Casting?
Qi Lei's mind suddenly changed.
Director Xu means...
Seeing that he seemed a little confused, Xu Xin said calmly:
"What she is looking for is a backer. To put it bluntly, for example, I am not from our factory...Forget it, don't use me as an analogy. Let's just talk about Director Zhang... .. Nowadays, people call Director Zhang "National Master". Director Zhang's popularity... In other words, Director Zhang's fame can no longer be measured by popularity, but is a symbol that represents our entertainment industry internationally. ,right? "
"right."
"What if he is going to start a new drama? Does it mean that as soon as the news gets out, the whole circle will be excited?"
"That's for sure. I didn't mention it before. Now with Director Zhang's energy, if he opens a new drama... not to mention the actors, the company will have to start working with all its strength."
"Look, at this time, let's put aside the artistry and just look at it purely from a business perspective. Mr. Qi, you are Director Zhang. Now the hostess is Liang Bingning or Li Bingbing. Which one do you choose?"
"..."
Qi Lei thought for a while and said:
"I will definitely choose Li Bingbing. Huayi is not only famous, but also has various hidden resources, such as publicity. It cannot be said that Bona behind Liang Binning does not have these, but it is worse than Huayi. Huayi The series of derivative resources are so powerful. Moreover, as "Director Zhang", I do not lack Bona's distribution and operation resources. "
"This is Liang Bingning's dilemma, isn't it?"
Xu Xin smiled a little playfully.
"She wants to be a capital, otherwise she won't let Bona invest in her. But the problem is that maybe for some ordinary directors, Bona is very attractive as a company that integrates investment and distribution channels. But Liang Binning has passed this At this stage, what she wants is to cooperate with famous directors and act in blockbusters, and these directors are all surrounded by these film and television ancillary functions. That is the so-called resources...
Boehner can make her not short of money for investment, but he cannot be a bridge between her and those big directors and great works. To put it bluntly, she now has people on both ends, but she only lacks the bridge in the middle to both sides, understand? "
Taking a sip of tea while holding the cup, and when Qi Lei refilled the water for him, Xu Xin continued to say after fully understanding that Liang Binning wanted more than just a backer:
"To put it bluntly, what she wants is "fairness" and a fair bidding opportunity. Rather than two people staring at the same character at the same time, she, a "white body", was isolated from her by companies such as Huayi and even Jingquan based on the principle that the meat rots in their own pot, under conditions of equal or even exceeding. "Rebellion" and "unfair" internal digestion of resources.
As for our factory, what she values is this ability. If we rely on it, it won't be a trouble for us, and it won't ask for anything from us. Just give a signal and tell others, "She is one of ours, don't bully her." That's enough. We can compete fairly, but don't let "our people" suffer because of some miscellaneous things. "
He knocked on the table to express the important point.
Xu Xin looked at Qi Lei and said with a smile:
"This is what she wants."
"An umbrella?"
"Yes, an umbrella. An umbrella that protects her from being able to compete fairly with all companies. So..."
Speaking of this, Xu Xin's eyes were full of meaning:
"I have to tell the leaders that there is no need to have any more illusions about Liang Binning. She is not a fool. She wants to become a close coalition of interests... There is no chance, but at least not now. Because our factory is now We can’t give her what she really wants.”
"...."
As Liang Binning's true purpose was analyzed by Xu Xin, Qi Lei said instinctively without thinking:
"When will it be available?"
After saying that, he was stunned.
The answer emerged in my mind.
Let’s wait until when Xi Film Studio can produce a director who is well-known and whose works are hard enough to be invincible in the world, but who can also make deafening noises with just a word...
But then I thought about it...

....
"Ha~ isn't that the time to wait for Director Xu to soar into the sky?"
"..."
Xu Xin, who was about to speak, hesitated...
Then he shook his head funnyly:
"That's what I say, but who knows what the future will bring, right?"
"Everyone has confidence in Director Xu."
"Fortunately, I also have confidence in myself."
"Hahahahaha..."
Qi Lei's laughter echoed throughout the box.
