Hualiu Director

Chapter 14

The wrap-up banquet is as important to a film crew as the opening ceremony of worshiping gods. Although "Three Monks" is a short film with few people, the producer Kong Xiao put a lot of thought into it.

In the best local seafood restaurant in Hengdian, the main creative team of eight people, plus the six people who came to congratulate Uncle Xing and his team, filled a big round table.

Lin Hong is the absolute protagonist of this wrap-up banquet, even veteran actors like Jin Shan are full of praise for Lin Hong's ability.

"It's not that I haven't worked with young directors before, but it's the first time I've worked with a director as talented and in-depth as you, Director Lin. I, Jin Shan, am a rough person. I can act today thanks to luck and the help of my friends in the circle. This time I got the role of the fat monk with the help of Professor Zhang. To be honest, I was worried that such a good book would be ruined, but from the moment you sat in the director’s chair, Director Lin, I believed that this film can’t be wrong. , you have a kind of courage that only great directors can have, I will never be wrong about this.

Come on, Director Lin, I, Jinshan, will not say anything else. From now on, as long as Director Lin calls, I promise to be there on call. "

According to Jin Shan's age and seniority in the industry, there is absolutely no need for him to please a new director, and Lin Hong himself has no background. Being able to say these words shows that Jin Shan is really optimistic about Lin Hong.

"This is not a film studio. Teacher Jin, you can call me Lin Hong or Xiao Lin. If you call me Director Lin, you can meet me. This time I was lucky to have Teacher Jin, and it really helped me a lot.

You may not know that for the role of the fat monk, I ran for a few days in Beijing Film and Chinese Opera, and finally found a suitable one and there was no schedule. Later, Professor Zhang found out and asked me to find a reliable one. Later, he told I said that Teacher Jin agreed to take over the role of the fat monk, and I knew it was safe here.

Also, Mr. Jin, your professional attitude on the set is really a good example for us fledgling youths, so it is the greatest luck for the crew of "Three Monks" to invite you.

Come on, don't say anything else, I respect Mr. Jin! "

After Lin Hong finished speaking, he drank the full cup of wine in one gulp, Jinshan lost face, and he also happily had a drink with Lin Hong.

Lin Hong took the lead to make an example, and the others followed suit and competed to toast Jinshan.Jin Shan was originally a bold personality, and he was famous in the circle for not getting drunk after a thousand cups. He never refused to drink until the glass was dry, and the table was very lively for a while.

After toasting Jinshan, Lin Hong clinked glasses with Uncle Xing and his generals one by one, thanking them for their care during this period, and said that if there is a chance in the future, they can cooperate, because Xingwei has power in lighting, Lin Hong didn't plan to use another team, after all, it's better to use the familiar than the experienced.

Lin Hong didn't drink alone with the 409 brothers at the wine table. He thought about it and didn't toast Zhang Shan alone. Through these days of contact, Lin Hong felt that Zhang Shan was really good.

The wrap-up banquet ended in a jubilant and lively atmosphere. Because Jin Shan was going back to the capital, Kong Xiao had already booked a flight ticket for tonight. Everyone sent Jin Shan to the car, and the crew of "Three Monks" disbanded on the spot.

After leaving the seafood restaurant, the seven of them walked back to the hotel on foot. Although everyone walked slowly after drinking, the feeling of being slightly drunk and blowing warm wind was really good.

"My first movie was finally finished. I didn't ask my family for a penny. Have you seen it, old man?"

Kong Xiao suddenly yelled as he was walking, and everyone was taken aback by him, but the passers-by on the street were not surprised. There are too many people shouting to express their emotions.

"I want to become the number one photographer in China, and I will definitely be better than you."

Zeng Shuming's cultural grades in high school are very good. Although he may not be able to get into Qingbei with his grades, there is still no problem with a 985.Later, when he had a dinner party and drank too much, he let it go, saying that he was squeezed by his family and always compared him with his brother, so he decided to come to Beijing to study photography in a fit of anger, just to beat his brother in the field he is most proud of.As for who his brother was, he fell asleep without anyone asking.

"I want to be the best art director, and I will make you proud of me."

Zhang Wentong's grandfather was a painter, and the old man doted on him the most since he was a child. Unfortunately, he died of illness a week before Zhang Wentong received the admission notice of Beijing Film and Television. This is also Zhang Wentong's lifelong regret.

"I'm going to be an actor!"

Li Xian's family is very ordinary, and there are not so many touching stories. He has grown up like a big boy next door.However, no matter how ordinary his growth environment was, he couldn't stop his love for acting. It was his dream to become an actor and prove himself through acting.

"Get out, the actor is mine! If I reverse the role, the actress will be mine!"

Passionate and passionate scenes can always turn into funny scenes because of Zhang Shan's words, but this is also what makes him so attractive.

"I want to become a great director, and I want to make a great movie that will be famous in film history!"

Lin Hong's dream has never changed, and he has remained firm in his two lifetimes. Now he has started.

"I don't want to be a lighting engineer, I want to take a camera!"

Everyone is shouting out their dreams, talking about what I want, but when I come to Xingwei, I don’t want to be a lighting engineer. It seems that Zeng Shuming robbed him of the photographer’s job. .

"Facts have proved that my photography skills are better than yours, and your lighting skills are also inferior to me, so don't struggle, the more you struggle, the more excited we will be."

"Yes, you are suitable to be a lighting engineer."

"That's right!"

Seeing that everyone supported Zeng Shuming's words, Xing Wei was so aggrieved that he almost jumped to Hengdian Nanjiang, but the more he denied it, the more everyone booed.

The seven people were joking and joking around on the streets of Hengdian. At this moment, it seemed that all the troubles in this world had left them.

"Lin Hong, thank you!"

