Rebirth of the courtyard, the start is 80s

Chapter 411 If you want to say that, I will completely understand

There was no words all the way, and the plane quickly landed at Dajiaochang Airport in Jinling City.

After Cao Zhiqiang got off the plane and walked into the airport, he soon met Li Youfu and his party who came to pick him up.

"Oh, President Cao." Li Youfu, who was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, greeted him with a smile, holding Cao Zhiqiang's hand tightly with both hands, "It's been a hard journey!"

Cao Zhiqiang chuckled: "It's nothing hard, but you, Manager Li, have been waiting for a long time, haven't you?"

"No." Li Youfu laughed, "I just arrived not too long ago."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, retracted his hand, and said to the people around him: "You already know my two younger sisters, so I won't introduce them.

As for these two, first of all, this is Zhu Lin, Ms. Zhu, you should have known each other a long time ago, right? "

Li Youfu was taken aback, looked at Zhu Lin, then at Cao Zhiqiang, obviously he didn't know him.

Cao Zhiqiang raised his eyebrows, and said hastily: "Look at you, what kind of eyes are you wearing? You can't recognize him because he's wearing sunglasses?
This is the big star you've been thinking of, the heroine in the movie "Legend of Liyuan", the actor of Hua Xiangrong! "

"Oh, that's right!" Li Youfu quickly nodded and smiled at Zhu Lin with a look of sudden realization, but he didn't shake hands rashly.

"I've seen the movie The Legend of Liyuan, the heroine is really amazing!
Miss Zhu, I'm a fan of your movie. I didn't expect to see the big star in person today. I'm so lucky!
It's all because of my bad eyesight. You didn't recognize me when you were wearing sunglasses. Don't blame me! "

Upon hearing this, Zhu Lin immediately smiled slightly, and gently took off his sunglasses: "Where is it, Manager Li has won the award."

Speaking of this, Zhu Lin generously extended his right hand to shake Li Youfu's hand.

Li Youfu quickly wiped his hands on his trousers, then gently shook hands with Zhu Lin in a polite manner, and quickly let go.

That's right, let's not talk about whether the other party is a big star or not. The atmosphere of this era is inherently conservative, and strange men and women rarely have direct skin-to-skin contact.

What's more, this so-called female star came with Cao Zhiqiang, so he inevitably had to think a little more.

Whether you think about it or not, there is always something wrong with breaking the rules.

After Li Youfu shook hands with Zhu Lin and greeted him, Cao Zhiqiang pointed at Xu Qingdong who also just took off his sunglasses.

"This is Xu Qingdong, director Xu. Although he is not well-known, he is very capable. He is also my main helper for filming this time. It can be said that the entire filming crew was almost organized by him alone."

"Director Xu!" Li Youfu shook hands with the other party and greeted him again, "I've seen you for a long time."

"To each other." Xu Qingdong chuckled, "Manager Li is also young and promising."

"Where is it?" Li Youfu shook his head, "I dare not, the real young and promising must be our President Cao."

Cao Zhiqiang laughed, and then said: "Okay, stop bragging about this business. Lao Li, is the car ready, take us to the hotel quickly, and let everyone go to bed early."

Hearing this, Li Youfu looked at the crowd, then smiled wryly at Cao Zhiqiang and said, "President, I'm sorry, you didn't say you would bring two more people here, so I prepared a Crown, This, this seems to be impossible to sit on."

When Cao Zhiqiang heard this, he immediately understood that he was negligent.

That's right, Xu Qingdong and Zhu Lin didn't come to Jinling City by plane this time. They originally planned to come by train with other members of the crew.

It's just that last night he discussed the script and filming with Xu Qingdong until late at night, and saw that Xu Qingdong was tired, so Cao Zhiqiang improvised to take Xu Qingdong to fly together.

As for Zhu Lin, it was Xu Qingdong's request to add it, saying that Zhu Lin had a bad relationship with his husband recently, his health was a little poor, and the train ride was too hard, and he hoped that he could take Zhu Lin with him.

Cao Zhiqiang thought about it, bringing one is also bringing, and carrying two is also carrying, it is nothing more than adding two more names on the letter of introduction, so he agreed.

