I'm the director, I'm not bad

Chapter 158. 156. Hit No and Sing
If Xu Xin was asked to summarize his impressions of the 2007 Spring Festival Gala, the one that impressed him the most might be the sketch by Mr. Benshan and Song Dandan.

Especially the phrase "a rooster that lays eggs is a fighter among roosters~".

I was particularly impressed.

Spring Festival Gala... Not to mention, it's really Uncle Benshan.

Others really can't.

However, when watching this sketch, he deeply believed in what his father said:

"Without Fan Wei, there is less taste..."

After 12 o'clock, after the dumplings were finished, Xu Xin was finally able to sleep.

On the first day of the new year, after the hustle and bustle of offering sacrifices to ancestors, Xu Xin and a group of young children followed the rules and started to pay New Year's greetings from door to door, asking for lucky money.

Everyone is carrying a schoolbag.

After working hard all morning, I went home with hundreds of thousands of dollars on my back...

Their unmarried children can receive lucky money, and they don't have to give it out.

Even if you meet some little nephews and nieces, you don't have to give it.

However, when his girlfriend sent the ostentatious message "I have received more than 1 yuan in New Year's money this year", he did not reply, but took a photo of the "tower" on the coffee table and sent it to his girlfriend.

I got the reply of "..." from my girlfriend.

In the next few days, Xu Xin basically lived drunkenly and dreamily.

Shooting cannons, playing cards, driving to the county town to play.

In a blink of an eye, the sixth day arrived.

Visible to the naked eye, some people have already started to go to work.

And Xu Xin was no exception. At noon on the sixth day, Xu Daqiang made another meal of sour soup dumplings filled with mutton for his son. After eating, Xu Xin set off on his way home.

Oh yes, I also brought two sheep that were slaughtered in the morning, quick-frozen, and sealed in vacuum bags.

Both sheep were divided into small bags and stuffed into two suitcases.

As a result, when Xu Xin went to check in his luggage, the ground attendant who checked in looked at Xu Xin like a perverted murderer.

It was finally confirmed that it was indeed mutton before it was given.

Of these two sheep, one is for Yu Zhen and the other is for his girlfriend's family.

Xu Daqiang originally said that he would send it to Director Zhang... but considering that it was a team... he had to send at least ten sheep to start, otherwise he would show favoritism, so he decided to come to Yanjing for this matter by himself in two days When it comes to gift giving.

Xu Xin took the two sheep and left first.

……

Speechless all the way.

After arriving in Yanjing, he found the A6 at the airport, and the girl wearing a mask who was standing next to the A6 and smiling at him.

"Hee hee~ Happy New Year, Gong Xi Fa Cai, here are the red envelopes!"

Xu Xin was also happy.

He didn't have a red envelope, but the hug was big.

Holding his girlfriend whom he hadn't seen for a long time in his arms, smelling the familiar fragrance, Xu Xin breathed a sigh of relief, his heart began to wander, biting her ear, and said amidst the goosebumps visible to the naked eye of his girlfriend:

"More than half a month, it's going to explode..."

"..."

Yang Mi's heart began to tremble when she heard these words.

Nod:
"Well... let's go home first..."

"No, I have to go to Teacher Yu's first. I'm bringing sheep for Teacher Yu and my uncles and aunts."

"No matter! Go home first..."

"……Um!"

Don't say that Xu Xin is uncomfortable, she wants to too.

Then go home first.

The main thing is that it will be daytime, so it’s not good to be in the car, right?
then……

Three suitcases, one in the trunk and two in the back seat, Xu Xin muttered:

"Let's take a look at the SUV these two days, how about it?"

Looking at the crowded cars, after he finished speaking, Yang Mi urged:
"Oh, where are you talking so much nonsense, hurry up!"

Then, before he could touch the steering wheel in the car, he was hugged by his girlfriend around the neck.

He gnawed all the silk and let him go.

Then there was a slapping sound from the urgent co-pilot.

