I'm the director, I'm not bad

Chapter 93 091. Mom, I've Received the Money

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?"

"Uh……"

Xu Xin looked stunned for a moment, then nodded belatedly:
"It's going well. Brother Fa's show will be in the afternoon. Brother Fa and Teacher Ni Dahong's show will be fine."

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

Gong Li asked again.

On Xu Xin's face, there was a trace of hesitation.

As if he didn't know what to say.

Those looking for help usually look at Zhang Yimou, but Zhang Yimou doesn'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."

"Uh……"

Xu Xin hesitated again, and then showed a stubborn look:
"It's... not too bad... just... it's not too fast..."

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

But Gong Li smiled:

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

"Uh……"

Now, Xu Xin seemed to be stumped.

But Gong Li suddenly stopped embarrassing him, and looked at Zhang Yimou instead:
"Yimou, you know Chen Jin's play. We are right, there is no problem at all. Liu Ye is in such a good condition, there is no problem, and Zhou Renfa is also fine...Tonight, I can play all these plays. After the filming, do you believe it?"

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

This excuse is purely to fool the fool.

I don't say idiots, but no normal person would believe this.

Therefore, 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'm wondering..."

She put her arms around her arms, puzzled.

No anger, no pride.

Just wondering:

"Am I really old and eliminated by this industry... Now I have to wait for a newcomer who has not entered the industry. Not only me, but also Jay Lun and Zhou Renfa have to wait... Hehe... ..."

She chuckled in a low voice:
"Let me tell you, the international film king and actress, the singer Xiao Tianwang... 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, pouring resources... They don't care whether they can or not Take it up, first spend a lot of resources and talk about other... Hey, don't you think they are 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 the 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 role of "feeding medicine", but it still cannot be missed .

Without it, the film would not be able to continue.

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

Then there is the word "media".

This has two meanings.

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

The protagonists may feel nothing.

But what about fans?

What about fans?
Don't talk about anything else, just talk about Jay Chou's fanatical fans. Hearing that his 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, is the box office bound to be affected?

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

And the second meaning: a rookie 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 star career as a girl-hunter can be so smooth.

And when the time comes, the resources poured out by these companies competing for her...

Then wait for the joke.

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

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

Such a loss to the big company that signed the actress...

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 well received but not well received, and were recognized as literary and artistic, but the box office was mediocre.

If there is no hero, the global box office of hundreds of millions will give you back blood, can you get up?
But stop being funny.

In this circle, don't look at the reputation of "Two Zhangs", but in fact, the three melons and two dates in Zhang Weiping's pocket are really enough for those big companies?
So, after saying these words, in fact...

Today's affairs are already equal to qualitative.

It was only at this time that Xu Xin realized... It turned out that this sister had 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 that Gong Li would be moved with emotion.

result……

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

Who the hell is playing with you to keep the melon sweet or not?
Come today, it's just a gun to your forehead, forcing you to kneel down and call grandpa.

good guy...

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

Sure enough, Jiang Zhiqiang's face froze a little.

After thinking about it, he suddenly looked at Xu Xin:

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

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

Xu Xin seemed to be running really fast.

As if afraid of causing any trouble.

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

"Yimou... this... I just came here, I don't know the specifics of the shooting plan..."

"..."

Now, Zhang Yimou was dissatisfied.

What does this mean?
Do you mean to let yourself say it?

What more can he say?
There are so many people in the production team 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. The 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 ? A supporting role made us wait, so 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 it."

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

"One plot!!!!"

"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 are also waiting for the movie. 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, don't bring so much unnecessary heat to the crew about this incident. 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 directly.

Jiang Zhiqiang was left with an extremely stiff face.

And when 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 manager to come to Hengdian. First of all, keep it absolutely confidential. Whether it's 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 was different after all.

It was a boy he admired very much.

So he shook his head:

"Xiao Xu."

"……what?"

"You have to remember one thing."

"Director Zhang, tell me."

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

"Uh……"

The joy on Xu Xin's face stagnated instantly.

I saw the great director in front of me speaking earnestly and looking 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."

"Ah."

……

"The queen...is she talking to the slave?...not very good."

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

Picked up the script and read it...

Jiang Chan should be dissatisfied with the queen...

No, it shouldn't be dissatisfaction.

