I'm not just a director

There was a lot of wine at the table, besides Liu Tianxian, Jiang Pei'an was the youngest at the dinner table.

But his influence is unmatched by anyone sitting here.

"Director Jiang, I respect you, thank you for your support and cooperation a few years ago."

Although the crew is not allowed to drink alcohol during filming, alcohol is definitely indispensable for any business banquets.

As long as you don't get drunk, you can make sense, and you don't start work at night anyway.

Having said that, Dong Jie has already toasted Jiang Pei'an three glasses of wine, and the reason for each toast is different.

Jiang Peian picked up the wine glass and clinked it with her sitting next to him.

"Drink less."

Jiang Pei'an said.

"Thank you, Director Jiang, for your concern."

Dong Jie raised her head and drank the wine in the glass, her blushing cheeks turned even darker, and her eyebrows and eyes were full of charm.

"Director Jiang, I respect you too."

Chen Kun, who was sitting across from him, hesitated for a while, and after seeing Jiang Pei'an eating two mouthfuls of food, he quickly picked up his wine glass.

In this game tonight, he really wanted to find a reason to refuse to participate.

But when he saw that Jiang Pei'an was sought after everywhere in the crew, even the director Li Dawei respected him very much.

He suddenly realized that Jiang Pei'an was already a big shot in the entertainment industry.

He must want to eat the rice of the entertainment industry, offending such a big boss is really not good for him.

It's better to take this opportunity to turn hostility into friendship.

Seeing Chen Kun toasting to himself suddenly, Jiang Pei'an nodded, picked up the wine glass and touched him, but didn't say much.

Seeing Jiang Pei'an's attitude, Chen Kun's expression changed.

Jiang Pei'an ate his food leisurely, he has never been a generous person.

For those who helped him back then, he never forgot their kindness.

Similarly, for someone like Chen Kun who has hurt him, he naturally does not have the idea of ​​smiling at each other.

Seeing this, director Li Dawei quickly changed the subject and said with a smile:
"Director Jiang, I heard that your movie hired a top special effects team from Hollywood. Is everything going smoothly in the post-production work now? When will the movie be released?"

When this topic was mentioned suddenly, everyone turned their attention to Jiang Pei'an.

Not only the external media and audiences pay attention to the progress of "Inception", but also the insiders.

After all, everyone's appetite was whetted as early as the movie was released.

A major domestic production, Cheng Long and Li Lianjie co-starred, Hollywood's top special effects team, Jiang Pei'an played the male lead...

Whenever any of this information is revealed, the audience's expectations will be high.

Jiang Pei'an took a mouthful of food and said with a smile:
"The progress is not bad, and I will try to meet you at the end of the year."

"Then we can look forward to Director Jiang's masterpiece."

Li Dawei took a sip of his wine and said with emotion:
"I also wanted to be a film director at the beginning, but after directing a film, I realized that the gap between film and TV series is really too big..."

Hearing this, Jiang Pei'an nodded. There is still a big difference between a TV drama director and a movie director.

The essence of this problem is the centralization problem in China's film and television industry system.

In the TV drama industry, it is essentially a production-centered system, and production companies and producers have high production authority.

Even Qiong Yao dramas are screenwriter-centered, and with that comes a reduction in the director’s creative authority.

This reduction in creative authority actually directly results in the director having almost no editing authority.

Therefore, TV dramas essentially rely on the characters, the direction of the plot, and the authenticity of the performance to achieve success.

In the film industry, it is essentially a director-centered system, and most directors have high creative authority.

From sub-shots to editing, the degree of freedom of editing has been determined by the director to a large extent during the filming stage.

This further increases the director's editing authority.

Movies rely more on the director's time-space shaping and conscious aesthetic shaping through montage methods, and this has become the root of the movie's appeal to audiences.

This is why it is often said that "a movie is the director's personal movie".

To use a popular metaphor is probably, the train driver and the car driver.

One follows the established route, and the other has multiple ways to drive to the destination...

At the wine table, Jiang Pei'an told anecdotes about the filming, and many people listened with interest.

When he talked about filming on the snow-capped mountains in the snow-covered area, his brows frowned slightly inadvertently, and soon returned to normal.

Under the table, where no one could see, Jiang Pei'an could clearly feel his calves under the table clinging to his two feet.

Like two flexible snake heads, circling upwards and rubbing their thighs...

Jiang Pei'an raised his eyes and saw that sitting directly opposite him was Chen Kun.

