Chapter 34 ‘Director Yang’

In his previous life, Li Shuan might have had that childish dream only when he dreamed back at midnight.

He dreamed of becoming a great screenwriter and writing works that would satisfy the world. Later, he dreamed of making a huge fortune and having everyone look at him with envy and admiration. Finally, he gave up, thinking that his life would last only a few decades.

Come on, be happy every day.

From that day on, his health indicators, creative status, and artistic pursuits all deteriorated visibly.

After returning from rebirth, Li Suan didn't want to do anything else, but he didn't want to fall. Although it was fun to get along with those little assistants, he knew very well what the price would be.

So, he didn't want to do it anymore.

Director Yang thought for a while and shouted: "Nine? Nine!"

Brother Jiu came in: "Director, please call me."

"Get a room for Li Suan and I'll talk to him later."

Brother Jiu smiled like a flower: "Okay, I'm going to tell the whole team now that we won't be filming tonight!"

Brother Jiu ran out, came back, and said carelessly: "Director, do you want to arrange a girl?"

Director Yang said angrily: "Get out!"

…

There is a hotel inside the China Film Base. It has a poor reputation, poor service, but is extremely expensive. The entire hotel is modeled after a dormitory in the 1980s. It looks like it from the outside, and even more so when you move in. Brother Jiu is holding a washbasin.

Towels, I talked with the lady at the canteen downstairs and bought all the toiletries.

If you don't say that your character is guaranteed, even if you have a net worth of tens of millions, you still have to abide by the rules when you are here.

What rules?

Business hours, 9am to 5pm.

A standard room was opened to Li Suan. There was no concept of an executive suite. Teacher Zhang lived in one of the best rooms, Director Yang's female assistant lived in another, and the rest were for Brother Jiu to spend the night.

"How about you stay at my place?" Brother Jiu reciprocated the favor. To this day, he still feels that Li Shuan persuaded Director Yang, "It's nothing you want, it's inconvenient."

"Brother Jiu, I didn't help much either."

"Then you stay here for now. I'll bring Director Yang here later. What do you want to drink?"

Li Shuan wanted to refuse the drink, but when it arrived he said, "Whatever."

"Understood. We'll be back soon!"

Brother Jiu said and went out. Li Shuan was alone in the room, bored.

It is said that drunkenness makes people cowardly, but there are also people who tell the truth after drinking. Li came here for a request, and of course he would not refuse something that could help him get the answer.

In his previous life, Li Shuan, who was still a screenwriter's assistant, had heard too many legendary stories about Director Yang. One of them was later told by Director Yang himself.

It is said that when we were filming in the past, there was a female artist in the crew. She complained to Director Yang about her husband's work. Director Yang was so high-spirited that he waved his hand and it was done. Only later did we find out that the husband of this female artist was

, turned out to be a foreigner.

Director Yang couldn't figure out whether he was from Iceland, Denmark, or Italy. Anyway, there was a language barrier and different ideas. There was no other way. Who knew that Director Yang had found the person himself? He could only hold his nose and admit it.

This foreigner was a photographer and was given a salary of 30,000 yuan. He did not work every day and just stayed on the set. He used a DV to take pictures of people, equipment, and scenery every day. In the end, Director Yang felt that he was not

When it was time to invite someone to leave, the foreigner came with his wife and asked her to ask a question.

"Director Yang, have you ever seen an excavator take a bath?"

In the DV, the small screen is playing what the foreigner has photographed. As the sun sets, the excavators who have been working all day are parked on the river bank. The huge bucket scoops up a bucket of water, and then goes to another excavator.

On the plane, the bag head was poured down.

There are no photography techniques, no deliberate arrangements, no fiction and exaggeration. The industrial metallic texture comes across, and the water stains remaining on the excavator shine in the sunset.

Director Yang immediately changed the script and asked the dark-skinned actor to stand under the excavator and take a bath with this cold machine. Taking a bath alone is not enough, but also when the cold water is poured on the head, the body is stimulated by the cold water.

Rhythmic swing.

Let's just call it dance, but it is a wild, primitive dance. The background is the cold industrial machinery, and in the distance is the warm light of the setting sun.

Human nature, machinery, dance.

Original, transformed, instinctive.

All the above elements are integrated into the same fragment.

This film with the theme of migrant workers seems to have won some awards, but it failed miserably at the box office, but Director Yang has no regrets at all. He treated it as a joke and told everyone that the 30,000 yuan was so worth it.

Li Shuan didn't understand it at the time, and he doesn't understand it now. He took out his mobile phone and connected to the WIFI, trying to find the film that Director Yang had shot, but before he could find it, Director Yang and Brother Jiu came.

The first thing Director Yang said when he walked in: "Everyone, take out your cell phones."

Li Suan was stunned and didn't understand: "Director, why should I record this?"

Director Yang didn't say much. He just said "hey" twice, which meant he wanted to take it or not.

Li Suan took out his cell phone, turned it off like Brother Jiu, and put it together with Director Yang's.

Director Yang took out the wine brought by Brother Jiu, opened it first, took a few sips from the teapot provided in the standard room, and then asked Brother Jiu for a cigarette, but after quitting for too many years, he couldn't stop smoking.

He coughed, and finally gave up, staring at Li Suan, as if he could see flowers on his face.

"Have you read any novels about cultivating immortals?"

Director Yang's words stunned Li Suan: "Have you seen it?"

"Don't lie, tell the truth! Do you know what a world is?"

"I know, just like in the field, in my place, you have to listen to me."

"Then do you hope that your world will have good weather, or that disasters will continue year after year?"

Li Suan said: "Let the weather be smooth."

"No," Director Yang said, "Tell the truth."

Li Suan was happy: "Then I will be the only one to dominate."

Director Yang said: "By the way, the world where you are the only one to dominate is your art."

"ah?"

"No, I thought about it all the way before I figured out what you can understand at your age. Art is not even explained accurately in the encyclopedia. To be honest, it is an ideal state. What is art? You don't have this question.

No, what you should ask is yourself, what is your art?"

Director Yang continued: "When you are in love and break up, it is the art of breaking up. If you chase whomever you want to chase, if you catch up with them, and the person you chase is comfortable, it is the art of striking up a conversation."

Director Yang's words made Brother Jiu dumbfounded. He didn't want to tell anyone about it. If word spread, Director Yang's reputation would be lost for the rest of his life.

Brother Jiu thought for a while and said suggestively: "Director Yang, that's not what you said. If you really want to do that, then there is the art of heart-to-heart talk with a young lady."

Director Yang said: "Why not? If you don't get caught, if you don't get sick, it's art! There are people who make money by talking!"

Li Suan coughed: "Director, I'm off topic."

Director Yang looked at Li Suan: "Let me ask you, how do you feel about watching my play?"

How to answer this?

"Don't think about it, just say it."

"The flood flooded."

Director Yang smiled: "I know you don't like it."

Li Shuan chuckled: "It's not that I don't like it, my water is not water, it's love. Your drama is about family affairs, so the strongest thing is love. In your eyes, life should be a net, and you are netted."

Those who are together are a family. Yes, if we are crowded together, the net will break and the fish will run away, and that person will have to face loneliness alone."

Director Yang was a little surprised.

"It's okay, you kid. Why didn't you tell me earlier? Those descriptions I just made made you look so low-level."

Li Suan smiled, very inappropriately, but he smiled.

Director Yang also smiled: "Drink something?"

"good."

Brother Jiu didn't know what these two artists and psychos were laughing at, so he also raised his glass and came over, "Drink some."
