I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

Chapter 866 862. Things like best friend chat records...

"Chasing the light?... It sounds a bit ordinary. The name Lao Xu thought of?"

"Him? The one he named is Xinlong. Sanjinxin, Xinglonglong. You choose, which one to call?"

"Then it must be Chasing Light! Chasing Light sounds great!"

At the dinner table where Jay Chou was suppressing his laughter, Xu Xin was too lazy to curse after hearing Lang Lang's positionless words.

whatever.

Never mind whether it's a chasing light or a light cone...it doesn't matter.

You do whatever you want.

The name of the new company was finalized, and after several shareholders signed their names, Wang Sicong said that he would be responsible for other aspects, and then it was just a matter of publicity.

"Lao Xu, I don't plan to use any mainstream media this time. Instead, I plan to use Internet media. Do you have any objection?"

"for example?"

"Sign up for a Weibo account. In fact, most of the animation industry is young people. They have been in contact with the Internet for a long time and frequently. So I don't plan to accept interviews from some TV media, but I plan to accept a few geeks who are currently doing well. media interviews, and we shoot some promotional advertisements ourselves and put them on the Internet.”

Although Xu Xin was not very clear about the specific operational concept of what he was talking about, he still nodded out of trust in his friend:

"Okay, just tell me what you need me to do."

With that said, he saw that everyone had almost finished eating, so he stood up and took out the USB flash drive from his bag:

"Shall we take a look at my new movie?"

Upon hearing this, Di Wei's reaction was the most direct.

"Okay, okay!"

Xu Xin looked at his wife.

"You go first, I'll clean up."

The young woman with flushed cheeks pointed at the mess on the table.

Mother Yang will definitely have to clean up the mess made by the older children.

Anyway, she can watch the movie whenever she wants.

As a result, except for Kun Ling, who was a little embarrassed and said she wanted to stay and help but was rejected, the others patted their butts and rushed into Xu Xin's studio.

Di Wei is no exception.

The first time everyone had dinner together, she wanted to help, but was rejected by Sister Mi.

Later, after I mentioned it several times and was rejected, I stopped forcing it.

At the beginning, everyone was excited to see what story Lao Xu had filmed.

But after 87 minutes, everyone was silent.

"Ding dong..."

Yang Mi's cell phone rang.

A group of people turned their heads around like they were in a horror movie.

"..."

Sensing something was wrong in the atmosphere, Yang Mi twitched the corner of her mouth...

After looking down at the phone, he read:

"I'll find you tomorrow. Is Xu Xin at home?"

"?"

Including Xu Xin, everyone had a question mark on their heads.

Something's wrong with you!

After reading it, Yang Mi also realized something was wrong, and she immediately looked like she couldn't laugh or cry.

I quickly clicked on my phone a few times.

While saying:

"Message from Shishi."

Then there was a "buzz" sound.

Liu Zhishi's voice rang out from the loudspeaker:

"Is he free tomorrow? I have to ask him to help me with my advice."

Her voice appeared, and everyone's eyes became less strange.

no way……

This movie... has a lot of staying power.

Very nice though.

But compared with its stamina, good looks are nothing to mention.

Wang Sicong smashed his mouth and sighed:

"I have a hunch that after your movie is released, you will be stabbed in the spine by many scumbag men and scumbag women."

"You just say whether it looks good or not and that's it."

"Isn't this nonsense? I felt bored for the first 20 minutes. And starting from 20 minutes, every minute I wanted to slap myself because of my previous thoughts."

His vivid description sounded like two words to Xu Xin's ears:

"nice!"

Just look good.

A good movie is a good one.

"Okay, it's getting late. We're dismissed. I'll go back to the hotel and fly to Xi'an tomorrow. What about you?"

Jay Chou stood up first.

Drink to the fullest.

Return with great pleasure.

…

After everyone left, the house became quiet.

After the two of them tiptoed back to the bedroom, he asked his wife:

"How's it going? Does it look good?"

