I'm a Director, I'm Not Bad Chapter 349

  Chapter 349 347. The first person

   "Golden Rooster Awards "The Wind" and "The Beginning of Spring" won the Best Actress, and Xiying Film Studio became the biggest winner!"

  Although the title of the draft is a bit exaggerated, in some respects, it is not wrong.

  The film with the most movement in the past few years is "The Wind".

   And it was "The Wind" that made them return to the sight of the insiders almost instantly from the slightly downcast in their twilight years.

  The important thing is not how much money "The Wind" has made, but that they have taken action, and the momentum is not small, and they have succeeded.

   To cast "The Sound of the Wind", Liang Bingning was recruited, and he also caught the heat of the Olympics. Taking Xu Xin as the starting point, most people's eyes were focused on him.

  Before the release of "The Wind", whether Liang Bingning was simply affiliated, and the ability of Xu Xin, a young man, were still X's unknown factors.

  But now "The Wind" has a box office of 300 million yuan, and Liang Bingning and Yang Mi have won the second place in one fell swoop.

  In this battle, don't care how many "Assembly Number", "Mei Lanfang" and the like won.

  The biggest winner is only Xiying Studio, no one else.

   Three actresses, old, middle-aged and young.

  Jiang Wenli has a solid foundation and a solid honor, which should not be underestimated.

  Liang Bingning set up her own business, successfully transformed and ambitious.

  What about Yang Mi?

  She doesn't need to do anything else.

  Don't worry about variety shows, starting a company, or doing anything else.

   To put it bluntly, no one knows what her upper limit is. But the lower limit has come out.

  She has a disciple of Lao Mouzi, and from all aspects, looking, inquiring, and observing, she seems to be a husband that cannot be ignored.

   This lower limit is already the upper limit that many actors may have to live up to in their lifetime.

   These three people are the facade.

   Supported the wax applied by Xiying Studio because of the cold weather, and the renewed facade.

  One film studio, two award-winning films, among the old Sixth Film Studios in history, only Xiying Film Studio has won this honor.

In 1986, "The Black Cannon Incident" and "Wild Mountain" competed for "Best Feature Film", "Best Director", "Best Actor", and "Best Actress" at the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards The top-level awards are inextricably linked.

   And that era was the era when Xiying Studio ruled the entire film industry.

   It's been a long, long time.

  But now, "The Wind" and "The Beginning of Spring" have reproduced this grand occasion again.

  Although the situation is slightly different, it is possible to do so, which has proved that whether it is a flash in the pan or regaining vitality.

   This corporate culture is the old state-owned film factory that "movies from the Chinese dynasty come from here", and it has once again returned to the mainstream circle.

   Is it wolf... I don't know.

   But, it really came back.

   As for its return, it took three influencers to start the first shot.

  The biggest credit is a young man who is just 23 years old this year...

23 years old.

   I don't know how many talents have graduated from university, but are still looking for jobs in the talent market and accumulating work experience.

  But this young man has already become a director with a level of 500 million...

   As far as the box office is concerned, let alone secure the first place among young directors. All directors added together, he is on the list.

  How did Lao Mouzi discover this little monster?

   Is it really like in the documentary, when you see the draft of the blueprint, you arrest people?

   Too much nonsense, right?

   "Miss Liang, this golden rooster seal will be of decisive help to your career. What are your plans for the future?"

  During the interview, Liang Bingning and Xu Xin were surrounded by a group of reporters.

  Hearing this, she smiled and said:

   “The next step is to make a good movie and bring better works to everyone.”

   "Then what do you think of Director Xu Xin next to you?"

   "I think... Director Xu Xin's ability doesn't need me to judge, right?"

  Liang Bingning asked Xu Xin with a rhetorical question.

   Immediately afterwards, a reporter asked:

   "Director Xu, this time your lover won the Golden Rooster Queen, what do you want to do most now?"

  “…does it count as quick to get you guys to end the question and get on a plane home?”

  Holding the trophy and certificate in his hand, Xu Xin said with a smile.

   But obviously his answer did not satisfy the reporter:

   "Then the award of "The Wind" can show that Xiying Studio has officially risen?"

   "Never fall, how can we talk about rising?"

  Xu Xin continued to ask questions.

   "Then is it convenient to disclose your next movie plan?"

"Well…"

  Hearing this, Xu Xin thought for a while and nodded:

   "Okay. The next movie... is already in preparation."

   As soon as the words came out, the reporters were taken aback for a moment.

   But immediately turned into a rush of excitement:

   "Can you tell me what the subject matter is?"

   "What is the investment cost?"

   "The script has come out?"

   "Who do you want to invite to be the hero and heroine?"

