I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

Chapter 390 388. I’m so afraid, didn’t Sanjin stop me for you?

This hand...

Liang Binning's eyes moved, but she didn't open her mouth that she originally wanted to speak.

In fact, she also knows...this matter is not easy to handle.

No one here is stupid.

Regardless of your level of education, at least you have eaten what you should have eaten and seen what you should have seen.

But why does she think this can be done?

Because Zhang Ziyi talked a lot in the afternoon.

And her plan is actually not complicated on a large scale.

First of all, there are many shortcomings in Chinese movies.

This is something that is obvious, such as the film rating system and the protection of filmmakers in the industry.

But no one has heard of anyone paying social security for extras, right?

Secondly, the film and television industry is different from other circles. It emphasizes the blooming of a hundred flowers. At present, everyone knows that everyone wants to catch up with Hollywood...or, in other words, is preparing to catch up with Hollywood.

But what should we do first if we want to catch up? Before fighting the outside world, you must first make peace with the inside.

First "formalize" things in the entire circle.

Not to mention anything else... When it comes to countries with the lowest screenwriters in the world, China is definitely on the list.

Why are there so many bad movies now? Is it really the screenwriter who is crazy?

Not really.

Sometimes the screenwriter really comes up with a good story, but it is rejected by the actors or directors and other parties, and he loses it.

For example, "Three Guns" is released now.

"Blood Maze" is so good-looking, and there's nothing wrong with Director Zhang's cinematography.

But where is the real explosion of this film?

In terms of storytelling.

To put it bluntly...it's the screenwriter's fault.

Therefore, the "trade union" Zhang Ziyi mentioned is actually the product of its final development.

In the early stage, what she wants to do is to contact various companies and designate an industry standard in a reasonable and legal manner.

As for why she dares to "set standards", it has to be linked to some people behind her.

Here, Zhang Ziyi said something very obscure. But in the afternoon, Liang Binning could tell that the reason why she dared to take the lead must be because she had her own confidence.

So, she thought this was an opportunity.

Because she has seen how powerful Zhang Ziyi is.

The movie "Perfect" they collaborated on last year became the first female director in Chinese history to have a box office of over 100 million.

Being able to invite So Ji-sub, who is very popular in South Korea, to star, and the publicity work during that period, Liang Bingning felt the other party's advantages.

Advantages that are difficult to achieve by oneself.

The resources standing behind Zhang Ziyi were really something she was jealous of.

Funds, projects, connections... all made her feel the true envy of a boss who set up a studio on her own and struggled to survive under the rigidity of class and closed circles.

This resource...

Give it to her and she can fly too!

In the afternoon, after she heard what Zhang Ziyi wanted to do, she already saw the prospect.

The right to speak.

If you can be one of the first people to set standards...

Then her voice in the entire film and television industry will be infinitely increased.

And, once this thing goes on the right track, then there will be an existence that spans all circles and factions.

At that time, as the "old man" who conquers the world together, her right to speak will be infinitely greater.

Of course, this is not easy to do.

But this "difficulty" depends on how it is done.

Zhang Ziyi is not short of money at all.

Although it was not her money, through the afternoon chat, she revealed the tip of the iceberg of some Shanghai capital power.

Going deeper, she didn’t mention it.

But the confidence in his eyes cannot be faked.

Therefore, considering what she showed... Liang Binning felt that it would not be possible anyway, and the contradiction was no longer her own. He just needs to stand in her team when she takes the lead.

Just like everyone else here today.

Use your fame, status, and audience recognition to add weight to this industry standard.

Just don't make people feel like a pheasant team, that's all.

To put it bluntly, Zhang Ziyi took the initiative alone and co-initiated it with first-line artists, producers, directors, etc., including herself. The gold content is definitely different.

This is also the fundamental reason why the other party insists on recruiting Mimi and Xu Xin to join today.

only……

Xu Xin refused so firmly, which she did not expect.

