sanguine and depressive

Chapter 87 Can't Take It Anymore

The small work group that had been quiet for a while was reactivated.With the previous shooting as a foreshadowing, many staff configurations only need to be used.The shooting date was preliminarily set in early and mid-May. This time, due to the more complicated quotation, Lucy and I were in charge together, and Jessica was also pulled into the group to be responsible for other itinerary docking.

Although I am used to business trips from time to time, it is the first time to go to such a far place. WER has had stable cooperation with several car companies all the year round. In the past two years, they also mainly chose to shoot locally, and more funds were used for post-production special effects and rendering.

Jiefei intends to continue to use Xiao Shunzhi as the director. After the video conference, he began to write scripts and design storyboards.Unexpectedly, three versions in a row were rejected.

The client surnamed Wei said on the phone: "It's not special. I feel that this shoot can be done in Songjiang, but it can also be shot in Chongming."

"So why did you go to Delingha to shoot?" I was on the phone with him wearing a Bluetooth headset, typing on the keyboard, "The cost is high and the production cycle is long."

"It was decided at a meeting." Mr. Wei explained, "We hope that the audience of this car is not only families... Of course, the most important thing is to break the stereotype that electric cars can only travel short distances in cities."

"Create a wild romance," he said.

I almost believed it: "But it is a pure electric car."

"Electric vehicles are the way of the future," he replied.

"Okay." I nodded, "You are the sponsors, so what you say has the final say."

"Baby." He naturally turned from work to personal affairs, "Can I have dinner with you tonight?"

Since I revealed this secret last time, although Wei Chengyu was very surprised at first, he immediately accepted this setting and enjoyed it very much. Now he will never miss it when he can shout.

I hung up the phone and took off the earphones, and said to Lucy next to me, "Xiao Shunzhi's script has still not been passed."

She was peeling oranges to eat, and while watching a TV series on the computer, she replied: "I watched it too, the script is indeed relatively common, and the Mars base is useless, right?"

"En." I opened the document sent by Director Xiao on the computer.Xiao Shunzhi's advantage lies in his mature skills and rich experience, and the layout design of the screen has the texture of a movie, but he lacks experience in shooting cars and the script is relatively limited, which can be seen from the last cooperation.

"I'm going to have to get someone else to write the script," I said. "I think what Jaffe means is to tell a good story."

"Who are you looking for? Generally, directors won't accept those who only write scripts..." Lucy said.

"Ohhh, sorry..." Xunsheng looked back and found that Patrick was passing behind us with a switch, and accidentally kicked Nini who was sleeping behind my feet.

Patrick is from Turkey. It is said that his grandmother is Chinese. He can understand a little Chinese, but he can't speak a word.He was also a producer before, but due to the company's business restructuring, he has now transformed into the only director of WER.

Although when we discuss director candidates with Party A, we usually recommend Patrick first if we have the opportunity, but because he has little experience and works, and he is only a producer, he will basically be rejected.Because of this, he has been out of work for several months, sitting at his desk every day watching movies or playing switch.

A few days ago, he said that he would sell ice cream on the ground floor of the commercial building next door after three months of accumulated unemployment.

Lucy winked at me, then turned to Patrick and said in English, "Try writing a script?"

I described some requirements to him, and Patrick nodded: "OK, you can AirDrop the data to me."

I had to answer: "Wechat sent to you, my computer can't AirDrop."

When I was packing the materials, Lucy said: "You and Hellen should report for a replacement, only their finances are still using old computers, you see the rest of us have replaced them with MacBooks!"

"I'm used to it, and I'm not very good at using MacBook." I replied perfunctorily, "Persist for the last half a year."

"Oh, by the way, are you taking a day off tomorrow?" Lucy remembered and asked, "Then see you at the airport on Saturday the day after tomorrow?"

I promise to come down.I have a business trip to Nanjing on weekends. This year, the watch brand I cooperated with has held activities in Shanghai, Nanjing and Guangzhou. The star I cooperated with is Xi Yilin. According to Lucy, he just debuted as No.1 through the talent show last summer.

