The time agreed with Luo Ying and Jier is ten o'clock in the morning.The location is the Clothing Studio in the Russell District. The weather on this day is rare, the starry sky is deep, the sun is shining, and it is peaceful and serene. Ige and Tyne were walking together, the two sat in the tunnel car, each looked out the window, and neither of them spoke.Yige didn't know what Tyne was thinking, but his dissatisfaction and anger towards Tyne still persisted.The tunnel car drove smoothly and quickly, and the houses slid past Yige's eyes, but he didn't see anything, he just thought about the unpleasant conversation the night before and the door he slammed at the end.

So you didn't actually do anything? When he said this, Igten stood up from his seat, feeling ignorant in his heart. ……right. Didn't even try regionally? Only given to the New York Film Critics Association database.And the Royal Academy of Arts in London. To give, or sell to? sell to.Sell ​​finished chips, not solutions.One sold for nine million dollars and the other for seven million six million euros. So you made a lot of money? Big money doesn't count.This price is not high. Yige choked his throat for a moment.He stared at Tyne.Tyne looked expressionless, sank into the sofa, holding the goblet between three fingers, and looked at the glass indifferently.Iggy was pissed, and it hurt to think of the teacher's huddled body and Janet's tears before he died.The error in the picture split his imagination.He didn't know how Tain could be so calm and indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with him, and it didn't matter what he said.He held back his anger, hoping to continue the conversation, but the muscles in his back began to stiffen.

Are you just taking advantage of what the teacher bought with his life? I have no other way.The earth is different from Mars, and some things cannot be promoted. Profit, isn't it? Don't look down on profits.Thales is a large group with millions of employees worldwide. How much money can you make on someone selling your work? One cent. You don't want to give up a penny? a penny?Do you know how many pennies are produced in the world every year? But you already have various stores, parks and advertising revenue, why can't you give some of it away?You know, an open art space is good for everyone.

Yeah?Do you think other creators feel the same way? Real creators should think so. There was a slightly sarcastic smile on the corner of Tyne's mouth.He swung his glass and looked up at Ig. It seems, he said, that Arthur has passed on his fantasies to you. Yige suddenly became angry.He picked up his coat, slammed the door and went out.The pride in his heart was poured down by Tyne, and he felt the pain of being offended. He couldn't stand Tyne's attitude.With an attitude of being a bystander, Tyne easily brushed off the teacher's hopes like dust, which made Yige feel very resentful.To describe his teacher's dream as fantasy is to describe his choice as impractical and childish.Yige didn't want to do that.He can see the teacher alone, with a chip in his pocket, crossing the black star sea of ​​80 million kilometers, embarking on a lonely road of no return, and he can also think of the teacher looking at Mars at night, and Janet looking at the earth at the same time, separated by endless vacuum.He could see it all, and he didn't want to see them as meaningless things, knocking everything into the void with a single sentence.It was like a person pushing a black boulder up the slope and walking a long mountain road with difficulty, but was gently pushed down by a finger on the top of the mountain and rolled down.

Iger believed in the teacher's choice.True creators should welcome such a space.Yes, his income will be reduced, but he should know that with such an environment, his audience may increase tenfold.This is equivalent to giving the work a wider living space.What a real creator cares about is that someone knows how to appreciate his creation, and nothing else.Is this a fantasy?Iggy strode along the empty corridor, asking loudly in his mind.Profit, why can you only think about profit, you only know about expansion, expanding into an unstoppable empire, obsessed with numbers on paper, do you think this is called understanding the world?Businessman, you are just a businessman.

As Yige walked, he felt a lump in his throat.He hasn't been angry for a long time.Usually he always thinks that he understands the various mechanisms of the operation of reality and will not be angry.However, this night, the emotions that had been suppressed for many days poured out, making his heart fluctuate and impulsive. At this moment, Tyne stopped him behind him. Eagle, wait a minute. Yige stopped, turned his head, his face was stiff, he didn't know what Tyne was going to say.He saw Tyne standing at the door of his room, with one hand propped on the door frame, half-smiling, his face was like a cloudy and waxing moon illuminated by the wall lamp in the corridor.

