Chapter 118 116. Social bullying

   It was less than 1:30 when we came out of Shinsegae Department Store.

  The two carried two bags each, only to discover an embarrassing thing.

  Ferrari's "rear" trunk does not fit.

  Out of the four big plastic bags, only three bags were put down.

  Put the fourth bag and the lid cannot be closed.

   Mainly, I bought a lot of things today, and a bunch of messy things really take up a lot of space.

   "Why so small. Not as big as my dad's Corolla."

   Xu Xin had no room to refute these words. He picked out the smallest plastic bag and put it in the space under the co-pilot's feet. He said:

   "Now you know why you don't like to drive it?"

   "I probably understand. It's not useful~"

   barely stuffed her feet, the girl sitting in the co-pilot felt a little aggrieved.

  But still urged:

   "Let's go, listen to cross talk."

"Um."

  In the underground garage, the powerful roar of Ferrari sounded again.

  …

   "Brother Xu, Sister Mi~ This way~"

   Seeing the biscuits sticking out of the small door, Xu Xin and Yang Mi had smiles on their faces:

   "Shaobing, do you miss us?"

   "Hey, sister, what are you and Brother Xu doing these days?"

  The three of them entered the passage of the small gate and walked to the backstage of the show, Shaobing asked.

   "Going to work, I'm so busy~ I won't be back until now~"

  Yang Mi explained.

   As a result, after walking a few steps, two young people came to meet their faces.

  One fat and one thin.

   After seeing Shaobing and Yang Mi and Xu Xin following behind, he was taken aback for a moment, and then stood politely by the side and did not leave.

  Xu Xin thought that there was something wrong with these two people, but he didn't expect that after the biscuits walked in, the two young people who were obviously a few years older than the biscuits shouted respectfully:

   "Brother."

   "?"

  Yang Mi first looked at the way the little biscuit was being held, and then nodded politely to the two of them.

   After the two sides passed each other and walked away, she squeezed Shaobing's face:

   "Okay, Xiaobing, are you a senior brother?"

   "Hey~"

  Shaobing smiled proudly:

   "He just came in this spring, a student of the Crane Character Department. He hasn't learned a teacher yet, so he shouldn't call it that, but I don't choose, I can take care of them."

"Ok, Ok."

  The girl looked relieved:

   "Our Xiaobing has grown up~"

   Xu Xin kept rolling his eyes while listening.

   Didn’t you also meet this kid after the New Year?

   It’s the same as how many years you’ve known someone.

   Then they walked to the backstage entrance, and the performance of the two actors had already started.

   But no one laughed for the time being.

   And there are three or four people standing at the back entrance.

   "Ahem."

   Shaobing coughed softly.

   Several people turned their heads and greeted respectfully:

   "Brother."

   "Hush."

  Shaobing raised a finger, meaning don't disturb the performance of the people on stage.

   Then he told the nearest person:

   "Go and get two chairs with backs."

  That looks really like a little grown-up.

   Soon, two chairs were brought over, Shaobing said to Yang Mi in a low voice:

   "Sister, look at it first, I'm going over there."

   "Okay, you don't live tonight?"

"without."

   "Then tell Teacher Li Jing, let's go eat~"

   "Alright~"

  The biscuits were not polite this time, so they happily agreed.

  The two of them sat down under the curious eyes of these Crane Science students. As soon as they sat down, the girl leaned into her boyfriend's ear:

   "I found out, these people are spying on me~"

   "..."

  Xu Xin turned his head naturally.

  Looking at these young people who were waiting for him to turn his head and look away, he nodded slightly:

"Um."

   Then he hugged his girlfriend's shoulders.

   "...hehe~"

  Yang Mi seemed to understand his style of swearing sovereignty. After laughing twice, she leaned on her boyfriend's shoulder and yawned lazily.

   "Ha~uh."

  I got up too early today, so I'm a little sleepy.

  Cross talk...

   Actually, I slept well.

  No... the two actors on the stage were talking...

  She doesn't know anything.

   Halfway through, I vaguely remember being woken up by applause and cheers a few times.

   But in a daze, she remembered that she was pillowed on her boyfriend's lap...

