Chapter 82 Saving Private Ryan(1/2)

"Dad, mom, it's okay, don't worry about me. This change will not knock me down. It's just an ugly and fragile bubble that bursts. Just go and find a real fruit again. I can impress Willis and others! Anyway, I won't give up. This game is long and I will definitely win the final victory."

Shortly after returning home, Ye Wei told his parents about the major changes today. He had already calmed down and cheered up like "Anna", so he laughed, his expression and words were full of confidence.

Gu Qiao now understood why his son looked a little abnormal at noon; Ye Haogen also understood what Michelle said, "I seem to see that he is at the door."

Both the couple felt very uncomfortable, worried, angry, sad, depressed, and happy. They were the second most worried and concerned about Wei’s mood. He was only less than 16 years old, but he had to suffer such setbacks. He had to face such an ugly world of intrigue because they were incompetent...

"Son, don't put too much pressure on yourself." Ye Haogen sighed, "Now Dad has zero requirements for you, and you have exceeded my expectations too much." Gu Qiao nodded: "So too."

"Then how low are your expectations for me? Please!" Ye Wei spread his hands and laughed.

Although the son seemed to be fine, the two of them couldn't rest assured. They were just stubborn and had to carry everything themselves since childhood. When his grandfather was still alive, he could still ask someone to talk about it. Now...

Gu Qiao comforted: "If you have anything, just tell us, don't keep it in your heart. After all, we are adults and can give you a lot of advice. You don't like to tell us that you can also find Teacher Aishi, Teacher Capson and others, just don't face it alone. That's too unfair to you, too much."

"Thank you, mom, dad, in my heart, you are the best parents in the world!"

Ye Wei hugged them, then picked up Duoduo next to him who didn't understand what was going on, and smiled at her, "Brother only has C for this exam, so I'll get an A+ next time."

"Oh!" Duoduo opened her mouth round, and she understood it after saying this, not the first time! She would read that sentence, "Brother, no one is perfect."

"Yes, you're right! Even if I'm so handsome, I can't escape this law."

Ye Wei nodded with a smile, and his heart was warm. The one they loved was imperfect. He was a little naughty, a little aggressive, and a little lustful, but he was not a despicable villain, and he would never be!

...

It was around 2 a.m. in the UK, London, and Phil Collins was sleeping. He played rock almost all night long when he was young. Now he is old and he will die if he stays up for several nights.

In the luxurious bedroom, the ringtone of the cell phone rang without warning. It was his private phone. If the person with this number was not his family or very good friends, who would dare to disturb a rock star in the middle of the night? Do you want to be scolded?

"Oh, who..." Phil Collins grabbed the bedside table with his hand, and the wife next to him turned over and muttered, "You can't make a mistake, right?"

He looked at it in confusion and woke up all at once. It was Lily who called him!

This is really the first time. Lily never calls him at this point. She hasn't called him much in recent years. Has something happened?

He couldn't help but get nervous. While connecting immediately, he put on a nightgown and left the bedroom, "Lily, is there something wrong?"

Los Angeles, USA.

Lily's left index finger was slashing around the sofa, and her right hand held her cell phone. Even though she was separated by a continent and an ocean, she still felt a little urged. After coming to the United States at the age of 5, she never asked her father for anything, but this time, she had to do this...

"Dad, I have something I want to talk to you. It's very serious and important!"

"Of course, dad will always be here."

On the other hand, Phil Collins replied happily, it sounded like Lily had a heart-to-heart talk with him. Since he got married for three years, his baby daughter seemed to have a gap with him. She wrote a song to remedy it. But how long has it been since I told him to say "important things"? It has been more than four years.

What's the matter? Her mother is too strict? She misses Britain a little bit? She wants to listen to him singing? These thoughts flashed through, and suddenly there was something wrong with her love...

He said in surprise: "That boy's affairs? Ye Wei?"

"How do you know? You know!? The mysterious man is you?!" Lily almost screamed.

"What? What mysterious man? What are you talking about?" Phil Collins was confused and helpless. What else can his daughter have important things now? It's all that movie boy. That boy is snatching his daughter! Damn boy...

Lily said oh, then told the whole story, except for the mysterious man, and finally said sincerely: "I want to ask you to help you and call Willis. If they really want to take revenge, let them stop, is that okay?"

