MTL - I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad-Chapter 510 508. Jaguar as a guide

   Chapter 510 508. Jaguar as a guide

   "Boom boom boom."

"Enter."

  Hearing the sound, Pang Liwei pushed open the door of the rest room, and saw Zhang Yimou who was holding a wallet in his hand and putting on a baseball cap as if he was about to go out.

   “…going out?”

   "Yes, Xiao Xu is here, and it is estimated that he will arrive in Nanjing in about an hour. I will pick him up."

   "...to pick it up in person?"

  Pang Liwei was really surprised.

  Although I know you love him, it doesn't hurt that much, does it?

  Momo came here two days ago, and you also asked her to come here by herself.

  Xiao Xu came to pick him up in person?

  And what can Zhang Yimou say?

   Can you say "I have an unmarried girlfriend who gave birth to three children for me, now I want to secretly get a marriage certificate and wait for the census to register the three children"?

Stop it.

   Don't say a word, not even a punctuation mark.

  So, simply nodded:

"Well. Don't you have anything else to do in the afternoon? You cut up the videotapes of the fitting session in the morning and put them together with the clips from the previous one. Let's compare them one by one. Don't worry, bring it to me tonight...forget it , Give it to me tomorrow, and I will take Xiao Xu out for dinner tonight."

   As he spoke, he was about to leave.

  But Pang Liwei hurriedly said:

   "You go to the office first, and see Weiping."

   "Xiaowei?...What's wrong?"

  Zhang Yimou paused.

  Pang Liwei told the truth:

   "I drank too much, and when I came back, I opened the door very loudly, clamoring to find you... I told you that you were on a lunch break, but that doesn't work, I have to find you..."

   "..."

  If it's someone else, forget it.

  If you don’t drink, forget it.

  Put these two together...

  Zhang Yimou, who originally planned to drive away after only a slight pause, frowned.

   There was silence in the lounge.

   "Then... let me go and have a look."

"…Um."

  Pang Liwei responded and walked out with him.

  The two came all the way to the rented art school office. Before they reached the door, they heard a voice from inside:

   "At least 30 million! Lao Zhao! Do you know?! Don't let you add ads, at least 30 million is gone!! Damn it!"

   "..."

  Zhang Yimou stopped.

  Pang Liwei did not continue to move forward.

   "I don't feel bad for a plot, I feel bad! Do you know...Damn it! I really feel bad!!"

   "..."

   "..."

  In the silence, Zhang Yimou thought for a while after hearing this sentence, and handed his wallet to Pang Liwei:

   "Go and pick up Xiao Xu for me."

   "Uh... good."

   "Yes. Go to Lao Gao to get the key, and Li Shuang asked them to keep the car."

   After Pang Liwei took the wallet, Zhang Yimou walked directly towards the office.

  Pang Liwei vaguely heard:

   "Yimou, you are here! Let me tell you, I was talking to Lao Zhao just now..."

  She heard this sentence, but she felt like Ming Jing about what Zhang Weiping wanted to talk about.

  No reason, she felt a little sad.

  If you are in other movies... forget it.

   Let's not mention what you did with "Three Guns"...just talk about the subject matter.

   This is "Nanjing"!

   In the face of national crisis, get placement ads! ?

  The dissatisfaction in her eyes was almost overflowing.

  But there is nothing you can do.

  Because I am just an agent.

well…

   With a long sigh, she quickly walked out holding Zhang Yimou's wallet.

  …

   "Sister Pang."

   "Xiao Xu, long time no see."

   "Yeah, long time no see..."

  Xu Xin said while helping Su Meng put their suitcases into the trunk of this Pajero.

   And walking to the trunk door, he glanced at the things that were originally in the trunk.

  Helmets for the construction site, four.

  Two tripods.

  The feet are still covered with mud.

   The trunk also looks dirty, obviously, the dirt that the tripod brought in was not cleaned.

   Finally, there are a few bottles of Master Kong’s mineral water.

  Seeing this, he didn't say much, and sat directly in the co-pilot's seat.

   "Sister Pang."

   After fastening his seat belt, he opened the window slightly before asking:

   "Is this the crew's car?"

   "...Yes. It's a bit dirty. The main reason is that everyone went to the production team today, and the assistant director Li Shuang asked to leave a car. I guess the production staff didn't know how to use it, so..."

  Pang Liwei nodded:

   "Yes, they are all crew cars."

"oh oh…"

  He didn't continue to ask more questions, and even woke up a little bit.

  I feel a little hypocritical.

  Because the thought in his mind just now was: "Hey, old man, it's so boring. I have done such a big job for you old man, you have to work hard to pick me up..."

   Of course, this is a joke.

  The real thought is that the old man's subordinates don't seem to be very good this time.