After laughing, Xu Xin said:
"Mr. Qi, you have to talk to the leaders about this matter. As for the casting thing I just asked about. If the leaders think Liang Binning is useful, then give it to her. This thing is a double-edged sword. With this employment contract Now, at least I can tie her up for five years. In these five years, she has become more and more popular... Even without our help, it is all thanks to our efforts. And this is what she needs most... But there is no need to directly Tell me, let’s sit down for dinner tonight, have a chat, and leave this contract matter to me.”
The moment he heard this, Qi Lei understood what Director Xu meant.
How simple.
When it was handed over to Director Xu, Liang Binning mistakenly thought that it was Director Xu who made the decision.
Then Director Xu's status in her heart must be raised to a higher level?
Is it considered a fake but a tiger's power?
Doesn’t count.
This is called win-win.
Everyone got what they wanted.
"Then "The Sound of the Wind"..."
"Li Ningyu's role belongs to her."
There was no need to hide it in front of Qi Lei, Xu Xin said directly:
"A highly educated, beautiful, and glamorous Morse code expert."
Hearing this, Qi Lei nodded:
"Then you, Director Xu, will tell you this...will you be the commander tonight?"
"no problem."
Xu Xin agreed directly.
Then Qi Lei started communicating with the leader, and Xu Xin didn't say anything. Qi Lei was in charge of the whole process.
In this matter, Qi Lei needed the "reward" from Xiying Studio more than he did.
Therefore, when Qi Lei turned on the speaker phone and made no attempt to hide it, Xu Xin already understood what he was thinking.
Again.
This is called win-win.
However, he still sent a message to Yang Mi:
"Li Ningyu's role belongs to her."
Yang Mi’s reply was also very simple:
"Leave it to me, Gu Xiaomeng."
"good."
After finally hanging up the phone, Xu Xin got his "chip."
Deputy director of the Actors Troupe of Xiying Studio Art Center.
Officially compiled.
The kind that requires pensioners and insurance.
Although the current actors at Xiying Studio...except for one Jiang Wenli, none of them would be recognized by a hundred viewers.
But not important.
All you need to know is that this is the establishment of Xiying Studio.
Deputy Head.
This job title is enough.
.....
"Teacher Liang, we meet again. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you."
6:30 pm.
When Liang Bingning walked into the box at the appointed time, she saw that she had taken off her mask and had specially put on a light makeup. She was wearing a black slim-fitting dress, her slim curves were vaguely visible, and she was so beautiful.
Have to admit...
Her face and figure are really impressive.
Xu Xin and Qi Lei sighed and stood up from the dining table to greet each other with a smile.
The moment the two of them stood up, Liang Binning quickened her pace and came towards them.
The same goes for Mu Xiaoguang who followed behind.
"Director Xu, it's a pleasure to meet you... Maybe it was the lighting yesterday, but today I realized that Director Xu is not only talented, but also much more handsome than he looks on TV."
Holding the hand, Xu Xin smiled unusually implicitly when he heard Liang Binning's words:
"Don't praise me, Teacher Liang, you are really beautiful!

"
"Ha~ If Director Xu could stop calling me this name, maybe I would smile brighter."
Liang Binning smiled and suddenly stretched out her hand again:
"Hello, Director Xu, my name is Liang Binning. If you don't mind, you can call me Bingbing or Bingning."
Hearing this, Xu Xin didn't show any pretense and held it again.
Still very gentlemanly, he just held his fingers, nodded and said:
"Hello, Sister Bingbing, my name is Xu Xin."
"Nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you."
"Formal meeting" is officially completed.
Then Liang Binning greeted Qi Lei again, Xu Xin greeted Mu Xiaoguang, and Mu Xiaoguang greeted Qi Lei again...
Anyway.
After greetings, both parties took their seats.
After sitting down, Liang Binning handed over the right to order:
"Mr. Qi, Director Xu, we are just guests and hosts, and everything will be at your discretion."
"Okay, then let's just eat some...Audragon, let's take two first. I want a Double Dragon to go to sea..."
Qi Lei took the menu and started ordering.
While he was ordering, Liang Binning, who was wiping her hands with hot towels, tilted her head politely and asked Xu Xin softly on the other side of the round table:
"Director Xu didn't drink too much last night, right?"
