1979 Golden Age

Chapter 728 Second Round of Consultations

Seeing Tsui Hark again, he has become a riding area up master.

The beard is very long, the hair is messy, and the whole body is dirty, but the eyes are particularly clear, as if he has experienced a great baptism, and is the kind that has broken away from all low-level tastes and moved towards a higher spiritual realm.

Counting on his fingers, he found that it had been almost two months since he ran away. When he came back and saw Chen Qi, he just kept saying one sentence: "The mountains and rivers are magnificent, the trip is worth it!"

"Where have you been? I haven't received a letter for so long."

"Northwest, Southwest, East China Sea, South China Sea. I originally wanted to go to Northeastern Province..."

"Eastern three provinces! Eastern three provinces!" Chen Qi corrected.

"It's all the same. It's a pity that it's summer now. If it were winter, I would definitely go to Heilongjiang."

Tsui Hark was so excited that he brought back many photos and several boxes of video tapes. At Chen Qi's home, Gong Xue and Shi Nansheng accompanied them to watch. The majestic snow-capped mountains, desolate desert, and endless sea were really touching, and sometimes they were amazed.

"Have you chosen the right scene?"

"I want to use them all."

"How is that possible? It's very uncoordinated to have so many different landscapes in one movie. Besides, if you've already finished one movie, why would you make a sequel?"

Chen Qi picked it up, pointed to the photo of an isolated island standing in the blue sea, and said: "That's it! The Asian branch is also related to Japan. Snowy mountains and deserts are very abstract, and a small island is more suitable."

"Well, that's okay too!"

Tsui Hark thought for a while and said: "The comrades from the Bayi Factory took me to meet the head of the local navy. They were also willing to help and said that as long as we shoot there, we will give them their full help!"

"Navy? That's great!"

Chen Qi sighed silently, saying that the navy these days would bring tears to his eyes.

The equipment is backward, the technology is limited, and the funds are insufficient. A wooden house is built to defend the reefs in the South China Sea. During the crisis in the Taiwan Strait, land guns are mounted on the ship... How can it be like decades later? So is the Sichuan ship an aircraft carrier?

But it should be no problem to assist in making a movie.

"I found something too!"

Chen Qi showed Tsui Hark a documentary about the military exercise and showed the footage of planes flying across the runway and bombing wildly.

"This is good!"

Tsui Hark looked at it and slapped his thigh, and said: "This is the scene where the protagonist group escapes at the end. After a few people blow up the base, they fly a plane, take off in a cloud of gunpowder smoke, and leave the island!"

"Then there will be a big aerial panorama. The whole island is like a huge firework box, bang bang bang, showing an explosive beauty!"

"Yes! That's what it feels like!"

The more the two chatted, the happier they became. They unconsciously perfected the details, and the topic gradually went off the rails.

For example, the Japanese villain has a beautiful girl goon who is a defective super soldier and has a certain fighting ability. The image is wearing a sailor suit, long straight black hair, white stockings, two beautiful legs...

Chen Qi continued the tradition and named the character: Arina Hashimoto!

Tsui Hark was so excited that he started storyboarding on the spot.

The two ladies couldn't stand it anymore and forcibly interrupted them. Chen Qi had no choice but to lose his friend and said: "You and Nan Sheng should go back to the hotel first. The second round of talks is about to take place. You can rest in time for the meeting."

"Then let's go first. Ashue, have a good rest and come see my godson another day!"

Shi Nansheng grabbed Xu Hark and went out.

With the consent of their parents, Zhuang Zhuang and Shi Nansheng really made a pact to call themselves godmothers from now on. This kind of dry marriage is very popular in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. No one dares to ask Chen Qi to form a contract. Shi Nansheng is purely emotional.

Chen Qi likes her, Gong Xue also likes her, but Lao Xu is even worse.

If possible, he would also like his son to recognize the godfather in Shanghai... and then go sideways!

