MTL - I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad-Chapter 520 518. Knowing everything (2/3)

   "I think... why don't you join? We are making movies, how can we become civil servants in no time? Nine to five every day... I can't stand it."

  In the guest room of Xiying Studio, Xu Kaibin was the first to object.

"Besides, Lao Song, you also know. My son will go to elementary school next year. The school district room I bought with my teeth was for the purpose of allowing my child to receive education in Yanjing. It will be easier to enter Tsinghua University and Peking University in the future... You let me go Going back to my hometown to compete with those 600-700 score lines gives me a headache just thinking about it..."

  Hearing this, Song Wen didn't know how to answer for a while.

  Actually, among the four people, Song Wen felt that Lao Xu owed him the most.

  Although a few people never mentioned it, but a large part of the reason for his divorce, everyone thinks it was the film exhibition.

  His wife left him because of this film exhibition, on the one hand, he didn’t make money, and on the other hand, he couldn’t see the development. The couple quarreled and conflicted and eventually turned into divorce.

  Old Xu loves movies, as can be seen from the 8.5 million funds that everyone shared this time.

  He is not a person who values ​​money very much.

   But as the third place in the county's college entrance examination that year, he cared more about the education of his children.

  Although this contradiction has never been mentioned, everyone in the team knows that he prefers to stay in Yanjing.

  If the film festival moves to another place, the team will definitely set up an office in Yanjing to contact some directors, actors and so on in Beijing. This is what he will be responsible for at that time.

   But if he joins Xiying Film Studio, then he also understands that these jobs will not be his turn. At this time, the retreat is not because of other things, but purely for the children.

  It is already very hard for a child to be a single parent.

   If there is another separation between the two places, then he will never agree.

  So, after hearing his appeal, Li Ziwei immediately asked:

   "What if...Xiying Studio can also let you work in Yanjing?"

"Then I can think about it. As long as I am not separated from my child, I can do anything. My son must not follow my old path. It is too hard. Our province's admission threshold is too high...Compared with his future, everything I can give up!"

   After Xu Kaibin finished speaking, he expressed his attitude, and then fell silent.

  Li Ziwei subconsciously looked at Li Ningning.

"I don't really care. Wherever I work is work... Xi'an is also very good, and if the working environment of Xiying Studio can be as stable as Director Xu promised, my father will not say anything: "Girls are outside Running around here and there, it’s no wonder that people can marry you” or something like that. It would be nice to find a boyfriend from Northwest~ Is it better than the current one?”

  Let's talk...it's quite realistic.

   But there is nothing wrong with it.

  In Li Ziwei's eyes, Ning Ning has been talking to her for two or three years.

   Never mention anything about marriage.

  I always feel that the two of them are more like a mutual comfort relationship than a couple.

  Purely meet physiological needs.

   "So...you agree?"

"Um."

  Li Ningning nodded:

"I believe in Director Xu's character. As you know, I am in charge of volunteer management. Didn't I tell you that too? We have seen many filmmakers, big and small, and Director Xu was the first to stand up and pay attention. Those who gave us the details of the film exhibition and gave encouragement. After his interview that day, many people cried...I thought that these movie stars would feel poor when I talked about such a difficult film exhibition...But after hearing what he said It's all worth it. Because...we're doing what we're passionate about..."

   She has a big smile on her face:

"So I think that if I can look at the director at the bottom, his character must not be bad. In addition, my dad always hopes that I can be stable... After all, I am not married or have a formal job at my age in our hometown. , Many people think that I am not doing my job properly. My dad feels that his face is not honorable..."

   After she finished speaking, she shrugged her shoulders, indicating that she voted for it, and remained silent.

  Song Wen subconsciously looked at Li Ziwei.

  But found that Li Ziwei was also looking at him.

   "..."

   "..."

  Looked at each other, speechless.

   After more than a minute of silence, Li Ziwei said:

   "Let me talk first."

