564 The Beginning of Destruction
"What do you mean you're leaving?" Before Ryan could speak, Tucker jumped to his feet and looked at Jason with a stunned expression, his face full of incredulity, "So you're going to abandon us now?" Abandon the company? I can't believe that you chose to leave at this moment, don't you know what kind of predicament we are facing now? Or do you think we don't have any hope left, so you're ready to run away now? Like a coward? ”
Crackling, Tucker fired at Jason like a chain cannon. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Jason didn't retort, he didn't get excited, he just let Tucker speculate at will. Ryan looked at Jason like this, his heart jumped, a possibility flashed in his mind, and then he stood up abruptly and said in a loud voice, "You're going to join Lance, aren't you?" ”
Jason looked at Ryan in surprise, confused, completely unaware of where this guess came from.
But Jason's reaction looked in Ryan's eyes, but it was equivalent to verifying his guess, the boiling flame in his chest could barely be suppressed, and the calmness that he had always been proud of was also torn to shreds at this moment, "When did it start?" When exactly did it start? Or is it that from the very beginning, you have stood with Lance, connected with him behind our backs, and then dismantled us from within. ”
"Ryan, did you hear your own words?" Jason rolled his eyes speechlessly, but Tucker, who was standing next to him, had lost his ability to think and stood there dumbfounded, completely unincomprehensible to what was happening.
Ryan was stunned for a moment, and then realized that his thoughts were too extreme, "If you hadn't betrayed us, why would we have failed?" Why should Lance accept you again? Don't forget, you, like us, orchestrated the whole event and kicked Lance out of the company! ”
Jason only felt helpless for a while, and there was still some ridiculousness in the absurdity, and he couldn't help but show a smile, "Ryan, you still haven't changed anything." This is how Ryan and Lance's disagreement began, just a trivial matter, and then Ryan began to passively let the negativity grow, as if he were a victim, and couldn't wait to nip all the damage that hadn't happened in the cradle.
Ryan used to be such a person, always living in his own world, as if he was the center of the universe, everything was related to him, so he was always too sensitive, always too strong, when the initiative slipped from the palm of his hand, he would grasp more and more tightly, either towards explosion or destruction. Ryan is still such a person now, perhaps, Diorama Pictures is destined for today's ending, regardless of the existence of Chaos Pictures. Unfortunately, to this day, Ryan still doesn't realize it.
Lance was not such a person, his ego was hidden under a thick protective shell, he kindly and enthusiastically asked for the opinions of others, carefully took care of everyone's thoughts, the wounded and broken soul was always afraid of being hurt, rejected, and denied, and the movie dream was like his lifeline, firmly, tightly, and fiercely, unwilling to let go. Now Lance is becoming such a person, willing to harm others to protect himself, even if it is at the cost of exchanging his soul for demons.
Jason felt a little powerless.
"What do you mean?" Ryan's chest was heaving like a bloodthirsty beast, and his emotions on the verge of collapse filled him with a terrifying aura.
Jason tried to explain, but swallowed the words that came to his lips. Time passed, and they finally came to this point, everything was so familiar, first Lance left, and now it was his turn. He had wanted to try to change, he had wanted to make some efforts, but he found that it was all in vain, because even he himself had become unrecognizable, and why should he change other people?
"It's not interesting." Jason shook his head, "I'm just saying that it's not just Ryan Kavalaug and Lancelot Strello in this world. I'm leaving. ”
Jason decided to leave, to truly say goodbye to the past, farewell to the entanglements and grievances of the past, and also bid farewell to the past self, and create a new life. Not for Ryan, not for Lance, just for himself.
Maybe he will stick to his film dream, find a new crew or a company, and start from scratch; Maybe he will fulfill his long-cherished wish to make a documentary himself, which he has always wanted to try but never started; Maybe he will leave the film industry and find another way out......
He wasn't sure for the time being, but he was sure that he had to leave. He's made some good decisions and reaped incredible rewards; He had made some wrong choices, but he also paid a corresponding price. But now, he had to leave. It's not an escape, it's a new birth.