The father over there became very silent. She took a deep breath before mourning again: "Dad, PLEASE!"

This PLEASE evoked many memories of her, "Dad, PLEASE! Don't divorce your mother, don't leave me, Dad, PLEASE!", "Dad, why, do you no longer love your mother, don't love me?", "Dad, please, please."...

Go back! Lily shook her head, pressed down the memory images, raised her eyebrows and shouted: "This is the right thing, this is what a good person should do, isn't it?"

"Yes..." Phil Collins sighed, and his tone was serious: "But I have no friendship with Bruce Willis, and I don't even have his private number. I am not their boss or the president of the United States. I can't influence them, but I will try to mediate, so you don't have to worry."

"When we finish speaking, you will help. Don't let those people act. Only by working so hard and being so talented, they shouldn't be affected by these things, and the world shouldn't behave like this!"

Listening to his daughter's earnest and firm words, Collins smiled on his face, hoping that she would never be hurt by those sinister ones. He, a father who is not professional, will protect her even if he is desperate.

"I have another idea... Dad, you have also watched "Angel Dance". You know how excellent it is. "The Little Sunshine Beauty" is a project that Willis and the others are optimistic about. They think that if it is filmed, it can be on the Oscar stage! Isn't this a good investment opportunity?"

Lily said his heartbeat faster. In fact, this idea was just now, which was not a good way to win-win! She smiled and said, "Why don't you invest? You have a production budget of 5 million US dollars, that's... more than 3 million British pounds. Dad, you have hundreds of millions of British pounds? Instead of putting it in the bank, it's better..."

"Ah?" Phil Collins was like hearing a cold joke. He was neither smiling nor laughing. He finally shouted, saying: "Film investment is not a simple digital game. Willis and the others are willing to invest because they have the ability to produce and find distribution channels. With their connections, they don't have to worry about not making any money back.

And what about me? If that kid wants to release any record, I can support him and invest in him. He will have a good path, but my ability in the movie is limited."

"His name is Wei, not that boy!" Lily was a little angry. He heard his father's contempt. He had never been optimistic about Wei, as if he had some prejudice. He might have really not understood the movie, otherwise he would not have acted in a bad movie like "Super Deception"...

She said anxiously: "Don't you know a lot of senior Disney executives? You also won Oscars and you have connections! Dad, this really works! It's just 3 million pounds... I thought it was borrowed from you, and I'll invest it!"

"3 million pounds are not a small amount. Lily, maybe you think this boy is very important now, but..."

Phil Collins suddenly stopped and fortunately didn't continue saying, "But after a while, maybe you won't like him anymore, or he won't like you anymore. Your relationship ended for some reason, and then you will regret the investment you've made now."

Although her father didn't finish speaking, Lily could understand it and suddenly felt a sense of depression. She felt very uncomfortable, and the most uncomfortable thing was that she couldn't refute it.

Since her parents divorced, it can also be said that she has not believed in the fact that there is "forever" since she was a child. She doesn't know how long she and Wei Neng will last and what will happen in the future... She doesn't want to think about these things. It's too serious, too early, too hard to understand... As long as you are happy now, just be fascinated now.

"Forget it, forget it, pretend I haven't said it!" She shouted a few times, very angry: "I just want to say, old man, maybe you missed an opportunity to make a big splash in the film industry, not based on the soundtrack, but on the vision! When "The Little Sunshine Beauty" is released in the future, don't tell me that you regret it because regret is useless! Don't say it anymore, go to bed, good night."

"Lily!"

Lily hung up the phone and took deep breaths to calm her complex mood. She didn't want to see a psychologist again, but in recent months, she has lost control again and again...

With a tinkling sound from the phone, my father sent a text message: "I'll call Willis now. Lily, it's Dad's greatest wish to be happy."

The biggest? Lily sneered, Dad, you didn't beat "one".

Dad, mom, I don’t want you to separate, don’t divorce, PLEASE!PLEASE!PLEASE!…

She shook her head, drove away her memory, and replied to the text message: "Tell Willis that compared to Wei, he is a despicable coward! He will regret it!"

...

"How are you going to educate him?"