Although it seems that there is room in his words.

But if someone really succeeds, you will naturally have to follow this standard. Do you need to join in?

So although this rejection was polite, the "not interested" attitude was already written on his face.

Confused!

She just wanted to persuade Xu Xin not to refuse so harshly, at least to maintain an ambiguous attitude, and then waited and watched after hearing the news.

Unexpectedly...his hand actually put his hand on his leg first.

"..."

For a moment, she felt a little uncomfortable.

When Zhang Ziyi heard that he just refused, there was a trace of surprise on her face.

Obviously he didn't expect the other party to be so straightforward.

but……

She thought for a moment and smiled:

"Of course, it's not like this from the beginning. We have to start small. I know you and Mimi have companies, Bingbing also has one, and they all have one. I plan to take the lead first and establish a business alliance..."

She said that Xu Xin was listening there.

Listen and nod.

He seemed to be listening very carefully.

"Business alliances in the form of companies were actually the prototype of Hollywood's original development. For some of the film and television dramas we launched, we first formulated the rules ourselves. For example, to ensure the salary of actors... All actors no longer leave after filming and getting paid... But to build a long-term benefit...The biggest benefit of doing this is..."

Before she finished speaking, Xu Xin continued naturally:

"It can protect the interests of low-level actors and increase their long-term income. With money, you can continue to chase your dreams, work hard step by step, hone your acting skills, etc...

In the short term, it depends on money, but in the long run, it can actually bring out a group of actors who can study their acting skills and improve themselves without worrying about food and clothing.

From the side, it will not only contribute to the ecological development of the entire circle... but also allow more people to come here to recruit talents. After finally getting everyone's approval, this rule will be popularized from our alliance. It fits our circle.

In the future, the acting skills of actors in this circle will get better and better, and they will become more standardized. The bottom layer has security, the middle layer has development, and the top layer has the “future”. Is that right? "

"..."

"..."

"..."

Before Zhang Ziyi finished speaking, Xu Xin seemed to have expressed all her ideas as if he had read her plan.

Then there was everyone's surprise and silence.

What a smart mind...

Have you read my synopsis?

"Well……"

Zhang Ziyi realized it later and was stunned for a moment before nodding:

"Yes, that's it. Even so, you're not interested?"

"Of course I'm interested."

Xu Xin smiled and nodded:

"How could you not be interested? Sister Zhang, what you are doing is completely beneficial and harmless. People say that the poor come from evil and the rich come from conscience. It is really satisfying to be in your position and to be able to think about everyone. People admire it. But..."

Speaking of this, he pointed at Yang Mi:

“We both have children now, and we care more about the upbringing of our children than these things.

Don’t be afraid of your jokes. At our age, there are suddenly two more children around us. Even if we can only go to the award ceremony alone, or when we go out to play normally, it’s just like having fun separately. You go out today, and I’ll be at home. I'll go out tomorrow and you'll be at home...

If it weren't for the director's and actor's dreams in my heart, we might have taken a break long ago... In addition to the busyness of the previous Olympic Games, I was particularly resistant to anything related to management, construction or other aspects.

Making movies and spending time with our kids is all we can think about now. Sister Zhang, what you want to do is indeed a good thing, and we are also interested in it, but I don't want to do it, and she... can't do it. She has to take care of our children... Besides, we will have more babies in two years. "

Some "macho" words that Liang Bingning had never heard came out of Xu Xin's mouth.

Especially later, Yang Mi was regarded as a fertility machine.

This makes a woman feel uncomfortable.

A trace of "dissatisfaction" flashed across Yang Mi's face.

It fell into everyone's eyes.

At first glance... Xu Xin's "my wife has to give birth to my child" suddenly formed a strong contrast with the dissatisfaction on her face.

No one else said anything, but Liu Tao's husband Wang Ke curled his lips.

Seems extremely disdainful.

Very unhappy.

But he had nothing to say.

It's not related to this, and it would be a waste of words to say more.