It just so happened that Zhu Lin was the heroine and had a lot of roles. Let the heroine rest well and talk to her more about the drama.

So, early this morning, Xu Qingdong temporarily pulled Zhu Lin over by force, and then boarded the plane together.

For this reason, Cao Zhiqiang also secretly asked Xu Qingdong if he had that kind of relationship with Zhu Lin directly.

As a result, Xu Qingdong denied it flatly, and asked Cao Zhiqiang not to talk nonsense.

You know, Xu Qingdong is already married, and Zhu Lin is also a married woman. During this period, things like cheating can't be talked about nonsense.

And on the way here, Xu Qingdong secretly told Cao Zhiqiang that he was not familiar with Zhu Lin at first, but that he knew her father.

Before, it was just because he was very quiet and wanted to make a TV show in the form of a musical drama pioneered by Donne. He couldn't find a suitable actor for a while, but a colleague of Beijing Film Academy recommended her.

Xu Qingdong felt that Zhu Lin's temperament was not bad, and he happened to be in the capital. He heard that there was no drama recently, so he went to find her and planned to ask her to act in a music video.

Afterwards, Cao Zhiqiang knew about it, because Cao Zhiqiang came up with a better script, so Xu Qingdong decided not to make a music video, and changed to Cao Zhiqiang's Love in the Guting.

Later, because the back view could not be filmed for the time being, the matter of this movie was put on hold for the time being.

Unexpectedly, Cao Zhiqiang opened his own film studio in a short period of time, when he planned to invest in the filming of this movie himself.

The conditions were so good, so when Xu Qingdong heard the news, he went to Zhu Lin's home the same day, wanting to tell her about the reopening of the filming, and ask Zhu Lin if he was still interested in continuing to act.

As a result, at night, he happened to meet her arguing with her husband at her house.

In order to avoid trouble, Xu Qingdong left quickly, and planned to change to another person to shoot, and his favorite female lead candidate at that time was Gong Xue.

Because he felt that apart from Zhu Lin, Gong Xue was more in line with that female teacher's temperament.

Unexpectedly, the next morning, Zhu Lin went to his house to block the door, insisting on acting as the heroine of the play.

So Xu Qingdong had no choice but to agree.

Anyway, according to Xu Qingdong's intention, Zhu Lin requested to act in this play, and because of this play, she almost broke up with her husband.

If it was possible, Xu Qingdong really didn't want to use this kind of actress whose family was in trouble, and everyone lived in the capital, which would easily cause scandals.

You know, the capital city seems to be very big, but the film and television industry is so big, but it is actually very small.

So Zhu Lin's falling out with her husband in order to film with Xu Qingdong actually spread like wildfire very quickly.

God is sorry, Xu Qingdong has already explained and swore to his wife in various ways just because of Zhu Lin.

Fortunately, his wife was more reasonable, so she was not affected by this incident and still believed in him.

Anyway, according to Xu Qingdong, he and Zhu Lin are purely working, and there is no ambiguity at all.

As for why Zhu Lin was brought to fly, it was purely because it felt better.

After all, in Cao Zhiqiang's script, it is mainly about the male and female protagonists, so these two are very important.

In addition, although Zhu Lin is not particularly famous, he has a lot of experience after all.

Therefore, letting Cao Zhiqiang stay with Zhu Lin for a while will help strengthen Cao Zhiqiang's acting skills.

Although Cao Zhiqiang understands the script better and knows how to act, and can embody the emotions of the actor, his acting skills in the subtleties are still not good enough, and he needs an old driver to guide him.

To put it more clearly, it's like dancing ballroom dancing.

When two people are dancing ballroom dancing, if one person can't dance, the other can dance. If you want to get into the state early, the best way is to let the two people get in touch together more often, and let the dancer take you.

Originally, Xu Qingdong thought that Cao Zhiqiang would also take the train, so he wanted Cao Zhiqiang and Zhu Lin to be in the same sleeper, so that he could talk about dramas on the way and hone his acting skills.

As for the issue of sleeping berths, it shouldn't be a problem for a person of Cao Zhiqiang's status.

