Zhang Xueming was conceived at the end of August of the previous year, and according to the time, May and June this year are considered to be the waiting period.

Approximately, it was a month after Tomie's release.

Tomie completed post-production in early March.

As Lu Zhengyi, who has been among the great directors in the Tang Kingdom, his popularity also affects the efficiency of the review.

For example, in the past, it took him nearly a month to send the finished film to the Film and Television Bureau for review after the post-production was completed.

But now, in less than half a month, he has received the results of the review.

After all, as a big director, he is already familiar with the content that needs to be avoided in all aspects, and he prepares in advance, and the staff on the audit side can easily inspect it, so the efficiency will naturally improve.

However, the fact that the domestic review has passed quickly does not mean that the film will be released before April.

After all, there are still foreign channels.

Although in terms of the Southern Dynasties, this 'Tomie' has been hyped up, but it still takes some time to review.

In addition, there are some language and text translation work that needs to be prepared for the audience of various countries, which takes time.

After the first few old people in the family returned to the northern capital, they did not stay at home for long, so they returned to their old mansions.

They didn't want to disturb the life of Lu Zhengyi and their couple.

"So it was probably going to be late April or early May."

At the lunch table,

When Zhang Xueming once again proposed that she didn't have to accompany her all the time and could go to work, Lu Zhengyi responded helplessly, "And now the big guys in the crew have grown up, and they can do a good job at work, even if they leave me." ”

This sentence is not a joke, the crew has followed him for so many years.

In their work, they have all done a lot of hard work, and in this serious process, their work ability has grown rapidly.

Bai Wei, the assistant director, has been able to take charge on his own, and he can have a lot of storyboard ideas in the shooting.

Wei Kang, the leader of the photography team, sometimes doesn't need to give additional advice himself, he can arrange many shots from different angles properly.

How to design makeup that is more in line with the characters according to the script, Xiaowei, the leader of the makeup team, has always done a better job than herself......

No kidding, with the current situation in the crew, even without themselves, they can make a movie well.

It's just that if you have your own, the big guy can use some special employees and items to get a better shooting effect.

If they don't choose to make horror movies, find a movie in another genre, or simply make a TV series, with the ability of everyone in their team, they can leave themselves as a director, and they can still do their jobs and pay their salaries.

"I know this better than you know."

Zhang Xueming pulled the porridge in the bowl with a soup spoon, "In fact, there are several studios, and they have recruited them in private. ”

"Especially Wei Kang and Xiaowei, they have asked me in private chat before, although the matter of taking over private work is over in the end, but they have every chance to get more."

"In terms of Weikang, with his current reputation in the industry, the price of taking a single order to shoot a group of pictures is about 150,000 to 200,000, and Xiaowei, there was a top artist who offered an annual salary of one million plus dividends, and asked her to be the head of the modeling team in the past, your crew, it's not just you, the director, who is growing."

Because of the success of one movie after another, coupled with the fact that Lu Zhengyi never hesitated to mention the name of his team.

Every time there is any important publicity occasion, it is not in the name of the individual, but emphasizes the importance of the team, so the Meici cat team is now very famous in the circle.

may be for outsiders, when it comes to the plum civet crew, they will only think of Lu Zhengyi and his works, as well as some actors in front of the scene.

But for insiders, these behind-the-scenes members are also very famous.

For example, when hearing the personal names of 'Wei Kang', 'Xiaowei', and 'Ajie', some relevant staff in the circle can often tell their origins, and get 'Oh, Lu Zhengyi's chief photographer', 'The special stylist of the Mei Tanuki team', 'The props of the movie spell are in charge......

and so on.

But because Lu Zhengyi's salary is already the highest in the industry, and the relationship between them is good.

So even when they don't have a job, they didn't go out alone to take private work, because they were afraid that Lu Zhengyi would suddenly say that filming was going to start, and they wouldn't be able to take care of their work.

But their respective abilities have been recognized by the industry.

"Well, I haven't heard them mention it."

Lu Zhengyi said with emotion, "Unconsciously, it turns out that everyone has come so far. ”

"The grass team that was hastily formed at the beginning, hey, it was a few years ago, huh...... Eight years, right? ”

"From the old corpse in the mountain village to the current Fujiang, it has been eight years, and this year is the ninth year."

