I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

  Chapter 247 245. Can you say no? (Thanks to the leader of "SIMOUS!"!)

   "Sorry, I was drinking just now, and I just saw the message now. I'm not in Yanjing now, but in Hengdian."

  After this news was sent out, Xu Xin only received a message from Liu Yifei when he was walking all the way back to the China World Trade Center:

   "In Hengdian? Is it the location of "The Wind"?"

  To be honest, Xu Xin really doesn't want to use his brain at the moment.

   Wouldn't it be nice to sleep comfortably after drinking the wine?

  But because of his girlfriend's "conspiracy", he still came up with a sentence after thinking about it:

   "Yes, the exterior scene of the sound of the wind."

   "What kind of movie is this?"

  After seeing this news, Xu Xin is probably sure...

   This matter should be asked by herself.

   Otherwise, as long as someone with some social experience guides her, she will not let her ask such a question.

  Because it is taboo to talk about business at the wine table.

   But this is not absolute, there are still a lot of business to be discussed at the wine table.

  But as a person who didn’t participate in today’s drinking party, if someone asked her to “drink” on the premise of being told to “drink”, then she simply doesn’t have enough social experience.

   Seeing this, Xu Xin became interested instead.

   Didn't the second general, Hei Ha, Black and White Impermanence, be by her side... She asked by herself?

  What does this mean?

  He came interested.

   After thinking about it, he asked:

   "What? Are you interested in Yifei?"

  The message was replied quickly:

   "I want to audition, can I?"

  Xu Xinxin said that you are really straightforward...

  But it can also be seen from the side that she really doesn't seem to have studied these routines of interacting with people very deeply.

  Since this is the case, Xu Xin pondered for a while, and felt that it would be better to speak bluntly.

   Otherwise, she may not be able to understand if it is too deep.

   Then replied:

   "There are actually only two important female roles in this drama, and there are already candidates for both of them."

   "Is one of them Liang Bingning?"

"right."

   "The other...is Mimi?"

   "That's right. And the other roles are not female characters, so it doesn't make much sense for you to audition."

   "Small roles are fine too."

  ? ? ? ?

  This message made Xu Xin suddenly see more possibilities.

  Could it be...

real…

   As I guessed?

   After thinking about it, he replied:

   "Wait a minute, I just came back, I'm going to take a shower first."

   Then he called Yang Mi again:

   "Hello, are you at the hotel?...Hiss, this orange is so sour!"

   She muttered while on the speakerphone, and handed the whole orange to Dad.

  I picked another one that looks more yellow.

  Xu Xin didn't care, and said directly:

   "Well. Let me tell you something..."

  He told his fiancee all the chats between Liu Yifei and himself.

  Then, Yang Mi also reacted:

   "She couldn't have fallen out with Aunt Liu...and her godfather, right?"

look.

   Sometimes people's chatting skills are really important.

  Maybe Liu Yifei didn't even think about what her message revealed.

   However, in the eyes of someone with a heart, what was exposed in this sentence was enough to make her stand naked in front of the other party, without any secret at all.

  But immediately Yang Mi heard the sound of ding ding dong dong.

   asked:

"What are you doing?"

"Make tea, drink some water, hangover. Let me tell you... These two people drink very scary, three or two, Li Ge's alcohol is still strong... If I didn't stop the loss in time, I would really fall down today gone."

  It’s okay if he doesn’t mention this, but when he mentioned this, Yang Mi simply exposed his lie:

   "You knew you were going to drink, why didn't you let Zhang Jiao follow you?"

   "...she followed."

   "Stop doing this, I'll know what's going on as soon as you open your mouth."

   "...tsk."

  Xu Xin didn't feel bad, so he smacked his lips, but laughed instead:

   "Or say you are my wife."

   "...Hmph. Wait for her to come back! See how I deal with her!"

   "Stop doing this, I'll let her go."

   Putting the kettle on, Xu Xin leaned on the sofa and lit a cigarette.

"We're not being mean. Yes, it's her job to take care of me, but not too hard. We watched The Devil Wears Prada together. You're not Meryl Streep, You shouldn't ask other people to be Anne Hathaway. Comparing your heart to your heart~ It's not a big problem, don't mess with those who have something or nothing, I don't like it."

   "...Got it! I feel bad for you, I'm afraid you'll drink too much and there's no one to pour water..."

"I know, but there is no need to be so harsh. In essence, everyone is just a colleague, an assistant, not a servant. You can't have the mentality of being superior and divorced from the masses~ We must take our art rooted in life, so that we can Have roots. Only with roots can we not be assimilated by this place of fame and fortune..."

