I'm a Director, I'm Not Bad Chapter 93

  Chapter 93 091. Mom, the money has been collected

  After Xu Xin took his seat, no one spoke.

   And he also seemed to be full of uneasiness, quite a bit at a loss.

   At this moment, Gong Li spoke:

   "Xiao Xu, how was the filming this morning?"

"Well…"

  Xu Xin looked stunned for a moment, then nodded belatedly:

   "It's pretty smooth. In the afternoon, it's Fa Ge's play, Fa Ge and Teacher Ni Dahong's, there must be no problem."

   "That is to say, the crew is progressing very fast now, right?"

  Gong Li asked again.

  A hint of hesitation appeared on Xu Xin's face.

  It seems that I don't know what to say.

   Looking at Zhang Yimou as if asking for help, Zhang Yimou didn't look at him at all.

  He looked at Jiang Zhiqiang again...

  Jiang Zhiqiang actually wanted him to leave a long time ago.

   But he didn't dare either.

   It wasn't that he was afraid of Xu Xin, but that he was afraid of Zhang Wu.

   Isn't this young man related to Zhang Wu...

   Even Zhang Weiping had to smile when he saw Zhang Wu, who would dare to offend him?

  So he didn't say anything.

  In the end it was Gong Li who continued to ask:

   "Say it."

"Well…"

  Xu Xin hesitated again, and then showed a stubborn look:

   "It's... not bad... it's not too fast..."

  He seemed to have found something and wanted to "fish" back.

   But Gong Li smiled:

   "Haha, it's not too fast? Okay, then tell me, after the filming of Zhou Renfa and Ni Dahong's scenes is over, and the scenes between me and Chen Jin, Liu Ye and Chen Jin, Zhou Renfa and Chen Jin are all over, what else is there?"

"Well…"

   Now, Xu Xin seemed to be stumped.

  But Gong Li suddenly stopped embarrassing him, but looked at Zhang Yimou:

"Yimou, you know Chen Jin's scenes. We are right, there is no problem at all. Liu Ye is in such a good state, there is no problem, and Zhou Renfa is also fine... Tonight, I can shoot all these scenes Done, do you believe it?"

   "Ms. Gong... just now there is something wrong with the lighting, and I may not be able to shoot this afternoon..."

  This excuse is purely to fool fools.

   I don't say I'm a fool, but no normal person would believe this.

  So, Gong Li ignored Xu Xin at all, and continued:

   "I just want to know when Jiang Chan's play will start, and whether she can start... I wonder..."

  She put her arms around her arms, her face full of doubts.

  No anger, no pride.

   Just wondering:

   "Am I really old and eliminated by this circle... Now I have been reduced to the point where I have to wait for a newcomer who hasn't entered the industry yet. Not only me, Jay Lun also has to wait, Zhou Renfa has to wait... Hehe..."

  She laughed in a low voice:

"If you want me to say, what is the international actor and actress, the singer Xiaotianwang...Compared with her, we are nothing. This circle is changing too fast, you can see it by looking at the outside media. Now Who cares who Gong Li, Zhang Yimou, Zhou Renfa, Liu Dehua are... Aren't they all going to be young and beautiful? Those big companies also like to sign young actors, and they pour resources... They don't care if they can win or not. Let's spend a lot of resources first and talk about other things... Hey, don't you think they're not afraid of losing money?”

  She seemed to be asking questions, and even her eyes were focused on Zhang Yimou.

   But in fact, everyone in this room is very clear in their hearts.

   These words were not addressed to Zhang Yimou, but to Jiang Zhiqiang...or Zhang Weiping.

   First of all, the leading actors of this play were tied together.

   It's not "I—Gong Li" waiting.

   Although the role of Jiang Chan is a supporting role, she is consistent throughout. She has roles with the emperor, with the crown prince, and with Prince Yuanjie... It seems that she is just a "medicine feeding" role, but it is still necessary.

   If there is less, this scene cannot be filmed.

  Therefore, there is nothing wrong with saying that everyone is waiting for her.

   Then there is the word "media".

   These words have two meanings.

  On the one hand, if the media finds out about this incident, then according to the habits of these entertainment reporters, news about a "newcomer actor playing big names" must be indispensable.

  The protagonists may feel nothing.

  How about fans?

   What about movie fans?