Yang Mi's reaction was more direct.

The phone was handed to him:

"Are you checking?"

Xu Xin rolled his eyes:

"Crazy... huh?"

Suddenly, he was stunned.

His eyes fell directly on his wife's face.

Or there is a tacit understanding between husband and wife.

At that moment, Yang Mi directly understood his thoughts.

"Whoosh!"

Xu Xin grabbed the opportunity.

"!"

Seeing that the phone had been put behind his back, Xu Xin immediately stopped trying to grab it and said:

"Show me your phone!"

"Okay, you ask me to delete the chat history between me and Shishi."

Hearing this, Xu Xin had a textbook acting look like "How could you wrongly accuse me like this?":

"I don't look at your chat history, I just check to see if you are cheating!"

"Okay! But I want to delete the chat history between me and Shishi!"

"What if you two cheated on me!"

"Even if I cheat on her, you will be the one who gets the most advantage in the end! You and I can have two tastes of kissing! Have fun!"

"..."

Damn it.

His wife’s strange brain circuit almost burned his KPI.

It’s really exciting to think about it this way...ah!

The moment he came back to his senses, he saw his wife looking at him with a smile:

"Xu Sanjin, are you excited?"

"..."

"Do you still want to see our chat history?"

"..."

His grandma's.

What do these two girls talk about in private on weekdays?

【Curiosity】.JPG

…

How well is Liu Zhishi treated in Lao Xu's family?

Answer: I have my own set of pots and pans.

Exclusive.

And for anyone, having a friend who is willing to prepare a special set of pots and pans for you is enough to prove two things.

First, this friend really treats you sincerely.

Second, the kitchen in this friend's house is not generally large.

As it happened, Lao Xu's family met both conditions.

Especially the latter.

His kitchen is almost as big as a living room.

Xu Xin got up early today, and while his wife was still awake, he secretly looked through her mobile phone on the bedside table.

The traitor took advantage of him not paying attention last night and deleted the chat records of several ladies, including Liu Zhishi and Liu Yifei!

Hey! !

Wow, wow, it makes me angry!

Full of resentment, he and his wife finished breakfast with their noses and mouths in mind.

Finally, with the look in Yang Mi's eyes that said, "Young man, I don't know you yet", she drove out.

Went to find Brother Chicken.

But it wasn't until I got there that I discovered that Kun was actually a night owl.

He was a little uncomfortable getting up early.

When Xu Xin entered his studio, he yawned profusely after saying a few words.

Seeing this, Xu Xin knew that the next time he came to see him, it would be in the afternoon.

As for the soundtrack of "Telephone Ringing", he already had a good idea.

The two watched the movie together again.

But this time there were more pauses.

When there are pauses in certain places, they are basically at places where Xu Xin needs some music to enhance the atmosphere.

For example, the light melody at the beginning when driving to a friend's house.

Another example is that when everyone watches the lunar eclipse together, there should be a quiet and warm atmosphere, etc.

Xu Xin marked every place where background music was needed.

And leave the rest to him.

…

Near 12 o'clock, he returned home.

When I got home, the smell of mutton was already wafting from the kitchen.

As soon as you smell it, you know it is stewed.

The taste is extremely delicious.

I'll use that mutton soup later, the taste will definitely be unmistakable.

The wife and Concubine Shi were sitting in the pavilion picking vegetables.

There were two little guys squatting on the edge of the fish pond, holding in their hands whether they were steamed buns or snacks to feed the fish.

Seeing this harmonious scene, Xu Xin, who was in a good mood, came up and bowed on one knee:

"Good luck to the Emperor and good luck to the Imperial Concubine."

"..."

Liu Zhishi's mouth twitched.

Yang Mi, who was picking leek leaves, said without raising her head:

"The queen is here. Offer her a seat."

"twitter."

Don't worry about whether the response and etiquette are correct or not.

Anyway, Xu Xin sat next to Liu Zhishi.

"The imperial concubine is looking good lately~"

"Can you stop talking with your voice high? It's so disgusting."

