After the sun goes down, the evening wind begins to bring a chill.
In the hotel, the investors were still noisy and noisy. Occasionally, when it got heated, there could be sounds of banging the table and yelling.
It can be heard from a long distance away.
Obviously, this meeting was not a success.
An Xiao walked out of the house. Wearing a mask, she was like an iceberg, too cold to be approached.
She was defrauded of a total investment of two million!
As an investor and production company who has just entered the film and television industry and hopes to do something in this industry, this is actually a very demoralizing thing.
Investment analyst Xu Rui followed the female boss with his head lowered.
The people who clamored the loudest at the meeting and wanted the most compensation were the investors worth tens or hundreds of thousands.
From beginning to end, the female boss didn't say anything.
She just sat quietly in the main seat, watching all this silently, as if she was watching clowns one after another.
This made Xu Rui so nervous that he broke into a cold sweat.
He has a great responsibility in this matter, and he must take full responsibility!
He was the first to see the script "Under the Mine"!
This script was really well written, and the gimmicks in the script were also very good. It was suspenseful and focused on telling a story about a mine connecting to the underground world. He finished reading the script in one breath!
Moreover, the script is designed very carefully. In the last few pages, there is a composition of creatures in the underground world. Not only are the creatures in the composition very stunning, but they are also accompanied by a self-justifying theory of evolution!
He admits it!
He was hooked by the script.
He wants such a good script very much!
After reading the script, he read the plans of the two directors.
The script is perfect, and the plan is even more perfect. From the meticulous investment, to the shooting method, and the storyboarding mode, these are all professional-level!
After reading it, I wanted to applaud them.
He chatted with the two directors and found that the thin director named Liu Yi looked quite high-spirited and ambitious. He also had a strong ability to incite words and was easy to trust!
then!
He recommended this script to An Xiao!
Out of trust in him, An Xiao completely handed over the project, including subsequent review, to him, and granted him an initial investment of two million...
He allocated all the money to them!
To show his trust in them, he also allocated all the money to these two directors!
He expects them to achieve certain results!
instead……
No one knew that this was actually a scam, a scam that had been planned for a long time!
Except for the script, plan and some shooting equipment, everything is fake!
The director's certificate is fake, I don't know where it came from, the academic qualifications are also fake, the ID card is fake, and someone else's ID card was used. At the same time, the crew got together and promised to invite Han Chong and other young talents.
Participation in the show, the opening ceremony gimmick, including various preparations within the crew, financial details...
These are without exception!
It's all fake!
Moreover, this scam also involved the local publicity department of Xinyang County. The two scammers defrauded the Xinyang Propaganda Department of tens of thousands of yuan in film and television investment by using filming in local scenic spots in Xinyang as a gimmick.
Carefully recalling the investigation results told to him by the public security department, Xu Rui felt chills all over his body!
"I'm sorry... Mr. An." Xu Rui was ashamed.
Facing the tall figure in front of him, he lowered his head.
He wanted to slap himself hard!
"The script is okay." An Xiao's voice was very calm, making it difficult to tell what emotion he was feeling at this moment. He just said this inexplicable sentence lightly.
After saying that, she looked away.
After hearing An Xiao's answer...
Xu Rui's body stiffened.
He didn't know where to go.
Just when the atmosphere was depressing to the extreme, a light lit up in the corner of the parking lot, and then, a bright light flickered not far away...
Xu Rui raised his head.
That's where broken equipment and broken vans are piled.
It's so late, why is anyone still there?
…………………………
The night is as cool as water.
A gust of wind blew by, blowing Zhou Yang's thin suit.
Zhou Yang wrapped up his clothes.
He pulled the wiring board and set up the welding wires, and according to the circuit diagram, he began to carefully repair the camera in the drafty van.
He is very meticulous.
Checked the video signal part, system control part, synchronization generator, power supply part, mechanical part, and servo circuit of the camera one by one, and made full use of the characteristics of each small section in each area to skillfully compare around the clues of the fault phenomenon.
, through the measurement, analysis and comparison of instruments, the fault is divided into small segments from large areas, and a certain component is found from the small segments...
This kind of thing is very cumbersome, and most people will get dizzy when they see the densely packed components.
Moreover, it is purely a thankless task. It is easy to repair the external parts, but Zhou Yang does not understand the internal parts, especially the optical system. Even if he understands the circuit diagram, Zhou Yang cannot start.
Fortunately!
After careful inspection several times, Zhou Yang judged that the problem with the camera should be caused by external components, not the optical system. He only needed to remove some components from the scrap collection station and then solder them in place according to the circuit diagram.
