Chapter 771: With a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?
Liang Datong, the director of the production team, saw Liu Yifei leaving and didn't know what he was doing, but he thought he would be back soon. After all, the director had to work overtime for a late night shoot, and the logistics arrangement required instructions from the producer Liu Yifei.
But half an hour passed and Liu Yifei hadn't been seen back yet. This made Liang Datong couldn't help but walk to the director's team to ask about the teachers. When he learned that Liu Yifei had returned to the hotel with something to do, Liang Datong was a little surprised.
The production team is responsible for managing everything on the set, which is under the control of the producer.
Since the planning stage of "Star You", as the director of the production team, he has been following the orders of producer Liu Yifei. Liu Yifei's current weakness is that she lacks the ability to make long-term plans. Her advantage is that she can make quick adjustments once she gets the plan.
The state is to arrange things in detail.
Maybe it was this advantage, or maybe it was his status as the boss's wife, or maybe it was Liu Yifei's personality charm. After several months of working with superiors and subordinates, he, a man in his thirties, had a strong impression of Liu Yifei, a woman in her early twenties.
People have a sense of responsibility and do what they say.
As usual, with Liu Yifei's serious attitude towards the crew, even if she had to leave for something, she would make good arrangements for her work, but today she left without saying hello, which made Liang Datong a little surprised.
"It must be something important." Liang Datong only thought that there was something very important at the hotel, so Liu Yifei forgot to take care of it here.
He looked around the studio. Director Chu Xuan was concentrating on directing the film and it was not easy to disturb him.
He looked at the directing team. These teachers were like giant Buddhas, only focusing on creation and not caring about trivial matters.
He then picked up his cell phone and wanted to call Liu Yifei, but unexpectedly Liu Yifei's number came over.
"There will be one group each for site management, props, and makeup, and the others will leave first."
"I'll ask the hotel to wait and deliver late night snacks, and you can have someone go downstairs to pick them up."
"Mr. Liang, you can decide other matters by yourself. Those who are fine can go back to the hotel first."
At this time, Liu Yifei had arrived at the hotel. She hung up the phone, put her phone in her pocket, and walked into the lobby with a normal expression.
I was so angry that I temporarily forgot about my responsibilities as a producer.
Now that her anger had subsided, she took up her responsibilities in time and took care of the logistics for Chu Xuan's big night of filming.
All I can say is that as long as you are angry, your love is still very strong.
On the crew side, Liang Datong breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the instructions and hurriedly followed Liu Yifei's words.
Without Liu Yifei's instructions, as the director, he could actually arrange everything, but he didn't dare.
Although Chu Xuan is young, he is very authoritative in the internal ecological environment of Brilliant Era. He has worked in the group for several years and knows that Chu Xuan's ability cannot be judged by his age. Like many people, he is still a little afraid of Chu Xuan.
.
What's more, Chu Xuan, who has been on the set these days, is very serious. As a new director, our Mr. Chu has a strong aura. If Chu Xuan is not satisfied with the affairs he arranges, he is afraid of being held accountable.
Now that Liu Yifei has spoken, he seems to have a golden body, because he knows very well that Chu Xuan will never lose his temper with Liu Yifei no matter what.
Rather than dealing with Chu Xuan, who is usually gentle but rigorous and serious in his work, he prefers to hang out with Liu Yifei, who is gentle and kind to others.
This is also the working environment of the crew with the couple as the core. Director Liang Datong can see clearly which side is the black face and which side is the red face.
On the set, Chu Xuan, Lu Chuan and Huang Lei were directing and lecturing. Zhang Ruoyun, Li Xin, Song Qian, Zhu Yilong and several special extras gathered in a circle and listened carefully.
"I said before that your characters reflect the star-chasers of the current era, their seemingly normal but irrational star-chasing behavior, but the connotation is the relationship between star-chasers and their families, and their living conditions..."
In Chu Xuan's concept, every character in film and television dramas must have its own meaning.
Fan characters such as Song Qian and others show the sense of fan characters that exist in reality. Giving certain audiences a basic sense of involvement is the most basic existence value of such characters.
But the most basic existence value is not enough, because this value is incomplete and only reflects the state of star-chasing people, and then there is nothing more? Such a character is lacking.
