Crossover Actors - Chapter 93

[Chapter 93]

The press conference was completely out of control. In order to compete for news, dozens of media surrounded the filmmakers, actors and management teams, and the entire floor was paralyzed.

The hotel can only provide guidance and has no right to restrict everyone’s activities, so the situation could not be mediated for a while. Lian Yiming arrived late and arranged Lu Wen and Qu Yanting in a room on the top floor.

“I usually work overtime and rest here, and no one comes up.” Lian Yiming said, “There are media cars nearby, you will definitely be photographed walking now, just wait.”

Lu Wen nodded: “Thank you . , Mingzi.”

Lian Yiming punched him: “You fucking find me a job.” The fist pressed on that shoulder, “I don’t understand, how can I do it well?”

Lu Wentou With a strong stubbornness, he said, “It’s easy for me to beat him!”

Lian Yiming looked at Qu Yanting’s expression and said, “Then you stay for a while, I’ll deal with it, Teacher Qu, you Take care of him and don’t run around.”

Qu Yanting said “um” apologetically, “I’ve caused you trouble.” The

scene has already exploded. For the media, the incident of “Lu Wen beating Zeng Zhen” is more important than the press conference. It was a hundred times more explosive, and all the reporters refused to leave, desperately trying to dig out more news.

The news quickly spread inside the hotel, and many people joined in the fun, taking pictures of the chaos with their mobile phones and posting them online. The top floor seems to be isolated from the world, so quiet that no noise can be heard. Qu Yanting leaned against the wall, took out his mobile phone and wanted to surf the Internet, but before unlocking the screen, Lu Wenmai

grabbed his wrist and said, “What’s wrong with your hand?”

Driving all the way, blood all over his hands, he finally felt a little pain, and said, “It’s alright, I’ll wash my hands.”

Lu Wen didn’t let go of him, he pressed him on the sofa to find the medicine box, which was specially used when he was a child. I have taken a nursing first aid class, but it is the first time that a person has been disinfected and bandaged.

The cotton ball soaked in alcohol wiped the wound, like re-cutting an old scar, Qu Yanting waited for Lu Wen to ask him, but the other party only lowered his head and wiped it carefully for him.

He endured the pain and opened the leprosy scar by himself: “After the college entrance examination, my first choice is the director department of the Film Academy.”

Because of the tuition fee, Qu Yanting did not give up hope of going to university. Meng, fortunately, he received funding from the book and shadow creator.

Lu Wen changed a cotton ball: “Is that the foundation founded by Zeng Zhen?”

“Well.” The

book and shadow maker had a project that year to subsidize poor students majoring in film. In September, Qu Yanting was successfully admitted to the directing department and became one of Zeng Zhen’s students.

Zeng Zhen was a professor at the Film Academy back then and an idol of countless students. Every time he took a class in the department, it would cause a sensation. At first, he didn’t know who the sponsored students were, and he noticed Qu Yanting purely based on performance.

Lu Wen is not surprised at all. In the crew of “First Night”, Ren Shu mentioned Qu Yanting’s excellence in college many times, and it is expected to be favored.

When the appreciation came, Lu Wen squeezed the cotton ball and asked, “What happened later?”

Qu Yanting’s speech slowed down: “Zeng Zhen knew that I was funded, and he often cared about whether I had any difficulties in life, and said he was willing to take care of me a little more. He said no, he only talked to me about movies later.”

Lu Wen threw away the red cotton ball and said, “I want to talk to you in private?” Qu Yanting

looked at him immediately: “…Yes.”

In the name of homework, I went to Qu Yanting after class to talk about film, photography and creation. At that time, Qu Yanting regarded Zeng Zhen as a role model and benefactor.

Later, Zeng Zhen tried step by step, he would give gifts, he would invite Qu Yanting to go out with him, and he would say some specious words. Qu Yanting confiscated all of them, and did not agree to it, and gradually realized the other party’s implicit and explicit hints.