But...regardless of men and women, it is true that these people look down on Xu Xin.

This man... is so chauvinistic.

And it sounds like boys are favored over girls...

It seems that Yang Mi's life at home... seems to be difficult too?

And that's what they think.

But Liang Binning's mind had completely calmed down.

Is Xu Xin such a person?

Pull it down.

If she hadn't seen the way the two of them got along in private, she might have been confused by these words today.

Treat Mimi as a child-birth machine?

Stop making trouble now.

Are those eighteen kinds of weapons in your yard just decorations?

She has been in this circle for so many years, and she has seen countless couples of all types, including romantic, sadomasochistic, white moonlight, first love... couples.

I have never seen a couple get along so comfortably.

So this is just bullshit.

The expression on Mimi's face must be that of cooperation.

And looking at other people's expressions...

Why would Xu Xin "defeat himself" like this?

How resistant is he to this? After clearly analyzing the pros and cons of everything, you are still not moved? But pick them all cleanly?

Shouldn't it?

It's not like this has crossed a certain line.

It is also different from the Western characteristics of using the rights of labor unions to move up. Essentially, everyone just wants a higher voice within the circle.

Why are you running so fast?

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.

Thinking back to when he pinched himself just now...

Could it be...there's something here that I didn't see?

In an instant, her mood calmed down.

After thinking about it, she suddenly smiled and said:

"Haha, judging from what you said... I know that you two have a good relationship. You are not afraid that Mimi will come back to trouble you when you say this... Haha, come on, come on, don't just talk, cheers. Let's talk about these things later. Well, I won’t leave for the next two days, Xu Xin, can I go to your house to see the children tomorrow?”

"Well, that's okay."

Xu Xin held the cup and agreed.

But Liang Binning said this to Zhang Ziyi.

"Stop chatting now, wait till I go chat with him and his wife tomorrow."

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Ziyi glanced at her and picked up the cup with a smile.

…

"Sister Zhang, let's go then."

Compared with Liu Tao and Wang Ke's Rolls-Royce and Huang Youlong's Maybach, Volvo seems very inconspicuous.

But tonight, when I arrived, I sat next to Zhang Ziyi, and when I left, everyone was polite and polite, with only a few people seeing her off.

The couple has a tendency of driving high and moving low.

After greeting Zhang Ziyi, they exchanged a few more polite words.

Make an appointment to have dinner together and go to the spa some other day.

After saying that, the Volvo that arrived last and had the parking space furthest outside left only its taillights for Zhang Ziyi and Liang Binning.

As the host, Zhang Ziyi watched the car leave and then turned to look at Liang Binning:

"Bingbing... we have to talk to them both. Especially Xu Xin... his qualifications and abilities are very important to us. You should understand what I mean."

"Ok, I know."

Liang Binning nodded.

Perhaps because of her drunkenness, her cheeks looked very crimson in the light of the door light.

"I will communicate with him, don't worry."

As she said that, she glanced at Yang Tianzhen, who was playing with his cell phone with his head down, and said to Zhang Ziyi:

"Then I'll leave first. I'll delay tomorrow and go to Chongqing the day after tomorrow."

"Yes! We will contact you then!"

"OK."

She walked towards her nanny car.

Yang Tianzhen put away her phone and helped Liang Binning open the car door.

After the other party sat down and the car door closed, she politely greeted Zhang Ziyi:

"Sister Ziyi, let's go."

Zhang Ziyi nodded, the commercial vehicle left the warehouse and left the winery.

inside the car.

Liang Binning was still thinking, but Yang Tianzhen, who was driving, said:

"Sister, Director Xu just sent a message asking you to go to his house and tell you something."

"……Walk."

After Liang Binning finished speaking, she leaned on her seat, looked at the neon lights outside, and yawned a little tiredly.

…

"……dad?"

When the couple returned home, they saw Xu Daqiang gently rocking the cradle in the living room...

The two of them showed the same expression.

