"Hey, it's already three o'clock in the morning?" Yi Feiyang, who was sitting in front of the computer after a busy day, accidentally looked at the time in the lower right corner of the screen and realized that it was already past three o'clock in the morning. He put down the mouse, stood up and stretched out
After lazing around and throwing a few punches, he suddenly felt hungry and went around to look for something to eat.
Fortunately, the fat man Gao Jiabao hadn't finished eating some of the things he packed for him, so he just stuffed them into the microwave to heat them up. Then he poured a cup of hot water, took out the buns, and started eating them hungrily with the hot water in the cup.
Just as Yi Feiyang was eating heavily, his cell phone rang.
Yi Feiyang thought it was Hathaway calling. Recently, she always called him very late to "check" whether he was resting.
But when I took out my phone, I saw that the caller ID was Henry the Elephant.
Why would Henry call him at this time?!
Could it be that he was urging himself to edit the movie quickly and wait for it to be released?!
Yi Feiyang swallowed the bun in his mouth, answered the call in confusion, and said with a smile: "Hi, Henry, is it you? Why did you call me so early? It's only three o'clock in the morning!"
"Hi, Yi, yes, it's me." It was Henry the Elephant's voice, but it was a little breathless, "I'm sorry for disturbing your rest."
"Oh, it's nothing, I was eating just now."
"So how's the editing of your movie going?" The tone on the other end of the phone was a little weak.
Yi Feiyang gnawed on the buns and said, "It's okay. This job is a process of constant assembly, just like assembling a car. Now only the wheels are missing. Then we can run quickly." He smiled.
. said in an excited tone: "Hey, I've actually cut more than half of it. I expect you will be able to see the final film in two days."
"Ah, really?" Henry the Elephant didn't say "I'm looking forward to it" next, but sighed slightly and said, "But, I might not be able to see it."
Yi Feiyang frowned when he heard this, what happened to Henry? He put down the water glass and asked with concern: "How could it be, man, this is what you have been looking forward to, and I will invite you to the premiere!"
There was silence for a while, and finally he said: "Yi, I... am about to die."
Yi Feiyang was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Man, are you calling me just to make a joke in the middle of the night? This is not funny."
"I'm serious, Yi. I'm in the hospital now, and the doctor said I'm dying. Can you come and see me?" The voice over there became weaker and weaker, even a little breathless.
Only then did Yi Feiyang feel that something was wrong.
On the other end of the phone, Henry the Elephant said with his last voice: "I feel so lonely now, without a single friend!" Although he couldn't see the other person's face, Yi Feiyang could feel his sadness.
"Hang on, man, where are you? I'll be right there!"
…
St. Paul's Hospital is the most famous hospital in Los Angeles.
When Yi Feiyang drove to the hospital, Henry the elephant was lying on the bed in the intensive care unit, with an oxygen mask on his mouth, an IV drip on his arm, and his lonely eyes looking at the ceiling.
After not seeing each other for just a few days, Henry, the elephant who was originally extremely fat, had obviously lost weight. His face was gray and he looked very sick.
Seeing Yi Feiyang coming in, Henry the Elephant moved his lips, meaning to ask Yi Feiyang to take off his oxygen mask.
Yi Feiyang asked the nurse next to him and received permission. Then he helped Henry take off the oxygen mask.
"Hey, Yi, my man, I didn't expect you to come." Henry the Elephant tried his best to smile.
"How could this happen?" Yi Feiyang asked.
Henry smiled, "That damn doctor lied to me and said I could live for another two years, but it looks like he was obviously wrong!"
"It's already here, and you're still joking?"
"Man, relax, it's me who's going to die, isn't it? Ahem!" Henry said, "Actually, I've been waiting for this day, but I didn't expect this day... to come so soon."
Yi Feiyang didn't know what to say, so he could only comfort him: "Don't think so much, everything will be fine, and you will be discharged from the hospital soon."
Henry the Elephant shook his head, "I know my situation... I just slept for a while, and I dreamed of my wife and daughter, and they were waving to me... After so long, my daughter seems to have grown taller.
, she is almost a little beauty. I still remember how she hid her lost baby teeth under the pillow, saying that the tooth fairy would find her and help her fulfill her wish...Yi, you know the wish of my little cutie.
What is it?"
Yi Feiyang shook his head, "I don't know."
"Her wish is that one day I can lie down on the ground and be a big horse for her to ride... I have always been too fat and couldn't lie down... But now it's better, I seem to have lost a lot of weight, and I can let her ride..."
She is riding a big horse..."
Henry the Elephant's voice became weak and his breathing became a little rapid. Yi Feiyang hurriedly put an oxygen mask on his mouth and asked him to take a few deep breaths.
