- Chapter 84 - Xu Xiuwen: Your kidneys are not good too?
Xu Xiuwen continued, “You probably haven’t read my book yet. We will communicate after you have read it. Let me talk about my current situation first. Apart from this novel and more than one million, I have nothing else. It’s all about starting from scratch.”
Hang Fei said, “It doesn’t matter. If I’m ready to shoot, I can ask my friends for photography, art, costumes, makeup, and props. They are also from our school and can form a team at any time. Actors and venues are a problem.”
Xu Xiuwen said, “As for the venue, since the novel is a campus story, I personally hope it will be placed at Jiaotong University.”
“The scenery of Jiaotong University is nice. It’s good to take photos there. But you have to apply for various procedures from the school. This is up to you.”
“As for actors…” Hang Fei hesitated.
Because Xu Xiuwen said that he only had a total of more than 1 million, and it was hard to say whether the filming funds would be sufficient.
Huang Shi interjected, “Acting is easy. We have so many students in our school. We can recruit a group of people at random. It’s the important roles such as male and female protagonists that needs to be considered now. Brother Xiuwen, don’t you plan to invite famous people to play?”
Xu Xiuwen shook his head, “It’s not that I don’t want to invite them, it’s just that I can’t afford it. And probably even the slightly famous people will look down on our small team.”
At this time, Hang Fei had not actually agreed to take on the drama. Xu Xiuwen had not yet seen Hang Fei’s level, and had not yet fully decided to let him be the director.
But as soon as Xu Xiuwen said “we are a small team”, Huang Shi and Hang Fei instantly felt that they were their own people and that the core of the crew had been established.
Hang Fei thought for a while and said, “Then we will use all new people. There are not many other people in our school, but there are many people who want to act, and there are also many people who are willing to film without money. If we find more people like this, we can save a lot. What about the funds? By the way, forget about the remuneration, but you have to take care of the lunch boxes, otherwise it will be difficult to recruit people.”
Xu Xiuwen smiled, “The lunch boxes must be enough. I’m not a cold-blooded capitalist.”
Huang Shi and Hang Fei also laughed when they heard this.
Three older boys looked at each other and laughed in the cafe outside the Art Institute.
The atmosphere became relaxed and cheerful.
Afterwards, the three discussed some issues and reached a preliminary agreement.
Before leaving, Hang Fei handed Xu Xiuwen a CD, saying that it was a short literary film he had shot in his junior year.
Xu Xiuwen also told him to go to Jinjiang to read his novels.
The two agreed to continue meeting here tomorrow afternoon and decide whether to cooperate then.
After solving the matter, Xu Xiuwen was in a good mood, but thinking about Cheng Lu made him a little bored.
He thought for a few seconds, then took out his cell phone and dialed Song Siyu’s number.
The call lasted for about half a minute before Song Siyu answered the phone.
“Hey, Xu Xiuwen, don’t you know it’s class time now? Are you calling to harm me?” Song Siyu’s tone was not good as soon as she came up.
Xu Xiuwen didn’t care and explained, “I have something to ask you.”
“What’s the matter?” Song Siyu felt strange that Xu Xiuwen didn’t ask Xiao Youran for information?
“Do you know Cheng Lu? I heard she is in your major?”
Cheng Lu?
Song Siyu was stunned.
Why did Xu Xiuwen ask her about Cheng Lu? She was full of questions.
“Why are you asking about Cheng Lu? You want to chase someone because you see her beauty? What would you do about Youran?”
Xu Xiuwen was startled by Song Siyu’s words.
Could Song Siyu hear his heart?
“Why don’t you say anything? Did I tell you the truth?”
Song Siyu also said casually. In her opinion, Xu Xiuwen and Xiao Youran were a couple. They were childhood sweethearts and had a deep relationship.
As for Cheng Lu?
Although she was good-looking, Song Siyu didn’t think Xu Xiuwen would be interested in Cheng Lu.
That girl is so cold!
It hasn’t been long time since the school started, and you can imagine how cold she is to be nicknamed “Iceberg” by her classmates.
Xu Xiuwen calmed down and explained, “This morning, 6 morning exercise cards were collected from our dormitory. Fortunately, Cheng Lu was merciful and did not hand over the morning exercise cards. So I just thought of treating her to a meal. I had no other intention. I heard that she majored in marketing. I thought that our beauty Song also majored in this field, so I asked you.”
Song Siyu listened to his explanation without any doubt.
Especially when she heard the familiar words beauty Song, she couldn’t help but giggle, “Then why don’t you call Youran? She also knows Cheng Lu.”
Without waiting for Xu Xiuwen to answer, Song Siyu asked him again, “Oh, are you afraid that Youran will be jealous? Haha, yes, Youran is indeed a jealous person.”
Song Siyu smiled for a while and said, “You are really lucky. By coincidence, the fourth member of our dormitory is, do you know who it is?”
Hearing this tone, Xu Xiuwen vaguely guessed something.
“Cheng Lu?” Xu Xiuwen asked tentatively.
“Yes, Cheng Lu is the fourth member of our dormitory, no surprise.”
Xu Xiuwen couldn’t help but smile bitterly when he heard this.
What he was most worried about happened.
After learning that Cheng Lu was a marketing major in the morning, he thought of dormitory 301 where Xiao Youran was.
You must know that in dormitory 301, Xiao Youran, Song Siyu, and An Shishi are all school beauties. Xu Xiuwen also thought about whether the people in the dormitory have a collecting habit and like to gather beauties in the same dormitory.
If this is the case, then the probability that Cheng Lu will be assigned to dormitory 301 is too high!
When he thinks of his Bai Yueguang and his childhood sweetheart in the same dormitory!
Xu Xiuwen was speechless.
Just like now, even though he had guessed this possibility, he was still speechless when he heard Song Siyu say it.
“Hey, are you talking?”
“What do you want me to say?”
“Shouldn’t you be excited to know that Cheng Lu belongs to our dormitory? Why is your voice so low?”
Xu Xiuwen made an excuse, “Maybe because I was drunk and didn’t sleep last night.”
“No wonder, Youran was still saying this morning why you didn’t send her a text message. Did you know that she was waiting for your text message last night? I got up at 3 o’clock to go to the toilet, but she wasn’t asleep yet.”
Xu Xiuwen was very surprised to hear that Xiao Youran waited for his text message until 3 o’clock in the middle of the night.
He thought he knew Xiao Youran very well.
Xiao Youran is a very proud girl.
Waiting until 3 o’clock in the night for a boy’s text message is not something she can do.
He didn’t want to talk about this topic, so he deliberately smiled and joked, “Beauty Song still has the habit of going to the toilet in the middle of the night? I heard that people who like to go to the toilet in the middle of the night usually have bad kidneys. Your kidneys are not good too?”
Song Siyu became angry when she heard this, “Xu Xiuwen, I just drank too much water yesterday, you bastard, your kidneys are not good.”
“Haha, you go to class, I’ll hang up first.” Xu Xiuwen hung up the phone after saying that.
Song Siyu looked at the hung up phone and said to herself, “It’s so disgusting to tell a girl that her kidneys are not good.”
She put her phone away and turned back to the classroom.
When Xu Xiuwen called just now, she was in class and had to run outside the classroom in order to answer the phone.