Are you still going to the meeting tomorrow?Tyne asked. Go, of course.Eagle replied.That's it.why are you not going. Yes, of course, he thought to himself, why not. He suddenly calmed down and smiled inwardly.This is a great opportunity, he thought, why not go.I can thwart your plan tomorrow too, can't I?Thwarting your great business opportunities, exposing you, and then lightly laughing at you is all fantasy.How can such an opportunity be missed?He suddenly felt enlightened, calmed down, and walked back to the room steadily.This night I slept with tossing and turning dreams. Early the next morning, Ige got up very early, entered the database, found the personal spaces of Jill and Puranda, and browsed carefully.The database is a free warehouse, as long as you find a studio, you can see all works and information.After reading their resumes, assignments and self-statements, he became calm and enriched.He even saw all the technical parameters of Jill's clothing design, as long as he told Tyne, then this day's negotiation would no longer be necessary.But he kept his mouth shut with peace of mind.He had promised Janet to keep it a secret, and he didn't want Tyne to succeed at all.He wants to refute him with facts.

The weather was exceptionally fine.The tunnel car drove smoothly, and no one in the car spoke.The church and steeple villas passed by quickly outside the car window.The sun is shining outside the window, the starry sky is deep, there is no wind or sand, it is peaceful and serene. Yige looked at Tyne, and Tyne smiled at him nonchalantly. In fact, the quarrel of the previous night was not staged from the beginning.Ige came to Tyne's room in a sincere mood, and Tyne was rare and serious at first.They talked in low voices, depressed, and spent the first half hour with mutual remembrance of the old man.Tyne recalled his and Arthur's childhood friendship.Arthur was four years older than him. The two families lived next to each other, studied at the same school, and worked together.Arthur often took him skiing and offered him champagne at his graduation.They are very good partners. Arthur is the producer of several films, and Tyne is the producer. They won awards at the ceremony and sold well on the Internet.Later, when Arthur went to Mars, he didn't tell anyone about the cause and effect, but he told Tyne.Tyne knows more about the state of Mars than Iger.Under Arthur's guidance, Thales' holographic technology level surpassed that of any media group, so it was able to remain undefeated in the market. Tyne thanked Arthur from the bottom of his heart.They were lifelong friends, but even so, he made Arthur's last ten years a fantasy.

※※※ At ten o'clock in the morning, Ige followed Tyne into the studio on time. The first impression of the studio is that the colors are full and full.The artistic atmosphere is not too strong, but the various layouts are quite casual, giving people a sense of comfort that comes from a burst of inspiration and can be arranged at will.On the left wall hangs a huge picture frame, mostly portraits and graffiti.Badges of all sizes, including medals and souvenirs, hang crookedly on the right wall.Several human figures stand in the center of the room, wearing ornate or exotic unfinished clothing, with various parts of their bodies exposed.Colorful and transparent cushions of various shapes are scattered on the ground.Sunlight spreads evenly through the beige glass walls, making the interior look warm and bright.

When Yige and the others entered the house, there were already several children gathered in the house.Luo Ying, Jill and Puranda were sitting on the largest round inflatable cushion, reading a book.Puranda was on the left, Luo Ying was sitting in the middle, and the red-haired Jill was lying beside them. When she saw Ige and Tyne, she sat up, leaned her head on Luo Ying's shoulder, and looked at them curiously.Puranda's face was calm and he couldn't see anything.She had light blond hair, a very fair complexion, and was probably of pure Anglo-Saxon descent. Yige and Tyne sat on the small sofa prepared for them, facing the girls.There are some jumbled words on the opposite wall. When I first entered the room, Ig thought it was a meaningless conceptual puzzle, but when I sat down, I found that it was a complete sentence:

