My wife always wants me, a big star, to eat soft rice

Chapter 71 Find Xu Mulin as Director

After hearing Xu Ziyi's words, Lu Ming smiled and said, "I don't want my wife to know that I'm making a movie for now."

Xu Ziyi couldn't understand why Lu Ming wanted to hide it from his wife. Of course, this was a matter between their husband and wife, and there might be some special reasons.

Xu Ziyi said at this time: "Director Lu, why don't you let my dad read your script, if he is interested, maybe he will accept the drama you want to shoot."

Lu Ming asked suspiciously, "Who is your father?"

Xu Ziyi replied, "My father is Xu Mulin."

Hearing this, Lu Ming was stunned.

Xu Mulin?
Xu Ziyi's father is actually Xu Mulin?

This……

Xu Mulin is one of the most well-known directors in China. The films and TV dramas he shoots are basically popular. He is currently filming "Love Apartment".

And Xu Mulin has already signed a contract with Shiyue Media. He is equivalent to the director of Shiyue Media. Normally, he will not take on film and television dramas other than Shiyue Group.

Lu Ming never expected such a coincidence to meet the daughter of great director Xu Mulin in Chen Hai's studio.

However, although Xu Ziyi is Xu Mulin's daughter, Xu Mulin is the contracted director of Shiyue Media after all, and he probably won't be involved in external film and television dramas.

Secondly, if he did pick it up, Shi Yue Media probably asked him to pick it up, and Shi Huan probably already knew what he was doing by then.

Thinking of this, Lu Ming said: "Don't bother Director Xu, he is the signed director of Shiyue Media, if he recognizes me, he will probably tell my wife about it."

Xu Ziyi said: "Director Lu, you don't have to worry too much. If I tell my dad to help you hide this matter, then he will definitely not tell Dong Shi about it."

"And my dad's contract with Shiyue Media expired last month, and he has no plans to renew the contract."

Xu Mulin is already a great director, no matter which film and television company he wants to work for, any company will want him, and others are begging him to make film and television dramas, so there is no need for him to sign a contract with a certain film and television company.

If he can get out of the limitations of the contracting company, then he will be able to receive more scripts he likes. For him, receiving the TV series or movies he likes to make is happier than making more money.

A great director like him has long since stopped caring about economic interests when making film and television dramas. The reason why he still pays attention to the market is that cultural works cannot be divorced from the public, and on the other hand, there are requirements from the production company.

But after he left the contracted company, he no longer had to pay too much attention to the economic value of a film and television drama, he could shoot what he wanted.

Xu Ziyi thought that Lu Ming helped her match her relationship with Chen Hai, so she should naturally repay Lu Ming, so she planned to bring her father over and ask her father to help her repay the favor.

Although she has no plans to enter the entertainment industry, she knows that her father's status in the entertainment industry is still very high, and his father's control over the film and television drama market is more precise than any director.

Her father can tell at a glance whether there is a market for Lu Ming to shoot film and television dramas. If her father can give Lu Ming some advice, it will definitely be of great benefit to the development of Tianmeng Company. detour.

After hearing Xu Ziyi's words, Lu Ming pondered for a moment. If it is true what Xu Ziyi said, well, if Xu Mulin no longer renews his contract with Shiyue Media, maybe he can really help him film "Charlotte" Special Trouble".

The most important point is that Xu Mulin is a great director, and he has a very wide network of contacts. It will be more convenient to hire actors when the time comes.

The movie "Charlotte Annoyance" still needs some actors with more acting skills, otherwise it will definitely be very awkward to shoot.

But having said that, hiring an actor these days can easily cost tens of millions of dollars. I am afraid that there are not many actors that Xu Mulin knows that he can afford at present. His movie is positioned as a low-cost movie.

Of course, these are all things for later, and it depends on whether Xu Mulin is willing to accept his movie. It is said that Xu Mulin does not like the script, he generally will not accept it, even if it is the task of the contract company, he would rather No breach of contract will be accepted.

Moreover, Xu Mulin is still filming "Love Apartment" in Dreamland, and he doesn't know how many episodes "Love Apartment" has been filmed. If "Love Apartment" can't be finished for a while, he will definitely not wait for Xu Mulin to finish filming "Love Apartment" just started filming "Charlotte Annoyance".

Time is money and life, "Charlotte Annoyance" is his water test movie, it is better to shoot it as soon as possible to see the results.

Thinking of this, Lu Ming said to Xu Ziyi: "Director Xu is still filming the Love Apartment in Dreamland, so he probably doesn't have time?"

Xu Ziyi replied, "I can help you first by asking how many episodes of iPartment are still unfilmed."

"My dad shoots TV series very fast, and can finish filming a TV series in a month or two."

Lu Ming said: "Well, okay, you can ask Director Xu first, if he is free, I can show him the script and see if he is willing to accept the film."

Xu Ziyi said: "Okay, I'll ask him now."

Having said that, Xu Ziyi took out her mobile phone and sent Xu Mulin a WeChat message. She was afraid that Xu Mulin was filming, so she didn't call.

At this moment.

The shooting scene of Love Apartment.

"Shut! Okay, let's rest for half an hour. The actors hurry up and change their clothes." After Xu Mulin finished speaking, he immediately took out the mobile phone in his pocket. Because of work, his mobile phone was set to vibrate mode , as long as someone sends him a message, he can feel it.

Xu Mulin took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and found that it was a WeChat message sent by his daughter. This is a rare thing, so Xu Mulin quickly unlocked the phone, and then went to WeChat to check.

Xu Ziyi's message was very simple, just to ask if he was free.

Xu Mulin then replied: "My precious daughter asked me if I was free. As a father, of course I have to answer that no matter how busy I am."

On the other side, after Xu Ziyi saw the news, he curled his lips, and then sent a message asking: "Dad, is the filming of iPartment almost finished? My friend is going to make a film and television drama, and I plan to ask you to read the script."

Seeing this, Xu Mulin immediately became vigilant, and then asked, "Friend? Male friend or female friend?"

Xu Ziyi was a little speechless, why was her father so sensitive to this thing, she then replied: "Ordinary friends."

Xu Mulin saw that Xu Ziyi was unwilling to disclose any information, so he didn't ask any further, and he directly sent a message saying: "There is still a week at most, and the filming of the iPartment will be finished. What is your friend going to film?" Drama? Is it a movie or a TV series?"

Xu Ziyi replied: "It should be a movie."

Xu Mulin directly sent a voice over and said, "How about this, I'll close the shift early later, and ask your friend to prepare the script, and I'll take a look in person."

Xu Mulin thought to himself that he hadn't seen his daughter for a long time, and it was time to see how she was doing.

As for the matter of Xu Ziyi's friend, he didn't take it to heart at all, after all, there were not many scripts that could make him fall in love.
