I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

Chapter 363 361. So outrageous

Liu Yifei.

He was at his peak when he debuted, and people in the world called him: Xiao Liu Zhishi.

Liu Shishi.

After her debut, she inherited the halo of her cousin and was known as Xiao Liu Yifei.

At that time, the Tang Dynasty wanted to sign Liu Yifei, but was wasted by Liu Xiaoli and Chen Jinfei. They spent a lot of resources and didn't even get a drink of soup. This is still talked about today.

But after she didn't sign the contract with Tang Ren, dirt on Liu Yifei began to fly all over the place.

The most hilarious thing at the beginning was the rumor created by the famous mouthpiece Song Quede, saying that Liu Yifei was a transgender.

As a result, the show was called "Today's Statement".

But there is actually nothing right or wrong about this.

The entertainment industry is not a charity. If you provoke me, I can’t fight back?

At that time, the Tang Dynasty was really prepared to wait for Liu Yifei to come over, and then devote a lot of resources to making her and Hu Stubble the top artists of the young generation.

At least that's the case in the TV drama industry.

And Tangren does have this ability in the field of TV dramas.

As a result, momentum was created, resources were given, but people didn't wait, and things that were promised were reneged on. If Tangren didn't take any action, people would feel easy to bully.

Liu Yifei really fooled people here.

There's not much to say about this.

Tang Ren is a big company, and Liu Yifei also has a godfather who is famous on the Hurun Fortune List.

After several attempts were made on both sides in that era, and after finally finding that no one could do anything to the other, the Tang people began to embark on the path of "copycat".

If you can't find the real Liu Yifei, then find a fake one and speculate on Liu Yifei's popularity.

Thus, Liu Zhishi came into being.

As for Liu Zhishi, she actually doesn't like having her debut as Liu Yifei's cousin.

But Tangren didn't tell her this before she signed the contract. And after signing the contract, the contract is with Tang Ren, so she is even less qualified to say this.

It just so happens that copycats have become popular in the past two years since she debuted.

What Master Kong, Master Kang? The phenomenon of King of Kings Ham Sausage and Wang Zhongyu Ham Sausage is extremely common. Everyone has a high tolerance for copycats, except for real Liu Yifei fans, who began to resist Liu Zhishi after confirming that she was not Liu Yifei's cousin.

In the eyes of ordinary people...an actor who is no less beautiful than Liu Yifei...

No one will be stingy about giving some attention.

Therefore, in some aspects, Liu Zhishi's acting style is quite smooth.

Shunshun Dangdang acted in "Sword of Immortal", gained a lot of attention, and had many dramas... Moreover, Liu Yifei's popularity has dropped drastically in the past two years. People have been asking her about Liu Yifei since her debut. But from Since this year, basically no one has asked.

People in the Tang Dynasty also understood that it was impossible to truly recommend a person by relying on copycats.

Not to mention that the person who was copied now also has yellow mud on his feet.

So I started to consciously avoid this aspect.

I want to really push Liu Zhishi out.

As for the two actors, although they have been inextricably linked since their debut, when it comes to meeting... today is really the first time.

Is it embarrassing?

so awkward.

Liu Yifei looked at Liu Zhishi and thought about the house I bought. I hadn’t lived in it for a few years. When I came back, I found that a family of three had already lived in it. They had also renovated it. When faced with my questioning, the other party still confidently said that this was their house. ...this sense of déjà vu.

My home was stolen.

When Liu Zhishi looked at Liu Yifei, her thoughts were more complicated.

She is actually not very ambitious.

When facing Liu Yifei, there is no unnecessary guilt like "I stole the wealth that should belong to you."

But something more absurd.

"I should be under the car, not in the car. It's so sweet to see you~"

Huh?

Who is singing?

Just when Liu Zhishi was still in a daze, Yang Mi's voice rang out:

"You guys, stop fighting~"

"..."

"...?"

The two of them looked at their mutual friend who was looking over with a smile.

I saw her sitting on the bed, looking anxious:

"You are all my wings~"

"????"

What does it mean?

In an instant, the two people's thoughts were somewhat interrupted.

However, Liu Yifei, who opened the door, came to her senses and got out of the way.

Liu Zhishi nodded politely and walked in.

After passing Liu Yifei, she looked at Mimi and the two little guys, and the smile on her face began to bloom like a flower:

"Auntie is here, let Auntie take a look~"

Walking closer, looking at the baby wearing a small hat of two colors, one blue and one pink, Liu Zhishi sat directly above the child's head, stretched his head, carefully observed the two children for a moment, and said:

"Nuan Nuan is like Xu Xin, and Yang Yang is like you."

