I want to die every day [entertainment circle]

In the afternoon of autumn, the weather has not really turned cold, but in the evening, the temperature drops rapidly, and the yellowish sunlight loses its vitality almost instantly, and is firmly blocked by the heavy curtains.In this room, only a small bedside lamp was on, and the light was dim, and a computer desk full of instant noodle boxes and a messy bed could be vaguely seen.The space is quite large, and it can be imagined that the owner of the room is the kind of person who has a low income but can barely make ends meet.

"Xi—Yan—"

Suddenly, a doorbell rang that could be compared to the barking of a mad dog, and the loud voice of the person who came was so loud that it was so clear that it could be mixed with the doorbell.

The "human-shaped object" wrapped in the messy quilt silently shrank a little, and had no intention of opening the door at all.

"Don't pretend to be dead for me! I know you're inside!" Li Tao jumped angrily outside the door. Although the words were harsh, there was a bit of sorrow and anger at his misfortune, "Isn't it just being directed by Zhang Anguo A few words of cynicism, what is his identity, what is your identity, the first-line big star can't afford to provoke him, other directors even postponed the schedule so as not to collide with his film, you are not unconvinced if you are laughed at by him , if you are really uncomfortable, get up and show him the prize for making a good movie!"

The person on the bed threw the quilt violently—but instead of getting up, he threw the blanket over his head again, turned over and continued to pretend to be dead.

"Okay, you, you even ignore me, do you think I really can't help it!" Li Tao fumbled in his bag for a long time, finally found a spare key that was pressed at the bottom, and opened the door angrily .

Without even bothering to change his shoes, Li Tao went straight to Xiyan's bedroom, pulled Xiyan up with a quilt, wishing he could slap him awake.

Xi Yan and Li Tao have been good buddies since childhood. Both of their parents passed away early. The two have hardly been separated from wearing crotch pants to going to college. They treat each other like brothers.The editor and director of university studies are also together.Three years ago, they had achieved good results in a micro film competition, and they officially entered the entertainment industry as directors.It's a pity that although the two are young and talented, they have no experience, no relationship, and no financial resources, so they are struggling in the entertainment industry.Fortunately, the two encouraged each other and neither gave up easily.

The emperor paid off. Not long ago, Dongfang Qianjin Entertainment asked two people to sign a contract. Although Dongfang Qianjin Entertainment is a new company with no deep foundation, it is enough to make them excited.However, the conditions offered by the other party were too harsh, almost overlord's terms. Xiyan said that it would be better to set up a studio by himself than to sign this kind of company.

The person in charge of the other party looked at them and sneered: "If you have no money and no name, do you open a studio with a mouth? Why don't you sign with our company, so that you don't even have a meal!"

Li Tao thought for a long time, but finally had no choice but to sign the contract.Xiyan insists on his integrity, even though he is unknown now and can only eat fast food instant noodles to save rent and three meals, he does not want to cooperate with this kind of unconscionable person, and the two parties broke up unhappy.

Since then, Xi Yan, who was depressed and frustrated, became more and more depressed, and he was completely closed these days. Li Tao was afraid that this guy would be overwhelmed. Yan.

Uncovering the quilt, Li Tao looked at Xiyan's two big dark circles unsuspectingly, and immediately called out "ancestor" in shock: "Damn you, why did you do this!"

Xiyan was leaning against the pillow like a puddle of mud, her hair was drooping one by one, her eyelids seemed to be closing but they couldn't close them, the beard stubble appeared on her chin, one side of her face was pale, The other face was sallow, and looked almost like a dying man at first glance.

He seemed to be in a bad mood right now and his face was expressionless, but in fact he was so lifeless that he didn't have the energy to make an expression.

Xiyan is not from this era.He originally lived on the earth hundreds of years later. He was a carefree student of the Academy of Fine Arts. He painted and painted every day. He never thought that such a mysterious thing would happen to him.Life is going well, and suddenly one day, all TV channels, radio stations, and webcasts have become one content—announcement of the end of the world!He was disdainful at the time: Doomsday, the end of the day, has been said for hundreds of years, why is it that human beings are not extinct?What are you doing now?

Unexpectedly, two hours later, the whole earth really exploded into slag.

There is simply no way of escape!Xiyan watched the crying children on the side of the road fall into the cracks, watched the man who was driving for his life being cut in half by his car, and watched the helpless woman and the old man being killed before they even screamed. Acid gas corrodes into a skeleton... All communication tools fail instantly, only a very small number of people leave in spaceships, and most of them fall into the arms of death. The human beings on the earth have been mercilessly abandoned by the earth.

His last memory is of hot lava pouring in from the sky, engulfing him, mixed with the debris of the building.

He knew that he must be dead, but unexpectedly he woke up in the body of this person with the same name as him.At that time, this little director "Xi Yan" drowned himself in a bathtub full of water. When Xi Yan crawled out of the bathtub, he was more embarrassed than a drowned chicken.

After accepting the memory of the original owner, Xiyan collapsed even more.

In this era, Li-Fi is not popularized, people are driving outdated cars, and they cannot marry artificial intelligence as wives... Everything to Xiyan is as unbelievable as the life of a ruthless man drinking blood is to modern people.You must know that his previous historical achievements are scumbags, and he has no concept of the way of life of human beings in this era.

He didn't understand why the protagonists in so many rebirth novels he read quickly accepted the fact of his own rebirth, anyway, he really couldn't accept it!After experiencing the end of the world, after the original "Xiyan" drowned, his brain never recovered.

