Chapter 22 hostel

Really evil capitalist!

Su Yan didn’t reply to Bai Xingfan’s message, and angrily quit WeChat. Bai Xingfan did not reply to her message again, and the gods were hidden on the other side of the ocean.

Two weeks passed in a hurry, and in the middle of May, it was time for Su Yan to join the team.

The filming cycle of the costume drama “Looking at the Moon in the West Building” is three months, which means that she has to live in the film and television city in the original Tang City for three whole months, so before leaving home, she packed up many daily necessities and stuffed It was full of a 28-inch suitcase plus a travel bag, but she didn’t stuff her laptop into the suitcase. After all, it was a guy who was eating and needed to keep it properly, so she chose to carry the computer on her back.

She can’t drive, so she can only take the high-speed rail to Yuantang City, and then take a taxi or transfer to the special bus to the Studio City.

Before, she had made an appointment with the assistant director to meet at the East Gate of the Studio City at 5:00 pm on May 15, and then the assistant would lead her to the hotel where the crew lived.

In order to avoid the possibility of being late, Su Yan went out after lunch, arrived at the agreed place at 4:30, and then sent a WeChat message to the assistant director, informing him that she had arrived, but the assistant was late. Did not reply to her.

The weather was hot, and there was no shade around to cool off. She stood in the sun and waited for a while, but the heat was unbearable, so she dragged her suitcase and found a milk tea shop nearby. Who knows, she sat in the shop for a while. An hour later, the cup of milk tea was almost finished, and the assistant still did not reply to her.

Su Yan had to send him another message: “Hello Teacher Yang, I have arrived at the east gate, where are you now?”

This time, the assistant surnamed Yang finally replied: “I’m busy, what are you urging?”

Su Yan was very angry, but she didn’t have a good chance of having a seizure. After all, she was away from home and just arrived here, so she should try her best not to cause trouble; not to mention that she is not a big screenwriter who has the right to speak, she is just a humble worker, if you offend casually Assistant director, the follow-up work will definitely be difficult, so she can only bear it.

Gritting her teeth, she reluctantly replied, “Sorry, I didn’t know you were busy.”

The assistant director played the game of “I won’t reply to you” with her again, and kept her waiting in the milk tea shop for an hour and a half. It wasn’t until 6:30 pm that he sent her a WeChat message: “I Find you now.”

Su Yan’s temper has been worn away. After receiving the news, she sighed helplessly, then pulled her suitcase and left the milk tea shop.

After that, she waited outside the east gate for more than ten minutes before the assistant surnamed Yang arrived late. The first sentence she made after seeing Su Yan was not to express her apology for being late, but: “Why did you bring So many things?” When he said this, the two messy thick eyebrows on his browbones were still frowning tightly, and his expression was full of condemnation and dissatisfaction.

Su Yan had already rolled her eyes to the sky in her heart, but her face was pleasant and she replied politely, “I’m working with the screenwriter and I have to live in the crew, so I have a lot of personal belongings.”

However, this assistant surnamed Yang became more and more arrogant, as if his position was not a junior assistant, but a major director, and he began to train people: “Are you here to work or to enjoy? How big do you think you are? You don’t have as much stuff with you!”

The wrist is much harder to serve than me – Su Yan thought unconvincingly in her heart, but her mouth was full of sincerity: “Yes, your lesson is right, I will pay attention next time.”

Assistant Yang was satisfied and waved his hand: “Come with me.”

“Oh.” Su Yan immediately followed with her suitcase.

Nowadays, this film and television city is also one of the popular tourist attractions in the former Tang City, so there are many places to stay in the city, ranging from high-end five-star hotels to small guesthouses and hotels. Su Yan originally thought that the accommodation assigned by the crew must be in the film and television city, but who knew that the assistant surnamed Yang did not lead her into the city, but walked south along the street outside the east gate.

Su Yan took a few steps with her suitcase, barely keeping up with the assistant’s rapid pace: “Well, Mr. Yang, aren’t our crew members staying in the Studio City?”

The assistant surnamed Yang stopped immediately and stared at Su Yan speechlessly: “What do you think? The room inside is so expensive, is it for someone like you? Are you worthy?”

Su Yan: “…”

There are people in all walks of life who say this, but the entertainment industry is definitely the most obvious place, as if it is the epitome of the feudal dynasty.

Although it is said that all people are created equal, but in the entertainment industry, people are divided into three, six, nine, and nine. the kind of people.

Su Yan has also been in this industry for two or three years, so she knows in her heart that she is now a low-class person, a little guy in the crew, so she doesn’t deserve to be valued and respected, and she doesn’t deserve to have a set in the film and television city. Staying in a room, don’t even deserve to ask questions.

The assistant surnamed Yang didn’t even give her a chance to speak again. After saying the last “what”, he glanced at her disdainfully, and then stepped forward again, leading the way in a rush to reincarnate.

Su Yan looked at the assistant’s short back, gritted her teeth hard, swallowed the bad breath in her heart, and then pulled up the suitcase again, desperately chasing the assistant’s footsteps, never letting herself be left alone.

It’s not that she didn’t think about the theory with that surnamed Yang, or that she didn’t think about quarreling with him until she was relieved, but this thought only flashed in her mind for a moment and was suppressed by reality – a moment of success Talking fast doesn’t prove how amazing she is, but it will offend people who shouldn’t be offended, which is not good for her career and future, and for a young screenwriter like her, it is a great learning from the group. The opportunity must not be lost and it will never come again. She can’t screw up this rare opportunity because of this little grievance – so, she chose to endure.

