I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

Chapter 449 447. It’s nothing more than beacon fire and playing tricks on the princes

"Mimi, I'm sorry to disturb you."

Li Minnian said politely.

"Haha, where did you go? What do you want from me?"

After exiting the door of the contact hall, she looked left and right... looking for a quieter place.

And Sun Ting, who has an extraordinary tacit understanding with her, is also looking for her.

This is a dance practice class temporarily rented by the crew of "The Grandmaster" that is being transferred.

It is specially rehearsed for actors to practice some moves.

Sun Ting quickly found an empty dance room, and Yang Mi walked in.

At the same time, she heard Li Minnian on the phone say:

"That's it...Mimi, if it was about other things, I would definitely not make this call to you. But I think I must talk to you about this matter."

"Yeah, yeah, just tell me."

Yang Mi entered the room and took the water glass handed by Sun Ting. She didn't mind it being dirty. She casually sat down on the floor and drank the water while asking:

"What's wrong?"

"Shishi was just ordered by the company to stop all work...Mr. Cai gave the order directly."

Yang Mi stopped to drink water.

"……Why?"

"Because she rejected a script called "Gong Lock Heart Jade"."

"..."

In an instant, the young woman's eyes became narrow and narrow.

Like a fox that noticed something.

"Brother Li knows about "Gong Lock Heart Jade"?"

"I know, Shishi just told me. It's like this..."

He recounted everything from when Liu Zhishi got the script to what they discussed on the bench after leaving the company, making it clear to Yang Mi that she already knew about "Gong Lock Heart Jade".

After finishing speaking, he continued:

"Shishi's original intention was not to let me make this call to you or Director Xu..."

"Well, I understand. But at the same time, I don't think there's anything wrong with what you did, Brother Li. After all, Shishi rejected this script because of me, so she was "implicated" by me. Fortunately, you informed me, otherwise if I If you are kept in the dark, you will be even more unhappy when you find out later."

"..."

Li Minnian's mouth twitched.

But immediately I heard Yang Mi’s words:

"That's why I said, I don't treat you, Brother Li, as an outsider. I understand what you meant by making this call. Everything is to protect Shishi... No wonder Shishi treats you, Brother Li, as her own brother."

Hearing this, he felt at ease again.

He understood that Yang Mi understood what he meant.

At the same time, we also gave very positive feedback.

That’s easy to say:

"Then what should I do now? I'm worried right now..."

"Um...where is Shishi now?"

"She drank a little too much at the wedding banquet yesterday, so she opened an hourly room opposite the company to rest. Aren't she going to have dinner with Director Xu in the evening?"

"……Yep."

Yang Mi thought about it for a while and asked:

"Then according to what you said, Brother Li, "Weird Man" is gone, right?"

"...Yeah. Mr. Cai has already said that Tang Yan will act."

"Ha~"

Yang Mi chuckled:

"It's really coming back again... Well, okay, let me talk to Xu Xin about this matter. Aren't you still having dinner tonight? Let's talk about it then, how about that?"

"OK."

Li Minnian said quickly:

"Anyway, I just called you to talk to you, as long as you know about it."

"Yeah, I understand. Then I'll hang up first."

"OK."

Toot.

The phone hangs up.

Holding the water glass, Yang Mi sat on the floor and thought for a while, then suddenly said to Sun Ting:

"When are the Academy Awards coming?"

"April 15. There are still ten days left. The original plan was to go on the 15th. Sister, you have never decided whether to attend the dinner, so I tentatively decided to come back on the morning of the 16th. I have already told Director Wang about this. Zhang Zhen I want to go too, he is from the crew of "Red Cliff"."

Sun Ting quickly reported Yang Mi's itinerary.

Yang Mi nodded slightly:

"I remember...Tang Yan also acted in a movie last year, right?"

"Yes, "Wind and Cloud 2"."

"Have you been shortlisted this time?"

"Yes, I remember seeing it before. They have at least one award for art director. What do you mean...will Tang Yan go?"

"Um."

Yang Mi responded:

"Remember to remind me that when I attend the dinner party and see Tang Yan, remind me to talk to her."

"Do I need to prepare in advance what to talk about specifically?"

"……Being not."

"OK."

