Chapter 332: Don’t Bother

Zhao Wenxuan gently opened the door to the second floor of the attic, and then saw the "Plant World" appearing in front of him. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then his eyes were attracted by the plants all over the room, and he couldn't help but look around.

When he saw the boss You Benchang sitting behind a table and preparing to eat, he couldn't help but bowed slightly: "Sorry to bother you!"

"Come in." You Benchang said while pouring tea.

The camera follows Zhao Wenxuan into the house, showing more plants around him as he passes by. Next to the window is a table with various things on it. There is a small area in the middle where you can bake things. , although the house looks a bit messy, all the items are so simple and have a sense of life, without a trace of falsehood or artificiality.

You Benchang didn't look up: "Have you eaten?"

"Huh?" Zhao Wenxuan looked away and looked at the boss.

"Is your wife back yet?" You Benchang asked, pouring a cup of tea and placing it opposite him.

Zhao Wenxuan nodded slightly, sighed and said: "Yes"

"Come and have a try. My craftsmanship should be quite good." After saying that, You Benchang took the bowls, chopsticks and plates from the table and placed them on the opposite side.

Seeing You Benchang turning over the food on the grill with chopsticks, Zhao Wenxuan couldn't help but ask: "What is this?"

"Puffer fish roe is delicious when grilled with some salt." You Benchang put a roe on Zhao Wenxuan's plate.

But Zhao Wenxuan did not pick up the chopsticks. He looked at You Benchang, who was playing with the food with his head down, and opened his mouth twice, wanting to mention his resignation, but You Benchang did not raise his head to look at him.

And at this moment, he inadvertently saw a photo frame on a shelf not far behind You Benchang.

You Benchang seemed to have noticed what he was looking at. He put down his chopsticks and raised his hand to gesture slightly: "My wife died of illness nine years ago."

Zhao Wenxuan nodded slightly, with regret and greeting in his eyes.

You Benchang chewed the food in his mouth, took a sip of tea, and continued:

"One of the couple will definitely leave first, and the one who stays will suffer the most."

Saying that, You Benchang took another sip of tea, while Zhao Wenxuan looked at him.

What You Benchang said actually means something, because now the actor's wife, Jiang Qinqin, has left Zhao Wenxuan.

Afterwards, You Benchang put down the tea cup again, with a look on his face as he recalled the past, as if he had thought of something wonderful, and then said with a smile: "I dressed her up beautifully and sent her away."

After saying that, he turned around and looked at his wife's photo: "She was the first one I sent away."

Then he turned around and said, "I started doing this after that."

The next moment, You Benchang picked up the puffer fish roe from the plate: "Let's talk about this."

He put it in his mouth and took a bite, showing an expression of enjoyment as he chewed: "This is also a corpse!"

Then he looked at the roe in his hand and sighed: "A living thing survives by eating other living things, ha!"

Zhao Wenxuan understood the meaning of You Benchang's words. Human beings are constantly eating the remains of other lives to survive. There are deaths and corpses coming in every day. Why should we dislike the profession of an embalmer who takes away corpses?

You Benchang took the fish roe in his hand and continued: "If you want to live, you have to eat."

He took a bite and swallowed: "Since you are eating, you must eat the best."

Zhao Wenxuan looked at You Benchang and knew that the other party was saying that the career of an embalmer was a necessity for society. At the same time, he was also saying that people have to eat while living. What's wrong with being an embalmer?

A profession must do what this profession should do. If you make up your mind to be an undertaker, then you must strengthen your faith and do your best.

Zhao Wenxuan did not speak, but lowered his head to look at the puffer fish roe on the plate, then picked it up and took a bite. It was a little hot when he first entered the mouth, but the next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes exaggeratedly and raised his eyebrows. .

You Benchang looked at him and asked, "Is it delicious?"

Zhao Wenxuan showed a smile on his face: "It's delicious!"

You Benchang sighed meaningfully: "It's so delicious that it's embarrassing!"

As he spoke, he licked his fingers, and Zhao Wenxuan also smiled and ate all the puffer fish roe in his hand.

"Yes! Teacher You did a great job, and so did Wen Xuan!"

Wu Yuchen looked at the playback on the monitor and was very satisfied with the last effect.

