Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 1005 Visiting the Set of My Baby Son

As for Lou's father and mother, why did they also follow him back to the capital?

I can only say that when people get old, the feeling of returning to their roots is easy to understand.

At that time, Lou's father was unwilling to go to Hong Kong Island. Later, Chu Xiangqian explained the possible dangers in the future through Lou Xiao'e.

Father Lou had no choice but to leave.

After Lou's father and mother left, Lou Xiao'e's aunt and uncle left later.

Things went much more smoothly.

However, even after Lou Xiao'e returned to the capital, she was still unwilling to live in the Qianmen courtyard.

Chu Xiangqian could probably guess what she was thinking.

First of all, I am not familiar with Xue Jinglan, Margaret, Feifei and others.

Secondly, Lou Xiao'e is a non-competitive person and she is afraid that she might become a threat in the eyes of her sisters.

It would be better for me to live my own life with Jingxi in peace.

Thirdly, she was still thinking about the friendship between her and Qin Huairu, in which they had waited for and served their men together for more than ten years.

From now on, since he will live with Xue Jinglan and the others, Chu Xiangqian will visit Qin Huairu less and less often.

When she thought of Sister Qin's expectant and then disappointed eyes, Lou Xiao'e felt that Sister Qin had taken care of her in the past.

I should help her in the future.

So nominally, Lou Xiao'e, Jing Xi and their mother and daughter live with Lou's father and mother.

But after settling down in the capital, this woman really chose a time to temporarily hand Jingxi over to the care of her parents.

He pulled Chu Xiangqian and went to the small courtyard on Shatan Street.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Qin Huairu heard the sound of the door opening and walked out of the hall anxiously.

Qin Huairu already knew at the end of last year that Lou Xiao'e had given birth to a daughter for Chu Xiangqian.

I was happy for Lou Xiao'e, after all, Lou Xiao'e had always thought that there was something wrong with her body.

I have been looking forward to having a child for almost 20 years, and at one point I even wanted to adopt one.

I’m feeling better now. I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been eating well and taking good care of myself over the years.

Qin Huairu was naturally happy for Lou Xiao'e as she became a mother as she wished.

But while I was happy, I also started to worry about myself.

As people reach middle age, although their figures become slightly fatter, they look more feminine.

For some reason, his face looked like he was in his early thirties.

For this reason, Qin Huairu and Lou Xiao'e have dressed themselves up beautifully whenever they go out for many years.

On the contrary, they will make themselves look older.

Only when they go to see Chu Xiangqian will they return to their most beautiful appearance.

But after all, she is no longer the pretty widow she used to be, so Qin Huairu can't help but worry that Chu Xiangqian is tired of her.

Fortunately, the relationship between Lou Xiao'e and her has withstood the test of more than ten years, and it is no exaggeration to say that they are like sisters.

Even stronger than the relationship between sisters.

Chu Xiangqian actually always liked the charming Qin Huairu. And although there was no love between them, there must be some affection between them after years of getting along.

Especially this woman, like Lou Xiao'e, is obedient to me in everything.

And try your best to please.

Chu Xiangqian saw that Qin Huairu was looking at him with expectation and hesitation, and knew that this woman was daydreaming again.

There was no need to waste time talking nonsense. He just picked up the woman and went into the house to play the game.

After a fierce battle, the strangeness caused by not seeing each other for many days was easily restored to the previous intimate relationship.

When the two women joined forces, they were defeated miserably as usual, and Qin Huairu's grudge immediately disappeared.

Not only did she teach Lou Xiao'e how to raise children with a smile, she also directly asked Jingxi to call her godmother in the future.

Lou Xiao'e naturally had no objection.

But his eyes were still on Chu Xiangqian, his father.

Chu Xiangqian smiled and agreed.

I knew Qin Huairu was scheming the moment I met her.

But it’s actually very nice to marry this woman.

Not only beautiful, but also hardworking.

The reason why people scold her when watching TV dramas is just because she keeps hanging that idiot Sha Zhu.

But her attitude towards the Jia family is really beyond reproach.

After hooking up with Chu Xiangqian, she also served him wholeheartedly.

Of course, Chu Xiangqian didn't treat her badly.

One of them is lustful, and the other just wants to feed his family.

As for Qin Huairu's greed for money, this woman actually doesn't have much ambition.

After I gave her a gold bar that year, I was completely devoted to her.

Knowing that Chu Xiangqian didn't like the Jia family's children, Qin Huairu rarely mentioned the couple.

After hanging out in the yard on Shatan Street for a day, Lou Xiao'e returned to her parents' home to take care of her baby daughter.

Life calmed down again for a few months.

That day, Chu Xiangqian took Xue Jinglan and drove to a small mountain village outside the capital.

