157. Chapter 156 The Distant Journey


When Zhou Yan returned from taking the flute, Yu Hua and Shi Tiesheng were each holding a cucumber and chewing on it.

“You went...to borrow cucumbers again?”

“How can I do that in broad daylight?” Yu Hua pointed to the bamboo basket on top of the stone mill next to him, “It’s from the kitchen. "The master sent it."

Zhou Yan walked over and stretched his head to take a look. Indeed, there were about seven or eight cucumbers in the bamboo basket, and they looked washed.

"How can the people in the kitchen bring cucumbers?" Zhou Yan asked doubtfully.

However, his hand unconsciously touched the inside of the basket and selected the longest and greenest one.

"Director Wu should have told people that Yu Hua is interested in cucumbers." Shi Tiesheng said.

Yesterday during lunch and dinner, Yu Hua asked about cucumbers. Seeing that Wu Ziniu was interested in cucumbers, he asked the chef to purchase more and delivered them to Yu Hua and the others.

Yu Hua gnawed half of the cucumber in his hand, and then said, "But there is one thing to say. Although the cucumbers here are relatively original, but in terms of deliciousness, the cucumbers on the edge of the North Third Ring Road are the most delicious. ."

"Beside the North Third Ring Road?"

Yu Hua nodded, "Well, there is a large piece of farmland right next to the Yanjing Studio. The cucumbers they have there are really delicious."

Next to the Yanjing Studio... Zhou Yan hesitated. At the corner of his mouth, if he remembered correctly, the fields there should belong to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. Good guy, Yu Hua even stole the cucumbers grown by the Academy of Agricultural Sciences?

How vicious.

Yu Hua finished chewing a cucumber, clapped his hands, and asked Zhou Yan, "What music are you playing for us today? This is our first time hearing your solo."

Zhou Yan He jumped on the stone mill next to him and sat down, "I'll talk about it after I finish eating."

Yu Hua nodded, dragged a wooden stake from the side to serve as a bench and sat down, then stared at the general in the distance.

Jiangjuntuo is not a high mountain, but it has many ridges. Coupled with the blue sky, white clouds and morning sunshine, it is refreshing and refreshing. Occasionally, a few birds fly out of the mountain forest, chirping and circling around. Then flew away.

Where Zhou Yan and the others are, there is a large field between Jiangjun Tuo. There are already villagers working in the field. Wu Ziniu and the others are at the west end, about forty or fifty meters away from here. Discussing how to shoot the next scene.

After chewing the cucumber in his hand, Zhou Yan first tried the flute in his hand.

The quality of this flute is really average, but there is an advantage to the poor quality, that is, it doesn’t hurt. There are a few good flutes in the Siheyuan, but they are all kept in boxes and are not used often.

On the other hand, these low-quality flutes can be thrown into the trunk casually, and it doesn't matter if they break.

In fact, according to Zhou Yan's current net worth, you don't need to cherish a flute worth several hundred yuan. Even if you change one every day, it won't cost much. But this thing is not just about money. Seeing a good flute broken , Zhou Yan will feel distressed no matter what.

After a brief try, Zhou Yan started to play formally.

The first song he played was "Forever Together". He had been revising the score of this piece in the past two days and was familiar with it, so he played it casually.

The song "Forever Together" is very suitable to be played solo on the flute, and the melody is melodious and relaxed, which fits the pleasant scenery in front of me very well.

Yu Hua and the others had all heard "Forever Together", but this was the first time they heard the bamboo flute solo, and they all found it unique.

Listening to the music and looking at General Tuo in front of him, Shi Tiesheng suddenly had a sentence in his mind: "If the sun rises, the forest will bloom, and the clouds will return and the cave will be dark." When the sun rises, the fog disperses, the clouds are empty, the bamboos The notes floating out of the flute float leisurely along with the ridge of Jiangjuntuo, making the already beautiful scenery even more interesting.

Just now Yu Hua said that the scenery in front of him lacked music. Shi Tiesheng didn't feel much about it. But when the sound of the bamboo flute really sounded, this feeling suddenly emerged.

Music is really a magical thing. It alone can express emotions and cause inner resonance, and when it is put together with other things, it can always produce wonderful reactions.

The villagers working in the fields rarely heard the sound of silk and bamboo. Now they suddenly heard the melodious sound of bamboo flutes. They stopped working one after another, holding hoes or shovels, and looked at Zhou Yan and the others. direction.

