Chapter 201 Give me a dance


    "oh?"


    Wang Yang was stunned for a moment, then his mind caught up with Chen Qi''s thoughts, and he smiled and said, "That''s it, that''s it."


    He didn''t care about Li Lianjie, so he didn''t continue to ask. He just said, "I see that you are busy these days and don''t have any helpers. How much work can you do by yourself?"


    "It''s not that I don''t want to find help, it''s that there is no suitable one..."


    Chen Qi showed a bit of exhaustion in front of the old man and said: "There are two dramas that must be done this year, one is "Tai Chi 2" and the other is a North American special film co-produced with the Great Wall.


    The original cast of "Tai Chi 2", everyone has experience in the first part, and will be more proficient in the second part, so I can give it a break.


    I have to watch the entire North American special video, otherwise they really don’t know what I’m going to do. "


    "Going to Hong Kong to shoot?"


    "right!"


    "oh…"


    Wang Yang nodded and said, "Actually, I don''t even know what you want to do. It''s like someone forced something into your head, and no one else has it.


    By the way, have you published your magazine? "


    "Not yet, no time at all."


    Chen Qi sighed and said: "The company''s funds are entirely dependent on film repayments. The cycle is long, and I have to film more. If I am not careful, the capital chain will be broken.


    I need to have extra financial resources, but there are many restrictions, so I insist on doing magazines. Magazines are currently the easiest.


    Also, if my two films fail, the company will disappear in the blink of an eye, and I will have to sit on the bench... When outsiders see me running a company, they only know that I am favored by divine grace, so how can they understand my difficulties? "


    “…”


    Wang Yang understood this and patted the boy on the shoulder. It was easiest to follow the path traveled by predecessors, but it was hardest to break out of a new path.


    "Let''s not talk about it anymore. I have almost finished the filming plan for "Tai Chi 2" and will give it to you tomorrow. This scene is bigger than the first one. There is a group battle scene with more than 100 people, and I still need your support. "


    "It''s a grand scene with just over a hundred people?"


    "Wow, this is a martial arts movie. How do you compare it to military movies?"


    Chen Qi rolled his eyes.


    Mainland China''s military films are of great quality, but for some reason few people mention it. There was "Southern Conquest, Northern War" in the past, and thousands of troops were used to film it. This is just a trivial matter.


    Later, the unprecedented "Armageddon" mobilized 130,000 soldiers and various supplies including 160 tons of explosives, 50 tanks, 100 explosive cars, and more than 1.7 million empty shells...


    With this foundation, who can see more than a hundred people fighting?


    But it''s different in Hong Kong. If Hong Kong can create a scene involving a crowd of more than a hundred people fighting, it will be famous in the sky.


    …


    When Chen Qi went to Hangzhou, Li Wenhua was already making preparations. The two met and the lineup of "Tai Chi 2" is as follows:


    Yang Yuqian-Li Lianjie, Chen Shaomei-Gong Xue, Chen Shaojie-Wang Qun, Prince Rong-Liu Xun, maid Xiaotao-Huang Qiuyan, Chen Zhengying-Yu Hai, these are the decent side and basically remain unchanged.


    The red light shines on one side: Our Lady of Yellow Lotus - Ge Chunyan, the two-faced Bodhisattva - He Qing and Tao Huimin.


    The Boxer Rebellion is very complicated. It has a positive side and a negative side. It needs to be viewed dialectically. Chen Qi set up two kinds of teams, one is a foreigner team, and the other is a lawless and kind-hearted team.


    Ji Chunhua plays the role of Yurou Liangshan, the second villain.


    The main villain, Nalan Yuanshu-Zhen Zidan.


    Tan Sitong-Da Shichang, yes, it is the same Da Shichang who just won the Hundred Flowers Best Actor, an actor from Shanghai Film Studio. He played this role in the 1984 movie "Tan Sitong".


    Chen Qi deliberately obscured other historical figures, passing by Cixi and Yuan Shikai, and setting up Nalan Yuanshu as a villain who betrayed his trust and arrested Tan Sitong.


    This focuses the contradiction on Yang Yuqian and Nalan Yuanshu.


    "Tai Chi 2" is not a historical film, it is a martial arts film. History is just a background that adds a sense of gravity. It needs to be decorated with good-looking fighting scenes to make it popular.


    By the time we get to the third part, Yang Yuqian will be fighting foreigners.


