Started as an independent producer in 1988

Chapter 140 Stupid woman!

"I am a man, not a girl."

Xiaodouzi's handsome little face was covered with sweat and fear, but he still said that he was a tomboy.

The master took the folding fan and knocked it in his hand a few times, with a faint mockery on his old face.

"Is the nun a male or a female?"

Xiaodouzi's lips were trembling and he said nervously: "The man."

The master's expression changed and he said with a snort: "You have really entered the stage of transformation. You can no longer distinguish between male and female."

Chen Shiping sat in front of the monitor and couldn't stop nodding. The acting skills of these young men really opened his eyes.

Whether it is Xiao Laizi or Xiao Douzi, their performances are expressive and natural, without any affectation or pretense of children, which is much better than many adult actors nowadays!

If Chen Shiping can really tell, the acting skills of these young actors are much better than Zhang Guorong, Zhang Fengyi and others.

"Ka! It's over, put your legs down."

After Chen Shiping shouted, he turned to look at Zhang Guorong and asked, "Are you feeling stressed?"

Zhang Guorong couldn't help but nod. He really felt the pressure. Izhi's performance was really good.

Chen Shiping laughed and said, "It's a good thing to have pressure. Come back and perform well. How are your dialect studies going?"

"The teacher said I'm quite authentic now!" Zhang Guorong's pronunciation was strange, but he was very confident.

People around him couldn't help laughing.

Zhang Guorong looked at them strangely, thinking that his accent was quite strong.

Chen Shiping patted him on the shoulder and said, "You have a lot of money!"

As soon as Chen Shiping's Northeast dialect came out, everyone laughed even harder.

After a brief interlude, the crew got busy again. Zhang Guorong and Zhang Fengyi stayed on the set for a while before returning to the film studio to continue training.

Chen Shiping also had to continue filming. Although the performance of the young actors was very good, the filming was not so smooth.

One of the most difficult things about filming scenes with young actors is to clearly express the characters’ emotions and reactions.

Especially in many scenes, the emotions of the characters are relatively complex, and it is difficult for young actors to understand the meaning behind that scene.

Children's minds are very sensitive, and their sensibility is several times that of adults, but the premise is that you have to explain it clearly to them and let them feel that emotion.

Chen Shiping looked at Iji, who had red lips and white teeth, and said with a smile, "Has the teacher ever hit you in school?"

Iji nodded and said, "I haven't fought before, but if you don't practice well, you will be punished."

Chen Shiping turned to look at his mother who had accompanied Izhi and asked in a low voice, "Has your mother ever had a quip?"

Iji secretly glanced at his mother and nodded quickly.

Iji was born in a theater family and started studying opera since he was a child. How could he not have been beaten by his parents?

To be precise, there are many Chinese children who have never been spanked by their parents. When they were naughty and disobedient when they were young, they were more or less punished.

"I've been studying acting since I was a child. I'm so tired from practicing and my mother doesn't beat me. Have you ever wanted to give up?" Chen Shiping asked again.

Iji clasped his fingers and hummed. While other children were playing wildly in the alley when they were young, he was at home babbling and reciting lyrics and singing.

I was criticized by my parents for my bad memorization. How could I not think of giving up?

"Think about how I felt at the time. I didn't want to learn or practice, and I was beaten every day. Did I feel aggrieved or scared?"

Chen Shiping guided Izhi little by little to help him find that feeling, otherwise the subsequent scenes would be really difficult.

The emotions of nervousness and fear are relatively simple and not difficult to perform, but the feeling of death is difficult to perform.

What kind of things has the child experienced at such a young age? If he is not allowed to find similar emotions, he will not be able to act.

Chen Shiping and Izhi sat there chatting for a long time, and he slowly found that feeling.

Chen Shiping immediately asked the crew to prepare for filming. The bathtub in the room was filled with hot water, and the whole room was filled with water vapor.

Xiaodouzi sat in the barrel holding his beaten and bruised hands, and Xiaoshi used a water ladle to shower him.

"Senior brother, if I am beaten to death tomorrow, there are three big sons under the pillow mat, and I will give them to you."

Little Shitou said nothing. Seeing Little Douzi trying to wipe his eyes with his injured hand, he quickly stopped him and said, "Pay attention! If your hand is broken, you won't be able to sing."

After hearing Xiao Shitou's words, Xiao Douzi gritted his teeth and put his injured hand into the water. Xiao Shitou quickly grabbed his hand and took it out.

Chen Shiping watched this scene and felt that Iji's performance was really good. His fear of the future and lack of hope and his desire to escape were fully expressed.

If my hands are ruined, I can’t sing, so I’ll ruin myself! Being kicked out by the master is better than being beaten to death!

