prodigal director

Chapter 59 Live to be 100 years old

Li Xian is an old actor who has been playing tricks for five years. Not long after graduating from high school, he embarked on the road of group acting.

Like most of the extras, he thought that he was pretty good-looking and that as long as he worked hard for two or three years, he would have the chance to become a star and play a leading role. However, the cruel reality told him that there were many people in the extras who were more handsome than him. Yes, his acting skills are better than his, and there is no shortage of people with more talents than him!

So, five years have passed.

He is still running the part-play day after day, and he hasn't even played a part-play role with lines a few times.

This sad life of a minor player was exactly what Hao Huan learned about while chatting with Li Xian while eating a box lunch.

After playing the devil, Hao Huan asked, "Brother Li, can you lend me your cell phone? I don't have a cell phone with me."

Li Xian didn't think too much. He took out his phone to unlock it with his fingerprint, and then handed it to Hao Huan.

Looking at the software on the phone, Hao Huan was shocked again, because he saw that there was also a chat software called "WeChat" on Li Xian's phone.

It's just that the icon is different from the WeChat he often uses. When he clicks on it, he sees that the functions are not much different. They are all used for chatting and online payment.

He asked, "Can I log out of your account and log in to mine?"

Li Xian said politely: "It's okay, just quit."

Hao Huan clicked to switch accounts, and then tried to log in to his own account to see if there would be a miracle.

In the end, a miracle really happened!
Account login successful!

There is no need to verify a mobile phone number or answer verification questions. The WeChat account he uses in real life can actually log in to WeChat in this world!

However, Hao Huan soon discovered that the account number was different. Although it showed a successful login, there was no friend in the address book, the avatar was empty, and even the WeChat name was an original string of letters and numbers.

Hao Huan tried again.

With a sudden thought, he designated the daily quota of 16 yuan accumulated in the system to be recharged into his WeChat account.

In the next second, the balance of the WeChat wallet changed from 0 to 16!
This is equivalent to proving that I am indeed in a virtual world now!
Because the daily quota given by the system cannot be used for cash transactions, Hao Huan can only recharge on entertainment consumption platforms, such as live broadcast platforms, novel websites, and so on.

But here, the daily quota can be recharged to WeChat and used for direct transactions!This may be because he is in a virtual world, or maybe the daily quota is indeed a subsidy function launched for the director training camp.

Hao Huan didn't think much about it anymore. Now that he has money, it will be much easier!
After returning the phone to Li Xian, Hao Huan walked towards the two old crowd.

"Hi master, do you have any filming tomorrow?"

The old man looked at Hao Huan and said, "No tomorrow."

Hao Huan invited: "That's great. I'm actually a director. There is a film that lacks two old people. If it's convenient for you, can you come to my place to shoot a scene tomorrow?"

"What play?" the old man asked.

Hao Huan said: "You play a grandpa who is seriously ill, and if this grandma is acceptable, she will play your wife."

The old man said happily: "No need to act, she is my wife."

Hao Huan was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Then you two are perfect!"

The old woman asked: "Young man, when will your play be performed tomorrow?"

Hao Huan said: "Tomorrow noon, I won't treat you badly in terms of salary. How about you two calculate 1 yuan a day?"

The old man was surprised: "1 yuan? Are you sure you want to pay us so much?"

Hao Huan nodded and said, "Yes, I'm sure."

The old woman said hesitantly: "Young man, you don't need to pay so much money. Just pay us the money of ordinary group performances. We don't make a living by acting. We just dreamed of acting when we were young. Now we are old. I don’t have anything to do, and the film and television city is not far away? So I came out to pick up a play and realize our dream of being an actor when we were young.”

The old man Hao Huan envied, if he hadn't rebelled against his father and went to Beijing Film Academy to make movies, maybe he would only want to realize his youthful dreams when he was old and had nothing to do, right?

It's just that he doesn't know if he has the life to live to be 80 years old.

Seeing the two elders enjoying acting and life, Hao Huan said enviously: "Then how can I contact you?"

