I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

  Chapter 47 047. Bodhisattva is merciful, saves suffering

  Night.

  There is still a bit of oil on her body, and her skin looks darker and darker. The strong coach Yu Fei walked to Xu Xin, who was panting like a cow on the equipment, while carrying the restraint belt that protects the waist and helps to exert strength:

   "Have you left yet?"

   "Hoo... Hoo... Hoo..."

   Raising his head, Xu Xin glanced at the person who came, and after realizing that it was his coach, he shook his head:

"without."

   "...It's a little too dangerous for you to practice so much."

   Looking at his soaked gray T-shirt and the crackling sweat stains on the floor mat, even she who was preparing for a bodybuilding competition recently felt a little startled:

   "It's been three hours since the end of the course...You can easily get injured if you practice like this."

   "...Well, I can't lift my arms anymore."

  He lowered his head and glanced at his palm, which had already been rubbed out with blood blisters... It was still wearing gloves. If he didn't wear gloves, God knows what it would be like.

   "What's bothering you?"

"…without."

   After all, the major is not the right one, and now Xu Xin is really tired.

   I am too lazy to say.

  Waved his hands, stood up on his sore legs, signaled that he didn't need the other party to help him, and said directly:

   "I'm going for a massage, coach, see you later."

   "...Well, remember to drink protein powder, and practice with a large amount of training, you must supplement protein in time."

"knew."

   "..."

  Looking at the student who usually looks amiable, but today seems to be a different person suddenly, Coach Yu Fei tilted her head in doubt.

   What happened here?

   You have to torture yourself like this.

  …

   Actually, she was right, Xu Xin just found it annoying.

  Because he couldn't find the main thread of the story in his heart.

  Every time I think of an entry point, but after going through this idea in my heart...

  Although the story is logical, the word "mediocre" is unavoidable in his heart.

  If "Not Drunk" is his farewell to his past, then this is in his mind, the movie he really wants to make. From the moment the idea was born, Xu Xin has essentially rejected mediocrity.

  He is the director.

   But not your average director.

   It's not about how famous he is or how high he started... He is very aware of his shortcomings.

  The reason why he feels that he is not an ordinary director is purely because...he feels that he does not want to compromise with mediocrity.

In fact, looking at the resumes of many filmmakers, what is the story that is most regarded as chicken soup for the soul... Ah, he was just an ordinary director at the beginning. When it comes to my noble person or opportunity, I suddenly soar into the sky.

   These chicken soups are full of "inspirational" orientation throughout.

  It is indeed inspirational.

  But the problem is...the foundation of these inspirations is forced by life, forced by the helplessness of making a living.

  But I don’t have to bow to life…

  Although it is very hated to say this, Xu Xin will not tell others.

   But in his heart, he thought so.

  He knows that his ability is not enough, and he needs to accumulate, learn and so on. But these shortcomings are no excuse for allowing himself to be mediocre.

  This request to reject mediocrity has nothing to do with other people, and is not next to anyone. It is purely the bottom line he set for himself.

  The movie I want to make can hit the box office, be scolded as garbage, or get poor grades.

   Anything goes.

  Others have the ability to eat big fish and meat, that is their ability.

  I can’t bear to eat cornbread, it’s because I’m worthless.

  But for Xu Xin, one of the most basic requirements is to satisfy himself first.

   It's like his current love life.

   Didn't meet a suitable person, he would rather hold back, wishing that the impact force would make a hole in the toilet every morning, and he didn't want to casually act like a woman he had never seen before, who could be a pig.

  Emotions are like this, so are requirements for my own works.

  My mother wanted to be an artist, this is what the old man said.

  Since this is the case, he can't infect his heart with mediocrity... It may be a dream that inherited his mother's behest.

  My things, I have to approve first.

   This will do.

   But now the difficulty is also here.

   If you can’t figure it out, it’s annoying.

  Fortunately, he doesn't write novels, otherwise a group of people behind him would kick their butts and chase after him, and it would be even worse...

   "Get a male technician. No female."

  Wearing shorts, Xu Xin, who was extremely exhausted, lay down on the massage table after giving an order.

   Feeling aggrieved for no reason.

  What the hell, I can’t think of a story, I can’t find an outlet for what’s in my head, it’s so uncomfortable that I’m going to die.

  I don’t have a girlfriend, and I’m so overwhelmed that I don’t even dare to find a female technician for a massage.

   What is this called!

bother!

  …

   The price of a willful time in the gym is considerable.

  At least when he came to class the next afternoon, he took a taxi and took a few steps slowly.

  No way, my legs are so weak.

   From the school gate to the teaching building, Xu Xin was struggling.

   And when he saw the steps of the teaching building, he became even more desperate.

  The more than twenty steps are like a moat, which makes him have the urge to sit down and not get up.

   And at this moment, he suddenly heard a girl's voice from behind:

   "Xu Xin, are you okay?"

  The voice is a bit familiar.

  Turn your head...

  Yuan Shanshan?

   Seeing the girl wearing a woolen coat, jeans, a pair of high-heeled shoes that shouldn't be seen in this cold spring, and a little makeup on her face, Xu Xin was taken aback.

