"You still have the nerve to say that, isn't that because you are so useless?"
"If he wants to pull you away, will you come back?"
"If he asks you to take over, you will take over?"
"Didn't we discuss it well before? Do we need any room for maneuver on this matter? This is Brother Hai's project, and you are not the lead actor, so why should you help him solve his difficulties?"
"Are you an angel?"
“Or a master problem solver?”
Zhang Feng's indiscriminate bombardment completely confused Wu Di. He originally felt good about himself, but he never expected that Qinqin's wife, who didn't raise too many objections at the beginning, would be so disgusted with this matter.
But there doesn't seem to be anything wrong.
Is it possible that Wu Di was willing to follow Brother Hai's mess?
Weren't you coerced by him?
"Xiao Fengfeng, you can't blame me for this. You know my situation best. Of course I don't want to do it anymore, but I can't stand it and he insists on pulling me."
"Besides, Brother Hai did talk to the chairman of the jury about our affairs, which was very helpful for us to win the award. I can't be too heartless."
"You didn't see the situation at that time. If I didn't agree, he would most likely cause sabotage."
Zhang Feng glanced at him sideways and sneered: "Humph!"
"Coward!"
A useless man is the most useless!
Zhang Feng's eyes seemed to reveal this.
Wu Di suddenly felt that he was too embarrassed to see anyone.
The two of them were silent for a moment, and the atmosphere finally relaxed a little. Zhang Feng also felt that it seemed to be a little too much.
She was still very clear about Wu Di's situation at that time. Without Brother Hai's help, they would not have been able to win the grand prize so smoothly.
Whether you wanted it or not, he had already sent his kindness there. The jury awarded the award, but you couldn't accept it. You couldn't tell whether it was Brother Hai's help that made you win the award, or the jury's review.
You have a soft spot.
But after all, you won the prize, and Brother Hai did help with the operation, and the sequence is very clear.
You can't receive favors from others and then turn around and deny them!
However, the price of ten million is too high!
Besides, this was not Wu Di's responsibility in the first place, so why did Wu Di take over the blame? All in all, Hai Ge's trip always seemed like bullying an honest person.
"never mind!"
"The matter has come to this, and we can no longer regret it. You'd better go see Lao Zhang and think about how to explain to him."
"It's easy for me to talk about this. The trouble is with Lao Zhang. He has quite some objections to your behavior."
Wu Di's face turned serious and he suddenly became nervous: "What do you mean?"
"Lao Zhang is unwilling?"
Didn't I explain it to him before? He also expressed his understanding. Why are we talking again now? Isn't he trying to cause some sabotage?
The competition between directors has always been fierce, but the difference is that the fights between actors are often more superficial.
Fans are fighting and noisy, and the actor himself has a lot of daily promotional activities, so he always has to show his face.
If you are not careful, it will cause many conflicts.
The director is different. As a behind-the-scenes person, even a veteran with a bloody physique like Brother Hai is still much more low-key than an actor.
Moreover, directors usually have a certain level of education, and when they speak, they tend to talk about scenes, and they all use nice words, and everyone seems to be amiable and harmonious.
On the surface, of course, no deep contradiction can be seen.
But, behind the scenes...
To say that there are no conflicts at all is to deceive oneself and others.
However, how will the discord between directors be presented? Wu Di took the initiative to come to Lao Zhang's study out of curiosity.
Zhang Feng had already stated in advance that she was unwilling to get involved in this matter, so Lao Zhang had no choice but to have an interview with Wu Di.
This is purely to rush the ducks to the shelves and does not have any enthusiasm.
When Lao Zhang saw Wu Di, he took the initiative to congratulate him a few times. I don't know if it was true or just perfunctory, but it at least showed that he probably wouldn't embarrass Wu Di in this conversation.
We are all a family. It seems a bit unfounded that Wu Di would have such thoughts. Will Lao Zhang make it difficult for him to kiss his son-in-law?
"Mr. Zhang, I really didn't mean to go against your idea about that matter. It was Brother Hai who insisted on pulling me to help. I was forced to do nothing."
