The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 54 Have Your Own Rhythm

Binjiang Avenue in the Jinling section of the Yangtze River was lit up with dim street lights.

A handsome young man, riding an old bicycle, pulled a beautiful girl.

Both of them are handsome and have a high rate of turning heads.

These two people are Li Shengyao and Chen Xun.

Li Shengyao returned to Jinling from Yanjing, and would go out every night to see the beautiful scenery of Jinling, sometimes riding a bicycle, sometimes taking a bus.

This was the first time that the two traveled together after Chen Xun "confessed" at Yanjing Airport that day.

At this time, Chen Xun was wearing a simple denim shirt, sitting behind the bicycle, holding Li Shengyao's clothes with both hands.

She happened to be facing the Yangtze River.

The Yangtze River at night looks wide and straight.

There is a cruise ship in the middle of the river, probably tired from running, and it is walking slowly at this time, with the searchlight on the bow floating slowly.

There are many tall buildings on the other side of the river. At this time, the lights are on, and the lights are reflected in the river water, swaying with the water waves.

If she and Li Shengyao were natives of Jinling, walking hand in hand along the Yangtze River every day after get off work, it would definitely be a kind of enjoyment.

"Ring bell bell!"

A bell rang behind them, and a group of teenage students stepped on the pedals to stand up, bent over and accelerated forward.

They have smiles and youth on their faces.

The car was going very fast, and when it passed Li Shengyao, it brought a gust of wind.

Compared with them, Li Shengyao was much slower.

Chen Xun couldn't help joking: "They are all young people, you are already old."

"Tch, why should I compare with them?"

"You just can't compare."

Li Shengyao shook his head, "It's just a group of little kids. I want to catch up with them. It's a matter of minutes, but the most important thing in life is to have your own rhythm, so that you can be accurate and fast."

Although there are relatively few cars here, the street lights are not very bright, and there are a lot of green shade on both sides of the road. In many places, the branches and leaves cover the street lights, and the trees are dark and slippery.

Li Shengyao didn't want to ride so fast.

It's a trivial matter to wrestle by yourself, but it's a sin to bump into the grandpa and aunt who are walking.

Teenagers want to be fast, but he just wants to be healthy and out of trouble.

Chen Xun pouted, "I don't believe it."

He laughed, "Look ahead."

There are many late-night food stalls on the side of the main road ahead, and there are a lot of pedestrians. The teenagers who had just rushed up now slowed down.

But it was two middle-aged men who stopped them, and they were reprimanding the teenagers for not being good at riding and almost hitting someone.

Chen Xun changed the subject, "What did Guo Xiaodong mutter to you this afternoon?"

Li Shengyao spoke out Guo Xiaodong's suggestion.

"He is so superstitious, why don't you believe this?"

Li Shengyao laughed, "There are two points. One is that I dislike the Hong Kong film and television industry. The other is that I have absolute confidence. As long as I don't mess around, I can succeed. I don't need any magicians."

The filming of "Funny Family" went smoothly, which gave Lee Sheng Yew great confidence.

This is a sitcom, and the requirements for shooting rhythm are particularly high.

When to use which lens, when to be slow, and when to be fast, all must be just right to highlight the point of laughter.

He can feel that his directing skills are becoming more and more mature.

This made him more confident and more aware of where his path was and how he should go.

Sun Liwei's feet, the machine broke down in the afternoon, even if the crew is really unlucky, it's just a delay for a few days, he doesn't need to mess with those gods and ghosts.

Just like what he just said, just go at your own pace.

Chen Xun liked Li Shengyao's confident appearance, so he smiled and nodded.

At this moment, with a click, the chain of the old bicycle broke.

Chen Xun covered his mouth and laughed.

"It seems that your luck is really bad today."

Li Shengyao shook his head, "Small things, how can luck be involved."

Chen Xun jumped out of the car, "What should we do now?"

"Just follow me."

He then pushed the bicycle forward for a while, and within 100 meters, he found a car repair shop, had someone connect the chain, and the car repairer even applied a few drops of lubricating oil.

10 minute to get it done.

"Boss, how much is it?"

"Three dollars."

Li Shengyao nodded, paid the money, then stepped on the bicycle, and drove Chen Xun away.

The car repairer applied lubricating oil, the chain turned more lubriciously, and the friction was smaller. Li Shengyao saved more effort and rode more easily.

"Look, what can be solved with three yuan, can't be related to luck and feng shui."

"When we encounter problems, don't worry. If you have the ability, you can solve them naturally. If you don't have the ability, it's useless to rush."

Chen Xun wrapped his arms around Li Shengyao's waist, leaned his head on Li Shengyao's back, and listened with a smile.

……

At about ten o'clock, Li Shengyao took Chen Xun back to the downstairs of the hotel where she was staying.

Chen Xun lived in the three-star hotel booked by the crew, and other actors also lived here.

It's very close to the hotel where Lee Sheng Yew stayed, but it's not the same class.

She got off the bicycle and said softly, "Do you want to go upstairs and have something to eat?"

There is no moonlight tonight, and there are very few stars.

Outside this ordinary three-level hotel, there are no headlights.

The street lights are dim, better than nothing.

Chen Xun stood pretty on the side of the road, did not look at Li Shengyao, but stepped on his feet slightly, leaned forward, and leaned towards Li Shengyao's side.

The night wind blew away her long hair, she turned her head sideways, and stretched out her hand to comb her long hair back, revealing her smooth forehead.

Li Shengyao threw the bicycle behind a big tree, "If this bicycle is stolen, you will be responsible."

Chen Xun pursed his lips, then walked in front with a smile on his lips.

Not long after, they entered Chen Xun's room. The women's room was more fragrant than the men's room, and there seemed to be a sense of haze.

Chen Xun opened the drawer, blushing, and handed a bag of snacks to Li Shengyao.

It turned out to be hot and sour tofu slices, lotus root slices, shredded taro, and small biscuits.

She continued to sit on the edge of the bed, and quickly stood up blushing, but then sat down again, but did not dare to look at Li Shengyao.

"I don't eat these."

He really doesn't like to eat this kind of snack, if it is fruit, he will eat some.

Chen Xun lowered his head and hummed.

"Okay, it's late, I'll go back first."

He said getting up and leaving.

"Snapped!"

Chen Xun grabbed his hand, she stomped her feet twice, pouted her mouth, and there was resentment in her eyes.

No one should have seen the appearance of the heart-wrenching little woman.

Li Shengyao just teased her, he put away his smile, "You really don't regret it?"

"No regrets."

It is clear what it means to invite a man into the room at this time.

Li Shengyao nodded, naturally he would not pretend to be a saint.

"Do you have a small umbrella?"

"Need not."

"Need not?"

"Well, it's really unnecessary."

……

early morning.

Chen Xun blushed, and there was pride in his tone, "As I said, I have never talked about a boyfriend."

"Okay, I see."

After a while, Li Shengyao laughed and said, "Little girl, I can't let you suffer, so I can show you a way to get rich."

"What way?"

"Eleventh back to Yanjing to get a loan, and then buy a good courtyard house. After ten years, I guarantee that you will become a billionaire."