The ointment was cool and less painful. Qu Yanting said, “But I’m not sure, because I can’t believe he would… I know my sexual orientation, I’m afraid I’m thinking too much.”

There will always be a certain moment . , Lu Wen’s voice was very low: “He didn’t give up, he went a step further, didn’t he?”

Qu Yanting said: “He started to use his job and his status as a professor, so I couldn’t refuse.”

The course of the directing department focuses on practice, Zeng Zhen has too much More opportunities to get close to a student. One semester, he organized a practical activity, and he wanted to select several students to experience life in his crew. Qu Yanting achieved excellent results and was naturally recommended by other teachers.

“He said hello to the head teacher. I couldn’t ask for leave, so I had to agree. Fortunately, I had my classmates as company. On the second night of the crew, Zeng Zhen invited some of our students to dinner. After returning to the hotel, he asked me to help him. Arrange the script for tomorrow’s shooting.”

Lu Wen wrapped the gauze around Qu Yanting’s wound and held the hand: “And then?”

“His assistant was there at the beginning,” Qu Yanting recalled conflictingly, “I didn’t have much. Heart, later he let the assistant go, it was very late, he…”

Lu Wen didn’t realize that he was trying hard: “What did he say to you?”

Qu Yanting was clenched painfully, and replied: “He made it clear. ”

Zeng Zhen pointed out that he likes Qu Yanting, not only between teachers and students. Qu Yanting was very flustered at the time, and immediately rejected Zeng Zhen. He wanted to leave, but the panic quickly turned into fear.

Lu Wen tried his best to restrain himself: “What… did he do?”

“Zeng Zhen won’t let me go.” Qu Yanting looked panicked, “But I’m a man, it’s not so easy to control, my constant refusal finally made him anxious. He slapped me hard.”

Qu Yanting fell to the ground in front of his eyes, his ears buzzing, he half-kneeled and half-crawled and ran out, angering Zeng Zhen. I can’t remember the specific violence, and the struggle has become blurred. I only remember the pain when the punches and feet fell.

Although Zeng Zhen was half head tall, he soon lost most of his strength after drinking. He thought that Qu Yanting was powerless to resist, so he stopped the violence.

“I smashed him with the camera and took the opportunity to escape.” Qu Yanting said, “My face was swollen and the corners of my mouth kept bleeding. I didn’t dare to go back to my room to be seen by my classmates, and I didn’t dare to stay on the set.”

Qu Yanting left the hotel overnight. , didn’t take anything, stumbled and stumbled in the night with a messed up body. He walked along the highway for hours, and at the long-distance station, he saw a row of public phone booths, only to find, sadly, that he had no one to turn to for help.

He sat on the bench at the station until dawn, thinking about his father, Ruan Zhangli, and Ruan Feng who had a new family. After going around, he was alone in the world, crying and laughing like a madman.

Qu Yanting took the first bus to escape and returned to school. He fell ill and did not attend classes for a full month and a half. He hid in the dormitory, resisted socializing with others, and was afraid to come into contact with everything related to Zeng Zhen.

After that incident, Qu Yanting avoided Zeng Zhen as much as possible, went to work in his spare time, and went to Ren Shu’s house on weekends.

With pantothenic acid in his eyes, Qu Yanting sighed and said, “I got close to Ren Shu, and Zeng Zhen deliberately embarrassed him and suppressed his grades to force me.”

Qu Yanting knew Ren Shu’s ability and was afraid of affecting the other’s career. Development, so almost cut off contact after graduation. Without malicious suppression, Ren Shu emerged very quickly in the drama circle. In recent years, he encountered a bottleneck, and Qu Yanting came to him with the script.

Lu Wen didn’t expect to have such a relationship, and immediately thought: “Then you and Xiaofeng are also because of…”

“Yes.” Qu Yanting said, “I’m afraid of being threatened, and later Xiaofeng wants to go to the drama academy and become an actor. It has been concealed until now.”

