I heard that I'm a tomb robber

Chapter 20 Follow-up

"Jingle bell... Jingle bell..."

"Hello! How are you?" Mei Qian endured the headache and reluctantly picked up the phone.

"Hi, is this writer Mei Qian?"

"Well, it's me, who are you?" Mei Qian asked again with a slight frown when a strange man's voice came out from the phone.

"I'm Chen Liang from the Starfire Entertainment Operations Department. Excuse me, did I interrupt your rest?"

"It's okay, I'm getting up too." Mei Qian yawned, and said strangely: "Operation... how do you know my private mobile phone number? Shouldn't such things go through my assistant?"

"I heard that your assistant was injured and hospitalized. I got your contact information through a friend. I hope you don't take it too seriously! That's what happened. Our company has a big project that invites you to cooperate. I wonder if you are interested? "

project?Mei Qian sat up from the bed all of a sudden: "What project? Is it a variety show or film and television? Original script or adaptation?"

"We are going to invest in a movie and would like to invite you to participate in the writing of the script."

"Script..." Mei Qian lost all interest at once. He has never been very interested in this kind of propositional composition. The main reason is that there are too many constraints and requirements. It's a bad movie, and the screenwriter has to be scolded accordingly.

He was about to refuse, but the next sentence on the other side was: "For this project, in addition to giving you 5.00% of the investment amount as the scriptwriting fee, we will also share [-]% of your box office share. What do you think?" ?”

There is such a good thing?Mei Qian was stunned, and after thinking for a while, he said, "What kind of movie is it? What are the specific creative requirements?" In fact, specific matters should be discussed in person, but he was really curious about what he had that deserved such a big favor from the other party.

Then, he had the urge to drop the phone in an instant: "The project has not been approved yet, but the movie must be about tomb robbery. If you are not interested in writing scripts and just want to make a name, we will also count as your work, but you must pay attention to the title of the film. Ming is adapted from your personal experience. Mr. Mei's current popularity is very valuable, and the movie we cooperate with will definitely sell well. By then... hello? Hello? Mr. Mei..."

Mei Qian hung up quickly, cursing in her heart, Grave robbery?Have you experienced it yourself?Who is this?Seeing that I'm not unlucky enough, is it?
The phone rang again quickly. When he saw the incoming call, he blocked it decisively.

The room was finally quiet, and sleepiness was completely gone.

He got out of bed, and habitually folded the quilt into tofu cubes. He was half-struck before throwing the quilt on the bed, and then walked into the bathroom stroking the short, fluffy hair on top of his head.

By the time the assistant Mao Mao rang the doorbell, Mei Qian had already cleaned herself up.

"I drank so much last night, I thought you couldn't get up!" Maomao looked at the neatly dressed Mei Qian in surprise.

"Well, I can't sleep anymore!" The latter didn't mention the phone call just now, but took the packing bag in her hand, opened it, and looked at it. It was his favorite Xiaolongbao: "Next time, you don't have to run so far Wouldn't it be better to buy breakfast and order takeaway directly?"

"How can I buy takeaway by myself?" Maomao smiled and changed his shoes, grabbed the bag again, dragged him to the coffee table, and began to distribute tableware: "Eat quickly, it's still hot."

In order to celebrate my freedom, I had a big drink with my friends last night and didn't eat anything at all. I was hungry at this time.

So Mei Qian didn't care about hot buns, and ate a bun for two bites, eating quickly.

Mao Mao is more of a lady, sucking soy milk slowly, her big bright eyes will bend into crescents from time to time, aiming at the person sitting opposite intentionally or unintentionally.

Mei Qian ate the buns, drank the soy milk in two mouthfuls, pretended that Mao Mao's gaze didn't exist, leaned back on the sofa carelessly, pressed the remote control to watch TV.

I don't know if it's related to Da Huan Dan. The girl was in a coma all day after she came out from the ground. Originally, the doctor asked her to stay in the hospital for a few days to observe and observe, but the day before yesterday when she heard that he was released, she wanted to go home desperately.

In the past two days, he got up early every day to buy him breakfast, and his attitude towards him was also very different from the past, especially the inquisitive little eyes, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable.

Speaking of which, the reason why Mao Mao went to the archaeological site was to find her father to issue a textual proof that the ancient tomb of Dongshan was different from Mei Qian's novel.

This girl was too worried about Mei Qian's situation, and hoped that with the proof of archaeologists, Mei Qian could be cleared of suspicion and released, but unfortunately, she encountered an earthquake not long after she arrived.

