I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

Chapter 928 924 Ouch

Chapter 928 924.Ouch~~~

"Director Xu, we have just been talking about the news that Zhong Chu has given us in the past few days... "Heart of the Burning Sun" is really that popular!?"

Guess who asked this?

...Eh, you can’t guess, right? This question was asked by Wang Qianyuan.

Duan Yihong is actually a bit bored when he is not filming. Not to mention Zhang Yi, she was even more boring than him.

Wang Qianyuan is actually a very fun person in private.

Laughing and laughing, very interesting.

Especially when this guy drinks, he is said to never leave his hand, smoke or drink, and never leave his mouth to gossip.

That's called chattering.

Xu Xin, who was smoking outside, ignored Liu Zhishi's "I'm still here" look and nodded with a smile:

"It's really popular... Actually, I can't say it's particularly popular. It's just that I have been ranked number one among film critics for a few days. Do you want me to help you translate the critics' comments? I just happen to be able to count the words..."

"No, no, no, Zhong Chu will send us translations of film critics' recommendations every day these days."

After Wang Qianyuan rejected Xu Xin's proposal for the number of water words, he thought about it and asked tentatively:

"Then our chances of winning the prize..."

When he mentioned this, even Liu Zhishi, who was wondering whether to pray for Xu Xin to pull the burning end into his mouth, immediately concentrated and looked over.

In fact, if they calm down, they will all know whether they can win the prize. Asking Director Xu might as well ask Mimi.

Because no matter what, Wang Jiawei is still the chairman of the jury this time.

Regardless of whether it was coercion or coercion, Dami could always find a way to put her hands in her pockets and get Wang Jiawei to tell some news while covering his Bible.

Of course, this is a joke.

Her surname is not Fan.

That's how it is sometimes.

Even though I knew it was impossible, I still couldn't help but place my hope on some illusion.

Xu Xin shrugged:

"Now there is no one but him."

Lang Lang rolled his eyes.

My heart said: Shall I leave?

"Let me say a few words behind closed doors."

Zhang Yi subconsciously straightened his back and kept his hands clean.

These words... As a former member of the army, he was familiar with them.

"We have come a long way to improve the quality of "Heart of the Sun", and everyone knows it. It was continuously recommended during the Berlin Film Festival. Some people praised my acting skills and felt that you have contributed an extremely superb performance. Some people They praise the filming techniques or the storytelling of this movie... But in fact, the movie is the result of everyone's joint efforts. I was talking to Yang Mi before, and I said that this is the highest degree of completion and the best achievement I have so far. Works in the "self-satisfaction" range. Therefore, as a person, I will not be particularly excited if it wins the award. On the contrary, I will feel that it is a matter of course. Because in my perception, it is my best child. .”

As soon as he said these words, everyone felt a sense of security in their hearts for no reason.

There is no other reason.

Just because Director Xu is already the best director in Venice.

And from his words, it sounds like "Scorching Sun" is more satisfying to him than "Hawthorn Tree".

Although it was just a personal thought, this sense of solidity came out directly.

But immediately, Xu Xin came with another basin of cold water:

"But always prepare for the worst. Sometimes, the critics think it's good, the audience thinks it's good, but the jury is all unfaithful, so there's nothing you can do. A movie only has such an opportunity. If it doesn't work in the end, We have met our expectations... Please also calm down, because we have worked hard... By the way, Wei didn't come on Monday?"

He suddenly remembered why there were so few people there.

"He'll arrive in the evening."

"Oh, okay... Anyway, the film festival ends in 5 days, and we will see the results then. And the results of the selection must have been sealed now, and the ending has been decided. Let's just enjoy this film festival. That’s it.”

Ichiban...it doesn't mean it stabilizes the morale of the military, but it is better than stabilizing the morale of the military. It also reveals his current mentality.

The future has been decided, so instead of dwelling on it day and night, it’s better to enjoy the present.

And the words fell...

"Pa bang bang..."

"..."

