I'm the director, I'm not bad

Chapter 155 153. Xiao Yaxuan Swearing

"Bao Wenjing... um... seems to have an impression."

With the phone between them, Xu Xin replied:
"Just with that girl with the big eyes, right?"

"Yuan Shanshan?"

"..."

"Goose, Goose, Goose, Goose……"

Feeling her boyfriend's speechlessness, Yang Mi laughed out loud:

"Okay, I won't tease you. It's her..."

"...She's so stupid."

Xu Xin said directly:
"Stay away from this kind of person in the future, stupidity will be contagious."

"I know, that's what I told Xiaobing in the car just now. Burning cigarette scars on myself... My dad and his age only do it. What do you think, your brain is twitching?"

"Maybe there's something wrong with it. Anyway, it's definitely okay to stay away from her...the farther away the better."

"Well. Just to tell you, no, I will go to Feilong Valley tomorrow morning, and I will arrive in Taichung around 10 o'clock in the evening. You don't need to pick me up, I will go there by myself."

"I'll leave the door open for you."

"...Hey, villain. By the way, let me tell you something..."

"what?"

"I went to the spa yesterday."

Hearing this, Xu Xin was taken aback for a moment, then became speechless:

"You won't watch any movies you shouldn't watch again? Don't, the hotel is full of oil, what do others think of us?"

"Brother, what are you thinking!"

The girl on the other end of the phone was speechless:

"Who told you this?"

"Then what would you tell me about a massage?"

"I'm telling you that I'm going to do laser hair removal. But here are big hospitals... I'm quite shy. You ask Dani to help me ask there, there are not many professional private clinics over there .I'll do it over there."

"It takes so much trouble to get rid of an armpit...uh..."

After being stunned for a moment, Xu Xin suddenly understood something, and his face instantly became strange:

"Have you... recently changed your taste?"

"I talked to the masseuse yesterday... I need to take care of it."

"And don't show it to others, so what?"

"Oh, why are you so annoying. Don't care, you can ask me quickly! Just make a permanent one, and get it done at one time. I'll get it when it's finished. You can ask Dani to help me find a reliable one, you know?"

"If you just ask which clinic is the most expensive, then it's over."

"Row."

Xu Xin readily agreed:

"Then you should rest early."

"Well. Good night, brother... Hehehe, I will show you a new pattern tomorrow!"

"Sigh~~~~"

"Goose goose goose goose..."

……

2 month 1 number.

Outside the wall of Tamkang Music Middle School.

The weather in Benwan in February has begun to warm up, and the average temperature has risen to 2 to 16 degrees.

It is a season to wear a coat when it is cold and short sleeves when it is hot.

In this red brick alleyway that Jay Chou walked through countless times when he was a child, security guards guarded the crowd of onlookers, and fire trucks stood by at any time.

Xu Xin looked at his girlfriend who had opened the umbrella, and Jay Chou who was next to him in short sleeves.

After confirming that the two are ready, they nodded:
"Prepare for watering, the venue is cleared. The rest of the actors are in place."

Soon, there were a few more students holding umbrellas behind the two of them.

"Come on, three, two, one, sprinkle water."

Hearing Xu Xin's words, the special irregular nozzle used to imitate falling rain spewed out tiny water droplets.

"ACTION! Go~"

After Xu Xin's voice fell, Qingyi and Ye Xianglun started walking along the road in front of the camera.

In this drama, Xu Xin's requirement is that every screen can be used as a computer desktop background.

Therefore, even if it is just a scene of walking in the rain, under the effect of lighting and filters, it is also beautifully shot.Even though Jay Chou's appearance is not particularly good, but this picture is also very beautiful.

In the screen, Qingyi, played by Yang Mi, asks Ye Xianglun at dusk on the road after school:
"Didn't you ride your bike today?"

"……No."

Ye Xianglun said something casually.

Hearing this, Qingyi continued to ask:
"Then... if you have a bicycle, can you take me home?"

"..."

Ye Xianglun was stunned for a moment, and after taking two steps, he responded with a smile:
"sure."

And this response also made Qingyi smile.

The two slowly walked out of the range of the camera.

But Xu Xin didn't stop.

Instead, he directly adjusted the shot just taken on the monitor, and watched it carefully, almost without missing any details.

While watching, the entire crew was also waiting for his response.

"...ok. Passed!"

