Chapter 141 Great Beauty
Gong Xue knew that Yang Jie was older than Wang Chongqiu, but she didn''t expect that he was so much older. He asked, "Then how did you get together back then?"
"We are in the same unit. He is a cameraman and I am a director. We have a lot of overlap in work. I didn''t think about it at first, why would a young man in his 20s want me, right? Later, when we got along, it was quite cool. suitable.
I''m not afraid of your jokes. I know that I have a strong personality, but Chongqiu happens to be soft-tempered and listens to me in everything. I feel very good about this! "
Yang Jie said.
"Then no one objects?"
"What do you think? You should ask if anyone supports..."
Yang Jie was filled with emotion as she reminisced, saying: "I didn''t agree at that time. The leaders of my work unit were opposed to it, my friends were opposed to it, and my parents had already left me with a younger sister. My younger sister was even more opposed to it because she is older than Chongqiu.
There are also gossips around me, saying that I am an old cow eating young grass, whether I am looking for a lover or a son, and that Chongqiu is fawning over me and is interested in my background... It is all nonsense. What background do I have?
Anyway, it''s just a denunciation, but I have a strong personality. The more I''m not allowed to do something, the more I do it. I don''t care about them! After so many years, I sometimes think, I am getting older and older, Chongqiu is still in his prime, if I had..."
Yang Jie paused, then suddenly shook her hand and said with a smile: "Forget it, don''t mention this anymore!"
When she said something, Gong Xue''s face turned pale. At this moment, Chen Qi and Wang Chongqiu came back with four large pots filled with hot water and asked, "What are we talking about?"
"Let''s talk about our itinerary. I want to visit Shanghai Film Studio, Shanghai Opera, Song and Dance Troupe, and Folk Art Troupe first, and then go for a walk in Zhejiang. Will you follow us?" Yang Jie asked.
"I''ll go with you. I have to go to Zhejiang to watch "Shaolin Temple". After watching it, I''ll go back by myself."
"That''s okay, then you stay in the guest house with us."
Chen Qi turned around and saw that Gong Xue looked wrong and asked, "What''s wrong with you?"
"It''s a bit uncomfortable. I''ll go to the aisle and stand for a while."
Gong Xue got up and passed over.
It''s winter now, the windows are closed, and it''s cold in the car. It''s really uncomfortable.
Time on the train was always fast and slow. The four of them ate and chatted, and occasionally slept for a while. The sky quickly darkened. It was pitch dark outside, and the light in the carriage was also dim. It stopped at every stop, and the passengers went up and down, starting, stopping, separating, and getting together, just like the various situations in life.
Yang Jie leaned on Wang Chongqiu''s shoulder and fell asleep again. Wang Chongqiu tilted his head back and was also in a daze.
At this time, Chen Qi was grateful to his young body for being able to fight and survive. If he were a disabled middle-aged man in his previous life, staying up all night would have been fatal.
He took out his thermos cup, which contained amber liquid with a faint sweet fragrance, and whispered: "Here you go."
"What?"
"Just a little honey water, don''t let them drink it."
"You, you, are so thoughtful."
"Resources are scarce. Drink it quickly. It won''t be good if you keep this stuff for a long time."
Gong Xue took it and took a small taste. It was warm when she poured it in, and it is still warm now. She just felt that it was sweet and delicious, and the sugar could make people happy. She drank half of it and felt a lot more comfortable, and said : "You drink it."
"You don''t drink anymore?"
"Well, this cup is quite filling, but I can''t drink any more."
Chen Qi took it over again, deliberately pointed at the rim of the cup where her lips were touching, and said, "Who added sugar to it? I remember it''s not so sweet!"
Gong Xue glared at him, looked at Yang Jie and Wang Chongqiu who were still sleeping, and whispered: "How many days will you stay?"
"Three days in Shanghai at most, and then I''ll go to Zhejiang for two days, and then I''ll go back. By the way, why don''t you invite me to your home?" he said.
"You want to go?"
"Forget it if you don''t come. Since you are here, you have to visit anyway."
“…”
Gong Xue twisted her clothes and was silent for a long time. After a while, she said: "I didn''t tell my family before. Suddenly, I was afraid that something bad would happen. I think it''s best to make a transition."
"I know what you mean."
"Um…"
Gong Xue felt a little sorry for him and took the initiative to hold his hand under the table.