Hearing this, Liu Yifei, who was sitting on the chair nearby, couldn't help but roll her eyes slightly.

My heart says you are quite blind.

Both children obviously look like Mimi.

Yang Mi nodded with a smile:

"I think so... did you meet Xu Xin when you came here just now?"

"I met him. He's outside greeting guests. He's very busy welcoming and delivering guests."

"Well, let's sit at a table for a while. The food on this table is a small stove. Although the dishes are all the same, there are more beef, mutton, fish and seafood. As for the meat dishes, you can't eat only the braised pork. I won't even eat the other meat dishes. They didn’t even let them go... There were a lot of guests, so I had no choice but to come here. If it’s not halal, don’t pick on me.”

Hearing this, Liu Zhishi felt a little proud for no reason.

Don't know why.

But the smile is indeed brighter:

"Well, I don't have to choose. Today is the big day for these two little guys."

"Hey...are you okay after dinner?"

"No, I came here just for you today. I won't leave until tomorrow."

"What about uncle and aunt?"

"I came back last night... just tell me what you want to do."

"Xu Xin will definitely have to drink at noon, and his brothers will probably have to drink too much. In the afternoon, you two can go home with me for a while. I'm going to vomit in the confinement center."

"Well……"

Liu Zhishi glanced at Liu Yifei subconsciously.

Liu Yifei nodded first:

"Okay. Just...I'm quite curious about the role you auditioned for, and I want to see how you prepare for it."

As soon as she agreed, Liu Zhishi nodded:

"OK."

"Well, my two beloved concubines have agreed..."

Yang Mi's tone was full of pride.

The man also smiled and narrowed his eyes, pretending to be majestic:

"In the afternoon, I will have a good time playing with the two beloved concubines in the water. I'm afraid I won't be able to attend the morning meeting tomorrow~"

"..."

"..."

The two of them were speechless.

But they can all feel that Mimi actually wants to be a bridge so that the two of them can get acquainted with each other.

It was also very painstaking.

It's just...can you please stop using such an ambiguous title.

It's quite exciting though...

Liu Zhishi thought secretly.

At this time, Yang Mi's phone rang.

She took a look and connected:

"Hey, Uncle Xu."

"Oh, Mimi, there are almost a lot of people here now. The seats are almost full. I asked Xu Xin to find you. Let's hold the baby together and come out for everyone to see."

"Okay, let me clean it up."

"Uh-huh."

When the phone hung up, Liu Yifei had already pushed out the double-basket stroller in the corner.

Liu Zhishi also stood up, planning to see if there was anything he could help with.

Then he asked curiously:

"You haven't changed your tune yet?"

"no."

Yang Mi picked up her eldest daughter and put her in the stroller while saying:

"We didn't hold a ceremony, we didn't pay any money to change our words, so we can't shout. Xu Xin didn't change his words either. Only when we have a correct name can we keep our words correct."

"You both have received your certificates."

"Getting the certificate is getting the certificate. According to the ancient rules, three letters and six betrothals, this means that the marriage contract has been finalized. I am the daughter-in-law of the Xu family, but I haven't married yet. So I can't shout yet."

"Oh~"

Liu Zhishi nodded:

"So that's it~"

…

Xu Xin definitely can't escape the matter of full moon wine and drinking.

Because whether the people coming are elders from his father-in-law and mother-in-law's family, friends of his father, or some colleagues, as the head of the family, he will definitely not do it without a toast today.

There's no feast without wine.

The main job of him and Yang Mi is to go from table to table, push the baby to a table, everyone sends blessings to the two little guys, and then holds the wine cup, regardless of whether the other party is drinking or drinking. , he had to politely say "poor hospitality" and offer everyone a glass of wine. Yang Mi was also accompanied by a tall glass filled with mineral water.

He was accompanied by Lang Lang and others, and beside Yang Mi were Liu Zhishi and Liu Yifei.

The combination of these people is actually "quite strange".

Especially when many people see Liu Zhishi and Liu Yifei in the same frame...

But fortunately, the limelight today belongs to Xu Xin and Yang Mi.

Here are two kids.

Room after room toasted, table after table said festive words.

Sea banquet guests.

Although the process is tedious, it is really fun to be happy.

Although every time they went to a certain box, Xu Xin and Yang Mi felt very distressed that their children had smoked second-hand smoke...

But there is no way to be picky in this situation.

Fortunately, people such as Zhang Yimou and Zhao Benshan also know how to be considerate of young couples.

I was very worried about the child. After the couple finished toasting, they hurriedly rushed out.

Don't expose your child to secondhand smoke for too long.

The same goes for outside guests. Although you may be relatives, classmates, or friends with the young couple.