The script is designed to follow a three-act framework structure. Under the three-act structure, minor supporting characters will also have complete character arcs.
["Are you still not sleeping at this late hour?"
"Oh, don't worry about it, go to bed."]
Chu Xuan said to Song Qian: "Here you have to be very impatient, to make the audience feel disgusted, and to chase stars to such an extent that you have such a bad attitude towards your mother. We have to reflect this phenomenon."
Chu Xuan said to the extra aunt: "Auntie, just behave as usual. At most, you can sigh more and show that you can't control your children. This will make a group of mother audiences across the country empathize."
Chu Xuan turned over the script and continued to tell the story.
["I'm going shopping, will you go?"
"go!"
"Hey? Did you transition today?"
"No way, it doesn't mean anything if the things on the Internet are true or false. It's more practical to spend more time with you."]
Chu Xuanchong said to Song Qian: "Here you need to be relaxed and freehand. Let the audience believe that you have changed. You are no longer a fanatical star chaser, but have become rational. In addition, you have a change in your friendly interaction with your mother."
, to convey the positive energy of rationally chasing stars.”
Chu Xuan said to the extras: "Auntie here, just show your relief and happiness."
Several actors and extras were thinking about the direction of the performance. Especially Song Qian and others learned a lot from Chu Xuan's lectures, and they also had a more understandable logical thinking about Chu Xuan's three-act theory.
Just like the character arc design of their characters, they first show the star-chasing side, then the impatient living conditions with their families, and finally end up transforming into rational star-chasers and living in harmony with their families. The character's growth ideas are very clear.
No matter which one of these three stages it is, it will trigger corresponding resonance in society, so that their characters have meaning from beginning to end, and their emotional value is very complete.
The three-act style emphasizes completeness. Under the subtle influence of Chu Xuan's philosophy, the way of thinking of these new generation actors in understanding characters and performances is gradually taking shape, gradually forming an artistic concept called the three-act style.
"Where is Qianqian?" Chu Xuan returned to the director's team to prepare to start shooting, but he didn't see Liu Yifei, so he asked.
"Your mother-in-law has something to call her. She has returned to the hotel. Let us tell you." Tang Jili replied.
Is there something wrong with the mother-in-law? About the wedding room?...Chu Xuan frowned. Regardless of whether it was this matter or not, Liu Yifei should have said hello to her before leaving.
Chu Xuan took out his cell phone and was about to make a call to ask about the situation. When the screen came on, a text message from half an hour ago made him smile bitterly - [Brother, sister is angry. Remember to comfort her when you come back.]
Even without this text message from Gu Lina, when he saw that Liu Yifei was not on the directing team, he already had a hunch that Liu Yifei might be angry.
In fact, when he and Lu Chuan decided to shoot Big Night, he was a little afraid to face Liu Yifei.
Yesterday, Liu Yifei promised Liu Yifei to have a good rest in the next few days. Liu Yifei also said in the morning that she should not focus on her career and think about her family. How could he forget what happened just now?
It's just that the filming of the scene did not go smoothly today. The actor shot it all night long in one go while the scene was also there. Any director would do this if he wanted to, so as not to delay the filming process and incur manpower and material resources.
There is also a waste of financial resources.
Although things happened for a reason, after all, he broke his promise and slapped himself in the face, so he chose to stay away from Liu Yifei temporarily and went to the set to talk about the drama immersedly. He just hoped to use time to kill the embarrassment, and also hoped that Liu Yifei could
understand.
But now it seems that he is just wishful thinking and his wife seems to be angry.
Chu Xuan dialed Liu Yifei's phone: [Sorry, the number you dialed is not available yet, please call again later...]
The phone rang for forty or fifty seconds before there was an electronic response. It was obvious that Liu Yifei had deliberately not answered the call.
"Damn it, I'm really angry." Chu Xuan smiled helplessly.
But he was also unhappy. Is it necessary to be angry about something like this? As a producer, can't you understand it in order for the crew to keep up with the filming schedule?
Although he made the mistake first, he couldn't quite understand Liu Yifei's behavior of getting really angry and running away, and he couldn't figure out Liu Yifei's thoughts and ideas.
