I'm a Director, I'm Not Bad Chapter 532

  Chapter 532 530. Waiting for an accident to change the old heart

  Xu Xin disappeared all day long, only he himself knows how many things he has done. But for others, it's just a day.

  Back to West Film Studio, he once again devoted himself to the busy post-production, working hard for the perfection of the last "process" of "The Hawthorn Tree".

  Finally, on the 24th.

  Finally, after a series of "processes" from soundtrack to editing, to post-production, etc., this... I don't know if people will define it as a work of art or a handicraft, and it is finally completed.

   When it was completed, an internal screening was held in the large auditorium of Xiying Film Studio.

   It's hard to say what everyone thinks, it's just...

   At the end of the movie, the audience burst into applause.

  Including the lead actor, everyone gave Xu Xin applause.

   Expressed my inner respect to the director who brought a pleasing work.

  Then, Tian Shuanghe, who was already ready to go, hurriedly sent someone to Venice.

   And Xu Xin's mission was completely over.

   "Are you sure you don't want to turn around with me?"

   Jay Chou asked:

   "Don't be loyal, I've been helping you for so long, why don't you come with me to rest there for a few days?"

   "I can't rest, I have to go to Hengdian to accompany my wife, and then go to Shanghai. There is a movie waiting for me."

  In the villa, Xu Xin shrugged helplessly at him:

   "What's more, you won't be able to stay there for a few days? You have to come back from the player training."

   "Then what can I do~"

   Jay Chou also shrugged.

   "And feed a bunch of people."

   These words are not human words.

  If others hear it, they may feel wow, Jay Chou is so dedicated.

  But in fact, Xu Xin is just like Ming Jing in his heart. He just went back to shoot the MV.

  Shooting the song named "How are you".

   That song was specially written for the married woman Hou Peichen.

  Actually, on this point, whether it is Xu Xin or Lang Lang, they have all blocked...

  Everyone is married, why are you still stalking?

  But emotionally, I have to admit that Jay Chou, the sweet girl master, is indeed like a child. Up to now, he still feels that "Little Huang" stole his princess.

  Resolutely refuse to admit that you have done something wrong.

   He won't even admit it, maybe he was braver at the beginning and didn't delay it for so long, then the two of them might have a completely different ending.

   But...

  No one else can talk about this.

  Xu Xin and Lang Lang didn't try to persuade them after seeing it.

  Because at least the wheels stick to the bottom line.

   For this song, he didn't name it, and he didn't mention the last name.

  Since it was written out of emotion, let's get it out.

  And then... what the fuck.

   Even without Lang Lang's knowledge, Xu Xin watched his cutscenes.

  The sub-shots of the MV are very scattered, but after Xu Xin read these stick figures, he knew what he wanted.

  In terms of the friendship between the four, Xu Xin must be the one who knows the most.

  In Jay Chou's sub-shots, almost all of them are based on his own home.

There is a picture of a man and a woman leaning on the sofa and playing that very old-fashioned video game. It is the memory of him and Hou Peichen who had to cancel the date because they were worried that there would be too many paparazzi outside, and could only stay at home and play video games. .

   There is also a scene where the two of them secretly go to the game hall to play various small games. The photo is still in Jay Chou's photo album.

  Because the two performed supernormally that day, after successfully getting rid of the paparazzi, they slipped into the game hall on the street and had an excellent experience.

  In short, everything is his and her memories.

  And this kind of memory condensed into this MV called "How are you".

  He wanted to go back and shoot it.

  Xu Xin didn't stop either.

  So he didn't expose the other party's lies, but just laughed:

   "Then let's go quickly, and walk in a leisurely way."

  Jay Chou was stunned for a moment... smiled and nodded:

"Sure."

  He left first, and Lang Lang's side was almost cleaned up.

   After staying in China for two months, he also has a backlog of work in Europe.

   "The two of us are leaving too."

  Hearing this, Xu Xin nodded:

   "When you go to Miami, remember to check the computer room."

