Chapter 113 Finished
The next day, Wang Shu received a call from Han Sanping and chatted for a while before hanging up.
Since the filming of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" has not yet been completed, Wang Shu set off for Hengdian without staying in the capital.
"Director Wang, have you returned to the capital?"
Sitting in the car, Wang Shu received a text message from Mei Ting.
"Well, I'm back. I'm leaving for Hengdian now." Wang Shu replied immediately after seeing Mei Ting's text message.
"Ah? Have you already set off for Hengdian?" Mei Ting replied in surprise.
"What's wrong?" Wang Shu asked in confusion.
"It's nothing, I was just planning to ask Director Wang out for a get-together, but I didn't expect Director Wang to have already left." Mei Ting replied with a somewhat depressed expression.
"Aren't you filming "New Marriage Era"? How come you still have time to run outside the crew?" Wang Shu knew about Mei Ting's movements, so he asked doubtfully.
"There just aren't any scenes for me these two days," Mei Ting replied.
"That's it. It's just that I've already set off. It's not good to turn back. We'll meet again when "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is finished and we return to the capital." Wang Shu sent a text message.
Mei Ting's role in "The Legend of Zhen Huan" was filmed in advance compared to other roles, so it was completed earlier.
"Yeah." Mei Ting replied.
Wang Shu was riding in the car. He and Mei Ting exchanged text messages and chatted for a long time before they ended.
Hengdian.
After a long journey, Wang Shu came to this place again.
When he appeared on the set, he immediately caused a sensation.
Director Wang, the best screenwriter at Cannes and the best actress at Cannes, is back.
"Director Wang."
"Director Wang."
Many staff members greeted me with smiles along the way.
He could tell that when he returned from Cannes this time, many people's voices changed when they called him "Director Wang."
More respect than before.
"Hello." Wang Shu still maintained a friendly attitude and responded to the staff who greeted him with a smile.
Ning Jing's eyes lit up when she saw Wang Shu coming over, and then she joked with a smile: "Hey, isn't this Director Wang who won the Best Screenplay at Cannes a few days ago, and also won a Cannes Best Actress? "
"Director Wang, when will you also praise me as the Queen of Cannes? "
Ning Jing is already very familiar with Wang Shu, and he is much older than Wang Shu. He was young, so he would joke with Wang Shu from time to time.
Of course, more often than not, it was Wang Shu teasing Ning Jing, not Ning Jing teasing him.
“After finishing work today, I went back to the hotel and slept, and I dreamed of everything.”
Wang Shu said with a smile.
These words immediately made Ning Jing resentful. Before she could speak again, Zhou Xun also noticed Wang Shu, walked over with a smile, and whispered: "Back?"
" Back." Wang Shu and Zhou Xun looked into each other's eyes and said with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Mi, Jiang Xin, Shu Chang and others all gathered around.
Wang Shu was helpless. After finally being clean for a period of time, he had to live a life where the chirping sounds were in his ears all the time.
at night.
Yang Mi, Jiang Xin, and others organized a small-scale dinner.
Except for a few of them, no male actors were invited, only Wang Shu was invited.
However, this is normal.
Because since the filming of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" started, some actresses have often had reunion dinners, and it is rare to invite male actors to join them.
This time it's the same as usual, just adding a king tree.
Xu Huanhuan sat relatively close to Wang Shu, and she took the initiative to peel the shrimp for Wang Shu very considerately.
Ning Jing saw Xu Huanhuan’s actions, curled her lips, and then put a chopstick of beef into the hot pot. After waiting for about ten seconds, she put the good beef in front of everyone. Putting the human noodles into Wang Shu's bowl, he said with a smile on his face: "This beef is pretty good, try it."
Wang Shu smiled and put the beef that Ning Jing brought over into his mouth. He chewed a few mouthfuls and swallowed, and then said with a smile: "It's indeed delicious."
The smile on Ning Jing's face became even bigger, as if all she did was just for Wang Shu's. A compliment.
