Jiang Weicai is an entertainment reporter and what many people call a paparazzi.
He would sometimes squat in a rental house near his target for a month to capture evidence of his cheating.
He sometimes uses various means to get close to the target and obtain first-hand information.
Jiang Weicai believes that calling him a paparazzi is really a slur. He is an agent of the new era and an intelligence officer with professional qualities.
This time, Jiang Weicai set his sights on Lu Jian.
Lu Jian's movie "The Crying" set a box office record for domestic horror films. With a box office of over 2 billion, it ranked among the top 20 in the domestic box office rankings.
This time, "In the Mouth of a Madman" has even greater publicity, and it has the previous foundation. The industry is generally optimistic that the box office will exceed 2 billion, and may even reach 3 billion.
Therefore, being able to get first-hand information about this movie is great news for entertainment reporters like Jiang Weicai.
Some people say that entertainment reporters like them always want to make big news. Jiang Weicai thinks this is true. If a reporter can only write about neighborhood relations, art performances, and leadership meetings, then he is incompetent.
If a reporter cannot write some earth-shattering news, then his job is in vain.
With a sense of mission as a reporter, Jiang Weicai decided to follow Lu Jian.
However, Lu Jian is a well-known journalist insulator. Except for those big magazines with national prefixes, it is more difficult than a dream to ask anything from Lu Jian. Moreover, the actors in Lu Jian's films keep secrets.
They also did a good job. Jiang Weicai's colleagues searched for a long time but could not find any information.
Once before, reporters from several magazines rented a house across from Lu Tian's house and prepared to find out what was going on. However, they were inexplicably taken away by the police, which made the reporters fearful.
Precisely because of this, being able to capture Lu Jian's gossip information has now become the biggest pursuit of entertainment reporters.
Jiang Weicai heard the news that Lu Tan might go to Jiangcheng Mental Hospital, and immediately felt that this was a good opportunity.
Because Lu Jian didn't tell anyone else, he probably didn't have bodyguards or anything like that, so he could easily get in touch with Lu Jian.
However, after Jiang Weicai and some other entertainment reporters visited the site in advance, they discovered that the defensive measures at Jiangcheng Mental Hospital were stricter than they imagined.
Because there are some patients who may suffer from severe mental illness living here, guards have been added. In order to prevent these patients from being stimulated, ordinary people cannot enter at all.
Many reporters retreated, but Jiang Weicai did not give up.
He believes that this is what makes him unique.
Jiang Weicai thought of a way.
He contacted doctors he knew, found connections, obtained a disease certificate, and then went through the transfer procedures.
The day before Lu Jian went to the mental hospital, Jiang Weicai had been admitted to Jiangcheng Mental Hospital as a schizophrenic patient.
He waited for the landing to trip.
...
At the end of April, the weather has become a little hot, and the spring in Jiangcheng also has a wet smell. The fragrance of flowers mixed with humidity penetrates into people's noses. Some rhinitis patients have to suffer from both.
torture.
Lu Tan came to Jiangcheng Mental Hospital and saw his interface person.
"Dr. Hao, long time no see."
That was the doctor who diagnosed me before. His surname was Hao, and he was a good doctor.
He asked Lu Kan many questions thoughtfully and also prescribed medicine for him. Although Lu Kan didn't take any medicine, he felt much better.
"How are you feeling lately?"
Doctor Hao looked at Lu Tiao and had an unreal feeling.
He was obviously supposed to be an extremely dangerous mental patient, but I didn't expect that he would now be able to make a movie that was a hit at the box office, and even visit a mental hospital.
Dr. Hao once didn't know who was suffering from mental illness.
Of course, cooperation must be done well.
The investor of this mental hospital is Jiangcheng Industrial. The superiors have told him to assist Lu Tan in collecting materials, so Dr. Hao naturally has to accompany him throughout the process.
"I feel pretty good about myself."
Lu Tan replied.
"Regarding the collection of materials, we have arranged some mild patients here, and they should be able to provide some support..."
Before Dr. Hao finished speaking, Lu Tan raised his hand to signal.
"Dr. Hao, I think patients may feel depressed, restrained, and unable to let go in this one-to-one consultation. These patients are extremely mentally sensitive people, and their behavior in this situation may not be true.
, I think it has little reference value.”
"......really."
Dr. Hao nodded slightly.
Many patients are resistant to doctors and treatment, and many even think that they are not sick.
If you communicate with them like a consultation, the other party may be resistant, and ultimately it will be futile.
"I have a proposal."
Lu Tan looked at the hospital ward and said.
"How about I pretend to be a mentally ill patient and live with them. This way I can eliminate the barriers and obtain the most authentic information."
"?"
Dr. Hao looked at Lu Jian.
Pretending to be a psychopath???
Aren't you a psychopath?
Is this still pretending?
"But this may irritate the patient."
Dr. Hao hesitated.
Because mental illness is sometimes contagious.
It's not a viral infection, but similar to memetic infection in science fiction works. Sometimes a patient with a self-consistent fictional worldview will tell other patients about his delusions, and some patients with mild symptoms will become infected.
You will become infected and your symptoms will worsen.
Therefore, patients with mild symptoms must generally be distinguished from patients with severe symptoms, and patients with different diseases must also be distinguished, otherwise these people may worsen if they stay together.
It was once said that a severely ill patient in a mental hospital even persuaded doctors and nurses to escape from prison with a group of people.
If Lu Jian mixes with these patients, their symptoms may become more serious!
"It's okay, Dr. Hao. I'm a professional actor. They definitely won't be able to tell that I'm not actually a patient."
Lu Tan patted his chest.
"..."
You don’t even need to act, you are just a mental patient!
Dr. Hao’s heart is full of energy.
It seems that persuasion is not possible and can only help Lu Tan influence less people.
Dr. Hao called for the nurse and whispered some instructions.
"Xiao Tao, take Director Lu Kan to the recreation room. Find him a hospital gown before you go. Keep an eye on him and don't let him hurt other patients."
"Watch him?"
The nurse was a young girl. She was a little confused when she heard what Dr. Hao said.
What do you do when you change into a hospital gown?
Generally speaking, isn't it right to prevent patients from harming visitors?
With doubts, she came to Lu Kan. Looking at the tall, handsome director, she pinched the corner of her clothes and said softly.