A group of people looked at Zhang Yi who straightened his back and applauded subconsciously, and were speechless for a while.

What are you doing?

Zhang Yi clapped his hands twice before reacting. This was not a lecture from the company commander... He quickly put down his hand in embarrassment:

"got used to."

"Hahaha~"

…

Soon, Zhong Changyou rushed over.

Everyone has a one-hour program to record this afternoon.

After Lang Lang heard this, he went back to the hotel to rest upstairs.

Yang Mi also ran away.

During the day, you are "The Burning Sun" and I am "The Grandmaster".

We do not offend the river.

At night you are dad and I am mom.

Mom will help you check the goods.

…

"Ah! SHIN! SHIN!"

When arriving at the recording venue, Zhang Yi was stopped by two German aunts before entering the cafe.

After recognizing him at first glance, he quickly came over to ask for a photo.

Zhang Yi was caught off guard.

After taking the photo together, he chattered a lot of German to Zhang Yi.

The translator quickly said:

"They said that Mr. Zhang, your performance was really good, especially the last scene where Xin Xiaofeng met his death. They said that Xin Xiaofeng's soul was completely at peace."

"Well……"

Zhang Yi was stunned, then smiled and expressed his gratitude.

Immediately afterwards, the two aunts focused on Liu Zhishi again.

After the group photo was also taken, a German aunt, which was contrary to the calm, restrained and restrained character of the Germans, held Liu Zhishi's face in her hands and talked a lot.

"She said that your performance in the movie was great. It was a pity that "Xia" did not usher in her own love. But she especially liked the sudden change of emotions in the scene at the end of the movie when you saw the result of Chun getting the child. From The scene where the child's laughter turned into tears was the most poignant and touching scene in her film. You are a great actor and I hope to see you in Berlin every year. As long as it is your movie, she will I will definitely support it.”

"..."

To others, this was actually a compliment to Shishi.

But... I don't know why, Liu Zhishi's eyes turned red after hearing this.

The emotion came very suddenly.

Also without warning.

But...in an instant, her eyes became moist.

After giving the two old German sisters a hug, she thanked them profusely as if she were a fan.

After saying goodbye to the two of them, Xu Xin asked:

"Are you okay?"

"……nothing."

As if the red eyes just now were an illusion, Liu Zhishi shook his head.

But he didn't say anything else.

On the contrary, everyone was confused and didn't understand how she could act like this just because of a compliment.

But she didn't say anything, and everyone didn't ask any questions and walked directly into the cafe.

…

"I feel like Shishi is under a lot of pressure these days."

"What?"

Yang Mi put down the four gift boxes she was carrying.

While asking, he complained:

"When do you think you can stop acting like a child? It's the first time I'm meeting your junior sister. How can you not accept a little greeting gift from a senior junior brother like me?"

"I didn't think much about it...Besides, what can I get? Am I not Ji Wuming's younger brother, Ji Wuming?"

"..."

Yang Mi was stunned for a moment, and then realized what kind of joke he was playing.

He said in a dumbfounded voice:

"If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten that he was the big boss of "Wulin Gaiden" at that time... I will deduct money for homophonic jokes."

"Haha~"

Lang Lang took a look at the four gift boxes and asked:

"What did you get?"

"Two sets of Ru porcelain and two boxes of Lapsang Souchong. Lapsang Souchong is made by a manufacturer Xu Xin met before the Olympic Games. At that time, he was selected as the beverage supplier for the Olympic canteen. It tastes particularly good. I have not eaten in the past two years. I gave it to Lao Banzhang instead of giving it to his family. Ru porcelain has azure glaze. Wasn't Ru porcelain selected as a national gift at the World Expo? Xu Xin left the phone number of the manufacturer who made these national gifts. I ordered it directly. Two kilns. This is a serious national gift. I will prepare a few more sets for you when the time comes. If you go to see your teacher, you will definitely not be ashamed to give this."

"Thank you, Mom."

"..."

Yang Mi is already immune to this title.

