Chapter 9 The Sausage Man

Cheng Tianlu's heart beat two beats faster, and he took a step back.He couldn't understand the logical relationship between "I won't starve to death without this job" and whether he was single or not. Why was there such a twist in her words?

He doesn't understand this woman.But she's really beautiful, and she's still attacking.

He tore off the zombie cartoon casually, and stuck it on her forehead.Tong Yiru was stunned, and he stood there in a daze.

Cheng Tianlu raised his finger and murmured two spells, then said with a smile, "Beauty, don't come here, I know other spells."

Tong Yiru tore off the manga, stared coldly at Cheng Tianlu, and found that the editor-in-chief was still laughing happily.When Cheng Tianlu is serious, he is upright and steady, but when he smiles, his brows and eyes are vivid, and he looks like a high school boy instead.

She wanted to be angry but couldn't. She slapped the manga on his chest and scolded with a smile, "Childish!"

Cheng Tianlu felt sorry for his comics, "Don't be so rude, you broke me." After speaking, he carefully pasted the comics back into his notebook.

Tong Yiru saw Cheng Tianlu's movements were delicate and gentle, and his heart softened.She asked again, "What happened to your hand?"

Cheng Tianlu had a sad expression on his face: "Don't mention it, I was almost disabled at the eighth level."

"The wound can't be opened like this. It will become inflamed in a few days. If it is serious, it will be amputated. Your holding spell will not work."

For the convenience of work, Cheng Tianlu took off the bandages and Band-Aids, and his burnt fingers were purple and red, which looked terrible.Tong Yiru insisted on bandaging his wound.

The two sat on the table, Tong Yiru took off his long gloves and fiddled with the tape intently.Her bony hands are not as round as those of a young girl in her early twenties, and the knuckles of her fingers are also deeply lined.Looking up from her fingers, she met her delicate nose and freckles on her cheeks.She didn't have makeup on, he thought.

Her actions were not very gentle, and several times Tianlu wanted to say "Girl, if you want revenge, you can hit me face-to-face, don't execute the execution secretly", but he endured it and felt that she was much more amiable.When I think about it, I do have a prejudice against her. Putting aside the gossip and gossip outside, she is quite straightforward.

So, he also frankly advised: "You want to be in our show, but this is not a good job. If you want to survive starvation for a while, you should find another family."

Tong Yiru's mouth twitched: "In the end, I just don't want to use me."

"No," Cheng Tianlu sincerely raised his bandaged middle finger, "You don't know how dangerous Qige'er's film set is, and his hand was almost abandoned there. Besides, his movies are too low-key, unlike yours. A serious actor with a professional background is not all the way. Why do you waste yourself on bad movies?"

"Do I still have a choice now? As long as someone is willing to use me, I can act in anything. I have no other ideas, I just want to act." Her tone was cold, but each word was firm, and her eyes were filled with Not reconciled.

Cheng Tianlu could tell that Tong Yiru was stronger, and she should be dormant at this time, but she refused to hide.He chuckled: "Okay, you're going to be abused, I can't stop it. Ugly speaking, Brother Qi has very weird taste, and I don't deal with him very much. I can't guarantee what role he will assign you. .This zombie was drawn by him, you should be mentally prepared."

Tong Yiru turned his attention to the manga and nodded slightly.After a while, he said, "Thank you."

A few days later, Cheng Tianlu embarked on the journey to Planet 276 again.

This time he took Tong Yiru with him.She wore a high-necked black sweater and jeans, and wrapped herself tightly as usual. Although she was a well-known star, she didn't even have an assistant at this time.Taking her all day long is the same as taking an ordinary friend to dinner, and I feel very relaxed.

——If it wasn't for going to Qi Ge'er's site.

Entering the studio, Cheng Tianlu was on high alert.Ling Lingjiu walked over with a smiling face, "Master Lu, come to play again!"

Cheng Tianlu nodded, and solemnly declared: "If you don't have aid, you have one life. Don't try to trick me into buying you ice cream."

Ling Lingjiu was overjoyed, and pulled his arm: "Don't say I'm like a bandit, I'm your fan, and it's time for me to provide support items. Hey, this is Teacher Tong, the big star is here, please Please sit down."

Ling Lingjiu is always cheerful, rich and kind, but the producer is poor, where is there real soft dough?To be on the safe side, Cheng Tianlu talked to Ling Lingjiu on the phone first, and made it clear that he would recommend Tong Yiru to the crew.

Ling Lingjiu pondered for a while on the phone: "It's easy to talk about anything else, is her lover sentenced? If it involves too much, she will be banned, and our film will also be blocked."

"If it's really that unlucky, just cut off her part." Cheng Tianlu played a rogue: "Didn't Brother Qi say that if it's a gangster, just cut it off?"

"Look at what you said, it's all money. Do you think it's as simple as cutting out two sentences from a manuscript?"

"Don't worry, Brother Nine, I don't think it's enough to block her. She's a topical figure now, what a good publicity, it saves you the money to buy traffic."

