    When you want to concentrate on doing something, there will always be trivial matters of one kind or another.  Wan Xiaohu feels this way. He really wants to be able to concentrate on filming "The Butterfly Effect" and stay behind closed doors on the set. Unfortunately, this is just an idea.  The weather in July is so hot that it is basically impossible to shoot outdoor scenes at noon. We can only take time to shoot in the afternoon and evening.  Then Wan Xiaohu sadly discovered that there was a conflict between filming and socializing.  "Today, the leaders of the film bureau are here for inspection. In the evening, you invite Zhou Xun and Guan Zhilin to have a meal with the leaders." While filming, the cell phone rang with a call from Wang Zhonglei.  Wan Xiaohu frowned: "Yesterday, the leaders of the city bureau came over for dinner, and today the leaders of the film bureau came over again. How can I have so much time to eat and drink with you? "The Butterfly Effect" is a convenient time for filming, and I don't want to waste it.  "Brother Lei, why don't you just have dinner with the boss?" Wang Zhonglei said on the other end of the phone: "Xiaohu, please let us know beforehand when filming. We can't afford to offend the leaders of the film bureau. And as a director, you will inevitably have to deal with these things in the future."  When dealing with leaders, if you don't do what you have to do, they will find ways to put your feet on the line. " "Okay, I get it. I'll be here on time tonight." Wan Xiaohu hung up the phone, feeling unhappy.  "Well, at six o'clock, I will send a car to pick you up on time." The little famous director is so aggrieved. When the leader comes, he has to rush over to show his smile.  If you are an ordinary young director, you will naturally not feel aggrieved. Instead, you will move forward without hesitation.  But Wan Xiaohu is not an ordinary director. He has many good movies in his head. He is destined to be a great director in the future, but he doesn't want to live a useless life.  "Just wait, uncle, when the movie I made becomes a global sensation, you will be the one to make me smile!" After comforting himself, Wan Xiaohu quickly put all this behind him.  He has passed the age of an angry young man, and he still has to do what he should do when socializing on the scene. This is not only the rule of the entertainment industry, but also the rule of the entire society.  "Everyone is up, get some rest and start the next one! Try to complete today's task before six o'clock!" Contrary to expectations, Wan Xiaohu's urging failed to complete the shots that should be taken before six o'clock, and  Half of the shots were unfinished.  ¡°Director, do you want to work overtime?¡± Ning Hao came over and asked.  Wan Xiaohu suppressed his boredom and shook his head: "Forget it, that's it for today. You and Lao Wu arrange the scenes that the crew will shoot tomorrow. I have something else to do, so I'll take the first step." "Okay.  "Wan Xiaohu stood up and waved to Cheng Er: "Call Guan Zhilin and Zhou Xun over." After Zhou Xun and Guan Zhilin arrived, the car sent by Wang Zhonglei also arrived. Wan Xiaohu spread his hands helplessly: "  There's a dinner party up there. Let's go change clothes and put on makeup. "Zhou Xun and Guan Zhilin didn't say anything. They turned around and went to the dressing room of the crew. They didn't come out until twenty minutes later. They were all dressed up.  Shiny.  She got into the car sent by Wang Zhonglei, and her two assistants drove behind.  Anyone who is an actor knows that once you become famous, you can¡¯t miss out on dinner parties.  Especially for female celebrities, aside from acting time, most of the time they have left is rushing to dinner parties.  When businessmen have gatherings or when leaders entertain guests, they all like to have celebrities by their side to give them extra face.  "Which leader is treating you today?" After Guan Zhilin got in the car, he took out his lipstick and touched up his makeup. It seemed that he didn't have time to describe it in detail in the dressing room.  "They are all leaders of the film bureau, who knows which one it is." Wan Xiaohu sat in the passenger seat, closing his eyes and concentrating. There was another difficult drinking battle to be fought in the evening, and he had to be mentally prepared to cope with it.  