The director who came in was a short, thin man in his forties, with a delicate heather pipe in his hand and spitting out clouds. He wore a black and white plaid casual shirt, which is more popular and sassy, and a pair of coffee-colored suspenders, and covered his head with a priceless cap.

Any piece of clothing is trendy, but it is very awkward to wear on him, forming an extremely bad sense of mixing and matching.

But his fame is not small, especially in the field of film - Xie Guangsheng, a famous urban emotional drama director and a first-line celebrity in the industry!

Duan Xi was also a little surprised, because he didn't expect that Chen Ange's film company had just started, so he directly invited a director of this level, which shows that his ambition is not small.

But Duan Xi knew that the time when Mu Rou refused the unspoken rules and was semi-banned, the person concerned was this Xie Guangsheng!

So seeing Mu Rou's surprised little expression, Duan Xi was not surprised.

On the contrary, Xie Guangsheng was more surprised, and after being stunned for two seconds, the thin old face smiled so much that the chrysanthemums bloomed-

"It turns out that Mr. Ge said that the female star who joined our company is Miss Mu Rou."

"It seems that the film industry circle is really small," Chen Ange said, "It would be better if you knew each other, so that it would be easier to communicate more in the future." ”

"Don't worry, I will have a 'good communication' with Miss Mu."

Looking at Xie Guangsheng's aggressive and obscene expression, Mu Rou instinctively wanted to leave this place, just like she did two years ago. However, the arm was gently pressed by a large hand beside him.

Looking at Duan Xi's hand, she was inexplicably much more stable.

Chen Ange: "Director Xie, the reason why I fell in love with Miss Mu Rou at first sight is because the two scripts we chose "The Singer of the Ancient City" and "Thin Life and Red Face", the heroines are very suitable for her, what do you think?" ”

For Duan Xi, who is accustomed to seeing the colorful movie world in his previous life, what are these titles, and you can know what the subject matter is like when you think about it.

But considering the background of the current era, it is quite trendy and in line with the current market taste.

But Xie Guangsheng seemed to be deliberately pinching it and shook his head: "After two days of repeated thinking, I think that although these two books are not bad, it is difficult to make the box office explode." So, there is a new idea - let's be bolder, whether it is the plot or the scale of the protagonist's performance. I now have a book of "Flower Sea Flowing Warbler" on hand.,It's pretty good.。 ”

Chen Ange frowned, not understanding that Xie Guangsheng's thinking had changed again, not to mention that the film with too large scale was not liked by Chen Ange.

But she is a senior professional in the industry, and it is inconvenient for her to be the boss to deny it easily.

Duan Xi and Mu Rou knew that Xie Guangsheng was deliberately causing trouble, so that Mu Rou realized that she was not a stable candidate for the heroine.

As for how to become the final leading actress, you have to know in your heart, after all, the director has the absolute right to speak on the casting issue.

After this simple meeting, Chen Ange went to do her other things. The Millennium Group is a large company, and the film company is only one part of the business, and she can't put too much effort into the casting of a film.

Xie Guangsheng, who walked out of the conference room, became more and more proud: "Mu Rou, it's really a place where you don't meet in life." Two years ago, we failed to work together, and I don't know how it turned out this time. ”

Mu Rou bit her lower lip: "Mr. Ge said that he wouldn't force me to act in a script I didn't like." ”

Xie Guangsheng shrugged his shoulders: "Of course you have the right not to act, but I may not give you the role you want to play." The showbiz is the fairest, how much you give, how much you gain, isn't it. ”

This kind of almost straightforward shameless coercion made Mu Rou's little hands tremble.

But Xie Guangsheng didn't care, he had long been accustomed to this kind of thing. Especially in the face of this little pepper who once rejected him, he can't wait to take revenge at this time in order to compensate for his loss and frustration.

Just as he was beaming with pride, Duan Xi reached out and took off his cap, revealing the top of his bare Mediterranean head.

Xie Guangsheng was shocked and angry, as a first-line director, he has been mixed in high society all year round, and no one has ever been so rude and disrespectful.

He wanted to take back the hat, but he couldn't reach it on tiptoe, because Duan Xi was much taller than him. So the scene is a bit funny and awkward.

Duan Xi flicked his hat lightly, and slapped his head left and right twice with the hat, such a light and rude action, but Xie Guangsheng couldn't dodge it.

"My brain is so dirty, help Director Xie clean up." Duan Xi's hat covered his head, and the brim of his hat was torn down to cover his eyes, so he pulled Mu Rou and turned away.

Mu Rou was also poked by this funny scene.

"You wait!" Xie Guangsheng jumped angrily behind his back, "I, Xie Guangsheng, am dead, and I won't choose Mu Rou to play!" And you kid, what's your name, I'll you, don't go! ”

If he had seen the battle on Qianbao Street just now, maybe he wouldn't have been so arrogant, but unfortunately he didn't see it.

Duan Xi, who was already about to leave, stopped again, asked Mu Rou to wait in front, and walked back to Xie Guangsheng, pinched the other party's neck like a chicken, and picked it up directly!

Xie Guangsheng touched the ground with his toes, almost suffocating.