"It's done! This scene is over!" Chen Shiping stood up and shouted, and then said with a smile: "Just in time for you to wash up and come out."

The originally quiet room suddenly became lively, and the seven or eight boys in the tub and the tub all breathed a sigh of relief and started to make a fuss.

Children are good at it. They get in and out of the play quickly. They scream and splash water on each other in the room.

Zhao Fei and Gu Changwei guarded the camera and shouted: "Ancestor, don't damage the camera!"

After saying that, the two of them ran out while protecting the camera.

It was already past seven o'clock and it was getting dark. Several boys came out after taking a shower and changing clothes.

The crew has called it a day.

The overall filming went very smoothly, which was an encouragement to the entire crew and Chen Shiping.

Although the film took so long to prepare, the effect is very good.

On the way back from work, Xu Feng and Chen Shiping were sitting in a car. She watched Chen Shiping shoot for two days, and she felt deeply in her heart.

Every shot and every actor's performance has a kind of piety, as if everyone is giving everything for this movie.

Such spirit and appeal were something she had never seen before.

If Xu Feng was worried about whether Chen Shiping could film well at first, now he is completely relieved after watching it.

Xu Feng really loved this kind of shooting atmosphere, and he was very happy that he didn't listen to the advice and chose Xu Anhua and the others to shoot.

This kind of movie has to be made by a mainland director.

The weight of history and the heavy sense of fate cannot be expressed by ordinary people. "Li Bihua is coming tomorrow. I'll pick her up at the airport. Do you want to come with me?" Xu Feng suddenly asked.

Chen Shiping shook his head and said, "Early tomorrow morning, I'm going to the Qinghe River to film a movie. I don't have time to pick up anyone." '

Listening to Chen Shiping's Beijing dialect, Xu Feng couldn't help laughing and said: "Why are you talking in dialect too?"

"The whole crew has to say that, and I am no exception." Chen Shiping joked: "You should learn from this later."

"I can't learn well." Xu Feng said with some emotion: "Fortunately, I listened to you and didn't choose Cheng Long and Zhou Runfa, otherwise the drama would have been ruined."

"Zhang Guorong is not learning very well now. I'm a little worried."

Chen Shiping shrugged and said, "You still want Lin Qingxia to play the role of Juxian? Can she play a capitalist eldest lady well? Have you ever seen a prostitute? She knows the eight alleys."

Xu Feng: "." Why didn't you say this to Lin Qingxia in the first place! I'll blow it here!

Go back and spread rumors and let Lin Qingxia come to trouble you!

At this time, Lin Qingxia was promoting the new film of Oriental Invincible in Xiangjiang. Xu Qing also took the opportunity to come to Xiangjiang for promotion, hoping to see if she could successfully enter the Xiangjiang market.

For Xu Qing, the crew of The Undefeated Oriental still take good care of her. They all know that she was recommended by Chen Shiping, so they will naturally take care of her.

Coming to Xiangjiang from the mainland and seeing the prosperity of Xiangjiang and the booming film market, Xu Qing felt a desire in her heart, hoping that she could become a big star like Lin Qingxia.

Lin Qingxia will have many fans wherever she goes, and people in the Hong Kong film circle are also very polite to her.

Even Guan Zhilin is the same, very popular with everyone. The success of Huang Feihong has made Guan Zhilin's popularity increase a lot, and his salary has increased to 650,000.

Xu Qing looked at the beautiful Lin Qingxia and Guan Zhilin, and then looked at herself who was so unknown that she could only stand in the corner as a backdrop, and the desire in her heart burned like wildfire.

She also wants to be famous and become a big star like Lin Qingxia and Guan Zhilin!

But in the Hong Kong film industry, she doesn't have any connections. If she wants to develop, she can only rely on existing connections.

The only people she knows now are Xu Ke, Lin Qingxia and Guan Zhilin. If these connections are used well, she may have the opportunity to stay in Xiangjiang and develop.

It's just that for some reason, Guan Zhilin and Lin Qingxia didn't have a good attitude towards her. Among the actors in the same group, only Li Lianjie had a good attitude towards her.

After thinking for a long time, Xu Qing found that she could only try to establish a relationship with Xu Ke. His wife Shi Nansheng seemed to be quite easy to talk to.

After going to the cinema and returning from the promotion, Xu Qing took the initiative to find Xu Ke and get close to him.

Xu Ke and Shi Nansheng were together. Seeing Xu Qing's enthusiasm, he guessed what she was thinking, but he thought she was quite stupid.

With Chen Shiping's relationship, why would he come to see him? Xu Ke is still worried about how to establish a relationship with Chen Shiping.