   "Understood, you should quickly arrange your time and get done."

  There is no reluctance to part.

  No need, they are all too familiar.

   Just do what you should be busy with, and we will get together later.

  So, after saying goodbye to everyone like this, Xu Xin snapped his fingers at Su Meng:

   "Mengmeng, let someone come."

   "Okay, Brother Xu."

  The four gentlemen have tossed the villa a lot in the past two months.

   Taking advantage of this time, Su Meng contacted a cleaning team and hurried over to do some cleaning.

   After finishing these things, the two of them can leave.

  Go to Hengdian and accompany Miss Mi.

   But before that, Xu Xin has to do something else.

  Xiying Studio.

   "Director Xu."

   "Well, here we come."

  Looking at Lu Yang who was greeting him, Xu Xin smiled and said hello:

   "Where are the films?"

   "Just sent to the editing room."

  Hearing this, Xu Xin nodded:

   "Go, go and have a look."

"good."

  The two of them walked all the way in the direction of the editing office. While walking, Xu Xin asked:

   "How does it feel to cooperate with Teacher Jin?"

   "It feels great."

  Lu Yang smiled and nodded:

   "The characters are well digested and digested perfectly, and I can't find any faults. It's great! This film can be shot so smoothly, and Teacher Jin owes a lot of credit to it."

  The two were talking about the movie "Cinema for the Blind".

   Filming is over.

   It took less than a month.

   And when Lu Yang came this time, he sent the film to be edited.

  For this debut film of his, he forgot to sleep and eat. He didn't even come when Xu Xin invited him to participate in the celebration of Yichuang House, and he threw himself into the movie.

  But it doesn't matter if he comes or not.

  As the film director that Xu Xin "discovered", it was almost logical for him to join the Art Creation Center of Western Film Studio.

   At this moment, he also showed the haste of a new director. Xu Xin originally wanted to ask more about Jin Shijie, after all, in his eyes, this actor is very serious.

  But Lu Yang asked directly:

   "Director Xu, my film...can it be shown in theaters?"

"Well…"

  Hearing this, Xu Xin turned to look at him, said with a smile:

   "Want to go to theaters?"

"…Um!"

   "Not even a finished film has come out, and the specific quality is not clear, what's the rush?"

  Xu Xin smiled and comforted him.

"Although I have read the script, I have a good sense of the script. But if you want to judge whether a play can be registered in the theaters, the first thing to look at is the quality of the finished film. And, it is not just us who decide whether it can be shown in the theaters. , and have to hand it over to the theaters for judgment.”

  Hearing this, Lu Yang actually wanted to say something: Do they dare to talk about your relationship with Wang Sicong?

   But he also understands that this sentence is tantamount to farting.

   First of all, the quality of my film has not been seen by others. Even if I invest, whether I can get it is another matter.

  Secondly, no matter how good the relationship is, it is still Wanda.

  Guard Xu has proved his ability, so naturally he gets the green light all the way. But I'm still bullshit, I'm basically delusional if I want the theater to revolve around me.

  Even if he follows Director Xu, the reason is the same.

  Besides, the most important thing is that it depends on whether the factory will give support.

  As for why so many bad movies are shown in theaters every year...

Um.

  Your product.

  You try again.

  You taste carefully.

   All the way to the editing room, Lao Zhu is on vacation, and Xiao Zhu is here.

  Old Zhu is Zhu Huailiang.

  Although Xiao Zhu is also surnamed Zhu, he has nothing to do with Lao Zhu.

   is called Zhu Liyun.

  Seeing the two walking in, Zhu Liyun hurriedly stood up.

   "Director Xu."

   "Well, Sister Zhu, Director Lu and I will watch the film, you cut yours, just let us release the rough cut that Director Lu made himself."

"OK."

  Zhu Liyun nodded, and after some operations, the TV hanging on the wall lit up.