Duan Xi smiled: "Great director, why are you so rude when you speak, your mouth is dirty enough, and you also need to be purified." ”

As he spoke, he snatched the smoking pipe from Xie Guangsheng's hand and pressed it his lips, producing the effect of a soldering iron scalding the pigskin.

Xie Guangsheng screamed but struggled, and was finally thrown to the ground by Duan Xi, covering his mouth and curling up.

His mouth was so hot that he swore that he would never use a pipe again in his life, never.

As for this smiling but ruthless young man, Xie Guangsheng was afraid of him from the bottom of his heart.

In fact, Duan Xi's shot was not too heavy, and the damage formed might not be as ruthless as a stab from a street ruffian, but for some reason, Xie Guangsheng was faintly afraid of this guy.

Especially the kind of faint smile that this guy wears from beginning to end when he does it, it's just a devil.

But I'm afraid, when it comes to work, Lao Tzu must be inseparable from him and Mu Rou...... Xie Guangsheng thought through gritted teeth.

Heroine? I'm bah, as long as I, Xie Guangsheng, is in charge of filming at the millennium, you don't even want to play a trick!

In this era of the director's responsibility system, even investors like Chen Ange must fully respect the director's opinions, not to mention that his own cards in the industry are here? Xie Guangsheng has this self-confidence.

……

Mu Rou, who was waiting at the door of the building, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Duan Xi come out.

"Why do you think my luck is so bad, I actually met Xie Guangsheng, a big scumbag." Mu Rou sighed and said, "You may not know how many girl actors this person has bullied." ”

In fact, it was precisely because of this vice that Xie Guangsheng finally provoked an inoffensible existence a while ago, so he had to flee in a hurry and temporarily avoid the limelight in the circle.

Seeing that the rumors gradually died down for a while, Xie Guangsheng made a low-key comeback. It's just that the big companies in the industry don't want to get into trouble, so the fledgling Millennium Pictures was able to hire a first-line director like Xie Guangsheng.

Unexpectedly, he was encountered by Mu Rou again, and the road was really narrow.

Duan Xi: "It's just a villain, don't go to your heart." ”

Mu Rou nodded, but was still sullen. Although Duan Xi is here, she doesn't have to be afraid of Xie Guangsheng anymore, but it's not a way to hide all the time. She is here to work, but Xie Guangsheng has the power to let her work or not.

Duan Xi: "Without Zhang Butcher, I don't eat hairy pigs." Didn't you read the company's introduction, in fact, Mr. Ge hired two directors to walk on two legs. Look back at that one, maybe you can work with him. ”

"It's hard." Mu Rou shook her head, "It is said that he is just a young director, and he is not famous." Millennium Pictures has just started, and it will definitely give preference to directors like Xie Guangsheng. Because he not only represents experience and ability, but also the word 'Xie Guangsheng' itself represents a certain box office. ”

Sometimes a new director works hard, and it is not as successful as a famous director's signature. Xie Guangsheng's character is not very good, but he still has box office appeal.

"If you don't do things well, you will know that you will eat the dividends of fame, and you will not be able to eat it for a long time." Duan Xi said, "In order to suppress you, he is already ready to change the mature script, and he must be in a hurry to revise it in a hurry; On the contrary, if you come up with an excellent script and choose to cooperate with other directors, maybe the song will agree to shoot. ”

"You're not in the industry, you know how to run a train." Mu Rou couldn't help but laugh and said, "Do you know how difficult it is to have a good script?" That's what you can meet but not seek. ”

Although in this era, the director is in charge of the system, and the screenwriter is suppressed as much as a dog, but it is undeniable that a good screenwriter and a good script are too rare.

Especially in today's era when the light and shadow technology is so clumsy that you can't even see the picture quality clearly, even the director of God can't shoot the effect of blockbusters in the previous life.

On the contrary, plot is the king of today. To step on the ideology of the horse, to the artistic sense of the horse, as long as the story is good-looking, not afraid of the audience does not spend money.

Duan Xi clasped his hands behind his head and thought simply. I have to say that his current contemplative appearance is quite artistic.

"What do you want?"

"Hmm...... I have a friend ......" Duan Xi said, "He is a screenwriter who is very good at telling stories, and I asked him if he had a suitable book." ”

Mu Rou was a little unconvinced.

Moreover, the bandits outside the city were so noisy that the mail routes relying on the railway were cut off. People mailed you the script, but I don't know if you have to wait until the Year of the Monkey.

"Which screenwriter, do I know him?"

"You definitely don't know it, it's not famous, and people don't want to do it here, it's just writing for fun." Duan Xi said with a smile, "But if the script is taken out, there is a high probability that Mr. Ge will be satisfied." ”

"I have never even heard the name, so I dare to be so confident?"

"His surname is Zhou, and I call him Brother Fa in private. It's a good relationship with me.,I don't have to spend money to use his book.。 But don't tell Mr. Ge, I have to ask Mr. Ge for the script fee. ”

"That's a good idea, I'm about to believe your nonsense!" Mu Rou smiled and got on the bus. They want to go back to Lanyan Building to pack up their rituals, and prepare to move to Qianbao Street tomorrow, which is not only cheaper but also safer.

"You don't believe it, yes, I'll call Brother Fa when I get to Lanyan Tower."

"Uh-huh, okay, buy me some more oranges by the way."

"Okay......"

"Thank you, you're so nice."