   She scratched her head:

   "Actually...it doesn't matter to me. If...you can discuss with Director Xu...or the factory about keeping Binzi in Yanjing, then I can do anything else.

  I am somewhat similar to Ning Ning's point of view. If she didn't mention her family, I might be even more indifferent. But she brought up the family... I thought, my parents are not young anymore. I'm 30 this year, and it's really hard to find a boyfriend.

  If I can stabilize and implement my personal life, I think my parents will feel at ease. This is a personal aspect.

   As for career... I pay more attention to what Director Xu said. He said...the film festival is matched with Shaanxi's cultural tourism. Didn't I tell you before? Xi'an, the city that never sleeps in the Tang Dynasty, is their tourist card. It must not be something anticlimactic~

   Moreover, I don’t know if you heard it, he proposed a... a vocabulary that is quite unfamiliar to us, called—Northwest Circle.

  I don’t know how much you know about these things, but I know about the relationship between actors and directors all the year round. They are very particular about this, for example, if someone has a grudge against someone, I will not go if he appears. For example, the location of the red carpet... These are the actors who pay more attention to.

  The director pays more attention to such circles and factions.

  I think Director Xu can reach this position at such a young age. His future potential must not be simple. And since he has chosen to be deeply bound with Xiying Studio...it means that he must have seen the potential of Xiying Studio...Is it right?

  We don’t know much about these in a strict sense, but since Director Xu, Yang Mi, and Liang Bingning have all chosen Xiying Studio, it should be good for us to follow suit. The above is my personal opinion. "

  After making a summary, Li Ziwei continued:

"Next is the film festival... I thought about it. If we follow our backup plan, we will also cooperate with other cities. Haven't we mentioned the objective conditions? It's too far away, too far away. Stars and directors may not be able to Come, so be sure to have a city with an airport.

   There is no city that can give back, just like the XN city that sent us an invitation. It's still west of Xi'an, it's too far away. It is not too much to say that it is a desert in the entertainment industry. Compared with Xi'an, it must be worse.

  Finally, there is the issue of influence...I really didn’t pay much attention to the influence of Xiying Film Studio before. It is known that people like Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige came from here. But after visiting the honor room and museum today, I found that their influence almost radiates the entire film and television circle.

  So, my opinion is also in favor. The premise is to communicate with Binzi and see how to deal with it. The four of us have suffered together. I hope that I will not only be a lifelong partner with you, but also a lifelong friend who can work together and never be separated! "

  After she finished speaking, she finally looked at Song Wen.

   It's 2-1 now.

  The last vote, it's up to him to decide.

  As the founder, he is also the final decision maker of the small team.

  He actually thinks a lot.

  On the one hand, no one mentioned any money, so he felt very touched.

  I feel that I am capable and capable, and I have found three like-minded partners.

   On the other hand... he felt a little shameless.

  Because he could feel it from the content of the chat this afternoon...Xi Film Studio does not absolutely need them.

  Even he knew it himself.

  Not to mention anything else, what kind of resources does Director Xu have?

   If you really want to talk about the film festival, a group of people will go crazy to find him to cooperate.

   But he received the four of himself, and chose to treat each other with sincerity.

   It really saves face.

  But now if I want to settle in Xi'an, I have to bargain with others because of the personal reasons of the team...

  How can we be qualified to bargain with others?

   It’s not that people beg us.

  And he actually felt in his heart...the conditions offered by Xiying Studio were very generous.

  Being able to come out of Yanjing, he is not afraid of going far away.

   But now for a state-owned enterprise that doesn’t absolutely need them, let’s talk about terms…

   No matter how you look at it, it is a ridiculous thing.

   But for the sake of his teammate, he hesitated again and again...

   "I agree, but it's the same as Ziwei's point of view. If Binzi's matter can be resolved, we can sell our lives to him. But if it can't be resolved..."

  He looked at Xu Kaibin:

   "Since everyone came out together, we must be together if we want to do it. I will call Director Xu to discuss it. If they can agree, I hope you can take back the words that you can't stand nine to five!"

