Global Movie Emperor

The pen writes and draws on the paper, and the soft ink slowly forms fonts on the white blank space. It is late autumn now, and the wind has become stronger with the climate. It blows the yellow leaves on the trees and makes a loud crashing sound. It sounds good.

Lu Ze put aside the other work at hand and concentrated on writing the lesson plan for the first period of the group performance training class. He already had an idea of ​​what he would teach in the first class.

It is nothing more than emphasizing the importance of relaxation. He has said before that the reason for the rough performance of domestic group performers, in simple terms, is to hold on, and the surprise training they have to do in the first class is to let the group performers They relax their nerves and bodies that are often tense in front of the camera.

But this is easy to say and difficult to say. The simple thing is that acting only requires relaxing in front of the camera, and there is no need to show any superb changes in facial expressions. But the difficulty is that it is not Lu Ze who needs to relax, but a group of people who have already A group performer who is used to being tight.

The specific lesson plan process has been sorted out. He folded his notebook and put it away, flipping through the mobile phone placed on the table. Wang Zixuan had already booked the air ticket and set off the day after tomorrow to Hengdian, the place where Lu Ze's career started.

After working hours, I looked at the time and saw that it was already evening. I had not been active for several hours. When I got up, the bones in my body were crackling. The coffee in the drip pot was kept warm. Even after several hours, it was still suitable for drinking. He poured a cup and drank it. Coffee without sugar or milk would suppress his appetite, which temporarily soothed Lu Ze's stomach.

What to eat in the evening, or what to eat for three meals a day, is always the most difficult multiple-choice question for a man who lives alone. After browsing the stores on the takeout app, looking at all kinds of fast food, he really has no appetite. In the end Decide……

Just wait.

Returning to the bar, he charged his mobile phone and saw a toy car that had been dismantled on the table. He scratched his temples with his little finger, then sat back down and started working again. , but this time he is going to take action on children's toy cars.

The broken front bumper was glued together, and it accidentally got on his hand, forming a thin shell. This feeling was very uncomfortable. Fortunately, Lu Ze had a thick callus on his hand, so he scraped it off with a razor blade. , and scraped off a handful of glue debris.

The damage to the casing was still a minor problem, but the most important thing was the damage to the motor. No matter how hard he tried, the wheels just wouldn't turn. In order to find out the problem, Lu Ze went to the computer repairman's house next door to borrow a pen and try it out. It took a long time to determine the cause of the problem.

It's nonsense if you ask Lu Ze to repair the motor. His father is a carpenter, not an electrician. As he inherited his father's business, of course he can repair tables, chairs and benches, but when it comes to repairing electrical appliances, he has to squint to change a light bulb.

So find the simplest way, go to the supermarket to buy a new one, remove the motor, and replace it in an old car that has been severely damaged. After a set of wasteful repair methods, the toy car that was facing scrapping was finally restored to its vitality.

The remaining work is much simpler. Install various parts on the chassis, install two AA batteries, reattach the polished car cover, turn on the switch, and the car runs smoothly on the table until It fell from the edge of the table and was caught firmly by Lu Ze.

She happily placed the four-wheel drive on the bar, but couldn't help but take a closer look. This kind of toy was not his childhood. Going up the mountain to pick mushrooms or going down the river to fish for small fish was, but it was Lu Nan's childhood. She When he was young, the four-wheel drive brother was angry. He still remembered the scene when she hugged his thigh and cried loudly, demanding a four-wheel drive for life and death. However, her little wish did not come true at that time.

It wasn't until a few years later that this kind of four-wheel drive vehicle became unpopular, that he spent ten yuan on a box of four-wheel drive toy that was completely made of parts while going to the market. Unfortunately, Lu Nan didn't like it anymore by then.

I took a few photos and sent them to Lu Nan. Maybe it was during lunch break, and she happened to be looking at her phone. She immediately replied with a slutty smile.

"Where did it come from?"

"The kid's one from the school next door was broken, so I fixed it."

"Brother, I want it too!"

"I have it at home, on top of my closet."

She seemed to have remembered it, crying for a four-wheel drive, and bluntly stating that she didn't like four-wheel drive. She seemed to have an impression of both scenes, so this time, she chose to rub Lu Ze once again. She liked it again. Four-wheel drive.

While chatting with Lu Nan with a smile, the wind chime hanging on the door rang. Without Lu Ze having to speak first, the crisp greetings reached Lu Ze's ears.

"Hi boss."

"good."

"The school food is quite good tonight. If you haven't eaten, boss, you don't mind if I bring you some."