Who knows, Cao Zhiqiang did not take the usual route, instead of taking the train and taking the plane.

In this way, Zhu Lin will be brought together.

After all, as Xu Qingdong said, this play is mainly a play between the male and female protagonists.

So Cao Zhiqiang, the male lead, and Zhu Lin, the female lead, are the two most important characters.

If you want to finish it as soon as possible, the two must cooperate tacitly, otherwise it will only waste time.

Cao Zhiqiang was right when he thought about it, there was indeed some truth to it, so he agreed with this statement.

In short, because the joining of Xu Qingdong and Zhu Lin was a temporary idea, the two names were added temporarily, so Li Youfu was a little bit overwhelmed.

After all, it was agreed on the phone that there were only three people, that is, Cao Zhiqiang and his two younger sisters.

If it's just three people, a Crown car is enough.

As for this Crown car, Li Youfu borrowed it through his relationship.

But now that there are two more people, there is obviously not enough room.

"It's so difficult." Cao Zhiqiang smiled when he heard this, "One car can't fit in one time, so it can be divided into two."

Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang looked at Xu Qingdong and Zhu Lin again and said, "How about this, you two go to the Jinling Hotel by car first, and my sister and I will wait here. After Lao Li finishes seeing you off, come and pull us."

"It's inappropriate." Xu Qingdong said, "Why don't I wait here with Zhu Lin, Qiangzi, take your sister to the hotel first."

"That's right, President Cao." Zhu Lin said with a smile, "No matter what, Director Xu and I are both adults, so it's not a big problem to wait here.

But your two younger sisters are both children, so it's really inappropriate for children to wait here. "

"Manager Li." Xu Qingdong asked Li Youfu suddenly, "How many people can that car carry?"

Li Youfu was taken aback, but quickly replied: "With the driver included, there are five people in total."

"Then we have a total of six people, if we squeeze together, it should be fine." Xu Qingdong said.

"I can't." Li Youfu smiled wryly, "Actually, there was a driver who came with me, but he didn't follow, and he was in the car. So, there are actually seven people, and they can't be squeezed together."

"Understood." Xu Qingdong nodded, and said to Li Youfu, "Why don't I wait here with you, and let the driver take Qiangzi's family and Miss Zhu away first, and then pull them away when they come back. We two.

You and I are both old men, it doesn't matter to wait, but Miss Zhu is a woman, so it's too inappropriate to wait with me here.

As for Qiangzi, you have to go first. If you don't go, who will book a room for us, right? "

"This..." Li Youfu was stunned for a moment, then looked back at Cao Zhiqiang, meaning to listen to you.

Cao Zhiqiang frowned and looked at Xu Qingdong: "Old Xu, what do you mean?"

Xu Qingdong blinked, then pulled Cao Zhiqiang aside, and then whispered: "Qiangzi, if you leave first, leaving me and Zhu Lin, this lonely man and widow, it's hard to say.

If it gets out, I can't tell.

Being with you is different. There is such a big age gap between you and Ms. Zhu, no one will say that you two have an affair, let alone you have two younger sisters.

So, please help me, I really can't be alone with this Zhu Lin, I have to pay attention to the influence! "

"I didn't expect you to be a strict wife?" Cao Zhiqiang glanced at Xu Qingdong sideways.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "Okay, since that's the case, I'll listen to you."

In this way, Cao Zhiqiang listened to Xu Qingdong's arrangement, and he, Cao Lili, Qiao Simei, and Zhu Lin boarded the Crown car waiting outside together, and went to Jinling Hotel first.

After his group was taken to the hotel, the Crown car went to the airport to pick up Xu Qingdong and Li Youfu.

In this way, everyone is indeed happy.

Originally, this was fine, but when Zhu Lin got out of the car with Cao Zhiqiang and his party and came to the reception desk of Jinling Hotel, he immediately frowned.

"Wait a minute, President Cao, you, you don't want me to live here, do you?" Zhu Lin asked.

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "Don't worry, I will arrange a room for you alone, let you have a good rest, and will not let you be with my sister."

"That's not what I mean." Zhu Lin shook his head, "I mean, it's too expensive here, right?"

