"Honey, you treat Sister Man like this, okay?" On the way home, Su Yun looked at her husband who was driving with a wry smile.
Everyone accepted Sister Man's invitation to watch the other party's poker performance, but in the end they beat Sister Man to autism, which really didn't give them any face.
Don't say anything else, just invite everyone to eat pizza for Sister Man, and you should save the other party some face.
"She didn't let me release the water, so what's my business? I didn't expose her little trick on the spot, so I've already given face." Xu Jie said with a faint smile after hearing this.
Leaving aside the little tricks when arranging the cards, he has discovered many times just changing the cards. Can he say that he didn't give the opponent face?It is already enough.
Obviously the other party didn't seize the opportunity.
Coupled with the fact that the opponent team came to trick him in such a round, if he didn't fight back, wouldn't the opponent think he was a bully?
This is related to his reputation, his marriage, and his career.
"Then you can't make a deadly move. You don't let Sister Man mess up in a round. How embarrassing is it for her? By the way, you cheated on her. I can guess what it is. If you say she cheated on you, what is it?" What?" Su Yun asked curiously.
She had been thinking about this when she was at Sister Man's house, but unfortunately she had limited imagination and never thought of it.
Uh……
Xu Jie was at a loss for words for a moment, not knowing how to explain to his wife.
About this matter, only he and Liu Jiaman knew it in their hearts, maybe even Liu Qing didn't see it.
"Actually...it's nothing. She wanted to sabotage me while I was laying out the cards. I saw it. It's just like the saying: come and don't reciprocate. If she comes to cheat me, can I not cheat her?"
Xu Jie finally came up with a pretty good reason.
It wasn't that he wanted to deceive Su Yun deliberately, but that this matter was completely under his control, and there was no need to worry the other party, which would cause some unnecessary misunderstandings.
It's... a white lie.
"Oh."
Su Yun suddenly realized.
If this is the case, you really can't blame your husband. After all, Sister Man provoked it first, and your husband's behavior can be regarded as self-defense.
"It's a pity that I didn't see Sister Man's card skills." Su Yun said with emotion.
Xu Jie didn't speak after hearing it, and continued driving while looking ahead.
In fact, it is not difficult to hear from this sentence that my wife didn't notice that Sister Man was changing cards during the game. Just because of this, Sister Man's card skills have improved a lot.
What's more, Sister Man spent her spare time practicing poker skills. From this point of view, the other party is still very talented in this area.
In contrast, Liu Qing, who had learned card skills a few months earlier than Sister Man, has no talent at all in this area.
Now that "Legend of Lan Xi" has finished filming, Sister Man is also free now. It is conceivable that after the other party has received today's "lesson", she will definitely work harder when she looks back, and when she is asked to play cards next time, Poker skills will definitely be better than today.
As far as learning card skills, Sister Man is quite reassuring. She doesn't need to be supervised, and she is very self-conscious.
"Ring bell bell!"
Bursts of music suddenly sounded in the car, and it was Su Yun's cell phone that was ringing.
Su Yun took out her mobile phone from her bag, was stunned for a moment when she saw the caller ID, then looked at Xu Jie who was driving suspiciously and said, "It's Sister Man."
Ok?
Xu Jie's heart tightened, the mahjong game was over, why did Sister Man call his wife?Could it be that he became angry from embarrassment and was going to tell about Liu Qing and him?
This is a bit too much fun!
"Could it be that Sister Man lost her temper and let us go back and continue playing?" Su Yun asked.
"Can't you?" Xu Jie said.
When the anger subsides, call him back again. Isn't this looking for anger?
Su Yun was embarrassed to keep Liu Jiaman waiting, so she connected the phone, "Sister Man, are you still angry? Don't be angry..."
Xu Jie slowed down the car, and listened to the sound in the microphone with his ears up.
At this moment, his heart was already in his throat.
While he is completely innocent in the matter, it would be wrong to keep it under wraps.
He has already started thinking about how to explain it to his wife later.
"Um...uh...uh..."
Su Yun kept responding.
Because he couldn't hear the voice in the words, Xu Jie was anxious like ants on a hot pot, and the simpler his wife responded, the more anxious he was.
why?
Because Sister Man talks too much!