   "Is it still Yang Mi?"

   "Are you bound together? I want to reproduce Zhang Yimou and Gong Li."

  The vast number of questions overwhelmed him in an instant.

   At this moment, Liang Bingning stood up and said with a smile:

   "Then consider me more."

   In a word, these questions are turned into jokes.

  Xu Xin smiled and nodded:

   "Of course... well, everyone, let's talk so much first, and we are still waiting for a photo with us over there."

  Waving his hands and rejecting the reporters' continued questioning, he and Liang Bingning came to the red carpet where the golden rooster was posed for a photo.

   "Pose a pose?"

  Hearing Liang Bingning's words, Xu Xin shook his head slightly:

   "Forget it, I'm not the right owner. Just take a picture... People who don't know think I won the best director."

   Glancing at Feng Xiaogang who came out behind him, who was also surrounded by people, Xu Xin raised the certificate and trophy that belonged to Yang Mi after Xu Xin finished speaking.

   And Liang Bingning also held the trophy with a smile on her face.

   Soon, after the flash flashed twice, Xu Xin knew that the photo was taken successfully and planned to go down.

   At this moment, he heard a voice:

   "Bingbing, you wait."

   Turning his head to look, he found that it was Feng Xiaogang among the crowd, who was calling Liang Bingning.

  He subconsciously glanced at Liang Bingning.

   Liang Bingning smiled and nodded:

   "Hey, okay, Director Feng."

  Then walked off the stage with Xu Xin.

  At the entrance of the passage, Xu Xin thought for a while and said in a low voice:

   "If there is any trouble, tell the factory, and the factory will not ignore it."

  Liang Bingning glanced at him, a little surprised, but also hiding some inexplicable emotions.

  But he didn't show it, he just nodded with a smile:

   "Okay. After I finish filming this time, I will go and see the two little guys after I return to Yanjing."

   "Well, good. Pay more attention to rest, I'm leaving."

"Um."

  Xu Xin nodded at her, and walked out along the passage.

   Unexpectedly, just after walking for a while, I saw Zhao Wei, who was present because of "Painted Skin", chatting with a short-haired woman.

  He ignored it, and continued to walk along the aisle with the trophy and certificate.

  Zhao Wei doesn't know him...Although he has participated in several awards, everyone has met.

  But his self-proclaimed "Prince" in the Northwest Circle is still not in the eyes of those people.

  Don't care about whether you care about it or not, just because of his status, it is normal for others to keep a certain distance from him.

  He is also happy to be quiet.

But he didn't expect that just five or six steps away, when he was about to pass by Zhao Wei and the short-haired woman, the short-haired woman took the initiative to end the chat with Zhao Wei after seeing him, and was polite to Xu Xin shouted:

   "Director Xu, hello."

  Xu Xin was taken aback.

   When Zhao Wei turned her head and saw Xu Xin, she was slow for a moment, and then she took the initiative to say hello:

   "Hi, Director Xu. We meet again."

  Xu Xin was really surprised.

  However, when people say hello, he must reply.

   smiled and nodded:

   "Hello, Mr. Zhao."

   "Yeah, congratulations Mimi."

   "Ha, thanks."

   "Well, Director Xu, I have a chance to work together in the future."

"certainly."

  Following Xu Xin's promise, Zhao Wei nodded:

   "Then you guys talk, I'll go first."

   As she spoke, she nodded politely to Xu Xin and left quickly.

   After she left, Xu Xin looked at this short-haired woman who seemed to be about forty years old with a kind of interest.

"you are?"

  Hearing what he said, the short-haired woman introduced herself with a smile:

   "Hello Director Xu, I'm Wang Jinghua, an agent of Eighteen Culture."

  Xu Xin paused.

   Rather abruptly, with a... scrutinizing gaze, he looked up and down the middle-aged woman in front of him.

   This gaze is indeed abrupt.

  Because he rarely looked at people other than the actors in his own play so clearly.

  Especially a woman.

   appears very impolite.

but…

   This one deserves to be rude once.

  Because he really wanted to know what kind of superhuman existence this so-called manager is responsible for.

  Wang Jinghua.

  The Beijing circle, and even the number one broker in the mainland.

  The only female devil who hurts Hua Yi's vitality by moving her body, so that she can be sent to hell.

   It is also the only first-generation broker that can be listed as a textbook by all brokers.

   and Xiangjiang's "Golden Aunt" Qiu Likuan are also known as "Mom"'s No. 1 domestic entertainment agent.

   Just appeared in front of my eyes?

   Wang Jinghua was not angry when he looked at her like this, but said with a smile:

   "What? Did Director Xu also hear the legend that I have three heads and six arms from others?"

