Chapter 76: Section 76

His attention at this moment was all on Tang Weiwei in front of him.

Tang Weiwei looked so beautiful with her whole face exposed that he couldn't help but want to keep looking at her.

Tang Weiwei was not used to so many people staring at her, and her fingers were nervously hooked together.

Seeing the girl's nervous and awkward look, Xu Xiuwen's heart softened. He reached out and held the girl's hand, and asked gently, "Where did you go this morning?"

Tang Weiwei was startled by his actions. After all, this was the entrance to the dormitory building and there were so many people here.

She tried to pull her hand back, but she couldn't.

When he heard Xu Xiuwen's question, he replied quietly, "I went to the library this morning."

"What time did you go?"

"Just open the door and go."

"Aren't you sleepy getting up so early? You came home so late last night."

Tang Weiwei thought about last night and wished she could turn into a hamster and curl up into a ball so that no one could see her.

Xu Xiuwen really liked seeing Tang Weiwei's shy look, but he couldn't bear it, so he changed the subject, "Have you had lunch?"

"Eat... No." Seeing Xu Xiuwen change the subject, Tang Weiwei's mood did improve a little.

She wanted to say that she had eaten, but she was worried that Xu Xiuwen would see it and get angry, so she had to tell the truth.

"Let's go. I haven't eaten yet. Come with me to eat."

Xu Xiuwen knew that when facing Tang Weiwei, sometimes he couldn't be too nice to her and his attitude had to be tougher, so he took the girl's hand in a domineering manner and walked towards the cafeteria.

Eating is not important, but what you do after eating is important.

After lunch, Xu Xiuwen took Tang Weiwei to a sparsely populated path in the school, then found a bench. He sat down first and then forced the girl to sit on his lap.

Xu Xiuwen continued in the name of "good friend" and kissed her again.

This is the second time I've smoked.

Tang Weiwei's lips are sweeter than candy, and softer and more elastic than Wangzai QQ candy. And after taking a bite, I want to take a second bite, and I can't control myself at all.

It was almost one o'clock when Xu Xiuwen let go of Tang Weiwei.

The girl was almost out of breath due to being sucked so hard.

Xu Xiuwen found it funny.

He thought to himself, it seems I need to practice more. This time I only kissed for less than half an hour, I will try to last for an hour next time.

Xu Xiuwen wanted to slow down and continue practicing, but his cell phone suddenly rang, and Tang Weiwei looked at him pitifully, begging in a low voice, "Please let me go back."

The call was from Huang Shi. Xu Xiuwen knew something was wrong and agreed to Tang Weiwei's request.

Seeing Xu Xiuwen agreed, Tang Weiwei immediately stood up from his lap, lowered her head and said habitually, "I... I'll go first."

Xu Xiuwen smiled and nodded, then watched the girl leave.

After the girl left, he picked up the phone again and called Huangshi.

"Hey, Brother Huang, something happened just now... Is it what we talked about last night? Okay, I got it, I'll be there soon."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Xiuwen was quite excited.

The purpose of Huang Shi's call was to inform Xu Xiuwen that his roommate, the student in the directing department, was willing to meet with him.

Although they hadn't met yet, he was a graduate of the Directing Department of Jinling Academy of Arts, a serious professional. And Huang Shi had assured him last night that his roommate was a very good director.

So Xu Xiuwen is looking forward to meeting his roommates in Huangshi.

The two parties agreed to meet at a cafe outside Jinling Academy of Arts at three o'clock this afternoon.

When Xu Xiuwen arrived at the coffee shop, Huang Shi and his roommate from the directing department had already been there for a while.

When Huang Shi saw Xu Xiuwen coming, he stood up immediately, and his roommate beside him also stood up, but when they looked at Xu Xiuwen, their eyes were full of suspicion.

Huang Shi pointed at Xu Xiuwen and said to his roommate, "Hang Fei, this is the Jiaotong University classmate I was talking about."

Then he pointed at Hang Fei and said to Xu Xiuwen, "Brother Xiuwen, this is Hang Fei, a talented person from their directing department."

Xu Xiuwen took the initiative to ask for a handshake and said, "Hello, I'm Xu Xiuwen."

Hang Fei did not lose his manners, stretched out his hand and shook his, saying, "I am Hang Fei."

Huang Shi probably saw that Hang Fei didn't trust Xu Xiuwen very much, so he quickly interrupted and said, "Sit down, let's sit down and talk."

After the three of them sat down, Xu Xiuwen ordered a cup of coffee.

While waiting for coffee, Hang Fei lowered his head and said nothing.

He held the iron spoon and kept stirring the coffee in front of him, and it seemed that he was more interested in the coffee than in Xu Xiuwen.

Xu Xiuwen didn't care.

As a director, if he doesn't have a temper, what's the point of being a director

Huang Shi couldn't stand it, but he couldn't blame Hang Fei in person, so he asked Xu Xiuwen, "Hey, brother Xiuwen, what's the name of the TV series you said you were going to shoot last night?"

