Chapter 151: Young man, I'm optimistic about you

Zhou Yan didn't know what "finding the ancient genealogy" was, and there were no reports on this in the mainland, and the information on Taiwan Island and Neon spread much faster, so Hou Xiaoxian saw the relevant news in advance.

Hearing Zhou Yan's doubts, Hou Xiaoxian smiled and said, "Neon has a TV station, and when it was broadcasting the news of your new album, the host joked that you found an ancient Chinese score to write so many good tunes." ”

Zhou Yan smiled, this TV reporter is really brain-opening.

Listening to Hou Xiaoxian's tone, the host was ridiculing, and Hou Xiaoxian definitely didn't believe it.

However, Zhou Yan smiled and said, "Yes, I just found the ancient score, and I still have a bunch of them in my hand, so I will find time to send them slowly in the future." ”

Hou Xiaoxian naturally knew that Zhou Yan was joking, so he said with a smile, "When I went back to a reporter to interview, you told people the same." ”

"I'm really ready to tell people, what a good publicity point."

Hou Xiaoxian nodded: "That's right, it's really very publicized, and now there are some TV stations on Taiwan Island that follow suit and talk about this matter, and they also say that it is very serious." ”

"The directors of these TV stations can't really believe it, right?"

"It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, it's mainly for the ratings, how to attract the audience to watch the news if you don't do some tricks these days." Hou Xiaoxian smiled and asked about Zhou Yan's new movie, "How is Ling's "Sixth Sense" ready?" Has the script been reviewed? ”

"That's it." Zhou Yan said with a smile that the second revision was very successful, and the review process went relatively smoothly.

"That's good, if I have time in the summer, I'll go to your crew to visit the class."

"Of course you are welcome." Zhou Yan nodded, and then asked Hou Xiaoxian, "Do you still need to modify the soundtrack of the public version of "Dream Life"?" ”

The later stage of "Dream Life" has already been completed, including the soundtrack, which is the easiest job that Zhou Yan has received, because most of the music used in the movie is sampled traditional opera, and many of them have been set by Hou Xiaoxian before.

When writing the script, Hou Xiaoxian had already set the opera to be used in each scene, but later when it came to the score, these samples were still checked by Zhou Yan.

There are not many of these samples to be modified, and they can't be played, so except for the song "If Love Has Providence", Zhou Yan didn't write a few paragraphs, and "If Love Has Providence" was also split into several paragraphs by him and put them in the movie.

After the soundtrack was finished last year, Hou Xiaoxian mentioned that when it was released in the later stage, the soundtrack might still need some adjustments, so Zhou Yan asked if he wanted to change it, he had to prepare in advance.

Hou Xiaoxian said with a smile, "Actually, there is nothing to modify, but when it was released, I wanted to put the song "If Love Has Providence" at the end of the film and make the ending song of the movie." ”

"Put the song at the end? Sister Amei's version? Zhou Yan asked.

He was a little puzzled, "Dream Life" is a dialect movie, and all of them are in Hokkien, if Anita Mui's "If Love Has Providence" is put in, it must be incongruous, do you want to record a Hokkien version or a Mandarin version?

But whether it is the Hokkien version or the Mandarin version, it is definitely not as good as using the pure music version to coordinate.

"Anita Mui's Cantonese version, it's definitely not okay to put it in, if I really want to do it, I want to record a Mandarin version."

Hearing Hou Xiaoxian say this, Zhou Yan was very surprised, Hou Xiaoxian wanted to add the ending song as if he was going to compromise with the market, was he afraid that no one would go into the cinema to watch the movie, so he wanted to use the ending song to attract the audience?

This is not like Hou Xiaoxian's style.

If Hou Xiaoxian could really compromise for the sake of the market, he would not have made so many "slow and flat" stuffy films.

In addition, Zhou Yan believes that even if the song is put on the end of the film, it will not attract a few audiences to the cinema, even if it is put on the Anita Mui version, and people don't go to the cinema to listen to music.

Before Zhou Yan asked, Hou Xiaoxian smiled again, "It's just an idea, and it doesn't have to be done, let's wait for next month...... By the way, will you go to Cannes with Chen Kaige and them next month? ”

Zhou Yan smiled, "I have a soundtrack on-site guide, what kind of fun are you going to join them in?" ”

In the middle of next month, this year's Cannes International Film Festival will be held, and "Farewell My Concubine" has been shortlisted, and Xu Feng and Chen Kaige will definitely participate.

