Chapter 337 Mr. Wu
Xu Youyou felt that if the story developed according to normal circumstances, it should be this great-grandson who used his status as a junior to force his elders to agree to this matter.
"This is the old man's power. No matter what anyone says, it's useless, but no one thinks there is anything wrong. After all, the old man has been very stubborn all his life. No matter how much he loves his juniors, he will not change his mind because of a few words." Ouyang Ouyang said.
After hearing this, Xu Youyou immediately showed great respect for the old man. As people get older, they tend to be especially fond of younger generations. According to common sense, it is a common scenario for an old man in his nineties to feel sorry for his great-grandson who has lost his parents and grandparents.
But the old man remained cold-hearted even when his great-grandson was crying, making a fuss, and even threatening to hang himself.
"If his son's descendants are useless, what about his daughter? Maybe he prefers his daughter and granddaughter more?" Xu Youyou asked.
Ouyang shook his head helplessly: "His daughter's lineage is now flourishing, but his daughter trusts and respects the old father very much. Even if we promised the most wonderful things, his daughter would not give in to persuade the old father, and even restricted her children from disturbing the old man."
Xu Youyou sighed casually: "My daughter is more caring."
Ouyang Ouyang smiled awkwardly and said, "Boss, the old man really loves his daughter very much. If his daughter is willing to speak up, I'm afraid this matter will be settled."
Xu Youyou shook her head and said, "My daughter is unwilling to speak because she sympathizes with her father. If she doesn't sympathize, according to the old man's black-and-white personality, maybe her daughter's words will be useless."
Ouyang Ouyang was helpless when he heard this logic: "Is there really no way out?"
Seeing how excited he was, Xu Youyou asked again, "Do you really have to go to this cellar?"
Ouyang Ouyang nodded vigorously: "Boss, I have tried other places, and it is precisely because they are not suitable that I have been thinking about this."
Xu Youyou said, "You go and shoot other scenes first. I will personally visit the old man in a few days and ask him what he really thinks."
Ouyang Ouyang had been busy for many days because of this matter. Now after hearing Xu Youyou's promise, he actually felt that the clouds were about to clear and the moon would appear.
"Boss, if you personally take action, you will surely succeed." Ouyang Ouyang said.
Xu Youyou: "Don't flatter me. I've made it clear that I'm just trying to help you. No one can tell whether it will work or not."
Ouyang Ouyang: "Boss, if it doesn't work, I'll have someone dig a few more holes to see if we can make a cellar that's exactly the same as the one in the script."
Although Xu Youyou was thinking about the task of picking up leaks, she came here under the pretext of visiting the crew. That afternoon, she went around the crew.
Liu Xiangyi was excited and distressed. She took a lot of photos with Song Zhibai and handed the food she had prepared in the morning to Song Zhibai's assistant.
"I made these myself. I learned it from the boss's chef... It would be best if Teacher Song likes it. If not, he can do whatever he wants with it..." Liu Xiangyi was very humble in front of her idol.
Song Zhibai's assistant smiled and said, "Sister Liu, don't worry, we will try our best to persuade Teacher Song to eat. If he doesn't want to eat, then we will eat. We will definitely not let Sister Liu's kindness go to waste."
After hearing this, Liu Xiangyi didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
Song Zhibai's agent was also in the crew now. He finally had the opportunity to show his face in front of Xu Youyou. He immediately said with gratitude: "Boss, I was in Hongcheng for the first half of the year. Thanks to your reminder. Otherwise, I'm afraid Teacher Song would have suffered a loss..."
Song Zhibai had received clear information about the award ceremony in Hong Kong City and knew that he had won the award. He also had to film a movie in Hong Kong City, so he went to attend the award ceremony. However, the organizer tricked them.
Song Zhibai's agent has always been upset that his artist didn't win many awards. He almost popped a champagne at halftime when he heard the news. If Xu Youyou hadn't stopped him, he would have made a fool of himself.
When Xu Youyou heard this, a hint of displeasure appeared on her face, and she said, "Xiao Song is a big star now, so don't let him go to these mediocre award ceremonies in the future."
The agent nodded and agreed quickly.
Xu Youyou reminded him again, "Xiao Song has worked hard on the set these days. I know Director Ouyang likes to polish the shots and shoot a scene over and over again until he is satisfied. Striving for perfection is a good thing. As an agent, you can't stop him, but you should also pay more attention to Xiao Song's physical and mental condition."
Agents and artists form a community of interests. They will both restrain and take care of each other. Song Zhibai's agent was originally immersed in the joy of his artist's amazing performance in the movie. After being reminded by Xu Youyou, he glanced at Song Zhibai with a gloomy face and felt that this man seemed more broken than when they first met.
It seemed as if the wind could blow him into pieces.
The agent was suddenly startled, and a chill ran down his spine: "Thank you for the reminder, boss. Don't worry, I will take good care of Teacher Xiao Song."
After Xu Youyou completed her KPI for visiting the set, she took her people away from the crew.
But she didn't walk too far, the golden pointer of the system pointed to a place nearby.
Xu Youyou's car drove around on the cement village road for half an hour and arrived at a village.
Nowadays, infrastructure construction projects in beautiful villages are in full swing. Even a small village deep in the mountains has a beautiful display board at the entrance.
"Baiyun Village." Xu Youyou whispered the name.
Liu Xiangyi's voice came from the side: "Baiyun Village! Boss, isn't the difficult old man that Director Ouyang mentioned living in Baiyun Village? Are they the same person?"
As the first assistant, Xu Fang was also very good at collecting information. She quickly said, "Boss, the old man Wu that Director Ouyang mentioned lives in Baiyun Village. He doesn't like the city. His children and grandchildren have come to pick him up many times, but he still doesn't want to leave the village."
Although several people were surprised that Xu Youyou actually knew the way to Baiyun Village, they did not think much about it. They just thought that Xu Youyou had turned on the navigation in advance and came here to help Ouyang Ouyang solve his problem.
Xu Youyou listened to their chattering and her heart skipped a beat. She had a vague premonition that her mission of picking up bargains this time might fall on this difficult old man.
Sure enough, the car drove through the clean and tidy village road and stopped in front of the beautiful two-story building at the end of the country road.
Looking in from outside the gate, there were many flowers and plants planted in the yard, and an old man in old navy blue clothes was watering the flowers.
Hearing the sound of the car engine, the old man turned around and said with a sullen face: "Go away! My cellar is not for rent!"
