically.

"I'm sorry, the child is not sensible!"

"It's okay, big sister!" Tang An smiled and shook his head.

"Xiaodong, come to dinner!" the eldest sister handed the small lunch box to the little boy.

Xiaodong glanced at the instant noodles in Tang An's hand with a reluctant face, and began to eat his own food, looking at Tang An's hand from time to time.

Looking at the pickled orange peel and dried radish in his lunch box, Tang An was quite touched.

After thinking about it, Tang An took out a pack of instant noodles from his bag, touched the little boy's head, and handed it over, "Here, uncle invites you to eat instant noodles!"

Xiaodong raised his head with surprise on his face, and was about to reach out to pick it up.

"Smack!"

His mother suddenly slapped him on the hand and said to Tang An, "The child is greedy, don't be weird big brother, thank you for your kindness!"

After that, he turned his head to educate his children.

"Tell you not to take other people's things, but you don't listen!"

Tang An shook his head self-deprecatingly, the vigilance of people in this year is beyond imagination, a stranger gave away a pack of instant noodles for 1 yuan for no reason, and it was on the train, which inevitably made people suspicious.

After dinner, the sky began to slowly darken, Tang An's right arm passed through the two shoulder straps of the backpack, pressed between the seat and the wall, and leaned sideways to rest.

There was a vague whisper in his ears that the child who was currently educating himself seemed to really believe that Tang An was a bad person.

I took a two-hour nap in a daze, and woke up on time at almost 9 o'clock.

At this point, most people are going to sleep, and it is the best time for the official thief to commit a crime.

I slept for two hours before, which should last a night.

The carriage gradually quieted down, and Liu Dong suddenly heard a sound of whistling ropes.

In the aftermath of a moment, the little boy was taking advantage of his mother's sleep to reach for the small table.

It turned out to be for that!

Tang An didn't pay attention to him anymore after seeing his movements clearly.

Of the two seasoning packets, Tang An only used one, and the remaining two unopened small bags were touched by the little boy.

He glanced at Tang An vigilantly, then quickly tore open the powder packet, put his fingers in it and dipped it a little, put it in his mouth and sucked it repeatedly.

After two or three repetitions, the little boy reluctantly put the seasoning bag back in his pocket.

The long night was a bit boring, there was no entertainment, and there were only two mini-games in Nokia's phone: Snake and Space Wars.

The former requires a high degree of concentration to play in the back, which is too brain-consuming.

The latter has cleared countless times in his previous life, but the game is simple, and he has mastered the skills, and the boss of each level can be stuck to death.

"Please take care of your belongings to avoid losing them!"

This was the voice of the train inspector from the carriage, and he shouted three times in a row, which immediately woke Tang An up.

This is a reminder to passengers that there are thieves in the carriage!
