Chapter 153 Young man, I’m very optimistic about you
Zhou Yan still doesn’t know what “finding the ancient genealogy” is, and there are no reports on this in the mainland. Information about Neon spreads much faster on Taiwan and Neon. So Hou Xiaoxian saw the relevant news in advance.
Listening to Zhou Yan's confusion, Hou Xiaoxian smiled and said, "There is a TV station in Neon. When broadcasting the news about your new album, the host joked that you found ancient Chinese music scores and wrote so many good songs. "
Zhou Yan smiled, this TV reporter is really imaginative.
From Hou Xiaoxian’s tone, the host was making fun of him, and Hou Xiaoxian definitely didn’t believe it.
But Zhou Yan smiled and said, "Yes, I just found the ancient book, and I still have a bunch of it on hand. I will find time to distribute it slowly in the future."
Hou Xiaoxian naturally knew that Zhou Yan was joking, so he said with a smile, "When a reporter interviews you later, you tell people the same thing."
"I am really ready to tell people this. What a good publicity point."
Hou Xiaoxian nodded: " That's true, it has a very good propaganda effect. Now some TV stations in Taiwan are following suit and saying it is true. "
"Can't the directors of these TV stations really believe it? "
"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. It's mainly for the sake of ratings. If you don't do something fancy these days, how can you attract the audience to watch the news?" Hou Xiaoxian smiled and asked about Zhou Yan's new movie, "The preparation for "The Sixth Sense" How's it going? Has the script been reviewed? "
"It's done," Zhou Yan said with a smile. The second revision was successful and the review process went relatively smoothly.
"That's good. If I have time in the summer, I will go to your crew to visit the crew."
"Of course you are welcome." Zhou Yan nodded, and then asked Hou Xiaoxian, ""The Dream of Life" is released. Do you still need to modify the soundtrack for the new version?”
The post-production of "Dream Life" has already been completed, including the soundtrack. This is the easiest job for Zhou Yan, because most of the music used in the movie They all sample traditional operas, and many of them were already planned by Hou Xiaoxian before.
When writing the script, Hou Xiaoxian had already decided on the opera to be used for each scene, but later on when it came time to actually score the music, it was Zhou Yan who checked the samples.
These samples didn’t need to be modified much, and they couldn’t be used to make them look fancy, so apart from the song “If Love Has God’s Will”, Zhou Yan didn’t write a few verses, and “If Love Has God’s Will” was also written by him. It was broken into several pieces and put in the movie.
After the soundtrack was completed last year, Hou Xiaoxian mentioned that the soundtrack might need some adjustments when it is released later, so Zhou Yan asked, so that if changes were to be made, he could prepare in advance.
Hou Xiaoxian said with a smile, "Actually, there is nothing to change. It's just that when it is released, I want to put the song "If Love Has God's Will" at the end of the film and use it as the ending theme of the movie."
< br>"Put the song at the end? Sister Amei's version?" Zhou Yan asked.
He was a little confused. "Dream of Life" is a dialect movie, and all the words in it are Hokkien. If Anita Mui's "If Love Has God's Will" is put in it, it will definitely be incongruous. Is it necessary to record a Hokkien version? Or the Mandarin version?
But whether it is the Hokkien version or the Mandarin version, it is definitely not as harmonious as using the pure music version.
"Anita Mui's version is in Cantonese. It definitely won't work. If I really want to do it, I want to record a Mandarin version."
Hearing what Hou Xiaoxian said, Zhou Yan was very Unexpectedly, Hou Xiaoxian's decision to add the ending theme feels like he is trying to compromise with the market. Is he afraid that no one will come to the cinema to watch the movie, so he wants to use the ending theme to attract the audience?
This is not like Hou Xiaoxian’s style.
If Hou Xiaoxian could really compromise for the sake of the market, he wouldn't have made so many "slow and mediocre" boring films.
In addition, Zhou Yan believes that even if a song is put at the end of the film, it will not attract many viewers to go to the cinema. Even if Anita Mui's version is put on, people do not go to the cinema to listen to music.
Before Zhou Yan could ask, Hou Xiaoxian smiled and said, "It's just an idea, and it may not be implemented. Let's wait and see next month... By the way, will you follow Chen Kaige and the others next month? Let’s go to Cannes together?”
Zhou Yan said with a smile, “Why should I join them as a music director?”