A drop of turbid tears slipped from the corner of the elephant Henry's eyes. He said: "Yi, I am really useless. I can't even satisfy my daughter's last wish. I am not a good father, nor a good husband, nor a good husband."
A good person...otherwise, he wouldn't have died so lonely..."
"Stop talking, man, aren't I still by your side? I said you will get better," Yi Feiyang said.
"No matter what, I want to thank you, dear Yi...Thank you for coming to see me, thank you for staying with me...To be honest, I am really scared, afraid that I will die quietly like this, like an insignificant piece of
Snowflakes melted on the earth as soon as the sun came out... But, thanks to you, it was you who let me know that helping people is so happy..." Henry the Elephant seemed to be looking much better, and his face was filled with joy.
With brilliance.
Yi Feiyang knew that he was returning to his former glory.
"I'm really happy. In the past few days, I saw people laughing and saying thank you to me... No one has ever said thank you to me, right?" Henry the elephant murmured, "Yes.
Hey, Yi, is it still snowing outside? Why can’t I hear the sound of snowflakes falling to the ground... Ahem, can you open the window? "
"The snow has stopped, Henry, you don't have to worry about the homeless people." Yi Feiyang understood what he was thinking.
"I...I really want to stand up and take a look at the people in need...Really, ahem, God, please forgive me!" His tears flowed out.
Yi Feiyang helped him wipe away his tears.
Henry's breathing became more and more rapid, and his eyes were fixed on Yi Feiyang. Yi Feiyang opened his mouth to call a doctor, but was held back by Henry the Elephant.
"No need... call. Yi, I... I want to ask you a question..."
"Well, you ask..."
"Am I...am I...a good person?"
Yi Feiyang really couldn't answer this question. He shook Henry's hand and finally said: "Man, you are a good guy among bad guys!"
Henry the Elephant smiled. He let go of Yi Feiyang's hand, and the lines of the heart sensor next to him made a beeping sound and became a straight line.
Henry the elephant left this world with a smile on his face.
Yi Feiyang held his hand and remained silent for a long time.
Outside the window, a snowflake floated in, and outside, it snowed again!
…
The death of Henry the Elephant did not cause any turmoil in Hollywood. This porn tycoon who once dominated the underground film world finally passed the last moment of his life with Yi Feiyang by his side.
He was a bastard, a villain and a pornographic leader in the eyes of many people during his lifetime. After his death, no one remembered him, and even the newspapers and magazines did not mention his death much.
He left in such obscurity.
He left so suddenly.
On the day Henry the Elephant passed away, Yi Feiyang met with the private lawyer he had entrusted.
The private lawyer told Yi Feiyang that Henry the Elephant had made a will and that the contract originally signed with Yi Feiyang would be implemented as planned. As long as the new movie is popular and the box office can exceed 10 million US dollars, then Top Film Company
It will transfer its eight cinema lines with a market value of US$30 million to Fantasy Film Company for a price of US$24 million.
When he heard this, Yi Feiyang understood that Henry the Elephant was a good friend. Even though he knew that he only had 24 million in funds, he very generously discounted the price by 6 million. He was indeed a good friend!
But then the private lawyer said that Top Film Company would obviously be dissolved, and he hoped that Yi Feiyang would take in those company employees for the sake of saving 6 million US dollars. Because Henry the Elephant felt that with so many people helping him for so many years, he
It would be unjust to just let them go. We must find a good place for them no matter what, and there is no doubt that Fantasy Pictures, which has been gaining momentum recently, is definitely a good choice.
This guy saved himself 6 million just to keep his employees!
Yi Feiyang was once again moved by Henry the Elephant's painstaking efforts.
In fact, even if Henry the Elephant didn't design it this way, Yi Feiyang would be obligated to help these people. What's more, his Fantasy Pictures had just been established and it was when they needed people.
Next, Yi Feiyang also learned that after Henry the Elephant passed away, in addition to part of his huge family property being distributed to some "relatives" who had no contact with him for a long time, the rest was established as a relief fund, which will be responsible for helping those in the future.
Homeless wanderers…
It can be said that Henry the Elephant has arranged his posthumous affairs so that at least he can smile when he goes to heaven.
Among these posthumous events, of course, there is also "Saving Rachel, a Female Soldier" that he has been thinking about but has not yet been officially released.
According to his personal lawyer, before Henry the Elephant was hospitalized, all preparations for the film's release had actually been arranged, including trial submission, theater arrangements, and press conferences...
Originally, Henry the Elephant was also going to attend the premiere press conference, but now, it is obvious that he cannot attend. (To be continued...)
