Chapter 125 Which One Would You Shoot?

Xu Rui didn't hang around in the studio. Although Yan Ran shouldn't mind, it was a bad influence. After all, other people were already very tired from work, and it would be a sin to make them unable to eat!

After giving the gift to Yan Ran, Xu Rui waited for her to get off work in the office, and checked the notices and endorsement invitations sent to him by Lu Ziliang.

There were no big brands in the endorsement. Lu Ziliang told him not to worry. Many big brands already had spokespersons, and the contracts were still being fulfilled. Whether adding or changing spokespersons after the contract expired, they would be more cautious. He would have a chance sooner or later.

Lu Ziliang's good intentions made Xu Rui embarrassed to say "I don't care". It was too pretentious and annoying.

Xu Rui was more interested in endorsing beverage and snack brands. His interest was whether he didn't have to buy them specially after the endorsement. The other party would give him some when they had nothing to do, right?

In a series of notices, he passed the competition and variety shows, but it didn't seem good to not accept any of them, so he left a magazine cover shoot, which could be done in one day.

Just when he was about to reply, Lu Ziliang sent him a new invitation, including a local music festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala in a month.

He had just debuted, and he received invitations from multiple local stations to perform at the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala, which showed his popularity. The other party was flattering him. At this time, unless there was a special situation, he had to choose one to accept.

When he didn't know how to choose, he only had one principle, to choose the one close to home!

After talking with Lu Ziliang about his next job intention, Xu Rui was bored and found a notebook in Yan Ran's desk drawer with "Essay" written on it.

Xu Rui thought about it, took a photo with his phone, and sent a WeChat message to Yan Ran: "Can I see this?"

Yan Ran, who was busy, noticed the vibration of her phone, took it out and looked back at the closed door, and replied with a smile: "You are so curious, let's see it."

With permission, Xu Rui opened the essay, which was different from what he thought. It was not an essay similar to a diary. It did not write about personal emotions and life, but recorded some inspirations for script creation, but it was also quite interesting.

After a while, Yan Ran came in from outside, walked behind him, put her hands on his shoulders, and asked with a smile: "Take a break, what good things did you find?"

"Mostly life comedies." Xu Rui raised the notebook.

Yan Ran pouted: "Yes, I also want to have some creative ideas, but inspiration doesn't come to me, what do you say?"

Xu Rui smiled and said: "I think it reflects my personality. It shows that you are a person who pays attention to life, cares about your relatives and friends, and is optimistic and positive in life, rather than the kind of person who thinks irrelevantly and likes to fantasize."

Yan Ran rubbed his shoulders: "Really? Then praise me again!"

Xu Rui took her hand and pulled her to the side, looking around: "There are no chairs."

Aware of his thoughts, Yan Ran snorted: "I can go outside to get it."

Xu Rui said: "Then go."

"I'll go... How can I go if you don't let go!"

Xu Rui patted his legs proudly: "Yes, how can you go?"

Yan Ran rolled his eyes at him, kicked his feet angrily, sat over, and even exerted a little effort.

This scared Xu Rui, and he quickly reached out to cushion it, and naturally held it on the round part. Yan Ran was wearing jeans, which made him feel like holding a volleyball.

"Did you do that on purpose?" Yan Ran's cheeks flushed, staring at him, as if she wanted to bite him.

"What did you say?"

"Hand!"

"Oh." Xu Rui pulled his hand back calmly, "Where were we talking just now?"

"Don't even think about changing the subject!"

Xu Rui said quickly: "Ah, I suddenly thought of a new script idea, do you want to hear it? If not, I might forget it in a while."

Yan Ran rubbed his face, and then hummed: "Is this the only trick you have?"

Xu Rui raised his eyebrows proudly: "It doesn't matter how many tricks there are, as long as they are useful."

"Then tell me." Yan Ran had an expression of "see what if you can't say it."

Xu Rui would never fail here. After thinking for a while, he said, "Well, to put it simply, one is that the protagonist had a very bad and terrible childhood because of a bad experience, which still haunted him when he grew up. He accidentally discovered that he could travel through time and space to the past, so he wanted to change everything, but after trying again and again, he found that no matter how hard he tried, it would only make the future worse.

The other is that the protagonist, after growing up, found that he could talk to his father thirty years ago. He helped his father change his fate of death, and at the same time changed the future, so that he had a beautiful family again.

I'm curious, if you were asked to shoot it, which one would you choose to shoot?"

Different choices reflect different personalities. He also came up with the idea on a whim and thought of the two movies "The Butterfly Effect" and "Black Hole Frequency".

Yan Ran was a little accustomed to Xu Rui's wild ideas. She was happy but not surprised. After a little hesitation, she said, "I will shoot the second one!"

"Why?"

She said seriously: "Although the first part may be more in line with scientific theory, and the purpose of the first part should be to let the audience understand that the past cannot be changed, we must look forward, cherish the present, and take every step forward.

But in fact, most people understand this truth, but everyone still has too many regrets. Reality cannot be reversed. If even the movie cannot realize everyone's fantasy, how cruel it would be. I think the audience will be very moved to see the protagonist change the past and save his father... What are you laughing at?"

"Nothing, I just think you are so kind."

"I am really kind!" Yan Ran said, stood up, took the pen and stuffed it into Xu Rui's hand, "Your two ideas just now are very good, write them down quickly, I have to go to work, and come back to check it later. If you don't finish it, hum!"

Xu Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Can I take back what I said about your kindness now?"

"No!" Yan Ran walked away proudly.

Xu Rui was idle anyway, but Yan Ran's place was not very safe, not even a locked place, so he did not write too much details, just simply recorded the outline, and he would talk about it when she really wanted to shoot in the future.

He waited in the studio until the evening, and Yan Ran came to him again when it was almost time for dinner: "Will you be too bored waiting here?"

"No." Xu Rui showed him the screen of his mobile phone, "I just won 2 yuan of phone bills playing Landlord."

Yan Ran was speechless for a moment: "...As long as you are happy!"

Xu Rui asked: "How is your side, is it going well?"

"Well, it's going well, much faster than I expected, and the film will be out for review in half a month!" In Yan Ran's eyes, the light of dream coming true can be seen faintly.