    There should be no more than three films, otherwise the audience will be bored. Chen Qi plans to finish the trilogy, then switch to modern action films, and shoot them for a few more years. When period films become popular again, he will switch back.


    The film market is like this, with ups and downs, and constant reincarnation.


    The budget of "Tai Chi 2" is 1.5 million to 1.8 million, and all aspects have been enhanced. Some scenes have to be shot in Hong Kong, which requires foreigners.


    Where do foreign actors come from in mainland China these days?


    The foreigners in "Tai Chi 1" are from the XJ brothers, who put on makeup and beards to make do. There are so many foreigners in the second part that they can''t be fooled, so they have to be genuine.


    The plan was reported to Wang Yang, and they were coordinated and prepared in an orderly manner, and the production would start in the second half of the year. It can be said that everything is ready, all that is left is Li Lianlian.


    Chen Qi didn''t tell him when he came back and kept him dry for a few more days.


    …


    Gong Xue won the double award, but was not assigned a building with a flush toilet. She still lived in the Tongzi Building and listened to people calling for bed.


    But she really felt the benefits of being "the most popular in mainland China". When she took the bus, someone bought her a ticket, and when she went to the store to queue up, she became the first one to give way to her. Everywhere she went, she was noticed and saluted...


    Although it happened before, it was not as frequent as now.


    At this moment, she was in the room, carefully wiping the two trophies and putting them away carefully. Then she heard the familiar knock signal and hurriedly ran to open the door.


    "Little Embarrassing~"


    戆戦, pronounced in "Ganggang", in Shanghainese dialect, means a woman acting coquettishly and calling the other person a fool.


    "If you call me Kuan Kui again, I will call you Kui Kui (Silly Sister)!"


    "How dare you!"


    "Why don''t I dare? I also learn Shanghainese!"


    "snort!"


    She wrinkled her nose and reached out for a hug. Chen Qi also held her waist, picked her up and kissed her again and again. When the two of them came back, they were supposed to have a good get-together, but it turned out that they were both busy, so they had some free time now.


    It took a long time to separate.


    "What are you doing yourself?"


    "I''m polishing the trophy. Look, how beautiful they look together!"


    Another utility cabinet was added to the room. At the top of the cabinet, on the left is the trophy of the Goddess of Flowers, on the right is a golden rooster, and two other certificates are standing upright. Gong Xue rubbed it gently, then suddenly picked up a certificate and opened it. There was a letter inside.


    "By the way, I received a letter from Mr. Xia (Xia Yan) yesterday."


    "Handwritten?"


    "Yeah, yeah, I''m so excited."


    "Oh my god, in a few decades these will all be cultural relics..."


    Chen Qi was very interested in this. He opened it and took a look. It was either a gridded letter paper or a piece of white paper. It was written casually with a brush and had to be read vertically from right to left.


    There are some words of congratulations at the front, and at the back it says: "You are in your prime and have a bright future. I hope you will make greater and more contributions to the revival and progress of China''s film industry!"


    "Wow!"


    Chen Qi was a little envious. He had been around for two years and didn''t even have an inscription by a famous person.


    I''ll go to Haizi tomorrow to get one.


    Gong Xue carefully collected the letter, stroked her chest and said, "I''m under so much pressure right now. What if I screw up the next part of the show? What if the audience doesn''t like it? What if I''m scolded for my reputation? It''s all about getting awards, so it''s not as good as that. Don’t take it.”


    "You''re going against your will. Who doesn''t want to win a prize?"


    "I''m serious! I didn''t expect that I could get it. Oh, that''s right..."


    Gong Xue suddenly pulled him and asked him to sit on the sofa. He stood in front of him and said seriously: "I was speaking on the stage. I wanted to thank you alone. Unfortunately, I didn''t have the chance. I will tell you now."


    "Do you want it to be so formal?" Chen Qi laughed.


    "Be serious! Let me tell you now, without your guidance and help, I would never be able to achieve what I am today. This honor is mine, and it is yours. I will work hard to live up to your expectations. , thank you, little Chou~"


    After saying that, she started laughing herself.


    "Hey, you just say thank you with your mouth?"


    "What do you want?"


    Gong Xue was on guard.


    whispering sound!


    Chen Qi pouted and said, "You were dancing too far away on the stage and I didn''t see it clearly. You can dance for me alone."
