I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

Chapter 230: 228. The tip of the iceberg

Chapter 230 228. The tip of the iceberg

Aside from what kind of turmoil Zhang Jing felt when she heard these words, how should she not mention this director Xu Xin whose father can have dinner with the elders of Tiantian’s family...

Just talk about Xu Xin's side.

"Director Xu, here, here, I have reserved a seat for you!"

When Xu Xin had enough rest and bought a bottle of water in the cafeteria with a meal card that had not been used for a long time, he rushed into the classroom in time for the bell to ring, when he suddenly heard this sentence.

Then raised his head.

It's not that he's narcissistic, people call him "Director Xu" and they know he's talking about himself.

It's a matter of habit.

During the Olympic Games, the thousands of people under him also shouted "Xu Dao Xu Dao".

He's really used to it.

No one dared to call him Xiao Xu.

Even if he is younger.

Those who can call "Xiao Xu" are members of the core team, and the others call Xiao Xu...

Well, anyway, Xu Xin has never heard of it.

So, when he heard this address, he raised his head out of habit.

Then I saw two...familiar and unfamiliar faces.

Familiarity is because we have seen it.

Stranger is…

Who is here...

Who's inside...who's inside?

Or someone else...

However, he did not dare to delay.

After all, there are so many people in this big classroom looking at him... I'm afraid there will be another cheer and applause or something, and the location of these two people is really good, just at the edge of the middle row of the classroom.

Easy to go up and down.

So he just walked over.

But Bao Beier didn't know that when he saw Xu Xin walking this way, he felt excited, and quickly stood up to help push down the only empty folding stool next to him.

When he stood up, his waist was bent.

Because you have to press the stool board.

But that appearance seems a bit attentive.

Leaving aside what other people looked at, Bao Wenjing's eyes showed a ray of sadness and grievance...

At this time, Xu Xin also walked to the edge of the seat.

The first step also pressed the stool board, and then said politely:

"Thanks."

"Hey, you're welcome. Director Xu, long time no see."

"...haha, yes, long time no see."

Xu Xin still doesn't remember who this person is.

But I can only chat with you, otherwise it would be embarrassing...

However, at this moment...

He suddenly noticed the girl's arm next to this person.

This girl is wearing a long-sleeved dress today.

The sleeves of the two arms are not pure cotton, but tulle.

Very transparent.

It doesn't mean that the whole body is transparent, or that the two arms are exposed.

And Xu Xin easily saw a very conspicuous cigarette scar on the opponent's arm through the white tulle.

Just above the left arm.

Smoke scar?

The explanation for being able to enter the school must be an actor.

Actors have smoke scars? What's this stupid...huh?

"Kach~"

A shocking bolt of lightning struck Xu Xin's mind.

Actor, smoke scar...

The one who is "too stupid" in the mouth of the fiancée...then who is the youngest...

Bao... Bao Wenjing?

Is Bao Wenjing?

Then this man is...

In a daze, the image of Bao Wenjing's boyfriend at the premiere of "The Unspeakable Secret" overlapped with the image of the young man with short sleeves and short hair in front of him.

Her boyfriend seems to have the same surname, right?

Also surnamed Bao?

what do you say that is?

I couldn't remember it for a while, but he only needed to remember the last name.

He took the initiative to say hello to the two of them:

"What a coincidence, why are you here? We haven't seen each other for a long time since the last premiere."

Seeing that Xu Xin still remembered himself, Bao Beier's eyes flashed with joy, and he nodded with a smile:

"Yeah, Director Xu, long time no see. Today... I came to class with Wen Jing."

Although he didn't plan to let his girlfriend come with him before, but now it became an excuse to get close, Bao Beier continued:

"Both of us have done internships, but study is also very important. In addition, we are both preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination, so we still have to listen to these courses. And then I know that Director Xu is here too... Today is a big class, there are many people, so just I want to help Director Xu to reserve a seat in advance."

Saying this is tantamount to reporting yourself and telling people around you that "we are not sophomores".

So...

Where Xu Xin could see or couldn't see, many people around the three of them showed disdain on their faces.

Really snobby.

You can simply say that you are here for Xu Xin.

Still tucked away...

What a hypocrisy.

