Xu Shi came to the place where he had made an appointment with Wang Lixin in advance, and before he sat down and waited for two minutes, Wang Lixin had already arrived, obviously he also left in advance.

"Brother Wang, long time no see. Xu Shi stood up and greeted him.

"Haha, Brother Xu has been very beautiful during this time, I look at it with envy. Wang Lixin laughed and gave Xu Shi a bear hug.

"Brother Wang laughed, in fact, during this period of time, I had a nervous tension, and I almost became a nervous breakdown. Xu Shi said with a smile.

While talking, the two sat down separately, and after calling the waiter to order the food, the two chatted warmly again.

This time, Xu Shi wanted to ask Wang Lixin for help, and Wang Lixin also wanted to take the opportunity to get closer to Xu Shi, so the atmosphere seemed very good for a while.

After the dishes were served, Xu Shi and Wang Lixin drank half a catty of wine, and seeing that the atmosphere was almost over, Xu Shi also said the purpose of his visit this time.

"Brother Wang, I wonder if you have any free time during this time?" asked Xu Shi.

"Yes, brother has something to say, I will definitely help you if I can do it here. Wang Lixin patted his chest and reassured.

Xu Shi smiled: "That's the case, Brother Wang, you should have heard of it, I signed a TV drama agreement with Modu TV some time ago, and I am about to start work, but I haven't found a suitable director, so I want to ask you if you have time here." ”

Hearing Xu Shi say this, Wang Lixin hesitated a little, and his face was a little embarrassed.

Seeing his hesitant appearance, Xu Shi sighed in his heart, knowing that this time it was estimated that he was going to be yellow, and it seemed that he could only ask Modu TV for help, but when the time came, he was afraid that the relationship within the crew would be tense, after all, it was impossible for him to completely hand over a crew to an outsider.

"Brother, it's not that my brother doesn't help you with this, I won't tell you, I haven't touched a TV series for many years, and I'm not going to touch it, I'm really embarrassed. Wang Lixin said apologetically.

Originally, he was going to take this opportunity to sell a favor to Xu Shi, but he didn't expect Xu Shi to mention this matter.

As he said, he hasn't filmed a TV series for a long time, and he finally entered the film industry, he has just made some achievements, and now he wants to plunge into the TV industry headlong, and he is not very willing to do such a thing.

And to be honest, his confidence in filming martial arts dramas is not so sufficient, especially when he cooperates with Xu Shi, which requires a big risk.

You must know that now Xu Shi has succeeded in two movies one after another, and they are both great successes, and everyone knows that Xu Shi doesn't care about the things filmed, just the content.

So if this TV series is not filmed well, whose responsibility is it? Of course, it is the director's, and it is 100% responsible, the kind that no one believes in shirking, which is also the reason for Wang Lixin's refusal, and he doesn't want to damage his reputation because of this.

Now Xu Shi is indeed very successful in movies, but TV series and movies are another concept, which does not mean that Xu Shi can still be successful, but everyone is more optimistic.

Xu Shi didn't force this, and said with a smile: "It's okay, Brother Wang, you also have your own difficulties, I can understand, okay, don't talk about this, come, I'll toast you again." ”

Although he was a little disappointed in his heart, Xu Shi would not have a bad feeling towards Wang Lixin for such a thing, after all, this is you asking others to help, and if others don't help, they can't hate others.

After Wang Lixin and Xu Shi touched a cup, they thought for a while, and suddenly thought of a person, and said to Xu Shi: "Brother, do you remember Han Shang?"

Xu Shi thought about it for a while, and felt that this name was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.

"It's the one who asked you to shoot a TV series last year. Wang Lixin reminded.

As soon as he said this, Xu Shi immediately remembered that this Han Shang was introduced by Wang Lixin to him to shoot a TV series last year.

It's just that Xu Shi didn't want to shoot a TV series at that time, and the new movie was about to be established, so he refused.

"I remember, has the filming of his TV series been completed?" asked Xu Shi.

