Chapter 35: Sharing a Bed with a Stranger

April 1, 2003 was the day of the SARS epidemic, and it was also a key day for senior high school students to prepare for the exam.

Sun Buqi's senior high school and thirteenth class were quite unquiet in their evening self-study.

The girls got together to discuss Leslie Cheung's jumping incident. Some couldn't help wiping away their tears and gently hummed "The Wind Continues to Blow".

The boys gathered in twos and threes, gleefully talking about the news of the U.S. invasion of Baghdad.

This is the first war they have experienced "personally", Baghdad, Basra, Najaf, Mosul, Karbala, Tikrit, etc., one by one, the ancient cities of the Middle East are fluently popping out of the mouths of the boys.

Sun Buqi is also one of them, holding a map cropped out of the newspaper and pointing out the country.

"The bureau said on TV: Iraqi soldiers and civilians will fight hard to resist the US imperialist soldiers, and the elite tank corps and National Guard will be deployed on the outskirts of Baghdad to defend key positions such as bridges and airports......"

Simply retelling the original words of Zhang Zhaozhong, the bureau, won him the title of "Sun Military Expert", and unashamedly proclaimed: There was Sun Wu in the past, and there is Sun Buqi today!

After explaining the differences in the backgrounds of the mainland and Hong Kong, Sun Buqi said eloquently, "Young people on both sides of the strait have different educational and living environments, and the three views they have formed are also different. In the future, the box office of the mainland will be determined by our post-70s and post-80s generations, and we will make movies that we like to watch, not movies that the director thinks are good-looking!"

"We girls prefer to watch movies ......", the other party was a little sexist, Zhou Xiaoya retorted angrily.

Sun Buqi smiled apologetically, Nunu mouthed, "You like to watch movies, but the right to speak and comment on the film is in the hands of men." ”

Andy frowned slightly, made eye contact with the assistant for a moment, and then quickly communicated in Cantonese.

Sun Buqi shook his head and turned his gaze to the hall to check the baroque decoration, but he couldn't see a clue, preferring the antique buildings in China.

Seeing that the two were arguing, he added firewood to the fire, and asked about the movie that had just been staged.

""There Are No Thieves in the World", which was released last year, is also the first mainland film that Andy participated in, right? The movie was staged for a week, and the box office surpassed Brother Long's "New Police Story 2". As of today, it's estimated to be more than 100 million, right?"

Andy's face is colorful, "It exceeded 80 million in two weeks, and it was finally estimated to be 120 million yuan." ”

He has always been regarded as box office poison, and finally with the help of this film, he completed the turnaround of the salted fish!

Sun Buqi continued to ask, "What about "Big Guy"? This film has also won numerous awards, with a bumper harvest in word-of-mouth and box office. ”

The assistant looked embarrassed and waved his hand, "Sun Sheng, let's not talk about digressions." ”

Andy shrugged his shoulders and pressed the assistant's shoulder, "Chen Sheng, you don't have to be like this, you can't tell people about it." The box office of "Big Guy" is only 26 million Hong Kong dollars, less than 25 million yuan. ”

Sun Buqi's face was expressionless, and there was no joy of the winner,

"There are 1.3 billion people in the mainland, only 7 million people in Hong Kong, and only 20 million people in the surrounding natural ticket warehouse. Now the consumption in the mainland is not high, the total box office is not high, but the ceiling is very high. This year's box office champion is "Hero", but it has not reached 150 million, and ten years later, the minimum box office of a film of the same quality will not be less than 1.5 billion!"

Andy is not dragging his feet, he is straightforward, "For films facing the mainland market, Sun Sheng has the right to choose copies, select directors, and have the right of veto." ”

After Sun Buqi's introduction, he no longer insisted on his own views and made some concessions.

The assistant was anxious and couldn't help but object, "Our investment accounts for the majority ......"

However, the two bigwigs ignored his words.

Both of them are not greedy for small profits, learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, and successfully reach a cooperation agreement.

Andy stood up, full of spring breeze, "Sun Sheng, communicating with you has made me feel free and benefited a lot!"

Sun Buqi was also very excited, "No matter what, I hope that our cooperation can continue forever." Although I am soft-spoken, I also hope to contribute my own modest strength to Chinese films. ”

Andy held each other's hands tightly and sighed generously, "I hope more people can participate in this activity and pay more attention to it." At the cocktail party set up tomorrow, you are also one of the hosts. ”

Sun Buqi's 1 million yuan is the "horse bone" for a daughter to buy horse bones.

