Behind the main building of Beijing Film Studio is Studio No. 1, which covers an area of ​​5,000 square meters and is known as the largest in Asia.
There is a large open space behind the studio, with residential buildings in the living area on the left and right. The open space has been separated by barriers and surrounded by a construction site. The workers are busy and the prototype of an old street has already been formed.
This is the Xisi Pailou Street to be built in "Luotuo Xiangzi". It has been a prosperous place since the Ming Dynasty, with many shops and cars and horses passing by.
Chen Qi and Li Wenhua stood aside and watched the workers constructing. After watching for a while, he said: "Director Li, do you want to have another meeting to discuss the choice of the heroine?"
"What to discuss?"
"Let's see who is suitable!"
"..."
Li Wenhua suddenly rolled his eyes and said: "Look at your description yourself. The heroine has congenital deficiencies, is frail and sick, and is a medicine pot. In order to avoid dragging others down, she is quite old and has never married.
She has curvy eyebrows and beautiful eyes, is gentle and intelligent, and although she is not proficient in martial arts, she has great theoretical knowledge. After being rescued by the male protagonist, she fell in love with him and taught him the essence of Tai Chi. The two of them are regarded as siblings... Is this even necessary to discuss?
One stroke after another is the word Gong Xue!
Xiao Chen, I'm really surprised.
When others write scripts, the crew has to go to great lengths to select actors. Why do you write scripts, and those people all look like they look like you describe them?"
"Hey, maybe it's a coincidence!"
"One person is a coincidence, two, three, or four are also coincidences?"
"Then can you explain?"
"Forget it, after all, I have been in the industry for decades and this is the first time I believe there is something evil in this world."
"Then do you agree with Gong Xue being the heroine?"
"If you change the script, I will agree." Li Wenhua hummed.
At this time, the status of the screenwriter is revealed. As long as the script is finalized, unless the screenwriter changes it himself, the director cannot touch it. Chen Qi was very pleased that it was good to be a cultural person in the 1980s, without having to crawl on the ground...
"Director Li!"
"Xiao Chen!"
At this time, a person came to report: "Several actors have arrived and are at the guest house."
"Well, let's go there right away!"
With that said, the two hurried back and went to the fourth floor of the guest house. They saw that several doors were open. They went into a room first, where Yu Hai and Sun Jiankui were packing their things.
"Coach Yu! Jiankui!"
"You guys can come, it's our first time entering a film studio. We're not familiar with the place, so we're very nervous," Yu Haida said.
"What's new once is familiar again, don't deal with it now, I'll introduce you to your colleagues!"
The two men led them into the second room, where Ge Chunyan and Huang Qiuyan sat chatting.
Chen Qi called the people together and said with a smile: "Come on, come on, the head coach of the Shandong team, Comrade Yu Hai! Comrade Sun Jiankui... these two are from the Beijing team, one uses Baguazhang and the other uses double swords."
"Hello, hello, I met you during the National Games."
"He is Chen Zhengying, and this is Xiaotao, your daughter's personal maid. As for the two of you, let's act as the prince's employees. One will guard the third floor, and the other will guard the fifth floor, so you can get closer and closer."
Sun Jiankui and Ge Chunyan looked at each other without causing any trouble. Martial arts is also considered a sport. Men and women are different in competitive sports, and each has its own merit. If men and women fight, it is called [モザイイイ壊版] Fallen Female Investigator...
In the third room, Li Lianjie was wearing a blue sportswear and was beeping with Wang Qun: "Hong Kong people are not trustworthy. They asked me to film "Shaolin Temple", but the monk didn't take it seriously and started doing Tai Chi first. Then
What kind of thing is that?"
"We're all here, let's just shoot. It's all a movie anyway."
"no the same!"
Li Lianjie rushed to bed, his body as nimble as a monkey, and whispered: "The subsidy for "Shaolin Temple" is one yuan a day, and the amount for "Tai Chi" has not been decided yet. If you give 50 cents, and you shoot for a few months, you will earn dozens of yuan less.
Woolen cloth."
