Chapter 500 Hairstyle
【6Q1】
Entrance to Huairou Film and Television City.
In a few minutes, the guests would start to arrive. Chen Kaige and Chen Hong finally finished their busy work and stood side by side at the gate, waiting to welcome the first few waves of distinguished guests.
In order to appear less nervous, Chen Kaige took the initiative to hold Chen Hong's hand and asked with concern, "Why are you a little absent-minded today? When you were strolling around the movie city with Han Sanping earlier, you kept touching your hair?"
Hearing Chen Kaige being called, Chen Hong's heart skipped a beat. The reason why she touched her hair absentmindedly just now was naturally because she was reminded of something else when she saw him.
Seeing Xu Kun following Han Sanping, she couldn't help but think of Jiang Wenli's previous test.
During this period, she wanted to cut off these "troublesome hairs" and those messy thoughts several times, but she could never make up her mind.
Now that she was suddenly asked by Chen Kaige, she panicked for a moment, but soon calmed down and shook her head, saying, "First, I'm a little tired these past two days, and second, my hair always feels a little out of place, so I want to find an opportunity to cut it... and restyle it."
When the time came, she finally made the opposite choice.
After saying this, Chen Hong felt both relieved and as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders.
Chen Kaige had no idea that his wife had struggled internally countless times in such a short period of time, and he didn't even notice Chen Hong's temporary change of words.
Then he patted Chen Hong's hand gently and said with a smile, "You have been really hard-working recently. When I have time, I will accompany you to get your hair done."
Chen Hong rolled her eyes at him and said, "We're about to go on a roadshow, how can we have the time to go to America? Besides, you won't be able to sit still if you go there, and you won't be able to hold on for long before you find all kinds of excuses. It's better for me to be alone and have some peace and quiet."
At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside, and it was obvious that the guests had started to enter.
Chen Kaige didn't have time to show affection with Chen Hong anymore, and casually said, "Okay, okay, it's up to you, it's up to you, you can get your hair done whenever you want."
Chen Hong lowered her eyes slightly, trying to suppress the complicated emotions in her heart, and cheered herself up to greet and see off guests together with Chen Kaige.
At about 7:22, Gu Changwei and Jiang Wenli came together. After a few greetings, Jiang Wenli pulled Chen Hong aside.
Without saying anything, he just stared at Chen Hong's slightly curly long hair and smiled.
Chen Hong was embarrassed and annoyed by the laughter, and was afraid that Jiang Wenli would say something unpleasant, so she hurriedly asked, "Where is your goddaughter? Why don't you bring her here for me to see? Are you afraid of meeting people?"
"She is filming in the Magic City."
Jiang Wenli smiled and said, "And you've seen her before. Do you remember Yahoo Star Search in 06? She was the champion in Feng Xiaogang's group."
"Is it that carefree country girl?"
Chen Hong recalled the impression Zhao Liying left on her at that time, and couldn't help shaking her head and said, "This circle is really tireless in destroying people. No matter how good a girl is, she will be covered in mud after rolling around in it."
Jiang Wenli disagreed: "This is still good, it's better than those people who were ruined but didn't get any benefits."
As they were talking, Feng Xiaogang arrived with Xu Fan.
Chen Kaige did not attend the premiere of "Assembly", but Feng Xiaogang would come to support Chen Kaige almost every time he saw a movie.
Because of the arrival of these two people, Xu Kun also took the initiative to come over and chat with them. Feng Xiaogang was a little embarrassed at first, but after being pinched secretly by Xu Fan, he also laughed it off.
At this time, Gu Changwei took the initiative to invite Xu Kun aside. Others didn't know what the relationship between these two people was, but Chen Hong knew it very clearly.
He immediately pulled Jiang Wenli, who was about to greet Xu Fan, and whispered, "Aren't you afraid that they will fight?"
Seeing that Jiang Wenli was pouting and seemed to take it totally unimportant, she simply pulled Jiang Wenli over and quietly moved over.
As soon as he got nearby, he saw Gu Changwei holding Xu Kun's hand and saying expressionlessly, "Thank you for what you did last time."
Xu Kun replied somewhat uncomfortably: "No need to thank me, I'm just going with the flow."
Seeing this scene, Chen Hong was dumbfounded.
You still need to say thank you?!
When they came to their senses, Xu Kun and Gu Changwei returned to the group of directors. This time, in addition to Chen Kaige and Feng Xiaogang, there were also Jiang Wen and Zhang Yimou.
Chen Hong turned to look at Jiang Wenli suspiciously: "Director Gu, don't you know yet?"
"How can it be!"
Jiang Wenli sneered: "Do you think I'm like you, hiding things? Even if I want to cheat, I'm going to do it in a big way!"
"Pah~ Then why don't you go to the radio station to promote it?!"
Chen Hong showed disdain on her face, but secretly felt envious in her heart. If she were in the same situation, she wouldn't dare to tell Chen Kaige that they should just play their own games.
the other side.
Because of Jiang Wen's participation, the originally somewhat strange atmosphere suddenly became much more harmonious.
Jiang Wen put her arm around Xu Kun's shoulders in a familiar manner, and kept talking: "If you ask me, your movie is good in other aspects, but it should have some more metaphors! It doesn't have to be too many, just a little bit will do, the kind that makes people think they understand it after watching it for the first time, and understand it again after watching it again. It would be best if they can discover something new every time they watch it, so that the judges will think you are awesome!"
