I'm a Director, I'm Not Bad Chapter 78

Chapter 78 076. After becoming famous, there are good people around

Footprints.

Or footprints.

yes.

Why didn't I think of it before?

Speaking farther away, in the ancient Olympic Games created by Greece, the only sport in the first session was running.

Run around a field less than 200 meters.

It can be said that the first event of the Olympic Games was "measured" with feet.

On a larger scale, didn't the entire modern Olympic Games come about step by step? It is a product of human civilization, one step at a time, and the footsteps of countless athletes...or light, or firm, or elegant, or persistent...

Stepped out step by step by the footsteps of these athletes.

Footprints…

Doesn't it fit well with the Olympic spirit?

All of a sudden, Xu Xin's gaze went blank, and he stared straight at the girl who had finished flying and looked like a dead body hanging in mid-air. For a moment, the proposition of "footprints" was completely overwhelmed in his mind. flooded.

Instinctively, he took out the phone.

"Doo~ Hey, Xiao Xu."

Wei Lanfang's phone rang:

"What's the matter?"

"Sister Wei, hurry up, help me find Director Zhang!"

"…ah?"

Wei Lanfang on the other end of the phone was a little stunned, but still responded quickly.

Because Xu Xin's voice sounded urgent.

Quickly walked to Zhang Yimou who was frowning at the camera:

"Director, Xiao Xu is looking for you."

"Xiao Xu?..."

Zhang Yimou looked around subconsciously.

Wasn't he still there just now?

Why is there no one now?

After answering the phone, he waved his hand at the leading actors sitting on the chairs opposite the camera, signaling for a break, and connected the phone at the same time:

"Hello, Xiao Xu?"

On the other side, Wang Haihu, the assistant director of the "Sculpture of God" crew, heard the security guard's inquiry, and walked out of the crew in confusion, and then saw a young man with a phone standing outside the crew.

So young?

Directed by Zhang Yimou?

He was taken aback for a moment, and then he had a rough estimate in his heart.

It should be field affairs and props, right?

Are you here to borrow props?

Isn't it possible...

Didn't he say he was looking for someone?

While thinking, Wang Haihu walked towards Xu Xin.

Then I heard a sentence:

"Hey, director! It's footprints, footprints!"

The tone was urgent and urgent, and Wang Haihu was taken aback when he heard it.

But he immediately realized that it was absolutely impossible for Zhang Yimou to be on the other end of the phone.

There are too many people in the crew who can be called "directors". The recording can be the director, the camera can also be the director... Even as the director's assistant, he is called the assistant director.

Um!

Definitely yes.

Then, he came within five steps of Xu Xin.

heard another sentence:

"Didn't you try to shoot the shots for Brother Fa and Sister Gong Li? My friend is here, let me take a look... Then I just saw her hanging on Wia, step by step, I suddenly thought of it..."

Wang Haihu paused subconsciously.

Brother Fa...it can't be...Zhou Renfa, right?

Miss Gong Li...

Is there anyone else in this circle with this name?

Could it be that Zhang Yimou is really on the other end of the phone?

No...impossible, right?

This young man can communicate directly with Director Zhang! ?

At this time, Xu Xin, who was sideways, also found the person in front of him.

He nodded slightly at first, then pointed to the phone, and took a few steps back at the same time.

Wang Haihu heard another sentence:

"It's footprints, Director Zhang, the kind of footprints that take one step at a time...I think it would be very good to express it with footprints!...Well, I'm on the crew of "Sculpture of the Gods"...Okay, okay, I'll go back now. I happen to have I need to talk to you about something...okay, ten minutes at most!...uh huh."

The phone hung up, Xu Xin looked at the stranger, thought for a while, and said politely:

"Hello, I'm a staff member of the crew of "The Golden Flower in the City". I'm here to look for one of our actors, my name is Yang Mi. But I have something to go back right now. If it's convenient, can you Can you tell her for me, tell her that I have come to look for her, but director Zhang Yimou has something to ask me at this moment, I have to go back, let her go to the "Golden Armor" crew to look for me after she finishes her work. She introduced Director Zhang to get acquainted."

