I make a thriller, it's God chasing and feeding

Chapter 266 [The greener is better than the blue]

"Tomorrow is your day off. Do you have any good movie recommendations recently?"

An e-commerce company,

As get off work was approaching, a girl glanced at the boys at the workstation and then said to the others around her, "What are your plans for tomorrow?"

"Of course I rest at home on my day off."

Another boy at the opposite station replied, "But I recently heard that a new hot pot restaurant has opened in the north of the city, and I have the idea of ​​​​trying it."

But after a pause, he mentioned casually, "As for movies, Lu Zhengyi seems to have made a new movie. His reviews have always been good, so you might want to go and watch it."

"Although it's a horror movie, you should be able to accept it, right?"

"After all, you, the old man, went to escape rooms a few times before, but you didn't scream the whole time."

"The escape room scenes are too fake and not scary at all." The girl waved her hand, "But there are rumors recently that Lu Zhengyi is filming all his films on behalf of others, that is...the assistant director of their crew filmed them. Yes, he is just a money man."

"It's not a rumor. I remember he said it himself, and there was a video."

The boy opposite quickly searched the Internet and said, "I'll forward it to you."

"Then there's nothing to see. I hate people who take advantage of their own wealth and power to plagiarize other people's achievements."

The girl rolled her eyes and said, "Let's look at something else."

The boy opposite quickly echoed, "If you have a bad character, you really shouldn't support it. Then watch something else. There is also a science fiction movie that seems good."

"A science fiction movie?"

The girl glanced at the other colleagues again, "Where are you? Are you free to go together tomorrow?"

"I...I'm not very good. I have something to do tomorrow."

"I'm free!"

"A science fiction movie? Heh-that's okay too."

Others gave their opinions.

Having a few colleagues with whom you have a good relationship together during rest days can also help you form cliques in the company and survive better.

The girl who was the first to speak paused for a moment after listening to the others' responses. After a while, she inadvertently asked the boy next to her who had not spoken yet, "What about you, do you have time to go together?"

"I?"

The boy in question glanced at her and then at the others, "Sorry, I won't go. I plan to watch other movies."

"What? Let's go together."

The girl secretly clenched her fists, "Oh...I see, you plan to go with your girlfriend, right? Then we really can't ruin the time in your world."

The boy replied without turning his head, "I was single from birth, where did I get a girlfriend?"

"then you……"

The girl unclenched her fist.

"I plan to watch Alien Space. I still prefer horror movies to science fiction movies."

The boy replied apologetically, "Sorry, I'll join you next time if I have time."

The girl was stunned, "But... didn't they say that Lu Zhengyi hired someone to shoot for him and plagiarized other people's results?"

"It's okay, because I got into the trap from the first commandment."

The boy explained, "And I watched the live video. Lu Zhengyi said at that time that he and Director Zhang worked together on the previous films, and during the filming process, Director Zhang accounted for more of the directing."

"As a new director, with the help of Director Zhang, he gradually fell in love with and deepened into this industry, and he considered himself a student."

"Director Zhang seems to appreciate Lu Zhengyi very much. He kept shirking his role in the crew on stage. The two of them promoted each other, so how can I put it...I think it's okay. At least Lu Zhengyi is really emotionally invested. Went to make a movie.”

The boy opposite had a look of disgust on his face, "No matter how you explain it, it's still plagiarism. It's just because his father is Lu Yiyong, so the director of Shancun Laozi is signed by him."

"Uh... maybe."

The boy who explained did not want to refute anything, "But because I was involved in the first episode, Director Zhang was not involved in the filming of the first episode, so I don't have much feeling about this aspect."

"And later on, The Grudge, I thought it was shot very well."

"So I still want to take a look at the alien space."

The boy opposite spread his hands and was about to say something.

"Indeed, what you said seems to make sense."

But before he could speak, the girl who made the suggestion at the beginning replied seriously, "Since The First Commandment and The Grudge were still able to be filmed so well without Director Zhang's participation, they are even better than the previous ones. The work is not bad, and Lu Zhengyi is quite capable of directing."

"Then let's go see Alien Space. In fact, I also really want to watch a horror movie."

"How about we watch a horror movie tomorrow and then have dinner together in the evening?"

She looked at the other colleagues around her and asked.

