Chapter 508 Rejuvenation

Northwest Film and Television Base.

The crew of "Destiny", which was shot here, stayed in the hotel.

Zhang Jianbai, chairman and director of Huahai, was chatting with several senior executives of the production team. There were also several new female talents who were called by the senior executives from within the company to make guest appearances.

As we were chatting, the topic suddenly turned to Xu Xiyu.

"Xu Xiyu went to the United States." One person said.

"Why did he go to the United States?" Zhang Jianbai was puzzled.

"He said he was nominated for a Hugo Award. Come and attend the award ceremony."

"What is the Hugo Award?" Before Zhang Jianbai could reply, a female artist who was sitting next to them making tea asked curiously.

In fact, this female artist knows what the Hugo Awards are. Influenced by the old employees of Huaqing, the news is now spreading among Huahai employees, so she has naturally heard about it.

But she just had to pretend not to understand, and then let Zhang Jianbai or other senior officials present show off her knowledge.

Finally, I looked at them with admiration, showing that I had learned. Wouldn’t this emotional value be full?

Obviously, her goal was achieved, and the senior person who spoke began to explain.

The more he explained, the more admiration appeared in the female artist's eyes.

After she finished explaining, she showed an innocent look and said: "Mr. Wu, why do you know everything and feel that there is no problem for you in the world? This is amazing."

As soon as these words came out, Mr. Wu burst out laughing, which was quite helpful.

The other people also laughed when they saw this, they are all old fools, and the female artist's flattery can still be seen, but being able to see it does not mean that she is unhappy when being flattered.

After feeling so happy for a while, Zhang Jianbai suddenly realized something was wrong and frowned: "Hey, that's not right. Does the copyright of "The Three-Body Problem" belong to Xu Xiyu? Why not to Hua Hai?"

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the office.

After a while, Mr. Wu came to his senses and explained: "The situation of "Three-Body" is special. It is not a project approved by Huaqing.

It was accidentally leaked when Xu Xiyu was filming "Infernal Affairs" in Hong Kong while repairing his computer. Several pieces of music he composed for "The Three-Body Problem" were also leaked at the time.

Therefore, he had to release and publish the seventh draft of "The Three-Body Problem"; the copyright of this temporarily leaked project cannot be in the hands of Hua Hai, because it had nothing to do with Hua Qing in the first place. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Jianbai breathed a sigh of relief.

The reason why he asked just now was actually not because he was greedy for the copyright of "The Three-Body Problem", but for other reasons.

In the past few months, "Shanghai Fortress", "Super Family", and "New Paradise·Wangxian 2" were all being filmed, and many rumors reached his ears.

Words like "It's broken" and "It's rotten" never stopped.

But when I called to ask the main creator of the crew, the reply I received was, "Everything is progressing in an orderly manner and there will be no problems, Mr. Zhang."

The two completely opposite voices caused Zhang Jianbai to unconsciously feel some pressure.

But he still chose to believe the creators of the show, because most of the "rumours" came from Huaqing's old employees.

Zhang Jianbai felt that this might be the "hidden child" left by Xu Xiyu who was deliberately setting the pace and changing the mentality.

But then again, the pressure in Zhang Jianbai's heart has not gone away because he believes in the creator. He even began to worry that the project left by Xu Xiyu had pitfalls.

Therefore, as soon as I heard that "Three-Body" was going to the United States to win an award, the feeling that there was something wrong with it suddenly arose.

He was worried that Xu Xiyu deliberately left some "sugar-coated poison" for Hua Hai, and left with the "real sugar".

But after listening to Mr. Wu's explanation, he felt that this was indeed a coincidence.

Since it was a coincidence, there was no need to worry. However, he still asked with concern: "Old Wu, if Xu Xiyu wins this Hugo Award, what will be the subsequent effects?"

"You can't get it." Old Wu shook his head directly.

"Why?"

"This award has never been awarded to a Chinese, not only a Chinese, but no one in Asia has ever received it. Therefore, it is impossible to award it to Xu Xiyu." Old Wu said with a smile.

After finishing speaking, before Zhang Jianbai could ask questions, he continued: "Taking a step back, even if he really takes it down, it won't have much effect."

"It's no use winning an award, why?" the female artist asked on Zhang Jianbai's behalf.

"Why do you think this award has been held for seventy or eighty years, but you have never heard of it? Doesn't that explain the problem?

"The Three-Body Problem" itself is already well-known here, so winning this award is just icing on the cake and has no effect. "Old Wu spread his hands.

His words removed the last trace of worry from Zhang Jianbai's heart.

Yes, Lao Wu is right.

As a result, Zhang Jianbai burst into laughter and deliberately said derogatoryly: "I think Xu Xiyu is really too busy now, and he has to run to receive such a pheasant award.

