I'm a Director, I'm Not Bad Chapter 441

  Chapter 441 439. A new generation replaces the old (32)

"Then follow this way of thinking. We don't just stick to solar terms, regions, or seasons. We integrate them, and then start to choose various regional delicacies... In this regard, everyone should not only consider the opinions of Teacher Dong and others, but also Ask your friends more. What we want to shoot is a down-to-earth food documentary, relying on food to convey those seemingly ordinary but most sincere feelings..."

  In the conference room, facing the people sitting at the table, Xu Xin talked about the final summary of the plan.

   Others used pens or laptops to record Director Xu's request.

   Finally, after Xu Xin finished speaking, he asked:

   "Is there anything else you want to add?"

  Including Ren Changzhen, everyone shook their heads.

  In their minds, this plan is clear and clear, and everything is perfect from the project idea to the coordination details.

   Doesn't need supplementation at all.

  Because Director Xu...in this short period of time, he considered everything in every aspect, without missing a single bit.

  Looking at the young man in front of them...these people sighed in unison:

   "How did you do it? So young..."

at last.

   "I will set off to shoot "The Hawthorn Tree" in three days. For the next period of time, our meetings may be held at night and online. Please understand. Then...the meeting will be adjourned."

   After nodding to everyone, everyone started packing their things and preparing to leave.

   They don't have to worry about sanitation, there will be a dedicated person to clean it.

  Xu Xin chatted with Yan Dazhong and Ren Changzhen who were chasing him all the way to the specific details, until he arrived at the parking lot, and the effort of smoking a cigarette was completely over.

  When it was over, the lights were already on.

  He drove straight back.

  I was thinking about what to eat for tonight along the way.

   After all, he was very hungry after a busy day.

   When he got home, he saw Zeng Jia who was chatting with Yang Mi.

"I'm home…"

   "Well, why is Sister Zeng coming here when she is free?"

  While changing clothes and shoes, Xu Xin said hello.

   Then I heard Yang Mi ask:

   "Do you still remember Shen Teng?"

"who?"

   "Shen Teng, that **** at the premiere of "The Golden Armor"..."

   "I don't remember, I didn't go to the scene, I just watched the video of "Golden Armor", even if I saw it, I forgot... What's wrong?"

   When he came to the climbing mat, he silently moved his son who was leaning on Zaizai away.

   Welcomed Zaizai's eyes full of resentment.

  No way, spring is here, and the two dogs are in the period of moulting.

  Good guy, the dog hair you took off can be tied into thread if you pick it up, and you can sew dog hair pants.

  He is not happy to eat a mouthful of dog hair when he sneaks up on his son at night.

"Shen Teng and the others opened a small theater called "Happy Twist". Today, I invited Sister Zeng to watch a performance. After watching the performance... everyone sat down and chatted. They... want to raise money and promote themselves. .”

small theater?

  Hearing this word, Xu Xin was stunned and asked:

   "Imitate Deyun Society?"

   Zeng Jia nodded:

   "That's almost what it means. But they are stage plays, dramas, and the content of the performances is also very exciting. They are not well-known, but the quality of the works is definitely not bad."

   As she spoke, she took out a few discs in her bag:

   "This is the video they gave me of all their performances so far. I watched a play called "Pirates of Somalia" in the afternoon, and the arrangement was really good."

"Well…"

  Hearing this, Xu Xin didn't watch these discs for the time being, but looked at Yang Mi:

   "Are you interested?"

   "Sister Zeng is interested."

   Pointing to Zeng Jia:

   "I'm not very interested, but Ms. Zeng seems very interested, so I'm ready to vote."

  As soon as she said this, Xu Xin understood that this fox was buying people's hearts...

  Although he is not too clear about what is worth paying attention to about this twist and Shen Teng.

   After all, I haven't seen their works yet.

  But...the relationship between Zeng Jia and the two of them was originally a close partner.

   There is no need to buy people's hearts.

  Because everyone's interests and goals are the same...but the wife did it.

   Then she should not be aimless.

   If you have anything to say, you can talk slowly after Zeng Jia leaves, but now that the conversation has come to this point, Xu Xin nodded and asked:

   "How much?"

"45% of the shares, three million. The price is a bit high... Sister Zeng and I are talking about this right now. Money is not important, Sister Zeng, as long as you say it is worth it, then I will invest directly. Even acquisitions are no problem ..."

