I'm not just a director

As for the dialect drama, Jiang Pei'an felt that it had to be polished.

This direction of development can be said to be a turning point in the next career of Xin'an Folk Art Troupe.

It is not only the support of actors and shooting techniques, but also the changes in the thinking of people like Qi Yuefei.

Accomplishing these is not accomplished overnight, and it will take some time.

Fortunately, it is still 2002, and there is still room for development of folk tunes.

Dialect dramas can be developed gradually, and one or two films can be tried first...

In the evening, Jiang Pei'an invited everyone to dinner, Qi Yuefei and Wang Xingxing.

There were also several well-known artists of folk ditties, who were present one after another.

For example, the actor who was the first to be fooled by Jiang Pei'an to shoot a folk ditty.

Li Shouguo, the cripple, and his old partner Wang Hong.

There is also Wang Hong's husband, Zhao Fusheng, former head of the Zhenbang Opera Troupe.

After several years of training, Zhao Fusheng is gradually developing in the direction of a small folk producer.

There are still some new faces left, these are the actors Qi Yuefei hired from other troupes after Jiang Pei'an left.

A total of more than 30 people held three tables of banquets in the restaurant in the town.

After drinking for three rounds, Jiang Pei'an raised his glass, looked at Li Shouguo and asked:
"Uncle Li, is my aunt in good health?"

"Okay, okay, she's okay."

Li Shouguo seldom drank alcohol, but he definitely wanted to drink the wine Jiang Pei'an offered.

Without Jiang Pei'an, his wife would have died of illness that winter a few years ago.

In the past few years, Li Shouguo has become popular because of folk songs, and sometimes he is invited to go out for commercial performances.

The lame leg has now become his personal mark, and no one dares to look down on him anymore.

Last year, their family moved out of the simple shed they used to live in and built a two-story bungalow.

It can be said that earth-shaking changes have taken place in life.

And all this is due to Jiang Pei'an.

"Baian, I respect you."

Li Shouguo raised his head, and immediately drank two taels of liquor.

"Uncle Li, drink less."

Jiang Pei'an was concerned.

Li Shouguo waved his hands, looked at Jiang Pei'an and said:

"Bian, thank you!"

As he said that, his eyes were a little rosy and he said:
"Those of us have learned to sing since we were young.

Traveling all over the world has suffered a lot, and what I earn is some hard money.

If it wasn't for Pei'an, I don't think we all know where to make a living at this time..."

Most of the people here are members of the Bangju Troupe, and they were quite moved when they heard Li Shouguo's emotional words.

The history of Bangju Troupe is longer than that of Peking Opera.

But it is not the same as Peking Opera, and it gradually becomes lonely, not to mention local operas.

As Li Shouguo said, without Jiang Pei'an's folk songs, these people would probably go out to work.

Those who are in the prime of life are fine, but for those who are quite old and disabled like Li Shouguo, no one may want to work part-time.

For ordinary people, these people have sung for a lifetime, but in the end they become farmers with their faces turned to the loess and their backs to the sky.

It's not that the peasants are bad, it's just that after they grow old, they still cannot escape the fate of worrying about their livelihood.

It's sad to say.

"Although I acted in this folk ditty, there were some rumors at the beginning.

But gossip is nothing compared to being able to survive..."

Li Shouguo's words made Zhao Fusheng blush and couldn't sit still.

When Li Shouguo and Wang Hong were filming folk songs together, Zhao Fusheng thought he was being cuckolded because of the rumors in the village, and even came to stop the filming.

Looking back now, I'm still really stupid.

Among other things, how much economic benefit did Jiang Pei'an's folk tune bring to the whole town?

As Li Shouguo said, he gave everyone present a "way of life".

Thinking about it, Zhao Fusheng picked up his wine glass and said to Jiang Pei'an:

"Pei'an, I respect you, it was my uncle who did those things wrong."

Hearing Zhao Fusheng's words, Wang Hong's expression was also a little shy, obviously thinking of what Zhao Fusheng said "those things" meant.

Others are full of gossip.

"What's the matter?"

"There is a story!"

"Old Zhao, have you offended Pei An?"

Of course Jiang Pei'an knew what Zhao Fusheng meant, but he picked up his wine glass with a smile and said with a smile:
"What happened back then? I forgot about Uncle Zhao, come and drink."

"Hehe, it's nothing, just drink!"

……

Jiang Pei'an stayed at home for a total of three days.

In three days, the threshold of Jiang Pei'an's house was almost leveled.

