I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

As for Jay Chou, the issue of ticket refunds for his concert has become a hot topic.

But not everyone in this world lives for hot searches, such as Xu Zhi.

In the dark night city, a 2012 50TFSI Audi car that didn't match the temperament of any of Xu Zhi's cars drove out of a western-style building community with excellent location and apartment layout at around ten o'clock. Joins the main road.

As he drove, he threw an opened box of Okamoto from his pocket into the central storage compartment of the car. While holding the steering wheel steadily with one hand, he took out a white wax-sealed ball from the center console.

Take advantage of the traffic light and rub it open with your hands.

Inside is a slimy meatball.

After throwing it into his mouth, he began to chew it. While chewing, he picked up the mineral water and started to put it into his stomach.

With a "gumble" sound, he let out a long sigh of relief after finishing his meal.

"call……"

At this time, the mobile phone left in the center rang.

Before the red light turned green, he picked it up and took a look.

It was a message from someone with the WeChat ID "Liu Tao".

Xu Zhi subconsciously loosened the first button of his shirt and clicked on his phone.

"Walking so fast? I still have something I haven't asked you."

Seeing this news, Xu Zhixin said that if he didn't leave, he might lose his life.

So he replied:

"There's something else going on over there. What?"

"Something happened? Are you going to do something?/Snickering, please pay attention to your body."

Xu Zhixin said you also know how to pay attention to your health?

You are the least qualified to say this.

But he didn't reply because the light had changed to green.

Unlike Xu Yang, who liked to drink and drive two years ago, he was born with an alcohol allergy and never drank. So I cherish my life very much.

Naturally, I couldn’t type while driving, so I pressed the phone and said in voice:

"Ask me what?"

"Will the drama "Tonight" be on Shaanxi Satellite TV?"

After hearing the other party's reply, Xu Zhi gave a positive reply:

"Of course I'm going. I'll probably have news tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Just don't worry... I'm driving, no more chatting."

After saying that, he put down his phone.

"Ding~"

He ignored it and drove until the next traffic light before picking it up and taking another look.

"Well, pay attention to safety. If you go to Yanjing these days, please contact me."

Xu Zhi curled his lips and didn't reply.

I said in my heart that we each get what we need, and here you give me. But if I go to Yanjing to find you, then I will break up the marriage.

He himself has two creeds in life.

One, don’t touch girls.

Second, don’t touch good people.

The former is bound by law, and the latter is bound by morality.

And the "difference" between the two is not to mention that meat and vegetables are not taboo...but at least people who throw themselves into their arms are welcome.

He is not Sanjin, and he has not met a woman like his younger siblings yet.

Don't want to meet either.

I always feel that the three-gold life is too "bitter".

Maybe this is also the reason why he is the most promising person among them.

Only by enduring hardship can one become a master.

What's more... As Yuntu's "talker", even if he were a stone, he would have been ground up and digested by the people around him who were waiting for him.

To put it bluntly, this circle is very realistic.

Either you have the ability or you have a good sponsor.

A capable person may not be able to take off if he has ability but no luck, but with a financial backer... if the financial backer slips something out of his fingers, it will be enough to feed them.

And if others could see the life he lived, they might be surprised... the life he lived was completely different from the life Sanjin lived... or it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a completely different world.

That’s normal too.

Some people place their affection on mountains and rivers and choose to escape from the mortal world, regardless of the mundane world, and are happy and free.

But there are also people who spend their whole lives rolling around in the world of mortals, and live their lives happily and contentedly.

a.

Xu Zhi felt that he was just a layman.

There's nothing wrong with being a layman.

Greedy for money, lustful, and upright.

What's more... he is not greedy for money.

Because he has money.

Not very lewd either.

After all, we have principles, right?

But there were so many people coming to our door, and everyone was willing to make a deal, so no one owed anyone anything.

This circle should be as clean as Sanjin's circle... Good guy, what else is there to do? You might as well become a saint and ask for help.

My mind was in the sage time, and when I was thinking wildly, suddenly, a phone call broke the tranquility.

Xu Zhi himself doesn't have the habit of not answering the phone in the middle of the night.

Yes.

After taking a look at the caller, he answered directly:

"Hello."

"Way, where is it?"

