I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

  Chapter 69 067. Soft, Medium, Hard, and Yuxi

   "Xiao Xu, you did a good job."

  After the meeting ended, "as usual", Zhang Wu patted Xu Xin on the shoulder with admiration.

  He liked this young man more and more.

  Unfortunately... this kid has never been a soldier. If he can join the army directly from a college student, follow the line of literature and art, and be transferred to his side to cultivate well, he will definitely be a pillar and a good seed in the future.

  But now it's not working.

   There are still more than two years left before the Olympic Games. After the end, the child will be over 22 years old.

Pity.

   What a seedling.

  Passionate, responsible, dedicated...

  Xu Xin hurriedly expressed his thanks politely, and then planned to go home.

  Minister Tian’s last words mean that you just write it, and I will help you polish it.

  With the help of this person, let’s not talk about whether the torch will be selected in the end, but at least the article described in it must be fine.

  So he's going to get it out tonight.

  Getting into the car, he habitually checks his phone first.

  In the past two days, Yang Mi and him chatted by text messages every day, and basically had to clean up the text message storage box of 80 messages every two days.

  So it has become his habit to glance at his phone when he has time.

   Sure enough, several messages were sent.

   "I want to learn to fight."

   This is the first article.

"This afternoon, I have a fight scene... I feel very tired when I do the movements. But Huang Xiaoming and Liu Tianxian are very smooth. Especially Liu Tianxian, she is wearing a white dress, holding a long sword and doing those poses. It's really cool! It's so handsome!"

   This is the second article.

  The interval between the second and third text messages was three minutes.

   "It's decided, I'll start practicing when I get back! Everyone else has worked so hard, there's no reason why I can't, right?"

  Seeing this message, Xu Xin thought for a while and replied:

   "Practicing kung fu is quite hard, but costume dramas really need these in the past two years. It is indeed a necessary skill. I agree."

   Read the next article after replying:

   "I'm done! Are you done yet?"

   It was after 3 pm when the message was sent.

   Followed by the last and latest few, which were sent ten minutes ago:

   "Here we are at the hotel, hey, let me tell you, big news! Big honey!"

   "No, big secret! Hey! Do you know the big secret! Do you want to know?!"

"Forget it, I can't change your secret, so I'll tell you directly. I went back to the hotel just now, and guess what! The crew of "The Golden Armor in the City" is coming! Wow! Jay Chou! Zhang Yimou! Brother Fa ! Share a hotel with me!"

   "Ulla!"

   "...?"

  Xu Xin was taken aback.

   Blinking, flipping through the penultimate message, carefully reading every word...

  What do you mean?

meaning is…

   A hotel?

   No way, Ah SIR.

  Hengdian is so small?

   Can you come across this?

   After thinking about it, he tentatively replied:

   ""Golden Flowers in the City" and you are in the same hotel?"

  The other party did not reply.

  Xu Xin thought about it and decided to drive home first.

   This side is quite close to Shijia Hutong, not far.

   And just walked out, merged into the traffic flow of the evening rush hour, and waited for the traffic lights, Yang Mi's message replied:

"That's right! Let me tell you, after all, it's a big crew, really. There are so many people in our crew, only 30 rooms have been booked. We are a TV series~ They have directly packed two floors, you know? Two floors , and they are all high-level! Really rich! Are you finished?"

   Taking time to glance at the message, Xu Xin became more and more speechless.

  Xin said, girl, if you know that there is a room on the two floors and you have to live in one of the rooms, are you crazy?

  But at this moment Xu Xin suddenly didn't want to talk to her about it.

  I originally told her before that when the "secret" could be revealed, I would tell her.

  Can now...

  Suddenly, a bad taste appeared in his heart.

   What if I don't tell her.

   Then appeared in front of her with a bang...

  What expression does this girl have?

   After a moment, Xu Xin burst into laughter.

  After making up his mind, he replied with a bit of bad taste:

   "Well, I just finished my work. It's great. I really like Director Zhang. It must be great if I can study under him."

Ding.

   "That's, what do you think, which actor doesn't want to lean on Yimou's thigh? I want to too!"

   Look at your worthless look!

   Seeing this news, Xu Xin was speechless.

   Before I could reply, the girl sent another message:

   "Eh?! When I went to the bathroom just now, I received today's push news. Zhang Yimou became the director of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games!?"

   "Ah? Really? When? I don't know."

  God knows what kind of grandson Xu Xin would laugh at when he replied to this message.

