Gu Ruijia is a man who doesn't have a very good eye for investment, but he always makes mistakes.
Ye Feixin said that he did want to, but the other person didn't cooperate.
"Get lost!" Ye Fei's expressionless face concealed dissatisfaction, "Show me another one?"
"No way," Gu Ruijia said with a sly smile, "I have money and never owe anyone anything."
Ye Fei put the phone on the coffee table, put one hand around Gu Ruijia's neck and pressed down hard, smiling: "I don't owe you money, but I deserve a beating."
“Hey, hey, hey,” Gu Ruijia tied her hands together and fluttered in the air like an old hen, “Don’t do it, don’t do it, I’m wrong, isn’t it?”
Ye Fei exerted a little more strength, strangling Gu Ruijia until he cried for his parents, then he showed mercy and let him go.
Gu Ruijia was tidying up her hair, which was like chicken feathers, while mumbling and accusing: "You have changed. You are no longer the Ye Fei of the past!"
Ye Fei was given goosebumps by his annoyance. She moved to the other end of the sofa with her computer and continued to check the script sent to her email.
Tianxi Entertainment has a mailbox dedicated to receiving scripts, which is specifically for receiving scripts handed in from outside. Generally, this kind of thing is screened by the subordinates, who then list out the ones they think are good and report them to Gu Ruijia.
But given Gu Ruijia's vision, Ye Fei really didn't trust the people he brought, so she just chose the ones herself.
He was reading a script. Gu Ruijia was bored and there was nothing to do on her phone, so she chatted with him in a random manner.
"Although I have lost money on several projects, I am smart. A few days ago, someone took me for a fool, but I saw through it immediately!"
Ye Fei closed a notebook that he couldn't understand, without even looking up: "What?"
Gu Ruijia raised his chin and said proudly, "What was the name of that book? Oh, I remember, 'Time and Space Rescue'! That person praised it so much. Five years of hard work and ten years of revision, bah!"
"Everyone knows that there is no market for science fiction films now. Even if there is a market, our special effects can't keep up, and the film will be another bad drama. How could I be fooled!"
He looked at Ye Fei with an expression seeking praise.
Ye Fei: “…”
Ye Fei didn’t know whether Gu Ruijia was lucky or unlucky. "Time and Space Rescue" was a big hit in the summer season two years later. Despite not looking good in every aspect, the film made a comeback thanks to its good reputation. It not only became the dark horse at the box office that year, but also broke the box office record in film history.
Ye Fei had naturally also seen this movie. Apart from some minor flaws in the special effects, the characters and plot of the movie are perfect. The audience was so sad that they were in tears one second, and the next second they couldn't help laughing at the director's dry humor.
At that time, almost the entire Internet was filled with news about "Time and Space Rescue". All the actors who participated in the show, even a supporting role that only appeared for a few moments, went from being unknown to being well-known actors.
However, unlike the grand occasion after it was broadcast, the initial investment of "Time and Space Rescue" was extremely difficult. Director Song Wen spent three years trying to find anyone willing to invest. In the end, he sold his house and car, and borrowed some money from relatives and friends, and only then was he able to set up the stall.
Ye Fei remembered watching Song Wen’s interview at that time. He said with regret that if there was enough investment, "Time Rescue" would definitely be filmed better.
I didn’t expect that Gu Ruijia was approached for this movie.
Ye Fei looked him up and down, his eyes becoming very strange.
Gu Ruijia was frightened by his gaze, hugged her chest and shrank back: "What are you doing?"
Ye Fei closed her laptop and asked, "Did you save the contact information of the director of "Time and Space Rescue"?"
Gu Ruijia blurted out without thinking: "No, why would I keep a liar——" Before he finished the sentence, he suddenly realized, "Are you interested in this book?"
Ye Fei said "hmm".
Gu Ruijia tried to hold back, but in the end she couldn't help herself and advised, "It's not that I don't trust you, but science fiction movies are really not good right now."
What Gu Ruijia said is true. The reason why European and American blockbusters have high box office is partly because of their awesome special effects, but more importantly, they have a huge fan base.
But the selling point of "Time and Space Rescue" is not the special effects, but the warmth of humanity. Director Song Wen is good at digging out details, and there is no lack of heartwarming interactions as the film reaches its climax, making it a refreshing and touching watch.
Ye Fei tapped the table with his fingers: "Let's talk about it after I read the script." He picked up the cup and took a sip of water. "Brother Gu, help me contact the director."
"Don't call me by that name," Gu Ruijia held her head, looking like she had a toothache, "Isn't it okay for me to contact you? Give me two days."
Anyway, it's just a chat, and it's not certain whether you will invest or not.
Ye Fei nodded: "Then I'll leave it to you."
With the example of "Time and Space Rescue", other scripts seem to lack a little flavor. Ye Fei simply put down the computer and decided to talk about it tomorrow.
"You did such a great job today, don't you want to celebrate?" Gu Ruijia winked at Ye Fei, "Don't leave tonight, my name is Zhou Zhensheng and Sun Qiong, let's have some fun together."
If it were in the past, he would not even dare to mention this, for fear that Ye Fei would scold him sternly for wasting his time on pleasure. But it’s different now. Ye Fei is in high spirits and even crazier than him.
