Middle Age: A Leisurely Life in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 422 Blue sky, sea, beach and sunshine
Zhang Yang really thought so.

On the way back, the substitute driver was driving the car. He was slightly drunk, squinting his eyes and leaning on the back of the chair, thinking of his dead father and the little things that happened during his lifetime.

Think of those tear-jerking plots in the script again.

The second brother-in-law, who couldn't bear the shame, still had a sense of honor and self-esteem as a worker, so he could only stay at home without a job and had nowhere to go;

Wang Gong, an intellectual engineer who stayed in Russia, always regarded himself as a worker and tried his best to keep the chimney of the factory;

Chen Guilin can also play the piano well, and Shuxian has a good voice. They formed a performance band and sang everywhere.
Some things he has seen with his own eyes, and some things he has only heard, but this is all history.

Although it has been dusty for a long time, as the children of this generation of laid-off workers, it is necessary to show it again for everyone to see.

That's it!
I want to shoot even if I spend money!
Zhang Yang suddenly opened his eyes and slammed his fist on the car, startling the young driver who was concentrating on driving.

"Crazy! Isn't it just a Maybach?! What's the big deal?!" The young man cursed secretly, but he didn't dare to say it.

Yu Dongqing didn't care about it anymore.

Yu Tongtong has already had the summer vacation. This year, she has no summer homework at the beginning of her junior year. The little girl had a bad cola, and just after the holiday, she yelled at her aunt to take her to Beidaihe to play.

She felt more and more that begging my aunt was much easier than begging my father.

Sure enough, Mingmei agreed.

Of course, how could she not pull Yu Dongqing?
Now she can't wait for the two of them to be tired of being together for 24 hours.

Yu Dongqing didn't want to go on such a hot day.

Staying at home on a hot day with the air conditioner on, going out for a stroll at night, or riding a small pedal to the courtyard of Liu Yimin’s house to enjoy the cool and brag and chat. How cool is it to drink some draft beer when you’re interested?
But my precious daughter and fiancee are going to Beidaihe by car, how can I not go?I am also worried that the two beauties, one big and one small, will not be safe on the road.

Go ahead.

Give up his life to accompany the gentleman.

No, accompany the beauty.

However, he put forward his opinion: "Let's not go to Beidaihe, but to Nandaihe. Now there are people everywhere when we go out, and there are slightly fewer people in Nandaihe."

Of course, Mingmei has no objection either.

As long as you follow your beloved brother-in-law, you can go anywhere.

Yu Tongtong has no objection either, as long as she goes out to play, she can go anywhere.

So early this morning, the family packed up their luggage, Yu Dongqing drove a Mercedes-Benz, left Yanjing, got on the Beijing-Harbin Expressway, and headed east.

Nandaihe is located in the east of QHD urban area. It is separated from Daihe in the northeast by the seaside of Beibei Daihe and is connected by a bridge.

Across the Dai River, there are far fewer tourists, which is exactly what Yu Dongqing meant.

Yu Dongqing played in Nandaihe for three days.

The first day, the beach.

The next day, the beach.

On the third day, the beach.

Why not go to the beach or go to the beach? Go to the scenic spots?What are you doing at the beach?
Live in the Times Coast Seaview Hotel, the window is the sea.

This afternoon, Yu Dongqing wore swimming trunks and swam a few laps in the sea, lying under a parasol on the beach, wearing sunglasses, drinking fruit juice, watching Mingmei and Yu Tongtong playing in the sea from afar.

One big and one small beauties are very seductive, why don't there be men around peeking at them?

Fortunately, both of them were wearing relatively conservative two-section swimsuits.

Blue sky, sea, beach, sunshine.

Well, everything is so beautiful.

At this moment, the phone rang, and Yu Dongqing answered it as soon as she saw it was Zhang Yang.

"Holly, what are you doing?"

"He Mingmei took Tongtong to play in Nandaihe. It's a nice place. How about you? Where have you been? Going abroad. Didn't you want to go to Australia a while ago?"

"I don't have your life, I'm as busy as a dog."

"Are you busy? About the piano business? Is my sister-in-law busy? You are just a hands-off shopkeeper." Yu Dongqing sneered mercilessly.

"It's not about the piano shop, it's about filming!" Zhang Yang poured out his bitterness to Yu Dongqing on the phone.

It turned out that after Zhang Yang got Yu Dongqing's script, he started to make this film, and first found Li Wan.

The two met through Yu Dongqing's filming, and they can be regarded as friends.

In Li Wan's studio, Zhang Yang cut straight to the point and hoped that Li Wan could be the producer of this film, and at the same time help find a suitable director, after all, he has a lot of resources in his hands.

Li Wan was very surprised after reading the script.

"What's the matter? Not long ago, Wang Dongsheng said he was going to make a film about laid-off workers. Why are you here to join in the fun?"

Li Wan is not Yu Dongqing, and the relationship is not that close, so Zhang Yang doesn't want to tell the real reason, but he is interested and wants to shoot.

"I'll vote for the money! You just need to be the producer, and at the same time find me a suitable director, and you must make a good film!"

But Li Wan shook his head.

"The subject matter of your script is quite sensitive. Although the plot content is not as bold as Wang Dongsheng's, it's easy to step on the line if the director can't control it, and it won't pass the review. More importantly, it won't make money!"

"Aren't you a group of friends who specialize in making literary films without considering the box office? Help me find someone who is capable, and he might win an award!"

Li Wan didn't want to take this job at first, but because of the face, he had to help him find a relatively reliable director. When he heard that he didn't need to consider the box office and just make movies, there were still a few directors who were willing to give it a try.

But once the two parties got in touch, some directors felt that the subject matter was too old-fashioned and didn't want to shoot it, while some Zhang Yang felt that the other party was not good enough, so they talked too much.

I don't need you to sell miserably, don't engage in some obscure "literary style", the purpose is to go to foreign countries to win awards, as long as you film according to the script seriously.

It doesn't matter if you win the prize or not.

and also
The budget is 6000 million?

I want to do business at a loss, but I'm not stupid!
I contacted several directors, but they didn't reach an agreement, so I called Yu Dongqing to complain.

"Actually, Dongqing, you're right. The main reason is that the subject matter is too old and the story happened a long time ago. No one is interested, not even those directors who like to make literary films." There was a bitterness in Zhang Yang's tone.

Yu Dongqing was silent.

In the original time and space, this film was released around 2010. At that time, it was only more than ten years after the wave of workers being laid off, and some people may remember it.

But now more than ten years have passed, the people of that generation are all old, and even many have passed away, and the story has long been a distant memory.

"Zhang Yang, look for it first. If you really can't find a suitable director, let it go first. After Mingmei and I get married, how about I come to shoot?"

"Ha, it really is a good buddy." Zhang Yang was happy: "Okay, I will look for it again, if I can't find you, I will come to you. Don't worry, you and Mingmei's honeymoon will not be delayed."

The two chatted for a few words, Yu Dongqing hung up the phone, and saw Mingmei and Yu Tongtong walking over happily holding hands.

Yu Dongqing hurriedly took the bath towels and put on one for each of them.

Each of them had a glass of juice, and the two sat comfortably on the beach chairs to rest.

"Brother-in-law, who called just now?" Mingmei asked casually.

"It's public." Yu Dongqing briefly explained what happened.

Mingmei thought for a while, then suddenly said, "Brother-in-law, I can recommend a director to Brother Zhang Yang."

"Who?"

"It's my senior sister Li Fen that we met at the party that day."