   Then, when she was awakened by the huge cheers, she subconsciously trembled, and after sitting up, she realized that there was another chair next to her.

  No one is sitting on this chair, it seems to be used for lying down.

   "..."

   Dazed for a moment, he glanced at Guo Degang and Yu Qiang on the stage...

   "How long have I been asleep?"

  Xu Xin glanced at the phone and said:

   "Over two hours."

"…so long?"

   "That's right. Seeing that you are sleeping hard, I asked Shaobing to add another chair for you."

"Well…"

  The girl stared straight at the stage again and yawned.

   Tilt your head towards your boyfriend:

   "I didn't sleep well. I have to go back to the dormitory tonight and get a good sleep."

   "OK~"

  Clinging to her boyfriend's shoulder, she put her hand on his boyfriend's leg in order to find something to put it on.

  The result immediately froze...

   Keep your head down.

  Under the afterglow of the stage, the two pieces of dark blue are particularly conspicuous on the blue jeans that her boyfriend is wearing today.

  She touched it in disbelief...

   It's damp...

"this…"

  As soon as she opened her mouth, Xu Xin said:

   "Oh, don't be afraid, it's not your saliva, it's me peeing my pants."

   "..."

  Girls are not afraid.

   just blushing...

   Lost adults today!

  …

  The cross talk between Guo Degang and Yu Qiang is still fun. As the finale performance, it is dedicated to all audiences in return far exceeding the 20 yuan ticket price.

  After the encore performance ended, Xu Xin and Yang Mi stood up and walked out of the Paradise through the small gate.

   After waiting at the gate of the station for a short time, Shaobing ran out:

   "Brother Xu, Sister Mi."

   "Hey, let's go."

  Yang Mi responded, and took him straight to Lao Jin to cook meat.

  Xu Xin discovered that Yanjing locals should have a special feeling for shabu-shabu. Eating shabu-shabu in winter is called tonic. Indeed, eating mutton in winter is to warm up the body in Guyang... But the reason for eating meat in summer is a bit weird.

  What do you say to sweat in summer...

   This reason seemed outrageous to Xu Xin.

   But he could tell that Yang Mi really liked eating this.

  Maybe I haven’t eaten for a long time, this time I have two more hand-cut dishes than last time.

   It's all eaten by the girl herself.

   Three people, more than a dozen plates of meat, plus six bottles of Arctic Ocean to satisfy their cravings, and they ate a meal for nearly 8 o'clock.

   After sending the biscuits back, the couple held hands and walked in the Dashilan pedestrian street.

  On summer nights, this street is very lively.

  Bought a cup of sour plum soup hand in hand to share, Yang Mi touched her belly and said:

   "I'll go back to school later, are you busy these days?"

"how?"

   "Let's buy some gifts, and I'll take you to see Teacher Yu? How about it?"

  When Xu Xin heard the name "Teacher Yu", the first thing Xu Xin thought of was Yu Zhen, and then Yu Qiang, but he immediately realized:

   "The sword master?"

"right."

   "...Are you really going to learn?"

   "Then can there be fakes?"

  Yang Mi tilted her head, suddenly let go of her boyfriend's hand, and took half a step towards the air in front of her:

   "Hi! Half-step Bengquan!"

   "..."

   Her voice was quite loud, and the people around her immediately looked over.

  Xu Xin's scalp felt a little numb.

   Didn't see it... Your old man is still a social cow?

  This...how embarrassing, how secondary!

  In his strange expression, the girl took her boyfriend's hand again:

   "How is it? Have you improved a lot?"

   "..."

   We don’t know if you are refined or not.

  You are thick-skinned.

   After he muttered something in his stomach, he asked:

   "Learning martial arts is hard, right?"

  He used to support it...but after the two confirmed their relationship, he really didn't want his girlfriend to suffer...

  I can't bear it myself.

  Why go to others to suffer?

   But Yang Mi is very firm:

"You have to learn it. Before leaving, Master Yu told me that Xingyiquan is not suitable for girls to practice. So he only taught me posture... Then he said that he can teach me a little bit of Baguazhang first. This. And if I really want to learn, you can take me to worship the master, hehe~ I have met a noble person."