The voice fell, and someone shouted:
"It's done!!!!"

"Oh hoo!!!"

A busy month.

All the shots of "The Unspeakable Secret" have been shot.

wrap up.

……

Celebration banquet.

A lively celebration banquet.

Except for Huang Qiusheng who left after filming and returned to Hong Kong to take care of his family, everyone else in the crew was there.

Even Jay Chou's father, Zhou Yaozhong, who played a guest role as a biology teacher in this episode.

Jay Chou booked a restaurant, and everyone started a lively celebration.

Everyone had a look of joy on their faces.

Even Fang Wenshan and Yang Junrong rushed over.

Everyone went in the direction of getting drunk, just to comfort themselves for the hard work of this month.

Especially those few lighting and prop masters whose hair is almost gone...

Met a detail madman like Director Xu... He usually refuses to say anything, but today he can still get around you?
Fill!
As soon as the hot dishes were served, Xu Xin had already swallowed a catty of wine.

But he was just blushing, but he was just a little drunk.

Yang Mi didn't drink, because she had to take care of her boyfriend who would definitely drink too much tonight.

Seeing her boyfriend's appearance of pushing a cup with others and not refusing to come, she unconsciously showed a flower-like smile of joy on her face.

At this time, Jay Chou came over with a glass of red wine:
"Mimi, thank you for your hard work."

He never touches liquor.

It hurts my throat too much.

After Yang Mi touched him with soda water, she directly asked Dani behind:
"Dani, did you ask for me?"

"I asked, it can be done tomorrow, there is absolutely nothing to say about Miss Tian's skills."

"...What are you two talking about?"

Jay Chou was a little puzzled.

Dani smiled mysteriously:
"Don't inquire about girls' affairs~"

"...Okay, I'll go drink with Ah Xin."

Soon, Jay Chou, who had provoked Xu Xin in the past, was stunned by a set of drinking words, and was poured a full glass of red wine by Xu Xin's arms around his neck...

Anyway, I am very happy, and I will pay tribute to you~
If it is said that Xu Xin's biggest gain from the wrap-up banquet, it might be getting Li Pingdong's promise.

The boss personally promised this cute new director:

"If you can't find a good photographer for the next play, please contact me."

This sentence caused Xu Xin to drink the most cup.

In a word, two ounces of wine, one sip of boredom.

But it scared Li Pingdong enough...

Drink like this, are you okay?

Turns out... nothing, but something.

After drinking this cup, Xu Xin, who had already drunk more than a catty and a half, broke into pieces.

But it's because...Yang Mi took good care of him that night.

Xu Xin has a physique that does not spit out alcohol.

And this kind of physique is actually the most difficult to get after drinking too much.

He couldn't spit it out, so he could only rely on his liver to break down the alcohol.And breaking down alcohol requires a lot of water.

One night, he got up in a daze, drank water four or five times, went to the toilet countless times, and finally sobered up at dawn.

It's fine if you're sober...

But the problem is that there is a big beauty with her back lying beside her.

You said that you tormented others all night, pouring water for you and helping you to the toilet... You are sober, can you let others take a good rest?

Eh, no.

Just play.

It is capricious.

He directly hugged his own girl in his arms:
"Baby, good morning, hehehe..."

then……

The confused Yang Mi instinctively said:
"Oh fuck..."

Xu Xin pretended not to hear it, and planned to go her own way...

The sleepy girl who couldn't open her eyes pushed her a few times, and when she couldn't move, she snorted impatiently, but she didn't stop her, she just covered her face with the pillow.

Forget it, what do you like.

Son of a bitch!
Next time you drink too much and wait on you, I'm a dog!

……

"...Why is Mimi's walking posture so weird?"

The night of August 2st.

Jay Chou, who was sitting in the car, was a little puzzled and asked Dani:

"Where did you take her today?"

"Say it all, brother JAY! You can't ask casually about girls! Are you afraid that Brother Xu will beat you up?"

"I didn't have a nunchuck, but with a nunchuck in my hand, would I be afraid of him?"

Thinking back to last night at the celebration banquet, the tragedy of being poured alcohol by a certain bad boy, Jay Chou said angrily.

But Dani didn't believe it at all, she just smirked and opened the car door.

After Xu Xin helped Yang Mi get into the car, he got into the car by himself.

Sun Ting, on the other hand, loaded the luggage with the driver of the car behind.