He glanced at the time on his watch and said:

"Let's go? I don't have anything to do in the afternoon. You can show me around."

"Okay, let's go."

"Why did you just say that Shishi is under a lot of pressure?"

"Because of the movie."

The two of them walked out of the room one after another.

Lang Lang said:

"Didn't Seventh Brother's "Journey to the West: Conquer the Demons" become a big hit?"

"Um."

"When we came this time, we were chatting next to each other, and suddenly we started talking about the box office. We talked about the box office of the movie you starred in, about Fat Sister, and also about the box office of Brother Seven... She didn’t say it clearly, but I could tell. Think about it, all the friends around here are actors. Let’s not mention you and Sister Fei. Even Brother Qi became popular with “33 Days” and “Westward Journey”. ...But she is the only one who can be said to be clueless in movies.

To put it even more exaggeratedly, even if "Heart of the Sun" becomes a hit this time, for Best Actress... there is no need for the jury to look at it. We compare among ourselves, and you are much better than her. Not to mention Fat Sister, "Hawthorn Tree" is at most an appetizer, but what about the situation of "Perfect"... If it were you, are you in a hurry? "

"..."

Yang Mi was speechless.

Maybe it’s because my back hurts when I stand and talk.

After all, she has already received honors that prove her acting skills.

At least at home.

This is actually the role of "award".

For the audience, it is an "enhancement".

For the actors themselves, it is a kind of affirmation.

After it's confirmed, that's it.

I have won many awards, large and small, over the years, and my acceptance speeches have become increasingly perfunctory. As for what the purpose of these trophies is, maybe the only purpose is to confiscate the display cabinet on the wall of the palace...

But Shishi has indeed not won any heavyweight awards.

The popularity of "Bu Bu Jing Xin" was not due to her acting skills, so it mostly brought her popularity awards.

In terms of affirmation of her own abilities, she is really quite blank.

As for her eldest son, the only reply she could give was:

"Take your time. She also has a movie called "I Want to Be Good with You" this year. Xu Xin read the script and thought it was pretty good..."

"Then you must take your time, and that's what I advised her. But it's not just chatting here, I'm just thinking... If you win the prize this time, she will definitely feel sad. If you don't win, she will feel even more sad."

"...Why? Why should she feel uncomfortable if I don't win?"

"If you win a prize and she doesn't win, she will definitely feel uncomfortable. But if you don't win... Think about it, if even the "Gong Second" can't get the best actress position, how big is the gap between her and the best actress in international awards? It’s you, are you uncomfortable?”

"..."

At this time, Yang Mi was speechless.

Lang Lang asked curiously:

"Have you been watching movies these days? ...How was it? Are there any chances of winning?"

"Let's go fifty-fifty."

Yang Mi shrugged:

"But I've been busy with Xu Xin these past few days, and I haven't paid much attention to this year's movies. Tomorrow they will enter the promotion period, and when I'm not busy, we can just spend some time together. Watch these movies."

"...Then you are still so confident? Fifty-fifty? Ninety-one is about the same."

"You don't understand this. For every actor, there are only two outcomes. One is success, the other is failure. Isn't it a 50-50 split?"

"..."

Lang Lang was speechless.

Yang Mi pulled down her mask and took a breath of the cool air of Berlin dusk.

"Huh... Just calm down. Whether I win the award or not, it doesn't make any difference to me."

"Is this your current state of mind?"

"yes."

Yang Mi nodded and looked at the busy traffic in Berlin, a metropolis in front of her.

"Compared to Shishi, now... my boat has crossed the Ten Thousand Mountains."

"...Tsk."

Lang Lang smashed his mouth.

Sometimes I have to admire these two couples.

One is more poetic than the other.

…

"Well, that's my senior brother Ghazali, who is Portuguese and is currently a piano player in the Berlin Symphony Orchestra."

"...Can you please stop calling your senior brother with such a celestial title? Yigang? I will return Shougang."

"Shougang is not bad either."

"..."

