Chapter 261 Persuasion
"You look so young!"
"Where? I'm almost fifty."
"No, no, you must be in your forties at most. If it wasn't rude, I would have called you eldest sister!"
Li Lianjie was sitting on the small bench, watching his mother being coaxed back and forth. He was extremely happy. When he took the time, he had to direct himself: "Go and wash some fruits. Your leader is here and he didn't even say a word!"
"No, no, no, I'll leave after a while. Xiao Li is a good kid, and he's doing very well in the company. I'll come over to see you before New Year's Day, and I'll also pay you a visit!"
"That's so polite. I have to thank you for taking such good care of him."
After chatting for a while, Chen Qi said to Li Lien: ""Shaolin Temple" is scheduled for the Spring Festival in Hong Kong. I invite you guys to go over and promote it. This film has nothing to do with me, so I won't go. You and Ji Chunhua will go. .
You have a lot of experience, I have nothing to worry about, just remember to follow the rules. "
"I know, I've been out many times."
"One more thing today. You have outstanding results in "Tai Chi" and your acting skills in "Tai Chi 2" have also improved. I'm watching..."
Chen Qi took out the brown paper bag in front of his mother: "It's the end of the year, let this be considered a bonus!"
"Hey, how did this happen? I would like to trouble you to go there in person, just say it!"
His mother stood up immediately, feeling a little flattered. She scolded Li Lianjie again and said, "Why don't you thank me quickly? Look at how good this leader is and how much he takes care of you!"
"Thank you, Brother Qi!"
Li Lianjie took the paper bag, grinned from ear to ear, and said to himself: I just said Brother Qi won't treat me badly, right? It's really interesting.
Chen Qi also shook his head secretly and stayed for a while. Just as he was about to say goodbye, a voice suddenly came from outside. The door curtain opened and Huang Qiuyan came in: "Xiao Li, Auntie, you...ah! Brother Chen, why are you here?" ?”
"Why can't I be here? Why are you here?"
"Qiuyan, it's cold outside, look at your face..."
His mother was very kind to Huang Qiuyan. She held her hand and explained: "This child has a good heart. He often comes over to help me tidy up and clean... Qiuyan, you haven't eaten yet. You will eat here later... Comrade Chen, will you Don’t leave either, I’ll cook right now!”
"No, I have something else to do, so don't bother me!"
Chen Qizhen stood up and said goodbye, beckoning: "Xiao Huang, come out with me."
Huang Qiuyan followed him out inexplicably and out of the courtyard. Chen Qi pushed the car, the soles of his shoes squeaking on the snow, and asked: "Are you friends with Xiao Li?"
"ah?"
She immediately blushed and shook her head quickly: "What are you talking about? I am his senior sister, we just have a good relationship."
"Then do you like him?"
"..."
"Then does he like you?"
"..."
"This kind of thing needs to be clarified and cannot be confused. You are young and inexperienced. I suggest you two have a good talk. If you are embarrassed to talk, you can tell his mother what you think, or find an intermediary to talk to him. In short Don't be vague."
Chen Qi said this and rode away.
Huang Qiuyan is a good girl. After the two divorced, she lived in the United States. Later, she found a Chinese owner of a restaurant and remarried. She never showed up and said anything for so many years.
She still has contact with Li Lianlian, and she still calls Li Lianlian his mother.
(The picture shows the "Shaolin Boys" crew reunion, with the aged Jet Li and Huang Qiuyan, in 2015)
Chen Qi said a few more words to Huang Qiuyan.
But young people don't like to listen to advice, not to mention it's a relationship matter. If she insists on following Li Lianlian, there's no way she can do that.
…………
Chen Qi left the Mahua Courtyard and went to the Beijing Film Studio.
The crew of "Mom Love Me Again" has returned, and the entire drama is finished and entering the later stages.
He was riding in the factory and met Zhang Jinling. Zhang Jinling waved and said, "Xiao Chen! Are you looking for Xiao Gong?"
"Well, are you busy?"
"I'm fine. You should really go and see Xiao Gong. There's something wrong with her when she comes back from Guangdong. I saw her in the morning, her face was so gloomy, I didn't dare to speak."
