Chapter 188 Director of Xiangjiang Going North

"Blow hard!"

"Slow down, open your mouth a little, and cover it!"

"You don't need me to teach you this!"

The atmosphere in the dimly lit room was very fiery.

Chen Shiping felt a little hot, but he couldn't help but curse.

What the hell are you talking about!
Yu Feihong looked at Chen Shiping with a red face, feeling that his temper was not very good and he knew how to curse.

In front of the furnace in the glass factory workshop, Cheng Daoming stood in front of the camera with a somewhat embarrassed expression. Glassblowing is very difficult, okay? He is not a woman!
The studio was extremely quiet at this time, and many old men were holding back their smiles.

Chen Shiping frowned and said, "Didn't you study for a few days? And you learned like this?"

Cheng Daoming coughed awkwardly and said, "I'll practice again. The glass can be reburned. It won't be wasted."

"Okay, you can practice. Don't be fooled. But you can't lie at a glance." Chen Shiping sat on the pony and took the opportunity to be lazy.

"Xiao Hong, bring two big oranges to quell the fire."

Yu Feihong said in a low voice: "It would be better if you curse less. If you get angry after eating oranges, eat less."

"Then pour me a cup of tea." Chen Shiping said with his legs crossed.

Yu Feihong poured the tea and asked quietly: "Aren't you afraid of others talking nonsense?"

"I haven't done anything, so what are you afraid of?" Chen Shiping glanced at her and said, "If you have nothing to do, go learn to blow glass and practice more."

Yu Feihong blushed and muttered: "Why am I practicing this?"

"Then shut up and pour the tea."

"."

It’s so infuriating!

Yu Feihong really wanted to pour hot water on Chen Shiping, but she just came over to serve him tea and water at her leisure!

Chen Shiping looked at the angry Yu Feihong and clicked his tongue, "I can bear this."

It seems that he really wants to learn from his predecessors and rise to the top by following the scandals of famous directors?
But there's no need for her background, she's so free.

I don't bother to care about her. This kind of scandal can't be spread anyway. The people who support the crew are gossiping in private. Who dares to say it outside is not making themselves uncomfortable.

What's more, Chen Shiping didn't do anything, he never touched his hands, so who can say anything?
Chen Shiping yawned and looked at Cheng Daoming who was working hard to blow glass in front of him. No matter how good his acting was in the future, at least he was still working hard at this time.

He has a strong scholarly spirit, unlike when he acted like Kangxi later.

But this is also a kind of affirmation, indicating that his performance of Kangxi is indeed good.

After a while, Cheng Daoming was almost done with the practice, and Chen Shiping did not continue to find fault. He moved on to the scene after filming, as he could not delay the normal production of the glass factory.

When leaving, Chen Shiping deliberately teased Yu Feihong and asked her if she wanted to hurry up and learn to blow glass.

Yu Feihong blushed greatly. We are still college students. Could you please stop using such harsh words?

"I didn't say anything. It's weird if you think too much. How could you understand it in seconds?" Chen Shiping said with a smile.

"Because I am your reader, you don't know what you have written?!"

"."

Chen Shiping had even forgotten that he had written Red Wall. There were indeed a lot of pornographic things written in it.

Sin! Pure white college students are led astray by themselves.

The crew transitioned to continue filming, but the filming of Love Letter was still very stressful, so we had to take advantage of the snow to film, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to film it in spring.

I originally wanted to go to the Northeast to take pictures, but the industrial atmosphere in the Northeast is too strong, and there are smoking chimneys everywhere, which is really not very beautiful.

Now we can only find places to shoot around the capital, and the entire crew travels around the capital every day.

Chen Shiping hasn't been home for several days. He finished shooting the exterior scenes before returning to Beijing Film Studio to shoot the interior scenes.

Tao Huimin, who stays at home every day, has no time to talk to Chen Shiping now. He is busy preparing for filming TV series every day.

The filming of Love Letter is in full swing, and preparations for other films in the factory are also in full swing.

The entire production department was sent out to find actors to determine the location, and to storyboard and formulate a shooting plan.

In the past, there were no majors in production. Most of the producers in the factory were either screenwriters or directors, and they were not familiar with these things.

This saves a lot of effort, otherwise a completely new person would not be able to do the preparatory work for a movie.

At this time, professors from the Nortel School of Management also gathered together for a meeting to discuss whether to adjust the curriculum of the film major.

The original production major was trained to assist directors. To put it bluntly, they were just doing odd jobs.

But now that Beijing Film Studio has implemented a producer-centered system, the school's original professional setting is not suitable.

"The courses will not be changed for the time being. I don't know whether the producer-centered system of Beijing Film Studio will eventually be implemented, but the number of students in the production major will be expanded next year."