Xu Xin finished complaining to Lang Lang and asked:

"Is that his girlfriend?"

"That's not true."

"It seems that he is still from China?"

"It seems like, why do you have such good eyesight? Can you see clearly even in such darkness?"

After Lang Lang finished speaking, Yang Mi, who was sitting in the passenger seat while waiting for the traffic light, quickly used the makeup mirror to adjust her makeup, said casually:

"The beauty antenna on his head has moved."

"Do you still have this ability?"

Lang Lang's eyes were full of surprise.

Xu Xin smiled proudly:

"Then you see, now my brother is an antenna, which used to be equipped with radar. No matter how far away I am, I can tell whether this person is a beauty or not."

"Just blow it..."

As he spoke, the red light turned green.

The Volvo drove slowly through the intersection.

Lao Lang also ate at this restaurant today. It was Turkish food.

But it is different from the kind of big cake rolled meat in Xu Xin's impression. It is a high-end cuisine.

The location is located at the northeast corner of a block intersection.

In order to welcome this junior brother, senior brother Ghazali was with a tall Asian girl.

As the distance got closer, Xu Xin could see the two of them clearly.

Ghazali is a very typical classical musician.

She has medium-long hair and slightly curly hair. At first glance, she looks like a musician.

And the girl next to me...

"About 20 years old, no more than 20 years old. The height should be around 168cm. The weight seems to be about 95 pounds... Couldn't she be your junior sister?"

Hearing Xu Xin's words, Lang Lang was even more speechless.

I wonder why I didn’t know you knew women so well before?

But he still shook his head:

"No, my junior sister is German."

"I feel like she's a bit mixed-race..."

"Oh, don't show off your skills. You won't know everything when you get off the bus soon."

Following Yang Mi's words, the car also stopped.

Lang Lang lowered the window:

"Dino."

Gazari Dino, first piano of the Berlin Symphony Orchestra...or maybe Shougang.

"Haha, Lang!"

Everyone got off the car, and before getting off, Yang Mi handed over one hundred euros as usual:

"Good job, Evan."

"Lon, this is Gina Ellis. The teacher's student."

"……ah?"

This time, Lang Lang was really stunned.

While they were introducing each other, Xu Xin saw the girl's bright eyes shining brightly.

This girl has big eyes.

Also very divine.

At this moment, it was still shining brightly, like two flashlights.

but……

It should be said or not, although this girl is beautiful.

but……

Before it reached him, Xu Xin subconsciously turned his head and glanced at his wife.

My wife is still beautiful.

Um!

The King of Heaven is here, I dare to say so!

Then he found Yang Mi looking at him too.

And after seeing his eyes directly, his eyes curved into crescents.

It's like saying:

"I love you the most~"

…

There is no need to mention the introduction and greetings at the door.

In fact, today's dinner is very "artistic".

Three piano artists, VS one director and one actor.

In fact, even though there are three pianists sitting at this table today, and they are all Grafman's students, you would think that Grafman is full of talents.

Not really.

Although the greatest pianist in modern history has been engaged in education for decades, the Curtis Institute is not so easy to pass.

On average, only two or three students are admitted to Curtis College each year as piano majors.

There will be no more than 5 at most.

And after these people leave the army, they will undoubtedly be absolute elites.

Ghazali is like this. The girl named Gina can study with Grafman for a year and a half at the age of 19, which shows that she is at least a genius among geniuses.

And, at the dinner table, Gina also said it.

Lang Lang is her idol, and she has always followed him as a role model.

Xu Xin was so breathless after hearing this.

I said to myself, girl, you don’t know what a waste of a person he is in private.

But anyway, this dinner was quite enjoyable.

Xu Xin and Yang Mi are foils.

The topics among the three of them almost all revolved around piano, music theory and the like.

and……

Just when Yang Mi got up and went to the bathroom, Xu Xin received a message:

"I feel like this girl is having fun with the old wolf. She didn't take her eyes off him all night. Please pay attention."

