When Pei Wanchu raised his head, Wenyi's black pupils looked at him right and wrong, as if there was something important to say to him.

He blinked, and hummed involuntarily.

"Can you not call me Mr. Wen in the future?"

This name is too extravagant, too outlandish, whenever Pei Wanchu called him that, Wen Yi saw an insurmountable gap in front of them.

"Didn't I always call you Mr. Wen?" Pei Wanchu felt that either he drank too much today, or Wen Yi drank too much.

"What I mean is, we're friends now, don't be so polite and alienated, you call me Wenyi, or..."

Wen Yisheng bit down the second half of the sentence, he was afraid that he would cross too much at once, and the gain would outweigh the loss.

"Can I call you Wanchu just like Director Bai?"

Pei Wanchu curled her lips, reluctantly said yes.

"Xiao Chu, then I'll drink this cup first."

???

Pei Wanchu poked her ear piercing, did she hear wrong just now? ?Obviously that's not what you said?

Wen Yi took a sip of the wine, and took the initiative to chat about his work in the past few years, as well as some things he knew about in the entertainment industry.

It seemed that he wanted to give Pei Wanchu all of what he had known and seen over the years, so that he would be able to predict the foresight and be omnipotent.

Pei Wanchu heard it and remembered the general idea.There is no way to study whether it is true or false at the moment, so let's just listen to it as a casual article.It's just that people have told you so much, and if you ask him something that doesn't involve privacy, he will always cooperate and say a few words.

It's just that he didn't understand why Wen Yi was so curious about his childhood?

"Director Pei, did you keep your long hair since you were a child?"

Pei Wanchu shook her head...

"If you had long hair since you were a child, I would have to wonder if your parents wanted a daughter. But you are so beautiful, if you are a girl..."

Wen Yi talked nonsense while being drunk, which made Pei Wanchu smile politely instead of embarrassedly.

"Director Pei, did you find anything interesting when you were in school? I always feel that you, as directors, screenwriters, and writers of novels, have rich and wonderful lives, which are many times more interesting than our ordinary life."

Wen Yi shook the wine in the glass, staring at Pei Wanchu bewilderedly.

Pei Wanchu blinked his sweaty eyes, recalled Wenyi's words twice, and determined that he should be a compliment.

"Wen... Yi, how can your life be considered ordinary, the scale of tens of millions or hundreds of millions of funds at a time is the heartbeat and excitement, and it is not something ordinary people like us can hold a candle to."

Pei Wanchu didn't know anything about finance or venture capital, so he probably knew that what Wen Yi did was very profitable.The risk should also be great, if you lose, you should lose a lot, otherwise how would you have the guts to invest in his script?

The two of you came and I chatted until eleven o'clock in the evening, Pei Wanchu looked at the wall clock on the wall a few times, and almost said that it was too late and you should get out.

Wen Yi stood up and said goodbye before Pei Wanchu issued the order to evict the guests.

Hearing that Wen Yi was going to leave, Pei Wanchu, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, immediately got up to open the door, his legs interfered with each other and he swayed and almost fell.

He supported the sofa to stand still and looked up, Wen Yi had already walked to the door in a straight line, put on his shoes and opened the door, and said good night and goodbye to him.

The bang of the door closing shook Pei Wanchu's head which had grown several times, and he barely reset it. After washing hastily, he flung himself on the bed.

Wen Yi, who easily walked out of the gate of the community, stood on the side of the road waiting for the valet driver who had just been called, and he became a little drunk when the night wind blew.

He sighed, after all these years of hard work, tonight was the first time he drank wine for nothing, in every sense.

In the banquet of entertainment, he either pays the bill to repay the favor, or sells the benefits in exchange for cooperation. There is no such thing as idle drinking, and it is all about endless business negotiations and endless contracts.

He was grinning on the surface, holding a knife in his heart, wishing he could chop up the other party to eat meat and drink blood.

He didn't pay for the wine tonight, so it was for nothing.

Even after drinking tonight, he didn't talk about the information he wanted, so it was a waste of time.

He planned to ask Pei Wanchu about his childhood while he was having a good time. He sold Lu Zhi so thoroughly, and when he sold Lu Zhi and sold himself, Pei Wanchu gritted his teeth.

What he said was worthless. After drinking for so long, he didn't even know what kindergarten Pei Wanchu went to or where he was born.

Next time I can't drink, it will hurt my body and make me sad!

The day of the cast interview was an ordinary day, with no wind or rain, and the weather was slightly sunny.

Pei Wanchu got up early in the morning, and encountered something unusual as soon as she walked out of the gate of the community.

Wen Yi's car was parked at the gate of the community, with several windows and even the sunroof open, for fear that people passing by would not be able to see who was sitting inside.

After drinking that day, Wen Yi sent a message the next day asking if he was okay, and the two never contacted again after that.

Since he and Lu Zhi don't have a nurturing relationship, the scandal of him smashing the funder will no longer exist, so Wen Yi's appearance here can only be waiting for him.

Although a little awkward, not knowing why Wen Yi came here, Pei Wanchu walked to the passenger door with the glass window wide open, and knocked on the car door.

"wait for me here?"

"Ah? Yes, that place is not easy to find today. Lu Zhi is afraid that you will get lost and asked me to drop by to pick you up."

Wen Yi threw away the phone, reached out and opened the car door.