Wang Haihu's mouth twitched...

The waist softened for no reason, and a polite expression appeared on his face:

"Hello, hello, I'm Wang Haihu, the assistant director of the crew of "The Legend of Condor Heroes". You are looking for Mr. Yang Mi, the actor who plays Guo Xiang in our crew, right?"

teacher?

Xu Xin was taken aback for a moment, but immediately understood, and nodded politely:

"right."

As he spoke, he shook hands with the other party, and continued to politely say:

"We said we met before, and today Director Zhang was doing a test shoot in the palace, so I said I would take her to meet Director Zhang. But I couldn't get in touch with her, so I had to come and look for her... Wang Director, please tell her, I don't think she was hanging on to Wia just now, just tell her I've been here, is it convenient for you?”

"Convenient, no problem, don't worry."

Wang Haihu first agreed, and then asked tentatively:

"Then I'll tell him, Director Xu, have you been here?"

"Well, that's right, let her go over there after finishing. Don't make Director Zhang wait too long. Brother Fa, Sister Gong, and Jay Chou are all here today. If it's too late, I won't be able to do it. She will join the group in the future." Not suitable either."

The moment Wang Haihu heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

That actor named Yang Mi is going to join the crew of "Golden Armor"?

Then I heard the young man say politely:

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Director Wang, goodbye."

"Uh... ok ok, see you, Director Xu."

"Well, goodbye."

Watching the young man leave, Wang Haihu frowned subconsciously.

The other party looks very young.

But it was because of this youth that he had a question.

He has such great ability?

Although the work permit cannot be faked...

Was it really Director Zhang Yimou on the other end of the phone?

In terms of belief and non-belief, there are probably six to four.

What's more... that little actor named Yang Mi can really go to the crew of "Golden Armor"?

That's a big guy!

Big production!

Zhang Yimou's movie!

Not to mention any important supporting roles, even a character with lines may be robbed.

Being in Zhou Renfa, Gong Li...not to mention Jay Chou and others, being able to have a positive face in the movies of these two leading actors and director Zhang Yimou, give a close-up, and have lines...

What an opportunity this must be! ?

Frowning, looking at Xu Xin who was going away, Wang Haihu thought about it...

Turned his head and walked towards the crew.

When he returned to the crew, Guo Xiang's scene had just ended.

Several prop masters were untying the rope around the girl.

The little girl's face was pale and her lips were pursed. Even with makeup on, it could be seen that she was sweating profusely.

It must be painful.

He probably knows a little about the Wia prop master this time.

The other actors in Lane complained.

He thought for a while, took out a bottle of mineral water from the incubator filled with ice cubes specially prepared for the leading actors, and then walked up.

"Yang Mi, here, you've worked hard, drink some water."

Yang Mi, who was enduring the pain, froze for a moment.

Obviously, some didn't react.

She knew Wang Haihu, and knew that he was the assistant of the producer Zhang Jizhong, and he had the title of assistant director.

It may be hard for outsiders to believe that there are eight assistants in the production crew this time, just with the title of assistant director.

Yes, you are not mistaken.

Eight people.

Although Yang Mi didn't know exactly what was going on, she did know that, including Assistant Wang, three of the eight people were his assistants.

As Zhang Jizhong's assistant, even if he is only an assistant, he has a very important voice in the crew. Because when Zhang Jizhong was away, the three of them were in charge of some things on the set.

On weekdays, I don't have much communication with this Wang Zhu, and he can't afford to communicate with a young actor like myself... He suddenly brought himself a bottle of water today?

Yang Mi's heart skipped a beat...

There is an ominous premonition rising.

It's not about...

But she was afraid in her heart, she still hid the pain on her face, and took it with polite hands:

"Thank you, Director Wang."

"Well, it's okay."

Wang Haihu smiled cheerfully, and said to several prop masters:

"Are you guys tightening up too much? I can see that her face is sweating... I'll take care of it later, don't be sloppy, you know?"

Several prop masters subconsciously froze for a moment.