"So much difference?"
Wang Qun also paid attention. Even though he was a senior brother, when it came to making money and his concept of wealth, Li Lianlian was the most knowledgeable in the entire martial arts team.
Because his father passed away very early, he had two brothers and two sisters, all of whom were supported by his mother's meager salary. Fortunately, he joined the martial arts team and started counting his working years at the age of 11. He had to earn money to support the family since he was a child, so he paid special attention to this aspect.
.
By the way, there are always rumors about his grandfather's identity, but there is no evidence...
"We were chatting, is this room okay?"
Just as he was talking, Chen Qi, Yu Hai and others came in, and Li Lianlian jumped out of bed again, very enthusiastic: "It's very good, very good. It's my first time to stay in the guest house of a film studio, and it feels very good."
He followed Yu Hai and started talking.
The martial arts circle is small, and fewer people can participate in competitions. Everyone knows each other, but they are not familiar with each other.
When Li Lianjie heard Yu Hai play Chen Zhengying, he smiled and said: "That's my master and father-in-law. Please take good care of me!"
He showed that he was far smarter than his peers, but he was also very straightforward in some aspects. After chatting for a few words, he called Li Wenhua outside and asked secretly: "Director, how much subsidy will you give?"
"Well……"
Li Wenhua was stunned by such a straightforward question and said: "If you give me a piece of "Shaolin Temple", of course we will also give you a piece."
"Should we play the leading role together, or should everyone play the same role?"
"The crew treats everyone equally and we are all one piece!"
"oh oh!"
Li Lianjie nodded and went in.
Chen Qi watched from the side and didn't communicate much with him. There would be many opportunities in the future, but he had already judged the other person's character from these few words, and secretly sighed that no wonder he would become that virtuous in the end.
Character really determines destiny.
He made "Shaolin Temple" for one dollar a day, and later "Shaolin Boys" and "Shaolin North and South", which made it two dollars a day, but the extras in Hong Kong paid 50 dollars for lying on the ground and pretending to be a corpse.
In order to earn the 50 yuan, he put on makeup and pretended to be a dead body.
At that time, someone in Hong Kong offered him 3 million for a movie, but the martial arts team wouldn't let him go. Comparing the two sides, it was inevitable that he would have some ideas.
It’s okay to call him selfish, snobbish, and a sophisticated egotist. Human nature is what it is. His real black material is a series of operations later, One Fund, and those who believe in Buddhism. I won’t go into details here because of my sensitivity.
The two met the actor. As soon as they left the guest house, Li Wenhua sighed: "The subsidy is one yuan a day, the highest in the country. Our tree is so big that it attracts the wind. I don't know how many jealous people there are!"
"Mediocre people don't get jealous. It's normal."
Chen Qi didn't care and said with a smile: "The most important thing right now is to shoot the show well. In front of the work (ex) product (ex), all reactionaries are paper tigers!"
"You are more free and easy than me, okay, you can do the trick well!"
…
Yuan Heping has to wait for the filming to start before joining the team, and now it is intensive training.
These people were all non-professional actors, and they had to be taught some basic knowledge. So when spring was blooming in the capital, the main creators came to the Beijing Film Studio one after another and organized a training class for more than a dozen people.
Team leader Li Wenhua, deputy team leader Chen Qi.
In the group, there are all national martial arts champions, runner-ups, and at worst provincial competition champions. Only Ji Chunhua has no honor. This old boy can’t hold his head high, but he feels that he has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders: he represents Zhejiang, so he must not be embarrassed!
Others have similar ideas. Those from Beijing, Shandong, and Guangxi must win glory. If you lose face, you will lose the face of your hometown!
Chen Qi felt this high-spirited spirit and was so happy: "I have never seen such a scene in the future. The crappy crew I was with, except for the kissing scene, they were all stand-ins.
The fight scenes are all slow-motion special effects, he can't even dance the sword flower, and he doesn't even have the proper manners to walk, just like a powerful man carrying a turtle shell on his back.
This is called the Dragon-Tiger Meeting in Beijing!"