This year’s Cannes International Film Festival will be held in the middle of next month. held, "Farewell My Concubine" has been shortlisted, and Xu Feng and Chen Kaige will definitely attend.
This matter has nothing to do with Zhou Yan at all, and the Cannes Film Festival does not have a soundtrack award.
"It's okay. If you have time, you can come with me."
"Dream Life" has also been shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival, and Hou Xiaoxian will also go there by then.
"Come with you, I'm still a music director." Zhou Yan laughed, "I hope you all get big awards in the past, and I can get some credit at least."
" Actually, it doesn’t matter if I win an award or not, I mainly want to watch other movies.”
Zhou Yan definitely didn't believe Hou Xiaoxian's words. Hou Xiaoxian's pursuit of the three majors was no less vigorous than Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou.
On the other hand, Zhou Yan himself has no special plot for the three major film festivals. If he is asked to choose between the movie box office and the film festival award, he will definitely choose the box office.
And the types of movies he makes do not meet the standards of the three major movies. Whether it is "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" or "The Sixth Sense", there is no way to win awards in the three major movies. .
Previously, "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" was not submitted for selection, because if it participated in the three major film festivals, it would have to premiere at a film festival, which would greatly affect the film's release plan.
After chatting with Hou Xiaoxian for a few more words, Zhou Yan hung up the phone and continued drawing the storyboard for "The Sixth Sense".
After lunch, Zhou Yan asked Jiang Xia to send him to the crew office. Today he made an appointment with Wang Xiaoshuai and Dong Wenmiao to discuss costume design in the crew office.
When he arrived at the office, Zhou Yan found Wang Xiaoshuai sitting in front of the computer, typing quickly with his fingers flying.
Zhou Yan came closer and found that Wang Xiaoshuai was writing a shooting plan.
The shooting plan has been written before. Wang Xiaoshuai probably wanted to enter the shooting plan into the computer for easy saving and transmission in the future.
Although Wang Xiaoshuai’s fingers are very fast, his typing speed is not very fast, mainly because the efficiency value is a bit low. The delete key he presses the most.
Seeing Zhou Yan coming, Wang Xiaoshuai said with a bit of showoff, "Look at my progress."
Zhou Yan also praised, "It's really fast."
"I feel that after a while , I can be faster than you."
"You are humble, I can't compare to you in terms of speed." Zhou Yan smiled, and then asked, "Besides you, there is someone else here today. "?"
Wang Xiaoshuai nodded, "Yes, Li Hong is here, he's next door."
Li Hong is from Yanjing Studio. He previously worked as a set manager in "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly". The young man is very discerning and has solid professional knowledge, so Zhou Yan asked him to come over again this time.
Although there are still more than two months until the filming of the movie, the crew needs to prepare in advance, so the crew will gradually start to be in place in the next period of time.
Li Hong is at Yanjing Studio, very close, so he will come over if he has nothing to do.
“He’s the only one?”
“He’s the only one.”
"Well, I'll go take a look."
Zhou Yan went to the office next door again. Li Hong was playing with the newly arrived computer in the office. Seeing Zhou Yan coming, Li Hong smiled and said hello, "Director Zhou."
"Is there something wrong with this new computer?" Zhou Yan asked.
"No, I'm just doing some research. I usually like to study these machines."
Zhou Yan looked around the office and then asked, "Isn't the factory busy recently? ”
"I'm not busy, because I know I'm about to join the team, so I stopped assigning tasks a long time ago. Now I can join the team directly."
This is thanks to Chen Zhigu, because Zhou Yan is going to film "The Sixth Sense". It’s very generous to give to people.
Zhou Yan nodded, "In a few days, some colleagues from Chang'an will come. Please help pick them up. I will leave you the phone number there. You can contact them in advance in the next two days. "
Li Hong responded very simply, "No problem, have their accommodation been arranged? Do you want me to help them find a place to stay?"
Zhou Yan smiled and waved his hand, "No, Jiang Xia has already arranged a place for them to live. I will ask Jiang Xia to meet you later. Then you just need to pick them up and bring them here. Just come.”
"Okay, I'll go find Sister Xia later."
When they rented an office before, Jiang Xia rented accommodation for the staff, and Liu Qing and the others could move in directly when they came over.
A lot of people are coming to Chang'an Studio this time, Zhao Fei, Liu Qing, Lin Juan, Hong Xin... Zhou Yan asked Jiang Xia to rent a lot of rooms so that Zhao Fei and the others can stay. Be more spacious.