   "Yes, yes, my big baby...Isn't it okay if I don't talk about it?"

  Yang Mi shook her head helplessly, and then took the initiative to expose this topic.

  She would listen to these words, but she would also listen to some things Uncle Xu taught her.

   Leading the subordinates is nothing more than a combination of grace and power.

   But she won't disobey her fiancé...he's an **** who needs to be smoothed.

   "Then how do you want to deal with Liu Yifei?"

   "That's why I asked you, do you want to unite with her?"

"It's not a union, it's about recruiting her... But I don't have the capital now, so I definitely can't get her. Besides, I said I'm going to start my own company next year, and she believes me? She's not that stupid. I have a lot of resources now, but if I want to be able to distribute them and give them to others casually, there is still a long way to go.”

   "Then what do you think I should do?"

   Xu Xin rubbed his forehead:

   "I'm drinking too much now, and I don't want to think about these things, so just give me an idea... thinking about it gives me a headache."

   "Hmm...Let me think about it..."

  Holding the phone, Yang Mi thought about it for about 30 seconds, and said:

   "Just talk about personal relationship, when will you come back?"

   "Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I'm looking at a few alternate locations tomorrow. If it ends early, go back early, and if it ends late, it will be the day after tomorrow."

   "Then you say that you drank too much, and you can't get your head around. When you go back, call her and let's go out for dinner."

   "After I come back, I will go directly to Xi'an to start convincing Hua Dao. Then I will bring people to Yanjing and start the audition directly."

   "It's okay, you are busy with your work, let me think about how to deal with it."

"good…"

  Just as he was speaking, there was a knock on the door.

  Xu Xin was taken aback.

   "Wait, someone is knocking on the door."

   "Oh, who is it? It can't be some charming beauty who wants to throw herself into her arms?"

  Hearing this, Xu Xin instinctively replied:

   "If you were outside the door, I am in this state... You may not be able to get out of bed tomorrow."

   "..."

  The corner of Yang Mi's mouth twitched while the speakerphone was on all the time.

  Yang Dalin simply stood up.

   Looking at her father who got up and went straight into the room to sleep, she looked embarrassed.

  Xu Xin didn't know that his words were heard by the old man.

   I don’t even know that the father-in-law started moaning and moaning when he entered the house... I wish I could push his head into the toilet.

  After opening the door, looking at Zhang Jiao who was wheezing and wheezing, he froze...

   "Why are you back?"

   "Uh...not...Director Xu...I'm sorry..."

   "?"

  Xu Xin was stunned for a moment, then he understood.

   Waved his hands speechlessly:

   "Come on, hurry home and go to sleep...it's Zhang Jiao, I asked her to go home and sleep."

   This was said on the phone in front of Zhang Jiao.

   Then, Yang Mi's voice sounded:

   "Then let her go back quickly, isn't Zhao Liying still waiting at home..."

   "..."

  Zhang Jiao was dumbfounded.

  But Xu Xin waved his hand:

   "Go back and rest early, just come around 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."

   After speaking, he closed the door.

  The girl with a dazed face was left...

   "That's fine, I won't tell you anymore, I'll go to bed after I give her a message back. Dizziness~"

   "Well, don't open the window, do you hear me? I'm afraid you have a cold."

   "Know~"

   "Pour yourself a glass of water and put it by the bed."

   "No, as soon as you fan the quilt, it will be full of fluff when you take it in the morning."

   "You put it in a thermos, idiot!"

   "Tea water is in the thermos cup."

   "You won't fall?"

   "Oh, that's fine, it's not that I can't take care of myself, I'm dead."

   "...um, MUA~"

  The phone hung up, and he sent Liu Yifei a message:

   "After I return to Yanjing in the past two days, let's go out for dinner. I drank a little too much, and I'm too dizzy. Go to bed first."

  After sending, I threw the phone aside, forgot to boil the water, and went straight into the bedroom, hitting my head on the bed and being unable to get up.

  …

  November 12th.

  Xu Xin returned to Yanjing.

   But I didn’t stay at home for long, even less than half a day, and flew to Xiying Studio at night.

   And one after another, many domestic companies have received the audition requirements and audition clips for several protagonists from Xiying Studio.

  Xu Xin initially estimated that the film should be released in late December or early January.

   As for the shooting time...

  The indoor play should end in about ten days and half a month at most.