The first day Pei Wanchu got in the car, Lu Zhi threw over a box of chocolate milk: "It's so early, I guess you haven't eaten breakfast, this is what Lu Zhi likes to drink, and you young people should like it."

Pei Wanchu took it over and said thank you, plugged in a straw and drank a couple of sips. If it was a week ago, he probably wouldn't have dared to drink it, for fear of being poisoned and killed by the patron...

"Is it delicious?" Wen Yi glanced at it, Pei Wanchu gulped and didn't let go.

"Well, the taste is relatively pure and a bit sweet."

For Pei Wanchu, chocolate milk is neither a favorite nor a dislike, it's purely to keep his mouth from being idle, so that he doesn't have to try his best to find something to talk about.

In the morning, the roads in the city center were extremely congested, and Wen Yi concentrated on coping with other cars or pedestrians coming out of the fork from time to time.

It was very quiet in the car, only the cool breeze from the air conditioner.

Pei Wanchu looked at the familiar roads appearing in turn in front of him, not only puzzled, but after getting in the car for so long, Wen Yi's car turned several corners without leaving the downtown area.

As a passenger, he is embarrassed to ask Wen Yi: is he looking for a shortcut or just lost his way...

The straw made a whirring sound, Pei Wanchu reluctantly lifted it up and shook it, there was not a single drop left in it.

Before he could figure out what to say, Wen Yi's car turned around and drove into a strange place.

The road was so narrow that it could barely pass a car and a half, and there were high fences on both sides. Pei Wanchu rolled down the car window and heard the sound of ping-pong-pong inside the fence, which seemed to be under construction.

The car gradually slowed down, and the painting style became strange.

On the fence in front, it is written at intervals, the word "demolition" that most people have dreamed of for a long time.

The red is dazzling, implying the sudden riches that have already come.

Pei Wanchu jumped out of the car, a cloud of dust kicked up under his feet.Walking through the corner, a simple desk was placed in a temporarily withdrawn enclosure. On the desk was a stack of blank registration forms, a box of waterproof digital stickers, and a registration form.

At first glance, the door looks like there is no electricity, and the computer cannot be used, so the most primitive manual registration can only be adopted.

Sitting behind the table were two employees of Baili Entertainment. They greeted Wen Yi and Pei Wanchu with a smile when they saw them.

"Mr. Wen, good morning Director Pei."

Walking into the entrance of the reluctant door, the scene inside is similar to Pei Wanchu's imagination, but a little different.

The smashed ground, the cement block mixed with the soil is uneven, and only a few dead branches are left in the green belt.

More than ten meters away is a small two-story building with a dilapidated appearance. There are posters with a sense of age on the cement exterior wall. The bright colors of the year have been polished by time, and the glorious past has long since faded. The old-fashioned paintings Fa Peiwan couldn't understand it at first, but the square characters next to it were clearly written.

It is the name of several movies that have gained great reputation and box office in the past few decades.

In an era when the Internet is underdeveloped and publicity methods are completely backward compared to modern times, there are several films that have created box office miracles by relying on word of mouth.

Two metal gates with mottled paint were left open, inside was a semi-circular space, the ground sloped from the gate to the bottom, and at the end was a table [-] to [-] centimeters high.

Rows of flipped wooden chairs are placed in a ladder shape along the arc of the space. The dark chairs have the same annual ring pattern, even the width is almost exactly the same.

Dozens of old-fashioned fluorescent tubes embedded in the walls and ceiling provide all the lighting.

Some of the light tubes that have been in disrepair are on, and some are not, barely illuminating the interior space.

Bai Hao was standing on the stage, directing the staff to set up the interview scene. Behind him was a huge gray movie screen.

"Is this a movie theater?" Pei Wanchu saw the original purpose of this age-like building.

"Not all, this was the first movie theater in Yanjing at the beginning, and it probably lasted until the 90s. Because the area could not be expanded, the equipment and equipment could not keep up with the development of the times, and it was not suitable for reconstruction, so it was suspended, and then it became a small drama troupe. , completely shut down ten years ago because of demolition."

Walking to the first row, Wen Yi took out a pack of tissues from the suit jacket on his wrist, pressed down on a chair and carefully wiped the seat board.

With the development of the times, the film industry is in full swing, but this old theater has no way to renovate. The size is the biggest obstacle. The surrounding land has long been eaten away by developers with a keen sense of smell. There is no place for them to expand.

Movie theaters had no choice but to withdraw from the torrent of history, seeking a difficult transformation. Later, people pursued diversified modes of spiritual enjoyment, and there was a new way out here, providing performance venues for some stage plays and dramas.

Because of the convenient transportation and low rent, it came back to life for a while, and was finally picked up by the developer and closed down for demolition.

Half of it was dismantled, and the developer's funds were broken. He wanted to change hands, but he put it on hold because of the area problem.

Wen Yi happened to know the person who is in charge of this property by beating around the bush, and borrowed it after begging for favors. The electricity in the main building was still on, but it was too long since no one cared about it, and the inside was covered with ashes. Wen Yi came here with Bai Hao for the first time. At that time, I was choked and coughed again and again, so I invited a few people from a cleaning company to come.It took a whole day to clean up the area to be used.

"The old movies that were advertised outside just now had their premieres here, so this is a treasured place."

Wen Yi carefully smashed the paper towel that wiped the stool into a cube and pinched it in his hand, Pei Wanchu smiled and took it and threw it into the trash can beside him.

"Lend your auspicious words."