As the saying goes: talk too much and you will lose.
Talk too much, God knows which sentence will reveal the truth.
"Okay Sister Man, I see, thank you, don't be angry about tonight, let's play together another day, goodbye." After chatting for more than ten minutes, Su Yun hung up the phone.
"What's the matter? Are you talking bad about me?" Xu Jie asked tentatively.
To him, these ten minutes were like ten hours of torment.
"No, Sister Man and I talked about the movie." Su Yun said while putting the phone back in the bag.
"Talking about movies? Could it be that she wants to change careers and become a director?" Xu Jie asked curiously, but in fact he wanted to find out more about the content of the chat between the two.
After all, apart from "Lover in Time and Space", the two have no other movie communication.
Besides, Liu Jiaman didn't call to talk about movies in the early days, and didn't call in the evening to talk about movies. Why did he call to talk about movies at this time?It's hard not to think in the wrong direction.
"Didn't you say that I won't be used in the next movie? Sister Man remembered it in her heart and introduced me to a great director. She also said that if I didn't meet a good role, I could try to find this director. This director Recently, I am preparing a movie, by the way, it is the great director Yang Xiaolong." Su Yun said simply.
"is it?"
When Xu Jie heard what his wife said in a decent way, the doubts in his heart gradually dissipated, and he also understood a little bit why Sister Man did this.
This was clearly intended to scare him, and it could also be seen as revenge for disrupting the situation just now.
"Yang Xiaolong, I know, is very good in the film industry, and almost every film he shoots will win awards, but this person has a very big shortcoming, that is, the filming cycle is too long, and it is common for a film to be shot for three to five years. and the actors are not allowed to take on other films during the period, so I don't recommend it." Xu Jie said.
For an actor, being able to win an award is naturally a good thing, but if the filming cycle is too long, the actor's popularity will inevitably be greatly affected.
Like Su Yun, now is the most popular time, if it takes several years to shoot a movie, it is a waste of popularity and traffic.
In his opinion, Yang Xiaolong's film adaptation has achieved both fame and fortune, but he is not satisfied with the status quo, and is eager to make films with actors with higher aspirations.
As for his wife... let's talk about it after I get the movie.
After getting the actress, she has confirmed her position in the film and television industry, and it is not too late to spend time to reach higher goals.
Su Yun nodded after hearing this.
Although she really wanted to cooperate with Director Yang Da, she believed in her husband's judgment more.
My husband can't be wrong.
"Honey, you won't be blamed for not finding you as the heroine of the new movie, right?" Xu Jie asked suddenly, worried that the other party would think too much.
"No, I'm your wife, how can I blame you? I will firmly support all your decisions." Su Yun asked with a smile.
"Honey, it's not that I don't want to find you, but that the drama I'm cooperating with Yu Zijian is a completely male drama, and the heroine's role is relatively small. I don't want you to waste time on this. Next time, I will write a I will find you to act in the script of a heroine." Xu Jie said seriously.
The several film and television works he participated in before, such as Zhang Weiqiang's "Mulan", Xu Shenghua's "Stranger Road", including his own "Lanxi Biography", are all major female protagonists.
To be honest, the script of the heroine is not easy to write, and it may overturn if you are not careful.
This time with Yu Zijian, due to time constraints and heavy tasks, he wrote a man's drama in order to speed up the progress.
Men's dramas are straightforward and not that complicated. In contrast, women's dramas are emotional and require a lot of time to deal with psychology, emotions, etc., which is very difficult to write.
Su Yun was deeply moved.
She knew very well that without the other party, she would not be where she is now.
"As long as you need me, no matter when, I will be there." Su Yun said emotionally.
Xu Jie's heart warmed. If he wasn't driving, he would have already been in the car.
"Husband, I actually have a lot of scripts in my hand right now, can you help me with my staff?" Su Yun asked, she believed in the man's choice more than her own vision.
Aren't the few movies she shot recently all controlled by men?
"No problem." Xu Jie agreed without hesitation.
Not long after, the car slowly drove into the community.
Since they only played a few rounds of mahjong, the total time was more than half an hour, so it was only eight o'clock when the two returned home.