He called the phone a second time, but still got no answer.
Chu Xuan also lost his temper. He answered the phone and had a good talk. He was ready to admit his mistake and apologize, but what did it mean if he didn't answer the phone?
He stopped making phone calls, put away his cell phone, picked up the walkie-talkie and prepared to direct the scene, whatever he wanted, he would talk about it after the scene was filmed.
…
In the bedroom of the hotel room, Liu Yifei took a shower and leaned on the bedside. She looked at the mobile phone in her hand with her eyebrows lowered in confusion. The screen of the mobile phone showed two missed calls from Chu Xuan.
Her mood now is very complicated and tangled.
In the morning, out of concern for Chu Xuan, she asked Chu Xuan to finish work on time and have a good rest. Chu Xuan agreed well. Out of the concept of putting family first after marriage, she hoped that Chu Xuan would not focus on his career. Chu Xuan also followed her and agreed.
, making her full of happiness.
I was happy all day long, but I didn't know something like this happened at night.
On the one hand, it was Chu Xuan's promise, and on the other hand, Chu Xuan wanted to shoot Big Night for the filming progress of the crew.
If Chu Xuan is allowed to keep his promise, the crew's filming schedule will be delayed.
If she supports Chu Xuan in filming Big Night, then Chu Xuan's promise to her will become a joke.
But she came up with the idea of getting the best of both worlds. Can't you get up early tomorrow and catch up on the shots? If tomorrow isn't enough, there's still the day after tomorrow. Anyway, the space in the office building has been rented for several days, and it doesn't mean that after shooting today, it will be vacated tomorrow.
But Chu Xuan disagreed and thought it was troublesome.
"Then this is Chu Xuan's fault!" Liu Yifei threw the phone aside, folded her hands, and thought so with a stubborn look.
This is the difference between men and women. In terms of career, men like to save trouble and can do something quickly and never postpone it until the next day; but in life, men can postpone family affairs until the next day and never postpone it until the next day.
Finished it on the first day.
Women are just the opposite. They are orderly in life, but like a slower pace in career.
Although this situation is not absolute, many men and women in society follow this theorem.
This is also a change after Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei's argument. In the past, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were together. In order to wait for Liu Yifei to grow up and pursue her dreams at the same time, Chu Xuan had a slow pace in both life and career in the past few years.
Now that the evidence has been proven, both his relationship and his career are guaranteed, the couple is in sync, and Chu Xuan's career pace has begun to speed up.
This was the first change that was revealed after the couple's testimony, which made Liu Yifei uncomfortable, which led to tonight's conflict.
But Liu Yifei was entangled again. Chu Xuan stood on the director's side and chose to shoot late at night to catch up with the filming schedule. This was right.
It's just that women's sensibilities often have the upper hand, and they can easily suppress the desire to look at things rationally. Seeing that Chu Xuan turned a deaf ear to the good things she had promised in the morning, Liu Yifei finally got angry and returned to the hotel angrily.
.
"Hiss~"
After wearing high heels for a few days, her heels were a little sore. Liu Yifei reached out under the quilt and rubbed them. The soreness made her hiss slightly, and she immediately became angry again.
"You also said that you would wash my feet and massage my feet at night. Man, oh, you are telling such nonsense!"
Liu Yifei suddenly remembered that in the morning, Chu Xuan had promised to massage her feet, but now it seemed that it was all in vain, and the beauty of the morning had completely disappeared.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She lifted the quilt and got out of bed, walked to the door of the room, and locked the door with a click: "If you don't keep your promise, then you can sleep on the sofa."
Once a woman's temper breaks out, she sometimes seems a little unreasonable, but as long as you give her a certain amount of time to calm down, she will recover quickly.
This was the case for Liu Yifei. She lay in bed for an hour and couldn't fall asleep, but her mood was mostly relieved.
She suddenly felt that her behavior was not the way to solve the problem, so she opened her eyes in the dark and picked up her phone to ask for help.
She found her mother's number and then stopped. She and Chu Xuan encountered a conflict soon after arguing with each other. What would her mother think of them then?
Liu Yifei was not ready to tell her mother about this, so she found her father's phone number and sent her a text message to explain everything in detail, hoping that her father could give her a solution to the problem.