"Well... I guess I drank too much."
Xu Xin finally remembered the lie he told last night when he was walking down the stairs, "I don't have a good drinking capacity", and explained like a donkey down the slope:
"It's actually fine for me to drink domestic wine, even if the alcohol content is higher. But if the brewing method of Daiginjo is different from domestic wine, you will get drunk very quickly."
"That's it...I said last night that although it was a bit presumptuous, I had drunk some wine at the time and my reaction was a little slower. I should have left a driver to take care of Director Xu and Teacher Lang Lang. Mr. Wang's .”
Following these words, an indescribable aroma came over.
Today's dining table is not big. After all, there are only four people eating. The table that is too big looks empty.
After smelling this smell and hearing these words, Xu Xin's expression did not change:
"That's too polite, but yesterday we said we would meet together next time, and we met today. It's quite fate, right?"
"Ha, of course...but it's not fate. Who makes me a fan of Director Xu?"
As she spoke, she put down the hot towel and held up three fingers:
"I have read "The Secret That Cannot Be Told" three times."
"Haha~"
Xu Xin did not worry about whether this was true or not, and nodded with a smile:
"That's a real fan. Today I have to toast Sister Bingbing, thank you for your support."
"No, no, no, fans feel like old friends when they meet their idols, so we have to drink this glass of wine together."
Liang Bing smiled sweetly.
I have to admit that people who can get into this position have really strong communication skills.
Xu Xin has already seen her chatting style.
Don't take the lead. But there is her in every topic.
From small talk to the question of "what to drink" during cold dishes.
And when he decided to drink liquor, he said "Then I will sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman" as a compliment.
Knowing that this occasion is a business occasion.
But it is true that from speaking to communicating, she can show her quite powerful and impressive skills.
The first cup of wine serves as the opening act and is eaten with chopsticks.
While everyone was chatting enthusiastically, Xu Xin was thinking unconsciously.
Although this way of chatting with "friends" is very desirable, how should we talk about "official business" for a while?
We are friends, wouldn't it be awkward to discuss business matters?
How should Liang Bingning speak?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Mu Xiaoguang, who seemed to be just a "foil".
Could it be...
It's him?
Are the two of them playing a duet and singing opposite each other?
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard Mu Xiaoguang's words: "Director Xu, Mr. Qi, I'd like to toast you two."
Xu Xin pressed down

『』, update the latest chapters as soon as possible!
With that thought in his heart, Qi Lei and Qi Lei smiled and raised the cup.
After a mouthful of Moutai, as expected, Mu Xiaoguang spoke:
"Director Xu is really young and promising..."
He sighed with emotion:
"I met my nephew a few days ago. I didn't know Director Xu at that time, so I was chatting with him. I said, look at Director Xu Xin. You are about the same age as him. Look at his achievements. Look at you, you know how to play games every day... Forget about him, Director Xu makes me ashamed."
Are you starting to put a high hat on yourself?
Xu Xin chuckled in his heart.
I said in my heart that if you really tell your nephew what you said, I will write the word "Xu" backwards.
But at this time, Qi Lei saw that the time was "almost" and knew that it was time for the two of them to know who was the winner in tonight's round.
So he nodded:
"Yeah, think about the situation when I met Director Xu, and look at it now...it's really touching. Not only myself, but everyone in our factory also treats Director Xu very much. Valued."
Stop after saying this.
Just express your meaning clearly.
This time, Xu Xin just said modestly:
"No, no, don't you have to thank the leaders for their trust?"
After saying that, he started counting in his mind.
1, 2, 3, 4...
After four counts, Mu Xiaoguang suddenly asked:
"Director Xu, there is only one Paralympic left in the Olympics, right?"
"Yes, the Paralympics starts on the 16th."
Xu Xin responded:
"But the Paralympic Games have different types of directors, so the director team of the Summer Olympics doesn't have many responsibilities. Otherwise, I wouldn't have time to eat and chat with everyone, and I would be so busy that I would hit the back of the head. Haha. Haha~"
"Then...what's the next step, what is Director Xu's plan? Do you have any plans?"
"Yes, I have."
