I'm a Director, I'm Not Bad Chapter 126

  Chapter 126 124. Utopia

   "What? Is your album finished?"

   Did not answer directly, Xu Xin asked directly.

   "No, I will start filming the MV next month. So it will be very busy... That's why I asked you if you want to come here for a while?"

  Does Xu Xin believe it?

  He really didn't believe it.

   So he simply came up with a sentence:

   "The relationship between our two brothers, if you have something to say, just tell me, what's the matter?"

   "...No, just to ask if you two have any plans to travel."

   "Argued with Patty?"

  The silence on the other end of the phone made Xu Xin feel confident.

   Then said:

   "Quite noisy?"

   "It's just... okay. It's just bickering."

   "Isn't that still a quarrel?"

"Well…"

   Leaning on the radiator in the corridor, Xu Xin said:

   "It's okay to quarrel and quarrel, as long as you don't have pimples in your heart. Calm down for a while, and then buy something she likes to eat or drink the most. Our gentlemen keep a low profile, and there is nothing wrong with it. Right?"

   "...Please, are you my friend?"

  Hearing this, Xu Xin couldn't help laughing:

"Ha~ What can I do then? Advise you to break up with her directly? I can't do this. Anyway, with me, I will definitely advise you to keep your head down. A buddy can't just tell you: Hey, we broke up Well, the next one is better. So who am I?"

"well…"

  Jay Chou on the other end of the phone let out a long sigh.

   means inexplicable.

   But don't continue to talk in depth on this topic.

   Instead, he asked another question:

   "Hey, are you really not coming? Don't you always want to see Betel Nut Xi Shi? There are so many hot girls this season~"

  Xu Xinxin is lucky that Yang Mi is not here now.

   Otherwise, she can bite my head off just by saying this to you.

  But he could hear that the matter between the two of them seemed to be quite serious this time.

  But right now he obviously doesn't want to say anything, and Xu Xin can't help it.

  Whether it's a buddy or a good friend, sometimes what needs to be blended is not the relationship between the two, but the role of a glue.

  There are only two people who can really get out of the emotional dilemma.

  So he rolled his eyes and said in a relaxed tone:

   "Don't talk nonsense, I don't know much about betel nut beauties and Alishan hot girls."

   "I don't know how much you know?"

   "...You have nothing to do, you have something to say, you have to fart, I have a meeting here!"

   "Fuck, I just want you to travel."

   "I can't go, it's not that you don't know what I'm busy with. Where can I sneak in time to travel?"

   "...tsk."

   "Okay, is there anything else? I'll hang up. It's really a meeting here."

   "Okay, hang up then."

   "Well, go bow your head and apologize, do you hear me?"

   "...are you really my friend?"

   "Just because it's your friend, I asked you to bow your head and apologize. It's not your friend, I advised you to break up."

   "...hang up, contact again."

"Um."

  Hung up the phone, Xu Xin really moved a little bit to travel to Wanwan Province.

pity…

  The time is wrong.

  Have a chance... If you have a chance, you should take him to see the Betel Nut Xishi together.

  He is too curious about these young ladies.

   While thinking, he walked into the still smoky conference room.

  After Jay Chou's phone call that day, about three days later, Xu Xin called back and asked how it was...

  Unfortunately, the other party was recording a song, and Dani picked it up.

   Dani said that JAY brother will call him back later.

   But when he came back, Xu Xin was buried in his girlfriend's arms and couldn't get out, so he didn't answer. When I went back to the past, Jay Chou was already saying "it's okay".

  As soon as he heard that it was all right, Xu Xin put the matter behind him.

  In a blink of an eye, June is coming to an end.

  July also inexplicably slipped away between people's fingers.

  The hottest August is coming quietly.

   Early in the morning.

   "Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"

   "Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

  The sound of breathing and beating resounded in the courtyard.

  Xu Xin opened his eyes with a look of displeasure:

   "Please, can you have a sense of public morality! What kind of boxing do you practice when you get up early in the morning!?"

