Chapter 356 Name and New Movie
Hong Kong Island, a luxury villa in Mid-Levels.
In the study room on the second floor, the three sat around the tea table.
The two older ones were quietly looking at the youngest one opposite.
"Door lock code '438'..."
Looking at the part of the modified "House Demon" script asking the door lock demon for the password, Qin Muchu nodded. The biggest problem with the script is the American jokes, but now they are all replaced with jokes that the Celestial Dynasty can understand.
After closing the script, he said to Xu Chengxin who was looking forward to it:
"can."
Xu Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief, revised it back and forth for more than a week, and finally passed the test this time.
Immediately afterwards, an indescribable excitement surged from the bottom of my heart.
Am I really going to direct a blockbuster movie with a cost of 3 million?
Temporarily suppressing his excitement, he looked at Qin Muchu and asked another question:
"Director Qin, since we are really about to start preparations for this movie, I don't think the name "The Otaku of Liaozhai" is inappropriate, should we change it?"
"Liao Zhai: The House Monster" was just randomly obtained by him and Yuan Jinling when they were writing the script, because the inspiration came from it.
But in fact, the content of the story is completely different from the real "House Demon", and the style is even far from "Liao Zhai". It only borrows the image of the house demon from it.
"Well, it's not appropriate."
Qin Muchu pondered.
The movie focuses on family comedy, and the monsters are round and cute, which is completely different from the horror and spookiness of "Liao Zhai". The name may mislead the audience.
When he was thinking about what name to change, he noticed that Xu Chengyi was hesitant to speak.
I smiled in surprise, thinking, this is just being sentimental.
So he said:
"What name does Director Xu want to change to?"
"Monster Hunt."
Xu Chengyi blurted it out, and he could see that he had thought about the name for a long time.
After a pause, he said with some embarrassment:
"If director Qin thinks it's not good, he can change it, I can do it."
"No, it's very good. You don't need to change it. Just use this name to file a project for approval."
Qin Muchu nodded in agreement.
"Catching monsters" is the theme of the movie, so adding "note" is also very ancient.
Moreover, the name gave him a sense of familiarity.
"Okay, let's celebrate that our "Monster Hunt" project is about to start, let's go to Lung King Heen to have a meal, his roast goose and caviar are excellent. Director Qin came all the way to Hong Kong Island, let me respect Landlord's friendship."
After such a project was discussed, Jiang Zhiqiang was also very happy, and immediately got up and said.
After speaking, he was about to call the secretary to reserve a seat, but Qin Muchu waved his hands and refused apologetically:
"I promise to go back for dinner, Mr. Jiang, Director Xu, next time, next time I go to Yanjing, I will treat you well."
Hong Kong Island is a very small circle, especially the entertainment circle on Hong Kong Island is even smaller.
He didn’t force it, he laughed and said:
"I almost forgot, from now on, Director Qin will also be half a native of Hong Kong Island."
Qin Muchu smiled, not surprised that Jiang Zhiqiang knew about Zhou Huimin.
Once you reach that level, no one will be idle to expose this matter.
"Nephew or niece?" Jiang Zhiqiang asked again.
This question is very particular.
Don't ask whether it is a "boy" or a "girl", but a "nephew" or "niece", first determine the relationship.
"It's only nine weeks, I don't know yet."
Qin Muchu shook his head.
It is too early for Zhou Huimin to measure the sex of the fetus through B-ultrasound or other scientific means after three to four months of pregnancy.
However, because they are afraid that some people don't like boys or girls, they beat their children, and gender testing is not allowed.
But this is only for ordinary people, and even a little relationship can be known in advance.
"Then you know, but you must tell me. I have to prepare a full-month gift for the child." Jiang Zhiqiang said cheerfully.
"sure."
The intent is obvious.
Getting up and preparing to leave, Xu Chengzhi suddenly said:
"By the way, Director Qin, we have made a doll based on the image of the little demon king you chose. Take a look."
He took out a forearm-long rectangular box from his schoolbag and handed it to Qin Muchu.
Qin Muchu took the box and opened it with some curiosity.
The night he first talked about "Monster Hunt", he received four animations of the little monster king, and finally chose an image that looked like a carrot.
Because Yang Mi and other women think this image is the cutest.
Looking at the doll in the box, it was basically the same as the image in the animation that night, and pinched the green hair on its head, and heard Xu Chengzhi say:
"Director Qin, please give the little demon king a name."
The script has always been called "Little Demon King" and "Son of the Demon King". In fact, this character originally had a name, and Jiang Zhiqiang gave it to him.
But before bringing the script to Qin Muchu, Jiang Zhiqiang deleted the name he had given the character and asked Qin Muchu to be the one who named the character.
"name……"
Qin Muchu was in trouble.
He has always used the name of the actor he played when he changed the name of the character.
But the Little Demon King is produced by special effects, and there is no actor to play it.
So he said:
"I'll go back and think about it."
"Row."
Xu Chengyi is not in a hurry.
The movie hasn't been approved yet, and it's too early to be released.
After the conversation was over, Jiang Zhiqiang and Xu Chengyi sent Qin Muchu out together.
