Martin Groz and others left, while Mu Ying was taken directly to his hotel room by Xiao Yao. ?? Bayi? Chinese W≈W=W≤. =8=1≈Z=W≠. COM

Muying unceremoniously sat down on the sofa in the room, looked at Xiao Yao with a smile, and said, "They asked you to be the director, but you wrote the script for them. You really have the opportunity to make a short film for BMW. It’s very rare, is your work in China very important? Can’t you just turn it down?”

"I don't have much work these days." Xiao Yao poured two glasses of water, handed one to Muying, and then sat down on the sofa opposite him and said, "But in a week or so, I will be involved in the writing of the screenplay. A TV series is about to start broadcasting. At that time, I have promotional activities to participate in, and I may even appear on variety shows. BMW’s short film project has to be approved by their high-level discussions before it can be approved. In addition to the preparatory work in the early stage, I I think it will take at least a week to start. At that time, it may just conflict with my time to promote the TV series."

What Xiao Yao was talking about was "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky". The shooting and post-production were completed last year, and the rights to broadcast were sold at the beginning of the year. At the screening at the beginning of the year, the four satellite TVs jointly purchased the round-robin broadcasting rights. After coordinating the schedule, the TV series was scheduled to be broadcast in late March. The producer and these local satellite TVs will also have a series of promotional activities at that time . He took out his notebook and placed it on the tea table in front of the sofa, opened it,

At this film festival, the reason why Ye Jiaying did not accompany Xiao Yao, and did not go to Shencheng to participate in the brand press conference of Xiao Yao and Yin Xi in advance like Xiao Siqi, was because of being the person in charge of Qi Jia Studio She is going to negotiate with Winter Sunshine and four local satellite TVs to confirm the promotion of the TV series. Although Xiao Yao only played a cameo in one scene, not even a supporting actor, but as one of the screenwriters of this play, he is also considered a good point of publicity. Ye Jiaying had already mentioned to Xiao Yao that she wanted to arrange for him to participate in promotional activities after the TV series was broadcast. Xiao Yao had participated in promotional activities when "Ling Yun Zhi" was broadcast, and this time it was a TV series in which his family invested, and of course Xiao Yao readily agreed.

"Have you ever written a script for a TV series?" Muying asked in surprise, "You wrote and acted yourself? If you don't know, you're the director, right?"

"No," Xiao Yao shook his head and said, "That TV series was filmed last year. It has more than 30 episodes. I'm not that good. I'm just one of the two screenwriters. By the way, I made a guest appearance in it. There is no soy sauce role. The director of the TV series is the well-known director Sun Zhihao in China, not me."

"It's just one of the co-screenwriters, so your promotional weight shouldn't be too important, so let's push it," Muying said, "I think the opportunity of this commercial director is much more important than your promotional TV series."

"It's a TV series that our studio invested in, and I promised my mother a long time ago." Xiao Yao shook his head and said, "The director and the protagonist are also people who are very close to me, so I can't and don't want to push it. "

"Then there's no need to reject it now,

"Mu Ying said, "You said that BMW's short film project will take at least a week, but in my opinion, it is not impossible to start after a month. What if your promotional activities are over when the shooting starts, then how can you Didn't you just waste an opportunity with nothing to do? "

"As long as I think about it, I can always find something to do." Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Besides, I'm still a student and still in school."

"I'm also a student, so you still recommend me to be a director of short films?" Mu Ying said.

"Graduate students are different from undergraduate students... Well..." Xiao Yao said halfway, seeing Muying's contemptuous eyes, and then smiled wryly, "Well, actually, I really think that I may not be able to shoot now. What a short film about BMW, I'm not sure, so I don't want to make it."

"You don't want to shoot, so let me go! You really take care of me." Muying rolled her eyes and said.

"Didn't you say that you don't have much opportunity to direct in the United States? It's not bad to practice your skills with this," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Although it is an advertisement, it is essentially a short film. With BMW's strength, they should invite A big star is coming to play the lead role. The chance to direct a big star, don't tell me you don't want to."

"What's the use of thinking?" Muying said, "You're just recommending, and BMW may not necessarily let me take the film. And the bigger the actor, the smaller the chance for me to be the director."

