I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

  Chapter 109 107. Gym Encounter

One o'clock.

   "Brother Li."

   "Hey, buddy, here we come!"

  The surname of the owner of the Northeast BBQ stall is Li, from Liaoyang.

   This is only learned after everyone is familiar with it.

At this moment, the boss who was grilling skewers saw Xu Xin, Jay Chou who was wearing a mask behind him, and Dani who was next to him. He responded and quickly picked up the last specially reserved table next to the trolley. , placed in the darkness behind the pavement where the light does not shine.

   Even setting up the table and taking the stool, and then asked:

   "Where are the siblings?"

  Xu Xin waved his hand:

   "I was too tired from filming, so I didn't come."

   "Okay, or the outer waist?"

   "Yes, roast three, and the chili is heavier."

   "Okay, sit down first, I'll be here soon."

  After ordering dishes, Jay Chou said:

   "Two cups, let's drink a cup of hum later."

   "It's done."

  The boss responded, and hurried to the tricycle to get the sheep treasure prepared in advance.

  Sitting in the dark, Jay Chou was visibly sluggish.

  Xu Xin took a bottle of red wine with an old-looking label from the bag.

   This wine belongs to Jay Chou.

   I don't know what brand it is...Xu Xin doesn't know either.

  Jay Chou likes to drink red wine, so he shared it... But every time he talked about the history of red wine, Xu Xin yawned.

   As time goes by, he will not have many BBs.

   Just drooped his head and yawned big.

   Originally sitting on a small stool, this drooping head made the whole person look more tired.

   Seeing this, Xu Xin shook his head:

   "Just drink some white wine and go back to sleep."

   "No, liquor hurts the throat."

   "...and beer?"

   "Well, let's mix it with beer and get drunk quickly, otherwise I won't be able to sleep."

   After finishing speaking, Xu Xin nodded:

   "Dani, bring two bottles of beer of different brands."

"OK."

  Dani got up and left, Xu Xin opened the red wine with the red wine knife specially prepared by Li Ge, and poured a full glass for Jay Chou.

   "Why is it so difficult..."

   Holding a wine glass, there was no one else on the street at the moment, Jay Chou took off his mask and touched Xu Xin with the glass.

  Xu Xin shook his head:

   "The big scene is like this, Director Zhang is not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?"

   "...But this will make me look useless~ It's been a week, this scene just couldn't be shot well..."

"There's no way, group dramas have very high requirements for everyone, and you're not a professional martial artist... and you don't need a double, what can you do? But isn't it getting faster and faster? If you are familiar with it, I guess that's it. A matter of a few days."

  Xu Xin continued to comfort him.

  Counting from the day when the night scene started to be filmed, the crew has been lighting up the night battle for more than ten days.

   And after the two group portrait scenes were filmed, they entered the battle of rebellion and change in the final ending of the crew.

   Three thousand people.

   Gold and silver mixed doubles play.

   Jay Chou's one-man show.

  In the past few days, he conservatively estimated that at least a thousand knives were cut off, and various positions, climbing, and dropping wires...

  Let's not talk about other people, even Xu Xin's eyebrows were raised when he saw it.

   In all fairness, he worked hard.

   But these scenes were shot very simply.

  Director Zhang... seems to have learned from the experience of heroes, he doesn't like to use special effects, but prefers to use real scenes.

   This caused the big scene to become very chaotic.

  Once the fight starts, the scheduling of the whole scene will be chaotic. The most important thing is that this scene is a scene where Jay Chou fights all over the scene.

  The actor is required to follow the position of the camera.

Because it is impossible to close-up anyone alone, and a large number of overhead shots are used, Jay Chou's positioning must be precise, and the surrounding group performances must also be precise in positioning, so that the audience can win in the melee of the gold and silver doubles. Know what Jay Chou is doing, what other people are doing...and reflect the tragedy of war.

Then…

   It means constant mistakes and reshoots.

  Can you say that Jay Chou is not working hard?

  Of course not.

  There is no need for a stand-in, all the battles are done in person, and all kinds of actions are done...It really has the taste of an ancient warrior.

   But the problem is that when the scenes of these people become chaotic, either one bumps into another, or he stepped on the wrong position when filming, or he couldn’t maintain his center of gravity when standing on a shield and a high platform lifted by manpower...