In the living room on the first floor, there was a "crackling" sound.
"Qin Sheng won't you stay for dinner?"
The elegantly dressed woman turned her head to see Qin Muchu, stood up and asked with a smile.
Although he is over sixty years old, he is well maintained and looks like he is half a hundred years old.
"I promised to go back to eat, Mrs. Jiang, you play your game."
Qin Muchu replied with a smile.
"Director Qin is really a good man who takes care of the family."
Mrs. Jiang praised it, then sat back in her chair and started picking up the cards again, but she didn't want to keep her.
This makes the invitation just now very insincere.
"Just kidding." Jiang Zhiqiang apologized.
"Boss Jiang is too polite."
Qin Muchu didn't take it to heart.
Gambling is easy on Hong Kong Island, for both men and women.
Playing mahjong is very popular, especially rich wives, often make an appointment to play mahjong together.
This kind of same-sex entertainment without leaving home, the husbands are also very relieved, they don't have to worry about their hair becoming like the "little demon king" one day, so they naturally agree.
"chick!"
"Haha, blah blah blah! blah blah!"
Listening to the voice coming from the card table, Qin Muchu was suddenly startled, as something seemed to flash in his mind.
……
"Ding dong, ding dong" twice, and then there was a rush of "tapping" footsteps, the door opened, and Zhou Huimin's face was full of smiles.
"you……"
Before he finished speaking, he was knocked on the head:
"Run again, what should I do if I fall?"
"Oh, I'm not a kid anymore."
Zhou Huimin pouted, saw the box Qin Muchu was holding, and asked:
"what is this?"
"The doll of the little demon king Huba."
Qin Muchu handed the box to Zhou Huimin.
Zhou Huimin also knew about "Monster Hunt", and she also participated in the selection of the image of Huba.
Opening the box, looking at the little Huba doll, he suddenly smiled:
"It's so cute ~ Huba, have you decided on a name? Why is it called this name?"
Qin Muchu then told about the inspiration he saw for playing mahjong when he left Jiang Zhiqiang's house.
"Ah, did Mahjong think of it?"
Zhou Huimin was a little confused. She thought it had some special meaning.
"Yes, huh, huba, it's all a good expectation, I hope the movie will be a great success."
Qin Muchu was very satisfied with the name.
Zhou Huimin secretly rolled his eyes, and whispered:
"You are not allowed to choose the baby's name from now on..."
"what?"
Qin Muchu's ear tipped, and he heard the voice.
"nothing……"
There was a "pop", Zhou Huimin covered her butt with one hand, touched her belly with the other hand, and said shyly:
"Oh baby, your father beat mother, you are a villain..."
While the two were making trouble, Zhou's mother came out of the kitchen with the dishes, looked at the young couple, and said hello:
"time to eat."
Qin Muchu didn't quarrel with Zhou Huimin anymore, and hurried forward to take the dishes.
"It's okay, it's not serious."
Mother Zhou smiled.
During this week of getting along, she gradually became familiar with Qin Muchu.
"Auntie, it's enough to hire a nanny for this matter. In the future, Huimin will still have to hire someone to take care of her if she has a big belly. You can't do it alone."
Qin Muchu put the dishes on the table and persuaded him.
During the week in Hong Kong Island, he could still help Zhou's mother to cook together when he had time, but when he left, Zhou's mother would be busy all by herself.
And for the nutrition of my daughter and future grandson (daughter), I still cook all kinds of different nutritious meals, which are very complicated.
"Yes, Mom, otherwise you would be too tired."
"Little Jew" Zhou Huimin also came to hold his mother's hand, wanting to spend the money.
"OK then."
Zhou’s mother hesitated but agreed.
She knew that neither her daughter nor her prospective son-in-law were short of money, they just got used to thrift over the years.
At the dinner table, the three of them discussed what kind of nanny to hire.
"Is it for a special cook, or for a long-term stay?" Zhou Huimin asked after taking a bite of his meal.
The aunt who specializes in cooking just comes to the meal time and leaves after cooking.
The long-term residence is more comprehensive, including but not limited to cooking, cleaning, and laundry at home.
"Let's just cook, I can do other things." Mother Zhou said subconsciously.
But Qin Muchu said:
"Auntie, the doctor said that Huimin should eat less and more often, please stay longer."
When it comes to her daughter's health, Zhou's mother will not refute, but the problem comes again:
"If you stay for a long time, there are not enough rooms at home."
Zhou Huimin's "thousand-foot mansion" only has an area of more than 80 square meters except for the shared pool, with two bedrooms and one living room.
One for Zhou Huimin, one for Zhou's mother, and no other room for the nanny.
But this is not a problem for Qin Muchu:
"Then change to a bigger house."
"Ah?" Mother Zhou obviously didn't react.
Zhou Huimin, on the other hand, knew that Qin Muchu was wealthy and did not regard money as money.
He stopped eating, and took Qin Muchu's arm:
"Where is it so exaggerated, just change a house for this matter."
"Not just for this."
Qin Muchu shook his head, he had thought about this a long time ago, but only brought it up today:
"Change to a bigger house so that the nanny has a place to live, and secondly, the security of the community is also good. Have you forgotten that you are a star, what if you are targeted by the paparazzi?"
