In order to be stolen by pirates, Xie Lansheng began to implement a big plan.

With a wave of Xie Lansheng's hand, Yu Qianzi, Hua Guoguang, Jia Ting, Cen Chen, Xiaohong Xiaolu and others were divided into several groups to go on "business trips" to various places.In a team of two, I and Xin Ye stayed in Beijing, Hua Guoguang Jia Ting went to Shanghai, Yu Qianzi Cen Chen went to Guangzhou, and Little Red and Little Green went to Chengdu.

The content of everyone's work is "inquire about the largest disc rental company and the largest VCD dealer, go in one by one according to the list, pretend to be movie lovers, and call 'Xie Lansheng' by name." The two main creators in each group pretended not to know each other. Separately, one of them asked three companies of ABC in the morning and three companies of DEF in the afternoon, and the other asked DEF in the morning and asked ABC in the afternoon, so as to ensure that the big disc rental companies and big VCD vendors in the four big cities were asked twice in one day "Is there any?" Xie Lansheng's film".

Xie Lansheng's command also said, "After asking about a city in one day, I rushed to the surrounding cities overnight, and then asked. Xin Ye and I will go to Tianjin, Hua Guoguang Jia Ting will go to Nanjing, and Yu Qianzi Cen Chen will go to Shenzhen. Little Red and Little Green Go to Chongqing. Afterwards, everyone exchanged cities, following the wheel, Xin Ye and I went to Shanghai, Hua Guoguang Jia Ting went to Guangzhou, Yu Qianzi Cen Chen went to Chengdu, and Little Red and Little Green went back to Beijing."

Regarding these arrangements, he explained, "Let's all work harder, work during the day, change places at night, and make a short trip one day and a long one. The last eight times, this frequency should be enough. We don't have any way to know VCD pirates, but these bosses must be very familiar with pirates, and they will let them know that "many people are asking Xie Lansheng" and give feedback to consumers. demand, let the pirates consider it." Xie Lansheng's idea stunned everyone.

After dispatching the main creators, Xie Lansheng also asked his friends in big cities to help him, and went to the disc rental agency to ask "Xie Lansheng", "Growing Roots" and other works.He is very popular, and his friends have already spread all over the world. One of his undergraduate roommates is now working in Emei Film Studio, the other has returned to Beijing to make TV dramas because of the lack of film, and there is another... They can all help and ask questions together, and so do the classmates in middle school Same, even several colleagues from Xie Lansheng's Xiaoxiang factory agreed to be dispatched.Xie Lansheng also invited a few brothers and sisters to go out to ask, some of them were in Shenyang, and some were in Wuhan, but they were not expected to be known by the elders immediately, and Xie Lansheng was once again said to be "not doing business properly" and "sneaking".

Xie Lansheng thought, if they ask this question, the pirated version will be pirated... right?

After all, the illusion that customers like Xie Lansheng can be created.Pirates will not turn a blind eye to consumers' demands.

At the same time, according to Xie Lansheng's observation, "boss recommendation" is very important.As long as the bosses of the disc club put a stack of VCDs on the table and recommend something "cool, cool and stupid" at the top of their voices, those customers who rent discs will basically try it.Xie Lansheng thought, in this way, the bosses of the big rental disc agency think they are very popular, so they will naturally introduce and recommend them to the guests.

There will be more people watching him.

Even if it's only for a week.

Xie Lansheng has long discovered that people who really like movies rent discs every week.Well, as long as my movie can be watched by these people, it will be considered a success.

His blood boiled again.

In the past, when he was told by customers that he could not see clearly in the coffee shop, when he erected the white cloth by himself, and when he jumped up and down to cover the window, he had imagined countless times that one day, his audience could watch the big screen in the dark cinema, See best results.His highest hope seems a bit unrealistic, but Xie Lansheng thought that it would be good for everyone to watch "Rooting" on their own TV sets.

…………

According to the plan, Xie Lansheng took the Best Actor of Xin to do activities in Beijing for a day, and then in Tianjin for a day, and then took a direct flight to Shanghai to be the "second best".