"We never buy traffic for our movies." Ling Lingjiu thought for a while, "It doesn't matter if I use her. You Lord Lu finally recommended someone, so I have to give him some face."

Cheng Tianlu couldn't help but blush, unexpectedly, Uncle Hai hadn't pushed anyone into the group yet, so he went through the back door first.I sincerely thank you immediately: "Brother Jiu is righteous, this favor is owed, next time I want to sell my kidney or my life, it's just a matter of your words. Will Brother Qi have any objections?"

"He never reads gossip news, and he doesn't even recognize a few celebrities. Besides, isn't she the Queen of Hundred Flowers—if not, let her go into the dressing room and have a chat with Brother Qi alone."

Cheng Tianlu thought of the dim "dressing room" and immediately felt sick.He doesn't talk too much about others, but Tong Yiru couldn't help but said after bandaging his wound, "She's a decent person."

Ling Lingjiu smiled: "She is a decent person, but our society is not serious. See you later."

This conversation ended on the phone, and now they are in the rest corner of the set, and no one recommends anyone to join the team. The atmosphere is peaceful and friendly.There are snacks and hot tea on the table, Ling Lingjiu has long sleeves and is good at dancing, and with a few words, he is so familiar with people that he is at a classmate reunion.

All day long, I saw a large 20-inch tablet standing on the table, with many scenes drawn on it.He turned a few pages: "Drawn by Brother Qi?"

"For the storyboards of our film, Brother Qi draws the storyboards himself for every film."

"This can be published as a single book. Are all directors so good at drawing?"

"Of course not. Directors have all kinds of skills, some have strong aesthetics and artistic expression, some have a good voice, some are rich, some are very good at screenwriting, some are meticulous in the early stage, and so on; Brother Qi is very good at visual expression. After he draws the storyboard, the shooting is basically the same, and the editor also saves trouble. So he shoots the film quickly and saves money, and he has a clear picture of what he wants in his mind."

I browse these paintings all day long, without a single word, and I can understand the progress of the whole story from the pictures.Of course, they are all violent and bloody, and there are a lot of explosive scenes. The story is completely in the service of violent pleasure, with simple and tough lines and a distinctive style.

Cheng Tianlu doesn't like to watch violent movies, but he quite likes Qi Ge'er's painting style, which is neat and not exaggerated, with strong lines.This is in common with a good report, although one is a documentary and the other is a reckless disregard for human life.

Brother Qi walked over slowly, wearing a red coat.Next to him was still the big-breasted sister with a face so sharp that it could cut paper.

Seeing Cheng Tianlu, Brother Qi expressed condolences: "Is your hand healed?"

Cheng Tianlu immediately cried miserably, "No, the doctor said that the limbs will be amputated if they can't take care of them, can they report work-related injuries?"

Brother Qi grabbed his hand unceremoniously, "I'll go and take a picture when the limb is amputated, so as to save money on makeup."

Cheng Tianlu gritted his teeth, Qi Geer really has no humanity at all.

The assistant director came over and told them that the machine was ready and ready to shoot.Brother Qi asked Cheng Tianlu: "What are you doing for me today?"

"I owe you? To help you do your work for nothing."

Brother Qi didn't let go of his hand, and led him to the set scene, "I heard that you want to introduce a friend to me."

Cheng Tianlu said angrily: "Okay! If you want me to act like a dead body, I will act like a dead body, and if I want to act like a puppy, I will act like a puppy."

Brother Qi pondered for a while: "You don't need to act like a puppy, you can act like a sausage."

Staring at him all day long.

Brother Qi smiled: "I'm not in vain to instigate you, I'll give you money."

So Chengtianlu compromised again.This time he was led into a living room.

Seeing the set, Tianlu knows what a "sausage" is.When watching the storyboard just now, he remembered a scene of a living room party.Although there are some differences in the props and furnishings of the scene in front of me, the overall tone and space feel exactly the same as in the painting.

He looked up at the four-meter-high ceiling, and there was indeed a gleaming silver strangler hanging above it.There was a pile of purple-red props lying on the table, probably the sausage man that had been cut open.

As usual, this scene is another massacre.A group of people gathered together to drink tea, look at their expressions, and the atmosphere was pleasant and harmonious.While talking and laughing, a person was suddenly hung up.The man rushed to a mechanism on the roof, and before he could shout, he was sliced ​​into six pieces, like a blooming sausage.

The people below continued to chat without knowing it, until the jaw fell off with the teeth and smashed into one's teacup.

Cheng Tianlu murmured: "You're going to hang me up and kill me..."

The author says:

There are many directors who are good at drawing storyboards, such as Akira Kurosawa, Tsui Hark, Ridley Scott from Blade Runner, and Tim Burton's character designs are also great.One of the cinematic sense we are talking about now refers to the language of the camera, not the characters babbling and a bunch of narration.It would be better to read novels.
