"It's not that I suddenly want to make it. I have had this idea for a long time, but I haven't encountered a suitable script, so I haven't thought about it. Some time ago, someone showed me a script. I think it's good. I was thinking about preparing it, and then I saw your Weibo."

After hearing this, Du Qianze was slightly stunned and found that his luck had improved a lot since he met Fang Yi. If Li Yao really chose the animals in the pet shop for the role in this TV series, Li Yao would owe him a favor. The favor of a big director was very valuable.

"Actually, I didn't like animals at first, but something happened later, which changed my view of them." Li Yao was about to say it when there was a slight knock at the door.

After opening the door, assistant director Fang Yan stood at the door.

"Is Director Li in there? I have something to ask him." Fang Yan asked.

"Inside, inside, come in and have a cup of tea." It was rare that both the director and assistant director came, Hai Yang hurriedly invited them in, and washed a plate of the bought fruits and put them on the table.

"Director Li, I have a few questions about tomorrow's filming..." Fang Yan stopped talking about the rest, because it was difficult for him to say anything with outsiders around.

"Director Fang, come and sit here, I'm just about to tell a story." Li Yao patted the chair next to him and asked Fang Yan to sit down.

It seemed that Li Yao was going to finish the story first, and Fang Yan sat down next to Director Li helplessly.

"Let me tell you, when I just got married, my wife picked up two small dogs from outside. Although they looked good, I thought they were too noisy and didn't want them. I argued with my wife several times and wanted her to throw the dogs away, but she refused."

When Li Yao said "when I just got married", Fang Yan knew what kind of story he was going to tell. He lay on the chair and held his forehead helplessly. It seemed that Li Yao was going to ask Du Qianze to film that animal drama. Li Yao told many people about his plan to film an animal drama. Every time he told this story, Fang Yan followed him and listened to it no less than ten times. He could recite the story by heart. He was forced to listen to it every time. It was really...

"Those two dogs are so cunning. They know I don't like them, so they always bully me when my wife is not around. I told my wife about it, but she didn't believe me. I hated the dogs even more. Later, my wife got pregnant. I thought I could find an excuse to send the dogs away this time, so I told my wife to send the dogs away. But my wife disagreed, so I didn't send them off.

"One day, I went out to attend an award ceremony. At that time, there was still a month before her due date. My wife said that she was trying to pick up something, but her foot slipped and she fell out. She was in so much pain that she couldn't move. Her cell phone was not with her. She was the only one at home at the time. Do you know who saved her later?" Li Yao asked mysteriously.

...this was really not difficult to guess at all, but Du Qianze still pretended to think for a while before replying, "It's the two dogs in your home."

"You are still smart. When I told Director Fang about it, he didn't guess it. Sure enough, young people still have flexible minds."

Fang Yan, who was only 35 years old, suddenly turned much darker.

"You must have thought that it was my two dogs who went out to ask for help. You are right, but you forgot one thing. My door was locked." Li Yao paused here and continued, "My wife told me that the two dogs kept licking her and pulling her to get up when they saw her fall, but she couldn't get up. She was so much in pain that she didn't even have the strength to speak.

"Then one of the dogs rushed to the door, but the door didn't open. Both dogs were short and couldn't reach the door handle when they stood up. They ran back and circled around my wife for a few times, but my wife fainted.

"Later, the neighbor who rescued my wife said that one of the dogs had an injured paw, and the other had a slight injury. There was blood everywhere they passed. When they arrived at my house, they found the door open, with a chair behind it and blood on the door handle. I guess the two dogs must have put in a lot of effort to open the door."

When Li Yao said this, he paused for a long time before continuing, "The neighbor called an ambulance and then called me. The doctor said that fortunately the fainting time was not long, otherwise both the adult and the child would be in danger..."

Du Qianze did not speak. When Li Yao's child was born, he also went to the hospital to see him. He knew the situation at that time. Because Li Yao's wife had an accident, the child's health was very poor when he was just born. He stayed in the hospital for half a year before returning home. In the past two years, his health had barely recovered.

"Director Li..." Although Li Yao had told this story many times, Fang Yan was still very moved every time he heard his dogs went out to ask for help regardless of themselves.

"From that time on, I realized that animals are the sincerest to people, and they will be with you whenever you need them."

This story was not unexpected, but it was still very touching. Du Qianze was silent for a while and asked, "Listening to Director Li's description, I think your dogs are also very smart. Why don't you find them..."

"Don't mention it. I seriously suspect that the story just now was made up by my wife to deceive me. My two dogs have always been stupid, but now my son can tease them." After Li Yao finished speaking, he quickly added, "But the story should be true. I also found it when I got home, both dogs' paws were injured. There was blood on the door handle, there was a chair at the door and blood outside the door.

"I also specially adjusted the surveillance of the community and found that it was indeed my two dogs who opened the door and went out to call people for help. Don't tell these words to outsiders, otherwise my wife will say that I don't believe her words."

"Understand, understand." The three people present nodded in unison, knowing that Li Yao was a henpecked husband.

"The owner of the pet shop is checking the pets in the shop right now, so he probably can't answer the phone. I'll call him later and I'll reply to you tomorrow." Although Du Qianze really wanted this to succeed, whether it could work or not still depended on Fang Yi.

"Okay, thank you for your help." Li Yao nodded, chatted with Du Qianze for a few more words, and left.