While still guessing whether Wang Zhu had lost his mind and was meddling in his own business, or if he meant something, he suddenly heard Wang Haihu say something to Yang Mi again:

"It's okay, if Wia makes you feel uncomfortable or something, you can tell them. It looks like your face is pale... is it a strangled pain?"

"No no no... It's okay."

Yang Mi's face was full of denial and smiles.

But I was already a little panicked in my heart, and I called the company to tell the matter after thinking about it for a while.

I still have ten days at most to finish shooting...

What...what are you doing!

Upon hearing this, Wang Haihu nodded:

"Well, anyway, you should be more careful, you know?"

Now, the prop masters understood what Wang Zhu said.

One of them touched the pad on Yang Mi's back waist to prevent the steel wire from strangling her flesh, and said:

"Change the pad, this pad is a little worn."

"OK."

In a word, high-quality pads specially used by big actors are arranged.

Wang Haihu seemed very satisfied, and after nodding, he also said something to Yang Mi:

"After the filming is over in a while, come and find me. Come on, work hard!"

"Uh... good... thank you, Director Wang, for your concern..."

"Um."

Wang Haihu waved his hand and left on his own.

Standing in the distance, he just watched Yang Mi put on a thick pad, put on the wire lock again, and nodded in satisfaction.

Actually, it doesn't matter whether what the young man just said is true or not.

Is director Zhang Yimou on the other end of the phone?

It does not matter.

He and this girl are far from having any enmity, they just happened to be in the same crew.

Let me tell you a word, other people will take care of you, and I dare not say that the other party is grateful to me, but at least a good relationship can be formed.

In the future, it is impossible to say what if someone becomes a wrist, right?

Then it will be easy to talk.

It's just a matter of raising your hands.

It would be better if she met Zhang Yimou or became a master, if not, she would not lose anything.

Is not it?

"...give me thirty."

Hearing this, Xu Xin found 30 yuan in his wallet and handed it over, smiling and waving:

"Thanks, brother."

"Um."

The driver who sent Xu Xin from the gate of the palace to "Sculpture of the Gods" just now, and how did he send him back nodded, and pulled the car back to the side of the cars just now.

Xu Xin went all the way into the palace, and after finding the busy crew following the route he left, Wei Lanfang quickly walked over:

"Why did you come back suddenly?"

"Have an idea..."

Xu Xin raised the notebook in his hand:

"Speak to the director."

"…All right."

Wei Lanfang nodded, pointing to the inside of the palace:

"You hung up the phone just now, and the director's eyes were straightened, and he was sitting there in a daze on the chair. Hurry up, he's waiting."

"good."

Xu Xin stepped into the hall one step at a time, and saw Gong Li and Fa Ge sitting on two chairs, looking majestic and dignified, while Liu Ye was smoking a cigarette, and Cheng Xiaodong was talking to Jay Chou in a golden red robe .

He didn't care, and walked quickly to Zhang Yimou:

"Director."

Zhang Yimou came back to his senses, and after seeing Xu Xin, he nodded:

"What's going on? Tell me."

"Look at this."

Xu Xin took his notebook and turned back a few pages, revealing a sketch.

On the sketch, the shadows of high-rise buildings can be vaguely seen, and at the same time there is a general outline of a bird's nest at the end.

The drawing is very sloppy.

But that's not the point.

The point is the footprints on the tall buildings and bird's nests.

One by one.

In an instant, Zhang Yimou frowned.

I heard Xu Xin say:

"Director, when I was looking for my classmate, I happened to see her hang Wia there. It was like stepping on the air step by step... Suddenly I got inspiration. Why can't we use footprints? 29 footprints..."

Speaking of this, he paused.

Under Zhang Yimou's frowning eyes looking at the picture, he whispered:

"Footprints of Giants!"

In an instant, the frown turned into surprise.

His eyes widened suddenly. The moment Zhang Yimou heard this, the sketch in front of him turned into a dark sky built in his mind.

The golden footprints stepped on the sky, step by step, came to the bird's nest site! ?

