Song Xiaotie's words made Jiang Jiang and Song Chuci look at each other in bewilderment. How could it be like this?
Song Xiaotie guessed what the two were thinking and explained, "I actually have a script in my hand that I wrote myself and wanted to film, but I haven't found a suitable heroine."
"To be honest, this script is completely different from my previous style. The story comes from my grandmother, so I dare not shoot it easily."
"But your performance just now reminded me of the heroine. By the way, what's your name?"
When the two introduced themselves just now, Song Xiaotie didn't pay attention to their names, let alone remember them.
"My name is Jiang Jiang."
"Jiang Jiang, what a great name! Let's add him as a WeChat friend. I'll send you the script and see if you're interested. Although this style is different from my previous ones, don't worry, the result will be great."
When Song Chuci took Jiang Jiang out of the hotel, he was still a little confused.
"Are you really going to take this role?"
Jiang Jiang's mind was full of the script he had just read. When Song Chuci asked the question, Jiang Jiang nodded.
"catch."
Song Chuci's brows were furrowed tightly. Although Song Xiaotie was a great director, as he himself said, he had never tried this style of movie before.
Song Chuci knows that there are too many works in the industry that have failed in transformation. Even for the best directors, it is very difficult for them to achieve good results when they involve areas they are not good at.
To Song Chuci, Song Xiaotie's promise to the two of them just now sounded a bit unrealistic.
He didn't want to take this movie.
But Jiang Jiang was not like that. Her eyes were sparkling and Song Chuci could see that Jiang Jiang liked the book very much.
"What if the movie fails..."
Song Chuci was interrupted by Jiang Jiang before he could finish his words.
Jiang Jiang could clearly see the hesitation and struggle in Song Chuci's eyes. She smiled at him, then shook her head firmly at him: "No, I won't give up. This movie will never give up."
Song Chuci wondered if Song Xiaotie had just instilled some kind of magic potion into Jiang Jiang. Where did Jiang Jiang get such confidence?
"You said no, so it won't happen? Don't be fooled by Director Song's words. If the movie was really good, he would have filmed it a long time ago. Why wait until now?"
Jiang Jiang shook his head in disapproval and went over the script in his mind again.
"This script is good, very good. I have seen Director Song's films. Although he is good at commercial dramas, there are many other processing techniques in his films, which are completely suitable for this script."
"Of course, there are difficulties, but I believe Director Song can overcome them."
Jiang Jiang is of course aware that many big-name directors' transitional works often encounter Waterloo, but this does not represent all.
Jiang Jiang will also try his best to assist the director in completing this play.
Song Chuci was a little confused: "Why do you like this movie so much?"
Jiang Jiang looked up at the dark sky and said, "I like the heroine. She looks a bit like me."
Perhaps because he was afraid that Jiang Jiang would go back on his word, Song Xiaotie called the next day and asked Jiang Jiang to come over to sign the contract.
At the same time, he also completely put aside the film he was planning to shoot. Fortunately, that film had not yet been prepared, so he could switch to another film without wasting time.
Although Song Chuci didn't trust Song Xiaotie a little, he still agreed to Jiang Jiang's contract.
After signing the contract, Jiang Jiang took the bus home that day. She had been away for the summer vacation, and school was about to start, so Jiang Jiang had to go back to spend a few days with her father and mother.
Jiang's father and mother now call Jiang Jiang almost every two days. Although they have never asked Jiang Jiang to go back, their words are full of their longing for Jiang Jiang.
Jiang Jiang hasn't spent much time with her parents since she started high school. She didn't feel anything at first, but as their attitudes and concepts changed, Jiang Jiang began to feel a sense of dependence on her parents.
Jiang Jiang took the afternoon train and arrived in Anning City in the evening. Jiang's father knew that Jiang Jiang was coming back, so he drove to the station to pick him up in advance.
Seeing Jiang Jiang, Jiang's father's face was full of joy. He took the luggage from her hand and looked at her carefully: "Have you grown taller? Why are you thinner again? Did you not eat well outside?"
Jiang Jiang smiled helplessly: "My weight hasn't changed, how can I lose weight? I eat well outside. Sometimes I shoot late and have a midnight snack. The actors and directors in the crew often treat me, so I eat very well outside."
Father Jiang didn't listen: "What's the point of eating well? You work a lot and consume a lot of energy. You will lose weight no matter how much you eat. I think you are just tired and thin."
"I really haven't lost weight. If you don't believe me, let's go back and ask mom."
"Okay, go back and ask your mom if you've lost weight! How was the filming? Was it interesting? Did you learn anything? When will the movie be released? I'll invite people to the theater to watch it."
Speaking of Jiang Jiang's filming, Jiang's father became excited again. Although he was reluctant to let his daughter suffer, he fully supported Jiang Jiang's filming.
"It's quite interesting. I've been on the set for three months and learned a lot, especially from the veteran actors. They all have their own experience in filming. When we chat, they talk about it and I benefit a lot from listening to them. It's still early for the movie to be released. It's just finished filming and needs to be edited. After editing, it needs to be submitted for review. There are many steps in between. I'll tell you when it's ready to be released."
