"Director Zhou is a leader of the younger generation..."
"He is very talented and very responsible..."
"A few days ago, he had put forward many constructive suggestions on the script of "The Bottom of the Mine"..."
"In the crew, he works diligently and gets up before dawn every day to work. Some of the equipment in the crew is managed by Director Zhou. In addition, he is one of the most famous young experts in the field of performance execution...
"
"Director Hong thinks highly of him. At the same time, everyone in our crew respects him. He will be indispensable for future movie shootings..."
"..."
Countless eyes turned to Zhou Yang.
The setting sun in the distance once again dyed half of the sky red...
Zhou Yang was in a trance for a while.
Leading figure? Talent? One of the youngest experts in performance execution?
Constructive comments?
He heard many unfamiliar titles and also heard many inexplicable things.
etc!
Is this still me?
Didn’t you say you’d let me go up there and support you for a while?
How come...
Is this the case?
this moment……
He felt something was wrong!
He felt something was wrong!
Liu Yi is praising him, and praising him very high, praising him to a position that does not belong to him.
He wanted to refute, he wanted to clarify these things.
Or say in front of the camera, "I'm not, I'm just a worker."
He did say it.
But!
The microphone is not with him.
Liu Yi's loud voice also covered up his voice. Vaguely, you could only hear words like he was just a worker on the crew.
"Haha, Director Zhou is as humble as ever. It's rare to be so young and humble..."
"..."
Liu Yi said this with a smile on his face and drowned out Zhou Yang's voice.
Zhou Yang had no choice but to give up in the end. His character did not allow him to say more excessive and disruptive words.
This is inappropriate.
He could only decide to endure it for now and wait until the press conference was over before talking to Liu Yi about the matter.
This won't work.
After introducing himself, Zhou Yang saw that Liu Yi began to introduce Han Chong again, and also introduced some young talents and advertising stars around Han Chong.
They smiled at the camera, and suddenly many fans appeared outside the court and screamed. The sound made Zhou Yang's ears hurt...
Are these people so famous?
Afterwards, these celebrities shook hands with the staff one by one.
However, for some reason, Zhou Yang always felt that they were a bit mechanical...
It looks a bit mechanical, as if it is dealing with something.
After shaking hands, they walked off the stage with a smile and disappeared into the vast sea of people.
……………………
The opening ceremony ends with the opening banquet.
Zhou Yang originally wanted to talk to Liu Yi, but Liu Yi never gave him a chance. He just told him to eat first and then talk after eating.
And he kindly invited him to sit with the director team...
Didn't even give him a chance to refuse.
As they drank and drank, Zhou Yang felt more and more something was wrong...
Director Hong Xiang still looked cold as he ate the food, maintaining a character that Zhou Yang couldn't understand.
But the assistant director Liu Yi was just the opposite. Not only did he keep toasting to him, but he also said a lot of inexplicable words of thanks and compliments.
as if……
He is the core character of the entire crew.
After the toast, the leaders of the relevant departments also came. They toasted to the director team one by one. When they toasted Zhou Yang, they patted Zhou Yang on the shoulder and said something like "you are young and promising".
praise.
at the same time……
The propaganda department of Xinyang County also came to toast Zhou Yang and said some words of thanks.
They feel that if this movie can go abroad, it is the best publicity for the entire Xinyang County and is also their political achievement.
Zhou Yang was dizzy. Not only was he dizzy from drinking, but he was also overwhelmed by all the messy battles.
He felt as if he was sitting in a car, but this car didn't know where it was going...
Amidst waves of thanks and praises, he suddenly saw the bright light. This was a road he had never walked before.
But somehow, he felt like he was facing the cold abyss again. There seemed to be a huge monster in the abyss, devouring everything he had, leaving him nowhere to struggle.
He really couldn't tell whether all this was real or fake!
However, the wine on the table is really good!
It's Moutai!
It was the king of wines that Zhou Yang wanted to try, but couldn't even think of because of the price.
Inadvertently...
Zhou Yang looked at the table next door where Liu Yi often went.
The table next door is for investors. Most of the people are potbellied and seem to be coal bosses...
A coal boss also brought a woman with heavy makeup to toast Hong Xiang, hoping that Hong Xiang could take her to the movies.