How many times has this been the school meal? Seeing that there is food coming to the door, and it is not fast food, and more importantly, it must be very hygienic. Lu Ze took it unnaturally, folded the food in the lunch box into a bowl, and added Stir-fried dried tofu with one chopstick of chili pepper.

"The car has been repaired. It's on the bar, to the left of the Lucky Cat."

The tavern was not big, and she was already familiar with the specific placement of items. She slowly followed the edge of the table and touched the Lucky Cat, which was full of gold powder and had a very rough paint surface. She moved her hand again and easily Pick up the 4x4.

"Boss, you are so awesome..."

sharp? He just threw away the hood of his new car and handed over the old one as soon as he clicked on it. How could he be next to me? If he hadn't thought that this toy car might have a different meaning to the child, Lu Ze would have really planned to do it. So after hearing her praise, he felt more or less embarrassed and quickly took two mouthfuls of rice and stuffed it. In the mouth.

"Can it still run?"

"Um."

"Boss, you are so awesome, even the school teachers can't understand you."

She once helped Lu Ze get beer, so she remembered that Lu Ze liked to drink the wine on the far right of the second row in the second freezer. She knew he would drink it because there was never an exception, so she walked to the freezer. In front of me, I took the beer and took off the screwdriver on the freezer.

When she opened the bottle cap, she exerted great force, because her strength was really very small, and she frowned, as if her strength did not flow to her hands, but ran to her face.

Bang, the bottle cap was lifted, but did not fall to the ground. She threw it into the trash can. The bottle was placed in front of Lu Ze. She stood at the table, her body standing very straight, her hands behind her back, her face a little pale. Hong is like a child waiting to be praised for helping an adult.

The small bottle of White Bear is meant for every night, so don’t drink too much because you have to control your weight. It has just been opened, and the bubbles are rising, clinging to the brown bottle body, and gathering at the mouth of the bottle, forming a thin layer of white floating water. The foam then exploded with a sound that no one could hear.

But it can be seen.

He looked down at the mouth of the bottle, silently, picked it up and took a sip. Seeing that her smile was a little frozen, he finally said softly: "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

The frozen smile melted instantly and flowed all over her body, as if overflowing in a sea of ​​joy, but she still didn't move, standing at the table, because her colleague, the female teacher, told her repeatedly.

Be reserved.

It's not about being coy, but even if you want to do something, you have to wait for the man's invitation. If there is no response, then resign, instead of being too familiar with other people's places and doing what you want without being invited.

"Sit down, what do you want to hear today?"

Just when she was about to say goodbye, Lu Ze finally responded. She was excited in her heart, took a long breath as usual, endured her heartbeat like a drum, and said, "Everything is fine."

It's all good, yes, it's all good. As long as you sit down here, you can listen to anything. Sometimes what you think in your heart is like a veil that needs to be broken through by others. After recognizing that this is worship, she takes a step further. Now you understand what it means to like.

A very strange feeling, but well-founded. It was my first love in my life. After being confused for a while, I finally cleared the air and saw Zhenzhang.

Sitting in her familiar position, the innermost bench next to the window, she even swung her legs happily, and her every move was also visible to Lu Ze. She would not pretend, she was too direct, and she didn't need to It was Lu Ze, but anyone else could easily see through this.

Without speaking for the time being, he stood up and put a CD into the record player. Melodious music played. Jazz-style piano music was also Lu Ze's favorite style.

He silently put the food she brought into his stomach. At this time, he was eating with regret. However, when she had not yet determined her feelings, Lu Ze did not regard food as a channel for communication with her.

As a result, every time this happened, he was always embarrassed, and he once told her not to bring any more food, but she seemed to regard his words as a polite way of speaking, and also regarded Lu Ze's gradually decreasing vocabulary. Give selective forgetting.

Cleaning the lunch box she brought, I glanced at her from time to time. She seemed a little different today than in the past. She was particularly uneasy. Her head was pressed against the window glass and her palms kept rubbing.

The two remained silent until the entire CD was played. She knew it was time to leave, so she stood up to say goodbye to Lu Ze, took the lunch box, and turned around. At this time, Lu Ze saw that she seemed to have forgotten What was it? Walking over, it was a piece of paper. There was no text on it, but uneven circular marks covering the entire paper in a very regular manner.

She definitely didn't leave this behind accidentally, because she had never left anything behind. It was Braille, which he couldn't read, but someone could.

…

"Blind man! Blind man!"

He shouted, running wildly in the city without feeling tired, passing through other people, and walked to a certain corner. The blind man formed a small music team with the old man, the mental patient, the driver, and the pianist.

