Chapter 34 The War of the Ordinary People

What?

When they heard Ramo's words, the other three people at the dining table were stunned. Laru and Beli looked at each other, so this handsome Asian guy was not a passerby, and he had planned to meet him long ago?

Willis looked at the eldest daughter and the boy, and the two deep nasolabial folds grinned with a stronger smile: "Is that true? But I still can't sign and take photos for you, otherwise it will be unfair to other customers here." He said and put his phone aside.

"Yes, I can understand." Ye Weiyi smiled and said silently: Sheriff, I don't want any hell signing and taking photos. What I want is an opportunity.

Seeing that the waiter had not served the meal, Willis seemed not angry either. The frowning just now should not be a worry. He breathed a sigh of relief, quickly analyzed the current situation, and smiled as he followed the manuscript: "It is enough to see you with your own eyes. Of course, it is better to talk to you about movies. I love movies. I really want to thank Ramo for his help this time. She is a kind and kind person."

Ramo drank the coffee before the meal expressionlessly, and said with his eyes: "You have finished introducing yourself, don't retreat? Don't forget, this old guy has a big temper."

"Young people like movies, which is great." Willis still had the same smile, without an impatient look.

Ye Wei is not the kind of ungrateful man who is ungrateful. The man in front of him is a great actor, and his true thoughts will not be easily put on his face.

Willis has said three words, it’s almost time to step back, and after that…

Ye Wei continued to smile and said with a prepared sentence: "Mr. Willis, the feeling of seeing you with his own eyes is very different from watching you on the screen. It feels like a superhero is real, and his three adorable daughters."

"Haha!" Willis laughed, looking very happy. I don't know if it's really useful, but he looked at his daughters, "Watching them grow up, I feel old."

"Yes, you old monster..." Ramo held his chin on the dining table with one hand and rolled his eyes. What this old guy didn't like the most was that others said he was old, and he thought it was ridiculous.

"No, not at all." Ye Wei smiled complimentally, not so stupid as to say "yes".

"Hey, how old are you?" The second lady Laru suddenly asked.

This really gave Ye Wei a chance to continue speaking, but there are pros and cons. The bad thing is that Willis will immediately know his real age, younger than his appearance. But he still has to answer truthfully: "Aged 15, 16 in February next year."

"Oh, you don't look like it." Laru said, looking at the handsome Asian guy a few more times. Willis didn't care, his expression remained unchanged.

Miss Three Bellie suddenly asked: "What school do you come from?" Ye Wei replied: "Harvard-West Lake, ninth grader." After all, Bellie is only 9 years old, so she can do whatever she wants when asked: "Why don't you go to Wildwood School? The one Ramo studied."

Ye Wei suddenly felt a sudden heart. This question must be answered to make everyone happy, because Harvard West Lake is much stricter than Wildwood. If you don’t answer well, it will become Willis’s goddaughter, Lamo is stupid, divorced, family ignores children, and bad father...

Cold sweat broke out on the back of his head, and he couldn't hesitate, otherwise he wouldn't seem sincere enough...

Almost in an instant, thousands of thoughts flashed, and he smiled and said, "It's just because of the color preferences that Chinese people like red, and I'm no exception. The school colors of Harvard-West Lake are red and black, and Wildwood is green."

"Oh, so you are Chinese." Beli had no idea that he almost stabbed the other party, and was still asking: "Is China on the other side of the earth? You can dig a passage."

"Yes." Ye Wei nodded, "I am a third-generation Chinese immigrant and was born in Los Angeles."

"Which friend are you?" At this time, Lalu asked again, asking Ramo, curious: "Harvard-West Lake?" Ramo said: "Lily Collins." Lalu said: "Yes, she is from Harvard-West Lake, are you good friends with her?" This time he asked Ye Wei.

"Well, I asked her for help. We and some other classmates were working on a movie project." Ye Wei smiled again, and had found that he was trapped in the situation of being asked various questions by two little girls. This was not very good. Who knows what else they would ask...

"Actually, how about Harvard-West Lake? I was wondering if I should read it in middle school?" Sure enough, Lalu asked again.

Because this issue is related to the education of his second daughter, Willis also became interested and looked at Ye Wei, wanting to hear how he evaluated his school.

Another dangerous problem! Ye Wei couldn't think too much, and felt like he was walking on the thin ice. He laughed and said, "It's great. Most students and parents think that it is the best school in the universe. I think they are a little crazy, but it is indeed one of the best middle schools. The most interesting thing is that you can eat food from all over the world in the cafeteria."