With an annual investment of 20 million, he can afford it. But if we can bring in more funds and more social resources, we can achieve the goal of revitalizing Chinese-language films faster, why not?

When Sun and Liu shook hands, one person suddenly raised the camera and pressed the shutter continuously.

Zhou Xiaoya was dazzled by the strong light and unconsciously leaned behind Andy;

Before everyone could react, the paparazzi smeared oil on the soles of their feet and fled.

Sun Buqi, "Hong Kong's paparazzi culture is really ......"

After the advent of smart camera phones, various Internet communities have emerged, and paparazzi culture will slowly disappear.

Andy frowned, "It seems to be Apple Daily, you two are a little troublesome." ”

Apple Daily, like the British Sun, is unreliable and unreliable.

Sun Buqi shrugged his shoulders and looked indifferent, "I'm a nobody, and no one knows me, so I make up fake news with them." ”

……

The two return to the hotel and have to face new embarrassment.

After dealing with the official business at hand, Sun Buqi stretched his waist, and saw that Zhou Xiaoya was still holding a hair dryer and constantly blowing the bedding, and couldn't help asking,

"Hasn't the quilt dried yet? You have too much water, right?"

Zhou Xiaoya's face turned red, smashed the hair dryer over, and screamed, "Sun Buqi, you are a hooligan! I will stone you to death!"

Sun Buqi gently dodged the attack, looking innocent, not knowing that he was wrong again.

Picking it up, trying it, shrugging, "The hair dryer is broken, the bed hasn't dried yet, you can ask for more blessings." ”

He yawned, "I'm sleepy, I have a bunch of things to do tomorrow, so I'll sleep first." ”

was tortured by Chen Jiachang in the morning, ran all the way at noon, fought wits and courage in the afternoon, and accompanied a crazy girl to visit Victoria Harbor in the evening, which was a little exhausting.

When Zhou Xiaoya heard this, she ran to Sun Buqi's bed and got into the quilt, "Your bed is requisitioned by me, you sleep in another!"

Sun Buqi didn't care about the other party in general, climbed on the slightly damp quilt, and couldn't help grinning.

Turn off the light, the room is dark, and the lonely man and widow are alone in the room, and they can't help but start the association.

Zhou Xiaoya heard the tossing and turning of the bed next door, and couldn't help but soften, "The bed is wet, you can also sleep here......"

Sun Buqi jumped out immediately as if he had a spring on his body, and couldn't help but complain, "If I sleep on the wet quilt again, I may be sick tomorrow." ”

Zhou Xiaoya was anxious, "You're really welcome!"

couldn't help but argue, "The main thing is that the mattress is wet and the quilt is almost completely dry." You take the quilt and turn it over. ”

The two of them don't share the same bed, but they are not far apart, and they can hear each other's breathing and heartbeat.

"Can you go to the other end? If you snore at night, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep. ”

Zhou Xiaoya smelled the masculine breath, and her heart was like a deer jumping.

The sleepiness that had just been brewing was interrupted, and Sun Buqi couldn't help but complain, "I have smelly feet, are you sure I want to sleep on the other end?"

Zhou Xiaoya pinched her nose and said angrily, "You're so disgusting! Fortunately, I'm prepared, with earplugs." ”

After that, I turned on the bedside lamp, put on only my pajamas, and went to the suitcase to get tools.

On long-haul planes, airlines prepare earplugs for passengers, and flight attendants are naturally close to the water and get the first month.

The pajamas are light and transparent, and under the bedside lamp, you can see the white and tender skin of the flight attendant, and even see two bulges.

Sun Buqi touched his chin and smiled, "Help me get a pair of earplugs, and by the way, help me get a pair of eye patches, so that I don't have to see things that I shouldn't see, and I can't sleep with excitement!"

Zhou Xiaoya found that she was gone, and casually smashed the things at hand, "Sun Buqi, you are going to die." ”

"I found out that you are not a taekwondo black belt, but the second generation of Xiao Li's flying knife, flying flowers and picking leaves can hurt people......" Sun Buqi did not dodge, was hit on the face by an object, and smelled a fragrant fragrance.

He couldn't help but wonder, "What is this?"