Soon, the car set off.

Jay Chou didn't ask Yang Mi what happened, walking so strange...

Instead, he said to Xu Xin:
"I plan to entrust a company from Heguo to do the soundtrack of the film. It's the soundtrack company in "Initial D". It's a tacit cooperation with them. How about it?"

"Doesn't work in China?"

"domestic……"

Jay Chou thought for a while and said:
"I haven't worked with you before, so it doesn't matter if it's anything else... But here I want to be a little more secure... Except for Hollywood, He Guo's soundtrack is not mentioned."

"……it is good."

Xu Xin didn't know any music company, so he nodded:

"For negatives, let's use the editing studio introduced by Director Zhang. It's already agreed. Although it's the end of the year, they also gave me face and can work overtime. During this time, we will arrange it more tightly. Years ago, I cut out the rough film first, and you will go over there to make music after the next year. Have you arranged for the special effects?"

"It's already done, and the special effects are from Heguo's side. After the payment is sent today, I will fly over tomorrow with your sketch."

"...Okay. About ten days, about ten days, edit the crude film, and after you send it over, go back here for the New Year. Let's meet again in the next year. After the year, I will start working on the Olympics with all my strength. If you want to keep an eye on the matter, you can only go to you after work at noon or at night. Director Zhang has already helped you find the company, and if you come here to look for it, there are people in Xiangjiang and the mainland."

"Well...it should be done before June. If there are no accidents, the schedule is enough. From July to August, I want to release it during the summer vacation. What do you think?"

"Row."

The two quickly discussed the plan.

Film editing and soundtrack were done separately.

Usually, the editing comes first, and the soundtrack comes second.

Because of the soundtrack, the director was required to explain the shooting concept... But Xu Xin had already done this job during the filming.In the past few days, Jay Chou, Mike Lin, and Huang Junlang have been talking about these things.

A few demos of the soundtrack have been produced, but the post-processing, including technical processing of vocals and background sounds, will take about three to six weeks.

And the same goes for clips.

In terms of editing, I won’t talk about the selection of shots. This is the main thing I’m busy with these days.After screening the shots to be used, a rough cut is made to fully connect the film together.

That is to say, after the story is sorted out, the fine cutting of technical processing begins.

For example, when to cut into which shot, the speed of the picture rhythm, the color correction and correction of the shooting picture, and finally the subtitles and special effects.

Subtitles must be included, and French subtitles must be produced, because the film will be sent to Cannes.

These are all complex processes.

A full-fledged editing studio also takes about four to eight weeks to complete.

And after the completion, the soundtrack over there is almost ready. When the time comes, take the finished film to the soundtrack room, and directly combine the two, and the resulting film will be the finished film.

After the film is completed, it is submitted for review, and then the distribution company arranges theater screenings.

This is the process of a set of film releases.

In fact, compared with the complicated post-production work, shooting is really not particularly time-consuming.

One month of shooting, three to five months of post-production and release.

That's pretty fast.

Some movies require two or three months of shooting time, and there are a large number of transition shots, and even the post-production is calculated in years.

If the director blots some ink, it may be normal for two or three years.

This is still not the time for trial.

But it doesn't matter much to submit for review. Over the past few years, due to the relationship with the mainland, the review in the Mainland has relaxed many favorable mechanisms for this side.

Basically, as long as it is not an excessive shot, the review conditions are quite generous.

And it just so happens that this drama is just a love story in a magical campus in time and space.No political, military or era significance has been given.

It's a romance movie.

There is no problem at all, so the review can almost be said to be passed with eyes closed.

And for mainland fans, this six months is actually quite a happy event... because Jay Chou may come here often.

Come here for at least three to four days a week... on the one hand to make movies, on the other hand to start normal commercial performances according to some routes formulated by mainland brokerage companies.

but……

"Hey, I already have a theme for my new album."

Hearing this, let alone Xu Xin, even Yang Mi was shocked:
"So fast!?"

"That's right, it's faster when the inspiration comes... For this album, I want to focus on American country style!"

"..."

"..."

Xu Xin twitched the corner of his mouth and asked:
"Just... cowboys, guitars, riding boots?"

"Yes. The title of the song already exists, it's called "Cowboys Are Busy"! And the song "The Longest Movie" is also in it~ How about it, lyricist, are you happy?"

"Are you busy?"