"Zhou Huimin is pregnant, who is the father of the child", this news headline is very attractive at first glance.
The paparazzi in Hong Kong are famous for their unscrupulous tactics. If something happens to them, they will regret it.
"I just need to be careful."
Zhou Huimin still didn't want to. Houses on Hong Kong Island were very expensive.
"Yes, Xiao Qin, Auntie knows you have money, but you can't waste it like this." Zhou's mother also persuaded.
However, Qin Muchu has made up his mind:
"It's okay, auntie, it's not a waste to buy a house, it always appreciates in value, so it's an investment.
There is no time to live in the new house. A few days ago, I asked someone to find some renovated houses, which can be lived in immediately. Let's go and see tomorrow, which one do you like. "
……
At night, Zhou Huimin leaned in Qin Muchu's arms, and continued to persuade Qin Muchu not to buy a house according to her mother's instructions.
But after saying a few words, Qin Muchu pinched his little mouth with his fingers.
"If you don't buy it now, you will still buy it in the future. If you have a child in the future, take the child back to Hong Kong Island to see where your aunt lives?"
Zhou Huimin stopped talking.
That's right, don't mention it later.
Now Yang Mi and Zeng Li come to see her and live in a hotel, which is very inconvenient.
"Besides, this house was bought for my aunt, so I think I bought you from her."
Qin Muchu pinched Zhou Huimin's face and joked.
"Hmph, then you've made a lot of money. I'm worth more than a house."
Zhou Huimin snorted, and hammered Qin Muchu's chest with her small fist in dissatisfaction.
Qin Muchu held Zhou Huimin's hand:
"I'm going back to Yanjing tomorrow night. If I haven't chosen a house by then, Sissy and Mimi will come and help you choose."
After staying in Hong Kong Island for a week, seeing that Yanying's third test is about to start, he has to go back to Yanjing.
After all, choosing a house is not about going to the convenience store to buy things. One day is definitely not enough.
Seeing that "Ode to Joy" was about to start, Zeng Li didn't have much time, only Yang Mi and Liu Xiqian were free.
But Yang Mi already has an arrangement - the heroine of "Monster Hunting".
And Liu Xiqian...
This girl's current position is actually quite embarrassing.
"Inception" pushed her to a very high level, it is not an exaggeration to say that the most popular female star of the younger generation in China.
I definitely can't go back to acting in TV series, but in terms of movies, this girl is quite picky now, and some vase roles are simply ignored.
I would rather spend the whole day petting cats and dogs at home, and posting about my daily life on Weibo.
Before, a reporter made a news about "Who are the three girls who are the new girls?" The content was that Yang Mi, Zhou Dongyu, and Tang Wei were photographed in front of Laomouzi's studio that day. .
Needless to say, this news is quite popular and has been in the headlines for several days.
Somehow, the fire reached Liu Xiqian, because some of the original fans who had read "Love in the Hawthorn Tree" felt that the three of them were not suitable.
Yang Mi looks too charming, Tang Wei is old, and the mysterious girl has a flat body.
In the end, Liu Xiqian was suggested to be very suitable.
Beautiful and pure figure is also good.
Liu Xiqian's fans were overjoyed, and one by one directly attacked Zhang Yimou's Weibo.
Lao Mouzi is also a real person. Although he did not disclose who will play Jing Qiu because of confidentiality, he still said that the actor has been decided, not Liu Xiqian.
Then... the old man was raped on Weibo for the first time.
The excited fans of Liu Xiqian told him not to be ungrateful, if Liu Xiqian played "The Hawthorn Tree", he would help him restore the reputation of "Three Shots".
We also compared the Douban and box office results of "Inception" and "Three Guns".
Fortunately, Liu Xiqian found out in time and stopped those fans by posting on Weibo, saying that Director Zhang is a senior whom she respects very much, and also posted a group photo taken on the set of "Love Letter".
It was fun and obviously a good relationship.
Fans saw that this was a friendly army, so they couldn't spray it.
But it hurts not to spray.
After all, Goddess has no new movies, who should we watch?
Looking at the group photo again, there is a man in the corner who seems familiar.
As soon as the guns were turned, they began to rape Qin Muchu online!
You are the director and Liu Xiqian's boss, why don't you ask Qianqian to act? Why hasn't "Inception 2" been released yet?
Liu Xiqian also discovered it in time, but did not stop it. Instead, she added fuel to the fire and happily liked some funny comments.
And pitifully sent a message "Don't scold me, I will be hidden by the boss".
Qin Muchu could even imagine Liu Xiqian's big teeth when she edited this Weibo.
But this incident, coupled with Jing Tian's urging before, also made him seriously think about his next movie.
If it's a sci-fi blockbuster, Liu Xiqian can...
Suddenly my body froze, and my thoughts stopped abruptly.
Zhou Huimin on the chest was gone.
So, is this the reward for knowing I'm staying on Hong Kong Island for the last night?
If I had known, I would have lied to Zhou Huimin every night this week that I would be leaving tomorrow...
