To be honest, the scenery at Baicheng Beach is average. It's not that the scenery is really ordinary, but that it didn't meet Xu Xin's expectations.
In his concept,
Although table shengfa, one of the "threesome", is
"Idiot", but he wanted to lay some foreshadowing. Don't be like what was explained in the book. Xin Xiaofeng died in the end. Zhuo Shengfa knew that he could not escape, so he simply gave up the secret that he had hidden for many years.
The "silly" character died suddenly. The plot tension is not enough. So he wanted to arrange a scene on the beach.
One second he was saying goodbye to Xin Xiaofeng in a crazy manner, and the next second after the other party turned around, Zhuo Shengfa's eyes suddenly changed.
It became a kind of calm. Then this shot
Switch with a "swish". Let the audience feel
The illusion of "did I see it wrong?" He wanted to play like this. So I wanted to find a beach that... had a lot of feel to it.
He didn't know if he was influenced by Wang Jiawei. He couldn't imagine what this beach was like for the time being.
But when he thought about this plot, the first thing that came to his mind was about
The film footage of "Sea" is from "The Shawshank Redemption". one sentence
The line "The Pacific has no memory" springs to mind. What he wanted to find was...a beach that felt like this.
It's not some jagged rocks, nor is it a golden light. It's the sea. Calm sea. After telling Li Pingdong this idea, Li Pingdong looked at the dark red beach in front of him under the setting sun, thought for a while, and gave the answer: "There are many types of calm, such as death. The tranquility. Then I would recommend Iceland first. If you want to seek that kind of quiet sea water, I think you can choose an endless lake to create a beach. The key depends on which kind you want..." Xu Xin did not answer him.
He just squinted his eyes and looked at the coastline, wondering what he was thinking about. After watching for a while, he led everyone to the other direction of Baicheng Beach.
Sometimes a scene can reveal a lot of different content when viewed from different angles. He wasn't in a hurry either.
Xiamen is not the final choice, there are still several cities to visit. He is famous now. Although I can't say that I am burdened by fame, I do have to strive for excellence in the movies I make.
... After walking around in circles, Xue Yong took many photos under Xu Xin's instructions. It was getting late, so everyone returned to the Kempinski to stay.
The people at the hotel also knew that he was going to check in, and specially sent the hotel manager to express condolences. A fruit plate and a few boxes of Xiamen's local specialties were given.
They are snacks like pineapple cake and coconut cake. The things are not expensive, but they show sincerity. Obviously, they attach great importance to Xu Xin's stay experience.
After expressing his gratitude to the hotel again, he politely closed the door. He sent a message to Yang Mi and told her that he had arrived at the hotel.
Yang Mi replied
"Do you want to make a call?" He replied: "No, I took some photos today and need to sort them out." So, except at 10 o'clock, Yang Mi sent a
Other than "Good night, go to bed early and don't stay up too late", he was not disturbed all night. The two have been together for such a long time, and she knows very well what her husband's state was like when he was preparing for the movie, and what his hobbies were.
All concerns will be realized through Su Meng's hands. Like spring rain. Moisturizing things silently. In the early morning of the 25th, Xu Xin once again received news from Qi Lei.
The box office of "The Piano" on the third day: 16.85 million. A big sale is a foregone conclusion. ... In the next few days, Xu Xin and Li Pingdong traveled to every corner of Xiamen.
I chose a lot of scenes. It's like traveling. After leaving Xiamen, Li Pingdong said goodbye. In addition to being familiar with Xiamen and acting as a guide, he came here this time to meet Xu Xin and talk about the preparations for the new movie.
Now that we have finished talking, it is unrealistic for a photography boss like him to follow the director to shoot scenes like an ordinary employee.
After he left, Xu Xin took Xue Yong to Fuzhou. Compared with Xiamen, even though Fuzhou is the provincial capital, the fisherman style of some coastal counties and cities under it... In Xu Xin's eyes, it is actually more beautiful than that of Xiamen.
Somewhat "local". In Yutou Township, he personally visited several fishing rafts to see what the life of these fishermen was like on the water.
Then a conclusion was reached. The kelp on the seaside is even more delicious than inland... Okay, just kidding.
In short, after staying in Fuzhou for another three days, and with the ceiling-level box office performance of "The Piano" in its first week of 71.6 million, he temporarily interrupted his trip to Shantou.
Returned to Yanjing. There is still a celebration banquet waiting for me in "The Piano of Steel". March 31st. The newly renovated Qinchuan Yashe.
After Xu Xin got out of the car, he took his mobile phone and sent Yang Mi a message: "I'm here."