Time flies.

Two dramas a year, one filming, one release, and time passed all at once.

“…… Yes, when you do something you like, time always feels like it flies. ”

Zhang Xueming was stunned for a moment, and then, staring at the face in front of her that had never changed in a trance, she responded softly, "Making movies is something you like, and I don't want to delay your work because of my relationship." ”

"Is it possible, making movies is what I want to do, and accompanying you is also what I want to do now." Lu Zhengyi glanced at the porridge in her bowl, which had barely been touched, "I don't think that accompanying you is a thing that makes me stop, I am still walking forward." ”

"Don't have an appetite? Let's go out for a walk later, and let's buy whatever we want to eat on the way. ”

"By the way, let's go to the company to take a look, although the boss lady has taken leave, she has to inspect and inspect occasionally."

His voice was equally soft.

"It's okay, I'm ......"

Zhang Xueming shook her head, just about to say something.

"Go ahead."

Lu Zhengyi stood up and came to her side, gently rubbing her shoulder with his hand, "You go upstairs to change your clothes, I washed the dishes." ”

Zhang Xueming paused, nodded and stood up.

"What about you?"

Lu Zhengyi looked to the side, Ah Yong and Black Snake, who were eating silently, "Do you want to go together later?" ”

"Meow."

Yong took the time to look up from the bowl and shouted, apparently refusing to be the light bulb.

Next to him, the black snake also hissed.

He knew that Lu Zhengyi couldn't understand his words, so he shook his head again and expressed his meaning with his body.

From the realization to the present, the black snake has always been restraining his own behavior, and has not done anything out of the ordinary.

So now, he has gained a certain degree of freedom, and he no longer needs to be used as a cane all the time as before, and be carried by Lu Zhengyi by his side.

And upstairs,

Zhang Xueming came to the wardrobe and picked out the clothes to wear when she went out.

But picking left and right, every piece of clothing looks very bloated.

She glanced at the clothes she had worn before, and the emotions on her face suddenly became low.

casually took a few pieces of clothing from the pile of bloated and loose clothes, and Zhang Xueming went to the bathroom to change them.

She looked at herself in the mirror, and her expression was a little dazed.

The eyes are full of strangeness.

Lu Zhengyi is still the same as always, whether it is physical or personality, he is no different from when he knew him, he seems very reliable, and he faces everything calmly.

And what about yourself?

Whether it's personality or appearance, they are now two people.

"Nine Years ......"

She muttered.

……

"You look like you're tired."

After returning home in the evening, Lu Zhengyi jokingly said, "Do you need me to help you take a bath?" ”

"Go away!"

Zhang Xueming vetoed without hesitation, "You are not allowed to enter the house!" Wait until I'm done washing before you go upstairs! ”

“…… Good, good, good. ”

Lu Zhengyi sat down in the living room helplessly, "These are all old husbands and wives." ”

But after Zhang Xueming went upstairs, the smile on his face retracted a little and fell into thought.

"Eh, did you think she got that...... Prenatal depression? ”

He turned his head and looked at Ah Yong, who was watching the TV series on the sofa next to him.

"Meow?"

Yong was interrupted and turned his head blankly.

"Ang, we didn't go to the company." Lu Zhengyi nodded, "I walked around this afternoon, ate something, and originally planned to go over to see the light and shadow, but she said forget it and didn't disturb other people's work, so she didn't go." ”

At this point, he paused, "But that's not right...... It's not like she's done, and it's been more than a month since I've come back. ”

"In the past month, I haven't seen her go to the company once, and I haven't heard her mention it."

"It's obviously wrong, she doesn't seem to be in a good mood."

Yong shouted again, "Meow." ”

"Didn't she stay at home before she traveled to the Southern Dynasties?" Lu Zhengyi looked at the stairs with some concern, "That's really wrong, it's been so long." ”

"But in terms of her body, I accompanied her to have a prenatal checkup, and the doctor said that there is no problem with all the values, and the baby in her belly is also very healthy, so it should be in the mood."

"It seems that some people will be affected by the fetus in their bodies when they are waiting for labor, and there will be some changes in appetite and spirit, do you think that I, as a husband, should do something for her at this time?"

Ah Yong was stunned for a moment, and pointed at himself with his cat's paw, "Meow? ”

What, you ask me?

