I'm the director, I'm not bad

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

Or footprints.

Yes.

Why didn't you think of it before?

Going a long way, in the ancient Olympic Games created by Greece, the only sport in the first session was running.

Run around a field of less than 200 meters.

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

On a bigger scale, didn't the entire modern Olympic Games come here 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.

footprint……

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 wrong?"

"Sister Wei, quickly, help me find Director Zhang!"

"……what?"

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

Because Xu Xin's voice sounded urgent.

He walked quickly to Zhang Yimou who was looking at the camera and frowning:
"Director, Xiao Xu is looking for you."

"Xiao Xu?..."

Zhang Yimou looked around subconsciously.

Wasn't he still there just now?

Why are people gone now?
After answering the phone, he waved his hand at the leading actors sitting on the chairs opposite the camera, indicating to take 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 with some puzzlement, 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?
Is it to borrow props?

Shouldn't it be...

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 for a moment.

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, and the camera can also be the director... Even as the director's assistant, he is called the assistant director.

Ah!
Must be.

Then, he came within five steps of Xu Xin.

I 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...

Who else in this circle has that name?
Could it be that Zhang Yimou is really on the other end of the phone?
No...not possible, 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 one step at a time...I think it would be very good to express it with footprints!...Um, I'm on the crew of "Sculpture of God"...Okay, okay, I'll go back now. It just so happens that I have a rough idea, and I need to tell you about it... Okay, up to 10 minutes!... Mmmm."

After hanging up the phone, 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."

"..."

The corner of Wang Haihu's mouth twitched...

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

"Hello, hello, I'm Wang Haihu, 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:
"Correct."

With that said, he shook hands with the other party, and continued to say politely:
"Before we said we met, 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... Director Wang, 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?”

"It's 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 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...Okay, okay, goodbye, Director Xu."

"Well, bye."

Watching the young man leave, Wang Haihu frowned subconsciously.

The other party looked 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 or non-belief, it is about six or 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.

Can Zhou Renfa, Gong Li...not to mention Jay Chou and others, can have a positive face in the movie 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...

He turned his head and walked towards the set.

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, her lips were pursed, and 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 who got it complained.

After thinking for a while, he 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.

And it may be hard for outsiders to believe that there are eight assistants in the crew this time, just under 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 lot of 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 didn't have much communication with this Wang Zhu, and he couldn't afford to communicate with a young actor like myself... He suddenly brought him a bottle of water today?

Yang Mi's heart skipped a beat...

An ominous premonition rose.

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 fine."

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

"Are you tightening it 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.

When he was 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. Seeing that your face is pale...is it a strangled pain?"

"No no no...it's all right."

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

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

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

This... what is this for!
Upon hearing this, Wang Haihu nodded:

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

Now, the prop masters understood Wang Zhu's words.

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 bit worn."

"Ok."

In a word, the 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... ok... thank you, Director Wang, for your concern..."

"Ah."

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.

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

Is it 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.

To put it bluntly, other people take care of you, and I dare not say that the other party is grateful to me, but at least the good relationship can be formed.

In the future, it is impossible to tell if someone becomes a wrist, right?
Then it's easy to talk.

Just a little effort.

It would be even better if she got to know Zhang Yimou or became a master, but if she didn't, she wouldn't 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."

"Ah."

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 walked all the way into the palace, and after finding the busy production crew according to the route he left, Wei Lanfang quickly walked over:
"Why did you suddenly come back?"

"I thought of an idea..."

Xu Xin raised the notebook in his hand:
"Talk to the director."

"……All right."

Wei Lanfang nodded, and pointed to the inside of the palace:

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

"it is good."

Xu Xin stepped into the hall one step at a time, and immediately 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 when he saw Xu Xin, he nodded:
"What's going on? Tell me."

"Look at this."

Xu Xin took his notebook and flipped through a few pages, revealing a sketch.

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

The drawing is very sloppy.

But this is not the point.

The point is those 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 which, 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, and the moment Zhang Yimou heard this, the sketch in front of him turned into a dark sky constructed in his mind.

The golden footprints stepped on the sky, step by step, they arrived at 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...

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

"Fireworks!"

"Snapped!"

His hand was directly tapped on Xu Xin's notebook, and his voice suddenly became louder:
"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, making gestures, 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!"

"……what???"

Wei Lanfang was dumbfounded.

said quickly:

"Now?"

"Yeah...uh..."

After realizing where he was, his brows frowned again.

"..."

