Chapter 180: A Tao

Zheng Dasheng has been bumpy all over his head during this time, but it is not without benefits, at least this qi cultivation kung fu is growing quickly.

Although I was surprised that the woman in front of me was beautiful, temperamental, and rich, there was no rudeness on her face, and she smiled and invited the mother and daughter to sit down, not in a hurry to go straight to the point, but first let the waiter serve breakfast and morning tea.

A person who can finish his studies with a scholarship must not have a bad IQ, and he can write his own script and publish articles, and there will be no shortage of ink in his stomach. Without a trace, he praised Xia Meiling's beauty and the little girl's well-behaved cuteness.

The only fly in the ointment was that the little girl would also smile whenever he laughed, and then cover her mouth, making him a little baffled.

After eating breakfast and morning tea, the topic slowly entered the journey.

"I heard that Miss Xia used to be a teacher at the film school?" Zhengdaisheng said.

Xia Meiling nodded slightly.

"I'll call you Teacher Xia." Zheng Taisheng said: "I think Mr. Xia should have extraordinary insights into movies? โ€

Xia Meiling was actually reluctant to speak, and she was a little impatient with this man's grinding and chirping way of talking. He nodded slightly, glanced down at his watch, and then looked at Lu Chuan on the side.

Lu Chuan was also reluctant to be a broker, but he couldn't get rid of the friendship of his friends so he agreed to ask Teacher Xia out, and he didn't think about interjecting, but it was not okay not to interject at this time.

"Ahem... That is true. Brother Da Sheng has a script that he wants you to read Teacher Xia. โ€

"Why are you letting me see it?" Xia Meiling frowned slightly and said, "What I teach in school is only vocal music, and I don't know much about how to make movies, let alone make up stories and change scripts." โ€

Zhengda Sheng wondered why Lu Chuan suddenly shook it out so suddenly, but he couldn't take it back after saying it, and he himself was a little awkward about the twisted way of speaking just now, so he simply said directly: "I came to cooperate with you, you came to make a tastemaker, and I came to shoot." Here's the script, you can take a look at it first. โ€

Xia Meiling glanced at Lu Chuan with a smile in her eyes. Lu Chuan smiled awkwardly and touched his head like a pin. For the first time, he knew that Teacher Xia, who usually looked gentle, still had such a side, and his eyes that were as plain as water could be like knives when he fell on people.

Xia Meiling withdrew her gaze, avoiding the expectant eyes of Zhengdasheng waiting for a reply, and did not move the script placed in the center of the table. Thinking in my heart.

"Mom, what did this uncle tell you to do?" Xiao Tian sat up on his knees in the chair and said.

Xia Meiling smiled and stroked her head and said, "Make a movie." โ€

"Really?" The little girl's eyes widened, "Then call Uncle Di and Sister Xu too, and me, let's shoot together." โ€

Xia Meiling smiled and didn't speak, and helped her in the chair. Reached out and took the script and flipped through it.

Zheng Dasheng leaned back in his chair and breathed a sigh of relief, willing to read the script, there is still hope, at least it is much better than the people I met before who didn't read the script and only asked how much it cost and then simply refused.

The script is not thin, and the narration is very detailed.

She looked up after reading more than a dozen pages, found that her daughter was not around, and asked Lu Chuan, "Where is my daughter?" โ€

"I'm going to the bathroom." Lu Chuan said.

"Oh." Xia Meiling nodded and continued to read the script.

The story is still very good, not so much a script, but more like a thought-provoking novel, regardless of whether it can shoot touching scenes or not. At least the author described it very touching, and it quickly captured Xia Meiling's heart.

At the end of the ten-year catastrophe, Yilan, a 13-year-old urban girl, visited her mother, who was sent to Taohuazhai in a remote mountainous area of western Hunan to work as a primary school teacher, and met the Tujia girl A Tao's family. Ah Tao is pure, kind, sensible and tenacious, and supports her sister to go to school with her superb embroidery skills, which deeply touched Yilan, and the two are as close as sisters, and the trajectories of childhood gradually coincide. They watched the crazy grandmother together, bought red shoes together and ran through every inch of land. Highlight and dye cloth together, and experience the pain of Ah Tao's little sister being stolen by a boar together...... With the rehabilitation of her mother, Yilan also separated from Ah Tao, and the trajectories of the two little girls no longer coincided. However, years later. Yilan went to work abroad, and when she visited an international folk art exhibition, she immediately recognized Ah Tao's large-scale embroidery "Peach Blossom Village".

The story unfolds from the perspective of Yilan, unfolding a picture of simple life in the mountainous areas of Xiangxi.

After reading it, Xia Meiling glanced to the side again, but still didn't see her daughter come back, she stood up with a frown and said, "I'm sorry." I'll go over and take a look. After saying that, he walked briskly in the direction of the bathroom.

Lu Chuan and Zheng Dasheng glanced at each other, and Lu Chuan also stood up and said, "You sit here and wait, I'll go over and take a look." โ€

I looked inside the women's bathroom, and there was no one, so she jumped up in her heart, turned around and entered the men's bathroom, regardless of the stunned eyes of the man standing next to the urinal, pushed open every cubicle and looked at it, but still didn't see Xiao Tiantian's figure.