"Cool." Laru asked casually and didn't continue.

Taking advantage of this time, they did not let them ask anything more. Ye Wei knew that he should leave, so he said, "Then I won't bother you now. I wish you a happy breakfast."

"Okay." Willis nodded with a smile, and the three Ramo sisters did not try to keep them.

Ye Wei turned around and walked towards the door. He took a few steps and took a long breath, wondering if he had messed up.

If he scored 10 points, he gave himself 6 points because although Willis was not impatient, he didn't say a word about the movie. His image was just a 15-year-old ninth-grade student, a fan who wanted to meet his idol, and he was gone.

Under the eyes of some customers, Ye Wei returned to the fence on the steps, guarding this must-pass way, looking at Willis and the other four from time to time, paying attention to their emotional changes.

At the same time, the waiter served Willis and the other four in one after another, including fresh crab cakes, fried steak, eggs, etc. They started to eat and chat while eating.

After a while, Lalu suddenly saw something out of the corner of her eyes and said in surprise: "It's so strange, he hasn't left yet, that Asian boy." Lamo also looked at the door and said: "He wants to say a few words to the old guy later." Belly also turned his head and looked, "Where? Where?"

Willis had to pay attention now and his brows frowned slightly.

"Why did he hold a briefcase?" Lalu had new doubts. Ramo responded while cutting the steak, "Who knows." Lalu said funnyly: "He stood there like a poor puppy." Ramo chewed the steak and said vaguely: "He liked it himself."

"Why should I ask the waiter to let him go away?" Willis said when he saw that his daughters were bothered by this.

"Yes!" Belly nodded, although she had to twist most of her body before she could see Ye Wei.

"Servant!" Willis called out immediately.

Soon, the male waiter left Willis's dining table and walked towards the puzzled Ye Wei, and politely issued an expulsion order: "Sir, you are standing here, which has affected others' meals. Mr. Willis said, please walk away."

"Oh, of course!" Ye Wei couldn't help but change his color slightly, his heart was blocked, and it was a little messed up, which made them dissatisfied.

He quickly walked down the steps with his coffee and briefcase, and then another waitress shouted, "Wait, sir, you haven't taken your toast."

"OK, OK, give it to me." Ye Wei saw the waitress behind him walking towards him holding a plate containing three or four slices of toast, but he really had no hands to hold it, so he had to put down the coffee first, take a few pieces of toast in his mouth, then pick up the coffee, and then walk out of the restaurant.

"Haha, he's so funny!" Belly over there laughed at his embarrassed look, "His mouth is so wide open, haha!"

Ramo and Laru really felt a little uncomfortable, watching a peer being so down and driven away by them.

Willis smiled and said, "Don't worry about him, let's have breakfast. In a few days of Thanksgiving holiday, where are we going to travel? It's up to you to decide."

On the other hand, Ye Wei hurriedly left the restaurant fence and came to the parking space opposite. He ate the toast into his stomach. He swallowed it so hard that he patted his back a few times, drank all the coffee in one sip, threw the coffee cup into the nearby trash can, coughed, and looked at the table far away that shared the joy of family.

I need a chance...I need a chance...

Ye Wei looked up slightly at the blue sky. Today, not to mention these things in his dreams, this is his first experience, so humble and so cautious.

Although the scene seemed quite friendly, in fact, he was nothing. If a wrong sentence affected his vision, the big shots immediately turned against each other.

No one said it was easy... Ye Wei thought about his family, his friends in the Dream Chasing Alliance, and Lily... He silently said in his heart: "Wei, welcome to the real world! But nothing, this is nothing, everyone, everything will be fine."

He took out his cell phone and sent a text message to Lily: "Everything goes well for the time being! I haven't told you about the script yet. I'll tell you when they finish their meal. I'll tell you the result if there is any result."

Lily replied with a text message in almost ten seconds: "Come on, just work hard. :-)"

Ye Wei looked at it and smiled, Girl, your smile is so beautiful.

Half an hour gradually passed, and while waiting, time came to 8:30.

Despite the distance, Ye Wei kept paying attention to the target dining table. At this time, he saw Willis calling a waiter, and he should have to pay. He coughed a few times and cleared his throat, then walked back quickly. Task: In the next five minutes, Willis will be interested in "The Little Beauty of Sunshine", and then handed the script to him and asked him to take it away!