  "Ba Gua Zhang?...Tai Chi Yin Yang Ba Gua Palm?"

"Hmm... Is the name so long? I don't know. Anyway, Teacher Yu said that girls are especially good-looking when they fight. It's like your... Butterflies wearing flowers~ Anyway, I will practice more, practice martial arts to strengthen my body, and I can still do it." Keep fit. I practiced these routines first, and then I dared to take on Kung Fu dramas. Anyway, practicing dance at school is also practicing, practicing martial arts is also practicing. I can also protect myself... If anyone dares to blow my hair with me in the future, I will be high !"

  As soon as she shook off her boyfriend's hand, in broad daylight, she punched another half step...

   In fact, the others are fine.

   Mainly she didn't know where she learned this move... Before punching, she had to call out the move. If you don’t shout or say you’re uncomfortable, you have to add a modal particle in front of it…

  Xu Xin immediately felt that he was dead.

   It's too embarrassing.

   "Hey young man, why are you walking so fast!"

  In the eyes of the people around, "such a beautiful girl, what a pity she is a fool", the girl saw her boyfriend walking forward without looking back, and immediately yelled.

  As soon as Xu Xin heard her address, he walked even faster.

  Sister, let me go.

   What a shame...

   "Young hero? Slow down, young hero~ Hey~~~ What are you running, young hero~ Don't run away, young hero! I am a good man!"

   Is this **** crazy!

  Xu Xin's face turned red.

  I just feel that people around me are looking at me like a mental illness.

   What a shame!

   Are you a good person? ...I don't think you are a nice person at all!

  …

   "Why are you shy, anyway, you don't know anyone on the street!"

   "Don't talk to me, my dad won't let me play with the retarded!"

   "Hey hey hey~ oh my good brother~ come and kiss me, I've been thinking about it for a day~ come and kiss~"

   It was easy to get back in the car, and I don’t know whether it was because I ate too much mutton and burned my brain or something, so the girls started to have fun.

  Xu Xin finally calmed down, and then sent it to school.

  Then the elder sister didn’t know whether she ate too much real or fake mutton or what was going on, so she suddenly said:

   "Hey, I slept with your ex-girlfriend~"

  Xu Xin was so bored with the brakes.

   Speechless:

   "Why are you bringing this up again?"

   "Hmph~"

  Who knew that the girl just turned her head proudly:

   "I just remind you, you are mine now, don't think about your ex-girlfriend, you know!"

   "I didn't even think about it~"

   "Uh... hey, do you like her more or me more?"

   "..."

   "Why don't you talk?"

   "..."

   "Why don't you talk?"

   "..."

   "If you don't talk, I will assume that you like me a lot~"

   "...you eat mutton really eat your brain?"

   "Hey hey~"

  This time, it's her turn to arouse her boyfriend's hand:

   "I'm just teasing you~ I'm just teasing you, do I really mind? I'm so beautiful, and I can still fight~ Where can I find a strange girl like me? Are you right, young man?"

  Xu Xinxin said whether you are pretty or not, and whether you can type it to see.

   But you specify is a little sick.

  …

   At 9:20 when the dormitory closed, a girl with slightly swollen lips appeared in front of the dormitory.

  Running upstairs all the way, with a happy mood, she pushed open the dormitory door:

   "Sisters! I'm gaining weight!"

   Yuan Shanshan is the only one in the dormitory.

  I’m sitting in front of the computer watching a movie.

   Hearing the movement, he turned his head and blinked immediately:

   "Mimi?"

   "..."

  Yang Mi was stunned for a moment, and then showed a bright smile:

   "Hey, Shanshan~ Did you miss me~"

  Yuan Shanshan stood up wearing a very loose pajamas:

   "You're done!"

  While speaking, she greeted Yang Mi and gave her a big hug.

   "That's right, it's over... Where are Sister Liu and Sister Wang?"

  She was talking about the other two juniors in the dormitory.

   "I don't know, I said I would go on a trip before May Day, but I haven't come back yet."

  Yuan Shanshan shook her head, then asked curiously:

   "Is the filming of "Sculpture of God" finished?"

   "No, I still have to go to Jiuzhaigou... I have to go to make up some shots in a few days."