"Teacher Jiang."
Xu Kun said innocently, "Every director has his own style. I'm a relatively honest person and I don't come up with so many twists and turns."
"Are you still honest?"
Jiang Wen glared and said, "Which media is talking nonsense? Tell me and I'll sue them for defamation!" "Xingxiang Daily."
Xu Kun blurted out a name without blinking: "The largest Chinese newspaper in Thailand said I am the most honest foreign director. All the transvestites in Bangkok can testify to this."
Jiang Wen was speechless at first, then she patted his shoulder and laughed, "Okay, you are quite like me back then. We can work together if we have a chance in the future. I will then create a role for you that is unprecedented and will let you experience what it means to keep seeing something new."
When Xu Kun heard this, he remembered "Let the Bullets Fly", a movie he had never seen but had heard people praise it many times, and he began to be interested.
But what Xu Kun didn't know was that Jiang Wen in the original time and space fooled Hu Jun in this way, and as a result, Hu Jun was dragged in to play the "fake Zhang Mazi", with only a few minutes of scenes in total, and then he was killed in a daze.
Several big directors exchanged greetings for a while and then went their separate ways.
Xu Kun quickly found Liu Haibo in the crowd, pulled him to a secluded place, and whispered, "Remember to be more proactive tonight. If Section Chief Jia says something nonsense, you should fight back. Don't hide anything."
"I know."
Liu Haibo bared his teeth in an exaggerated manner and said, "I am your vanguard. As soon as you close the door, I will bite him. After biting him, I will ask our wise and powerful president to come forward to make a judgment. We will both be punished with fifty lashes and the matter will be settled."
"wrong!"
Xu Kun corrected him, "It should be that I, the president, gave you a signal and told you to close the door first and then pounce on him and bite him. How could I, the president, personally close the door?"
"roll!"
Liu Haibo raised his middle finger and pointed at the crowd: "Why don't you talk to Ning Hao first? If the two of them are tied together, I won't be able to defeat them."
Xu Kun looked over and saw Ning Hao accompanying Huang Bo and talking to a tall man. Judging from Huang Bo's appearance, he should be very familiar with the tall man, and he went up to him and started beating, hitting, hugging and hugging him.
Xu Kun waited for a while, until the three of them had finished exchanging greetings, and then he walked over with Liu Haibo.
"Director Ning, Brother Bo."
Xu Kun greeted him with a smile. Ning Hao was fine, but Huang Bo groaned and pinched his shoulder with a grin, saying, "Director Xu, you used to call me like this, and I didn't mind it. But today, it feels like a billion RMB is pressing down on me. My shoulders are about to collapse."
Ning Hao sneered: "That's because your spine is too soft."
Liu Haibo smiled and said, "Isn't it easy to see someone with a strong backbone? You can watch whatever you want at night, but I'm afraid it will hurt if you watch for too long."
Ning Hao frowned slightly when he heard this. He naturally knew who Liu Haibo was talking about.
According to his heart and pursuit of art, he is definitely more inclined to Jia Zhangke, but he and Xu Kun are respectively supported by Han Sanye and promoted by Han Sanye, so it is not good to openly undermine each other.
After hesitating for a moment, he said to Xu Kun, "Director Xu, I'll be responsible for dinner tonight, is that ok?"
"Serious matters still need to be discussed."
Xu Kun said: "For example, regarding the female director vice president, each of you three can recommend one, and we will select the best one."
Anyway, with Liu Haibo around, Xu Kun didn't expect Ning Hao to take the initiative to get close to him, so it would be fine if they could just not help each other.
Huang Bo smiled and pointed at the tall man next to him and said, "This is my childhood friend Gao Hu, a very loyal buddy. If it weren't for him, I would have returned to my hometown to farm and would never have been able to become an actor."
"You talk as if you own land at home."
Gao Hu made a joke, then bowed solemnly to Xu Kun and said, "Director Xu, I have often heard Huang Bo mention you in the past two years. It is a great honor to meet you today."
"Don't dare to take it seriously."
Xu Kun's attitude was very cold. After all, he knew this cellmate. He was a second-time inmate, and the second time was because he was infected with that drug.
Naturally, he would stay away from such people.
So he just nodded slightly and said to Huang Bo and Gao Hu: "Excuse me, I have something to discuss with Director Ning Hao."
Then he said to Ning Hao, "Director Ning, can you please have a word with me?"
Seeing the three people going backstage, Gao Hu's smile suddenly fell, and he said in a sad tone: "Director Xu, have you heard about me?"
He was talking about how he accidentally killed a lighting technician in 03.
"possible."
Huang Bo counted on his fingers and said, "At that time, Director Xu was still a young actor, and he was traveling around various crews. It's okay. If Director Xu's path doesn't work out, we can just go and try with the beautiful Jiang. I heard that she is preparing to recruit new actors recently."
And not far away.
Seeing Xu Kun's back, Liu Xiaoli, who had just entered the venue, couldn't help but regret it greatly. If she had known that Xu Kun was coming, she would have...
"Mother."
Liu Yifei nudged her with her elbow and asked suspiciously, "What are you thinking about? Why do I feel like you've been acting weird these past two days?"
"No, how is that possible!"
Liu Xiaoli quickly denied it, saying that it didn't matter if she missed this opportunity, but she must not let Xixi become suspicious.