After silently taking Sister Mi's explanation to heart, Yang Mi picked up the phone again and called Xu Xin.

It's not even 2:30 yet, when my brother is busy with work.

…

"Jingle Bell……"

Xu Xin was woken up from his nap and was about to see which bastard called at such an evil time. When he saw the note from the caller "a young woman from Beijing", he sighed silently.

The remarks about Xujiawan chickens, ducks and geese are a thing of the past.

This young woman from the capital was changed by her sister herself.

I don’t know what the flavor is.

After answering the phone, he said angrily:

"What are you doing? Do you know what time it is now? Do you interrupt the leader's work like this?"

"...There are still 10 days until we meet in Xiangjiang. I'll give you a chance to change your tone...otherwise...hum, you'll have to bear the consequences."

Xu Xin sneered:

"Tch, what? You can wash your feet and make them smell good, dye your nails red, and then put on brand new oily stockings and step on my face?"

"..."

Yang Mi's mouth twitched:

"How ugly are the glossy stockings! Are fishnet stockings okay?"

"...It's okay, I can barely accept it."

"What about the small mesh, with fringed lace, and the color is white?"

"Hiss~~~"

Hearing her brother's gasping reaction, the young woman smiled happily:

"Then it's settled. Do you want a sling?"

"The sling is a bit vulgar."

"But it will shrink down on its own without a sling."

"Isn't that good? From knee socks to calf socks, and finally to that... socks are all squeezed together, those hot girl style socks... trinity, triple happiness."

"Hey~"

Yang Mi looked disgusted:

"GAL Shibuya hot girl is so ugly, I don't want it."

When Sun Ting heard this, she muttered silently:

"Can you two talk about business? My boyfriend and I learned all the fun from you. I...I'm a bad student!"

As if hearing her words, Yang Mi said:

"Let me tell you something. Shishi has just been suspended from all business by the Tang Dynasty, and even Li Minian has been demoted."

"ah?"

Xu Xin, who had just lit a cigarette and wanted to wake up, frowned:

"What do you mean? I just called her an hour ago... what just happened? What's the reason? Why?"

"The reason is... Yu Zheng submitted the script of "Gong Lock Heart Jade" to Tang Dynasty."

"...???"

Even through the phone, Yang Mi could feel the absurdity coming from her lover.

So he laughed and said:

"Hehe, he's quite courageous, isn't he?"

"……Ah."

There was a chuckle from Xu Xin:

"No. It's really not that big. This is really giving me eye drops."

"how do you want to do it?"

"You have to let him know it hurts."

Saying that, Xu Xin asked doubtfully:

"What's going on with Shishi?"

"Lao Cai wanted her to act... Didn't she find out from me a few days ago that the script was plagiarized from "Bu Bu Jing Xin"? Today Lao Cai asked her to act, but she refused directly. Lao Cai slammed the table, She turned around and left. Well... after all, it was my Shishi who was super brave~ and then it became like this."

Lao Cai...

Hearing this nickname, the corner of Xu Xin's mouth twitched and he began to analyze the matter in his mind.

After a moment, he asked:

"Do you have any idea?"

"I want to take care of it with Yu Zheng and Tang Ren."

"..."

This ridiculous statement instantly made Xu Xin think she was joking.

It's not that the other party is so great, but that he is thinking about a fundamental issue.

"Then what do you want Shishi to do?"

"Come to us."

"..."

Xu Xinxin said, "I know you, a bitch, don't have any good intentions."

He was not surprised that his wife wanted to bring her friend over, because from all aspects, Shishi was already a very close person to him and his wife.

At the same time, through this script, she has proven her character.

Instead of letting your good friends stay in a company that "bans you if you don't obey" and doesn't see much magnanimity, it's better to come to your own place.

Although nothing can be seen yet... but based on the current strength of the two of them, every year, there will be a big step forward in terms of resources.

Otherwise, if resources are really tight, the young woman will not want to continue to expand enrollment.

Visible to the naked eye, next year, the year after, the year after that... one year's resources are wider than the previous year, and the company's current three melons and two dates are definitely not enough.

It’s okay to come.

but……

"How do you plan to deal with the Tang people?"

"You have to do me a favor."

"...Hello? Hello?"

"Can't you hear?"