Shocked, shocked, still shocked...

"Oh, you're back?"

Although he felt that the attitude of his son and daughter-in-law was a bit strange, Xu Daqiang, who was paying full attention to his granddaughter and grandson at the moment, smiled and nodded.

At the same time, he waved his hand:

"Keep your voice down, I just fell asleep...ah, Yangyang is not a good sleeper. He slapped my sister awake. I coaxed her for a long time..."

"..."

"..."

The couple was stunned, and Yang Mi couldn't help but ask:

"Where are my parents?"

"Going to take a bath. When I saw them coming, I told them to go rub them in and take a bath, so I asked Xiao Li to take them to take a bath."

When it comes to how carefully they take care of their children, the elders on both sides are equally generous.

Xu Daqiang was even more protective.

Xu Xin couldn't help but ask:

"Why are you here?"

"I miss my baby. Hey hey... I've finished my work at home, ah... I miss my baby every day, so I can't sleep well. As soon as I close my eyes, I remember the two of them smiling at each other, so sweet... I think... It won’t work anymore.”

As he spoke, he reached out and covered the two children with quilts.

A face full of kindness.

But Yang Mi's expression suddenly became strange...

because……

"Then...then...should I change the time?"

Hearing this, Xu Xin's mouth twitched...

In an instant, he realized what his wife meant.

Liang Bingning is still on the road!

The couple were used to the old man's method of killing first and then showing off, suddenly killing from the sacred tree.

No need to say hello, just come when you need to.

Ever since she and her brother started dating, her father-in-law would often stay at Shenmu in the morning, slap his head in the afternoon... "I thought about it," and then come over from Shenmu. Make a meal for me, place some noodles, sit on a chair and watch my son finish the meal with a smile, ask if it tastes good, and then leave with satisfaction...

Everyone is used to this method.

But the problem is...

The issue is……

question……

Ask...do you want to ask?

He understood the meaning in his wife's eyes.

So I rolled my eyes.

[Ask Hammer. 】

[Liang Binning is on the road now. What should I do if I meet him soon? 】

[How did I know... Just pretend it never happened? 】

[This has never happened. Why are you asking people to come to your place in the middle of the night? Warm dad's bed? 】

[Why do you, a little girl, have such a dull look in your eyes! 】

【Pooh! Why are you playing innocently with me? Then maybe we have to call aunt, you know? 】

【……】

Not to mention, the couple's tacit understanding makes the two of them mentally in sync with each other as high as 100% through their eyes.

The secret art of transmitting sounds into secrets was used just like this...

But in the end...the couple didn't ask or say anything.

Xu Xin just reminded Xu Daqiang:

"Dad, Liang...Bingbing...er...sister will come to our house later, let's talk about something."

"Liang Bingbing? Who?"

"Liang Bingning."

After saying the name, he stared at the old man's expression carefully.

I want to know whether the old man is lying through his micro-expressions.

pity.

He is obviously not well versed in the research of "LIE TO ME"...

Old man Xu has been in a stormy life, but there is no way he could fall over with his son.

Everything is as usual, the clouds are calm and the wind is gentle:

"Oh, come on. Then go to the study and chat. Don't disturb the baby when he sleeps..."

"..."

"..."

Xu Xin estimated that the two children were still young and could not live without their mother since they were not weaned from night feeding.

If the night feeding was stopped, the old man might take the two babies back to the house.

At this time, Xu Xin's phone also rang.

Liang Bingning...

Got home.

…

"...Sister Bingbing."

Looking at Liang Binning getting out of the car, Xu Xin suppressed her awkwardness and shouted.

"Ai."

Liang Binning, who also didn't drink much today, responded with a smile, saw himself and asked:

"Mimi, are you resting?"

"No, I'm waiting in the house."

"Little guy? Are you asleep?"

"Well, I went to sleep."

"Yeah, that's a pity. I'll be earlier next time... I haven't seen the two little guys awake yet."