"Please, it's my first time here."

Lu Zhengyi looked at him helplessly, "Help with some ideas, buddy." ”

“…… Meow. ”

Ah Yong is also very helpless, he is just a cat!

"Shhhh

Next to him, the black snake also came over and said hoarsely.

Lu Zhengyi didn't understand, but Ah Yong acted as a translator.

"Gifts?"

Lu Zhengyi scratched his head, "It's a little late now, and it's ...... She didn't seem to like it very much. ”

"Hiss......"

Black Snake continued.

"Meow."

Ah Yong translated, but after translating, he glanced at the black snake with disgust and shouted again.

"Indeed, you've watched too many TV series." Lu Zhengyi also looked at the black snake in agreement, "Xue Ming is not the kind of character who likes to talk back, she didn't show interest, so she really didn't have any ideas." ”

Not all girls like to express themselves inconsistently.

Although Zhang Xueming sometimes, because of the scruples in her heart, she will say some words that do not conform to her heart.

But that's all so that he can work better, not because of her, so he gave up his hobby.

But in the matter of gifts, she expressed the idea that she was not interested, that is, she was not interested.

“……”

The black snake was disgusted by the two, flicked its tail, and ran away.

"Forget it, you two are unreliable."

Lu Zhengyi shook his head, "Alas, I can't count on it, it's better for me to think about it!" ”

"Ah Yong, you've watched so many TV series for nothing."

"You've been watching it for a long time, but you haven't learned!"

Shaking his head, he walked upstairs.

On the sofa, there was suddenly a Yong left there.

For a long time, he tilted his head, "Meow?!" ”

……

"This Director Lu, is he really not coming?"

“…… It's a bit of a change of character. ”

"This is the first time I've seen Director Lu at the premiere of the movie, and I didn't pay attention to it at the scene......"

Tomie's finalization and poster warm-up are already very routine processes, both for the crew and for light and shadow.

Even though the main venue of this movie is placed in the Southern Dynasty, it has the previous publicity, so in fact, there is not much change.

But this time, because of some previous things, no one from the crew went to the theater on the Southern Chaoguo side to do offline statistics, and the cooperation company between Light and Shadow and the Southern Chaoguo side was in charge.

Anyway, the domestic theaters are also released at the same time, and they all stay in China to participate in the premiere.

Among them, Bai Wei and Xu Feng, as well as Kyoko Kanda and Fumi Takahashi, are now here in the northern capital, so they plan to go to the premiere together for an unannounced visit.

However, as soon as they arrived at the scene, Bai Wei and the others confirmed that Lu Zhengyi did not plan to be with them.

"Did Director Lu follow up on the scene in person before?"

Takahashi Wen asked Bai Wei and the others in a fairly proficient Tang language.

"Besides, aren't there any offline events here?"

Kyoko Kanda also asked beside her.

After the two of them were banned by the Heguo entertainment circle and joined the Meici cat crew, they have now focused their work on the side of Tang Guo.

Although it is a New Year's holiday, I will also return to China to reunite with my family.

But most of the time, they stayed on the side of the Tang Kingdom, waiting for job opportunities.

The Tang language is naturally proficient enough, and both of them have made up for it.

"Of course, in addition to the filming of the film, Director Lu attaches the most importance to the audience's feedback."

Bai Wei explained, "It's not uncommon for him to let others do this work, he likes to see is believing, and see with his own eyes the audience's evaluation of our works, so every time a movie premieres, he will come to the scene." ”

"Of course, this time seems to be more special, but it can be understood, you don't know, Mr. Zhang, that is, Director Lu's wife is almost in labor, this is ...... It is also advisable to have more snacks. ”

"As for offline activities, because there have been some unpleasant things before, Director Lu canceled the roadshow, in order to prevent some people from maliciously making profits in the process."

Saying this, he was also a little emotional.

For the first time, this was the first time he saw Lu Zhengyi voluntarily give up the premiere.

However, with such a Director Lu, Bai Wei felt more cordial.

"Hey, hey, it seems to be ...... over there. Takahashi Fumi? ”

"Wait, is that Takahashi?"

"And the one next to him, isn't that deputy director Bai Wei? I've seen him at the premiere roadshow of Twin Hitomi before! ”