Zhou Xun sat next to Wang Shu, smiling and watching Wang Shu's behavior of eating beef. Whenever the beer in Wang Shu's cup dropped below 70%, he took the initiative to fill it up for Wang Shu.
Yang Mi, Jiang Xin, Shu Chang and others were far away and could only watch helplessly.
Next, Xu Huanhuan took the lead and told Wang Shu about the interesting things that happened in the crew during his absence these days.
After drinking too much beer, Wang Shu felt the urge to urinate and got up to go to the toilet.
As soon as he left, Chen Zihan followed closely behind.
When Wang Shu came out of the toilet to wash his hands in the sink, he saw Chen Zihan also washing his hands. He couldn't help but smile and said: "People who drink too much beer tend to run to the toilet."
As he said that, he just approached the sink. , suddenly saw Chen Zihan slightly in a trance, as if about to fall.
Wang Shu had quick eyes and quickly reached out to hug Chen Zihan to prevent Chen Zihan from falling.
……
……
...
"Are you okay?" Wang Shu asked with concern, his face not red and his heart not beating.
"It's okay." Chen Zihan replied softly, "I just drank some beer and felt dizzy."
"It's okay." Wang Shu breathed a sigh of relief and said while helping Chen Zihan up. , "Since you feel dizzy, don't drink beer. Just drink some juice."
"Yes." Chen Zihan nodded and followed Wang Shu back to the dining table.
Zhou Xun and others saw Chen Zihan walking closely behind Wang Shu, and looked at her suspiciously.
Chen Zihan was calm and composed, as if he had not seen the suspicious looks of Zhou Xun and others.
Chen Zihan played Guo Fu in Liu Yifei's version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" released in 2006.
Although she only played a supporting actress in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", she has actually been playing the leading role since 1997.
However, he has starred in many works, but has always been lukewarm. Another actress Li Xiaoran who looks very similar to her is also destined to be a type.
Although the two look alike, they are equally easy to distinguish.
The mountains, peaks, towering, and standing ones are Li Xiaoran, and the ones that stretch across the plains are Chen Zihan.
At the end of last month, a movie titled "The Botanist's Daughter" was released in France.
Li Xiaoran is one of the starring roles.
These days, it’s all fashion and fame.
Therefore, in the movie "The Botanist's Daughter", both heroines devoted themselves to art.
Although Li Xiaoran basically only shows his back, some things can still be seen from the side in some shots.
In this way, the dinner ended with joy and laughter.
The group returned to the hotel together and each went to his own room.
After Shu Chang returned to the room, he sent a message to Liu Yifei: "Qianxi, Director Wang came to the set today. I observed carefully, but I still didn't see that Director Wang seemed to be releasing an album."
"Ah? Is Wang Shu back from Cannes already?" Liu Yifei asked in surprise when she saw Shu Chang's text message.
"I'm back. Not only did I come to the crew today, we also had a dinner together just now." Shu Chang replied.
“Envy.” Liu Yifei knows how to mess with people’s mentality, so she replied immediately.
"What are you envious of? Although I had dinner with Director Wang tonight, I didn't say a few words to Director Wang at all." Shu Chang responded to the message with a sigh.
"That's enviable. Wang Shu is now the director who won the Best Actress Award at Cannes. There are only a handful of directors with this ability in the country. You can still say a few words to him, but we people don't even have a chance to talk. Can you not be envious?" Liu Yifei teased Shu Chang deliberately.
“.” Shu Chang replied speechlessly with a series of ellipses.
Seeing this, Liu Yifei stopped teasing Shu Chang and asked, "Your drama will be finished soon, right?"
"Soon." Shu Chang told the truth.
“What are Wang Shu’s next plans, is it to make movies or TV shows?” Liu Yifei asked.
"I don't know." Shu Chang continued to speak the truth.
“Didn’t you ask about it?” Liu Yifei asked impatiently.