  Three hundred yuan?

  Hearing this number, Xu Xin lost interest.

  His salary is seven thousand five thousand a month.

  The three hundred yuan is not worth a tank of gas.

   Cabbage price.

  The flowers can't be finished, they can't be spent at all.

  But the husband and wife must cooperate.

   Not to mention the stage of buying people's hearts.

  So, Xu Xin said:

"Actually, it doesn't need to be so troublesome. If Sister Zeng is tight and doesn't want to have too much contact with them, if they are short of money, then just give the money to Sister Zeng and lend it in her name. It's over. If you don't pay it back It doesn't matter, Sister Zeng, you don't have to worry too much."

  His words elevated this matter to the height of human affection.

  Money, it doesn't matter.

  If you can't get rid of your face, I'll pay you and give you a good reputation.

  But in fact, it is a bit like sending goose feathers from thousands of miles away, which means that the gift is light and the affection is heavy.

   And the attitude has been taken out.

   As expected, Zeng Jia quickly shook his head:

"No, no, no, it's not borrowing money. Actually, I came here... after comprehensive consideration, and I did it because I thought it would be beneficial to us. Director Xu, think about it, Mimi still wants to continue to recruit artists. Our scouting department has already After the formation is completed, some good seedlings will be discovered one after another in various colleges and universities starting this year. But these seedlings enter the company, and it also needs a process of experience. A place to improve acting skills is very much needed. It cannot be done by everyone. Let's go to the human arts test and the Chinese opera test? It's a bit too counterproductive..."

  After hearing this, Xu Xin understood what she meant:

   "You mean, this form of stage play can be used to let our people hone their acting skills?"

"Yes. I also took a fancy to this platform... It's not that they are not well-known... On the contrary, they have some regular student audiences. But that's all. The place where the performance is performed is in the HD area, and there are few people. Then there are them No reputation, not much traffic.

  Although I followed the example of Deyun Club and posted clips of my own performance on the Internet... But basically there is no splash. Therefore, it is true that they need money to operate and turn around, but everyone also talked about it in the afternoon. In the short term, this money is used to maintain the company's expenses, but in the long run, they need a promotional channel.

  And this kind of channel is actually nothing more than some celebrity guest appearances, or a signature attraction. If we invest in shares, Mimi, Liu Yifei, and you can all provide this kind of drainage. At the same time, their creative freedom will be higher with our stakes starting to shoulder the expenses.

And the most important thing is... they are also aware of the limitations of the Haidian theater, so they want to move the theater to the city... But now the housing prices in Yanjing are getting higher every year, especially those theaters, which are followed by some Deyun Club People in the quyi industry are being fired so high that it is unreasonable. This money is mainly used for the rent of the theater..."

"Well…"

  After Zeng Jia said this, Xu Xin became interested.

   After thinking about it, he asked:

   "They all write their own plays? What form? What about the rehearsal cycle? What type?"

   "Comedy, the scripts are all original, and the cycle is not clear. But there are more than a dozen actors... small scale..."

   "Comedy?"

   Now, Xu Xin became more interested.

  Because...he doesn't know what other people think, but for him, comedy is a very, very, very advanced form of performance.

  Before he said to Mr. Benshan that the actors who acted in comedies are all "advanced". It is definitely not a cliché.

   is what he said in his heart.

   After thinking for a while, his eyes fell on those CDs.

   "It sounds pretty good... I just don't know how it will perform. But I agree with the mutually beneficial channel you mentioned, Sister Zeng... The premise is that they are not xenophobic and we have the right to speak."

   "It's definitely no problem. I told them about the training of actors in the afternoon. They are also very welcome..."

  Hearing this, Xu Xin nodded slightly:

"That's fine, but it's useless to just say it. It has to be marked in the contract. And there is an important point, that is, to prevent people from both sides from looking down on each other. The best way is that everyone's performing arts contracts fall on both sides. Only here, everyone is a family, which is the safest.

Think about it, newcomers first go to the closest distance to the audience, and most need to mobilize all their energy to infect the audience. After training in the drama club, after training, we will give resources to act... This is a very solid upward path channel. "

   "But I'm worried... What if I get labeled as a comedian?"

  Yang Mi expressed her worries.

