1979 Golden Age

Chapter 477: Moving Towards Shanghai

Late at night.

The lights were on in the backyard, a few trees were rustling softly in the cool breeze, and an editor's cat slipped behind,

Lying in the corner and shouting anxiously.

Gong Xue had already cleaned the house, washed herself and lay on the bed. Li Guyi's song was playing on the recorder. This feeling was wonderful. This was the first time she stayed alone in Lechunfang.

The bed seemed suddenly to be very large.

"Again, I am a mother raising a child, and yet I am abandoned by a man! Do I have the face of a man who abandoned me???"

"It's all my fault!"

Gong Xue finished reading the script of "Under the Bridge" and felt a little dissatisfied.

This story is not complicated: a female educated youth returned to the city and started a self-employed tailor business. She met a young man who repaired cars and was also self-employed. The two had a good impression of each other, but the heroine had a problem. She was deceived by a man when she jumped in line and gave birth to a child. As a result, the man went abroad to marry his cousin.

She had to leave the child at her uncle's house in the countryside and visit her regularly.

Once her child was sick, she was heartbroken and decided to take the child back to the city. She was met with a lot of rumors, but in the end they got together, and the hero's mother also accepted her.

"Under the Bridge" historically helped her reach the pinnacle of her career after winning the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Double Film.

But from her current point of view, it is indeed full of "old-style films with an old gay atmosphere". This is not to say that this film is not good, but that her standard has improved and it feels very old and cannot keep up with international developments.

She has played a mother twice in "Mom Love Me Again" and "Beautiful Life". She is not even married yet, so she has played a mother...

"It's all my fault!"

She mumbled again.

In the blink of an eye, the next day, Wang Lingu came again.

He was actually more worried.

If Shanghai Film Studio wants to have a romantic relationship with Chen Qi and uses Gong Xue as a breakthrough point, it has to get a movie. The Shanghai Film Studio was looking over and over again, but they really couldn't find anyone who could keep up with Chen Qi's pace, so "Under the Bridge" focused on highlighting the heroine, so they gave it to Gong Xue.

And this role suits her very well.

"Director Wang, please take a seat!"

"Okay, no need to bother——"

Wang Lingu took the tea from Gong Xue and asked immediately: "Have you read the script? How is it?"

"Woolen cloth!"

She couldn't say that she didn't like the script, so she had to say: "This script is very good, but unfortunately I have to go to the United States with a group in the summer and don't have time to star in it."

"The director of "Under the Bridge" is Bai Chen, the male lead is Guo Kaimin, and the configurations are all top-notch in our factory.

It will definitely turn out to be a masterpiece, please consider it again! "Wang Lingu said hurriedly.

"I know it will be a good work, but objective conditions do not allow it. I will be back at the end of July. The heroine is self-employed. If I want to act, I have to spend time experiencing life and figuring out the role. When can filming start?

When the filming is completed, it is estimated that it will not be until the end of the year or even next year, which will definitely delay the filming plan of Shanghai Film Studio. "

"This is simple, we can adjust it!"

"this----"

Gong Xue tasted the product and suddenly came back to her senses and said, "Then let me think about it, please?"

"Of course, we are not in a hurry."

After Wang Lingu finished speaking, he simply stopped mentioning this and turned the topic to Shanghai. He said that Gong Xue was from Shanghai and that he had nothing to do to go back to his hometown to see bala bala. After sitting for a while, he stood up and left.

After he left, Gong Xue returned to the backyard, took out a pen and paper and wrote a letter to Chen Qi.

In addition to explaining the matter, he also added some of his own opinions: "I personally think that "Under the Bridge" should be filmed or not, but I heard that the film industry needs to deepen reforms, and everyone is talking about it at Beijing Film Studio. We are communicating with colleagues in Beijing. Closely, Shanghai Film Studio has been rooted in Shanghai for decades, and its deep roots cannot be underestimated. I hope you will consider this proactive show of goodwill.

If you need me, I will reply and accept this film.