Zeng Zhen used both hard and soft skills, exerting pressure and threats while using all means to please. The cost of studying in the directing department is very high, and Qu Yanting cannot afford to lose funding. There is no other way but patience.

He naively thought that after graduation, he would be able to stay away and rely on himself to make a decent life. However, in the third year of the internship, the students had their own places. As the best student in the department, no crew wanted him.

Qu Yanting ran into obstacles everywhere. He understood that this was just the beginning. He had no team to follow, and he would not be able to form a team in the future, and he would not be able to attract investment.

“Zeng Zhen forced me to follow him.” Qu Yanting choked with words, “I know, I can’t be a director.”

He lost close relatives again and again, and suffered hardships and humiliations when he was young, but what he supported was his father’s dream. . After the dream was broken, he planned to graduate back to Sichuan and find a job to live on.

Zeng Zhen did not expect that Qu Yanting would give up his future, so he fiddled with the funding. Qu Yanting was told that there was a problem with the funding eligibility, and he had to repay the full cost of the four-year university.

It is the easiest to crush the life and dignity of a poor person. Qu Yanting not only faced the debt problem, but also became the talk of the whole department and even the whole school. There are rumors everywhere he goes to cheat money, cheat, and behind his excellence.

Qu Yanting said: “I want to repay the subsidized money, but I can’t tell whether it is a favor or a debt. It doesn’t matter, I handed over my nominal debut to Zeng Zhen.”

Lu Wen suddenly woke up: “”Shadowman”? Qu Yanting nodded. ”

Shadowman” was the beginning of his dream of directing. When he was a child, he was amazed at the actors in martial arts films. His father told him that half of the credit was due to the stuntman. He felt regretful that the stuntman could not show his true face, like a shadow of a person.

“I polished it for three or four years, and it was originally my first work as a director.” Qu Yanting said, “The script, the director’s script, and the storyboard were all given to Zeng Zhen. I knew he liked it, so I repaid it with this. Four years of tuition fees.”

“Shadow Man” was the box office gold crown that year, and Zeng Zhen earned a hundred times and a thousand times that tuition fee. And Qu Yanting couldn’t tell the difference, his story, the pictures he designed, he imagined that “To my father” in the title… In the end, there was only one “screenwriter” left.

The twist is that Qu Yanting, who is a screenwriter, caught the attention of Wang Mingyu.

The book and shadow writer was actually handled by Wang Mingyu. She didn’t care who Zeng Zhen had a crush on, but Zeng Zhen’s manipulation of funding annoyed her. She found Qu Yanting because of “Shadowman”, and then she learned about everything that Qu Yanting encountered intermittently.

From cherishing talents, to pity, and perhaps the guilt of not punishing evil, Wang Mingyu hoped that Qu Yanting would not give up.

With the encouragement of Wang Mingyu, Qu Yanting changed his studies to screenwriting. At that time, he didn’t know whether the decision was right or not. Over the years, he often wondered whether his persistence was meaningful.

Probably because Wang Mingyu said something at the time, Qu Yanting said: “Master said – director or screenwriter, don’t let the name completely disappear from the screen, there is still a chance to change.”

With a cool cheek, Qu Yanting raised his hand and wiped it. .

Facing the person he loves the most, he dug up all the most embarrassing and darkest memories buried for more than ten years. He shed tears after a long absence and soaked the gauze.

He thought that these would be forgotten in the years, but it turned out to be like a brand, and it did not fade at all.

Qu Yanting said sorry with wet eyes: “I’m sorry, I’m the one who got you involved.”

Lu Wen finally understood why Qu Yanting didn’t want to protect him, because he was struggling in the most helpless predicament, until he was full of brilliance, with only broken teeth all the way. , never had a back to fall back on.

Qu Yanting looked at him: “You hug me… Are you still willing?”

Lu Wen was so heartbroken that he took Qu Yanting into his arms, clasped his shoulders tightly, and kissed the wet cheek.
