under the spotlight

Chapter 229
"Hey, it's me..."

Li Yang's gentle and calm words came out from the phone, but Du Chengran's restless heart sank to the bottom, but he still had hope in case: "I'm sorry Li Yang, you must not be impulsive, let alone in this kind of... ..."

"Of course, listen to me. I am very calm now. Things have come to this day. I always have to face them. Thank you for being with me for more than ten years, but... you know, we have no way to continue, so let's give Let's save some last decency for each other, I have entrusted a lawyer to prepare a divorce agreement, and she will contact you."

Du Chengran only felt that his sinking heart had become icy cold, so cold that he couldn't speak at all.

"Okay, that's it. You take good care of your mother and explain to her that we are going through divorce. I think she will get better soon. Hang up!"

Du Chengran listened to the blind tone on the mobile phone, only felt the coldness in her heart seep into her mouth and tongue, and could only feel a strong bitter taste. The mistakes she made when she was young hurt her body and caused the current situation. In this situation, she is the one who bears the bitter fruit in the end. She is the one who he once thought would be impossible to separate in this life and will not let go!
But right now, in front of the frail old mother, Du Chengran is powerless at all...

Li Yang was taken away by Wen Mengran, and Lu Beicen and Ran Zhen couldn't help sighing as they watched the car drive away.

Ran Zhen glanced at Lu Beicen: "Are you okay, your face is not very good-looking, do you want to find a place to have a cup of coffee?"

Lu Beicen shook his head: "Sister Zhen, I'm sorry to bother you about this matter, I know you generally don't want to take divorce cases."

Ran Zhen pursed her lips: "I'm out of sight. You know a lot of lawyers. Since you found me, there must be a reason. But, hey, it's a pity, what a good couple!"

Lu Beicen really didn't know what to say for a while, it seemed that in the past two days, all the things that were most certain in her heart had become superficial phenomena, like the outermost layer in countless interviews Cover, uncover that layer of cover, no one knows what it looks like inside...

"What's wrong? Can't you accept it?" Seeing Lu Beicen in a daze, Ran Zhen gently raised his hand and patted her on the shoulder.

Lu Beicen came back to his senses: "Well, it's a little collapsed. I've felt this way for the past two days. I'm a little confused."

"Look at you, you probably don't really want to talk. Let's talk when we want to talk. However, in fact, life and our work have the same truth. There is a big difference between the surface and the core! Alright, I still have something to do, so let's go first and make an appointment later!" Ran Zhen waved and drove away.

Lu Beicen felt a little headache. She really didn't want to go to the office anymore. On the way home, she received a call from Mr. Tang and was called to his office.

I was a little nervous, but I saw Mr. Tang's face was as usual, and he didn't feel any different from usual.

As if feeling Lu Beicen's scrutiny, Mr. Tang smiled and asked her to sit down: "You came back yesterday? Are you done filming?"

Lu Beicen nodded. For a long time, Mr. Tang never asked her about the filming outside. When she asked her suddenly, she felt a little unusual.

"I've watched all the films and programs you filmed during this period, and now I don't have to worry about it at all. It's good, we all think it's good." Mr. Tang's praise is really different from before, he rarely praises others, Generally, if he doesn't swear, the directors and directors will automatically think that they have been praised, and Lu Beicen is a little flustered by the praise.

"Mr. Tang, I, you, have you heard something?" If it was normal, Lu Beicen would still dare to joke with Mr. Tang, but at a time like today, she really doesn't know how to communicate with Mr. Tang.

Mr. Tang smiled, and nodded to Lu Beicen: "I just praised you for being mature, so you can't hold your breath anymore?"

It's a bit embarrassing, I went over what I said just now, but I didn't hear the word mature!Could it be something wrong with my ears.

"Why, what do you think?" Mr. Tang continued.

"No, no, Mr. Tang, please don't misunderstand me. I don't have any ideas. I just want to make films." Lu Beicen hurriedly asked for help.

President Tang's smile remained unchanged: "For a director like you, it's strange that no one comes to dig. Especially at this time, it's normal. Don't be nervous. I mean, in fact, you should have some ideas."

"What do you think? Mr. Tang, I really didn't think that much."

"You don't have to think too much, but you have to make progress."

Mr. Tang glanced at the bewildered Lu Beicen, and continued to smile: "You see, the channel can receive about thirty or forty feature films a year, plus some films from the planning department and some special programs on the channel. Production, there are always [-] or [-] films to be shot in a year, we plan to set up an independent editing and directing group under the feature department to be responsible for the shooting of this part of the film, how about it? Do you have an idea?"

Lu Beicen was a little surprised, and he was taken aback before he said: "Mr. Tang, these films are usually made by recruiting people from the feature department. Although I do a little more, but..."

"But there has to be someone to play the leading role, and it is not conducive to the stability of program scheduling and column stability, so we have discussed for a long time to deploy a few elite soldiers to specialize in this task. Now these films are basically You are the one who is reviewing manuscripts and films, although we have not given you an explanation, but we have considered it." Mr. Tang said warmly.

Lu Beicen pondered for a moment, and then said softly: "Mr. Tang, the current situation does not seem to be the right time. Don't worry, Mr. Tang. I really have no other ideas. I think the current work is quite fulfilling and I have done a very good job. happy."

This time, Tang was always surprised, and there was some relief in his smile: "So, I am really mature, this matter is not a temporary idea, it was decided at our meeting after the new year, but the new year is relatively busy, I haven't had time to talk about it, so you don't have to worry about it!"

"Boss Tang, then Boss Yang..." Lu Beicen asked suddenly.

Mr. Tang shook his head: "This is not something you should consider. Mr. Yang's matter is a normal procedure. Maybe those of you who have done projects will be subject to investigation. Anyway, you can just state the situation truthfully. Okay, this matter I won't talk too much, do you have anything else to say about the new editorial team?"

Lu Beicen immediately understood that Mr. Yang's matter was probably related to those projects undertaken outside, so it was really not easy to ask more questions, so he followed suit: "Mr. Tang, I want to ask, is that right? Our group will no longer make films for daily broadcasts in the future?"

Mr. Tang nodded: "Why? I still like the feeling of being a reporter?"

Lu Beicen didn't say a word. In fact, when she first came to the terrestrial channel, she wanted to be a reporter for the social line. If she really specialized in projects, it would mean staying away from the front line again and returning to the working state of the trainee period. In all fairness, she felt that this was actually a step backward, but in the current situation, she really didn't know what to say.

After being silent for a long time, Lu Beicen finally couldn't bear Mr. Tang's gaze, and began to change the subject: "Mr. Tang, can you let me think about it? By the way, something happened to Mr. Du this morning. Although it is his private matter, I I think I should report it to you."
