Golden Boy

Chapter 16

Su Pei has been in contact with new jobs recently, but after screening out some apparently unreliable grassroots projects, he actually doesn't have many choices.

In the end, he accepted the script of an 80s entrepreneurial drama.The film crew's asking price is actually not high, but the advantage is that the production company is in Beijing, and the shooting location is fixed. It is planned to shoot at a film and television base in the suburbs of Beijing.In this way, Su Pei doesn't have to travel most of the time, and it is convenient to go to the crew during filming.

After so many things recently, Su Pei thought it would be better to be closer to home.

At the beginning of the new year, the first big gift he received was a diagnosis of heart disease.

Su Pei couldn't help thinking whether his life was too dramatic.

Dr. Zeng gave him detailed medical advice: quit smoking, quit drinking, eat a balanced diet, work and rest regularly, relax, don't be nervous, don't have pressure, keep relaxed and happy.

Su Pei really wanted to complain, it's rare for a person who is relaxed and happy to have a heart attack.

Excluding subjective emotions, he can only try his best to balance his life.

On the day of the diagnosis, on the way home from the hospital, Su Pei thought about a problem all the way.Where could things go from bad to worse?If he is gone, how will Cookie go to school?Can Shen Lan be responsible?Let Little Cookie's grandparents pay for her living expenses and tuition?It is one thing to take the child to play for a few days, but it is another thing to take care of her life and study until she becomes an adult.

What about his mother?He was an only son and his father had died.Although my mother has a pension to maintain her life, how does she face this kind of loneliness and sadness?She is now in her 50s and she doesn't need anyone to take care of her. What will happen when she is in her 70s or 80s?

Thinking of this horror, Su Pei was distracted for a moment, and almost rear-ended at the red light. He braked suddenly and barely stopped, and his heart beat violently again.

He calmed down, thinking that he still had a few friends with reliable character, people who could be trusted.But no one can take care of his family instead of him.Yao Zhicheng is a good old man, and he will definitely be very sad in front of his tombstone.As for He Yiming, He Yiming definitely wouldn't go to see him, maybe he wouldn't even go to his funeral, it wasn't that he wasn't sad, he was just angry.

Su Pei stopped thinking too much - thinking too much would only increase the pressure.Fortunately, medicine is advanced now. Dr. Zeng said that he does not need surgery, but he will take medicine first and observe regularly.

He didn't tell Cookie about being sick.The divorced family had already made her feel very insecure, and he couldn't let it scare the children anymore.On his mother's side, he planned to find a suitable time to speak out slowly.

So he only told Little Cookie that he will work locally starting this year and will often stay with her at home.

Little Cookie is very happy, but she doesn't know the secret behind this happiness.

Not long after New Year's Day, He Yiming contacted Su Pei several times.However, He Yiming is also very busy at the end of the year, and has no time to rest until the end of the Chinese New Year.

Su Pei couldn't help being embarrassed when he thought of Shen Lan making a big fuss about He Yiming's villa, he thought it's better not to disturb He Yiming for the time being.

"You won't stop dating me because of Shen Lan, right?" He Yiming's voice sounded a little angry.It seems that he is not the leader of nearly [-] employees, but an ordinary college student.

Su Pei smiled and said, "How is it possible. It's just that you have been so busy. And I recently received a new script."

He Yiming immediately asked when he heard the word script, "What about the novel? Can I still read it during the school celebration?"

Su Pei assured him: "I've been writing recently, and I'll definitely show it to you when the school celebrates."

He Yiming didn't say anything, he just muttered in a low voice: "Su Pei, don't trust those people who push you to write a script. Unless they give you the full authority of a script. Otherwise, don't trust those people, they will just put you His works have changed beyond recognition.”

Su Pei didn't know this.He figured it out when he started working as a screenwriter.

What the screenwriter wants to implement is not his own will.He has to learn to integrate the ideas of many people, even the ideas of too many people, even if these people are completely different and contradict each other.

This is what he thinks.Only by thinking about this experience every time can he give up fighting with the true thoughts deep in his heart, write scripts fluently, and live a good life.

"Thank you." He said to He Yiming.

Maybe his novels are out of date, but He Yiming always urges him like this, letting him know that there is at least one reader in this world who will always remember his talent.

