Chapter 8: Changing the Script

The third day of employment has been smooth sailing so far.

Lan Feng doesn't go out except for calling for coffee and urging progress, so every time the door of that room opens, Fu Xiaoxiao prepares his mobile phone and is ready to go downstairs at any time.

At this moment, the office area that only belongs to Zhou Jichu and them is silent, filled with post-war fireworks.

But just now Lan Feng came out, instead of asking for coffee, he walked up to the two of them, and returned the script they handed in to them after finishing the script.

It was obvious that Lan Feng was not satisfied with the adaptation of the two of them.

Zhou Jichu looked at his revised script and didn't feel anything abrupt, but the big red word "abrupt" was clearly on it, which made Zhou Jichu very distressed.

Zhou Jichu looked up at the opposite side, and Fu Xiaoxiao also looked confused.

Zhou Jichu suddenly wanted to see what Fu Xiaoxiao wrote.

Maybe it was because she thought of going together, Fu Xiaoxiao also raised her head, looking at each other, and Zhou Jichu quickly avoided her gaze.

"Ahem... Otherwise, let's take a look at it separately, don't Miss Lan have to dismiss it next time. ”

Fu Xiaoxiao opened her mouth first.

"Hmm!" Zhou Jichu hurriedly handed her the documents in front of him.

This was the first time they had spoken since their junior year.

took the document handed over by Fu Xiaoxiao, and there were also two big red characters on it - "abrupt".

After taking a closer look at the ending rewritten by Fu Xiaoxiao, I have to say that it is indeed more open than what I wrote, but why is it still abrupt?

Fu Xiaoxiao also reacted in this way.

"Why is it not right for the heroine to die in the end, and it is not right not to die?"

Zhou Jichu asked.

"Why do you want her to die?"

"Because I think according to the heroine's fierce temper, even if she is rescued, it is estimated that she will choose to commit suicide."

"You have a point."

"What about you? Why do you think she's going to live? ”

"Because I watched the previous plot, the male and female protagonists discussed what would happen to the female protagonist if the male protagonist died, and he said that he hoped that the female protagonist could live instead of him."

"This does echo the previous one, but why still..."

"I don't know, I really don't know." Fu Xiaoxiao shook her head.

There was silence again.

The doorknob of the small room began to turn, Fu Xiaoxiao and Zhou Jichu immediately sat down, and began to pretend to read the script seriously in a panic.

"I'll get off work first, you two clean up and withdraw if you have nothing to do, don't worry, hand over the script to me again tomorrow, and finalize it the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, Sister Lan." Fu Xiaoxiao replied.

As soon as Zhou Jichu opened his mouth, he saw Lan Feng carrying a bag and leaving without looking back, so Zhou Jichu had no choice but to shut up.

To be honest, Zhou Jichu felt that Lan Feng's feet were windy every time, because every time she walked to her side, Zhou Jichu felt a cool breeze blowing.

It wasn't until Lan Feng walked out of the office area that Zhou Jichu breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at Fu Xiaoxiao again, her face told Zhou Jichu that she felt the same way.

"Will you come back and work overtime after eating?"

Fu Xiaoxiao looked at Zhou Jichu and said.

"Huh? And... With me? ”

Zhou Jichu was puzzled.

"Or else? There's no second person here. ”

Fu Xiaoxiao said and began to clean up the table.

Zhou Jichu was stunned for a moment, and then began to clean up.

The noodle restaurant downstairs of the company.

Zhou Jichu ordered somen noodles, Fu Xiaoxiao still had spicy beef noodles, everything was the same as at school.

Zhou Jichu sucked his face, and didn't forget to look at Fu Xiaoxiao opposite.

After graduation, Zhou Jichu thought that he would never see her again, but he didn't expect that he could still sit together and eat noodles now.

As if sensing Zhou Jichu's scrutiny, Fu Xiaoxiao opened his mouth:

"Why, you don't recognize me?"

"No... No, it just feels like you're not the same as before. Zhou Jichu hurriedly swallowed the noodles in his mouth.

"What's the difference?" Fu Xiaoxiao put the meat in the noodles in his mouth.

"Hmm... Actually, I can't say it, it's just a bit of a working woman. ”

Zhou Jichu said after thinking about it seriously.

"Oh."

Fu Xiaoxiao looked lost.

"What about me? Has anything changed for me? Zhou Jichu looked forward to it.

"No, it's still as stupid as before." Fu Xiaoxiao said without raising her head.

Zhou Jichu silently rolled his eyes in his heart, and then continued to eat noodles.

Back in the office, Zhou Jichu looked at the computer desktop in a daze. Seeing Fu Xiaoxiao go to the pantry to make coffee, the ghost followed him by surprise.

"Don't you never drink coffee?" Fu Xiaoxiao asked.

"Isn't this going to work, don't all people who work overtime drink coffee!" Zhou Jichu said, and also opened a pack of instant coffee.

Fu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at her.

Stirring the coffee empty, Zhou Jichu couldn't help but ask:

"You said, we wrote different endings, why did Sister Lan criticize the same criticism?"

"If I knew, I wouldn't be here for coffee with you." Fu Xiaoxiao sneered.

"And what kind of ending does she want?" Zhou Jichu asked in a low voice.

"It's not about guessing what she wants, it's what Party A wants." Fu Xiaoxiao leaned against the bar and took a sip of coffee.

"Party A just wants the artist to be popular, that is, either to surprise people, or to show the artist's acting skills naturally, but aren't these two endings the two endings we wrote? What's wrong? Zhou Jichu really couldn't figure it out.

"Perhaps, they want a win-win situation? not only makes the ending unexpected and impresses the audience, but also reflects the artist's acting skills. ”

"Makes sense!"

Zhou Jichu suddenly became excited.

"Xiaoxiao, you are really the best at speculating on other people's minds!"

"No, not everyone can speculate, otherwise it wouldn't... Forget it, I told you you don't understand either. After speaking, Fu Xiaoxiao drank the last sip of coffee, and then began to wash the cup.

Although Zhou Jichu wanted to ask, it was estimated that she would not be able to say, so she closed her mouth in amusement.

Zhou Jichu tasted the black coffee in the cup and couldn't help frowning.

"It's bitter!"

Fu Xiaoxiao glanced at Zhou Jichu's embarrassment, and it was rare that he didn't laugh.

"If you think coffee is too bitter, don't drink it, you're not good for coffee."

Then he patted Zhou Jichu on the shoulder and took a sugar packet to her.

Zhou Jichu didn't understand the meaning of her words, but he still honestly put the sugar bag in.

According to Fu Xiaoxiao's thinking, Zhou Jichu changed the original ending again.

After typing the last word, Zhou Jichu stretched, took out his mobile phone and glanced at his watch, it was already close to ten o'clock.

"Xiaoxiao, I'm done correcting, how long will it take you?"

"Let's go first when you're done correcting, I'll have to wait a while."

"It's okay, let's go together, it's not safe to go back alone."

Fu Xiaoxiao glanced up at Zhou Jichu, and then stopped talking and continued typing.

The next day, Lan Feng called the two of them to the office.