   Anyway, it's all kinds of problems.

   It got stuck for more than a week.

  I come here every day with a body that is about to fall apart, eat a few sheep treasures, and drink some wine before I can fall asleep.

  Don't ask Xu Xin why Zhou Ai suddenly likes to eat this food.

   It may be a man's habitual instinct.

  Tired, weak, backache, always looking for something to fill.

   "Xu Ke, cheers."

"Dry."

  Xu Xin didn't ask how expensive this bottle of red wine was or what it was for... Drinking at a night market stall, even if you bring a hundred and eighty thousand wine, isn't that what you get with it?

  Dani came back soon and took four bottles of beer.

not much.

  But two different brands of beer, from yeast to hops, with different degrees of beer paired with a bottle of red wine, is enough to be slightly drunk.

   "Speaking of... Mimi is going to wrap up, huh?"

   "It's coming soon, it's probably only two days."

   "Hey, when this movie is finished, when will you come to Wanwan to play? I also have a good friend who introduced you, and the relationship is super good."

   "What the hell...you have to wait until after 2008."

"Well…"

   Jay Chou was taken aback for a moment, then nodded:

   "Yes, indeed, this matter is more important."

   "Yes."

  Xu Xin nodded:

"Have an opening ceremony that will be remembered by the world, so that everyone can see our new side... This matter is not over, I guess it will be difficult for me to spare time...Of course, if you marry Patty, it will be another Say. You just need to stagger the day of the opening ceremony, and I will definitely be there. Okay?"

   "...hehe~"

  Hearing Xu Xin mention this, Jay Chou finally showed a relaxed smile:

   "That sounds interesting enough."

   "Then look~"

   While speaking, Xu Xin raised his cup.

   Jay Chou bumped into him again, and said with a smile:

   "Then if you and Mimi get married, shall I sing congratulations to you?"

   "If you dare to play "Happy Breakup", I will kill you."

   "Hahahaha, rely on the cup...how could I be like this. Hahaha~"

   "Hahaha~"

   Picking up a relaxing topic, the two chatted while drinking. After a while, the barbecue was served.

We had a glass of wine with Brother Li, who asked for an autograph and a group photo. When it was almost 2 o'clock, after finishing the four bottles of beer and one bottle of red wine, the two of them sat on the bus seat just in time to be slightly drunk. Ni drives a business car.

  …

   Early in the morning.

  After Yang Mi took Sun Ting to eat in the restaurant, before she could speak, Sun Ting asked:

   "Sister Mimi, what did you bring for Brother Xu?"

   "Bring more eggs, hasn't he started to gain muscle recently, did he buy the milk he bought yesterday?"

   "I bought it."

   "Well, that's all for now. Bring some fried broccoli, it's almost there."

"OK."

  Sun Ting got up and took the thermos box to choose a meal.

  Yang Mi dialed her boyfriend's number with her mobile phone:

   "Doo...Hello."

  Xu Xin's confused voice sounded.

  Recently, the time difference between the two is a bit out of sync. Because of Jay Chou's drama, Yang Mi has been resting here. In addition to the progress of catching up with "The Condor", one is energetic at night, and the other is busy during the day, so the time to meet each other is really only in the morning.

   But the meeting was also very hasty. My boyfriend woke up at 90:00 in the morning, and there was no food in the hotel right now. So she was the one who brought it up. Although it was colder, she would not be hungry anyway.

   "I'll bring it up for you, you remember to wear pants, did you hear me?"

"Um…"

   Before her boyfriend could say more, she took the initiative to hang up the phone.

   Soon, Sun Ting was carrying an insulated box, which was bought by Yang Mi herself.

   "Let's go."

  The two got up and went upstairs together.

  By the time she reached the door of Xu Xin's room, the girl had already taken out another room card.

   After swiping the card, she took the insulation box and walked in directly.

   The door is not closed.

  In the room, Xu Xin, who was wearing a pair of basketball shorts, was sleeping soundly wrapped in a quilt.

  After the girl put the thermos box on the table, she ignored Sun Ting who was standing at the door, and tiptoed to the bedside, supported her body on her arms, lowered her head and kissed her boyfriend on the cheek, whispering:

   "Baby, I'm leaving."

   After finishing speaking, I took a look at her boyfriend's faintly visible outline of abdominal muscles...

