âMr. Liu, Iâve finished my drink. What about the investment?â
In the KTV, a handsome young man rubbed his hands together, looking expectantly at the pot-bellied man beside him.
The man had two heavily made-up women in his arms, a cigar in his mouth, and his hands were constantly wandering, making the women giggle.
The scene was one of utter debauchery.
âXiao Shen, thereâs no rush for the investment.
To be honest with you, your 5 million is just the cost of one trainload of coal for me; itâs not a big deal.
Iâm happy you drank so heartily, but I have one small request.â
âPlease, tell me, tell me.â
The coal boss leaned close to Shen Langâs ear: âAbout that, is the female lead in your play pretty?â
Shen Lang: ? ? ? ? ? ? ... âCough, cough, Mr. Liu, our play is a documentary.â
The coal boss frowned: âCanât a documentary have a female lead?â
âXiao Shen, Iâm not short on money, so you canât be short on meaning.
I just want to get close to the female artists.
Give me a chance, and Iâll give you a chance.â
âBut, Big Brother, the main character in our play is a dogâŠâ
âI showed you the script before⊠I thought you knew.â
The script? Whatâs that?
The coal boss rubbed his bald head.
Was there such a thing?
âCough, cough, Xiao Shen, be flexible.
People need to learn to be flexible, donât they?
Think of a way.â
... The next morning, Shen Lang woke up with a splitting headache, recalling the events of last night.
Damn it!!!
I finally met a coal boss, thinking I could trick him into giving me some money to start my directing career, but damn it!!!
Lost 5 million!!!!
Transferring one personâs warmth to anotherâs chest,
Letting the mistakes of the past reflect a dream,
Everyone is like this, having enjoyed anxiety,
Only then refusing to be a sacrificial lamb to love.
Memories are moonlight that cannot be grasped, tightening makes it dark,
Waiting for the false silhouette to disappear into the clear sky⊠The phone rang, and Shen Lang answered.
âHow are you, my dear apprentice?â
Shen Langâs mouth curved into a bitter, very depressed smile: âTeacher, it fell through.
That guy was just a horny pervert who insisted I arrange a female actress for a casting couch.
If I had that ability, I wouldnât need him.
I myself stillâŠâ
âStop messing around with me.
Youâre a dishonest kid.
You messed around in school, dating several people at once, which is why I had to arrange for you to graduate early.
Outside, keep yourself in check.
Reputation is very important in this industry, especially when you are nothing and have nothing.
âI pulled some strings and arranged a job for you.
Go to the âPainted Skinâ crew in Hengdian as a nominal screenwriter, accumulate some connections, and be more observant.â
âOh my, mentor, you still have this kind of power?
Thank you, I was just at my witâs end.â
âYou canât imagine your masterâs power.
No matter what, Iâm an associate dean and have been teaching for so many years.
I canât say my students are everywhere, but they are spread across the country, and Beidian is the cradle of performing artists.
The connections are beyond your imagination.â
âTsk, youâre showing off now.â
âYouâre the one who worries me the most.
Work hard.
Youâre my favorite student, and the one I admire most.
Go for it.â
âOkay, mentor, I will definitely make something of myself for you.â
After hanging up the phone, Shen Lang felt, how to put it, touchedâŠ
