After going out for dinner more than half an hour late, An Ling was scolded by Ms. Li again.Before he could reply, Qi Wangshu gave her an apologetic smile, "Auntie, you can't blame Anling, it's because I haven't seen him for several days, and I want to talk to him for a while."

Ms. Li immediately changed her face, and waved to him with a smile, "Okay, okay, don't blame him, hurry up and try Auntie's craft."

An Ling picked up a dumpling and stuffed it into his mouth expressionlessly.

After eating, Qi Wangshu just wanted to ask to wash the dishes, but An Ling covered his mouth, "Give poor me some status in this family!"

Qi Wangshu rolled his eyes and took off his hand, "I always want to behave better in front of my aunt."

"As long as you are Qi Wangshu, you are good in her eyes, so don't waste your time." An Ling stopped his hand to clean up the dishes, then leaned into his ear and whispered: "The main reason is that I don't want to wash, you go After washing the dishes, how can I sit still?"

Qi Wangshu could only put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand.Anling pulled him to stand up, when Ms. Li said, "Lingling, it's your turn to do the dishes today!"

An Ling took Qi Wangshu and ran back to his room.Ms. Li stomped her feet angrily from behind, but Qi Wangshu, an accomplice, did not bring him back.

"Washing dishes is the thing I hate to do in this world, bar none."

An Ling closed the door confidently.

"Has your relationship with your aunt always been like this?" Qi Wangshu asked him with a smile.

An Ling glanced at him, "Is it really noisy?"

"No, it's pretty good." Qi Wangshu replied: "I... am a little envious."

Counting the time, he has not been in touch with his parents for nearly four years.But even if he didn't break up because of his insistence on becoming an actor, he and his parents would never be like An Ling and his mother, laughing and making trouble.

An Ling felt a little distressed, hooked his neck and kissed him on the face, "Brother Ling loves you."

Qi Wangshu lowered his head, just as their lips were about to meet, An Ling suddenly jumped up.

"I...I'll show you something." After jumping a bit, he twitched again, licking his lower lip, but his eyes were bright.

An Ling turned on his computer, cleared his throat quite uncomfortably, "In your senior year, you also kept failing in auditions. I was naive and wanted to write a script for you. Later," he paused, "Later, I still insisted on finishing it, and it has been revised many times in the past few years. Do you want to take a look?"

He clicked on a folder, then turned to look at Qi Wangshu.

The name of the script is "Above Ten Thousand People".

The male protagonist is a young emperor who ascended the throne at the age of 13. The queen mother listens to the government behind the curtain, and the powerful ministers assist Chao Gang.He thought about being a good emperor, but found that although he was on the throne, he was restrained by various forces, and he couldn't follow his true wishes in every move.He was naive, struggled, and resisted, but in the end he gradually compromised.After the death of his beloved concubine, he was in his prime and had lost his passion for life, completely reduced to a puppet, and spent the rest of his life in a daze.

Qi Wangshu sat in front of the computer for a long time, and finished reading the script in one breath.

An Ling has been waiting quietly by the side.

In fact, he knows that this is not a script that can earn box office, the tone of the whole story is heavy and depressing, and it is a complete tragedy, but he feels that if Qi Wangshu can act, he will be able to act very well.The gloomy and empty feeling of the male protagonist in the later period is actually the feeling Qi Wangshu gave An Ling at the beginning.

Qi Wangshu turned his head and looked at Anling, "Can you make a copy for me?"

Two days later, Qi Wangshu called An Ling and told An Ling that he decided to shoot this role.

It wasn't a sudden impulse. In two days, he asked Zhang Xinran and other staff in the studio to read the script together. After everyone thought it was feasible, he told An Ling the final decision.

Holding the mobile phone, An Ling was first frozen in a sudden daze, and then felt his heart beating faster and faster, and his blood boiled uncontrollably.

But the script is only the first step, the next step is to find investment, find a director, lead actress and supporting roles, big and small, until a complete crew is formed.

The investment can be drawn at the end. The most important thing now is to find a director who is interested in the script and has no objection to Qi Wangshu being the leading actor.

But where to find it?

Zhang Xinran searched for several director studios with a third of the script, but the results were not satisfactory.

