Chapter 228 ‘Dirty Deal’

In this world, scumbags have only one natural enemy.

child.

They have big eyes and short limbs. Because they can't walk, they crawl around and urinate everywhere.

Scientific research says that men love children because they do not need to participate in the parenting process. Li Shuan 100% agrees with this view, because among all parents, if there is one creature that is bound to appear, it must be children.

Children are the source of trouble, the fuse of all conflicts, the engine of divorce, and the catalyst for the disintegration of a couple's relationship.

As a 100% unmarried girl, Liu Shishi was confused about Li Suan's questions. First she talked about trash, and then she asked her about her attitude towards her children. What should she discuss next? Should she choose the location of her grandson's wedding room when he gets married?

"I have no attitude towards children, but they are cute, aren't they?" She replied tentatively, and then she saw disdain in Li Suan's eyes.

"All cute creatures are actually dangerous." Li Shuan warned solemnly.

"How is that possible?" Shishi Liu has a teacup dog. That little thing is so cute.

Li Suan knew that talking more was useless, but Liu Shishi's lack of attitude was the best answer. Using Liu Shishi to influence Yang Mi's decision to have a child was the best solution at present. After all, his image in front of Yang Mi was that of a perfect man.

, it’s better not to say “don’t want children” at a time when it’s still relatively traditional.

"Let's have dinner with Director Lu Yang first, and then we can talk in depth after the meal."

Is it simple for Li Shu to invite Director Lu Yang to dinner?

Very simply, Xu Shanzheng was not the only one who invested in 21 Network. He also attracted Ning Hao. The two of them held 30% of the shares of 21 Network hand in hand. The box office is equal to the stock market. These two are in the circle.

The first person in the film, and "Crazy Aliens", "I'm Not the God of Medicine", "A Good Show", etc., all have the shadow of 21 Network behind them.

Pure film and television investment returns are low and the payback period is long, but if it can be combined with the stock market to usher in a double harvest, wouldn't it be good for him and me?

Director Lu Yang is the person of director Ning Hao, and building a relationship with him is equivalent to building a relationship with Ning Hao for Li Suan. By the way, he can use his rich professional knowledge to impress Liu Shishi, a young actor, and let her have a good experience in the industry.

'The evil forces'.

In this way, when she wants to refuse her request, she has to think carefully.

After Li Suan and Liu Shishi arrived at the private restaurant, less than an hour later, director Lu Yang arrived. He came from a serious academic background, and his debut work won international awards, including his debut "Blind Film Actor"

, won awards in Busan, South Korea, and Kazan, Russia, and in the same year, won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Director's Debut.

In addition, in five years, he will direct the movie "The Assassination of Novelists".

Lu Yang was surprised by Li Suan's sudden visit, but it was originally a temporary dinner party between the two of them, and Liu Shishi was suddenly included. Director Lu Yang understood it instantly.

"This guy Li is so scumbag that he is so inhumane."

"Shishi's performance was good, which surprised me." Director Lu Yang said politely during the dinner.

Li Suan smiled politely and said, "Director Lu Yang, you are too polite."

Li Suan's performance is like a bastard. It's all the credit of Director Lu Yang. Director Lu Yang taught him well. I just gave him some pointers on his acting skills... According to Liu Shishi, most of Li Suan's words meant this.

, she is so angry, you Li have helped, but I have to do the performance by myself, okay?

During the dinner, she also wanted to prove herself, but Li Shuan told Director Lu Yang about her play, and it was a complete play.

"Zhou Miaotong will fall in love with Shen Lian in the end. She first resents Shen Lian for being used as a prostitute, and then uses Shen Lian's compassion to get a document from the Ministry of Justice to redeem her life. Finally, because her lover is caught, she asks Shen Lian to to save,

But what she didn't expect was that her lover was already determined to die, and Shen Lian, a straight man, would not lie to others when he came back to life.

In the end, through an assassination, Zhou Miaotong finally realized that in this evil old society, only Shen Lian could protect herself. This strong feeling of being protected and a man willing to sacrifice his life for himself was the main reason why Zhou Miaotong fell in love with Shen Lian. reason. "

Listening to Li Suan's eloquent words, Liu Shishi always felt that his words had other intentions and were threatening him.

But Li Shuan said these words just to tell Director Lu Yang that he had read the complete script and knew the play very well and could find topics to talk about.

Director Lu Yang looked at Li Suan very seriously: "Teacher Li, in your opinion, what is the ultimate expression of our play?"