   And between the lines of the girl's reply, a sense of stupidity also naturally appeared in his heart.

   "Just today! I just watched the news, so he will make a movie when he comes? Why don't you make the Olympics first?"

   "Maybe he has several jobs."

"so good."

   "What's so nice?"

   "I'm envious. If I can play a trick, I think it's worth it. Not only can I command so many big-name stars, but I have also taken on such a heavy responsibility! He is really amazing!"

have to.

   Zhang blows out.

   During the evening rush hour in Yanjing, the car moves very slowly.

  Xu Xin took the mobile phone and replied to the message while following the slow traffic flow and dawdling home.

   And when he got home, he took two bags of quick-frozen dumplings from the refrigerator, cooked them and ate them, and the chat between him and the girl came to an end.

  After telling the other party that she was going to work, Yang Mi never replied.

  Xu Xin turned on his laptop, and started rushing to draft according to the thoughts in his mind.

   And just as the beginning was drafted, the phone rang again.

  He thought it was Yang Mi, picked it up and saw it was Coach Yu Fei.

  Ask Xu Xin why he hasn’t been to the gym these days, it’s been two days beyond his fitness plan.

  Xu Xin just remembered that he really hadn't been there for several days.

   After replying that she was a bit busy at work and was about to go on a business trip for a few months, Coach Yu Fei asked Xu Xin for her email address.

   Said to make a travel fitness plan for him, the kind that can be done even without equipment.

   After Xu Xin expressed his thanks, the two ended their conversation politely.

   Then, he directly adjusted the phone to vibrate mode, put it aside, and officially started working.

  …

   With the support of the design concept, it is not difficult to write an explanation of about a thousand words.

  Adding that, he realized what Tian Heping meant.

  So a statement from the perspective of the team was sent to Tian Heping the next day.

  After reading it, Tian Heping still had that kind look on his face. After taking off his reading glasses, he said:

   "Okay, let's put it here first, I'll take a closer look later to see if there is anything that needs to be changed."

   "Eh, good."

  Xu Xin responded politely and thanked:

   "Thank you, Minister Tian."

"fine."

  Tian Heping smiled and waved his hand:

   "Everything should be done."

   "Then I'll go to work first?"

   "Well, let's go... By the way, Xiao Xu."

   It seemed that he suddenly remembered something, Tian Heping stopped him again.

  Under Xu Xin's puzzled eyes, he nodded:

"well done."

   "Uh...thanks."

  Xu Xin said goodbye again politely, and after he left, Tian Heping put on his reading glasses again, looked at the font that was obviously two sizes larger than the normal handwriting, and showed a more genuine smile than amiable.

self-mumbling:

   "This kid... is really careful."

  …

  Noon on the 27th.

  Xu Xin arrived at the airport.

  He came here in his own car, because he carried a lot of luggage, two big boxes. It was originally a box, but after packing for a long time, he found that it couldn't fit. He had to put the rest of the luggage in the car, and then bought another box at noon.

  Otherwise, if you buy the box and come back to pack it, there may not be enough time.

   But the car had to stop at the airport.

  Parking at the airport is expensive, but it's a drizzle for him...

  It’s actually quite interesting to say.

  In the past few days, he has been busy from morning to night every day. Every time he drives home, he drives the A6 directly onto the curb in front of his house, and gets off directly to go home.

  The road width of Shijia Hutong, plus the one-meter curb, must not block the road.

   When Xu Daqiang bought this house, he had the foresight to tear down the courtyard wall at the entrance. It doesn't matter whether the bricks are from the Republic of China or the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

   Isn’t it just a brick?

  After the demolition, a garage was changed.

  For this garage, a house was demolished to create a mother-in-law garage.

   It’s not that Xu Daqiang doesn’t know anything about antiques…

  But there are some things...maybe it is a rare object in the eyes of Yanjing people, such as a horse-mounting stone and a horse-mounting stool, or even a certain millstone, which is left over from the Qing Dynasty.

   But the problem is that Xu Daqiang is from Shaanxi.

  Are you talking about antiques with Shaanxi people?

  Pay back the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China?

  Don't be funny.

  Xu Xin encountered more than a few antique dealers or cultural relic collectors when he was a child, and they went door to door to collect dishes and bowls.

   It may be an exaggeration to talk about the Han and Tang Dynasties, but the things of the Song and Ming Dynasties are really common.

   As for the Qing Dynasty?

  The Qing Dynasty deserves to be called an antique?

  It’s almost called second-hand goods.

