Acting school started in 1998

Chapter 67

"Suddenly..."

Li Tang rode a motorcycle to Xujiahui. When he was at home in the country in the afternoon, he received a call from Lou Ye, saying that some of his classmates were coming to have dinner together.

Although Lou Dao is taciturn, he is not socially intimidated.If you invite him to dinner, he must be happy to participate, that is, he will not talk much, just sit there and listen quietly.In the end, when everyone is drunk, he will take out a pocket camera and take pictures of your ugly appearances one by one with great interest.

Of course, it is almost rare for him to take the initiative to treat guests. Li Tang remembered that his classmates came over last time, and he also took him to accompany him.

The classmate from last time was Wang Xiaoshuai. He has a very good relationship with Lou Ye. In his debut novel "Days of Winter and Spring", Lou Ye also played a role in it.

Wang Xiaoshuai is also from Shanghai. According to him, he was born in the Central Hospital of JA District. Later, his parents supported the construction of the third line, and the family moved to Shangougou in Guizhou.However, the environment he lives in Guizhou is still a group of third-line construction supporters from Shanghai like his parents, so he can still speak Shanghai dialect fluently.

Compared with Lou Ye's taciturnity, Wang Xiaoshuai is very talkative and flirtatious. He just graduated from the director department of Nortel, so he took the opportunity to shoot commercials to meet the actor who played Lin Daiyu in the TV series "Dream of Red Mansions" where he had an advertising company at that time. Together, lived together for several years.

After that, Wang Xiaoshuai was recruited by the system. Last year, he filmed a literary film "Fantasy Garden" jointly produced by Beijing Film Studio and Movie Channel. Yu Feihong, who plays Yan, is said to be dating now.

The person who came today is called Lu Xuechang. Compared with the famous Wang Xiaoshuai and Lou Ye, he seems unknown. Li Tang only heard of his name when Wang Xiaoshuai came last time. Classmates, and then admitted to the Nortel Directing Department together.

Therefore, most of the students in their directing department were born in painting. As directors, understanding of composition, color, and aesthetics is very important.

When passing the intersection of Xingeng Road and Wanping South Road, he deliberately stopped to look at Xujiahui Garden, which was still under construction. They were all small high-rise buildings, the structure had been capped, and the exterior walls were being decorated. It was estimated that the house would be handed over in July and August.

This community is definitely considered a prime location, with Zhaojiabang Road to the north, and it takes at most five or six minutes to walk from the entrance of the community to the Xujiahui business district.There is No. 6 Middle School opposite the community, a proper school district room.Moreover, the houses in the entire community are of panel structure, not the common point structure, with one ladder and two households, and the north and south are transparent.

The only disadvantage is probably that the distance between the houses is not large enough. Fortunately, Lao Li bought it early and paid for it in full. The house he picked happened to be in front of a small garden, which was unobstructed and had a wide view.

Lou Ye's restaurant is on Xin Geng Road. It doesn't have a big face, but the business is very good. The lobby on the first floor is already full. When you go to the second floor, you open the door of the box.

There were three people sitting inside, two men and one woman, except for Lou Ye, Li Tang recognized at a glance that the lady among them was the big star Ma Xiaoqin.

In the memory of the original body, "Ah!Xiao Xiangzhu in the Cradle, and Liu Meiping, the female doctor who fell in love with Ge You in "The Stubborn Lord", and of course the most impressive one is "BJ in New York", where she plays Jiang Wen and Yan Xiaoping's daughter Ning Ning.

Speaking of which, she was only a few years younger than Jiang Wen and Yan Xiaoping, but with her baby face, she didn't feel any disobedience.

In the early 90s, she was really popular, but in the past two years, she seemed to be a little quiet.

The man sitting next to Ma Xiaoqin, about 35, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and long hair, looks very refined.

Seeing Li Tang enter the door, all three of them stood up.

"This is Senior Lu, Ma Xiaoqin, and this is Li Tang." Director Lou's introduction was concise and to the point.

"Guide Lu, hello!"

"Hello!"

Senior Lu obviously had a capital accent.

"Ma...uh, Teacher Ma, hello!"

Li Tang wanted to call Ms. Ma, but he thought about her status in the industry, and she was in the 86th grade of drama, and he was a classmate with his head teacher when he was in school, so it is understandable to call him "Teacher Ma".