Jingrong has been studying at Beijing Film Academy for two years and has made several short films during this period.

But they are all for practice purposes.

Although this kid has no shortage of money or connections, he has been smart since he was young and has been badly betrayed by his father from time to time.

In addition, my biological mother, stepmother and others are not from wealthy families.

The discipline on Jingrong is still very strict.

He has been practicing martial arts with his master since he was young, and sometimes he would be punished if he was lazy.

As a father, Chu Xiangqian will not show mercy when it comes to beating someone.

So there is almost no dandy habits on him.

Of course, children from rich and powerful families do have some minor flaws like arrogance.

When we arrived at the place, we saw Jingrong and four or five classmates waiting at the entrance of the village from afar.

As soon as Jing Rong saw the new Land Cruiser that was released this year, he raised his hands and shook them continuously.

When several classmates around him saw this, they knew that it must be the super rich parents that Jingrong mentioned.

I think if I can get the approval of my uncles and aunts, this movie that is currently being filmed can be sent to Europe to participate in the film festival.

These young people from the directing, photography and editing departments of the Beijing Film Academy waved as if they had seen a mentor.

Chu Xiangqian, who was driving, couldn't help but say to Xue Jinglan, who was sitting next to him, with a smile, "It seems that Rongrong has repeatedly invited us to come over. He must have something to ask of us."

Xue Jinglan smiled and nodded, but said, "You are Rongrong's father, isn't it your duty to help your child?"

Chu Xiangqian could tell that there was some resentment in his daughter-in-law's tone.

I know that the mother must be heartbroken that her child has to suffer here.

He smiled and said, "No problem, even if you want to send this movie that is currently being filmed to Magna for screening, that's fine.

And I guarantee there will be no fewer than 500 screens.”

Xue Jinglan then looked at her man with satisfaction and gave him a charming smile.

Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but feel warmed at the sight of this, thinking that this mature woman had become charming. The seduction and enthusiasm in her eyes alone were incomparable to those of a young girl.

Xue Jinglan knew at a glance that Chu Xiangqian must have some evil intentions.

While he gave Chu Xiangqian a blank look, he was actually very happy in his heart.

Chu Xiangqian is 40 years old this year, and Xue Jinglan is 38 years old. In the minds of people of this generation, they are already middle-aged women.

So Xue Jinglan was very proud that she could still attract Chu Xiangqian at her age. Just as she was about to say something, Chu Xiangqian grabbed her tender hand and kissed her on the lips.

This made Xue Jinglan blush slightly, and she glared at Chu Xiangqian with a coquettish look.

However, the car was almost at the village entrance, so Xue Jinglan had to quickly withdraw her hand.

He warned Chu Xiangqian, "Behave yourself. If you mess around in front of classmate Rongrong, I won't forgive you when we get back."

Chu Xiangqian chuckled and thought to himself, you still can't let me go?

I don’t know who he is, but he always admits defeat and begs for mercy every time he plays a game.

As soon as Xue Jinglan saw Chu Xiangqian's eyes, she guessed what this bastard was thinking.

She cursed inwardly, wondering why she would marry this beast.

After the car stopped, Jing Rong ran to the passenger seat like a lackey and reached out to open the door for his mother.

This made Xue Jinglan's smile become even brighter.

Chu Xiangqian didn't bother with Jing Rong. He smiled and opened the door himself, his eyes fixed on the young Director Chen and Master Zhang.

As for Tian Zhuangzhuang and Gu Changwei, Chu Xiangqian certainly knew that they would achieve great things in the future.

But compared with the previous two, his fame is much less.

However, these days, Tian Zhuangzhuang is the student with the widest network of contacts among mainland students in the class.

Throughout the 80s, he was the most popular student in his class.

Unfortunately, he got into trouble in the end and was banned from directing for 10 years.

After Jingrong went to Beijing Film Academy, this kid easily became the most famous student in the school.

In the first semester of my freshman year, I got the latest camera from Hong Kong Island.

The machine alone cost more than 300,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is better than the machines used by Norfilm itself.

And this machine was a gift from Baoyi to Jingrong.

If you want to buy something better, there are ones priced at millions.

This machine also became the camera Jingrong used to shoot his first short film.

I heard that my classmates from the photography department at that time competed privately countless times to become Jingrong's photographer.

Chu Xiangqian naturally never interfered with Jingrong's affairs at school, but this kid did ask his father for a script.

Over the years, Chu Xiangqian has not paid much attention to "Chu's Films" in Hong Kong and Universal Pictures in Taiwan.

But from time to time when he thought of a good movie, he would write it down and then give the script to Zou Wenhuai.

And in order to prevent the director from adding his own ideas, I will definitely read his script before it is finished.

If it doesn’t work, modify it or reshoot it.