   As Yang Mi said, she walked towards her bed next to the window, stepped on the bed with one foot, and unfolded the bed roll that she had folded before leaving.

   "Has anything changed in school these past few months?"

"without…"

  Yuan Shanshan shook her head first, but immediately remembered something.

   "By the way, Xu...Xu Xin seems to have dropped out of school."

  Yang Mi, who was still spreading the quilt, paused slightly, and then responded naturally:

   "Well, I know."

"…you know?"

  Yuan Shanshan was taken aback.

"right."

  Yang Mi said without raising her head:

   "He has some things to do over there. Director Yu gave him a suspension from school. I know about it."

   "..."

   Now, Yuan Shanshan, who had been watching him making the bed, seemed a little speechless.

  But at this moment, Yang Mi suddenly turned her head:

   "Why? Still like him?"

"of course not!"

  Yuan Shanshan instinctively denied it.

  Yang Mi seemed to have anticipated her reaction, nodded:

"Isn't that enough? It's all in the past, you have to look forward. Doesn't it have nothing to do with you if he keeps learning? Isn't it? Is it possible that you still want to reunite with him?... No, you two didn't know each other at first where?"

"…yes."

  For some reason, Yuan Shanshan always felt a little uncomfortable when she said this.

  But I also understand that what my roommate said is the truth.

  At that time, we were just in the stage of mutual affection.

but…

   Why is it a bit awkward.

  At this time, the girl who had already made the bed turned around and sat condescendingly on the head of the bed, "overlooking" Yuan Shanshan:

   "So, it doesn't matter if he suspends school or why he goes there?"

  After finishing speaking, she quietly changed the subject again:

   "Did you finish filming your commercial a while ago?"

  As soon as this was mentioned, Yuan Shanshan nodded, with a smile on her face:

   "Well, the filming is over. The director also asked me if I was interested in acting in a singer's MV. I agreed, but I didn't dare to ask which singer it was."

   "MV? Yes."

  The previous topic ended, which seemed to indicate something.

  The girl jumped down from the top bunk and took out her washbasin from the cabinet:

   "I'm going to wash up first, we'll talk later."

   "OK~"

  …

   At 10:00, Xu Xin backed the car into the garage with one hand, and got out of the car holding the phone in one hand.

   "Okay, I'll take a look now."

  On the other end of the phone, Liu Momo's voice sounded:

   "Then when shall we meet? Tomorrow?"

   "Tomorrow... we can only make an appointment until noon, at the Olympic Building at noon, come over here. I'll read the script tonight, and let's talk in detail tomorrow, how about it?"

   "Okay, then I'll call you at noon tomorrow."

"Um."

  After hanging up the phone, Xu Xin walked into the study room where there was still a fresh smell in the air.

  He didn't take the things he bought in the car, so he turned on the computer and logged into the mailbox.

  An email with an attachment is already sitting in the inbox.

  He downloaded it and unzipped it directly, looked at the four scripts above, and lit a cigarette on his own.

  Looks like I have to stay up all night again tonight.

   Shaking his head helplessly, he opened the first script.

  …

   Nothing to say all night.

  Before 9 o'clock in the morning, Xu Xin opened his reddish eyes.

  By the way, he unplugged the USB flash drive on the laptop, and walked out of the house with it.

  Drove all the way to the Olympic Building. When he went, thirty or forty people were already sitting in the large meeting room of the Olympic Building.

  Zhang Yimou hasn't come yet.

   Seeing this, Xu Xin went straight out again, came to the props room, and connected the USB flash drive to the computer.

  The printer started to work, and after a while, he divided a stack of A4 paper with handwriting all over it into four parts, stapled them together and put them in the bag.

   After returning to the meeting room again, he sat next to Wei Lanfang.

   "Ha~~uh."

  Hearing that he had repaid the debt, Wei Lanfang said in bewilderment:

   "Didn't sleep well last night?"

   "Stayed up all night and did something else."

  Xu Xin shook his head:

   "Where's Director Zhang?"

   "He hasn't come yet. Didn't you watch it? Director Fan and Director Wang weren't there either... They said they talked until three or four o'clock in the morning last night, so they probably haven't woken up yet."

