I'm a Director, I'm Not Bad Chapter 241

   Chapter 241 239. Before the celebration (13)

  November 8, morning.

Today is the 50th anniversary of the West Film Studio. In order to celebrate, we specially chose the No. 1 studio in the old factory area of ​​the West Film Studio, which produced countless classic movies, as the venue. Reporters, celebrities from all walks of life, and colleagues who have worked with Xiying Studio, etc.

  The momentum of the scene is really not small.

   But the celebration starts at night.

   During the day, some staff preparing for the celebration are busy here.

   It turned the originally deserted Xiying Studio into a lively one.

  In Studio No. 3, which is about a hundred meters away from Studio 1, Xu Xin and Zhang Yimou were standing on the wooden floor of the studio and chatting.

   "The atmosphere of this movie, I plan to use the main axis of horror."

  Looking at Zhang Yimou who was frowning and thinking, Xu Xin pointed to the brightly lit restaurant scene ahead.

   "The filter may be darker, and the light is lowered by a dozen, huh~~~"

  He gestured in his hand, imitating that feeling in his mouth:

"The entire table, exquisite tableware, delicious food, etc., looks very warm. But there is no other lighting. If you go out of the range of the spotlight, it will be dark. Even if someone comes over, it will always be the first to hear this." kind of voice..."

   After stepping on the wooden floor under his feet and making a hollow sound, Xu Xin continued:

   "Let's hear the sound first, and the sound may have to be processed later."

   "Wrap around?"

   Zhang Yimou's words immediately got Xu Xin's nod:

"Yes! Surrounding it, it's like a beast hiding in the dark is making a threatening growl. Every footstep means that something bad will happen, but no one can hear where the sound is coming from." , and can't see through this darkness.”

  Following Xu Xin's description, Zhang Yimou didn't say a word, but left the range of the lights on his own, squinted his eyes and stood on the edge of the set room to look around.

   Immediately, his eyes fell on the brightly lit interrogation room.

   "After it is bright, don't exaggerate the atmosphere, but become a real horror?"

"Yes! The interrogation room should be brightly lit, especially if there is a scene that destroys Li Ningyu's self-esteem. Does the script say that Wutian made Li Ningyu naked? I have communicated with the director, and the lighting method is using shadowless lamps, which are clean and pure. "

   "But it also becomes more ruthless and cruel."

  Looking up, Zhang Yimou, who was standing in the interrogation room, nodded slightly as there were obviously more lights than the other sets.

   Seems very satisfied with Xu Xin's handling.

   But not exaggerating.

   Instead, he walked through all the corners carefully before expressing his own conclusion:

"The room between Li Ningyu and Gu Xiaomeng is more ambiguous. If you want to be ambiguous, you will lose warmth. The sister relationship between the two of them, ambiguity is just embellishment, and warmth is more like this cold and ruthless palace. That little bit of fire that is enough to warm people's hearts..."

   Speaking of this, he paused, shook his head helplessly, and lowered his voice a bit:

"Douyan is not such a fighting style. She is in the golden age of a woman. What is Yang Mi? A girl who hasn't grown up yet. If you use too much strength, you will definitely lose. Instead, it's better to be natural and walk with family affection." This way, the gap will be shorter than the ambiguity."

  If he had said anything else, Xu Xin must have been taught with an open mind.

   But he clearly disagrees with this.

   "I don't think there is a prettier girl in the world than her."

  The corner of Zhang Yimou's mouth twitched after eating a handful of dog food for nothing:

   "Do you know what beauty is in the eye of the beholder?"

   "Even if I'm not a lover, I still think Yang Mi is the prettiest in the world! What do you think?"

  Zhang Yimou was even more speechless.

  Heart said that I don't want me to think, I want you to think.

   shook his head slightly:

   "Listen to me or not, your **** is crooked to Erligang! If you want to say this, go tell Yang Mi and tell me what?"

  Xu Xinhan laughed.

   "Listen, listen, you have already opened your mouth, can't I listen..."

  Zhang Yimou was even more speechless. After looking at him angrily, he was a little relieved. Putting aside the movie or the real situation, he felt that Xiao Xu was doing well.