   Following his words, soon, the bedroom door was pushed open.

  Wearing a sportswear, the girl with sweat on her forehead walked in with a smile:

   "You're awake..."

When    came in, she was still wiping sweat with her wristband, and the protective bandage on her hand hadn't been removed yet.

  Xu Xin was speechless:

   "Don't you want to die last night? You said you can't move, and you won't be able to get up tomorrow. Where do you get the energy to wake up in the morning and practice boxing?"

   "It's called not practicing boxing for a day, understand."

   Probably wiped the sweat off her face, the girl with a blush in her milky white skin directly took off her wristband, lifted the quilt, and rode on her boyfriend's waist with a smile:

   "Wake up now?"

   After getting to know each other for almost two months, Xu Xin knew immediately what his girlfriend wanted to do.

   With a smirk, she put her hands behind her head and let her stare at herself condescendingly:

   "I don't remember, what should I do? Sleep with me for a while?"

   "No, I have to go to practice in a while, Tingting will come to pick me up soon... How about tying you up and waiting for me to come back?"

   Swaying her waist, she squinted her eyes with a contented expression.

  Xu Xin didn't say a word, just looked at her duplicity.

  Then it was sunny and thin, and it was a long day of greed.

  After waiting on the road outside Shijia Hutong for nearly an hour, Sun Ting finally saw "that ghost" coming out of the door.

   "I'm leaving, remember to dry the laundry, don't use the dryer, it's sunny today, let's dry it more."

   While speaking, she opened the door of Santana's co-pilot.

  Shirtless, with clearly visible abdominal muscles, Xu Xin stood at the door, waving like an old father sending his daughter off to school.

   Xu Dashao, who had exercised a lot in the morning, felt refreshed.

  Not to mention, I don't go to work today on Saturday.

  Adding that time was a bit delayed, he casually took bread and milk for breakfast, and walked into the study with a simple egg sandwich that didn't even have ketchup on it.

   First, I opened Youku habitually, and then found the "Not Drunk" micro-movie in my favorites. After clicking on it, I didn't even read the content, and just slid down to the message board.

   Turned back a few pages, starting from the message after 6:00 last night.

  After the launch of Youku, it seems that the momentum is very good.

  Although I don't know much about the Internet, I can honestly say that Youku's videos rarely freeze when loading, and the interface is much more comfortable to use than Tudou.

  So from the launch in June to the current August, all kinds of videos have increased at a speed visible to the naked eye.

  As a film that is "strongly supported by shareholders", "Not Drunk" has been recommended since the station opened.

  Big recommendations are replaced by small recommendations, and small recommendations are replaced by paged recommendations. It can be said that it has never disappeared from people's sight.

   As his own work, Xu Xin habitually wants to see everyone's comments.

   At the beginning, perhaps because of the small number of people on the website, the evaluations in the first few days were all "good reviews" from Qing Yishui.

  Such as "What is a micro-movie?" or "It was fun to shoot, haha." Or "What kind of movie clip is this?" and so on.

   It seems that everyone didn't try to understand what a "micro-movie" short film is, but just regarded it as an ordinary story.

  Xu Xin didn't reply either.

   Just looking at everyone's encouragement, I feel very happy.

   But later, as the number of people on the website increased, a group of people came out of nowhere and started to spray.

   "What was filmed? How dare a drunk man say it's a movie from what he saw in a KTV?"

   "Who is that dancing beauty? Does anyone know?"

   "Look, trash."

   "Stop insulting the movie, okay? What **** was filmed."

  Then...Xu Xin was upset.

  How awesome are you? You scold me?

  He does not have the consciousness of Guo Degang that "half of the money I make is the money I get scolded".

  Who cares about you?

   I don't want your money, and I don't want anything from you. Even if there are flaws in the photographed things, can you speak well?

  You point out the shortcomings, let's chat calmly.

   Cursing when you come up?

