I, the traveler, will guide me directly in the Mi Universe.

After that, at seven o'clock, my father and I ran to eat again (I had two sausages and a meat bun for breakfast, but my father didn't eat anything). We had just arrived home and were very tired.

But something happened again, and my father went back to the hospital, while I typed these words in front of the computer.

Really, I was very scared, afraid that I would lose my mother so early. She was only 52 years old this year. Later, the doctor called me and said that she might have myocardial infarction, but it might also be just abnormal heart indicators caused by simple heart failure. , the specific details need to be reviewed and consulted by experts.

And after typing this text, I will be completely burned out and run to catch up on my sleep. Today’s update will definitely not be possible. I will go to the hospital to take care of my mother during the day tomorrow. By then, I should be free to use my mobile phone. Code the words, I hope everyone will be patient and wait.

Finally, I wish everyone a happy new year, good health and staying away from the hospital!

Chapter 97

When the key appeared in front of her eyes, Ying felt her heart tighten and even began to ache.

From the time Alicia proposed leaving, until this moment, Ying finally had the real feeling that the other party was really leaving.

However, the more times like this come, the more Yingbei feels a strange desire to win. She doesn't want to admit defeat, and she doesn't want Alicia to know her true feelings at the moment.

So, Ying used perhaps her most superb acting skills in her life, took the key from Alicia's hand, and said with a smile: "Actually, you don't have to give the key back to me. After all, if what happened last time happens again, You can just come to me to avoid it. But, as expected, it’s better for me to take it back, especially after meeting your agent and the others, it strengthened my belief."

"But, even if I don't have the key, can't I show up here again? Will you let a beautiful girl like me be locked out in the cold wind?"

Without waiting for a reply, Alicia changed the subject: "By the way, the good news I just told you is that Eden plans to sign you to the Golden Courtyard Studio. Remember to go to the studio tomorrow. Over there, implement the signing matters and some contract terms. If you don’t have a trusted lawyer friend to help check it, here is a business card. You can contact him to try."

With that said, Alicia put a business card into Ying's hand.

Ying lowered her head and scanned it casually, and saw the words Themis Firm, Ran Lawyer, etc.

"Alicia, you are so caring and thoughtful about my affairs, doesn't it make me even more reluctant to leave you?"

Just as Ying was thinking about this in her heart, she suddenly heard Alicia's voice: "Then, Ying, I'm leaving."

Alicia's voice seemed a little low at this time, as if it was filled with sadness about the upcoming separation, and also seemed to be carrying some scrutiny.

"Ah."

Ying still lowered her head and looked at the business card in her hand.

Then, the footsteps belonging to Alicia, the footsteps that she could recognize as soon as she heard them, did not appear from far to near this time, but from near to far away.

Just when the "click" sound of the door opened, Ying called out uncontrollably: "Alicia!"

The anxiety and complex emotions contained in her voice even made her tremble.

"Huh? What's the matter, Ying?"

Ying stopped when she heard the footsteps. She still didn't raise her head, but she could still see from her lowered vision that Alicia had indeed stopped at the door and responded to her call with an expectant voice.

What to expect?

Ying smiled bitterly.

It's a pity that even though she lost control of her emotions for some unknown reason just now, she regained her rationality and was destined to be unable to respond to this expectation.

Ying raised her head, as if looking at Alicia's overly beautiful face as usual, but in fact only she knew how greedily she wanted to carve the other person's image in her mind forever at this moment.

"Be careful on the road."

Ying had a slight smile on her face and spoke.

"Well, I will."

Alicia also had a faint smile on her face, and then there were footsteps again and the sound of the door being gently closed.

It was only at this moment that the security door completely blocked Ying's view of Alicia. Only then did she break away from her previous "acting skills" and act like anyone who had devoted herself to acting and then Just like after suddenly pulling away, Ying also fell into an emotional underestimation, and her whole person became visibly emo. The energy and energy brought by the smooth ending of the first season of "Honkai Academy" disappeared in this moment.

Really gone...

Ying leaned back and fell on the sofa, staring blankly at the white ceiling. Her whole body was emptied to the extreme, and she stayed there without saying a word until the color of the ceiling was gradually faded away. The setting sun shone red, and her eyes regained some of their shape. She suddenly realized that she had spent the entire day in this posture.

"Ying, Ying, how could you be so depraved? What percentage of your five small goals have been completed? Have you finished writing the script for the second episode of "Honkai Academy"? The complete setting and outline of the Honkai Series Have you sorted it all out? Have you designed the various Valkyrie armors that are suitable for the live-action film and television adaptation? Have you finished drawing the game characters prepared for Anti-Entropy Technology? If not, what qualifications do you have to be here to hurt the spring and autumn? ?! Why don’t you hurry up and move?!”

After muttering to himself, Ying suddenly felt like he was resurrected with full blood.

She no longer thought about Alicia's departure and devoted herself to her career.