  So, in this respect, when Xu Daqiang demolished the house, based on Xu Xin's understanding of his father, he must have a sense of superiority in his heart.

   And the reason for saying this is also very simple.

  When he was packing his things this morning, he went to the south to fear the acclimatization, so he remembered the box of millet his father had brought with him two days ago.

   This is the family's own factory, called Simeizi.

  Specialize in millet.

  Before the discovery of coal mines, millet in Shenmu was very famous in Shaanxi.

  Later, some friends of my father set up a factory to do this.

Xu Xin doesn't understand ecological planting of organic crops, but he just knows that his father voted for it because he wanted to eat a mouthful of millet noodles that tasted like childhood, or if someone in the village gave birth to a baby, he could eat a bite without mixing it. Sand millet porridge.

  The layer of rice oil on the top of millet porridge is known as fairy water in my hometown, and it is the best for children to drink.

  So I got this factory.

   Benefits don’t matter, the main thing is to eat with confidence.

  It is also a habit of my hometown to take some hometown millet to other places, which can prevent acclimatization. Uncomfortable with a bowl of millet porridge, keeping it is better than anything else.

   As a result, I walked to the garage and looked at the dusty Ferrari...

  Xu Xin was in a daze for a while.

  It was only in a trance that I remembered... Oh, it seems that I haven't spent any money for a long, long time.

  The cigarettes I smoke are boxes and boxes of Zhonghua at home.

  If there is no gift, Xu Xin estimates that he will have to smoke for at least a few years.

   Liquor is also free Moutai.

  Eating is in the cafeteria. There is a cafeteria in the Olympic Building, and there is also a cafeteria in the Qinglan Building. Even in the four schools, there are cafeterias.

  Even to refuel the car, he used the gas card issued by the team.

  No social interaction, no more entertainment...

   Then there is a salary of more than 6,000 a month.

   In a daze, Xu Xin himself forgot when was the last time he withdrew cash from his bank card.

  Full of emotion, he packed two big boxes of clothes, millet, and miscellaneous things, and rushed to the airport.

   Even feeling a little excited.

   Leaving aside that specious dream, if you really talk about it in detail... This is the first time Xu Xin has gone to the south.

   Before going to college, his trajectory was actually very monotonous.

   It is the generation of Shenmu, Fugu and EEDS.

   Then you may occasionally fly from Dongsheng to Xi'an to feel the prosperity of the "big city".

  But I have to admit that even in the same province, there are regional prejudices.

  When he entered the city with a northern Shaanxi accent, sometimes he could clearly feel the faint strange eyes of the people from southern Shaanxi.

  Indeed, before there were no coal resources, northern Shaanxi...was really synonymous with poverty.

   To put it bluntly.

  Even if you have money, you won’t spend it.

  Thinking about it now, before he came out at home, Xu Xin really felt that he was in this state.

   Then he came to Yanjing. After seeing the prosperity of a real metropolis, he lost the concept of north and south in his heart.

  What city is as good as Yanjing?

  But now I think about going to the south soon...

   For no reason, he was really excited.

   A little timid again.

   It's like the anxiety before taking the first step when embarking on an unknown journey.

  South.

  Jiangnan.

  Water town.

  I heard that girls are all white and soft, and they all speak Wu Nong's soft language...

   Maybe he fell in love with Yuan Shanshan at first sight because of the girl's soft words?

   While thinking about what to do, he smoked outside the airport.

   Pulling on the second stick, I heard a sound:

   "Xiao Xu."

  Turning his head to look, Xu Xin quickly shouted:

   "Sand guide."

  Head of lighting design, Sha Xiaofeng.

  Although the name has "small", but the age is not young, the industry is recognized as a master of large-scale stage lighting design.

  The change of the light color of the torch from incandescent white to bright yellow is this person's idea.

  After listening to what others said, Liu Mingsheng changed the color of the light bulb, and as expected, the silver auspicious cloud pattern against the light was even more gorgeous.

  Big Brother is a very nice person. Every day he sighs and says that if he continues to suffer like this, he will be bald.

   But when the main creator works overtime for meetings, he always holds a glass of wolfberry water on the seat.

   After saying hello, Xu Xin took the initiative to step forward to help Sha Xiaofeng pull the box.

   "No, I will do it myself."

  Sha Xiaofeng waved his hand, while Xu Xin took out the cigarette in his pocket:

   "Sand guide, smoke."

"Um."