Wang Lixin said with a wry smile: "The filming is over, and it has been broadcast, but the ratings are still not good, and now this incident has hit him hard, and this time is a little depressed." ”

There are many people in their small circle who are optimistic about this Han Shang and have given a lot of support, and this Han Shang also has the ability, but I don't know why, the ratings of the TV series filmed have not been very high.

Xu Shi understood what he meant, but he still said with some skepticism: "Brother Wang, can he agree? You must know my rules, you also know, I thought he was still quite arrogant at that time, I was afraid that there would be a conflict at that time, so that everyone's face would not look good." ”

Xu Shi is still not very optimistic about Han Shang, not about his ability, Xu Shi hasn't seen this anyway, just about his character.

Wang Lixin immediately said: "Don't worry about this, now this kid's arrogance has been almost consumed, and we are also worried that he will fall silent because of this."

To be honest, we are really optimistic about Han Shang's ability, he is very talented in directing and has his own unique opinions, but ..... Ay. ”

Xu Shi listened to Wang Lixin's words quietly, and he was still reluctant to choose this Han Shang in his heart, although what Wang Lixin said now sounded good, but when the time came, there was really a problem, and there was a contradiction, which was not good for anyone.

Wang Lixin also saw Xu Shi's embarrassment, thought for a while, and said: "Brother, this time is a begging for you, you can try it first, don't worry, as long as there is a problem between you because of his character, we will solve it here, and promise to bring him back immediately, and then help you find a suitable candidate." ”

Wang Lixin was a little speechless after speaking, he originally wanted to take this opportunity to sell Xu Shi's favor, but who would have thought that now he actually owed Xu Shi a favor.

Xu Shi didn't feel easy to refuse when he heard Wang Lixin say this, and the words came to this, and if he refused, it would seem that he was not close to him.

And Wang Lixin also helped himself a lot at the beginning, so he also needed to give him this face.

"That's okay, but Brother Wang, I'm talking ugly ahead, if Han Shang is not suitable, I won't force him to stay.

I'll tell you the truth, I have my own thoughts about this TV series, and it's a big deal for our company, so I hope you can understand. ”

As soon as Xu Shi said this, Wang Lixin didn't understand that he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to pick up some people in the company.

Immediately, Wang Lixin said: "Brother, I assure you that Han Shang's personal ability is absolutely not the slightest problem, and this time it is just right for him to try other styles."

And ordinary people can't suppress him, only you make him honest and obedient, so that he can stop being stubborn and understand that some changes should be made. ”

"That's okay, the matter will be settled first, and when I have time to let Han Shang go to my company, I also need to take another look, as long as there are no major problems, he should be decided." ”

Xu Shi also can't do anything, who made him not know many directors at all, Cheng Guochao has something, Wang Lixin refuses, and Zhang Kui doesn't have this ability, so he can only let Han Shang try it first.

After chatting with Cheng Guochao for a while, the two sides will go back separately, originally Xu Shi thought that Han Shang would have to wait a few days to come over, but who knew that Han Shang would arrive at the company the next day.

When Xu Shi saw Han Shang again, he almost didn't recognize him, although Han Shang's face at this time could be seen to have been taken care of, but the haggard was still very obvious.

And the arrogance of the first meeting has completely disappeared, and the whole person has become very dull.

"Han Shang, I won't say much superfluous, I invited you over this time just to make you the director of the TV series that our company is about to shoot, I don't know what you think?" Xu Shi said straight to the point.

Originally, Xu Shi also wanted to find someone to inspect Han Shang's professional ability, but after he found a few people through the corn, these people heard that it was Han Shang and directly told him that Han Shang was very good in terms of professional ability.

And what Xu Shi needs is professional ability, so he immediately decided not to examine Han Shang's ability, as long as he agrees to the conditions on his side.

Han Shanglai also got Wang Lixin's information before, and said without an opinion on this: "Yes, I agree." ”

It can be heard that his voice has lost its sharpness and has become much more depressed.

