"Where's Director Xu?"

As soon as Deng Shengxing walked into the conference room, he glanced around.

Aside from Xu Ji, he was apparently the last to arrive.

At this time, several other directors had already arrived.

"I don't know."

"But Minister Hu and Duan Lao haven't come yet, Xu Ji should be with them."

Zang Sheng said violently.

After Deng Shengxing found an empty seat and sat down, there was a smile on his face.

He was almost certain of his previous judgment at this point.

That is, the process of writing the script is very likely to not go well.

I guess I'm still "thinking about it" now.

So he was the first to speak:

"Shall we remind Director Xu?"

"After all, although it is important for him to write the script, it doesn't take long to come to a meeting."

"He doesn't really want to finish the script today, does he?"

"A slight delay of two days shouldn't make a big difference, right?"

Zang Sheng also nodded after hearing this.

"It's really going to call Director Xu along."

"After all, we need to discuss the release time."

Deng Shengxing proposed with a playful face:

"Otherwise, since Director Xu can finish the script in one day, his movie will definitely be completed the fastest."

"How about having his movie come out in May or June?"

And Wang Huilan, the first-line director of Tianwuchao who heard this, finally couldn't help it.

He replied:

"It will be released in May and June, and the filming and post-production will only take more than a month and less than two months."

"Why don't you go and see if you can do it yourself?"

Deng Shengxing spread his hands.

"I didn't say I could finish the script in a day."

"This kind of thing can only be done by Director Xu."

"After all, you're young and energetic."

Wang Huilan snorted and stopped talking.

She's not the kind of person who is particularly good at playing tricks.

It is not advantageous to take advantage of Deng Shengxing.

......

It didn't take long for Hu Lan and Duan Shengyu to walk in.

After Hu Lan sat down, he said directly:

"The specific release time is mainly up to you to negotiate."

"I'll make sure that I don't interfere with everyone's decision."

As soon as Hu Lan's words were finished, Deng Shengxing asked a little impatiently:

"Minister Hu, it's nothing for us to discuss, but I don't know where Director Xu is now?"

"This person is not even, and there is no way to really determine it."

After Hu Lan heard Deng Shengxing's words, she waved her hand indifferently.

"Director Xu Ji's words don't need to be considered."

"The release time of his film should not collide with you."

Hu Lan's words not only made Deng Shengxing a little confused, but several other people were also puzzled.

"Minister Hu, what do you mean by that?"

"Why doesn't Director Xu's film have to agree on a release time with us?"

Hu Lan explained directly at this time:

"If nothing else, Director Xu's movie should be released around June."

"It's the earliest of this tribute film, so don't worry about you bumping into his time."

After hearing Hu Lan's words, the expressions of everyone present were a little strange, especially Deng Shengxing.

He also said just now that Xu Ji's movie will be released in May and June.

Because I feel that in such a short period of time, it is completely foolish to want to complete the filming and production of the movie.

But I didn't expect to be really hit by him?

As the person in charge of this gift film project, Hu Lan's words can't be said casually.

And the conversation just now doesn't seem like a joke.

Apparently it has already been decided.

"Minister Hu, Director Xu is ...... now"

Zang Sheng asked tentatively.

Unexpectedly, Hu Lan replied directly:

"Oh, he's already back to Rongcheng."

"If the script is completed in the morning, I reviewed it and thought it was okay, so I asked him to go back and prepare for it, and then I should be able to start shooting."

......

After Hu Lan's words were finished, the scene fell into an eerie silence.

It was Deng Shengxing who was the first to react.

Something unbelievable was once again confirmed:

"You mean, Xu Ji's script has already been decided?"

"And it only took me a morning to write?"

Seeing Hu Lan nodding, Deng Shengxing was completely sluggish at this time.

Originally, when he heard Xu Ji say that he would finish the script in one day, he treated it with the mentality of watching jokes throughout the whole process.

As a result, Xu Ji is really?!

This gift film project was only confirmed this morning, and he completed the script within the same day, and then turned around and went home?

Who will believe it?

Is it really a gift film project that those Internet celebrities shoot short videos?

Even if the Internet celebrities shoot a video, the duration is a little longer, at least it will take a few days to write the script, right?

