I'm a Director, I'm Not Bad Chapter 491

  Chapter 491 489. Half-step reproduction

  Xu Xin actually has no research on Dream of the Red Chamber...

  The main reason is that he can't accept the twists and turns of group portraits like Dream of Red Mansions.

   When I was a child, I read the four great classics, but only Dream of the Red Chamber, regardless of how beautiful the good sisters in the 87 version of Dream of the Red Chamber were, he just couldn't read them.

   I feel special...boring.

  It is the same until now.

   He even insisted on summarizing, he probably knows some story passages of Dream of Red Mansions, such as Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, Daiyu, Qingwen Balabala...

   But if you ask him what story he told, he will definitely shake his head and say he doesn't know.

   I am speechless.

   He is also a great director with some achievements.

  But the Red Mansion didn't know what story to tell, nor did it know how many people's teeth would be shocked when it was told.

   But that's the truth.

   I just don't like it, there is no particular dislike.

  At this moment, the two looked up at "New Dream of Red Mansions" on the big screen.

   After watching for about a minute, Xu Xin said:

   "It seems that... Lin Daiyu just entered Jia's house... and just started acting?"

   "It's about the same. I remember that there was a story about a fairy monk who took a piece of precious jade..."

  Yang Mi shook her head slightly, and withdrew her gaze:

   "Let's go, take a stroll, this screen is too bright, the child's eyes can't bear it."

"good."

  The two of them turned around and walked towards the group of dancing old aunts.

   Nuan Nuan and Yang Yang like listening to music and watching dancing.

   Nuan Nuan is listening, and Yang Yang is watching.

  Specially pick those kind of aunts who are in their thirties and forties and still have charm.

  Too old is not only his dislike, but also his father's.

   "Dong blah~ dong ba dong bala~ dong ba dong bala~ dong ba dong bala~~~"

  Pushing the baby carriage, I came to the group of mature women in the square. Amidst the strong DJ music, Yang Mi suddenly said:

   "Do you know those actors?"

   "Who?...the one from Dream of the Red Chamber just now?"

"Um."

"do not know."

  Xu Xin shook his head.

"There are so many actors now...whether male or female. Every day, newcomers squeeze into this circle. Don't just look at their looks, just those who attended some event and greeted me. I can remember at most one person out of a hundred. What's more, they are still wearing ancient costumes... and I can't accept the look. Those circles on the head... look very awkward."

   After he finished speaking, he looked at his wife who was also staring at others dancing:

   "What? Regret it? Want to play Lin Daiyu?"

   "Think about it, but don't regret it."

  Yang Mi shrugged:

   "I don't regret not making it, but it's true... Don't you think the three words "Lin Daiyu" have a special charm for actresses? It's the same as no male actor can refuse to play Monkey King."

"Well…"

   Facing this metaphor, Xu Xin thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of any necessary connection between the two.

  Monkey King...isn't it only Liu Xiaolingtong who can act?

  He has blocked the role of Monkey King.

  No one can surpass it.

  Actually, looking at the long history of film and television dramas, there are really many things where this kind of character is fixed to death by a certain actor.

   For example, Ji Gong.

  Except for Mr. You, everyone else's acting taste is wrong.

  Even as a director, in his subjective impression, he would not accept anyone other than Mr. You and Sixth Teacher to play these roles.

   I feel awkward.

  You remember reading "Journey to the West" when I was a child... In fact, it makes sense, and the story is quite exciting.

   Now that I think about it, the character "No Sky" has been given quite a bit of philosophical meaning.

  But when I saw that Monkey King...Xu Xin became numb.

   Not to mention the endless playback shots.

   At that time, he really looked stupid.

   And Lin Daiyu, as his wife said, is for an actress...

  He really has no special feeling.

  Lin Daiyu... What a hypocritical person.

  Anyway, in the eyes of the gentlemen, a woman like her who can shed tears and be heartbroken because of flowers is really hypocritical to a certain extent.

  Maybe this is also the main reason why he can't see the red building.

  He was so hypocritical that he wanted to vomit.

   Then he said:

   "What is the name of Lin Daiyu in the old version of "Red Mansion"? I remember that she seems to be a monk?"