   "Cinema for the Blind" Lu Yang himself cut a 16-minute version, sorting out the main line of the story.

  Xu Xin watched the 16-minute version.

   In fairness, what color aesthetics do you want to talk about, or how delicate are the technical means... The former can be said to be nonexistent, and the latter can be said that Lu Yang has not mastered it yet.

   This 16-minute film, even with rough audio, gave Xu Xin the feeling that it was a very flat and simple short film.

  Can't find anything wrong with it.

  But it can also prove from the side that Lu Yang's basic skills are solid.

  He knew that he could not master the rich and colorful lens language, and he also knew that he was just getting started.

  So, he carefully calculated the three million investment from Xu Xin, and spent every penny in the right place.

  Smooth camera controls, solid camera transitions.

  The narrative content is not fancy, and it can even be seen that most of them are posing.

   It can be said that this movie meets the level of all "rookie directors".

  Among the passing scores of 60 points, each frame of the 16-minute content has achieved a level above the passing line.

"Yes, Not Bad."

  Xu Xin nodded:

   "The style is still too vague, but for a debut film, it's pretty solid... How long do you expect this movie to be?"

   "Uh... about... 120 minutes."

   "...so long?"

  Xu Xin was a little surprised, and then recalled the content of the script...

"You should not be able to reach 120 minutes. After deducting the beginning and the end, I think this film is about 95 minutes, which is the limit. Don't just think about adding and subtracting movies. You have to choose and choose. The structure of the film will be very bloated. Therefore, it is better to know what to give up and what to gain."

"I will try my best."

  Lu Yang answered somewhat reluctantly.

   But Xu Xin understood how he felt.

   It's the same as when he directed "The Secret" for the first time.

   Really, when some scenes in "Secret" were cut, he had the heart to kill Qi Lei's family.

   Everyone came from this period.

  Others said it was useless.

  The best way is to fully communicate with the editor, and then wait for the film editing to be completed, cool down for two or three months, and then look back, it will be a completely different feeling.

  So, he didn't get too entangled in this aspect:

   "Follow your ideas first. Contact me if you have any difficulties, how about it?"

   "...Hmm! No problem. So what do I do next?"

"After editing the film, send it to the distribution department. They will watch your film. We have an internal... let's call it an evaluation system. Everyone evaluates it. If you think this film is good, start operating theaters. You All you have to do is get the movie done..."

   Speaking of this, Xu Xin made a joke:

"It's best to call Chen Shu over too. On the one hand, fill out the membership procedures in the screenwriter club, on the other hand... I guess you'll have to stay here for at least 20 days and a month, so she won't be able to find her when the time comes." I'll get angry with you again when I'm with you, haha~"

"…hey-hey."

  Lu Yang couldn't help laughing:

   "She can't make it through for the time being. She has an inspiration recently and wants to make a martial arts script, and she is currently picking up the wind."

   "Martial Arts?"

   "Yes, it seems to be the story of Jin Yiwei. But the script is still in the stage of finding inspiration. After I finish my work, we can see if we can get it out together. Then I can ask Director Xu to see it?"

   "Okay. Let's talk then."

  Xu Xin readily agreed.

   Didn't take it as a big deal.

  Script creation, the story is only the first level.

  To make a story into a script, you need to design scenes, build characters, simulate the plot, and so on.

   is a very tedious job.

   Even the story hasn't come out yet. I really don't know the year of the monkey until the script comes out.

   Met with Lu Yang in the factory, and his mission in Xi'an was basically over.

  Everyone left, and he was left alone.

  Copyed "The Hawthorn Tree" and various audio files into his computer, intending to take it back to show Yang Mi. He waited patiently for both villas to be cleaned, and it was evening.

  Taking advantage of the cover of night, the two officially retired from Xi'an, left temporarily, and rushed to Hengdian.

  By the time we got to Hengdian, it was already past 9 pm.

  There was no surprise attack this time, he knocked on the door obediently.