Finally looked at Ryan in front of him, he knew that Ryan had no way to understand his feelings, but he was really tired of living like this, "Ryan, goodbye." Jason smiled and stretched out his right hand, but Ryan didn't intend to shake hands at all, just letting Jason's right hand stop in mid-air.
Jason didn't mind, waited for a while, and after getting no response, he turned to look at Tucker who was standing aside, at this time Tucker still didn't seem to come back to his senses, didn't understand what was going on, Jason didn't plan to explain more, just stretched out his right hand and waited for a while.
Tucker hesitantly raised his right hand and took Jason, and then he saw a relieved smile on Jason's face, "Tucker, goodbye." After saying that, Jason turned to leave, and Tucker couldn't help but catch up two steps, "Jason, what about the 'Saharan cavalry'?" Should we continue to propagate? Jason just waved his hand, didn't pause, and walked away.
The entire office was amazed, surprised by the stunned and panicked look on Tucker's face, and surprised by Jason's ease and calmness, everyone watched Jason disappear from view, only the glass door swayed gently.
Until Jason left completely, Tucker's gaze still did not retract, and it seemed that he still couldn't get out of today's accident, and then Ryan's gnashing voice came from behind him, "What? You want to leave too? ”
Tucker turned around and looked at Ryan in front of him, the neat shirt collar was a little messy at this time, a small strand of hair neatly groomed with hairspray jumped out of the restraints, the protruding eyes became hateful because of the thin bloodshots, and the perfect mask seemed to have a crack that made people shudder.
"So, you've decided to continue to spread the word?" Instead, Tucker calmed down completely, and it seemed that in the blink of an eye, Tucker and Ryan's roles switched from each other, "Do you have a plan?" Where do you plan to start promoting the overseas market? In two weeks, it's summer vacation, and we have very limited time. ”
Ryan didn't speak, but looked at Tucker seriously, his hesitant gaze was full of speculation and doubt, and his brows couldn't help but move closer to the middle, "Are you going to join Lance too?" You know, he's missing a head of the publishing department right now, and he'll be happy to see you on board. ”
Tucker exhaled softly, the day had finally come, witnessing the fall of the entire empire. Of course, Diorama Pictures can't be considered an empire, but after all, this is a company built by the four of them, and now it is coming to an end.
Tucker didn't regret sweeping Lance out of the house, he knew from the beginning that he and Lance were not all the same, and he never got used to Lance's pretentious but self-pitying personality, which made people feel sick to their stomachs. At this time, Tucker remembered more of Jason's resoluteness when he left, and his relief, he didn't know what Jason's plans were, but he knew that it was time for him to think about himself.
"Ryan, are you serious? Are you going to discuss this with me now? Tucker shook his head helplessly, "You know I've never had a good relationship with Lance. "Lance and Jason were friends, and Lance and Ryan were friends, but Lance and he were never friends.
"But you're all pursuing the common good." Ryan still didn't give up, this time Tucker didn't bother to explain, just stood there and looked at Ryan, the two of them confronted each other like this, no one was willing to back down, and finally Tucker shrugged, "If you don't want to talk, then good, I can leave now." With that, Tucker turned and walked away.
Ryan finally relented and said, "yes, let's expand the spread and stay in North America for the next week, then start in Europe, and then move to South ......America when the summer season starts."
Ryan's words gradually became blurred, and Tucker looked at Ryan who had fallen into a state of madness, and he knew that Ryan was crazy. Not only has Ryan lost his pride of calmness and sanity, but he also lost himself. Tucker decided to leave, and in the blink of an eye, he had already figured out the way back, he could work at a PR agency, he could also find a position in the distribution department of Warner Bros., and if he wanted to, he could finish the job change and start over the next week. In fact, he also planned it this way, the "Saharan Cavalry" was finished, and Diorama Pictures was finished.
Quietly looking at Ryan chattering in front of him, Tucker suddenly understood how Lance was feeling now: the turtle in the urn, condescendingly watching them die in the trap, giving up further actions, only to watch them gradually fall apart and fall apart, watch them be killed little by little by the inner torment, and watch them kill themselves in torment and pressure.
Tucker couldn't help but look up, as if he could see Lance's smile in the sky above him. (To be continued.) )