This matter has nothing to do with Zhou Yan at all, and there is no soundtrack award at the Cannes Film Festival.

"It's okay, if you have time, you can come with me."

"Dream of Life" was also shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival, and Hou Xiaoxian will also pass by then.

"Come with you, I'm not still a soundtrack director." Zhou Yan laughed, "I wish you all won the grand prize in the past, and I can get some light anyway." ”

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you win an award or not, I mainly want to watch other movies."

Hou Xiaoxian's words, Zhou Yan definitely didn't believe it, Hou Xiaoxian's pursuit of the three major ones was no less energetic than Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou.

On the contrary, Zhou Yan himself has no special plot for the three major film festivals, so let him choose between the box office of the film and the film festival award, he will definitely choose the box office.

And the type of movie he made did not meet the three major standards, whether it was "The Piano Boy Who Wanted to Fly" or "The Sixth Sense", there was no way to win the award on the three majors.

"The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" was not sent to participate in the competition before, because it had to premiere at the film festival to participate in the three major ones, which greatly affected the release plan of the movie.

After chatting with Hou Xiaoxian for a few more words, Zhou Yan hung up the phone and continued to draw the storyboard of "The Sixth Sense".

After lunch, Zhou Yan asked Jiang Xia to send him to the crew's office, and today he made an appointment with Wang Xiaoshuai and Dong Wenmiao to talk about costume design in the crew's office.

When he arrived at the office, Zhou Yan found that Wang Xiaoshuai was sitting in front of the computer, his fingers flying, typing quickly.

Zhou Yan approached and found that Wang Xiaoshuai was writing a shooting plan.

The shooting plan has been written before, and Wang Xiaoshuai probably wants to enter the shooting plan into the computer for easy storage and transfer later.

Although Wang Xiaoshuai's fingers are fast, his typing speed is not fast, mainly because the efficiency value is a bit low, and the most he presses is the delete key.

Seeing Zhou Yan coming, Wang Xiaoshuai said with a little ostentatiousness, "Look at my rapid progress." ”

Zhou Yan also did not hesitate to praise, "It's really fast." ”

"I feel like I'll be able to have you sooner after a while."

"You're humble, just say it, I can't compare to you." Zhou Yan smiled, and then asked, "Is anyone else here besides you today?" ”

Wang Xiaoshuai nodded, "Yes, Li Hong is here, next door." ”

Li Hong is from Yanjing Studio, and he used to work as a field manager in "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly", and the young man is very discerning, and his professional knowledge is also quite solid, so this time Zhou Yan asked him to come over again.

Although there are still more than two months before the filming of the movie, the crew has to prepare in advance, so the crew will begin to gradually take place in the future.

Li Hong is in the Yanjing Studio, which is close, so he will come over to take a look if he has nothing to do.

"Just him?"

"He's the only one."

"Well, I'll take a look."

Zhou Yan went to the next office again, Li Hong was fiddling with the newly arrived computer in the office, and when he saw Zhou Yan coming, Li Hong greeted with a smile, "Director Zhou." ”

"Is there something wrong with this new computer?" Zhou Yan asked.

"No, I'm just researching them, and I usually like to study these machines."

Zhou Yan looked around the office, and then asked, "The factory hasn't been busy lately, has it?" ”

"I'm not busy, because I know that I'm about to join the group, so I won't be assigned for a long time, and now I can directly join the group."

This is thanks to Chen Zhigu, because Zhou Yan wants to shoot "The Sixth Sense", which is very generous.

Zhou Yan nodded, "In a few days, a few colleagues will come to Chang'an, you can help pick them up, and I will leave you the phone number over there in a while, and you can contact that side in advance in the next two days." ”

Li Hong replied very simply, "No problem, has their accommodation been arranged?" Do you want me to help them find a place to live? There seems to be no place for the guest house in front of our factory. ”

Zhou Yan smiled and waved his hand, "No, Jiang Xia has already arranged where they live, I'll let Jiang Xia connect with you in a while, and then you just need to pick them up and bring them here." ”

"Okay, I'll go find Sister Xia in a while."

When they rented an office before, Jiang Xia rented a place for the staff by the way, and Liu Qing and them could move in directly.

This time, there are a lot of people coming from Chang'an Studio, Zhao Fei, Liu Qing, Lin Juan, and Hong Xin...... Zhou Yan asked Jiang Xia to rent a lot of rooms, so that Zhao Fei and the others could live more spaciously.