"Enrollment expansion is inevitable. Even if there is no producer-centered system, major film studios will be short of professional talents in the future, and distribution majors will also need to expand enrollment."

"Film reform is coming too fast. I did a survey recently and found that theater chains in many areas are also planning to renovate. In the future, screening talents will be scarce."

"This is a good thing. It means that the film and television industry is booming. Next year, enrollment will be expanded, except for directing majors!"

Under the influence of Chen Shiping, Nortel also changed the school's policies, and changes in the entire industry will affect all aspects.

If development follows the previous route, the next ten years will be an ice age for mainland movies!

Since 1990, the film industry has been in decline. In 1993, it officially fell off a cliff. Now, Chen Shiping has turned the tide and lifted it up again.

Although many people in the industry don't want to admit it, they all remember Chen Shiping's goodness in their hearts.

Mainland filmmakers remember Chen Shiping for his excellence, but the opposite is true in Xiangjiang. Everyone hates Chen Shiping.

Many films had originally negotiated investments with Wanwan investors, but now they have withdrawn all their investment and gone back.

The eight major investors are either going north or sitting in Wanwan waiting for Xiangjiang Film to take the initiative to co-produce and take back the initiative in the film market!
The Directors Guild in Hong Kong basically exists in name only and has little influence. The only thing it can control is the Academy Awards.

When Wu Siyuan thinks of the Academy Awards, he will think of what Lou Ye said, local small awards amuse themselves.

The influence of Hong Kong films was suddenly cut off by the mainland and Bay Area, and the influence of the Hong Kong Film Awards has also declined. If no changes are made, it may really become a small award for self-entertainment.

Directors from Hong Kong have joined the China Film Directors Association, and some have gone to Wanwan to develop their careers. We don’t know how many Hong Kong films will come back to participate in the Academy Awards in the future.

If you don't think of a way, you will really be doomed!
Wu Siyuan is powerless against the general trend of the film market.

But the Academy Award is the only card the Directors Association has, so we can’t let it fall like this!

In a high-end teahouse, Wu Siyuan looked at Cheng Long sitting opposite and asked: "Ssangyong Club is about to be released. Can we go in from Wanwan?"

"Okay, but I want to try to see if I can enter the mainland market. Is there anything you can do?"

Wu Siyuan was silent for a while and said: "The mainland market is difficult, but the venue for the director's conference does not cost that much money."

Cheng Long hesitated to speak and looked at Wu Siyuan, wondering whether he should explain it clearly to him. Those who originally invested no longer want to use the profits from the film to purchase the director's club property.

After Cheng Long struggled for a while, he decided not to talk about this matter himself, and let the directors in the director's association deal with it themselves.

He looked at Wu Siyuan and continued to ask: "Is there any way to use Chen Shiping's relationship to enter the mainland market?"

Wu Siyuan's expression was not very good. His relationship with Chen Shiping was not good. They had a tit-for-tat confrontation during the previous film exchange meeting.

However, in order to make more money from the film and organize a director's conference, he still said: "Let's talk to Shi Nansheng about this matter. She has a better relationship with Chen Shiping."

Cheng Long nodded and said, "Then I'll go talk to him."

After Cheng Long found Shi Nansheng, he told her about it.

Shi Nansheng didn't dare to vouch for it. Although she was now in the same camp as Chen Shiping, no one could predict Chen Shiping's character.

The most important thing is that she doesn't want to help. Director Xiangjiang will be as miserable as possible!

If she hadn't considered Cheng Long's influence, she wouldn't have helped.

"The best case scenario is that you come with me, and we happen to have several directors who are going to the mainland together." Shi Nansheng said compromise.

Cheng Long thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. The mainland film market is developing so well that it would be good to learn about it.

At this time, in an apartment in Xiangjiang, Li Lianjie felt uncomfortable looking at the proud but melancholy looking Li Zhi opposite him.

Her sacrifice in the Double Dragon Club was too great.

Li Lianjie couldn't help but said with relief: "The worst thing is that I won't act anymore, I will support you."

Li Zhi burst out laughing, looked at him and said, "What do you do to support me?"

Li Lianjie didn't know how to answer. He was really angry now. He was bullied in Xiangjiang before, and now the woman he likes is also bullied.

Although Li Zhi has no relationship with him now and he has not divorced, he already regards Li Zhi as his own woman.

Li Zhi suddenly thought of something at this time, looked at him and said: "By the way, Ssangyong Club wants to enter the mainland market, can you help? Aren't you familiar with Chen Shiping?"

Li Lianjie frowned, then smiled and said, "Okay, Director Chen and I are very familiar with each other."

"That's great, so I can gain popularity in the mainland." Li Zhi said happily.

