Chapter 447: Test the waters first(2/2)

"It still needs polishing." Yu Dong looked at Liu Ye again, "What do you want from me?"

Liu Ye blinked his eyes and said: "This assignment is very difficult for the students, so let me ask if the time for handing in the assignment can be postponed a little bit."

"How long will it be postponed?"

"Push it back..." Liu Ye stretched out a finger and said weakly: "One week, okay?"

"Okay, is there anything else?"

Liu Ye was stunned again. He didn't expect Yu Dong to agree so quickly.

"No, there's nothing else to do."

"Nothing else, you can go out first. Director Zhang and I have something to talk about."

"Okay, okay, I'm leaving first."

With that said, Liu Ye hurriedly started to walk out of the office, but Yu Dong called out to him again: "Don't you know how to say hello to someone before you leave?"

Liu Ye said to Zhang Yimou again with a red face: "Director Zhang, I'm leaving first."

Zhang Yimou smiled and nodded, "Well, goodbye."

When Liu Ye fled out of the office, Zhang Yimou looked at Yu Dong: "I didn't expect you to be so strict in front of the students. It kind of subverted my understanding of you. I thought you would be like this when you are with the students.

Like friends."

Yu Dong smiled and stood up to add some hot water to Zhang Yimou's cup, "I can make friends with them, but first we are teachers and students, and I have to be responsible for their studies. In fact, you should be happy if I am stricter with them.

Because I am trying my best to produce excellent actors for directors like you."

Zhang Yimou laughed: "So, I still have to thank you?"

"That's exactly what it should be."

Zhang Yimou smiled and shook his head. Yu Dong was able to explain this gangster logic so confidently.

"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense and get back to business. You told me on the phone last time that you wanted me to go directly to Hollywood to make a movie. Is it really more than just talk?"

When it came to business, Yu Dong also became serious, "Of course it's not just talk. If you are willing, I will help you arrange it. But this matter is not urgent. After all, the Chinese version of the novel has just come out and has not been published abroad. This time you come

, I want to talk to you about another thing."

Zhang Yimou nodded. Regarding another matter, Yu Dong had already mentioned it before, but Yu Dong did not say it in detail on the phone.

"What do you think."

"I want to make a movie about rural education." Yu Dong said directly.

Zhang Yimou was not surprised at all. As far as he knew, Yu Dong had always paid more attention to basic education in China. It had been in the news before when several of them donated royalties from "Essays on the Cucumber Garden" to support rural education.

"Do you have any specific ideas?" Zhang Yimou spit out tea leaves, "I mean, has the script been written?"

"Not yet, just a rough idea. If the script has been written, I don't have to go to such trouble. I can just give you the script and ask you if you want to shoot it."

"That's true, but you don't have anything. What are we talking about? Could it be that you want me to find the script by myself?"

"No, if you find a suitable script yourself, there is no need to talk to me, you can just go and shoot it yourself."

"That's right, if I have a script, I will shoot it directly. I told you before that I want to help Guangzhou Film and Television make a few movies, but now I am worried that I don't have a good plan on hand."

"I know that." Yu Dong nodded.

In fact, if Zhang Yimou comes later, maybe Yu Dong can give him a specific answer, because Yu Dong has already sent someone to ask Shi Qiangsheng, but he has not received a reply from Shi Qiangsheng yet.

If Shi Qiangsheng replies that there is already a plan, then buy the copyright of Shi Qiangsheng. If Shi Qiangsheng has no plan, then Yu Dong will do it himself.

Zhang Yimou came suddenly and didn't even say hello to Yu Dong in advance.

"You came in too hasty this time, otherwise I would have been prepared."

Zhang Yimou said with a smile: "I happened to have something to do when I went to Shanghai. It's not far away, so I came over. But having said that, I thought you were going to attend Magnolia, and I thought I could meet you in Shanghai. Who knew?