Not to mention the seven aunts and eight aunts, these are all serious relatives.

Hearing that Jiang Pei'an came back with a girlfriend, they all came to visit.

Others like some neighbors and other people from the town also came to watch.

It was very lively for a while.

According to Jiang Peijian's incomplete statistics, in the three days since his elder brother came back, the melon seeds at home had been eaten at least no less than [-] catties.

There is nothing to entertain in the countryside, and people at home just put melon seeds on a plate for guests to grab.

A group of people crackled and chattered while eating melon seeds.

The little brother spent the past three days sweeping melon seeds with a broom.

On the third day, Jiang Pei'an took Gao Yuanyuan back to Beijing.

Grandma and mother held Gao Yuanyuan's hand and did not let go.

"Yuanyuan, come back and see grandma when you have time."

Grandma said kindly.

This is the girlfriend of the eldest son and grandson. The old man has already regarded Gao Yuanyuan as his grandson's wife.

"Don't worry grandma, I'll be back when I'm free."

Gao Yuanyuan said quietly.

"Yuanyuan, these are the insoles that Auntie made for you, hehe, they are comfortable to wear in your shoes."

"Thank you auntie."

Gao Yuanyuan took the insole and said sweetly.

Jiang Pei'an waited quietly by the side, but felt a little melancholy in his heart.

It seems that both mother and grandma are very satisfied with Gao Yuanyuan, but besides Yuanyuan, he also has a Jingjing.

If I bring Hu Jing home next time...

Jiang Pei'an couldn't help but shuddered. Seeing that it wasn't Gao Yuanyuan, his family wanted to skin him!
"What's wrong with you, do you want to go to the bathroom?"

Seeing Jiang Pei'an shivering, the little brother asked.

Jiang Pei'an patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said:
"If you had two girlfriends, would you bring them home to meet your parents?"

Jiang Peijian was taken aback for a moment, then glanced at the adults not far away.

Seeing that they didn't notice this side, Jiang Peijian asked in a low voice:

"Brother, do you know everything?"

"?"

"No, you kid has a girlfriend? Or two?"

Jiang Pei'an asked in surprise.

"Shh, be quiet..."

Jiang Peijian said with some coyness:

"It's not a girlfriend, it's just...a good friend, just a good friend."

"I said you're a playful kid."

Jiang Pei'an looked at the little brother expressionlessly and said.

Uh... It seems that I don't even have the qualifications to talk about him.

Jiang Peijian said nonchalantly:

"Anyway, I won't marry them. Is there any difference between one girlfriend and two girlfriends?"

Jiang Pei'an was shocked by what the younger brother said.

"Who taught you this? You learned this in school? Bah, scumbag!"

"Brother, can you stop being so old and feudal? Who cares about you before you get married? Anyway, you don't break the law."

The little brother said contemptuously.

"I'm feudal?"

Jiang Pei'an sneered, it seems that the little brother's wings are stiff now.

"Second Uncle, Second Aunt, Jiang Peijian has a girlfriend at school!"

"elder brother!"

"And two more!"

……

The car drove away, but the cries of the little brother still echoed in Jiang Pei'an's ears.

"Pei'an, what about... the red envelope?"

Gao Yuanyuan frowned and asked.

She held two thick red envelopes in her hand, which Jiang Pei'an's grandma and mother forcibly stuffed into Gao Yuanyuan.

Jiang Pei'an glanced at the red envelope, it was quite thick.

The old lady spent a lot of money.

Jiang Pei'an smiled and said:
"Take it, this is our rule here."

"Okay, isn't it a bit much?"

Gao Yuanyuan is not sure.

"Not many, you bought more than these gifts for them, you can rest assured when you hold them."

Jiang Pei'an said with a smile.

"Oh, okay, then can I come to pay New Year's greetings after Chinese New Year?"

Gao Yuanyuan asked.

"Of course I can, but I may not be able to spare time to accompany you back."

Jiang Pei'an nodded.

"You are busy with your work. I can come here by myself. Grandma and aunt treat me very well. I want to come and see them."

Gao Yuanyuan said in a low voice.

"Hehe, it can be seen that they like you very much. After you came, the status of my son and grandson plummeted."

Jiang Pei'an said so, but in his heart he thought it was terrible.

Two days ago, after Hu Jing called and learned that Jiang Pei'an had returned home, she also expressed that she wanted to come to Jiang Pei'an's hometown to celebrate the New Year after the Chinese New Year.

At that time, Jiang Pei'an patted his chest and told her that she could...