The girl patted the center console of the co-pilot and urged:

"Let's go, let's go home! The shower I took before I came to pick you up..."

"Well... I haven't washed it yet."

"I'll wash with you, hurry up! Miss me~~~"

"...Hehehehe~"

……

Although it was urgent, Yu Zhen's house was the only way to get from the airport to Xu Xin's house.

Xu Xin still decided to take a trip.

Send the sheep over.

At the same time, a suitcase can also be unloaded in the car.

At first, Yang Mi couldn't survive... she felt very shy.

But in the end, she couldn't hold back her boyfriend's tugging. Yu Zhen, who was pushing the box with a blushing face, called out to Teacher Yu in her playful eyes.

But this is a university, not a junior high school, and the teachers don't catch puppy love.

Yu Zhen was just confused about what to do with the big box of dismembered mutton.

I don't have that much space at home...

And since he's here, Xu Xin definitely can't just leave after delivering something.

Take the girl and sit on the sofa at Yu Zhen's house and chat there.

"Teacher Yu, is there any news about the review?"

"No."

Yu Zhen who poured tea for her two students shook her head:
"But I guess there should be news before the [-]th day. Let's watch it after work on the [-]th day, right? Director Zhang must be notified first if there is any news, and then Director Zhang will notify us."

"……There should be no problem?"

Hearing Xu Xin's worried words, Yu Zhen was a little puzzled:
"Why? Why do you suddenly have no confidence in yourself?"

"No, I'm not worried..."

"There is no need to worry. Even if there is something that the leader is not satisfied with in a certain link, let's just change it. There are dozens of plans out there. The leader said no, not to deny it completely, but to provide you with a direction guide Opinion. Just go down this road."

"...Will it all be denied... What I'm worried about is this."

After finishing speaking, Xu Xin might feel a little ridiculous, so he quickly shook his head:

"It's not that I said unlucky words, but... I'm afraid. In the past few days, this idea has been circling in my mind..."

"Certainly not, how is it possible?"

Yu Zhen was a little speechless, and felt that this student was thinking too much, and felt that he was "nervous".

"Think about it, from the four major inventions of the big proposition, to the countless small links that interact with the world, we have everything we should have, how can we deny it all...Let me tell you what we listen to...leader... Is it possible that you know more about art than us? Right?"

She shook her head, looked at her student who hesitated to speak, and waved her hand:
"Don't worry. Absolutely no problem!"

Seeing that Teacher Yu had said so, Xu Xin put his heart in his stomach.

He may not believe what others say, but Teacher Yu said this... Teacher Yu will definitely not lie to himself.

Having said that, the probability of this happening is very small.

What Teacher Yu said is very reasonable.

Can leaders still have Zhang Dao who understands art?

Right.

……

After sitting at the teacher's house for a while, the two got up and said goodbye.

I don't know if it's hot or what, but my little girlfriend's face is flushed and looks like a peach blossom.

then……

There is no more.

She said, wash with Xu Xin.

Wash it when you get home.

It just takes a long time to wash.

The cuckoo clock on the wall kept ringing.

Same as singing.

And after taking a shower, during the interim break, Xu Xin specially opened the box of lamb chops that had been disassembled, and picked out half a lamb chop according to his girlfriend's taste.

Throw it directly into the big stuffy jar, don't add any onion, ginger cooking wine or the like.

Fresh lamb doesn't need this.

Throw it into the pot, unscrew the stove, and put it in the middle of the fire.

Then he threw a randomly cut radish into the stuffy jar and left it alone.The main body was wearing pajamas, no pants, and his legs were a little cold.

But just as he was about to walk out of the kitchen, he pondered for a while... He dug out a handful of goji berries from the cabinet and threw them into the pot.

Mmm, perfect!

After finishing his work in the kitchen, he smiled and pushed open the door of the bedroom, and saw the chopstick legs with two white knee socks at a glance.

Xu Xin didn't know what other people were like with that white and rosy appearance.

Anyway, he couldn't stand it for half a minute.

"Hey hey, female benefactor..."

