After receiving the text message, Lu Fei did not visit immediately.
These days, I stay in school and actively challenge the second model. Every now and then, Penguin will send me news about buybacks and investments.
Zeng Liqing approached Li Zekai, but after returning from Hong Kong, PCCW had nothing to say. It seemed that contact had been broken. However, it was Lu Huateng who was in charge of MIH, and the good news came like snowflakes.
Wang Dawei was very active, but he was too active. He secretly entrusted them to introduce Li Zekai and try to buy 20% of the money he had.
MIH doesn't dare to go to PCCW in private. He dares to do this under the nose of the major shareholder. Does he still want to get involved in the future? The major shareholder wants to squeeze out the smaller shareholder. I have 9 ways to kill him, 9 ways!
They had to agree and act as intermediaries, but Lu Fei had already taken action in advance and released smoke bombs to separate the information from Li Zekai and MIH. It was equivalent to the fog of war. He was the only one who opened the whole map and had a clear picture.
In this round of battle of wits, Lu Fei narrowly won. Damn it, none of them are fuel-efficient!
It is also Lu Huateng's fault. How can he raise 40% in the first round of financing? 20% of the equity must not fall into the hands of MIH, otherwise the absolute initiative in this round of investment will not be on his side.
I lowered my head and looked at the test paper full of words. It was boring. The business world was indeed more interesting than the question sea.
After spinning the ballpoint pen for a while, the bell finally rang.
Lu Fei gave Han Yu the key to lock his bicycle and asked him to help push his bicycle home. He drove a red Xiali and went straight to the real-life community of "Don't Talk to Strangers".
The crew got off work at this time, just in time for dinner.
When we arrived at An Jiahe's small bungalow in Meixiangnan, we arrived earlier than by chance. At this moment, the atmosphere was tense, but it was not between the characters in the play, but the entire crew who seemed to be at odds with Jiang Wei.
"Director Jiang, you are still filming. I think those scenes are cruel enough."
"Yes, this scene will definitely not pass the review. If it needs to be cut, just don't shoot it. It will put a huge psychological burden on the actor."
"..."
The soft-hearted male and female staff, including Xue Xiaolu, all tried to persuade Jiang Wei to use his magical powers and be merciful, just like they were trying to persuade Grandma Rong not to get an acupuncture.
Lu Fei walked up curiously and patted Tang Danian on the back, "Old Tang, what's going on?"
As a director, he assisted Jiang Wei, "The filming was so realistic that we all sympathized with it. I couldn't bear to let Zeng Li continue to act in the domestic violence scene."
"Is it cruel?"
"It's quite cruel. I can't even do it." Feng Yuanzheng turned his head and intervened in the chat.
Tang Danian immediately introduced him to both parties. When talking about Lu Fei's identity, he did not mention Mr. Lu, but called him Producer Lu.
This is the first time!
Feng Yuanzheng looked weird, grateful and troubled, with complicated eyes, and said quietly: "Producer Lu, I really thank you! You recommended me for such a role."
"Teacher Feng, please don't thank me. I wouldn't recommend it to ordinary people."
Lu Fei curled his lips, and then learned the ins and outs from their mouths. The last scene before leaving work was mainly——
Mei Xiangnan suffered from domestic violence twice, thinking that compromise would bring back An Jiahe's sincerity, so she quit her job to become a housewife. However, An Jiahe got even more serious and called the women's help hotline in depression. When she was pouring out her sorrow, she was caught by An Jiahe who was off work.
.
If they don't agree with each other, they will commit more brutal domestic violence.
Punches, kicks, slaps are all light, and there are also stomps on the face...
"It's not a real fight, it's a borrowed position. These are real situations of domestic violence. Men will never show mercy when they commit violence. Only such impactful scenes can arouse social vigilance."
Jiang Wei did not give in and said, "Zeng Li, are you willing to give it a try?"