But these words came out of the mouth of Hu Lan, the person in charge of the gift film project.

Deng Shengxing obviously couldn't question anything.

......

At the same time, when it was close to six o'clock in the evening, Xu Ji's plane finally landed.

However, he did not go home as soon as possible, but went to get the cake he had ordered in advance.

He didn't tell Sha Yetong about his ability to come back today.

According to the normal understanding, I probably thought that Xu Ji would not be able to come back to celebrate her birthday today.

However, when Xu Ji opened the door and entered the house with the cake, he was stunned.

Because it seems that he is not alone at this time.

You Man, She Yue, Ji Yiyang and other people from Tongji Entertainment are all there.

imagined that the room was deserted, and the scene of Sha Yetong sitting there alone did not appear.

"Director Xu is back?"

The crowd dragged Xu Ji into the house.

Sha Yetong was also very surprised to see Xu Ji.

But because there were so many people, I didn't say much.

Then it's time for the normal birthday party.

Because it was Sha Yetong's birthday, everyone in the company just found an opportunity to toast her frantically.

Of course, Xu Ji next to him just watched silently, but he didn't worry too much.

After all, he knows the amount of alcohol Sha Yetong.

I haven't been very drunk since I was a child.

As expected, more than an hour passed, and Sha Yetong drank a piece of the house alone.

"No, no, no!"

Several people led by Ji Yiyang begged for mercy, but Xu Ji was so happy on the side.

......

After spending a lot of effort and sending away all the people who had drunk down, Xu Ji was relieved and sat down on the sofa.

"Are you alright?"

He glanced at Sha Yetong, who was flushed next to him.

Sha Yetong didn't answer, but directly turned over and pressed Xu Ji under him.

Then he stared at Xu Ji's eyes very seriously.

"You're not honest!"

"Come back quietly and don't tell me yet!"

Xu Ji replied a little helplessly: "Isn't this trying to surprise you?" ”

"!"

"You must be punished, you will have a long memory!"

Sha Yetong looked vicious.

It's just that in Xu Ji's opinion, there is no deterrent, but it is a little cute.

"And how do you want to punish it?"

Xu Ji asked with interest.

"Hmmm......"

"Wait until I think about ......"

Sha Yetong was indeed a little drunk, and his brain was not sober at this time.

But before she could think of it, she let out an exclamation.

said with a panicked face:

"Not this kind of punishment!"

"Let it go!"

"Xiao Xuzi, I warn you not to mess around."

However, her words could no longer reach Xu Ji's ears at this time, and she was directly carried into the bedroom by the other party.

......

The next day, Xu Ji woke up and began to clean up the messy house.

Sha Yetong continued to fall asleep, and Xu Ji didn't bother the other party.

After cleaning the house, I went out.

Because he was suddenly called to the capital by Hu Lan this time, and then took over the task of presenting the film, he didn't have to worry about what the next movie would make.

Of course, although it is a gift film, this does not mean that Xu Ji does not intend to take it seriously.

After all, "Operation Red Sea" is actually a good movie in addition to some attributes required for a tribute film.

Whether it is the plot or the action, it is a rare masterpiece in all aspects.

Hu Lan's side also gave Xu Ji a lot of autonomy.

Including the choice of the entire crew, to the decision of all the actors, etc., his choice will not be interfered with.

But it's a pity that because it's a tribute film after all, the investment share of the film will obviously not be released.

In other words, Tongji Entertainment has no way to join the investment.

The budget for the whole movie is actually not low, but Hu Lan still agreed directly.

In addition to the fact that there is no shortage of money, it can also be seen that the above attaches great importance to this project.

At present, what Xu Ji urgently needs to solve is actually the problem of actors.

Several of the main actors in "Operation Red Sea" are not very old, so the official actors are not very good choices.

】

Ji Yiyang and Ran Bai can use it, but Ran Bai has to continue to star in the second part of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", and Ji Yiyang Xu Ji is also hesitating to let the other party play the role of Yang Guo in "The Withered Heroes".

In short, Tongji Entertainment's current schedule of its own actors seems to be a little insufficient.

This is indeed a trade-off that Xu Ji himself has to make.

......

Chen Kang has been idle at home in the capital for a while.