There are actually musicians in their village. There is an old scholar in the west of the village who likes to play the erhu.

The old scholar is not a real scholar. He just studied in high school for two years and is considered a cultural person in the village, so he got the nickname "Old Scholar".

This old scholar has not been able to play the erhu since he was a child. He has only learned it for a few years and usually can only play a few pieces of music. But in the eyes of the villagers, he is already a musician.

As for the bamboo flute, most villagers have only seen it on TV.

The straight-line distance from Tiananmen here is only more than 30 kilometers, but it is a completely different world from the city.

Another magical thing about music is that it is highly tolerant. Even ordinary people who are not usually exposed to music can still resonate when they hear the music played by Zhou Yan.

Wu Ziniu and the others, who were leading people to set up the scene, heard the sound of music and looked towards the east end of the village. Many people in the crew knew that Zhou Yan was a musician, but not many people had seen Zhou Yan's performance. Even Wu Ziniu I only listened to the tapes on the radio.

Assistant director Xu Zhiyan said with a smile, "You are blessed because you can hear Director Zhou's live performance. I heard that one ticket for his concert can cost several hundred yuan."

Ge You said, "Isn't that right? We made hundreds of oceans early in the morning. When we heard the sound of the flute, we felt completely comfortable."

"It's not enough to go to the concert." It’s rare, because you can still listen to it if you have money, but it’s very rare to hear Zhou’s performance in the mountains and fields, and you can’t hear it even if you have money.”

"It's true."

The venue manager Xiao Liu said, "This song is similar to Anita Mui's "Stay with Me"."

"This song is "Forever Together", Anita Mui's song "Stay with Me" was adapted from this song," Chen Hong said.

Wu Ziniu glanced at Chen Hong and said, "Xiao Chen, you know it quite well."

"I have listened to all the songs directed by Zhou." Chen Hong was a little shy when speaking. Little pride.

Wu Ziniu clapped his hands and said, "Everyone listen to Director Zhou's performance, don't delay the work at hand, come on, get moving."

No one in the crew needed to ask him to do anything, and everyone in the crew did not delay the work at hand. On the contrary, because I heard the music, I felt much more relaxed when doing my work.

While others were working, Wu Ziniu pulled the deputy director Xu Zhiyan and said, "Go and ask Yang Wei to turn on the machine."

Xu Zhiyan was stunned for a moment and said doubtfully, "On site It will take some time to prepare. Are you going to start it up so early?"

Wu Ziniu pointed in the direction of Zhou Yan, "Let Yang Wei go and film Director Zhou playing the flute."

Xu Zhiyan understood immediately, "Okay, I'll tell Yang Wei right now."

Xu Zhiyan then ran to find photographer Yang Wei.

When the second piece of music played, Ge You asked Chen Hong, "What is the name of this piece?"

Chen Hong was not stumped, "This piece is "Nightingale" "."

"Profit." Ge You gave a thumbs up.

Every time a new song appeared, Ge You would ask Chen Hong, and Chen Hong would always answer correctly.

......

After Zhou Yan played four pieces of music in a row, he put down his flute and asked Yu Hua, "Do you want to listen to new music?"

Yu Hua was immersed in the music in front of him. Amidst the scenery and the melodious sound of the flute, when Zhou Yan said this, he said with bright eyes, "Do you have any new songs?"

"Well, it just came out in the past two days and has not been played in public yet. ." Zhou Yan said.

"That's good, let's listen first."

Zhou Yan didn't say anything else, took a deep breath, then raised his bamboo flute and played a new tune.

As soon as this piece of music started, Yu Hua was shocked. The new piece was a little different from the ones Zhou Yan played just now. It was full of history from the beginning, as if it was the aftertaste of the Han and Tang Dynasties. Time has come to this mountain and forest.

A long sigh hovered among the clouds along with the sound of the flute.

Yu Hua looked at Zhou Yan. He was clearly right in front of him, but because of the sound of the flute, it made people feel that he was far away in the clouds.

On the other side, Ge You asked Chen Hong again, "What is the name of this piece of music?"

Chen Hong shook his head blankly, "I don't know."

"Don't know?" Ge You He smiled and said, "It seems that not everyone knows Director Zhou's music. This music gives people a sense of historical vicissitudes, grandeur and sadness."

"I feel the same way." Chen Hong nodded.

