Li Tang woke up in a daze. The room was dark, and he knew that he had stopped drinking. The three of them drank four bottles of liquor in total. It might be okay if they drank slowly, but the key was drinking too fast. At this moment, he still felt like his head was buzzing and his mouth was extremely dry.
He fumbled to turn on the light, not wanting to knock over the alarm clock on the bedside table.
"Snapped!"
The bedside light came on, and my ex-girlfriend sleeping next to me was woken up.
"What do you want to do?"
The ex-girlfriend rubbed her groggy eyes and sat up from the bed.
"I want to drink water."
Li Tang struggled to get up.
"Don't move, I'll pour it."
The ex-girlfriend got up, pulled on her slippers, went outside, poured a glass of water, and came in.
"Thanks!"
Li Tang leaned against the bed and quickly took a sip. The water was warm and sweet, with honey added to it.
He drank more than half the glass in one go and felt much better.
He glanced at his ex-girlfriend, who was also leaning on the bedside, and apologized: "I'm sorry, I woke you up."
"It's okay, it's almost dawn anyway."
After saying that, his ex-girlfriend hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are you really with Bingbing?"
"Uh...well, together."
The ex-girlfriend smiled mockingly to herself: "Actually, I should have thought of it a long time ago. Who from a grown-up girl's family would sleep in a man's house for no reason."
Li Tang hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, we really didn't have it before. We just got together a month ago..."
"Oh, I remembered, you introduced the drama she is filming now, right?"
"It just happened that I..."
Before he could finish speaking, his ex-girlfriend turned around and looked at him with a weird smile.
If we weren't so familiar with each other and knew exactly how many hairs there were on his body, maybe Li Tang would be really frightened.
"You don't need to tell me this. In fact, the last time I saw Bingbing, she told me that you helped her win this role. The little girl is very grateful to you. Oh, by the way, after you drank too much last night , Xiuxiu also talked to me a lot, she still hopes that we can get back together, do you think it is possible?"
"..."
Maybe he drank too much. Li Tang felt that his brain was not strong enough, so he looked at his ex-girlfriend blankly.
The ex-girlfriend smiled and said: "You don't need to answer. In fact, I think it's good that we are like this now. At least we still miss each other in our hearts. You are right about one thing, we are relatives now. Even if we are not together After all, relatives are still the closest people."
Hearing this, Li Tang couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. To be honest, what he was most worried about before was that his ex-girlfriend would mess around and be unrelenting.
Of course, he could also just pat his ass and leave, ignore her, and never have any contact with her again.
But again, people have feelings, and years of feelings have long linked the two of them tightly together, that is, they are relatives. You can't hurt your loved ones.
Li Tang felt that his ex-girlfriend was particularly considerate today, but it seemed inappropriate to always talk to her alone. Just when he wanted to express his feelings, which is called "Pipi sentiment" in Shanghainese, he heard his ex-girlfriend change the subject. : "There's something I've always wanted to tell you..."
Hearing her hesitant expression, Li Tang hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"
The ex-girlfriend hesitated for a moment and said: "It's the same thing as last time. Sister Hua wanted me to bring you a message and asked if you would like to come to our company. Originally I didn't want to tell you this, but now the situation has changed. We The company is discussing cooperation with Huayi Brothers. If nothing unexpected happens, the two companies will reach a cooperation, that is, our company will be integrated into Huayi Brothers as a whole and become a brokerage department under their company. In this case, the future resources will be especially There must be a lot more film resources. I’m not trying to advise you, the current situation is like this, I think it’s a good opportunity, you should think about it yourself.”
Huayi Brothers, Li Tang certainly knows, is currently a well-known film and television company in China. Their biggest advantage is that they are bound to director Feng Xiaogang. Since 1997, a Lunar New Year comedy has been released every year, and it has topped the domestic box office list almost every year. "A Sigh", which was just released not long ago, was also produced by their company.
In the past, Li Tang would have refused without hesitation, but the situation is different now. It's not that his ex-girlfriend said there would be more opportunities by working with Huayi, but that his manager Nai An is pregnant.
She was pregnant for ten months and then breastfeeding. Even Nai'an herself said that in the future, she would definitely focus more on work and family. Li Tang therefore had to consider his own career.
A capable agent is very helpful to an actor. Whether an actor is popular or not depends directly on the agent's ability.