He Yiming asked again: "Thank me for what. You're welcome. You haven't had a fever since you went back, have you?"

He still remembered how ugly Su Pei's face was that day.

Su Pei paused and said, "Okay, it's all right."

Su Pei has only started writing a new script here, and the previous "Rongcheng Confidential" has been completed.Both the director and the lead actor of the film crew posted a message on Weibo to celebrate the finale, and fans forwarded it one after another, expressing condolences to the male lead, "Brother, you have worked hard!"

No one @一下Su Pei on Weibo.Su Pei didn't know that "Rongcheng Confidential" had finished until he saw the popular news.He wasn't surprised at all—after all, he was forced to leave the film crew, and the final payment had to be settled later, and he had to tear himself apart with the producer.

Now that the crew wants to be enthusiastic about him, he feels that there is a ghost.

Su Pei told the crew of "Rongcheng Confidential" that the filming was over, and his salary had already arrived, so he wouldn't be genuinely worried about this drama.

He was just a little curious about how the screenwriter who took over his job wrote the story afterwards.Because during filming, many places were changed while filming, so he could only modify and adjust the plot at any time, leaving a few suspense pits, thinking about filling them in later.He discussed the big frame with the director, but he didn't tell anyone about many details.

Before he could fill in the hole, there was a disturbance in the crew.He left the crew without giving an explanation, and the screenwriter who took over didn't come to ask him anyway.

Su Pei now clicks on the news about the finale of "Rongcheng Confidential", and can only see the photos of the male and female protagonists, and all kinds of gossip about the supporting roles.No one mentioned the script.

Fang Ziling's photo looks a bit dull.I don't know if it was affected by the scandal.

After the scandal between her and Boss Bai was exposed, she has been infamous as a "little three".No matter how much her fans protect her, it's useless. When it comes to Fang Ziling, those who don't like her just need to throw out the word "Little San".

To make matters worse, Boss Bai never responded, nor did he appear publicly with Fang Ziling after that, as if he was trying his best to distance himself from the relationship.Many people said that Fang Ziling failed to force her into the palace, and now Boss Bai is treating her coldly.

People in the industry broke the news, saying that Fang Ziling was holding her breath, hoping that "Rongcheng Confidential" would be aired, and the ratings would be amazing, which would bring her back.

Su Pei wasn't interested in whether Fang Ziling could succeed in the end, he was just curious about the final product of the show.

Shortly after, Little Cookie went on winter vacation.

She went to live with her grandparents for a few days.A few days later, Shen Lan sent her back.

This was the first time the two of them met face to face after they met at He Yiming's place.Su Pei didn't expect Shen Lan to come upstairs - she usually leaves after delivering the cookies downstairs.

She clearly has something to say.

"It's about Little Cookie's Chinese New Year." Shen Lan's mood is relatively stable today, and her attitude is not bad.

Su Pei immediately said, "No."

He turned around and ordered Cookie: "Go into the room."

Little Cookie protested: "Why can't I listen to my business!"

Shen Lan said: "My parents asked Little Cookie to celebrate the New Year with us. My parents wanted to travel for the New Year, and they said that the whole family should go and bring Little Cookie with them. Anyway, you will only be at home during the New Year, and Little Cookie will accompany you. It's not interesting either."

Little Cookie quickly said, "No! I'm happy to be with Dad."

Shen Lan immediately asked her daughter: "Then do you want to go to the island?"

Su Pei said, "Don't seduce her."

He knew that Cookie was in a dilemma.But people always have selfishness.He also has selfish motives.

He wanted to say that his mother spends much more time taking care of Little Cookie throughout the year than Shen Lan's parents, so why come to grab it when the Chinese New Year is so important.However, these reasons are unclear.

He could only say: "This year, Little Cookie will go home with me for the New Year."

Shen Lan didn't understand for a moment: "Go home?"

Su Pei said: "I didn't go back last year, this year I'm going to bring Little Cookie to see the old man of the Wen family."

He was referring to his mother's parents, Cookie's great-grandfathers, who were approaching 90.Once this seniority was suppressed, Shen Lan couldn't say anything disrespectful.

She could only leave angrily.

Now that Su Pei said so, the matter can only be settled like this.In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve, and he returned to Wen's house with his mother Wen Xinlan, who brought Little Cookie.