   It's not about the crew, it's about logistics.

   I won’t mention the closeness of the relationship.

   As far as his 500 million box office energy is concerned, anyone in the production team knows that he is coming, at least it has to start with a Mercedes-Benz, right?

  Of course, commercial vehicles are not included.

   But it has to be a GL8 anyway.

   While the Pajero is reliable, it's...used outside of work.

  Especially when it comes to receiving clients...

   Not very good.

  Thinking of this, another thing suddenly appeared in his mind.

   "By the way, sister Pang, have you got the old man's car back? Who will drive it now? Let me feel it, what is Hermes?"

   "...?"

  Pang Liwei, who was walking towards the exit of the parking lot, was a little puzzled:

"what?"

   "That Jaguar. The one sent by Takakura Ken has been running in for more than half a year, right? How come it has been driven for 3,000 kilometers. Let me feel what is called Hermès craftsmanship."

   When he was chatting with "Zhu Xiaotian", "Jerry Yan" and "Wu Jianhao" a few days ago, he mentioned this matter.

  Zhu Xiaotian was the first to snort:

   "Hermes' interiors are fully covered? You said they are covered with Rolls-Royce, I believe, but with a Jaguar? Quickly pull it down. It's not enough to drop the price."

   Zhu Xiaotian’s words immediately met Jerry Yan’s rebuttal:

"That's the Jaguar of Takakura Ken! It's just like Liu Dehua wanted the old Beijing Neilian to sew a pair of cloth shoes for his dog. Takakura Ken is not only in Japan, but in China, among my dad's group, he is also the top. Is it good?"

   Vanness Wu:

   "Eh? Is it okay to be like this? Hum? Hermès sews car interiors?... Dani, check it out and see if Wanwan accepts this kind of work."

In the end, I was affirmed by Xu Xin, and through a general description, after explaining the fairy friendship between the old man and Takakura Ken, when I heard that the two of them actually used "letter communication", the three people who felt this empathy were so hanging He tore through his socks without jealousy.

Then what…

  Looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

  Heart said how do you think these two bastards/old bastards/fucking don't seem to have the virtue of being able to write letters to themselves.

  So this matter is so nothing.

  However, this matter did arouse the interest of four people.

   Wanted to see what the "love" between these two middle-aged people was like, so Xu Xin asked.

  But after being stunned for a while, Pang Liwei finally realized what he was talking about, and then a wry smile appeared on her face.

   "That car...is still being held at customs."

   "...?"

  Xu Xin was taken aback:

   "Butt it? Why?"

   "Because Zhang Weiping didn't mention it..."

   It’s okay if you don’t mention this name, but when it is mentioned, Pang Liwei gets angry:

"He refused to go through the customs formalities. The car was originally a left-hand drive car specially bought by Takakura Ken, and it was sent over after it was run-in. It has entered the customs, but it needs to be picked up in the name of the company. He didn't go... Yimou and him When talking about this, he said that he went there, but the car was illegally modified because it used Hermès to modify the interior or something, so he couldn’t mention it. He also said that it was a Jaguar. He bought one and gave it to Yimou. .”

   "..."

  Xu Xin's mouth twitched.

"Then what?"

"Then? That car is still there now. I'm still a little short... Indeed, it is already within the scope of modification. But it's just a servant, it doesn't matter at all. I also asked my friend, and my friend said this If you don’t change the exterior color, no one cares about how the interior is modified. There is only one reason why it was detained, and that is that someone took the initiative to mention the interior of the car to modify it..." (Note 1)

"Understood."

  Pang Liwei was not allowed to continue talking, and Xu Xin roughly understood what was going on.

  He continued to ask:

   "What about this car now? Return it?"

"Yimou said that he would rather be in the customs than return it. How can he explain it to Gao Cangjian? He was sure that the car could be shipped to China, so he bought it for Yimou. If it can't be taken out here... If Gao Cangjian knew , then what should I think..."

   "..."

  Xu Xin thought for a while, then suddenly lowered his head and took out his phone.

  I found a name in the phone book and called it directly.

   "Duddu...haha, Director Xu is going to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing."

  Because the hands-free is turned on, Pang Liwei can also hear the voice inside.

  Xu Xin is happy:

   "Haha, what Director Chen said... I can't chat with you if I have nothing to do?"

   "Hahahaha~"

  There were bursts of laughter coming from the phone, and Xu Xin didn't hide it, and said directly:

   "Director Chen, I have a question...it's like this, do you know Takakura Ken?"

   "Well, that famous actor in Japan?"

   "Yes. Didn't you visit the director team during the Olympics?"