At this moment, the old man was holding his waist and hoisting his voice, while the blind man was sitting on a stone pier playing Allegro to the accompaniment. When he heard someone shouting, he stretched his neck and listened, and then Lu Ze grabbed him by the collar.

"Do...what?"

"Help me!"

Lu Ze, the tough guy, can't be bothered, but nowadays, soft persimmons can still be pinched. It's a pity that the blind man and the old man are the softest persimmons among this group of people.

…

He suddenly straightened his body and looked at the surrounding environment curiously. Suddenly he seemed to remember something. He took the paper and gently stroked the uneven round particles with his index finger.

He read very quickly, perhaps because the text was too simple. In short, after quickly reading the entire page, he trembled again.

…

"What did you write?"

"Written...I like you."

"Gone?"

"I've written hundreds of times that I like you. That's it. It must have taken me a long time to write. It's a love letter."

"Oh~"

"Dad, I know I was wrong!"

Unknowingly, a lot of people had gathered around me. After hearing the words, they all started shouting, and their tone was full of ridicule. Only the mentally ill person seemed to be having an attack, running around inappropriately, and a small figure appeared in the waxy figure. Yelling, chasing after the psycho.

"Oh, you are so tall."

Cursing at everyone, he ran wildly again, heading towards the space rift in the distance that had existed for a long time.

…

"Wait a moment."

"What's wrong, boss?"

She walked to the door and heard Lu Ze's shout. She stopped and showed a panic similar to a guilty conscience. Moreover, she really heard the sound of the paper swaying in the air.

"You left something behind."

Now she was completely panicked, and her face instantly turned scarily red. Even Lu Ze was worried that if she fell, she might suffer a cerebral hemorrhage. Then, she could only pretend that she had really forgotten, and continued. The love letter she left behind, which in countless fantasies should be very romantic.

She put it away stiffly and expressed her gratitude to Lu Ze. At this time, after the romance was shattered, she just wanted to leave quickly and escape from this embarrassing atmosphere.

"Wait a moment……"

In the end, Lu Ze decided to say, if someone likes you but you don't want to accept it, then don't hang around. This is not what people do, especially for a girl who is much younger than him.

"I know what it says."

"Uh-huh?"

Her hand holding the crutch began to shake. She never imagined that Lu Ze could understand, and the old-fashioned toad mirror could hardly cover her violently fluctuating emotions.

"Are you...serious?"

"Um……"

"Mengchu, can I call you that?"

"Um……"

"I'm sorry, I think we should just be friends."

Lu Ze still has some experience in refusing to confess, but when facing a little girl, he still feels hesitant and chooses words in his mind that are less likely to hurt people, even if she will definitely be hurt.

He lit a cigarette and sat on the chair. He held the finished White Bear bottle in his hand and kept turning it on the table. His eyes were always locked on her, watching her face slowly change from rosy to red. Pale.

"Is it because I...can't see?"

"It has nothing to do with that."

"Is it because I am poor? In fact, I have saved a lot of money, and my salary is very high..."

"It has nothing to do with money."

"Is it because I'm not good-looking...?"

She touched her face subconsciously, and her fingertips could still feel the residual warmth from her blush, or maybe it was the coldness of her fingers caused by Lu Ze's words. She rarely thought about her figure and appearance, but now she recognized Yes, I have no awareness of beauty or ugliness, but that doesn’t mean others can’t feel beauty.

Lu Ze looked at her and took a puff of cigarette. She was standing at the door. Her skin had the texture of jade under the warm light. Her skin was very good and frighteningly white, but it was not pale. It was more like frost. It could even be "transparent". "Crossing" the ice layer, you can see the blue veins flowing underneath, at least that's how it looks on the palm of your hand.

Her long hair shawls makes her already small cheeks look even smaller. Her cheekbones are not too high and she doesn't look stingy. The bridge of her nose is quite straight. She wears old-fashioned toad glasses and her eyebrows are not trimmed, so she doesn't look like an ordinary woman. Exquisite, the face is only slightly thinner, and with more flesh, it would definitely be more perfect.

But my figure can only be said to be average. After all, I am too thin. I am over 1.65 meters tall, but I can visually estimate that I can't weigh more than 100 pounds. It is inevitable that I will be a little on the same level. Although my appearance is not that top-notch, I can only say that I look good at first glance. A very small baby face, very cute type, not ugly at all.

Regarding what she said, Lu Ze could only shake his head helplessly, leaned back, leaving only the back legs of the stool to support the ground, took out a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, opened it, took a sip, and then spoke.

"I'm thirteen years older than you."

