Chapter 49 Cohabitation
Chapter 49 Living together
Wang Xiaoshuai nodded heavily, "Yes, that's what I mean."
If he hadn't seen Huo Yunting pretending to be a worker from Gao Yuanyuan's house that day, he would definitely have visited the thatched cottage and invited Li Bin out at all costs.
But now that we have Huo Yunting as our replacement, why do we still have to beg others in such a lowly manner?
After all, he is also one of the representatives of the sixth generation of directors. He has also won some international awards. When looking for a male or female lead, he has to come to his door to ask for help over and over again?
Do you really think he has no face?
"Director Wang, since you have decided, shall we sign the contract now?" Wang Jinghua took out a few pieces of paper from the folder and handed it over.
"Sign, sign now!"
Taking the paper, Wang Xiaoshuai signed his name with flying colors.
Suihe handed another contract to Huo Yunting.
Putting away the contract, Wang Jinghua showed a bright smile and stretched out her hand to Wang Xiaoshuai, "Director Wang, I wish us a happy cooperation."
“A pleasure to work with.”
Because Huo Yunting is the leading actor in this film, the salary must be higher, but it is only 100,000.
First, Wang Xiaoshuai is a director of literary films. His films have to win awards first before selling them. The remuneration cannot be too high.
Secondly, Huo Yunting's own status as a celebrity is not that big, and he has only played two roles. One is Xie Tianhua in "The Shadow", and the other is Coolie Qiang in "Kung Fu".
They are all marginal figures who barely make it to the main creative team.
However, Wang Jinghua is quite optimistic about this film. Otherwise, she would not have found such resources for Huo Yunting.
Wang Xiaoshuai can praise Li Bin, so why can't he praise Huo Yunting?
Remuneration is secondary now. As long as you can win an award internationally, it's not a loss.
It would be even better if Huo Yunting could also take advantage of the opportunity and win one or two awards. It doesn’t have to be big or good, just a nomination. His career in the future will be smooth.
After signing the contract, Wang Xiaoshuai left in a hurry.
Huo Yunting hurriedly stopped and asked about the boot time.
"Director Wang, I would like to ask, when will we start the filming?"
"Start it up? It's early." Wang Xiaoshuai repeated with a smile, then waved his hand, "I have just found the male and female protagonists, and I haven't finished looking for other supporting roles yet."
After hearing this, Huo Yunting shrugged and expressed understanding.
Well, it looks like it will be a while before it starts. I just hope it doesn’t take too long.
After all, my illness has become much more serious these days.
This is strange to say. He has appeared in so many small roles in "A World Without Thieves", and the feeling of digestion has made him feel calmer.
According to his own estimation, the onset of disease can be delayed to at least mid-September - the standard of this estimation method is very mysterious, and he himself cannot explain a fixed formula and logic.
But I just know how long it can last. Maybe it’s due to my talent.
Now, in mid-to-late August, gibbering starts to appear in his ears from time to time. This is especially serious when he is observing and copying passers-by on the street.
It was far different from his innermost prediction.
Shaking his head, putting these distracting thoughts in his heart, he stood up and sent Wang Xiaoshuai away from the company.
"Director Wang, please walk slowly on the road."
"Hmm...huh? By the way, Xiao Huo. I have something to tell you."
He stopped a taxi, rolled down the window as soon as he got in, and stuck his head out to greet Huo Yunting.
"Have you ever been in love before?"
"No."
"What about secret love? Have you ever liked any girl?"
Huo Yunting shook his head, "No."
Before entering junior high school, my mind was filled with all kinds of martial arts. I was addicted to practicing martial arts every day and couldn't extricate myself.
Later, I suddenly got this disease, and all I could think about was how to cure it. How could I have any thoughts about having a crush on someone?
Wang Xiaoshuai nodded thoughtfully, "I heard from Wang Jinghua that you are renting a courtyard house now, right?"
"right."
"There are two rooms available, right?"
"What's wrong, Director Wang? You want to be my roommate?" Huo Yunting joked.
"I'm busy." Wang Xiaoshuai waved his hand, "I want Yuanyuan to be your roommate."
Let Gao Yuanyuan be my roommate?
Huo Yunting then remembered that when he was on the set of "The Shadow", Lao He asked them to pair up in pairs and have to be next to each other every day except sleeping.
Is Director Wang planning to play this trick?
"Director Wang, are you trying to smooth out the relationship between us?"
"Huh? This means you have experience. Yes, that's what it means. You can understand it best."
Huo Yunting felt a little dizzy for a moment.
He didn't mind letting Gao Yuanyuan live in the same courtyard as him. After all, he wouldn't suffer any loss no matter what.
But the question is, does the girl agree to it?
Faced with Huo Yunting's question, Wang Xiaoshuai said bluntly, "You have never even had a secret love. How will you act if you don't cultivate your relationship with others?"
"Don't worry, I'm an old actor and know more than you."
"Call back and call me!"
The taxi drove towards the distance, and Wang Xiaoshuai, who was leaning out half of his body, waved the mobile phone in his hand.
"I'm really not afraid of a misfire." Huo Yunting shook his head, went to the vegetable market to buy some specials, and then returned to the courtyard.
"Hey, I should pay the gas, water and electricity bills."
At around 10 o'clock in the evening, Huo Yunting was lying on the bed reading a novel when there was a knock on the courtyard door.
"Here, who is it?"
I got up, put on my clothes, and walked out of the yard with a flashlight. I didn't forget to pick up a stone brick from the corner and carry it behind my back.
Opening the door, a well-dressed figure was seen, carrying a large suitcase in his left hand.
It's not too boring even in the summer. I have a hat and a mask on, and I'm wearing a body-shaping black sportswear.
The moonlight shone brightly, and her beautiful figure was clearly visible.
It's a woman.
The girl dragged her suitcase and quickly got into the door. She quickly took off her hat and mask and took a deep breath.
The flashlight shone on her face, and Huo Yunting said in surprise, "Sister Yuanyuan?"
"Haha...Hi?"
The two rooms on the left and right were full of old dust, and she would suffer from respiratory infections even after staying there for one night. So Huo Yunting took her to the main bedroom.
The two exchanged words and Huo Yunting understood.
Wang Xiaoshuai told her about his promotion to the leading role and the need for them to get along, and she agreed.
The reason why I came here in the middle of the night was because I was afraid there would be paparazzi during the day.
"So, Xiaoyun, where do I live?"
You are very anxious. The corners of Huo Yunting's mouth twitched a few times.
He just told you during the day that you would come at night, and you didn't say hello in advance. Where did he find the time to clean up?
"Sister Yuanyuan, please sleep with me first. I'll go to the living room and spend the night together."
"Then why are you so embarrassed, I -"
"Stop! You can just sleep from here."
Without saying a word, Huo Yunting rolled up his bed and threw it in the living room.
When Gao Yuanyuan saw this, she could only nod and thank her.
The stone tile floor in the living room was very hard, but Huo Yunting didn't care.
The kang was also hard when I was a kid, so I was used to it.
I was just lying on the bed, listening to the sound of Gao Yuanyuan cleaning up next door, feeling a little confused.
His heart was beating so loudly that he could hear it himself.
Should I collect rent from her?
