The night is already deep.
The window of 302 was open, and there was the sound of employees taking a walk at night. A mosquito coil was placed on the table, and wisps of green smoke were floating away.
Chen Qi felt a little stuffy while writing, so he went to the water room to wash his face and wipe his body, then came back and lay down on the bed to rest for a while. This year he finished "Tai Chi 2" and "Scaring People", and there are at least some left.
Two scripts.
Writing four movie scripts in one year is crazy!
What? I copied it, so it’s okay...
"This is how it is in the entrepreneurial period. All you have to do is queue up and copy the script. My tenosynovitis has many things to consider."
Chen Qi closed his eyes and muttered, full of resentment. He touched the bed and found nothing.
These days, staying is just waiting. It will be different in the future. In the future, it will be like checking Douyin, playing games, reading novels, hooking up, eating snacks, having sex, doing manicures, foot massages... If in the future,
If you just wait and do nothing, it will basically be useless.
"In the days before mobile phones, I don't know how to describe the way oil tankers transport soybean oil?"
Chen Qi rested for a while, got up and moved around, and continued to immerse himself in the case.
In 1988, a movie "Mom Hit Me Again" was released in Taiwan, ah! "Mom Love Me Again".
It is adapted from a true story "Eighteen Years of a Mad Girl". It is said to be an adaptation, but the content is very different and completely unrelated, so he is not afraid of any doubts.
At that time, this kind of sad drama was no longer popular, and it was canceled after only three days of release, with a box office of less than NT$10,000. Later, the mainland introduced it, and it became unimaginably popular.
The theme song "Only Mom is Good in the World" is sung all over the country...
Of course, all aesthetics are contemporary.
This song has been criticized as worthless in later generations. Have you considered the feelings of children in single-parent families? Why ignore father's love? Mothers are not all good... This is a matter of opinion, so I won't comment.
The story is very simple: the heroine was abandoned by a scumbag and gave birth to a child. The scumbag turned around and married a rich girl. As a result, the rich girl was unable to have children, so the man came to snatch the child. After all kinds of pulling and pulling, the heroine went crazy...
Looking at it from today's perspective, it is completely useless and full of the legacy of feudal society. There is also a plot where the child is sick and the heroine goes to kowtow to worship Buddha, which is even banned in mainland China.
So with a stroke of his pen, Chen Qi directly placed the background before the founding of the People's Republic of China, and deleted all the passionate scenes in it.
The plot is the same, but the nature of the heroine has changed. She is a poor woman who was oppressed and poisoned by the old society!
The man is a businessman and went to Hong Kong after the founding of the People's Republic of China. More than 20 years later, the child grew up and went to study in the United States. This coincided with the reform and opening up of the mainland and the return of overseas Chinese.
He wanted to make a contribution to his hometown, but ended up finding his biological mother.
The mother was also mentally ill, with good and bad spells. As she got older, the bad spells lasted longer and longer. In the hospital, the child sang that song again, awakening the mother's love... In the end, the mother and son were reunited, and they lived gloriously in the new era.
Under the light, let’s run towards a better future together.
There are criticisms of the old society, deep sentimentality, G-points praising reform and opening up, and the characteristics of the times of Sino-US friendship. The elements are all alive.
Chen Qi adding so many buffs is nothing more than hiding his true intention: to make the audience cry!
If it is straightforward and sensational at first, it will be criticized as uneducated, but adding various factors makes it different.
Back then, when I watched this movie, schools and work places were reserved, and I basically brought my own handkerchiefs, and cried a lot, as if anyone who didn't cry had no conscience. And the children went back to be filial to their parents after watching it, and continued to go to the room to expose it for at most two days.
watt.
…………
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."
"Stop crying!"
"Woooooooo..."
"You've been crying for an hour!"
"I can't stop!"
In the Tongzi Tower, Chen Qi looked helplessly at Gong Xue, whose eyes were swollen like peaches, and three wet handkerchiefs.
From the moment she read the script, about a quarter of the way through the plot, she started crying. From sobbing, to wailing regardless of the image, to panting from crying, it fully demonstrated that women are
Made of water.
"Why did you write such a sad story? I feel so uncomfortable now."
"Isn't the ending bright?"
"But the process is so painful! When I think about it, woo woo hoo... it feels like I have become a mother myself..."
Gong Xue finally stopped, holding his hand and firmly affirming: "I want to act in this, I want to act in it!"
"It was originally given to you. Do you remember that I said that I wanted you to be a female star with the best crying scenes in China?"
"Um!"
"The opportunity has come. You can cry in various ways in this film, and you can also let the audience cry in various ways. Once you master it, your body will be forever cast, and your place in the hearts of the audience will never be erased."
Gong Xue could also understand his strange words, which probably meant establishing her own status, and asked: "Who do you want to direct?"
"Director Wang, he knows the basics."
"That's what I mean too. Should we go find her now?"
"ah?"
"Oh, let's go!"
Gong Xue seemed to be activated by this script and was very motivated. She dragged him and ran to Wang Haowei's house.
Wang Haowei was eating, so he put down his chopsticks and read the script, and then he also started crying:
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
"Well……"
Chen Qi scratched her head and looked at her lover, both embarrassed.
This kind of film could not generate foreign exchange, and since it was for the Hundred Flowers Award, he simply left it to Beijing Film Studio. Wang Haowei was even more willing to kill anyone who tried to steal it from her.
"Don't worry, you can trust me, I will definitely make this movie a success!"
“Xiao Gong, we have experience in cooperation, there’s nothing to say!”
"By the way, do you have any ideas for the male protagonist?"
"No, I leave it all to you, you choose..."
Chen Qi paused and added: "Just don't look for that Jade-faced Erlang and Pink Butterfly."
…………
After chatting with Wang Haowei, he returned to Gong Xue's dormitory.
Chen Qi was lying on the bed, and she was nestling in his arms. They were both wearing clothes. Well, I have to mention that.
"Are you leaving?"
Gong Xue suddenly asked, and before he could answer, he added: "I can feel that you didn't pay attention to the first part of "Tai Chi 2". It seems that you have familiarized us all, and you can finally be liberated."
"You're a little kid, your intuition is very accurate!"
Chen Qi was very surprised and said, "I thought I'd tell you later. I should be going to Hong Kong in the second half of the year, but it won't be long."
"How long will that take?"
"Well, half a year? Or four or five months, not necessarily..."
"Isn't that long?"
Gong Xue raised her body, looked at him, and said quietly: "You know that I don't want to be separated from you. You don't want to take me with you, so you found a job for me so that I don't have time to look for you."
Chen Qi was very happy, seeing her "unreasonable" for the first time.
"I'm going to do something serious!"
"I know, so I endure it."
She was silent for a while and then suddenly said: "When will your house be built?"
"It's autumn, but the backyard is finished. Paint the walls and add some smells. Once the furniture is placed, it will be ready for living."
"oh……"
Gong Xue got into his arms again, not knowing what to think, and sighed softly.
(Finish and call it a day!
Thanks to the cute owner of Qingdeng Ancient Buddha, no more...)
Chapter completed!