In this section, Mr. You Benchang used his life wisdom to gradually dispel Lin Wu's desire to resign, and also conveyed to him bit by bit that although the embalmer was touching the corpse, what was the reason for it to be unclean?

At the same time, this is also the third time that animal carcasses appear in the film. The first time is an octopus, the second time is a salmon in a river, and the third time is a pufferfish roe. Each time, it brings different thoughts to the actor Lin Wu.

When You Benchang heard Wu Yuchen's compliment, he walked over with a smile and said: "Director Wu, your lines are still well written. This kind of open-minded dialogue that has seen through life and death and comprehended the true meaning of life really admires me!" "

Wu Yuchen smiled when he heard this: "Teacher You, thank you! It's your performance that makes this conversation of mine stand out!"

…

In the hotel, after Wu Yuchen hung up the phone, he couldn't help but frown. He stood by the window and looked into the distance, thinking quietly.

Jiang Qinqin also noticed his state and couldn't help but walked over and asked: "Husband, what's wrong? What's so troublesome?"

Wu Yuchen shook his head, then smiled at Jiang Qinqin and said, "Trouble? That's it..."

Then he sighed: "The troubles of happiness!"

"The trouble of happiness? What is it?" Jiang Qinqin immediately asked curiously after hearing this.

Wu Yuchen looked at his mobile phone and said: "A leader of the Olympic Organizing Committee just called me and reminded me that September next year will be the time for soliciting and selecting plans for the Olympic opening ceremony, and wanted me to prepare early!"

Jiang Qinqin couldn't help but be overjoyed when she heard this. This was almost a clear indication that the Olympic Organizing Committee hoped that Wu Yuchen could take up the responsibility and prepare a good plan to serve as the chief director of the opening ceremony!

Jiang Qinqin immediately hugged Wu Yuchen, kissed him, and said happily: "Husband, you are so amazing!"

But she thought of the way Wu Yuchen sighed just now, and couldn't help but ask: "This is a great thing! Why are you so frowning?"

Wu Yuchen sighed and said, "I don't have enough time!"

Although there is still more than half a year until September next year, Director Wu Da also has a lot of work scheduled.

I really may not be able to spare so much time to prepare. Not to mention the unfinished filming of "The Embalmer", which is in post-production, there is also "Batman" being prepared in Hollywood, waiting for him to start filming next year.

To be honest, every movie made by Lao Mouzi is more or less controversial and has been criticized, but the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games he made is really nothing to say. It has been unanimously recognized by audiences from all over the country.

So this phone call from the leader of the Olympic Organizing Committee made him a little embarrassed. Wu Yuchen asked himself, even if he was asked to come up with a better plan than Lao Mouzi, he couldn't do it!

You said you copied Lao Mouzi's plan? This is simply not possible!

When the time comes when Lao Mouzi comes up with this plan himself, isn't that going to create a huge mess? Then who of the two should the Olympic Organizing Committee believe?

With Wu Yuchen's current status and prestige, he can overwhelm Lao Mouzi and make the Olympic Organizing Committee fully invest in him, Director Wu, and regard Lao Mouzi as a villain. But he won't do such a thing. For a chief director, why bother?

And with his current influence, will having this chief director really add a lot to him?

Wu Yuchen thought about it for a long time and decided to forget about it, even if the chief director didn't want it!

Although the Olympic Organizing Committee hopes that he will take the job, he will be able to find reasons to shirk it when the time comes, and it will not hinder anything. The worst and worst outcome is that a little master of poetry recitation would recite a poem in the past and then be eliminated with honor.

After Wu Yuchen figured it out, he also smiled.

But Jiang Qinqin didn't know. She asked worriedly: "Hubby, are you very pressed for time? Can you catch up?"

Wu Yuchen shook his head: "It's not that easy. This is not just a matter of one person. If we really want to make a complete plan, we have to form a reliable team and prepare carefully, which will take several months. From my side, let’s forget it!”

Jiang Qinqin hurriedly said: "Husband! We can't forget it! It won't be long before our country holds such a big event as the Olympic Games! The whole country is watching, and maybe this is the only chance!"

Wu Yuchen sighed: "Within one year, "The Embalmer" and "Batman" are two movies, it's hard for me to say that I have enough time to prepare for this..."