   "I don't know, I forgot."

   "...then you still want to act?"

  Xu Xin was a little speechless.

  The co-authors, we are pure idiots, are we bragging here?

   But Yang Mi looked back at the big screen again, with envy in her tone:

   "That's Lin Daiyu. If you don't act well, at most people will say you ruined the show. But if you act well, this label will be slapped on you. Where will you go and people won't look at you high?"

  “…Aren't you afraid of being restricted?”

   "Anyway, I'm not afraid. What's there to be afraid of if it's a huge profit?"

  Hearing this, his attributes of a doting wife and madman erupted, and he said:

   "Then let me invest in one for you. Let's make a new version of "Dream of Red Mansions", how about it?"

   "Who is Xinxin?"

  Bitch, are you still in the mood to play tricks at this time?

  He was speechless, but Yang Mi chuckled lightly:

   "Hey...I'm kidding. But I don't know how to shoot or act."

   "Why? Didn't you say that you really want to play Lin Daiyu? What... She means something different to an actress."

   "Well... brother, from birth to now, is there anything you can't ask for? Or a dream?"

   "...what do you mean?"

   "It's just...let me put it this way."

  Yang Mi shrugged her shoulders, and there was a look of reminiscence in her tone:

   "I liked Liu Xiaoqing very much when I was young. I think she is so beautiful! In the future, I must look like her, so graceful and luxurious..."

   “Then she evades taxes.”

  Yang Mi was a little speechless. After giving him a blank look, she continued:

   "But the more I grow up, the more I realize that I am far from Liu Xiaoqing's appearance..."

   Speaking of this, she is still a little proud:

   "Humph, I'm much prettier than her."

   This time it was Xu Xin's turn to be speechless.

   Didn't even understand what she was trying to express.

   Then I heard her continue:

"What I want to express is that I must regret not being able to play Lin Daiyu. But this kind of regret has contributed to my today. Think about it, if I play Lin Daiyu, then I will continue to stay in the company. Then...you Do you think the company will allow me to get married and have children at this age? Mr. Li might blow the pot."

   "Just fry the fryer, and I'm not afraid of her."

  Xu Xin looked indifferent, but Yang Mi shook her head:

"I'm not afraid. At that time, your old man will take action, no matter it is a lawsuit or something, and everyone will break up in the end...Why bother? One more thing is worse than one less thing. My regret is not that I can't play Lin Daiyu, but that I can't play it Lin Daiyu in this play. At that juncture, I only had supporting roles in "Wulin Biography" and "Secret". If I could play Lin Daiyu, I would definitely be... But now I am not bad, even better, Are you right?"

   "So what are you trying to say?"

   "What I want to express is..."

   Speaking of this, she turned her head and glanced at the big screen again.

  Because of the angle, she has to look up when she looks at it.

   She looked up, under the light, her face was full of pride:

   "I didn't play Lin Daiyu, although it's a pity, but I don't regret it. And if I want to play Lin Daiyu, I'm definitely better than her!"

  Looking at the expression on her face, Xu Xin turned to look at the big screen again, and said dumbfoundedly:

   "That's it? Is this what you think? Going around in circles... that's it?"

   "Hey, what's the matter?"

  She seemed to be really happy, pinching her waist, her eyes full of confidence:

"I don't regret knowing you, or...being with you, I think it is the most correct and happiest thing I have ever done in my life. Compared with this thing, no matter what regrets I have, It's not even worth mentioning."

  While speaking, she held Xu Xin's hand, her eyes full of affection:

"I am your wife, and you are my husband... We have such a lovely pair of children. We are about to enter the palace of marriage... My career is still so popular and so good... The combined value of these things, compared to a Lin Daiyu, I don't know how many times more! So... Let her be the most inconspicuous little regret in my life. I don't want you to make up for it, and I don't care what kind of popularity this girl who played Lin Daiyu will become in the end... because I With you!"

  Speaking of this, she let go of Xu Xin's hand again, walked forward a few steps, and turned around suddenly:

   "Xu Xin!"

  An ominous premonition suddenly emerged from Xu Xin's heart.