While Wu Ziniu looked at the storyboard in his hand, he also paid half of his attention to Zhou Yan's song.

Before, he had only heard that Zhou Yan was very good in music, but now that he has seen it with his own eyes, the feeling is completely different. No matter how great the soundtrack in the movie is, the first thing that comes to his mind is the scene of the movie. Unlike now, Zhou Yan is right there with them. Not far away, the impact of the picture far exceeds that of a movie.

After Zhou Yan finished playing the music, Yu Hua clapped and asked, "What is the name of this music?"

"A distant journey."

Yu Hua He said with some regret, "It's a good name, and the music is really nice. It's a pity that I didn't bring my Walkman. Otherwise, I would record a version and listen to it later."

"It's okay, I will lead the orchestra in a while. Rehearse this piece and you can listen to it when the time comes. If you want to take it back to listen to it, I will just record a version for you. It will definitely be better than what you recorded on your Walkman.”

Yu Hua waved his hand and said, "That's different. Although the effect in the concert hall is good, the artistic conception cannot be compared with what is in front of you, and this is still your solo." Are memories precious?" Shi Tiesheng said.

"I think this is a fallacy." Yu Hua curled his lips, and then saw Zhou Yan putting away the flute and asked, "Is it over?"

"Well, it's over." Zhou Yan nodded.

Yu Hua raised his head and sighed, "I didn't hear enough."

Zhou Yan thought for a moment and raised the flute again, "I can give you a piece of music."

"Give me a piece of music?"

"Well, the last piece of music is specially for you. It’s for you.”

“Is there such a good thing?”

Zhou Yan smiled, said nothing, and started to blow.

This piece of music is quite pleasant at first. It sounds like flowing water on a small bridge or a chat in the village.

The first verse ends, and by the second verse, the tune becomes brisk and joyful, with a little bit of expectation and excitement. It feels like a young man going to see his beloved.

The mood in the third episode changed again. There was no hope or joy, but the excitement was raised to a higher level. It was like a young couple being caught by their parents during a tryst. The boy ran away in a panic, and the people listening also Feel your heartbeat speeding up.

Finally, I ran away. The fourth section has a feeling of rebirth after a disaster, and the tune becomes relaxed again.

This piece is very short, only two or three minutes, but it is rich in emotion and complete.

If compared to a novel, the story is complete with the beginning of the first paragraph, the development of the second paragraph, the climax of the third paragraph, and the end of the fourth paragraph.

After the song ended, Yu Hua applauded, "Yes, yes, in this song, I can hear the confusion, excitement and worry about gains and losses of a young couple when they are dating. It is beautiful, it is really beautiful." . I suddenly remembered that when I was in middle school, a girl in my class gave me a note. The note was folded in many layers. It took me more than 20 minutes to open it because I was afraid of breaking the paper. The piece was torn into pieces, and some beautiful words were missed..."

Yu Hua vividly talked about his ignorant feelings in middle school, because he felt that the song just now was about love.

Actually, what Yu Hua shared cannot be regarded as a love story. A girl in his class handed him a note. The content was just to accuse Yu Hua of borrowing her book and not keeping it well. This time, he forgave Yu. Birch or something like that.

After sharing the story, Yu Hua asked Zhou Yan enthusiastically, "What is the name of this piece of music?"

Zhou Yan said calmly, "Steal the cucumber."

"..."

"..."

Not only Yu Hua was stunned, but Shi Tiesheng was also caught off guard. They were completely Unexpectedly, Zhou Yan composed a song for stealing cucumbers last night.

This is a bit outrageous.

Especially Yu Hua, he was completely embarrassed. Fortunately, he had just vividly described his ignorance in middle school. He thought this song was about love, but he didn't expect it to be this.

But if you think about it carefully, this song does perfectly describe the whole process of them stealing cucumbers last night, and it is from Yu Hua's perspective.

At first they were playing cards, very leisurely and comfortable, but later Yu Hua went to steal porn, and he must have been filled with anticipation and joy.

When he stole the cucumber and heard the barking of the dog, he was so frightened that he ran away, and then he spent the rest of his life enjoying the fruits of victory.

Shi Tiesheng shook his head and sighed, "It's nothing to write an article with a pen to curse people. It's really powerful to curse people with music. The key is that some people are scolded and don't know it."


Yu Hua spread his hands and said, "I just went to borrow a cucumber. This is not my fault."