The reason why I asked for leave on Friday was because I suddenly received the news that Yan Baoting was going back to China a few days ago.

When I arrived at the airport the next evening, I saw him standing there wearing sunglasses and dragging a small suitcase in his hand.

I walked over and took his suitcase, and he asked, "Just you?"

"Yeah, the other one is going to work." I replied.After I met Wei Chengyu, I reported the matter truthfully.

On the way to the hotel, Yan Baoting asked me: "Is the house okay? It's been dusty after so long, right?"

"The traffic is very convenient." I thanked from the bottom of my heart, "Thank you, I couldn't find such a good house if I had to look for it myself."

"It's closed even if it's empty. Anyway, I don't plan to come back for a long time in the past few years." He took a picture of the window with his mobile phone, and said after a while, "It's lucky that you can meet."

After dinner, Yan Baoting said he wanted to drink, I took him to the bar next to him and sat in the corner.After so many years, I gradually discovered that drinking capacity may be a kind of talent, only Yan Baoting and I can stay relatively sober until the end when we drink.

He shook his wine glass and told me about his life in England, saying that Fang Zhechen's job has gradually stabilized, but he is a bit busy.When I heard this, I realized that I still only worked five days a week, so I comforted me and said, "It's okay, I have to work seven days a week now." Wei Chengyu was no better than me.

"...Isn't there only seven days in a week?" Yan Baoting asked, "How can your foreign company disrespect the labor law? Sue them."

"Although the extra days of work last month can be made up next month." I replied, "But sometimes there are really tasks, and there is no way to make up for them, so I can only continue to work." But in the off-season of summer, there are few weeks when nothing happens You can also leave work at three or four in the afternoon, which can only be said to have advantages and disadvantages.

While talking, Yan Baoting suddenly took out his mobile phone, and it was Fang Yichen who made a video call to him.

"Chagang is here." He muttered, "Hey, what are you doing?" There was an 8-hour time difference between London and Shanghai, and it was just afternoon.

"Drinking tea." Fang Xichen's serious face appeared at the other end of the video.

Just like the group photo that Yan Baoting showed me during the military training almost ten years ago, Fang Xichen still hasn’t changed much. He wears a pair of glasses, and his expression is always very serious, only when facing Yan Baoting. Show a very faint smile.

"Oh. Then drink your tea." Yan Baoting said, "I'll drink my wine. Hang up if you have nothing to do..."

"When will you be back?" The other side asked like a cannonball, "Where are you drinking? Is Cen Xiao by your side?" I hurried over to show my face and greet him.

"I'll come back when I want to." Yan Baoting finished his perfunctory answer and simply hung up the video.

I:………………

"Arguing?" I asked tentatively.

"His problem is not mine." Yan Baoting put the phone back in his pocket, raised his glass again, and took a sip to look at me, "Are you in a good mood recently? I feel like my face has brightened eight degrees."

I thought I could see this, and he continued to ask: "Then what kind of relationship do you guys have now? Are you getting back together?"

"It can't be counted." I thought for a while, "The relationship has not been formally confirmed yet, and it is now in the stage of... blind date. Observation period."

He choked for a moment and asked, "Blind date? What's so good about it? Haven't we already talked about it? Do you want to go on a blind date again?"

I said, "I'm afraid that after we get along for a while, he will find that I'm not what he imagined, or what I used to be."

"It's normal too." He disapproved, "Everyone changes."

"But I feel he hasn't changed much." I nodded and shook my head again, "...it's about the same as before, maybe even better than before."

"Ha." Yan Baoting said with a smile, "It's because of your resurgence of old love, which may be the case in other people's eyes."

"Really. I think it's good now." I said, "If he thinks it's inappropriate, he can stop the loss in time."

"Oh, if the relationship is confirmed, we can't break up?" Yan Baoting tried to point out the mistakes in my words.I took off the little paper umbrella on the wine glass and played with it: "No, of course it's okay."

Yan Baoting said "Yes", indicating that he was listening.

"...It feels like a dream this month. In fact, I never thought that I could..." I looked up and smiled awkwardly at him, "In contrast, I don't seem to be able to bear to lose it again."
