Section 23: Secret War (II)
After going out to dinner with Qi Sheng, after the meal, Qi Sheng sent the two to the hotel and left, and the two went back to Fangfang Hotel.
Entering the room, Duane put the box containing the copies in the corner, and as soon as he looked up, he saw Shuyu standing in front of him.
"What's wrong?"
Shu Yu looked at him and asked, "We don't have any copyrights at all, why did you sell Saw to him on your own initiative? ”
Instead of answering, Duane asked her, "Why didn't you tell me just now?"
Shu Yu dropped the sentence of the book bag, "If you go outside, you must first settle inside".
Duane gave her a thumbs up, "conscious", then pressed her shoulders and pushed her aside, walked over to the wall and turned the fan switch to 5 gear.
The ceiling fan above the two of them rotated, first slowly, gradually accelerating, and finally reaching the maximum gear, screaming "whoosh" and sprinkling gusts of cool breeze.
Duane sat down on the edge of the bed on the side of the ceiling fan in his bed, unbuttoned his shirt twice in a row, grabbed the neckline and kept opening and closing, feeling the cool breeze pouring down from his head, and let out a sigh of relief: "Comfortable." ”
Shu Yu also walked over and sat on the edge of the bed across from him, looking at him.
Duane wiped the sweat from his forehead again, and finally answered her question.
"You don't need to worry at all, we just need to say to the company, 'Someone wants to buy "Chainsaw" for 2.2 million yuan -- a film that costs 200,000 yuan, only intends to release it for the home market after the filming is completed, and is not even sure whether the cost can be recovered, and now someone buys it for 2.2 million yuan, what reason does Fang Liyong have not to sell it? Especially since you have a special relationship, Fang Liyong can't hide this news if he wants to. ”
Speaking of this, Du An glanced at Shu Yu and changed his words: "Okay, because of your special reasons, he actually has a reason not to sell, but his reason can't be on the table, so he can only sell, after all, this company is not his own." ”
"Think about it, push ten times the profit outward, can he, the manager, still be able to go down as a manager when the news gets out? ”
At this point, Duane took out a thermos from the bedside table, filled it with a full glass provided by the hotel, and poured it into his mouth, despite the fact that the water had just been poured out of the thermos—the dinner that Qi Sheng invited them to eat was Sichuan cuisine, spicy and greasy, and he drank a few bottles of beer in the process, and he was thirsty.
Fortunately, the water in the thermos was drawn in the boiling water room when the two of them went out in the morning, and it is now warm.
"Hey!"
After Du An's cup of warm water was filled, he breathed a sigh of relief, put the cup back on the bedside table, and then said to Shu Yu: "Actually, he can not sell it, and the method is very simple, that is, to increase the offer." ”
"If his offer Qi Sheng can't accept, say, 10 million, then the deal still can't be established, and in this way, then his reasons will be very justified and even unassailable - 'I'm bullish on Saw and it's worth 10 million'. As soon as this reason comes out, who can attack him? You can't stop people from enjoying a movie. ”
When Du An said this, the eyes behind the big black frame of Shu Yu suddenly lit up.
Duane looked at her like this and smiled, "Looks like you thought of it too." ”
"Yes, if he did, he could have ruined the deal, but at the same time, he had to get Saw into theaters and get it out, or he wouldn't have been able to explain it to anyone else — why are you so optimistic about this movie, why are you just letting it go through the home market instead of releasing it? And that's what we wanted in the first place. ”
"So no matter what he does, Saw is bound to be released, and we're already invincible. ”
At this moment, Du An felt that if he had grown two beards, put a guqin in front of him, and two boys standing next to him to burn incense and shake fans, it would probably be the style of Kong Ming who had retired from the empty city when he was talking and laughing.
The fly in the ointment, the fly in the ointment, you still have to grow a beard.
As soon as the young man who claimed to be Zhuge Duan finished sighing, he felt that the thirst that had been slightly suppressed just now had surged up again, and his mouth was dry. So he took the cup, poured himself another glass of warm boiled water, and drank it with a grunt, his eyes floating down casually while drinking, but he froze when it floated to Shu Yu.
Shu Yu also wore a white shirt today, because the weather was hot, the neckline was open at the moment, and under the cool breeze of the ceiling fan on his head, the neckline flickered left and right, and the clavicle hidden below was also looming, and then down the collarbone, Duane seemed to have an illusion of "I saw a soft snow white".
He seemed to get hotter for a moment, drank the rest of the water in one gulp, and then jerked his head in the direction of the bedside table, only to hear a "click" - not a broken bone, just a rattle in the cervical vertebrae.
Then he picked up the thermos again, filled the cup with water, and in a panic, some of the water splashed on the back of his hand, but fortunately the water was not hot. Without waiting for the water to be poured, Duane couldn't wait to pick up the cup and pour it violently, and his face was always facing the wall at the head of the bed during the whole process, not turning towards Shu Yu's side for a moment.
"Are you that thirsty?"