  In the eyes of beholders, don't you have to be Xi Shi?

   Nothing wrong with it.

  So, they turned around again, and after turning all the sets of "The Wind" around, the two of them also walked to the door.

  As soon as I went out, a gust of cold wind blew over.

  Xu Xin took out a cigarette from his down jacket, and heard Zhang Yimou ask:

   "What position did you arrange for?"

   "Deputy head of the actor troupe of the Art Creation Center. Formal employment contract with establishment."

"Um…"

  Hearing this, Zhang Yimou was relieved.

   Xu Xin thought for a while, and suddenly asked:

   "Director Zhang, many seniors came here today... Do I have to come early to say hello?"

  Unexpectedly, after Zhang Yimou heard this, he directly gave his completely opposite answer:

   "When they come to know you, don't take the initiative to say hello."

   “…is it appropriate?”

"Why is it inappropriate? What qualifications do you have now? Leaving aside the Olympic Games, except for one "Secret", there is nothing left? As for the people who came today, those who should have won the prize have won the prize, and the status that should have is already clear. You go to meet people, can they remember your name?"

  Looking at Xu Xin who was a little astonished, Zhang Yimou put his arms around his arms, looked at the factory area in front of him that was too familiar to be in, shook his head and said:

"So, there's no need. If you don't wake up in the future, people won't remember you. And if you wake up, thinking about how you greeted them politely today, who will have that kind of mentality after the passage of time?" I can't grasp it, maybe under the contrast, if you don't offend him, he will think you are a villain...

  Man, sometimes it's just that weird. So, no need. To be a director, you have to have the demeanor of being a director, not to mention that you are not short of money, and even the investors can't make you bow your head. A group of old guys who are half buried in the ground, what are you doing so diligently? "

  Xu Xin was dumbfounded.

   "What else is there to say?... Hidden rules?"

   "It's not an unspoken rule, it's just the experience I've learned from living up to now."

   Unscrewed the thermos cup in his hand, the water in the cup filled with smoke in the cold wind.

  The middle-aged man wearing a peaked cap took a sip of jasmine tea at a suitable temperature, and his tone was calm and calm:

"At the end of the day, it's nothing more than friends talking about friendship and business talking about interests. If you really need help, as long as you give him what he wants, he is not a friend but a friend. If you can't give him what you want, a friend who nods is also a stranger. You go and put that low What's the pose?"

   As he spoke, he shook his head, as if he had made a final conclusion, and put on the thermos again:

   "Your future lies with the audience, not here."

"…understood."

   After taking two puffs of cigarettes, Xu Xin nodded:

   "Then what should I do if someone comes to greet me?"

  Zhang Yimou looked strange for a while.

   After glancing at him, he said angrily:

   "Let him go away~!"

   "Hoo~"

  Xu Xin blinked, then nodded vigorously:

   "Okay. Let's do it! Take a dog, whoever comes over to say hello to me, I'll let the dog bite him!"

  Zhang Yimou shook his head helplessly, but there was a smile on his face.

   seems quite happy.

   At night, around the red carpet inside Studio One.

  The young man with the invited press card hanging on his chest looked around, and whispered to the middle-aged man next to him:

   "Brother Sun, will we have red envelopes today?"

  Brother Sun twitched the corner of his mouth, and looked at this young man who had been with him for more than a year and almost two years speechlessly:

"Are you looking for money? Why do you have to ask every time you go to a place? I understand that you asked me when you were the king of kung fu. You just entered the industry at that time. It's been almost two years. When can I get red envelopes? Why can't you tell the difference if you can't get the occasion?”

   "The salary is not enough to spend, Brother Sun! My partner is too good at spending money!"

  Young people are a little distressed.

  But Brother Sun's face turned even darker:

"Boy, you don't really think that the 18th-line actor is sincere to you, do you? Haven't seen it yet? She only follows you if you can make news. I hope you will put her picture on the article or in the photo. Can't you even see that?"

"…hey-hey."