"Hey, I don't dare to be called Teacher Ma." Ma Xiaoqin said with a smile.

I am used to watching her play the big girl in the alley of the capital, but when I heard her speak Shanghai dialect, Li Tang felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

Fortunately, Lou Ye added another sentence: "Li Tang graduated from acting."

Ma Xiaoqin immediately laughed and said, "So it's my real junior brother!"

Li Tang also took advantage of the situation and shouted: "Hello Senior Sister!"

"My senior sister is not qualified, and I dropped out of school after only two years."

This is no longer news. As Ma Xiaoqin became popular, the media naturally spared no effort to dig out her past.

When everyone arrived, Lou Ye signaled the waiter to serve the food, and also brought two bottles of rice wine.

Li Tang got up to pour the wine, the first one was of course Senior Lu, the guest of honor, but before Senior Lu could speak, Ma Xiaoqin took the wine glass from him: "Senior doesn't drink."

Senior Lu also nodded to him apologetically.

"Come on, fill me up." Ma Xiaoqin took her own cup over again.

Li Tang didn't pay much attention to the scene of pouring wine at first, but gradually he realized something was wrong. It seemed that Ma Xiaoqin was very familiar with Lu Xuechang, what kind of food he liked, handed him a napkin, and directly picked up Lu Xuechang You don't need to say hello to light a cigarette, in short, it's very casual.

But it is clear that Ma Xiaoqin seems to have a boyfriend in his words, and he is very mysterious. Just using him as a substitute is like a superficial touch on water.

During the meeting, Senior Lu was mainly chatting about the new work he was currently preparing, called "Broad Daylight", which was a suspenseful movie based on a real case.The main purpose of coming here this time is to invite Ma Xiaoqin to play the leading role in this film.

Lou Ye seldom talks, and occasionally answers some questions about "Suzhou River". The post-production of "Suzhou River" is almost the same. At present, it is mainly the work of film soundtrack and some subtitle translation, after all, it has to be taken out to participate in the film festival.

"When are you going to send it for trial?" Senior Lu asked.

"Look, I'll give it away when I'm done," Lou Ye said.

"What if it doesn't pass? Are you planning to take it abroad to participate in the exhibition?"

Facing this question, Lou Ye obviously hesitated.

Senior Lu obviously understood Lou Ye's thoughts, and sighed, "One of you, and one of Xiao Shuai, are both uncompromising temperaments, but I still want to say that there is no rule without rules."

"They don't have rules at all, and they don't have a fixed standard. What do you think I should do?"

Lou Ye's unexpected excitement startled Li Tang who was next to him. It was the first time he saw Lou Ye lose his composure like this.

Senior Lu seemed very calm, took a sip of tea, and said unhurriedly: "You know what to do, but you just refuse to do it."

Lou Ye remained silent, eating the Dried Malan Fragrant Dish in front of him, and seemed to have a soft spot for this dish.

That's right, Ma Lantou was supposed to reduce fire.

The atmosphere was a bit dull, Li Tang was conscious of accompanying the guests, so he raised his glass to toast and said, "Director Lu, you replace the wine with tea, and I toast you a glass."

"Thank you, you can do whatever you want." Lu Xuechang picked up the cup and touched him with a smile.

After drinking, his eyes fell on Li Tang, and he said, "I just watched the clip of "Suzhou River" at Lou Ye's this afternoon. Both you and Zhou Xun performed very well."

Li Tang said politely, "Director Lu, you deserve the award."

Senior Lu waved his hand and said, "I've never talked about scenes. If it's good, it's good, and if it's bad, it's not good. Lou Ye and Xiaoqin both know this."

"Then...uh, thank you Director Lu."

Li Tang was a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Senior Lu immediately said again: "I heard that you just helped Cheng Er complete his graduation project, how do you feel?"

Li Tang glanced at Lou Ye and said, "Well, it was introduced by Brother Ye. Cheng Er is a very thoughtful director."

Senior Lu smiled, held up his teacup and said respectfully, "We have a consensus on this point."

Li Tang had a drink with him, and the embarrassment disappeared immediately.

Then the two chatted about things during the filming period. Senior Lu's questions were very professional, and Li Tang answered his questions from the perspective of an actor.

After chatting for a while, Senior Lu looked at Li Tang differently. It was not the same way he looked at the little brother just now, but a way that everyone communicated on an equal footing.