"You can hear me clearly... are you Yang Mi?"

"...Brother, who do you think you are calling?"

"Are you Yang Mi?"

"……yes."

"What's the relationship between us?"

"Couple."

"You spoke to your husband and said: I want to ask you a favor?"

Yang Mi on the other end of the phone rolled her eyes:

"I said you had to help me, but I didn't say please."

"Tsk."

Xu Xin smashed his mouth.

That sounds harsh enough.

"Tell me, how can I help?"

"Shishi is now just two films away from meeting the ten-film contract conditions when she signed the contract with Tang Ren. If she meets this rigid condition, then if she wants to leave Tang Ren, it will be nothing more than a termination fee for the number of years. But if this condition is not met, If she is satisfied, then she wants to leave. This lawsuit... is really hard to say. I'm afraid that when the court decides that she must meet this condition before she can terminate the contract, it will be really troublesome if the length of the contract is included."

"Two films, right? Any specific requirements? ... No, hasn't she terminated her activities now?"

"That's why I told you to find someone else. People from Tianyu may not be able to help, but people like Shanghai Film Studio and Xiying Film Studio can. And there's no need for two films. Let her participate again. Just act in one and that’s it.”

Yang Mi's words were a little convoluted, and Xu Xin couldn't react.

"Is one movie enough? What about the other one? How do you get it together...that's not right. Doesn't she have a movie called "The Stranger and a Flower"?"

"...That's called "Iljimae"!!"

"What is love? What happened to this work?"

"It's been terminated, and Tang Yan has been replaced again. According to Li Minnian, the Tang Dynasty raised the salary by 10% and asked Tang Yan to act. The movie will open in the next ten days, and there will only be a few days. And I plan to It’s a little trick, and you have to cooperate with me.”

"How to say?"

"I want to report "Bu Bu Jing Xin" to the people of the Tang Dynasty."

"...and compete with "Gong Lock Heart Jade"?"

Xu Xin, who had no idea what "Bu Bu Jing Xin" meant to the people of the Tang Dynasty and had never thought about why his wife wanted to buy this novel, asked subconsciously.

And Yang Mi didn’t mention it either.

After all...if my brother knew that he had been wronged by the Tang people, he might choose a more direct method.

No need.

Since she had chosen to fight the Dragon "alone" in the first place, she had to carry it out to the end.

She didn't feel how stupid she was, but instead felt like she was enjoying it.

The feeling of watching Tang Ren walk step by step into the trap he set...or, in other words, the sense of accomplishment of personally dismantling a well-known TV series production company...

She regarded these as a kind of training, or a hurdle to pass.

Otherwise, without these battles of wits and courage, life would be too boring.

What's more... Is there anything better to show off one's skills to everyone than to operate on a Tang man?

So, she said:

"Yeah. That's what I planned to do... You didn't say before that Xue Haifeng was going to have surgery on "Beauty's Scheming" or something like that. Did you choose to stop?"

"right."

"Then now that Yu Zheng doesn't want to repent, he uses this script to bypass Tianyu and find Tang Ren... This is like giving eye drops to Qian Pengcheng, Xue Haifeng and you, right?"

"Yes."

After receiving her brother's confirmation, Yang Mi said directly:

"You go ahead and use this knife. No matter it's Modu or Tianyu. How much trouble it will cause Yu Zheng."

"Forcing him to come to me to admit his mistake?"

Xu Xin, who had completely understood what his wife was going to do, couldn't help but be happy:

"Okay, let's pull the trigger, right? Yu Zheng asked me to admit my mistake and asked him to take away "Gong Lock Heart Jade" from the Tang Dynasty. Then he sent me the poems named in "Bu Bu Jing Xin" Acting? Is that what you mean? "

"Hey hey hey~"

Yang Mi was also happy:

"That's right. Believe me, after watching "Bu Bu Jing Xin", they will never want to touch "Gong Lock Heart Jade"."

"Then how are you sure that Tang Ren will definitely accept it?"

"Well……"

Yang Mi thought for a while and said:

"Let's take a gamble. Anyway, I think it can work. They...should really like "Bu Bu Jing Xin", which is a higher level than idol dramas and is more suitable to be the No. 1 time travel drama. . Besides, except for Tang Yan, who has not yet joined, no female artist in the Tang Dynasty can hold this kind of time-travel drama with a somewhat idol theme!"