【This is your fault.】
[Why is it my fault? It’s obviously because he didn’t keep his promise! 】
Liu Yifei never thought that her father's first reply would announce that it was her mistake, which made her angry.
[Whether you keep your promise or not is your own business. You can deal with it privately, but in a workplace like the crew, you should first endure it and accompany him on the night of filming, encourage him, and let him complete the work in the best possible condition.
, and then you will deal with the matter of whether or not you keep your promise.
Otherwise, if you walked away in anger like you, although you gave Xiaoxuan face by not being angry on the spot, it was not enough. What would Xiaoxuan think when he saw that you were not there and did not answer the phone? You also gave him an extra burden that he should not have.
burden.
This burden may make it difficult for him to do his job of filming the big night, and your wife is also angry with him, which means that both ends are in chaos, and a contradiction and contradiction has been added to the normal career and life.
trouble.】
Liu Yifei was startled, her eyes flickered and she pursed her lips.
I thought I had taken care of Chu Xuan's face by not saying anything at the scene, but from what my father said, it seemed that he didn't do enough.
【What should we do now?】
[Go to him, give him a late-night snack, and then accompany him to complete the shooting, then he will feel completely at ease. As for why you don’t answer the phone, it depends on what reason you have in mind.]
Liu Yifei frowned. She still wanted to go find him? She also wanted to deliver supper? She also wanted to accompany him to shoot the night?
It was obvious that he had not kept his promise first, and she had already left, but now he wanted to please him. Didn't she lose face?
[If you believe Dad, go ahead. If you don’t believe me, just handle it on your own.]
Liu Yifei bit her lower lip, not understanding her father's solution to the problem.
She was already angry, and not answering the phone meant that Chu Xuan must have known that she was angry. Now she was asked to put down a little bit of her self-esteem and try to please her, which was a bit hard for her to accept.
"I am your biological daughter, and you just watch your daughter being wronged like this?" She said inwardly.
Liu Yifei was extremely confused, but after a few minutes she finally chose to believe her father.
This is the first time in her life that she has talked about her love life with her father, and it is also the first communication between her and her father since they regained the sincere relationship between father and daughter during the Chinese New Year for the sake of marriage.
Although she didn't understand why her father asked her to do this, she still trusted him.
She lifted the quilt and got dressed. It happened that the hotel was arranging midnight snacks for the crew, so she decided to drop by and deliver them in person.
…
"stop!"
"Come back after taking a rest."
At nearly one o'clock in the morning, the upper floors of Shenzhen's landmark office buildings were lit with the few lights in the building.
Chu Xuan is still directing the play, and the crew is still busy.
The filming did not go smoothly. I wonder what is going on with Liu Yifei. This is the first time such a situation has happened to Liu Yifei in so many years of being together. Chu Xuan feels a knot in his heart and feels uneasy. No matter how he looks at the camera, he doesn't see it right.
A small scene has to be filmed more than ten times in a row. The actors only think of the director as being strict, and the teachers only think of striving for excellence. In fact, there is a crack in the director Chu Xuan's state of mind, and he cannot fully focus on the filming.
"The midnight snack hasn't been delivered yet?" Chu Xuan asked Liang Datong.
"On the way." Liang Datong replied.
Chu Xuan nodded, and while the crew took a break, he picked up his phone and looked at it. When he was hesitating whether to call Liu Yifei again, a call with the note "Dad" came in.
dad?
Why is my father-in-law calling him now?
Chu Xuan raised his eyebrows the next moment and realized that it was one o'clock in the morning here, while it was only around five o'clock in the afternoon in France.
But why did his father-in-law call him?
Chu Xuan was curious, picked up the phone and got up to go to an uninhabited area to answer the call.
"dad?"
"What's going on with you guys? Sissi is crying like crazy. Have you made her feel wronged?"
Chu Xuan's face was dull. Did his wife cry?
Chu Xuan seemed to be shocked by this incident and remained silent for a long time. Ankang on the other side of the phone continued: "She cried as soon as she called, saying that you didn't keep your promise and didn't do what you promised her."
"It's also for your own good. I'm so tired of directing and acting every day. If I don't adjust my schedule, I might have some physical problems someday. She thinks she cares about you, but you don't take her concern seriously, so
She feels aggrieved, is that what it is?"
