Trembling At A High Altitude

Chapter 945

Li Teng was caught off guard and startled, almost jumping up from his seat.

When he calmed down and looked at the laptop again, he found that there was nothing on the keyboard.

The screen was also very quiet. The video of the car accident had stopped playing, leaving only a still shot.

The head stared straight at him.

"Hahahaha, it feels so good!"

Li Teng is rarely frightened now. What kind of bloody scene has he not seen before? Only this kind of sudden high-energy lens can scare him off guard.

When he was about to close the news page and start making up tomorrow's script, Li Teng found that his mouse was malfunctioning.

There is no way to fork out the video that pops up.

The person in the video also seemed to have a weird smile on his face, as if he was teasing Li Teng.

"Can I still not know how to restart?"

Li Teng snorted and pressed the hot start key combination... to no avail.

Then do a cold start.

I pressed the power button for a long time, but it still wouldn't turn off.

Dial the power cord…

Unplugging the laptop's power cord doesn't help either.

Just plug in the battery.

During the whole process, the people on the screen looked at Li Teng with a cold expression.

In the middle of the night, not to mention, I always face this person's head, and my back will feel cold.

This cool feeling was exactly what Li Teng needed.

For him, it was simply a pleasure.

After working for a long time, Li Teng finally took out the battery from his laptop.

Then I looked at the laptop screen again...

A scene that disappointed him happened.

The laptop actually shut down.

"I thought that the head would not disappear even if there was no electricity! Or, like Sadako, she would crawl out of the screen and pull and scratch on me...

"In the end, there was nothing."

Li Teng was disappointed and put the battery back on his laptop.

Power on again.

No response.

Plug in the power cord and turn it on, but still no response.

I patted it hard and turned it on again...

‘Chi! ’

A puff of smoke came out of the laptop, and the air was filled with the smell of paste.

"I'll choke you! Are you kidding me? Burned?"

Li Teng was dumbfounded.

This laptop burned down. What code words did he use to write the script?

If the director can't write tomorrow's script, what will he film tomorrow?

The director's problem is actually not big. There is nothing that can't be solved with one beating. If there is, then two beatings.

However, this plot task requires him to complete the screenwriting work assigned by the director on time!

He plays a screenwriter!

If the script is not handed in on time tomorrow, his plot mission will be failed!

Therefore, the solution of beating the director will not work.

It seems that this laptop was not burned for no reason, but... the boring director deliberately made it more difficult for him to complete the plot tasks!

"If you can't help me, at worst, just write on your phone!"

Li Teng thought for a while and took out his phone.

I was about to download an APP like a notebook to write tomorrow's script, but an advertisement popped up on my phone.

Li Teng was about to close the advertisement, but the content of the advertisement started playing automatically.

It's an advertisement for a shopping website.

Newly opened shopping website, newly registered members can participate in the lottery, the biggest prize is a laptop worth 0.0001 yuan!

Money in this script world is not measured in units of 'yuan', but in a unit of measurement called 'shuang'.

For example, as a screenwriter, Li Teng's monthly salary was 0.00003125 yuan, equivalent to 5,000 yuan in the previous world, and this laptop worth 0.0001 yuan was equivalent to 16,000 yuan in that world.

"Am I not keeping up with the times? Are people so rich nowadays? How many years will it take me to earn enough as a screenwriter?" Li Teng sighed.

While sighing, Li Teng was about to click on the shopping website's advertisement.

Unexpectedly, when I pointed it with my finger, a turntable popped up.

There was no cross on the turntable that could be clicked off, so Li Teng could only wait for the turntable to finish spinning.

"Congratulations! You won the first prize as a new member of our shopping website! A laptop worth 0.0001 yuan!

“Just fill in your mobile phone number, verification code and identity and address information, and we will send the laptop to you!”

The carousel stopped at the first prize laptop.

Li Teng had a cruel smile on his face.

With such a cheap scam, you still want to deceive an old man like Uncle Li who has lived for hundreds of years?

"We are a regular shopping website. Your winning information is not a scam. There is no need for postage, no notary fees, and no requirement to pay on delivery..."