Zhou Xun rolled down the window a little and said, "The director doesn't like socializing?" "You do?" "I don't like it either, but I think you men should like it." Wan Xiaohu twisted his body and changed into a comfortable position.  : "People who can drink will like to socialize, and people who have free time also like to socialize. But I am neither of them. I just want to make a good movie. "The Butterfly Effect" has put a lot of effort into me, and I don't want to miss the mark."  ." Guan Zhilin put away the lipstick and said, "Xiaohu, you are a relatively pure director, and you are very serious about making movies." "I just want to be famous as soon as possible, and socializing is not just for it.  Are you famous? Why don't you like it?" Wan Xiaohu smiled: "Because I am not the protagonist of this kind of entertainment." "That's right." After a while, the car arrived.  It's not a big hotel, but a very low-key club that doesn't even have a name.  After hanging up the phone with Wang Zhonglei, within a few minutes, Wang ZhongleiLei Lei came out of the club and led Wan Xiaohu and three others in.  This kind of club is a membership system. Without members to guide the way, ordinary people cannot enter.  "Brother Lei, which leaders are here today?" "The two deputy directors of the Film Bureau, Director Zhang and Director Liu, Secretary Zhao of the TV Drama Department, and several commissioners." After Wang Zhonglei finished speaking, he said to Zhou Xunhe  Guan Zhilin said with a smile, "I made an agreement with the leaders to sing a song after dinner in the evening and leave no later than 12 o'clock so as not to delay your beauties' sleep time." "That's good, I'm older.  , but I can¡¯t bear to stay up late,¡± Guan Zhilin said with a smile.  "Miss Guan is joking. You look like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl now." Guan Zhilin laughed so hard that he reached out and patted Wang Zhonglei: "Mr. Wang really knows how to make girls happy." He didn't say a word.  Yes, the box is here.  Opening the door, eight or nine people were already sitting there. As soon as they saw Guan Zhilin and Zhou Xun, their eyes immediately lit up.  "Oh, Miss Guan, Miss Zhou, take a seat quickly." Someone came over and pulled out the chair.  Wang Zhonglei said: "Let me introduce to you Guan Zhilin and Zhou Xun. All leaders know it. This is the youngest director Wan Xiaohu, who is directing "The Butterfly Effect"." After an introduction, the guests and hosts took their seats.  The next step is to change cups and cups, eat and drink.  Although Wan Xiaohu came to the dinner, he didn't plan to drink much. After toasting, he ate quietly.  Listen to other people's dirty jokes and talk about some insider stories in the film industry.  "Come on, Zhilin, let me toast you. Are you getting used to filming in the mainland?" Director Liu of the Film Bureau was holding a glass of wine.  Guan Zhilin also held a cup and clinked a cup with Director Liu: "It's all very good. The script is good, the director is good, and life here is also very good." "That's good." Director Liu turned his head again and said to Wan  Xiaohu said, "Director Xiaohu, Zhilin is a guest from Hong Kong. As a landlord, you have to take good care of him. And Zhonglei, you can't treat Zhilin badly." Wan Xiaohu nodded: "Don't worry, Director Liu, Sister Lin is in our crew  , I can¡¯t bear any loss.¡± Wang Zhonglei also said: ¡°The leader¡¯s instructions will be fulfilled and Miss Guan will feel at home.¡± Director Liu sat down next to Guan Zhilin, took a sip of wine, and then patted Guan.  Zhilin put his hand on the table and narrowed his eyes: "Zhilin, Zhonglei and Xiaohu have all given me a guarantee. If you have suffered any grievance, feel free to come to me. I only ask them." "  Then thank you, Director Liu, and I'll give you a toast." Guan Zhilin took his hand back with a toast.  "Okay, I want to drink the wine offered by Zhilin." After a brief interlude, the dinner was still lively.  Wan Xiaohu had a hypocritical smile. When the leader said he wanted to drink, he would hold a cup and drink with him. If the leader had a happy chat, he would just eat the food with his head down.  It¡¯s already hard for him to come to a dinner party, and it¡¯s not his style to go back and forth with a shy face.
