It was almost noon and she hadn't received Ye Weixin's text message yet. Lily felt strange. She asked others but didn't receive it. What's going on? Has the contract been signed?
This point shouldn¡¯t bother him now, right? Thinking of this, she stopped heading to the cafeteria and called. However, after beeping for a long time, she was not connected. When she called again after a while, her phone was turned off! Are you busy with something?
She had some doubts and thought about it and called Lev, "Hi, have you received any new news from Wei?"
"No, you haven't either? That's strange! I sent many text messages to Brother Wei, but he only replied to one, saying he was not available and would contact me when he had time. He seemed very busy."
"Oh, okay." Lily put down her phone and was busy with the things after signing the contract? She didn't know what the process was, so she could only wait.
But she always had a bad feeling in her heart. No matter how busy she was, there was always time to reply to a text message, but she was okay
¡¡
After leaving Cheyenne Enterprise, Ye Wei dragged his suitcase and walked aimlessly on the streets of Santa Monica. From time to time he would stop for a long time, looking at the traffic and passers-by with an expressionless face.
His soul seemed to be frozen, and he looked at these things like an outsider. He was happy and celebrating before, but today he felt nothing about these fucked up things. Is this a kind of psychological defense system of human beings, like this when they are suddenly hit hard?
He didn't know, he had no idea how he ended up like this. Because of that dream, he knew the dangers of the world, knew a lot of knowledge, and had matured a lot. But he had never experienced anything like this. After all, he was a man who was one month shy of 16 years old. juvenile.
After walking bravely along the way, I suddenly found that I had fallen into a dark swamp, and the water was almost reaching my head.
Why? Why is this so? Bruce Willis is obviously a good man who is willing to give young people a chance. He has obviously agreed. He was so excited about the whole plan that day! Why do you regret it again and want to use such despicable means to defraud "Little Miss Sunshine"
Just thinking about this matter for a moment, Ye Wei felt a breathless heart twitching, so he stopped and put his mind in a numb state.
A win-win situation? He didn't think about it, he didn't want to think about it at all, but he could feel that darkness was coming from all directions and was about to swallow him
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Ye Wei suddenly found himself outside his father's dental clinic, entered the small building, and looked around at the door of the clinic. In the hall, he saw his father in a white coat and a mask standing next to the dental chair. While performing some dental surgery on a client, Michelle, an old black nurse, was helping.
"Anesthetic." Dad said.
Michelle handed him a small syringe filled with medicine, and her father skillfully and carefully injected the patient on the chair, "It hurts a little, bear with it, it will be fine soon."
Ye Wei watched secretly for a while, then turned and left. He didn't want to disturb the operation. Lovett's words rang faintly in his ears: "Your father works so hard and goes to work on weekends. Can you bear it?" And his father replied every day. Home, the exhausted look, comes to mind
After leaving the clinic, Ye Wei walked all the way back to Brentwood from Santa Monica. He walked for two hours and returned to his home at almost noon.
During this period, Lev and the others sent text messages to ask how they were doing. Lily also called, but he didn¡¯t want to answer the call. He didn¡¯t know what to say. Nothing was clear yet. What should he say?
Failed? Things have changed. You could have been in the limelight just because I wanted to be a producer and director, but you are all in trouble because of me
Lily, No. 6 lost this time Did she lose? The game is over?
"Mom, I'm back."
Ye Wei shouted and entered the room. Toto ran up happily and came to the dining room. He saw his mother sitting at the dining table again, immersed in translating documents. There were always so many documents to be translated, and it seemed that they had never been reduced. , always piled on top of each other.
Mom looked up and smiled expectantly, "Is it time for me to sign the contract?"
"Wellthere was a small problem with the contract and it needs to be revised, so" Ye Wei shrugged with a wry smile. It seemed that Lawyer Salton didn't tell them.
"What's the problem? Are you okay?" Mom was a little aware of it. Ye Wei immediately laughed out loud, waving his hands and walking towards the back garden: "It's nothing, I don't know much about the lawyer." Mom had no doubts and asked, "Have you had lunch? There is food in the freezer."
"I've already eaten, where's Duoduo?" Ye Wei was not in the mood to eat at all.