Zhou Yan is not the kind of person who spends money lavishly, but he does not engage in hard work. Within the normal range, he still hopes that everyone can be comfortable.
Besides, you won’t save much money on accommodation. With so many people staying for several months, the money spent may not be as much as the wasted film in one scene.
Some directors are unwilling to spend money on the lives of their staff, but they don't care at all about wasting film when filming, because in their view, the former is a waste and the latter is a sacrifice for art.
Zhou Yan looked at Li Hong and said with a smile, "I remember that you, like Xiaoshuai and the seniors, are all from Yanjing Film Academy, right?"
Li Hong Nodding, "Well, I am from the 86 Photography Department, one year below Senior Brother Xiaoshuai and the others."
"Oh, then you are Zhao Fei's direct junior brother."
" Yes, Senior Brother Zhao Fei has always been our learning partner.”
In fact, Zhou Yan already knew that Li Hong and Zhao Fei were both majoring in photography. The reason why he asked this was to elicit the next words.
"Li Hong, since you majored in photography, have you ever thought about becoming a director or continuing to do photography?"
Li Hong's eyes lit up, "Director Zhou, I'm not afraid of your jokes either. , I think about this every day, but our factory is not short of photographers and directors now.”
The competition in Yanjing Studio is high, and ordinary people can’t get in. After graduation, they can be assigned to direct directly. Those in the office are all lucky or have good backgrounds.
There are many situations where people like Li Hong start taking notes when entering the factory.
Whether Li Hong can become a director in the future depends on his own destiny. If he develops well, he can still climb up step by step starting from the script, then assistant director, director, and slowly shoot his own movies.
Seeing Li Hong's bright eyes, Zhou Yan said with a smile, "Well, if you are willing, you will be the director's assistant from now on. You will be mainly responsible for assisting me and Xiaoshuai. When we pick up the colleagues from Chang'an Factory, After you come here, you first communicate with them about the preparations for the shooting."
The director's assistant...
Li Hong was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately reacted and said with excitement, " Thank you, Director Zhou, for giving me the opportunity. I will work hard and won't let you down."
Zhou Yan smiled and waved, "It's not about who gives the opportunity to whom. I let you be the director's assistant because of you. This person has ability and potential. The job of a director's assistant is not easy, and you can't be careless. Moreover, "The Sixth Sense" is different from "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly," although the script does not look more complicated than the latter. But the difficulty of shooting will increase a lot, as you will know when you see the storyboard later.”
"Don't worry, Director Zhou, I will definitely keep my spirits up."
"Okay, you go ahead and get busy, I'll be there."
"Director Zhou, walk slowly."
When Zhou Yan walked out of their office, Li Hong couldn't help but clenched his fists with excitement on his face. If Zhou Yan's office hadn't been right next to him, he would have even shouted to the sky.
He has been working as a recorder at Yanjing Factory for more than two years. He originally thought that as long as he could do his job conscientiously, he would be able to be promoted, become a director, and eventually shoot his own work.
But in the past two years or so, the few movies and TV series he has participated in have been as set managers or recorders, and there is no hope of promotion.
This time Zhou Yan was filming a new movie, and he came without saying a word. He was also very busy during this period. Whether it was his own work or not, he was very concerned about it.
The reason for this is because he felt that if he wanted to make his own movie, he would have to follow Zhou Yan.
Director Zhou is a young man himself, and he also likes to reuse young people. The two senior brothers, Senior Lu and Wang Xiaoshuai, have also been reused by Director Zhou.
Now Huangtian has paid off, and Zhou Yan finally raised his position.
The stage manager and the director's assistant may seem to be not far apart, but in fact they are worlds apart.
Although the director's assistant is an assistant, he actually belongs to the director's team. This position is exactly the same as the assistant director's sometimes work scope.
This feeling of hard work and finally being rewarded made Li Hong very excited.
......
Zhou Yan knew that Li Hong was very excited, and he also understood Li Hong's excitement. In a place like Yanjing Studio, it is not easy to move up. , even a second-generation director like Chen Kaige only made his first movie at the age of thirty-two.
Xia Gang developed very quickly in the later period, but when he just graduated, there was no quota, so he went to the Municipal Engineering Bureau for a few years before being transferred to Yanjing Studio.
Back in the director's office, Zhou Yan also told Wang Xiaoshuai about Li Hong's transfer as director's assistant.