"…Ha ha."

  Xu Xin laughed out loud, then stretched out his hand:

   "Broker Wang, hello. I'm Xu Xin, nice to meet you."

   "Hi, Director Xu."

  The two shook hands with each other.

   After letting go, Xu Xin pointed to the back:

   "Sister Bingbing is right behind, and she probably will come out with Director Feng in a while."

  Hearing this, Wang Jinghua shook her head:

   "I'm not looking for Bingbing, I'm here to wait for Director Xu."

"wait for me?"

  Xu Xin was suddenly happy.

  Looking back, seeing that Liang Bingning hadn't come out yet, she took the initiative to say:

   "Let's hang out and talk then. I need a place to smoke a cigarette."

   After speaking, reach out:

   "Agent Wang, please."

   "Director Xu please."

   "Brother Xu..."

  Sun Ting was also waiting at the exit with a pack of cigarettes and a lighter in her hand.

  As a witness of Brother Xu and Sister Mi's relationship, she really knows their habits too well.

  Brother Xu definitely can't smoke in a dress, and he can't even bring his mobile phone. The first time he comes out, he will look for himself, and then look for a cigarette.

  So, after seeing Xu Xin in the early days, she ignored who the woman next to Brother Xu was, but walked over and handed him a cigarette.

   "My assistant, Sun Ting."

  Xu Xin took the cigarette, introduced it, and then said to Sun Ting:

   "Wang Jinghua, Miss Wang."

  Sun Ting was dumbfounded.

  Wang...Wang Jinghua?

   Logically speaking, the positions of agents and assistants are actually different.

   Not to mention Wang Jinghua's status.

  But after hearing Xu Xin's introduction, she smiled and nodded:

   "I've heard that Tingting is Mimi's right-hand man."

  Sun Ting was even more confused.

  But Xu Xin pretended not to hear this kind of intimate address, and what was revealed under the address.

   Just took two puffs of cigarettes, suppressed the addiction, looked at the people around, and asked with a smile:

   "Agent Wang wants to find a place to sit? Or is it?"

   "Find a place to sit down. Director Xu, how are you?"

  Hearing this, Xu Xin responded:

   "No problem. Then... the hotel? Is Manager Wang convenient?"

   "Yes. I live there too... Director Xu, shall we leave a contact information?"

"okay."

   After leaving a phone number for each other, Wang Jinghua said:

   "There are a lot of people here, so I'll take the first step."

   "Okay. Manager Wang, see you later."

   Xu Xin bid farewell to her politely.

   After the other party disappeared into the row of nanny cars, he heard Sun Ting murmur:

   "Brother Xu...this...she..."

   "Come here specifically for me."

  With a cigarette in his mouth, he untied the tie around his neck, and Xu Xin also had a thoughtful look in his eyes.

   Then he thought about it and said:

   "You will follow me in a while."

   "Uh... convenient?"

   "What's the inconvenience?"

  Xu Xin shrugged:

   "Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover."

   As he spoke, he took another two puffs of cigarettes, and dialed Yang Mi's number with his phone.

   "Doo beep... hello."

  Yang Mi's voice sounded.

   "Come out?"

"Um."

  Xu Xin responded:

"What are you doing?"

   "Call me the actress, no big or small."

"…Ha ha."

  Hearing her triumphant tone, Xu Xin couldn't help laughing:

   "Yes, yes, actress, what are you doing, old man?"

"Just finished soaking my feet, Nuannuan and Yangyang have been sent to the baby room tonight. I also expressed 100ml of milk, and I can sleep well tonight... When will you come back tomorrow, give me the trophy! I'm rare~"

   "Okay~ Tomorrow, I will arrive at noon tomorrow. Now I plan to go back to the hotel."

   "...Well. Let's talk at the hotel then, shall we? I have a lot to say to you..."

   "Hold it first."

  Yang Mi's mouth twitched.

"My side includes Brother Qian'er and Mr. Xue. I still have to talk to everyone. I'm done tonight... I guess it will be around eleven o'clock at least. Go to bed early and wait for me to go home if you have anything to say." explain."

   "Well... that's fine, I'm also afraid that if I get too excited right now, if I say something too nasty, I'll feel ashamed when I think about it later... Hehehe, where's Tingting?"

   "She will be with me later."

   "Okay, then I'm going to sleep...but I may not be able to sleep, I will try my best. You must come back as soon as possible tomorrow~"

   "Well, well... There are so many people, I won't chat with you anymore."

"Uh-huh."

  Hung up the phone, and Xu Xin finished one of his cigarettes with a hard puff.