Zeng Li glanced at the large bag of edible plasma on the table and was in a dilemma. She was now suffering from long-term mental stress and physical and mental exhaustion. She was like a tight string. The pressure of domestic violence escalated inadvertently. This string
It might break.
"Forget about stepping on your face, you can use props."
Lu Fei snapped his fingers, and with everyone's attention, he pushed the small glass table next to the sofa and shook it.
"There was a fish tank with goldfish on it. During the beating, the camera cut to the fish tank, and it was overwhelming. When the beating reached its peak, the fish tank was shattered and the goldfish were flopping on the ground."
After a while of dictation, everyone's minds were filled with images.
How cruel! (Voice: Sun Honglei)
Tang Danian agreed: "This is a good idea. It eliminates the need for fake fights, makes it easier for the camera to get through, and can also reduce the psychological harm to Zeng Li."
Zeng Li was relieved in her heart and looked at Lu Fei as if she were looking for a savior: "Director Jiang, if this is the case, I can do it!"
Jiang Wei immediately said with joy: "Props team, go find the goldfish and the fish tank. The scene is finished and we will get off work today."
………
The shooting went extremely smoothly and the key atmosphere was in place.
Feng Yuanzheng, who plays opposite Zeng Li, completely grasps the role of An Jiahe. He can't get into the scene for even one second. His perverted and twisted psychology is displayed in front of everyone with ecstasy.
"Didn't I tell you not to talk to people casually?"
Zeng Li's nose and mouth were bleeding, her face was dazed, as if she had been slapped hard, her mind went blank, and she cried bitterly.
The photographers, sound recordists, and lighting technicians all immediately felt sympathy, and the female staff simply turned their heads away, unable to bear to look directly at them.
"Tell me, are you addicted to talking to men?"
Feng Yuanzheng's tone was strange and his voice became shriller and shriller. He grabbed Zeng Li's hair with one hand and pinched her neck with the other, shaking her hard.
The violent movement affected the fish tank on the table, and the water inside splashed everywhere.
Then, he "hardly" grabbed Zeng Li's head, smashed it against the fish tank, and gritted his teeth: "Speak, why don't you talk to me!"
Bang, the fish tank shattered all over the floor again.
The goldfish lay on the ground full of debris again, flopping around, regardless of whether the fish could bear it or not. Fortunately, the fish only had a memory of 3 seconds.
"Click!"
Jiang Wei shouted stop, and Lu Fei watched the replay absentmindedly, his eyes looking at Zeng Li. She had tears on her face. It didn't look like she was performing, but she looked like she was really crying.
I saw the crowd of people gathered away from Feng Yuanzheng one by one, their eyes full of contempt, disgust and hatred. No one wanted to pay attention to him, and they tacitly isolated him.
On the contrary, Zeng Li looked like a crying little girl. I felt pity for her. Everyone looked at her with gentle and pitiful eyes.
From removing makeup to leaving work, there are always people greeting and caring. She is simply the favorite of the crew.
"Sister Zeng Li, do you feel better?" Lu Fei asked.
"I'm fine. It wasn't a real beating. Teacher Feng was very polite. I didn't use any strength. I just accidentally drank a lot of blood plasma and there is a taste in my mouth."
Zeng Li drank the mineral water in sips. After saying a few words, she drank half the bottle of water. Her throat was extremely uncomfortable and she felt slightly nauseous.
She even invited Lu Fei to eat Zhizi BBQ. The unique sesame sauce aroma of the shaobing, paired with the sizzling and oily barbecue, was just one word——
taste!
However, Lu Fei declined.
Fire-roasted smoke, coriander, onion, cumin pepper, heavy ingredients and salty taste, it is delicious, but it is so sweet and salty, can Zeng Li have the appetite to eat it?
She said in surprise: "You don't like to eat, don't you? I asked Director Tang whether this Zhizi barbecue is your favorite."
"Hey, I like to eat a lot."
