After finishing their work these days, Gu Yi took his grandma to the hospital to have his legs checked. They found the apprentice of a well-known orthopedic surgeon.
It's just that the doctor has been taking his apprentice some time ago, either attending medical meetings outside or doing flying knives, and he only came back during this time.
In fact, Gu Yi wanted to go to the doctor directly, but Song Fuxing also said that if it was a common problem for the elderly, there was actually no need to go to that kind of expert. After all, it was just some basic geriatric diseases, not a big problem.
After blood was drawn and X-rays were taken in the hospital, the doctor said that the pain in the old man's legs was just due to the growth in the bones as he aged, which was normal.
In addition, the blood pressure of the elderly is slightly high, but it is relatively normal for people of this age.
If a young person has this kind of blood pressure, he or she needs to take medicine to treat it.
There are no big problems in other aspects.
So the doctor gave a total of two suggestions. The first suggestion was to replace the knee. But the elderly are getting older now, and they may have some problems after the replacement. But if they do this surgery, the chance of problems is not high. big.
The second is to keep it as it is, and then the doctor will prescribe some medicine for you to take for a month. If you still feel uncomfortable later, you can prescribe medicine again.
Gu Yi left this decision to his family.
But my uncle and aunt were also a little undecided.
Because both options have their pros and cons.
"Mom, do you think you would like to change it like this? If you change it, your leg will definitely not hurt as much as before, but you just need to have surgery and rest for a while.
If you just take medicine, you will definitely still have leg pain, and the medicine also has side effects. "
Grandma thought for a while: "Then if the knee is replaced, the leg will be fine. And I am so old, it will definitely heal slowly."
"Grandma, the doctor said that if they let them do the surgery, it will be much easier in the future, but they have to rest for at least three months. During these three months, the legs may be swollen and painful, and they will definitely be uncomfortable. After all, they are not original. Yes."
Grandma sat in the hospital and thought for a long time.
"Then I'd better change it. I also know that I can't cure my old age just by taking medicine. Moreover, medicine is 30% poisonous. If I take too much medicine, if something goes wrong again, it will cause trouble for you again.
I just thought that if the knee can be healed after being replaced, then I might as well replace it. Let you work harder to take care of me for three or four months, which is better than when I can't walk anymore. You had to take care of me several years ago. . "
But Gu Yi could still see from her eyes that she was a little scared.
After all, he has lived for more than seventy years without ever having an operation. If he suddenly has to have an operation this time, he will definitely feel a little uneasy. Not to mention grandma, if Gu Yi has some problem and needs an operation, then Gu Yi will also have to worry about it. Hit for a while.
But even though grandma made the decision, the third uncle still called the family group and talked about it.
Although the uncle felt that there was no need to change it as he got older and other problems might arise in the future, the third uncle said that the doctors at Yanjing Hospital here are among the top doctors in the country.
When the time comes, the surgery will also be performed by experts in this field.
In the end, the uncle didn't say anything. After all, since the old man was willing to have the operation, let's do it.
Others asked Uncle San how much the surgery would cost, and then everyone shared it equally. When grandma finished the surgery and needed someone to take care of her, everyone could take turns.
"It's okay. Erdan has the money and it won't actually cost much. Besides, it's not suitable to run long distances after the surgery, so we plan to live at Erdan's house for a few months first and wait until mom's leg is healed. go back."
There is nothing we can do about this. Although grandma prefers to live in the countryside, it is not convenient to fly, train, or drive just after the surgery. Secondly, in case there is another problem in the future If there is any minor problem or if you need to go back for regular check-ups and dressing changes after the operation, it will be more convenient.
In this way, the family finally agreed to let grandma have the operation, and asked the third uncle and the third aunt to take good care of grandma. If something happens during the operation, they can tell them that they can take turns to take care of her.
After making the call, Yu Xue also rushed over.
Because there was something going on at her house today, it was delayed for a while.
After that, the third uncle and the third aunt waited here with grandma, while Gu Yi and Yu Xue went to the doctor together and then went through the hospitalization procedures.
Although the beds here are relatively tight, the hospital still arranged a VIP ward for them.
The ward is like home, with beds, sofas, separate bathrooms, separate bedrooms, and two beds for nursing staff.
If Gu Yi was an ordinary person, he might stay in a general ward. After all, in a hospital like this, people from all over the country come to see the doctor every day, so it would be nice to have a ward.
Furthermore, the cost of visiting a VIP ward is not generally high.