   Who knew that Xu Xin waved his hand directly:

"There is no such thing. Some actors, who can act in dramas, may not be able to act in comedies. But if they can act in comedies, they can convey the emotions of happiness and happiness to the audience, and they will not be bad at controlling other roles. You say It's a persona for publicity and hype. But what we want to cultivate is a group of valuable people who can perform what they want on stage, and return to being themselves when they get off stage...and even be "forgotten" by the audience. actor…"

   "Except Yang Ying."

  Xu Xin's mouth twitched, thinking that you really put her in the sewer.

  Nodding speechlessly:

   "Yes, yes, except for your "good sister"."

  Yang Mi smiled and stuck out her tongue.

  They are all their own people, no ghosts, so you can trade with confidence.

"Let's put it this way...but for specific investment matters, you still have to send someone from the company to investigate, Mrs. Zeng. Including contract drafting, artist contracts, share conversion, etc...Brother, are you affected tonight? Look at these work?"

"good."

  As Xu Xin readily agreed, the whole matter became completely clear.

   "Have a drama club of your own."

  This concept is like opening a channel for the couple to improve themselves fundamentally from the bottom up.

  The interest suddenly increased.

   Compared with this interest, the price of the three hundred yuan is insignificant.

  What?

  Three hundred?

   Is that also called money?

   Zeng Jia left after dinner.

  With Liu Yifei joining the group, she will be fully responsible for the financing and acquisition of "Happy Twist".

   After she left, Xu Xin held a teacup, and the whole family sat in front of the TV and watched "Pirates of Somalia" recommended by Zeng Jia.

   It doesn't matter if you don't look at it...

   "Hahahahaha..."

   "Pfft ha ha ha ha..."

   "Ouch...hahaha...steal food...hahahahaha..."

   "Yeah, is this the part of "The Wind"?"

   "Hahahahaha..."

  Let's not talk about Yang Mi, the whole family is numb from laughter.

  It has nothing to do with professional level or acting skills, but simply looking at this story from the perspective of the audience.

  Mixed together some things that happened in 2009, from "Jia Junpeng, your mother called you home for dinner", to farm stealing that suddenly became popular for some reason, etc.

   At first glance, it looks like a hodgepodge, but what is actually expressed... In the words of cross talk, there is no shortage of burdens and jokes, which is really interesting.

  A performance of more than an hour, the arrangement is quite mature, not messy at all.

  Although the radio effect is poor, the picture is a bit blurry.

  But Yang Mi nodded directly after reading it:

   "Well, it's not bad, it's fun! Hahaha~"

   Subtext: You can vote.

   And as the saying goes, money can't buy a beautiful smile.

   Seeing his wife so happy, Xu Xin stopped picking on any acting problems.

   Vote and vote.

  As long as she is happy.

  Xu Xin didn't care about the next thing.

   "Bite of the Tongue" is already on the right track. As for the series of actions on Shuangwei's side, no matter what is said in "Wulin Biography" or the financing of Happy Twist, he has never worried about it.

  March came to an end amidst all this busyness.

  On the last day of March, when Xu Xin woke up early in the morning, he saw Zhang Jiao, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, appearing on his sofa.

   Beside her was an ordinary-looking, slightly fat girl.

   "Hey, student Zhang Tianai, how are you?"

   He greeted with a smile.

  Hearing this name, Zhang Jiao blushed, but she stood up and bowed to Xu Xin generously:

   "Hello, Senior Xu Xin."

   "Poof..."

  Yang Mi on the side burst out laughing:

   "The way you two hold airs is really funny. You still play school at home~"

  Xu Xin cast a disgusted glance at his wife who had pierced the cosplay layer, shook his head speechlessly, and asked:

   "Already asked for leave?"

   "Please pass."

  Returning to her assistant status, she nodded and said as she was about to leave for Yuan'an with Director Xu.

  In fact, Zhang Jiao has already agreed with Yang Mi that the school year system for the adult students of Beijing Film Academy is 2.5 years. Their classes are more concentrated, there are not so many education classes, and they are all about real performance classes. After the show, I made my debut as an actor.

  Although the content of the subject is very compact, the school does not prevent students from going to the crew for in-depth experience.

   But the course cannot be left behind.

   Wait until the day of graduation and pass all the exams, you can graduate.

   And Xu Xin didn't want to take her this time.

   But when she went to school, Yang Mi was going to find a new assistant for her brother.