   It was Yang Dalin who opened the door, but what he heard was the crying of a child.

   "It's coming?... Hurry up, let's see who's coming~"

"what happened?"

  Although it wasn't too dusty, Xu Xin, who pushed the suitcase into the door, looked at the two crying children sitting on the sofa with a puzzled expression on his face.

  Yang Chunling looked helpless:

   "Nuan Nuan misses her mother. When she cries, she takes Yang Yang with her...Okay, okay, Nuan Nuan, don't cry anymore, look who's back..."

   "Whoah!"

  The crying child who is in high spirits doesn't care what you say?

  Can't understand anything.

  So, amidst the crying of the children, he quickly went to the bathroom to wash his hands, sat on the sofa and hugged the two children in his arms.

   "Okay, okay, dad is back, don't cry, don't cry..."

   I can't be coaxed like this.

  What to do?

Simple.

   Or say it's my own father.

  In an instant, the crying stopped.

  The child's attention is immediately on "flying".

   After tossing it twice in a row, giggling laughter sounded.

  But the faces of Yang Dalin and Yang Chunling turned green.

  When a grandma or grandpa is really reluctant to treat a child like this.

   I was afraid that something might go wrong.

   But you are looking at this kind of dear father...

  The old couple were afraid that he might make a mistake, but they didn't dare to say anything, for fear that Xu Xin would distract him.

   But after such an effort, the crying of the two children gradually stopped.

  At this time, Xu Xin asked:

   "Where's Yang Mi?"

   "Going to attend a reading meeting..."

"oh oh."

  Hearing this, he didn't urge him, and just played there with the two children.

   After playing for more than half an hour, at the beginning of ten o'clock, the door of the room was opened. Yang Mi glanced at her husband sitting on the sofa, and nodded:

"I'm home?"

"Um."

  Xu Xin responded, and the two little guys in his arms immediately became agitated when they saw their mother coming back.

   Seeing this, Yang Mi said directly:

   "Mom and Dad, you go to bed, we can take it with you."

   After speaking, he looked at Xu Xin again:

   "Go and put water in the tub, the two children have to take a bath today."

   "It's ten o'clock... Still washing? Don't go to bed?"

   "The time difference between the two of them is a little messy recently, so we have to push back for two hours."

"…Fine."

The couple returned to the master bedroom. After Xu Xin cleaned out the baby tubs used by the two children and put the water in, the moment they came out, they saw the child's naked mother, one in each hand, holding the two little ones and the other. It's like sending a son to Guanyin.

   "Okay, you two stop eating, go take a bath with Mom and Dad."

   Pulling away ruthlessly, Xu Xin tacitly took over his son.

  The family of four squeezed into the bathroom.

   There is no such thing as a romantic couple's bath. If there are children here, the little ones must come first.

  Xu Xin played with two little guys sitting in the bathtub, and Yang Mi was taking a bath there amid the sound of splashing water next to her.

  While washing, she said:

   "Everyone has changed a lot."

"ah?"

  Xu Xin turned her head, seeing that the foam on her head was almost flushed, and handed over the conditioner tacitly:

"What?"

"I said, everyone has changed a lot. Obviously, when we were filming together before, including me, they weren't too popular, right? Then during "Three Guns", Sister Nier and I met at the Golden Horse Awards On the one hand, it doesn't feel like there's been a big change...but this time around, I found that everyone has changed a lot.”

  In the sound of rushing water, Xu Xin thought for a while and asked after hearing this:

   "Become utilitarian?"

   "Although it's not so utilitarian, it's more or less like this for a few bad guys. Otherwise, why would you come to me after paying respects to the director at the first dinner?"

  Amidst Xu Xin's silence, the wife who bent down and applied conditioner to her hair sighed:

"Well... since I came on the 17th and 8th, we have only gathered together once. I actually thought it was quite simple. First, it was to give Wushuang a perfect ending. Second, after many years and We didn't get together anymore, this time we got together, we filmed during the day, and found a place to drink and have a drink at night... Isn't it good? Anyone can change, but we all came through together at the beginning, so we won't change so quickly Bar…"

   "Well, what then?"