After Su Yun changed her clothes, she took out the scripts she had read recently and piled them on the coffee table in the living room.
There are more than a dozen books in total, and this is what she left after screening.
Xu Jie stretched out his hand to pick up the topmost book, held it in front of him, and read it seriously.
For a long period of time in the future, he will be busy with the post-production work of "Legend of Lan Xi", and he will come back later and later. Taking advantage of the time tonight, he will try to read it all at once. Even if he wants to watch it in the future, I'm afraid I can't spare so much time.
Xu Jie browses very quickly, almost half an hour for a book, and some even take less than 10 minutes.
When he chooses a script, he usually only reads a few pages. If the first few scenes don’t appeal to him, there is no need to read the rest. If the first few pages are very exciting, he will take the time to read a few more pages, and then Classify the good scripts and pick out the most satisfactory ones.
Seeing her husband's serious appearance, Su Yun gradually became fascinated.
There is nothing more attractive than the way a man concentrates on doing something.
She rested her chin on her hands and watched quietly, but her eyes were full of smiles, just like a little girl.
As time passed by, more and more scripts were thrown into the trash by Xu Jie, and soon there was no room for them.
With a bang, a script fell to the ground.
Su Yun was startled and recovered from the obsession. Only then did she realize that it was past eleven o'clock.
"Honey, it's getting late, go to bed earlier." Su Yun said with concern, her tone very gentle.
Xu Jie glanced at the few remaining scripts, and then said: "I'll finish it right away, you go to bed first."
How could Su Yun have the nerve to sleep first?You must know that the man is working so hard now, all because of her, no matter how heartless she is, she can't leave her husband alone.
She got up and went to the kitchen, poured a glass of orange juice and put it in front of her husband, which could quench his thirst and refresh himself.
After more than an hour, Xu Jie finished reading all the scripts, and put the few scripts that he thought were good in front of his wife.
"Honey, these three scripts are good. They have stories, ideas, and are interesting. You can choose whichever you like." Xu Jie said while rubbing his dry eyes.
Probably because he used his eyes too much, he could obviously feel some fatigue in his eyes.
After taking it, Su Yun flipped through it briefly, then nodded and said, "I'll flip through it a few more times to see which one is more suitable for me."
"Well, by the way, no matter which movie you act in, remember to add a condition when replying." Xu Jie said.
"What conditions?" Su Yun asked curiously.
"We must bring funds into the group." Xu Jie said.
"Huh?" Su Yun was startled.
Bringing capital into the group means that actors bring a lot of money when they enter the group for filming. The actor will also become one of the investors of the film and have a certain right to speak in the crew.
Under normal circumstances, only those actors with poor acting skills and a certain background will bring money into the group, and it can even be said that the roles are bought with money.
However, the scripts she received were all invited by others to act as the heroine. Even if she didn't bring money, it wouldn't affect her role and status in the crew, so why bother?
"Having the right to speak is better than not having the right to speak." Xu Jie said.
Su Yun understood.
The other party was still thinking about her.
"What if you don't agree?" Su Yun asked.
"Don't agree? Then don't act." After Xu Jie finished speaking, he suddenly laughed, and said confidently: "I think everyone will agree, and no one will refuse to cooperate with a company with an official background."
As the saying goes: there are people in the court who are easy to handle.
From project approval to release of a film, there are many links that need to be reported to the authorities. If people with official backgrounds come forward to deal with it at this time, things will naturally be much simpler.
In order to win over companies with official backgrounds for cooperation, some film companies even take the initiative to cut meat without requiring the other party's investment.
This is also the reason why Yu Kuan, the former general manager, was invited by other entertainment companies to serve as the general manager even though Beijing TV Culture was losing money year after year.
There are connections!
"My husband, thank you!"
Su Yun put the script aside, tightly grasped Xu Jie's hand, her face was full of emotion.
Even if she was not asked to act as the heroine, she still escorted her.
This is what we often call a sense of security.
Xu Jie held his wife in his arms and kissed her lightly on the forehead.
What is he trying to climb up for?Isn't it just for this day?
Now that he has this ability, naturally he can't let his wife suffer the slightest grievance.
In the past, he was Su Yun's husband.
And now, he wants everyone to know that Su Yun is his wife.