  The young man was a little embarrassed when he was told by Brother Sun:

   "But...she's pretty."

   "The actresses coming tonight are prettier, why don't you go find them!"

  Brother Sun looked like he hated iron but not steel.

   But it's not easy to say harsh words,

   Can only shake his head helplessly:

   "You... oh, go back this time, report an extra set of film."

   "That's only a few hundred dollars..."

   "Buy cigarettes for you kid, so you won't be rubbing my cigarettes every day!"

   "Hey hey~ It's still Brother Sun, you are righteous."

  The young man hurriedly apologized, but he did not give up, and continued to ask:

   "Then... Do you think it is possible for us to get an interview?"

"...Don't think about it, do you think it was twenty years ago? Half of the entertainment industry will come to any celebration of Xiying Studio? It's not what it used to be. Today there are not many people, that is, the old faces of the fifth generation. People don't rely on this, who likes your interview."

   "Will that Zhang Yimou come?"

   "He will definitely come. No one will offend Lao Mouzi. There are countless smart people, how could he not come?"

   "People are not called Lao Mouzi now, they are called Guoshi."

  Hearing this nickname, Brother Sun was silent for a while, and then his eyes were filled with emotion:

   "Tsk, tsk, tsk...or maybe he is capable."

   As he spoke, he checked the camera, looked at the time on his watch, and said:

   "Okay, go grab a good seat, don't be like last time, you can't squeeze in the front, and you are scolded to death by the editor-in-chief."

  The young man nodded:

   "Okay!... But why hasn't Xiying Studio given us a guest list? This misses the point."

   "Whatever, just shoot."

7 o'clock.

  The red carpet officially begins.

   Studio 2, which was used as a temporary waiting area, was overcrowded.

  In fact, the most important thing for celebrities in various activities is the red carpet, because the red carpet can be photographed, and the photo can be used to appear.

Therefore, although today's Xiying Film Studio can't be called a front-line celebrity competing for beauty, everyone who can be invited has been invited on such a big day as the 50th anniversary. As far as the lineup in the circle is concerned, it is really not bad at all. .

  The red carpet has already started, but the troupe members from Xiying Studio entered first.

  Some young men and women are not well-known, but they cherish this opportunity very much.

  As for other people, such as some directors, they are chatting and chatting with people they know well.

  Some of you are friends you have known many years ago, and some are colleagues you have worked with.

   Regardless of whether the relationship is good or bad, pleasantries are definitely indispensable on this occasion.

  Xu Xin is also there.

  Wearing a British three-piece suit that looks a little eye-catching even on this occasion, the young man's tall and straight figure and capable temperament, and his appearance that would appear a little frigid when wearing a suit, are actually quite conspicuous here.

  But...he was standing in the corner chatting with Li Pingdong.

   It doesn't look like a small talk, but a discussion. It belongs to the kind of state where you can tell that the two are talking about something at a glance, so it's best not to disturb.

   No one came to bother me.

   The same is true.

  Li Pingdong was invited to participate in the celebration of Xiying Film Studio today. On the one hand, he belongs to the top photographers, so he naturally has this qualification.

   But more importantly, Xu Xin invited him to talk about "The Wind".

  The two just came out of Studio No. 3.

   Right now, we are discussing the concept of shooting.

  After Li Pingdong received Xu Xin's invitation, he agreed to be the photographer of "The Wind" without much hesitation.

   After all, after finishing the cooperation of "Secret", everyone's pleasant cooperation experience is here, and Li Pingdong readily agreed.

   However, in terms of shooting style, the two had some conflicts at the moment.

  Li Pingdong felt that his script was already quite suspenseful, and it would not be good if it created a scary atmosphere.

  Xu Xin explained his shooting concept little by little there.

   Even gestures and descriptions, the two of them chatted little by little.

   After chatting for a while, suddenly, a staff member came over:

   "Director Xu, Director Li, it's our next appearance."

  As soon as he reminded them, the two closed the topic, nodded, and followed the staff to the door.

  As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw a red carpet spreading towards Studio One.

   And outside the cordon not far ahead, there are still many reporters squatting in the cold wind, shooting this way with their cameras.

