1979 Golden Age

In the next few days, everyone watched performances from Chinese operas and various drama troupes.

Some people in the creative team of "Lushan Love" thought Fang Shu was very good. Wang Haowei also thought he could give it a try first, so he paired Fang Shu and Zhou Lijing and asked them to come to Beijing Film Studio every day. Talk about the play, research, and further test the play.

Zhang Tielin, Chen Baoguo and others have been wiped out.

Chen Chong made a special trip from Shanghai. She had already made a name for herself with "Little Flower". She was admitted to the Shanghai International Studies University last year, majoring in English and American literature. Then she went to the United States in 1981 and married a Hollywood body coach.

Originally, everyone had high expectations for her, but after auditioning for the role, they found that the effect was not as expected. She was young, had baby fat on her face, and did not have the feeling of a heroine, so she was dismissed.

Early this morning.

Chen Qi came to the conference room early.

He usually comes first, sweeping the floor, wiping the table, etc., and sometimes preparing tea. In terms of position, he is a screenwriter, and in terms of age, he is the youngest, which creates a very contradictory situation.

But he didn't care, and his favorability level skyrocketed.

When he came today, he unexpectedly found someone sitting in the room, wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, lowering his head and writing something.

"Ahem, hello, comrade!"

"Oh hello hello!"

As soon as the other person raised his head, he quickly stood up, revealing a handsome face with red lips and white teeth, especially his eyes, which were shining brightly. He also had a good figure, not short, and fair and tender skin.

ha!

Chen Qi was overjoyed and shook hands when he went up. "Oh, Prime Minister, when will you take us on the Northern Expedition?"

My excavator is ready!

This is none other than Yushu Linfeng, the number one butter boy, Tang Guoqiang!

"Hello, my name is Chen Qi, the screenwriter of "Lushan Love"."

"I've admired him for a long time. I've heard for a long time that there's a young talent coming from the Beijing Film Studio. Today I saw him and he's well-deserved!"

Tang Guoqiang's voice was loud and magnetic, very pleasant to hear. He warmly greeted Chen Qi to sit down and said with a smile: "I have nothing to do, so I wanted to come early, but it turned out to be too early. Everyone hasn't arrived yet."

"It's almost time. We're all having breakfast now. Are you coming from Bayi Factory?"

"Yes, you live in Beijing Film Studio?"

"Well, I've been staying in the guest house."

The two chatted, and Chen Qi kept staring at his face. Oh, his skin is so good!

People in this era generally have rough skin, but he is gifted with it. His skin is white and tender, and he is more beautiful than women.

When filming "Little Flower", it was his birthday and Chen Chong asked him what he wanted. He said: I like to eat cream, please make me a cream cake. Later, when Chen Chong met someone, he would say, "My brother, his skin is tenderer than mine. He just eats butter."

At that time, tough guys like Ken Takakura were highly sought after in the society, and Tang Guoqiang was quite ridiculed. Especially in 1981, when he acted in "The Peacock Princess", he was even more tender, delicate in appearance, fair in complexion, and rarely handsome!

The nickname Butterboy spread.

This caused a lot of trouble for him, and he tried hard to break through the acting career, but with little success. He lived in a niche for many years until Zhuge Wolong in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was born.

Later, he played Teacher and Yongzheng, establishing his status in one fell swoop.

Objectively speaking, his acting skills are good, and he was also a good teacher the first few times he acted. Later, when he acted more, he started to produce on an assembly line. Moreover, he is getting older, and he always plays emperors, generals, and ministers, all of whom seem to have the same style of painting. Subjectively, he does not want to make progress, and his acting skills have greatly declined.

While Tang Guoqiang was chatting, he realized something was wrong and asked, "Comrade Xiao Chen, why do you always see me doing this?"

"I just think your skin is really good. Do you take care of it regularly?"

"Maintenance? I am born with this, right?"

"I'm so powerful because I'm born with it. You see, I'm not good at it. I'm a bit rough. The seasons have changed, and I even have acne..."

"Oh, I'm talking about you little comrade!"

Tang Guoqiang slapped his thigh and said speechlessly: "What does it look like for two big men to discuss skin here?"

"Okay, no more discussion, but your skin is really good..."

For some reason, Chen Qi wanted to be happy when he saw him, and then wanted to tease him. Fortunately, Wang Haowei and others arrived and rescued Tang Guoqiang.

The relationship between Bayi Film Studio and Beijing Film Studio is very good. Bayi Film Studio lacks directors, and Beijing Film Studio has rich directors. They often go to help Bayi Film Studio to film movies, and actors are also exchanged. Today is not as serious as before, more relaxed.

Everyone sat casually, and Tang Guoqiang said: "Director Wang, thank you in advance for coming to me. I read the script of "Romance in Lushan Mountain" and I have a question. I am 27 years old this year. Am I a little older?"

"But you look young!"

Wang Haowei laughed and said: "We have considered this issue a long time ago. First look at the image, as long as it feels right. Besides, there is a five-year gap between the male and female protagonists, and they will naturally mature after five years."

"Oh, then thanks to your respect, I can try it first?"

"Okay, okay, let's communicate more first and get a feel for it, but I'll leave it here, I don't guarantee that I will definitely use you."

"Of course, I'm not a young boy just starting out."

After chatting for a while, Tang Guoqiang left first. Before leaving, he glanced at Chen Qi. The other party left a deep impression on him. They started talking about skin. Alas, young people nowadays...

After he left, the meeting continued.

Wang Haowei said: "Fang Shu and Zhou Lijing have decided on a group. Needless to say, Xiao Tang's image and quality can definitely be considered. We still need an actress to match him. So there are two groups of alternatives. Let's see which one suitable."

"Pan Hong?"

"Jiang Lili?"

"Zhang Weixin (Li Xiaolu's mother, dancer)?"

Candidates were put forward one after another, but either they were not available or their units would not let them go.

In the end, there was still no result.

…………

After a while.

Chen Qi returned to the guest house and closed the door.

After a pause, he pulled out his chair and sat down, spreading out the manuscript paper. He also felt that the progress was slow. Speaking of which, it was still his fault. "Romance in Lushan" was moved from Shanghai Film Studio to Beijing Film Studio, and many things changed.

"There's no other way, I'll just cast the cast through metaphysics!"

He finally couldn't help it.

Think about it, who are the actresses of this era?

He Qing, only 15 years old, is in the Zhejiang Kun Opera Troupe. Chen Hong is even younger, only 11 years old. She must be a literary and art committee member in an elementary school. Tao Huimin, 13 years old, must have just joined the Yue Opera Troupe...

Although these three are small, they can be used in the future.

Chen Qi made a note in his notebook.

In addition, He Saifei, Ruping, Dong Zhizhi, Zhou Jie, and Lin Fangbing are all too young. "Lushan Love" has a five-year time span, from early twenties to late twenties, and does not require young actors.

"Where is Li Jianqun?"

Chen Qi suddenly thought of this name. She should be studying in the Department of Dance and Art of Shanghai Theater Academy, and she had no acting experience.

But he also made a note of it for future use.

"Where is Zhu Lin? What health research institute does she work at? Is she acting in "Romance on Lushan Mountain" as a mother in the world?"

And when he thought of Zhu Lin, he naturally thought of another name. These two people were talked about by new era netizens on the Internet in later generations. He pondered for a moment and drew a circle in his notebook.

"Just her!"