Iger thought it was funny.The sunlight slanted in, the walls were clean, the phrases were scattered, and the collage of sentences was like a gust of wind. Yige lowered his head slightly, and saw the electronic photo album on Luo Ying's lap, which showed the mountains and bamboo forests in the east, green and green, probably her photos on the earth, and she was showing them to Jill.There was a closed book beside her, and he was slightly surprised to see the title: The Myth of Sisyphus.The title of this book coincided with the image of the Rolling Stone in his mind last night, which made him feel quite a coincidence.He looked up at her, but she didn't look at him. Tyne started with the chat.When he saw Luo Ying's photo album, he began to ask Luo Ying about her life on earth. "Have you lived in both London and Paris?" "I lived there, but they were all short, a few weeks each." "Have you ever been to 'Dream Tour'? London, Paris, and Shanghai. Do you live nearer to Shanghai?" "Not too close. I've heard of it, but I haven't been there." Ji'er leaned on Luo Ying's shoulder and asked curiously: "What is Dream Journey?" Luo Ying replied: "Dream Journey is the pride of Thales Group. It is a dreamlike theme park that integrates spaceships, forests, rivers, fashion stages and food. It occupies a huge area. You can experience a movie, A legend, a life." "Wow," exclaimed Jill, "then why don't you go?" "Me?..." Luo Ying shook her head and said, "I forgot." Yige listened, and his heart skipped a beat.Luo Ying memorized the advertising slogans fluently, but lightly rejected the actual temptation, which resonated with him.If he hadn't witnessed the great appeal of the dream journey, he would not have known the tension of the gap.On the earth, the dream journey is like a dream. Most girls have either been there or have not been there. Few people are indifferent to it like Luo Ying. Luo Ying looked quiet and stubborn, she didn't seem to intend to spend time on such small talk, but said directly in a light and straightforward tone: "Mr. Tyne, Jill's design can not only be used as a dance skirt, but also Make all kinds of clothes. The fabric itself is very light and loose, and the weave is loose, so breathability is not a problem.” "Well," Tyne smiled slightly, "I can tell." "Its color change is an intrinsic property, and it can change color in different ways under different light sources." "Interesting." "It's also not difficult to process." "Very good. But wait a minute." Tyne smiled, and leaned forward with a smile, "I fully believe that this is a very talented design, and it would be a great honor for me to act as an agent. It's just... I want to know, what are your expectations?" "Expectation? What aspect do you mean?" "For example, expect us to pay? Our agency?" Luo Ying smiled softly, as if to reassure Tyne, and said generously: "There is nothing special. As long as the official exchange is officially exchanged, there is nothing else. We will not interfere with matters on the earth, and Taylor will be completely in charge." Just be responsible." "That is... the complete transfer of intellectual property rights?" "You can understand it that way." Tyne nodded and leaned back on the back of the sofa.He seemed very satisfied, but also seemed to be thinking.He was smiling and unmoving, but Ig could see a tinge of suspicion in his smile.He was thinking about Luo Ying's purpose.This is Tyne's excellence, he never underestimates the person sitting opposite him.Although Luo Ying is just a little girl, Tyne still thinks seriously in his heart.He couldn't see what Luo Yingtu was talking about, so he didn't express his opinion easily.Iger knew that one of Tyne's principles was to give his opponents what they deserved, and that was his way of continuing to make money.When the other party declares that he doesn't want anything, he will think more carefully than ever.He believes that such people are generally divided into two types, who are completely ignorant of the situation or have deeper hidden behind it, with the latter being the majority.So he didn't just accept benefits casually. Tyne was not in a hurry, he smiled like a primary school principal looking at a student, trying to keep the conversation going in a relaxed manner.He began to ask Luo Ying about her hobbies in her spare time, and about Jill's usual classes.His aquiline nose makes him look sharp at certain times and ulterior motives at others. "Such a good work, did you give it a name?" he asked Jill. "No...not yet." "Then let's make one for it. How about calling it 'Yiaomiao'? Piaomiao...like the night sky, which just corresponds to Mars. The advertisement can be written like this: let the sleeves take you to the sky, watch the solidified melody, and the flowing