Zhou Yan followed his advice and said, "Then change the name to "Borrowing a Cucumber"."
< br>Shi Tiesheng nodded seriously, "Well, with this change, I suddenly feel like there is no silver 300 taels here."

The three of them were chatting, Xu Zhiyan and Yang Wei came over.

"Director Zhou, we have already recorded your performance just now." Zhou Yan said in surprise, "Did you record us just now?"

"Well, Director Wu felt that the scene was rare, so he asked us to record it."

Zhou Yan sighed, it was indeed easy to go from frugality to luxury. Wu Ziniu, who saves film, shot After being wealthy for a while, I was even willing to waste film to shoot behind-the-scenes footage.

Yu Hua glanced at the camera, "Are the songs played by Zhou Yan just now also recorded?"

Xu Zhiyan nodded and said, "Well, we have pickup, and the live music is all Recorded simultaneously.”

"Okay, bring me a copy of this video. I'll go back..." Yu Hua suddenly remembered that he didn't have a video recorder at home, and even if he had a video tape, he couldn't play it.

Xu Zhiyan said with a smile: "We can't give this now. We have to wash and cut it when we go back. After we finish it, we will make a few copies."

"Well, you can finish it when you go back. , just give it to me," Zhou Yan said.

“Okay.”

“Oh, is the last piece of music I played recorded?” Zhou Yan asked again.

"Well, it's all recorded."

"That's good."

Not long after Xu Zhiyan and the others left, Chen Hong came over again and said, "Director Zhou, the last two songs Is it a new song?"

Zhou Yan nodded, "Well, what's wrong?"

When Chen Hong heard that it was indeed a new song, she shook her head, "It's nothing, it's just from before. I’ve never heard of it. I’ve listened to both of your albums many times and I thought it must be a new song.”

In fact, Zhou Yan has many songs that were not included in those two albums, such as the songs written for movies such as "Three Kingdoms" and "Farewell My Concubine", as well as songs like "Morning·First Snow·Red Sun" and "Eternal Night" , "Flow·Wind" and other songs.

If all his songs were made into an album, ten of them wouldn't fit in.

Chen Hong then expressed her feelings about these two pieces of music. When talking about "Distant Journey", she said she heard a sense of historical vicissitudes, which is actually quite relevant.

When it came to the second song, she said, "The last song made me feel a kind of pure love, passionate and hesitant..."

She said it very seriously, and Zhou Yan and Shi Tiesheng couldn't bear it Yu Hua couldn't help but smile, but his expression was very strange.

Seeing the expressions of Zhou Yan and the others, Chen Hong asked doubtfully, "Director Zhou, am I right?"

Zhou Yan waved his hand, "There is nothing wrong with a piece of music, everyone can have their own Feelings are what you hear, and you and Yu Hua feel the same."

"Really?" Chen Hong looked at Yu Hua, "Brother Yu Hua and I have the same view. ?”

Yu Hua tugged at the corner of his mouth and said, “Well, that’s about it.”

Chen Hong smiled and said, “I don’t know much about music, so I’m just talking based on my first impression. ”

"Well, you feel very good." Zhou Yan nodded, and then said, "This is an improvised piece of music that I will put into the concert program in the future."

I heard that Zhou Yan is going to Putting "Borrowing Cucumber" into the concert program, Yu Hua's expression became even stranger, and the smile on Shi Tiesheng's face became even brighter.

Chen Hong was very interested in the concert, "Director Zhou, are you going to hold a concert again?"

"Well, I am planning to go to Neon to hold a few shows, and I am preparing now. . ”

“Wow, going abroad is awesome.”

Chen Hong's skill in flattering people is very average, and she is not even qualified to carry Zhou Yan's shoes, but she is a beauty, which is her natural advantage. She doesn't need any flattering words, she just needs to say "You are so awesome" with a pure expression. It can make most men happy.

No wonder Chen Kaige likes Chen Hong. People like Chen Hong are a big killer for Chen Kaige.

......

After watching the scenery with Yu Hua and the others for a while, Zhou Yan went to see Wu Ziniu and the others' on-site shooting. This morning's plot followed yesterday's morning shooting, and Yao wanted to finish it. Shizi was held down by other people in the same village, and then the villagers took him to the village chief's house and said he was crazy.

After the morning filming was completed, I had a quick meal at noon, and then the afternoon filming began.

