Chapter 049 This flattery is a bit embarrassing



The post-production of the film is not difficult. This film itself is a one-person film. The ending leaves a bit of suspense. It can be said to be open-ended, or very ironic, and there is not much to change.

There are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people. After taking a look at this low-budget movie, the leaders of the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television did not hold back as described in some novels. Except for some details that required rectification, they gave the green light to "Buried".

After passing the review, there is still one most important issue, which is the issue of theater broadcasting.

Even if you set a release date, if no theater is willing to accept it, this is also a problem. The release date can only be postponed again and again, and you don’t even know when it will be released.

Director Lu Yuan is a little-known director, and assistant director Wei Wuji is a rookie who has just graduated and has no help from his family. Although the lead actor has acting skills, he is also a person that Joaquin has kept on the shelf, so it is impossible to expect Joaquin to provide any help...

So when Lu Yuan and Fatty Wei knocked on the doors of cinema chains one by one to discuss cooperation on this film, they were basically politely asked to leave the office, and the discussions ended without them even getting to watch the movie.

On the other hand, the movie "Capital" is in its heyday. It has already received support from major theaters such as Tianqin and Wanjia. The publicity work has been in full swing and the popularity is simply too high. When Lu Yuan and Fatty Wei walked into the theater, what caught their eyes was always Shen Lianjie's disgusting handsome face, and of course, the coquettish look of the heroine Liu Fangfei.

Lu Yuan was fine, but Fatty Wei was nauseated. If he hadn't been concerned about his current status as an assistant director, he would have probably vomited a mouthful of thick phlegm...

The world itself is unfair.

There is always a gap between ideal and reality.

All right.

They are just a group of poor guys who were defeated by reality.

"I say, if this problem is not solved, let alone fighting with Shen Lianjie, it will be difficult to even make money and make back the money."

"yes."

"There are only three theaters left. Let's go on another run."

"I'm afraid the ending won't be too far off."

"Damn, they denied it without even watching it. Is it so difficult to watch a movie?"

"Hey...isn't our publicity good enough?"

"There's no money for advertising, Ayuan, why don't you take out your little treasury and put it on the advertising..."

“How much does it cost to advertise?”

"About four or five hundred thousand."

"How about we get some flyers?"

"Fuck, this is too embarrassing. We are high-quality talents and we can't do this."

“…”

"Is this cigarette, Old Man Li, fake? It doesn't taste right!"

"I think so."

"Go and argue with him?"

"Forget it, it's just a pack of cigarettes...only eight bucks, damn, I'm making a fortune, I want to smoke the twenty bucks ones!"

"Um……"

Lu Yihong left.

Back to Joaquin.

After all, although he is now in the blacklist, he is still a Joaquin employee and he still has to go where he should go.

Li Qing left.

Li Qing was an employee of "Ducheng" from Tianyu. He had finished his work on "Buried Alive", so he left too.

There are only Fatty Wei and Lu Yuan in the entire huge "Remote" Entertainment. It's simply a shell company.

Just after noon, after being rejected once again, the two men squatted beside the bluestone slabs of East Street, smoking "Honglan" under vicious gazes, and found the cigarette more and more unpalatable.

Why does the originally fragrant cigarette taste bitter?

"Quit it." Fatty Wei put out his cigarette butt and said, "I won't smoke anymore."

"Well, let's quit." Lu Yuan also nodded, "Well, I won't smoke again today. Let's go and find the next one."

"good!"

The setting sun dyed half the sky red, and the streets of Hengdian were filled with noise and bustle.

Fatty Wei felt that the smile on his face had become stiff, but he was still "politely" invited out.

There is no doubt that no cinema of any size will have a place for "Buried".

This is actually a very sad story.

And desperate at the same time.

“What are you always staring at your phone for?”

"I want to call my dad, but I don't dare."

"Oh? Why?"

