Hello 1983

  Chapter 840 Okay, what a story! (seeking a monthly ticket)

   Liu Qingshan drove to Quanjude and entered the reserved box. Wang Fujun and his group had already arrived.

  As an intermediary, Director Zhang also came, accompanied by Actor Gong.

   These two are old acquaintances with Liu Qingshan, so they naturally greeted each other affectionately.

   Liu Qingshan asked Wu Tong to sit down next to actor Gong, and then introduced: "This is my fiancee Wu Tong."

   "Brother Qingshan, you are engaged, why don't you say hello, so we can join in?" Actor Gong enthusiastically tugged Wu Tong's arm, but he was envious in his heart.

  As for the reason, it's very simple. She and Director Zhang have always had a bad reputation.

   Look at Liu Qingshan again, if there is no comparison, there will be no harm.

  Just a few minutes after sitting down, when the door of the box opened, Lao Jiang’s long face appeared, his small eyes twitched twice, and he said hello: "Yes, I'm sorry, I'm a little late."

  Behind him, there is also leading a lady, who was the most popular Liu Xingxing before Actor Gong appeared.

  According to Lao Jiang's temperament, he must have come a long time ago, and I feel anxious.

   But Liu Mingxing stopped him and told him to hold it up, don't be in a hurry.

  Seeing Liu Mingxing behind Lao Jiang, even Wang Fujun was taken aback, and subconsciously stood up.

  Throughout the 1980s, Liu Xingxing was definitely at the level of a queen.

  Seeing this big star, Wang Fujun has more confidence in making movies.

   On the other hand, Song Lei and the others didn't have much feeling for celebrities.

  Director Zhang naturally introduced to both parties, Lao Jiang just kept nodding, but Liu Mingxing talked and laughed at Yan Yan, who had both ways.

  She is older than Lao Jiang, and their relationship is probably similar to that of Director Zhang.

   Liu Mingxing was full of enthusiasm, and he threw himself on Lao Jiang, but Lao Jiang didn't know what to think, and he never gave him an explanation, and then he walked away.

   When introducing Liu Qingshan, Lao Jiang and Liu Mingxing were very polite.

  Now Liu Qingshan is very famous in the entertainment circle. Although he is not known to the public in China, everyone in the circle knows this great man.

  The most powerful thing is that they basically don't play much in China, they like to make troubles in Hollywood, and they really make a name for themselves, you have to admire it.

  After all were seated, the three ladies were naturally next to each other. The two celebrities didn't have the airs of being a celebrity here, and they chatted very affectionately with Wu Tong.

   Faintly, these two stars are still very envious of Wu Tong.

  Everyone is here, and the dishes are starting to be served one after another. When we arrive at Quanjude, of course we have to eat roast duck.

  Because there were a lot of people, I ordered several ducks.

   Everyone chatted while eating. Of course, this is not the time to talk about serious business, so we have to finish eating.

  Lao Jiang was in a hurry, and he didn't taste much of a meal.

   On the contrary, Liu Qingshan had already made up his mind, so he was not in a hurry, and ate the roast duck happily.

   I have something to talk about later, so I didn't drink much. After I was full, I got to the point.

  Liu Qingshan didn't say a word, he didn't plan to get too involved in this matter in advance.

  Old Jiang couldn't bear it for a long time, and now he took out the revised script and started talking.

  Song Lei and the others looked at the script, and they felt very right, as if it was written about their youth.

  Wang Fujun was also elated by Lao Jiang, and basically confirmed the investment in his heart, but he still needs to learn more about it:

   "Director Jiang, what is the investment budget for our movie?"

"one…"

  Old Jiang opened his mouth to report 10 million, but someone stepped on the sole of his foot under the table.

   is his girlfriend, who is worried that Lao Jiang will open his mouth wide and scare people away.

   "One, the total budget is four million." Lao Jiang also changed the subject immediately, blinked his small eyes twice, and reported the figure.

  Others didn't care, because Lao Jiang stuttered a little when he usually spoke.

  But Liu Qingshan knew the details, and couldn't help laughing inwardly: two four million can't beat it.

  Lao Jiang has a characteristic of filming, that is, he will be dazzled as soon as he shoots a film. Sometimes in order to shoot a satisfactory shot, he will go back and forth to shoot dozens or even hundreds of times, which is commonplace.

  That's why some people say that he is the director who consumes the most film.

  This kind of spirit is a good thing for the works; but it is not so beautiful for the investors.

  That Wang Fujun didn't know Lao Jiang's temper, so there might be a fight between the two of them in the future.

  As soon as he heard that 4 million was still the national currency, Wang Fujun immediately smiled and said calmly, "It's absolutely fine."