At this time, the ex-girlfriend suggested that Sister Hua still wanted to sign her, so it was not impossible to consider this matter.
Seeing Li Tang's contemplative look, his ex-girlfriend added: "How about you think about it carefully? If you really have this intention, my suggestion is that you simply wait until the cooperation between our company and Huayi Brothers is officially finalized. , and then consider signing the contract, which is safer."
Li Tang nodded and agreed: "Yes, let's talk about it when the time comes."
The two sat on the bed and chatted for a long time. At this time, they looked through the gauze curtains and saw that the sky was starting to get dark. The ex-girlfriend yawned and said, "Anyway, I've said everything that should be said and shouldn't be said. I'll just sleep a little longer."
Watching his ex-girlfriend get into bed, Li Tang was in good spirits. It seemed a little early to go out for a morning jog, otherwise he would do it first...
…
At the back door of the Beijing Normal University Auditorium, Senior Lu, who had been waiting eagerly, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Li Tang finally arriving. However, he still couldn't help complaining: "Li Tang, didn't you arrive yesterday? Why didn't you arrive now?" come over?"
The taxi couldn't drive into the campus, so Li Tang trotted over. He was a little weak, sweating on his forehead, and breathed heavily: "I'm sorry, Brother Lu, yesterday a friend got drunk and stopped drinking."
He originally wanted to kill some time in the morning, but he didn't expect it to get out of hand. After several rounds of continuous firing, I almost ran out of ammunition and food. I slept until the afternoon. If it weren't for Senior Lu's life-threatening series of calls, I almost forgot that there was anything else to do today.
"Okay, hurry in, the movie is almost over."
A total of 18 films have been shortlisted for this year's College Student Film Festival, which will be screened 105 times at 27 universities in Beijing. Today is the last screening of "A Very Summer" at the main venue of Beijing Normal University.
After the film is screened, there will be face-to-face communication between the film's main creative staff and college students. They will generally talk about the film creation process and answer some questions from the college students present.
"A Very Summer" is a film with a good reputation at this film festival, and many reporters came to the scene today. Originally, Li Tang did not need to participate, but Senior Lu believed that although Li Tang was still ahead in the number of votes, for the sake of safety, he was allowed to attend the exchange meeting to canvass votes. After all, there was still almost one day left before the voting deadline.
Li Tang followed Senior Lu to the backstage. Ma Xiaoqin had already arrived, as well as the host arranged by the organizer, and two young critics who were said to be young critics. Li Tang didn't know any of them. Under the introduction of Senior Lu, he followed them one by one. Shake hands and say hello.
One of the young critics named Tan Fei, who looked young but rather greasy, came closer and said, "Teacher Li, I heard that you are filming "The Swordsman"?"
"Yeah, you didn't come here without asking for leave." Li Tang said with a smile.
Li Tang did not dare to offend these so-called critics easily. His experience in his previous life told him that such so-called critics are good at talking and are often good at pacing. Some of them are well-known people. More than ten years later, they are all on the Internet. The so-called big V.
It is the same at all times and in all countries.
So I'm very polite.
Tan Fei said mysteriously: "I heard that Shao Bin, who was originally scheduled to play Linghu Chong in "The Swordsman", was kicked out by the crew. Now the media is digging into this matter. A reporter will definitely ask you this question soon. Please pay attention. point."
"Hey, Teacher Tan, thank you! If you didn't remind me, I really wouldn't know." Li Tang said hurriedly.
He was really not being polite. If a reporter asked him this question later, it would be difficult for him to answer. Perhaps he could only use diplomatic language, such as "Sorry, this is the "Extraordinary Summer" exchange meeting. It is not convenient to answer and Issues that have nothing to do with the movie." That sort of thing.
He was also wondering whether he should have a phone call with Zhang Dabeard to unify his words.
In fact, he didn't notice that what he said just now was revealed.
Just as he was thinking about it, Tan Fei came closer and said, "Teacher Li, some people say that Shao Bin acted like a big star and offended everyone on the crew. Is it true?"
"Well……"
Li Tang looked down at the big greasy face and the small eyes shining with gossip, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Second update, the community informed that there will be a power outage for two hours at 10 o'clock, so just to be on the safe side, let's post this. In addition, I have a headache today and am not in good condition. The quality may not be ideal. I hope you can forgive me!