He inquired about where he could get VCDs early in the morning, and arranged his own route with Xin Yingdi, temporarily separated, went to three disc rental agencies in the morning, and went down to three overpasses, one at Shanghai Railway Station and one at the Bund , one on Nanjing Road.There is also a newly established technology city in Shanghai that sells computers, and some people sell VCDs in it. Xie Lansheng took advantage of noon to go shopping there as well.

Everywhere he went, he would go up and ask people "Xie Lansheng", while the bosses would always shake their heads blankly.At this time, Xie Lansheng actually felt very uncomfortable, but he would still pretend to be a customer and ask the other party in surprise: "What? Doesn't Xie Lansheng have any? He just won the Golden Bear Award! We are the third winner in China. The top three directors in Europe! One of the first two is Li Xian, the other is... Moreover, Xie Lansheng's film "Consummation" was the opening film of the film festival, but it won the grand prize at the end, breaking the practice of "not to catch the bear". It must be very good-looking. It is said that the European media and Hong Kong media all said that his film is very good-looking!"

After finishing speaking, Xie Lansheng would even take out very few newspaper clippings that reported on him, ran them in front of the boss, and said, "Look, it's all published in the newspapers! Well, "Berlin Film Festival closes today, Xie Lansheng won the best film." He deliberately said it loudly so that other customers in the store could hear the news. He thought that if other people were interested, they might go to other stores to "help" him and ask Xie Lansheng together.

And every time, the boss will read the newspaper clippings carefully, and some will write down their names on the backing board.One of them read while writing: "Xie Lansheng..."Growing Roots"..."Beautiful Sea"..."

At the end of this whole process, Xie Lansheng will be disappointed: "Is there no VCD yet? I read other newspapers that Xie Lansheng's previous films such as "Growing Roots" and "Beautiful Sea" have been released on VCDs in Japan. It’s the same in the United States. Can’t our country watch it?”

Xie Lansheng was talking nonsense, because the newspaper didn't say anything at all.But Xie Lansheng still felt that he should give all the information to let the pirates know that they could steal from the Japanese market.

…………

It was already six o'clock after the question.

Xie Lansheng and Xin Ye met and had a meal together.

During the meal, Xie Lansheng said with a smile to Xin Ye: "My grandfather is from Shanghai, but he came to Beijing at the age of 18 to go to school. However, he has always disliked Beijing and liked Shanghai. That year...it was like 56 years? Delicious Zhai came to Beijing, and it was the first state-run restaurant. My grandfather and my grandmother ran to eat, and shouted in Shanghai dialect in the hall of Meimeizhai after eating, 'This is not Shanghai cuisine!' This is not Shanghai Vegetables!' My mother hastened to drag him away." Xinye smiled, thinking that it was a good sign that he had learned about Xie Lansheng's family, which meant that the other party had already regarded him as the closest person.The atmosphere between the two is warm.

After eating, Xie Lansheng saw a pirated peddler on the overpass.

Naturally, he would not let go of the VCD peddler who was on his lips, so he hurriedly dragged Xin Ye over.

In front of the peddler, Xie Lansheng began to perform again: "Well, may I ask, is there any Xie Lansheng film?"

Vendor: "Huh???"

Xie Lansheng was inexplicably surprised: "Don't you even have Xie Lansheng? He just won the Golden Bear Award! We are the third director in China to win the top three in Europe!"

Xinye: "..."

The Best Actor of Shen University once again felt that Xie Lansheng could act much better than him.

And when Xie Lansheng took out the newspaper clipping and said earnestly to the peddler, "...but he won the big prize in the end, breaking the practice of 'not catching the bear'. The European media and Hong Kong media all said that his film is very good-looking", Xinye has already Completely convinced, and reconfirmed that Xie Lansheng should be the actor.

Like other vendors, the other party also paid attention to "Xie Lansheng" after reading it.

The small VCD vendor knew that he definitely didn’t have Xie Lansheng’s, but he didn’t want to keep the customers in front of him at all, so he tried to sell the ready-made VCD in his hand and asked, “Apart from that Xie Lansheng’s, do you have anything else you want to watch? Not watching American blockbusters or watching Japanese... eh?"

Xie Lansheng: "???"