Initial repairs can be completed.
Of course, this can only be fixed in theory. In fact, it has to be debugged over and over again until it is adjusted to the best condition.
He was immersed in it, carefully dismantling and welding, and observing every damaged pattern of the camera extremely carefully, almost simultaneously sketching out a large and detailed network circuit diagram in his mind...
"Why didn't you leave?"
At this moment, a cold voice sounded around.
He raised his head subconsciously.
Then……
He saw a pair of beautiful eyes with doubts.
"Go...where?" He became a little nervous.
"You can go anywhere. We know that you are one of the victims. You do not need to bear any responsibility. As for the debt agreement between you and the crew, it was signed by a scammer. It has no legal effect and does not count..." An Xiao continued calmly.
.
"I don't know where to go..." I don't know whether it was because he rarely talked to girls or for other reasons, but he instinctively lowered his head and looked at the camera.
"Go home and go where you want to go." An Xiao continued.
"..." Zhou Yang was silent.
Where can I go after leaving here?
The rental house has been moved...
He has no parents, no relatives, and his relatives and friends in his hometown don't like him very much, and they avoid him like the god of plague...
The night breeze blows lightly, and the chill is even worse, as if it is piercing the bone marrow.
"Can you repair these things?" An Xiao looked at the camera after seeing Zhou Yang hesitate to answer or look at herself.
"I...I tried my best to repair it, tried hard to repair it...although it may not be repairable, but at least it can be used..." Zhou Yang picked up the camera and carefully touched the holes in the camera that had been smashed.
He seemed to be answering An Xiao's words, but also seemed to be talking to himself.
"..."
An Xiao looked at this boy with his head lowered and about the same age as himself.
From the first moment she saw him, she felt that this boy had an indescribable sense of disharmony.
Wearing a cheap suit, jeans that are very mismatched and almost washed out white, and a pair of old-fashioned pull-back shoes on his feet...
His eyes were a little dodgey, as if he was a little inferior, but his waist was straight.
Even now sitting in the van, his waist is still straight.
silence.
After a long, long silence.
"Why do you want to repair them?" An Xiao continued to ask.
"I think it's a pity. The price they bought shouldn't be cheap..."
"Um?"
"Although they look shabby on the outside, many of them are intact inside. If nothing is done, they will probably end up being sold to scrap factories cheaply and reduced to scrap metal. But if I repair it,
, they can be used, although no one may think highly of them, and..."
"And what?"
"I don't like the feeling of giving up halfway..."
After saying this, Zhou Yang continued to repair the camera with his head down.
Started to get more serious.
……………………
The compensation meeting was still noisy.
It wasn't until early in the morning that the matter came to an end.
The investors cursed and left.
It was more of a venting meeting than a compensation meeting. All kinds of scoldings came one after another, and some people even scolded An Xiao's company.
Well, An Xiao's company is the producer of "The Mine".
However, I can only curse!
What can be done about this matter?
compensation?
Everyone is suffering, who can we ask for compensation?
An Xiao left the hotel conference room and found a random room to stay in.
This night, she actually didn't sleep well.
The hotel's air conditioner was too noisy, and the hot water was hot and cold. Most importantly, the quilt was not very clean, and I was not used to eating.
The conditions here are really bad.
The next day, before dawn, she packed her things and walked out of the hotel early.
Just as the car came over, she saw a camera set up next to the van.
Zhou Yang is adjusting the camera angle.
He didn't look very professional, but his eyes were very serious, as if he were treating some kind of artwork.
She looked at Zhou Yang in a daze.
After a minute or so, she saw Zhou Yang taking out a notebook, debugging it, picking up a pen and writing something, and nodded with satisfaction.
At this moment, An Xiao saw a Land Rover stop.
The Land Rover's door opened.
A middle-aged man with a big belly and a gold necklace walked out, and a young man wearing glasses.
"Director Zhou, that's awesome, I've fixed all this for you, haha..."
"Professional! Did you see, this is called professional! It is much more professional than those two scammer directors..."
"Hey, look at the professional data in this book, tsk tsk, it's amazing, Director Zhou..."
"By the way! Director Zhou, how are you thinking about the movie?"
"Shoot!"
"Don't worry about the movie being a failure. I'll pay for your movie. If you do me a favor, you can just fulfill Xiaoli's movie dream..."
"Let me tell you this, it doesn't matter if this movie isn't released, we can keep a copy as a souvenir..."