I don't know how many people have this thought.

It's just that what they don't know is that maybe in the next two or three years, a wave of regret will sprout in their hearts.

I knew it earlier... When I was in school, I also got to know Director Xu with shame.

Maybe it's another status quo?

Of course, these things are too much to think about. Regardless of what other people think now, Bao Beier knows that at least his goal has been achieved.

As for saving face?

Utilitarian or not...

We don't know each other, so what do I think about me?

After hearing this, Xu Xin seemed to smile a little more innocently after he had a clear grasp of the mind of this... person who forgot everything:

"Then I really have to thank you senior."

He remembered... Wen Jing's boyfriend seemed to be older than Yang Mi.

Then you are bigger than yourself.

Just call me senior.

It's just a title.

Upon hearing this address, Bao Beier quickly shook his head:

"Don't, don't, Director Xu, you're welcome, you should."

"Um…"

Xu Xin nodded and took out the textbook.

And Bao Beier is also very smart, enough is enough, and he is not talking.

Not in a hurry…

There is still dinner...

So, with the arrival of the teacher, this big class officially started.

…

A class ends normally.

"Director Xu, what class do you have in the afternoon? Last time Wen Jing and I were able to participate in such a big awards ceremony, I always wanted to thank you..."

"No."

Xu Xin smiled and shook his head:

"I still have something to do in the afternoon, so I probably won't be able to attend the two-day classes."

"Ah? That's... that's right, then... can I leave your contact information? When you are free, Wen Jing and I invite you to dinner. Wen Jing's senior year internship, the students are all over the place, Earlier, I said I would have dinner with Yang Mi."

"Well... that's fine. But I'm going to change my mobile phone number soon. During the Olympic Games, too many people knew this number. The phone numbers of various manufacturers, sales calls and so on... I'm planning to get a new card... like this , What is your phone number, I will save it, and I will send it to you when I change the card in the afternoon when I start sending group call notifications."

"Well…"

After Bao Beier was stunned for a moment, he laughed suddenly and became embarrassed.

But he didn't say anything, and started reporting his phone number.

Xu Xin did take out his mobile phone and pressed the dial button.

But after clicking it, it hangs up.

"Okay, I'll save it first and send it to you in the afternoon. Let's make an appointment when we have time. Let's go first."

After finishing speaking, Xu Xin nodded and walked out of the classroom with a book in hand.

Only Bao Beier's movement was heard from behind:

"Xu guides you to walk slowly."

"OK Bye Bye."

Turning around and waving his hands, Xu Xin walked out of the classroom.

"..."

Bao Beier glanced at Bao Wenjing...

His complexion is a little ugly.

But he didn't say anything, just said:

"Let's... let's go too."

"…Um."

Bao Wenjing responded, and then said in a low voice:

"Husband, it's okay, you will never be worse than him in the future, don't worry!"

"..."

Hearing this, Bao Beier didn't want to say anything anymore.

But Bao Wenjing's next sentence made him feel better:

"It's okay, it's a big deal...I'll call Yang Mi and beg her. As long as...you are sure that the two of you really have that kind of relationship. They are both classmates, and the relationship was pretty good before...I'll go and beg her, okay?"

"...Let's talk about it later."

"Well, let's go, let's go eat too, I'm hungry..."

The two walked out of the classroom arm in arm.

…

Inside the Audi.

Xu Xin had a bluetooth headset in his ear, and dialed Yang Mi's phone.

"Beep...dah."

The phone is connected.

But no one spoke, and Xu Xin only heard a knocking sound.

"…Hello?"

"Da da da."

"?? What's going on?"

Thinking that there was a problem with the call, Xu Xin took a look at the co-pilot's cell phone.

But the phone is kept open.

what's the situation?

"Hey, can you hear the voice?"

"Da da da da..."

"anyone there?"

"Da da da da..."

"..."

He hung up the phone directly, and then called again.

The result is still a rattling sound.

"Hello??"

He moved a little louder, and then Yang Mi's voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Oh, you're boring. You're so bad at your homework..."

"…What are you doing?"

Xu Xin was speechless:

"Why don't you talk?"

"I said so."

"What did you say?"

"Just... da da da da da..."

"What is this?"