“Because of the dream…”

"Nonsense!" Lu Yuan glanced at the sweaty Fatty Wei and shook his head, thinking that Fatty Wei was quite pretentious.

"My dad is very powerful, but I don't like his temper, so I never bow my head."

"oh?"

"Ayuan, this is my first movie to prove myself. Do you want to bow your head?"

"If you don't want to bow your head, then don't bow your head. You have hands and feet, what are you afraid of?" Lu Yuan looked at Fatty Wei who was rarely serious and immediately shook his head.

"Yeah, that's right." Fatty Wei nodded, and finally retracted his hand, with a smile in his eyes, "Ayuan, you're right, I want to learn from you. After being in contact with you for such a long time, damn, I suddenly feel more and more that I am not as good as you... You are the template of the protagonist!"

"What are you learning? Have you ever seen such a protagonist?" Lu Yuan was speechless.

Learn to smoke like me?

Lu Yuan didn't feel any pleasure from flattering at this time. Instead, it sounded a bit like irony.

"I haven't met you, but I know you have many qualities that I don't have, such as perseverance, unprecedented pride and self-confidence, and brilliant genius. Of course, this is not important. What's important is your terrible ambition." Fatty Wei was still very serious.

“???” Lu Yuan was confused when he heard these words.

Ambition?

Could it be that my idea of ​​opening a restaurant and making a lot of money was spoken out in my sleep?

Lu Yuan suddenly felt weak.

"With your qualifications and talent, any entertainment company would welcome you and you would be treated like a rising star. Even if you didn't debut as a lyricist, you would be famous in the entertainment industry. But you didn't go and instead stayed here. Doesn't this prove something?"

"ah?"

"Ayuan, I understand you. You look down on these companies. You want to build an entertainment company that's better than theirs. Although you usually laugh and look nonchalant, don't think I don't know that you're secretly reading Qiao Ben's book 'How to Start a Business'."

“???” Lu Yuan was speechless because of Fatty Wei’s imagination.

"Unprecedented ambition, unprecedented aspirations! Ayuan, you can do it, we can all do it. This is just a temporary predicament, tomorrow will be better, let's work together to build this company up!" Fatty Wei patted Lu Yuan's shoulder and stood up, then looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle. In the afterglow of the setting sun, Fatty Wei looked quite sacred, as if the loss just now was swept away in an instant and he became a different person.

etc!

And what does this full of basic feeling mean?

"Since you're so excited, you can treat me to dinner tonight." Lu Yuan was somewhat infected.

"Why should I treat you?"

"Because I let you learn something, and learning naturally requires payment. I'm giving you a bargain by just asking you to pay for the meal!"

"Dry!"

After dinner and some drinks, the two returned to the company in a daze.

When pushing the door, Lu Yuan saw two men walking towards him.

"Your name is Lu Yuan, right?"

"Hmm? You are..."

"I'm Zhou Shuai, a reporter from Huaxia Peripheral Entertainment News. I want to ask you a few questions."

"What's the problem?"

"You know An Xiao, right?"

"What?"

"An Xiao has been here, hasn't he?"

“So what are you going to do?”

"Lu Manzi, it's you, right!" Zhou Shuai's eyes lit up when he saw Lu Yuan's expression!

"Hmm?" Lu Yuan was slightly stunned, then he smiled. "The weather is really nice today, Fatty Wei, don't you think so?"

"Yeah, it's really good..." Fatty Wei nodded, walked around to the back, and looked very smiling.

"???" Zhou Shuai felt very strange about this inexplicable answer, but then...

“Bang!”

"What are you doing? What are you doing!"

"What are you doing!?"

"No, I was wrong!"

Under the cover of night...

Lu Yuan and Fatty Wei jumped up at the same time, one holding his legs and the other covering his mouth, and dragged him into the house like a pig to be slaughtered and locked the door...

There were panicked “woooooooooo” sounds in the house...

The night is long.

Night, quiet.