"I asked around, but the crew doesn't know about it. No matter how much I ask, I can't get the result." Shu Chang glanced at the text message Liu Yifei sent on his phone and replied.
The next day.
Gong Li, Liu Ye and others from the crew of "The Golden Armor" came to visit. Wang Shu smiled and chatted with them for a while, then watched Gong Li and Liu Ye leave.
June 10th.
"The Legend of Zhen Huan" wrapped up in Hengdian, and the filming of this drama has come to an end.
Wang Shu does not intend to do the editing work himself, but will leave it to China Film, Yangshi, and his Yishu company.
At the wrapping banquet, Wang Shu expressed his gratitude to the staff of all departments of the crew as always, and then led the actors who were still on the crew and had already left the crew because they had not finished filming in advance to eat the wrapping banquet together.
On June 11, Wang Shu returned to the capital.
As soon as he returned home, Ning Jing's call came.
"Director Wang, have you returned to the capital, right?" Ning Jing asked.
“I’m back.” Wang Shu told the truth.
"Do you have time? Mr. Ren would like to make an appointment with you." Ning Jing is a straight-tempered person. After a few polite words, she went straight to the point.
"Ren Zhonglun?" Wang Shu asked uncertainly.
"Yes." Ning Jing replied affirmatively.
"Okay, tell me a time and I will go directly there." Wang Shu said.
"How about this afternoon?" Ning Jing asked.
"Okay." Wang Shu responded.
Afternoon.
Wang Shu met Ren Zhonglun from Shanghai Film Academy in a private room in a coffee shop. Also in the private room with Ren Zhonglun was Ning Jing.
The three of them were polite for a moment, and then Ren Zhonglun got straight to the point and said, "I heard that Director Wang will be planning to make a new movie, but I don't know about the funding."
Wang Shulai He had already guessed Ren Zhonglun's intention before, and he said: "The new movie has been negotiated with Director Han. If Mr. Ren is interested, why not give Director Han a call?"
"It has been negotiated. Really?" Ren Zhonglun was quite shocked when he heard this.
Wang Shu said with a smile: "We have discussed it with Director Han before, and the preparation work has already been carried out by China Film Group Corporation. Now we just need to wait for the filming permit to be officially launched."
"So, if Mr. Ren wants to join, it's already too late."
"You guys have reached a cooperation very early?" Ren Zhonglun was surprised. This operation did not allow others to get on the bus at all. opportunity.
“It’s not very early.” Wang Shu smiled and did not elaborate on this issue, but just touched on it.
Ren Zhonglun nodded and did not say more on this topic. Instead, he smiled bitterly and said: "Director Wang, if there are any more projects in the future, you can inform Shanghai Film Studio."
" Although Shanghai Film is not as powerful as China Film, it still has some reserved funds.”
"If Director Wang has another project in the future, come to me directly. Shanghai Film Studio will never disappoint Director Wang."
The 20 million investment in "The Tuner" does not include the copyright transaction, so he said The mainland box office revenue is 160 million.
This achievement really made Ren Zhonglun jealous.
After learning that Wang Shu had written a new book and submitted it for review, he immediately made an appointment with Wang Shu through Ning Jing.
It’s just that people’s calculations are not as good as God’s calculations.
"Easy to say." Wang Shu responded with a smile. It was just a matter of situation. No matter what he said, he would have to make a decision based on the final actual situation.
The two continued chatting for a while and then broke up.
"Director Wang, where are we going next?" Ning Jing asked as she watched Ren Zhonglun leave first, looking sideways at Wang Shu.
“Go back and take a nap, and then prepare for a new movie.” Wang Shu said.
"Won't Director Wang edit "The Legend of Zhen Huan" himself?" Ning Jing asked in surprise. These days, few directors would give up the editing rights.
Wang Shu's current operation is obviously giving up the right to edit.
"No, just leave this little matter to Yang Wang. There is no need to waste your time here." Wang Shu responded with a smile.