What is "um"?

Xie Lansheng was a little confused, and asked the peddler curiously: "What is Japan? Literary films?"

"Hehe, literature and art, of course literature and art." The peddler said, pulling out a VCD from the box, "Look at this, Iijima x's! Absolutely wonderful, absolutely beautiful!"

Being recommended by a small vendor like this, Xie Lansheng became even more curious.He hadn't heard of the Iijima that the other party said, and suddenly suspected that he didn't know enough about movies now, so he reached out to take it, and lowered his eyes to watch it seriously.

He didn't understand it at first, but he took a second look carefully, and then said: "...!!!"

This, this is what it is!

How...how can...? ? ?

Both sides of his cheeks were flushed, and he smashed the VCD on the cardboard box with a "bang", like holding a hot potato, and his whole body was uncomfortable.After throwing away, he held back, looked at the peddler, but still couldn't say a word, so he pulled Xinye, said "Let's go", turned around, lowered his eyes, and hurriedly left the place.

Xinye stepped on his heels, walked on the outside of Xie Lansheng, and then asked casually, "What's wrong? What did you see?"

Xie Lansheng hadn't recovered from the shock just now, he frowned, shook his head, bit his lip, and said, "The Japanese are too...too that!"

"Oh?"

Xie Lansheng said in a low voice again: "It's just the man's thing... how can I lick it? It's too dirty."

At the end, as if he couldn't bear it again, he said, "How could they think of doing such a thing?"

Xie Lansheng has never seen those things shot in Japan. In the second half of 1996, Wan Yan's VCDs entered thousands of households. As soon as Xie Lansheng bought the VCDs back, he began to think about piracy. American blockbusters don’t have much time to watch.Before that, men would go to the dim video room to watch movies, Xie Lansheng was too embarrassed to be with a group of people..., so he never went into a video room with that kind of movie, only went to serious places to watch "The True Colors of Heroes" "," Across the World" and so on.Other than that, they could only secretly read popular underground novels, and the notebooks given to Xie Lansheng by their friends were all fine.Therefore, he was stunned when he saw the intuitive picture like this for the first time.

Lan Sheng is not ignorant.When he was a sophomore in college, he understood what is going on between men and women... and he also felt it when he read the book. He even knew very well about some things between men and men, which he guessed from movies and his own body structure, but...

Hearing Xie Lansheng's evaluation, Xinye glanced at Lansheng lightly and laughed softly.

…………

After the episode passed, Xie Lansheng and Xin Ye took the train to the capital of Jiangsu Province. They planned to go out after a night of sleep and continue to ask "Xie Lansheng", so that the bosses could feedback the market demand to the pirates, and asked the pirates to produce "Rooting" and other VCDs.

Xinye is a very expensive person, and he must be in a five-star hotel, so he took Lansheng to check in at the earliest "Hilton" in Nanjing.

The design of the room was very nice, and Xie Lansheng liked it quite a bit, but he had lived in an expensive one with Xinye when he was in Turin before, so he didn't make a fuss, and went to take a shower directly.

When he came out again, Xie Lansheng prepared what he would say tomorrow.Xie Lansheng felt that every time he moved to a new city, he would have to change a new set of words. Otherwise, if all disc club bosses gave the same words, then the pirates who produced VCDs might be suspicious, because it looked like it was true. very strange.It doesn't matter if you are in the same city, because the pirate business will think that the same customer is asking everywhere.Xie Lansheng also said the same to other main creators, telling everyone not to be lazy, and to change the language when changing cities. Xiaohong and Xiaolu wailed after hearing this request.

In fact, Xie Lansheng also felt that he was good at torturing everyone, but he couldn't help it.He also thought about other means, such as getting to know a VCD pirate, giving him his copy, letting him produce and ship it, and promising that if he loses money, he is willing to make up the shortfall, but he died within three days of this plan. , because the bosses of Disc Club were tight-lipped about the channel and did not want others to share a piece of the pie, Xie Lansheng inquired for a long time but found nothing, so he had to find another way out.

At 11:[-], the film king of Xinda also took a shower in the bathroom, put on a bathrobe, wiped his hair, went back to his bed and sat down, and threw the towel aside.