   "Oh yes, I remembered, I came here once, and gave Director Zhang a...Guardian knife. It's very touching~"

"Yes, that's him. He gave Director Zhang a Jaguar in Japan, the one with left-hand drive on our side. All the procedures have been completed, except for the interior seat surround and so on. It’s been changed... Now it’s at the customs, I want to ask how can I bring it up..."

   "The appearance of the car is unchanged? Is it in the customs import car catalog?"

"Here I am."

   "What about the customs tax? Have you paid it too?"

   "Well...he hasn't picked up the car yet, can't he hand it in?"

  After getting his explanation, this Director Chen immediately knew where the problem was:

   "Isn't it male to male?"

   "Yes, but now... Zhang Dao's company didn't go to get it, so Zhang Dao transferred the car to me, and I want to drive it."

"Haha, that's easy. Just find a company with an import car qualification certificate and entrust it as an agent. But you need to go through a set of procedures, either the transfer here, or the original factory formalities declaration list over there...the procedures are trivial. , Does Director Xu have detailed information on that car? If so, pay the customs duty. Since you have already asked, the file of the car should have been left at the customs, right?"

  Understanding some subtext, Xu Xin responded with a smile:

   "Hey, then let me hurry up and implement it? Is it okay to modify the interior of the car?"

   "Isn't it just a leather seat or something?"

"right."

   "No problem, within the frame."

   "That's fine... Last time it was because of the interior modification, so I didn't bring it up..."

   "Maybe I didn't explain it clearly. As long as it complies with our laws and regulations and is on the customs import list, the procedures are legal and there is no illegal modification, there is no problem."

   "Oh, that's great... Ouch, I still have to find the right person. Director Chen's words make me feel better..."

   "Hahahahaha..."

  After exchanging pleasantries for a while, and making an appointment to have a good get-together next time, the phone hung up.

  Pang Liwei was taken aback when she heard this.

At once…

   Is it solved?

  Being speechless, I heard Xu Xin say:

   "Mengmeng, let me tell you, Sister Ting, that I have just given a favor to Director Chen of the Customs. This year, the gift will be more serious."

   "Okay, Brother Xu."

  Su Meng nodded quickly and began to edit the text message to Sun Ting.

   Yang Mi may not be able to remember this kind of thing, but Sun Ting will definitely remember it.

  Because it's her job.

   At this time, Pang Liwei couldn't help asking:

   "Xiao Xu, this Director Chen..."

   "Huh? Sister Pang, did you forget? When the Olympic Games imported the batch of LED screen cables..."

   "...????"

  Pang Liwei was stunned:

   "Are you still in touch?"

"yes."

  Xu Xin nodded, then shook his head again:

   "However, I basically don't worry about these things. Yang Mi is always running around in the relationship every year."

   "Also... that is to say... so many people... are you both in touch?"

  Pang Liwei didn't know what to say anymore.

  Xu Xin responded:

   "Well, my friend, although we don't talk about money, isn't it normal to walk around, make a phone call, bring two bottles of wine and so on during the holidays?"

   Talking about what should be done, he did not forget to add:

   "Remember to give me the procedures for this car, and I will deal with it as soon as possible later. The old man should like that car very much... After all, this car sounds rare."

  When he said this, he was unconsciously thinking about...

  The old man said two days ago that he would give himself a Bentley.

  He didn't want it.

  But I don't want it... so you can't offer it?

  If you treat me like Takakura Ken did to the old man, choose the color of the car that I like the most, and then change the interior to Hermès for me... let alone Hermès, you can get Goldlion.

  Wrap your loving leather seat, and then drive it out for me every day and keep it at about 60 mph until the break-in period, so as to ensure that the car is in perfect condition in all aspects, and send it to me.

   See if I want it!

  Even if I don't open it, I still accept your love.

   Phew!

   Scumbag!

   I searched for it, and at first glance, it looks like a talkative player!

   What the hell!

  …

   "Ah Choo! Ah Choo! Ah Choo!...Damn it, who the **** scolded me!"

  An unknown rich second generation sneezed several times.

  …

"…All right."

   My heart sighed again...

  Pang Liwei nodded in agreement.

  In fact, she was also quite moved.

  To be honest, the communication between Yimou and Takakura Ken is simply in line with the ancient model of "friendship between gentlemen"!

   In addition to envy, I am still envious.

   I can't even feel a trace of jealousy.

  In addition to this, what is more complicated in her mood at this moment is Xiao Xu...

  Obviously when he joined the group, he was just a kid.

   Not to mention that the hair is not fully grown, at the beginning he was... just a student.

  Although I haven’t graduated yet.

  But look at others...

   And his family is outrageous enough.

   It’s okay to stay with so many relationships after the Olympics, but still walk around during the holidays?

  How much money do you spend on gifts this year?

  These couple...