After a short meal, Zhu Lin said: "The standard room here costs 650 yuan a night, this, this is half a year's salary for me!

In short, this is too extravagant, I don't feel at ease living here, let's change to another place, just live in an ordinary guest house. "

Before Cao Zhiqiang could speak, Qiao Simi smiled and said, "Aunt Zhu, don't worry, my brother has money. To him, this little money is just a little rain, not worth mentioning at all."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "Yes, Ms. Zhu, you can rest assured. Although the room rate here is expensive, to me, it is no different from ordinary people's dime.

Besides, you and I are the hero and heroine, so I ask you to take care of me in the future.

If I live here and you live in another hotel, wouldn't I have to travel a long way when I talk to you about a play?

So, you can live in peace.

As I said long ago, this is paid out of my own pocket, not included in the public expenses for filming. "

Zhu Lin frowned: "But here, living in such an expensive room, I always feel uneasy."

Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile: "Ms. Zhu, now it's a market economy, and the film and television industry will also usher in changes.

An excellent actress like you will sooner or later become famous, and sooner or later she will not be short of money.

Therefore, in a big hotel like this, it won't take long for you to live in it easily without blinking your eyes.

Now we just live in early, it's nothing. "

Zhu Lin said: "But we live here, and other actors and crew members live in guest houses. Isn't this a bit too special? It's easy to get separated from the masses."

Cao Zhiqiang shook his head: "Ms. Zhu..."

"Wait a minute!" Zhu Lin laughed again, "Why do you keep calling me Ms.? You don't call me Miss?"

"Eh..." Cao Zhiqiang blinked, thinking, could I tell you that in my previous life, the word "Miss" was already stigmatized?
But yes, young lady in this period is still a compliment and has not been stigmatized.

"How about this." Cao Zhiqiang said, "You are older than me, how about I call you Sister Zhu? You are also like Director Xu, call me Qiangzi, so don't call me president all day long."

Zhu Lin was taken aback for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Okay, Qiangzi."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, and then said: "Back to the topic, the key to this drama is the performance of you and me, and everyone else exists around our story.

As for the salaries of other people, I drive very high, and the accommodation environment is definitely above the average level.

To put it bluntly, everyone came here to film for the purpose of making money, so there will be no complaints, let alone divorce from the masses.

Today is a market economy, and the market has the final say in everything, or the money owner has the final say.

Coincidentally, I am not only the leading actor of this drama, but also the screenwriter, director and producer, so my words are the final decision.

If other people feel that my decision is out of touch with the masses, they can leave at any time, and I never force it to stay.

So sister Zhu, you don't have to worry about the morale of other crew members.

Not all shooting should pay attention to sharing joys and sorrows.

In fact, for most film workers, what they want is nothing more than fame and fortune.

If you don't have a name, it's a profit.

I pay them high salaries and good treatment, and they can make more money filming with me, unless they are stupid to contradict me.

Of course, when director Xu selected candidates, he had already screened them, and it was impossible for those who would contradict him to join this team.

So, you don't need to worry about breaking away from the masses.

Live here with peace of mind, take a good rest, and then go all out to shoot the trick well, that is to let me down, understand? "

Zhu Lin nodded: "Understood, but during the future filming process, we won't live here all the time? This is a lot of expenses. Is it really worthwhile to do this?"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "Whether it's a good deal or not, that's up to me as the director of the film studio and the producer. Sister Zhu, you are just an actor, isn't it a bit...haha."

Zhu Lin sighed: "Okay, you've already talked about this, and I have nothing to say. After all, I can live comfortably. Who wouldn't like it? I'm just worried about overspending."

"Don't worry." Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile, "I know it well."

After a short pause, Cao Zhiqiang said: "It's the same sentence, if you really feel sorry, you should act well and teach me how to act.

This is my first play, and it must be a success.

As long as the show is successful and popular, that's enough for me, money or not is secondary. "

"If you say that, I completely understand." Zhu Lin smiled slightly.

"Don't worry, I also like this drama, especially the characters in this drama, and I want to take this opportunity to make a breakthrough. So, this time I will definitely do my best, and I won't let you down, Director Cao! "