Hong Xiang was as indifferent as ever, even frowning. He looked very artistic and did not go to drink.
His indifference made the coal boss respect him very much, and he even said that he would invest more.
"We are not doing it for money, we are doing it for art!"
"Yes, I know you are here for art, but I think Miss Zhong is also quite artistic, what do you think?"
"..."
Zhou Yang looked at the empty seats at the investors' table.
I heard that the largest investor did not come because of something else, so he only sent a person in charge to conduct an on-site inspection and left after the inspection.
Zhou Yang only watched for a while, but before he could take a closer look, Liu Yi and others persuaded him to drink again. The coal bosses also came over and put their arms around his shoulders, introducing those women with heavy makeup...
These people seem to be overly enthusiastic.
In addition to them, several extras also came to toast.
Especially the fashionable-looking woman Liu Tingting also came to Zhou Yang, drank the wine in one gulp, and said a lot of thanks, saying that she would work hard.
Even if Zhou Yang could drink, he wouldn't be able to withstand such a battle.
My stomach started to feel a little queasy.
When he stood up to go to the bathroom, he saw the assistant director Liu Yi coughing and laughing, staring at Liu Tingting's buttocks. He picked up the wine, approached her with a smile, put his arm around her shoulders, and seemed to chat with her about some movie knowledge.
.
At this moment, the "indifferent" director Hong Xiang frowned and walked over immediately, patting Liu Yi on the shoulder and pulling him back.
Liu Yi's eyes were obviously a little unwilling, but after facing Hong Xiang's eyes, he finally lowered his head.
Immediately afterwards, after using the toilet, Zhou Yang fell into a new round of being toasted.
The remaining consciousness told him that he needed to maintain his last sanity.
After the lively launch banquet was finally over, Zhou Yang ran to the bathroom again and vomited violently. He vomited several times and vomited out all the food he had eaten. Only then did he feel better.
After staggering out of the toilet, he found that most of the people at the Nuo University venue had left. In a daze, he saw a few waiters cleaning the place.
Seeing the messy food on the floor and the wine spilled everywhere, Zhou Yang felt an indescribable anger again.
never mind!
Out of sight!
……………………
The night is lingering.
When Zhou Yang arrived next to the hotel, he saw a commercial vehicle without a license plate parked on the roadside...
Being blown by the wind, he vomited some wine in the business car, causing his stomach to spasm.
After vomiting, he came to the corridor entrance of the hotel and saw that the lights in room 302 had been turned off.
In the past...
The two directors must be talking about the script at this time, and now...
You probably drank too much and went to bed early?
its not right!
In my impression, Director Hong Xiang and Hong didn’t seem to drink, and Director Liu Yi didn’t drink much, right?
Zhou Yang shook his head, his mind began to feel dizzy, and he felt like the world was spinning.
He drank a combination of red wine, beer and white wine...
This is really life-threatening!
He returned to his room...
Not long after he lay down, he heard the sound of a car engine.
It's late at night, who's driving?
Isn't the sound insulation effect too bad?
He closed his eyes.
Not long after...
And fell into dreamland.
He had a long dream.
In the dream, he seemed to be dreaming about the time when he first came to this world to study as a work-study student in college...
Then, he dreamed of his father on the hospital bed again...
It was a simple rental house.
It is so simple that it only has a bed, a few quilts, and some basic daily necessities...
His father held his hand, and his eyes as he lay dying seemed to contain apologies, self-blame, and despair...
And a trace of reluctance.
"child……"
"Yes, I'm sorry..."
"sorry……"
"sorry……"
"..."
My father seemed to say sorry repeatedly, but his voice became softer and softer...
Finally there was no sound.
……………………
"Boom boom boom!"
"Boom boom boom!"
"..."
Zhou Yang's dream was awakened by a knock on the door...
He opened his eyes.
Before he could react, he found himself surrounded by a group of policemen...
"He is an accomplice! He is one of the persons in charge..."
Although it was pleasant to listen to, a voice with a hint of sadness and anger reached Zhou Yang's ears.
He turned his head consciously...
Then!
He saw...
Um……
Saw a pair of big white legs that seemed to be shaking with anger?