Seeing Jiang Pei'an looking over, he smiled slightly, revealing a handsome face.

Seeing this, Jiang Pei'an shook his head without leaving a trace.

It's definitely not him, and it's not Gay.

Sitting on his left was Liu Tianxian who was cooking. Seeing Jiang Pei'an looking at her, she raised her head and stared at him blankly, her eyes were clear and stupid, and there was still a grain of rice sticking to the corner of her mouth.

What are you thinking, this girl is still a child.

Not from the opposite side, not from the side. Jiang Peian could probably guess who it was.

Dong Jie, who was not able to drink well, her face was flushed and her eyes were blurred, she was lowering her head at this time, and she was calmly smashing the sea cucumber in the bowl with her chopsticks...

Ms. Dong has thoughts about herself...

Jiang Pei'an shrank his legs back in his direction calmly, but those two feet immediately chased after him.

Jiang Peian sneered, "It's endless."

He stood up abruptly, and under the impact of force, Dong Jie's body suddenly fell forward on the table, and the others were startled by her action.

"Sorry, I drank a little too much..."

Seeing everyone looking at her, Dong Jie tidied her hair slightly.

"Since Miss Dong drank too much and it's getting late, why don't you come here today and everyone go back to rest first?"

Jiang Pei'an stood there and smiled.

"Okay, then everyone go back to rest early."

Li Dawei also stood up and said.

Dong Jie on the side also stood up, she didn't know if she had drunk too much or what happened, she was unsteady on her feet and fell beside Jiang Pei'an.

Jiang Pei'an stretched out his hand to support her, and said with a smile:
"Ms. Dong drinks a lot, so be careful."

"Thank you Director Jiang."

Dong Jie said in a low voice, she originally wanted to fall into Jiang Pei'an's arms, but Jiang Pei'an's hand kept grabbing her arm, and she resisted very much.

resist?

This made Ms. Dong very puzzled.

Is it because I'm not pretty enough?

However, Jiang Pei'an did not look at her again, turned around and left.

Miss Dong, who was lagging behind, looked at his back with complicated eyes.

……

"Mom, the teacher is leaving tomorrow, I want to chat with the teacher, can I come back later?"

On the way back to the hotel, Liu Tianxian shook his mother Liu Xiaoli's arm and said.

Li Dawei next to him smiled and said:
"The relationship between Qianqian and Director Jiang is really good. If you have any questions, please hurry up and ask your teacher for help."

Liu Xiaoli was a little embarrassed. After hearing what her daughter said, she originally wanted to follow her there.

But after thinking about it, she, a divorced woman with a baby, ran into the room of a popular director this night. If someone else saw her, she wouldn't be able to tell.

"Okay, don't stay too long, don't disturb the teacher's rest, you have a scene to shoot tomorrow."

Liu Xiaoli touched her daughter's head, slightly apologetic to Jiang Pei'an, and said:

"Director Jiang, I'm sorry, this girl is a little clingy to you."

Jiang Pei'an waved his hand and said with a smile:
"It's okay, I can help Sissy answer any questions she doesn't understand."

Li Dawei opened a new room for Jiang Pei'an where the crew of "The Golden Family" lived.

"What's wrong, girl, are you worried about anything recently?"

Back in the room, Jiang Pei'an took out a box of black tea from his luggage bag and made it.

"Would you like to drink some too? It will help you sleep."

Jiang Pei'an looked at Liu Tianxian and asked.

Liu Tianxian shook her head, she thought for a while and said:
"Teacher, I saw it all at the dinner table today?"

Jiang Peian was making tea and asked with a smile:

"What did you see?"

Liu Tianxian said seriously:

"I saw... Miss Dong Jie's feet are on your lap."

Jiang Peian's hand shook and he accidentally put too much tea.

He sighed, this is the top grade black tea he bought from a tea shop at a high price.

Forget it, it's the same if you drink more bubbles.

After pouring boiling water into the teacup, Jiang Pei'an turned to look at the serious Liu Tianxian.

The little girl's body gradually opened, and that delicate face glowed white under the light, as gentle as white jade.

"So, what does this mean?"

Jiang Pei'an asked with a smile.

"This means that Sister Dong Jie...Dong Jie...but you already have Sister Hu Jing."

Liu Tianxian spoke uprightly.

Jiang Pei'an picked up the teacup behind him, the tea leaves were floating in the cup, and the fragrance of tea rose from the cup.

"She likes it... let's just say she likes it, so what?

