On Saturday morning, Gu Tingchuan was changing clothes in the cloakroom. He was about to meet with the industry insiders he had made an appointment with before. Yiran helped him put away the dark low-neck sweater he had changed yesterday. When he looked back, he saw that the man in the mirror was full of elegance and demeanor. .
There are silver cufflinks on Director Gu's cuffs, which he bought for him last time. Since marrying him, she has reduced all expenses, and has been able to save some money, so she can also buy some gifts for her husband, even this humble pair of cufflinks cost tens of thousands.
She raised her head, her eyes fell on his deep and dark eyes, and her cheeks that had not been applied with makeup showed a layer of tenderness.
"Didn't you stay in bed on weekends?" He looked down at her, "Just sleep a little longer."
Yiran rubbed his eyes, put his clothes on his arm, and was about to take them to the laundry room, "It's okay, Rongrong asked me to go to her house early, and I will go after changing my clothes."
"Okay, I'll come to you when I'm done talking here."
After pinching her face and kissing her on the lips, Gu Tingchuan walked out of the dressing room.
The people who asked him to meet and discuss in detail were actually representatives of several producers and distributors, from China, the United States, and the United Kingdom. The purpose was to invite him to direct a nature film with the theme of shooting rare wild animals.
In the past, Gu Tingchuan has never made a similar film, but in his student days, he used wild animals as the main characters and made similar documentaries to complete the credits.
"A total of three countries are jointly filming. We plan to divide into three filming groups and collect materials across the country at the same time. The production team is all very good elites. You and your team are mainly responsible for editing, but we all know that you like Do it yourself."
After chatting for more than half an hour, Gu Tingchuan also had a preliminary understanding of their ideas. It is well known that he likes to do things that others think are "crazy".
If you can stop in your spare time, not only go deep into nature, but also work with those professional wildlife inspectors, and become an "explorer" beyond the identity of "director"—for Gu Tingchuan, there is probably nothing A film shot would have been more engaging.
However, he couldn't make a decision right away.
There is no problem with the budget, and the partner is already one of the best film companies in the world. These are no longer a problem for Director Gu...
but...
too long.
If you participate in the filming, you have to leave S City. The longest filming time may be as long as two years. What does this mean, no need to say more.
But if he does not participate in the filming, it is a boring cooperation for him.
He took a sip of the good freshly ground coffee and looked at Xiao Zhao calmly. After a while, all the partners around him gave him thoughtful looks, and he responded lightly: "I need some time." consider."
…
Yiran's friend's wedding was held on the top floor terrace of a super five-star hotel.
Zhang Rongrong herself can't make much money as a small doctor, but her family has a strong foundation, and it is more than enough to hold a luxurious wedding.
As soon as she arrived at the scene with the wedding car, she received a call from Gu Tingchuan, who had already finished work and was asking the driver to drive this way.
According to the itinerary of the wedding day, the ceremony will be held first in the afternoon, and the dinner will be held in the evening.
When Gu Tingchuan looked at the colorful balloons flying in the sky, and saw the happiness in Yiran's eyes beside him, he couldn't help asking, "How is it, do you want to get married?"
There was a touch of sweetness in Yiran's brows. At this moment, she looked at the man from the corner of her eye and said quietly, "Do you think I'm difficult? So far, I've thought of several plans, and the most romantic one is Kind of like finding an island like Bali and inviting our family and friends there. It seems to be popular with celebrities now? But I can’t think of anything more special.”
She looked at the white roses and cupcakes for decoration, but said to him softly: "Gu Tingchuan, I feel a strange feeling, not because I feel dissatisfied, but because they are too ordinary,' Not good enough for 'you."
He was moved by these words, and the feeling in his heart was the silence that he wanted to show off but tried his best to suppress, so he could only look down at her, with every word and every word: "It's because you think too much, fool."
The first time I heard him call myself a "fool", Yiran's ears were itchy, and I could hear the love in his heart.
However, she thought that to have a wedding that meant a lot to both of them, she probably had limited ability.
The bride Zhang Rongrong was already on the balcony where the ceremony was held, her nose was red from the cold, she rubbed her hands and asked her master of ceremonies: "Can I go back indoors? My old lady is about to freeze to death!"
The weather was too cold, and she wore a pink down jacket over her wedding dress. When she saw Director Gu suddenly appearing beside Yiran, her eyes were surprisingly bright.
The man was wearing not too elegant clothes, but the corners were scrupulously ironed. The black hair on his forehead hung down and was not combed back, so compared to the mature and reticent when he was talking with others, he was more chic and casual.
Gu Tingchuan nodded gracefully to her friend: "Congratulations."