Zhou Yan is not the kind of person who spends money lavishly, but he also doesn't engage in hard work, within the normal range, he still hopes that everyone can be comfortable.

Besides, you can't save much money on accommodation, so many people live for a few months, and the money spent may not be as much as the film wasted in a scene.

Some directors are reluctant to spend money on the lives of their staff, but they don't care about wasting film when filming, because in their opinion, the former is a waste, and the latter is a sacrifice for art.

Zhou Yan looked at Li Hong, and said with a smile, "I remember, you, like Xiaoshuai and the seniors, are all from the Yenching Film Academy, right?" ”

Li Hong nodded, "Well, I am from the 86 Photography Department, one year lower than Senior Brother Xiaoshuai." ”

"Oh, then you are Zhao Fei's direct junior brother."

"Yes, Senior Brother Zhao Fei has always been our learning object."

In fact, Li Hong and Zhao Fei are both in the photography department, Zhou Yan has long known about it, and the reason why he asked this is to lead to the next words.

"Li Hong, since you are from the photography department, have you ever thought about becoming a director or continuing to do photography?"

Li Hong's eyes lit up, "Director Zhou, I'm not afraid of your jokes, I think about these things every day, but there is no shortage of photographers and directors in our factory now." ”

Yenching Studios is under great competition pressure, and ordinary people can't get in, and those who are assigned to enter the director's office directly after graduation are lucky or have a good background.

Like Li Hong, there are many cases when he enters the factory and starts from the field notes.

Whether Li Hong can become a director in the future also depends on his own creation, if the development is good, he can still climb up step by step from the scene notes, and then become an assistant director and director, and slowly shoot his own films.

Seeing Li Hong's blazing eyes, Zhou Yan said with a smile, "In this way, if you are willing, you will be the assistant director in the future, mainly responsible for assisting me and Xiaoshuai, and after taking over the colleagues from the Chang'an factory, you will first communicate with them about the preparations for filming." ”

Assistant Director......

Li Hong was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted, and said excitedly, "Thank you Director Zhou for giving me the opportunity, I will definitely work hard and will not let you down." ”

Zhou Yan smiled and waved his hand, "It's not about who gives whom a chance, I let you be the assistant director because you have the ability and potential." The job of the director's assistant is not easy, and you can't be careless, and "The Sixth Sense" is not the same as "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly", although the script does not seem to be more complicated than the latter, but the difficulty of filming will increase a lot, and you will know it later when you see the storyboard. ”

"Director Zhou, don't worry, I will definitely cheer up."

"Okay, you're busy, I'm over."

"Director Zhou walks slowly."

When Zhou Yan walked out of their office, Li Hong couldn't help but clench his fists, his face was excited, if it weren't for Zhou Yan's office next to him, he would even have to look up to the sky and howl.

He has been a field reporter in Yanjing Factory for more than two years, and originally thought that as long as he could do his job conscientiously, he would definitely be able to rise to the ranks, become a director, and eventually shoot his own works.

But in the past two years, he has participated in several movies and TV series, all of which have served as scene managers or scene reporters, and there is no hope of rising at all.

This time Zhou Yan wanted to make a new movie, he came without saying a word, and he was also busy during this time, whether it was his own work or not, he was very attentive.

The reason why this is so is because he feels that if he wants to make his own movie, he may have to follow Zhou Yan behind.

Director Zhou himself is a young man, and he also likes to reuse young people, Senior Lu and Wang Xiaoshuai, the two senior brothers, have also been reused by Director Zhou.

Now that the emperor has lived up to his wishes, Zhou Yan finally raised his position up.

The scene manager and the director's assistant seem to be not far away, but in fact they are very different.

Although the assistant director is an assistant, he actually belongs to the director team, and this position is exactly the same as the scope of work of the assistant director.

This feeling of putting in the effort and finally getting rewarded made Li Hong very excited.

……

Zhou Yan knew that Li Hong was very excited, and he also understood Li Hong's excitement, in a place like Yanjing Studio, it was not easy to go up, even the second generation of directors like Chen Kaige made his first movie at the age of thirty-two.

Xia Gang developed very quickly in the later period, but when he first graduated, he went to the Municipal Engineering Bureau for a few years because he had no quota, and then he was transferred to Yanjing Studios.

Back in the director's office, Zhou Yan also told Wang Xiaoshuai about Li Hong's transfer to the director's assistant.

