Started as an independent producer in 1988

Chapter 254 He should wear a hat!
Early the next morning, Chen Shiping saw Chen Hong off to the car downstairs in the hotel.

"Slow down on your way back and call me when you get to the capital."

Chen Hong hummed and said, "I wish you a smooth shooting. I'm leaving. Bye!"

Because there were outsiders around, Chen Hong didn't dare to show too much intimacy.

I can only say hello like an old friend.

But the more this happened, the more uncomfortable she felt.

She has been in the dark for several years and she doesn't want to give up.

At first I thought I could endure it, but now the longer time goes by, the more unbalanced I feel.

Chen Hong looked at Chen Shiping getting further and further away in the rearview mirror and couldn't help but squeeze her little pink fist.

I dragged Chen Shiping here several times yesterday, and I must win this time!

Even if Tao Huimin can't be squeezed out, she still has to be the eldest son's legitimate mother!

At the very least, he must be able to compete with Tao Huimin!

Why should I keep losing?

After seeing Chen Hong off, Chen Shiping went to work on filming.

In the old auditorium, there are slogans hanging everywhere, pink with red characters, and bright red curtains.

The color combination is simply ugly!

I'm going to fuck you!
What a mess!
Chen Shiping's head turned big. He looked at the people in the art team and cursed: "Do you think this auditorium looks decent?! Is this your aesthetic?!"

The people in the art team couldn't help but swallow and explained: "This is in line with the characteristics of the times."

"Have you ever seen red lettering on foundation?! You can even make it black! It's all red! It's so ugly that my grandma's house! Take it apart and redo it!"

Chen Shiping really didn't want to curse, but he couldn't do it without scolding. The art team was definitely lazy!

If you are lazy, they will become lazy too!
Don’t turn on your phone today and go out to sea to catch big fish!
Chen Shiping got on the boat and went to sea, and Li Xiaoran followed him.

While Chen Shiping was sitting there waiting for the fish to take the bait, Li Xiaoran started talking about Aba Aba.

"Yesterday I asked you to eat, but why did you ignore me?"

"Chen Hong is so beautiful. You two have a good relationship."

"I heard a noise from your room."

"Is it Chen Hong singing to you?"

"I can do it too. Can I sing it to you tonight?"

Chen Shiping turned to look at her and said, "I was watching a movie yesterday."

"Movie?!" Li Xiaoran was stunned. Did he misunderstand?
But why are you watching that kind of movie in your room?
Li Xiaoran's face suddenly turned red. Did he understand the hint I just made?

ah! ! shameful!

Li Xiaoran wrung his fingers and said hesitantly: "Then I can watch it with you."

"No, thank you."

After Chen Shiping finished speaking, he saw the float move and immediately sat up straight and stared at the sea.

Swish!
The fishing line was suddenly pulled, and the float quickly dived towards the bottom of the water.

Hooked!
Looks like a big guy!

Chen Shiping stood up excitedly, not even paying attention to Li Xiaoran next to him.

Li Xiaoran breathed a sigh of relief silently, thanking the fish for taking the bait.

Otherwise, you will be embarrassed to death.

While Chen Shiping was struggling with the fish, Li Xiaoran silently ran back to the cabin.

Leaning against the cabin, Li Xiaoran touched his face and felt it was hot.

Why were you so bold just now?

Why do you say that, like a bad woman seducing men!
Will Chen Shiping misunderstand that I am not a good girl?

It's over, what if he misunderstands me.

What if you think I am a very casual woman?
Li Xiaoran now wants to kill him head-on.

You must have been confused to say those words to Chen Shiping!
Li Xiaoran, who had just grown up, was embarrassed in front of the person she secretly loved and admired, which was a huge blow to her.

When Chen Shiping stood on the deck holding a one-meter-long fish and laughed happily, she just forced out an embarrassed smile.

I just hope that Chen Shiping can forget what he just said.

Until he returned to the hotel in the evening, Chen Shiping never mentioned the conversation on the ship.

Li Xiaoran breathed a sigh of relief and was glad that Chen Shiping had forgotten about him because he caught a fish.

In Chen Shiping's room, he couldn't help but shake his head when he thought of what Li Xiaoran said.

The little girl had a convulsion today.

Too proactive and bold.

How dare you even hint that you’re in bed!
This kind of girl is a ticking time bomb.

If you suddenly have a seizure one day and desperately seek life and death, you will be really numb.

Chen Shiping suddenly understood why many men liked popular young women.

Less risk, more fun!
If he were just a director or producer, perhaps his behavior would be more dissolute.

With different identities, the things you can do are naturally different.

Chen Shiping thought about it for a while and then forgot about it.

Let’s finish filming the movie quickly first!
I want to go home and see Xiao Baicai and my daughter.

When Chen Shiping started shooting seriously, time passed quickly.