  However, Xu Xin is a person who doesn't like many people around him. He is not used to people he is not familiar with.

   She insisted on this matter a few times, and Xu Xin also insisted on it a few times, but it was nothing.

  In addition, Xu Xin didn't do much action last year, and it was inconvenient to find an assistant to follow, so this matter was forgotten.

  But when "The Hawthorn Tree" was about to start, Yang Mi slapped her forehead, and then remembered that she hadn't arranged an assistant for her brother to take care of her life.

  Assistants also need to get in touch with artists. Only by understanding Xu Xin's preferences can they be satisfied and satisfying in every aspect.

  Although I can look for it now, but I can't find someone who can take good care of Xu Xin's life in a short time.

   No, she brought Zhang Jiao here again.

  At first, Xu Xin disagreed, feeling that Zhang Jiao's work would be delayed.

  But after thinking about it carefully...Anyway, not only Zhang Jiao came to the crew this time, but also his "senior and sisters" who are going to graduate school again.

  Even the teacher will come over in person for a period of time to guide the students.

  It would be more appropriate to bring Zhang Jiao.

  Follow Teacher Yu for a systematic study.

   also agreed.

  As soon as he agrees, the follow-up package will be arranged immediately.

   No, Yang Mi pointed to the fat girl next to Zhang Jiao:

   "Su Meng, your second assistant."

  Hearing Yang Mi's words, the girl who also got up hurriedly bowed:

   "Hello Director Xu, I'm Su Meng, I will work hard, please give me your advice!"

  Su Meng looked nervous, at a loss, and a little reserved.

  Xu Xin smiled and nodded:

   "Well, hello. I will get in touch with you in the future~"

"This time, I will let Jiaojiao take Mengmeng with me. A crew can probably touch it. Mengmeng is a person with high scores in physical therapy and massage. Don't you like the one with strong hands the most? You will be tired or have sore shoulders in the future." If you have a stiff neck or something, just look for her."

  Hearing what his wife said, Xu Xin asked in bewilderment:

   "Are you a medical professional?"

"ah?"

  Su Meng froze for a moment before shaking her head:

   "No, no, no, I learned it through company training..."

  Hearing this, Xu Xin's eyes widened, and he looked at Yang Mi:

"corporate training?"

"uh-huh."

  The little young woman pinched her waist, her face full of pride:

"Otherwise, what do you think? I specially taught a subject, massage and massage. In the future, no matter who you are, you can ask the assistant to pinch you when you are tired, so as to relax better. This subject is also one of the criteria for graduation from training...Don't worry, I hired a professional Chinese medicine practitioner, not a technician training in the bath..."

   "You...why are you so clear about things in the bath?"

  Xu Xin couldn't help but say something more.

   Then the young woman who pinched her waist just now exploded:

   "You're the one who talks too much nonsense! Hurry up and eat! Fuck you!"

   "Hey, okay."

  Xu Sanjin who was afraid of being collapsed hurriedly nodded, and walked obediently to the kitchen.

  While walking, he sighed to his mother-in-law at the kitchen door:

   "Alas...it scares me to death."

  The two passed by.

  Yang Chunling looked at her daughter unkindly:

   "Say what you just said again, who are you going to kill?"

   "Oops, Mom...I was kidding him."

  Xiao Counsel quickly slumped his shoulders, and looked like a submissive and cute girl.

  Yang Chunling looked at her daughter with a fake smile:

   "You better be joking."

   "Hehehe, yes, yes, he is my own brother, how can I be willing to move a finger of him?"

   "I can't even think about it!"

   "Hey, I see, my queen mother..."

  Yang Mi, who is as fierce as a tiger in front of her husband and as cowardly as a mouse in front of her mother, really changed her style of painting a little bit, and Su Meng was taken aback for a while.

  At this time, Zhang Jiao turned her head and glanced at her latecomer.

   also did not say a word.

   Just muttered in my heart:

   "Take your time, there are still many things you don't know. When Sister Mi gives Brother Xu a look, Brother Xu will know that you should leave without having to go into the house... You will be considered to have learned it."

   After breakfast, the three of them went downstairs to the parking lot.

   Zhang Jiao was still a little uncomfortable when she handed the key to Su Meng.

   There is a kind of absurdity of "my things were taken away".

   Xu Xin, who was sitting in the co-pilot, felt the girl's smooth driving skills, and nodded silently in his heart.