Xu Yang's loud voice rang on the other side of the phone.

"In the car, go home. What?"

"Go back to your home and come to BOSS."

"What?"

"What? Come on, come on. The first-day box office will be out soon. How about taking a look together."

"……good."

Xu Zhi responded and hung up the phone.

The BOSS Xu Yang was talking about was a private club.

It's just over the Bund, but unlike Roosevelt, it's not so businesslike... or rather "traditional."

Roosevelt was just like foreigners. After going to Sanjin a few times, he found it boring.

But some of the other clubs in the city, such as the Magic City, were very suitable to his taste.

According to Xu Yang’s words:

"It looks like a brothel, Ya!"

Of course, a brothel is not a prostitution house, but there is a difference between the two.

But by then the uncle was very comfortable.

I've just been busy for a while, so it's good to find a place to relax and relax.

So, Audi came all the way to the Bund.

The Bund is a ten-mile foreign market, a land of hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

Such a big demon doesn't know how many talented people are in this "nearly visible" high-rise building.

He arrived at an underground parking lot with ease. After parking the car, a young man was already waiting there.

No need to be led, he walked directly into the special elevator.

After quickly arriving at the designated floor, he glanced at the room number sent by Xu Yang on his phone, and then walked out under the gaze of a group of outstanding-looking girls.

The leader, a lady who looked to be in her early thirties, saw Xu Zhi and immediately bowed politely:

"Hello, Mr. Xu."

"Oh, Sister Li."

The good-tempered Sister Yu smiled and nodded. No need to say anything, she took the initiative to follow Xu Zhi.

When you encounter a corner, lead in a direction:

"Mr. Xu, is it still the same here?"

Obviously, she knew where Xu Zhi was going.

Xu Zhi didn't respond, just asked with a smile:

"How does the tea taste?"

The expression on Sister Yu's face turned into a look of satisfaction with a bit of amazement:

"Not to mention, it tastes really good. I just drank it and hid it secretly."

"Haha~ If you like it, come and get it from my place another day."

Hearing this, the lady smiled and nodded:

"Okay. Let's wait for another day. I'll be on duty this week, and I'll be off next week."

"Next week..."

Xu Zhi thought for a while and said:

"Have you been to Xiangjiang this year?"

"Nope."

"I'm free next Tuesday and Wednesday. Can we go shopping?"

Sister Yu glanced at him with a smile. Perhaps because there were no waiters around, the formulaic polite smile on her face gradually faded away, replaced by an expression between anger and joking:

"Just give me Tuesday and Wednesday?"

Not to mention, she is in her early thirties and has a good appearance, which is really charming.

But Xu Zhi chuckled:

"Ha~ something really happened."

"Then let's talk about it."

"Haha~ That's okay."

Xu Zhi responded with a smile.

But the smile inside was cold.

He sneered and muttered: Greedy.

While the two were chatting and joking, they also walked to a wooden door.

Xu Zhi said directly:

"Then contact us via WeChat."

"Okay~"

Sister Yu nodded first, and then turned into a professional smile again after Xu Zhi opened the door.

Paired with the professional attire, the OL temperament is so outstanding.

However, it is no longer attractive to Xu Zhi.

It was just a casual marriage, and it had long since lost the freshness it had at the beginning.

And after taking a kidney-protecting pill today, he had just quit the sage mode and still wanted to continue it. After all, Sister Li was quite tasty, and she was really good at it.

But he heard some overtones in the other party's words that he didn't really want to hear.

Then forget it.

Birds with three heads are hard to find.

People who run on two legs are dissatisfied everywhere?

After entering the house, there was a gentle sound of the door closing behind me.

In the Chinese-style layout of a hundred square meters, he saw at a glance Xu Yang, who was lying on the Arhat bed with his head on a girl's lap and his legs on another girl's lap, waving to him.

Not to mention the two girls who served as his pillows and leg rests, the most outrageous thing was that there was a girl in a short cheongsam sitting on the Arhat's bed, holding a fruit basket in her hand, with all kinds of fruits in it. The... seems to be feeding him.

Xu Zhi has long been accustomed to strange things.

Didn't you say anything?

He didn't like Roosevelt's approach.

But the new Chinese style... he was very proud of it.