painting. how do you feel?" Jill was obviously not familiar with the language of any advertisement, and it was probably the first time she heard such compliments, her face blushed suddenly, like a chubby little apple: "Do you really think it's so good?" At this moment, Yige knew that he had to say something. The sun shines into the room from the wide walls and sprinkles on the warm and bright floor. The children in the distance start to eat desserts, and the coffee bar in the corner of the studio emits bursts of moving cheese aroma.The air in the room seemed unusually sweet, a bit ironic, intentionally or unintentionally blurring all the differences behind it, it seemed that everyone was enjoying mutual compliments, hoping to push the situation towards a gorgeous fashion feast.Ji'er was laughing, elated by Tain's carefully described prospect, and Luo Ying sat quietly behind her, neither interrupting nor commenting.Her face looked extremely fair in the sun, and even her lips were a little pale.Ig watched her, her dark eyes thoughtful as usual.He didn't know her motives, but he didn't want to see Tyne follow the plan, step by step, turn the girl into an ally and turn it into a profit. He stood up, cleared his throat, and decided to intervene in the conversation. "Jill," he smiled at Jill, "may I call you that? Thank you. I would like to take the liberty of asking, can anyone customize the works you usually release?" "Of course." Jill blinked. "Can I too?" "Okay. . . . I don't know. Of course I think it's all right." "Then can you make one for me?" "Yeah, ok, great! I'll take your measurements right now." Jill jumped up happily and ran to a nearby cabinet to find the tape measure.Iggy stood up, raised his arms, and rotated them from side to side, allowing Jill to measure him from all angles, shoulder width, arm length, chest circumference, waist circumference.Jill is very serious, reading the numbers accurately, chanting words while measuring, and entering the recorded data into the electronic notebook.The two moved quickly and devoted themselves wholeheartedly, as if they had a tacit understanding.The rest of the people looked at them with a little surprise.Their thoughts were interrupted by the sudden enthusiasm of the two men, and neither of them spoke. Iggy smiled and tried to talk to Puranda while letting Jill measure it.He pointed to the collection of poems on her lap with his eyes, and asked briefly, "Do you like writing poems?" Puranda nodded lightly: "Yes. I don't write much, but I like it very much." "Then do you think it is a happy thing for your works to be displayed quietly, waiting, and one day they will suddenly be seen by someone who understands them?" "Of course, of course. It is all my happiness." Yige nodded and said nothing more.Puranda's slender cheeks carried a kind of pure childishness, her seriousness was lovely, and her hands were pale and slender on the dark blue skirt on her knees.He has read her poems, full of enthusiasm and confusion, childish, but can see sincerity.He looked at Tyne, and Tyne looked at him too, with a haughty smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was completely indifferent. "Okay. It's all measured." Jill put away the tape measure. "Thank you. When can I get it?" "Two days will do. I'll draw the drawings, take the drawings and parameters to the processing workshop, and it will be ready soon." "How much does this dress cost?" "It's not expensive, it's not expensive." Jill quickly waved her hands as if to argue, "The craft is not difficult, and the raw materials are not rare. Pierre said that this kind of film and filaments are usually made very well in their studio. Proficient, but making clothes is too childish for them, so I don't usually do it." She smiled sheepishly as she spoke, as if she was afraid that he would take back her request, "Don't worry, it's not expensive." He looked at her with a smile and asked, "Do you like having many people order your designs?" "Of course!" Jill said. "I'm low on citations right now." "Then do you know what fate your clothes will have on earth?" "destiny?" "Your new material will never be customized by many people, and can only be worn by a few people." "Why? Aren't there many people on Earth?" Iger said in a deliberately storytelling tone: "Tyne will hide it. The average person does not know how it is made, and can't buy it. He will only produce a very small amount, and then put it on the ground. It's very expensive." Jill was really confused: "Why?" He smiled slightly: "Let me ask you first, how do you set the price?" "Raw materials, and machine processing time." "It's not like that in our place. He has the final say in our place, and he can decide as much as he wants." "How can this work?" "As