Chapter 1103: Huo Jiu’s Efficiency

“Oh? Okay, okay.”
The director was not Song Yaoyao, which somewhat disappointed Xu Dongqing. He liked Song Yaoyao’s work a lot. She was an excellent new director, and some of her filming methods and concepts were different from the pre-existing directors in the entertainment industry. Her work was fascinating and unique.
However, she was not only the director, but also the boss. With so many employees, there must be a lot of screenwriters who wanted to try their luck. If Song Yaoyao had to shoot every one of them personally, wouldn’t she be exhausted to death?
The truth was, Song Yaoyao had already distributed many excellent scripts, including online dramas and television dramas. For a movie, Xu Dongqing’s was the first.
Huo Jiu was very efficient. How efficient?
That very evening, Xu Dongqing was already paid his copyright fees.
Xu Dongqing looked at the bank balance in the text message on his phone and found a place to cry. He liked to read books and write stories, so when he chose to go to college, he disobeyed his parents for the first time and chose to go down this path.
His parents wanted him to choose a major that would be easier to find a job after graduation. Screenwriting, and filming movies and television dramas was something that the older generation could not comprehend.
They only knew that they could see them on television. They did not even know who was behind all these stories.
His parents were farmers, and the living expenses they gave him were the highest that his family could afford every month. However, in such a prosperous city, where even the school was linked to fame and fortune… the living expenses he received were insignificant.
After crying, Xu Dongqing couldn’t wait to call home.
“Mom, I’m making money!”
…
In the dormitory, Ling Yuang had forgotten about the incident during the day. Instead, he was playing an intense game with his roommates.
“Hey, save me, save me! F*ck!”
“Are you f*cking blind? I’m right behind you, where are you going?”
“I told you to save me, but you went to fight instead. Are you happy that we’ve been wiped out? I’m not playing anymore. F*ck, what the hell was that?”
He threw away the mouse, scratched his head, and stood up grumpily.
Xu Dongqing pushed the door open and entered. Without looking at anyone, he grabbed his clothes and went to wash up.
Ling Yuang turned around and was so frightened that he cursed, “F*ck! Are you a f*cking human or ghost? Why are you back?”
Xu Dongqing didn’t seem to be missing any limbs, and he even had a new pair of glasses.
He pulled Xu Dongqing over and sized him up. Xu Dongqing quietly cooperated, his face still covered in injuries from the beating earlier that day.
Ling Yuang looked at his expression and was amused. “What? Tell me, who did you offend? I thought you’d die or be crippled this time. What kind of dumb luck do you have? How did you return intact?”
“I didn’t offend anyone.” Xu Dongqing hugged his clothes and lowered his gaze.
“Ha, do you think I’m stupid? That man was obviously a gangster. Could you be…” Ling Yuang thought of a possibility and was even more amused. “Did you borrow money from a loan shark?”
That was the only possibility. After all, Xu Dongqing’s family was so poor. Otherwise…
He glanced at the logo on Xu Dongqing’s glasses. “Where did you get the money to buy these glasses?”
When Ling Yuang said this, the other roommates realized that Xu Dongqing had changed glasses.
“Don’t just tell me that these glasses look good.
“How can they not look good? They’re worth tens of thousands of yuan!”
Xu Dongqing had?wanted to return the money to Huo Jiu, but Huo Jiu said that it was just a pair of glasses. Since they were in a cooperative relationship now, this was their greeting gift.
Now that he heard Ling Yuang’s words, he was stunned.
