Started as an independent producer in 1988

Chapter 174 173. Come and kneel and lick!

In the dark theater, under the strong spotlight, the face could not be seen clearly, only two blurry shadows could be seen.

"Your Majesty, give me the sword quickly!" Yu Ji reached out to grab the sword in Duan Xiaolou's hand, but he dodged it and said sadly: "Concubine! You must seek such a short-sightedness~"

"Your Majesty, give me the sword quickly!"

"No way"

Duan Xiaolou staggered back a step, gasped and waved his hands: "No, it's not working anymore, it's not working anymore, I can't keep up."

Duan Xiaolou walked down the stage in vain. He could no longer sing the words, and he couldn't bring himself to regain the breath he felt in his heart.

Yu Ji looked at his back with a smile on her face, watching her overlord come to an end.

Duan Xiaolou took off the beard on his face and muttered about getting old. He turned around and looked at Yu Ji. He suddenly remembered something and couldn't help shouting: "Little girl Fang Erba!"

The smile on Yu Ji's face disappeared and she looked at him steadily.

Duan Xiaolou clasped his hands on his waist and looked at Cheng Dieyi, as if he had returned to his childhood.

Cheng Dieyi's eyes flashed and he sang: "When I was young, my hair was cut off by the master."

Duan Xiaolou shouted again: "I am a man!"

Cheng Dieyi murmured: "It's not Nv Jiao'e."

"Wrong, wrong again!" Duan Xiaolou smiled and pointed at Cheng Dieyi.

Cheng Dieyi was in a daze, and the light in his eyes became much brighter, as if he was awakening from a big dream.

"I am a man, not a girl." Xiaodouzi muttered and read it again, then suddenly turned around and said with a smile: "Come on, let's do it again!"

"Your Majesty! Give me the sword quickly!"

Duan Xiaolou flicked his sleeves, took a bow, turned his head to block Xiaodouzi, and said, "Concubine, no, you can't seek such a short-sightedness!"

"Your Majesty, give me the sword quickly!"

"Don't!"

The two walked and sang on the stage. The spotlight stretched their shadows so long that their faces could not be seen clearly even with their backs to the light.

Xiaodouzi pulled Duan Xiaolou a few steps forward and sang: "Your Majesty! The Han soldiers are coming in!"

"Where?!" Duan Xiaolou patrolled with his sword.

Xiaodouzi stood behind and looked at his back, with neither happiness nor sadness on his face, just watching quietly.

Finally, a smile slowly appeared on the face painted with makeup, and he stepped forward and pulled out the shining silver sword from behind his senior brother.

clang

The sword fell to the ground, Duan Xiaolou turned around and shouted: "Die Yi!"

"Little Bean"

In the dark theater, there was only this long call left in the end

Farewell My Concubine has finished filming, and the whole theater is extremely quiet. Everyone is looking at Zhang Guorong and Zhang Fengyi on the stage.

The lights in the theater were not turned on, and no one made a sound. They were all immersed in this last moment.

Chen Shiping sat behind the monitor and let out a long sigh of relief. He seemed to have lost all his strength and collapsed on the horse without speaking for a long time.

After an unknown amount of time, applause slowly broke out in the theater.

Pa. Pa. Pa.

Finally, they gathered together into thunderous applause, and the lights in the theater suddenly turned on.

Zhang Guorong sat up from the ground and sat there sadly for a long time, unable to recover. Zhang Fengyi walked up to him and stretched out his hand and said: "Get up, the filming is over, it's over."

Zhang Guorong reached out and grabbed Zhang Fengyi's hand and stood up from the ground. Before he could speak, he was hugged and lifted up by the people running over.

"It's done!"

"Thank you brother for your hard work!"

Chen Shiping sat behind the monitor and touched his pocket and found that there was no cigarette left. The assistant next to him immediately handed over one.

Chen Shiping took the cigarette and smelled it under his nose. He smiled relievedly and put the cigarette on his ear. He stood up and shouted to everyone: "Mr. Xu is treating us tonight! Let's have a good time!"

Xu Feng, who was still wiping tears, raised his head and looked at Chen Shiping. When he saw him winking at her, he burst out laughing. He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and stood up and shouted: "That's right! I'm treating you today! You can go anywhere." !”

The story of Farewell My Concubine is over, but how many Cheng Dieyi are still living in dreams in this world.

Although movies are stories, stories will always exist.

The filming of the movie took a long time, but Chen Shiping always had some regrets. The filming process passed by so unconsciously, and there were many things that he didn't have time to talk about.

Chen Shiping, who was very drunk at night, came home and washed his face and sobered up.

Tao Huimin handed over a hot towel from behind. Chen Shiping grabbed it and put it on his face and said in a low voice: "How was the premiere of Wives?"

Tao Huimin said with a smile: "It's very good. There are many audiences here, and the audience's evaluation is very high."

