Huayu: Director started with art films

Chapter 68 [Jiang Wen and Liu Xiaoqing, the jealous little puppy] Please read
Time came on the 31th.

With the New Year's Day approaching.

The year 1991 will also pass quietly.

The second year after Li Yishu's rebirth is about to begin.

After watching the New Year’s Eve Gala, Li Yishu was still feeling emotional and was thinking about whether she should write a diary to commemorate it.

Writing: On the evening of December 1991, 12…

At this time, Yu Feihong walked out of the remodeled shower room. As the mist dissipated, her little face looked flushed.

After just a quick glance back, Li Yishu threw the pen onto the table.

Jiang Wen is right. No serious person would write a diary.

The winter in Beijing is very cold, especially in January, when it is even colder.

During the New Year's Day holiday, it was too cold outside, so Li Yishu, who had originally wanted to go shopping in Wangfujing, simply did not even go out and concentrated on dealing with the greedy Yu Feihong.

this day.

Yanjing Peking Opera Theater.

In the training ground backstage, Li Yishu took a sip of strong tea and chatted with Zhao Fei beside her about the crew's shooting plan.

As the shooting day was getting closer, Zhao Fei, as the director of photography, naturally had to understand the shooting plan in detail so that he could make work arrangements for the photography crew.

"Farewell My Concubine" is considered a large crew, with not only film companies from Hong Kong and Taiwan but also Beijing Film Studio participating in the investment. Except for the director of photography who was personally selected by Li Yishu, the rest of the crew were all recommended and arranged by the Beijing Film Studio.

Li Yishu also met with them during these days when she came back.

Regardless of whether people are convinced by the young director Lee Ye-su or not, at least on the surface everyone seems to respect her.

What Li Yishu didn't expect was that among the assistant directors arranged by Beijing Film Studio was Li Shaohong.

Li Yishu must know this female director. He has paid attention to her early works "Bao's Father and Son" and the later highly rated "The Story of the Palace of Eternal Life".

Although I didn't have much contact with it before my rebirth, I definitely have the ability, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to shoot so many film and television works.

In addition, since she was the only female among the assistant directors and was relatively meticulous, she was directly arranged to the position of executive director.

After listening to Li Yishu's desired scene and visuals, Zhao Fei nodded slightly and said, "Director Li, I roughly understand the feeling you want. I'll adjust it later and shoot a scene for you to see."

"Okay, then I'll trouble Coach Zhao."

"Of course I do. This is my job. I am grateful to Director Li for his recommendation."

"Coach Zhao, you are too polite. It's mainly because of your ability and level. You are one of the best in the country."

After exchanging some polite greetings, Zhao Fei left first. He had to go to the Beijing Film Studio to debug the equipment, and also find an alley to shoot the light and shadow texture that Li Yishu wanted, and communicate with his colleagues at the Beijing Film Studio.

Although he is from the Xi'an Film Studio, he has collaborated with the Beijing Film Studio on many films. The "Eunuch Li Lianying" released this year was photographed by him personally.

After everyone left, Li Yishu looked at Zhang Guorong who was still practicing catwalk not far away, and was just about to go up to him to chat.

Just then, a burly voice came from behind.

"Director Li!"

Li Yishu looked back.

Jiang Wen!

Looking at his side again, it was Liu Xiaoqing.

The two men came over, and Jiang Wen clasped his hands together and said, "Director Li, hearing about your reputation is worse than meeting you in person. I have heard of you for a long time."

Seeing this, Li Yishu was stunned at first, then smiled and clasped his fists: "Mr. Jiang, nice to meet you."

“Haha——” Jiang Wen seemed to have discovered something interesting, and quickly said to Liu Xiaoqing beside him: “Did you see it? I knew Director Li must be no ordinary person!”

"Nonsense, Director Li is definitely not an ordinary person. If he were an ordinary person, would he be able to win a foreign award at this age?"