  The premise is that the status of the actors is all right.

   It’s not that all movies are shot so quickly... The main thing is that the scenes of this movie are all concentrated in the studio, and there are no special effects, special effects, wires, etc.

  It has a lot of literature and drama.

   This kind of scene is the most labor-saving to shoot, because there are not so frequent transitions.

  So if the shooting time is too long, it is either the actor's problem or the director's problem.

  In fact, the most time-consuming part of filming is not the actors, but the arrangement of various scenes.

   Happily, those are not needed in this drama.

  As long as there are no problems with the early stage setting, everything depends on how the actors interpret it.

   And during the selection of Fu Huadao, Liang Bingning made a special trip back and put on those cheongsams that didn't seem to fit well.

  It’s just a sample. After the clothing style is selected, the specific actor’s clothes need to be cut by a tailor according to the body shape.

   Xu Xin and her who met again seemed to be very close.

  Neither of the two talked about why they sent the script audition invitation to other companies instead of digesting it internally.

   They are all adults, how could some things be unexpected.

  Aside from their own petty thoughts, in the final analysis, isn’t everyone pursuing a win-win situation?

  After being combined into a close interest group, let alone Xu Xin... Liang Bingning also hopes that there will be more big names in this show, the better.

  The more big names there are, the stronger the appeal.

   Her status as one of the two heroines becomes more prominent.

  The so-called "internal digestion" was actually the beginning of the game between the two sides at the beginning.

  Whoever is serious is the real loser.

   Moreover, the fact that the West Film Studio spread the audition invitations to the circle can even highlight from the side, the importance they attach to Liang Bingning.

  Willing to do so much for "Li Ningyu", Xiying Film Studio's determination to praise Liang Bingning seems to be full.

  This kind of attitude is what Liang Bingning needs most.

  She can straighten her back now and in the future to fight for more things with other people in this circle.

  Who really dares to wear small shoes for her on a "big level", then he has to weigh the Xiying Studio behind it.

Um.

  How is it not a win-win situation?

  …

   On the afternoon of the 14th, Xu Xin, who had stayed at Xiying Studio for another two days, returned home.

Today is Friday.

   When he got home, it was after 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

  As soon as she entered the door, she saw Yang Mi lying on a recliner with a mask on her face, playing with a cigarette in her hand.

  No point.

   Just clamped the cigarette in his hand.

   He is not surprised.

   Gu Xiaomeng is a smoker, and the script also needs to use two brands of cigarettes to cooperate with Wu Zhiguo and spread the information.

  The sound of footsteps also woke up Yang Mi who was still wearing a mask on her face. After seeing her boyfriend returning home in a hurry, she said:

"came back?"

"Um…"

  Bringing Zhang Jiao back home, he ignored the three girls and said as if they didn't exist:

   "I'm going to take a shower, are you going?"

   If it was normal, Yang Mi would definitely follow her future husband into the house in a panic.

  But today is uncharacteristically:

   "No, I have to put on makeup soon."

   "...A date?"

   "Yes, I have dinner with Liu Yifei tonight, we will be together."

   "..."

  Xu Xin paused, frowned and asked:

   "How to eat?"

"Because she came here for you. I thought about it and thought it would be more appropriate for us to go together. Besides, Uncle Xu took me to a very, very delicious private restaurant two days ago. The taste is delicious! Huaiyang Vegetables! I want to have dinner with you once."

   "...?"

  Xu Xin was puzzled for a while:

   "When did our dad come over again? Why didn't I know?"

   Yang Mi is already immune to the term "Our Dad".

   Leaning on the recliner and shrugging:

   "Uncle Xu said: Sanjin will eat a fart! He is happy to eat sheep, and he doesn't know much about Huaiyang cuisine."

   "..."

  Xu Xin was speechless:

   "The old man is too heartless, I am his own son!"

   "Hehehe~... Hurry up and take a shower, I've chosen the clothes for you... Your hair has grown too, Tingting, take the clippers, I'll cut it for him."

  Sun Ting nodded, got up and walked to the next room.

   Actually, it's not that Xu Xin is stingy, or that he doesn't even want to go to the barber shop... but that it's completely unnecessary.

  A group of people on the Internet also said that he and Director Zhang have the same hairstyle.

   It is said that the hairstyle is the same style, but it is actually to save trouble.

  His brain is in good shape, and his hair doesn’t need much care. Just put a 5mm clipper head on the electric clipper, and push it against his head.

  Go to the barber shop, and the barber shop does the same.