long as someone buys it." "But the price is so high, how can anyone buy it?" "There will be." Yige's tone was full of confusion, and he himself thought it was funny. Before that, he didn't know that he was good at telling the story of the big bad wolf to the little girl. "He doesn't have to be cheap, he can use other methods Advise people to buy." "In what way?" "He didn't let any other company produce it, and then deliberately set the price extremely high, so that only a small number of people could get access to it, so that artificially created class differences, and then it became extremely glorious, and became a status symbol. Then people rushed to buy it. That's the classic Tyne way." "But it's not fair," Jill said earnestly. "All men are created equal." Ige smiled: "That's what I said, but if you think about it, if people are really equal, who will always want to buy it all the time? The gap is the driving force. It is to make some people always unable to buy it, so that people will always buy it." Want to buy it. Tyne will pretend that this kind of clothes represents a personality, and wearing it you can get a wonderful personality, a high-level personality, a personality full of thoughts, and become a little princess of Mars." "But it's not true!" it was Puranda who interrupted this time. "That's right, and I know it's not true." Iggy smiled and continued, feeling a sense of accusation in his heart, "But many girls like you believe it is true. They follow his command and don't care about anything except clothes and accessories." I don’t want to, my heart is empty, I only keep buying famous brands in my mind, and I think this is my soul.” "Enough." At this time, what Yige didn't expect was that Luo Ying suddenly stood up and interrupted them, "Mr. Yige Lu, I think you are exaggerating. Girls on earth love to buy clothes True, but I don't think they lost their souls." "You are a girl after all." Ige said calmly, "You have your perspective, and Tyne has Tyne's. Jill, let me tell you, don't you value the citation rate the most, then you will definitely be disappointed. Tyne will never show your design for everyone to admire. He will use it as a strategic weapon, a personal weapon, a weapon for creating class differences, and he uses this method to control the girls and make money from them , so that he can gain incomparable power." "How can this be!" exclaimed Jill. "It's bad! I can't give it to him! I can't help him like this." Luo Ying seemed extremely stubborn.Her dark eyes looked straight at Ig. "It won't be like this. I believe that this technology will be shared on Earth, and Mr. Tyne will not use it." She said and turned to Tyne. "I believe that." Iggy was a little surprised.He admitted that his words were shallow and exaggerated, but he did not think they were false.Everyone knows the religion and hierarchy of consumption. These things are nothing in the 22nd century. The strategies of businessmen have been recognized. These strategies are the pride of businessmen, and they are called consumer psychology.At least Tyne himself never cared. "Wouldn't that be the case?" He asked Luo Ying back, "Then let's ask Mr. Tyne himself." He also looked at Tyne, and he believed that Tyne would confirm his words.Tyne doesn't lie, and he won't lie because of other people's irony. As he expected, Tyne nodded easily and said: "Yes, I will create some levels, but I don't think there is any injustice in this." He looked leisurely and unhurried, still leaning on the sofa, as if Watch a drama that has nothing to do with you, and give some comments at will after watching it. "Why are you so indifferent?" Ji'er was annoyed, "I won't give it to you!" She took Luo Ying's hand and said, "Shall we not give it to him?" Yige's goal has been achieved.His only purpose for this day was to thwart Tyne's commercial wheels and let him know that many creators actually care more about value than profit, and his purpose has been achieved.However, he couldn't be happy.Because at the moment of his success, he saw Luo Ying's complicated eyes. Luo Ying didn't speak, but just kept looking at him, with an inexplicable complaint in her eyes, but also a trace of tiredness and helplessness.Her eyelashes are black and long, covered by the long hair on her forehead, like fine grass in the valley, swaying silently by the spring.She didn't say a word, just bit her lips quietly, her eyes vaguely said: Why are you like this, you don't know anything.Yige's heart shuddered.He asked himself if he really knew nothing.Her eyes were like a pool of cold water, cooling his angry fighting spirit, and he didn't know what was under the water.He suddenly hesitated. Luo Ying lowered her head, patted Jier's hand, nodded gently, and sat down in silence.