But there is no way to talk in detail or in depth on this occasion.

No matter whether you want to make friends or do whatever you want, it is not something you should use on this day.

So when Xu Xin and Yang Mi came to toast, everyone gave their blessings, and then watched the couple push their children away with their own thoughts. Then I felt a little sad...

Obviously a few years ago, we were still classmates.

Obviously a few years ago, Xiao Xu was still a young man in his early twenties.

But now...it doesn't matter whether it's status or fame.

It’s all about being a parent.

At this time...tsk tsk, I really don't wait for anyone.

After a set of procedures is completed, the family can finally sit at their own table and start eating.

Before starting to toast, Wang Sicong found two boxes of particularly thick yogurt.

Eat it together with the two small cakes handed over by Lang Lang.

Um.

Gryffindor adds one point.

Jay Chou looks like a big fool...

In the ICU assessment, Ravenclaw received ten points.

After sitting down, Xu Xin, who had drunk a lot of wine, immediately stayed away from his wife and children to prevent the smell of alcohol from suffocating his precious daughter, and took the sea cucumber and millet porridge from Jay Chou...

Um.

Ravenclaw adds five points.

"What time will our flight leave tomorrow?"

Yang Mi asked.

Wang Sicong shrugged:

"Whatever time it is, whatever time you say."

"Then just wake up in the morning and you won't be in such a hurry."

"Okay. What should we do this afternoon?"

"I'll go home and sleep."

Xu Xin said without raising his head:

"I drink this wine so fast, I will definitely get drunk after a while. I won't care about you."

A few people didn't have any objections.

Today is my buddy’s big day.

…

"Xiao Xu, let's leave first."

"Ah? Sister Wei, so fast? Have you eaten yet?"

"You're done eating. Hurry up and eat your...Mimi, let's go first. See you later."

"Okay, Sister Wei, can I see you off?"

"No, no, why are you so polite..."

…

"Xu Xin, Mimi, let's go~"

"Oh, have you finished eating? Why are you walking so fast?"

…

"Director Xu, congratulations on your welcome to your family, I will leave first..."

"Hey..."

…

After a meal, Xu Xin started to greet people again.

Guests come to say hello as if they were just showing up. Everyone who comes has to leave a few words of blessing, then say hello to the couple and leave.

Xu Xin simply stopped eating and started seeing off guests at the door.

Yang Mi had to eat well because of her health.

What's more, she is chatting with Yu Chenghui at the moment.

He and his family are solely responsible for seeing off guests.

After sending off all my former colleagues, classmates, relatives, and friends, including Director Zhang and others, the entire hall was empty.

The waiters have already started clearing the tables.

This full moon drink is over.

"belch."

Xu Xin burped, and his steps were a little messy.

The wine was really starting to hit me now.

Fortunately, the three brothers were by his side, protecting the two children and supporting him.

In a daze, he got into the car and didn't know anything else.

He had the impression that someone called him, and then he was helped to the bed.

Finally, consciousness completely darkened.

…

After Wang Sicong and the others helped Xu Xin get home, they left.

Mainly because Yang Mi had Liu Zhishi and Liu Yifei here, plus Xu Daqiang, Xu Miao, Yang Dalin and his wife, and Sun Ting, the house was a little crowded for a while.

The three brothers didn't join in the fun either.

Lang Lang had just returned from abroad. A few people made a plan and found a club to get a massage, take a bath, and fight a landlord. It should be a safe thing, so they got up and left.

And since the children have parents to take care of them, Yang Mi can be temporarily relieved.

He took Liu Zhishi and Liu Yifei to the study.

"Give."

A thick notebook was handed to Liu Yifei.

Liu Zhishi also came over to take a look.

"Is this... what Xu Xin said, the audition you prepared for?"

After hearing Liu Yifei's words, Liu Zhishi asked in confusion:

"What audition?"

"you do not know?"

Liu Yifei was a little surprised that she was able to communicate normally even though it was not a heart-to-heart talk after just one meal.

"I don't know...what are you talking about?"

"Xu Xin told me that Mimi has prepared an audition and has been preparing for a year. Is it this role?"

"One year???Audition???"

Under Liu Zhishi's surprised gaze, Yang Mi nodded:

"Well, that's it."

"An audition? A year of preparation?"

Liu Zhishi couldn't help but ask Yang Mi to confirm:

"Not a role? Just an audition?"

"right."

Looking at her friend's "you're crazy" expression, Yang Mi shrugged:

"Besides, they only gave me five paragraphs...here they are."

She handed Liu Zhishi the crumpled page of paper given by Xu Haofeng.