"Boys Over Flowers"

"Yes, yes, that's the name. I remember you said it was a novel, right?"

"Yes, I wrote the novel, so I want to film it." Xu Xiuwen found that Hang Fei was actually very interested, because he even stopped stirring, probably listening to his conversation with Huang Shi.

He chuckled secretly and continued, "I won't hide it from you. A few days ago, someone from a film and television company contacted me and wanted to buy the film and television rights of my novel. The price was 1 million, but I didn't sell it."

When Hang Fei heard the number of 1 million, he obviously couldn't sit still. He didn't care about the "arrogance" of the big director and asked loudly, "You didn't sell it for 1 million?"

The coffee was just ready and delivered.

Xu Xiuwen deliberately stopped talking and drank his coffee instead, pretending to praise it, "This coffee is good."

Huang Shi stared at Hang Fei next to him calmly and said, "Yes, the coffee here is good. Hey, brother Xiu Wen, go on, you didn't even sell it for 1 million?"

Xu Xiuwen stopped putting on airs. He was just imitating Hang Fei on purpose to tease him.

His eyes were calm, but he said in a serious tone, "I think my novels and movies are worth at least 10 million, so I won't sell them for less than that."

“Fuck!”

Huang Shi thought, how crazy! Is this what youthful vigor means

Compared with him, I am still hesitating whether to go to Beijing to venture out. The gap is too big.

Hang Fei couldn't help but ask, "Do you know what 10 million means?"

Xu Xiuwen understood Hang Fei's doubts.

Most people probably wouldn't believe that this novel is worth $10 million as a film or TV adaptation.

Only Xu Xiuwen knew that 10 million was too little. The value of this comic in the previous life was far more than this number. The value created by the Taiwanese version of Meteor Garden alone was much more than this.

There was no need to say these words to the two of them, and it was impossible for Xu Xiuwen to say them. He took a sip of coffee and said, "I made more than 1 million yuan from this novel, so I don't need it. I don't want others to ruin my novel, so I want to film it."

Huang Shi and Hang Fei felt both envious and embarrassed when they heard Xu Xiuwen say that he had earned more than 1 million yuan from his novels.

They are obviously several years older than him, yet now they can't even earn 100,000, let alone 1 million.

Thanks to "林Y" for the 1500 Qidian coins! Thanks to "林Y" and "时光从书页里流过" for their monthly tickets!

Chapter 84 Xu Xiuwen: Your kidneys are not in good condition too

Xu Xiuwen continued, "You probably haven't read my book yet. When you have, we can talk again. Let me first tell you about my current situation. Apart from this novel and more than one million, I have nothing else. I have to start from scratch."

Hang Fei said, "It doesn't matter. If we are ready to shoot, I can ask my friends for camera, art, costumes, makeup, props, etc. They are also from our school, and we can form a team at any time. Actors and venues are a problem."

Xu Xiuwen said, "As for the location, since the novel is a campus story, I personally hope to place it at Jiaotong University."

"The scenery at Jiaotong University is nice. It would be nice to take photos there, but you have to apply for various formalities from the school. This is something you have to do."

"As for the actors..." Hang Fei hesitated.

Because Xu Xiuwen said that he only had more than 1 million yuan in total, and it was hard to say whether the filming funds were sufficient.

Huang Shi interrupted, "It's easy to find actors. We have so many students in our school, we can just recruit a bunch of people. As for important roles like male and female lead, don't you plan to invite famous people to play them, Xiu Wen?"

Xu Xiuwen shook his head. "It's not that I don't want to hire someone, it's that I can't afford it. And even those with a little fame probably wouldn't look down on our small team."

At this time, Hang Fei had not actually agreed to take on this drama. Xu Xiuwen had not yet seen Hang Fei's level and had not yet decided to let him be the director.

But when Xu Xiuwen said "our small team", Huang Shi and Hang Fei instantly felt like they were one of their own and the core of the crew had been established.

Hang Fei thought for a moment and said, "Then we should hire all newcomers. Our school doesn't have much else but a lot of people who want to act. There are also many people who are willing to film even if they don't have money. If we hire a few more of them, we can save a lot of money. By the way, even if there is no pay, we have to provide lunch boxes, otherwise it will be hard to recruit people."

Xu Xiuwen smiled, "There will definitely be enough boxed lunches. I'm not a cold-blooded capitalist."

Huang Shi and Hang Fei also laughed when they heard this.

Three older boys were looking at each other and laughing in the cafe outside the art college.

The atmosphere became relaxed and cheerful.

After that, the three of them discussed some issues and reached a preliminary consensus.

Before they parted, Hang Fei handed Xu Xiuwen a CD, saying it was an artistic short film he had shot in his junior year.

Xu Xiuwen also urged him to go to Jinjiang to read his novel.