However, thinking that the relationship between Xu Qing and Chen Shiping should be good, Shi Nansheng thought about it and asked with a smile: "How is your relationship with Director Chen?"

Xu Qing hesitated and said, "Very good, but he is the factory director now."

"Yes, yes, I forgot that he got promoted." Shi Nansheng said with a smile: "It's not impossible for you to develop in Xiangjiang. I can help you, but you also have to help me."

Xu Qing looked at her with confusion and asked, "What do you need my help with?"

Shi Nansheng smiled and talked to Xu Qing about the issue of Oriental Invincible being released in the mainland.

After the movie was finished, she approached China Film Group Corporation with the finished film, but China Film Group Corporation felt the film was not good after watching it.

The plot is funny and not serious, and Fu Hua Dao is shoddy and unsuitable for large-scale release in the mainland.

The most important thing is that China Film is only willing to buy out or buy copies, which is the same as the cooperation method before the reform.

This is a result that Shi Nansheng and Xu Ke do not want to accept. The mainland film market has been reformed, and you still follow the original policies. So what is the point of my co-production?

Xu Ke and Shi Nansheng's idea is to be the first to take advantage of the situation, so that The Unbeatable East can become the first Xiangjiang movie to take advantage of the situation, and be able to directly participate in the share of the movie's box office.

After Xu Qing heard what Shi Nansheng said, she pointed at her nose and asked in surprise: "You don't think I can help you, do you?"

"Of course you can't, but Chen Shiping can." Shi Nansheng said with a smile: "Your relationship with her is unusual, right? We can help each other."

Xu Qing understood what she meant, and after a moment of silence she said, "I can try, but what can you help me with?"

"I will bring you into the Hong Kong circle." Shi Nansheng said with a smile: "This is a good opportunity. I hope you will consider it carefully."

Xu Qing naturally didn't dare to agree. Her relationship with Chen Shiping was not as good as others thought.

But with such a good opportunity in front of her, she couldn't remain indifferent, so she gritted her teeth and said, "I can, but I can't guarantee whether it will succeed."

"Your words are enough." Shi Nansheng said with a smile.

After Xu Qing left, Xu Ke said nonchalantly: "She should have nothing to do with Chen Shiping, otherwise she wouldn't have found us. Why are you talking to her so much?"

Shi Nansheng said with a smile: "It's fun. I can see Chen Shiping's reaction through her. What is his attitude towards co-productions? He wants to be the sole leader. He really wants to cooperate."

Xu Ke nodded and didn't care, and he didn't expect Xu Qing to really help him.

Xu Qing returned to the hotel room in the evening, and her brain calmed down. She felt that she was a bit high at the time, so why did she dare to answer anything.

But with such a good opportunity in front of me, I felt very unwilling not to give it a try.

Xu Qing fell on the bed and rolled around wildly, then climbed to the bedside and picked up the landline phone in the room to call Chen Shiping.

Over in the capital, Chen Shiping hummed a few times on the phone, then suddenly put down the pen in his hand and couldn't help but frown.

"Why are you so concerned about the release of Oriental Invincible?"

When Xu Qing on the other end of the phone heard Chen Shiping's words, she subconsciously shrank her shoulders and said a little nervously: "I'm just asking casually. It's been released in Xiangjiang. I'm concerned about the situation in mainland China."

Chen Shiping felt something was wrong and asked directly: "Did Mr. Xu come to you to check on me? Or did he come to you to set up a matchmaking relationship?"

"Can't you tell, Xu Qing, you have started to work as a broker now that you are capable."

Hearing Chen Shiping's teasing voice, Xu Qing suddenly cried and said, "I'm just asking, why are you being mean to me?"

Chen Shiping had no reaction to her coquettishness, and said in a serious tone: "Don't be bored with me, tell me the matter clearly!"

Seeing Chen Shiping getting angry, Xu Qing explained everything clearly.

After listening to Xu Qing's words, Chen Shiping only felt that this girl was a little stupid. No, she was too stupid!

Is this something you can get involved in? And she believes whatever others say!

To put it nicely, I will bring you into the circle, but to put it badly, I will send you into the circle as a gift!

Chen Shiping was really angry. He had always been tough in Hong Kong and tried every means to suppress the arrogance of Hong Kong filmmakers.

Xu Qing is good, but it's the other way around, and she wants to stick to her!

The key is that Xu Qing was introduced into the group by him. This is simply embarrassing for Chen Shiping!

"Come back here tomorrow, do you know that it is my face you are embarrassing!"

Chen Shiping cursed angrily and hung up the phone. He was so angry at Xu Qing's stupidity.

I must teach her a lesson when she comes back!