  My heart is sweet.

   Touched it fondly before getting up and walking outside.

  The thing about gaining muscle...she said it.

the reason is simple.

  After eating and drinking for supper that night, she "mixed" with her boyfriend for two consecutive meals.

   As a result, one night, she suddenly said:

   "Why are your abs gone?"

  One sentence dispelled Xu Xin's idea of ​​being lazy.

   Indeed, after coming to Hengdian, although he had a very detailed plan from Coach Yufei, no matter whether it was a conflict in love or filming time, he did not practice fitness so systematically.

  The abs that were just beginning to show up were a bit dull.

  So, after she said a word, Xu Xin started to eat reasonably again.

  Supper is to accompany friends to eat.

  But other aspects should be restricted.

  Training has to be picked up again.

  Although his fat removal speed was a bit slow due to this supper, at least the muscle contours began to appear again.

  The good sister who sees her boyfriend's efforts for herself and is gradually evolving towards carnal control has to wipe her boyfriend's oil every day, so she can feel at ease.

  Walking to the door, gently closing the door, the girl with a happy face bared her small white teeth at the assistant:

   "Let's go."

"Um."

  Sun Ting nodded and followed.

  As for the situation of the two of them...

  Although the first time Miss Mi Mi called her to Xu Xin's room, she was still a little uncomfortable...or surprised.

   But after getting used to it for a few days...

   Not to mention, these two are really sweet.

   As for the unspoken rules, Sun Ting no longer believes it.

   I just don't understand why there is such a mess between Zeng Jie and the other party.

   But she was smart enough not to ask.

   Instead, he made a very simple move.

   That is to keep silent.

   Sister Zeng asked, that is very good.

completely fine.

   Xu Xin and the like, absolutely never had contact with Sister Mimi.

   Moreover, she took the initiative to tell Yang Mi that Sister Zeng called her.

  What was the content of the chat, and how did I answer it.

  Although it is not possible to repeat the original words, at least the meaning is expressed.

  For example, "Sister Zeng asked Director Xu, but I don't go to the set with Sister Mimi every day, so I don't know very well."

  She knows very well that Miss Mimi can understand what she wants to express clearly.

  So, in the past few days, it is visible to the naked eye that Sister Mimi is getting closer to her.

   is becoming less and less shy about her.

  …

  Xu Xin woke up, and when he saw the insulated lunch box delivered at some time, he already understood... his girlfriend must have been here.

  He remembered that the other party reminded him to wear underpants...

  Others are almost forgotten.

   Didn't think much about it, after breakfast, he headed to the gym.

  Now the meetings of the creative team are adjusted to the afternoon according to Director Zhang's time difference.

   In the morning, he can freely control his time.

  Walking into the gym, he begins to warm up.

  Although the equipment here is not too much, except for the treadmill, there are only one set of equipment, but the advantage is that it is quite complete, and there are basic equipment.

  After warming up, he first stretched a five-kilometer according to his habit. After the five-kilometer stretch, he was covered in sweat.

   Turning his head, he planned to train his strength.

   And when I got off the treadmill, I realized... There are a few more people in the gym today.

   First, there is a girl next to her who is warming up, wearing a peaked cap and loose sportswear. The second is the people around the girls.

  Based on his intuition, he felt that the other party should be an artist.

  Because this battle was very similar to Jay Chou’s first day when he was charging carbon.

   Of course... that day.

   In the past few days, Xu Xin has fed him. According to Zhou Ai, it is:

   "Xu Ke, I've gained a lot of weight, and there's fat here~ If this continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to wear armor."

   As a result, he was still trying to lose weight in the film crew, so he took Xu Xin to a barbecue after work.

  Oh yes, as for why it is called Xu Ke Zhou Ai.

  Purely because of the emperor's famous saying "My ball protection is like Henry".

  Xu Xin said that he plays like Kobe, better than Kobe.

   is sometimes very iron.

   Jay Chou was not convinced, saying that his excellence was a perfect copy of Iverson...

   Likewise, sometimes butterflies drop **** through flowers.

  Then the two of them cherished each other and gave each other nicknames...

   All in all, this girl's battle is very similar to Jay Chou's that day.

   But Xu Xin just glanced at it and then looked away.

  First, people wear masks and peaked caps.

  Second, I have a girlfriend, why stare at other girls?