Liu Zhishi took it, and after noticing that Liu Yifei was coming over, they simply watched it together.

A passage comes into view:

"Gong Er (Gong Ruomei): The daughter of Gong Yutian, Gong Er is regarded as the apple of his eye by his father and uncles. He has watched his father fight with others since he was a child. "What he hears the most is the sound of broken bones". He has an innate knowledge of martial arts. He has a lot of talent and obsession, and his character has a stubbornness and toughness that “can only advance, not retreat.”

Is this an introduction to the character’s characteristics?

The two of them continued to look down.

What follows are four very short lines.

"My father often said that people who practice martial arts have three stages: seeing themselves, seeing the world, and seeing all living beings."

"They say there are no regrets in life, but that's just out of anger. How boring it would be if there were really no regrets."

"If I had really had the courage to learn tricks, I would have been a star on the stage. Thousands of twists and turns, both sad and happy."

"It's time to burn incense, to eat, and to do things that need to be done even if the sky is thundering. You must return the things belonging to the Gong family today." (See Chapter 285 for details)

Then there was nothing.

After the two of them read these four lines, they realized that Liu Zhishi's acting experience was somewhat shallow.

He raised his head and asked:

"Then what?...gone?"

"No more."

Yang Mi nodded.

But Liu Zhishi was even more confused:

"It's gone?... No, why is it gone? What can you prepare for this? There are no fragments of plot in front of it, and there is no introduction to tell you what is going on... I will give you a character introduction, four lines... that's all All gone?"

"Yeah, that's all in total."

“And you prepared for a year????”

Her tone was filled with absurdity.

In a normal audition process, the actor needs to know what the story is.

Then excerpt a section from the general story and perform it.

Is this right?

But... there is nothing on this piece of paper, not even what should be there under normal circumstances. For example, before the last line is given, there should be an emotional definition.

"Gong Ruomei said domineeringly to XXX: You must repay XXX today..."

There should be a general positioning of this tone.

But there was nothing.

Just four lines and a definition of character, what can you... prepare?

After she asked, she couldn't help but look at Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei seemed to understand what she meant and opened the notebook directly.

This time Yang Mi's notebook is A4 size and about the thickness of a book.

Most of the book has been filled up.

And as Liu Yifei opened the book, a line of words came into view:

"Xu, point of view: domineering personality."

"The four lines, at first glance, are 70% domineering and 30% tender. They are fake. She is 100% domineering, and any more tenderness will cause her a kind of pain. It is precisely because of you that this kind of pain, It makes her tenderness seem precious - I think it is more like a metaphor for the pain of being trapped in a decision."

"Gong Er——Gong Baotian——\u003e\u003ePrototype connection."

"Gong Er - masculine."

"As a woman, she can convince everyone. She is not inferior to men, so she can be called Mr. Gong Er."

"Senior brother's nickname for the Second Master - Mr. Er. (Appropriate)"

"Look up the information, "Shi Jianqiao's Revenge Case", the assassination of Sun Chuanfang. It's very interesting, you can try to nest the image of Gong Er into it."

"The Russian strongman Kantel once caused the Tianjin Chinese Warriors Association to go to the capital to fight. Li Cunyi, Zhang Zhankui, and Han Muxia appeared on the stage. Han Muxia used Baguazhang to attack his lower body. When the opponent fell to the ground, Han Muxia kept his hand, claiming that he could "subdue Rails, broken chains, 14,000 pounds of force," Cantel conceded."

"Li Shuwen is really amazing. I heard from my master that he can "gather flies on a wall, stab them with a spear, and then fall to the ground without leaving any trace on the wall." Gong Er's moves should be as sharp as a man's."

…

The handwriting is densely packed, although it is all intermittent, some is an anecdote, and some is a paragraph.

But from the previous records, both of them can see that Mimi has made a lot of preparations for this role of fierce martial arts and ruthlessness.

When Liu Yifei finished reading, she turned her head and glanced at Liu Zhishi.

Although she didn't speak, Liu Zhishi understood what she meant. After nodding slightly, Liu Yifei turned to the second page.

Then the third page, the fourth page...

The two of them were talking about how fast or slow they looked.

Yang Mi didn’t bother either.

He just stood there in a daze watching the two of them flipping through the books.

I don’t know what I’m thinking.

After flipping through about seven or eight pages, suddenly, the two of them saw a single page of writing in the notepad.

It occupies a full page.

"Too narrow-minded!"

"Gong Er, it should be higher!"

After writing these two sentences, when they turned over the page again, they saw this line:

“After the May 4th Movement, new women awakened their self-awareness, pursued freedom and equality, and resisted the feudal characteristics of the traditional family system.”