Chen Shiping pulled off the towel on his face and said apologetically: "Thank you for your hard work. I was supposed to go to the premiere, but Farewell My Concubine can't stop and I can't stop being angry."

"It's okay." Tao Huimin said jokingly: "The audience doesn't want to look at you anyway."

Chen Shiping burst into laughter. This was true. Anyone in the audience who wanted to watch him was only there for a few actresses.

Needless to say, His Majesty the King, there are many audiences who like her. In the mid-to-late 1980s, wasn't it about Beizhu Linnan Gong Xue?

After arriving in the 1990s, Tao Huimin's Red Mansion and Little Baicai were also known as the new generation of screen goddesses and had many fans.

Chen Shiping has put the two generations of goddesses together. If Liu Xiaoqing, a rich woman, didn't have time, she could have added a lot to the cast.

The box office of Wives in the Mainland will not be too low. It just won the grand prize, and with Zhu Lin and Tao Huimin joining the cast, both fame and reputation are guaranteed.

Even if it is a literary film, the final box office will not be too low, at least 20 to 30 million.

Otherwise, how can it be worthy of such a big market? It just so happens that this box office will be used to shock the people of Hong Kong.

Let them see that there is a market for artistic films in the Mainland! This is a market that embraces all rivers. Come and kneel down and lick me quickly, otherwise it will be too late!

"Will you come with me to Xiangjiang this time?"

Chen Shiping asked, holding Tao Huimin on the bed in the bedroom.

Tao Huimin hesitated and said, "I went and delayed your affairs. The wedding has not been prepared yet, otherwise it will be too late."

"Okay." Chen Shiping rubbed his chin against Tao Huimin, hugged her and said, "Will you domestically abuse me after you get married? You know, I have been alone since I was a child. If you treat me badly,"

"Huh??" Tao Huimin was stunned. He pinched Chen Shiping hard and said, "I'm pretty good at your domestic violence. You know how to torment me every day!"

"Then do you want to give it a try?"

"No, I just did it once."

"Let's do it again, you know, I have been since I was a child"

"Stop it, come here, I'm on top this time!"

It doesn’t matter who’s up or down, as long as you’re happy.

The next day, Chen Shiping rarely slept in, but he was woken up by a phone call around nine o'clock. "Director! Come out for breakfast!"

Chen Shiping vaguely heard the voice on the other end of the phone and couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?"

"Xiao Wang, factory director, I am Wang Xiaoshuai!"

"Wang Xiaoshuai? I still have Marshal Chen!"

Chen Shiping hung up the phone in a daze, covered himself with a quilt and went back to sleep.

In the phone booth at the entrance of Nortel, Wang Xiaoshuai sniffed and hung up the phone melancholy. He was almost out of money to eat, and it seemed that he could only find Lou Ye, a wealthy businessman, to help him.

When Wang Xiaoshuai turned around and was about to leave, the phone in the phone booth rang again, and he quickly turned back to answer the phone.

"Xiao Shuai, I just woke up. Where are you? I'm going to find you. Call Lou Ye and the others."

After Chen Shiping finished speaking, he hung up the phone, got up, washed his face, and went out to find Wang Xiaoshuai and the others.

In a restaurant in Taipingzhuang, after Chen Shiping took the menu and ordered several dishes, he looked at Wang Xiaoshuai and others sitting opposite and said, "Do you all have passes? Follow me to Xiangjiang in two days."

Several people were happy at first, and then said dejectedly: "No."

Chen Shiping hummed and took out his phone to call Mei Juan, and she came over after a while.

"Director, why did you think of inviting me to dinner?" Mei Juan walked into the restaurant with a smile, looked at the people sitting next to Chen Shiping, smiled and nodded in greeting.

Chen Shiping said with a smile: "If you have something to do, then you have to take care of the food."

"What's the matter?" Mei Juan asked curiously.

Chen Shiping pointed to a few of them and said: "Add them to the list of people going to Xiangjiang this time. Help them get passes."

Mei Juan was stunned at first. This time she went to Xiangjiang for a film exchange between the three places across the Taiwan Strait, and the people who went there were all from major film studios.

Except for Lu Xuechang, Wang Xiaoshuai and the others were not from the film studio, so according to regulations they were not eligible.

Chen Shiping naturally knew, otherwise he wouldn't have called Mei Juan outside to talk about it.

After thinking for a moment, Mei Juan looked at Wang Xiaoshuai and the others and said, "Then you go back and give me your materials."

"Okay! I'll give it to you later." Several people said happily.

Chen Shiping poured a cup of tea for Mei Juan and said, "Please come back and report the cost to me alone."

After saying this, Chen Shiping looked at Wang Xiaoshuai and the others and said, "Do you know what we want you to go to Xiangjiang this time?"

Wang Xiaoshuai and others shook their heads and were a little confused. Are they simply going to see the world? It shouldn't be that big of a deal, it's a lot of money to go back and forth.