"It's just... okay."

"Nubi."

Xu Xin let out a sincere sigh.

Movies, new albums, and commercial performances... Oh yes, and management of the company...

The energy is really strong.

It's scary to think about it.

So busy... If I want this time, I might as well accompany my sister.

but……

"Hey, that Guo Caijie, how is it?"

"Well, yes, let me listen to it. I recorded a demo two days ago."

Jay Chou took out his mobile phone, found an MP3 file, and clicked to play it.

After another signature piano sound, the girl's voice sounded:

"If you also heard~ have you ever thought about me~ like an old friend..."

"nice."

Yang Mi was a little surprised and said:
"Good to hear."

"right?"

Jay Chou immediately smiled, and then looked at Xu Xin:
"Hey, Ah Xin, let me tell you... I found a treasure~ Her voice is very clean, Brother Junrong is full of praise after hearing it~ Although there are still some flaws, this song has been selected as the title song of the album Wen Shan and I personally worked on the album..."

"You wait a minute..."

Xu Xin stopped him from continuing to talk happily:

"You tell me first... when is she going to release the album?"

"Uh... probably around June. In June she releases her album, which is Jewel's first move, then our movie in July and August, and then... September, before September, my album They will also come out. In the second half of the year, I don’t dare to talk about the mainland, but here... I want the headlines in the entire entertainment industry, and there is only one name!"

"... Xiao Yaxuan?"

Like a ghost, Xu Xin said the name.

"It's... fart!!"

Jay Chou thought that Ah Xin would tacitly follow him and call out the name "Jewel".But who knows how he came up with such a sentence.

"It's Jewell!!"

"I thought it was Xiao Yaxuan who quit cursing..."

"What does it have to do with her Hum... In short, that's how it was arranged. Before Brother Junrong wants to get back the copyright of my song, I have to pay Alpha, so I can only participate in commercial performances like one song or two songs." , The concert is too much money. It just happens to be able to push others out, an album, a movie, plus my own album, it will definitely be a hit~”

"Fine……"

"What about you? What are your plans?"

"Busy about the Olympics."

"Well……"

Hearing this, Jay Chou nodded:
"Mimi, how are you?"

"Acting in a drama, in the second half of the year, I plan to tear Lin Daiyu up with others."

"...???"

Seeing Jay Chou's puzzled face, Yang Mi didn't explain much.

After all, the matter of "Dream of Red Mansions" is still in the confidential stage.

Take it out as a joke and say it.

soon.

The commercial vehicle arrives at the airport.

After getting off the car, the two waved their hands at Jay Chou:

"Go back."

"Well, there are a lot of paparazzi here, let's go first~ Let's text chat."

The two commercial vehicles drove away in a low-key manner.

Xu Xin lit a cigarette, and also waved to Sun Ting and his girlfriend:

"Goodbye."

Yang Mi didn't say much.

It is indeed necessary to pay attention to this aspect.

So he took Sun Ting directly into the airport.

Xu Xin, on the other hand, finished smoking a cigarette before pushing his suitcase into the airport.

Along the way, the two of them maintained a restrained and polite distance, from getting on the plane, to getting off the plane, and then driving away.

Finally, the confluence at home is done.

……

"Is Tingting going on vacation?"

"Ah."

Using "I'll be back tomorrow" as an excuse, the girl who was able to stay with her boyfriend for another night tonight responded.

At the same time, he tirelessly helped him choose clothes of different colors.

These will be washed in a while.

In order to prevent staining, it has to be washed separately and matched with different detergents, which is very troublesome.

Before her absence, Xu Xin scrapped clothes quite quickly.

I didn't pay attention to any piece of clothing because it wasn't in order, and it lost color and dyed a bucket of other clothes.

Then this bucket of clothes can't be taken anymore, no matter how much it costs, you have to throw away what should be thrown away.

Then go to sweep a batch and come back and continue to wear.

But since the two of them started dating, how to sort the clothes, how to wash them... It was almost all done by Yang Mi herself.

It was not Xu Xin's turn to worry about it.

This also leads to a situation...

Whether it is Xidan or New World, the counter sisters of some big brand counters have found that... the frequency of visits by the God of Wealth has been greatly reduced...so that they can get a lot less commission.

But there is no way... Yang Mi's habit of living is like this.