"Well, stop drinking. You've been tired for several days. If you really can't stand it, drink a bowl of noodles while you rest. If you can't, just endure it and tell me in advance after the meal that you're going home. I’ll feed you down there.”
"Want me to eat below?"
"\/Sex, that's okay. Then come back soon~"
"\/sweat" Although I also know that the end of this month and the beginning of the month are the right time for my daughter-in-law to visit relatives, she is always very thirsty these days.
But sister, don’t you have to be more restrained? What if someone steals my phone... With some obscene thoughts, he took Su Meng and walked into... a hotel that seemed more luxurious than before.
Soon, under the guidance of the waiter, we arrived at the door of the box. The waiter opened the box door and he walked in.
"Hey, Cao Cao will be here soon." Qi Lei, who was the first to see Xu Xin, stood up with a smile. Seeing this, Xu Xin quickly quickened his pace, looked around, smiled and nodded to the main actors in the crew: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm late." Then he sat down next to Qi Lei amidst everyone's smiles. .
At the same time, he glanced at Qin Hailu with a vague look. His intuition told him that there was something wrong with Qin Hailu's condition.
Her eyes were smaller than before, and...even though she was wearing makeup, she couldn't hide her haggard look. When I met this girl before, I thought she had a very tough personality.
But today it looked like someone else had taken away all my energy. But he didn't ask. Instead, he withdrew his gaze, turned to Zhang Meng and said, "Director Zhang, this hair needs to be cut." Zhang Meng was stunned.
Subconsciously, I took a handful of my hair to lengthen it. His hair is not something that can be grown long, it just grows naturally after being cut, and it doesn't even have any shape.
"What Director Xu said is that it's time to cut it."
"That's right. You will be a big director in the future, so you have to pay attention to your image. You look much older than my sister-in-law." After hearing this, sitting next to Zhang Meng, his wife Zhou Xiaoli couldn't help but cover her face. His mouth closed, and his eyes curved into crescent moons.
Everyone was obviously very happy at today's celebration banquet. Not to mention anything else, for Zhang Meng, the success of this work means that he has completely established a foothold in the director world.
Just before coming to dinner today, a company already wanted to buy the copyright of "The Piano" and invited him to direct the TV adaptation.
The price is also a very exaggerated price. A movie brings fame and benefits, and people feel refreshed during happy events.
The couple's happiness is real. What's more... for Zhou Xiaoli, Director Xu called herself
"Sister-in-law". Can you be unhappy? Xu Xin naturally blended into the atmosphere of this table.
We even had a good chat with the people from Liao Film Studio whom we met for the first time. Liao Film Studio somewhat wanted to move closer to Xi Film Studio.
However, the factory's opinion is that it is unnecessary. At present, they can only handle this one "The Piano of Steel", other works, and the operating conditions of the factory, they are all like a microcosm of the three eastern provinces.
Little by little it goes down over the years. Although we are all brothers and sisters, there is always someone who is close or distant.
The size of Liao Film Studio is not something that Xi Film Studio can appreciate for the time being. After chatting for a while, the door was pushed open again.
Shen Xiaoyang, wearing black-rimmed glasses, arrived late, followed by a man with a somewhat raw face.
After coming in, his words were exactly the same as Xu Xin's.
"Oh, I'm late, I'm late. I'm really sorry, the traffic jam, Yanjing is too congested..." It's just followed by: "I'll punish myself with three drinks in a while." In fact, it is not a penalty.
Xu Xin smiled and waved: "Haha, come on, come on, I'm waiting for you... This is..." He gave the person who came with Shen Xiaoyang a step up.
Shen Xiaoyang quickly took a step to the side: "Dapeng, Dong Chengpeng, my junior brother. I came here today with the mentality that I will never come back until I get drunk. He came to help me drive." After hearing this, Xu Xin, Qi Lei, too, understood what was going on.
Will Shen Xiaoyang be short of a driver? The answer is definitely no. So... we should bring this person named Dapeng here.
"Getting together". After all, he is Sensei Motoyama's apprentice. Face must be given. Besides, the table is big enough for this mouth.
So, Qi Lei greeted with a smile: "Sit down then. Waiter, serve the dishes. All the guests are here~!" Following his words, the waiter nodded and walked out.
Dapeng also sat next to Shen Xiaoyang. Everyone is here, wine and food are served. Except for Dapeng, everyone present was a stranger.
In addition, today is the celebration banquet, and everyone's faces are a bit joyful. The atmosphere is quite good. Soon, after all the cold dishes prepared in advance were put on the table, everyone's wine was also poured.