  Why are you so awesome?

  So, anyone who scolded him, he started to line up with others.

  When someone called "Not Drunk" garbage, he replied "What kind of garbage are you? What kind of garbage" and so on.

   If there are some comments such as a plant or an animal, he will also spray.

   Anyway, I'm not used to it.

  Once someone scolds him, if he reprimands him, someone will naturally insult him again.

  The quality of netizens these days is that everyone is the eldest brother, not the second brother, so don't feel dirty, win first and talk about it.

   Come and go, the entire "Not Drunk" comment area was a bit smoky for the first month.

   Then...Xu Xin got angry.

  There are so many people, I can't scold you, but I have authority over your head office, right?

  So I asked my dad for the phone number of the person in charge of these things on Youku, and blocked several accounts internally.

   After typing a few lines of code, even if this group of people leave a message, it cannot be displayed. As a authority dog, he caught others and sprayed them to death.

   As a result, I couldn't stand it anymore, and I applied for an account again.

   Adding new audiences... Seeing that Xu Xin couldn't manage it, he simply formed a habit.

  Wake up early in the morning for the first round, and spray someone to cheer up.

   Refreshing.

   Then go out, whether you are going to work or busy with other things, wait until you come back at night to accumulate a few pages of messages, and then continue to reply.

   They come and go again, not to mention... It really formed a very strange phenomenon.

  The group of people who sprayed the most ruthlessly started by simply greeting each other's family members. Then, there are a few who should be neutral viewers... After posting several long comments in a row, after analyzing the things in those rooms, Xu Xin specially asked the people from Youku to change the number of words in his comment column from 200 to 1000.

  The only work on the site that can post long comments is his here.

   Then he began to quote those few neutral film critics, mocking the group of people, "You can't even understand it, so you are worthy of shouting here? Go home and fuck."

   Just inadvertently picked up knowledge as a weapon and sprayed people.

   Those big brothers don't know whether they were annoyed or they discovered a new continent...

   Then various long comments began to be sent out.

  Neutral fans talk about the metaphor of each room, and I will talk to you about how embarrassing the acting skills are. It is embarrassing for others to correct your acting skills, so I will compare a certain work with you...

  The floor began to crooked.

   I don't know what's going on, everyone changed from greeting parents directly to Wendou. You said that you realized how poor you were in the first room, and I will tell you whether real poverty is money wealth or inner poverty.

  You told me that migrant workers encounter heartache and grievances when they go out, and they should go forward bravely and strengthen their confidence in difficulties. I will talk about specific cases with you, and use the cold reality to express that your making this micro film is destined to be just a castle in the air, a naive fantasy.

   Anyway.

  Obviously at the beginning, everyone was just saying "you're filming rubbish", "I'm filming rubbish? Then you shoot it" or "you're a **** director", "you're a **** audience".

  But the current "Not Drunk" comment area is like a hodgepodge.

  What social reality, philosophy of life, philosophical thoughts, ancient and modern Chinese and foreign things...

   A group of netizens who don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement gather here every day.

  Everyone seems to have changed from "I will die for you" and "I will not die, you will die for me" at the beginning to become sympathetic opponents.

   It's kind of amazing.

  Among them, some of the most persistent buddies simply started playing daily greetings for Xu Xin.

   "Morning, trash director."

   "Morning, trash viewer."

   "Just finished drinking, **** it, I'm not feeling well, come here and scold you **** director."

   "Just coaxed my girlfriend to fall asleep, you guys don't have a girlfriend, right? You can't find a partner's garbage."

   It's like this, it seems to become a habit every day.

  As for being angry...Xu Xin stopped being angry a long time ago, but he still likes to flip through the comment section of "Not Drunk".

  Because... to be honest, netizens are really talented.

  In the past month, he has gained a lot of knowledge.

  Whether it is from the perspective of a movie, or some humanistic thinking.

   After finishing the daily "daily" greetings, Xu Xin clicked on his own script.

