Zuo Le, whose face was red from drinking, called a driver for Fatty Chen. He told Fatty Chen his address, and the driver sped away in Fatty Chen's SUV.
Zuo Le himself strolled slowly along the road, blowing the evening breeze wantonly.
five minutes later.
Zuo Le felt the turbulence in his stomach, and hurriedly took out the garbage bag he had prepared long ago from his pocket, opened his mouth, bent over and vomited wildly.
Ugh~
After a while, Zuo Le vomited out the dirt in his stomach, neatly tied a knot in the garbage bag, took out a new garbage bag, put it on, and threw it into the trash can.
Later, Zuo Le found a convenience store on the street, bought a bottle of water, rinsed his mouth and washed his hands, and after everything was cleaned up, his face, which had just been a little confused due to drunkenness, instantly became much more energetic.
In fact, the above-mentioned behaviors that ordinary people find confusing are actually tips for hangovers that Zuo Le spent four years at the University working out.
He doesn't drink much. Whenever he goes out to socialize, he will easily drink too much. Whenever he drinks too much, his stomach will feel very uncomfortable. Unless he vomits it out, he won't even be able to sleep well at night.
Therefore, every time Zuo Le drank too much, he would go outside to blow the wind and deliberately induce vomiting.
After he finished vomiting and his stomach felt better, he went back to rest.
Of course, this method is definitely harmful to the body, especially the heavy burden on the stomach, so Zuo Le rarely drank alcohol in his later years in college. When he went to work, he could hide and avoid alcohol bars.
Today, Zuo Le was happy because he got to taste his long-cherished wish. He drank too much for a while. Normally, he wouldn't have found fault...
****
Zuo Le, who had emptied the wine in his stomach and felt much relaxed, did not choose to continue blowing wind on the road. He called a taxi and returned directly to his residence.
Fengyuan Community
Located on Zongshi Road, XC District, Quancheng, it was originally a teacher dormitory area. Later, as the schools were merged and demolished to other places, it was directly converted into a residential building on the original site. It is one of the more well-known old communities in XC District.
Today, there are not many original old residents in Fengyuan Community, and most of them are tenants like Zuo Le.
After scanning the code and getting out of the car, Zuo Le came to Unit 2 of Building 3, glanced at the unit light at the door that had not been repaired for half a year, and plunged into the darkness.
After a moment, with a dull sound of stomping feet, the voice-activated light on the first floor gave off a faint light.
The houses in Fengyuan Community are all six floors, and the house Zuo Le rents is on the fifth floor. Every time he goes home, he has to climb a difficult climb first.
If it's dark, you have to turn on your mobile phone to light up, because in addition to the broken door unit light on the first floor, the voice-activated lights on the third and fourth floors of the building are also in a scrapped state...
"Huchihuchi..."
Perhaps because he drank a lot of wine, Zuo Le was extremely tired climbing the stairs today. When he arrived in front of his house on the fifth floor, he was sweating on his forehead.
After taking a breath, Zuo Le took out the key, opened the door and entered the house.
Different from the ordinary bachelors who rent a single room, the house Zuo Le rents has two bedrooms, one living room, a kitchen, a bathroom and a balcony. It is more than 90 square meters and is quite spacious.
Well……
It's not that Zuo Le has a lot of money. In fact, he and another college classmate rented this house together at the beginning, sharing the rent for water and electricity equally.
About half a year ago, that classmate returned to his hometown to take the civil service exam and no longer worked in Quancheng, leaving Zuo Le alone in this house.
Zuo Le, I guess, is not used to sharing a house with strangers... to be precise, strange men, but such a good thing as sharing a house with a girl is not his turn.
Coupled with the fact that he was suffering from advanced cancer and thought it would be troublesome to find another house and move, he simply lived in luxury and lived alone in a "mansion".
Fortunately, Fengyuan Community is an old community and the rent is relatively not very high. Zuo Le has worked for several years and has some savings to support the rent at this level.
…
Throwing the key on the shoe cabinet, Zuo Le kicked his left and right feet together, took off his shoes that had been stepped on all day, and got into the bathroom wearing slippers.
Wow~
After taking a comfortable shower and wiping his hair, Zuo Le, shirtless, lay comfortably on the sofa playing with his mobile phone.
Looking at the time, he realized that it was just ten o'clock. Zuo Le opened Chou Tuan's takeout and ordered a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge for himself as a midnight snack.
When I was "sobering up" just now, I vomited everything I ate and had no food in my stomach. I easily woke up from hunger at night. The experienced Zuo Le naturally had to take precautions...
After placing the order, Zuo Le started to check his mobile phone while waiting for the takeout. This is a required course for him before going to bed every night. If it is a weekend, he often has to go to class.
Clicked on Fetion and entered the Moments. Zuo Le took hold of his hand to refresh the page. The first item that popped up was the update just posted by Fatty Chen's wife.
[My daughter is really her father’s caring little cotton-padded jacket]
There is a photo below. Fatty Chen is sleeping soundly on the bed, and a fat girl of five or six years old is covering him with a blanket with her feet up.
Tsk~
Zuo Le was a little envious, reached out to give a like, and typed a comment.
[Lingling is great, Brother Chen is so lucky]
Almost within a few seconds, Fatty Chen's wife replied to Zuo Le.
[Thank you, Xiaozuo (smiley face)]
Zuo Le did not continue to reply, but continued to scroll down the circle of friends, but unfortunately, there were not many nutritious updates, whether they were online merchants, advertisements, or a few shocking public account articles.
Zuo Le ignored them all, and then moved on to Zhihu, Bibo, Coin Station, and at a certain point, he browsed several commonly used software. There was a knock on the door and the takeaway arrived.
It’s midnight snack time!