Until the evening, when the whole scene was over, Wu Ziniu arranged a final ceremony for Zhou Yan and the three of them.

The closing banquet was skipped because it was getting late, so Zhou Yan and the others hurried back to the city.

Although the straight-line distance is not far, it will take an estimated two hours to send Yu Hua and Shi Tiesheng home.

On the way back, Yu Hua kept mumbling about the song "Borrowing Cucumber". He resented Zhou Yan deeply for adding this song to the program of the neon concert.

Shi Tiesheng found it very interesting, and said that apart from the movie "Alive", this is the most promising time for Yu Hua to go abroad.

Yu Hua said that he did not want to go abroad in this way.

......

On Monday morning, Zhou Yan went to Ganjiakou. The crew rented many houses in the nearby community, some of which were provided for the crew to live in, and a few for use. During the filming, the male protagonist and the young male protagonist’s homes were arranged here.

Zhou Yan came here today mainly to look at the scenery.

Zhou Yan has already designed most of the settings for the male protagonist and the young male protagonist’s home. When he was drawing the storyboard, he roughly sketched the scenery. Now Liu Qing and the others are here, and Zhou Yan is Just make modifications based on the drawing.

When Zhou Yan arrived at the scene, Liu Qing was leading people to clean the room.

Liu Qing was very happy to see Zhou Yan, "They are all talking about when they can meet the director."

This time, all the people who came from Chang'an Factory with Liu Qing were He was an acquaintance of Zhou Yan, the previous team member from the filming of "Antfly". Except for Zhao Fei and the lighting engineer, everyone else had already arrived.

Actually, Liu Qing and the others can come over later. The filming will start in late June and a reading meeting will be held at the end of May. They can wait until late May to come over. The preliminary work for "The Sixth Sense" is not complicated. One month in advance is enough.

However, Liu Qing and the others at Chang'an Factory have no other projects to be busy with recently, and it is impossible to enter other new projects at this time, so they simply came here.

The main reason is that Liu Qing and Jiang Mengfei are in a hurry. When Zhou Yan was filming "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly", they were not able to come because they were on other crews. They have been talking about it, so they came to the crew of "The Sixth Sense" this time. They are all in a hurry.

Zhou Yan gave Liu Qing a cigarette and said, "You have just arrived, so there is no need to be in such a hurry. You can rest for two days."

"That won't work, you still have to get things done first. , anyway, we are not tired. The early design of the set is one thing, and the final effect is another. If you do it in advance, you can leave more time for revision. ”

Zhou Yan nodded. It must be a good thing to prepare early. He asked again, "Where is Mengfei?"

"This guy is in the crew office, discussing props with Director Wang and others. Today He probably won’t come over.”

"I'll spare my time today. If you come over, I won't pick you up. I'll treat you all to a meal tonight, and just treat it like I'm here to pick you up."

"Hey, why did we do this before? You're welcome."

Zhou Yan said with a smile, "It's been a while, and you don't want to have a meal with me."

Liu Qing also laughed, "That's what you want to say. , then you must eat this meal tonight. You are now a wealthy person, so I don’t have any psychological burden at all.” Finish it early and tell Mengfei and Xiaojuan about the meal. You can gather in the crew office in the evening and I will inform you of the place for the meal later.”

"No problem, I'll work first."

"You guys work first, I'll go around the neighborhood." Zhou Yan nodded, said hello to a few other people, and left.

When Zhou Yan left the room, the steward Hong Ben came up to Liu Qing and sighed, "Zhou Yan is still the same as before, without any airs."

"I want to call him Director Zhou." Liu Qing reminded.

“Yes, yes, I made a mistake.”

Only then did Liu Qing light the cigarette that Zhou Yan had just given him, and then said with a smile, "Director Zhou has no airs with us, but we can't handle it ourselves. He respects us because he is well-educated, and we must also respect him. "

He not only said this, but also did it because he knew that Zhou Yan did not smoke, so he did not light up the cigarette in front of Zhou Yan.

Although Liu Qing looks rough, he is very considerate. The key to getting along with others is to meet his appetite. If he does not like his appetite, he will not look good, but if he likes his appetite, he will Can dig out the heart and lungs.

Hong Ben nodded and said, "Brother Liu is right, Director Zhou respects us, and we must also respect him."

