Chapter 138: Hospital
In the past few days, Ye Wei has continued to ask for leave from the school, his grades in various subjects have maintained A, and there are these excellent tables that surpass academics, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to enter the high school.
He completed a small amount of dubbing and recording work, and today he officially settled in a film and television post-production studio called "Cutting Worker" in Santa Monica to start editing "The Wedding is Coming".
The editor column will have two names, one for him and the other for Suzanne Hines.
This middle-aged white woman who has been in the industry for more than 20 years has rich experience in post-production, and has done sound effects, music, and editing, and has 13 film and television works in editing, the most famous of which are "The Legend of Ban Zheming" (production cost 15 million, box office 22 million) and "Next Friday" (cost unannounced, box office 33 million), both of which did not perform well, which also makes her unemployed to this day, like Sean Maurrell, "The Wedding is Coming" It was the best chance she could get right now.
And for him and "The Wedding is Coming", Susanne, who has cut many comedies such as "Next Friday", will be of great help, after all, he is the first time to cut a feature film!
In the days before he was doing the voiceover, Suzanne had already sorted out all the raw material, and today their goal is to complete the selection and editing, that is, to review the material together, and let him know the pacing, duration, story telling style, etc.
By almost 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the two completed the selection efficiently, the duration was 90 minutes, the rhythm was clear and clear, and the way of telling was bold and spoofed.
"There's still an hour to go, so let's start making a rough cut!"
The editing room is quite spacious, with a small sofa, a coffee table, and a long U-shaped desk opposite the wall, which is full of electronic devices for non-linear editing, and several computer screens display different images, and the two of them sit in front of them and operate the mouse.
Ye Wei said excitedly, and Suzanne, who was a little blessed and wore glasses, smiled: "Young people are tireless, I really have never seen anyone who has such enthusiasm for editing." ”
"How can you get tired of doing what you love? ”
was about to start the rough cutting work, Ye Wei put the mobile phone on the table suddenly vibrate, he picked it up and looked, it was his mother who called, because she rarely called at this point, he frowned suspiciously, and for some reason he had a bad feeling in his heart, and then answered: "Hey, Mom, what ......?"
Suzanne next to her saw that the young man's face immediately changed, becoming very ugly, frightened, and panicked!
"He, he...... Oh, thank God...... Ok, ok, I'll go over right away. ”
When Ye Wei put down the phone, he exhaled with his head up, his eyes were a little dull, and his right hand suddenly slammed into his chest, my fault, my fault!!
Knowing that his father's health is not optimistic, he still makes him so tired, and he still has a trace of luck, but he still lets him continue to ...... If something happens to Dad......!
"Ah!!" Ye Wei couldn't help but shout angrily, grabbed his phone, and got up to leave.
"Weige, what's the matter?" Suzanne looked surprised, the young man didn't look like a casual angry person.
Ye Wei looked at her, so anxious that he could barely speak completely: "I have to go, my father...... Got into the hospital, he's a dentist, he had operated on a patient before, and suddenly fainted, I don't know why, but it's not life-threatening, it's okay, I have to go......"
"Oh my God, God bless him, go quickly. Suzanne was also very worried, nothing is more important than family.
At that moment, Ye Wei ran outside the editing room.
......
In a single ward in the inpatient department of UCLA Medical Center in Santa Monica, Ye Haogen was lying on the hospital bed, already regaining his senses, except for his pale face, he seemed to be fine.
Gu Qiao was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking worried.
"I'm fine, I'm a doctor, I know my body, just get some sleep. Ye Haogen's voice was weak, and there was still a comforting smile on his face, "Qiao, it's really not strict, don't be like this, don't let the children worry." ”
Gu Qiao was about to say something, when the door of the ward was opened, Ye Wei rushed in, panting slightly, "Dad, are you okay?"
"Hey, I'm fine, I just can't watch the game all night haha. Ye Haogen said with a smile, cheering up.
"My God......" Ye Wei looked at the familiar picture in front of him, and some sad fragments of that nightmare suddenly appeared clearly in front of him, making him almost out of breath, trembling all over, and slowly walked over, "I'm sorry, old guy, I'm sorry......"
"I'm sorry what, son, I'm fine!"
Gu Qiao also forced a smile, "Your father is just tired and faint, and the CT results show that there is no cerebral hemorrhage, but he still needs to do some tests." ”
"What does the doctor say?" Ye Wei grabbed his hair helplessly, cerebral hemorrhage, this word was too terrible, even if he didn't, he trembled physically and mentally when he heard it, "Where is the doctor?"
"Am I not just......" Ye Haogen was still in the mood to joke, but Gu Qiao and Ye Wei couldn't really laugh, he said, "I can be discharged from the hospital tonight." ”
"Don't even think about it! Dad, just lie down here, find out the condition and cure it before you leave! Don't joke with your life, we care about you! And your clinic, I think it's going to be closed for a while, you need to recuperate! Also, you can't work like that anymore, you have to get back on track!"
Ye Wei said very excitedly, and suppressed his feelings, his slightly moist eyes flashed with self-blame, worry and sadness......
"I'm really a doctor, I've worked here before, and if I say it's okay, it's okay. Ye Haogen continued to comfort his family.
"Dad, Mom, don't be so tired of yourself, yes, we have an economic crisis, but we don't have to get food stamps right away!"
Ye Wei wiped his face, fuck the damn money! He opened his eyes wide, changed his mental outlook, and said solemnly to his parents: "It won't be long, next month, after the remake of "The Wedding is Coming" is screened, I promise that it will be fine, I promise." ”
Ye Haogen and Gu Qiao nodded silently, their hearts were full of guilt, they had heard him say this last year, and then he had changed a lot and fulfilled his promise, and now he ...... However, you are already under too much pressure that you shouldn't be undergoing and don't need more.
......
Dr. Li, an old friend and doctor in charge of Ye Haogen, said that it was syncope caused by overwork and high blood pressure, but fortunately, the rescue was timely and did not cause greater consequences, but his health really can't continue to work hard, and he must rest and recuperate.
"Weige, we've been friends for almost twenty years, and if you're in too much trouble, I can help. ”
In the corridor outside the ward, Dr. Li said this to Ye Wei in private, and his tone was helpless: "Haogen is a bull temper, Qiao has always listened to him, what is there to support like this? What is there to be ashamed of borrowing money from a friend? You are a man, you must understand that your father can't be like this, this time it is really lucky, if there is a next time, bad luck cerebral hemorrhage...... I don't dare to say what will happen, there is no small matter when you encounter a cerebral hemorrhage. ”
"I understand, I understand......" Ye Wei kept saying, his face full of determination, "I understand." ”
After staying in the hospital until the evening, Ye Wei and his mother went home together, and his father was hospitalized for observation.
When they returned to South Gretna Green Street, the two of them went to Mrs. Langdon's house to take Duoduo away, and she didn't know what had happened, and when she got home and couldn't see her father, she asked strangely, "Where's Daddy?" and Toto, who was also unaware, gathered around, sniffing at them strangely, and seemed to be a little puzzled.
"Dad is on a business trip these days and has to attend a medical conference. Ye Wei smiled at her, but her heart hurt.
"Oh!" Duoduo exclaimed with her round mouth open, with her own understanding, "Is a large group of dentists extracting teeth together?"
"Call him a doctor. Ye Wei rubbed her little head, "Brother go make a call." ”
As he walked to the backyard of the house, he took out his cell phone and called Gary Gozman, who was also connected when he came to the yard. He looked at the dark night sky and asked directly: "Gary, sue me, how much box office will be received during the screening week of "The Wedding Date" will have a small-scale release?