Hearing this title, Yang Mi also said:

"What are you doing, Elder Tang~"

The sound is crisp and soft.

The light shines through the gap between the toes, which are more flexible than hands, and looks crystal clear.

Or an actor.

Act like what you want.

Take a look, isn't this a vixen?

……

That night.

It's ten o'clock.

Ho!
It's sunny!

A pot of stewed extremely soft lamb chops, a plate of dipping water with chili, onion, garlic, coriander, and soy sauce and vinegar.

Each person gets a bowl of radish clear noodle soup with a few goji berries floating on top.

This is the dinner for the young couple at night...or supper.

And Yang Mi on TV...or Wang Zhaojun's innocence is completely different from the girl sitting in front of the TV holding a lamb chop and eating there.

"Don't tell me...you look so tender..."

"...What's this called? It means I'm not tender now?"

"Of course not, but at this moment, she looks like a little girl."

"... That's true. Look at my face, how tender~ I feel like I'll be full of water when I pinch it..."

"There are quite a lot now."

"Uh……"

Hearing her boyfriend's words, the girl thought for a while and nodded.

indeed.

Especially today.

"Hey, how is my acting?"

She changed a glove and asked while putting it on.

"It's quite young... Who is the director of this film?"

"Chen Jialin. Director Chen, "The Kangxi Dynasty."

"No wonder..."

Xu Xin nodded:
"I can tell at a glance that I will use you. Whether it's the capture angle or the camera switching, this kind of rigid feeling can highlight your innocence."

"Really? Director Chen is also one of my benefactors."

""Tang Minghuang", right?"

"Yeah. He didn't recognize me at the time... Hehe, I only told him about this after I joined the group. He was stunned at the time, and the first sentence was: I've grown up so much."

While speaking, she picked up another lamb chop, dipped it in some water, and started to chew.

The mutton from my boyfriend's house... I really didn't say anything.

It's really not the same thing.

It tastes so good.

"How's the ratings?"

"It's okay in the late-night file... Actually, let me tell you, I was quite excited when I was filming. This is the first time I played the leading role... I was still thinking about what if this drama became a big hit. How about it. But now it seems..."

Looking at herself in the TV series, she shook her head:

"But now that I think about it, there is a reason why the drama "Wang Zhaojun" can only be put on the late-night show. The emotional line is too messy and thin. And the version of the character I played in the script is not deep enough, and... I vaguely remember the location scene I filmed for a long time. If you look at it this way, more of her content is not after the fortress... so the positioning feels a bit awkward."

"Yo? Yes."

Xu Xin was quite surprised:

"You know how to criticize yourself?"

"Look...but the ratings for the first episode of this show were quite high, a little over...but I think it should be the effect of seeking a girl. These few episodes have obviously dropped back, hovering around 1...I Don't care anymore."

While talking, she gnawed another lamb chop.

Meat is enough.

Throwing the bones aside, he shouted:
"Brother, get me some minced meat, I'll eat noodles."

"Ah."

Xu Xin began to help her break up the meat on the lamb chops and put them in a bowl.

"When is "Nie Xiaoqian" broadcast? Which channel?"

"Guangdong TV, it will start broadcasting in April. Hmm... Speaking of which, when will the rumors of martial arts be broadcast?"

Hearing this, Xu Xin thought for a while and said:
"According to this progress, I guess no matter what happens, it will be the end of the year. Think about it, the filming is not finished yet... Let's follow the most reasonable plan, such as wrapping up in April. With so many episodes, the editing of the soundtrack also has to be done. It will take some effort. You still have to find a buyer, and schedule...however, it will be the end of the year."

"Then if it's available at the end of the year, it's like three TV series and one movie for me this year?"

"Hmm..."Wang Zhaojun", "Nie Xiaoqian", "Wulin Biography"..."The Unspeakable Secret" is really three plays and one movie. Hey, big star, yes."

He smiled and put a large piece of lamb chops into his girlfriend's noodle bowl:

"Yang Mi Nian?"