Qi Lei stood up directly. He stood, and so did Xu Xin. Then everyone stood up.
"Today is a happy day. We are celebrating the success of our movie. You have worked hard to promote the movie. It is the joint efforts of everyone that made "The Piano of Steel" achieve the good results it has today. In Northeastern dialect Come on: Today we are all family members. Come on, everyone, celebrate the sales of "The Piano of Steel", cheers!" Qi Lei's words received a response from everyone.
Everyone raised their glasses together: "Cheers!" This first glass was from a small wine cup. After a glass of wine, everyone sat down and started to eat quickly.
At this time, Qin Hailu suddenly said: "Director Zhang, Mr. Qi, I have a suggestion."
"Well, you say."
"This wine cup is a bit too unsatisfying. What's in it? You can do whatever you want. Waiter, please change it to a larger cup." What she said was actually very generous.
But Xu Xin subconsciously wanted to persuade her... but stopped as soon as the words reached her lips. Judging from the few days we spent together during the Tokyo Film Festival, speaking by myself may work normally, but it probably won't work today.
After Qi Lei heard this, he still advised: "We won't drink together today, we will do what we can. Just drink and have fun~"
"Yeah!" Qin Hailu nodded, but after taking the glass handed by the waiter, he poured his twenty ounces of wine directly into the glass.
Fine. So let's do it. Soon, Zhang Meng stood up on his own initiative and started to pick up the second glass of wine. Thank you Liao Film Studio, thank you Xi Film Studio.
In the end, perhaps because he was a little excited, he glanced at Xu Xin and said, "What I am most grateful to is Director Xu..."
"Hey~ Director Zhang, these words are inappropriate." Xu Xin quickly interrupted him. It’s understandable that Big Brother is emotional, but there are some things you shouldn’t say.
So he added: "In fact, the most grateful thing is everyone who has contributed to this movie, right, Brother Yang?" Shen Xiaoyang was stunned, then stood up with a smile: "Then what else is there to say. Fuck~”
"Uh..." Zhang Meng was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses and said with a smile: "Anyway... thank you all, thank you all... I'd like to toast everyone!" He was also really not good at words.
But the wine was very enjoyable. Everyone also accompanied one. Xu Xin, who put down the cup, glanced at Qin Hailu subconsciously.
Good guy, I didn't say this for a minute or two... Even Wang Qianyuan next to him persuaded him: "Drink slowly, please?" Qin Hailu waved her hand to indicate that she was fine.
Then he didn't eat any food and just took a sip of tea. After seeing everything under his eyes, Xu Xin was even more surprised.
What the hell is going on? ...The third glass of wine was shared by everyone. After three glasses of wine, the hot dishes began to be served.
We fell into the rhythm of eating and chatting. We talked about all kinds of things, including everything. After all the more than twenty dishes were served, Xu Xin had just drank half of the second bottle of wine.
That is about three taels. But Qin Hailu had already lost more than half a catty. Then he stood up and said hello: "I'm going to the bathroom." As soon as she entered the bathroom, Xu Xin thought for a while, picked up the phone and sent a message to Su Meng: "Mengmeng, call Qin Hailu's assistant to come in and tell her Qin Hailu I'm going to the bathroom, let her take care of me." At this time, Qi Lei's words rang in his ears: "We broke up. We dated for 8 years and just broke up a few days ago." His voice was very low.
After Xu Xin heard this, he blinked twice quickly and said to Wang Qianyuan: "Old Wang, please pour her wine and replace it with plain water." Wang Qianyuan seemed to know that something was wrong with Qin Hailu's situation. After Xu Xin finished speaking, He poured the wine in the other person's glass directly down the table, and then asked the waiter for mineral water.
The waiter trotted out. Qin Hailu's assistant trotted in. She was a little timid when she came in.
It wasn't until he saw Xu Xin pointing in the direction of the screen in front of the bathroom that he nodded quickly and ran over.
By the time Qin Hai was revealed, it was already time for Xu Xin to finish his second bottle of wine. The assistant carried her out, but she was already dying.
Dong Chengpeng, who was still sitting in the position of passing the dishes, went over and helped Qin Hailu, who seemed to have reached the unconscious stage, onto the soft collapse.
This is drunk. Seeing this, Xu Xin thought for a while and said to Zhang Meng: "Director Zhang, how about... find a few people to send Sister Qin back first. She is not suitable for drinking in this state." Zhang Meng is the author of "Steel" As the director of "Qin", it would be better for him to decide this kind of thing.