Xu Shi thought for a while and said: "Maybe you don't know the operating rules of our company, so let me tell you, in the filming process of this TV series, you only need to do your job as a director."

That is, you have a say in the picture and effect of the shooting, as long as you are not satisfied, we will try our best to complete the shooting according to your requirements.

But you can't interfere too much in the plot of the TV series, to put it bluntly, in terms of the plot, if you and I have a different opinion, my opinion will be the main one. ”

Xu Shijiang said it very clearly, and he didn't hide it at all.

After explaining the matter, if Han Shang agrees, then there will really be a dispute at that time, and he is justified on his side, not bullying people.

Xu Shi saw that when he finished saying this, Han Shang's hand tightened slightly, and finally said in a low voice, "I know." ”

Seeing his appearance, Xu Shi couldn't help but explain.

"Han Shang, this kind of thing is not aimed at you, our company still recognizes your personal ability very much.

It's just that this is the rule of our company, whether it's a movie or a TV series, if you take a closer look, you will know that the first two movies of our company were also shot like this. ”

After he explained this, Han Shang was indeed a little surprised, and then his expression became a little more relaxed.

Obviously, he didn't know about Xu Shi's situation before, which also made Xu Shi a little speechless.

Fortunately, he said one more word, otherwise this Han Shang estimated that he would have a knot in his heart from now on.

"Since you agreed, then let's sign the contract later, by the way, this is the pre-script for the TV series we are about to shoot, you can take it back and read it later, and by the way, figure out how to shoot some scenes. Xu Shi handed over a copy of the script in his hand.

Wu Ji's work efficiency is still very fast, after all, they only need to fill in some details and lines.

Two episodes have been completed in one day, and Xu Shi just happened to show it to Han Shang and let him ponder.

Han Shang took it, looked at it a little, and couldn't help but read out the name of the script "The Hero of the Wind and Clouds Dominates the World".

Yes, this is the TV series selected by Xu Shi, this TV series has many outstanding characters, and there are not only two protagonists in it.

The domineering hero, the respectful Qin Shuang, the deep-minded broken waves, the nameless god of the sword, the sword saint of the amazing era (Sword Twenty-three)...........

can have too many eye-catching characters in this TV series, and almost every character has his own story, which is difficult to see in many TV series now.

And Xu Shi's ultimate goal is to make some of the company's actors popular, so this TV series is a very suitable one.

Of course, it's not that there is only this one option, there are many more, but Xu Shi thought about it and made this one first.

Han Shang looked at the script, he didn't pay much attention to it at first, but he quickly immersed himself in it, and he couldn't help but imagine the shot in his mind, and his originally low mood gradually began to get excited.

Although there are only two episodes, some of the grievances and love-hate entanglements in them have already begun to appear.

When he raised his eyes again and wanted to find Xu Shi for the next script, he found that Xu Shi had already left, and couldn't help but look at the remaining one and asked, "Where is Mr. Xu?"

"Director Han, the rest of the script is still being improved, what you see has been written, when do you think it will be convenient to sign the contract?"

"It's okay now, by the way, when can I start working?" Han Shang's already depressed mind also became active at this time.

"Mr. Xu ordered, you can do it at any time, if you have time, you can go and form the crew first, if you don't have a suitable candidate, our company will also arrange it for the crew. ”

..............

Xu Shike didn't have time to waste time with Han Shang here, arrange things, and then he needed to prepare to go to Taiwan Province.

This time, "Hacker" has a total of six nominations, including a nomination for Best Actor, which can't help but make Xu Shi a little excited.

Although he doesn't see himself as a filmmaker yet, if he can win the best actor, it is also an affirmation of him, and he is naturally very happy.

This time he needs to take Zhang Kui and Wang Feiyun together, the nomination for the Best Director Award is Zhang Kui, and he and Wang Feiyun also have the Best Screenplay Award.

As for Zhai Meirong, she has already passed in advance, she has many old friends in Taiwan Province, and she happened to take this opportunity to catch up with the old days, so she didn't wait for them.