And Mei Qian had some doubts, maybe Maomao knew about the secret drug feeding at that time, but no matter how she tried, the girl always acted cute and didn't say anything.

"Has anyone contacted you recently?" Mei Qian took the initiative to ask while switching channels boringly.

Maomao's assistant is mainly responsible for communicating with the outside world, and there are very few people who directly connect with him like this morning.

A prison disaster did not have much impact on Mei Qian's main business, but the variety shows and IP adaptations that she had contacted before had no further movement.Not to mention the loss of a large part of the income, the method of relying on photogenic to gain popularity has also fallen into the sand.

When it comes to work, Maomao's expression also becomes serious: "No, should I take the initiative to call and ask?"

"No, being on the pole is not a business. Besides, I plan to retreat and finish the book in hand. I won't go out anytime soon." Mei Qian still felt that he should keep a low profile recently. I'll give you a period of vacation, let go of work, and have fun. lest your mother always nag that you are too busy and have no time to fall in love. "

Maomao was stunned for a moment, then pouted dissatisfiedly: "My mother called you all the time?"

"Old people, they all look like this." Mei Qian couldn't help thinking of the troubled days when her parents urged her to go on a blind date when she just graduated from university.Sure enough, different worlds, the same kind of mother.A sense of melancholy rose in his heart, but after so many years, he had gradually gotten used to being alone.

"Then why don't you get married, you are several years older than me!" Maomao pouted dissatisfiedly.

"I didn't find a suitable one. Besides, I have no one to take care of me!" Mei Qian raised his eyebrows, making a look of gloating, paused, then restrained his smile, and said seriously: "By the way, it may happen in the past two days." A new assistant will come, a little brother I know in the detention center, and you will take it with you when the time comes."

"In your state, you still need a new assistant? Is it useful?" Maomao widened his eyes in confusion, and asked in surprise, "Is the prisoner in the detention center still a prison guard?"

"Prisoner, he's a nice guy. He's about the same age as you, so we should have a lot of common topics." Mei Qian blinked: "The key is, he feels particularly safe when he's around."

Mao Mao: "..."
-
After giving Maomao a break, Mei Qian really plans to retreat to codewords.

But when he saw the messy book reviews in the background, he couldn't cheer up.

The more he turned back, the more he was speechless, and finally decided not to write today, but to play games instead.

Unknowingly, it was in the afternoon, and the voice platform continued to scold him for elementary school students and handicapped party members, but he didn't care. He was about to start another game when the phone rang again.

After picking it up, it turned out to be police officer Zhang Yu.

This guy owed him two big meals, so he asked him to meet at the northeast restaurant at the gate of the community.

She cursed secretly, but she didn't eat for nothing, it was boring anyway, so Mei Qian put on her coat and baseball cap and went out.

Maybe because I didn't read the almanac, everything went wrong today.

As soon as he left the community, he was surrounded by reporters squatting there.

Mei Qian was dazzled by a large number of flashing lights, and was extremely speechless.

These guys are so free, why don't they go to star "big names"?

As a book writer like me, I can't even be considered an eighteenth-rate star, so where is the popularity coming from?
"Mr. Mei Qian, although you have been freed from suspicion, Qin Sen, the captain of the Xiadu criminal police detachment, claimed on his personal Weibo that he would continue to investigate this case. How do you feel?"

Is this over yet?There is no evidence, and a fart is still being investigated.

Thoughts?I dare to think but dare not do it.If you do what you want, you will become a criminal, and the death penalty is considered light.

Mei Qian: "Is there such a thing? I really haven't paid attention to these news these two days. I'll talk about it when I have time."

"Mr. Mei, will you apply for state compensation?"

"I have already submitted the application form. As for the compensation, I will donate all of it when I get it." Mei Qian thinks it's better to deal with it.

"Mr. Mei? You were exempted from prosecution this time, do you think you will be so lucky next time?"

"Thanks to the fairness of the law for clearing me of suspicion. In addition, I reiterate that I have a clear conscience and have never done anything illegal or criminal. Friends from all walks of life are welcome to supervise." Mei Qian solemnly replied.

"Mr. Mei, I heard that you fought several times in the detention center, and you were able to escape from danger underground in Xinglin Mountain. Is it because you are a master tomb robber with special skills?"

"You read too many novels, it's pure luck that we can come out." Mei Qian frowned.

"Mr. Mei, you are lucky enough to be free, do you feel ashamed?"

"Mei Qian..."

Without answering any more, Mei Qian lowered the brim of her hat and rushed out of the crowd...