Zhang Shan and Lin Hong walked side by side. At this moment, he spoke very solemnly, but Lin Hong was not used to it for a while.

"Thank me for what, you gave our crew the once-a-year quota of relatives and friends, I should be the one thanking you."

"You know that's not what I'm talking about. There will be opportunities to make money in the future, but money can't buy feelings. I said thank you because you didn't toast me alone at the dinner table just now, and you treated me like a brother of 409. I'd be happier giving me full pay."

Zhang Shan is the only child in the family. Since he was a child, he often had conflicts with others because of his talkativeness and mischievousness, so he didn't have any real friends until junior high school. But he finally joined Jingying, and separated from his former friends. It's getting lighter.He had been envious of the atmosphere in Li Xian's dormitory before, and now that he joined, he didn't even want to leave.

Seeing Zhang Shan, Lin Hong also revealed his true feelings. He didn't say anything, but punched Zhang Shan on the shoulder.Men, why do we need so many words.

"My third uncle was there just now, and I didn't drink to my heart's content. Let's go, let's find a place to drink again. Today either you, Zeng Shuming, will die, or I, Xing Wei, will live."

Xing Wei's proposal to add a show immediately got everyone's approval. Li Xian said to eat food stalls, and Kong Xiao said he wanted to eat hot pot. At this time, Zhang Shan had a better proposal.

"Brothers, stop arguing. I'll take you to eat grilled fish. A sister of mine owns a grilled fish shop. If we eat it, we will escape the order. If we catch it, it will be mine."

Hearing that Bawang meal was available, the animals were all eager to try it. Zhang Shan was very familiar with Hengdian, so he took the lead and led everyone to the grilled fish shop.

The grilled fish shop is divided into upper and lower floors, and there are about [-] tables, large and small, that are already full.Zhang Shan seemed to be very familiar with the staff in the store. Seeing him coming, the waiter immediately led everyone into a box that was not open to the public.

"One of the four flavors of fish, no beer, is there any good wine that Yang Zi kept in the store last time?"

Zhang Shan is very familiar with this place, and he didn't eat and drink for free not once or twice, but this time he paid attention to those bottles of wine.The waiter knew about Zhang Shan's relationship with his boss, but the boss of those bottles of wine had specifically explained it, so he wasn't sure whether to ask the shop manager for a while.

"Yes... or not?" The waiter was a little nervous.

"Sister, you can have this, it's okay, just ask the store manager."

Seeing what Zhang Shan said, the waiter trotted downstairs, and soon the store manager came up with two bottles of liquor, as well as several plates of fruit and peanuts.

These two bottles of wine look no different from ordinary Erguotou, except that the paper pasted on them has turned yellow to show how old they are.

"Hey, Erguotou puree from 68 can't be found in the market."

Xing Wei is a good wine drinker, but this is the first time he has seen such a good Erguotou, which is much better than ordinary Moutai Wuliangye, no wonder the waiter dare not take it out easily.

"Is this Yang Zi's shop?"

Yang Zi and Zhang Shan are child stars who became famous in the same sitcom. Later, they were admitted to Beijing Film and Television and became classmates. The relationship between the two has been very good since they were young. It was even rumored that they were lovers, but later it was confirmed that they were pure male and female girlfriends.Yang Zi's development in the past two years has been mediocre. Although she played the leading role in several small productions, she and Zhang Shan encountered the same problem, that is, there is no new masterpiece, and everyone's impression of him is still in that one. on sitcoms.

"Isn't it her shop? She looks like a quiet girl, but she is actually a foodie. She has a strong personality, and she often stays in Hengdian for a month. The rent of this shop is not cheaper than that in a good location in Beijing, and the labor wages are nothing. The prices are higher than those offered by the neighbors. The shop is just to satisfy my appetite, so I can’t make much money at all. But don’t tell me, the grilled fish in this shop tastes so good that I want to eat it in my own building. Let's start a family."

It was only then that Lin Hong remembered that Zhang Shan had said before that he didn't need to be reimbursed for the air ticket, but that it was enough to treat him to grilled fish, and it turned out that this was the family he was talking about.

"Yang Zi is also in Hengdian?"

"Yes, she has spent more time in Hengdian in the past few years than she has spent in Jingying and her family combined. However, the management of the drama group she is filming now is relatively strict, and her circle of friends is not allowed to post. These days, her drama is relatively rush progress, so I didn't go to her."

Everyone was eating the fruit while waiting for the grilled fish. I don't know if it was because of the presence of super VIP Zhang Shan, the four grilled fish were served quickly, and many side dishes were also presented as gifts.

The final feast was seafood, which was not enough at all, and everyone made a fuss, so the four grilled fish were really not wasted on the table.Because there were no outsiders here, everyone just concentrated on eating and drinking, and quickly finished the two bottles of puree, leaving only the skeleton of the grilled fish.

They had enough food and drink, and their emotions were in place. When the seven of them went downstairs, they all supported the stairs, and they seemed to be holding on.

"Hello, checkout."

Although Zhang Shan said that he came to eat Bawang's meal, the relationship between Lin Hong and Yang Zi was not so good, so he obediently paid the bill.

"You don't need to pay the bill. Our boss said that Zhang Shan doesn't need to pay when he brings friends over."

"Oh, let's go, Lin Hong. Don't look at eating four fish. If you don't count the wine, it's only 800 yuan. If you pay the bill, will Yang Zi lose face, and I will lose face? Let's go, I'm fine. , I’ll brush my face here to help.”

Zhang Shan pulled Lin Hong out.

"But……"

"It's nothing to worry about. When you have a new movie to shoot, if you have a suitable role, think about her, and you can eat grilled fish in the future."

In the end, Lin Hong couldn't hold back Zhang Shan, and the account was not settled. He really enjoyed the treatment of a king's meal.