  To be honest, Xu Xin has already designed the main story line of the script, which has not yet been named, and now he is carving out the story line of the sub-camera, and his enemies have really helped to smooth out a lot of ideas.

  After the entire story line is clear, the rest is how to express the tension of the script.

   It actually took a lot of time to polish the script in this area.

  For example, it is just a simple plot of walking up the mountain to find the child. If Xu Xin from the past came to shoot, it might be to give a long shot, and the shot of an actor going up the mountain would be over.

But now he can use interspersed shots of far, near, and close-ups, and wants to add some lens language to this paragraph, to express from the side the anger of this taciturn father, from the child running around, to the fact that no one can be found. restless...

   How should these behave? What lens language is used to express? After waiting for a series of things, he really got a lot of inspiration.

  The whole morning passed like this.

  After eating lunch and drinking a pot of tea, he took out the clothes he had forgotten about from the washing machine and put them on the drying rack in the yard.

  I have my own clothes, as well as the tight sports suit that my girlfriend wears.

   After drying, I drove directly to the health club.

  The past month has been uneventful, and his daily life is also very regular.

  Practice three times a week to build muscle and keep fit.

  Normal work, normal life.

   So much so that Xu Xin himself forgot when was the last time he went to a KTV or bar to be chic.

   There is a sense of "my youth is completely over".

  But... To be honest, he really likes this kind of regular life.

  When I arrived at the gym, I warmed up first, and after the warm-up was over, I started to build muscle under the guidance of Coach Yufei.

   There are indeed many benefits of fitness.

   For example, make your body healthier and look more stylish.

   Another example is when you can wear various suits that make you buy a few extra pieces like your girlfriend is crazy, it will look very decent and beautiful.

   Especially the training of lower body strength and core strength. At the same time as the so-called mermaid line, vest line, abdominal muscle washboard, etc., it can also ensure that the sweet life with your girlfriend can make her feel so happy every time, and she is so obsessed with you that she can't wait to cling to you every day.

   In short, there are many benefits.

   Soon, a class is over.

  Xu Xin was holding up a large water bottle that looked like a barbell and was drinking heavily when he heard a sound:

   "Are you two over?"

  He turned his head to look, put down the kettle and greeted with a smile:

   "Teacher Yu."

   It's not Yu Zhen, it's not Yu Qiang, it's Yu Feihong.

  After returning from Hengdian, Xu Xin, who practiced steadily three times a week, met each other several times in the gym.

  Those who come and go once in a while, although I dare not call them friends, at least I can say hello to each other here.

   "Hmm~"

  Yu Feihong responded, and his gaze swept across Xu Xin's arms and legs, who was wearing a vest and shorts.

   Coach Yufei next to him also nodded:

   "Just finished, let's warm up first?"

   "No hurry...Xiao Xu, play two rounds in a while?"

"OK."

  Xu Xin nodded.

  Yu Feihong was talking about tennis.

   One day after Xu Xin came to the gym, the sister's golf friends seemed to be indifferent, so she asked Xu Xin if he wanted to play a round.

  Xu Xin had never touched this thing before, so he gave it a try, and agreed with the mentality of learning.

   Then he changed from a tennis player who was flying all over the sky to a "barely qualified" opponent who could occasionally win a game.

   Anyway, it's all about exercising.

  This sister comes to the gym mainly for yoga, Pilates + tennis, but rarely does equipment.

   "Okay, see you at the gym after finishing yoga in a while."

"okay."

  Xu Xin responded, watched the two leave, and then walked directly to the rock climbing area.

  He's been a bit obsessed with this lately.

   And an hour later, he looked at this 71-year-old sister wearing a tennis skirt, white shoes, white sports socks and a white sweatshirt, and he had to feel a lot of emotion...

   It's really freezing age.

  It looks like a girl in her early twenties.

  Pure and lustful.

   "Have you finished reading the book I sent you?"