"She went to the beach with the Langdon family and came back in the evening."
"What? Mom, are you relieved?" Ye Wei was shocked, although Mrs. Langdon¡¯s family is very kind and occasionally helps take care of Duoduo, but! Mom has never been like this before
"Your sister is making noises about going, but I can't help it. It's okay. It's not the first time recently." Mom frowned and went back to the pile of documents. "I'm very busy with the work at hand. Are you still going to school in the afternoon? I don¡¯t have time to take you there, please call a taxi.¡±
Ye Wei lowered his eyes and shook his head, "I'm not going, I'm busy with some things I just came back to take a look. I'm going out now. Goodbye, mom" He turned and left, and the disgusting words rang out again: Your mother? Your sister? Are they doing well?
500,000 signed advance payment, Malibu vacation villa, talent creation plan, 20-year-old feature film director just not filming "Little Miss Sunshine"
Bank debt, terrible dreams, even more difficult roads, all people are happy, failed, disappointed
"Sometimes, I really hate dream chasers like you! It's a waste of your talent and your youth!"
¡°Our dream has come true!¡±
"Forward, only, forward!"
Messy thoughts and broken words swept through his mind like a storm, rolling up waves, entangled, tumbling, and turbulent. He shook his head violently, scratched his head severely, and slapped his forehead until it was almost over. Vomiting, but those damn sounds are still coming
Faintly, there seemed to be a voice of his own: "Agree? What you got is pretty good, right? As they say, be sensible and smart, agree?"
The voice became clearer and clearer: Why bother? When you become a big shot, these will be nothing, so why are you still hesitating? I really don¡¯t understand why you insist? Why?
"No, no, no"
Ye Wei dragged his suitcase down the street and shook his head to dispel the hateful sound. Why? Because I don¡¯t want to be a despicable person that I disdain. If I abandon all my beliefs for the so-called success, then what joy will there be if I succeed?
That¡¯s actually a failure, isn¡¯t it?
"No!! No!!!" He suddenly shouted, his wide eyes about to burst, "I don't want to be that kind of person, I, Ye Wei, am not that kind of person I am not a zombie, and I am not a living person either. I am a heroI am a hero"
The fire in the eyes is still burning. Although it is in a stormy environment, unstable and very weak, the fire has not been extinguished
There is always a way, there is always a way
He took out his cell phone, turned it on, and called someone.
¡¡
It was around three o'clock in the afternoon, when Harvard-Westlake was out of school, and Lily was getting more and more worried, but she still didn't reply to any message! Something must have happened.
Suddenly, the phone vibrated with an incoming call. She quickly took it out and saw that it was from Ramo. She answered the call in confusion as she walked towards the green belt on the roadside where there were few people.
"Good afternoon, Ramo."
"Lily, a piece of bad news" Ramo's deep voice came from the phone, as if it was difficult to say it. Lily was surprised: "Is this Wei's problem? What happened to him?" Ramo sighed: "I just found out that when he asked me for my father's mobile phone number at noon, I couldn't hear anything unusual"
"What's wrong!?"
"That old man is crazy. I'm really ashamed of him. He's crazy." Rameau was depressed and ashamed, with no hint of arrogance. "They no longer want to be the producers and directors of "Little Miss Sunshine." , and it seems that he also used some shady tricks to take away the project, but he didn't agree. He he must be very sad. "
What? What¡¡! ? Lily was stunned, shook her head to regain consciousness, and said anxiously: "What do you know? Tell me everything!"
"I don't know much"
¡¡
In Crestwood Villa Park, Ye Wei was sitting in the woods on a hillside, leaning against the beautiful big tree, talking on his mobile phone.
It still beeped a few times and was immediately disconnected. Willis refused to answer. This was already the thirty-second time from noon to now.
At this time, there was a call on his mobile phone. It was Lily again. She had called five times, but he really didn't want to answer the call. He wanted to have the next conversation with her to continue the excitement from the last time and talk about success. Joy, not sadness and disappointment.
He sent her another text message: "I'm really fine. I'm busy with business, so don't disturb me now, thank you."
Almost instantly, she replied to the text message: "Where are you? I will face it with you."