Liu Zhishi complained speechlessly.

Xu Xin chuckled, glanced at the two folders next to the teapot that looked like scripts, and poured himself a cup of sour plum soup.

"Come to read the script with me?"

"Yes. I don't know which one to choose between these two stories, and they are both scheduled next to each other, so I decided to pick one up. Please help me take a look~"

"Well……"

Xu Xin spread the two scripts flat and saw the names on them.

"I Want to Be Good with You", "Back to the Place Where Love Begins"

have to.

No need to ask.

Two romance movies.

He casually picked up the copy of "I Want to Be Good with You" and asked:

"Did you choose it yourself? Or did they take the initiative to find you?"

"They all came here on their own initiative."

As soon as Liu Zhishi finished speaking, Yang Mi turned to look at the script in her husband's hand and said:

"The one in your hand was sent by LeTV. Didn't they buy "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and then sent this script. The pay is high and the sincerity is high."

Xu Xinxin said that I haven’t read it yet...

However, he still asked:

"Where's the other one?"

"Xingmei's film. Both stories are actually good. However, the genres are highly overlapping, so I can only choose one of the two. The one I recommend is "Back to Where Love Begins", but I have a concern, that is, this film has already been selected. The male protagonist is Zhou Yumin from F4...I'm afraid he will ruin Shishi."

"..."

This sounds awkward no matter how you hear it.

Liu Zhishi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she didn't say anything about her choice. Instead, she waited for Xu Xin to make a decision.

Seeing this, Xu Xin nodded and directly picked up the "Back to the Place Where Love Begins" and started reading it.

At the beginning of the script, he was a little nervous:

"When a woman approaches thirty years old, marriage suddenly becomes a must-choose question. At the same time, love becomes a multiple-choice question. This is the case for Ji Yaqing. There is a fiancé who seems almost perfect to outsiders. She was about to get married, but at this moment, she suddenly felt a little hesitant. And at this moment, an unexpected business trip to Yunnan gave her an opportunity to find herself. It was the last holiday before marriage. Just when she arrived at the beautiful scenery At this moment, she received an unexpected email..."

For no reason, the movie he encountered at the film festival last year popped into his mind.

Xue Xiaolu's movie.

To be honest, he has never been interested in this kind of story theme.

Then, he turned the script to the title page and paid attention to the screenwriter's name.

Screenwriter: Luo Shi

Although there was no sexist intention, after seeing the name, he thought it must be a female screenwriter.

And if it were a female screenwriter...then this kind of YY would really be understandable.

Eating from the bowl, looking at the pot... He didn't even have to think about it, this so-called "perfect" fiancé must be a dog-licker.

Licking around, nothing left.

In the end, the woman ran away with the wild man she met from somewhere.

The famous saying is: I met true love.

Why did you go there in the first place?

And this is indeed the case.

The direction of the story is actually a story of... cheating.

The cliche is unnecessary.

The heroine has a handsome and wealthy fiancé who is extremely loyal to her. However, on the eve of the wedding, she becomes confused and feels that this is not the love she wants. Then a colleague happened to ask her to do a special topic, so she flew to Yunnan and met the "handsome painter" male protagonist.

Although he didn't know why the screenwriter specifically emphasized the handsomeness of the male protagonist.

But it was these two words that made him see the ending of the story.

And the result was quite different from what he had guessed.

The male protagonist comes to look for his grandfather's first love. Coincidentally, his grandfather's first love has the same name as the female protagonist. Then the two of them searched together, experienced some things, and finally fell in love with each other.

Finally, the heroine went back and told her fiancé, "I don't know if being with you is love, but I don't want to be with you now."

Then I went back to Pu'er, Yunnan, and stayed with the painter.

Xu Xin's scalp was numb when he saw it.

real.

Really numb scalp.

He was so good just by reading the synopsis of the story. God knows what he would be like if he read the lines in it.

So, he quickly put down the script and looked at the other one.