"...What do you mean?"

Obviously, Yang Mi didn't quite understand what her boyfriend meant.

In fact, Xu Xin didn't know how this word came out, so he simply described it:
"That is, you have four works appearing this year, and you can be seen in TV dramas and movies...you are going to be popular!"

"Goose goose goose goose goose goose goose..."

These words hit Yang Mi's heart.

She couldn't stop laughing.

But she felt that her boyfriend was just joking.

How can it be so easy to catch fire...

Both "Wang Zhaojun" and "Liao Zhai" were filmed two years ago. Judging from the current point of view, there is no acting skills... nothing more than eccentric and innocent.

This drama is estimated to be criticized by people.

Although "The Unspeakable Secret" is the second female lead, strictly speaking, the scenes are all bitch contestants who cause conflicts in the plot.

"Wulin Biography" is also a supporting role, it will come out after [-] or [-] episodes, and the scenes are all just to lead the way.

Why is it so easy to catch fire?

but……

It still sounded happy.

It's not in vain for me to serve you so much this year~
smelly brother~
……

More than 11 o'clock.

After the young couple finished their supper, Yang Mi knew that although her father hadn't called yet...but he must be in a hurry.

So wipe your mouth:

"I'm leaving."

"Ah."

Xu Xin responded:
"I'll put the suitcase in your car."

"Take it easy, don't knock me down."

She loves her little car very much.

Not a 911, but a 350Z.

After all, it was given by my father.

Although after driving the 911, driving the 350Z is like driving a bumper car... But it is dad's little padded jacket after all. In order to prevent dad from blowing his beard and staring at his future son-in-law, she usually drives this car most of the time car.

"Know it."

Carrying the suitcase, Xu Xin carefully placed it on the co-pilot's seat for her.

The box is big, this car has the same virtues as the 911, and there is no storage space.

Sitting in the main driver again, I got out of the car after making sure that the box did not block the view of the mirror on the right:

"Okay."

"Well, then I'm leaving... Hugs..."

At the door of the house, the two hugged each other.

Xu Xin smelled her body fragrance and said:
"How about...don't go back..."

"Dream you, do you want my dad to arrest you in the middle of the night... I'm leaving, I'll come to you tomorrow. Are you going to the editing company during the day tomorrow?"

"Yes. I've been busy all morning, sorting out the fine-cut shots. The 77 minutes of the rough cut are just the main story line, and some detailed scenes have to be arranged as soon as possible. Edit quickly. Jay Chou came on the tenth day of the lunar new year, and he had to get detailed data before he could go. Tokyo, and then..."

"Oh, Elder Tang, Elder Tang...don't read it. I know you're busy and I'll be in touch tomorrow afternoon, so I hurried away..."

"...Okay, drive slowly and wear your seat belt."

"understood."

Amidst the roar of the car, the girl waved her hand and left directly.

Satisfied with all her heart and soul, she drove all the way to the gate of the community, humming a song, and as expected, she saw her father holding a flashlight.

So she dropped the window:
"Dad, why did you come out again... This car light is much brighter than the flashlight."

"You know how to come back?"

Yang Dalin glared at the girl angrily:
"Why don't you come back the next day?"

The girl said in her heart that I really want to... just because I am afraid that you will break my dog's leg.

Then I saw Dad open the car door:
"Come on, the parking spaces are full, Dad will find you a place... what is this?"

Looking at the suitcase that took up a lot of space on the co-pilot, Yang Dalin was a little puzzled.

"The sheep Xu Xin brought you is delicious."

After the girl finished speaking, Yang Dalin nodded:

"Then you follow me and go."

"Come on, I'll open the trunk and you get in the car."

"Nonsense, the rear door won't close tightly, and the pole is easy to break."

"Not so..."

Yang Mi just spoke, but Yang Dalin had already turned on the flashlight and walked into the community on his own.

"Hey...Dad...Dad?...Oh, it's really..."

She had no choice but to drive behind.