  The total value of the inheritance he inherited is about 50 million U.S. dollars. After removing half of the real estate, there are still more than 20 million U.S. dollars, which can be hundreds of millions in Huaxia coins.

  Four million, a piece of cake.

  Old Jiang was overjoyed: "Wang, Mr. Wang, don't worry, I will definitely make an award-winning film for you!"

   Liu Mingxing also picked up the wine cup: "Mr. Wang, and everyone, I wish us a happy cooperation."

  The atmosphere is still good, just like young men and women who have just started dating, everything is good.

   After a long contact, the shortcomings of each other will gradually appear.

  Liu Qingshan is just watching the show right now, and he doesn't want to participate deeply.

   It should not be said that it is taking over, but cleaning up the mess.

  The next step is to discuss the details, which is naturally dominated by Wang Fujun's brilliant entertainment.

  Liu Qingshan's film and television city side is to provide venues and catering, as well as provide group performances, which belong to the role of playing side drums.

  Seeing that Lao Jiang and Wang Fujun had a good chat, they talked about the specific casting. Anyway, Liu Qingshan had already eaten and drank enough, so he got up and left, leaving Wang Zhan here to socialize with those people.

  Everyone stood up and said a few polite words. In the end, Director Zhang and Actor Gong sent Liu Qingshan and Wu Tong outside the door.

   "Brother Qingshan, I heard that the Matrix filmed by your Hurricane Film and Video Company was a great success, congratulations."

  Director Zhang sincerely congratulates Liu Qingshan. He doesn't know when the film he made will enter Hollywood, or even be shot in Hollywood.

  Liu Qingshan's heart moved, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Brother Zhang, are you interested in going to Hollywood?"

  Director Zhang's face full of vicissitudes of time immediately flushed red, and he grabbed Liu Qingshan's arm suddenly: "Brother, what do you think, tell me quickly?"

  Liu Qingshan looked around, it was dark outside, and this is not a place to talk about things, so he said with a smile: "Then let's go to my house and sit down."

   "Good!" Director Zhang didn't hesitate at all.

   "Do you want to go back and say hello before leaving?" Actor Gong was careful and worried that the group inside would be dissatisfied.

  Director Zhang waved his hand: "Don't worry about them."

  Is there anything more important than entering Hollywood?

   Four people got into Liu Qingshan's car, and when the car started, Director Zhang, who was sitting in the co-pilot, chatted:

   "Brother Qingshan, you don't seem to be very enthusiastic about watching the movie I just talked about?"

  Director Zhang knows Liu Qingshan's background, and each of the movies produced in the United States has a box office of hundreds of millions.

  In the end, he got mixed up with the boss Wang Fujun, and he was willing to play a supporting role, which is a bit abnormal.

  Liu Qingshan smiled: "I'm still very optimistic about this movie."

   The answer was a bit out of line, so Director Zhang stopped continuing this topic.

  The two of them gradually talked about Dashuxia Entertainment Company. Director Zhang has always been curious. Dashuxia is doing well in music, why not get involved in the film and television industry?

   "It's very simple. It's not profitable to engage in film and television now." Liu Qingshan is straightforward. He and Director Zhang are considered old friends, so there is no need to hide these things.

  Director Zhang showed a smile on his serious face. Of course, he is convinced in this respect. In terms of making money, all the directors in China combined may not be able to catch up with the young man in front of him.

   Liu Qingshan said while driving: "But it's coming soon, the general environment is getting better and better, we are also preparing to enter under the big tree, and we will start TV dramas first."

  As soon as he heard about TV dramas, Director Zhang lost interest.

   Liu Qingshan continued: "I think in the United States, indoor sitcoms are quite popular. The investment is small and the scenes are simple. There is no precedent for this in China, but you can try it."

  As for sitcoms, Director Zhang doesn't have much experience in sitcoms, so it's not easy to express his opinions, so he just nodded slightly, obviously not very optimistic.

  Liu Qingshan also smiled and said nothing, he was going to call Dashuxia Company to try the sitcom I Love My Family first.

  But before that, it is necessary to gather several main creators together, such as Master Shuo, Dandan’s ex-husband Xiaoyingzi, and most importantly, Liang Wenshi who provided the script.

  As long as these few people get together, it will basically be stable.

  The problem now is that Liu Qingshan is not familiar with these people, so he needs to find a starting point.

  Director Zhang is definitely willing to help, but he is not in the same way as those people from the capital, so Liu Qingshan didn't mention it.

  He pondered to see if he could talk to Liang Wenshi first through Shu Shu's relationship, after all, this is the backbone.