……

[Blue is better than blue. Although beautiful jade has flaws, it is more real. In the past, Lu Zhengyi gave people the impression of a horror and horror genius. From his debut work, he brought new hope to Tang Dynasty horror films, but now, he has slowly stepped down from the altar and came to in front of people. He is not a very dazzling star from the beginning, but a star that gradually blooms under the leadership of another bigger star! 】

[Alien Space has only been released for two days, and the box office data has exceeded [-] million! 】

[Talent may be important, but hard work is also indispensable. If he had not met Director Zhang, perhaps Lu Zhengyi would have wasted his talents. As a rich second generation from a prominent family who would never grow up, he spent his life dissolutely. But after meeting Director Zhang, he finally stopped No longer doing nothing, but willing to truly be an adult, a director who can take on the responsibilities of the entire crew. 】

[Foreign media commented on Lu Zhengyi’s new film, ‘a creepy movie’. The horror of the film is not just on the surface, but the truth hidden under the plot makes it even more difficult to escape! 】

[The title 'teacher' is plain and simple, but it is the person who has the greatest influence on a person's life besides his parents. Being able to meet a good teacher in the process of growing up in life is a lifelong blessing. On the contrary, if a person can meet a proud disciple and entrust him with the dream that he has never pursued in his life, it is also an opportunity to make up for his regrets. Lu Zhengyi was lucky enough to meet Zhang Yu, just like Zhang Yu was lucky enough to meet Lu Zhengyi...]

If we say that Lu Zhengyi disclosed this matter after the filming of Double Eyes was completed.

His reputation may be difficult to salvage.

After all, making this kind of thing public is equivalent to denying one's former honor.

But at this point in time, the situation is completely opposite.

After Zhang Yu temporarily left the crew due to illness, Lu Zhengyi successively produced two masterpieces: The First Commandment and The Grudge.

Regardless of the box office performance or the level of response, these two works are far higher than the previous works.

Perhaps, in addition to the quality of the film itself, it is also the result of the accumulation of fame.

But this result truly proves that Lu Zhengyi himself has certain directing abilities.

Under such circumstances, he is very different from the director who was at the peak of his career.

It's because the films he made are getting worse and worse, that's why the world thinks that the few masterpieces he made when he debuted were not directed by him.

However, Lu Zhengyi is getting better and better with more and more pictures, that is, he is better than his predecessor, not to mention that he has openly admitted his shortcomings.

"Are your parents-in-law here today?"

During dinner, Zhang Xueming mentioned the visit of the two elders today, "Why didn't you call me? They should have stayed for dinner." "I didn't even stay for lunch. Dad was very angry. Come in the morning." After that, we had a quarrel and left." Lu Zhengyi replied helplessly, "He blamed me for not informing him in advance, and... he was very dissatisfied with the voices of some media."

Yes, dissatisfied.

In fact, Lu Zhengyi felt that some of the words Lu Yiyong said after he came over today were more aimed at Zhang Yu.

As a son, after he succeeded, he first thanked outsiders instead of his parents.

He even publicly admitted that his directing experience and skills were all taught by Zhang Yu. So where does this leave him as a father?

It would be fine if Lu Yiyong is not the director.

But it’s so strange. The father is obviously a great director, but the son has to ask outsiders for advice. What’s the point?
  "Just follow him, my father-in-law is not in good health."

Zhang Xueming reluctantly gave him a bite of food and persuaded, "Let's find a time in the next two days to visit them at home and have a meal with them?"

"Okay, let's have dinner. Then we can invite my father-in-law and mother-in-law to join us." Lu Zhengyi did not refuse, "After a while, I will go to Heguo to film, and it will take some time to return to Beidu. ."

It was just a simple quarrel between father and son, and they were not children anymore. They would definitely not say that they would never go home again, never see each other again, never talk to each other again, etc. It was not necessary.

"But today's situation is mainly because Lao Zhang is also present. I definitely can't ignore his feelings."

Lu Zhengyi continued to explain, "I'm just telling the truth. How I became a director was indeed taught to me word by word by Mr. Zhang."

"How to arrange this camera position, how to divide this lens, how to adjust this filter to be more suitable for the overall subject... This is what Lao Zhang taught me. As for our dad, hey, he doesn't like me at all. He felt that I was incompetent since he was a child."

"He stays on the set every day and doesn't see me a few times throughout the day. How can he have time to teach me."