He looks clean, and occasionally, unwiped water drops will flow down his neck, slide over the collarbone, slide over...and sink into the edge of the bathrobe.Xin Ye held the cuff of his bathrobe, showing a section of his forearm, strong and strong, Xie Lansheng was quite moved.

They talked for a while, and watched TV for a while, Xinye changed into normal pajamas, Lan Sheng put on a big white vest, then, Xinye turned on the bedside lamp, said goodbye, and planned to go to sleep.

He had already kissed after entering the room, and he didn't want to kiss the other party again.He had to get up early tomorrow, and he was worried that Xie Lansheng would not be able to sleep well if he felt it.

Unexpectedly, Xie Lansheng did, but he didn't change his mind.

Just fell asleep for 2 minutes, Xinye heard a rustling sound, and then the quilt was lifted, and a body got in.

Xinye hugged him sideways, smiled, and asked, "What are you doing?"

Xie Lansheng put Xinye's arm under his neck, arched his body, and went straight into Xinye's arms, hooked Xinye's shoulder with his backhand, and rubbed his head with the other's neck, saying: "If you want to do this again Take a kiss." Before going to sleep, in the bed, a lingering kiss, sweet and beautiful.In that way, his dreams at night will be fragrant.

Xinye smiled.

He felt that Xie Lansheng's behavior after falling in love was really the same as he had imagined before: clingy and provocative.

The two looked at each other in the moonlight, and there was water in their eyes.But soon, Xinye found that Xie Lansheng's big white vest stretched his hips.

Both cuffs of a big white vest like this are very big. At this time, because he is lying on his side, the hole on one side hangs down, and Xin Ye can directly see Lan Sheng's side...

The hotel curtains are not very thick, and the moonlight shines in softly.

beautiful and alluring.

Xinye's throat rolled up and down.

Xie Lansheng followed the other person's gaze and realized that he was gone.However, I don't know what happened, he really just wanted to kiss Xin Ye, but when Xin Ye's throat rolled, Xie Lansheng felt something wrong.He hastily pulled his big white vest to hide everything.

Then their lips overlapped.But the atmosphere had already warmed up, the two of them kissed and kissed, and started to kiss again, the same as they did before the celebration banquet at the Busan restaurant.

Ten minutes later, feeling Xie Lansheng's impatience, Xin Ye suddenly turned over and pushed Xie Lansheng under him, while she supported him with both hands above him, watching with downcast eyes.

Xie Lansheng arched again and asked, "Xin Ye?"

Xinye didn't speak, but just stared at her with gentle and tender eyes.

A few seconds later, his eyes were still unblinking, but his upper body was slowly lowered. In the end, his black hair was not at the edge of the quilt.

Xie Lansheng also just saw that Xinye's black hair was gradually being hidden, and felt a little puzzled in his heart, and asked, "...Xinye?"

But then, he took a deep breath! !

Like fish on a chopping board, he bent backwards and bounced violently on the big hotel bed two or three times!

"Xinye! Xinye!" Xie Lansheng wanted to kick his legs wildly, but was held down by the other party, so he could only move slightly, and at the same time, his hands tightly grasped the white sheet under him, twisting the sheet out of the bag Come.

He stared at the ceiling, touched the other's head through the quilt, wanted to push Xinye away, but didn't want to, hesitated, only felt that his blood was boiling, sparks were flying all over his limbs, as if his body was about to explode.

After a while, he couldn't struggle anymore, even his toes were tense, his heart was raised to the mouth of his throat, beating thumpingly, and his breathing became difficult.

I don't know how long it took, it seemed very long, but at the same time it seemed very short, Xie Lansheng yelled hoarsely, and at the same time his body was extremely tense, like a taut bow on the white bed sheet.

When everything was over, his body suddenly relaxed, as if he had lost his soul, and his mind went blank.

Xinye actually answered his two questions with practical actions: "How can a man's thing be licked?" "How could they think of doing such a thing?"

The author has something to say: Let the renting agency give feedback, Lan Sheng is still a little clever ghost.

But the clever ghost was "beep--".