  Sha Xiaofeng nodded, and after taking the Zhonghua Tobacco, he looked down at the label on the cigarette.

   After finding out that it was a three-letter prefix, he lowered his head and covered Xu Xin's hand to light the cigarette.

   "Why do you bring so many things?"

  Hearing his words, Xu Xin shook his head:

"Sister Wei said that she would stay for a few months, so she brought some more... everything from long sleeves to short sleeves. I also brought a few pairs of shoes... The main reason is that I have never been to the south, so I don't know what the weather is like there. I just got ready. I thought one box would be enough, but I didn’t think it would be enough, so I bought a new one temporarily.”

   "Have you never been to the South?"

  Sha Xiaofeng was a little surprised.

  He naturally knew that Xiao Xu's family conditions must not be bad.

   This is the first person to ask Xu Xin if this A6 is a V8 engine.

  This kid drives an A6 of over a million yuan at a young age, and every day is in China. How can this kid from a rich family never go to the South?

"right."

  Xu Xin nodded:

   "Really the first time."

   "Hiss~ Then you may suffer."

  Sha Xiaofeng shook his head:

   "The south is really not as comfortable as the north. There are so many mosquitoes in Hengdian... Hey, have you ever seen such a big mosquito?"

  He drew the outline of the belly of the little finger:

   "It's black, with white streaks on the black belly. When you bite someone, it swells up so much..."

   "..."

   Seeing his description, Xu Xin's cheeks suddenly began to twitch.

   Is this a mosquito?

   I'm afraid this is some kind of wasp?

   "Guide Sha...don't scare me..."

   "Why scare you..."

  Sha Xiaofeng rolled his eyes:

"You will know when you go there. Since April, there have been mosquitoes in the south...but the kind of mosquitoes I mentioned are rare now. I was bitten once or twice...but I listened to my father People of that generation said that when the four pests were eradicated in the 1960s, there were a lot of these things in the south."

  The two of them just started chatting about the mosquito inexplicably.

  Smoking while chatting.

   And when Xu Xin finished smoking the second one, Sha Xiaofeng also finished the first one.

  Xu Xin handed over another one:

   "Sand guide, another one, you have to enjoy it, otherwise it will take three or four hours from going through the security check to getting off the plane."

   "...We have a VIP room, don't you know?"

"…ah?"

  Seeing Xu Xin's dazed look, Sha Xiaofeng laughed:

   "Haha, you really don't know? Let's go by the car from the VIP room. You can smoke in the VIP room..."

   While talking, he did not refuse, took another one and lit it and said:

   "You'll know in a while. Director Zhang's fame is there, and if he appears in the public eye, people will definitely surround him, so let's go directly to the VIP room in a while."

   "That's it... This is the first time I've heard of it."

  Xu Xin shook his head:

   "I knew there was a smoking room inside, but didn't they say that it was canceled in order to improve the image of the city?"

   "Well, that's true. After all, it's the host city of the Olympics~"

   As Sha Xiaofeng was talking, he suddenly said:

   "Xiao Xu."

"You say."

   "I changed your cigarette later."

  Big Brother suddenly said something out of nowhere.

   "...?"

  Xu Xin was taken aback.

  I heard Sha Xiaofeng say:

   "Zhonghua at the beginning of the three prefix, a car worth more than one million yuan... Yes, it seems to be your personal financial conditions. But sometimes you have to look at the occasion. Let me ask you, what kind of cigarettes does Director Wang smoke?"

  Wang Dao is Dynasty Song.

   Among the lesbians, she is the only one who smokes.

  Xu Xin followed this question with a sentence:

   "Hard China."

   "That's right. Where's Director Fan?"

   "Hmm...it seems to be Yunyan?"

   "Where's Director Zhang?"

  Zhang Yimou does not smoke, so Director Zhang is talking about Zhang Wu.

   "Yuxi."

   "Hmm... did you find it?"

   Following his train of thought, Xu Xin gradually came to his senses.

   "Director Sha, you mean..."

"Hi."

  Sha Xiaofeng waved his hand:

"Although ours is not a public body, there are some things... we still need to pay attention to. You understand what I mean? I don't mean to make you wrong yourself, but there are some things, you still have to be careful. Of course, it's not that you don't Okay. It’s just that you may be used to it, so you don’t care about it. But don’t forget...your pack of cigarettes...sometimes catches up with other people’s daily wages. In the future, our people will, because the Olympic Games are getting closer, And become the focus of everyone's eyes. Your words and deeds, even every detail will be multiplied and magnified, and what we are advocating now is frugality, your bag of China... right?"