Zhang Rongrong was stunned for a moment, then turned her head and shook Yiran's shoulder desperately: "You little goblin! Why are you so lucky! Tell me! Why did Director Gu marry you! Why! Why! Director Gu was educated by elites since childhood What a genius! The future is boundless, young and promising!"
Yiran immediately replied wittily, "Because I'm so pure and unpretentious, so different from those coquettish sluts out there?"
Zhang Rongrong: "..."
Gu Tingchuan: "?"
Facing such an embarrassing situation, Yiran laughed a few times.
Gu Tingchuan stole the limelight during the entire wedding dinner, even if the man just sat there silently, countless radar-like eyes swept over their table.
Fortunately, Zhang Rongrong arranged for them to be at the same table as men and women with more self-restraint, otherwise it would be more troublesome for Director Gu to deal with it. However, occasionally there are fans who come up to ask for photos or autographs. Gu Tingchuan silently refused: "Sorry ,not convenient today."
The two waited until all the programs at the wedding banquet were over and the groom and groom began to toast, and then they were ready to withdraw.
Yiran led Gu Tingchuan to Zhang Rongrong. She looked at the groom officer who was quietly discussing the details of the toast with her best man a few steps away, and said, "Your husband is also handsome and considerate. What's wrong? He's a good boy when he gets a bargain."
Zhang Rongrong hugged her friend with a smile, Yiran took advantage of this and said, "Rongrong, Director Gu and I have something to do at night, so let's go first, you know he is not used to this kind of occasion..."
"It's okay, it's okay, you guys are here enough to give me face, but you don't know, even my mother-in-law came to inquire about Director Gu just now."
Yiran leaned over and hugged her friend, "Then let's meet again another day. I wish you a happy wedding and an early baby."
Zhang Rongrong glanced at them ambiguously, "You are still talking about me! When are you going to have a child?"
Yiran was choked up by the question, how would she answer this kind of question, so she could only silently hope that Gu Tingchuan could help her out.
The result was—As expected of Director Gu, he spoke in a calm tone, and only said two words: "Tonight."
After finishing speaking, he took Mrs. Gu's hand, turned around and left.
…
Gu Tingchuan asked the driver to go back early, and drove Yiran to a date in person. She originally wanted her assistant to book movie tickets, but she took out her mobile phone, saying that it was convenient for her to book tickets, and showed him the interface of the app, expressing that she wanted to buy it. Where to buy where.
Director Gu knew that she wanted him to experience this "process", so he agreed with a faint smile.
There are many couples in the night show, and they plan to wait until the movie starts to get in in the dark. Anyway, they still bought tickets in the back row, so this will not attract the attention of others.
While waiting in the car, Yiran listened to the jazz music playing on the stereo, looked at Gu Tingchuan next to him, and said, "Is it my illusion? I always feel...you are less talkative than usual tonight." , is there something on your mind?"
At first, she thought it was because the wedding was too lively, which made him feel uncomfortable, but after careful observation, she found that it was not the case.
Gu Tingchuan turned his head and glanced at her. There was an unspoken acquiescence in his eyes. He was silent for a moment. He knew that if he didn't say anything now, she would always think about it, so he simply talked about the movie that he talked about today in detail. He said it carefully, trying to make her understand his thoughts and position.
After listening to it, Yiran's mood was really tangled. She knew what this man was worrying about, and also knew that there were too many things that made him contradictory.
After all, this nature movie is not just about making a movie, but about presenting a natural world to the world through the photographer's lens and his mind.
The reason why Gu Tingchuan can continue to break through surprises people is because he not only wants to make a movie that belongs to "Gu Tingchuan", but also wants the audience to see the broader scenery behind these three words.
"When talking about ideas, an American said that if people don't pay attention to ecological protection, we as a species will have no future. I think it makes sense."
Yiran looked at a ray of light coming in from the window, which was lowered down, just shining on the fingertips on her knees, and she lowered her head and said, "It's also for you that they can entrust such an important opportunity to you. Fully affirmed in all aspects of ability.”
He smiled, and after hesitating for so long, he still made up his mind: "Well, but I don't want to go."
Yiran looked at the smile in the man's eyes, and felt unspeakable for a moment: "Why?"
"If you shoot with the group, you will have to leave for more than a year. Even if you have the chance to come back in the middle, it is very rare. However, we have just got married, and there are still many things I want to do with you."
What Gu Tingchuan said was not to reassure her, nor was it to test her, but his true thoughts, but because of this, she couldn't accept it even more.
This incident made her feel a heavy burden on her heart, as if whether to agree or not...is a dilemma.
She can see Mr. Gu's lofty ambitions and feel his deep love. These are his strengths, and it is also his "appearance" that she loves only.