He sent the two of them downstairs, then ran to another unit, kicked up and knocked on the door: "Teacher Li? Teacher Li?"

The door opened with a creak, revealing Li Jianqun's face.

"Have you finished drawing what I want?"

"The painting is done! Come in and take a look."

"Isn't it inconvenient to be alone under the sun with a man and a woman?" Chen Qi walked into the room.

Li Jianqun was too lazy to answer and just took out a rectangular wooden picture frame. It was not small, more than two meters long. There is a painting embedded in it. It can be seen that it was a little sloppy in a hurry, but the general idea is correct.

He looked at it and felt good. He smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work. What else have you been busy with recently?"

"I just came back from Dunhuang a while ago and will go to Hong Kong later."

"Oh, okay, there's no drama anyway."

Li Jianqun has the most freedom at Dongfang Company. When she has no tasks, she either stays at home or sketches everywhere to find inspiration. She also went to Hong Kong, but not with Chen Qi. She participated in several left-wing films as costume design.

I have little interest in modern clothing, but I still like ancient Chinese charm.

Chen Qi took the painting home. Gong Xue took a look at it and said with a smile, "You really made such a thing?"

"This is the only image. What's the point of talking about it? I'll put the painting out, and the leaders will know what it looks like at a glance."

In fact, this kind of thing is best done with computer software. There are no conditions now, and home computers have just been released in the United States.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

The couple was busy with various trivial matters and entertained the children for a while.

Gong Xue fed her once, but her milk supply was not enough, so she needed supplementary milk powder. And her mother took the initiative to take care of the baby at night, fearing that it would affect the young couple's rest and make the elderly sleep less. Anyone who has raised children knows how noisy babies can be at night.

………

The new leader of the Ministry of Truth is named Zhu.

In July, the first major event he faced when he took office was the Hong Kong delegation's visit to Beijing.

The size of the staff is similar to last time, with only one more person, Fang Yihua. Sister-in-law Fang Yihua is the key. She represents Run Run Shaw, and the combined financial resources of these people are not as rich as Run Run Shaw.

Although he is not the top rich man in Hong Kong, he is still quite powerful. He left an inheritance of more than 20 billion after his death, not to mention having a public opinion mouthpiece like TVB. Therefore, if Run Run Shaw is not involved in the matter of the film and television city, there is basically no chance.

The sun is scorching hot in the capital.

Leader Zhu, wearing a common short-sleeved shirt for veteran cadres, sandals, and a pair of brown glasses, drove to the Ministry of Culture in a car.

The official staff here are also similar to last time, with only two more representatives from Guangdong Province.

Everyone greeted him politely, and Chen Qi arrived soon. Leader Zhu paid great attention to him and immediately greeted: "Comrade Xiao Chen!"

"Hello hello!"

Chen Qi came over to greet him.

"I've heard about you a long time ago. It's not easy to start a business in Hong Kong!"

"You're very grateful. It's all thanks to organizational support and everyone's joint efforts. I just made a small contribution."

"Okay, go ahead and get busy. We'll have a meeting later."

Leader Zhu had a good impression. The young man was fair, handsome, humble, decent and talented.

And he asked Ding Qiao, "Who is on the leadership team of Dongfang Company?"

"Officially, there are only three people. One is Li Mingfu, who was assigned by the organization. One is Xiao Chen, who is in charge of production and operation; and the other is Liang Xiaosheng, who is in charge of the magazine and some miscellaneous tasks."

"So simple? How many regular employees do they have?"

"The total number of people in the two places is less than a hundred, about sixty or seventy."

"Sixty or seventy people can achieve such great results? This company is incredible! Comrade Xiao Chen is even more outstanding and a model for young cadres."

Ding Qiao nodded in agreement, not understanding what the other party meant.

Not long after, everything was ready and everyone got up and went to the conference room to start the second round of negotiations on Hong Kong films entering Guangdong.