   Panting, he came to the power zone, grabbed the barbell, and he began to do basic training.

  After a few sets of barbell training, I started rowing again.

   As for rowing, the girl has finished her aerobic warm-up, and she is also working on equipment under the guidance of... supposedly a fitness instructor.

  Compared to Xu Xin practicing by himself, his side seems much more professional.

  One of the two female coaches helped her with the movements, and the other seemed to be a body coach, helping her shape.

  The battle looks really big.

  But the well water on both sides does not interfere with the river water.

until…

  Xu Xin started to sit and squat.

  According to Coach Yu Fei, he is not suitable for high-strength squats now, but needs to master the essentials first.

  So, when Xu Xin was learning to squat, Coach Yu Fei just put him on the bar, but didn't add any barbell plates to the bar.

  The main thing is to regulate his movements.

  Although he also did it in Brother Zhang's gym when he was in Shenmu, in the eyes of coach Yu Fei, a women's classical player, it is obvious that Xu Xin's various equipment movements are not standardized.

  Coach Yu Fei was helping him correct some habitual movements during the few classes of the two of them.

  Whether it is the diverging angle of the footsteps, or how to maintain the center of gravity of the body when exerting force.

  In fact, anyone who has taken a fitness class knows how different a correct action is from an incorrect posture.

  According to normal terms, people who want to exercise cannot break away from the guidance of the coach in the first year of fitness.

  When you can really train alone, you usually have to do all the movements correctly, well, and make standards under the guidance of the coach.

   Does Xu Xin understand this truth?

clear.

  But it is one thing to understand, and another to get started.

  Before the body forms muscle memory, it is common for the movement to be crooked, or the force point to be wrong, or subconsciously wrong.

  Adding that he is really self-willed...

   Otherwise, Coach Yufei would not have repeatedly mentioned "the posture must be correct" and "the risk of excessive training" in the training plan sent to him.

   Today, he chose to put on a 20-kilogram barbell for himself.

   It’s not for the sake of comparison.

  Purely, he felt that a bar alone could not satisfy the sour feeling of muscle explosion he wanted.

  A group of five.

   Three sets and one change.

  He plans to do 30 squats today to get a feel for his condition.

   As a result, just after finishing a set of movements, those people had already come to the big fly machine opposite the squat.

  Xu Xin was very polite and didn't go to see the house... and couldn't.

  Without the guidance of the coach, he turned his back to the opponent and faced the mirror to correct and maintain his movements.

   And just after finishing the second set of movements, Xu Xin, who always felt that something was wrong, took a breath, and felt two gazes.

  Looking in the mirror, I found that the girl in the peaked cap who was pulling a single big bird rope and using sideways pulldowns to exercise the coordination of the muscles of the whole body was talking to the coach next to her.

   The one who was still staring at me was the coach.

  The two were communicating, and then, the coach nodded...He walked towards Xu Xin directly.

   "Director Xu, may I guide you? Your movements are not right."

   "..."

  Hearing what the fitness coach said, Xu Xin was subconsciously stunned:

   "No?"

   "Yes, it's a little wrong for you to use your strength. If you continue to practice like this, you will hurt your waist. Let me correct it for you?"

"Well…"

  Xu Xin turned her head, and the sideways girl had already taken off her hat and the mask that half-covered her mouth.

  Liu Yifei?

"…Thanks."

  He thanked Liu Yifei politely.

   And Liu Yifei also nodded politely, put on the hat again, and continued to do the movements under the guidance of the shaping coach.

   "Then let's get started."

  Hearing what Xu Xin said, the female coach with a good figure nodded and stood behind him:

   "Come on, squat first..."

  …

   Not to mention, Xu Xin's feeling that something was wrong disappeared immediately after a professional person came to guide him.

Just like Coach Yufei, the other party first corrected his squatting posture, and then the problem of leaning forward when exerting strength... After a set, Xu Xin immediately found the soreness in his legs when Coach Yufei was instructing him. Familiar feeling.

   This smells right.

   After finishing several sets of squats, Xu Xin politely thanked:

   "Thank you, coach, for your hard work."

   "It's okay, it should be. But... I suggest that Director Xu, it would be better to find a professional coach for training. Do you need to contact one for you? It's a local one here."

  Xu Xin's eyes lit up, and he nodded:

   "Is that okay?...Thank you so much."