After pondering for a while, he said to Xu Xin:
"You are refining this idea... Who, Xiao Shen, go find paper, big paper. Xiao Xu, follow Xiao Shen and draw this concept map. When we are 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 everyone's line of sight, 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 and make a better conceptual picture. You give the concept and go back to discuss it. If there is no problem...Let Guoqiang make it and let's take a look."

"Ok!"

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

It's anyone's guess what happened.

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

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

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

He frowned just thinking, and when he was in a happy mood, he liked to dance with his hands and feet, and the few shots he took of the young man just now... In her impression, it was the kind of very rare intimate gesture...

This young man...

What's the way?
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...

Miserable.

……

"Director Wang...do you have something to do with me?"

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

She has thought it all over.

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

The big deal is that I won’t be acting in this drama anymore. I will honestly go back to school for a few years until I graduate... I won’t be a big star anymore, I’ll just polish my acting skills!
And here I was feeling uneasy, when 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.

Subconsciously nodded:
"Well, yes."

"Is he here too?"

"Uh……"

Suddenly, Yang Mi sensed something was wrong.

How did the other party know?
No reason to know.

Is it...

After thinking about it, she tentatively asked:

"Wang Zhu, do you know him?"

"I just saw him. He came to see you."

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

In an instant, the reason why Wang Haihu cared about him, and why the attitude was slightly different, was caught by the girl.

With just a slight turn of her mind, she suddenly showed a bit of shyness:

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

The 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.

really……

Wang Haihu seemed to confirm the guess in his heart, but he heard Yang Mi say:
"He must have skipped director Zhang's shift? ... 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 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 when I am working Don't let him 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 seems that Director Zhang knew that he was absent from work and told him to go back. He left a word in a hurry, saying that you should hurry over after filming... He said he wanted to introduce you and Zhang The director knows... Did you also participate in the audition for "Golden Armor"..."

"...an audition?"

Yang Mi was taken aback again.

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

Then there was another look of helplessness on his face:
"No...he's talking nonsense...don't listen to his nonsense, it's nothing. I'll just finish the show in our crew, don't worry. He's just talking nonsense...how can a director as big as Director Zhang be? If I say I know you, then I know you. Nothing..."

"Haha."

Seeing her reaction, Wang Haihu laughed instead.

This is too self-explanatory.

Ours is not a traditional quyi shop, not like Ban Siban.

Isn't it normal for actors to reasonably arrange the time for their roles 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. Okay..."

His face is full of looks that can be seen through but can't be said:

"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 there?"

"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 the Daming Palace, send her to the place, did you hear?"

Instead of giving Yang Mi a chance to refuse, he nodded:
"I've worked hard today, and I'll have a good rest tomorrow. Let's go."

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

"Well, it's fine."

Wang Haihu waved his hands, while Yang Mi looked at the driver waiting aside and bowed politely:
"Brother Xu, please wait for me, I'll go get the bag."

"it is good."

Xu Tao responded, looked 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's normal for the actors to come in and out after filming. In addition, the conversation between her and Wang Haihu was quiet and no one noticed.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, when she heard Director Wang chatting, she felt very strange.

Sure enough, I guessed well.

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

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

Although I just saw this message...

Can……

After going through everything just now in her mind, and 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.

He obviously didn't ask him to do this...but he was taking the initiative to help himself.

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

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

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

And 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 came to my senses and used a vague concept to hide it from Wang Zhu.

"call……"

She took another long breath of relief.

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

"Beep beep... hello?"

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

The first sentence is:

"you arrived?"

"……Um."

For some reason, hearing this voice, the girl's nose felt a little sore.

Hurry up and hold back, and replied:
"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 and hang up."

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

Assistant Shen, who was instructed by Director Zhang just now, asked after seeing this:
"Teacher Xu, what's the matter?"

"..."

Hearing this, Xu Xin nodded and said suddenly:
"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. I'll be back in half an hour. Don't tell Director Wang."

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

"Go."

After getting out of the car, with the burning feeling in her lower back, Yang Mi's eyes were filled with the emotion of "it really is".

But at the same time, there was a kind of anxious expectation in my heart.

Now that we have a tacit agreement...

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……

Shouldn't be looking for yourself.

Ok.

Xu Xin must be able to hear what I mean.

She firmly believed.

At this moment, Assistant Shen who came out of the palace saw a flash of understanding in his eyes after seeing the girl.

Then he trotted a few steps suddenly, and asked politely:
"Hello, are you Miss Yang Miyang?"

"..."

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.

After stubbing out the half-burnt cigarette, he drove away.