But at the same time, she also ignored the ultimate goal of her struggle. Is it really just to pay off her debt?Or secretly cooperate with Anti-Entropy Technology to launch a game and give everyone some small next-generation action mobile games to shock everyone?

Of course, what's more important is that she ignored the fact that she didn't eat a drop of water or a drop of rice that day, and just devoted herself to selfless work.

After working until an unknown moment, Ying was awakened by extreme hunger in her belly, thirst in her mouth, and severe sleepiness.

Are you hungry? Do you want to make something to eat?

Forget it, I'm so sleepy and too lazy to cook. Just drink some water and just go to sleep. You won't be hungry when you fall asleep.

With this idea in mind, Ying ran to the water dispenser, picked up her cup, filled it with water, drank half full, and then walked to the bedroom.

When climbing onto the bed, Ying subconsciously left half of the bed vacant, but it was this move that made her frown.

"From now on, I'd better just sleep in the middle."

However, when Ying looked at the two pillows on the bed, after hesitating for a moment, he put his own on the bedside table, planning to clean it up when he woke up tomorrow, and put Alicia's used pillow next to it. Right in the middle of the bed.

This may be the only thing that still smells of Alicia in this bachelor apartment at this moment, which can remind her that the past two months are not a dream.

Wrapped in Alicia's remaining aura, Ying quickly fell asleep.

A night without dreams.

However, when Ying woke up the next day, she found that she, who was supposed to sleep in the middle of the bed, had slept on the left side of the bed again. She sighed: "It is said that 21 days can make a person develop a habit. It seems that it will take me longer to change the habits I have developed in the past two months.”

After that, Ying ran to the bathroom to wash up.

She didn't forget Alicia's last instruction yesterday. She had to go to the Golden Courtyard Studio later.

Chapter 98 Variety Show "Future Planning, Strange Life"

Just after nine o'clock in the morning, Ying rode a shared bicycle to the entrance of the Golden Courtyard Studio.

Well, without Alicia, there would naturally be no convenient private car as a means of transportation.

Fortunately, the sharing economy has just emerged and is at its peak. Shared bicycles of various brands can be seen everywhere on the road, so you don’t have to worry too much about the way you travel.

~

Golden Courtyard Studio is said to be a studio, but in fact it is not small in scale. It has rented a four-story office building and has over a thousand employees. It is said that half of them work for Eden alone.

As a global superstar across multiple fields, isn’t it normal to have a team of more than [-] million people?

After stepping out of the elevator and identifying herself at the front desk on the 15th floor, Ying was warmly greeted by an employee and walked in. She passed through the office area and went directly to the conference hall.

In the conference hall, Lawyer Ran, who had been contacted before departure, was already waiting here. Next to him was Lawyer Qiangwei.

Although the lawyer looked at Ying with a normal look, just like the normal look when seeing a client, Lawyer Qiangwei's eyes at this moment showed a little more scrutiny and curiosity.

Ying could probably guess the reason. After all, Alicia said that she and Qiangwei had known each other for a long time. Therefore, the other party had probably heard news about her from Alicia, and even knew that Alicia was with her. Stayed for more than two months.

Regarding the signing of the contract, she has been married for two generations and has not had much contact with legal aspects. She has only watched a few videos of teacher Luo Xiang and the second creation video of "Liyue Luo Xiang", so she is naturally Completely delegate power to Lawyer Lingran and Lawyer Qiangwei.

The two of them were indeed professional lawyers. It only took them 10 minutes to go through all the terms in the contract. After discovering that there were no traps, they began to explain it to Ying in layman's terms.

"Miss Ying, the contract period written in the contract is ten years. You are required to shoot or plan at least two film and television works every year, one of which is the Honkai Impact series. Until the series is completed, you will have five insurances, one housing fund and salary every month. Under the premise, the director's commission will also be paid for each work, and an appropriate proportion of the share will be given based on the final profit.

"If the ten-year contract has not expired, you have two ways to modify or terminate the contract. One is to pay ten times the liquidated damages. Since Miss Ying, your contract is Golden Courtyard Studio, which paid the equivalent of 5 million Yuan of money and resources are exchanged, so the liquidated damages are 50 billion.

"The second way is that Ms. Ying, the works you shot or planned have earned 5 million yuan for Golden Courtyard Studio before the contract ends. Then, Ms. Ying has the right to propose modifications to the contract or terminate the contract. .”

When she heard that the liquidated damages were actually 50 billion, Ying couldn't help but twitching at the corner of her mouth. With so much money, she wouldn't break the contract even if I beat her to death.

However, when he heard about the second way to modify or terminate the contract, the newly established image of Eden's black-hearted boss in Ying's mind suddenly collapsed.

Such generous conditions are not worthy of the friendship between her and Eden.

Just when Ying was about to nod and agree to sign the contract, lawyer Tingran continued: "By the way, Miss Ying, the contract also said that the studio has accepted a variety show for you, and you will be filming this afternoon. .”

fluorescent:"?"