  Let him hold the child's stroller tightly amid the shouts that attracted the attention of many onlookers.

   Then, under everyone's attention, the young woman in a baseball cap raised her hands, bent them towards the top of her head, and gestured into a "heart" shape:

   "Salang Hey~~~"

  His palms were sweating all of a sudden, and Xu Xin, who was blushing, turned his head away without saying a word.

  Who is this?

do not know.

  Pushing the child, he strolled to the side.

   is like an irrelevant passerby.

   No, it's too shameful.

  Even if you don't call me by my name, you can call me “husband” or “brother” or something like that.

   Or is there something we can't say in private?

   You are not doing this in public.

   There's really... something wrong.

   slipped away.

   At the back of her head, the young woman who didn't get a response froze for a moment...

   There was a bad taste in the corner of his mouth:

   "Hey, I'm confessing my love to you! What are you doing?...Hey, that man pushing the twin baby stroller, wait...turn around and look at me!"

  I see you little mushroom!

  Xu Xin pretended not to hear.

  Although he didn't look back, he dared to bet that many people must be looking this way.

   Crazy girl!

  In the future, how will you let me mess around in this generation?

  He subconsciously wanted to quicken his pace.

  At this time, Yang Mi's voice suddenly sounded again:

   "Hey, who do you think this is?"

  Hearing this, Xu Xin turned his head subconsciously.

   Pure instinct.

  While turning his head, he thought to himself, can we still meet acquaintances in this place?

   It can't be someone from the crew, right?

   Just thinking about it, he saw his wife's smug smile.

  The instinct to look back turned into a bad feeling.

   "Hi! Half-step Bengquan!"

  Xu Xin's face turned red immediately.

  What the hell, he watched the interview with hundreds of people yesterday, but now seeing the actions of the matchmakers, he was so ashamed that his scalp began to tingle.

  The two little guys also looked around in a daze when they heard their mother's voice behind them.

   Have no idea what's going on.

  What about Xu Xin?

   Turn back quickly, quicken your pace, and flee the scene.

  Bitch... What do you call half-step Bengquan?

  If you punch me seriously, I can comfort myself by saying that you are practicing martial arts in the square.

   But you call it a half-step Bengquan with a **** fist! ?

  Can you be yourself?

  He left quickly, taking seven steps.

   Another sound that was faster than a gun came to my ears:

   "Hey, young man, what are you doing so fast?"

   "Don't run away, I'm not a good person..."

   "Young Xia, are you married? Did I give birth to you?"

   "Young Hero..."

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!

  Shut up! !

  It was the same as the night in Dashilan after coming out of Deyun Club.

  He ran forward with shameful steps, and the She Niu behind him chased him fearlessly.

  The two little guys in the car wanted to hold the seat belt like an umbilical cord.

  Dad, I'm already out, so why don't we go crazy?

  People say that after youth is gone, they will never look back.

   This is quite right.

   Anyway, he didn't dare to look back.

   Didn't dare to take a step.

  Played, made trouble, got angry, bought a popsicle and coaxed it.

  Yang Mi put her hands on Xu Xin's shoulders with a rogue face, her eyes were full of complacency, and her mouth was filled with earnest warnings from the seniors:

   "Come out to mess around, what face do you want? With such a thin skin, you can't control the situation, you know?"

   "I think back then, I was alone with a watermelon knife! From Nantianmen to Penglai East Road..."

   "Love~he~righteousness...value! Thousands! Gold!"

Fine.

  There are few people on the street at the moment.

  You can do whatever you want.

  Xu Xin let her convulse there.

  Walking all the way home, when she was almost at the door, she suddenly said:

   "I'm going to wear a suit today!"

   "Put it on...huh?"

  Xu Xin was taken aback.

  You bastard, what are you wearing... oh~~~~

  He suddenly realized, and nodded vigorously:

"Um!"

  Outside is outside, at home...you can play whatever you want.

   Hum.

  My old pig will accompany you!

  That night and the next few days, Xu Xin's life was pretty good.

  Anyway, the couple have never been disappointed in each other in a certain way since they first realized it.