"From now on, Li Hong will be the director's assistant. You can arrange tasks for him."
Wang Xiaoshuai was not surprised at all that Li Hong was promoted to the director's assistant. He smiled and said, " It’s good. Li Hong is hardworking and smart. Letting him be the director’s assistant can save us a lot of things.”
Wang Xiaoshuai himself is not as good as Li Hong in handling interpersonal relationships, so he knows that he needs it. Li Hong's complement.
"You should also take good care of him. If you want to make a movie later, you don't have to worry about finding an assistant director."
Wang Xiaoshuai was quite moved when Zhou Yan said this. Although Zhou Yan never explicitly said that he would give him He is making a movie, but he has been helping him with practical actions, and even the assistant director has been considered for him.
And what Zhou Yan said makes sense. If he wants to make a movie later, it will be really difficult to find an assistant director. There are only a few people in the circle he knows. Some are not capable, and some are not capable. It's impossible for him to be his assistant director.
Li Hong is indeed a good candidate. Take advantage of this filming of "The Sixth Sense" to cultivate him well. Li Hong can help him a lot later.
“Director Zhou, thank you very much.”
Zhou Yan said with a smile, "Don't thank me in a hurry, you still have to cultivate people by yourself."
"Don't worry about this, even if I don't ask him to be my assistant director in the future, I definitely won't You'll be stingy."
"I'm sure you're not a secretive person."
After a brief chat, Zhou Yan took a newspaper and sat on the sofa to read. I was still busy entering the shooting plan into the computer. About half an hour later, Dong Wenmiao came.
Seeing Dong Wenmiao, Zhou Yan's pupils shrank and his eyelashes trembled.
In mid-April, the weather in Yanjing was still a bit cool. Dong Wenmiao was wearing a pair of narrow-leg jeans, a black long-sleeved V-neck sweater, and a thin floral tie around the neck. A silk scarf and a small brown leather bag.
Teacher Dong is indeed a fashion designer. Every time he matches his clothes, they are just right. Moreover, Dong Wenmiao took off his glasses and put on makeup today, which surprised Zhou Yan.
"Teacher Dong is here." Wang Xiaoshuai greeted him with a smile.
Dong Wenmiao nodded, "It's not too late."
"It's still early." Wang Xiaoshuai smiled and stood up, "I'll ask Li Hong to come over."
After Wang Xiaoshuai left, Zhou Yan said with a smile, "Was the road going smoothly?"
< br>"It's okay." Dong Wenmiao nodded, "I rent it out."
"It's okay, I'll reimburse you. Is the school busy these days?" Zhou Yan said, He walked to the tea table and poured water for Dong Wenmiao, "You sit down."
"It's not busy. Don't worry, it won't delay your movie." Dong Wenmiao walked to the edge of the sofa and sat down, then He took out a small booklet from his bag and said, "These are some sketches I have made recently. Take a look."
Zhou Yan handed the tea cup to Dong Wenmiao with one hand, took the booklet from Dong Wenmiao with the other hand, and then started to read it.
After only turning a few pages, his eyes were full of surprise.
To be honest, Zhou Yan didn't think the costume design of "The Sixth Sense" was very important before. After all, it is a modern drama, and the costumes do not need to be designed, as long as he can find similar clothes.
But in Dong Wenmiao's booklet, every page has a sketch of a piece of clothing, and it also indicates which character in which scene will be used.
This booklet is not big, about the size of a palm, with about twenty or thirty pages. The clothes on each page are different, the male protagonist's, the female protagonist's, the young male protagonist's, and the young male protagonist's mother's clothes.
These clothes are all fashionable, but they are quite unique. They are different from modern popular clothes. Dong Wenmiao also designed a set of school uniforms for the young male protagonist and his school. It is not Western-style, but based on the current popular school uniforms. Made some changes.
Zhou Yan frowned. He thought these clothes were very good and would definitely improve the movie image, but the cost...
Seeing Zhou Yan frown, Dong Wenmiao asked , "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Zhou Yan smiled and shook his head, "Teacher Dong, how long will it take to make these clothes?"
"It won't take long, the movie will be around Isn't the reading held at the end of May? When the actors are here, the costume team will take their measurements and they will definitely be able to do it before finalizing the makeup."
"Well, that's no problem."
"These are sketches. If you have any comments, you can put them forward today, otherwise it will be more troublesome to modify them later."