But now that Gu Yi has the conditions, he still wants to make his family's life more comfortable.
Otherwise, in a general ward, there will inevitably be other patients. Although we can chat during the day, at night it is inevitable that some patient or a patient's family member will snore.
My legs will definitely hurt after the surgery, and I won't be able to sleep at night. If there's any more noise in the room, I'll be even more unable to sleep.
After finishing the work, Gu Yi and Yu Xue went out to buy various daily necessities for hospitalization.
But when she was shopping outside, Yu Xue asked: "When grandma finishes the operation, let them all live in our home, and don't run back and forth. We will wait until she is completely healed."
"Yeah, that's what I thought too."
"Well, it's really not easy for old people to get old. Most of the people in the hospital just now were old people, and did you see that there was a big brother who lost one of his legs?"
"I saw it, but they should have re-examined it. I heard them say that my uncle was driving a forklift on the construction site and accidentally broke his nephew's leg."
"Well, living in the hospital is really annoying. Even a good person will have some problems if he stays here for a long time. No wonder Dr. Mou wants to play bumper cars to relax every two days."
While chatting, the two bought things outside and then returned to the hospital.
However, even if you decide to have surgery, it is impossible to arrange it immediately on the same day. During these few days, the old man will have to have infusions and check various physical indicators.
So their surgery is currently scheduled for Tuesday next week.
Let the expert lead the students to do it.
After everything was arranged, the nurse came over and gently warned her about the precautions for the next period of time before leaving.
But the third uncle pulled Gu Yi aside.
"Erdan, do you think I should give the doctor a red envelope? Besides, a doctor in a big hospital like this should have a bigger red envelope."
After hearing this, Gu Yi smiled and said: "No, the doctors in this hospital don't accept red envelopes. Even if you give them to them, they won't take them. Third uncle, I have asked my friends about this before, because this is where I was." My child care friend asked about it, and he said that people used to give red envelopes, but usually the doctor would collect the money first and return it after the operation.
Or maybe he accepted the red envelope after giving it, and then paid it directly into the patient's hospital account. "
"And my grandma's surgery is not troublesome."
The third uncle nodded: "Then what if we don't give red envelopes and the doctor doesn't do a good job?"
Gu Yi couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this: "Uncle can't do it well. If the operation is not done well, the patient's family will definitely come to trouble. For the doctor here, since the operation can be done well, then there is no need It takes a lot of effort to do something bad.
How much money can we give in red envelopes? I'll give you a hundred and eighty thousand yuan, but if this matter is found out in the future, you won't even be able to be a doctor in the future. It's impossible to ruin your reputation just because of this little money, and I'm already an expert now. .
If we were to see a doctor at our place and ask someone to come over for surgery, we might have to pay a hard-earned fee, but since we are in this hospital, we don’t have to. "
The third uncle nodded.
"Okay, but Erdan, if you have anything to do later, you can go and get busy first. There are mine and auntie's here, and this ward is very good, and there is a kitchen. We can also cook some simple meals here in the future."
Gu Yi also nodded, then took out a card from his body and put it in his third uncle's hand.
"Uncle, please take this card first. I saved some money in it. Although there is a kitchen here, it is still not easy to cook. You can just cook porridge or something. So if you and your aunt want to eat, Just buy some from outside.
Although grandma is going to have an operation this time, you have to pay attention to your health while you are here. If you usually have any meals and fruits you want to eat, just go and buy them. The money in it should be enough. If If it's gone, I'll put it in again. "
But when Uncle San heard this, although he didn't know how much money Gu Yi had put into it, Gu Yi had already paid for all the treatment expenses.
They chose the best materials and medicines, so they spent hundreds of thousands on surgery-related expenses alone.
And now the ward they live in costs two thousand yuan a day, so they don't want Gu Yi to pay any more.
"No, how can we get you to pay for this? No matter how rich you are, you are still a child in our eyes. You have already paid enough before."
But Gu Yi shook his head and did not accept the card that his third uncle pushed back.
"Third Uncle, just keep it, and this money is not just for you. In case grandma needs to have a checkup later, the money in it will also be used. The password is 123456, and the money is not for me now." It’s nothing to me, so uncle, you don’t have to give in to me.”
In fact, Gu Yi also has an idea that his third uncle and third aunt may stay in Yanjing for three or four months this year. In this way, they will no longer have time to take care of the family's land and pond, and will lose their income. Gu Yi also Don't want them to work too hard.