Undertake the previous 28th Olympic Games and start the 29th Olympic Games.

The giant of the East took over the fire, stepped on the world step by step, and came to the scene...Then the Olympic Games began...

When this picture appeared in my mind, a word mixed with goosebumps and excitement blurted out:

"Fireworks!"

"Snapped!"

His hand directly tapped on Xu Xin's notebook, and his voice suddenly rose by one degree:

"Use fireworks! Step by step, a total of 29 steps, step on the central axis, cross the Forbidden City, step by step..."

His voice was particularly abrupt in the quiet hall.

Instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Including the actors in front of the camera.

Everyone saw Zhang Yimou pressing the void with his palm, gesticulating, and describing to the young man next to him with eyes full of excitement.

And the young man also nodded:

"Yes, it is to use fireworks to make Teacher Zhai make 29 big footprints!"

"Yes, yes, that's right! Let me tell you, that's right!"

Zhang Yimou looked so excited that he seemed to have forgotten that he was on the shooting scene, so he said directly:

"Xiao Wei, call everyone for a meeting!"

"…ah???"

Wei Lanfang was taken aback.

hurriedly said:

"Now?"

"Yeah...uh..."

After realizing where he was, his brows frowned again.

After pondering for a while, he said to Xu Xin:

"You're trying to refine this idea... Who, Xiao Shen, go find paper, big paper. Xiao Xu, follow Xiao Shen and draw this concept map. When we're done here, let's go back to the meeting!"

"no problem."

Xu Xin nodded and was about to leave when he slapped him on the shoulder.

In the sight of everyone, the top person in charge of the crew, the internationally renowned director Zhang Yimou slapped the young man on the shoulder twice, with eyes full of excitement and joy:

"Good job! Good boy!"

"Director Zhang, it hurts~"

"Hahaha, hurry up, draw the concept picture better, you give the concept, go back to discuss and discuss, if there is no problem... let Guoqiang make it, let's take a look."

"Um!"

Xu Xin responded, and walked out quickly with Assistant Shen who came over.

Everyone is guessing what happened.

It will cause such a change in the expression of the director who always likes to frown on weekdays.

Among them, the one who watched Xu Xin leave for the longest time was Gong Li.

As a former pillow, no one knows Zhang Yimou's habits better than her.

He is frowning just thinking, and when he is in a happy mood, he likes to dance with his hands and feet, but the few shots of the young man just now... In her impression, it was the kind of very rare intimacy...

This young man...

What is the origin?

Gong Li narrowed her eyes slightly, thinking quietly.

Unknowingly, his brows frowned.

But she wasn't the only one frowning on and off the court, another person also frowned.

Standing in the corner of the main hall, sitting in the line of crew members, the chubby girl frowned.

Director Zhang Yimou and that boy...are they so close?

Recalling the unhappiness in the morning, she subconsciously looked at Jay Chou who was being taught by Cheng Xiaodong, and her heart suddenly began to beat faster.

this…

It seems that I can't hide it.

by the cup...

It's miserable.

"Director Wang...do you need something from me?"

There were five Wia games in total. Yang Mi, who didn't cry out bitterness or humiliation, just took off the hook lock and the protective pad, and walked up to Wang Haihu anxiously without even changing her clothes.

She has thought it all over.

If this **** dares to do something, she will run away.

It's a big deal that I won't be acting in this drama anymore. I'll just go back to school and stay for a few years until I graduate... I'm not going to be a big star anymore, I'm just going to polish my acting skills!

While I was feeling anxious here, suddenly I saw Wang Zhu's smile became more gentle:

"Yang Mi, do you have a friend named Xu?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Mi was stunned.

Nodding subconsciously:

"Well, yes."

"Is he here too?"

"Well…"

Suddenly, Yang Mi sensed something was wrong.

How did the other party know?

No reason to know.

Could it be...

After thinking about it, she tentatively asked:

"Wang Zhu, do you know him?"

"I met you just now, he came to see you."

"Huh?...oh, oh~~~~"

In an instant, the reason why Wang Haihu cared for him in his attitude, and the slightly contrasting attitude, was caught by the girl.