The advertiser seemed to know what consumers were worried about. When Li Teng was about to cancel the ad, several lines of prompts popped up.

"Okay, I would like to see how you want to deceive next..."

Li Teng knew that this advertisement must be a lie, but he really needed a laptop now. He couldn't use his mobile phone to code every day, right?

With the idea of ​​"As long as I pay, I won't be fooled," Li Teng completed the registration, filled in the verification code, identity information and other requirements, and then submitted it.

"The biggest advantage of our website is the extremely fast delivery after shopping! We will deliver your winning laptop to your address as soon as possible. Please answer the phone to check.

"Our prizes require no postage, no notary fees, and no requirement to pay on delivery..."

A few more lines of prompts popped up on the screen, and then the ad disappeared on its own.

"Boring, a waste of my time."

Li Teng didn't believe the advertisement at all. After downloading the writing app, he started typing in tomorrow's script using his voice.

"What kind of bullshit voice input method is this? I clearly said 'I paid a new amount of money', why did it come out as 'XX spent the whole day'?

"How thirsty are the people who developed this input method? Are you tired after a whole day?"

Li Teng complained crazily into his cell phone.

I don't know whether the director deliberately set up the voice input method in this script world to be difficult to use, or whether Li Teng's Mandarin was not standard enough. Anyway, what he inputted using the phone's voice was simply messy.

Even if you want to modify it manually, there is no way to modify it.

Ten minutes later, Li Teng was so angry that he wanted to throw his phone downstairs.

Looking at the time, it's already one o'clock in the morning.

The script hasn't even been coded for a hundred words.

This efficiency...

Fortunately, I don't make a living by writing online novels, otherwise I would have starved to death long ago.

In this world of scripts, it is better to be an actor. I heard that an actor can earn a salary just by acting in a play. Unlike a screenwriter like Li Teng, who often works overtime in the middle of the night and earns 0.00003 salary a month. .

And those actors can also open studios and use various methods to avoid taxes.

Chapter 946

They, poor screenwriters, must pay no less than a penny in taxes. If they dare to pay less, they will be immediately arrested and imprisoned.

The gap between people in all walks of life is really huge!

Li Teng, who didn't have a laptop and was typing on his cell phone, looked sad and sighed.

At this moment, the door of the dormitory was suddenly knocked.

Li Teng couldn't help but be stunned.

Who is knocking on his door in the middle of the night?

Could it be...

The one who was decapitated in a car accident, right?

As a screenwriter, I made the characters in it so miserable, but the character came to take revenge at night?

It's indeed a bit scary!

How strong must the writers of online novels be? In the novel, this person is killed today, and that person is killed tomorrow, and the death is miserable. Those characters must have a lot of resentment, right?

One day we gathered together to find the writer.

Although Li Teng is very good at fighting, the world of this script is obviously a supernatural world. Ghosts and other things cannot be solved with fists and kicks.

Therefore, after hearing the knock on the door, Li Teng did not rush to open the door immediately. Instead, he cautiously stood by the door and asked outside.

"Who are you? Who are you looking for?"

There is no peephole in the door of the dormitory, and there is no way to look outside. I can only ask outside through the door.

"I'm a courier. You have a courier that has arrived. I left it at your door. You can get it yourself." A muffled voice came from outside.

"Express delivery? Delivering express delivery in the middle of the night? Are you coaxing ghosts?"

Li Teng sneered.

"What's wrong with delivering couriers in the middle of the night? Do you think everyone is like the actors in your crew? You can earn a lot of money casually? What's wrong with us couriers who didn't complete the task during the day and worked overtime at night? Isn't it normal? Home loan, car loan The loan has to be repaid, the children have to be raised, and I have to work so hard every month to earn so little..."

The courier outside started complaining like crazy after hearing what Li Teng said.

"Okay, okay, brother, what I just said was not directed at you..." Li Teng quickly apologized.

"I'm just talking casually, don't take it to heart! I've put the things down for you! I have other express delivery to deliver!" The sound of the courier's footsteps leaving was heard outside.

Li Teng carefully opened the door a crack.

There was actually a express box on the ground outside the door.