"It's okay, I understand when you go to the country and do as the Romans do. As long as you don't separate me from the children...or if you really want to stay here, you don't have to count me together. I can't delay the three of you. At worst, I'll be someone else's pawn." Just the trainer. I have experience in bringing out so many volunteers with Ningning.”

   Between the words of the four people, the harmony was in a mess.

   Song Wen didn't say anything, but just dialed Xu Xin's number directly.

  The sound of "beep" after turning on the hands-free is like a signal of "final judgment", making everyone wait without daring to take a breath.

  Until Xu Xin connects:

   "Hello, President Song, hello."

  …

  In Liang Bingning's office, Xu Xin connected the phone.

   "Director Xu, hello, I have something I want to discuss with you."

   "Well, you say."

   "Xu Kaibin from our team..."

   After recounting the ins and outs of the incident, he put forward his appeal:

"Look, is there a solution for his situation? Since the four of us came out together, we definitely want to stay together. But he really wants his children to stay in Yanjing to receive a better education. Besides, it's a divorced family ..."

   "Well, I understand."

  After understanding what he meant, Xu Xin thought for a while and said:

"The factory does have an office in Yanjing. The people in the office basically perform a variety of functions. And after the film festival enters the preparatory stage, Yanjing really needs to retain people for docking work. So theoretically speaking , job transfer is no problem.

  But there is a premise, that is, after the work is on the right track. Now the start-up stage is the busiest time, and there are only three of you left. This condition is basically impossible to achieve, and it is also unreasonable.

  Mr. Song, we sincerely extend the invitation, but the invitation does not mean that we are compromising. You must distinguish this clearly. Think about it, if you were the boss, and a candidate told you that he could not fully perform the job he was applying for. So would you agree? "

   Seeing that he was a bit confused about the big and small kings, Xu Xin tapped him.

   Not everyone can negotiate conditions with Xiying Studio.

  Although this matter is not big, he must let Song Wen understand that no leader likes small groups.

   Let you come, let you work.

  If you continue to hold together, you will start in the wrong direction from the very beginning.

   "Uh... this... I'm sorry, Director Xu, I was a little careless."

"No need to apologize, what I mean is actually very simple. I know what you four mean. You have been here for so many years. But I hope you can also understand one thing. Work is work and life is life. At work, The factory will give everyone convenience as much as possible, but this is not an excuse to become a condition.

   In other words, Mr. Song, my promise to you is that the film festival will be edited after its successful opening. But when you put forward these conditions, you thought about how you would deal with yourself when I threw you out after draining your use value with some bad intentions? "

  Xu Xin suddenly shook out a possibility that made Song Wen's back feel a little chilled.

  Before he had time to think about it, Xu Xin continued:

"So, what I talk to you is from the bottom of my heart. I have given you the greatest respect, but at the same time, the four of you must understand one thing, that is, any unit, any team, and anyone, for small groups, It's all very disgusting. We want to find like-minded partners, and we treat them with frankness and sincerity. But if you start to think of yourself as a small group before you even come in, that's unnecessary. I mean Did you communicate clearly?"

   "Ming...understood, Director Xu. We understand."

"Well, that's fine. Of course, as for whether to work in Beijing, my promise is still valid. If the film festival is successfully held and is on the right track, then the position can be adjusted. But before that, the factory can't agree. Is there anything else? If not, I have a meeting here..."

   "It's gone, it's gone, I'm sorry, Director Xu, I really caused you trouble..."

   "Well, then I'll hang up first."

   "Okay, Director Xu, goodbye."

"See you."

  The phone hangs up.

   Liang Bingning, who heard from the beginning to the end, said with a smile:

   "It sounds familiar."

"What?"

  Xu Xin looked up at her wonderingly.

   "You're doing this trick... Looking back at the beginning, it seems that I was also slapped by your trick to give me a sweet date."

   "..."

  Xu Xin suddenly became embarrassed.

