Chapter 15 Sudden Death Succeeds Two Brothers

Sammy's resistance to blows has always been very high.

Although he encountered the most ridiculous filming scene in his life on his first day on the job. But after a night of fun playing "Dragon Quest" with Mikey, he regained his energy in a dramatic way.

because……

How can a dragon-slaying warrior be afraid of hardships and dangers?

This little trouble is just a small obstacle on the warrior's way to slay the evil dragon.

Mychiron was powerless to correct this.

He can now silently and automatically filter out 'Dragon Slaying': As long as you are happy.

In this way, Sami, who always regarded himself as a dragon-slaying warrior, successfully hypnotized himself.

He quickly resurrected on the spot with full health, and rushed back to the battlefield (crew) with great courage, determined to fight the "evil forces" to the end.

However, what I didn’t expect was that,

Before he could actually take any action, Director Jones came to him in an understanding manner.

"Have you directed any films before?"

"No."

"Oh, you can try it now."

"?!"

The filming location changed again.

Director Jones, an alcoholic, was still sitting on his high throne (director's chair), drunk and drowsy. The only difference was: this time, when he woke up, he didn't shout "do it again", but asked "

What should I say?'

Encountering this kind of situation for the first time, Sami thought about it for a long time.

Unexpectedly, Director Jones immediately shouted to the filming location: 'Let's do it again, the actors should run faster!'

'Hey!' Sami was startled: 'Wait... I'm just suggesting! Suggestion!'

I have to say, Director Jones suddenly did this, which is really frustrating!

because……

―Well, I occasionally look in the mirror and say, 'Sammy, you are the best'! But everyone knows that I am just saying good things to encourage myself. In essence, I am just a person full of wonderful ideas.

Think about it, a weird kid who is not understood by others.

――So, I can’t deceive myself into believing that I can become a powerful director who can replace Mr. Jones and direct the entire crew without any experience?

In short, Director Jones's approach may be a good thing for some newcomers who are good at handling errands.

But for Sami, who has a strong sense of responsibility, it brought a mountain of pressure.

He couldn't be sure that every decision he made was correct; he couldn't prove that his ideas were realistic; he couldn't guarantee that the TV series would achieve high ratings under his behind-the-scenes direction.

These inevitable questions popped up in his mind every moment, making him think over and over again: 'What if I mess up? What if I mess up?'

As for the thought of "the mess was Director Jones's fault, who asked him to let me direct it" to shirk responsibility.

Unfortunately, it never appeared!

then……

There will always be bad moments in life.

At this stage of director 'Help' Jones' directing, that's it.

Sammy fell into an extremely helpless and frightened situation.

Because he has never realized so strongly that he is so small in the huge field of directing.

He was like an ignorant countryman who came to the city. He obviously had many ideas and was full of expectations and enthusiasm, but he completely lost his way in the colorful and prosperous world, and then he felt ashamed and at a loss.

Obviously, if you want to succeed in anything, passion alone is not enough.

For this reason, he secretly made an almost harsh assessment of his talents: [Poor script understanding, poor directing ability, creative ideas that he thought were exquisite but actually naive, and unstable screenwriting talents, because he could not

He likes to talk to strangers and seems almost non-existent in the mise-en-scène, his third-rate painting skills, and... his overly polarized and unstable emotions that are sometimes high and sometimes low.]

These conclusions were almost unbearable for Sami.

Because no matter how bad the external evaluation is, people like to beautify themselves deep down, and facing the truth is as difficult as forcing a person to jump from a thirty-story building.

But if you always avoid the problem, the problem will never be solved.

Sammy was unwilling to admit defeat.

He gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and began a long and protracted battle.

If you have never been exposed to the knowledge of directors, then start learning from scratch seriously. This is a society with advanced information. Any knowledge that people need can always be found through various channels as long as they are willing;

If you have never had any experience as a director, then you can take root in the crew. Those veteran employees who have been with the crew for half their lives are all teachers. Little by little, I will humbly learn from them and understand every link and step of filming.

later……

Director Jones specifically said: "If a person only sleeps four to six hours a day and devotes the remaining 24 hours a day to studying and practicing, there will be only two results in the end, one is sudden death, and the other is sudden death.

That's success. But not everyone is Sammy, so don't be like him."

On the other hand, Sammy ignored Mikey's existence for a long time because he was too busy and focused.

After the burned-out house was repaired, he thanked and said goodbye to Rosie and the others, and moved back to his home with Mikey.

But this also means that while Sammy is busy at work, Mikey has to stay at home.

Logically speaking, this is exactly what Long wants. He eats, drinks and lives for free without having to work, sleeps openly every day, and no one nags and worries in Long's ears.

But Mikey felt strangely sulky.

After arriving in the human kingdom, his emotions seemed to have become incomprehensible.

But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that it was all the fault of the little round-faced man!

It's not that he suddenly disliked Sami, or that he overbearingly prevented Sami from doing other things, but he said: "You are obviously my human being, but how can you not care more about me? I'm still a minor.

The baby dragon.”

He imagined that he was like some poor left-behind children in the human community, waiting lonely and cold every day for a little bit of charity from humans, while the evil-minded round-faced dwarf Sammy didn't know anything and even destroyed things.

(He made it up himself) "Some kind of hidden contract between humans and dragons", "raising dragons, but ignoring dragons".

This is too much.

He angrily wanted to have a good talk with his human.

But Sammy was completely unaware of Long's dissatisfaction.

He is exhausted to death every day. While trying to absorb knowledge like a sponge, he also has to ensure that his work does not make mistakes. The latter requires him to read the script to be filmed in advance to ensure that when Director Jones strikes again due to drunkenness, the "

When asked what should I say, I should give a correct answer that, even if it is not excellent, is at least a passing level and makes no mistakes.

So, when Mikey was sitting in the living room, preparing in advance the manuscript that he had spent a whole day preparing, and just waiting for the humans to come back, he angrily asked, "Why do you come back so late every day?"...

Sami was exhausted and let himself fall directly on the sofa.

He closed his eyes, as if he was about to die, and muttered in a low voice without knowing what he was saying: "Please, I'm almost exhausted! Can you throw me on the bed? Or, just ignore me,

Let me sleep here..."

Noticing the black marks under Sammy's eyes and his weak tone, Mikey immediately forgave him.

He walked over and picked the person up easily with one hand, firmly and without disturbing the sleeping human being at all.

After all, compared to his tall and strong body, the round-faced dwarf in his arms was like a lifeless large doll that could be manipulated at will.

Even though he is still a minor Charmander.

But the differences between races have become more and more obvious. To him, human beings are as light as a feather. Maybe one day they turn into prototypes, and if they accidentally blow hard, they can be blown away.

.

When he thought of this, Mikey became more cautious in his movements.

But when he put the person on the bed, he couldn't help but secretly poke Sammy's round face.

What makes Long sad is...

He seemed to have to face the painful fact that his bun seemed to be deflated.

"Isn't it good to eat, drink, and sleep every day? Why do you have to make yourself like this?" Charmander, who thinks differently from humans, felt distressed and puzzled.

But it cannot be denied that this inevitably aroused curiosity in him: "I don't like work at all. Is work fun? Why do you like it so much?"

But Sammy's efforts were not in vain.

Soon, Director Jones, who had been refusing to communicate, finally came to talk to him.

"What do you want to do?" The director, who was drunk every day, asked in a very impatient tone when he was rarely sober.

"Huh? What?" Sami was puzzled by this.
To be continued...