Either when they heard that she was Qi Wangshu's manager, they shut the door and disappeared, or they practiced Tai Chi for a few hours, and at the end they disliked the screenwriter as a newcomer and asked to change the script according to the needs of the market.

However, the screenwriter and the leading actor are the only two things that cannot be changed.

When Zhou Chen called Anling, he was at Qi Wangshu's home to accompany him to exercise, and Qi Wangshu was watching from the side.

"Teacher An?" Zhou Chen was as polite as ever, and An Ling straightened his back unconsciously when he heard his voice, "I heard that you have a script recently and are looking for a director?"

"Ah..." An Ling glanced at Qi Wangshu, "Yes."

"Have you found it?" Zhou Chen continued to ask.

An Ling didn't know how to answer. Although he didn't participate in the matter of finding the director, he could also know a thing or two from Zhang Xinran's occasional phone calls to Qi Wangshu. If he found it, he definitely didn't find it, but...

"Director Zhou, why don't I send you a copy of the script as well?"

Zhou Chen is a TV drama director and has never made a movie before. Naturally, Zhang Xinran didn't consider him when he handed over the script, but he took the initiative to ask. An Ling felt that he couldn't touch his face.

"Hey!" Zhou Chen laughed, "I still have self-knowledge. I can't make movies, but I have an old classmate who can do it. You should know him too. His name is Jiang Lai."

Jiang Lai?

An Ling was shocked by the name, and quickly said: "I know, I know, I have seen all of Director Jiang's works!"

Jiang Lai is also a well-known director in China. In terms of international popularity, he is several levels higher than Director Zhen.He doesn't have many works, most of them are literary films, and some of them can't even be released in China. However, almost every film can be nominated by the three major international film festivals. Whoever acts in his film is equivalent to a layer of gold plating .

Zhou Chen could hear his excitement, and said with a smile: "Teacher An helped me a lot in the last play, and we can be regarded as friends who have forgotten each other. Jiang Lai has a good relationship with me. Give me the script, and I can help you." Bring it to him."

An Ling was so excited that he could hardly sit still, stood up and replied: "Director Zhou, you are too polite, I actually didn't do anything... Do you want the script? I will send it to you now! Director Jiang may not be able to read it Yes, but I'll be happy to let him see me!"

"No hurry, no hurry, he will come to my house for dinner tomorrow, just send it to me at night." Zhou Chen's laughter came from the receiver.

An Ling thought of his little thoughts when he first received the call, and said embarrassedly: "Director Zhou, thank you very much, I just treated the belly of a gentleman with a villain's heart, I'm really sorry... so, when will you have Kong, Qi Wangshu and I treat you to dinner!"

"Speaking of Wang Shu," Zhou Chen said on the other end of the phone, "Are you two together now?"

Of course An Ling knew the meaning of the three words "together", and said in a little embarrassment: "...Yes, how did you know?"

"I guessed it as soon as he came out of the closet, haha," Zhou Chen said with a smile, "Not bad, not bad, you two are very good together."

An Ling breathed a sigh of relief, and then laughed, "Director Zhou...you are really a good person."

"It's only good people who meet good people. You two young people are talented and motivated, keep going!" Zhou Chen replied.

"En." An Ling glanced at Qi Wangshu who was in the distance, and replied sincerely.

"Who were you calling just now?" Qi Wangshu came over, "In such a good mood?"

An Ling handed him the water, raised his eyebrows, "Guess."

Qi Wangshu glanced at him, frowned and thought about it, then shook his head.

An Ling just smiled and said nothing.

Qi Wangshu silently drank two sips of water, but still couldn't help turning his head and asked him: "Isn't it Cen Ya?"

Only then did An Ling realize that he was still jealous, his eyes widened and he suppressed a smile.

Qi Wangshu put down the water glass, "Is it?"

An Ling couldn't hold back his laughter, "What if I said it was you?"

Qi Wangshu just looked at him with a pair of eyes and didn't speak.

An Ling raised his hands in surrender after being stared at by him for less than a minute, "Okay, okay, it's not him."

"That is?"

"Let's not talk about it now. When there is good news, I will be the first to tell you." An Ling smiled.