And this story...he felt it was much more pleasing to the eye.

It tells the story of Jiang Liangliang, a young Beijing drifter, and his girlfriend Miaomiao, from their acquaintance to their breakup.

Although it is also an emotional drama, and the plot is also a bit cliché in some areas. But... the rhythm is different from "Returning to Love", this is a standard sadomasochism story.

It tells the story of a girl who has a strong desire for control.

Although some aspects still need to be considered, such as the arrogant and domineering appearance of the "rich second generation" that leads to this story.

He also doesn’t know who the “second generation rich” have offended over the years.

Inexplicably, it was used as a villain label. It can be plugged and played and works no matter how you use it.

but……

"Choose this."

He pushed the story "I Want to Be Good with You" to Liu Zhishi.

"As for this book..."

Picking up "Return to Love", he threw it into the trash can filled with rotten leek leaves in front of Yang Mi.

"The character Miao Miao is like a crazy person with extreme contradictions. Regardless of whether the story is good or not, this character will greatly improve you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Mi said without raising her head:

"You see, I tell you, he must like this story."

As he said that, he put a handful of leeks on the table.

He picked up the trash can with the script on it:

"This story is too straightforward, too white, and too destructive. From the story point of view, it is more like an idol drama. Nothing can be developed with this kind of drama."

Seeing what she said so eloquently, Xu Xin was speechless:

"You are sure and you still want to ask me?"

"I'm speaking from the perspective of an actor. You are the director, who knows if you have any tricks?...I'm cooking."

Taking the handful of leeks in her hand, Yang Mi walked directly into the kitchen.

When Liu Zhishi saw that the couple had "collected" the scripts, he took over the "Hao Hao" script and said:

"Then I'll accept this?"

"Okay, this story is indeed more suitable for you. And she is right, if you want to continue to hone your acting skills, then this story is definitely more suitable. In this story, you have to express love and extend from love. The perverted control and some craziness that come out are pretty good."

"good."

Liu Zhishi nodded, feeling confident.

As for the remuneration, she didn't think about it, and Xu Xin didn't ask.

Picked up the phone directly:

"Brother Li, I have decided to take on the story "I Want to Be Good with You". You can help me push that story."

After sending a WeChat message, she put her phone on the table.

Xu Xin's eyes turned:

"Yo? Weren't you wearing white before? Why did you change it to black?"

Taking advantage of the situation, he took Liu Zhishi's mobile phone and seemed to want to play with it.

"That screen shattered."

Liu Zhishi didn't think much about it, just said something casually, and then opened the script.

Xu Xin looked at the ID name of "My Big Baby" pinned to the top of WeChat and his wife's WeChat avatar, and hesitated for a moment...

After all, if you do this, you will definitely suffer moral torture in your heart.

but……

I can't help it.

What do they two talk about every day?

Just take a look...

Just a glance...

Thinking of this, the sinful fingers were about to fall down.

It was at this time.

"What are you doing?"

Liu Zhishi looked confused.

"...It's okay. I just want to take a look at your new mobile phone."

"?"

A big question mark appeared on the blind sister's head.

"We both use the same one."

"...Yours is newer than mine."

Xu Xin laughed dryly, locked the screen of his phone and gave it back to her.

Then under the strange gaze of the other party, I sighed in my heart:

"Grandma's, just a little bit..."

After Liu Zhishi got the phone back, she gave him another strange look.

Then he opened his mobile phone screen and clicked on the chat history with Yang Mi.

He flipped it up casually.

These days... I haven't had much to talk to Mimi.

It's all pretty normal, some everyday conversations.

She thought as she turned over the pages.

Then..., suddenly a piece of news came into view.

It was around 11 o'clock in the evening on July 2, she sent it to Mimi.

[Send me the website you sent me last time. 】

Mimi replied with a series of URLs and an [evil smile] expression.

"..."

The corner of her mouth twitched.

Without saying a word, he deleted the chat box directly.

Um.

There are some secrets...

It would be better if only Mimi knew.