So he put 300,000 yuan into his card. This money will not only be spent in the hospital, but will also be needed for living expenses when he is discharged from the hospital.
Just like that, Gu Yi forcefully pushed the card into the third uncle's hand and asked the third uncle to install it.
After that, Gu Yi and Yu Xue stayed here until night before going back.
Whether it's Gu Yi or grandma's other children, they still want the third uncle and the third aunt to take care of them here. In this way, even if they need to go out to buy something, one person can be left alone. Look after grandma.
If grandma needs to go to the bathroom or feels uncomfortable, at least there will be someone to greet her.
After taking care of grandma's affairs, Gu Yi will go to his new job.
The dubbing that had been completed previously was delayed for a while due to Gu Yi's temporary work, and it was difficult to delay it any longer now.
So, Gu Yi came to the dubbing studio the next day.
The price offered here is not high, a whole season of dubbing is only 20,000 yuan.
Compared with Gu Yi's current salary as an actor, it is basically better than nothing, and even compared with some well-known voice actors, it is much less.
After all, if some well-known voice actors can find good projects and work hard, they can make hundreds of thousands a month.
But this job is a try for Gu Yi.
Although I have acted in TV series and movies before, I basically voiced myself, and they were all real people.
Gu Yi wanted to try something new, so the salary was not important to him.
"Gu Yi, welcome, we are all your fans from top to bottom in our company."
After arriving at the animation production company, the company boss came out to greet him personally.
Although it was only 20,000 yuan, they all knew how valuable Gu Yi was.
If you can cooperate with Gu Yi, then as long as you put this name in the promotion, this entry alone will become a hot search.
The other party first took Gu Yi and Song Fuxing to visit the company.
"We here used to mainly make Chinese-style animation." Gu Yi couldn't help but said while looking at the various works on display.
"Yes, compared to RB, our animation has not fully developed its own characteristics, so when I was still working as a studio, I wanted to make our own animation, so the animation produced by our company also has It’s Chinese style. Most of what we did before was in the martial arts aspect, but now people don’t seem to like watching martial arts so much, so now we also plan to consider the mythological aspect.”
"Mythology is still very exciting. This type of story is actually not that easy to present in film and television. Not only the actors are selected, but also the level of special effects. I have also seen some of the 3D animation movies we have made before, although some The plot is not bad, but the technology is still a lot worse. On the contrary, this 2D painting style has its own characteristics."
"Yeah, I didn't expect Teacher Gu Yi to know a lot about this."
"I can only be regarded as doing my best. After all, you are the professionals."
The other party smiled: "We are still groping forward. Many technologies are blocked outside and are not allowed to be used by us, so we can only do it ourselves. But Teacher Gu Yi, I am actually concerned about what you said in the live broadcast room before. I was very interested in the "Journey to the West" I had read. There was a complete system in that story, and the setting felt quite grand. Although I had also watched more than a hundred hours of video content they compiled online, I felt that The live broadcast alone doesn’t fully tell the story.”
"Yes, this story is actually only a small part of it. In addition, many gods in heaven also have their own stories. If we really want to tell it, it will not take more than a hundred hours. It may take more than 100 hours. It will increase another hundred times from the original basis.”
"It's amazing. I wonder when Teacher Gu plans to finish this story?"
"That'll have to wait. I think it would be great if I could finish it in my lifetime." Gu Yi said with a smile.
"But Teacher Gu, having said this, my idea is, can you sell us the animation copyright of "Journey to the West"? We really want to develop it."
"We have to talk about this later. In fact, last year, I went to the Propaganda Department for a meeting, and they also wanted me to develop this story."
"Okay, you'll be busy during this period. Once you finish working on this anime, we'll find a time to sit down and chat."
"That's okay too."
Gu Yi said.
The current scale of this animation production company named Xinghai is not outstanding in China. Although it has produced many animations before, its current market value is only around 4 to 5 billion.
Not that big.
Whether we want to cooperate again in the future will have to be investigated again.
At least you have to compare it with other companies.
Afterwards, Gu Yi came to the dubbing studio.
I got to know the dubbing director and other dubbing actors here.
But this was Gu Yi's first contact with anime dubbing, and he still had a lot to learn.
This anime is scheduled to be released in June next year, so there is no rush at this time.
"Teacher Gu Yi, you are a well-known actor, so your emotional expression in dubbing should not be a problem. Otherwise, you can try dubbing a few lines first, and then we will see where adjustments need to be made."