Miss you, Snow. "

The letter was sent to Hong Kong on April 1st.

Nowadays, people don’t celebrate April Fool’s Day very much. It seems that it was popular for a few years in the late 1990s. After Leslie Cheung committed suicide, April Fool’s Day became a holiday of mourning. In the year when Chen Qi came here, almost no one celebrated April Fools' Day.

In the office, Chen Qi stood at the window and looked at the scenery.

People were running around downstairs, going in and out of the studio, and you could see Andy Lau and Zhong Chuhong from time to time.

Today's studios are much more lively than before.

Gong Xue said that Shanghai Film Studio took the initiative to show goodwill, and he agreed. He was the only commercial film company in mainland China. If all were converted into U.S. dollars, the annual revenue would exceed 10 million U.S. dollars, and no matter how hard it was, everyone would have to show goodwill.

Do you want to respond?

Of course!

The Shanghai Film Studio's status is on par with that of the Beijing Film Studio. It's so awesome that it's always a good idea to make friends.

And he thought more. He could not show his talents without the support of his leaders. Wang Yang, Ding Qiao, and Zhu Muzhi were all his supporters, but speaking of it, the highest-ranking backer was Liao Gong.

Duke Liao died immediately.

If Chen Qi wants to continue to develop, he needs to find someone.

“It’s okay to invest in Shanghai Film Studio!”

“As for “Under the Bridge”—·

Chen Qi curled his lips. He and Gong Xue had the same attitude. They could take pictures or not, but since they wanted to respond to others, let's take pictures. The quality of "Under the Bridge" is pretty good in China, it can win awards, and it was also shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival.

Anyway, the male protagonist is not Huang Ama anymore. Huang Ama is happily living on the road of being a third-level actor. I will get him to make a few more Hong Kong films in the future. Don’t miss the classic role of Cao Xiong, the second man in the Golden Ring.

"Dong dong dong!"

"Mr. Chen, the gift is ready! Please take a look!"

At this time, a staff member came in with a big box. Chen Qi checked it and said, "Okay, send it over!"

"Uncle Xun, there's a package for you!"

"Is there another package for me? I've become the recipient!"

From GG Company, Huang Lu received another big package as expected.

Since Chen Qi invited him to sing last year, he has been giving him gifts every now and then, all of which are local specialties from the mainland, but the two have never had the chance to meet. Huang Lu took the trouble and did the same this time, taking a look at the mess.

Inside were not souvenirs, but several boxes of video tapes with labels that read: "83 Spring Festival Gala."

In addition, there is an invitation inviting him to attend the media and film critics preview screening of "Life is Beautiful" in a few days.

The most special thing is the extra thick newspaper, I don’t know what it is.

""Life is Beautiful"?"

Huang Lu was very interested in this film and immediately decided to participate. Then she took the video tape and found a video recorder in the company, muttering: "What? The Spring Festival Gala, you come to bother me every day!"

"Uncle Lu, what do you want to see?" the employee was curious.

"Come and enjoy the revolutionary propaganda videos from Mainland China!"

Huang Lu greeted everyone and sat down on the sofa carelessly. The employees were also interested and talked about it: "I remember seeing it when I was a child, a red booklet!"

"Hey, are there any images of that person?"

"No, the Hong Kong government wants to investigate. Wouldn't it be against the law if we read it?"

"So Hong Kong doesn't seem to be very free!"

"Stop talking nonsense and be quiet!"

After hearing this, Huang Lu felt inexplicably angry and scolded her.

As the TV came on, the low-quality picture of the video tape era appeared before our eyes. A big clock with a countdown came up. Several people shouted: "Oh, come on, give me a clock, bad luck!"

"Do you know the rules in Mainland China?"

Followed by an animated short film and a lively opening dance, the four hosts appeared: "We would like to say a happy Spring Festival to the people of all ethnic groups in the country, compatriots in Hong Kong and Macao, compatriots in Taiwan, overseas Chinese, and all Chinese people around the world... "