   "Then? Discuss coffee status, talk about future, ask for resources, compare popularity... Even a Weibo fan can come up with something, do you think it's necessary?"

   While I was talking, I finished applying the conditioner.

  Yang Mi's slanted bangs that restored the unparalleled shape popped out of the gathered hair a little restlessly.

   "I just have more fans than her, as for..."

   "...Yao Chen?"

"Um."

   "How much more are you than her?"

"It's not much, maybe a million or so. When Weibo was first launched, "Latent" became popular, but she never competed with me. I was the first to break 30, and I was also the first to break 1 million. Now I'm over six hundred and forty, and she's five hundred and one. I don't know if I drank too much or something at the dinner party that day, so I hooked my shoulders and argued against me... What's the need."

  Yang Mi looked helpless:

"Then this time Xiaoliu and I acted with trepidation. Lao Sha used to always have a girl who is older than a younger girl, and now he doesn't dare to be so casual... Yan Ni always asks me about the West Film Studio, which means TV dramas. Enough filming, I want to make a movie... Anyway, everyone seems to have become quite a lot.”

   "You are too naive."

  Hearing this, Xu Xin shrugged his shoulders, and while pouring water on the child, he said:

   "This is a circle of fame and fortune, and we should have prepared for it long ago."

"But this time, I really want to... shoot a movie happily with everyone, and give everyone a happy ending. After all, it has been confirmed, and I will not shoot "Part Two". This is the ending... But I really didn't expect it to become like this... Hey, you know what? The biggest change is Lao Yu."

   "Yu Entai?"

"Well. I think he's really bewildered... He's stuck in the performance theory system and can't get out. It's a bit unearthly. I'm not saying it's bad, I just think...he is particularly resistant to commercialization, you know What do I mean?

   It is the feeling he gives me now, purer than any actor. But this kind of purity makes me unable to feel the closeness to life of his performance.

   Just…acting for the sake of acting, not integrating acting into my life…

  In the past, when everyone was out of the show, they would add a late-night snack when they were hungry, and make appointments for shabu-shabu or something. In the end these two days, don't talk about forming a game, he didn't even drink alcohol at the dinner we met for the first time… Although the relationship is still here, I don't understand how pure he is…

  It gave me the same feeling as Teacher He Bing in the regiment. "

   "The actor from Renyi?"

"Yes. They are very similar. At first glance, they are highly educated and have rich acting experience... But, maybe I am narrow-minded? But the feeling that Lao Yu gave me now is the same as when I watched He Bing act in the troupe. I feel that they are themselves in everything they play. You say that he has good acting skills and there is nothing wrong with him. But the problem is that he plays himself all the time. What do you think he played?"

   What she said, she could understand it to her brother.

   He must have been holding back his heart for many days, but now he has not stopped chattering.

   And Xu Xin is listening more than expressing opinions.

   He is not familiar with the crew of "Wulin Biography".

  The friendship is certainly not as deep as that of his wife.

   Therefore, the right to speak is definitely not as good as that of the wife.

   It can be said that there are ten thousand words and ten thousand words. How many years has it been since "Wulin Biography"?

  A play from 2006.

   It's been four years.

  Four years~

   Enough to change people in this circle.

  It is normal for people to change.

   To put it bluntly, outside of the pure performance world, isn't fame and fortune what everyone is fighting for?

normal.

   It's not bad if you don't turn against each other.

  Thinking of this, he said with some emotion:

   "If life is just like the first meeting..."

  Amid the sound of splashing water, Yang Mi nodded:

   "Yes, the heart of this old friend... It really changes as soon as it is said. Once it changes, it will never go back to the past."

   Push the book! "China Entertainment 1997" boss's new book. You can tell the quality just by looking at the name, right? Haha, recommended!