In less than two weeks, I finished filming the hearing girl and returned to the capital.

After returning to the capital, Chen Shiping first delivered the materials to the factory and then rushed home immediately.

My name is Chen Xiulin, beautiful and refined, steep and graceful, full of vitality, high-spirited and endless!
It's not a very special name, but it is Chen Shiping's vision.

After returning home, Chen Shiping told Tao Huimin the name.

He was criticized several times by her, but he still used this name.

Chen Shiping teased his little girl, poked her little face and said, "Xiulin, call me daddy!"

Tao Huimin held back her laughter and shouted from behind while holding her throat.

"Dad~"

Chen Shiping was stunned. He jumped up and turned to look at Tao Huimin in surprise and said, "Did you hear her call me daddy?"

Tao Huimin suppressed a smile and nodded.

Chen Shiping laughed happily, and then suddenly realized, how could a child who was only a few months old talk?
Tao Huimin couldn't hold it back any longer and started laughing.

"Husband, you are so stupid! Haha!"

Chen Shiping: "." It's really stupid!

But we won’t admit that we are stupid!
"Dare to tease me! You're dead!"

Chen Shiping became angry and went up to scratch Tao Huimin's itchy flesh.

Tao Huimin laughed and begged for mercy. The baby lay on the bed with his head tilted and looked at them, babbling and laughing too.

After making trouble for a while, the family of three lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling.

Tao Huimin tilted his head and looked at Chen Shiping and said, "I have to go to work tomorrow."

"What class do you work in?" Chen Shiping asked strangely.

"Go to Water Margin City, Water Margin is on."

"What about the child?"

"I'll take it with me. I'll go there during the day and come back at night."

"No, I'm so young. How can I run with you?"

"Then let mom take it."

"What should I do if I'm hungry?!"

"Drink milk."

"The key is why you went to the Water Margin crew." Chen Shiping sat up and said in confusion: "It's not necessary!"

Tao Huimin begged and said: "I am sick at home, so just let me go."

"If you want to find something to do, you don't have to go to the Water Margin crew. You have to run to Chengde every day."

Chen Shiping thought for a while and said, "Wouldn't it be nice to film another TV series? The factory is also preparing for a new TV series."

Tao Huimin became interested and immediately asked: "What TV series?"

"Martial arts dramas, novels by Jin Yong, Liang Yusheng, and Gu Long can be adapted. The studio has more experience in martial arts dramas." "This is great! I'll go find Mei Juan tomorrow!"

After solving Tao Huimin's troubles, Chen Shiping also wanted to solve their common troubles.

From late pregnancy to now, I haven’t eaten cabbage for several months.

The cabbage is wilted and needs to be moistened.

After the two people looked at each other, they started to divide the work in a very tacit understanding.

Chen Shiping went to put out the water, drew the curtains and spread the sheets.

Tao Huimin coaxed little Xiulin to sleep and put her in the crib.

After the two of them finished their work, they looked at each other and immediately hugged each other and started chewing.

The sheets that had just been laid were instantly messy again.

A little separation is better than a newlywed.

Early the next morning, Chen Shiping drove Tao Huimin to the factory.

Chen Shiping went to deal with the backlog of work, while Tao Huimin went to the TV Drama Creation Center to find Mei Juan.

Filming martial arts dramas is a very good choice for the factory.

First of all, I have an audience base, and secondly, I have rich shooting experience.

The factory has produced many martial arts movies, but filming TV series is still simple.

Mei Juan has been reading novels during this time.

I'm still undecided about which novel to write.

There are dozens of works by Jin Yong, Gu Long, and Liang Yusheng.

Although some are not very famous, there are many who are famous together.

After Tao Huimin came over, he looked at so many novels and didn’t know what to choose.

"Didn't Shi Ping give you any advice?" Tao Huimin asked while turning the pages of Legend of the Condor Heroes.

Mei Juan shook her head, feeling completely uninspired.

People who read novels these days have become stupid.

Tao Huimin frowned and said, "Then choose the Condor Shooting. The righteousness of the family and the country are both important, and Guo Jing and Huang Rong are very famous themselves."

Upon hearing this, Mei Juan nodded immediately and said, "Okay, let's shoot the shooting of the Condor. When the director asked me about it, I said it was my wife who asked me to shoot it!"

Tao Huimin: "." Why does it feel like you are looking for someone to take the blame?

Chen Shiping has been busy in the office all morning.

After finishing some things in the factory, I went to work on the post-production of Hearing Girl.

Over in the editing room, Cheng Kaige is also doing the post-production of White Night Walk.

He finished the project at about the same time as Chen Shiping.

When Chen Shiping arrived in the editing room, he chatted with him for a while.

Chen Shiping felt that after filming White Night Journey, his understanding of movies was different from before.

He began to think about the audience rather than creating with self-centeredness.