She knowsGot it? What bastard told her that! Too much nosy! What to face, face to face a bunch of bullshit! ? Isn¡¯t it fun!
Ye Wei almost threw the phone away, but endured it, pressed the keypad of the phone, and sent a text message to Willis: "Mr. Willis, what are you afraid of? A tough guy who doesn't dare to answer a call? Do you have You can tell me clearly what you think, don¡¯t act like a little girl!¡±
After a while, he called for the thirty-third time, and this time after beeping nearly ten times, the call suddenly connected!
Ye Wei's eyes immediately brightened, he sat up straight and gained strength, "Mr. Willis, I'm sorry, it was just a provocation, we need to have a good talk!"
"There is no need." Willis's voice was very calm, as if what was extremely important to him was nothing to the big shot.
The soft voice came from the mobile phone: "This is what it is. They have told you clearly enough that I have something wrong, but it is what it is. In Hollywood, anything can change, anyone can change, even It's your family.
"However, I have indeed been tempted, and I have indeed promised you, but I also want to win the Oscar, which is something you cannot bring to me. And the changed plan is still very good for your age and status! Do you have to be so anxious and greedy? If you obey me now, in a few years, you will definitely have the opportunity to direct. "
It was still Lovett's rhetoric. Ye Wei lowered his head and said, "Sir don't be fooled by those people. The Mr. Willis I know is a sincere, friendly man who is willing to give opportunities to young people ¡¡±
"Okay, that's it. If you change your mind, just contact Lovett and stop harassing me. I can blacklist you. Don't let me do that."
As soon as Willis finished speaking, he hung up, leaving only a beep sound on his phone.
Ye Wei's face turned pale and he was stunned for a long time before he put down his phone. He shook his head and smiled, not knowing why he was smiling, big shot? This is the big shot.
He threw the phone away and hit the suitcase next to him with a bang. He turned around to look at it, opened the suitcase, and was startled again.
The arrangement of the documents in the box was exactly the same as when he left it. Even the sketch had not been touched and was still sandwiched at the front of the storyboard document Willis had never read it at all. To be precise, he had not seen it at all. This box has not been opened.
"Hahaha!" He couldn't help laughing, "Hahahaha!"
Scenes from the past few months emerged before my eyes. The scene at the Ivy Restaurant, the scene in Las Vegas, the scene in Santa Monica It seemed like it was yesterday. The anxiety and rescues again and again flooded my mind. ! Resultresult!
"Hahahahaha!" He smiled, took out the sketch, folded it into a paper airplane, threw it out with all his strength, and whistled: "Take off, Sheriff!!"
The paper plane swayed in the air, flew more than ten meters, and fell on the grass on the hillside.
"Oh, the plane crashed, hahaha"
Soon, another paper plane appeared in the sky, and then another.
¡¡
After answering Ramona¡¯s call, Lily was both angry and worried, but Yu¡¯s text message only aggravated her worries.
Although there was training for the track and field team, how could she still stay in school? While leaving in a hurry, she called everyone to ask about Wei's news and whereabouts. She wanted to see him. At such a difficult time, she just wanted to Stay with him
When taking a taxi to Ye Wei's house, Lily still couldn't find him. His mother didn't know the situation or where Wei went. She pretended to be fine and left, but she was in Brentwood at noon. Is she still there now? where?
She suddenly thought of a place, that big tree! He was there, she felt it.
??Continue to take a taxi to the destination. Ten minutes later, Lily arrived at the park. It was past 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Only the recreational facilities in the west had some tourists, and the woods in the north were very quiet.
When she went up the hillside and didn't go far, she saw some paper airplanes scattered everywhere on the forest grass. They were obviously newly folded, and there were pencil drawings and words on the paper. She picked one up in confusion, and she was surprised to see it. It's a storyboard from "Dance of Angels"
With her eyes widened in panic, she picked up another one a few steps away. It was a page of script, and you could see the lines written by Wei's hand: "Interior Scene 5, Anna's house, day and night change"
But, don't be like this, don't hurt yourself Picking up paper airplanes one after another, her heart hurt so much that it felt like it was about to burst. Only then did she realize that it was possible to feel so heartbroken for another person She suddenly threw them away. With arms full of paper airplanes, I ran forward and saw them, but Wei was sitting next to the big tree!