   After a while, we arrived at the old house in Shijia Hutong.

  Liu Qingshan walked through the side door, where the car can be driven in directly.

  Getting out of the car and being in the compound of the deep house, Director Zhang and actor Gong felt like Grandma Liu who entered the Grand View Garden for the first time.

   "Qingshan, you have caught up with the former Prince Baylor!"

  Actor Gong clicked his tongue, looked at Wu Tong beside him, his eyes were a little more envious.

  Director Zhang was also full of praise: "This house is good, better than buildings, Qingshan, it cost a lot of money to buy this house, right?"

  Liu Qingshan smiled: "This is left by my grandma's generation, it can be regarded as the ancestral house."

  While talking, they arrived at the study room, Wang Xiaobing and Cao Xiaofei, one was busy making tea, and the other was bringing seasonal fruits.

  In this era, fruits can only be eaten when they are in season. Now this month, they are cherries and apricots.

  Looking at the quaint study room, Director Zhang is envious. It must be a very pleasant thing if he can create at his desk here?

  Wu Tong and Actor Gong were eating fruit and chatting in low voices, while the two men were talking about business.

  Liu Qingshan picked up a magazine from the desk, opened it, and handed it to Director Zhang: "Read this article first, I think it's good."

   Groups of wives and concubines?

   Director Zhang looked at the title and was a little puzzled, but he started reading anyway, but after reading it, he couldn't stop.

  On a quiet summer night, under the soft light, in the room, only two ladies were whispering.

  Liu Qingshan, on the other hand, ate the cherries in a leisurely manner, and looked at Director Zhang who had already got into the book with a smile.

Snapped!

  Suddenly, Director Zhang patted the table, then stood up abruptly: "Okay, what a good story!"

  The two girls were taken aback by him, and then looked at each other and smiled again.

  After reading it in one breath, Director Zhang seemed to be a different person, becoming extremely excited, and began to circle around the study room, chanting:

   "I want to film this story, and it must be filmed."

  Actor Gong looked at Director Zhang with tenderness in his eyes. In her eyes, the man at this moment exudes infinite charm, which makes her obsessed.

  Liu Qingshan knew that when Director Zhang saw this story, he would definitely have this reaction, because according to the original history, Director Zhang would prepare to shoot this movie this year, but the name was changed to "Raise the Red Lantern".

  The origin of the name is written in the book. The rich man has several concubines, and he will hang a red lantern in front of the door of which room he wants to spend the night in.

   And this type of story is absolutely irresistible to Director Zhang.

   "Brother Zhang, you may have a chance to win the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

  Hearing this, Director Zhang was a little discouraged, because his film "Ju Dou" was nominated for this award, but he didn't win in the end, which made him very unwilling.

  Liu Qingshan continued to laugh and said: "Brother Zhang, you have to have confidence. In fact, the Oscars also have to do public relations with the awards committee."

  Liu Qingshan knew that this movie was only nominated again.

   But the reason is not because the film itself is not good enough, but because the public relations are not in place.

  If Baofengyingyin went out, I believe it should be able to settle most of the judges.

   Director Zhang's eyes were full of fighting spirit again: "Okay, brother Qingshan, let's join hands to make a big deal!"

  He knows Liu Qingshan's current status in Hollywood. If Liu Qingshan helps, the success rate is still very high.

   "Okay, this time we under the big tree are responsible for the investment, and Brother Zhang is in charge of the filming." Liu Qingshan was also straightforward, and directly extended his hand to give Director Zhang a high five.

  The two women in the room also looked at their respective men with love in their eyes.

   Men at this moment are the most attractive to women.

   But Actor Gong's eyes gradually dimmed: the more outstanding a man is, the more he looks like a wild horse on the grassland, which is hard to control.

  She secretly glanced at Wu Tong beside her, feeling a deep sense of envy in her heart.

  When Director Zhang and the others were sent away, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening, and Director Zhang also took away the Harvest magazine, as if holding a baby.

  Wu Tong became very active today, holding Liu Qingshan's arm, walking towards the bedroom under the moonlight.

  The weight of her whole body seems to be supported by Liu Qingshan.

   Walking to the door of the bedroom, Wu Tong suddenly looked up, then leaned against Liu Qingshan's ear, exhaling like blue:

   "Sanfeng, every night from now on, we must hang red lanterns here."

  Although it was a love story, when Liu Qingshan heard it, it made him vigilant: no matter which woman, he would not want other women to share love with him.

  Life is short, but love is long. In this life, I can only love one woman.

  It seems that he was too greedy before, Liu Qingshan had already made a certain decision in his heart, he hugged Wu Tong by the waist:

   "Okay, I promise you!"