"In the future, Li Hong will be the assistant director, you watch and arrange tasks for him."

Wang Xiaoshuai was not surprised by Li Hong's promotion to assistant director, he smiled, "It's good, Li Hong is diligent and has a good brain, so letting him be an assistant director can save us a lot of things." ”

Wang Xiaoshuai himself is actually inferior to Li Hong in handling interpersonal relationships, so he knows that he needs Li Hong's complementarity.

"You can also take him well, and if you want to make a movie later, you don't have to bother finding an assistant director."

Hearing Zhou Yan say this, Wang Xiaoshuai was quite moved, although Zhou Yan has never explicitly said that he wants to make a movie for him, but he has been helping him with practical actions, and even the assistant director has helped him take this into account.

And what Zhou Yan said is also reasonable, if he wants to make a movie in the future, it is really not easy to find an assistant director, there are only a few people in the circle he knows, some are incapable, and some are impossible to be an assistant director for him.

Li Hong is indeed a good candidate, taking advantage of this filming of "The Sixth Sense" to cultivate well, Li Hong can help him a lot later.

"Director Zhou, thank you."

Zhou Yan said with a smile, "Don't be in a hurry to thank me, people still have to rely on you to cultivate more." ”

"Don't worry about this, even if I don't ask him to be my assistant director in the future, I will definitely not be stingy."

"I'm sure I'm not reassuring at this point, you're not a person who hides smuggling."

After a brief chat, Zhou Yan took a newspaper and sat on the sofa to read, while Wang Xiaoshuai was still busy entering the shooting plan into the computer.

About half an hour later, Dong Wenmiao came.

Seeing Dong Wenmiao, Zhou Yan's pupils shrank, and his eyelashes trembled.

In mid-April, the weather in Yanjing was still a little cool, Dong Wenmiao wore a pair of narrow-legged jeans, a black long-sleeved V-neck sweater, a light floral silk scarf tied around his neck, and a small brown leather bag.

Mr. Dong is worthy of being a costume designer, and every time the clothing is matched just right, and today Dong Wenmiao took off his glasses and put on makeup, which surprised Zhou Yan.

"Teacher Dong is here." Wang Xiaoshuai said hello with a smile on his face.

Dong Wenmiao nodded, "It's not too late." ”

"It's still early." Wang Xiaoshuai smiled and stood up, "I'll call Li Hong over." ”

After Wang Xiaoshuai left, Zhou Yan smiled, "The road is still smooth, right?" ”

"Okay." Dong Wenmiao nodded, "I came here by taxi." ”

"It's okay, I'll reimburse you, are the school busy these days?" Zhou Yan said as he walked to the tea table and poured water for Dong Wenmiao, "You sit." ”

"It's not busy, don't worry, it won't delay your movie." Dong Wenmiao walked to the edge of the sofa and sat down, and then took out a booklet from his satchel, "Here are some sketches I have drawn recently, you can take a look." ”

Zhou Yan handed the teacup to Dong Wenmiao with one hand, took the booklet from Dong Wenmiao's hand with the other hand, and immediately flipped through it.

After only a few pages, his eyes were full of surprise.

To be honest, Zhou Yan didn't think the costume design of "The Sixth Sense" was very important before, after all, it was a modern drama, and the costumes didn't need to be designed, as long as they could find similar clothes.

But in Dong Wenmiao's booklet, there is a sketch of a dress on every page, and it also marks which character to use in which scene.

This booklet is not big, it's the size of a palm, about twenty or thirty pages, and the clothes on each page are different, the male protagonist, the female protagonist, the little male protagonist's, and the little male protagonist's mother's.

These clothes are fashionable, but they are quite distinctive, not the same as modern popular clothes, Dong Wenmiao also designed a set of school uniforms for the little male protagonist and their school, not Western-style, but on the basis of the current popular school uniforms, some changes have been made.

Zhou Yan frowned, he felt that these clothes were very good, and they would definitely improve the movie picture, but the cost was ......

Seeing Zhou Yan frowning, Dong Wenmiao asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Nothing." Zhou Yan smiled and shook his head, "Teacher Dong, how long does it take to make these clothes?" ”

"Won't it be long before the movie reading will be held at the end of May? When the time comes, while the actors are here, the costume team will measure their measurements, and they will definitely be able to make them before the makeup is set. ”

"Well, that's fine."