"Just you?"

"Yeah, they all have something to do. Who among them is shouting for birthday, so why don't you go? It's noisy. They all went."

While Xu Yang was talking, Xu Zhi had already arrived at the dining table separated by a mahogany screen not far from the Arhat's bed.

He picked up the menu on the table, took a look at it, and said to Xu Yang:

"Go and get a side stove. I want a chicken and a fish. I want a pigeon at the bottom of the pot. I'll make three chickens and eat them. Go ahead."

After hearing what he said, the cheongsam girl who was feeding Xu Yang fruits on the fruit plate glanced at Xu Yang, and then nodded:

"OK."

After responding, she politely got off the bed from the direction of Xu Yang's feet and walked out on high heels.

After Xu Yang heard what he ordered, he suddenly smiled and said:

"Pigeons nourish the kidneys and replenish qi."

Xu Zhi ignored him, just sat on the sofa opposite the Arhat's bed, and lit a cigarette.

Seeing this, Xu Yang shook the girl who was massaging him with his leg:

"Call some of your little sisters."

The girl smiled sweetly, hugged his legs and put him on the Arhat bed, and then walked out.

The girl who had been using him as a knee pillow continued to press the acupuncture points on his head.

It wasn't until Xu Yang sat up that she quickly stood up and came to the tea table next to her, and started pouring tea and water.

Xu Yang walked to sit on the sofa next to Xu Zhi, took the cigarette from Fa Xiao and asked:

"Will Sanjin be coming in a few days?"

Xu Zhi subconsciously glanced at the girl making tea, nodded slightly, and said:

"Well, isn't Sister Mo going to invest in a script? Come over and talk about the situation."

Xu Yang showed a knowing look and asked with a smile:

"Arrange a table here?"

"..."

Xu Zhi's mouth twitched and he turned to look at him:

"Your goose died unjustly."

"……hey-hey!"

Xu Yang seemed to have remembered something, and he laughed quickly:

"That's what you're saying."

Then he picked up his phone and took a look at it. He ignored the cheongsam girl who was bringing tea and complained:

"Hey... when do you think we can get the real-time box office? We know it, don't we? We have to wait until twelve o'clock every time to give you the news. It's so troublesome!"

"What? Are you in a hurry to leave?"

"That's not the case. I'm just anxious about waiting!"

"It's all done after waiting. It'll be almost finished after dinner."

Saying that, Xu Zhi glanced at the time.

It's already 11:20 now.

After dinner, there is no news about the first day's box office.

Today is the premiere day of "Tiny Times". From 0 o'clock to now, it has been screened for more than 23 hours.

This is a film solely owned by Headwind.

Yuntu doesn't like it...or Xue Haifeng doesn't like it.

In fact, Sanjin didn’t like it either.

In other words...he didn't like Guo Jingming.

But for Xu Zhi himself, Guo Jingming's book is a memory of his youth in high school and college.

Just like "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", a movie that was criticized by everyone, he watched it with Zhao Wei in mind, and it still remains in his memory.

Youth is a memory.

It has nothing to do with the writer.

So, he voted.

Anyway, it's only 45 million, which is not much, and... Guo Jingming can save money quite a bit. Others would only invest 45 million for one film at most, but it would be better for him to make one or two films together.

It can be regarded as the conscience of the industry.

And now he has exchanged 40% of the shares of this film for 3% of LeTV shares.

Moreover, LeTV also took over the distribution and publicity without having to pay a penny.

No matter how you look at it, this account is a profit.

It doesn’t matter if the movie is a box office hit.

No matter what, if the headwinds are against you, you will definitely make money without losing money.

Because he knew the nature of LeTV from Sanjin, he had prepared knives and forks in advance.

While the two were chatting for a while, the first girl who went out came back.

The second girl who went out brought back some soft girls.

Xu Zhi did not hug him from left to right.

He just leaned into the arms of one girl and let another girl relax his muscles.

With the warm fragrance of nephrite in his arms, he felt a little more relaxed.

He even fell asleep.

After an unknown amount of time passed, Xu Yang shook him awake:

"Let's go, let's eat."

Xu Zhi squinted and saw that the food was already on the table.