He lowered his head and folded his head again?The paper airplane, I don¡¯t know what document it was used for.
"Wei!" Lily shouted before anyone arrived.
Ye Wei over there raised his head. When he saw her, his whole body suddenly turned from calm to madness. He grabbed his head with one hand and crumpled the unfinished paper airplane into a ball with the other hand and threw it away.
He stood up, shook his hands angrily, and suddenly kicked the open suitcase next to him, causing the paper to fly, and then punched the tree, "What bastard!! Can't you keep your mouth shut!" ! Don¡¯t come here, leave me alone!¡±
Lily walked over anyway, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said softly: "Wei, I just want you to know that I am on your side"
Ye Wei turned around and looked at her, his eyes filled with red bloodshot eyes. He suddenly said nothing, like a crazy beast, and hugged her face with both hands, kissing her eyebrows and nose fiercely. , her mouth
"Wellwell" Lily was naturally not comfortable being treated roughly by him, but she did not avoid it. She hugged him behind her back, caressing his back, and responded to his kiss with her lips.
But as soon as she kissed back, Ye Wei stopped, lowered his head, and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm sorryLily, I'm sorry, I'm terrible"
"No, Wei, you are great." Lily comforted her, her heartache getting heavier and heavier, and she was a little breathless.
He gradually hugged her tightly and buried his head on her right shoulder, while his shoulders were shaking slightly, and his words were: "It's over, those sweet dreams are all over I'm not a hero, I'm just a loser just a naive, stupid, delusional loser, I have no choice, I can't do anything, it's over"
"No, noit's not over!" Lily also hugged him tightly, her eyes filled with tears, but her eyebrows were always cheerful, and her voice was firm: "Someone once told me, 'As long as you dare to dream, everything is possible!' That person is you, Ye Wei, that is you! As long as you dare to dream, the dream will never end!"
She choked up suddenly and kissed his hair, "Wei, don't give up! I like people who try hard but fail, but I don't like people who give up! Don't give up, just be yourself!"
Ye Wei was silent, his shoulders gradually calming down As she whispered "Don't give up" over and over again, for a while, his breathing gradually stabilized
"Beauty Then you are in love trouble, because that guy named Ye Wei never gives up!"
He suddenly spoke, raised his head, kissed her lips, and then let her go. Lily showed a happy smile and shouted: "This is Wei, the Wei I like!"
"I want to make a phone call." Ye Wei smiled, his eyes no longer showing confusion, his face resolute, "I have the answer to this matter."
"Huh?" Lily blinked.
Ye Wei searched for it on the grass, picked up his phone, and first sent a text message to Willis, "Sir, I have thought it through. I have made a decision and want to tell you." Then he called Willis for the thirty-third time today. Liss, the other party answered the call readily this time, and he smiled: "Hey, Sheriff, good news!"
Lily looked at him intently, and Willis's voice came from the mobile phone: "Boy, do you finally know how to make smart choices?"
"Yes, my choice is very smart, you know" Ye Wei's tone was extremely serious, and his voice gradually became louder: "I am indeed your fan, I like your performance, and I also like your deeds, I am indeed I used to respect you. But now? My answer is, FUCK-YOU!
And fuck your agent, fuck your PR spokesperson, fuck your corporate partners, fuck your lawyer! Fuck-your Oscar dreams! ! Bye-Bye! ! ! "
After shouting, he hung up. Look at the phone screen, it was him who hung up! Not that despicable superstar!
Lily was stunned, looking in disbelief, and opened her mouth: "The person you called just now was Bruce Willis?"
"Yes!" Ye Wei looked at her and laughed loudly: "Fuck him! Want to threaten me? Trim me? They are really wrong, because I am a person who is not free or would rather die!" He raised his fist and raised his voice loudly Shouting: ¡°Fuck them!!!¡±
"Pfft hahaha!" Lily also laughed excitedly, "Wei, your choice is great!" He is so handsome! She suddenly couldn't help but rush towards him for a hug!
Ye Wei hugged her with both hands, rotated and lifted her up a little, smiled face to face, looked into the eyes, and then kissed her passionately¡ª¡ª
The skirt corners are flying, heaven is at this moment.