"Xiu Chun Knife" is a very strange movie, especially the first one. It looks very scattered. There is brotherhood, love, and martial arts scenes, but it is just chaotic. The mistakes made by Director Lu Yang are very common in the industry. , that is, the theme is not obvious.

The entertainment industry seems to be in trouble, but the review process for literary and artistic works is very strict. For example, Li Shuan's "I Want" focuses on the courage of young people in love, and Lu Yang's "Xiuchungdao" "But nothing is highlighted in it.

On loyalty: Shen Lian, played by Zhang Zhen, puts his brothers in danger for love. On love: Shen Lian is like a licking dog in front of Zhou Miaotong. On martial arts drama: "Xiu Chun Dao" is indeed worthy of praise, but making a movie specifically for martial arts dramas is already on the top of the list. centuries old almanac.

The story of "Xiu Chun Knife" is indeed enjoyable to watch. The fighting is intensive and there is no suspense. The mysterious position of Jin Yiwei was chosen, but the Chinese scene in the play is crotchless. It can be seen that Director Lu Yang wanted to respect history and film political events. Poland is weird, but because it needs to be easy for the audience to understand, it can’t be too obscure.

Due to various factors, the themes are scattered, which is a common disease of Chinese directors.

Li Suan's answer was quite informative: "Little people, big events, the story of "Xiu Chun Knife" is good. It can be seen that Director Lu Yang has put a lot of effort into the camera and action scenes, but the biggest problem is that these things are all That’s not what you meant.”

Director Lu Yang was suffocated and looked at Li Suan with warm eyes.

Li Suan continued: "You must have often heard a saying in school, film is a kind of expression. People in the industry say that film is the expression of the director. What exactly do you want to say in "Xiu Chun Knife"?

The martial arts life of Jin Yiwei? Or the love story between Jin Yiwei and a prostitute? Is it the brotherhood between Jin Yiwei? Or do you simply want to tell the life of Jin Yiwei? Does this life need to be exciting, have fighting, and make the audience love watching... Director Yang, don’t you feel uncomfortable?”

Director Lu Yang's slightly weird face was tense. He looked a bit like Fat Tou Tuo in Jordan Chan's version of "The Deer and the Cauldron". At this time, he was frowning slightly. This was not because he was angry, but because he was right. Worry.

Li Suan took a sip of tea and continued: "But it's not your fault. I understand. Investors want you to protect your capital. The audience expects good stories. What is good? Big scenes, big productions, like explosions. 'Peng', they want to watch it for fun, something simpler and more pure, but can this kind of thing be called a movie?"

"yes!"

Lu Yang interrupted Li Suan and slapped the table. Li Suan's evaluation was neither good nor bad, which made Director Lu Yang think he had met someone he knew.

Li Suan continued: "It is difficult for us literary and art workers, because there are policies from above and requirements from below. We are caught in the middle, just like daughters-in-law. We can't violate the above, and we can't refute the ones below. We want to make a meal that everyone can enjoy.

, and the food is praised, so I can only embarrass myself."

"Yes, as expected of a writer, your description is so right! Come on, come on, we must have a drink."

Director Lu Yang turned around and called the waiter. Wine must be served today!

What about Li Suan?

Still smiling and being polite.

In fact, the story mode of "Xiu Chun Knife" is a standard small character involved in a big event, but director Lu Yang couldn't make it that simple.

The drama has been completed, and Li Shuan’s next words are the suggestions.

He said: "Director, when it comes to brotherhood, I have some suggestions. Pheasant Ho-nam is out of date, but we can change it a little bit. We might as well add some more important parts to the duplicitous jokes. Try to add some literary and dramatic elements.

Complexity, after all, you are filming a political incident such as the assassination of Wei Zhongxian, so it’s a little circuitous, but that’s okay.”

Li Suan's words seemed to be giving advice, but in fact he didn't say anything, because the filming had already started, and Director Lu Yang would not change it even if he could, because the investment was too large, and if he changed it, it would affect the overall situation.

This is just like Li Suan once having a meeting with the editors. The directions proposed by the other parties were all good, but it was Li Suan who did the work.

Of course, when it comes to talking, you can say whatever you like, after all, you don’t do the work yourself.

After dinner, Director Lu Yang insisted on dragging Li Suan to the crew hotel. The two wanted to have a long talk, but Li Suan refused to go. If Director Lu Yang got excited again, he would be detained on the crew to revise the script.

.

In fact, it's not that Li Shuan likes to tear up this script, but he has no choice. At this time when China Entertainment is growing wildly, all scripts should be torn up except for the internationally famous ones.