  There will always be some unusually rich ideas in the minds of the people of some countries who are living a good life, for the two of them to refer to and entertain.

   During the day, a week is enough time for Xu Xin to read all the materials prepared by everyone.

This is good news.

   But bad news followed.

  After going through a rough sieve to eliminate repetitive, redundant, or inconsistent themes, he still has to discuss with everyone what remains.

   And he discovered a flaw in the materials everyone made this time.

   That's just too much going on with the food.

  They want to discuss the cultural features and historical changes of this country through food.

  But the materials you are preparing now cannot be particularly balanced.

  So this week, he has been working on improvement.

   Ren Changzhen and the others may have to increase their workload again.

   But this is also a good thing.

  The more meticulous the preparation, the more exciting the shooting will be.

   Along the way, he returned to Yanjing with Yang Mi with a work mood.

  Yang Mi will only stay for one day, and return to Chikan tomorrow morning.

   And this time he went directly to Xi'an.

  The talent base in Xi'an was delayed for a while because of the addition of Yindu, but it can be considered a deal.

  However, Xu Xin went this time to determine the internal list, and he might even take up some positions in it. And when it comes to the opening ceremony in July, everyone from Shuangwei will go, and Yang Mi will not go there until then.

  Back to the home where they had been away for a long time, the couple didn't stay long.

  Basically, they went home and went around. After Yang Mi packed a few clothes, she got back into the car and walked towards Shijia Hutong.

  When they arrived at Shijia Hutong, the two found that the entire courtyard was beyond recognition.

  There are a lot of decoration materials piled up in the compound of the three courtyards. Except for the wider entrance, the other places are more or less crowded and messy.

  The previous greenhouse, the grape trellis that carried the No. 1 memory of the most astringent grapes the couple had ever eaten, and many other things have been demolished. And there are nearly 30 workers working in three batches on the whole site.

  The civil engineering part is coming to an end, although it is a bit messy, the couple still went around separately.

Xu Xin's studio is on the east side, and the original house in the middle is still his home. Although Xu Daqiang said that the house on the far right was reserved for Xu Miao, in this renovation, Yang Mi was also given freedom. played out.

  Whether it is a practice room, gazebo, rockery, pond fish...

   She can do whatever she wants.

   As far as the current situation is concerned, the construction cost of these three yards alone is close to two million yuan.

   This is just civil engineering.

   And because there are regulations here, two floors cannot be built.

   That is to say, the basic construction of three flat-storey rooms has already cost so much.

  As for the greening, gardening and landscaping transformation, interior decoration, etc., which will be the highlight of the next event, it is conservatively estimated that the total cost of the house's interior and exterior will be at least 30 million yuan, or even higher.

   Brackets: Not considered furniture.

  No way, who made her want Suzhou gardens.

   And seeing the owner of the house come back, the leader of the construction team hurried over, his tone warm, polite, and flattering.

  Take out a cigarette from his pocket and give it to Xu Xin.

   While letting go, he also said in his mouth:

   "Director Xu, the company stipulates that smoking is prohibited on site. But this is your home, you can smoke as much as you want, and just hand over the cigarette butts to me."

   These words highlight a principle, and the flexibility under the principle.

   And indeed, Xu Xin walked this way without finding a single cigarette butt.

  Xin said that these decoration workers are indeed quite particular.

  So he politely waved his hand, indicating that he would stop smoking, then looked at the beams of the house, turned to his wife and asked:

   "Who came on the day the beam was raised? Did you give the red envelope?"

   "Yes, my dad happened to be in Yanjing that day, so he came."

  As soon as Yang Mi finished speaking, the foreman quickly responded:

"Yes, yes. Boss Xu is very generous. He paid 2,000 yuan for one person. Director Xu, don't worry, we have carefully crafted this house. Whether it is masonry or wood, we use the best quality." .Including the grades of concrete are also the highest! You live!"

   "Haha, that's fine."

  Xu Xin nodded with a smile, and after chatting with him for a few more words, he proposed to hang out with Yang Mi casually.

  The foreman also left with great interest.

  So, the two of them started walking around the house and the yard. While strolling, Yang Mi told him about the plan.

