"What's the meaning?"
“Just literally.”
"Are you suspecting that Chen Ya traveled from the future?"
Su Xiaonuan shook her head: "Maybe there are some people in this world who came from the future, but Chen Ya is not one of them."
Xia You stared at her, becoming more certain of his previous thoughts.
She really didn't know how to get along with Su Xiaonuan.
Every word Su Xiaonuan said was ambiguous and seemed to be understood in many ways. She didn't know whether she was setting a trap for herself, joking, or serious.
Or, as the person who knows Chen Ya best, what does she want to hint at?
Not sure. Let's take a look.
"Among the people I know, if there is one who looks most like a time traveler from the future, it's Chen Ya," said Xia You.
"Hmm?" Su Xiaonuan looked at her with a smile, motioning her to continue.
"He knows everything, he can do everything. Every step he takes seems incredible, but in hindsight, it's the optimal solution. His achievements are unprecedented, yet the world knows nothing about him, as if he's trying to minimize his impact. If it weren't for his complicated personal relationships, I'd seriously suspect he's a time traveler from the future."
Su Xiaonuan smiled and shook her head, saying:
"Even if someone travels from the future, they might not be able to handle their personal relationships well, right?"
"Well, excluding this point, he must be a time traveler." Xia You said firmly.
"Really not."
Su Xiaonuan spoke so confidently and seriously that Xia You became even more confused.
"Why are you so sure? You've known him since childhood, so you must know a lot about him. Was he like this when he was little? Or is it that, although his talent is like a waterfall, it also has a source?"
This question seemed to trigger Su Xiaonuan's memories. She suddenly fell silent, turned her head and looked out the car window, her eyes reflecting the rows of tall buildings passing by in Tokyo.
Just when Xia You felt that she was about to speak and reveal some core secrets, the taxi stopped.
"arrive."
Xia You looked at Su Xiaonuan with great disappointment as she opened the car door, dragged the heavy black suitcase she had been carrying since she got off the plane, and struggled to get out of the car with her long legs.
The two got off the car together. Su Xiaonuan carried the suitcase in both hands and walked towards the destination with Xia You, one in front and one behind.
Just now, Su Xiaonuan seemed to have some urge to talk about the past and the future, but now there was no atmosphere at all to talk about those things.
The two were silent for a while, and Xia You said:
"Is the stuff in this box of yours important?"
Su Xiaonuan grabbed the box with both hands and said with a smile, "Why do you ask?"
"It's so heavy, but when you got in the car just now, you didn't put it in the trunk, but placed it on your legs, as if you were afraid of losing it," Xia You said, "So I feel that it must be very important to you."
"You're quite observant," Su Xiaonuan said. "You guessed right. It's very important, and not just to me."
…
"So the script for Crazy Stone was written by Chen Ya?" Qin Yunchu was a little surprised. "No wonder it's so interesting."
"Yes, isn't the screenwriter of 'Crazy Stone' credited as 'Ji'an'? That's Chen Ya's pen name for the screenplay."
Qin Yunchu was slightly startled and said, "So it's him? I seem to remember that Ji An was the screenwriter of several movies. I even wondered who he was, but then I couldn't find any information, so I gave up."
Gu Yuqing turned her head away and asked with a smile, "Xiao Qin also likes movies like Crazy Stone?"
Qin Yunchu blinked and asked, "I like it. What's wrong with this movie?"
Gu Yuqing smiled and said, "I thought a rich lady like you wouldn't like this kind of movie that has a strong flavor of ordinary people's lives."
Qin Yunchu blushed slightly. "Although it's very different from real life, the plot is easy to understand. I can still understand it."
Jiang Xinhai ignored Gu Yuqing's interruption and continued:
"Actually, their original division of labor was that Chen Ya was responsible for directing and writing the script, while Su Xiaonuan was responsible for playing the female lead."
"Director Chen Ya, Su Xiaonuan is the female lead?"
Qin Yunchu was very surprised because she had seen the movie and the director column listed was Su Xiaonuan.
Moreover, this film is a typical man's play, and there is no female lead at all.
"How, how could this happen? Why didn't Chen Ya become a director in the end?" Qin Yunchu asked.
"It's easy to guess," Gu Yuqing blinked and interrupted, "It's because of the resistance from the investors, right?"
Jiang Xinhai nodded: "You guessed right. The resistance comes from the investors."
"Ah?" Qin Yunchu looked around at the two people who seemed to be in tacit agreement. Their expressions seemed to say that the answer was self-evident, but she was like a poor student and had no idea what they were talking about.
Jiang Xinhai explained: "At that time, Cao Kunguan introduced the investor he had been working with to Chen Ya, but the other party was not satisfied with the director's choice and insisted on changing him."
"Then what?" Qin Yunchu felt anxious, feeling that this matter was not as simple as it sounded.
"How could Chen Ya be so easily manipulated? When investors refused to invest, he simply changed the script, reduced the budget, and bought the entire budget himself.
"However, that investor is a big shot and threatened to ban Chen Ya from the art world. Considering the risks, Chen Ya simply gave the director position to Su Xiaonuan and retreated behind the scenes."
Qin Yunchu suddenly realized: "So that's how it is. No wonder Su Xiaonuan was the director in the end."
After saying that, she angrily continued, "Who are the investors then? This is a bit too disgusting, isn't it? Not only can the cooperation fail, but they also push people into a desperate situation. This is..."