After he finished acting in "My Leader, My Group", he didn't take over the play again.

Originally, when Song Ideal was casting "Bright Sword", he wanted to find him as the protagonist.

Chen Kang, who read the script, really likes this drama.

However, he knew clearly that the role of Li Yunlong was indeed a little unsuitable for him.

In the end, he reluctantly gave up.

He was afraid that he didn't act well and ruined the show.

However, he still recommended an official actor to Song Ideal very selflessly, called Jiang Yaorong.

As an official actor, it goes without saying that his acting skills are naturally speaking, and more importantly, his own image is more in line with the role of Li Yunlong.

It turned out that the guy was happy.

After Jiang Yaorong auditioned, he directly finalized it, and except for sending a message of thanks, he really didn't contact him again.

Before, I ran and begged him to play this role several times.

As a result, now that he found it more suitable, he dumped him directly.

That's okay, after all, people are recommended by themselves.

But don't ask him if he has any plans to think about playing other roles?!

But it's not Chen Kang's fault.

Since he began to cooperate with Xu Ji, his popularity has become higher and higher.

Now many dramas are looking for him, basically at least male number one or double male lead type dramas.

Everyone tacitly assumes that he will not appear in some supporting roles with few scenes.

This is the impact of coffee positions as the popularity of actors rises.

Many actors say that there is no filming, but they are not really picky.

It's really that many supporting roles won't look for them, and then some of the protagonist's plays, either the drama party doesn't look down on the actors, or the actors don't look down on the drama.

It's a very awkward situation.

Of course, Chen Kang is in a very good mood these days.

Because he received the news that Xu Ji received the official gift film project.

In other words, Xu Ji is estimated to make a new film next.

Thinking that Xu Ji's "Infernal Affairs" didn't invite him last time, he was a little angry.

This time, he naturally would not let go of such an opportunity, and simply took the initiative.

Then I didn't want to prepare to see Xu Ji.

As a result, he saw Duan Shengyu, but the other party told him that Xu Ji had returned to Rongcheng.

It's still a day-to-day return.

But although I didn't see Xu Ji, it wasn't in vain.

From Duan Shengyu, he asked for the script of Xu Ji's new movie "Operation Red Sea".

After reading it, I directly took out my mobile phone and bought a plane ticket to Chengdu.

Then in the afternoon of the same day, under Xu Ji's shocked expression, Chen Kang flashed directly to Tongji Entertainment, the door of Xu Ji's boss's office.

......

"Brother Kang, why are you here?"

Xu Ji was a little surprised when he saw Chen Kang.

Chen Kang had a look of resentment.

"Why did I come to Rongcheng, Director Xu, don't you know?"

Xu Ji hurriedly spoke:

"Don't talk nonsense, or it's not good for others to misunderstand!"

Chen Kang didn't bother to joke with Xu Ji, and he didn't beat around the bush, and said directly:

"I've read the script of your new movie, and I want to audition!"

"I missed Infernal Affairs last time, and I don't want to do it this time!"

Chen Kang had a determined expression on his face.

But at this time, Xu Ji was stunned when he heard his words.

"Didn't you hear what I sent you?"

Chen Kang was stunned for a moment.

"What news."

He took out his phone, and then remembered that he had subconsciously switched to airplane mode when he got on the plane.

Later, when I arrived in Rongcheng, I just wanted to see Xu Ji as soon as possible, so I took a taxi and came over.

It's not the first time he's come to Tongji Entertainment's studio, so he's naturally familiar with it.

At this time, when he heard Xu Ji's words, he subconsciously connected his mobile phone to the Internet, and then saw the news sent by Xu Ji not long after he boarded the plane from the capital.

There is also an electronic copy of the script.

"I was going to look for you."

"I didn't expect you to come by yourself."

"The two of us really have a good heart."

Xu Ji said.

Chen Kang has a black line on his face.

He came in such a hurry for a long time, in fact, Xu Ji had already decided to look for him.

Although it is said that I can come to try the play, it is not a trip in vain.

But when I was on the plane halfway, the anxious feeling of being afraid that someone would rob me of my role was indeed real.

Still worried about what to do if Xu Ji rejected him.

He himself was worried for a long time.