  The other party responded with a smile:

   "It's okay, let me contact you for you? ... What are the requirements? Age, gender, or professional level..."

   "Of course, the more professional the better, oh yes, male."

   "..."

  Hearing this, the other party looked at Xu Xin in surprise...then nodded:

   "Okay, I understand. Then... why don't you exchange contact information with Yifei?"

   "Yes, then, please remember, she is still training, so I won't bother you. Let's contact the coach when he finds her?"

   "No problem! Then...Does Director Xu want to do any more moves? Let me help you continue to guide?"

"Can…"

  …

   "Hello, Xu Xin."

   After finishing the morning training, Xu Xin took the initiative to walk up to Liu Yifei and extended his hand.

  Thanks to the other party, this morning's training made Xu Xin feel a long-lost comfort.

  The feeling of being completely vented is really enjoyable.

   Naturally, I want to thank you.

   When he came, Liu Yifei was still doing physical training under the guidance of the coach.

   It's just that she is wearing baggy clothes, so she can't see her figure.

  If there are fans here, they might be full of regrets.

   And he originally meant to say hello after the training was over, but Liu Yifei stopped the training and stood up after seeing him coming.

  Hearing Xu Xin's self-introduction, the girl had a fresh smile after exercising:

   "Hi, Director Xu."

   "No, if you don't mind, just call me by my name."

  Xu Xin shook his head, showing no airs.

  He has no prejudice against this girl, even, to put it mildly, when he usually hears the word "Liu Tianxian" from Yang Mi's mouth, he can hear the envy of his girlfriend.

   Envious of other people's opportunities.

   Envious of others' fame.

   Envious of other people's resources...

   Well, that's all.

  As for the others... Xu Xin guessed that the girl must have a sense of superiority in her heart.

  But no matter what, although it is the first time for the two to meet, from Yang Mi's mouth, he already knows some things about each other.

   Regardless of resources, godfather, or fame, at the very least, the other party's efforts cannot be faked.

  So, his politeness and thanks came from the heart.

   Upon hearing this, Liu Yifei also smiled and said:

   "Then just call me Yifei."

   "Leaving the "you" out, too, okay?"

"…all right."

  The hand that touched the point just now was lifted up again by the girl:

   "Hello, Xu Xin."

  She repeated Xu Xin's greeting.

  Xu Xin smiled slightly:

   "Hello, Yifei."

  …

   "Okay, you practice slowly, I'll leave here first. I'll leave the coaching to you, call Yang Mi another day, and let's have a meal together."

   "Well, good, bye."

"bye."

   After bidding farewell to Xu Xin, Liu Yifei did not continue to train, but looked at the coach.

  Of course the female coach understood the meaning of this look, and handed over her mobile phone.

   "Sister Xu, what did you say?"

   While lowering her head to memorize the phone number, Liu Yifei asked.

   "I told you to contact him when you found a coach, and asked him what he wanted. He said to find a male coach, the more professional the better. Nothing else."

   "Male coach?"

  Liu Yifei blinked with appreciation, then nodded and returned the phone to the coach.

  In fairness, the other party's mobile phone number is easy to remember.

  13 begins...the end number is 3666.

   With such a neat arrangement of numbers, although she couldn't talk about seeing her for the first time, she had to admit that the other party's number was easy to remember.

  Because the remaining two digits are also just one of these numbers.

   That is to say, there are actually only 3 numbers in this honey's boyfriend's phone number.

   That's 136.

   It is quite easy to remember, and it only needs to be remembered once.

  She estimated the value of this phone number in her heart...

   Is it estimated to be less than tens of thousands of dollars?

   After all, the Leopard is very popular now.

   Then after regaining consciousness, he handed the phone to the assistant.

   When she was about to follow the coach to do a set of movements again, suddenly, she said:

   "Don't tell my mother or godfather what happened today."

   "..."

   "..."

   "..."

   A group of people, no one said anything.

  But I also understand...in case someone slips up on this matter.

  So... the group of people here today counts as one.

estimate…

   Can’t stay here?

(This mobile phone number is now with a friend. I thought it would be easy to sell me, but the other party went back on it... I am very sorry. Then let me say that the tooth extraction next month is not a break, but it may be salty for a few days. I will tell you the details Ha, definitely not a break.)
