Chapter 254 Cats and Cats Attack
Recently, in addition to his work on the crew, Liu Wangxue has been following this list to learn about these directors and watch their works.
Some directors have become famous through their works, such as the master and apprentice pair of Meng Huadong and Jing Yujun; there are also some new generation directors that Liu Wangxue is not very familiar with, such as Meng Huadong’s daughter, Meng Luoqiu.
Meng Luoqiu studied in China and was Jing Yujun's senior. After graduation, she went to the United States for graduate studies and then went to work at the Naolai House. She actually made a name for herself in that place where Chinese people struggle to survive, and was able to work with several well-known directors to shoot films.
Meng Luoqiu had already touched the ceiling of the Nao Lai House. Even if she stayed any longer, her yellow skin's natural "disadvantage" meant that she would not have a greater breakthrough or higher achievement. Moreover, her original purpose of coming here was to "learn from the barbarians to defeat them", so she decided to return home.
But what I learned from the Naolai House would definitely not be accepted in China. Meng Luoqiu was in great pain for a while when she first came back. She had known that there were many restrictions in China, but she didn't expect that there would be even more restrictions when she was actually doing the operation.
The first film she made after returning to China has not been released since it was finished. In addition, the film was not specially prepared for foreign film festivals, so even if it was submitted, it would not make much of a splash.
After that, Meng Luoqiu stopped working for a long time and concentrated on studying with her father Meng Huadong.
Later, she gathered a team and filmed a low-cost "martial arts + suspense" themed web drama just for practice. Unexpectedly, the response after it was broadcast was better than expected.
Meng Luoqiu regained her confidence and focused on this type of subject matter. She later made two movies, both of which were box office hits. The voices on the Internet that had previously been pessimistic about her turned into praises.
The movie that Liu Wangxue watched today was directed by Meng Luoqiu, and it was also her first attempt at a fantasy theme.
The film was scheduled before the filming of "Moonrise Spring Stream" started. Jing Yujun had already promoted it in the crew and even paid for movie tickets for everyone, asking them to go and support his senior sister. He himself was unable to attend the premiere of the film because of filming, which was a pity.
Everyone in the crew went to see the movie one after another, but Liu Wangxue would go home when there were no night scenes, so she had no chance to come to the cinema. She was always thinking about it.
It happened that she had a day off, and after searching, she found that the movie was still in theaters, so she went to watch it with Xu Qingsong.
This movie is still of Meng Luoqiu's usual standard. The camera language is delicate and rich, the emotional expression is precise, and there is no dragging where it should be clean and neat. The picture composition makes science students ecstatic and cures the obsessive-compulsive disorder of countless people.
As Liu Wangxue watched, she couldn't help but wonder how her script would be presented by the director.
Liu Wangxue expressed a little regret: "What a pity, it is this special effect that lowers the director's level."
Xu Qingsong asked her: "Fairy, are you going to choose this director to work with?"
Liu Wangxue laughed and said, "This is not something that I can decide. My opinion can only be used as a reference. The specific arrangements will depend on Sister Yunxiang."
"Oh," Xu Qingsong continued, "So it seems that you have decided to sell the copyright to Sister Yunxiang?"
Liu Wangxue took a sip of the milk tea and denied his words: "No, I will not give in before I see the sample."
"So determined?"
Liu Wangxue nodded: "So, Mr. Xu, I suggest you hurry up, this will be beneficial to all three of us."
Xu Qingsong picked up another cup of milk tea and clinked it with hers: "Okay! Fairy, please wait for good news."
Liu Wangxue nodded and smiled, leaning back on the sofa, and resting her hand holding the milk tea on her thigh. Just as she was about to turn around and say something to Xu Qingsong, Xiaoci suddenly rushed over, leaned over the milk tea cup, and took a sip from the straw.
In the movie, the protagonists escaped from the cave, and the screen lit up. With the light from the screen shining over, Xu Qingsong clearly saw the cat's eyes widened with surprise and its ears erected.
He couldn't help but applaud: "Wow - when did it master this skill?"
Liu Wangxue pinched the skin on the back of Xiaoci's neck. The cat still bit the straw, so she had to remove the cup, and the straw was pulled out of the cup lid.
Xu Qingsong was worried that the milk tea would spill on Liu Wangxue, so he quickly reached out to catch it, but the remaining milk tea in the straw still dripped onto her pants.
Liu Wangxue ignored it. She pinched Xiaoci's cheeks and forced it to spit out the straw: "You are so rebellious. You actually took advantage of my unpreparedness to launch a sneak attack!"
She took the tissue from Xu Qingsong, wiped the cat's mouth first, and then wiped her pants: "Look, what you did! Let me tell you, five days of snacks are gone!"
Pengpeng glanced over here and continued watching the movie.
Gua Gua stood on the back of the sofa, flapped his wings, and imitated Liu Wangxue: "Gone! Gone!"
Xiaoci raised his paws to struggle, but Liu Wangxue clamped it with both hands and rubbed it hard: "I will teach you a lesson--"
Since they had almost finished eating, Xu Qingsong moved the table away to prevent the cat from doing anything else.
After Liu Wangxue finished rubbing the cat, he held the cat in his arms and said, "Stay still."
Xu Qingsong reached out and gently pulled Xiaoci's ear: "You are too capable, aren't you? Even dogs are not as smart as you."
Peng Peng: “Woof!” I’m good!
Xu Qingsong quickly comforted her: "I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about other dogs."
He asked Liu Wangxue: "This cat wasn't like this before, what happened this time?"
Liu Wangxue thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that I fed it tea last time?"
"Huh?" Xu Qingsong didn't know what to say, "You feed a cat tea?"
Liu Wangxue said: "It wanted to try it, so I fed it some hawthorn and tangerine peel tea, and it liked it very much."
Xiaoci broke free with one of her paws and stretched it towards Xu Qingsong. Xu Qingsong then hugged the cat and said to her with a smile: "What can I say about you? This is not the way to pamper someone. This is called spoiling. Do you understand?"
Liu Wangxue reflected: "Indeed, it has the guts to snatch it directly from my hand. No, I must keep a close watch on it from now on."
Xiao Ci sat obediently in Xu Qingsong's arms and endured Liu Wangxue's scolding with her ears drooping.
It was almost ten o'clock after the movie. Xu Qingsong had originally planned to go home today, but it would be too late to drive home at this time, so he and Liu Wangxue went back to the hotel and booked a new room.
While I was waiting for Xu Qingsong to register in the hotel lobby, I happened to meet the crew coming back.
Jing Yujun took one look at what the two were carrying and teased, "Writer Liu, are you taking advantage of my kindness to give you a day off to go out on a date and go shopping?"