   Really dedicated.

  Xu Xin said with emotion.

  After the words fell, Yu Zhen and Ma Wen all arrived.

   When Yu Zhen entered the door, she first went to Xu Xin.

  Seeing her student looking at her tiredly, Yu Zhen nodded slightly, found a seat and sat down.

  When Zhang Yimou came, it was already close to 10:30.

   Fan Yue started yawning non-stop as soon as he came in and sat on the chair.

   Obviously, I really didn't have a good rest last night.

   But no matter what, since the person is here, it is necessary to have a good meeting. In particular, the Olympic creative team has provided a lot of ideas here in Hengdian this month, and the people in the visual project team have presented them in the form of PPT+FLASH.

  They want to see the work results of the past month first.

  So the curtains were drawn and the light dimmed.

   One after another, whimsical ideas from the creative team began to appear on the screen.

   Read all of them first.

  After repeating it, the discussion sounded in the conference room.

  …

  1:00 noon.

  Xu Xin just walked out of the Olympic Building.

   "Didi."

  As soon as I left the compound, I saw a Volkswagen CC parked on the side of the road.

  He walked over directly, opened the co-pilot's door and sat down, and first said something to Liu Momo:

   "Sorry, Sister Mo, the meeting is only adjourned until now."

   "It's okay...what do you want to eat?"

   "Anything is fine, just find a place where you can talk."

"good."

  Liu Momo nodded, and drove Xu Xin to find a hotel.

  While walking, he said:

   "For "Wulin Biography", I will send a producer there at that time. I found it through headhunting, and I have a lot of experience in the industry. Don't worry."

"Um."

   After adjusting the chair back, Xu Xin asked:

   "How's it going over there?"

"The main building of the inn is about to be completed. The decorations and sets have not yet entered. I asked Director Shang about the progress, and he said that if it is soon, it will start in July. The slowest is no more than mid-August, and the filming can start. And the actor's The schedule has been adjusted... By the way, he even asked me to ask you about the role of Zhu Wushuang..."

"Yes, I know."

  Xu Xin nodded directly:

   "Let my classmate act. Gain experience~"

  Hearing this, Liu Momo didn't show any surprise on her face. Although she had never seen that girl before, after hearing it from Director Shang, she vaguely guessed that the relationship between the two should be unusual.

   This matter is actually very common at home and abroad.

  It is completely normal for the producer to want to support or love a certain actor, and arrange to play a role in his own play.

   So he responded directly:

   "Okay, then I'll talk to him then. That's it?"

  After talking about the rumors of martial arts, the two also saw a Shanxi restaurant.

"OK."

  Get out of the car and find that there are not many people in the restaurant.

  But to be on the safe side, Liu Momo still asked for a small private room, ordered two dishes, two bowls of sliced ​​noodles, and then went straight to the topic:

   "Have you finished reading these four scripts?"

"finish watching."

  Xu Xin took out the four scripts in English from his bag.

  Liu Momo has already completed the translation for him.

  Holding a teacup, she asked directly:

"how do you feel?"

  Xu Xin did not answer her directly, but asked a rhetorical question:

   "These four scripts of yours are all from abroad... If you really invested, does that mean you still have to go abroad?"

"Yes."

   "..."

   When Xu Xin was speechless, she nodded bluntly.

   "Uncle Liu...doesn't uncle want you to leave?"

"He wanted me to go back to China, and I came back. But it didn't stipulate that I couldn't run at both ends, right? When the script started shooting, I went to be the producer in person, and after the production was over, I came back. After I came back, I had something to do there. Isn’t it enough for a while? Isn’t the company in China? The foreign ones are just shells.”

   "..."

   Now Xu Xin really doesn't know what to say.

   smiled wryly:

   "Then Uncle Liu won't think that I'm "benefiting the enemy"?"

   "It's okay, don't be afraid."

   Now it's Liu Momo's turn to comfort him:

"I'm ahead of you... Besides, Uncle Zhang said a lot of good things about you to my dad, and my dad is really relieved of you. My mother also asked how old you are... If you weren't nine years younger than me, I It is estimated that they might want to match us up."

   "..."

  Xu Xin's face was a little green.