"Oh, I'll go over then, see you later!"
Chen Qi scratched his head and rode to the Tongzi Tower. He climbed up and knocked on the door, but there was no response. He took out the spare key and opened it himself. The curtains were drawn in broad daylight, it was not dark in the middle of winter, Gong Xue was lying on the bed covered with a quilt, her eyes open, she clearly saw him coming in, but she didn't say a word.
"..."
Chen Qi observed it and saw a pile of information and a notebook on the coffee table.
He picked up the notebook and flipped through it. He had a clue in his mind. He went over to sit by the bed and touched her face: "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"Um!"
Gong Xue lay down and moved his head, and said gloomily: "It's all your fault for asking me to learn some material. I watched it for a month. I filmed crying scenes during the day and continued to cry while reading the material at night. My tears have all dried up. I am better than Lin." My sister is still miserable."
"You are immersed in it, you are in the drama."
"You don't have the script yet, and I'm involved in it? Then when I film it, I'm going to die? I don't want to film it."
She turned over, facing away from him.
Chen Qi was so happy that he also lay on the bed, hugged her from behind, and coaxed: "But the purpose of making this movie is to let more people know about history.
You regard it as an anti-Japanese film played by those old-timers, just to fight against the little devils, to praise our great victory, and to remember the sacrificed revolutionary martyrs. This is a task assigned to you by the country. You shoulder a heavy responsibility and must complete it well... …”
"..."
After about half a minute, Gong Xue slowly turned around and huddled in his arms: "I feel a little better when I think about it this way. You are right, I regard it as a revolutionary task, and I cannot retreat weakly."
Her mood improved slightly, and the two of them expressed their longing for each other.
She talked about her filming experience, rubbing her eyes and said, "I cried too much, my eyes are damaged, sometimes I feel blurry."
"Have you seen a doctor?"
"I saw a doctor in Guangdong, and he prescribed some eye drops for me and said I should rest."
"That's perfect, you can go home for the Spring Festival and have a good rest, you've been tired enough this year."
Gong Xue calculated the date and said, "New Year's Eve on January 24, so I'll go home on the 16th, and I'll go home just in time for the Little New Year in the south... eh?"
She laughed again and hugged Chen Qi's neck: "My little fool, we still have half a month to be together!"
"Why do you always calculate so accurately?"
"I don't want to be separated from you, sometimes I really want to retire."
"But even if you retire, I have to keep busy, are you going to follow me around?"
"No, it's so embarrassing!"
Gong Xue sighed, this is an unsolvable problem, Chen Qi is right, even if I don't shoot, he will still be busy, so it's better to shoot, at least I have a career.

CCTV.
The first two episodes of "Justice Bao" were played on the small screen.
After watching it, Deputy Director and Director of the TV Drama Center Ruan Ruolin nodded frequently: "You made a good drama. At present, it can be regarded as the first-class level in China."
"Come on, I admit that you are first-class, but I am not so confident if you say you are first-class."
Yang Jie is the same age as her, so she didn't care about what she said. She asked: "When do you think it is better to arrange it to be broadcast?"
"New Year's Eve! One episode a day, just broadcast until the sixth day of the first lunar month."
"Okay, then I'm leaving!"
"Hey, hey, hey, I haven't finished talking yet, you are always so impetuous!"
Ruan Ruolin grabbed her and said: "The station is going to shoot the four great classics. It has been studied for a long time and has recently made some progress. It plans to let you shoot "Journey to the West". Are you willing to do it?"
""Journey to the West"? I don't like things about monsters and ghosts. I want to shoot "Dream of Red Mansions." Yang Jie said.
"The Dream of Red Mansions was given to Wang Fulin!"
"What does he know about the Dream of Red Mansions? Can he tell Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai apart? Give it to me, I will definitely make it well."
"The station has already decided, just tell me whether you want to do it or not, if not I will find someone else!"
"Yes! Why not?"
Yang Jie slapped her thigh in frustration: "It's a classic after all, give it to me, I will start preparing after the New Year, I will find all the beautiful girls in the country to play the goblins!"