Just turning her mind slightly, she suddenly showed a little shyness:

"Annoying, I told you not to come..."

These words were mumbled, but matched with that shy look and coquettish tone.

For others, maybe she didn't say so.

But others will definitely think wrong.

Sure enough...

Wang Haihu seemed to confirm the guess in his heart, but he heard Yang Mi say:

"He must have skipped director Zhang's shift, right? ... That's how it is, Director Wang, we... well, we're friends. I'm in our crew, and he's in the director's team of "Golden Armor". I They all told him not to come...Well, Director Wang, don't worry, I will definitely not go to him, and I will not delay work, he will not come again, I will tell him when I go back today that I will not let him when I am working Come to me, I'm sorry...to trouble you."

Seeing the girl's embarrassed look, Wang Haihu quickly waved his hands:

"It's not. It's like this. He came when you were in the last scene. Our security guards came to inform me when they heard that it was Director Zhang's crew. We didn't say a few words. At that time, he was on the phone. It seemed that Director Zhang knew that he was skipping work and told him to go back. He left a sentence in a hurry, saying that you should hurry over after filming... He said he wanted to introduce you and Director Zhang I know... Did you also participate in the audition for "Golden Armor"..."

“…audition?”

Yang Mi was taken aback again.

But after going through Wang Haihu's words in her mind, she instantly understood something.

Then a look of helplessness appeared on his face:

"No...he's talking nonsense...don't listen to his nonsense, there's nothing wrong with it. I'll finish the show steadily in our crew, don't worry. He's just talking nonsense...how can I say I know a director as big as Director Zhang? I just knew each other. Nothing..."

"Ha ha."

Seeing her reaction, Wang Haihu laughed instead.

This is too pretentious.

We are not a traditional quyi shop, not like Bansiban.

Isn't it normal for an actor to reasonably arrange the time for his role to enter the group and the shooting process?

Still young after all...

I don't know who is standing behind to get this opportunity.

He suppressed all his thoughts in his heart, and waved his hands with a gentle breeze on his face:

"Hey, what's the matter. I asked the screenwriter just now, after today's scene, isn't the rest of the scenes just trivial?"

"No no no."

Yang Mi quickly shook her head:

"Then you have to take a good shot."

Eyes full of sincerity.

"...haha, really dedicated. Let's go..."

His face is full of expressions that can be seen through but not explained:

"Anyway, I brought it to you, and they told you to go there quickly, so you can just go... Shall I let the car take you?"

"Don't, Director Wang, you're welcome..."

Yang Mi shook her head quickly, looking rather flattered.

But the figure is more humble:

"The crew's car is too tight, I can go there by myself... Thank you, Director Wang, for your trouble. My friend has caused you trouble~"

"It's okay, anyway, the two sides are not far away, I'll let the car take you..."

"It's really unnecessary..."

"It's okay, Xu Tao, you send her to Daming Palace, send her to the place, did you hear?"

Not giving Yang Mi a chance to refuse, he nodded:

"You've worked hard today, take a good rest tomorrow. Let's go."

"...then... sorry for the trouble, Director Wang, thank you."

"Well, it's okay."

Wang Haihu waved his hand, while Yang Mi looked at the driver waiting aside and bowed politely:

"Brother Xu, please wait for me, I'll go get the bag."

"good."

Xu Tao responded, glanced at Wang Haihu again, and said:

"Then I'll wait for you outside."

Soon, the girl changed her clothes, removed her hair, walked out of the set with a luggage bag, and saw Xu Tao waving to her.

It is normal for the actors to come in and out after filming. In addition, the conversation between her and Wang Haihu was not very dynamic, and no one paid attention. After coming out all the way, he drove to the Daming Palace in a commercial vehicle.

In the car, Yang Mi saw Xu Xin's text messages. Apart from several greeting text messages, the most important one was the one just sent:

"I met a man named Wang Haihu. I said I wanted to introduce you to Director Zhang. He was very polite to me. Think about what to say, don't let it slip. Then call me Telephone."

