Although He Tianran had previously reminded Wenliang that the company was different and that some things were not suitable to be discussed in public, now, the girls from "Future Production" did not regard Wenliang as an outsider, and asked A Liu "Heart" one by one. "Nakano" script progress.
The people at the table drank some wine and were in high spirits. It was a happy event to get Penguin's investment. He Tianran didn't hide it at all. After announcing the matter in public, everyone was pleasantly surprised. An investment of this scale was also a surprise. This means that if the company completes the filming of "Into the Wild" and can land it smoothly, "Future Production" will reach a new level and officially become a production company with large-scale film and television drama operation cases and a complete process from the early stage to the late stage. , instead of being jokingly called "Director He Tianran's Film and Television Studio" as it is now.
It can be expected that the "future production" by then will not be able to support the scale of the twenty or so people now. Let's not talk about whether these old employees will have greater room for improvement by then. To say the worst, this If you follow a project of this scale, even if you want to switch jobs to other companies in the future, you will have a valuable addition to your resume. There will be no barriers to finding a job in the film and television industry in the future.
"Everyone..."
Seeing that the atmosphere had reached this point, He Tianran knocked on the table with a glass full of wine. The noise caused everyone's attention to focus on him. He raised his glass and said boldly:
"Thank you all for your hard work in the first half of the year. We have been busy for so long on the 80 films of Surf Line. Now that we have finished filming, we don't have time to thank you all. There are not many people today. If we have the opportunity, the whole company will have another meal. Bonus everyone You can rest assured, and there is still team building for this year. If the "Into the Wild" project goes well, we can go out for fun again before the official start of filming. It may not be possible if it is far away, but what about Seoul, Tokyo, and Pattaya? , you can choose whatever you want, you don’t have to go if you don’t want to, I’ll take half a month’s paid leave, I don’t force it.”
The benefits of film and television companies are generally very good, and compared to traditional industries, people in this industry are more playful when they get together. After He Tianran said these words, the entire rooftop was boiling.
He Tianran stood up and said cheerfully:
"Thanks to everyone's hard work, the company is what it is today. I hope you can help us with the upcoming work in the second half of the year. Finally, I respect everyone and our MADE IN FUTURE."
Everyone raised their wine glasses and collided with them in mid-air.
"MADE IN FUTURE!"
"MADE IN FUTURE...!"
"The boss is mighty! Long live MADE IN FUTURE!"
For a time, the small rooftop was filled with joy and cheers resounded.
Although Wen Liang was an outsider, she was infected by the emotions at the scene and drank some wine. People around her politely said that she must cooperate with Teacher Wen Liang in the future. She also nodded and said that if she really had the opportunity, she would definitely seize it. But it’s this kind of thing. Someone else’s company is having a nice dinner together, and the atmosphere is harmonious. If you insist on this, it will inevitably arouse other people’s associations.
In fact, the girl does not have the airs of a popular artist. If an actor wants to star in a drama, and there is financial support like Gu Qiaoman, there are only a handful of people who can directly join the cast. Most of them rely on the actors themselves to win the opportunity.
An occasion like now is a good time to grab an opportunity.
If it were another person, Wen Liang would definitely not hesitate, pick up the wine glass and recommend himself, saying:
"Director, I am also an actor. Do you think there are any opportunities for us to collaborate?"
As an actor, Wen Liang still has some courage.
But the person in front of her happened to be He Tianran, and she couldn't say this for a while.
She has troubled others a lot today. If she bothers others more, she will always feel that she is trying too hard. She is cool and carefree, but it does not mean that she likes others to always accommodate her, because once the other party refuses, it will be more embarrassing than usual. Especially in front of He Tianran, she somehow didn't want to leave such an impression on him, let alone give him a chance to reject her.
With drunken eyes, Wen Liang stared at He Tianran, who was surrounded by everyone. He was completely different from the boy who was autistic in high school in his impression, and could not even remember his name when they saw each other again.
What has he experienced over the years to make him what he is now?
Wen Liang felt a little curious.
Maybe he has always had some successful qualities in him, but he just didn't realize it before...
The boy who asked inexplicably whether he looked like an adult was really...
It's getting better and better.
It would have been nice if the two of them had gotten to know each other better when I graduated and just debuted...
In other words, back in high school, I was able to say a few more words to him, and the two of them became friends. It was quite interesting to witness and participate in his changes, wasn't it?
It's a pity that the two of them met after entering the society, and their friendship was half-baked, like half-baked rice. As a result, there are some things that I want to say but can't say. Wen Liang feels... It's a pity.
He Tianran, who was in the crowd, saw Wen Liang looking at him. He raised his glass, and Wen Liang also picked up the wine.
The two looked at each other, smiled, and drank.
…
…
"Where are you going next?"
"Cross the bridge, then take Miyang Road. Do you know there is a Yuehui Shopping Mall over there? Just drive in that direction."
"Okay."