...We arrived in Shanghai first.
Chen Qi and Yang Jie went everywhere to choose actors.
No matter what era, resources will always be concentrated in big cities. In this era, the literary and art circles in Beijing and Shanghai are like hidden dragons and crouching tigers. There are many art schools, and the younger generation is also the leader.
In just two days, he saw four beauties: Zhao Jing, Zhou Jie, Dong Zhizhi, and Li Jianqun. (Picture attached at the end of the article)
Zhao Jing is 23 years old. She is an actor at the Shanghai Film Studio. She has studied Peking Opera and Henan Opera. Her masterpieces are "Love in the Pen" and "Red Dresses on the Street", but she is still a newcomer now. Historically, she and Gong Xue were both the golden flowers of Shanghai Film Studio, and they were also filming in later generations. They had delicate features and graceful temperament.
Zhou Jie is 19 years old and Dong Zhizhi is 20 years old. They are both from the Shanghai Song and Dance Theater and one of the top beauties in the 1980s.
Zhou Jie has filmed "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace", "Under the Curtain" and "Yang Guifei". She is also quite successful in dancing. She has been the lead dancer in two Spring Festival Galas and later went to the United States to open a dance school. Her temperament can be classical or foreign, and her image very good.
Dong Zhizhi is purely classically beautiful. She filmed the TV series "Xi Shi" and retired relatively early.
As for Li Jianqun, it was entirely Chen Qi''s excuse to suggest it. Because she was studying in the stage design department of the Shanghai Theater Academy, it was impossible for Yang Jie to go to the stage design department to recruit people.
She was still confused when she was called over.
Yang Jie introduced himself first, and then this guy came over and said with a smile: "Let me meet you, my name is Chen Qi."
"The screenwriter of "Lushan Love"?"
Li Jianqun was quite surprised.
"You know me?"
"I read some information in a magazine."
Li Jianqun took a closer look and saw that he was really young.
Yang Jie started to ask some basic questions and found out that she was 23 years old and from Wuhan. She studied dancing when she was a child. She switched to art after being injured. She would graduate next year and had no performance experience.
But Yang Jie felt that she had a very good temperament, especially her eyes that seemed to be undulating with water, giving her a pitiful feeling.
To put it bluntly, it''s just a bit bitter. Qin Xianglian is not able to express herself freely. Her stereotype is that of a bitter woman who cries. If she had been cast in another image, the audience might not be able to accept her.
"Are you interested in acting? I mean, I may not choose you, but I think you have good looks and temperament, so you may have this opportunity." Yang Jie finally asked.
"acting…"
Li Jianqun was about to graduate. He was thinking about which unit he would be assigned to. He did not consider filming. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "If you give me this opportunity, I am very willing to participate."
"Well, please leave your contact information, including at home, so that I can find you."
After chatting for a while, Li Jianqun said goodbye, and Chen Qi came over to shake hands and said with a smile: "You majored in art. I hope we have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."
"Thank you for your consideration."
After she left, Yang Jie asked curiously: "You seem to attach great importance to her?"
"There are many beautiful women, but too few are truly talented. Of course we must pay attention to them!"
Chen Qi smiled.
Li Jianqun is acceptable as an actor, but he is awesome as a costume designer. He has been responsible for the costume design of "Concubine Yang", "Emperor Tang Ming", "Wu Zetian", "Kangxi Dynasty", "Taiping Heavenly Kingdom" and so on.
Especially the first three films are the pinnacle of Tang Yun in domestic film and television dramas!
There has never been such a good Tang Dynasty drama since.
Chen Qi''s collecting habit relapsed, and he really wanted to bring her into his team, so he encouraged Yang Jie to let her play Qin Xianglian. Only if you play Qin Xianglian can you go to the capital, and only if you go to the capital can you have a chance to cheat.
And when I went to the theater, I accidentally discovered an actor named Wang Bozhao, the little white dragon in "Journey to the West", the one who was later beaten by Nicholas Tse and Nick Cheung.
Yang Jie thinks he is handsome, frivolous, and has a peach blossom vibe, which makes him a perfect match for Chen Shimei.
Chen Qi completely agrees!
He didn''t want Zhang Tielin to play Chen Shimei. Chen Shimei was the male protagonist, and Zhang Tielin was almost enough to play the male protagonist''s lewd thief...