Lu Fei waved his hand and excused himself: "Sister Zeng Li, we Yanjing gentlemen don't care what we eat, we all eat according to the season, there is a saying, just like after the dog days of summer, the golden breeze is getting cooler, we should put on the autumn fat, eat roasted and boiled
, this is called an authentic one.”
"You mean now is not the season for eating Zhizi barbecue?"
"That's right!"
Lu Fei gestured like a stubborn leader of Yanjing and gave a thumbs up, "Not to mention the most famous barbecue restaurants back then were Wan, Barbecue Season, and Chen's Barbeque Restaurants, or Tonghexuan, Liangyixuan, Xilaishun, and Zhengyanglou.
, you must wait until the beginning of autumn, when you can hear the chirping of autumn insects, before eating this roasted meat."
Zeng Li's eyes flickered. She didn't know that he was looking for a step for her, and she felt a little warmer in her heart. "I'll take my wallet here to you today. What do you think we should eat?"
"I just want to eat something light today."
Lu Fei smiled and said, "Let's go eat fried noodles."
"Eating fried noodles?" Zeng Li was speechless.
“Refreshing, cool and smooth, appetizing and quenching cravings.”
Lu Fei took the decision directly and took Zeng Li to take a taxi to a familiar Fly Restaurant. They had fried noodles with a few home-cooked dishes and ate them with gusto.
Zeng Li looked at his mouth full of sauce and had a huge appetite. While eating, she said: "Thank you, junior, I am not in good condition today, so this meal does not count. I will treat you to a big meal another day."
"Don't mention it, this meal is about food and people."
Lu Fei finished the noodles in the bowl and said, "If you eat it with a beautiful woman like you, it will be beautiful and delicious, and everything you eat will taste delicious!"
"Pfft."
Zeng Li was not disgusted at all when she heard about the "big beauty" he talked about so much. Instead, she felt like laughing inexplicably.
"You have a smooth tongue and you will definitely deceive a lot of girls if you get into a Chinese drama."
"Do I still need to lie?"
Lu Fei raised his eyebrows, "I am the most powerful aphrodisiac in the world when I stand, I love a stick, vomit~"
Zeng Li laughed, the smile on her lips getting thicker and thicker, her whole body became relaxed, and the pressure accumulated in her heart due to the domestic violence scene was released little by little.
"That's right, Sister Zeng Li, you are so miserable in the movie, but you should be happy and balanced physically and mentally outside the movie."
Lu Fei picked his teeth with a toothpick, "I heard from Director Xue that you are too involved in the drama. You often have nightmares recently and can't get rid of the shadow?"
"It's not that exaggerated, occasionally." Zeng Li crossed her arms uneasily.
"After we finish eating, let's go have some tea."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Fei settled the account before Zeng Li, and then led her around to an alley.
In the quiet old street, two figures, one after the other, floated away on the mottled wall.
Zeng Li felt strange, trotted after him, and then stopped at an inconspicuous dilapidated old house.
But as soon as you enter the door, there are two completely different feelings inside and outside. The decoration is exquisite, quiet and indifferent, and antique.
"How did you find it here?" Zeng Li asked curiously.
"Oh, I had tea here with my friends."
Lu Fei invited the president of the Agricultural Bank of China here and skillfully booked a private box.
"Tea is a good thing. It is born between heaven and earth. It captures the spirit of mountains and rivers, contains the essence of the sun and moon, bathes in spring and autumn, and possesses all five elements. Sister Zeng Li, you should try their tea here. It is quite good."
Zeng Li shook her head apologetically: "I've been a little insomniac lately. If I drink tea again, I won't be able to fall asleep."
"Then drink jasmine green tea to relieve fatigue and help you sleep."
Lu Fei ordered a few more snacks, "It seems that you suffered a lot from playing 'Mei Xiangnan'."
"It's not like I'm suffering, it's just a bit of mental pressure."
"Every hardship will be rewarded. Sister Zeng Li, this role of Mei Xiangnan may not only make you famous in one drama, but also broaden your acting career."