When Jiang Qinqin heard this, she couldn't help but look guilty in her eyes. If she hadn't approached Wu Yuchen for the heroine, wouldn't he have had to film "The Embalmer"? Then wouldn’t it be enough in these few months?

She looked struggling, and after hesitating for a long time, she said: "Husband, how about this show..."

Seeing her like this, Wu Yuchen said directly: "What are you thinking about? Am I the kind of person who does things halfway? This drama is the product of the big guys, not the two of us!"

Then his tone slowed down and he rubbed Jiang Qinqin's shoulders: "Don't think too much, just finish filming the current scene first!"

Jiang Qinqin nodded, said nothing, and just lay quietly on Wu Yuchen's chest, feeling a warm current rush through her heart.

…

"Looks like he's still alive."

"She probably committed suicide by burning charcoal."

"How did you know?"

"There was no pain in his expression. He died in a cold car, and he would have been found like this a long time ago."

In the footage, You Benchang and Zhao Wenxuan were making preparations for the burial of a body, and they were communicating.

Then, Zhao Wenxuan looked at the face of the deceased carefully: "Obviously so beautiful..."

The camera also focused on the deceased, who was a long-haired beauty.

At this time, You Benchang suddenly asked Zhao Wenxuan: "Do you want to try it?"

Before Zhao Wenxuan could answer, he heard Wu Yuchen shout "click". He originally thought that something was wrong with him, but when he saw that Wu Yuchen did not come to him, he was talking to the photographer. It seemed that it was not them. It's a matter of two actors.

At this time, Wu Yuchen said to the photographer: "For this shot, don't shoot from above. The camera position should be lowered to a position parallel to Lin Wu, so that Teacher You's face is on the edge."

This conversation scene actually expresses the meaning of the formal handover of work between apprentices You Benchang and Lin Wu. Before he started taking pictures, he could take overhead shots, but after the official handover today, the camera must shoot parallel to him.

This means that Lin Wu can undertake the coffining work alone. For the serious and solemn work of the coffin master, which is not favored by most people, the significance of inheritance is naturally more important.

A moment later, in the camera, Zhao Wenxuan stretched out his hand to touch the body of the deceased under the blanket, and then his expression changed slightly, and his hand stayed under the lower abdomen, touching back and forth to confirm.

Then he retracted his hand, stepped back to You Benchang, and whispered to him sideways: "He has that thing..."

"What?" You Benchang asked in confusion.

Zhao Wenxuan whispered again: "It's that thing..."

The next moment, You Benchang seemed to understand, and then looked at the face of the lying dead, obviously a beautiful woman!

You Benchang was also stunned for a moment, and after Zhao Wenxuan handed him the gloves, he put them on and reached over to confirm in person.

After seeing this scene, the family members of the deceased on the side also had different expressions. The father lowered his head, and the mother took a deep breath.

After confirming, You Benchang walked to the employer and whispered, "I have something to ask."

"Ah? What?" The man seemed to be hard of hearing and spoke loudly.

You Benchang moved closer and whispered, "When we make up the deceased, there are differences between male and female makeup..."

The employer said, "Wait a minute."

Then he came to the middle-aged couple and asked loudly, "Sister, what kind of makeup do you want to put on Tienan? Is it a boy or a girl?"

After saying that, he still had a slight smile on his lips, and he obviously laughed at this kind of thing in his heart.

The middle-aged woman glanced at him unhappily, and then mocked her husband, "If I had given him a girl from the beginning, there would be no such thing today!"

The middle-aged man tilted his head, his eyes flickering, and didn't want to pay attention to his wife.

"This is all your fault!"

Hearing his wife's complaints, the middle-aged man turned his head and looked at her with anger in his eyes, and his wife also stared at him without showing any weakness.

The man watching nearby asked with a smile: "Sister, then put on some female makeup?"

"Yes!" the woman said in a resounding voice.

In the camera, Winston Chao puts on makeup for this "beauty", and her face gradually becomes more delicate and beautiful.

On the side, his mother has already rushed over and burst into tears.

His father holds a photo of his son with short hair in his arms, looks at his son's face, can't help but shed tears, and murmurs: "Iron Man..."