   Then he shook his head:

"fine."

   The attitude is not cold, but not hot either.

   After giving the answer, he gritted his teeth and took a big step forward.

  Suddenly bent his knees to help his feet climb up the first step with great difficulty, and then something embarrassing happened.

  Can't get up...

   Or... so soft that it can't get up at all.

   It is really hard for people who don’t exercise or practice their legs to experience this sourness.

  It was a kind of discomfort that wished to let the lower body explode.

Then…

  Xu Xin clenched his teeth.

   After an inevitable "hum", the other leg stepped on the steps.

  But some of them couldn't stand firmly, and their bodies began to shake from their legs to their tops.

   "Hey, don't move."

   A soft and worried voice sounded.

   and his back were supported by a pair of hands.

   With a focus, Xu Xin finally stood firm, but he didn't move forward, but expressed a proper courtesy and gratitude to Yuan Shanshan who put his hands on his back:

   "Thanks, I worked out yesterday and practiced my legs, but I can't do my best."

   Facing the girl's worried eyes, Xu Xin waved his hand after explaining:

   "Leave me alone, it's almost time for class, let's go first. I'll take my time~"

   "Don't be brave, I'll help you go, come..."

"Need not."

  Xu Xin still shook his head:

   "I'll do it myself, don't push me if it's okay, I'll do it myself."

   "..."

  Hearing his words, the girl could only let go.

  But he didn't leave, just stayed by the side, watching Xu Xin walk forward step by step, step by step.

   There were more than 20 steps, and he walked abruptly for nearly three minutes before reaching the top.

  Yuan Shanshan, who was accompanied by silence the whole time, suddenly asked:

   "What's your class? Which floor?"

   "..."

  Xu Xin's mouth twitched...

   But only in the blink of an eye, he pointed to the large classroom on the left side of the teaching building:

   "Yingmei."

"Jingle Bell…"

   At this time, the bell for class also rang.

  He followed the bell and said:

   "You go in quickly."

   "..."

  The girl blinked, her eyes seemed to have something to say, but in the end nothing came out.

   just nodded:

   "Okay, then you should pay attention."

   "Well, thanks."

  Xu Xin nodded, and when she passed by him, he sniffed the scent of the perfume and waved to her like an ordinary classmate.

   Wave goodbye.

  Then... Hearing the stampede of the high heels disappear on the road leading to the second floor, Xu Xin bent down again.

   Hammered his legs twice, and started rubbing again.

  The twenty-odd steps are going to kill me...I really can't move at the moment.

   But at this moment, a pair of familiar sneakers appeared in his eyes as he bent down and lowered his head.

  The arm is also mixed:

   "Great love, you can show off."

   "...???"

  Looking at the girl who suddenly appeared supporting his arm, Xu Xin had a question mark on his face:

"Why are you here?"

  Yang Mi rolled her eyes:

"I've been here a long time ago. I saw you just now in the teacher's office on the first floor. Seeing your virtue of walking without bending your legs, I knew you must be going to the gym, so I wanted to come out to help You. Who would have thought... Good guy, Haoxuan disturbed you two."

   "..."

  Xu Xin was speechless at first, but immediately became amused:

   "Hey, hello, big girl... Ouch!"

  His calf was pushed, and he subconsciously wanted to lie down, but was held back by the girl, so he didn't fall down.

  But the instinct of the body has made him take another step forward.

   "Hiss~~~"

  The sourness strikes again.

  Yang Mi tilted her head, her eyes were innocent:

   "What did you say?"

   "...It's okay, sister."

   When it’s time to give in, he quickly gave in, and at the same time arched his body so that no one would see his embarrassment. He said:

   "Okay, let me go, I will go by myself."

   "Put it down, you're pretending to be like your ex-girlfriend, and I'm pretending to be a wolf with a big tail. You are in the history of world film class today, and you are on the third floor. Pretend I don't know?"

  The girl rolled her eyes:

   "Let's go, I'll help you. Seriously... you can burn high incense. If I didn't bump into you, you can climb to the third floor in this class. I will take your surname."

  "...Yang Bodhisattva, you are a Bodhisattva who saves suffering and suffering, is it alright?"

  Helped by her, Xu Xin walked forward with difficulty.

  As he walked, he asked:

   "What are you doing in the teacher's office?"

   "Ask for leave."

"…Ask for leave?"

  Xu Xin was taken aback.

  Yang Mi nodded:

   "Well, there is news about the audition years ago, and I will be joining the group next week."

   "...What drama?"

   ""The Legend of Condor Heroes", the version directed by Yu Min, I played Guo Xiang in it."

"Well…"

  Looking at the astonished Xu Xin, Yang Mi snorted a little proudly:

   "Hmph, so just be content. Next time you are in trouble, Bodhisattva Yang, who is merciful and compassionate, may not be able to save you in time."

   "...haha~"

  Xu Xin was happy when he heard this:

   "Bodhisattva is compassionate."

   "Ha~ let's go, you are going to be late."

"Um…"