With that said, the two walked into the door of the house.

Xu Xin deliberately walked side by side with her and said:

"My dad is here too."

Then, when he saw Liang Bingning's stuttering look...

A sentence came to my mind:

"It's over."

The case has been solved.

Bros.

It’s over.

My home was stolen! ! !

Soon, the two entered the house.

Then Xu Xin discovered something.

Yang Mi, this turtle grandchild... no longer lives as a human being.

Can you believe she actually took her child to bed?

At this moment, the door to the master bedroom is closed.

Xu Daqiang is making tea for the "guests".

After seeing Liang Binning come in, he said hello with a smile:

"Here we come. Welcome. Welcome."

Hey.

Just pretend.

Liang Binning also smiled and said hello:

"Hello."

Not even a title.

Um.

You can pretend too.

The corners of Xu Xin's eyes twitched.

After Xu Daqiang boiled the water, poured it into the tea cup, and then said:

"Then let's go to bed."

It could be seen that he was about to leave, but Xu Xin suddenly shook his head:

"Dad, please wait a moment."

"very?"

"The things we will talk about later...are also related to Aunt Zhao. Please listen."

"..."

Xu Daqiang paused...

His brows furrowed.

First he looked at his son, then at Liang Binning...

"Aren't you not allowed to have too much involvement with her?"

"I'm not involved, but the problem is that she is."

"..."

"...???"

Amid Liang Binning's confusion, Xu Daqiang's brows furrowed again.

After thinking for a while, Xu Daqiang said:

"Going to the restaurant? Turn on the exhaust fan."

Xu Xin understood that the old man wanted to smoke.

So he nodded:

"good."

Soon, three people, three water glasses, and two ashtrays arrived in the restaurant.

The restaurant was still warm, and the radiator provided plenty of heat.

After Xu Xin turned on the ventilation fan installed on the window, they all sat casually around the mahogany table.

"What's going on?"

After lighting a cigarette, Xu Daqiang glanced at Liang Binning, thought for a while, put his box of cigarettes on the glass turntable, and turned it around.

But Liang Binning looked at the cigarette case that was transferred to her... but didn't pick it up. Instead, she transferred it to Xu Xin's.

Xu Xin lit a cigarette and took a deep breath before saying:

"Actually, it's quite simple to say. Didn't Mimi and I go to Aunt Zhao in the afternoon?"

"Aunt Zhao is...?"

Liang Binning was a little puzzled.

"Zhao Xinyu."

"..."

Hearing this name, Liang Binning was stunned again...but then seemed to remember something, and turned to look at Xu Daqiang again.

But the old man's eyes were all in the smoke.

Hidden very deep.

Xu Xin, who had all this under his eyes, did not ask any more questions and just continued:

"If we really want to talk, in fact, they are all useless topics, but the problem is... Mimi received a call from Zhang Ziyi first in the afternoon... Do you know who Zhang Ziyi is, right?"

"We've met before and had dinner together. That girl..."

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man shook his head slightly.

Although he didn't say it clearly, his attitude was either that he didn't like him or that he wasn't a good person.

"Mimi didn't answer the phone because she asked Aunt Zhao and said it was Zhang Ziyi who called her... She thought they had a good relationship and Aunt Zhao would ask her to come together. But Aunt Zhao didn't answer... Then... …”

He pointed at Liang Bingning:

"She called me and asked me to have dinner with Mimi in the evening, with Zhang Ziyi... We just came back and just left the dinner. After I hung up the phone, I also asked Aunt Zhao, I asked her: Aunt Zhao, are you and Zhang Ziyi good friends? She still didn't answer and changed the topic... I could probably guess what was going on after taking a look. The two of them... must have broken up. "

"Well, what happened next?"

The old man continued to ask, and Liang Binning's brows furrowed.

"Then we went to have dinner and met Zhang Ziyi and Sister Bingbing. Zhang Ziyi is very ambitious and wants to build something... similar to the coal mining industry alliance we were planning to build a few years ago..."