Xu Xin didn't seem to think much, nodded and said:
"What I'm actually busy with right now is the movie project that the factory is about to launch. It's what I proposed. Now that I have some free time, it's about to start operations."
"oh?"
Mu Xiaoguang's eyes lit up and he asked:
"I wonder...what kind of project is it?"
"Internal project."
Xu Xin suddenly said this suddenly.
Mu Xiaoguang was stunned for a moment, but then he heard Xu Xin say again:
"But it's actually nothing to say, it's a gift movie. Next year is the New Year, so there's a spy movie as a gift movie."
"A spy tribute?"
Liang Binning couldn't help but show doubts in her eyes.
Xu Xin knew why she was confused, so he said in a very calm manner:
"Yes, Spy Tribute... Strictly speaking, this is the first film that can be put on the screen, telling the story of underground workers at that time. As far as the subject matter is concerned, it is actually very fresh. At present, It’s my only job... The factory has placed this burden on a young boy like me, and frankly speaking, it’s a lot of pressure.”
After saying this, Xu Xin glanced at Qi Lei, seemingly complaining.
"Big investment, big production... these words have been weighing heavily on my shoulders these days. Mr. Qi, I really can't sleep well for a few days."
"..."
Qi Lei was stunned for a moment, but he immediately came to his senses and laughed:
"Haha, those who are capable should work harder. One Olympic Games can't prove Director Xu's ability? What's more... we have carefully asked Director Zhang's opinion, and he firmly believes that Director Xu you will have no problem."
Liang Binning on the side just listened with a smile. After Qi Lei finished speaking, she asked:
"It sounds very good, Director Xu."
"What, Sister Bingbing is interested?"
"e...."
Liang Bingning seemed to be thinking, but after making this nasal noise, she looked a little playful.
Paired with the slightly red cheeks after a few glasses of wine.
The peach-like scent began to spread again.

Then, she said:
"If it were someone else's drama, I might have to think about it. But... Director Xu, I'm a real fan. The movie "Secret" perfectly covers my love affair with teenagers when I was in school. All the beautiful fantasies... The power of idols is infinite. So, if Director Xu needs me, I can do it at any time. I can make way for Director Xu at any time."
These words were equivalent to giving the initiative to Xu Xin again.
Use retreat to advance.
Is it great?
It must be awesome.
Don't talk about benefits or anything else.
Use retreat to advance.
A mature lady said to a young man in his early twenties that "anything is fine" in a tone of "a fan meets an idol".
Regardless of whether it is catalyzed by alcohol or not, it is enough to stimulate the impulsive hormones of hot boys.
pity.....
Just like she needs a "bridge".
Having already known the "correct answer" to this whole matter, Xu Xin is now in a state like a game production developer.
He already knew the plots that cheered, agitated, and delighted players during the game development stage.
Seeing those players being manipulated by his own game, he couldn't empathize with the game's plot. He just looked at these performances from a "God's perspective" and looked at these performances with a cold eye.
Oh yes.
It’s also in the plot.
The God of Creation pretends to be a pig and eats the tiger, living low-key in the world he created.
It is obvious that he can destroy everything with a snap of his fingers, but no, he is just playing with the creatures he created. Therefore, after hearing this, he first pretended to be surprised:
"real?"
But just when Liang Binning was rousing her mood, she suddenly paused...and then looked regretful.
"But...it's not appropriate."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Let alone these two people, Qi Lei was speechless.
But at the same time, I also want to see... how Director Xu will communicate this matter.
Learn from others.
After Liang Binning hesitated for a while, she regained her smile and asked:
"Why is it inappropriate? Director Xu, don't underestimate the enthusiasm and persistence of fans. How about... let's have another drink? When the wine arrives, the relationship will begin."
After that, she stood up.
To toast.
This attitude can no longer be called a friend, it can almost be called "humble". But... I have laid the groundwork for fans and idols.
So this humbleness is naturally led to the level of "fans and idols".
On the contrary, he saved face.
Amazing......
Xu Xin sighed, but he didn't stand up slowly.
After feeling the other party's social skills, he definitely wanted to drink this glass of wine. But you have to show your attitude.