Today is the fourth day of his rebirth. He obviously needs rest and sleep. He feels extremely sleepy but he can’t fall asleep. What should I do if I die again and be reborn again” is such an unsolvable question.

"My God, are you suffering from depression? I didn't think you were so glass-hearted before..." Li Tao put his palm on Xiyan's forehead to test the temperature. It's quite normal, it shouldn't be a fever .

"Depression...depression..." Xiyan smiled more direly than Li Gui, "I don't know if I have depression, I only know that I really want to sleep but I can't sleep at all! You don't need to go on like this Take me to the hospital, book a cemetery for me directly, in this backward age, I heard that you can’t even buy a cemetery in the city..."

Xi Yan's voice was very low, Li Tao didn't hear "this backward age" and the following content, he focused on insomnia: "Isn't insomnia easy to cure, I will find a solution for you every minute!"

Li Tao took out his mobile phone, quickly opened Baidu and searched, and immediately found all kinds of serious and unscrupulous ways to cure insomnia.

"Hey, look at this, drink a glass of warm milk before going to bed..."

"I tried." Xiyan said.Drinking will only keep going to the toilet.

"Oh, and this instead - exercise until you're sweaty and then you're too tired to go to sleep right away."

"I tried it too." It was true that he was exhausted, but he still couldn't fall asleep. Instead, he sweated a lot from exercising and took several showers. Poor review!

"Why don't you just take a sleeping pill." Li Tao said sincerely.

"Do you think I haven't tried this?"

Speaking of how he got the sleeping pills, Xiyan almost shed two lasagna tears.

He is now full of fear of the outside world, if not for the insomnia is too painful, he would never go out.After finally doing a good job of psychological preparation for myself, I slowly moved to the pharmacy, but that pharmacy was very formal. I insisted that I would never give him sleeping pills unless I saw the doctor’s certificate. Seeing his poor physical condition, I enthusiastically introduced him He went to the hospital to see some psychiatrist.Xiyan quickly refused, and came back as if fleeing.

On the third night, he was almost going crazy, feeling that his body would reach its limit if he didn't sleep any more, out of fear of "may be reborn after death", he ran into the pharmacy and almost knelt down Ask the lady boss.The proprietress gave him a piece with trembling hands, and he happily ran home, stuffed the medicine into his mouth, covered the quilt, and looked forward to sleep like a good baby.

but!

The medicine could no longer stop his powerful brain, he still couldn't control his cranky thoughts and fell asleep, no, sleeping!

Li Tao also expressed his shock: "Even insomnia medicine can't save you?"

Xiyan nodded helplessly, her curly hair dangling.

"Why don't you really go to the hospital to have a look..."

"No!" Xiyan rolled his eyes at him, picked up the quilt and tried to cover himself again.

"Hey, don't lie down, there must be a way!" Li Tao quickly grabbed him.

"What way?" Xiyan looked at him weakly.

Li Tao stood up, walked around anxiously for two times, suddenly his eyes lit up, he patted his head, and said, "Since ordinary methods don't work for you, let's do something weird."

"What's weird?"

"Have you ever heard of a new profession, a professional hugger? I heard from a friend of mine that he couldn't sleep well in the last semester of his senior year because he was too anxious. His family gave him a lot of insomnia cures. There was no other way, so I finally went to the United States to find a big beautiful hugger, hugged him twice and comforted him. "

Xiyan tilted his head and thought for a while, then said hesitantly, "I don't think it sounds like...then what kind of deal..."

"Tsk! It's because your thoughts are not pure! They have professional ethics, and they don't do anything out of line except hugging. Besides, if there is a man and a woman, even if there is something, it is the woman's loss, and you are not. What." At this point, Li Tao added, "But the price seems a bit expensive."

It is said that a company in the United States has launched a hug service, and the service fee is as high as 80 US dollars (about 500 yuan) per hour, which is indeed quite expensive.Recently, there have been such service agencies in China, and the fee is a little cheaper, but not much cheaper.

Xiyan was about to be driven crazy by insomnia, like a person floating on the sea, even if it was a broken piece of wood, he wanted to hold it tightly in his arms; and hearing what Li Tao said, it seemed that he could try it.

"How do I contact them?"

"Wait, I'll ask my friend right away."

Li Tao's friend is quite reliable, and he sent him a string of phone numbers in a short while, and carefully noted the gender, personality, and appearance of these service personnel.

"Which one do you want to choose? Call yourself." Li Tao handed over the phone to him.

To be honest, Xiyan is already dizzy and delirious now, but in order to show that he really doesn't need to go to the hospital, he still pulls out his mobile phone, chooses a number randomly, and looks at Li Tao's mobile phone screen, Slowly press the numbers one by one on one side.

After pressing the last number, he breathed a sigh of relief as if he had completed some difficult task, and then dialed it decisively.

The author has something to say:

Everyone, don’t think that what I wrote is exaggerated. In fact, the pain of insomnia is much more serious than what I wrote. When you find that the time is almost approaching the next day and you have not fallen asleep, you can only "hehe "Can express that bleak mood.

Isn't there a video on YouTube discussing the Soviet sleep experiment, it's a bit scary!

Oh, and about the Li-Fi mentioned in the article, I didn’t make it up. It is indeed in the experimental stage, but I don’t know if it can be used in my lifetime, although it is not necessarily better than Wi-Fi in some aspects...