  Xu Xin made a gesture of invitation, and walked over there with Li Pingdong.

   have to admit.

  Yang Mi's vision is really good.

   This British three-piece suit, vest, and shirt is worn on Xu Xin's body. With that "dog face", it is indeed as good as some artists.

  Since entering the lighting area, the shutter movement of his long gun and short cannon has not stopped.

  However, according to the established thinking, although many reporters recognized him, compared with the fifth generation who have made a lot of achievements, being able to appear in the middle proves that Xu Xin's "coffee position" is still not top-notch.

  When the photos were taken, the reporters were not too excited.

   After leaving their signatures on the signature wall, Xu Xin and Li Pingdong walked into the venue under the leadership of the staff and brought them to a table.

  Following the labels on the seats, he realized that he, Li Pingdong, Yang Mi, Liang Bingning, and Zhang Yimou were sitting at the same table.

   There must be nothing wrong with such an arrangement. Today's celebration is a cocktail party, and the atmosphere is not as serious as the awards scene. However, this arrangement is very reasonable, whether it is from the perspective of the Olympics or "Secret".

  As for Liang Bingning... there will be an appointment ceremony in a while.

   Just watch, there will definitely be plenty of excitement tonight.

The door of the make-up room in No. 2 studio was opened, and after Yang Mi came out, Zhang Jiao quickly stood three steps away from Yang Mi, repeatedly checking Sister Mi's tailored dress, confirming every detail After there was nothing wrong with it, he nodded:

   "Sister Mi, it's alright."

"Um."

Yang Mi responded, and after handing over the mobile phone to Sun Ting, Zhang Jiao and Wu Qiqi helped her carry the long-tailed skirt, and followed the staff step by step through the No. 2 studio. Directors, go to the door.

   And just after walking a few steps, a sound suddenly sounded:

   "Mimi, do a good job on the red carpet later, do you hear me?"

  Yang Mi was taken aback, and subconsciously turned her head.

   I saw Zhang Yimou who was surrounded by the crowd looking at her.

  After Zhang Yimou's utterance, the eyes of all the people from all walks of life, large and small, all fell on Yang Mi.

  Yang Mi reacted immediately, with a lively and playful smile:

   "Oh, I see, Director Zhang."

   "Well, go, walk slowly, there are still steps over there."

  Zhang Yimou uttered another word of concern.

   Now... the eyes of a group of people changed.

what's the situation?

  Although I am looking for a girl...

  But Director Zhang and Yang Mi...are they so close?

   But before she had time to think, Yang Mi had already walked out with her skirt in the biting cold wind.

When she stepped onto the red carpet, she looked at the crazy flashing lights on both sides, with a soft and sweet smile on her face. After Zhang Jiao and Sun Ting let go of their skirts and took off their coats, they stepped forward. Walk forward with graceful steps.

  Others may not know what is going on in her heart at this moment.

  But Zhang Jiao, who was walking towards the staff passage, suddenly heard a sigh.

   Turning his head to look, he asked in bewilderment:

   "Sister Tingting, what's wrong?"

"…fine."

  Sun Ting looked away from Yang Mi, glanced at Zhang Jiao, smiled, and asked:

   "Do you think sister Mi is popular now?"

   "It must be hot..."

  Looking at the long guns and short cannons that changed their angles as Yang Mi moved, Zhang Jiao looked envious.

   "The fire is beyond bounds!"

"…Um."

   Sun Ting didn't say anything.

   There is no meaning of recalling bitterness and sweetness.

   After a reply, she led Zhang Jiao into Studio No. 1.

  Red carpet, just like this one after another.

  After the fifth-generation directors headed by Zhang Yimou appeared as the highlight, the reporters originally thought that tonight would be almost the same.

  Because according to the convention, the people behind should be some leaders of Xiying Studio.

   People in the leadership circle are respected, but for reporters, the traffic is the lowest.

  After all... how can "ordinary people" look better than celebrities?

  So, after the directors finished walking the red carpet, all the reporters unanimously began to screen the photos.