Zhou Yan nodded He turned his head and looked carefully at the sketches in his hands.
After watching for a while, he walked to sit next to Dong Wenmiao, pointed at one of the pictures and said, "Should the male protagonist's clothes be purple?"
The clothes were not painted. color, but the color is marked.
Dong Wenmiao stretched out her head to look at it, then took out a bunch of color cards from her bag, pointed at one of the color cards and said, "This is the one."
The color card she was referring to was a slightly biased color card. Blue lavender, not quite the same as normal purple.
"Well, this color is good."
"And this one?"
Dong Wenmiao pointed to one of the color cards again, "It's probably this color."
...
The two of them sat next to each other and discussed the brochure for more than ten minutes. Zhou Yan looked up at the door and asked with some confusion, "Why can't Xiaoshuai call someone else?"< br>
Dong Wenmiao didn't pay attention and was still playing with the coloring cards.
Zhou Yan shouted out the door, "Wang Xiaoshuai, Li Hong."
Soon, the voices of two people came from next door.
"Hey, here we come."
In less than five seconds, two people came over.
"Director Dong is here."
Li Hong greeted Dong Wenmiao, and Dong Wenmiao smiled and nodded in response.
Wang Xiaoshuai explained to Zhou Yan, "There is something wrong with Li Hong's computer, and we were just messing around."
Zhou Yan rolled his eyes and said nothing, pointing to the chair next to him, "Sit down, let's listen to Teacher Dong talk about the costume design. Before shooting, we must have an idea of the specific scenery behind it. It also needs to be coordinated with the clothes.”
“Understood.” The two nodded.
Then Dong Wenmiao began to tell them the concept of this costume design.
"This set of clothes is mainly to match the plot of the movie. Although they are all fashionable, the details are also very important. At the beginning of the male protagonist..."
When Wang Xiaoshuai and the others got I know that when Dong Wenmiao designed more than 30 sets of clothes for the movie, they were very surprised. Teacher Dong was so meticulous. This is a fashion movie, not an ancient costume. Every main character's clothes had to be made. So detailed.
According to what Wang Xiaoshuai and the others think, in modern movies, people are almost used to clothes. Sometimes it is okay to just use the actors' own clothes. This not only saves trouble, but also saves money.
Wang Xiaoshuai looked at Dong Wenmiao and then at Zhou Yan. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He felt that there was some confusion between Director Zhou and Teacher Dong.
Teacher Dong treats everyone the same, except when he looks at Zhou Yan, his eyes are different.
After Dong Wenmiao finished speaking, Zhou Yan said, "You two have a look at these sketches drawn by Teacher Dong. If you have any opinions, you can put them forward now."
Li Hongxiao He said, "If fashion design has reached this point, what else can we say? There is no choice anymore."
Wang Xiaoshuai nodded, "I think it's good too, but as a result, the workload of the clothing team will increase a lot, and the cost may also increase."
"Don't worry about this, the cost will not increase. How much, just add one or two more people to the costume team." Zhou Yan waved his hand.
Dong Wenmiao also smiled and said, "I will ask a familiar tailor to help me make it. The price will not be high, and there is no need to add more people to the costume team. That is the troublesome part in the pre-production. During the post-production, the costumes Management doesn’t cost much.”
“Teacher Dong has taken it into consideration, so I won’t have a problem,” Wang Xiaoshuai said.
“If you don’t have any questions, I will perfect it according to these sketches when I go back.”
"No problem."
After the serious chat, a few people chatted for a while. Dong Wenmiao looked at his watch and said, "I still have something to do, I'll leave first."
"How about having dinner together?"
"Next time, it's still early for dinner, by the way." Dong Wenmiao took out two cassette tapes and two CD albums from his backpack.
These are Zhou Yan's music albums "Piano Boy" and "Mysterious Country", each of which is a tape and a CD.
"I have two friends who like your music and asked me to help you sign it."
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "It's a small thing."
He then found a marker pen and signed it on the four sides. He signed his name on the album one by one. After signing, he asked, "Would you like to write some blessings or something?"
Dong Wenmiao thought for a while and said, "How about you Watch and write something.”
“No problem.”
Zhou Yan wrote "Life is like a song" and "Graceful like this" on the two CD albums. After writing, he returned the albums to Dong Wenmiao.
Dong Wenmiao took the album and smiled, "I'm leaving first."
......