  What? I want to build a fish pond here, and a grape trellis and gazebo over there...

   Anyway, the blueprints are all in her head.

   And the layout of these three courtyard houses, in Xu Xin's opinion, is also a bit similar to the standard of the big family in the TV series... He even wondered whether his wife borrowed the layout of some filming locations in Hengdian...

   But it doesn't matter.

  He is not very picky about the living environment of his family, not to mention that he has a separate Yijin courtyard there.

  Whether it is a study room, an audio-visual studio, a game room, a tea room or a cigar bar, everything is available.

   Then all work together.

  After wandering around Shijia Hutong for more than an hour, the two returned to the car sweating, and drove towards Qinchuan Yashe.

  Tonight's dinner is arranged here.

   And there are not only places to eat, but also a comprehensive club and a rest area. And Sun Ting is waiting for the two of them over there.

  She went to check the venue in advance.

   In short, all the trivial things are done, and by the time he holds a cup of tea and blows on the air conditioner to sweat, it is already 4:00 p.m. or 5:00 p.m.

   While holding the cup of tea, Xu Xin suddenly said:

   "Hey, I..."

  Yang Mi, who was playing with her mobile phone, turned her head:

"What's wrong?"

"Well…"

  Xu Xin froze for a moment, then frowned:

   "I just... eh? What did I want to ask you just now? Wait, let me think about it..."

  Yang Mi blinked, wondering why she was so forgetful all of a sudden?

   Could it be that I squeezed too much time this week?

   Don't they all say that a man's kidneys are not good, and his memory will decline... Could it be his own fault?

  She subconsciously glanced at the phone screen.

  On the screen of the mobile phone is the Taobao APP program, and the products inside are all stockings one after another.

  Her legs look good in stockings, and Xu Xin also likes them.

  So she often "sweeps goods".

  Buy more, such as solid color ones today, patterned ones tomorrow, and white silk when you feel better the day after tomorrow.

   And when you are in a better mood, you can also match black and white.

   But now she hastily reopened the search interface, and typed two words:

   "Reinforcing the Kidney"

  A row of various commodities appeared in sight.

  Xu Xin showed a distressed expression:

   "What did I want to tell you just now?"

   "What? Where?"

   "Just one thing..."

  Yang Mixin said nonsense.

   Otherwise, what are we talking about here?

  But Xu Xin couldn't remember anything.

  It is clearly on the lips, but also in the mind, but I can't think of it.

   This made him very uncomfortable.

   After thinking for a while, he finally gave up and shook his head:

   "Forget it... pretend I didn't say it."

   "You didn't say anything."

  The woman who selected several products and added them to the shopping cart replied without looking up.

   And when she was about to check out, her phone screen suddenly vibrated and turned into an incoming call screen.

   Seeing the caller, Yang Mi connected the phone directly and asked:

   "Jiaojiao, what's wrong?"

   "Sister, the purchasing agent I contacted has already bought the pair of shoes Brother Xu wanted, and they are sending them to China. They will arrive in about ten days. Let me tell you."

   "Well, okay, I see... when are you coming?"

   "Getting ready to leave... are you there?"

"Um."

   "Ah! Then I'll come!"

   Zhang Jiao's voice was flustered.

  How can there be any reason to let the boss wait for you?

   "It's okay, don't worry, we just wandered around and came here directly. Take your time and pay attention to safety."

  Yang Mi gave an order, and after hanging up the phone, she said to her elder brother who was still thinking hard:

   "The pair of shoes you want has already been bought by a purchasing agent, and it will arrive here in about ten days..."

   "Ah yes!"

  Slapping the table with a slap, Xu Xin, who finally remembered what he wanted to say, couldn't laugh or cry:

   "I just want to ask you about these shoes... Ouch, look at my brain, the words are on my lips, but I can't think of them."

   "I was stunned for a while, it's okay, I can put it on in ten days. I bought two pairs, and each of us has a pair."

   Yang Mi said as she reopened Taobao and found the shopping cart.

  I placed an order for all the herbal tea bags like "Kidney Essence Grass" in the shopping cart.

   It's not enough to exhaust the lake and fish. We have to take the road of sustainable development.