  This digital camera is good everywhere, but the memory is not big enough and it is easy to get full.

   I have to take advantage of this time to quickly clean up the bad photos, and save the memory for later use.

  But at this moment, someone shouted:

   "I'm stupid, Liang Bingning!"

  The moment they heard this movement, although countless reporters instinctively turned their heads, there was a unified thought in their minds:

   "Nonsense, how is it possible."

  How could Liang Bingning come here...

   "I am stupid!"

  Coincidentally, countless people uttered foul language, and looked at Liang Bingning who was walking side by side with Tian Shuanghe, their eyes were straightened all of a sudden!

  How could she be here!

  What is she here for? ? ?

   This is the first reaction.

  But they are not noobs who don't understand anything.

  Although I couldn't figure out what was going on here for a while, but subconsciously, key words appeared in my mind one by one.

  Huayi terminated the contract, broke away from the Beijing circle, established itself, and the Northwest circle...

  These keywords, together with their professional focus and the sound of pressing the shutter, reverberated in the minds of reporters throughout the factory.

   Click click click click...

   "Miss Liang's popularity is still high."

  Looking at the flashing light, Tian Shuanghe laughed.

  Hearing this, Liang Bingning hurriedly said modestly:

   "Leader, you have won the prize."

  Tian Shuanghe smiled gently, and the two continued to walk forward.

   Then, when she reached the door of Studio No. 1, which was supposed to enter the inner red carpet area, Liang Bingning had already politely put her hand on Tian Shuanghe's arm.

   "Kacha Kacha Kacha..."

  The two stood still and waved their hands at the camera.

   Then, Tian Shuanghe took a step back, and under Liang Bingning's surprised eyes, he took the initiative to give her all the halo.

   After Liang Bingning realized it, she didn't shirk this time.

  The red carpet, she has walked many times.

   How to pose has become instinctive.

  After the beautiful one-minute modeling time ended, she politely bowed to Tian Shuanghe again to express her gratitude, and then she took Tian Shuanghe's arm and left her signature. Under the excited eyes of a group of reporters, she walked into the auditorium.

   "Brother Sun! Brother Sun! Liang Bingning! It's Liang Bingning! She...she's so beautiful!"

  Hearing his excited words, Brother Sun didn't say anything.

   Just started spinning in my head.

   After a moment, he nodded:

"I see."

"…What?"

   "I know why Liang Bingning is here."

  Brother Sun temporarily handed over the camera to the young man, then took out his notebook, and quickly began to write down the main points of the news.

  At the same time, in order to deepen the impression, he took the initiative to whisper:

"Liang Bingning has left Huayi, and the Beijing circle will not activate her for at least two or three years. It is because of the profit squeeze, understand? If she gets along well, then after two or three years, her voice in the Beijing circle will increase. And if you don't do well, you will have to find a backer when you return to the Beijing circle again, and the benefits of ceding will be greater than before!"

  The young man obviously didn't understand.

   But Brother Sun wrote down the key words in his notebook and continued:

"So, she fell in love with Xiying Film Studio? After all, her studio seems to be funded by Emperor and the others. There must be no shortage of money, but the problem is that the Hong Kong circle is now in decline. If she leaves the resources in the mainland, the Beijing circle will definitely lose money." She fills in the blank space..."

"Well…"

   "So if there is something good, give priority to internal digestion instead of giving her this "rebellious boy". If she doesn't have any backing, she won't be able to compete with others..."

   "But it's different with the West Film Studio. At least she has enough face with these fifth-generation directors. Therefore, film and television resources should not be excluded by the Beijing circle!"

   "It is so! It must be so..."

   Swish Swish Swish Swish Swish...

  After quickly recording the key words of these key points in the notebook, Brother Sun's eyes lit up completely, and he looked up to see the young man with a blank face, and said quickly:

   "Hurry up, find a good location! What are you waiting for?! Today's celebration is definitely not easy! Have you brought your voice recorder?"

   "Uh... brought it."

   "Let's go! There must be news tonight!"

  Brother Sun took back the camera and walked quickly towards the inside.