Li Lianjie smiled and didn't answer. He didn't think so. The woman who bullied him wanted to go to the mainland to make money! Go ahead and dream!

If "Ssangyong Club" is released in the mainland, the scene of Li Zhi being bullied will be seen by people across the country.

He couldn't afford to lose this person, and he didn't want his beloved woman to be bullied and seen on the screen.

Li Lianjie and Li Zhi chatted for a few words before making excuses to leave. He immediately booked tickets and prepared to return to the capital.

On the plane to the capital, Li Lianjie bumped into Shi Nansheng and others.

Li Lianjie looked at Cheng Long with an unfriendly look, which made Cheng Long confused.

Shi Nansheng smiled and chatted with Li Lianjie for a few words, and then explained to Cheng Long in a low voice: "He is pursuing Li Zhi, don't you know?"

Cheng Long said carelessly: "What does it have to do with me? Why don't you go find trouble with Fa Zai or He? You think I'm easy to bully."

Shi Nansheng shook his head helplessly, feeling that this time might not go so smoothly.

But this is exactly what she wants. It would be better if Ssangyong Club didn't make any money. The more money it makes, the better it would be for Xiangjiang Director Club.

The worse the director will be, the greater her profits will be in the future.

It's best if Director Xiangjiang can't survive, so that she can control more directors in the future and strive for greater benefits for herself.

When Xiangjiang filmmakers go north, they will definitely need a leader and agent. Shi Nansheng has already regarded himself and Xu Ke as such agents!

After 1997, there will be more cooperation between Hong Kong and the Mainland. At that time, more people will go north. At that time, the Wanwan market will inevitably cut off the cooperation of Hong Kong films in Wanwan.

The mainland will definitely be the main battlefield for the development of Hong Kong filmmakers in the future. The greater your advantage in the mainland, the greater your voice will be in the Hong Kong film industry in the future!

This is an easy account to settle. Shi Nansheng is not stupid, and he hopes that Double Dragon will attack the street.

Soon the plane landed in Beijing. Li Lianjie and Shi Nansheng went directly to Beijing Film Studio as soon as they got off the plane.

However, after arriving at Beijing Film Studio, I found out that Chen Shiping was not in the factory and was filming a movie outside.

The directors in the factory felt panicked when they saw so many Xiangjiang directors coming to find Chen Shiping.

But I was more fortunate because I didn't expect Chen Shiping to have something hidden.

If they had really fought back, these Hong Kong directors would have been able to replace them without Chen Shiping promoting new people.

Chen Shiping was not found in the factory, so the two groups left directly.

Watching Li Lianjie leaving in the car at the gate of Beijing Film Studio, Shi Nansheng guessed what he was doing when he came back this time, so he deliberately dragged Cheng Long to prevent him from going to find Chen Shiping now.

"Let's go to the hotel to stay first, and I'll ask Director Chen to have dinner with us in the evening." Shi Nansheng said to Cheng Long with a smile.

Cheng Long didn't think much about it and said with a smile, "Okay, it's not polite to go to them directly."

"Okay, then you go to the hotel with them first, and I'll go meet an old friend."

After Shi Nansheng and Cheng Long separated, they went directly to find Tao Huimin, and the wife's route could not be left behind.

The pillow style is always useful, but it's a pity that Guan Zhilin is unwilling to help him, and that silly girl Zhang Min is also busy speculating in real estate with Guan Zhilin.

Two good cards were wasted.

At this time, on a hillside on the outskirts of Beijing, Chen Shiping was looking at the picture on the monitor, and Yu Feihong was climbing a mountain.

On the set, a big crane was hanging high in the air to photograph Yu Feihong, and the picture on the monitor was extremely beautiful.

Next to Chen Shiping, there was another person sitting on the pony that originally belonged to Yu Feihong. She looked at the picture on the monitor and said, "The picture is really beautiful, but your equipment is really good!"

Chen Shiping smiled slightly and said, "It was also a gift from a rich lady."

Liu Xiaoqing laughed and said, "You blame me, a rich lady, for not buying you equipment."

"We siblings don't talk about that." Chen Shiping picked up the loudspeaker and shouted, then turned around and asked: "Sister, you must have something to do when you come to me this time, right?"

Liu Xiaoqing smiled and said, "I can't come to you if I have nothing to do."

"Yes, but you will definitely not come to the set in the ice and snow to find me."

"You kid, you miss your sister so much."

"Then just tell me if there's anything wrong."

"Indeed, I have a book I want to show you. It was written by Jiang Wen."

Chen Shiping was slightly startled, remembering that Jiang Wen had written the book "Sunny Days" long ago.

I just couldn't make up my mind and didn't have the money, so I kept delaying.

I just didn't expect that Liu Xiaoqing would find his own fault now. Was he going to invest in Jiang Wenla?