"These are all sketches, if you have any comments, you can put them forward today, otherwise it will be more troublesome to revise them later."

Zhou Yan nodded, and looked at the sketches in his hand carefully.

After looking at it for a while, he walked up to Dong Wenmiao and sat down, pointed to one of the pictures and said, "Do you want to use purple for this male protagonist's clothes?" ”

The clothes are not painted, but they are colored.

Dong Wenmiao stretched out his head to look at it, then took out a bunch of color cards from his bag, pointed to one of them and said, "It's like this." ”

The color chart she was referring to was a slightly bluish lilac, not quite the same as normal purple.

"Well, that's a good color."

"And this?"

Dong Wenmiao pointed to one of the color cards again, "It's probably this color." ”

……

The two were next to each other and discussed the pamphlet for more than ten minutes, Zhou Yan looked up at the door, and said with some doubts, "Why can't this guy Xiaoshuai shout?" ”

Dong Wenmiao didn't care, and was still fiddling with the coloring card.

Zhou Yan shouted outside the door, "Wang Xiaoshuai, Li Hong." ”

Soon, the voices of the two came from next door.

"Hey, here we are."

In less than five seconds, two people walked over.

"Director Dong is here."

Li Hong said hello to Dong Wenmiao, and Dong Wenmiao nodded with a smile in response.

Wang Xiaoshuai explained to Zhou Yan, "There is something wrong with Li Hong's computer, and we were tinkering with it just now." ”

Zhou Yan rolled his eyes and didn't say anything, and pointed to the chair next to him, "Sit down, let's listen to Mr. Dong talk about the costume design, before shooting, we must have a number in our hearts, and the specific scenery in the back should also be coordinated with the costumes." ”

"Understood." The two nodded.

Then Dong Wenmiao began to tell them the concept of this costume design.

"This set of clothes, mainly to match the plot of the movie, although they are all fashion, but the details are also very important, the male protagonist ...... at the beginning"

When Wang Xiaoshuai and the others learned that Dong Wenmiao had designed more than 30 sets of clothes for the movie, they were also very surprised, Mr. Dong is too detailed, this is a fashion movie, not any ancient costume, and the clothes of each main character have to be made so meticulously.

According to Wang Xiaoshuai, in modern movies, clothes are almost used to it, and sometimes it is okay to directly use the actors' own clothes, which not only saves trouble, but also saves money.

Wang Xiaoshuai looked at Dong Wenmiao, and then at Zhou Yan, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he felt that Director Zhou and Teacher Dong were a little unclear.

Teacher Dong is almost the same to everyone, but when he looks at Zhou Yan, his eyes are different.

After Dong Wenmiao finished speaking, Zhou Yan said, "You two look at these sketches drawn by Mr. Dong, if you have any opinions, you can put them forward now." ”

Li Hong said with a smile, "If the costume design has reached this point, what else can be said, there is nothing to pick on." ”

Wang Xiaoshuai nodded, "I also think it's very good, but in this way, the workload of the clothing team will increase a lot, and the cost may also increase." ”

"Don't worry about this, the cost won't increase much, just add one or two more to the clothing group." Zhou Yan waved his hand.

Dong Wenmiao also smiled, "I will find a familiar tailor to help make it, the price will not be high, and the costume team does not need to add people, that is, the pre-production is troublesome, and when the post-production is filmed, the costume management will not cost much." ”

"Teacher Dong has taken it into account, then I have no problem." Wang Xiaoshuai said.

"If you're all right, I'll follow these sketches when I get back."

"No problem."

After chatting about business, several people chatted for a while, Dong Wenmiao looked at his watch and said, "There is still something to do, I'll go first." ”

"Why don't you have dinner together?"

"Next time, it's still early for dinner, by the way." Dong Wenmiao took out two cassette tapes and two CD albums from his backpack.

It is Zhou Yan's music albums "Piano Boy" and "Mystery Country", each of which is a cassette and a CD.

"I have two friends who like your music and ask me to help you sign it."

Zhou Yan smiled, "It's a small thing." ”

Then he found a marker, signed his name on each of the four albums, and after signing, he asked, "Do you want to write some greetings or something?" ”

Dong Wenmiao thought for a while and said, "Why don't you look at it and write something." ”

"No problem."

Zhou Yan wrote "Life is Like a Song" and "Graceful" on two CD albums, and after writing, he returned the album to Dong Wenmiao.