Rushing out of the bathroom, he directly found the waiter at the morning tea hall and asked anxiously, "Have you seen a little girl of five or six years old?" โ€

The waiter shook his head.

A diner next to him said, "I saw a little girl go out just now." โ€

Xia Meiling immediately ran out of the morning tea house, standing at the door and looking left and right, but there were people coming and going on the street, where was the figure of her daughter, her face became pale, and she only felt that her eyes were black for a while.

Suddenly remembered something, took out his mobile phone with trembling hands, and dialed Di Yun's house.

Di Yun didn't know if Teacher Xia knew that the little girl had come to him, and was about to make a phone call to inform him, when the phone suddenly rang.

picked it up and connected it, and inside was Teacher Xia's trembling and nervous voice.

"Little... Xiaoyun, Tian Tian... In the absence of... Not in your place? โ€

"Yes, she just came by herself, I thought you knew." Di Yun laughed.

As a result, the other end of the phone suddenly became a blind tone.

Di Yun took the phone and turned his brain a little to figure out that Teacher Xia was probably going crazy, and urged Lao Xu to hurry up and freshen up, ready to send the little girl over.

Xia Meiling on the other end of the phone heard Di Yun's affirmative reply, and the big stone hanging in her heart smashed down, smashing all the strength of her body without a trace, leaning against the wall softly, the mobile phone slipped from her hand and fell to the ground and fell into three pieces.

Lu Chuan followed out of the hall and saw Teacher Xia leaning against the wall, covering his face with his hands, his shoulders trembling slightly.

"You... ...... your daughter? Lu Chuan asked.

Xia Meiling touched the corners of her eyes with her fingers, raised her head and smiled slightly: "It's okay, she went to a friend of mine, you go in first, I'll go in a while." โ€

After Lu Chuan entered, Xia Meiling leaned against the wall for a while, and only when she could feel the warmth of the falling sun did she regain her strength, picked up the mobile phone that was divided into three pieces on the ground, pressed the battery, buckled the back cover, turned it on again, and called Di Yun again.

After hanging up the phone, he patted his cheek lightly twice, and then re-entered the morning tea house.

Zheng Dasheng had already heard from Lu Chuan what was going on and the result, and when he saw her come in, he didn't ask, but looked at her with earnest eyes and waited for a speech.

Xia Meiling has already seen the story, she doesn't know movies anymore, after all, she has been teaching in the film academy for several years, and she knows a little bit about it, so she can see that this is a good book. However, whether to invest in a movie or not is not a decision that can be made at the moment, she has to think about it carefully, but it does not prevent her from understanding how much it costs to make this movie.

Brushing the hair that was a little scattered under anxiety just now, he asked, "What's your budget?" โ€

Zhengdasheng pursed his lips, and finally gritted his teeth and gave the number: "One and a half million, I can raise five hundred thousand myself." โ€

His original budget was 2 million, and he thought that all of them would be funded by the producer, and he could just shoot it, but now he feels that it is unlikely, so he compressed the budget to 1.5 million, and he was afraid that this number would scare away the woman in front of him, and he was ready to fill it with 500,000 yuan.

Lu Chuan, who was next to him, understood the situation, and saw that he had compressed the budget, so he raised his eyebrows and glanced at him without speaking.

Xia Meiling nodded, and said with a shallow smile: "I'll take the script back and study it again, and give you an answer within a week, is it okay?" โ€

What CPSENG hopes most is that the negotiation will be completed immediately, and then the money will arrive tomorrow, and preparations will start the day after tomorrow. But he also understands that this is simply impossible, and making a movie, whether it is to attract investment or build a group, is never a quick thing.

It's normal for anyone to think about this kind of thing, but if this woman just slapped the table and agreed to him, it would feel unreal.

smiled: "This is as it should be." โ€

After sending Lu Chuan and Zhengdasheng away, she stood alone at the door of the morning tea hall and waited.

It didn't take long to see Di Yun and Xu Jinglei walking over with their daughter.

Watching her daughter holding the hands of the two of them while walking and swinging, the happy laughter could be heard dozens of meters away, and she was a little stunned for a while.

First, when she rushed out of the morning tea house and didn't see her daughter, the whole sky seemed to collapse, she didn't dare to imagine what would happen if her daughter suddenly disappeared, the feeling of standing under the sun but being cold like being in a cold cellar was too terrible.

Seeing that her daughter let go of Di Yun and Xu Jinglei's hands and ran over, she wiped the corners of her eyes with her hair, squatted down and hugged her tightly in her arms.

The little girl was very sensitive, moved Teacher Xia's head straight, looked at her red eyes and asked, "Mom, are you like this?" โ€

Xia Meiling shook her head with a smile and stood up.

The little girl continued to ask: "Is it that bald head bullying mother, bald heads are big villains, let Uncle Di teach him a lesson!" โ€

Di Yun, who was standing on the side, touched his bald head, as if he was also bald.

After the little girl finished speaking, she turned around and saw Uncle Di's head, which was a little shiny in the sun, and found that she seemed to have said the wrong thing, and looked at him in a daze, her fingers gently scratching her little face, looking very cute.