   Not really.

It really is…

  So he hurried to make up:

   "I'm not slapping Tianzao, but telling the truth."

   "So it's called Enwei Bingshi?"

   "..."

   Speechless Xu Xin turned to look at his wife.

  One word for both eyes:

"help me."

   As for Yang Mi, half of her was pretending to be stupid, and she didn't want to get involved in this.

  The other half, her mind is not here at all.

   Just heard the sound effect of gold coins colliding on her mobile phone from time to time, ding ding dong dong.

  At this moment, she didn't talk to her husband at all.

   You two talk, don't take me, I'll play games for a while.

   "Temple Run", it's fun.

   And Liang Bingning didn't delve too deeply into it. Everyone was just sitting together and chatting.

  I didn’t intend to mention any work or anything like that.

   But Xu Xin's phone call made her curiously ask:

   "The factory is going to hold a film festival?"

"Um."

  He didn't explain why Liang Bingning didn't know about this kind of thing.

  Why do the actors participate in the management...

   That is ultra vires.

   And Liang Bingning also understood this truth. After Xu Xin agreed, she continued to ask:

"when?"

   "Within two years."

"internationality?"

   "Domestic. The form is the same as the three major European countries, but first do a good job in the country and then talk about other things. It belongs to the supporting link of culture and tourism."

   "Well...the judges..."

   "There must be a place for you."

"And you?"

   "Me? I won't get involved. I'll be the person in charge of the director's support plan. After all, I'm at this age. If I enter the jury, I'm afraid it will cause some controversy."

  Hearing this, Liang Bingning was a little surprised:

   "So cautious?"

   "Hmm...it's okay."

   One sentence is okay, so Liang Bingning didn't know how to continue the conversation.

  Actually, she still cared about the phone call that night.

  I want to ask Xu Xin what he thinks.

  But she is usually very good at chatting, but today she feels a little unable to keep up with Xu Xin's train of thought.

  He seemed to be avoiding something deliberately.

   While tormenting specious hesitation, Yang Mi put away the phone:

   "Bah! Garbage game! Destroy my youth!"

   After cursing the street, she stood up directly:

   "Do you have anything else to do this afternoon?"

"Gone."

  After Xu Xin finished speaking sincerely, Yang Mi asked again:

   "When will Director Zhang arrive?"

   "Around 6 o'clock."

  Hearing this, Yang Mi turned to look at Liang Bingning again:

   "Sister, let's have dinner at home tonight."

   "Uh... good."

   "Well, let's go? The three elders haven't eaten my cooking for a few days. I'm in a good mood today, let's show off."

   Just as Liang Bingning was wondering who the "three big boys" were, the couple patted their buttocks to say hello and left.

  She looked at the closed door of the office...

   Gradually, a look of helplessness appeared on his face.

   Immediately afterwards, the helplessness turned into a wave of worry.

   But I am worried that there are some weird things in it.

   Finally, all emotions turned into a sigh.

   took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Wang Dongying:

   "Yingying, cancel the dinner with the group tonight for me, just say I'm not feeling well, so I won't go."

  …

   Jay Chou likes to eat French or Italian food.

  I especially like Yang Mi's Neapolitan seafood stew.

  Wang Sicong likes to eat noodles, and likes to eat the flower rolls made by Xu Xin's sister-in-law. In terms of the taste selection of dishes, I prefer home-cooked tastes.

  As long as it is the food of the old Xu's family, there is basically no dissatisfaction.

  Where is Lao Lang, he likes stewed meat.

  He doesn't like to eat particularly strong stewed meat, and his favorite is the second meal of braised pork and boiled cabbage.

   There is still fried shredded pork with green peppers left over.

   You can skip the shredded pork, but the green peppers that have been marinated in vegetable soup are my favorite.

   There is also a second meal of fish jelly.

   I don’t know what Sister Bingbing likes to eat, but Director Zhang likes to eat steamed buns. I don’t pick meat or vegetables, but I like to eat it with a bowl of thick porridge.