"I have also made a lot of trade-offs. On the one hand, Labyrinth has been submitted to the film festival and has been shortlisted. Since I have gone, I must gain something. Brother Hai's help is also crucial to us.
important."
"Since I have received his favor, I can't refuse his request."
"But don't worry, based on my observation of Meng's Orphans, the total box office is not promising, and I'm afraid I'll have to lose money."
Wu Di said this possibility with trepidation, his heart was bleeding. Wasn't this a pre-determination that Ms. Lan would lose money?
my money!
That's all my money!
Lao Zhang's brows jumped and he looked at Wu Di in confusion: "Who asked you to talk about the movie?"
"Are you confused about making movies?"
"Isn't it about the movie?"
"Then Xiaofeng said just now..."
"say what?"
"It's your turn to speak up about this matter!"
For some reason, a look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on Lao Zhang's long face: "Xiao Wu, now that you have won the grand prize, have you forgotten something?"
Lao Zhang kindly reminded him, but Wu Di still looked dull.
pitiful!
How could a person who usually looks quite smart turn into a fool at a critical moment?
Do you still need Lao Zhang to speak out about this kind of thing in person?
Wu Di really couldn't figure out Lao Zhang's intention. What could he do? Since he couldn't guess, it was better not to speak, so as not to make too many mistakes.
"It's just about getting married!"
"You can't really forget it, can you?"
Lao Zhang was so angry that he almost slammed the table, damn it!
This kid has been living in my house for more than half a year, and he has even forgotten the important matter of getting a certificate!
marry?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Is this still happening?
What does this have to do with movies?
After pondering for a long time, Wu Di finally realized it.
"Mr. Zhang, are you talking to me about marriage?"
"Isn't it about investing in a movie for Brother Hai?"
Lao Zhang:…………
"Of course it is. Since the investment has been made, it is a thing of the past and has been turned over."
"What I care about is your marriage to Xiaofeng."
"I heard before that Xiaofeng wanted to wait until you won the grand prize before getting married. Now you have got your wish, how about it?"
"When are you going to do it?"
Lao Zhang looked at Wu Di expectantly, which made Wu Di's pressure increase sharply. Why does Lao Zhang seem a little anxious?
Logically speaking, with Zhang Feng's qualifications, she absolutely does not need to worry about marriage. Lao Zhang is also a person in the entertainment industry, and he does not have any old feudal ideas.
Just because her daughter has found a boyfriend and they are living together, she does not have to let her marry Wu Di. There is no such thing.
However, there was no need to be so anxious about this matter.
Even if Wu Di won the award, it hasn't even been a month yet. Why would he immediately put marriage on the agenda?
However, under the earnest gaze of his old father, Wu Di could not refuse.
He could only nod his head: "I can do it anytime. Xiaofeng and I treat each other sincerely. However, this is also a big matter. I will discuss it with Xiaofeng first to see whether to get the certificate first or prepare for the wedding.
Get the certificate.”
After all, getting married is a big event. Moreover, when it comes to marriage, it is always more important to the female side.
Zhang Feng, although she has a fiery personality in daily life, it is obvious that she still has some dreamy thoughts about things like marriage.
There is no need to doubt this.
Lao Zhang nodded: "That's right."
"You really should listen to Xiaofeng's opinion."
"But it's okay for you, right? Have you made up your mind?"
After all, Lao Zhang is still a responsible old father. Although he usually seems to have a weird temper, he still shows a warm side when it comes to his daughter's life-long events.
Wu Di thought about it for a moment, and then nodded cautiously: "Mr. Zhang, you can rest assured that Xiaofeng will trust me."
"Although I can't guarantee what will happen ten or twenty years from now, I can say with certainty that I will never let her get hurt."
As a man, Lao Zhang knew very well that this was a very rigorous and cautious answer, and he was satisfied.
"All right!"
"Then I will no longer interfere in this matter. You young people will take care of it. Once you have made your decision, let me know."
"I will fully support you."
Just like many girls who are immersed in romance novels, the minds of many women are always filled with all kinds of pink dream bubbles.