Before she could finish her words, she added another sentence in her mind:

"Because this book is what they want, I just "return it to its original owner" and put in a small condition."

Xu Xin, who understood what his wife meant, thought about it and said:

"Including "Bu Bu Jing Xin", it's just one film short of meeting the contract conditions... Do you want me to do it?"

"Yes, let's see what we can do so that Shishi can act in one more drama."

"No need to bother."

After checking the time and realizing that it was not yet half past two, Xu Xin said:

"Has Tang Yan agreed to play the role in "The Strange Flower"?"

"It's Iljimae, big brother!"

"What do you love? Does she agree?"

"Probably not yet. It happened less than an hour ago, so it's not that fast."

"Okay, won't "Iljimae" open in the early teens, right? Talk to Li Minian and tell him that Tang Yan can't act in this drama."

"..."

Yang Mi was stunned:

"You... are looking for Tang Yan?"

"I'm not looking for it, and I don't need to look for it. It's just a phone call, and the matter of Yu Zheng was also taken care of. And then..."

Speaking of this, he thought for a while and said:

"I will ask Tang Yan to delay the time. Since the filming of the drama will start on the 10th, it means that the venue rental, service staff, crew, director team... and even the remuneration of other auditioning actors have all been paid. The contract has been signed once it's out. If Tang Yan doesn't act, the millions of Tang Ren's advance payments may have to go into it. So, in the end, Shishi still has to act."

Yang Mi's eyes lit up completely:

"Yes, yes, why didn't I think of it... Is Tang Yan really sure?"

"Ha~"

Xu Xin chuckled:

"Don't worry, leave it to me. If you want to play with them, go ahead and play. I'll be your backer. You can do whatever you want. I'm just a TV drama company."

He gave the assurance that he was full of pampering, like a beacon playing on the princes.

Just a Tang man.

He ignored it.

Since my wife wants to try her hand at a little bit... let's have fun.

The whole world is not as happy as my young wife.

Do whatever you want, don’t be afraid.

"Hehehehehe... Brother is the best! MUA~ Oh, by the way, since you are so sure, don't tell her the reason. Her "Wind and Cloud 2" crew will be there at the 15th Academy Awards. I will get it then For this reason, go and say hello to her."

"Ha~ That's fine, let's just say that."

"Yeah, okay! Then I'll wait for your good news~"

"OK, I'm hanging up."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Xin threw it on the bed and walked into the bathroom.

After washing my face and washing away all the tiredness from my nap with cold water, I saw that it was already past two o'clock, so I dialed Xue Haifeng's number.

Originally, everyone agreed not to make a date this time.

"Hawthorn Tree Love" has an investment of 5 million from Honglin Capital.

It was divided from Xu Xin's share.

After the movie started, Xue Haifeng also knew that Xu Xin would be busy for a while.

In addition, the atmosphere of the World Expo was becoming more and more intense in the Magic City, so he did not dare to be vague about such a major event.

So I just said that if I want to drink, I will come out to hang out. If I don’t want to drink, then I will be busy with other things first.

And Xue Haifeng's connection was also very fast.

The first sentence comes up is:

"Hahaha~ Director Xu, are you greedy for wine? Let's find a place to have a drink tonight?"

"Mr. Xue, I definitely can't drink it, but I have other things to talk to you about."

"oh?"

Xue Haifeng was a little surprised:

"What's wrong? What instructions does Director Xu have?"

"Haha~ Come on, how dare you give any instructions... But, Mr. Xue, we were so merciful last time, and some people didn't appreciate it."

"..."

Kind-hearted and soft-hearted...?

Xue Haifeng's mind changed and he immediately understood who Xu Xin was talking about.

His tone suddenly turned gloomy.

"It's the screenwriter, right?"

"Um."

Xu Xin responded:

"After leaving Tianyu, he approached Tang Ren again with the script."

"……Ah."

Suddenly laughter came from Xue Haifeng's side.

Now, I was really angry.

In fact, the reason for his anger is very simple.

This is the same as...

how to say.

Just like the division of villages.

What happened to Yu Zheng happened in "Hu Village".