Hearing the familiar knocking sound, Xu Xin became more and more puzzled.

Until Yang Mi said:

"Morse code, what do you think? I'm reading the script of "The Wind", and your calls made me play!"

"..."

In an instant, Xu Xin was completely speechless.

"Are you poisonous? There is no live demonstration of Morse code in the script. Why are you thinking about this?"

"No... just simulating this kind of mentality... Forget it, I'm telling you that I'm playing the piano with a cow. What's the matter with you, little Xu Zi. I think I, Miss Tang Tang, have a lot of time to deal with, and I'm busy here. What's your business? Tell me quickly. Did you get bullied at school? Make a list and wait. When I get back, I will punch you half a step away, and I will take care of everything!"

"..."

Don't you really say it, it's a bit unruly Miss Gu's.

It’s just a bit too “Beijing”.

"Okay, stop making trouble and talk about business. Do you know who I ran into in class just now?"

"who?"

"Bao Wenjing, and her boyfriend."

"Bao Beier?"

"...Oh yes yes yes, his name is Bao Beier."

Hearing Xu Xin's words, Yang Mi didn't need to change her mind, she just blinked her eyes and said:

"I'm looking for you specifically? Why? Self-recommended? Want a phone number? Treat you to dinner?"

"...tsk tsk."

Listening to Xu Xin's emotional voice, Yang Mi said with a smile:

"Am I right?"

"Yes, Yang Dacongming..."

After he said everything about the two of them, he sighed:

"Sigh... Bao Wenjing's smoke scar is quite obvious."

"Actually, it doesn't matter."

Yang Mi on the other end of the phone said indifferently:

"If you do well in the future, if you cut off the hyperplastic tissue and put a piece of skin over it, you won't be able to see it. If you don't do well... it's a testimony of love anyway. Or it's a stupid moment that you can't look back on...it doesn't matter. You didn't Give him a call?"

"No, but I plan to give it. But I don't need this mobile phone number... I plan to get another mobile phone. Now I plan to apply for a card. I will use a new mobile phone number for any work in the future. Otherwise, it will be too troublesome."

"It's long overdue."

"Yes...beep beep..."

Xu Xin was talking, when suddenly another voice came from the receiver.

He instinctively picked up the phone and took a look, then said to Yang Mi:

"President Qi called me, it should be about the movie."

"You pick it up, I'm hanging up. I don't have a show this afternoon, and it's rare to have a day off. If you have something to ask Tingting, I have to study Gu Xiaomeng."

"good."

Hung up Yang Mi's phone, he connected to Qi Lei:

"Hey, Mr. Qi, what's the matter?"

"Director Xu, where are you?"

"Where is the school, I just planned to go out and get a mobile phone card, what's the matter?"

"Of course I have something to ask Director Xu, but I can't tell whether it is a good thing or a bad thing. But it is definitely necessary to talk to Director Xu."

"...?"

Xu Xin was a little puzzled:

"Don't know if something is good or bad?"

"Yes, because this call has just reached me... Put down the phone and I will contact you immediately. Director Xu, Liang Bingning... Are you interested in meeting?"

"...?"

Xu Xin was taken aback:

"Liang Bingning?"

A figure of a woman wearing a fisherman's hat appeared in his mind, Xu Xin frowned, and parked the Audi that had just driven out of the campus by the side of the road.

"What's going on, tell me."

"Um…"

Qi Lei responded with a bit of embarrassment and confusion in his voice:

"Actually, I was also quite puzzled. Just now, she called me... At first I thought it was a liar. After repeated confirmation, it was indeed Liang Bingning. She should have called from someone from Huayi and Xiying Studio. The person I knew got my phone number, after I introduced myself, we chatted for a while, and then she asked me: I heard that our factory has a project in preparation recently?"

"... us?"

"Yes, we. Our factory..."

"..."

Xu Xin narrowed his eyes.

My brain began to spin rapidly.

"Then what?"

"I don't know who leaked the news, but it is true that she knows the news. She also said that she ran into you at the restaurant yesterday?"

"Well, we met. But there were other people at the time, so we exchanged pleasantries and drank a glass of wine."

"Yes, she said the same thing. Then she changed the subject and said that she really likes to watch Director Xu's films, but she hates that she is a little too old. If I can be five or six years younger, the high and low will be the same when casting roles. Yang Mi fights..."