Seeing this message, a smile appeared in the girl's eyes.

Sure enough, what I understood was correct.

At the beginning, she felt very strange when she heard Director Wang chatting.

Sure enough, I guessed right.

Wang Zhu's attitude changed too quickly, there must be something wrong with it.

Regardless of the twists and turns in it, it must be inseparable from the fame and energy of director Zhang Yimou or "The Golden Armor".

Although I just saw this message...

Can…

Through everything that happened just now in her mind, and after making sure that she didn't misunderstand what Xu Xin meant, and that there was nothing wrong, she quietly let out a long sigh of relief.

Immediately afterwards, a wordless worry emerged from his heart.

Even though he wasn't asked to do this...he was offering to help himself.

If Director Zhang finds out...wouldn't be angry?

But logically speaking, the two crews should not have any contact.

It's not that she looks down on "The Condor", but because... Indeed, in the pyramid of the film and television industry, film directors are always the top group of people.

Among the top group of people, director Zhang Yimou is undoubtedly the top group!

Compared with Zhang Dao, let alone Yu Dao...even the bearded Zhang Jizhong can't compare.

Fortunately, I realized it, and used a vague concept to hide it from Wang Zhu.

"Hoo..."

She let out another long breath of relief.

Then, after seeing the palace through the car window, he glanced at the driver and quickly took out the phone.

"Doo beep... hello?"

Xu Xin, who was holding a pen and drawing a concept map on a table, saw that it was Yang Mi, and connected the phone.

The first sentence is:

"you arrived?"

"…Um."

I don't know why, but hearing this voice, the girl's nose is a little sour.

Hold back quickly, and responded:

"arrive."

After finishing speaking, she suddenly paused before saying:

"Director Wang sent me a car, where can I find you?"

"Director Wang?...I'll go out to pick you up, you wait for me at the door, hang up."

As he spoke, Xu Xin had a flash of understanding, stood up and walked towards Assistant Shen.

And Assistant Shen, who was ordered by Director Zhang just now, saw this and asked:

"Teacher Xu, what's the matter?"

Hearing this, Xu Xin nodded, and suddenly said:

"Shen Zhu, please do me a favor..."

"Brother Xu, you..."

"I'll take a break."

The driver smiled heartily:

"I spent a whole day in the sun over there without turning on the air conditioner. I finally managed to burn oil. I'm being lazy and I'll be back in half an hour. Don't tell Director Wang."

"Yeah, okay. Then I go to the door first?"

"Go."

Getting out of the car, with the burning feeling in her lower back, Yang Mi's eyes were filled with the emotion of "as expected".

But at the same time, there is a kind of uneasy expectation in my heart.

Now that we have a tacit understanding...

Then... he should also understand, right?

Know what I mean.

After walking three or five steps, the commercial vehicle with the air conditioner on but the windows open was leaning against it.

Yang Mi was a little uneasy.

After waiting for a while, suddenly, she saw a figure.

Xu Xin?

first reaction.

The second reaction, suddenly, her face became a little stiff.

Not Xu Xin...

this…

Probably not looking for myself.

Um.

Xu Xin must be able to hear what I mean.

She firmly believed.

At this time, Assistant Shen who came out of the palace saw a flash of understanding after seeing the girl.

Then he trotted a few steps suddenly, and asked politely:

"Hello, are you Miss Yang Mi Yang?"

Yang Mi's heart skipped a beat.

But before he had time to react, he suddenly heard a sentence from the other party:

"Hello, Ms. Yang, I'm director Zhang Yimou's assistant, my surname is Shen. Teacher Xu Xin asked me to come out to pick you up. He's talking with Director Zhang."

Don't talk about Yang Mi.

Even Xu Tao, who had been pricking up his ears, had a layer of surprise in his eyes.

Director Zhang's assistant?

Then, he watched helplessly as the two entered the palace gate.

Get out of the car and light a cigarette.

After taking a few breaths, he took a tentative look into the palace gate.

People have disappeared.

Stubbing out the half-burned cigarette, he drove away.