  Not to mention anything else, just talking about Jay Chou's fanatic fans, hearing that my brother is waiting for a new actor...

  Are you kidding me?

  Why should my brother be wronged like this?

  My brother has worked so hard, but you still make him feel wronged.

   Are you bullying?

  If this is the case, will the box office be affected?

   Regardless of whether there is news enthusiasm or not, some Jay Chou fans are disgusted, is it for sure?

  And the second meaning: a newcomer actor, the reason why you don't change now is that Zhang Weiping got benefits from several companies? Everyone is aiming at the position of "Mou Girl", so those companies are willing to spend resources to fight for it.

it's good now.

   Let's fight.

  As soon as the news came out, this actor was playing a big role... I don't believe that she offended the fans of me, Zhou Renfa, Jay Chou, Liu Ye, etc., and her career as a prostitute can be so smooth.

   And when the time comes, these scramble for the resources poured out of her company...

   Then wait to see the joke.

   Now that the dust has settled, some resources can be recovered.

   But once the contract is signed, it will be hard to recover, and it will be difficult to get it back.

  Let the big company that signed this actress suffer this loss...

   You Zhang Weiping has a lot of money, right?

   Who in this circle doesn't know that you can get up because of Zhang Yimou?

  Before "Hero", Zhang Yimou's films were all well-received but not well-received. They were recognized as literary and artistic, but the box office was mediocre.

  If there is no hero, the hundreds of millions of box office around the world will give you back blood, can you get up?

   Don't be ridiculous.

  In this circle, don't look at the "two Zhang" reputation here, but in fact, the three melons and two dates in your Zhang Weiping's pocket are really enough for those big companies?

  So, after saying this, in fact...

   Today's affairs are already qualitative.

  Xu Xin discovered at this time... It turns out that this sister has already grasped Zhang Weiping's lifeline.

  Originally, he thought that the other party would threaten him with a so-called "strike".

   After all, the friendship between Zhang Yimou and her is here for so many years, and according to Sister Wei's news, this queen is the promise she made with him...

   To put it bluntly, he thought Gong Li would be moved with affection.

result…

  Not only did this elder sister not play a trick, but she pulled out an RPG from behind.

  Who the **** is playing with you to keep the melon sweet or not?

  Come here today, just to put a gun on your forehead and force you to kneel down and call grandpa.

   Good guy...

  It seems that I think it's complicated...

   As expected, Jiang Zhiqiang's face became a little stiff.

  After thinking for a while, he suddenly looked at Xu Xin:

   "Xiao Xu, it's okay, you can go out first."

   "Uh... oh, ok, then I'll go out first."

  Xu Xin seemed to run extremely fast.

  It seemed that he was afraid of causing any trouble.

   As soon as he left, Jiang Zhiqiang's eyes fell on Zhang Yimou.

   "Yimou... this... I just came here, and I don't know much about the shooting plan..."

   Now, Zhang Yimou is dissatisfied.

   What does this mean?

   Meaning let yourself say it?

   What else could he say?

  There are so many people in the crew here, and everyone is working hard, why do you ask me to do it?

   "You don't need to tell Yimou."

   At this time, Gong Li still stood up:

   "As I said, I'm going to finish all the trivial scenes tonight. It's a big deal... the big guys work overtime."

  Under Jiang Zhiqiang's silence, she directly shifted the conflict to herself:

"I want to know now, where is the actor of Jiang Chan, and why I haven't seen her for so many days. Also, I want to see what she wants to do? Can this scene be filmed? If not, I will I went to "Miami Vice" to make up shots. I still have a contract with them. I finished filming last year and missed a few shots. I have to wait until summer. They have urged me many times... There is no reason why I can't go, right? If a supporting role makes us wait, then I should also let the big guy wait for me for a few months?...Moreover, I have a "Young Hannibal" movie that will start soon."

  Hearing this, Jiang Zhiqiang was even more speechless.

  Miami? Waiting for summer? Who doesn't know it's summer in Miami every day?

   "Change."

  Under Jiang Zhiqiang's increasingly stiff face, Zhang Yimou suddenly spoke.

   "Yimou!!"

"Zhiqiang, you tell Weiping that you really can't afford to delay. After the filming of "Golden Armor", I have to be busy with the Olympics. Gong Li also has a contract, Jay Chou still has a concert, and Zhou Renfa has a movie with him." Siqin Gaowa and Zhao Xiaowei's movie is also waiting. We can't delay everyone's progress because of us..."