Liu Xiaoqing rolled his eyes at Jiang Wen, but the doting look on his face was evident.

Perhaps seeing Li Yishu's confusion, Liu Xiaoqing apologized, "I'm sorry, Director Li. Jiang Wen and I were talking to the people from the Peking Opera House about investment. When I learned that you were here, I came over without permission. Sorry for disturbing you."

"It's okay, Miss Liu. I've heard a lot about you two. The play 'Furong Town' you performed is a classic. I still remember it vividly."

Li Yishu said this while looking at the two of them with interest.

During the filming of "The Eunuch Li Lianying", it was revealed that Liu Xiaoqing's husband went to catch someone cheating, which caused a lot of uproar.

Afterwards, everyone thought that Liu Xiaoqing would lose contact with Jiang Wen, but unexpectedly, half a month later, news came out that Liu Xiaoqing had divorced her second husband.

Sometimes Li Yishu is hard to understand.

Liu Xiaoqing and Jiang Wen hooked up as early as 86 when they were filming "Furong Town".

At that time, they were both unmarried, so there was nothing wrong with them dating.

But Liu Xiaoqing got married two years later and was still entangled with Jiang Wen, which led to the scandal last year.

This kind of behavior is definitely not something that ordinary people can do.

"Director Li, you are overpraising me."

Liu Xiaoqing smiled. "Furong Town" is considered her classic work. It is also thanks to this movie that she became famous throughout the country.

The current Liu Xiaoqing did not have the plastic surgery face she had later. From a normal aesthetic point of view, she was still a standard oval-faced beauty with regular features. Who would have thought that she would be so disfigured later.

After some pleasantries, Liu Xiaoqing stated his purpose: "I came here with Jiang Wen this time, firstly to meet Director Li, and secondly to ask if the role of Cheng Dieyi in Farewell My Concubine has been decided?"

Ok?
Li Yishu glanced at Jiang Wen and saw that he was holding his head high, with yellowish skin and no beard. He looked a bit like Xia Yu who had gained two sizes of weight as an adult.

No wonder Xia Yu was chosen to play the role later, he looks quite like Jiang Wen when he was young.

"Director Li!"

Zhang Guorong behind him had no intention of rehearsing and strode over. He had been in Hong Kong for so many years, how could he not understand that the role might not be yours until the last moment.

Even if the film has already been shot, if someone really wants to replace you, the crew can just scrap it and reshoot it.

"Zhang Guorong!"

The moment he saw Zhang Guorong, Liu Xiaoqing's eyes lit up and he quickly extended his hand enthusiastically: "Hello Mr. Zhang Guorong, I am Liu Xiaoqing, nice to meet you."

Zhang Guorong also recognized her and shook hands with her with a smile: "Hello, Ms. Liu, I have seen your performance in "The Demon Queen", it was filmed very well."

"Thank you. I think that movie is very good."

Liu Xiaoqing looked at Zhang Guorong with a burning gaze. Li Yishu could feel it, and Jiang Wen beside him could not fail to feel it. His nostrils widened, his eyes were stern, and he stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, Mr. Zhang, I'm Jiang Wen."

"Hello Mr. Jiang, your..."

Zhang Guorong suddenly frowned, because he felt his palm was being squeezed very tightly. He endured the pain and said, "I've seen your Red Sorghum, and your performance as Yu Zhan'ao was really wonderful."

Jiang Wen smiled wryly: "No, no, Mr. Zhang's singing is not bad either."

"Okay Mr. Jiang, now that we all know each other, why don't we sit down and chat?"

Li Yishu looked at the handshake between the two and Zhang Guorong's visibly flushed face. She really didn't realize that Jiang Wen was so jealous, just like the little puppy who was jealous of the rich woman later.

But not everyone likes him.

Now we understand why Lao Jiang started growing a beard after filming "A Brighter Summer Day". Maybe he doesn't want to be a gigolo anymore?