"Gong Er should not just be a violent machine. It should be combined,"

"Violence and resistance symbolize the "new woman"'s transgression of social norms, but the "gong family" or "father" should influence her more. She should be loyal to her father and abide by the Confucian discipline of "pure filial piety and sincerity" The traditional appearance is also mixed with the influence of "new women"..."

“The old is included in the new, and they go hand in hand.”

Seeing this line of words, the two of them had a feeling for no reason.

It seems...this is more like the characteristic of being worthy of being "Mr. Gong Er".

Then when he continued to read down, Liu Zhishi suddenly noticed the label on the notepad.

"Yifei, look at this."

"...?"

Liu Yifei followed her instructions and looked at the label writing on the notepad.

Just as the two of them were flipping through the previous content, there was a small label affixed to the "Too Narrow" page.

"See yourself."

What's the meaning? At this stage...does Mimi feel that the "Gong Er" she designed is at the stage of meeting her?

Then, Liu Zhishi pointed to the second label.

It extends from the page the two of them are currently looking at to about...a thickness of ten or twenty pages.

The label reads:

“Seeing the heaven and the earth—seeing the mountain is not the mountain.”

Seeing a mountain is not a mountain?

Seeing this sentence, Liu Yifei instinctively looked for the next label.

Then after another part of the content was separated, the two of them saw the third label.

"Meet all sentient beings."

"……have a look?"

Hearing Liu Zhishi's words, Liu Yifei nodded and followed the label to the page.

There are also a few lines on it:

"Gong Er has seen all sentient beings, but a martial arts world is pressing down on him. Will he be able to see these sentient beings?"

"Do you have any regrets again?"

“What’s the use of seeing heaven and earth and ourselves if we can’t see them all?”

"Looking at the mountain, it's still the realm of the mountain. Judging from the lines, Gong Er doesn't seem to have crossed it."

"Or...she has already crossed over mentally, but things have changed and she chose to look back?"

"What does the third line mean that Gong Er has experienced?"

"Is it true that a big martial arts world cannot tolerate a girl's tenderness?"

"If Gong Er is trapped, is it the martial arts in reality that traps her? Or is it the cage called "martial arts" in her heart?"

Full of questions.

Liu Zhishi looked at it and unconsciously unfolded the page in his hand.

The third line is...

"If I had really had the courage to learn this trick, I would have become a star on the stage."

After reading it, she scratched her head.

Subconsciously, he raised his head and looked at Yang Mi who was in a daze:

"Mimi."

"Um?"

Yang Mi came back to her senses and asked:

"What's wrong?"

"Is this...really just for your audition? Not for the role you're about to play?"

Yang Mi nodded:

"Yes, when I come back from Xi'an, I will go for an audition after participating in "The Voice"."

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhishi's first reaction was speechless.

"But the cost of your... efforts and hard work is too high? What if you can't choose... or because there is no script? There's no telling whether what you're thinking about is consistent with the script... Yeah, I think the artistic conception of what you wrote is too high. If this script can't hold up... If you didn't choose it, wouldn't you have done a useless job?"

Her words made Liu Yifei raise her head.

Although she already knew the reason from Xu Xin.

But that's the director's.

What "Isn't it the right thing for an actor to prepare for a good role?"...

That's thinking from the director's perspective.

She wanted to know even more... why, as an actor, Mimi would do this for an audition clip.

as well as……

"Is this what you do with every character now?"

"Well, that's not true."

Hearing Liu Yifei's words, Yang Mi smiled and shook her head:

"I understand everything, including what you want to express, Shishi. After all... this matter sounds ridiculous to anyone who hears it. I prepared so much for an audition role... It is indeed too exaggerated. But in the final analysis, the most real thing The reason is…dong dong dong dong dong…”

"..."

"..."

The two of them were startled.

Listening to the B-BOX in her mouth, I realized that she still had time to engage in the part of the variety show where the correct answer was about to be announced...

Why are you so naughty?

The two looked at each other and both could see what the other was thinking.

Exactly the same as myself.

then……

After Yang Mi finished "dong dong dong", she announced the correct answer:

"Because Xu Xin likes this role. He even likes this script that he doesn't know what to say. If he likes it... I have to work hard. Even if I didn't get it in the end, at least I worked hard for him, and No regrets."

"..."

"..."

After giving this reason...

For a long time.

In the quiet room, Liu Zhishi's words rang out:

"That's fucking outrageous!"

She cursed.

When Liu Yifei heard this, she didn't feel that the "cousin" next to her was vulgar at all. Instead, she nodded in agreement:

"Yes, it's really outrageous. You opened the door for me. It's outrageous."
