Chapter 115

Green returned to his temporary supermarket.

A middle-aged man with his head down, looking very downcast, passed by the door. His hair was blown by the wind and he shivered all over. It seemed that he just found a door next to him.

He hesitated for a moment, took two steps back and walked in through the door.

Green turned on the night light at hand.

The light of the night light was warm-toned, and only a small ball of light was lit. The surroundings were blurry, and the rest of the place was still sleeping in the dark.

In this situation, even if a guest came in, he would feel sleepy, not because of boredom, but because of some kind of body function adjustment, just like wanting to sleep when it gets dark.

Everything was so natural.

The guest did not think this was abnormal.

So after he walked in, he stood at the door for two seconds, then sat down opposite Green. Green handed him a stool.

"Excuse me, can I bother you for a moment?"

He sat on the stool, hunched over like a person who had just had a hangover, and asked Green in a low voice.

He lowered his head while speaking, without even raising his eyes, as if there was something very noteworthy on the ground.

Green glanced at it, and if there was anything worth noting there, it was just a crawling ant.

"Of course, but you look like you have something wrong. Maybe you can tell me.

After all, we didn't know each other before, so you don't have to worry about me spreading your story to your relatives and friends.

There is usually no benefit between strangers, so even if your story is terrible, it won't hurt me, and my attitude towards you won't change easily."

Green said to him.

"Do you want to know about me? Indeed, you and I are strangers, and it doesn't matter if I tell you about this. I've fallen into this state, who can take advantage of me?

Oh, it's still possible, sell me. Maybe you can get at least 1 million that way."

He covered his face and laughed twice, scratched his face until it bled, put down his hand, and wiped the bright red blood and skin debris in his hand on his tattered blue jeans.

"I'll tell you, it's nothing."

He looked at his fingers, smelled the blood, and laughed twice, as if he didn't care about anything, but also as if he cared about too many things and was too tired to do anything else.

"I'm happy to listen."

Green said.

"I was once the son of a very poor woman, but that woman died of a serious illness when I was young. I thought I was going to become an orphan, and I cried and begged her not to die.

She held my hand on the hospital bed and said to me that there was something she wanted to tell me, and it would be too late if I didn't tell it now, and that I must remember it and not forget it.

I nodded and said, I will remember it, but you are too sick now, it is better to wait until you get better.

The woman shook her head and said that she would not get better.

I burst into tears.

Crying is useless, and I clearly heard the woman tell me that I have a rich father whom I have never met.

That was simply terrible.

I thought I was crying my head off and dreaming.

So I didn't believe that sentence at all.

But not long after the woman died, a man came to me and said , he heard that I had no father since I was a child, and he knew a man who might be my father, and that man was very rich.

The slightly younger man brought me to a middle-aged man, who was now old.

He said that I was his illegitimate child.

I accepted this fact, and he told me that he had three children before me, and he had both sons and daughters.

For a moment, I really wanted to ask him, since you already have both sons and daughters, why do you want to have a new one? Since you already have a child, why do you have to have an illegitimate child?

That night he arranged my accommodation, and I lay on a big bed that I had never slept in before, occupying a room by myself, which was something I never dared to dream of.

But I couldn't fall asleep on that bed.

I have a lot of questions to ask.

Did you find out today that you have an illegitimate child, or did you know it many years ago? Did you know that the woman was going to die, or did you just find out that the woman was dead?

If you were really busy, how could you have an illegitimate child? If you were not so busy, and you obviously had an illegitimate child, why didn't you take a look at it? Illegitimate children are not considered human beings, right?

If so, you should not have done it in the first place.

If not, what did you do earlier?

Later he gave me some money.

I grew up gradually, and used the money to open a cinema. At first, I couldn't make ends meet,

but later it got better. I can support myself. Although the money is not much and I am still very tired, I have my own place to live.

I felt very good. I didn't go back, and he didn't contact me. It was as if we had never known each other, but when I saw that cinema, I knew that we knew each other.

I thought so Life will continue forever. If I just continue this kind of life, although it is not good enough, I can be satisfied.

But things did not develop as I imagined.

It was as if a storm suddenly blew over and blew my house down.

My cinema suddenly had more losses than profits.

I am about to go bankrupt.