After Dong Wenmiao left, Wang Xiaoshuai couldn't help but sigh, " Teacher Dong is really awesome. Can some of the clothes here be made and sold in clothing stores? I think they are more beautiful than the clothes sold in clothing stores now."
Zhou Yan teased him, " When the clothes are made later, why don’t you make one for Xiaoxu?”
He was talking about Wang Xiaoshuai's girlfriend Chen Xiaoxu. When Wang Xiaoshuai went to see Zhou Yan for the first time, Chen Xiaoxu also went there, and Zhou Yan saw him. Later he found out it was Chen Xiaoxu.
I heard that the two almost broke up because Wang Xiaoshuai took on "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly".
Wang Xiaoshuai was a little moved by Zhou Yan's words, "Is this appropriate?"
"Ask Teacher Dong later."
"Yeah."
< br>
...
Zhou Yan stayed in the office until evening, and then ran to the Yanjing Factory opposite to have dinner.
As soon as the aunt who was cooking saw Zhou Yan, she smiled and waved to him, "Xiao Zhou, Xiao Zhou, there are still braised pork."
When Zhou Yan heard that there was still braised pork, he He leaned over, and then the aunt gave Zhou Yan a big spoonful of braised pork.
When Zhou Yan sat down opposite Chen Kaige with a plate, the guy's eyes widened, "What kind of ecstasy soup did you pour into Sister Xu? Your spoonful of meat is twice as much as mine."
"If you praise others when you have nothing to do, won't you have meat to eat?"
Chen Kaige curled his lips, "Being able to praise others is useful, but you have to have a face like yours."
Zhou Yan He smiled and said, "There's nothing I can do about it, I'm born with it."
"Why did you come to the factory for dinner today? Is the new movie about to start filming?" Chen Kaige asked curiously.
"No, there is still some time. I made an appointment with Teacher Dong today to talk about clothing, so I stopped by."
Chen Kaige raised his head and looked around, "Where is Director Dong?"
"She has gone back beforehand."
"Oh, you don't want to let me have a meal either."
< br>"Didn't I tell you that she has something to do? What have you been busy with these two days? You are going to Cannes to accept the award in a while. Are you excited?"
A smile appeared on Chen Kaige's face unconsciously, Then he said sternly, "What's the point of accepting an award? There are so many shortlisted films, and we may not have a chance, so don't talk nonsense."
"It's rare that you are so humble."
"Look at what you said, I have always been quite humble." Chen Kaige smiled and suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "Do you and Director Teng have any relationship? What's the holiday?"
Zhou Yan's face remained unchanged and he asked, "Why do you say this suddenly?"
"I feel like this"
Zhou Yan said with a smile. "You also have a sixth sense. Don't think nonsense. Director Teng is an old man. I respect him very much. How can there be any trouble? Don't say this. Director Teng has been transferred to your factory and he will still have to control you in the future. , if he hears you talking about him behind your back, I’ll give you some shoes to wear.”
"Tsk, tsk, you said it's not a holiday. When have you said that to others? Don't mess with him. He is now the vice president of the Directors Guild."
The Chinese Film Directors Guild was just established last year. Organization, its members are all senior directors.
The first annual meeting of the Film Directors Guild has not actually been held yet, which means that the leadership structure has not been finalized. However, Teng Wenji is considered the vice president, but he has not been officially appointed.
It’s hard to say how much power this Film Directors Association has, but after all, they are an organization approved and registered by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and they are official.
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "He is from the Directors Guild, but I am not. He still has no control over me."
"You don't want to join the association?" Chen Kaige asked.
“I don’t have that time. You know me, I’m usually very busy. I don’t have so much time to join any association.”
“Your situation is still different from ours.” Chen Kaige said with emotion.
“Some time ago, someone from the Yanjing Writers’ Association contacted me and invited me to join their Writers’ Association, but I haven’t even responded yet.”
Chen Kaige rolled his eyes: “So, talking about people It’s so irritating, we don’t have so many ways to go, we can only look at other people’s faces every day.”
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "You are just complaining for no reason. In the Yanjing factory, Teng Wenji would not dare to offend you."
Chen Kaige, like Tian Zhuangzhuang, both grew up in the factory. Chen Kaige's father, Chen Huaikai, He is a meritorious director in the factory, and Tian Zhuangzhuang's father, Tian Fang, is the first director of the factory.
No one dares to offend the two of them in the factory.
Chen Kaige shook his head, "It's not as easy as you think."