  He said:

   "Let's go. Don't tell her about the meeting with Wang Jinghua, it will save her to think about this and that tonight. By the way, change the ticket and book the earliest flight back tomorrow morning."

"OK."

  Sun Ting responded quickly, took out her mobile phone and started calling the company's ticket office.

  The car they took was provided by the organizer.

  So Xu Xin didn't say much in the car, even the bow tie was balled up and thrown into Sun Ting's bag.

   Unbuttoned the top two buttons, sat on the commercial vehicle, and squinted his eyes in the dark.

  Wang Jinghua's experience is actually quite legendary.

   A popular drink in the early years was called "Rising Sun".

  The two brothers who spoke for the advertisement were her first pair of artists.

   At that time, Wang Jinghua was said to be riding a bicycle to find performances for the brothers in entertainment places all over Yanjing City.

  Step by step, the two of them were promoted to be the spokespersons of Rising Sun, and became a well-known idol group.

  But the music industry at that time was quite chaotic. There were no clear regulations in the industry, and singers didn't pay attention to the rules. At that time, the owner of the music company that Wang Jinghua followed was called Su Yue.

  Seeing that the circle is getting more and more chaotic, Su Yue has also made money, so he plans to cast a TV series.

  At that time, Wang Jinghua also changed careers with the big boss.

  Thus, I met Chen Daoxuan and became his assistant.

  At that time, Chen Daoxuan, who had just won the Feitian Award through "The Besieged City", was very energetic.

   People, when they are crazy, they have a big temper.

  Chen Daohuang couldn't escape this process either.

   It is common to swear and lose your temper on the set.

   As an assistant, Wang Jinghua will definitely not be able to escape.

  But she has an advantage...or is closer to a service personality.

   You can curse me, but I know what my job is.

  So she took care of Chen Daohuang's life in an orderly manner.

   Over time, Chen Daoming also felt that she was careful and worked hard, and under her care, Chen Daoxing really couldn't lose his temper. The two even became good friends.

  So I told her: Don't be a singer's manager, but an actor instead.

  One sentence made her who she is today.

  In 1997, she established the first regular agency company in China, called "Black Sea Red Sun".

  The first artist who signed a contract was Chen Daohuang.

   On the one hand, Chen Daoxuan is indeed a fire.

  On the other hand, this is the first formal professional brokerage company in the mainland, and many artists came here especially for it.

  The business of the company is developing very fast.

  It can be said that Wang Jinghua set up the benchmark for brokers in the mainland.

  By the same token, the reason why Huayi was able to hold the leading position of the entertainment company was also Wang Jinghua's support.

  Including people like Li Bingbing and Liang Bingning, or in other words, all frontlines related to Huayi, most of them are also supported by her.

   But.

  The later scripts were normal.

  Some people are doomed to share joys and sorrows, but not prosperity.

  After Hua Yi grew up, he wanted to get rid of Wang Jinghua's shackles.

  After all, in the company at that time, the king and the second king might be able to speak well, but Wang Jinghua must be able to speak well.

   This kind of person feels uncomfortable even if he is a boss.

  So, in 2005, Wang Jinghua's contract expired, and she left directly.

   And with this departure, most of Huayi's country was taken away.

   During the period, it goes without saying who will stay and who will stay.

   Li Bingbing, who bears the brunt, chose Huayi between Wang Jinghua and Huayi for a signing fee of 60 million.

  The same is true for Liang Bingning.

   But the strangeness is also strange here.

  Don't care about those who leave or stay, as far as actors are concerned, Wang Jinghua really can't say a word.

  Even, Liang Bingning said in person that Wang Jinghua's departure was like a divorce between her father and mother to her, and she didn't know who she was with.

   Li Bingbing was more straightforward.

   "Of course I feel guilty towards Sister Hua, but I believe that Sister Hua must not be a narrow-minded person, and our relationship and relationship will not be affected by this incident."

  Facts have proved that this statement is not true at all.

  Wang Jinghua and Li Bingbing have been in a relationship for so many years, and their relationship remains the same.

   After switching jobs to Hua Yi's main opponent at that time, Orange Sky, the script was exactly the same as Hua Yi's.

  Orange Sky's boss, Wu Kebo, is also dissatisfied with the situation where his company is left to outsiders.

  From the honeymoon period to the peaceful breakup, Wang Jinghua and Orange Sky only lasted 3 years.

  Last year, when Xu Xin was busy with the Olympic Games and preparing for "The Wind", Wang Jinghua left Orange Sky and founded "Eighteen Cultures" by herself.

  And those artists still followed her and left Orange Sky unswervingly.

  Orange Sky also directly lost the capital to continue to compete with Huayi for the eldest brother.