According to his request, first there was a casserole with pigeons and herbs stewed in it, then fried crispy chicken bones, stir-fried chicken offal, and tender chicken that was as thin as potato chips and bright red.

One chicken and three meals.

This is a practice from Guangdong.

Sometimes he had to admit... when it came to eating, he had to be a southerner.

This chicken can be sliced ​​to such a thickness, and the skill of boiling it in boiling water and making it cooked is really beyond the reach of ordinary people.

As for the plate of fish fillets...it was just ordinary.

The main thing to eat is a crispy one.

When the meal was served, Xu Zhi waved directly:

"Okay, you all go."

It was obvious that the two girls had just been called over less than twenty minutes ago...

But Boss Xu doesn’t care about these three melons and two dates.

The two brothers sat at the table, and Xu Yang took out a bottle of Maotai from nowhere.

Xu Zhi took a look and said:

"Where are you taking the bus later?"

"Did you sleep well here?"

"That's up to you, as long as you don't drive. Eat~"

He is hungry.

Pick up the chicken and add it to the casserole.

Xu Yang poured a full glass of wine on his own.

Just pour it and drink it yourself.

"Speaking of which, Yang Ying has contacted you recently?"

"We keep in touch, but not so frequently. She and Hua Yi are getting close."

"What do you say Sanjin?"

"Sanjin said he doesn't care about her."

"Okay..."

The two brothers chatted and ate while enjoying some time together.

Even Xu Yang was drinking and playing with his mobile phone.

The result suddenly made me happy:

"Haha~"

"What?"

"Jay Lun's concert made big news!"

He said and handed over the phone.

Xu Zhi took it over and looked at it, then shook his head speechlessly:

"In other words, Mimi is at home. I definitely can't let him act like this at home~ He'll end up causing trouble~"

"Why are you making such a fuss?"

Xu Yang was speechless:

"Can you still see it?"

"What?"

"This business is amazing. Who doesn't get married every day? As long as they are not concentrated, there will be no problem. What's more, these things are rare and valuable. Once there are more people, it is no longer rare, and there are so many people. So interested."

"Hmm...that makes sense."

Xu Zhi nodded.

But it's not surprising that Xu Yang can see clearly everything inside.

No one is perfect, yes.

But every imperfect person also has his or her own shining points.

You guys don't have any skills. A group of wealthy locals from northern Shaanxi can't stand in this ten-mile foreign market.

"Same goes for Si Cong. Isn't this an advertisement? Wanda will probably wake up laughing in her dreams."

"...Then according to what you say, Lao Lang doesn't need to publicize it anymore, right?"

"The old werewolf is honest and gives you real things!"

"It's a shame. There are 10,000 people in class, be good...it's noisy, but you can hear clearly~"

"Hahahahaha..."

Amid laughter, the two brothers chatted while eating.

Soon the two plates of meat were all gone.

"Get some noodles?"

"alley."

Xu Zhi took the service bell on the table and pressed it.

Soon, a cheongsam girl who was in the room just now walked in.

Maybe she was on "duty", or maybe they were just waiting at the door.

Who knows.

Xu Zhi didn’t care and said:

"Get a plate of noodles and tell Sister Li, she knows."

"OK."

The girl left quickly.

Xu Yang glanced at the time...

"It's 12 o'clock."

"Wait a minute, it should be soon."

Following Xu Zhi's words, the two of them finished the bowl of noodles.

Xu Yang smoked a cigarette and yawned from time to time.

Apparently, after drinking some wine, he was a little sleepy.

Xu Zhi was in good spirits. He was chatting with his cell phone and didn't know who he was sending messages to.

Just like that... time passed little by little.

At 12:37.

"Ding dong~"

Their cell phones rang at the same time.

After opening them separately and taking a look, Xu Zhi was stunned.

Xu Yang's eyes widened and he was completely confused.

Looking straight at the numbers on the phone...

"How much...how much?!"

His words were full of surprise.

Subconsciously, he looked up at Xu Zhi.

Xu Zhi was also looking at him and said in an extremely puzzled and puzzled tone:

"It's 7100, how much is yours?"

"Yeah...too."

"Tiny Times" first-day box office: 71 million.

Don't talk about these two people.

Everyone who got the news... was stunned.

Take less? !