   It's okay, the car drives quite steadily.

  He came to the school steadily all the way. This time, instead of going through the gate, he went around to the gate of the Beijing Film Research Institute on Huangtingzi Road.

   While Su Mengman was looking for a parking lot, Xu Xin pointed to the gate of the institute:

   "Just drive in directly, go downstairs to the doctor's dormitory, 65 parking spaces."

   "Huh? Okay."

  Su Meng drove into a campus that was unfamiliar to her, and under the guidance of Xu Xin, she arrived in front of a dormitory building.

  Mr. Yu really couldn't stand his disciples' hard work, so he just took advantage of the time when several PhD students left school this year, and applied for a parking space in a dormitory near the research institute.

  Otherwise, she would feel distressed when she saw her disciple being fined 200 yuan at every turn.

  Even if she knows that the disciple doesn't feel bad...

  Take her to find her own parking space, and after making sure everything is memorized, the three of them get out of the car.

  Xu Xin walked towards the research institute habitually, but Su Meng wanted to keep up but was stopped by Zhang Jiao.

   didn't make a sound, and waited until Xu Xin walked into the building of the research institute before she said:

"Brother Xu is a student in school, and all external affairs will not be dealt with in school. So we can't follow. Generally, if he doesn't say when to leave, it means that he will come down soon. But if he says let When you are looking for a place to rest, it may be to go to class, or you have to stay for a long time... Here you can arrange activities yourself.

  You can do whatever you want, but don't run too far, lest Brother Xu wait for you for too long when it ends. You can't call him halfway, unless it's necessary... But generally not, Brother Xu handles his affairs by himself. We are here, at most, as a substitute driver, and we just take care of his daily life in the film crew.

  After you get familiar with him, you will meet many people who want to get on the same level as Brother Xu. They will give you gifts, or give you benefits, etc. You have to decide whether to accept them or not. "

  Hearing this, Su Meng was a little surprised:

   "Can you accept these?"

"sure."

  Zhang Jiao nodded:

   "But you need to measure, that is, whether Brother Xu likes doing this kind of thing... Brother Xu doesn't care too much about some trivial things, but you can't make mistakes in principle. Especially when you are on the crew...

  He pays attention to safety first, and efficiency second. I don't care much about other things...for example, what kind of vehicle to arrange, which hotel to stay in...in fact, it is all arranged by the company. As for these tasks, Sister Mi tacitly agreed to let us communicate.

  The hotel will give you benefits in order to fight for the film crew, and the place where you rent a car will also give you benefits... There are many other things that will benefit you, all of which are the extra money that Sister Mi tacitly allows us to earn. "

   "Ah this..."

   Obviously, Su Meng's three views have been subverted.

   "Can this be acquiesced?"

   Seeing her new appearance, Zhang Jiao didn't laugh at her, because she also came here from this time.

   Instead, she explained to her more and more patiently:

"That's right, Miss Mi's purpose is to make money for everyone... But there is a premise, that is, everything must be of high quality and quantity, and take good care of your artists. So, this time I will take you, but From now on, you will have to judge for yourself..."

"…Understood."

"Well, anyway, there is only one standard. Before doing anything, think about whether Brother Xu likes it or agrees with it. As Brother Xu's assistant, you have more power to speak than many people... In the future, you will gradually be able to Feel."

   As she spoke, she glanced vaguely at the girl's swollen, plastered thumb...

   "Don't worry, all your hard work, hard work, to come to this position... here will definitely not be in vain."

   Seeing her eyes, Su Meng subconsciously withdrew her hand and nodded vigorously:

   "Thank you, sister Jiaojiao."

   "Well, remember to choose a tasteless plaster next time. Brother Xu touched his nose when he got in the car, which proves that he has noticed the abnormality of your fingers. He is very considerate..."

   Speaking of this, Zhang Jiao paused, as if she was thinking about something.

  But immediately shook his head firmly and said:

"Maybe he is the most considerate and loving man I have ever seen. I won't ask you for a massage until your fingers are swollen and recovered. Rest assured. But Miss Mi has a good nose, and the smell of plaster will make her Worried about Brother Xu feeling uncomfortable, he will feel distressed and worried. So you must pay attention next time."

  Su Meng's heart trembled.

   This insight…

  Whether Director Xu or Sister Jiaojiao...

   It's not easy.