Chu Xuan pursed his lips: "Well, that's the situation, but...this...don't cry. I think she should understand. In order for the crew to catch up with the filming progress, I don't..."
Chu Xuan didn't know what to say. Hearing Liu Yifei cry, he was instantly confused.
The mood that was a little tempered at first was completely gone, and the feeling of discomfort that I felt at the beginning was gone.
He just wants to see Liu Yifei now, apologize to her, and comfort her. He can't stand the thought of Liu Yifei crying because of him.
"I understand you from your point of view. It's okay to do this to complete the work. This is due diligence to the entire crew. This is your duty as a director."
"But from Sissi's point of view, I also understand her. After all, it was you who made the promise first. If you can break your promise at will because of certain things, then from a man's point of view, your promise is too worthless. From a man's point of view, your promise is worthless.
From Sissi’s point of view, how can she still trust you in the future?”
Chu Xuan was silent for a few seconds: "Dad is right."
"So this matter is not easy to handle. Both sides have the right reasons. I also saw Sissi feeling uncomfortable and felt distressed as a father, so I made this call to you. Logically speaking, you should handle your husband's affairs by yourself."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "But now that the phone call has been made, Sissi seems to have been hurt even more. Let me stand on her side and say something to you: Don't overdo her concern for you.
Consumption, when the consumption limit is exhausted and she no longer cares about you, then your relationship will be over;"
"Perhaps this concern will restrict your freedom, but it is the natural result of your choice to get married and become husband and wife. Since you have chosen this result, you as a husband should also shoulder its responsibilities and obligations.
."
"That's all. I'm busy here, so I won't say more. After you finish work and go back, have a good communication with her. Frankness and sincerity are the only way to maintain the relationship between husband and wife. I hope you are doing well."
"Okay, Dad, you are busy." Chu Xuan said, "I will remember your words and we will have a good communication. When I finish my work, I will rush back to comfort her. She will not be wronged."
"Okay, take care of it yourself." Ankang hung up the phone.
Chu Xuan put down his cell phone, dialed Liu Yifei's number, and walked slowly to the floor-to-ceiling window.
Chu Xuan looked at the bustling night scene outside the window, his eyes filled with distress after hearing that Liu Yifei was crying. He didn't know if Liu Yifei was asleep. He just hoped that he could answer his call now. He wanted to apologize first.
Then call it a day and go back to the hotel to talk.
"Hey, what's wrong?"
Hearing Liu Yifei's voice and finally answering the phone, Chu Xuan's heart palpitated, but he realized his mistake under Ankang's words. At this time, he felt a little embarrassed when facing Liu Yifei, so he was ready for a moment.
I don’t know how to apologize.
"Aren't you asleep yet?"
He asked nonsense, Liu Yifei answered your call, do you think she slept or not?
"No, I'm delivering you supper on the way. There are also two large lobsters in the hotel restaurant. Your favorite food, I brought it to you. Wait, it will be there soon. You can have someone come down to pick it up. There are a few things.
More, call more people."
Chu Xuan was directly surprised by Liu Yifei's words. Is Liu Yifei bringing supper to the crew? She also specially brought him two big lobsters? Isn't Liu Yifei angry?
When Chu Xuan hung up the phone with a smile, Chu Xuan fell silent, feeling very uncomfortable.
Liu Yifei was angry at first, then cried to her father about her grievances, and now she pretended to be nothing and brought them supper, and even specially brought his favorite food. Could it be that she was afraid that he would be unhappy too, so she turned to please him?
Silly girl, don’t you feel more wronged by doing this?
Chu Xuan suddenly felt very guilty, but he was very happy and shouted in his heart: What more can a husband ask for when he has a wife like this?
He calmed down, came to the set happily, and greeted everyone: "Hurry, hurry, hurry, the supper is here, follow me down and get it."
A dozen or so people followed, just out of curiosity to get a midnight snack. Why did the director have to leave in person?
Of course everyone doesn't know that their director and producer had a conflict at night. Now the producer suppresses his grievances and comes with a heart of reconciliation, while our director comes with a guilty and doting heart.