Liu Qing puffed out his smoke and said, "The best respect is , We still have to do things well. This time Director Zhou specially transferred us from Chang'an Factory, which is also our opportunity. We must try our best to help him do things well, at least not to delay him. "

"I understand this."

Although filming behind Zhou Yan may not be of much help to their promotion in the factory, the treatment will be much better than in other crews. Previously, they filmed "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" 》, in addition to salary, everyone received additional subsidies.

Because these subsidies are not included in wages and are given privately, they do not need to be turned over to the factory.

Most of the people behind the scenes don’t have much room for advancement. Many of them may work in a handyman position until retirement, like Liu Qing, who has been in the factory for so many years, and his position is basically Untouched.

So being able to get financial subsidies is the most attractive to them.

The key point is that this kind of "extra money" is legitimate and there is no need to worry about it.

......

After wandering around the community for a while, Zhou Yan went to tell Jiang Xia to find a table at a nearby restaurant.

“How many people are there?” Jiang Xia asked.

Zhou Yan was not sure how many people there were, mainly because he didn't know if anyone from the Yanjing factory had come over in the past few days.

"Go and ask Li Hong."

"Okay."

After handing the matter over to Jiang Xia, Zhou Yan went to Yanjing Studio and met with Senior Lu again one side.

Xu Feng has read the script of "Grown Up". She is very interested in it and is willing to fund the filming with Yanjing Studio.

Xu Feng knows that it is difficult to make money in "Grown Up". Although she does not make movies to make money, she will not waste money casually. The reason why she is so happy is because of Zhou Yan.

The income brought to Tomson by "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" has far exceeded Xu Feng's initial expectations.

This film, which cost only a few million, has earned Tomson more than 20 million so far, not including the income from subsequent video tapes and TV screening rights.

So for Xu Feng, investing one or two million to help Senior Lu make a movie is nothing.

In fact, even if "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" did not make so much money for Tomson, as long as Zhou Yan was really optimistic about "Grown Up", Xu Feng would be willing to invest in it. She believed in Zhou Yan's vision.

Just like she believes in Chen Kaige, even if "Farewell My Concubine" does not do well at the box office, she will continue to believe in Chen Kaige, because what she wants is not the box office, but to really make a good movie.

Senior Lu also knew that Tang Chen was able to invest in his script entirely because of Zhou Yan's help.

So he was very grateful to Zhou Yan, "Zhou Yan, thank you so much for helping me so much."

Senior Lu was in poor health. After major surgery, although his body recovered, But the whole person still has no energy. Although he said words of gratitude, he was very calm, as if he was in standby mode.

Zhou Yan also pays more attention to his body, "How do you feel now? If your body can't bear it, you can postpone the filming of the movie."

"It's okay. , I am like this now, and I will be like this no matter how long I put it off. Unlike you, I can't fight, so I can only take my time. I have been writing the script of "Grown Up" for a long time, and the subsequent filming will probably take a long time. .”

"It doesn't matter. You can take your time and shoot. But for this co-production, Tomson will not provide any technical support except money. The personnel and equipment are all produced by your factory," Zhou Yan said.

"I know this. It depends on whether Director Chen can approve the project later."

Zhou Yan smiled, "What do you have to worry about? Could it be that Director Chen can You have to provide people and equipment, so do you push the money out? "

Co-productions do not occupy the shooting quota of the studio, so there is almost no pressure on the studio. They only need to consider the personnel and equipment arrangements in the factory. That's it.

“You should ask more people in the factory this time. The same goes for the machines. It won’t be a problem if the shooting takes a little longer.”

"Wouldn't this delay the plans in the factory?"

"You will worry about others, so worry about your own affairs first. You also know that you are not in good health. If you don't get more people, you Do you have to rely on your own body to survive?"

Senior Lu was also convinced by Zhou Yan, "What you said makes sense, my body can't survive."

"Hey, that's it. By the way, making a movie is like fighting a war. You have to know how to ask for a gun from the leader. Now you have obtained two million in filming funds for the factory. There is nothing embarrassing about asking for a gun from the person in the factory. Think, if Tomson trusts you so much, you can’t let Mr. Xu down, right?”

“I understand”

Seeing that Senior Lu was enlightened, Zhou Yan said with a smile, "Our crew is having a dinner tonight, and there are many people from your factory. You can go there too, and everyone will be familiar with each other. When you make a movie later, it will be simpler."

"Okay, I'll go there tonight." (End of Chapter)