  His tone gradually became firm:

"I'll choose the role myself this time. I have a few suitable candidates in my mind. The news about the role of Li Man itself outside the crew is inexplicable. This time I will choose it by myself. The filming will be finished quickly, and I will be busy with the Olympics. So... you tell Weiping, this time, don't bring so much unnecessary heat to the crew. Li Man didn't fulfill the contract as promised, let's cooperate again next time."

  In Gong Li's calm gaze, he looked at her:

   "Play well, progress faster, understand?"

"rest assured."

  She nodded, her brows and eyes full of confidence:

   "When did I delay your business?"

   "Well. That's it."

  Zhang Yimou waved his hand, put on his peaked cap, and walked out.

  Jiang Zhiqiang was left with a very stiff face.

  As soon as he went out, he saw Xu Xin standing in the shade by the door.

   "Director Zhang."

   "Well, let's go and shoot."

  Zhang Yimou nodded.

   Then he took a few steps forward and said:

   "Yang Mi... Let her inform her agent to come to Hengdian. First of all, she must keep it absolutely confidential. Whether it is negotiating with the crew of "Sculpture of God" or something, I don't want to hear any rumors outside."

  Xu Xin subconsciously revealed a look of joy.

  Did Zhang Yimou see it?

   Naturally saw it.

  If it was someone else, he might not care.

  Because he is used to the kind of joy that some people can participate in his movies.

   But the young man in front of him is different after all.

   is a young man he admires very much.

  So he shook his head:

   "Xiao Xu."

"…ah?"

   "You have to remember one thing."

   "Director Zhang, tell me."

   "In this circle, it's best never to let others know your true thoughts."

"Well…"

  The joy on Xu Xin's face stagnated instantly.

   I saw the big director in front of me speak earnestly and looked at him seriously:

   "At the same time, don't let others know what your cards are. Remember?"

  Xu Xin was silent for a moment, thoughtful.

   Is it for yourself? Or did he teach himself because of Gong Li's fatal reason?

  Looking at Zhang Yimou who was looking seriously in front of him, he nodded:

"remember."

"Um."

   "The queen... is talking to the slaves?... Not very good."

  In the mirror of the hotel room, Yang Mi subconsciously shook her head.

   Picked up the script and looked at it...

  Jiang Chan must be dissatisfied with the queen...

   No, it should not be dissatisfaction.

  She still doesn't know about the eldest prince and queen.

   That should be...

   A look at someone dying?

   Not right.

   Belittle?

  Yes, it should be contempt.

   But still can't show that kind of contempt.

  Her gestures are respectful, but her expression cannot be respectful, because she has already determined in her heart that the queen is already a dead person.

   And she watched the queen drink the poison.

  So...should be a slight.

  Faced with the Queen's attitude towards servants, she must first be patient, and second, she must be dissatisfied. Only in her dissatisfaction can she reveal the attitude of "I am watching you joke"...

Um!

   It should look like this!

  Thinking of this, she knelt down again, holding a menu for each room in the hotel with both hands.

  Just as she was about to speak, a man came out of the bathroom and passed by her.

   After seeing Yang Mi kneeling, the girl said:

   "Still thinking about characters?"

"…Um."

  Although she felt uncomfortable when she was interrupted, Yang Mi still nodded:

   "Sister Xin, are you leaving?"

   This girl is called Yang Xin, who plays Lu Wushuang in the play.

  The two are roommates.

   And just this morning, her play officially finished.

  Yang Xin nodded:

"Yes."

   As she spoke, she packed all the cosmetics into the suitcase, and after zipping it up, she looked at Yang Mi and asked curiously:

   "Which show are you auditioning for? What are you acting in? Playing a maid?"

"right."

  Yang Mi nodded:

   "I don't know what kind of play it is, but the role sent to me by the company is to play a maidservant, and there are only a few lines in it."

   "Tsk tsk... okay. Then I'll go first~"

"Um!"

  Yang Mi had a three-point friendly, three-point smile on her face, and opened her hands.

   "Sister Xin, come on, I will count on you when I become a character in the future!"

   "Hmm~"

  Although he accepted the hug, Yang Xin didn't give any substantive answer to this sentence.