He came to Hucun to sell seeds. Hucun didn't know the situation at first, but saw that his seeds were good and wanted to buy them. But I didn't have enough "manpower" and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to cultivate the land well, so I found "Shangying Village" with which I had a good relationship.

I hope Shangying Village can help me find a few elite soldiers to plant these seeds in the future.

The relationship between Shangying Village and Hu Village was unknown. After agreeing, they immediately found two seed planting experts.

As a result, experts took a look and found something was wrong.

This idea seems to have been stolen from two experts.

So, the two experts told the people in Shangying Village about this.

When the people in Shangying Village heard this, they quickly told Hu Village.

Moreover, because he is the middleman, he is actually the most embarrassed.

Because he was the one who introduced Hucun to the experts.

He recommended the expert to Hucun.

He was also the expert who helped Hucun contact.

Being caught in the middle made him feel the most uncomfortable.

Then, he started to deal with it.

It was easy to get a satisfactory result.

Experts are generous and don’t care.

Hu Village also gained face, and people became more secure.

Everyone is happy.

However, after the seed seller was kicked out of Hu Village, not only did he not change his ways, he even took the seeds to sell in other villages.

Although I don’t know whether I said the bad things about Hucun and Shangyingcun.

But this behavior itself is an eyesore for the two villages.

If you are not managed, where will the dignity of Hu Village and Shangying Village go in the future?

Let everyone know that Hu Village and Shangying Village can still live well even if they are offended... Then who will care about the two villages in the future?

How are you going to hang out in this three-thirds of an acre of land in the future?

Hucun aside, you really think Yingcun is easy to bully, right?

So, without even asking the reason, Xue Haifeng said directly:

"Okay, Director Xu, leave it to me to handle this matter."

And this time Xu Xin didn't stop him.

Because of the nature of this matter, the copyright plagiarism issue of "Bu Bu Jing Xin" has turned into someone looking down on Shanghai Film and Tianyu.

It won’t work if I don’t teach you a lesson.

So he said:

"Yeah, but there's no need to make too much noise. If you teach me a lesson and turn around, everyone will look good. If you come with a big fanfare, it's just a cannon to kill mosquitoes. It's not a big deal in the first place, what do you think, Mr. Xue?"

Now that things have happened, Xue Haifeng felt relieved when he saw that Director Xu was still saving face for himself, only focusing on the matter and not messing with people, let alone engaging in conspiracy...

"Haha, Director Xu is still generous."

"Ha~"

Xu Xin chuckled again:

"By the way, Mr. Xue, I have one more thing to trouble you with."

"If there's any trouble, that's all Director Xu said."

"Well...it's like this. There is an actor named Tang Yan. The Tang Dynasty wants her to put out a fire in a drama...I think it would be better if she doesn't take it. Because the drama in which she puts out the fire was originally a friend of mine's. And this I should have just sent the message to her soon. If possible... don't let her answer this drama, but the reply time can be delayed for a few days..."

"Tang Yan?...Oh, I remember it. That little actor from Cheng Tian, ​​right? He seemed to have been here at the last party?"

"right."

"No problem. I'll have someone tell her. Don't worry, she will fully cooperate with Director Xu on this matter."

"Haha, that's fine. Just ask her not to answer, but there's no need to say the specific reason."

"Okay, then I'll let them do it."

"Then thank you Mr. Xue..."

"Hey, where did you go..."

The two chatted for a while before Xue Haifeng hung up the phone.

Then his face darkened.

Apparently, being given eye drops doesn't feel good.

However, he did not forget about Tang Yan and said to the driver:

"In a moment, let the person who organized the actors to visit Director Xu at the golf manor call Tang Yan and tell her that all the dramas related to the Tangren Film and Television Company have been rejected. Just say it was me."

"Okay, Director Xue."

The driver nodded and took note of the leader's instructions.

Xue Haifeng, on the other hand, held the phone and began to think deeply.

Tang Yan's matter was nothing more than a trivial matter.

Just an actress from the Shanghai circle.

Let her run before she dares to run.

If she is not allowed to move, she will never dare to move.

As for the evidence...

"Ah."

He sneered and dialed Qian Pengcheng's phone number:

"Hey, old money, Director Xu just told me something..."