"What's the tone like?"

The moment Xu Xin heard this, Xu Xin asked directly.

Qi Lei thought for a while and said:

"It's very relaxed, just kidding. Then I answered "I really want to cooperate with a director who can make films with such connotation and beauty", and asked me since "Secret" was released by Xiying Studio, I have a special impression of you Okay, it’s inconvenient for Fang to give her the contact information. I didn’t let go, I said that you are busy with the Paralympic Games, Director Xu, and I can’t make up my own mind. She didn’t force it, but said that if there is any opportunity, the two sides can cooperate. Then there are some polite words."

Qi Lei was recounting the situation at that time.

But neither he nor Xu Xin knew that this call was definitely not groundless.

Otherwise...Qi Lei would not call Xu Xin specifically to talk about this situation.

After hearing the complete description, Xu Xin thought for a while and said:

"I remember...she and Hua Yi terminated the contract?"

"Yes, at the end of last year. At the beginning of this year, she came out to do it alone... According to my understanding, she and Huayi just didn't get along. Didn't she have an affair with Wang Zhonglei before? But Zhou Xun went to Huayi, the front line The three monks have no water to drink. Li Bingbing has a solid foundation, and if Zhou Xun is so crowded, Hua Yi can only hold a bowl of water. So it is normal for her to come out... This woman is not simple, Director Xu, she has a big appetite."

"So you are eyeing our factory?"

"…ah?"

It can be heard that Qi Lei's voice was really full of surprises:

"What's the meaning?"

"Because I can't think of any other possibility."

Bringing a Bluetooth phone, Xu Xin stared at the busy traffic on the road, his eyes full of thoughts.

"Just think about it this way, "A World Without Thieves", our factory has produced people such as Taihe, Feng Xiaogang, and Zhang Guoli. Zhang Guoli also came out to do it alone, right? And she is also coming out to do it alone now... Huayi's Beijing The resources in the circle are big, and if there are enough internal resources, she will not come out. Since she has come out, she has to find a backer. People in the Beijing circle dare not pick her up, which is tantamount to provoking internal conflicts. So... get it?"

"Hiss..."

Following Xu Xin's words, Qi Lei, who had already lit his cigarette, also narrowed his eyes.

"Director Xu means... she wants to rely on us to continue to go up? Who is being stupid? Hua Yi gave her so much support, she left as soon as she said..."

"President Qi, we are not Huayi, we are Xiying Group."

"Well…"

Qi Lei was taken aback.

But Xu Xin said:

"What are you going to do with this news?"

"...I think she should be following "The Wind"."

"That's for sure. What else?"

"..."

Qi Lei was silent for a while, then asked:

"Director Xu, what do you mean?"

But who would have thought that upon hearing this, Xu Xin changed the subject:

"President Qi, you can't suppress this news."

"..."

"If she can find you, she will definitely be able to find someone else. Now, Mr. Qi, you only need to consider one question, and that's it."

"…What?"

"You want the credit, or give it to others. If you want it, you have to give me some time. I only think about one thing in the play "The Wind", and that is whether Yang Mi can handle her. If she can stand it, if she can step on it backwards, then she can step on Liang Bingning. But if she can't hold it, I won't give her a seat if Liang Bingning squeezes her head in this scene. So, I need to communicate with Yang Mi.

But if you don’t want to...but want to distribute it to others, as long as Mr. Qi can ensure that only the play "The Wind" will be released before the National Day next year, then push her to those who have trouble with the leadership. Find a way... press her to death. Then from now on, there will be one heart from top to bottom. In the same way, if you take the credit, Mr. Tian's position is as stable as Mount Tai, but the premise is...you have to hold her to death. How about it? Consider it? "

"..."

Qi Lei didn't say anything.

It was just for no reason, listening to the voice on the phone, a trace of coolness climbed up from the back of the spine.

What is Director Xu doing?

It's very simple.

Maximize the benefits.

Maximize the interests of "our own people".

Is there something wrong?

There must be nothing wrong with that.

only…

he thinks…

He seems to have seen a behemoth hidden under a gentle appearance, but actually eats people without spit out bones...