When Wen Liang opened her eyes in a daze, her body jolted slightly, she found that she seemed to be sitting in a car. Outside the window, people were watching people rushing through the bustling streets. Two figures appeared dimly in front of her eyes. The man sitting in the passenger seat heard the movement and Turn your head.
"Are you awake?"
Wen Liang was startled at first and leaned back subconsciously. Then as his vision gradually became clearer and he realized that the other person was He Tianran, he lowered his guard.
"Want to vomit? Should I ask the master to drive slower?"
"It's okay, I'm just a little dizzy. I'll be fine after a while."
Hearing the other party's caring words, Wen Liang felt warm in her heart. She moved her body to sit more comfortably and asked:
"How long have I been asleep?"
Seeing that she was fine, He Tianran stopped looking at her and replied:
"You got in the car, told you the name of the place, and then went to sleep. It must have been almost an hour."
"How long does it take to get from your company to my home?"
He Tianran said with a smile: "No, I sent Teacher A Liu and Sister Taozi off first. You both drank too much today, and you are still fine. When I sent Sister Taozi off, she vomited all over the floor and didn't care. I know how you three girls talk so well."
After hearing this, Wen Liang joked: "You are the one, Director He. The girls in your company kept toasting you. I didn't expect you to be so sober."
"Maybe I'm happy. I'm in surprisingly good condition today, but I'm not awake yet. I squinted for a while when I got in the car."
"You still know how to take me home when you're not sober. That's fine~ You're quite a gentleman."
"Then what else can I do? If I don't send you to your home, why don't I send you to my home?"
I don’t know if it was alcohol or the private space in the car, but the conversation between the two became bold without realizing it.
However, this atmosphere did not last long. The acting driver was a young man who probably had not been on the job for a long time. He did not understand the principle that silence is golden. At this time, he said very flatteringly:
"Brother, do you want to change the route?"
"..."
Good guy, one sentence silenced two people who were quite capable of talking.
"Keep going the way you came."
He Tianran replied in a deep voice.
At this time, it is natural to find something to break the embarrassment. The man sitting in the passenger seat raised his head and glanced at the rearview mirror in the car. Wen Liang was looking out the window at the moment. The street lights on the roadside outside the car occasionally flashed by. Clear her slightly red cheeks.
He Tianran thought for a while and said:
"Well, the residence your company has arranged for you is quite close to Gangcheng Middle School."
"That... wasn't arranged by the company, that's my home. I've lived there since high school..."
"Yeah?!"
He Tianran turned his head again and said in disbelief:
"I lived there when I was in high school, in the urban Taoyuan community. My dad rented a house for me."
Wen Liang's eyes lit up, "It's very close to my home. I live on the next street. I can't walk to your house for less than ten minutes, but when I was studying, I never saw you when I came home from school."
"Oh, I still remember very clearly. When I was in school, you were the only art candidate in our class. You always asked for leave to go to training classes, and we didn't see you so many times in one semester. And my sense of existence was so low at that time. , you might not recognize it if you saw it on the street, otherwise you wouldn’t have waited until I was filming to remember that I was a high school classmate.”
He Tianran recalled with a hint of self-mockery, Wen Liang became inexplicably angry as he listened.
"You remember this, why can't you remember what happened during our trip? And when I graduated, I dragged you to my band's disbandment concert!"
"……ah?"
Hearing He Tianran's surprise, Wen Liang knew that the result would be the same this time. She took a deep breath, lowered her eyes, and stopped asking questions, saying slowly:
"Forget it, just forget it. Director He, you helped me so much today. I know you didn't mean it..."
He Tianran remained silent and did not speak.
Until two minutes later, when Wen Liang was gradually giving up bringing up this old incident again, the man suddenly said:
"Wen Liang, if you have time in the future, please tell me more specifically..."
Wen Liang suddenly raised his head and looked at his back.
He turned his head and continued:
"Because... from yesterday to today, I can feel that this matter is very important to you, and whether it is Teacher Cai or Director Yu, what they said yesterday is somewhat inconsistent with my memory. Maybe I am I really forgot. Of course, it’s possible that you remembered it wrong. Anyway, it’s always good to clarify things, right?”
He Tianran was extremely sincere when he said these words, without any prevarication or shirk.
The scenery outside the window was flying by, and the lights flickered on and off the two people's faces. He Tianran's appearance at this moment was so indescribably familiar in Wen Liang's eyes, and the two extra beats of heartbeat for no reason were proof. .
"Have you... always been like this?"
Wen Liang suddenly couldn't help asking this question.
"What?"
He Tianran didn't understand what the other party meant.
sincere? wrong.
Have something to say? Not right either.
He couldn't find a suitable word to describe the familiar feeling He Tianran brought to him at this moment. Fortunately, He Tianran didn't notice anything strange about her. Seeing that the girl didn't speak, he just thought it was because she was embarrassed, so he took the opportunity. asked:
"Hey Wenliang, let me ask you another question. Is today your birthday?"