Back at the restaurant steps and seeing the waiter leaving, Ye Wei immediately stepped forward and smiled at the four people who had stood up and left, "Hello, Miss, you guys, it's me again! Ye Wei."

"Oh, is there anything else?" Willis looked at him, and the three girls glanced at him, and Belly couldn't help laughing: "You were so funny just now."

Ye Wei nodded to the little girl and said to her father: "This time, in addition to meeting my idol, I also have a script that I hope to read for you."

His speaking speed is very fast, but it can be heard clearly by others: "It is called "The Little Beauty of Sunshine". It is a commercial film in a family highway comedy, black humor, and literary story. It has been written for more than three years and has been revised 30 drafts. It was a project of Focus Film. A few days ago, Focus transferred it to the Dream Chasing Alliance Film Company founded by me."

"Oh?" Willis seemed to be listening as he walked out, but his expression was faint. I wonder if he was really listening.

Ye Wei followed him, blocking other customers who wanted to pick up superstars, and not giving the three girls a chance to interrupt, and continued: "This is a crazy story: a failed and weird middle-class family, participating in a children's beauty pageant, was in a mess."

This is a summary of the sentence he carefully designed last night. He chose Crazy, Fail, Freak, and General-Turmoil, which are contradictory and conflicting words. They are all very common, but when they are put together with middle-class families, they have the power of situation.

The outline leads to the introduction, the introduction leads to the outline, and the outline leads to the script itself, from one minute to ten minutes, from ten minutes to an hour, and then to a formal meeting. This is "elevator lobbying".

"What's interesting?" Willis finally responded to a sentence with content, but not interested, but questioning.

Ye Wei suddenly had cold sweat all over his body. In fact, all the outlines of the sentence were very pale. Sometimes big people would be interested, sometimes not, it depends largely on their mood at that time. They were both Willis. Maybe they would be excited when they heard this outline tomorrow, but they would feel that it was garbage the day after tomorrow.

And now, big guys don’t like this synopsis!

But every precious second cannot be wasted! He could not think too much, but could only continue lobbying with his emotions: "The whole script is full of fun, the drug-absorbing grandpa will die halfway, and the little girl who has been preparing for the beauty pageant has been dancing adult dance on stage, and there are others, all her dreams are shattered.

But it is not a tragedy, it is black humor. The audience will smile and watch their failures, but their hearts are full of feelings. In the end, they did not win the game, but understood the true meaning of life. That is, life is not just about success and failure, and public life is never as important as private life. Family members always love each other."

"Oh good, it's quite meaningful." Willis seemed to praise him, and had already arrived at the Hummer, took out the key and pressed it. With a sound of the car, the door was unlocked... He said again: "Give me the script, I will read it when I have time."

Oops! Ye Wei couldn't help but frown, knowing that the other party had no interest at all, and it was useless to give the script to him. 99% were taken back and threw it into the pile of scripts to be read, or to the script reader assistant, and he would completely forget about it in a few days.

The reality always happens not as planned. From the first sentence he lobbies to now, less than two minutes, how can there be five minutes? He originally wanted to use the script to present a song with a harmonica to increase the atmosphere and show sincerity, because Willis has been playing the blues band since he was young and has released albums and records. He is a harmonica player.

In addition, the script itself is beautifully packaged, with a short-core leaf cigar on the cover, which is one of the tobacco and alcohol left by grandpa. Willis likes to smoke short-core leaf cigars. This cigar will make the 120-page paper unique and sincere.

But now none of these are useful, and the first step is to mess it up, and Willis has no interest in this script.

At this time, the rear door of the Hummer was opened, and Laru and Belly sat in; the front door was also opened, Lamo took the co-pilot, and Willis turned over to the driver's seat door...

Ye Wei stood by the car and forgot to breathe. He either immediately gave the script and his business card, or said something to change the result...

What to say? What to say!?

Everything seemed to pause. Willis approached the car door in a slow motion. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind like a crisscrossing lightning. The light of his eyes suddenly noticed Ramo, Laru, and Belle...

Suddenly, he caught one of the thoughts: Willis is a father with three daughters, and his three daughters are right next to him!

"Mr. Willis! Please imagine a movie scene where you and your family finally arrived at the beauty pageant venue, but they were a little late. The registration officer was a mean old woman, who refused your registration. You looked at your disappointed daughter, and although you were extremely angry, you knelt down for the old woman and begged her to give your daughter a chance! How about this scene? This is the scene in "The Little Beauty of Sunshine"!"
Chapter completed!