Jiang Jiang was also very happy, and he spoke a lot to Jiang's father unconsciously, telling him in detail how the filming was done and some interesting things on the set.
Although Father Jiang didn't understand, he listened with great interest.
As soon as Jiang Jiang got off the car, Jiang's mother came to greet him.
Jiang's mother couldn't stay upstairs, so she couldn't help looking downstairs. When she saw Jiang Jiang, her face was as full of joy as Jiang's father's.
"Are you tired? Are you hungry? I made you some food, come up and heat it up later!"
When the three of them arrived home, the two twins were also sitting on the sofa waiting. When they saw Jiang Jiang, the twins came over, helped carry things, and called her sister sweetly.
They both knew that as long as Jiang Jiang came back, he would definitely bring them delicious and fun things.
Jiang Jiang knew what the two were thinking and handed them a bag. "It's yours."
The twins took it, said thank you, and happily went to check it out.
Jiang's mother heated up the dishes a little and served Jiang Jiang some rice, and then the three of them sat down at the dining table.
"Are you tired from filming? I see you've lost weight."
As soon as Jiang's mother finished speaking, Jiang's father laughed and said, "I told you that you have lost weight, but you still don't believe it."
Jiang Jiang stuffed her mouth with rice and didn't say anything. She could only smile helplessly. She didn't expect that Jiang's father still remembered this incident, nor did she expect that Jiang's mother would say these words as soon as she opened her mouth.
"What's wrong?" Jiang's mother asked hurriedly.
Father Jiang then repeated the conversation he had just had with Jiang Jiang at the station.
Before he could finish his words, Jiang's mother glared at him fiercely: "You are so happy that your daughter has lost weight? Is there any father like you?"
"I'm not happy. I feel bad for the boss too."
Jiang Jiang ate his meal while listening to the two people bickering. He felt that the busyness and fatigue of the past three months disappeared completely at this moment.
Jiang Jiang stayed at home for a few days, and then it was time to go back to school.
Jiang’s family said before that when Jiang Jiang goes to college, the whole family will go to visit Dongda University.
So this time when Jiang Jiang went to school, Jiang's father, Jiang's mother and the twins were all together.
Besides, Jiang Jiang was admitted to the University of Tokyo, the best school in the country! If Jiang Jiang hadn't been admitted, the Jiang family would probably never have been able to get in in their lifetime.
The family was riding on a high-speed train, and there were many other families like the Jiang family, where parents were sending their children to school.
Opposite Jiang Jiang sat a family of three. The child was also a girl, about the same age as Jiang Jiang, and quite pretty. From the moment Jiang Jiang got on the bus, she had been secretly looking at Jiang Jiang from time to time, and even Jiang's mother, who was sitting next to him, noticed it.
"Are your children here to go to school too?" Jiang's mother asked the couple opposite.
The couple across the street were also very friendly, and they started chatting with Jiang's mother: "Yes, they are sending their children to school. Your child has just been admitted to university, right? I think he is about the same age as my daughter."
Jiang's mother nodded. "Yes, she just got in. Which school did your daughter get into?"
"Xi'an University, she didn't perform well in the college entrance examination this year. Originally, the teacher said that she would have a chance of getting into Dongda University!" Although she said this, the middle-aged woman's face was full of pride.
Xi'an University is not bad, and some of its majors are even better than those of Tokyo University, so it was very good that the girl was admitted to Xi'an University.
When the middle-aged woman said this, her voice was not low, so people around could hear it clearly. After hearing it, many people immediately looked towards the girl's face, as if they wanted to see what someone who could be admitted to Xi'an University looked like.
The middle-aged woman felt the gazes of the people around her, and the smile on her face deepened. Her daughter, who was sitting next to her, also had a hint of pride on her face.
When Jiang Jiang looked over with everyone else, the girl looked back at Jiang Jiang openly with contempt in her eyes.
Jiang's mother was also looking at the girl, and naturally noticed the way she looked at Jiang Jiang. She immediately became furious. Did this little girl look down on her Jiang Jiang?
After receiving envious looks from the people around her, the middle-aged woman asked Jiang's mother, "Which school did your child enroll in?"
Although it was an inquiry, the middle-aged woman didn't think Jiang Jiang could get into a good school. In her opinion, generally pretty little girls don't have good grades, and pretty girls don't focus on studying.
Just as Jiang's mother was about to speak, the girl suddenly sneered and whispered to herself, "It must be some fake university!"
Although the train was noisy, Jiang's mother sat close to the girl, so she naturally heard what she said.
Jiang's mother's face immediately turned bad and she pursed her lips tightly.
Seeing this, the middle-aged woman quickly apologized: "My daughter has good grades, so she is a little arrogant, but she didn't mean to say that. I'm sorry, sister."
After that, she reached out and patted the girl on the arm: "Either you don't say anything, or you talk nonsense!"
Although the middle-aged woman's force was not strong, the girl was annoyed: "What's wrong with what I said? She went to a fake university! How can she go to a good university with her condition!"