Although the food she cooks now is quite unpalatable...Xu Xin is not willing to let her suffer from the oily smoke.She always talks about going out to eat...but as long as she is here, she always likes to buy a la carte, and the two of them mess around for a meal.

For example, pork ribs, one meal is made salty, and the other meal is sweetened, and each meal begins to adapt to everyone's taste.

This is called home.

And the state of the two of them at this moment is enough to make the female boxer glassy.

Xu Xin sat on the sofa smoking and drinking tea like an old man, and Yang Mi squatted in front of the three suitcases to pack her clothes... No matter how you looked at her status, it looked like the truest reflection of machismo and disadvantaged women.

But in fact... Ever since Mr. Xu Sanjin made a negligence, he accidentally threw a red lace and pearl-studded sexy bra that he bought for his girlfriend into the washing machine, and dyed a bucket of T-shirts red.

He was deprived of the right to use the washing machine in this home.

Because in the bucket of clothes, there were cotton T-shirts worn by the girl the night the two confessed their love in Hengdian.

It is a T-shirt with great commemorative value, and it can be used to recall the good memories when you are old.

In the end, he was abruptly washed into a camouflage uniform of red, red, blue, or blue by Mr. Xu Sanjin...

But it made her feel bad.

So...Your old man has a far-reaching mind, as long as he is far away from the washing machine, it will be over.

And she was squatting to pick clothes, after hearing her boyfriend's words, she said:

"It's a holiday today. I'm thinking about wrapping a year-end bonus red envelope for Tingting tomorrow. Anyway, the company didn't give it as if it didn't... What do you think?"

"How did your company pick up Soso?"

I don't care about how much the year-end bonus package is...

He doesn't feel bad even if he packs a 200 million yuan.

He was just very speechless about Rong Xinda's picky attitude.

"Employees have worked hard for a year, so don't you give them more year-end bonuses?"

"It's not that I won't give it. The main assistant is not considered a regular employee. It is said that the year-end bonus is based on the year. The longer you join the company, the more you will be given. Tingting, who only came in this year, can have a year-end bonus of 1000 yuan." That’s not bad. You’re like Auntie Cleaning. A cleaning lady has been in the company for five or six years. The year-end bonus is [-] a month, and the year-end bonus is seven to eight thousand. It’s just a cleaning..."

"That's too picky, isn't it?"

"Otherwise, why do you think Zhou Xun left?"

"What about Chen Kun? Why doesn't he leave?"

"I can't leave. He has a ten-year contract. It will only expire in 10 years."

"Well……"

Hearing this, Xu Xin thought for a while and said:
"How much is Tingting's monthly salary?"

"I mentioned five thousand, but the account still goes through the company, and I have to file a tax return."

"They still use your money tax-free?"

Xu Xin was dumbfounded...

"This is a formal process. Don't complain...you can just say how much is appropriate. Ten thousand, how about it?"

"Sixty thousand directly, according to one year's payment."

"..."

Yang Mi's mouth twitched:
"Brother, are you crazy?"

"You don't need to give it, I'll do it."

"I can't. It's troublesome... It can't be like this. I will give [-] in the first year, how much will I have to pay in the future? How can I do this... I think [-] is enough. If you give too much, the news will spread, and I will not be able to do well in the company in the future." .”

"Then you'll give me [-], and I'll give the rest. Don't keep judging the outside world. When you employ people, you must distinguish between your own people and outsiders. In front of outsiders, you must first pay attention to face and block others' mouths. There's nothing wrong with that. But you can't be mean when you talk to your own people, you know? If you don't give enough money, why should others work for you?"

"Well……"

Yang Mi thought for a while, then nodded:
"That makes sense. Uncle Xu taught you again?"

"That's right... So, the year-end bonus is [-] yuan to silence other people, but you have to give it to others in private. Only when others take the money can they follow you wholeheartedly. It's useless to just paint cakes."

"……ok, I get it."

She didn't mean that she was reluctant to part with the tens of thousands of dollars.

The resources of "The Unspeakable Secret" are her own, but they haven't gone through the company, and the company doesn't use a penny for the transportation expenses. At least 50 million yuan of this money falls into her own hands after tax and share.

Now that you have decided to give it, then give it.

Brother is right, he is so open to outsiders, and he can't be shy about his own people.

While thinking about it, suddenly, suddenly, she heard Xu Xin say:
"If you want me to say... let's forget about this company."