Zhang Xueming couldn't help laughing after listening to his words, "I heard what you said, you seem to have resentment in your heart."

As she spoke, she observed his expression.

"Resentment? In the past, I must have had it in the past."

Lu Zhengyi replied casually, "You won't have it when you grow up. It's not necessary. We are all busy after all, so I can understand it."

"But understanding is one thing. What he said in front of Lao Zhang is indeed a bit excessive."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Family matters are all a mess. No one is right or wrong. We will sit down to have a meal together in a few days and talk vaguely about other topics. This matter will be over."

He seemed very calm and experienced.

But such a flawless performance made Zhang Xueming a little disappointed.

"what happened?"

She couldn't hide her expression, and Lu Zhengyi saw it at a glance, and asked blankly, "Do you think... I'm not good enough for handling this matter this way?"

"Not at all."

Zhang Xueming quickly took a mouthful of rice and explained vaguely, "I just thought that you would be filming again soon, and I was a little reluctant to leave."

As soon as these words were spoken, not only Lu Zhengyi was surprised, but even Ayong, who had been immersed in his work, raised his head.

Their attitude made Zhang Xueming realize what she had just said, and her face turned red.

"how?"

She suppressed the strange emotion in her heart, "I can't let you go?"

"Okay, okay, of course. We are an old couple. I'm going to go abroad to film for several months. It's normal that you don't want to let me go." Lu Zhengyi smiled and replied, "It's okay, we'll be there every day You can make phone calls or make video calls [-] hours a day.”

"I don't have the time to video chat with you [-] hours a day."

Zhang Xueming rolled his eyes.

But as soon as he made this move, Lu Zhengyi paused again.

"Strange."

He looked at Zhang Xueming doubtfully, "Does Dr. Xu Bingcai's medicine also have ingredients that affect mood? You have been a little... lively during this period."

Lu Zhengyi thought about it for a long time and gave it the word "lively".

Not just in words, she often says amazing things.

Even his demeanor and body movements seemed less dignified than before.

In the past, although she would have some playful reactions when encountering urgent matters, most of the time she maintained her attitude as a young and promising female entrepreneur.

"What are you talking about? The feeling I gave you before was... very stiff?"

Zhang Xueming asked dissatisfiedly, "Or is it... very artificial?"

"You used to give me the impression of... an iceberg female CEO." Lu Zhengyi recalled that when we first met, she commented that she was a 'gangster leader', and also gave her own evaluation, "But now it should be, a Someone who is naughty and straightforward.”

Zhang Xueming's face paused and she bit her lip.

It sounds like he likes his past better than his current self.

"How should I put it? One is very cold and dignified."

Lu Zhengyi responded seriously, "One is very lively and... cute."

He looked at the woman sitting opposite.

In the past, even after marriage, Zhang Xueming often gave him a sense of distance.

Although she does not resist physical contact, sometimes the conversations between them are in just the right place.

Once she shows the slightest reluctance to answer certain topics, she will immediately move away, and both parties will maintain a respectful distance.

But after all, it is a marriage based on business cooperation, and that is normal.

But recently, she seems to want to get closer to her, and she often talks about... very in-depth topics.

Regarding the comment of 'cute', Zhang Xueming was stunned.

She held a mouthful of rice in her mouth and forgot to chew it. She stared straight at herself with her eyes open, and there was still a trace of black pepper sauce on her pink lips.

"This expression is so cute, I kind of want to take a photo of it."

Lu Zhengyi said with a smile. He couldn't help but stand up, took a piece of paper on the side and gently wiped the sauce on her lips.

"Meow!"

Next to him, Ayong's cat face had some unconcealable emotions. After barking, he picked up his rice bowl, jumped to the ground, and ran away.

"But regarding the filming of the next drama, I may come back halfway. If you really miss me, I can transfer and come back for one night."

Through the thin tissue, Zhang Xueming could feel the warmth on her fingers, and her face instantly turned red. But before she could react, she heard the person opposite continued to speak.

"I talked with Lao Zhang about the filming of The Grudge 2 this afternoon. It's March now. If the preparations are completed, it will probably be early or mid-April when we can go to Heguo to start filming."

"So by the time the filming is finished, it might be June or July."

"But I have to go back to China for some business in June, so I have to stop filming in the middle."