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

That should be...

A look at someone dying?

wrong.

contempt?

Yes, it should be underestimated.

But not yet showing that contempt.

Her movements were respectful, but her expression couldn't be respectful, because she had already determined that the queen was a dead person in her heart.

And she watched the queen drink the poison with her own eyes.

So... it should be underestimated.

As for the queen's attitude towards servants, she must first bear with it, and second, she must not accept it. Only in her dissatisfaction can she reveal the attitude of "I'm watching you laugh"...

Ah!
It should be 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 person came out of the bathroom and passed by her.

After seeing Yang Mi kneeling, the girl said:

"Still thinking about the character?"

"……Um."

Although she felt uncomfortable after being 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 wrapped up.

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

"Correct."

Yang Mi nodded:
"I don't know what kind of play it is, but the role given 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~"

"Ok!"

A three-pointed, three-pointed smile appeared on Yang Mi's face, and she 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 for the audition."

"Mmmmm~"

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 work and is a light sleeper, she played a lot of supporting roles in the first few days of her stay, and she also asked her to make less noise when she went to the toilet...

You go to the toilet, what can you say to me?
How can I control the toilet water volume?

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

Now it's finally gone...

Ah!
Go take a shower first!

You have to open the bathroom door!
hum...

With a somewhat happy 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?
At night, the ventilation fan in the bathroom was not allowed to be turned on, which caused a bad smell when going to the bathroom the next morning...

Dirty.

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

Seeing that it was Xu Xin calling, she answered 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 that you can't tell anyone under the condition of absolute confidentiality. Come quietly to Hengdian and prepare to sign a contract."

"Om~~~"

Suddenly, Yang Mi felt a noise in her ears.

Her ears are ringing.

"What... what?"

She stared straight at her arm.

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

Along with it, there is 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 secret state."

"Om~~~~~~"

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.

After taking a few breaths, when Yang Mi spoke again, she suddenly found that her voice was hoarse:
"Did you really choose me?!"

"Ah."

After hearing her hoarse voice, which appeared to be 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 about?"

"I have no idea……"

"Don't think too much... Poof..."

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

"Since the role 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. With me here, I will 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...

But when the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to speak.

But I feel uncomfortable if I don't ask.

After thinking about it, he finally asked:
"How much... have you done?"

"What do you mean how much I have 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 .”

"and many more!"

"……what's wrong?"

"..."

Yang Mi fell silent again.

After a few seconds, she suddenly asked:

"If I say thank you, will it seem... a little bit of use of you?"

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

Xu Xin chuckled lightly:
"Anyway, 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:
"Thank you!"

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

"I know!"

"Well, hang up."

"……it is good."

The phone hangs up.

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

until the screen dimmed.

No one knew what she was thinking.

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

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

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

……

7pm.

Olympic creative team meeting tent.

Xu Xin looked at the time, and suddenly said to Zhang Yimou who was meditating:
"Director, I... have to ask for leave."

"Uh-huh."

Hearing this, Zhang Yimou nodded:

"Go ahead."

"Little Xu~~~"

Suddenly, Wei Lanfang stopped him:

"Why are you going?"

"...?"

For some reason, 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 looked a little puzzled, but he didn't delay, and after saying hello to everyone, he walked out quickly.

"Xu Xin, why are you going?"

As soon as I went out, I saw Jay Chou who had finished his makeup.

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

"Oh well."

Jay Chou waved at him.

No one else sent it.

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

The old rules, one hundred and fifty.

It was the driver who was waiting to live 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."

"Ah."

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

The streets are still busy at the moment.

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 grabbed a bench from someone's house.

Just sat in 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 dialed Xu Miao directly.

"Doo, hello?"

"Brother, where are you?"

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

"Okay, where's our dad?"

"Drunk and sleeping."

"Well...then I hang up."

"Ah."

Xu Miao's words completely reassured Xu Xin.

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

Waited about an hour or so.

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

almost.

Xu Xin stood up, put the ponytail 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.

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

The mouth of the circle is aimed at the northwest.

Then I 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 Ming 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.

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

The three yellow papers quickly burned up.

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

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

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

Ignoring the heavy traffic around.

Looking at the flames in front of him, he prayed in a low voice:
"Mom, I've collected the money~"