Besides, I'm handsome and talented, and I'm one of the rare men in the entire entertainment circle, so it's normal to be liked, right? "

Jiang Pei'an said these words without turning red or out of breath, as if he didn't say such words to put gold on his face.

What was even more explosive was that Liu Tianxian nodded in agreement and said:

"Teacher, I don't deny your words, but I think Dong Jie's liking for you is not pure, but she wants to use you."

Ok?
Hearing Liu Tianxian's words, Jiang Pei'an was a little surprised.

It's not easy for my little apprentice to see this. It's really not easy.

I thought she was just a silly child who was overprotected and careless.

Seeing that Jiang Pei'an was silent, Liu Tianxian continued:

"So teacher, you must not be tempted by beauty. Although Dong Jie is also very beautiful, you have no relationship foundation. Sister Hu Jing is your girlfriend."

Jiang Pei'an asked curiously:

"Where did you learn all this?"

Liu Tianxian said:

"In order to play the role of Bai Xiuzhu well, I searched for information online and read many books."

"What book did you read?"

"Words, romance novels..."

Jiang Pei'an smiled, no wonder this girl speaks in a different way, who can compare with those online writers in reasoning.

"Sissy, I don't deny what you saw today, so did I do anything wrong?"

Jiang Pei'an asked.

"No."

Liu Tianxian nodded.

"So, what happened today also sounded a wake-up call for you."

"I?"

"Yes, the entertainment industry is a vanity fair, and we are all trapped in it. What you saw today is just one of the many misfortunes in the entertainment industry.

Even you know that Dong Jie sacrificed her feet in order to get in touch with me, ahem... a deal.

The teacher hopes that you will never become such a person. Of course, you will not become such a person as long as I am here. "

Jiang Pei'an said slowly.

Liu Tianxian nodded and said:
"Anyway, teacher, you performed very well today."

"How did you find out that Dong Jie was using her feet? Ahem..."

"I saw it when I bent over to tie my shoelaces."

Liu Tianxian said angrily:

"I didn't expect that she usually looks weak and is gentle and amiable when she talks to everyone, but she would do this kind of thing in private."

Haha, there are a lot of things you haven't thought about.

After the incident broke out in later generations, who would have thought that she would do such a thing?

"Okay, it's getting late, you should go back to rest, by the way, don't spread the matter today.

You are still young, the teacher doesn't want you to get involved in this kind of thing, understand? "

"I know teacher, can't sister Hu Jing also say it?"

"Well...it's better not to talk about it. Although I'm not to blame for this matter, I still don't want your sister Hu Jing to worry."

"I see, good night, teacher."

Liu Tianxian said obediently, but she did not leave. Instead, she thought about it and asked:

"Teacher, you said that Dong Jie did that to curry favor with you, then I will take you as my teacher..."

"Snapped."

"Ouch! Teacher, why are you beating me?"

Before Liu Tianxian finished speaking, Jiang Pei'an immediately hit her on the head with a bomb. She covered her head and looked at Jiang Pei'an with tears in her eyes.

With a straight face, Jiang Pei'an said:
"If you have the time, you should spend more time thinking about the script, don't think about something all day long, go back and rest."

"Oh."

Liu Tianxian nodded aggrieved.

On the way back, Liu Tianxian was puzzled.

Dong Jie did such an outrageous thing with her feet on the wine table, the teacher just dismissed it lightly.

I just asked too much, but he actually hit me.

How unfair!
No, Liu Tianxian stopped suddenly, and she looked back at the place where Jiang Pei'an lived.

Could it be that the teacher likes Dong Jie doing things like that?

Oh, teacher, you told me earlier, actually I can do it too.

……

Jiang Pei'an didn't know Liu Tianxian's strange thoughts.

After breakfast the next morning, he walked around the crew of "The Family of Gold Fans".

I also met Dong Jie in the middle. Maybe she can join the entertainment industry. Although Jiang Pei'an rejected the things she did at the wine table yesterday.

But there was no shyness or embarrassment at all. When they met, they should say hello, and even asked Jiang Pei'an if he would be his guide.

Yes, this is the mentality that the entertainment industry should have.

After declining Dong Jie's kindness, Jiang Pei'an spent most of the day watching Liu Tianxian's performance.

After pointing out some performance problems for her, Jiang Pei'an didn't stay any longer.

After making an appointment with Liu Tianxian to meet at Nortel at the beginning of school, Jiang Pei'an left the crew of "The Family of Gold Fans"... (End of this chapter)