"That's why I kept you here," Xiao Yao said, "Help me improve the script together, so that your chances will be even greater."

"There is such a righteous reason for asking people to help," Mu Ying smiled with a thumbs up, "I admire it!"

The two were chatting when Xiao Yao's cell phone rang again suddenly. Xiao Yao took it out and saw that it was an unfamiliar phone number again.

"Won't another one come to ask me to shoot an advertisement?" Xiao Yao answered the phone in doubt.

This time, it wasn't that another company wanted to ask Xiao Yao to shoot an advertisement, but the person in charge of a well-known European video website called, wanting to ask Xiao Yao to buy the online broadcasting right of the short movie "Tuner".

Xiao Yao is naturally very interested in things that can make money, and immediately expressed his willingness to sell the online broadcasting rights of "The Tuner". However, Xiao Yao did not plan to participate in the specific bargaining process. This time, he brought Fang Yiran over here to do this, so after he made an appointment with the other party for a specific time to meet and discuss tomorrow, he went to the next door and knocked on Fang Yiran's room. door, inform and let him be in charge of the negotiations with the other party tomorrow.

Since it is necessary to discuss the sale of the network broadcasting rights tomorrow, it is definitely impossible for others to fly to Huaxia to negotiate, so the original plan to return to Huaxia tomorrow has to be postponed. Just when Fang was still about to call the airline to change the ticket, Xiao Yao's cell phone rang again. Xiao Yao answered the call, and it turned out to be another call from another well-known European video website, with the same purpose of purchasing the online broadcasting right of "The Tuner".

It seems that the title of "Most Audience Award" is coming into play, so that things have something to talk about. Xiao Yao estimated that there might be similar calls today and tomorrow, so he simply set up call forwarding on his mobile phone, and directly forwarded all incoming calls to Fang Yiran, let her deal with the matter, and then went back to his room.

"Congratulations." After Xiao Yao came back, Mu Ying, who knew what happened, said enviously.

"Thank you! When the script is finished, I'll treat you to a drink!" Xiao Yao said with a smile.

Just as he was talking, Xiao Yao's mobile phone suddenly made a "ding" notification sound. Xiao Yao checked it, and found that the mobile phone displayed that the bound mailbox had received a new email.

"BMW has sent the information." Xiao Yao turned on the laptop, clicked on the email and read it. Then I connected the computer to the printer in the room, printed the information and handed it to Mu Yingdao, "Let's take a look first, and then we will think about how to express the characteristics of the vehicle in the short film."

"Okay, let's start!" Muying took the materials and said, "I won't leave tonight, the script is done, let's drink and celebrate."

The two of them worked until the early hours of the morning before finally finishing the script. Xiao Yao added Muying's name to the completed script and gave it to Martin Groz. Mu Ying also sent some of her proud works and some shot designs for Xiao Yao's script to Martin Groz's mailbox, striving for the opportunity to direct this short film for herself. After that, the two moved out all the wine from the mini bar in the room, and discussed the scripts of the next few BMW movies while drinking.

When Fang Yiran and Pei Minyi came to knock on Xiao Yao's door the next day, Xiao Yao, who was awakened by the doorbell, opened his eyes and found that he and Mu Ying were both clothed and crooked on the sofa, and there was a pile of messy things on the coffee table in front of them. empty wine bottle.

Xiao Yao yawned big, rubbed his eyes and opened the door. After finding Fang Yiran and Pei Minyi, he turned his head and went back to the room, leaning on the sofa again.

"I answered a few more calls last night. In addition to European video sites, American video sites also contacted me. They all wanted to buy the right to broadcast your short film online. I made appointments with them one by one. The ticket has been rebooked to five days later." Fang still followed Xiao Yao into the room and said as he walked.

"Oh, I got it!" Xiao Yao leaned on the sand, closed his eyes and said.

"How much did you drink last night?" Fang Yiran asked, looking at Mu Ying, who was still sleeping soundly on the sofa, and the pile of empty wine bottles on the coffee table.

"That's all!" Xiao Yao pointed to the dozen or so small empty wine bottles on the coffee table, "The mini wine cabinet is all here, but we didn't buy anything else or send it to the hotel, so there isn't much in total."