Dong Wenmiao took the album and smiled, "I'll go first." ”

……

After Dong Wenmiao left, Wang Xiaoshuai couldn't help but sigh, "Mr. Dong is really amazing, can some of the clothes here be made and sold in the clothing store, I feel that they are better than the clothes sold in the clothing store now." ”

Zhou Yan teased him, "When the clothes are made in the future, do you want to make a set for Xiaoxu." ”

He was talking about Wang Xiaoshuai's girlfriend Chen Xiaoxu, the first time Wang Xiaoshuai went to find Zhou Yan, Chen Xiaoxu also went, Zhou Yan also saw it, and later learned that it was Chen Xiaoxu.

I heard that the two almost broke up, but it was because Wang Xiaoshuai took over "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" that they didn't score.

Wang Xiaoshuai was a little moved by what Zhou Yan said, "Is this appropriate?" ”

"Go back and ask Mr. Dong."

"Hmm."

……

Zhou Yan stayed in the office until the evening, and then went to the Yanjing factory opposite to have dinner.

As soon as the aunt who was cooking saw Zhou Yan, she smiled and beckoned to him, "Xiao Zhou, Xiao Zhou, there is still braised pork." ”

As soon as Zhou Yan heard that there was still braised pork, he leaned over, and then his aunt gave Zhou Yan a big spoonful of braised pork.

When Zhou Yan sat opposite Chen Kaige with a plate, this guy's eyes widened, "What kind of ecstasy soup did you pour into Sister Xu, your spoonful of meat is more than twice as much as mine." ”

"You have nothing to boast about, don't you have meat to eat?"

Chen Kaige pursed his lips, "It's useful to praise people, but you still have to have your face." ”

Zhou Yan smiled, "There's no way, it's innate." ”

"Why did you come to the factory for dinner today? Is a new movie about to start? Chen Kaige said curiously.

"No, there is still a period of time, I made an appointment with Mr. Dong today to talk about clothing, so I came by the way."

Chen Kaige looked up, "What about Director Dong?" ”

"She went back beforehand."

"Oh, you don't leave anyone to eat."

"Didn't you say it, she has something to do, what are you busy with in the past two days, and you're going to Cannes to receive the award after a while, aren't you excited?"

Chen Kaige unconsciously smiled on his face, and then said with a straight face, "What kind of award, there are so many shortlisted movies, we may not have a chance, don't talk nonsense." ”

"It's rare for you to be so humble."

"Look at what you said, I've always been quite modest." Chen Kaige smiled, and suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "Do you have any holiday with Director Teng?" ”

Zhou Yan's face remained unchanged and asked, "Why did you say this suddenly?" ”

"That's how I feel."

Zhou Yan smiled, "You also have a sixth sense, don't think about it, Director Teng is an old-timer, I respect him very much, how can there be any festivals." You don't have to say this, Director Teng has come to your factory, and he will have to take care of you in the future, if he hears you talk about him behind your back, give you small shoes to wear. ”

"Tsk, you still said that there was no holiday, when did you say that to others? You don't mess with him, he's now the vice president of the Directors Guild. ”

The China Film Directors Association is an organization that was established just last year, and its members are all senior directors.

Now the first annual meeting of the Film Directors Guild has not yet been held, which means that the leadership body has not been decided, but Teng Wenji is regarded as the vice president, but he has not yet been officially appointed.

It's really hard to say how much power this film directors association has, but after all, they are an organization approved and registered by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and they are official.

Zhou Yan smiled, "He's from the Directors Guild, but I'm not, he can't control me." ”

"You didn't want to join the association?" Chen Kaige asked.

"I don't have that time, you know me, I'm usually very busy, how can I have so much time to add any associations."

"You're still not the same as we are." Chen Kaige said with emotion.

"Some time ago, someone from the Yanjing Writers' Association contacted me and invited me to join their Writers' Association, but I didn't reply."

Chen Kaige rolled his eyes: "So people are more popular than people, how can we have so many ways to go, we can only look at other people's faces every day." ”

Zhou Yan said with a smile, "You are moaning innocently, in the Yanjing Factory, Teng Wenji doesn't dare to offend you." ”

Chen Kaige, like Tian Baoqiang, grew up in the factory, Chen Kaige's father Chen Huaikai is a meritorious director in the factory, and Tian Baoqiang's father Tian Fang is the first director of the factory.

The two of them are in the factory, and naturally no one dares to offend.

Chen Kaige shook his head, "It's not as easy as you think." ”