  And Liu Momo asked directly:

   "These four scripts, which one do you like best?"

"this."

  Xu Xin launched a script.

  The name of the script is "Once".

  And Liu Momo translated it as "Once Upon a Time".

  Seeing "Once Upon a Time" released by Xu Xin, Liu Momo's eyes lit up instantly:

"real?!"

   "...is it necessary to lie to you?"

  Xu Xin couldn't help laughing out loud:

   "Huh~ what? You like this too?"

"Well, John and I became friends through the script. I think the story is good, it's great. But... Vivendi rejected the script. So I stayed and planned to invest directly .”

  "Now that you have decided to invest, what else do you want to tell me?"

  Hearing this, Liu Momo was taken aback... Then he said helplessly:

   "You are the major shareholder!"

   "But the money is for you to spend."

  Xu Xin said amusedly:

   "I won't ask how to get the money, because I trust you."

   What he said was actually a bit false.

  Because in his heart, "relationship" is actually more important than money.

   But you can’t say “You can spend this money as you like, I made the investment because of the relationship introduced by Director Zhang”, right?

   That's really a bit low in EQ.

  So, while showing his 100% trust, without giving the other party any chance to think deeply, he pointed to the four scripts and said:

"I took a look, and none of the four scripts seems to have a big investment. The least is "Once" with a budget of 200,000 US dollars. The most is "The Man from London" with a budget of 1.7 million. U.S. dollars... Let me be honest, according to your method, if you want to shoot all four scripts, the budget may not be enough, right? And..."

  He tapped the script of "The Man from London" emphatically:

   "What do I think, how do I feel that the 1.7 million is just what I said..."

   "It's actually already filming."

   Liu Momo shook his head slightly:

"I came into contact with this script three years ago... This is my first script, so I have been paying attention to it. At present, its budget has reached six million euros, and the funder is only willing to give four million euros at most. , so I thought..."

   "...to invest all the fifteen million...that I gave you?"

   Xu Xin followed her words.

   Then just refuse without thinking about it:

   "I don't suggest you do this... It's not that I don't have money, nor does it mean that I don't like this script. It's just... Sister Mo, you have to remember that you are a businessman."

  Looking into the other person's eyes, Xu Xin said seriously:

   "And the businessman throwing all his eggs in one basket... would be stupid, and... I have a hunch this movie is going to fail."

   "..."

   It can be seen that Liu Momo is actually quite surprised.

   I didn't expect the opponent's conversation to change so quickly.

  But she was just surprised, and shook her head to refute what Xu Xin said later:

  “I think this is a very good script, so I have decided to invest. I think even if it can’t be a big hit at the box office, it will definitely gain a good reputation for the company and at least keep its capital!”

   "Is that so..."

   Seeing that she seemed to be very persistent, Xu Xin didn't say much, and asked directly:

   "How much to invest?"

   "One and a half million dollars."

   "...eleven million?"

"right."

"so…"

  Hearing this, Xu Xin nodded:

   "Then vote."

   "...?"

   Liu Momo was taken aback suddenly:

"…Gone?"

  She seemed to be extremely puzzled. After she said the words of insisting on investing, her financial backer was so easy to talk to.

   But Xu Xin had a look of reason:

   "Yes, didn't you promise it before? I won't make decisions for you. The company is your word, so if you want to vote... then vote. By the way, what is the name of our company?"

   "..."

   Liu Momo was speechless for a while.

  As a partner, she naturally has the obligation to explain the use of funds to the investor. So when I came here today, I had already made all the expected plans to persuade the other party.

  But I really didn't expect... The other party actually fulfilled the original promise firmly.

   This made her feel very surprised.

  This investor...

  Is it an angel?

  If you put this situation in France, it is estimated that a group of directors would come kneeling and call your father...

  You say you don’t care, but you really don’t care!

   There was a storm in her mind, but she still replied subconsciously:

   "Headwind Entertainment."

   "..."

  Xu Xin's mouth twitched...

  What's the name?

  Who took it?

   Headwind? ? ? ? ?

   It seems that after today’s update, you will be able to have the badge of “Daily Change 4D”~! It's the last day of the month, ask for a monthly ticket! !