   There were some words that Sha Xiaofeng didn't get through.

  But Xu Xin understood.

   "I understand... Director Sha, you are right, it is indeed the case, then I understand."

  Seeing Xu Xin nodding his head, Sha Xiaofeng responded:

"Well. You're smart, clever, as long as you understand... Hey, that's how we are in this business. Usually, no one cares about what you do in private. But when it comes to public image, especially when we are now positioned in That's it. The budget itself is not much, and everyone is saving this breath. If they want to rely on the Olympics to drive the economy to take off, they must pay attention when they need to be careful. Do it right, and don't be afraid of the shadow. But the problem is that people You're sick when you poke goo, too, right?"

   "Well, yes, that's true."

  Xu Xin, who understood all the meaning of the other party, said gratefully:

   "Thank you, Director Sha, if you don't remind me, maybe I haven't paid attention yet."

   "Hey, what is this~hahaha~"

   While chatting, other people appeared at the airport gate one after another.

   After asking, I found out that Director Zhang and the others wanted to avoid commotion. After all, countless media wanted to interview him now... so they assembled first, then went through the formalities, and went directly to the small path, and they had already entered.

   Several people didn't stop when they heard it.

  Anyway, compared to Director Zhang, those who rushed over from home are just a group of "unknown people".

   Without any psychological pressure, everyone walked into the airport and passed the security check.

  But when Xu Xin passed the security check, something went wrong.

  The person at the checkpoint inspected the tickets and said to him:

   "Sir, there is something wrong with your luggage, please go to the luggage inspection gate to have a look."

"…has a problem?"

  Xu Xin was taken aback for a moment, waved to everyone, and walked to the luggage area.

   Then I saw my newly bought box.

  Opening the box and checking...he knew what was wrong with him.

  Inexplicably, there are two more lighters in my luggage.

  God knows how he casually threw these two lighters into the box when he was packing his luggage.

  After taking out the lighter, he checked it again, and after confirming that it was OK, he walked back to the security checkpoint.

   This time he went through the security check without any surprise, and then saw the crowd waiting for him.

  Xu Xin was naturally flattered. After explaining about the luggage, everyone chatted and laughed, led by Sha Xiaofeng, to the VIP lounge.

  I also saw Zhang Yimou and the others who were drinking tea and waiting inside.

   After waiting for a while, it was time to board the plane.

  Xu Xin and Wei Lanfang, the people in economy class, left first.

  Although Xu Xin can upgrade by himself, this is obviously not the time to treat them differently.

   Following the crowd is the right choice.

  Leaders take business class, and soldiers take economy class.

  The business class that was supposed to board the plane first was put in the back, also because of Zhang Yimou and his identities.

   They are the last to get on the plane, and they go first when they get off the plane, so as to avoid being surrounded by movie fans and fans to the greatest extent.

  No words all the way.

  At almost 5 o'clock in the afternoon, everyone arrived in Hengdian.

  Hengdian's airport is not big, but it looks very busy.

  By the time Xu Xin and the others got out of the cabin, Zhang Yimou and the others were already out of sight.

   But it doesn't matter, the car at the airport exit goes to the hotel together.

  Xu Xin followed the team to get the luggage, while thinking about how to play a prank to scare Yang Mi.

  Standing in front of the conveyor belt and thinking about it, his spirit slipped a bit.

   At this point, the conveyor belt is turned on.

   Xu Xin, who hadn't recovered his spirit, saw a pitch-black box.

   It is the same as the one I bought.

   Without thinking too much, I took it down.

  Then waited for a while, and after getting another box, the others also took their suitcases.

   Go all the way to the exit.

   Walked out of the airport entrance... Suddenly, a sense of stuffiness hit.

  Hengdian seems to have just rained?

   A hot and humid feeling directly hit Xu Xin in the head...

So hot…

   At this time, there are two beeps.

   Wei Lanfang turned his head and saw the Golden Dragon.

   "The car is there, let's go."

  Following her words, everyone, including Xu Xin, followed the team, packed their luggage, and got into the car.

  The car slowly left the airport exit.

   Looking at everything unfamiliar in front of him, Xu Xin had a slight curiosity in his eyes.

here…

   is Hengdian?

   And just when he was looking out the window with curious eyes.

  The short-haired middle-aged man on the same flight as him walked out of the toilet in some pain, looked at the location of the baggage claim, and quickened his pace.