Putting away his mobile phone, Zuo Le took the takeout from the delivery man, came to the dining table, opened the package, and then opened "Underground Traffic Station" in his mind with familiarity, drinking porridge and watching the drama.
This is Zuo Le's habit of eating alone. He likes to eat while watching TV series or movies, and feels that this makes him appetizing.
In the past, when there was no golden finger, Zuo Le always used his mobile phone or tablet to eat. Now with the video player in his mind, not only is it more convenient to eat and watch movies, the viewing effect is also great.
Not to mention the infinite widescreen and extreme field of view, the video quality is extremely clear and can be said to be every detail, and the sound effects far exceed Dolby Eight Streets.
When you want to fast forward, change episodes, or adjust the volume, brightness, and barrage settings, you don’t need to make manual adjustments at all. You can operate freely with just a thought. Not only does it save worry and effort, the accuracy is even more frightening.
And the most important thing is that a high-quality sitcom like "Underground Station" is quite satisfying.
In the two months since Zuo Le won the Golden Finger, he has gained nearly five pounds and has become a gold medal VIP customer of the donkey meat restaurant on the street.
"Underground Traffic Station" has made great contributions and is indispensable...
…
"We are all sharpshooters, every bullet kills an enemy..."
With the ending song of an episode, Zuo Le swallowed the last mouthful of porridge and briefly cleaned up the trash. Zuo Le turned off the video player in his head and looked at the time. It was almost twelve o'clock.
I have to go to work tomorrow and sleep!
Zuo Le turned off the light in the living room, returned to the bedroom, lay on the bed and closed his eyes, trying to fall asleep, but there was always a sense of excitement in his heart that prevented him from sleeping peacefully.
After tossing and turning for half an hour, Zuo Le, who really couldn't sleep, got out of bed and sat down at the computer desk.
Since you can't sleep, then work overtime for a while!
In the past, it was okay to be lazy when fighting against others. This time, it is your turn to shoulder the burden. If you don't work hard, you will be cheating yourself...
After giving himself a mouthful of salty chicken soup, an energetic Zuo Le turned on his computer, created a new document, and began to think about how he would shoot "Underground Traffic Station" after the project was approved.
Looking at the blank document in front of him, Zuo Le pondered for a moment and took the lead in typing out a few words about venue setting.
"Underground Traffic Station" is a sitcom with the background of the Anti-Japanese War, and it must be set in the era of the Republic of China.
This is quite simple. Generally, large-scale film and television cities will have venues with themes about the Republic of China. Dongshantai has produced many anti-war dramas in the past and has cooperated with many film and television cities. Requesting a venue is just a matter of words.
However, Zuo Le didn't think it was so troublesome. He had played "Underground Traffic Station" more than a dozen times and knew that "Underground" required very few scenes.
Dingxiang Building lobby, backyard, several bedrooms, guest rooms, Kuroto and Nojiri offices, plus a gendarmerie torture room.
These places already constitute 90% of the scenes of this drama. At most, one street scene can be added. There is no need to rent a special venue in the film and television city.
Just find a suitable studio and it can be used with a few modifications.
In this way, the venue expenses can undoubtedly be reduced a lot and can be used for other aspects.
You know, Zuo Le has heard everything from Lao Fang. A new director like him is taking the helm for the first time. Even with the bonus of "New Power", the filming funds obtained are by no means sufficient.
Therefore, as long as the studio can meet the requirements for shooting, Zuo Le feels that it can save a fortune...
…
Of course, since it is his debut novel after all, Zuo Le still has certain pursuits, and it is not just to save money.
The venue was just a non-hard requirement. He didn't dare to be careless about props, costumes, makeup, and photography.
He planned to let Fatty Chen, who had everything he wanted to do in the center, to take action and directly poach a few good actors from other crews in the station to form a strong team and jointly create a high-quality "Underground Traffic Station".
Well, this saves a lot of money compared to finding someone by himself. After all, the people he hires from the station are paid by the station, so the crew just needs to send a special red envelope...
After getting these things done, the only important thing left for Zuo Le is the casting of actors.
In addition, logistical chores, including crew accommodation, actors' remuneration, signing of various contracts, crew cars, extras, and even food and lunch boxes, and other miscellaneous matters are all under the control of the producer, Fatty Chen.
Yes, before getting off work today, Fatty Chen specifically went to find Fang Weimin and successfully secured the position of producer of "Underground Traffic Station". As soon as the project is approved by the company, the two brothers will take up the post immediately.
This was also done deliberately by Fang Weimin. After all, Zuo Le was directing for the first time and might not have enough experience. With the help of an old producer like Fatty Chen, he could save a lot of trouble.
At the wine table before, Zuo and Chen had already agreed that each would be in charge of a separate stall.
Zuo Le is responsible for content shooting and post-editing, while Fatty Chen is responsible for logistics support and financial review.
As for the early preparations of the crew and future distribution, because there were too many involved, the two people discussed it.
Therefore, the plans Zuo Le is currently making are only preliminary ideas. They will have to discuss them with Fatty Chen and then implement them based on the situation.
…
Crackling……
There was a sound of typing on the keyboard, and Zuo Le wrote down some of his thoughts about the crew's preliminary preparations. He was about to consider the casting again, when he suddenly yawned.
I raised my head and glanced at the time in the lower right corner of my computer. It was already half past one in the morning.
Thinking that he would have to go to work tomorrow, Zuo Le did not stay up late and saved the unfinished documents to his mailbox. He went to the living room and poured a glass of water. He drank half of the glass, climbed into bed, turned off the light and went to sleep.
That night, Zuo Le had a dream. He dreamed that he had become a nationally famous director and that many beautiful girls were interested in him.
Early the next morning, Zuo Le, who had enjoyed a good night's sleep, changed into new sheets with a frown...