Seeing this news, Xu Xinxin said that this girl really wants to be a matchmaker and wants to go crazy.

When fans see their idol, how many eyes can leave?

but……

He looked at the girl who was chatting and laughing with Lang Lang.

I have to admit, my wife is right.

I just don’t know what Lao Lang is thinking.

But then again, rabbits don’t eat the grass around their nests.

Junior sister, she is everyone’s junior sister.

I was thinking about what I had and what I didn't, and ignored my wife's searching eyes after she came back.

He lowered his head and continued to eat the mutton chops.

Not to mention, this restaurant tastes really good.

Finally, the dinner ended at almost 10 o'clock.

It can be said that the guests enjoy the main event.

This meal was Ghazali's treat, and before leaving, everyone, including Xu Xin, exchanged contact information with each other.

Gina gave two phone numbers.

One is from Germany and one is from Korea.

She is of German and Korean descent.

But the differential treatment can be seen here, because she also left a software number called "WhatsApp" for Lang Lang, and the two added each other as friends.

It's not that she doesn't give it to Xu Xin and Yang Mi, but that neither of them needs it.

Finally, everyone hugged each other and said goodbye.

After getting on the bus, Xu Xin's first sentence was to ask Lang Lang:

"You, junior sister, can do it."

"It's true. The little girl has a lot of musical insights. Although I haven't heard her play...but it should be good."

"..."

Xu Xin's mouth twitched.

My heart said, who asked you this?

"What I'm asking is... what do you think of this guy?"

Lang Lang was stunned.

His eyes changed.

But he immediately shook his head:

"Stop talking nonsense, what are you talking about? We are 12 years apart."

"Age is not a problem, height is not a difference..."

"Stop talking nonsense. That's my junior sister~"

As soon as the words fell, a "didi-didi" sound sounded.

Lang Lang took out his cell phone.

Xu Xin watched him open the WhatsApp, which showed that a person had passed his friend list.

Then sent another EMOJI expression:

"/Shy smile"

"Oh, you are proactive enough."

"Did you eat enough to hold yourself up? You're crazy, you're crazy."

Pushing Xu Xin's gossipy head away, he responded with an expression:

"/smiling teeth"

"You should look a little more infatuated. If you take the initiative, you might have a story."

Xu Xin looked like a "love expert" and pointed from the side.

Lang Lang's eyes were already big, but when he rolled his eyes, Xu Xin's golden eyes were not blinded.

"Can you please say something? This is my junior sister! Besides, I want a real love, so I need you to teach me?"

"Yes, yes, brother, you are right. Then how are you going to talk?"

"What are we talking about? We just added friends and greeted each other. What else do you want?"

Before Lang Lang finished speaking, a message was sent from Gina:

"Thank you for your gift, I like it very much. Lang, are you familiar with Berlin?"

Lang Lang was stunned.

And the dog head next to me who didn’t know when it came over again immediately started barking:

"Say you're not familiar with it! You're not familiar with it! You must say you're not familiar with it! You believe me! She will definitely be your guide! Woof woof woof woof..."

After Lang Lang automatically blocked his next words, he thought about it and replied:

"It's not bad. I know how to get to the concert hall."

"Woof woof woof..."

"Shut your mouth! Do you believe it when I put a sock in your mouth?"

Ignoring the dog's barking, Lang Lang just finished speaking when he received another message:

"Have you ever been to the Capitol Building? Just now you said you like classical architecture. It is a combination of classical, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque styles. Are you free tomorrow? I can take you go."

"Woof woof woof woof..."

Lang Lang dug his ears.

So that I can calmly think for a while.

After a moment, he replied:

"Do you have time tomorrow?"

"Oh shit, what you said is really retarded. You are barking woof woof now..."

Lang Lang, who directly blocked the dog head next to him, soon received a message:

"Yes! I can take you there tomorrow./Shy smile"

"good."

This time, he responded quickly.

Then, just as he was about to turn around and say something to the dog, he suddenly heard...

"Ouch!!!~~~~~~"