   He just patted Yang Mi on the back very kindly:

   "Come on audition."

   "Hmm~"

  Yang Mi waved her hand and stood at the door to bid farewell to Yang Xin who was pulling the luggage. After leaving, she went back to the room and closed the door.

  She has no sadness of parting.

  Because Yang Xin has a lot of things to do and sleeps lightly. In the first few days of living here, relying on the fact that she played many supporting roles, she also asked her to make less noise when flushing the toilet...

   You are looking for the toilet, what can you say to me?

  How can I control the water volume of the toilet?

  But because the two share a room, everything has to be compromised.

  Now finally he is gone...

Um!

   Let's take a shower first!

   Have to open the bathroom door!

   hum...

  With a somewhat cheerful mood, she just planned to order room service to clean up the trash bin shared by the two of them... It's so annoying, can't the toilet paper be flushed directly into the toilet after going to the toilet? What trash can?

  I didn't allow the ventilation fan in the bathroom to be turned on at night, which caused a bad smell when I went to the bathroom the next morning...

   Dirty to death.

  But as soon as the landline was picked up, the phone rang suddenly.

   Seeing that it was Xu Xin calling, she connected with a smile:

   "Hi! Half-step Bengquan!"

  The corner of Xu Xin's mouth on the other end of the phone twitched.

   Is this girl addicted?

"Where are you?"

   "What about the hotel?"

   "Well, get ready tonight. You try a mirror and show Director Zhang the status. Then inform your agent. In the case of absolute confidentiality, you can't tell anyone. Come quietly to Hengdian and prepare to sign a contract."

  Suddenly, Yang Mi felt a noise in her ears.

  She had tinnitus.

   "What... what?"

  She stared straight at her arm.

  The layer of fine fluff on the arm straightened at a speed visible to the naked eye.

   Along with it, there is also a layer of goosebumps...

   "You... what did you say!?"

   "I said, the role of Jiang Chan is yours. Do an audition tonight, and then ask your agent to come to Hengdian in a confidential state."

  The chirping sound became louder and louder.

   "I...I...uh..."

   "Take a deep breath and calm down."

  Listening to the stuttering voice on the phone, Xu Xin began to guide her emotions.

   Sure enough, there was a panting voice on the phone.

   Panted a few times, when Yang Mi spoke again, she suddenly found that her voice was hoarse:

   "Did you really choose me?!"

"Um."

  Hearing her hoarse voice, which seemed particularly textured, Xu Xin responded:

"deal."

  There was an instant silence on the phone.

  Xu Xin didn't rush either.

   Instead, he lit a cigarette.

   After taking two sips, he asked:

   "What are you thinking?"

"I have no idea…"

   "Don't think too much...poof..."

   Breathing out a puff of smoke, he looked at Gong Li who got out of the car and walked into the makeup tent, and said unhurriedly:

   "Since the character is yours, what you have to do is to take her down completely. You don't have to worry about the relationship between the crew and the like. I'm here, and I'll help you deal with it."

"you…"

  On the other end of the phone, after hearing this, the stiff girl subconsciously wanted to ask a question...

   The words came to my lips, but I didn't know how to speak.

   But I still feel uncomfortable if I don't ask.

  After thinking about it, he finally asked:

   "How much... did you do?"

   "What does it mean how much I've done?"

  Xu Xin's tone was calm:

   "It's just a few words... The story behind Jiang Chan's character is too complicated, and you won't understand it. I didn't play any role... Okay, get ready, see you tonight. I'll hang up."

"etc!"

"…What's the matter?"

  Yang Mi fell silent again.

   After a few seconds, she suddenly asked:

   "If I say thank you, won't it seem...a bit of a use of you?"

   "No, isn't it right for you to thank me?"

  Xu Xin chuckled lightly:

   "At any rate, I also contributed, okay? Come on, say thank you and make me happy~"

  The relaxed words didn't dampen any turbulence in the girl's heart, on the contrary, it became more and more turbulent.

  However, no matter how turbulent the heart was, in the end, it just turned into a cry on the lips:

"Thanks!"

   "Well, then prepare well, remember, you must keep your agent a secret, you know?"

"I know!"

   "Well, hang up."

"…good."

  The phone hangs up.

  Yang Mi's eyes are fixed on the phone...

   Until the screen dims.