"But, I am a director and a behind-the-scenes worker!"

Ying said this not to lawyer Ran, but to the employees of Golden Courtyard Studio sitting in the conference room.

Although she is quite confident in her appearance, Ying is still very self-aware of her sense of variety show. She has been a homebody before and after time travel, so where does her sense of variety show come from?

For a person like her, she should still be a director honestly. It's not impossible to appear in her own works on a whim, but she needs to take the stage route?It's better to spare her!

"Don't worry, director, this is not the kind of variety show that has no formality. I have a plan for this variety show here. As long as you sign this confidentiality agreement, you can take a look at the contents. Don't worry, this variety show will definitely suitable for you."

Hearing what the staff said, Ying's curiosity was aroused.

After thinking about it, she chose to sign the confidentiality agreement, and then took the variety show plan in her hand and read it.

However, the name of the variety show made Ying a little nervous.

"Future Planning, Fantasy Life"?

That small development activity built into the Honkai Impact 3 game?

However, when Ying opened the inner page and read it carefully, she found that it was not the case.

The activities in the game are an idol development variety show centered on one of the applicants, Fu Hua, but the project in Ying's hands is not like that.

This variety show is more like bringing together people from all walks of life in the entertainment industry, and then pairing up in pairs to have a cross-border experience with their partners.

For example, an actor and a singer are assigned to a team. In order to make the crossover smooth, the best choice is for the actor to ask the singer how to sing, and the singer to ask the actor how to act. After a week of preparation, Finally, show your own cross-border achievements.

The entire variety show does not have a competitive component. It just shows the audience whether the stars are a comedy or a tragedy after crossing over. At the same time, it also satisfies the desire of many viewers to experience another kind of life. Even if this is only pinned on the stars who participated in the filming of the show.

At this moment, Ying also understood why she was chosen to participate in this show. The reason was very simple. Directors who had been famous for a long time would definitely not come to participate if she was so good at playing, lest they cause embarrassment in the future. And there were too few successful young directors. , there are even fewer people who are as photogenic as Ying.

If this show must have a director, a screenwriter who has gained a certain reputation on the Internet as the director and screenwriter of "Honkai Academy" is indeed the best choice.

After thinking about it, I felt that there was nothing going on with this variety show. It would only take about a week to shoot, so it was time to change my mood.

However, before she nodded in agreement, she asked a question that she was extremely concerned about at the moment: "Can I know who my partner is in advance?"

The employee who handed Ying the project plan heard this and shook his head: "I'm sorry, Ying Director, because the partner meeting is also a special part of the program and requires guests to give the most authentic feedback, so I can't reveal the other details to you in advance. Information from a guest. However, when the recording of the program officially starts in the afternoon, everything will be revealed, right?"

Chapter 99 The Program Starts Recording

"Okay. Can I ask where the afternoon shooting location is?"

Ying knew that these employees were tight-lipped, so he asked another question.

The employee breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he did not continue to ask questions. At this moment, he replied happily: "Director, just go home and wait. When the time comes, people from the program team will come to find you and explain what will happen next." We actually don’t know much about the shooting plan.”

After getting the answer he wanted, Ying felt that he had no other questions, so he signed his name on the contract.

From this moment on, Ying officially became a member of Golden Garden Studio.

"Lawyer Ran, Lawyer Qiangwei, how much are the legal fees?"

Although I don't have much savings at present, I can still afford to pay for lawyer consultation fees.

However, the answers from Lawyer Ran and Qiangwei made Ying a little stunned.

"Miss Alicia's legal fees have been paid in advance."

Lawyer Ran waved his hand and explained, and Lawyer Qiangwei on the side also nodded in agreement.

"Alicia..."

Hearing this, Ying looked a little dazed, but she soon came to her senses, solemnly thanked the two of them, and then left the Golden Courtyard Studio.

She needed to go home and get ready, after all, the program team would be here this afternoon.

%

After returning home, Ying briefly cleaned the room. After all, she did hygiene every day and there was nothing special to tidy up.

In addition, she also took out her suitcase and packed it with some clothes, daily necessities, skin care products, etc. The filming for the next seven days would need to be carried out at the location arranged by the program team, so she naturally needed to bring some personal items with her. thing.

But for some reason, Ying felt particularly tired today. After only moving for a short while, she felt sleepy and went straight to bed to rest.

Before falling asleep, Mr. Ying felt that he seemed to have forgotten something extremely important.

However, she really didn't have the energy to think about it, so she stopped worrying about it.

Two hours later, Ying was awakened by the sound of the doorbell.

Hearing this voice, Ying knew that the person coming must be from the program team.

So, Ying shouted towards the door: "Come on, come on!" while going to the dressing table to tidy up her short blond hair that was a little messy from sleeping just now.

As for makeup?