Really are…

  Her heart was full of absurd emotions, but what followed was a strong contrast.

  Look at Xiao Xu.

  Look at Zhang Weiping again...

It really is…

  Her thoughts just reached here, but suddenly heard a sentence:

   "Sister Pang, is the old man and Zhang Weiping okay recently?"

   "Ah... ah???"

  Pang Liwei was taken aback again:

"What?"

  ? ?

  Xu Xin was a little puzzled.

  Why are you so excited?

   But immediately heard a sentence:

   "Did Yimou tell you?"

   "..."

  He was also speechless.

  Actually, he asked this question purely on intuition.

  After all, the matter of this car is logically speaking, that is, it is a matter of going through the procedures, and there is no need to go online.

  But such a thing happened.

   No matter how you look at it, it's a bit strange.

  But now that she is asking this question, judging by her reaction, it seems that something is really wrong?

  Xu Xin frowned all of a sudden.

"what happened?"

   "..."

  Pang Liwei was silent now.

  Xu Xin didn't rush, but the vehicle followed the vehicle in front slowly and came to the traffic light.

   "Actually... there was a fight last night."

   "Why?"

   "Two ways..."

  Pang Liwei sighed:

   "Sigh. On the one hand, because of investment issues, Zhang Weiping insisted on adding embedded advertisements. During this time, some advertisers have been in contact with him. But Yimou disagreed."

   "How can such a serious subject matter be advertised!?"

   "Yimou also said the same thing, and even the people in the team think so. But Zhang Weiping thinks...it's okay to add some more."

   "..."

  Xu Xin actually wanted to say "what is appropriate for T, M, and D".

   But after thinking about it, he still didn't say anything.

   just nodded:

   "Well, what then?"

   "Then the two sides have been deadlocked, but this is not enough to quarrel. The main reason for the quarrel is to add a **** scene between John Miller, played by Bell, and Zhao Yumo."

  In an instant, Xu Xin was numb.

   What the **** is this kind of important thing, you extra bed scene?

  Are you kidding me?

   What about the brain?

  What do you think?

"Then what?"

"There's no more. The two of them couldn't convince the other last night. Yimou thought it was flattery and bowed his head to Mr. Yang... Zhang Weiping thought it was the sublimation of the relationship between men and women. It can still have appeal... The market reaction will be good or something ...Anyway, it was quite noisy."

   After finishing speaking, Pang Liwei seemed to feel that she was not subjective enough, so she added:

   "Of course, the whole crew supports Yimou, but you also know the relationship between Zhang Weiping and Yimou..."

   "..."

  Xu Xin still didn't respond.

   Just asked:

   "The funding for this film has been secured?"

   "Well, the special funds are already in place."

"…Oh shit."

  Hearing this response, Xu Xin finally cursed.

   One step late.

  If you can become an investor, you must at least have the qualifications to speak from the inside.

   But it's too late to say anything now.

  He didn't intend to get involved in the play "Jinling" from the beginning.

   Not for anything else, just because he doesn't like Zhang Weiping. And the old man never let him get involved, thinking it was unnecessary.

  Can now...

   It was almost the time of waiting at this traffic light, Xu Xin had already made up his mind, and he had to persuade the old man for a while, and he had to stick to his own ideas.

otherwise…

  Don't mention any commercials, just this **** scene will cause the word-of-mouth of the entire film to decline rapidly.

  The subject itself is actually quite sensitive...

   While thinking about it, he felt that the old man shouldn't suffer this.

  Why?

  He also felt angry.

  You always come to me, I will give you an investment quota of 100 to 200 million a year, you can do whatever you want.

   Shoot whatever you want.

   can also be accumulated.

  If you take a break for a few years, then after three to five years, I will invest you in a billion-dollar drama.

  Why is he suffering this?

  The more I think about it, the angrier I feel.

   But he is not an old man, and he can't replace the old man's idea.

   What's more, the old man can't be allowed to leave the new screen now.

At least…

  Not until the things in the file bag in my bag are implemented.

  He has really seen the true face of Zhang Weiping when he was drunk.

   Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just in case.

hold on.

   he said to himself.

   Wait a little longer.

(Note 1: It is true that the Jaguar was returned, but in the "Lonely Fate", Zhou Xiaoou's description is a bit more serious than real. Her details are very vague, and I can only deliberate on my own , but the real situation is: the car was returned, and Zhang Weiping did give Zhang Dao a good news after he said, "Isn't it just a Jaguar? I'll just buy you one." The director of Jiebao's car is Zhang Weiping's wife, so he "lend" it to Director Zhang. After the two broke up, Director Zhang sent the car back. Let me explain. As for the procedures for importing cars, everyone. Don't be serious, the plot needs it.)

   Push a book, Tokyo Cao. . love flow!