   But the problem is not tossing.

  Besides... perhaps because of her preconceived impressions, Yang Mi can't stand her brother staying long.

  As soon as his hair grows, she will think of the idiot who leaned on the Ferrari every day at the gate of the school when he was a freshman, and his head was turned into a frog by the cos prince with jelly water.

   Oops, that picture...

  It's too beautiful to look at.

  So when the Olympic Games got busy, seeing that he didn't have time to go to the barber shop, he simply bought a clipper for him.

  He came and went again and again, his barber card, which cost more than 20,000 yuan, became the place where Sun Ting and Wu Qiqi brought their relatives to have their hair done during the holidays...

   Never been there again.

  …

  Xu Xin didn't take a shower first, so she sat in the living room and was surrounded by an apron by hair stylist Yang Xiaomi.

   After a while, cut it and wash it together.

  As a result, just as the fader was turned up, Xu Xin's phone rang suddenly.

   "I'm looking at ~ above the moon..."

  When you hear this ringtone, you know it's a private call.

   Zhang Jiao picked it up and looked at it, then said:

   "It's Brother Xu Miao."

   "Well, go ahead and turn on the speakerphone."

  Zhang Jiao held the phone and handed it to Xu Xin who couldn't draw his hand.

   "Hey, what's the matter?"

   "Are you in Yanjing?"

   "Here, I just got home."

   "Then you are dating someone, they are still waiting for your news."

   "Wow who?"

   "Well sweet."

"Well…"

  Xu Xin was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized:

   "Oh!! Ah, I forgot if I didn't mention it."

   "You really... Hurry up, isn't today Friday, invite someone to have dinner tonight."

   "Okay, let her contact me."

  The phone hung up, and Yang Mi asked:

   "Jing Tian? That classmate of yours?...What's going on?"

   "Eh? I didn't tell you?"

   "...Nope. What's going on?"

   "Yeah...huh? You know her?"

   "How fresh, big brother, when I took you and Lao Wang to school last year, didn't I just say that she and that... Zheng Xing were competing for the school belle. Did you forget?"

   "..."

  Xu Xin was stunned for a moment, then said in a speechless sentence:

   "I always feel like I have a lot of things to do every day."

   "That's why I asked you to find an assistant. How could you remember so many things yourself!"

   "..."

   Now, Xu Xin also realized that he really seems to lack someone around him to manage the trivial matters of life.

  But he didn't think about it for the time being. After he directly told his fiancée the ins and outs of this matter, Yang Mi frowned:

   "So...she is not simple. You don't think it's inappropriate for the role?...The female killer?"

   "No, I asked Teacher Yu, she couldn't hold it up. So..."

   Finished talking with Yu Zhen again.

  Yang Mi was completely speechless:

   "Can it work?...Will it be too confusing?"

   "It doesn't matter, I gave you face, if you don't want it, you can't blame others."

   "But isn't Uncle Xu still working with them..."

   "So I'm saving face."

   "Then this face is not enough..."

  Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Xu Xin shrugged casually:

"If everyone can't cooperate because of such a small matter, it means that her family is nothing more than that. So, it doesn't matter... Today is Friday, and the school is just on holiday, so I guess I won't be able to have dinner with you tonight. Eating with Liu Yifei is more important."

   "This... okay."

  Yang Mi is not someone who can't tell priorities.

  Then, Xu Xin's phone rang again:

   "I'm looking into the distance..."

"Hello?"

   "Xu... Hello Brother Xu, I am Jing Tian."

   "Haha, hello, I'm about to call you. I'm sorry, I've been busy with movies these days, so I don't have time to go back to school to say hello to you..."

"It's fine."

  Jing Tian's voice was very quiet, after a polite voice, she said:

   "In the evening... Brother Xu, do you have time?"

   "Yes, I was about to talk, shall we have a meal together? I will choose a place and send you the address later?"

   "Um... ok. What time is it?"

   "Seven o'clock, how about it?"

"OK."

  After agreeing, there was a sudden silence over there, and the voice sounded again:

   "Just... Do I need to bring an agent?"

   "..."

   "..."

  Yang Mi's hand stopped, and she blinked subconsciously.

  The meaning of this is the same as that of Ming Qiang.

   Just thinking about it, I heard Xu Xin chuckle:

   "Ha~ It's a family banquet, what are you doing with your manager?"

   But this time, Jing Tian's answer was much faster:

   "Yeah, okay, then I get it. See you tonight~"

   "Well, see you tonight."