This fucking is about to roll over!
"Yes, why do I feel that you don't want me to come here?"

Gao Yuanyuan tilted her head and looked at Jiang Pei'an.

"How is it possible! Don't think about it, take out the red envelope and see how much they gave."

Jiang Pei'an urged calmly...

The two took off from Xiguan Airport to Beijing.

As soon as he landed, Jiang Pei'an received a call from Han Shanping.

"Han Dong, what's the matter for calling me here in such a hurry?"

China Film Group, Han Shanping's office.

"Pei'an, come on, it's a good thing, it's a great thing!"

As soon as Jiang Pei'an entered, Han Shanping greeted him happily.

"Hehe, could it be that the box office of "Source Code" exceeded [-] million?"

Jiang Pei'an sat on the sofa and joked.

"Source Code" has been released for more than half a month, and the current box office is fixed at more than 500 million.

Breaking through [-] million has a great possibility.

However, as time went by, other movies were gradually released, sharing some of the market.

Box office growth for Source Code has been somewhat sluggish.

It is foreseeable that "Source Code" surpasses "Taken" is already a certainty.

But no one can guarantee whether it can break through [-] million.

I can only say that there is a chance.

Hearing Jiang Pei'an's words, Han Shanping said mysteriously:

"If this thing is completed, "Source Code" may really exceed [-] million!"

Jiang Pei'an was also aroused by Han Shanping's words.

"What's the matter?"

Han Shanping smiled and said nothing, pointing to the TV.

Jiang Pei'an looked towards the TV and saw two anchors broadcasting the news.

"Good evening, audience friends."

"good evening."

"Welcome to today's "News Network"..."

News Feeds?

Jiang Pei'an was at a loss, and then he suddenly thought of a certain possibility...

"Han Dong, you mean..."

"Hahaha that's right, you should prepare for an interview recently, you are going to be on CCTV's "News Network"!"

"News Network" can be said to be known to everyone in China.

It is known as "China's vane", and it is also the TV news column with the highest ratings and the greatest influence in China.

Its content covers all aspects such as politics, economy, science and technology, society, military, diplomacy, culture, and sports.

Make an assumption:
If there is a global nuclear war, all broadcast signals disappear.

In the information desert, if the country must announce some important things through the radio in order to restore order, which program must be restored?

For Huaxia, the answer is self-evident:

News Feeds.

In China, as long as you can find a signal.

Regardless of TV or radio, you will hear the familiar opening sound at seven o'clock in the evening...

Jiang Pei'an was in a daze and said in disbelief:
"You want to interview me?"

Han Shanping smiled and said:
"CCTV's point of view is to start with the special effects technology in "Source Code", and then ask you some questions about special effects."

Hearing this, Jiang Pei'an nodded.

That's right.

The development of Huaxia film and television special effects can be traced back to the 80s.

At that time, the special effects technology of Huaxia movies was relatively backward, mainly relying on handmade and mechanical special effects.

With the development of computer technology, Huaxia film special effects technology has been greatly improved and advanced.

In the early 90s, Huaxia Film Special Effects began to use computer-generated special effects.

In 1991, the movie "White Deer Plain" introduced computer special effects technology for the first time.

Using technologies such as virtual lenses and digital compositing, successful results have been achieved.

Since then, more and more movies have begun to try to use computer special effects technology.

At the same time, the country has also begun to attach great importance to the development of this aspect, and has issued relevant documents many times to support this technology.

With the continuous advancement of computer technology, Huaxia film special effects technology entered a new stage of development around 2000.

Some technology companies have begun to provide special effects production services to film studios.

With the emergence of these companies, Huaxia film special effects production began to gradually become professional.

Although the special effects of "Source Code" are not many, it is unique in China in terms of exquisiteness and realism.

At the same time, special effects are not only used in movies, its influence is in all aspects, and it can be used in almost any place where the screen is displayed.

It is against this background that this interview with "News Network" was facilitated.

"Go back and prepare well, and seize this opportunity."

Han Shanping patted Jiang Pei'an's shoulder with a smile and said.

Jiang Pei'an smiled and said:
"It turns out that the big move you mentioned, Mr. Han, is this."

Han Shanping nodded and said:

"I heard that there was such a topic over there before, so I applied for it.

Hehe, at that time there was no [-]% guarantee of success, so I didn't disclose it in advance. "

"I understand, please trouble Dong Han."

Jiang Pei'an said slowly.

"You boy, now you're out with me..."

Han Shanping scolded with a smile. (end of this chapter)