"That kid thought he could be arrogant if he had some talent, hehe. His talents were all "The Angel Dance". What if that wasn't his work?"

"You mean... to slander him? Say he copied him? I don't think so. He has a way to prove it, which will increase his reputation."

"That was a big deal. We just need to create a joke about people in the circle in a small range: 'We were almost cheated.' The joke clearly states that "Dance of Angels" is a prank by a group of college students in the USC. When they joined forces with the Asian boy, they wanted to trick Hollywood people.

As long as this joke spreads, the more it gets more and more serious it will become, many people will have the impression that he is a liar and he is here to tease Hollywood fools. No one wants to be a fool, especially the big guys, so that kid doesn't even have the chance to lobby, and people don't see him directly, and he doesn't know why, haha.

And let’s use power to reduce his chances, and the road he can walk is constantly blocked. Every time he walks, he will fail strangely. How about this lesson?”

"It's pretty good, but I can't get "The Little Sunshine Beauty"? Bruce will be disappointed."

"Don't worry, let that kid taste the taste of failure first. When he becomes a dog in the water, we will give him some food and buy the "Sunny Little Beauty" project for 2 million! Don't be afraid that he won't sell it. People will change. The younger they are, the more blows they will hit, the easier it will change. Maybe in a few days, the kid will beg us to forgive him and want to be a little Woody Allen.

Wait, Bruce called me, I'll hear what he said."

"Well, please say hello to me."

It took a while.

"...I'm back, haha, the boy's little girlfriend asked her dad to help. The rock star called Bruce, probably saying that the young man was ignorant and didn't bother him. Bruce told me not to mess with that kid, just pretend he didn't exist."

"What do you say?"

"Phil Collins can't control us, nor can he bring us benefits, so he doesn't have to pay attention to him. And Bruce...Arnold, this is not just Bruce's business, but also our business. If we don't do anything, we will really become a joke in the industry. I must educate this kid. He can't beat me, and no one can help him!"

"What should I do when Bruce finds out afterwards, he loses his temper?"

"He doesn't know. As long as we bring the project over, he will only be happy. If he can get an Oscar nomination, haha, your company will be waiting for capital injection."

"Sounds good...when are you going to start acting?"

"tonight."

...

After dinner, Ye Wei returned to the room and sent a long text message to all members of the Dream Chasing Alliance: "Because the Willis team changed their minds and thought I was not suitable to be the producer and director of the project, and wanted to replace me, so the cooperation between Dream Chasing Alliance and Cheyenne Enterprise ended here. It's not a joke, I will continue to work hard, so don't worry!"

He did not explain the bad methods of Willis' team, but the news was enough to make everyone furious, and the phone immediately rushed to the concerned and indignant text messages.

Ye Wei lay on the bed, texting and chatting with them, his heart became warmer and warmer. The Wei that his friends liked was not a despicable villain.

In less than an hour, guests came to the house, Lev, Bard, Chen No, Colwin, and his four best friends, all came!

"Brother Wei, stop talking about anything!"

Ye Wei just came out to welcome them. As soon as he met, Lev hugged him, "I love you!" Bud also hugged him, Chen Nuo was so, and Kerrwin hesitated and hugged him...

On the lawn, five people were surrounded by a group of people. Ye Wei, who was hugged in the middle, raised his head and shouted: "I'm not gay! Bud, your hand!"

"Oh sorry, I thought you hid some food..."

...

"Mom, please, please! Help us!"

When her mother came back in the evening, Lily told her the cause and effect, and then she begged her. She would be much more natural to beg her mother, but she had never had any effect...

At this time in the hall, Taverman sighed: "I believe Willis will not retaliate, but we really can't do anything among those Lowett. I'm serious, I can't help Wei."

Lily was immediately angry again, "Then you can introduce Wei to some other big names, right? In this world, Willis is not the only superstar!"

"It's not just Willis, but others will give him more or less face, Lowett and others. Moreover, this project is too weird and risky, a teenage director! Even if anyone is interested, few people dare to seize such investment opportunities.

And those who don’t have to worry about Willis and the others’ feelings have no need for this. Why do they get involved in this matter? Money? Fame? They don’t lack; help young people? Good reputation? I really don’t know who will have this leisure... So..."
To be continued...