   Nobody knew what she was thinking.

  It's just... the holes in her eyes gradually began to collapse.

   After it disappeared completely, her eyes glowed again, and she quickly dialed the manager's phone number:

   "Hey, Sister Zeng, is it convenient for you to talk now?... Now you find a place where no one is around. I have something to tell you... Yes, it's very important..."

  7:30 p.m.

  Olympic creative team meeting tent.

  Xu Xin looked at the time, and suddenly said to Zhang Yimou who was thinking:

   "Director, I... have to ask for leave."

"Uh-huh."

  Hearing this, Zhang Yimou nodded:

"Go ahead."

   "Xiao Xu~~~"

  Suddenly, Wei Lanfang stopped him:

   "Why are you going?"

   I don't know why, Xu Xin suddenly felt that this sister's nose is not a nose, and her eyes are not eyes... Why is she smiling so strangely?

   But he still shook his head and explained:

   "I have to go back to the city, I have something to do."

   "Oh~ let's go~"

   Wei Lanfang smiled strangely.

   Xu Xin was a little puzzled, but he didn't delay, and after saying hello to everyone, he walked out quickly.

   "Xu Xin, why are you going?"

   Just as I went out, I saw Jay Chou who had finished his make-up.

   "Go out to do something, let's go first."

"Oh well."

   Jay Chou waved at him.

   It is useless to be sent by others.

   After leaving the Daming Palace, I found those black car drivers.

  Old rules, one hundred and fifty.

   It was the same driver who was waiting for work that day.

   Who knew that after getting off at the hotel, the driver said:

   "Just give me fifty. Call me directly if you have work in the future, and I will be there on call."

"Um."

  Xu Xin smiled and agreed, got out of the car, and it was completely dark.

  He didn't go directly into the hotel, but walked east along the road, looking for the store he saw during the day. Not long after I walked in, I came out with two large black plastic bags.

  After he came out, he didn't go back to the hotel, but came to a crossroads.

   Right now, the streets are full of traffic.

  He didn't leave either. He saw a tobacco and alcohol seller next to him and walked in directly.

   I took a bag of Zhonghua, a bottle of water, and when I came out, I also took a bench from someone's house.

   Just sat on the chair and lit a cigarette.

  The familiar soft taste, as well as the comfortable evening breeze, made him unconsciously puff out a long stream of smoke.

  He took out his mobile phone and directly dialed Xu Miao's number.

   "Doo, hello?"

   "Brother, where are you?"

   "The money is stacked at home. You don't need to worry about it, leave it to me here."

   "Okay, where's our dad?"

   "Drunk, sleeping."

   "Hmm...then I'm dead."

"Um."

  Xu Miao's words completely reassured Xu Xin.

  In the next time, he sat on the ponytail, watching the busy traffic in the street and continued to be in a daze.

   Waited for about an hour or so.

  Finally, at the crossroads, he saw several people also coming here, carrying a plastic bag in their hands.

about there.

Xu Xin stood up, put the little horse back into the house, walked to the tree by the side of the road, broke a branch directly without public morals, broke the branch, and turned it into a tree. stick.

  Carrying a stick, two plastic bags went to the intersection, ignoring a few pedestrians and passing vehicles. After identifying the east, west, north and south, he took the stick and drew a non-existent circle in front of him.

  The hole in the circle is facing the northwest.

   Then he took out the contents of the plastic bag.

  Pile after pile of yellow paper, with red outlines of ingots drawn on the yellow paper.

  In the other bag, there were stacks of ghost notes and a large pack of folded gold ingots.

  Using a very familiar technique, he spread out the yellow papers, piled them in the circle, and took out three more from the inside.

  He took out the lighter, lit the three cards first, and then threw them on the road outside the circle.

  The three yellow papers burned quickly.

   Then, he used a lighter to start lighting the surroundings of the pile of yellow paper.

   Soon, the sporadic flames turned into a raging fire illuminating his face under the burning of the yellow paper.

   Staring at the fire in front of him, his eyes were calm and sad.

   Ignored the heavy traffic around.

  Looking at the flames in front of him, he prayed in a low voice:

   "Mom, I've collected the money~"

   I made a hyperlink to join the group, but I don't know if it's useful... It seems to be delayed by five minutes, you can take a look. If not, then add it manually, book friend group: 632623542