"..."
Wen Liang, who finally got emotional, rolled her eyes at him:
"Of course not! I lied to you! I thought you knew."
"Wow~Gan..." He Tianran made an exaggerated expression and nodded warmly with his fingers: "I know you, a bitch, don't tell the truth and don't remember anything. I believe you. ~!"
When Wen Liang heard this, she became anxious. She stretched out her hands, shook the shoulders of He Tianran in the front seat, and said repeatedly:
"This is real, the tour is definitely real, the concert is also real, really really really really... you believe me!"
He Tianran was already confused after drinking, but when he was shaken, his brains were almost scattered, and he almost vomited it out. He quickly begged for mercy:
"Don't, don't, don't, don't shake, stop shaking, auntie, stay away from me, or I'll spit on you later!"
Wen Liang suddenly realized that his actions were a bit excessive, and immediately retracted his hands.
He Tianran took a few deep breaths, picked up the mineral water on the cup holder and took a sip before he managed to recover.
He turned his head and glanced at Wen Liang. The girl shrank her head and looked at him, and... stuck out her tongue.
"……Hold."
The man laughed angrily.
He was very sure that if she hadn't been drunk, this girl wouldn't have been able to do such cute and cute actions...
"It's still a long way from your home, so you should sleep a little longer."
He Tianran said angrily.
"Are you annoying me?"
Wen Liang asked deliberately.
"……I don't."
"Then why don't you chat with me?"
"I……"
He Tianran didn't know how to answer the question. After all the fuss just now, the two of them were still talking about it, right?
"Okay, okay, let's talk. You said your home is in Hong Kong City, so you usually live at home, not outside?"
"Yes, I usually go out for half a year when filming. Why don't I live at home when I return to Hong Kong City?"
"That's quite convenient. Have you ever thought about buying an apartment in Hong Kong City?"
"I think so, but the housing prices in Hong Kong City are too expensive. It's not like you don't know who I am, Director He, and it's not necessary for me now. Let's see in a few years."
"That's true, what do your parents do?"
"My father was a veteran and later came to Hong Kong City to open a boxing gym and teach boxing. My mother used to be an actor in a drama troupe, but now she is a housewife."
…
In the car, the two of them just chatted, probably because these topics were too common. Even if Wen Liang wanted to talk, she couldn't hold back the tiredness that slowly came over her. Her answering voice became smaller and smaller... …
"Well, you said your dad taught boxing, so is he very good? Is he really teaching it? I also exercise regularly, and I just want to learn some boxing, Sanda, etc..."
Unlike Wen Liang, He Tianran became more and more excited as he chatted. But when he finished speaking, there was no response from behind. He raised his head and glanced in the rearview mirror. There was a smile on the girl's face and she had fallen asleep...
He Tianran opened the car window a little, and the evening breeze blew by, so he consciously didn't bother him anymore.
Silently all the way, the BMW arrived at its destination.
However, on a deserted road in the middle of the night, a tall man with a height of 1.9 meters, wearing a short-sleeved shirt in the middle of the night, revealing muscular arms, was not standing in the middle of the intersection, talking on the phone. He didn't get through, so he kept wandering in the middle of the road.
The car stopped slowly, honking its horn to disturb people at night, so the driver flashed his lights twice.
The big man didn't move. Instead, he stared at the car for a moment, then walked over and knocked on the driver's window.
"What's wrong? Uncle? Can you give way?"
The driver pressed down the window and said something.
The BMW was originally covered with film and could not see clearly what was going on inside. As soon as the window was rolled down, He Tianran clearly felt the strong man's tiger eyes scanning the front and back of the car, and then rested for a moment on Wen Liang, who was sleeping in the back seat. Finally, his eyes locked on himself.
He Tianran instantly felt a shiver, and the hairs on his back stood up!
"Who are you? I seem to have seen you somewhere."
The strong man's voice was rough, his tone was neither fast nor slow, and he looked directly at He Tianran.
"I... Who do I care about you? You're blocking the road, why don't you just give in?"
As the saying goes, drunkenness makes people cowardly. He Tianran retorted inexplicably, but as soon as he said these words, his heart skipped a beat, and he secretly thought, "Oh no!" A feeling of extreme danger shot straight from the soles of his feet to Tianling Gaier!
The strong man didn't say anything, he just nodded silently, took two steps back, and then walked around from the front of the car to the passenger seat.
"Press the accelerator!"
He Tianran almost shouted, but it was too late.
Before the driver could react, He Tianran heard a loud "clang" in his ears, and the window on his right shattered. He saw an iron fist as big as a casserole directly penetrated the window, and then his five fingers formed into claws. Accurately grab his collar and pull hard!
With a "bang", He Tianran suddenly collided with the car door. His eyes were filled with stars, and he was confused!
"Open the door!"
Outside the car, the strong man spoke concisely and concisely, and spoke loudly.