  Holding the pink tennis racket and hitting the tennis ball again and again, she asked Xu Xin who was opposite.

"not yet."

   Clutching more than 10,000 Wilsons in his hand, Xu Xin shook his head:

"To be honest, it's too esoteric. After a while, you have to think about it for a while...Maybe it's a translation problem? I don't like the sense of reading long paragraphs. So I read very slowly. But I have to admit that Plato's thinking is very advanced. And now I have read the third chapter, which is the last volume of "Righteousness and Justice". In my heart, I don't quite agree with his view of idealized justice."

  Last month, when this sister was waiting for Xu Xin to play tennis, she asked Xu Xin how the script was designed.

  Xu Xin told her that the main storyline was designed, but after the story was written, she always felt that the justice in the script had not been done in the true sense. Because while he was designing, he unconsciously added some very obscure hearsay.

  Those are some of the stories that Xu Xin heard from hearsay when he was growing up.

  Ask Dad, Dad will definitely say he doesn't know. But they can always be chatted up after a few uncles are drunk.

  The human nature of these stories is very complicated. It is impossible to talk about who is absolutely good or absolutely bad. These stories were picked and picked by Xu Xin and added to the story line of the whole script.

  At the beginning, I just wanted to shoot, but I found out at the end... If these buried story lines are not dug deep and justice is done, then the tone of the whole play will have a kind of... very paradoxical feeling.

  Although the villain was finally brought to justice, he was only convicted on one case. And those other stories he added to were hidden.

   It seems... Although the French Open is extensive and not missing, it still "leaked" some.

  He thought about mentioning and excavating again, but those stories are different things, which don't match the whole script.

   will appear particularly lengthy, and can not distinguish between primary and secondary.

   Those few days happened to be the few days when the entire main storyline was designed, and it happened that this sister just asked this question.

   After hearing Xu Xin's words, Xu Xin was sent a book by Coach Yu Fei during his second practice this week.

  The name of the book is called "Utopia".

  The coach said that this sister was sent over by someone and asked to give it to herself.

  Xu Xin started to read after taking it home.

   And the opening sentence of this immortal masterpiece written by Plato is:

  “Discussion about justice: Since I don't know what justice is, it's difficult for me to know whether justice is a virtue. Of course, it's also difficult to know whether having justice is a kind of happiness.”

  Xu Xin immediately felt that this sentence was very interesting.

  But immediately there was a slight guilty conscience... I felt that the teacher might have overestimated my knowledge reserve, and sent a book with such a profound beginning.

But who knew that after reading it, I found out that it was not something profound at the beginning of the article, but that Plato, who had participated in a goddess sacrifice, was on his way home when he was stopped by a servant named Clophas and invited him to read it. Conversational flow article for a wise man's talk at home.

  From the dialogue, several people come to express their views on justice, justice, truth, etc.

   At first glance, it is easy to understand.

  But after Xu Xin finished reading half a chapter, he didn't continue to read, but read it again from the beginning...

  He read the first chapter for two days, trying to understand the ideas expressed by Plato and Clophas in "Utopia" over and over again...

  So, recently, the reading material in his hand is this book.

   During the period, I watched and understood over and over again.

  Read very slowly.

   But this book is really interesting to read.

   It means helping Xu Xin improve the story in his script bit by bit from another height.

  After hearing his words, Yu Feihong nodded:

   "Normal, take your time~ Did I serve?"

  She didn't talk about the contents of the book at this time.

   Playing tennis.

   Then have fun.

   After seeing Xu Xin spread her legs and set up a defensive action, her dress was fluttering, and a yellow-green tennis ball made a "bang" sound and flew towards Xu Xin...

   Played five innings.

  Sitting on the chair in the water bar, Xu Xin shook open the protein powder and drank it down, then asked Yu Feihong who was sitting opposite him:

   "Where did Teacher Yu come into contact with this book? A bookstore?"

   "No, it was recommended by the book club."