With a reincarnation-like footstep, after walking for nearly half an hour, the assistant surnamed Yang stopped in front of a hotel with a simple name on a remote side street, raised his finger and pointed to the hanging on the door. Strip-shaped transparent plastic curtain: “It’s here.” Then he took out a key from his pocket, “Take it, go in by yourself, I have to leave beforehand, by the way, I will join the group at nine o’clock tomorrow morning, don’t be late, be late deduct money.”

As soon as Su Yan took the key, Assistant Yang hurriedly walked on the road where he came from. It seemed that he was in a hurry, and he didn’t know how busy he was.

Su Yan immediately let go of her suitcase, trotted after a few steps, and hurriedly asked, “Mr. Yang, do all our crew live in this hotel?”

The surnamed Yang had to stop and sighed, still not giving her a good look: “What do you think? Can a big star live in the same place as you? Who are they? Who are you? ?”

“That’s not what I meant.” Su Yan explained while holding back her temper, “I want to ask if anyone else in our crew lives here?”

Assistant Yang: “There are a few field workers and group performances.”

Su Yan: “…”

This shows how low the status of her screenwriter is in the director’s heart. If it weren’t for Teacher Li’s face, that is, the big screenwriter who recommended her to join the group, the director probably wouldn’t let her join the group.

But now even if she joins the group, status is dispensable.

“Are you still doing anything?” the surnamed Yang asked angrily.

Su Yan immediately asked, “Do I have a room by myself or do I?”

The surnamed Yang said, “Don’t worry about this. In a single room, Director Wu also specifically instructed to give you an independent creative environment.”

Su Yan: “…”

Oh, it’s so sweet.

The surnamed Yang chokes her again, “Don’t always feel like the crew treats you thanks to you, you deserve whatever treatment you are.” He didn’t give her a chance to refute, and asked repeatedly, “Is it alright this time?”

Su Yan shook her head aggrievedly: “No more.”

The surnamed Yang turned around and left, Su Yan rolled her eyes at his back, then looked down at the key in her hand.

This key is really simple, so simple that it doesn’t even have a key ring. Instead, it uses a yellow rubber band to connect the key and the house card. The card is not big, rectangular, made of a transparent plastic shell, and the surface has been slightly yellowed. , which contained a white note with three numbers written in a blue ballpoint pen: 306.

Su Yan sighed deeply, feeling a little despair in her heart—a glimpse of the leopard, just looking at the configuration of this key, it is not difficult to guess how simple the room is.

Why don’t you pay for the house yourself? This thought only flashed in Su Yan’s mind for a moment, and then it was suppressed by reality. If it spread to the director’s ears, she would definitely feel that she had a lot of personnel, and it would not be good to affect Teacher Li’s credibility. .

Just keep on enduring.

In this line of business, you can’t stand it.

Su Yan looked up at the simple hotel in front of her, gritted her teeth again, and dragged her suitcase into the hotel door.

After opening the transparent plastic curtain, the first thing that catches the eye is a counter painted with yellow paint. Behind the counter sits a middle-aged woman with curly hair, wearing a khaki polka-dot skirt, smashing sunflower seeds. Watching a TV show on a mobile phone without headphones, the voices of the people in the play were so loud that Su Yan could hear them clearly while standing at the door.

Feeling that someone came in, the woman raised her eyelids lazily: “Is it from the crew?”

Su Yan: “From the crew, 306.”

The woman dropped her eyelids again and pushed her chin toward the hotel: “Where are the stairs.”

“Oh.” Seeing this, this woman wouldn’t help her carry her luggage, so Su Yan didn’t plan to ask her for help. She dragged her suitcase and walked towards the stairs.

With a twenty-eight-inch suitcase and a heavy travel bag, she struggled to move things up to the third floor, sweating and panting from exhaustion.

After standing at the head of the stairs for a while, she began to drag her suitcase to find her room in the corridor.

Before opening the door, she took a deep breath and turned the key. Although she was mentally prepared, the moment she turned on the light, she was still shocked by the scene in the room – there were no windows in the room , the wall is damp and yellow, and several places have fallen off, and there is even green mold in a corner of the house; the cement floor has several cracks, and two 1.2-meter-wide single beds are against the wall. It was placed on both sides of the room, with a wooden bedside table in the middle. The sheets were originally white, but in the passing of time, they had turned yellow and had a musty smell. Opposite the bed was the bathroom separated by frosted glass. There was a simple folding table in front of the wall, and a blue plastic chair in front of the table.

Su Yan stood in the doorway for a long time before accepting the reality in despair.

After dragging her luggage into the room, she went out again. After leaving the hotel, she found a small supermarket nearby and bought a bunch of cleaning tools, detergents, and disinfectant. After returning to the room again, start cleaning, mainly cleaning the bed, after all, it is the place to sleep at night,

She was going to sleep on the bed facing the table, so she lifted up all the pillows and bedding on that bed and stacked them on the other bed, then opened the suitcase, took out her sleeping bag, and spread it on the other bed. That bare bed.

After tidying up the bed, she went to tidy up the bathroom, carefully cleaned the sink and toilet, and then put the hand sanitizer next to the sink, and put a disposable seat cushion on the toilet.

Although I still feel a little nervous in my heart, I can live it anyway, but it is not very pleasant.

When she was away from home, the accommodation environment affected her mood very much, so she didn’t sleep well that night. She woke up early the next day and left the hotel before 7:30. She had breakfast and then walked to the hotel. Film City.

From 8:00 to 8:30, I finally reached the east gate of the film and television city, and then from 8:30 to 8:50, I walked to the studio.

On the first day of filming, the entire crew was not late, and the film started on time at nine o’clock.

The first day of filming went smoothly, neither the actor nor the director expressed any intention to change the script, so Su Yan had the illusion that everything was going to be fine, until the next morning, the second girl joined the group, and Yes, bring your own screenwriter into the group.
