1016. Sense of space(1/4)

In Guo Fan's silence, Xu Xin's tone was quite relaxed.

It was as if those three heart-wrenching questions didn't come out of his mouth.

Moreover, as if he didn't think these three problems were "strong" enough, he just reached level 6 and activated his ultimate move:

"If I remember correctly, Yang Mi just gave your wife a few boxes of fish maw and bird's nest last week, right?...How many months has it been?"

"..."

At this time, the muscles on Guo Fan's face became completely "stiff".

Whispered:

"5 months."

His wife Sun Ran is five months pregnant.

February next year is the due date.

"Is the five million in your pocket enough to support your children and pay off your mortgage?"

"..."

Now, he really didn't know what to say.

Xu Xin stopped pursuing this pursuit and just said to himself:

"For men, starting a family and starting a business is easy to say, but actually very difficult to do. But starting a family and starting a career have something in common, that is, they both require a sense of responsibility on men's shoulders. This sense of responsibility can be given by money or by companionship.

Created with communication... it can be ever-changing, and in the end it is inseparable from daily necessities. I don’t believe that a director whose first film has a box office of 700 million is what a fool. Even if you are a hero created by the times, so what?

?... By the way, what have you done with your wife in the past few months since you came to the United States? Who will take care of her? "

"My mother...and my father-in-law and mother-in-law."

"Well."

Hearing this, as a person who has experienced this, Xu Xin couldn't help but say:

"Let me give you a suggestion. I can help you find a house with a nice environment here. You'd better bring your wife over to stay with her... If your wife is pregnant and you're not around, this kind of thing can be easy to say or not.

My daughter-in-law is pregnant, and you leave your family and career to come to the United States to escape for peace? It’s not appropriate.”

"It's not that I'm hiding from Qingjing. The main thing is... I don't want to make youth movies anymore. I'm actually quite interested in science fiction movies and I want to study..."

"But the problem is that your wife is pregnant."

Xu Xin was a little speechless.

I've made it clear in my heart that I'm just a director.

The result... is the same as the director of the subdistrict office.

Do you still have to worry about other people’s daily lives?

Just like a big parent.

"Originally, it was quite sudden that you came to see me this time. During that time, I was busy with "Broken Silence" and didn't think much about it... Now that I think about it, it's really not appropriate. Either you go back to China to accompany your wife,

Or you can bring her over and help you raise the fetus.

After I finish filming this movie, you still have to study for a month, and it’s already the end of December when you go back. My wife is pregnant, how many months will you stay away from home? Doesn’t that make you a scumbag?”

"Well……"

Guo Fan seemed to want to say something.

But I don’t know what to say…

On the one hand it's touching, on the other hand it's absurd.

I feel that Director Xu’s concern is too broad...

Seeing that he didn't speak, Xu Xin decided directly:

"Let's put it this way. I'll find a house for you. I still have a few friends here in Los Angeles. You can bring people over. The climate here and other things are also suitable for vacation and raising babies. Only if there is no fire in your backyard.

Follow me and work in a down-to-earth manner. As for whether to make a youth film or not... you decide for yourself. But my advice to you is to continue making one, with a higher share, and choose a solid script, even if it is not brilliant...

...But a movie can earn at least 1,000 to 8 million, which can be considered a small-scale financial freedom. Raise children, support a wife, there is no pressure at home, nothing to do, and you can devote yourself to creation better.

.This is my opinion.”

He gave the final verdict.

Guo Fan thought he had a chance to appeal and said:

"Then I'll think about it..."

"Don't think about the former, this matter is settled. Either you go back to accompany your wife, or you take her over. As for the movie... you think about it slowly. That's it... Mengmeng, if he takes Sun Ran over

Come here, tell Sister Mo to find some nannies, assistants, etc. who can take care of people here."

"I know, Brother Xu."

Su Meng, whose mouth smelled like lemon, responded crisply.

Although intellectually speaking, Brother Xu is a little worried...

What's more, whether it's a house, a nanny, an assistant, etc., it costs a lot of money.

But for Brother Xu...it's drizzle.

To exaggerate a bit, the money has already been earned within a few breaths.

Tsk…

My damn handsome, rich, kind-hearted and nosy dog ​​boss...

She complained in her mind.

Except sometimes they are dogs, not people.

Sometimes I am still a human being.



September 7th.

9 am.

Including Liu Yifei and Keanu Reeves, all the crew members from the first stage of filming, a total of more than 70 people, came to the outskirts of San Fernando, next to Los Angeles.

Paramount's own film factory is located here.

In the corner, a villa was already crowded with people.

Except for Liu Momo and Georgia, the other foreigners looked at Xu Xin who was burning incense and praying in front of the camera, their eyes full of curiosity about Eastern witchcraft.

There are no opening ceremonies in Hollywood.

Although they also have some folk taboos, such as the number 666 and lucky rabbit's feet, they have not formed a particularly specific system.

Usually, the opening ceremony is more like a kind of publicity.

For example, early this morning, thanks to Paramount's marketing, there was news that "Perfect Strangers" director Goethe Hsu and Keanu Reeves were launching a new film.

This is external.

Internally, it was very simple. The director gave some opening speeches and then clapped his hands to signal everyone to start filming.

Seems pretty simple.

They had never seen Xu Xin's mysterious oriental ritual before.

But it looks quite fresh.

It seems that as long as it is linked to some kind of voodoo or witchcraft and is rendered mysterious, everyone is more interested in it.

Of course, then again.

In Xu Xin's eyes, the so-called American horror is actually bloody in addition to blood. The so-called voodoo spells, witches and wizards are just a joke.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Just kidding... He would rather have a pale-faced vampire knock on the door in the middle of the night than have no one at the door and just a pair of embroidered shoes on the ground.

The former will suffer the most.

The latter is torture both mentally and physically.

But anyway, as the director of photography and others put the incense into the incense burner with some novelty, Xu Xin personally unveiled the red cover of the camera, and the filming of "John Wick" officially started.

The first scene is the daily routine of John Wick and the dog named "Daisy" waking up in bed.

This 8-month-old beagle has no special training.

In the first scene, it is the scene where he licks Keanu's face to wake him up.

Frankly speaking, this play is not difficult for humans.

Xu Xin would not let Brother Ji fight with his old arms and legs on the first day.

The filming of the movie has just started and it’s already a warm-up.

But for a dog, especially an untrained dog, it is still relatively difficult for him to lick Brother Ji's face accurately.