Zhang Meng obviously also knew what happened to Qin Hailu, so he nodded: "Okay. Wife, how about you follow..."
"Okay." Zhou Xiaoli agreed happily. Xu Xin also got up and went next door, called a male driver, and including Su Meng, a total of three women, one man and a wheelchair pulled Qin Hailu away.
After she left, Zhang Mengcai sighed: "Oh... after eight years of relationship, no wonder she is like this..."
"Director Zhang." Xu Xin shook his head slightly. It is always inappropriate to chew something behind your back. The relationship is fine. The problem is that we are not familiar with each other to that extent...it is not always appropriate.
Therefore, this topic was directly discussed. Everyone’s drinking rhythm was not affected at all.
When he had drunk half a catty, which was the stage where the wine had gone through three rounds of food and the five flavors had passed, Qi Lei and the people from Liao Film Studio who were sitting next to him went to
Went to "talk business". Wang Qianyuan and Zhang Meng were smoking and laughing. Obviously, Qin Hailu's departure did not affect the atmosphere of the celebration banquet.
At this time, Shen Xiaoyang came over with Dong Chengpeng.
"Director Xu. Hello, hello. My name is Dong Chengpeng. You can just call me Dapeng."
"Haha, hello." Xu Xin smiled and handed over a cigarette. Then Shen Xiaoyang said: "It's been a long time since I last saw Director Xu. In addition, my junior brother is in Yanjing, so I will bring him over today to meet Director Xu."
"Yeah." Xu Xin responded and took out his mobile phone: "Shall we add him on WeChat?" Dapeng seemed a little flattered, and was surprised that Xu Xin would take the initiative to add him.
Subconsciously glanced at Shen Xiaoyang. Shen Xiaoyang, on the other hand, was all smiles. Obviously, Xu Xin's doing this made him look good.
After the two added each other on WeChat, Shen Xiaoyang took him to sit on a chair and chat with Xu Xin. They were all talking about "The Grandmaster".
After all, Wang Jiawei has not come out from the Northeast yet. It is said that Zhang Zhen was tortured to the point of death.
From "The Grandmaster", we talked about Zhao Benshan's body, and then talked about his recent works.
It was only through word of mouth that Xu Xin found out that Dapeng was the host of Yanjing TV Station. I only joined Zhao Jiaban in April last year.
The wine shop. that's all. After half a pound of wine, the atmosphere became more lively. In the end, Xu Xin drank almost a pound of wine, and the meal was not officially over until almost 10 o'clock.
There is no need to mention the pleasantries before leaving. But Qi Lei reminded him: "April 2nd is the time when Cannes announces the shortlist, don't forget it." Only then did Xu Xin, who was slightly tipsy, remember... Oh, yes, I also have a movie called "Love Lost 33" "Tian"... On the way home, Xu Xin was sitting in the passenger seat of the commercial vehicle, with the window open a crack to let in the wind.
At the same time, he sent a message to Yang Mi, telling her that he was rushing back. I drank less than a kilogram, so I wasn’t drunk, but I was very dry.
Let her wait for you after taking a bath. Yang Mi is a ruthless person and doesn't talk much. Didn't reply a word, just sent an empty bed.
Obviously, the two troublemakers are sleeping with grandma and grandpa tonight. At this time, Su Meng said: "Brother Xu, Qin Hailu cried so much in the car."
"Huh?" Xu Xin, who had a cigarette in his mouth and a gangster look on his face, had a hint of gossip in his eyes: "Isn't she drunk?"
"He was indeed drunk. He was crying and shouting the name of a person named Wang Yan. He cried fiercely and cursed fiercely...Who is Wang Yan?"
"He seems to be her boss."
"Ah?" Su Meng was a little surprised: "She is in love with her boss?"
"Nonsense, aren't you, Brother Xu, and I also falling in love with the boss? Soon your boss will make unspoken rules for me." After drinking some wine, he would talk about everything.
Fortunately, Su Meng is already immune. She had long passed the stage where she would blush when she saw Sister Mi pulling Brother Xu or Brother Xu pulling Sister Mi into the house.
After hearing this, he nodded to himself: "Yes, indeed."
"It's true. Your boss and I are a legal couple, do you understand? We have certificates!"
"...Hehe~" Su Meng couldn't help laughing. Xu Xin, holding a cigarette in his mouth, took in the last puff of his cigarette after taking in the sight of his little assistant's smile. After flicking the cigarette butt out in a very poor manner, he said: "You're laughing! I'll deduct two hundred from you!" "Su Meng: ψψ