  The two of them drove out from Xiying Studio and walked all the way to the supermarket.

   Not long after entering a large supermarket with a mask, the big and small bags were brought out.

  It was just after four o'clock when I got home.

  She started to work.

  First stir-fry shredded chili pepper randomly, just stir-fry it with salt and soy sauce casually, cover it with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator after frying.

   Taken out like this, it is the second meal of shredded pork with green peppers.

   There is also a sea bass next to it. The body and belly of the fish are full of shredded **** and scallions, which have been marinated with pepper and cooking wine.

  Yang Dalin, who was working in the kitchen, had already blanched the meat, and after she finished frying the peppers, she started frying the sugar.

   Soon, there was a sound of sizzling, and the home-cooked braised pork had already entered the pot.

   After stewing, Yang Mi began to cut the tomatoes.

   Yang Dalin, who freed his hands, began to cut cowpeas for his daughter.

   Cowpea with minced meat, used to sandwich buns, or put a spoonful on the thick porridge, and eat with chopsticks.

  This dish is as comfortable as it is to eat.

  When Yang Mi's pot of freshly boiled tomato juice began to simmer, Yang Dalin also cut up the cowpea, put it on a plate and put it aside.

  Yang Mi or the minced meat gave it a taste.

  Yang Dalin started to deal with the whole three-yellow chicken he bought.

   The sound of chopping and chopping sounded.

  Yang Mi's side started talking.

  From a noodle-making novice at the beginning to a hand-rolling expert now, her skills in kneading dough with one hand, and her mental and physical skills can be regarded as the same.

  The noodles are divided into two pots, and the amount is not much.

   One portion contains yeast, which is used for cheese buns and steamed flower rolls for Wang Sicong. One portion is kneaded with alkaline noodle water, this kind of alkaline noodle is strong, and her man likes to eat it.

  When the noodles wake up, the chickens over there are also chopped.

   Not blanching, but soaking in cold water.

  The water has to be changed two to three times to soak out the blood and fry it.

   There is a little more soup in the raw stir-fry, and I will save it for my man to make noodles.

  After all these are processed, the tomato sauce is almost collected. The tomato sauce with three different flavors of tomato puree, tomato sauce and fresh tomato is added, which is the base for cooking Neapolitan-style seafood stew.

  When she finished, the mother in the living room had already processed the shrimp strings, abalone viscera, etc., and came in with a bowl of seafood.

  Put the braised pork on the induction cooker and continue to simmer, and finally got a moment of respite and walked out of the kitchen.

  In the living room, Xu Xin was picking vegetables.

   This is the only job he can do.

  A basket of green vegetables, a bowl of garlic, and a pot of potatoes.

   This is the result of his busy work for more than an hour.

  Scary inefficiency.

   But Yang Mi doesn't dislike it either.

  Do what you can.

  Just when she looked at the cabbage beside her husband, she sighed speechlessly.

   A good cabbage was chopped into a baby dish by you.

  You think you are so promising!

  Full of helplessness, she hypocritically walked to his side:

   "Awesome, I reward you with one~"

  After the words fell, Xu Xin raised his head.

   "Baji" she just took a bite.

   Then he collapsed on the sofa and checked the time...

   One full hour.

  Well, not bad not bad.

  Take a break, wait for everyone to come back and start cooking.

  Tonight's menu: braised pork, fried chicken, Neapolitan seafood stew, shredded pork with green peppers, minced cowpea meat, fried vegetables with vegetables, shredded potatoes with vinegar, and peanuts for drinking.

   Exactly eight dishes.

  Staple food: steamed buns with fresh cheese, hand-rolled alkaline water noodles, thick porridge...

Oh yes.

   The porridge hasn't been boiled yet.

  She quickly bounced off the sofa.

  The time is short, and it won’t work if it doesn’t get mushy.

   It seems that our Shaanxi daughter-in-law is not capable.
