This director needs to apologize

Chapter 169 Megan’s Script
Lily's home is in the famous Beverly Hills, a first-class mansion in Los Angeles.

Chen Yiming is not surprised. Colin Lao was a rock star in the 90s and [-]s. During his career, he has had double-digit original songs among the top ten on the Billboard. His net worth must be quite high.

This manor was actually bought specifically for Lily to live in. It is located halfway up the mountain. Old Colin's manor is near the top of the mountain and has a larger area and better location.

The car stopped at the manor, and Chen Yiming carried the box and followed Lily inside.

Passing around a person-high hedge, you can see a ten-meter-square flower garden, and behind it is a large two-story house.

A girl was holding a showerhead and was bending down to water the flowers. When she heard the noise, she got up and turned her head, and her eyes met with Chen Yiming's.

He is about the same height as Lily, has a similar figure, and even looks the same as Lily.

It's just that her face is more than a little longer than Lily's, which suddenly pulls down her overall appearance. Coupled with her sharper jaw, it adds a bit of sharp and mean temperament to the girl.

Indeed, judging from his appearance, he is not shy at all.

Lily greeted them first and introduced the two of them.

“Good morning Meghan, this is the Palme d’Or winner Chen Yiming that you have been thinking about so much, you can call him MING.

Yi Ming, she is Xiangrui’s roommate, our big benefactor Megan Allison. "

Chen Yiming shook hands with the girl and said "nice to meet you". Megan pursed her lips and said nothing, but nodded with a blushing face.

The three of them entered the living room on the first floor. Lily went to prepare breakfast and dug out Xiangrui who was curled up in bed to escape reality.

The remaining two people were sitting on the sofa, looking at each other with nothing to say, and the atmosphere was very awkward.

Fortunately, Lily went downstairs quickly, followed by Fu Ruixiang, who was dodging the glare.

Xiangrui seemed embarrassed to speak, Chen Yiming ignored her, and Lily had nothing to say for a while.

The four of them ate breakfast in silence and returned to the living room to continue practicing the closed-mouth chant. Lily winked at Xiangrui several times, and the latter finally plucked up the courage to speak.

"Yiming, I'm sorry to disappoint you."

Chen Yiming chuckled, "This is not my project. It seems that I am disappointed, my director Fu Da."

Lily punched Chen Yiming and smoothed things over, saying, "Xiangrui is not to blame for this. Who would have thought that the other party would be so mean as to plant an undercover agent."

Chen Yiming raised his hand to stop Lily's defense, and asked Xiangrui, "Having been in seclusion for so many days, what lessons have you learned? Or have you come up with any remedies?"

Xiangrui hesitated for a long time, but finally said nothing, just hung his head in embarrassment.

Chen Yiming sighed and said, "Why are you so closed-minded? If something goes wrong and you don't want to solve the problem, what's the use of feeling sorry for yourself?"

Xiangrui said with a cry, "But my mind is blank and I can't think of anything."

Chen Yiming stretched out his right hand and said, "Come on, tell me your original plan. How will you deal with the actors, the venue, and the post-production process?"

Xiangrui was stunned when asked, and it took him a while to answer, "The actors are planned to be hired through the Screen Actors Guild. The venue, uh, the venue is chosen to be in the town of Mariposa. The post-production team professor said he will help introduce it."

Lily leaned into Chen Yiming's ear and whispered, "Mariposa was the undercover who suggested it. Because it is his hometown, we thought it would be great to have a local gangster. Who would have thought that later..."

Chen Yiming nodded toward Lily, and then continued to look at Xiangrui, "It seems that it's not just a script problem. Even if I come up with a new script right now, I won't be able to film it according to your plan.

Xiangrui, you have to get used to being a solitary person first. This does not conflict with team spirit.

No matter how good you are when working with friends, you always have to be cautious. No matter how trustworthy you are, you can't trust yourself as much as you do.

Look at your plan. If the actors, location, and post-production are not guaranteed, then what else can you guarantee as a director?
Since your opponents are bullying you with their abundant resources, you should ask your friends for help!
Sister Shen is in Luo City. I'm going to Maple Leaf Guoping to mention it to her. Is this trouble for you a big deal? "

Looking at Xiangruimu's dumbfounded look, Chen Yiming knew that what happened this time had really hit her hard, and her outlook on life had almost been reshaped.

I worked as an assistant director for Chen Yiming for two times, and I saw Chen Yiming's command of the baton on the set. I really thought that the years were peaceful, and I was unprepared for the dangers outside.

In this way, it is a good thing to suffer a loss early.

Chen Yiming stretched out his hand and said, "Bring me the latest script for a look. By the way, did you show the undercover the script, or did you even pry the belt and paper away?"

It was Lily who whispered, "Not only the paper script, but also the electronic version."

Chen Yiming was speechless, this really sucked the fire out of the pot.

Xiangrui ran upstairs and brought down a folder, then tiptoed and put it down in front of Chen Yiming.