Chen Shiping coughed lightly and said: "This exchange meeting is just an introduction. A directors' association will be established later. You will all join when the time comes. Then I will give you funds to make films, but there is one requirement."

Wang Xiaoshuai and others were stunned. Is there such a good thing?

Lou Ye thought for a moment and asked, "Director, what are the requirements?"

Chen Shiping said calmly: "Swear!"

Several people looked at each other and never expected this request, but why do you need to find someone to scold someone?

Mei Juan couldn't help but laugh out loud. She knew more about this matter. If a directors' association was set up and asked Director Xiangjiang to join, those people would definitely make a fuss.

Not only people in Xiangjiang will make trouble, but these directors from the mainland will probably also make trouble. As long as interests are involved, there will definitely be competition.

In such a formal occasion, it was difficult for Chen Shiping to be too strong. Someone had to speak out for him.

Chen Shiping didn't explain too much to them, and said directly: "You guys can eat, I have something else to do, Mei Juan, you can talk to them and arrange things to go to Xiangjiang."

Mei Juan nodded and said immediately: "Don't worry, director, I will ensure that the message is conveyed in place!"

After Chen Shiping left, Mei Juan watched a few grown men staring at her, then slowly picked up the food and said, "Look at what I'm doing, eat! Eat until you're full."

Six generations: "."

Shenzhen two days later.

Among the people who went to Xiangjiang this time, he had the highest position, and he was the one who took the lead in organizing this exchange meeting. Naturally, he was the one to lead the team.

It is said that he is leading the team, but in fact it is a service role.

Big bosses like Xie Tieli and Xie Jin are here, and Chen Shiping can only be regarded as a junior.

Everyone calls him "teacher" when he sees him, but there's nothing he can do about it. Most of these people are older than him.

After crossing the border and arriving in Xiangjiang, the car sent by Yindu was already waiting.

Silver Capital also attaches great importance to having so many mainland filmmakers come to Hong Kong at one time. It has been a long time since so many mainland filmmakers have come to Hong Kong.

Director Liao is quite excited, feeling that the glory of left-wing films will soon be restored in Hong Kong!

Both the mainland and Hong Kong attach great importance to this film and culture exchange, and even the filmmakers from the Bay Area attach great importance to it.

Among the three places on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, the Mainland is undoubtedly the best in terms of film art, but when it comes to commercial films, Xiangjiang is the best. When it comes to the film market, Wanwan is still the leader.

Each has its own strengths, but now that the mainland market has recovered, everyone knows who will be the strongest in the future.

No matter from an artistic or commercial perspective, no one will ignore the mainland.

To engage in art, you have to come to the mainland to study, and to engage in business, you have to rely on the mainland to make money.

In the bus, Director Liao was chatting with Xie Tieli and several senior executives. Director Liao went to the mainland for meetings every year and was very familiar with these senior executives.

Chen Shiping was sitting with Zhang Yimo at this time. There were not many directors from Beijing Film Studio this time, only five in total.

In addition to Chen Shiping, Zhang Yimo, and Xie Tieli, there are also directors Li Wenhua and Li Shaohong, including three generations of old, middle, and young people.

As for Wang Xiaoshuai and the others, they are not considered directors yet. They can only be prepared to watch the excitement. This time they came here in the name of logistics staff.

Chen Shiping didn't know many people from other film studios, but he still knew Xie Jin and Xie Fei, both of whom were future vice presidents.

In addition, many people came from Xiying Studio, including He Ping, Wu Ziniu, Zhou Xiaowen, Huang Jianxin, and Teng Wenji.

There are also many people from Shanghai Film Studio and Changying Film Studio, but other than that, there are very few people from other film studios.

Many film studios have not produced any good movies in recent years, and there are very few outstanding talents.

There is no way, this thing is the same as economic development. Only good film studios will attract more outstanding talents.

Courageous leadership leads to better teams.

Just like Wu Tianming from West Film Studio, and Chen Shiping from Beijing Film Studio!

The Film Culture Exchange Conference is held at the Xiangjiang Cultural Center, and the venue has been decorated.

After getting off the bus, Chen Shiping looked at the machete-like building in front of him, feeling as if he had conquered it when he saw it.

At this time, in a tea party hall on the fourth floor of the administrative building of the Cultural Center, dozens of directors from the Hong Kong Directors Club were standing there looking at Chen Shiping and the others.

President Wu Siyuan turned to look at them and said, "Let's go down and greet these mainland colleagues."

At this time, outside the cultural center, Chen Shiping turned to look at the directors who were still looking around in admiration, and said loudly: "Everyone, let's go and meet the directors in Xiangjiang!"

The directors from the Mainland looked at Chen Shiping and felt that he was very imposing at this time, not at all like he was a teacher before.

It's not his skill to be a bully at home, but Chen Shiping's style is to be domineering outside! I hope these people don’t hold back!