The money I have now is only enough to buy a very small, very unknown, and recently released movie.

If I can choose a movie that meets these requirements and can make me turn things around, my cinema can continue to watch movies.

If I can't, then I will undoubtedly sleep on the street.

I don't want to sleep on the street and become a beggar.

I don't understand why things have turned out like this, just like I didn't understand why I suddenly turned from an orphan to an illegitimate child, and now I don't understand why my efforts have no results.

I saw a sign outside your door.

Can you do everything? ”

The middle-aged man asked.

"Yes, sir. What do you need me to do for you?"

Green asked.

"Let me tell you my fortune first. I only have one cent to give you now. If you can make me a lot of money, I am willing to split it with you 50-50. Or you can take 70 and I take 30.

I just want the cinema to continue to operate."

The middle-aged man whispered.

"Then what do you want to tell me?"

Green asked.

"I want to know whether I should continue to move forward or not?

I want to know whether I should declare bankruptcy now and use the remaining money to make ends meet for the rest of my life, or take a gamble and buy a movie and put it in the cinema to see whether it will turn around or go into debt?

If asking such things is too difficult, and there are too many things involved, they are too big and too heavy, then I will only ask one question, will I have good luck?"

The middle-aged man looked at Green and asked.

He seemed to have found his backbone suddenly, and regarded Green as the only food he found after being hungry for several days.

His eyes were green and shining, like a hungry wolf that was driven away by the group and had nowhere to go.

"You will have good luck."

Green replied.

"Don't you need anything? Anything will do. Gossip, dice or money or crystal ball, tarot cards. Can you figure it out without anything?"

the middle-aged man asked.

"Yes, sir."

Green said with a smile.

"I don't dare to believe you."

The middle-aged man stood up and seemed to be ready to leave.

"I'm sorry, sir, you said you would give money. 1 cent is also money. If you can give me more money, I can help you calculate more carefully. Do you want it?"

Green asked.

"Can you really help me?"

The middle-aged man looked at Green suspiciously.

"It depends on whether you believe in me. If you believe in me, let me do it. If you don't believe in me, then don't stay. But the more you calculate your life, the thinner it gets."

Green replied with a smile.

The middle-aged man stood there and thought for a while, then handed a penny to Green and sat down again.

"What do you think I should do?"

the middle-aged man asked.

"I'll help you choose a movie, and you buy it and put it in the theater. You'll be rich in a month. But I want a 37% split, seven for me and three for you. Are you willing?"

Green asked.

"Okay, as long as you can make me rich, it doesn't matter if you take seven and I take three."

The middle-aged man thought about it, gritted his teeth and nodded, and made an important decision.

"Let's go see what movies we can buy now."

Green stood up and said.

"Are you leaving now? I thought you were going to wait until tomorrow."

The middle-aged man stood up.

"No need to wait until tomorrow, there's no time to lose."

Green replied.

"Okay then."

The middle-aged man nodded.

He took Green to a busy street in the city.

"This street is all about movies. The first floor is mostly coffee, fried chicken and bakery shops. The second floor is the cinema. The third floor is clothing, jewelry, shoes and daily necessities."

The middle-aged man said to Green.

Green nodded.

The two went up to the second floor and looked for the movie they wanted to buy in the cinema. Green stood in front of a poster with a large number of people. The background of the poster looked like news.

"Are you sure you want to buy this?"

The middle-aged man hesitated.

"This is only 1 million. Isn't it good?"

Green asked.

"It's really cheap.

However, this is not an adaptation and has no fan base. It

's made outside the city, so the language may not be as authentic and appealing. Some words need to be carefully translated to avoid making mistakes locally and causing dissatisfaction among nearby audiences.

I also know that the production company is an old company that has not produced any good works for more than a decade. The boss messed up the company and it changed hands several times. It is almost the same as going bankrupt.

A similar TV series was a big hit a while ago, and the public reputation is very bad.

The actors are not young anymore, and it is said that the male and female protagonists have no emotional line, so it may be difficult to attract the first wave of paying audiences.

The main plot is very novel. If it fails to attract the audience at the beginning, the follow-up will be worse than ordinary movies.

In any case, I can't watch it well. Are you sure? "

The middle-aged man asked.