The dormitory rented by the crew is an old-fashioned building with rooms on both sides of the corridor. After going upstairs, a corridor leads directly to the bottom, with rooms on both sides of the corridor.

Li Teng stuck his head out and looked into the corridor outside. Under the dim light, there was no one there.

It looks like the courier has gone away.

Li Teng took the express box into the room and closed the door.

Is this... the express delivery that his character in the plot bought a few days ago?

After opening the express box, Li Teng couldn't help but be stunned.

It's actually...

a laptop?

And it looked familiar, it was the laptop that won the prize on the shopping website in the advertisement that popped up earlier.

Sure enough, it was delivered very quickly! It was delivered to you most of the night.

Are everyone in this script world so diligent? Are the employees of the shopping website still working overtime at night?

In order to earn enough money, people in this world really work hard!

Unfortunately, some people are destined not to earn a living for thousands of years.

This laptop is good, it lights up as soon as I press the power button.

It quickly went to the desktop and a video popped up.

"Congratulations on winning the first prize in our shopping website registration prize event! When you get this laptop, it means you are a koi! Your future career will definitely..."

The shopping website host Balabala said in the video.

Li Teng deleted the video, turned on the hotspot on his phone, and connected his laptop to the Internet.

The laptop has coding software installed, the kind that can be shared for free.

After opening the coding software, Li Teng sat down and started typing on the keyboard to code out the script he had conceived for tomorrow.

Hundreds of years ago, when Li Teng was working, he also relied on computer typing to make a living.

Although hundreds of years have passed, the body's habits are still there, and using a laptop to code is still much more comfortable than voice input on a mobile phone.

After more than three hours of tossing, Li Teng finally wrote tomorrow's script when it was almost dawn.

There are only two thousand words in total, which seems too thin, but there is no way, Li Teng can only write so much, and it will take him longer to write more.

But now it was almost dawn, and he was too sleepy, so he could only submit these two thousand words.

After opening his mailbox and sending the 2,000-word script to the director, Li Teng covered his mouth and yawned. He turned on the alarm on his phone, then lay on the bed and fell asleep quickly.

…

It felt like he had only slept for a short while when Li Teng was woken up by the alarm on his cell phone.

so sleepy!

It’s so hard for office workers!

I work overtime at night and go to work on time during the day.

If it weren't for the restrictions of plot tasks, Li Teng would definitely give up.

There is no way, no matter how sleepy you are, you have to force yourself to get up.

Brush your teeth with your eyes closed, wash your face with your eyes closed, go downstairs with your eyes half-open, and have breakfast.

…

"Where's the script?"

At the performance site, the director extended his hand to Li Teng.

"I sent it to your email." Li Teng answered the director.

"What are you doing? Why did you send it to my email? Print it out quickly! I, the assistant director, the set manager, the photographer, and all the actors involved all have a copy!" The director glared at Li Teng.

"All right."

"The filming will start soon! Hurry up! Don't waste the actors' time! Their performance fees are calculated at a few tenths of a percent!" The director urged Li Teng a few more words.

"OK."

Li Teng had no choice. The plot required the director to be satisfied with his script, otherwise the plot mission would be considered a failure.

So, whatever the director says is whatever it is.

Li Teng took the mobile phone to import the file, then went to a nearby print shop, printed out more than a dozen copies of the script as requested by the director, and then hurried back to the shooting scene.

Two thousand words, each script is three pages.

"That's it? This is a 'script'? Do you know what a script is? At least it's a script!" The director weighed the three pages with a very dissatisfied expression on his face.

Li Teng wanted to punch the director in the fat face.

You asked me to write a book in one day? Do you think I'm a robot?

"The quality of the script is not the quality. A script is successful if it is exciting and attracts people. Otherwise, no matter how much you write, it will not attract the audience. No matter how much you write, it will be in vain, right?" Li Teng answered the director patiently.

"Okay, look at your performance. If it's not exciting, you'll be responsible for the losses." The director rolled his eyes, raised his hand, and called all the staff over.

Then, start shooting.

Filming starts now? Didn't you review the script?

Aren't you worried that what you're writing is a sex scene?

Li Teng couldn't help but complained wildly.
