"Is there anything going on tonight, Mimi?

"It's okay, what's wrong?"

"Is there anyone taking care of you over there?"

"Yes, my dad, my sister-in-law, and my father-in-law and mother-in-law are all here."

"Okay, tell her that you'll be late tonight. I've made an appointment with a few writers to talk about this book. You come with me~"

Upon hearing this, Xu Xin's eyes suddenly lit up:

"Then Yu Hua..."

Zhang Yimou glared at him angrily:

"Do you think these writers are just Xue Lihong? They pick up a lot of them? Do you want them to come whenever they want?"

"Hey, I'm just asking. It's okay, I'll just wait."

Xu Xin laughed dryly.

And just when Zhang Yimou looked helpless,

"Then when Yu Hua comes, you have to tell me in advance. I have to dress nicer..." In other words, I am getting older.

To be ten years younger, he had to let Xu Xin see why the flowers were so red.

But...Xu Xin obviously hasn't always been so naughty:

"How are your arrangements for "The Thirteen Hairpins"? By the way, isn't "Three Guns" scheduled to be released on December 10th? Even if we are busy from next month... what will happen to your promotion period?"

"There's enough time. When the script comes out and the casting starts, I will use your name and the relationships with the people I've worked with before. First, look for it from places like Beijing Film Academy, China Theater Company, and Shanghai Theater Company.

If I can't find it, I will continue to sneak into the art school. I don't have to go in person, they just bring me a one-minute audition video for me to watch."

As he said this, Zhang Yimou seemed to be still uneasy and said:

"Remember, you asked me to help you."

"I see."

Xu Xin looked tacitly aware of it.

but

"That said, the popularity of this video is really big. What if it gets messed up?

Smash him in the mouth.

After hearing his words, Zhang Yimou also fell silent.

Because in the final analysis, I let Xiao Xu shoot this film.

Besides, the momentum is so big...,

What if, if it really breaks down?

He just wanted to say something.

Xu Xin scratched his head:

"But, logically speaking, there's no problem. When it comes to shooting love affairs... I'm a professional. I can handle even Jielun, so why are you afraid of other people?"

"Ah sneeze!"

A famous singer who was drinking tea suddenly sneezed.

He rubbed his nose.

The weather is getting a little cold.

After dinner in the evening, around 7 o'clock, Zhang Mo took two fixed cameras from somewhere and set them up in the living room.

Xu Xin asked in confusion:

"Sister Mo, this is..."

"Write down everything everyone talks about."

Zhang Mo said:

"I'll think about it slowly when I go back. Then I can make a behind-the-scenes creative record."

"oh oh."

Xu Xin nodded.

Director Zhang’s old tradition.

Since cooperating with Zhang Weiping, it seems to have become an old tradition of New Picture Pictures that every film must have a documentary.

And now this tradition has fallen to Zhang Mo.

He moved closer and looked at the table in focus.

I don’t know what Director Zhang meant or what Zhang Mo meant. The area where the camera shot was in the small hall near the garden on the first floor.…

This small hall is small, with a table and a few modern-style chairs that are somewhat out of tune with the surrounding environment.

From the camera, it looks like it was recorded in a three-bedroom apartment.

Xu Xin thought for a while and asked:

"Director Zhang will be here to receive guests later?"

"right."

"Well…"

Xu Xin didn't know what to say for a while.

Should I say careful?

Or the details?

He turned around and glanced at the living room of the villa, which would have appeared to be a very large room if it appeared on the camera. He felt that he had learned something again.

When Zhang Yimou came down from the study, he also knew today's guest.

Four people came today, and one of them, Xu Xin, was very familiar.

Chen Qigang is one of the composers of the song "Starry Sky" played by Lang Lang at the Olympic Games.

Everyone got to know each other very well during the Olympics.

Also as a member of the director's core team.

No need for much introduction.

But the remaining three people made Xu Xin feel the old man's connections.

Ge Fei, Liu Zhenyun, Yan Lianke.

Yan Lianke in "Shouhuo".

Ge Fei in "Jiangnan Trilogy".

Liu Zhenyun in "Chicken Feathers on the Ground".

"Have you read all the books of these three people?"

Hearing Zhang Yimou's words, Xu Xin nodded.

"Except for "Shouhuo" which I can't stand anymore, I've finished "Chicken Feathers", I've read "Mountains and Rivers in Dreams" and "Spring Ends Jiangnan" from the Jiangnan Trilogy, and I haven't read "Peach Blossom" yet. In fact, I've read it recently.

The progress is quite slow. On the one hand, I have my children and Yang Mi, and on the other hand, I am still writing my thesis. In addition, I am busy with movies, so I can’t watch much.”

"Not in a hurry."

Zhang Yimou seemed very satisfied with Xu Xin's answer and said:

You are still young, read the book slowly."

"Um.

"They will come over in a while, just listen and I will talk to them."

"OK."

So, after waiting for about half an hour, Xu Xin met these three outstanding contemporary writers who had won the Lu Xun Literature Award, Mao Dun Literature Award, and Lao She Literature Award.

In fact, to be honest, if Xu Xin were asked to rank his favorite among these three writers, the first one he likes most would be Ge Fei.

Because Ge Fei's reading always gives him a... leisurely and elegant temperament. It is different from Yu Hua who likes short sentences and simple vocabulary. The gorgeous, accurate and delicate structure between the lines of Ge Fei's books is very

Suitable for his taste.

And through reading, he can feel that the other party's writing habits should be similar to his own movie-making habits. They find a big framework from the heart, set the tone from beginning to end, and then organize each line in an orderly manner.

Expand it to select the best cohesive structure, grab it and put it in the book.

His books are very elegant to read.

As for the one with the most general impression, it is Liu Zhenyun.