"It doesn't matter, I'm not thirty years older."

"Let's think calmly, okay? Do you know what I do?"

"Not the beer shop owner...?"

"Look, you don't even know what I do, so is it too abrupt for you to choose me? My beer shop is just a side job. I have to go abroad for work, and I may only come back once a year or so. You also know that I sometimes don’t open the door for a long time. If we are together, we may not see each other for a long time. Can you accept this? "

She was a little hesitant, but it was not because of time, but because in her impression, people who worked abroad were very powerful, which led to an inferiority complex about her own profession.

Lu Ze also caught this trace of hesitation, although the two people had completely different ideas.

"Look, you don't think it's appropriate anymore, right? Once I go to work and I can't see you for a long time, if something happens to you, I won't be able to take care of you..."

"I don't need care."

This was the first time in her life that she had taken away Lu Ze's words. Because of her particularly sensitive vocabulary, Lu Ze felt something was wrong and quickly apologized to her.

"It is indeed inappropriate to say this. I'm sorry, but I feel that if we live like this, I will come back more than half a year, or even more than once a year, and this will be the case for the next ten years or even longer. This will not be good for either party. It’s all unfair, so we are really not suitable and we have to look at our own situation calmly, what do you think?”

Another relatively sensitive word, her own situation, was said by Lu Ze unconsciously. She bit her lower lip, but did not think about the time issue, but kept thinking about her own situation. Yes, she is like this, Do you deserve to be with Lu Ze?

"Is it really not possible?"

"It's not a question of whether it works or not. I hope you can understand that the two of us are not suitable. Age, work, and time are not suitable. So I hope you can understand. Unless you can accept all this, and you also need to let me accept it. all of these."

She was confused for the first time. In terms of feelings, Lu Ze's reasons were too perfect and flawless. She couldn't find any way to refute. In the end, she stood blankly for a long time and nodded. During this period, Lu Ze kept paying attention. There were no tears on her face.

"I understand, boss, then...I'll leave first."

"good."

He was still taciturn and only uttered this one word, but she was used to Lu Ze like this, so she didn't feel aggrieved. She just rushed in Lu Ze's direction and bowed.

"It's been so long. I'm sorry for causing you trouble, boss."

"Don't say that either."

She sniffed and felt like crying, but finally endured it. She took out the piece of paper again, put it into the lining of her coat and patted it twice.

She re-twisted the satchel that was stuck to her buttocks and stuck it to her waist. She struggled to push the door open. It was windy outside, and for a moment she couldn't push the door open. But the next moment, pushing the door became much easier, and she could feel it. When she arrived, Lu Ze stood behind her, just like... when she first bumped in by mistake.

She walked out and walked towards the school. The wind was really strong, blowing on her face, but it wasn't like she would be blown away when she walked, but she could only hear the wind in her ears.

So she didn't notice that Lu Ze had been following her not far away. Sound can be carried by the wind, and it can be heard farther with the wind than against the wind. So Lu Ze was sure that she really wasn't crying and was a little calm. It was strange, but the sound of the cane hitting the ground became more intensive.

He walked with her this distance until she arrived at the school gate. There were about fifteen meters between the two of them. He watched her standing at the gate and gently knocked on the glass of the guard room.

"Teacher Zhang, there is such a strong wind, where have you been?"

"I'm going to play!"

"Next time, don't run out alone in this kind of weather. It's too dangerous. Be careful of the strong wind blowing you to Sulian. Hahaha, I'll open the door for you."

The old guard opened the electric door with a pulley, leaving a big gap for her, but she never entered. When the guard saw this, he had some questions, but he didn't say anything.

She suddenly turned her head and faced the community in front of her. At the back of the community was Lu Ze's shop. She stood for a while, as if she could see something. After standing for about thirty seconds, she turned around and stepped into the school. .

Lu Ze just kept watching from behind, bending over and pressing his elbows on the guardrail of the sidewalk, as he watched her step by step into the small bungalow, the teacher's dormitory next to the teaching building.

The light was turned on, it was her room, she stood by the window, reached out and flicked the wind chime hanging on the window, when the sound stopped, she flicked it again, three times in a row, then she stopped and slowly pulled it up curtain.

At this time, Lu Ze stood up, patted the dust on his sleeves, and walked towards the store. Suddenly, he felt a coldness on his face, followed by a faint feeling of moisture. He raised his head, and under the light of the street lamp, he saw a complex white Snowflakes are flying all over the sky. The snowflakes are not big, but the size of rice grains, but they mean that Lu Hua's first snow in 2024 is coming.

Snowing.

"..."