After sending Director Lu Yang to the car, Li Suan and Liu Shishi said confidently: "Believe it or not, when I see Director Ning Hao again, he will definitely know me."

Liu Shishi accompanied her at the dinner, but she didn't want to say a good word about Li Suan. When Li Suan was talking to Lu Yang, she gradually understood what Li Suan wanted to say to her.

"What you want to tell me is that this is neither good nor bad?"

Li Shuan thought for a while and carefully organized his words: "Yes, to put it more plainly, everyone thinks very well. If you think you are a scumbag, you can change your identity. If you find a man, you will be a scumbag. But there is a cost to change.

of."

Shishi Liu's mood is a bit low, and I don't blame her. The education we received since childhood is that I can become anyone, but it turns out that some people can't become anyone. We were taught that it is glorious to engage in any profession since childhood, but it turns out that glory is always only

Belongs to a small group of people.

Li Suan glanced at Liu Shishi. Although he was a little soft-hearted, he still had to use it. He asked: "Don't you want to be a scumbag?"

Liu Shishi shook his head silently. Logically speaking, with Li Shuan's more than ten years of experience as a scumbag, how could he not know that Wu Jiaqilong's influence on her was not that exaggerated?

But the problem is, if Wu Jiaqilong really breaks up with her, it doesn't matter if others don't know about the future, Li Shuan knows it. Wu Jiaqilong is not Liu Shishi's destination, then who is her destination?

Yourself?

Are you kidding me...if you think about such a good thing, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously, even if Liu Shi's disciple looks very good.

Li Suan gave a loyal suggestion: "It's impossible for you to be a scumbag, but you can make a compromise."

Shishi Liu looked up.

"You know Tea? She is the perfect wife in the eyes of men and the scheming bitch in the eyes of women."

The word "tea" also has historical origins. In modern times, it specifically refers to people who don't mean what they say. On the surface, they are moral saints, but secretly they have other agendas.

Unlike Yang Mi, who is an upright goblin, Cha seems to be a lower rank, but he is the kind of person who can behave even if he gets the goblin.

"I probably know something about it." Liu Shishi said dullly, "What should I do instead?"

Li is happy, just have a plan. Only when you have a plan can we discuss business, right?

The department store was bustling with people.

The fourth floor specializes in children's clothing and toys, and there is a warm atmosphere with warm yellow lights everywhere.

Liu Shishi and Li Suan sat on the bench for rest, each with an egg roll, and then looked at the young parents on the entire floor, competing with their children.

"Look, can you get this? Yang Mi is not a parent. She doesn't know that food, rice, oil and salt are expensive. It's not easy to feed a child. She is a four-legged gold-eating beast."

Listening to Li Suan's complaint, Liu Shishi said, "Aren't you short of money?"

"It doesn't matter before. Do you know how things will change after this thing appears in your home? For example, when Yang Mi comes home and doesn't have children, she says, 'Baby, I'm back.' When she has children, that's it."

"Child, mother is back, isn't this scary?"

Liu Shishi didn't understand what Li Shuan was saying: "Is this terrible?"

"Language is the reflection of a person's heart. Whoever you speak to first will be the one you care about the most. Whom you care about the most you will ask first. And most importantly, if a woman regards herself as a mother, she will grow old very quickly.

You said that in the love life of two people, it is enough for me and you, why do you have to add a child?

Do you know how many unnatural things humans can do in order to get pregnant? What onlookers see is warmth, but those who experience it are suffering from human tragedy..."

There was a burst of crying. It was a child who was confronting his parents again. He refused to buy what he wanted. The child rolled on the ground without hesitation, which made the parents very anxious.

Li Shuan pointed in that direction to Shishi Liu and said, "Look, can I get one like this? Moreover, scientific research shows that parents with children age quickly, and it doesn't matter how much money they spend on maintenance."

"How do you know your child won't be obedient? Look over there, how wonderful it is."

Shishi Liu pointed in another direction. The little girls followed their mother quietly. Some of them were still wearing dance clothes, as if they were going to participate in extracurricular training.

"Impossible, my daughter must be the Demon King."

Liu Shishi looked at it: "Why?"

"Because her father is me, and all daughters are like their father. If you look at Yang Mi's character, can you have this child? As long as you do me this favor, I will pass on my lifelong skills to you and make you want to be a scumbag.

Just scum, you can have tea if you want, as long as you can convince Yang Mi not to have children!"