They look forward to their whole life, expecting a man to love them forever, and they are unwilling to see the true face of so-called love.
In fact, while women always complain that men don't love them enough, isn't their own love also fading?
When you are in love, there are always good things to do, and everything is good for you. After a few years, the man will become a waste who can neither make money nor be gentle and considerate enough.
The nagging and scolding are always endless, and there are complaints every day. Could it be that this image has not faded in the eyes of men?
Wu Di is obviously a person who is very good at sweet-talking. He can make even an old man like Lao Zhang smile. But when it comes to women, does he still have no means?
However, when facing Lao Zhang, when he needed to express his stance most, he chose this method.
It's because he knows that as a man, it's better to say something serious than blowing those illusory pink bubbles.
Conversations between men.
Eternal promises are unreliable, they are all lies, but realistic statements can be believed.
No one is sure what the future will bring, but as long as the baby girl can be protected from harm, this is already the best outcome.
"Then, Xiao Wu, it's time for us to talk about other things."
Just when Wu Di thought he had finally passed the level and could drink tea in peace, Lao Zhang suddenly asked a second question.
He was slightly startled, but Lao Zhang smiled.
Young man, you must be confused by me!
After all, you are still inexperienced, so you think you can easily pass the test by playing tricks on him? He actually doesn’t know how to settle the scores?
"It's about the Meng's orphans!"
Wu Dideng stood there for a long time and didn't realize why this old man mentioned this matter again.
Didn't he just refuse to talk when others wanted to talk?
Didn’t I say that everything has been rewritten?
Why did this come back again?
"That matter, what are your orders?" Wu Di also learned the lesson. Rather than keep playing riddles and guessing, he might as well accept Lao Zhang's order directly.
He can now see that no matter how hard he tries, he is still at the bottom of the food chain in this circle.
What's the point of resisting if you're only destined to be sent by the big guys?
Just obey orders.
Lao Zhang was very satisfied, that was right, and his attitude was very correct.
"When is the Mengshi Orphans going to be released?" Lao Zhang immediately assumed a matter-of-fact attitude, saying that he was going to make a movie just to find out the news.
Well, now that you've finished shooting the movie, it's time to give it some useful information.
"It's probably the Spring Festival. I think that's what Brother Hai means. Moreover, the Meng's Orphans have made a huge investment. If they don't go to the Spring Festival, they will definitely not be able to get their money back."
"It's the Spring Festival period, so it's still possible."
"Even if the Spring Festival comes, he won't be able to get back his money!" Lao Zhang said with certainty.
In fact, Wu Di also thought so in his heart, but he couldn't tell the truth. Doesn't that prove that he was acting stupidly by rushing to invest even though he knew he was going to lose money?
"Do you think he can arrive as scheduled?"
Wu Di firmly said: "It should be possible. Although the filming has not been completed yet, it is almost there. I am just a supporting role. The scenes have been completed, but they have not been announced to the outside world. The protagonist part has been filmed before the opening of the Water City Film Festival."
It’s over, I think Brother Hai just got another amount of money from me, so he just delayed it for a while."
At this point, Wu Di still couldn't help but want to complain, mainly because of Brother Hai's behavior, which was really speechless.
"The Orphans of Meng is a period film, and there are no special effects. Post-production shouldn't take too long. I heard that Brother Hai always edits very quickly. I think it will be almost complete in another month."
"It's easy to get a license for a movie with this theme. There's nothing sensitive about it, so the process should be smooth."
"It's only June now, and there's still more than half a year before the Spring Festival. There's still time." Wu Di told Lao Zhang all the news he knew.
If you want to ask for specific information, such as the quality of the movie, the performance of the leading actor, and how good Brother Hai is, there is actually no need to ask specific questions about these things.
During the filming, Wu Di came back. By that time, his attitude towards the film "The Orphans of Mengshi" was already very clear.
As for the quality, it's really mediocre. If it was really outstanding, it's impossible for Wu Di not to show it at all.
What's more, if the quality is good, Wu Di will not be embarrassed when making subsequent investments.