At a very slow speed, I followed my dad to find an open space above the curb.

As a result, I stopped two, but I still can't wipe it in...

"dad……"

"Tell me how stupid you are. You can't get in such a big space... I don't know how you manage to park on the side."

The complaint from the old father and the disgusted expression deeply "stinged" the girl's heart.

However, Dad is still the almighty Dad.

The parking space that I obviously couldn't park in, my dad drove out and reversed in, and the car was parked flawlessly.

"Dad! Your level... is too good!!"

Listening to his daughter's tone of admiration, Yang Dalin waved his hands with a calm expression on his face:
"Functionally."

"It's too awesome, it's too awesome."

"……Um."

Although his face was still calm, he couldn't hide the pride in his eyes.

He unloaded the heavy suitcase from the co-pilot, and he walked home with the suitcase in one hand and the girl in the other.

As he walked, he asked:
"Why are you back so late? Why did you go?"

"I went to the movies. Didn't we get together on Valentine's Day, make it up."

"...Well, come earlier next time. If you don't go home at [-] or [-], it's so dangerous outside."

"Know it……"

……

In fact, Xiantao Digital has not started work yet.

But Cheng Long, as a partner, also gave Xu Xin face. He came to the company on the seventh day of the seventh day and started a shift ahead of schedule.

The 77-minute rough cut of "The Unspeakable Secret" is the kind of splicing without any technical content.

It just put together all the story shots of the main line, told a complete story, and established an editing framework for the film.

What is really delicate is the natural switching and transformation of each editing shot, and how to render according to the director's idea, as well as some close-ups, related clips, and clips that enhance the atmosphere. This is the delicate work.

According to Xu Xin's prediction, the film should be about 1 hour and 50 minutes long, excluding the end credits.

During the whole morning, he was mainly talking with Cheng Long about the concept of fine cutting, and he had already demonstrated his ideas through several examples on the spot.

Cheng Long, who has the same name as his elder brother, is no doubt a gold medal editor. Once Xu Xin said it, people would understand.

Not only do you understand, but people can even guess what you want to say after connecting.

Give Xu Xin an image of a peerless master who has read all over the world's porn and has reached the realm of uncensored in his heart.

But if you think about it carefully...the movies that others have watched may be more than the roads that I have traveled.

Also relieved.

After all, he is not a professional editor... To put it in the most realistic terms, he doesn't even know what the software on this computer is or how to use it.

After all... the person Director Zhang found is really good.

Although he couldn't read it...but it was really powerful.

This is what he felt when he saw Yang Mi in the afternoon.

He didn't feel it in the rough cutting stage, but in the fine cutting stage, he felt emotional when he saw the virtue of others understanding what he meant before he finished speaking.

It made Yang Mi think that he was going to be an editor...

But this thing is just talking and laughing.

She is an actress, she just needs to play her part well.As for the director's affairs, even if you ask her to intervene, she won't be able to intervene.

Without this diamond, this porcelain work cannot be done.

But she has to admit that she admires her boyfriend's inadvertent curiosity.

Curious about everything.

Want to try everything.

It's like a slap in the face...

……

The tenth day of the Lunar New Year.

January 07, 2 in the Gregorian calendar.

In February, before the day of the tip of the tail, after a few months of rest, all the opening ceremony teams that looked refreshed gathered in the Olympic Building.

Had the first meeting of the new year.

At the meeting, Zhang Yimou directly shook his head on the question of whether the case had passed the trial that everyone was most concerned about, saying that he had not received any news.But it should be just around the corner, so don't worry.

Then there is the task assignment.

Now that the plan has been formulated, it is time for the implementation of each link.

From the beginning of the year, whether it is art troupes or soldiers, these people will be on standby at any time, and whether it is Chen Weiya or Zhang Wu, they will start choreographing dances and rehearsing phalanxes.

The selection and training of these dancers are all in the charge of the team.

In addition, the production of several major link props that have been reported in advance and passed the review will also start.

The first is the most important prop production: Fou.