Chen Yiming leaned back and crossed his legs, opened the folder and began to read the script line by line.Compared with the previous version he had read, there were not many changes. There were only a few changes in the description of the scene, which should be changes adapted to local conditions after seeing the scene.

Chen Yiming closed the folder and read it carefully a second time from the beginning.

The main plot of the movie is the original short film, but in order to fill up the duration, a few branches and buttons were added inspired by Chen Yiming.

The story takes place in a small town in the west of Nut. Since last year, three female students have disappeared in the town. The police have never been able to find any clues, so rumors of a serial killer began to appear among the people.

But in fact, the townspeople only used it as a talking point, because the body of the missing student has never been found, and no one has ever seen a suspicious figure in the town.

And the declining town cannot retain young people. Who knows if the missing female student ran away from home and went to the big city to make a living.

When the story begins, Alice, a middle school student played by Lily, goes to school as usual. She is a well-behaved girl who plays the piano well and is a candidate for the queen of the town's middle school dance.

However, that afternoon, Alice's classmate and boyfriend was waiting for her at the school gate as usual, but she still didn't come out. Then he searched the school but couldn't find Alice.

In the evening, when her father returned home from get off work and met her boyfriend, the two realized that something might have happened to Alice.

After calling the police, the police in the town immediately began to investigate the whole town, but found nothing.

The town is not big, so everyone kept searching until the evening of the next day, and finally had to admit the fact that Alice was missing.

Now the whole town was alarmed, because everyone knew Alice and didn't believe that she would run away from home, so the rumor of a serial killer was mentioned again and again.

While her father and boyfriend were worried and the town residents were talking a lot, on the evening of the third day, Alice, who was in a coma, was found in an abandoned barn outside the town.

When her father and her boyfriend met Alice, she acted like a complete stranger. Not only could she not recognize her father and her boyfriend, she also said that her name was not Alice, but Ashley, and that she was a native of Los Angeles.

The two men had no choice but to transfer from general surgery to psychiatry. After the town's only psychiatrist, Gro, examined Alice, he determined that Alice had a memory disorder caused by physical and mental stimulation.

This is the result of the body's self-protection mechanism. Whether it is a second personality or not remains to be seen.

Ashley was not sick or injured, and there was not much the hospital could do, so her father had no choice but to take her home to rest.

Ashley has always said that she is not Alice, but in the eyes of the two men, she is clearly Alice, even the old scars on the outside of her thighs are exactly the same.

Facing the girl whose temperament changed drastically, the two men were helpless. The boyfriend came up with an idea to go to the school piano room to play piano tomorrow and use the body's muscle memory to stimulate the brain.

The next day, her father went to work and her boyfriend came to pick him up. Ashley opened the wardrobe in the bedroom and was surprised to find that the clothes inside were all bright red and no other colors at all.

Who would only wear one color of clothes?
The ignorant Ashley picked up a skirt and put it on. Then she was even more surprised. The skirt not only had sleeves, but also had gloves at the end of the sleeves. Why was it so tightly wrapped?

After changing her clothes and going downstairs, her nominal boyfriend had no strange expression on his face and turned a blind eye to her weird outfit.

Ashley followed her boyfriend to the piano room of the school and met Roger, the music teacher. He was very concerned about his "loved disciple" and greeted him with a smile. After hearing his intention, he readily gave up his seat. piano bench.

Ashley was embarrassed and said that she couldn't play the piano and knew nothing about it. The two men left the room empathetically, hoping that the girl could relax when she was alone.

Ashley becomes increasingly confused about the situation. It seems that everyone is normal except herself.

She vented her frustration on the keys and pressed them randomly with both hands.

However, something happened that surprised her even more. The left hand wearing a red glove seemed to have its own soul, wandering freely on the black and white keys, and beautiful notes and melodies wandered in the piano room.

The door was pushed open, and two men rushed in happily while calling "Alice". The boyfriend held the girl's hands like treasures and asked her if she had recovered her memory.

Ashley herself was confused. Could it be that she was really not Ashley, but Alice?
So who is Ashley, and where did this memory come from?

She couldn't accept that she became a stranger, so she strongly asked her boyfriend to drive to Ashley's home in Los Angeles.

The boyfriend couldn't win over the girl, so he had to drive straight to Los Angeles. The town is not far from Los Angeles, about an hour's drive.

Ashley guided her boyfriend to the home she remembered. After knocking on the door, the owner who came out was completely unknown to Ashley.

She walked around the neighborhood unbelievingly and found that none of her original neighbors knew her.

Ashley's mentality collapsed. She couldn't accept this fact. She pointed at the strange man living in her house and asked familiar neighbors who he was and where her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Graham, had gone.

The neighbors all agreed that the strange man had lived in that house since he was born. His surname was Jefferson, so it was not the Graham family there.

The girl repeated to her boyfriend over and over again, "My name is Ashley Graham, I grew up here, really!"

Although her boyfriend kept nodding in agreement and called her Ashley, the girl knew that her boyfriend didn't believe her at all.