"Then can you go with us to discuss broadcasting rights with the people on the website in the morning?" Fang Yiran asked again. The mini wine cabinet in the hotel room is filled with small bottles of tens of milliliters. Although the dozen or so bottles on the coffee table look scary, you really have to count them. In fact, they are about two bottles of ordinary 750 milliliter bottles. , The two drank separately, and Xiao Yao didn't drink a bottle to the point where he couldn't get out of bed.

"Yes, but I don't want to go." Xiao Yao still closed his eyes and said, "You can take Minyi with you. I will squint for a while, and when Muying wakes up and leaves, I have to go out to do other things. "

"Other things?" Fang Yiran said, "What else do you need?"

"Let's play." Xiao Yao said, "You have been playing for four or five days, and I have only played for half a day. I don't care about the bargaining, and it's not easy to leave you alone and go back to the country. Of course, I want to find a place to play. .”

"Where are you going to play?" Pei Minyi said, "Why don't I accompany you, anyway, you don't necessarily need me to accompany you when you go to business negotiations like that."

"I'm going to learn skydiving from Qila, are you going too?" Xiao Yao smiled.

"Uh..." Pei Minyi hesitated when she thought of that exciting skydiving experience.

"The club in Qila's family has the qualifications for training and issuing skydiving licenses." Xiao Yao said, "After 10 hours of training and 25 independent skydives, you can get the most basic skydiving license, and you don't have to be from your home country. People, foreigners can also take the test there. Qila said that the fastest student in their club got the skydiving license in a week, and I plan to take the test in five days. If you go, you have to take the license test like I did. Just come out."

"Forget it, I'll stay with Miss Yiran." Pei Minyi said immediately.

It wasn't until after ten o'clock in the morning that Mu Ying woke up from the sofa. After a brief wash, Muying said goodbye to Xiao Yao and left. Unlike Xiao Yao, who still has the rights to broadcast online, Mu Ying booked an evening flight back to the United States.

After sending Mu Ying away, Xiao Yao took a shower, called Teacher Cui in China and asked for five more days off, then contacted Qila Bea, and went to her family's skydiving club.

After three days of comparison and negotiation, Fang still successfully sold the online broadcast rights of "The Tuner" to a British video website and an American video website. Inspired by this, Xiao Yao also canceled his original plan to upload the short film to domestic video websites for free. He planned to sell the domestic network broadcast rights of the short film after returning to China. With the award and honor in hand, he should be able to sell it Offer a good price.

In the next two days, Fang Yiran and Pei Minyi, who were fine, went to the skydiving club with Xiao Yao. Of course, they will not take the skydiving license test like Xiao Yao, but just watch on the sidelines when they have nothing to do. Seeing Xiao Yao do two or three hours of movement exercises on the ground a day, and then jump off the plane six or seven times a day, both of them feel tired and flustered.

After five days of hard training and practice, Xiao Yao obtained his D-level skydiving license as he wished, and brought Fang Yiran and Pei Minyi back to China with satisfaction.

After returning to Shencheng, Xiao Yao took two days off from school, which was considered a two-day rest. After receiving Ye Jiaying's notice, he asked the school for leave again and flew to Shonan with Pei Minyi. This time, he will go to Shonan Satellite TV to participate in a variety show with interviews and games -- "Happy Camp".

Like "Everyday Upward", this is also a program with the same name and similarity to the previous life, except that it has a different host from the previous life. It is still one of the two ace programs of Shonan Satellite TV in the world.

The recording of "Happy Camp" is scheduled to take place on Thursday afternoon. Although Xiao Yao has no obsession with asking for leave since he went to college, after all, he has already taken leave for almost three weeks. The principle of one day please, Xiao Yao arrived at Shonan Changsha only at noon on Thursday, was picked up from the hotel by the program team from the airport, put down his luggage, and after a hasty lunch, Xiao Yao and Pei Minyi rushed to Shonan TV without stopping TV building.

There are a total of five guests in this episode of the show. It is said that apart from Xiao Yao, the other four guests are the four leading actors in this TV series, Zhao Rui, Zhu Zitong, Xu Fei and Ye Xing.

Xiao Yao was the last of the five to arrive. After entering the guest lounge under the leadership of the program staff, Xiao Yao also met these friends who hadn't seen for a long time.