Therefore, all the scripts written by Chu Xiangqian have never failed.

With such a great screenwriter at home, who is also his biological father, Jing Rong would certainly not let him go.

Moreover, after his biological father refused twice, Jing Rong not only asked his biological sister Jing Yu for help.

I even asked my biological mother and Baoyi for help.

Chu Xiangqian was so annoyed by Jingyu and Baoyi that he took some time to tell them the general plot of "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog".

Unexpectedly, Jingrong became interested as soon as he heard it, and ran to school to find a few classmates to start writing the script.

When the script finally came out, it was of course somewhat different from the movie Chu Xiangqian remembered.

After all, the times are different, so the scripts are naturally different.

But the core has not changed.

Chu Xiangqian suggested showing it in Japan, but he couldn't guarantee whether the box office would be the same as in the previous life.

However, as the first feature-length film for a student who has not yet graduated, this script is actually a bit of a waste.

But think about it, this movie only made tens of thousands of dollars at the box office in China in its previous life.

There is nothing to regret.

Finally it was sold to Japan for 6 and it was released for two years without being taken off the screen.

It can be seen that the Japanese really like it.

As times are different and audience preferences are different, Chu Xiangqian can only say that as long as the cost is earned back, that's enough.

It may be possible to have people remake it in the future. Anyway, this movie started filming in 99 and was released in Japan the following year.

Now it is the 80s. Ten or twenty years later, it won’t cost much to remake a movie.

As soon as Chu Xiangqian got out of the car, he greeted Chen Kaige, Tian Zhuangzhuang, Lao Mouzi and others.

Several young men were so nervous that they could not speak clearly.

Everyone stood up straight as if they were welcoming a big leader, and while holding Chu Xiangqian's hands with both hands, they also bowed and saluted.

Chu Xiangqian laughed when he saw this.

Even for Tian Zhuangzhuang, a second-generation film star, it took him several years to shoot his first movie.

Brother Chen Kai and Lao Mouzi started even later. After graduation, they messed around in the film studio for several years, seven or eight years, before they got a chance.

After some pleasantries, the young men felt that Chu Xiangqian was so approachable and their liking for him increased greatly.

When they saw Xue Jinglan, the boys stared at her in amazement.

Although there are few pretty girls, there are some in Beijing, especially in Beijing Film Academy.

But beauty, temperament, and especially the air of wealth cultivated over many years, are truly something I have never seen before.

Just think about the mother of the classmate in front of me. Two years ago, she donated 1 million to the school and another million to the city.

These days, Guangdong Province’s GDP was just over 200 billion last year.

There is only about 120 billion in Beijing, and the young people admire and respect Xue Jinglan.

I even began to feel jealous of Chu Xiangqian.

However, think about it, there are rumors in the school that the media in Hong Kong has reported that Chu Jingrong's father was once the richest man in the world.

Wealth exceeds $60 billion.

Converted into Celestial Currency, it directly exceeded Beijing’s GDP last year.

Moreover, in recent years, this tycoon has been hiding and transferring his wealth.

I heard that Jingrong’s sister owns 11 buildings in Hong Kong Island and 2 buildings in Neon Tokyo.

He has assets worth $500 million to $600 million.

Just thinking about the wealth calculated in billions, and in US dollars, everyone in the school looked at Chu Jingrong as if they wanted to swallow him up.

Especially those little girls, who were always looking for ways to dress up beautifully and appear around him.

I don’t know how many male classmates were envied and jealous.

Although Chu Xiangqian was polite to these future bigwigs in the film industry, he was not very enthusiastic.

The future is the future, but now, we are all rookies who have not yet entered the industry.

Instead, it was Da Zhuang and Hong Niu beside Jing Rong who made Chu Xiangqian squat and interact with them for a long time.

Counting the time, Chu Xiangqian and these two hunting dogs have been together for 21 years.

After the introduction, we entered the village. I have to say, the mountain villages around the capital at that time were very beautiful with their green mountains and clear waters.

I heard from Jingrong that they had originally planned to go to Yunnan and Guizhou.

But after a security guard at the school introduced the village to me, I came over to take a look.

Then Jing Rong and several assistant directors and photographers took a liking to this place at first sight.

When he saw that the leading actor was Zhang Fengyi, who was from the same class, and then looked at his youthful and shy smile, Chu Xiangqian immediately felt that this kid really fit the image of the protagonist in the movie.

After watching a day of filming, Chu Xiangqian was still very satisfied with Jing Rong and the crew he had assembled.

Jingrong grew up in Hong Kong Island. He followed Baoyi to the film crew when he was very young, and he was also the beloved son of a big boss.

So even if this kid stays with the director, no one will chase him away.

He was even taught how to film and act.