I guess Cheng Kaige will never make a movie as self-aware as The Promise in the future.

Not to mention saying something that no one will understand within ten years.

When Chen Shiping chatted with him, he also found that he was very confident this time.

There was a sense of impatient urgency in his words.

"Are you going to participate in the film festival?" Cheng Kaige looked at Chen Shiping and asked.

Chen Shiping said with a smile: "Maybe I will attend Berlin, but time is a bit tight, I don't know if I can make it."

“You’re one Golden Bear away from a Grand Slam.”

Cheng Kaige nodded, but his tone seemed a little disappointed.

He plans to continue participating in Cannes, and also wants to compete on the same stage with Chen Shiping.

Chen Shiping saw his thoughts and said with a smile: "Awards and winning or losing are not important. I have always regarded movies as a tool. Don't be too obsessed with awards."

"You are different from me. You are pragmatic and only do things that are beneficial. I am different."

Cheng Kaige said with a smile and said: "Among the five generations of directors, you are an alternative."

Chen Shiping shrugged and said: "Among the directors in the world, I am considered an alternative."

"Haha, it's good that you are self-aware." Cheng Kaige laughed and stood up and left.

We still have to edit. Although we can’t compete with Chen Shiping on the same stage, there is still Zhang Yimou.

Cheng Kaige is sure that Zhang Yimo's goal next year will be Cannes.

Zhang Yimo is only one Palme d'Or away from winning a Grand Slam.

Cheng Kaige thought about himself and suddenly realized that he had fallen so far behind without even realizing it.

You have to catch up!
At this time, Zhang Yimo was still living in Shanghai.

Zhang Yimo turned on his computer relatively late.

This time, the filming continued until we reached Grandma Bridge. He was very particular about light and shadow art, so the shooting progress was very slow.

I often finish shooting a scene and have to shoot it again the next day.

Gong Li felt like she was working with Cheng Kaige again.

Zhang Yimo is so different this time from before.

Although Gong Li didn't ask, she knew why Zhang Yimo was like this.

Being tired of fame and fortune, winning the Grand Jury Prize is like winning the Best Film Award.

More importantly, Gong Li knew that he wanted to compete with Chen Shiping.

Men are all strange creatures, they like to compare everything!
The crew of Grandma Bridge was not at peace. During the filming, Gong Li took the initiative to announce her breakup with Zhang Zhang Yimou.

For a time, the national media was paying attention to their movies and romance, which made Zhang Yimou very upset, and his phone was buzzing!
In the mid-90s, there wasn’t that much gossip news in China.

The breakup of Zhang Yimo and Gong Li is a big event in the literary and art circles.

Reporters and media are paying close attention to it, and reporters are often watching outside the set of Grandma Bridge.

Chen Shiping also saw a lot of news.

Watching the media rush to report on Gong Li and Zhang Yi's love affair.

Chen Shiping couldn't even imagine what a lively scene it would be if one day it was revealed that he was having an extramarital affair.

It must be overwhelming news and follow-up reports.

So Chen Shiping is becoming more and more careful now.

Otherwise, Li Xiaoran would be in full bloom now!

In Shanghai at this time, Gong Li was wearing a cheongsam and holding a thin lady's cigarette in her hand.

Light smoke floated slowly, she narrowed her eyes and hummed softly.

The floating clouds disperse~The bright moon shines~
In Zhang Yimo's shots, Gong Li is extremely beautiful.

As the man who knows Gong Li best, he knows how to take pictures and can show the most beautiful side of Gong Li.

Looking at Gong Li in the camera, Zhang Yimo still felt some nostalgia and reluctance in his heart.

Compared with Zhang Yimo's nostalgia, Gong Li's performance was relatively free and easy.

To be precise, it's more like I want to finish filming this movie as soon as possible and get away from Zhang Yimo as soon as possible.

Just like little Jinbao in Grandma's Bridge trying to escape.

Little Jinbao is a canary in a cage.

Gong Li sometimes feels that she is quite similar to little Jinbao, just a canary of Zhang Yimo.

In the movie, Little Jinbao was brought out from the countryside by Boss Tang to become a singer in Shanghai, but little Jinbao also died in the hands of Boss Tang.

Finally, Mr. Tang took another little girl from the countryside to Shanghai.

Gong Li knew very well that after she broke up with Zhang Yimo, he would also find a girl to replace her.

The reason why Gong Li broke up and still wanted to make this movie was because she saw herself in little Jinbao.

We can even see the shadow of Chen Shiping in Mr. Song in the movie.

Shrewd, capable and lustful, he seduced little Jinbao and was eventually buried alive by Boss Tang.

Gong Li felt that this was Zhang Yimo's dark and dirty thoughts!
I just suspected that she was having an affair with Chen Shiping!
Gong Li now regrets not hating Zhang Yimo before breaking up.

Let him guess and think!