Last year, because Director Zhang firmly opposed the use of big drums, red silk and other elements, the people in the team argued for several days because there was no need to use drums for such a big scene.

Some experts were also invited to study.

Everyone says drums are better.

However, Zhang Yimou, as the chief director, disagreed.

I also took out the black history commercials I shot before to show others, and let them see what kind of disaster it is to use 2008 drums in this scene.

And it turned out to be disastrous indeed.

The scene of hundreds of thousands of people playing drums... Director Zhang himself has done this, not to mention the others.

To be damned if it looks good.

Besides, maybe Zhang Yimou didn't say it, but everyone knew it.He is trying his best to avoid all the elements in the dark 8 minutes of Athens.

Including walking on stilts, Yangko, drums, red lanterns, Peking Opera and more.

Then everyone will study it.

Several ancient instruments were studied.

At first it was "柷".

An ancient musical instrument, a funnel-shaped thing without a drumhead.

Everyone thinks this is okay...then I found a historian to ask...this thing is not used by the Chinese, but the Koreans are using it.

As a former dependent country, they have a set of "orthodox" attack methods inherited from the Celestial Dynasty.

And if people from our side use it, in case something goes wrong with the Korean side...

The expert did not say so.

But Koreans have been making a lot of noise about "Confucius is ours" and "Dragon Boat Festival is ours" in recent years.

At that time, I may not know what is going on.

"柷" was directly rejected.

And there are many more of the same things. Everyone searched around and found... Although these ancient musical instruments are no longer used by the Chinese dynasty, other countries still hold them like national treasures and continue to this day.No matter which one is used incorrectly, it may cause a "joke" and scratch the head directly.

However, Huang Tian paid off, the things left by the ancestors... there are too many.

Finally, let the team members find a gadget called "Fou".

Hit the Fou and the "Fou" in the song.

This thing, first, has a long history.Unearthed with the chime.

Second, no one will use it... not many people have even seen it.

Third, other countries did not "take" it.

All of a sudden, it was in line with everyone's wishes.

But there is also a problem, that is... other than knowing that this thing is a percussion instrument, it doesn't know anything else.

How to knock, how to hit, how to make a sound...

no one knows.

I found a bunch of experts, and went to the magic city to investigate on the spot, and found that apart from what looked like a copper jar with two ears, I didn't know anything else.

So, Director Zhang waved his hand:
"change."

I found a group of experts to study and discuss, and finally I probably got a concept, and I want to come up with something with the "sound of gold and stone".

This thing is Fou!
Anyway, others don't know how to use it. As the suzerain country, we are what we say.

Then after a while of research on beating and beating, I finally settled on a beating method like a drum, but there are some changes and differences in the sound and position.

It was decided years ago, but I haven't seen the real thing. I asked people from the Hongying Percussion Orchestra to study, but because it was the end of the year at that time, I couldn't make a sample.

It can only be set in the next year.

And Xu Xin's first task at the beginning of the year was to go and see what they had made with Fan Yue and Jiang Haoyang.

going on a business trip.

Go to the prop production factory in Hebei for two days.

I left after the meeting that day.

We stayed for two and a half days.

Go at noon on the 27th and return at night on the 1st.

It was nothing...

Along the way, Xu Xin chatted and laughed with Director Fan and Director Jiang. Everyone was very relaxed.

But I have seen the Yanjing toll booth.

Fan Yue's phone rang.

Xu Xin turned down the music, and then he heard Director Fan answer the phone:

"Hey, Xiaowei, we are walking back... What are you talking about!?"

Xu Xin and Jiang Haoyang were taken aback by his raised voice.

Then, at a speed visible to the naked eye, Fan Yue's face became stiff, and even stammered:

"No... no!?"

?

A hint of doubt appeared in Xu Xin's eyes.

缶？
What's wrong with Fou?
Isn't it good?

The sound, usage, etc. are also good...

What's wrong with Fou?
　Fourteen thousand three!Ask for a monthly ticket! ! ! !