"Coal Mining Industry Alliance?"

Liang Binning couldn't help but ask:

"what is that?"

Xu Xin shrugged:

"It's similar in nature to what Zhang Ziyi said today... There are differences in details, but in general it's the same. And... guess what the outcome of that alliance will be?"

"……What?"

"In my memory...it seems to be 621 tons of coal, right? In order to compete with several other places for sales, they priced it at 600. And then..."

He made a gesture of making fists with both hands and stretching them out.

But Liang Binning was even more confused.

Caught?

It's obviously sold cheaply, why is it still being... hiss! ! ! !

In an instant, Liang Binning seemed to understand something, and her face suddenly turned pale.

All of a sudden, why did Xu Xin stop him, why did he call him here after the dinner... All kinds of guesses were answered at this moment.

But now that she had the answer, she became more and more confused...

"how come……"

"Go get the phone and charge it in the house."

Suddenly, Xu Daqiang said this.

Xu Xin nodded, got up and walked out of the house.

After his son left, he glanced at Liang Binning and said:

"Don't panic, don't panic. Didn't Sanjin help you stop it..."

"Uh...I..."

Liang Binning wanted to say something more, but Xu Daqiang waved his hand, squinted his eyes and started smoking again.

Soon, Xu Xin came over with his phone and asked:

"Want to call Aunt Zhao?"

"Yeah. Just ask..."

As he spoke, he dialed the number.

"Dudu... Hey, big mine manager, this is rare. Can you call me at this time?"

Zhao Xinyu's voice rang on the phone.

Full of smiles.

Xu Daqiang laughed:

"Haha, ah, boss Zhao, we can't do it without fighting. The two children came back so confused that they were so confused that they felt very panicked."

Listening to the nicknames the two gave each other, Xu Xin knew... the old man and Aunt Zhao must have a really good relationship.

And sure enough, after hearing his words, Zhao Xinyu laughed:

"Haha... I was talking to someone just now. Let me tell you, our big mine manager is the deepest in mind. He will guard his precious baby until he finds a suitable mother-in-law before he is willing to bring it out to the world. I should have known better. Xiao Xu is such an outstanding child... Hey, we all regret it."

"Hahahahaha... That's a nice thing to say, so just praise this elder. Next time you have to punish yourself with three cups of wine, how about letting your Sanzhuang go? Hahaha~"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The two of them had a hahaha meal.

They continued chatting until Xu Daqiang put out his cigarette, and then he got down to business:

"I just arrived in Yanjing, and my son and I just talked about what happened today. What? Did that little girl make you unhappy? The two of us are worried that we will say the wrong thing, so we are very worried."

"There's nothing to worry about. Both kids are pretty good. They're so popular~"

"Why did that little girl make you unhappy? Did you mess with her?"

"Hahaha, okay, I still don't know what you mean? If it weren't for Xiao Xu, you wouldn't have called me like this, would you?"

"Haha, I'm afraid the baby will be reckless."

"It's okay. Just let Xiao Xu and Mimi stay away from her in the future. What she broke was the rules... Someone in the city was not very happy and complained about it to me. It would not be nice to talk about it. Aren't you usually interested in these things..."

"What's the matter?"

"It's a woman's matter. She was the person I introduced her to. What she did now is very unreasonable and slapped me in the face... It makes me feel very uncomfortable now. If I don't show an attitude this time, I won't be able to do it." Kind of... So, just keep Xiao Xu and Mimi away from her in the future. Nothing else matters~"

Hearing this, Xu Daqiang nodded:

"Oh, that's it. Ah...that's all. The two kids are afraid of making you unhappy~"

"Hahaha, what does it have to do with the children... Oh, but don't tell me, Xiao Xu is so considerate... Really, you cover it really tightly..."

"Hahahahaha..."

The two of them were chatting there.

But Liang Binning's face gradually turned pale...