Gu Yi nodded.
Then I took a look at the lines and worked up my emotions.
"When you kill all the evil people in the world, what's the use? Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. This world is not an ideal paradise. When you kill all the evil people in the world, there will be more. When a bad guy appears, what is a good guy? What is a bad guy? There is no absolute goodness, so why don't you follow your heart and kill him?"
After Gu Yi finished speaking, the dubbing director here thought for a while.
"The overall feeling is good, but there is one problem. I always feel that it is too restrictive and not open enough. I might as well let go of my emotions a little more, because animation itself does not have the limitations of real people. We can use very exaggerated The facial expressions are used to express the character’s psychology at this time.”
Gu Yi thought about it for a while.
Then I tried a few more times.
"Yes, yes, that's the feeling. You have to be free to express it. Many lines that would appear exaggerated in movies and TV dramas are actually completely fine here."
Gu Yi nodded.
In the next two days, Gu Yi came to practice early every morning and learned professional dubbing skills from these voice actors.
There were many things Gu Yi had never known before.
Gu Yi had seen on the Internet that many voice actors could produce more than a dozen timbres by themselves, but because he had never been exposed to this aspect, Gu Yi had never thought about systematically learning dubbing.
But these two days, these voice actors opened Gu Yi's eyes.
"Really awesome."
Gu Yi saw with his own eyes that a poor voice actor with a big beard could actually produce a lolita voice.
He even closed his eyes and felt it.
If the image of the other party is completely abandoned, this kind of voice is completely made by a little girl.
Even the childishness of the little girl can be perfectly interpreted.
In addition, he also has that particularly powerful voice, which makes him sound like a boss at first glance.
But when I opened my eyes, I saw that the dubbing actor was actually a man who looked very scholarly.
In addition, girls can imitate it perfectly with little boys, little girls, and old ladies.
Therefore, Gu Yi would study here every day and do dubbing work at the same time.
After finishing work, I went to the hospital to see my grandma, and then went home to start sorting out "Journey to the West".
"Xiaoxue, actually I have been thinking about it for a while, that is to see if I can invest in an animation production company. In this way, I can have my own industry, and some of the cartoons and animation images I have created before can also be used. Development, so you don’t have to look for external teams and agencies.”
"I think it's okay. It's still very troublesome to set up a company by ourselves. It would be more convenient to directly invest in it. But I don't know much about this aspect. We need to find a professional to do it, otherwise we will be easily cheated."
"That's right. Then I'll ask Sister Ning later."
"Okay, Sister Ning must know this very well."
Gu Yi thought so in his heart.
Time flies by and it’s mid-March.
That day, when Gu Yi was on his way to the hospital after get off work, he looked at his phone and suddenly saw a hot search saying that interviews for the Civil Service Examination were about to begin.
Out of curiosity, Gu Yi went to the Personnel Examination Network to take a look.
Find the unit that Sun Yan wants to apply for.
Then Gu Yi saw Sun Yan's name at a glance.
And the score is not low.
There are three people in total for this position this year, including two men and one woman.
Thinking of this, Gu Yi called Sun Yan.
The phone rang for a while before anyone answered.
"Hey, Gu Yi, I was going to the toilet just now and didn't pick up my phone. What's wrong? Is something wrong?"
"Brother Sun, you are not honest. You didn't even say anything after the first interview. I only remembered it when I saw the interview information."
"Is it authentic or not? I'm not from Yanjing. Although I passed the written test, the interview is not certain yet. I thought I would tell you after I confirm it."
"There will definitely be no problem in the interview. Brother Sun, you have an advantage over other candidates, so I wish Brother Sun a top spot on the gold list."
"haha, thank you."
"But hasn't the company made things difficult for you during this time?"
Sun Yan sighed: "The company's behavior will definitely not let me go. They call me every day and ask me to pick up business. What did I do before? The company knew about it soon after the interview list was announced. Anyway, I don't know it now. I plan to continue to struggle with them. I will not answer their calls. I will do whatever I want. I will sue if I want. I will send a lawyer's letter if I want to. The more they disgust me now, the more I will disgust them later. "
"What about your company's traffic? I saw him at the Myth Awards this year."
"He, what can he do? I know about their movie. I went to the Mythology Awards and didn't win any awards, just a few indifferent nominations. Two days ago, he was still making fun of me online. , but I ignored him. Now that he is so arrogant, we will know how screwed up this company is in the future." (End of Chapter)