   This is actually a bit scary.

  These artists are really determined to go with Wang Jinghua.

  And these people are not small characters. The artists under her banner randomly pull out one, and they are all familiar faces to the audience.

  The influence of this person does not only radiate to the Beijing circle.

   In the whole internal entertainment, her influence is not simple.

   It's just because everyone's career perspective is different, she is an agent, so she usually doesn't seem to have a "sense of presence".

   At least this is the case for Xu Xin and Yang Mi.

  Xu Xin does not have an agent.

  Yang Mi has an agent, but it's almost like not having one.

   Zeng Jia really has no right to speak in Yang Mi.

  She is only responsible for finding resources, such as endorsements and advertisements.

   Film and television resources, she really can't get her hands on it.

   First, the network resources are not enough.

  Secondly... Maybe Xu Xin really spoiled her.

  The things she touches... Zeng Jia really can't get them.

  From her debut to the present, like Xu Xin, she has only made two movies.

  A "Secret That Can't Be Said" and a "Sound of the Wind".

   or something.

   Really.

  However, the two movies directly produced a queen...

   This kind of outrageous thing is put in Xiying Studio... You can try another entertainment company.

   It's been fried for a long time.

  The company has to praise her desperately to make her produce economic effects.

  Before meeting this manager Wang today, Xu Xin really hadn't considered her sister's career from the perspective of a manager.

   But now sitting in the car thinking alone, and contacting some of his hearsay about Wang Jinghua...

  Xu Xin is also pondering...

  She was looking for herself for nothing more than two points.

   One is that he has taken a fancy to himself.

  Secondly, she fell in love with Yang Mi.

  Leave aside for the time being the "stabbing" attributes of myself and my spoiled sister.

   Just talk about cooperation...

  Is it possible to achieve a win-win situation?

  I don't care.

  There are only two things that can drive him to make a movie.

  One is favor.

  The second is to see if he likes it or not.

   It doesn't matter if you lose or win.

   But what about my sister?

  Her dream is also to sit there...it can almost be said to be higher than Liang Bingning's definition.

   In terms of actors, she has to sit firmly on the front line, or even surpass the top line.

   In terms of status, she wants everyone to respectfully call Sister Mi when they see her.

  Wang Jinghua...

   What kind of help can it bring her?

   Moreover, how should the position be adjusted?

  Xu Xin doesn't want her to bring the team over again.

  Hua Yi and Cheng Tian can't handle it, he doesn't have that self-confidence, only Yang Mi's dog temper can bear the feeling of being ostracized.

  And what if it is an artist signed separately?

  What is Wang Jinghua pursuing?

  What can my sister and myself give back?

  How can everyone "win-win"?

  A series of thoughts rolled in his mind.

   And in the midst of these thoughts, the car returned to the hotel.

  After getting off the car, Xu Xin sent Wang Jinghua a message that he had arrived.

   And the room number is attached.

  Back in the room, without Xu Xin saying anything, Sun Ting began to wash the mobile tea set that Sister Mi bought.

   Then he walked into the house, and just as he took out a power strip, there was a knock on the door.

  After Sun Ting opened the door, Wang Jinghua walked in and greeted Xu Xin:

   "Director Xu."

   "Agent Wang, please sit down."

  Xu Xin smiled and got up to greet him.

  Wang Jinghua nodded and sat down, but she didn't speak. Instead, she looked at Sun Ting holding the plug strip in her hand, checked it from the socket next to the sofa, and put the cable next to the coffee table.

   Then, Sun Ting brought over a hot water bottle that was obviously different from the hotel.

   There are also several bottles of mineral water.

  The kettle is powered on, and the mineral water is unscrewed and poured into the kettle.

   After finishing everything, Sun Ting took out the tea set that had just been washed, and sat down on the sofa logically.

   Take her set of movements into my eyes.

  Wang Jinghua suddenly smiled and nodded:

   "It seems that Tingting takes good care of Director Xu."

   "Same as my own sister."

  Following her words, Xu Xin answered.

  Wang Jinghua nodded again:

   "Well, it can be seen... In fact, assistants and managers are the same. The more careful, the more suitable. Director Xu, what do you think?"

  Hearing this, Xu Xin shook his head slightly, and smiled meaningfully:

   "I don't know, I don't have an agent."

"…ha."

  Wang Jinghua had a smile on her face.

   Looking for a monthly pass! Ladies and gentlemen, I have been adjusting my schedule in the past few days. To put it bluntly... I am really "starved and cold". Jiageng sees that this month is not over yet, I can only say that I will try my best. I'm going to start working out tomorrow... I hope I can eat enough...