"Okay." Ye Fei leaned back, lazily leaning on the sofa and closing his eyes to rest, "You arrange the rest, and I'll take care of the wine."
Gu Ruijia snapped his fingers and said, "No problem!" Fearing that Ye Fei might change his mind, he pushed him again and said, "Hurry up and call Yan Xiao."
Ye Fei didn't even open his eyes: "What?"
Gu Ruijia glared: "Hey you! If you are not going home, you should at least tell Yan Xiao, so that he won't worry."
Worry? Ye Fei snorted softly. Yan Xiao wished that she would not appear in front of him.
He waved his hand and said perfunctorily: "It's okay, don't worry about him."
"I say, you've almost finished." Gu Ruijia shoved the phone into his hand and urged, "Hurry up, if you're a man, don't waste time."
Gu Ruijia really couldn't understand why Ye Fei suddenly became such a scumbag. Look at what has happened time and again, divorce and not reporting it. If it were put on a forum, people would curse at them to the point of a thousand stories high!
But people have different relationships, and as for his own brothers, what else can he do except try to persuade them?
Ye Fei wanted to say that he and Yan Xiao were not that familiar with each other, but looking at Gu Ruijia's eager eyes, he reluctantly dialed Yan Xiao's number. Otherwise, his ears would not be at peace today.
At that time, Yan Xiao was in a meeting.
The lively piano music suddenly rang out in the conference room, interrupting the PPT presentation of a person in charge at the booth.
The executives looked at each other, all worried about the person who forgot to mute his phone.
Everyone knows that bosses hate this kind of behavior the most. A scolding is the lightest punishment. What you fear most is that the boss stares at you expressionlessly, says nothing, and then directly notifies the Human Resources Department to recruit new people.
The music continued, and the executives' hearts almost stopped. He kept his head down and didn't even dare to look around. Everyone was wondering who this person was who didn't hang up the call and just let the phone ring.
Are you challenging the boss?
Yan Xiao frowned and looked around. Just as he was about to speak, Cheng Minghao next to him suddenly came over and whispered, "Brother Xiao, your phone number."
Yan Xiao was startled and took out his cell phone.
On the lit screen, two big words were clearly displayed: Ye Fei.
From the day he got Ye Fei's number, Yan Xiao set a separate ringtone for him. It’s just that Ye Fei never contacted him actively, so Yan Xiao didn’t react for a while.
"Continue." Yan Xiao glanced at the executives around the long table, threw down two words, and walked out of the meeting room with his mobile phone.
There was no special expression on his face, but his pace, which was always even as if measured with a ruler, was now slightly hasty.
Cheng Minghao rolled his eyes and followed.
He was really curious. You know, Yan Xiao never saved other people's numbers. He was born with a good memory and could remember a cell phone number at a glance, so his contacts were always empty.
However, today he saw Ye Fei’s caller ID!
The arrangement is obviously different from those with just a string of numbers.
In the corridor, Yan Xiao had already answered the phone: "Ye Fei."
"I'm not going home tonight," Ye Fei's voice came from the other end of the phone. It was slightly distorted after being filtered by the radio, but it still sounded good. "I'm telling you something."
Yan Xiao was silent for a moment before asking, "Where are you going?"
Ye Fei answered quickly: "Playing at a friend's house."
Yan Xiao opened his mouth, wanting to ask which friend's house he was at, what they were playing that would take a whole night, and whether he needed to pick him up when he was done. But when the words came to my lips, all I could say was: "Have fun."
Ye Fei said "hmm".
There was silence between the two. Yan Xiao wanted to hear Ye Fei's voice again, but before he could find a topic, Ye Fei was already impatient.
"Hang up." He said, and then there was only an endless busy tone on the other end of the phone.
Yan Xiao held the phone and lowered his eyes slightly.
"Ye Fei is going out to play?" Cheng Minghao came over and saw that although Yan Xiao was no different from usual, he was obviously in a low mood. He smiled and said, "No way, are you unhappy? I thought you two were not on good terms, but I didn't expect that."
Yan Xiao didn't even talk about love with Ye Fei at the beginning, but he suddenly wanted to get married. After marriage, the two rarely appeared in the same frame, so Cheng Minghao always thought that there was something fishy about their marriage.
Yan Xiao glanced at him coldly: "We have a good relationship."
Cheng Minghao was startled and quickly raised his hands in surrender: "Okay, okay, I said the wrong thing. But if you don't want him to go, just say no."
Yan Xiao was silent for a while, then said, "He doesn't like people who are too proactive and unreserved."
"Huh?" Cheng Minghao recalled the few times he had come into contact with Ye Fei and felt that it was unlikely. "No way, it doesn't look like that. How do you know? What did he say?"
Yan Xiao nodded.
Cheng Minghao still didn't believe it: "Don't tell me you heard it wrong, when did he say that?"
"9:23 p.m., August 17, 2010."
Yan Xiao would remember what Ye Fei hated and would never do it, but Ye Fei still didn't like him.
So, can you teach Yan Xiao what to do to make Ye Fei care about him a little more? Yan Xiao is not greedy, just a little bit is enough.