The old man said: "You write down my number and give us a call before the shooting starts. As long as the shooting is here, we can arrive within an hour."

Hao Huan said awkwardly: "I didn't bring my mobile phone. By the way, do you use WeChat? If so, you can add my WeChat account."

The old man said: "The old lady plays WeChat. She often posts photos of us filming on that circle of friends!"

After adding the other party's WeChat account, Hao Huan left the anti-Japanese crew contentedly.

Next, he has to buy a mobile phone in this world!

So, after he left Hengdian Film and Television City, he bought a mobile phone at a mobile phone shop in the outer street, and at the same time, he bought a mobile phone card.

It may be because the system has set the world background, so the WeChat he uses here does not require real-name verification, and he does not need real-name registration to buy a mobile phone card.

It’s as if it’s just to make it easier for him to move here!So you don’t even need to show your ID card to get a room in a hotel.

"It feels good to stay here for a while! It's like traveling, and you can relax."

In the hotel room, Hao Huan was writing the script on his mobile phone.

Hao Huan wrote a short story that had been brewing in his head for a long time in less than three hours.

The script of the short film is called "Live to 100", a true story based on the experience of grandparents.

He took his mobile phone and sent a message to Li Xian, wanting to rent a camera and some photography props.

Fortunately, Li Xian didn't have such a trick for so many years. He introduced a photography team to Hao Huan, and he could contact him if he wanted to cooperate or rent a camera.

So, the next morning.

Hao Huan borrowed photography equipment. He found a "hospital" in the film and television city, which has various medical simulation props. He rented a "ward" and started shooting short films at any time.

after an hour.

The two old men supported each other and rushed to the set. Hao Huan had sent them the script in the morning. I wonder if they could handle this scene.

The old man walked in, looked at Hao Huan alone and the only camera, and said dumbfounded, "Where are the rest of the crew? Why is there only one camera?"

Hao Huan coughed and said, "The crew is filming in another place. You are acting in a plot outside the theater. I can handle it alone, so there is no need to mobilize the crowd."

The old man was skeptical, but since they all came, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and act.

What's more, they also want to perform this scene well, because this story has completely moved them.

The old man changed into his hospital clothes and was lying on the hospital bed. After the oxygen machine props and infusion props were installed, the filming of this short film has already started.

In addition to the old couple, there was also an extra doctor and a nurse on the scene.

After checking the old man's physical condition, the doctor said: "The patient's condition is not very good. Whether he can get out of danger depends on the patient's reaction. If the patient wakes up, remember to notify the medical staff as soon as possible."

The old woman stood by, holding the old man's hand and trembling with worry.

After a while, she leaned over and fell down. The nurse who had just passed by hurried in, and then ran out to call the doctor over.

Fortunately, the old woman just passed out due to overwork and worry, but when she fell down, the old woman hit her head, which may cause a concussion or even cerebral congestion.

Camera switch.

The old woman was also hospitalized. She asked to live with her husband. The two hospital beds were close to each other. She stretched out her right hand, just enough to hold her husband's left hand.

Soon.

The old man woke up in a daze, his lips moving as if he wanted to say something, but no words came out.

The old woman felt the old man's hand moving. Lying on the bed, she called out to the doctor, and the doctor and nurse rushed in immediately.

The old woman held the old man's hand hard and shouted with a trembling voice: "Old man, open your eyes!"

The old man became conscious, and his mouth responded with huh huh.

The old woman is still shouting: "Open your eyes, we will live to be 100 years old! We will live to be 100 years old!"

The old man's mouth trembled and squirmed, and he had thousands of words in his heart, but he could only respond with um um ah ah ah.

The doctor checked the old man's condition, and saw that the green curve on the ECG monitor gradually turned into a red straight line.

The old woman lying on the bed next door held the old man's left hand even harder, and tears flowed down from the corners of her eyes unconsciously, soaking the pillow.

She was still muttering: "Old man, it's okay, you will live to be 100 years old..."

　Sorry for the late update, I hope everyone is in good health and lives a long life.