  The phone hung up, and Xu Xin said:

   "Believe it or not, her manager asked her to ask that question just now."

   "..."

  Yang Mi frowned.

  After pushing Xu Xin's hair twice, he said:

   "Why do you feel that the comer is not kind? Her management team won't think that she can get a big role in this drama or what?... so crazy?"

   "Let's see when the time comes."

  Compared to Yang Mi's frowning, Xu Xin is very calm.

   "I'm looking at her, not her agency..."

   "...Then where are you going to take her to eat?"

   "Next to the school."

"…What?"

  Yang Mi was stunned:

   "Next to the school?"

"yes."

   "...Come on, why don't I reserve a table and we all go to that Huaiyang restaurant?"

   "It's not necessary, the choice there is to remind her, no matter me or her, we are classmates and students first, and then we have other identities."

   "..."

   After a while, the buzzing sound sounded again.

  …

  Driving the A6 all the way to the school, obviously, because of the holiday, there are many people in the restaurant in the living area of ​​Beiying School.

  The restaurant Xu Xin chose is a Sichuan-Chongqing stir-fry.

  The dishes are Jianghu dishes from Sichuan.

   But the taste is really nothing to say.

  Not to mention anything else, the green pepper shredded pork rice bowl for 8 yuan is a delicacy.

   But when the appointed time was approaching, Zhang Jing looked at this "Sichuan fried pork" restaurant in a commercial vehicle, her eyes filled with speechlessness:

   "Just eat here? Are you kidding me? How about treating guests to dinner? You can't choose this kind of place, right?"

   "...?"

   Jing Tian, ​​who was sitting next to her, had a strange expression on her face, but she didn't say anything, and directly pressed the door open button, intending to get out of the car.

   "Eh. Sweet!"

"What's wrong?"

   Jing Tian who got out of the car was a little confused.

  Zhang Jing looked at her face like a normal person, and said speechlessly:

   "How about... let's change to another hotel? This place..."

  Hearing this, Jing Tian shook her head:

   "I'm a student, it's normal to eat here. Go back."

   "..."

  Zhang Jing was even more speechless.

  But after hearing this, it is hard to say anything...

  Can't say anything either.

   She could only let her walk into the restaurant.

  After losing sight of anyone, she said speechlessly:

   "What a broken place..."

  …

  Xu Xin booked a small private room.

   It is a small round table for six people.

  Usually, this kind of box is used to eat with a few buddies in the same dormitory, or for "friendship".

  He was not in a hurry to order, but just ordered a pot of tea and waited patiently.

  Before 7 o'clock, there was a knock on the door.

  After the door was pushed open, Xu Xin saw a face that was still familiar.

   After all, I must have seen it in the big class.

   It's just that the two didn't say hello to each other before they knew about this relationship.

  So it’s not a special ingredient.

   "Come on, sit down."

  Xu Xin greeted with a smile.

   Then handed over the paper menu at hand.

   "Shall we order first?"

"OK."

  Jing Tian responded, took off the down jacket, looked at the menu, and said actively:

   "Is it okay not to drink?"

   "OK."

  Xu Xin responded, and took a glass and filled her with tea.

  Jing Tian, ​​she should have eaten here too, after looking at it, she ticked off two dishes, and then handed over the menu.

  Xu Xin took it naturally, and glanced at her order.

   Cabbage with tofu and braised eggplant.

   After thinking about it, he picked a twice-cooked pork and a large plate of chicken.

   then asked:

"rice?"

   "..."

  Jing Tian pursed her lips...

   showed a tangled look.

  But in the end... she still said:

   "Noodles!"

   "Hahaha~"

  Xu Xin immediately found it interesting.

  Looking at the words "Dapanji (free two servings of noodles, I wrote "2" after the pulled noodles in the staple food column.

   Then got up and handed the menu to the waiter outside.

  After returning, he held the teacup, thought for a while, and said:

   "Want to act in the movie "The Wind"?"

  He felt... since the two of them chose to get along with each other as students, they shouldn't talk about anything too profound.

   Just go straight.

But…

  Thousands of calculations, he did not expect the other party to give such an unexpected answer:

   "Can I not act?"

   "..."

   It’s the beginning of the month, ask for a monthly pass! Thanks to the leader of the "SIMOUS," gangster, if you add updates, it will be settled this month! The National Day is not without updates... It is really exhausted last month. So... please let me take it easy, thank you. After all, I still owe the updates of the three lords... I will try my best to catch up! Thank you for your support!
