Chapter 710 Find someone to lighten the burden
In the huge villa, in the nearly [-]-square-meter master room, there are only Zhou Xia and Xiaohu. The two of them are laughing and playing, but there is no taboo.

Even if the villa's aunts and security guards are elsewhere, there is no need to worry about them hearing.

"Yiyi, what are you doing? My stomach hurts!" Xiaohu said coquettishly, rubbing her belly after Zhou Xia threw her onto the big boat.

"Really, then you were so happy just now..." Zhou Xia sneered, he really is a person who thinks he is upright.

"Hmph, you don't know how to make people happy, so why don't you say rub it for me!" Xiaohu said dissatisfied.

"What's all this, I have goosebumps all over my body hearing your words, these are old couples, and they still do this..." Zhou Xia was really struck by lightning, and couldn't help but sarcastically said.

"It's boring, I won't tell you, go take a shower!"

"Boring? Then come back to me, and I'll let you know what fun is!"

Zhou Xia didn't know how to listen to the little fox, so he immediately started to move, and the little fox was tired of dealing with it, laughing and playing with him.

…………

Waking up early the next day, Zhou Xia finished his morning kung fu and martial arts, and couldn't help being a little dissatisfied.

Speaking of which, it is now 2014, and as early as the beginning of the year before last, Li Lianjie suggested that he find some people who are good at martial arts to be bodyguards, so that he can have time to practice duels to improve his actual combat ability.

The bodyguards were found, and some of them were descendants of various so-called sects, boxing techniques, and martial arts, but he almost never asked them to practice duels, and kept them for nothing.

Usually when traveling, because of busy work, there is no time to arrange sparring, so ordinary bodyguards follow. Now two years have passed, and Zhou Xia has found that he has practiced martial arts to the point where he has practiced in the morning.

He can perform most martial arts routines flexibly and easily, but his physical fitness, strength, etc. have not improved, and in fact he has not made much progress.

This year, I must reduce my workload, do many things I like, and practice martial arts well.

I went to see Lao Mouzi this morning, just in time for him to share some work!
Zhou Xia made up his mind secretly, instead of calling Xiaohu who was still asleep, he hurriedly ate breakfast, took Xiaobai by car and went directly to Lao Mouzi's studio.

Since Lao Mouzi's studio moved out of the Film Academy, it has remained in the same place and hasn't changed much.

After Zhou Xia went in, he found that the atmosphere was still the same. There were pictorials of Lao Mouzi's works on the wall, full of strong personal color.

"Director Zhou, you're here so early, please come inside."

The studio is not big. Zhou Xia had just entered through the gate, when he heard movement inside, Assistant Pang and a few others came out, followed by Lao Mouzi.

"Isn't this an appointment?" Zhou Xia smiled, walked forward quickly, and shook hands with Lao Mouzi: "Director, it's been a while, I'm more energetic than at the movie premiere last time, it looks like Like you said, the busier you are at work, the happier you are."

Lao Mouzi is over sixty years old, but he is still in good spirits, and looks about ten years younger.

"Hehe, I can't compare with you young people. I'm a fool and I'm too tired. Please come inside." Lao Mouzi said modestly, and asked Zhou Xia to go to his office.

"Director Zhang is really simple. It has been three years since I came to your place last time, and this place is still the same as before."

Zhou Xia was very familiar with this place, and followed Lao Mouzi into his office, and saw that the furnishings were still the same, with a small reception room outside, a large conference room and a small office inside.

"I'm used to it, so I don't bother to move, but we have changed everything about this computer. Please sit down, Zhou Xia, what would you like to drink?"

"Director, don't be polite to me. I'll pour what I want to drink myself. I plan to have dinner with you this morning. I'm embarrassed if you do this."

Zhou Xia joked lightly.

I think that when he was filming "The Hawthorn Tree", he often had dinner with Lao Mouzi, ate oil-splashed noodles, mutton steamed buns, etc. specially prepared for him by the crew, and often joked with him. In the past few years, he also Calling to say hello during New Years and holidays, usually invited to participate in movie premieres, Lao Mouzi sometimes comes, sometimes not, obviously the relationship is a bit estranged.

"Hehe, I didn't expect you to be like this." Seeing Zhou Xia like this, Lao Mouzi couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.

"I've been like this all my life, and I can't change it. Director, you didn't attend the premiere of my "New Detective". Have you watched my movie recently?"

"I saw it, that is, before New Year's Day, everyone is on holiday, so I watched it. It is indeed a good movie. It is impossible for a director who does not really understand martial arts and action scenes to make it. It is no wonder that the audience likes to watch it, and now it is a breakthrough. 30 billion."

Lao Mouzi said with emotion that Zhou Xia's movie is very different from the "Hero" he once made. It can be seen that people who understand martial arts have a more microscopic understanding of action movies, so that they can shoot such wonderful scenes in actual combat. action movie.

Moreover, the domestic film market has developed surprisingly in recent years, and the changes in the box office of movies have made him a little confused. Since "Thirteen Hairpins" was released at the end of 2011, he has passed two full years, and none of them has ever met the audience. I'm afraid I can't keep up with the times.

"Thank you for the director's compliment. I asked you deliberately just to hear your words." Zhou Xia joked happily.

Besides wanting to hear Lao Mouzi's opinion, he also wanted to stimulate Lao Mouzi so that he could share the work with him later.

"You are such a big director, such a big boss, and you are still like this..." Lao Mouzi was also rarely happy, and felt very kind to Zhou Xia who was still so naughty.

"The director was joking. I have only made a few films, and they are all praised by people in the industry. You are the real great director."

"Hehe, times are different." Lao Mouzi shook his head with a wry smile when he heard Zhou Xia's words, and stopped answering his words.

Now that capital is king, whoever sells at the box office, whether it is the media or people in the industry, is flocking to him, he is no longer so popular.

Seeing this, Zhou Xia didn't talk nonsense, and went straight to the topic: "Director, Sister Pang told me about your affairs last night, and I'm here to discuss with you in detail today."

"Tell me." Lao Mouzi nodded.

"It's like this. The company doesn't plan to do the project of "The Great Wall". You know this. The script as a whole doesn't look bad, but in my opinion there are big flaws.

Simply speaking, this movie combines fighting monsters with the Great Wall, which is indeed a big brain hole, but it is actually difficult to operate.Hollywood monster-fighting movies are basically combined with science fiction and fantasy themes.

And this movie is combined with history. The West even stole gunpowder technology from the East. Naturally, the level of technological development at that time could not be high, and there would be technical problems in fighting monsters.

Therefore, it is possible to design many powerful and mysterious oriental elements, but if it is too much, it will not be credible. If you don’t want science fiction and magic, you can let your imagination fly. Once the added elements make the plot illogical due to technical problems, the story will collapse. Talk about infecting and moving the audience, making a successful movie?

That's why the company didn't cooperate with them on this project, and even the plan to acquire Legend has been suspended. I came to the director today because I have another movie to talk to the director. I believe you must be more interested. "

"Oh, what movie is it?" Lao Mouzi was still thinking about what Zhou Xia said about "The Great Wall", but when he heard what he said later, he couldn't help being interested.

Zhou Xia simply said: "Zhu Xian."

"Zhu Xian? Didn't I hear that you have been preparing?" Lao Mouzi suddenly looked at Zhou Xia in surprise.