First, he held the cup and waited for the other party to pour the wine.
This is polite.
After the wine was filled, when Liang Binning was about to add more wine to her glass, she was stopped by Xu Xin:
"Sister Bingbing, your fans, fans who have been particularly fond of you since the days of "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" also want to pour you a glass of wine, okay?"
With that said, he politely moved away Liang Bingning's wrist that was pressing her lightly, took the wine bottle from her hand in a gentlemanly manner, and helped her fill up the wine bottle.
"Sister Bingbing, please."
Liang Bingning smiled brightly:
"Ha~Idol, please~"
The two of them stood up and drank the wine in one gulp, and then Qi Lei reconciled:
"Come on, come on, sit down, sit down, chat, and eat some food. You can't just drink and not eat, right?"
"Um."
Xu Xin politely gave in and motioned for her to sit down first, then he took his seat, and then said unhurriedly:
"Actually, it's not that I don't have enough affection or sincerity. Mr. Mu, Sister Bingbing, we hit it off as soon as we met, so I'll tell you straight away. This drama is about the female lead."

After hearing this, his eyes immediately lit up.
"A leading actress?"
"right."
Xu Xin nodded and stretched out two fingers:
"Two female protagonists, one is named Gu Xiaomeng. She is an underground worker, and her superficial identity is a cardamom girl. Her age is probably around 20 years old... Sister Bingbing's aura is too strong, which will feel inconsistent. .So even if I play the role, I will definitely rule out this role first.
If I had to choose, I would really like Sister Bingbing to play another heroine named Li Ningyu. She was beautiful, elegant, intellectual, highly educated, and almost represented the unparalleled elegance of that era. For Gu Xiaomeng, she is more like a sister. but....."
Looking at Liang Binning's equally shining eyes, he shook his head slightly:
"The meaning of the factory is very simple, internal digestion..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Qi Lei had lowered his head to hold a cigarette to cover up the twitching at the corner of his mouth.
Fine.
Internal digestion.
Um.....
Good digestion and digestion....
Who else in the factory can handle this role now?
Originally Jiang Wenli was okay.
But the problem is that after that commercial, who would dare to throw an artist who caused a stir onto the screen next year?
are you crazy?
And sure enough, after hearing this, Liang Binning thought for a while and suddenly said:
"Is it...Sister Jiang?"
"right."
Xu Xin nodded:
"Li Ningyu's role is positioned as a "sister", and the factory is very relieved about Teacher Jiang's role. It would be no exaggeration to say that this play...has set a precedent. Because throughout the history of film and television, there are many plots that specifically describe underground workers, but this is really the first time that they have been brought to the screen and described with the protagonist. Therefore, the factory attaches great importance to it. but....."
Speaking of this, he had a headache:
"well....."
"..."
"..."
It's okay that he didn't sigh. Once he said that, Mu Xiaoguang and Liang Binning felt like...
It was "created" just for the two of them.
The louder and better he said it, the hotter their hearts became!
Because... their plan was to use this opportunity to conduct a similar exchange with Xiying Film Studio.
So wear this brand with you!
Jiang Wenli?
What a joke.
Her one alleged incest advertisement is enough to cause a big headache.
If it's normal, it'll be over when the heat wears off.
But the problem is...next year is 2009!
Next year I guarantee you won’t see any news from her for the whole year.
How could it be given to her.
And now...
have a look!
Director Xu frowned.
Ouch, I’m frowning, I’m frowning!
Isn't this a big gift?
Liang Binning instinctively gave Mu Xiaoguang a look.
It means: Come here, I will support you.
Mu Xiaoguang understood.
"That....."
"Oh, forget it. I won't mention this anymore."
Suddenly, Xu Xin waved his hand:
"Some things about this matter are actually quite troublesome. I have recently had to communicate with the factory because of these things. But today, let's not talk about these troublesome things. Come on, come on, let's drink and drink..."
"..."
"..."
The expressions of the two people suddenly became frozen.
"Hi~~~~~Huh..."
A puff of smoke puffed out.
Qi Lei's mood calmed down a little.
otherwise......
He looked melancholy and was really going to die laughing.
Director Xu...he really took these two people away