Shu Yu asked, and without waiting for Du An's answer, he continued to ask: "Then if you say so, you should try to open a low price this afternoon? In that case, Qi Sheng will be more acceptable, aren't you afraid that the price of two million will directly scare Qi Sheng away?"
Du An's strange posture of the lower body facing Shu Yu and the upper body rotating ninety degrees towards the wall at the head of the bed said: "The price can't be lowered, if it is lower, then Fang Liyong still has a reason to refuse the transaction and release, and I have thought about it for him - 'Your offer is too low', 'Actually, I am not optimistic about this movie, and the refusal to trade is just because the price they offer is too low, which is really unacceptable, and I am not ready to let this film go through the theater channel'." ”
"So if you want to force Fang Li to comply, you need a suitable number, a number that he can't say 'low' and has a reason to go through the theater channel - two million is good. Now it's 200,000 more, which is even better. ”
After listening to Du An's analysis, Shu Yu didn't speak for a long time. After a long time, he sighed lightly, "College students are college students, and high school students like me can't figure out these things at once." ”
Du An felt that he had calmed down, so he turned his head, looked at Shu Yu bravely, and comforted: "The ruler is short, the inch is long, you don't have to be presumptuous, you still have many advantages, for example, ......" When he saw Shu Yu's face, he was stunned.
The impression left by Shu Yu on him has always been self-reliant, strong, and assertive, and he is completely the image of a self-reliant woman in the new era, which can almost be equated with the female King Kong, which also leads to the fact that Du Yu has long forgotten that Shu Yu is actually a beauty.
Shu Yu was probably tired from wearing glasses and eyes for a day at the moment, so she took off the big black frame, and also showed her face in front of Du An without covering. Now she leaned her head at a 45-degree angle to the lower left, holding half a glass of water in her hands in front of her lower abdomen, and her legs were very ladylike and diagonal.
The key is that her eyebrows are frowning lightly at the moment, her eyes are fragile and helpless, and her face like a little white flower is simply the reincarnation of Daiyu, which is in stark contrast to her previous female image in the new era.
Today is the eighteenth day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, and the moon is almost the same as the sixteenth, big and round. The window was open, the night breeze blew open the curtain, the soft moonlight shone in, spread all over the ground, and climbed up Shu Yu's body, wrapping her with a layer of bright clothes, white skin and shining, eye-catching.
The scenery was so beautiful that Duane was stunned, so much so that what he wanted to say about "self-improvement, independence and feelings" blurted out into another sentence.
"Nice breasts, big butts. ”
As soon as the words came out, the atmosphere in the room froze.
Duane seemed to have Alzheimer's disease, looking at Shu Yu blankly, his eyes blinking, but his head was running at full speed, thinking about how to get the words back.
Shu Yu didn't give him this chance.
After hearing this comment, the woman silently put on the big black-rimmed glasses, took out the fruit knife from under the pillow, pulled out the knife cover, held it in front of her eyes, and was silent, a pair of glasses flew back and forth on the cold flickering blade.
Duane felt like his back was wet.
Heroine spare her life!
Duane wanted to shout at the moment—kneeling down seemed to be more effective, but the thought was tossed out after only two laps in his head.
Think about the time when our volunteers didn't coax the two sides when there was a half-century difference in equipment, they just stirred up North Korea into a mess, and now they and Shu Yu are just a fruit knife, how can they be intimidated?
Duane kept encouraging himself with the deeds of the martyrs in his heart, but the blood could not be warmed up.
"Apples?"
In the end, it was Shu Yu who broke the deadlock.
"Ah...... Yes?...... Ahh
Duane found that after such a long period of training, he still couldn't keep up with Shu Yu's thinking jump, but even if he was a fool, he knew how to speak at the moment, so he nodded his head sharply.
"Eat!"
After eating apples, taking a shower, washing clothes, drying behind the door, and watching TV for a while, the two finally fell asleep, during which no one mentioned the embarrassing situation just now.
Before going to bed, Duane, as usual, turned off all the lights except for the toilet light, and the sliding door of the toilet was also closed, leaving only a faint light to shine through, making it easier for people to wake up at night.
After another hour, Shu Yu was already asleep, but Duane was lying on his back on the bed, his eyes closed, his mouth opening and closing rapidly, and if he leaned over his ears, he could hear the sound coming from his mouth.
“…… The relics are not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color, color is emptiness, emptiness is color, and the same is true when you want to know it. The relics are the emptiness of all laws, unborn and imperishable, impure and impure......"
Shu Yu suddenly turned over, Du An was so frightened that he quickly shut up, his body was stiff, like a zombie, he only waited for a long time, and he didn't see any movement from Shu Yu, so he continued to meditate: "Therefore, there is no color in the air, no thoughts, no thoughts, no knowledge, no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind, colorless fragrance, and ......"
At this moment, Shu Yu, who was facing away from Du An, hooked the corners of his mouth in an arc, and then disappeared.
All that was left in the room was the incessant sound of male mosquitoes chanting.