   "Book club...what is it?"

"Um?"

   Now it was Yu Feihong's turn to be stunned:

   "There is no reading club in Beiying now?"

"I do not know either."

  Xu Xin shook his head, picked up the big bucket and took another big gulp of water.

   "What do you do every day at school? What extracurricular activities do you not participate in?"

   "I'm on leave of absence."

  Yu Feihong was a little dazed, and the two of them didn't mention it when they knew each other... During this period of time when they started to communicate, they really didn't talk much about school matters.

   "Why did you suspend school?"

   "Because I have to be busy with other things, I temporarily took a leave of absence from school."

"Well…"

  Seeing that Xu Xin didn't make it clear, she didn't ask, but continued to explain:

   "There are also reading clubs in Beiying, where everyone gathers every half month or a month to share something they have read recently. It can be regarded as encouraging each other and promoting progress, so it is quite useful."

   "Will your reading session be someone in school?"

   "No, the people in the school are going all over the place, and they can't get together."

  The woman shook her head slightly:

   "I was also introduced by a teacher I knew before... Why? Are you interested?"

  Xu Xin nodded:

"There must be. It sounds very fresh. For example, I watched "Utopia" and then I went to the book club to share it. People who are not interested may become interested in reading it. Then others Say...for example, read a copy of "Three Kingdoms" or something, share it, if I am interested, I will buy it and read it?"

"right."

  Yu Feihong nodded:

   "There is actually this kind of thing in Beiying School, and I also have the habit brought out from school. It's quite useful, and sometimes it's better than just looking at it by yourself. You can look for it and try."

   "Hmm... that sounds really interesting."

  Yu Feihong didn't say anything like “Come and have a look at my reading club” or Xu Xin said “I can go to your place”.

   Not necessary.

  If the level is not enough, there is no point for Xu Xin to go to other people's reading clubs.

  You can't understand what they say...

   At that time, everyone will be embarrassed.

  This kind of reading club sounds like a very small group of things, relying more on individuals, rather than being as casual as "I'll take you to a friend's party".

   When Yu Feihong saw the thoughtful young man, he also nodded secretly.

   It's okay, this kid is quite clear about the size of interpersonal relationships.

   While drinking water and resting, the two chatted for a while, and then Yu Feihong left. And Xu Xin also went upstairs for a massage.

   What I want is a male technician...

   Not that he's sexist or anything.

  Before I asked for a male technician because I was afraid that I would be distracted and embarrassed.

   But now that he has a girlfriend, that aspect doesn't exist. But I began to dislike the female technician's lack of hand strength...

  He really enjoys the strength of the male technician.

  After the massage, and a good bath, he drove home exhausted.

  Last night, my girlfriend lied to my parents to "go to an audition" to stay here for one night, so as to relieve the itch of missing.

   But forget about it today.

  Hold your pillow honestly.

   After arriving home all the way, he was taken aback...

business car?

  Dad is here! ? Looking at the commercial vehicle parked by the side of the road, Xu Xin pushed the door open.

   opened directly.

   Then he met Xu Daqiang who was holding a stainless steel basin with a plate of peanuts in it.

   "Dad? Why are you here?"

"Um…"

  Xu Daqiang smiled and nodded:

   "What? Dad can't come?"

   As he said that, for some reason, Xu Daqiang glanced at the abrupt clothes-drying pole in the yard...

  Xu Xin followed his gaze.

  The corner of his mouth suddenly twitched...

  My girlfriend's sports underwear and shorts after working out in the morning are fluttering in the wind on the clothes rail...

  His eyes became a little embarrassed.

  But Xu Daqiang smiled and waved:

   "Come to eat, eat water noodles today! Dad brought it from home, beat it yourself~"

Um.

  Big summer's...

  Don't care if there is a baby girl to take care of the son.

  In order to avoid heatstroke, the water surface must be like slurry~

   Ask for a monthly pass! ! The 14th update is awesome! !