At first, he could even win the grand prize at the Venice Film Festival and leave directly with Lu Qinyao and the others. Now he is really Wang Xiaoer celebrating the New Year, and every year is worse than the last. "Hahahahahaha." "When he smiled, others also laughed.

Smiling, Old Wu said again: "Mr. Zhang, don't you know? Not only Xu Xiyu, but also Lu Qinyao's work has stopped. Do you know why?"

"Why?"

"Her strong mother is sick, so she has to give up her job to take care of her mother. Do you think this is because God has destined her not to be popular? She has won many awards at home and abroad.

The box office, word-of-mouth, popularity and data of the work, and even her own acting and singing skills, are all visible to the naked eye at their peak.

It happened to happen at this time. Good guy, I don’t know how long I have to take care of her. When she comes back from taking care of her mother, don’t find that she has passed out again. ”

"Hahahahaha..." As soon as these words came out, the office burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha, boss, your English is improving rapidly." On the other side, Shan Xinbao, who was accompanying Xu Xiyu to the United States on a private business jet, was also laughing.

When Xu Xiyu came back from Venice, he made up his mind to start learning foreign languages. Now, he has been learning for almost half a year.

For more than half a year, I had the foreign language communication and cooperation between my teacher and Lv Ke, Hu Yang and others. In addition, I didn’t have much to do during this period, so I could concentrate on my studies.

He has made some progress, especially in speaking and listening. He can at least communicate normally and is no longer as "deaf" as before.

But even so, he still made up his mind to hide his ability as much as possible. This was the inspiration that Nancy gave him.

Pretending not to understand also has the advantage of pretending not to understand, and there will be unexpected surprises.

Of course, leaving aside the unexpected surprises.

Xu Xiyu has begun to feel complacent about his learning progress. He feels that he is not bad. It seems that it is true that his head teacher and English teacher said that he is "smart, but not serious".

It's annoying to compare people to others.

I don’t know if Shan Xinbao has become cruel in the past six months. Originally, she could only communicate in ordinary English. With her current English level, even Xu Xiyu can feel that she has taken a big step forward.

This is of course a good thing, because Shan Xinbao can be trusted and it is safer to let her do the translation.

But at the same time, Xu Xiyu's feeling of "satisfaction" disappeared instantly.

Therefore, in the face of Shan Xinbao's praise, he stretched his waist with some enthusiasm and said: "Do you know how many times I was scolded by your sister-in-law to reach this level?"

"Which sister-in-law?" Shan Xinbao rolled his eyes, there were so many sisters-in-law.

As soon as these words came out, Xu Xiyu was startled, the corner of his mouth twitched and said: "Everyone."

"Hahahaha~~" Shan Xinbao didn't mean to comfort the boss at all, and just laughed like a pig.

Smiling and laughing, she suddenly realized that she shouldn't laugh.

So, he quickly ignored the topic and said: "Boss, speaking of which, I met Du Zhiping once when I accompanied Xiaoyu to attend a brand dinner a few years ago."

Before departure, Du Zhiping had made an appointment with Xu Xiyu over the phone, but Xu Xiyu did not agree to meet her.

In fact, during this period of time in China, Du Zhiping also made two appointments with Xu Xiyu, but Xu Xiyu did not keep the appointment.

He mainly considered Hu Ningwei's mood. After all, because of Hu Ningtian's incident, Hu Ningwei and this aunt were almost at a loss.

Although the official responsibility lies with Li Bowen, everyone knows what is going on privately.

Now that she was out of the country, Du Zhiping directly said that she was also going to Spokane, and made it clear that she came specifically to meet Xu Xiyu.

Under this situation, Xu Xiyu was also curious about what she wanted to do.

Shan Xinbao naturally heard Xu Xiyu talk about this situation, so he mentioned Du Zhiping.

Hearing this, Xu Xiyu couldn't help but ask: "Did she recognize you?"

"I must have recognized her, and even chatted with Xiaoyu for a few words, but Xiaoyu didn't pay much attention to her."

After saying that, before Xu Xiyu could reply, Shan Xinbao sarcastically said: "Boss, you don't know that this Aunt Du has become even more elegant since her husband came in."

"That is, the Li family has all the power. She loves this so much, so naturally she is in the limelight."

"No, boss, I don't mean in the limelight. You haven't seen her in person. Good guy, I feel like she has become a child again!"

"Ah?" Xu Xiyu was puzzled. What is rejuvenation? Aunt Du is a child grandmother in Tianshan. How can she still have this ability?

"They say people are in high spirits during happy events. I think she is extremely happy. This proves that Li Bowen was really tricked by her." Shan Xinbao said again.

"Then according to what you say, should I see her or not?"

"It's better not to meet each other. Let's go after winning the prize. The bridesmaids are not good people!" Shan Xinbao said with a Jinmen accent.
