Chapter 467: Lots of Talents
The winter jasmine flowers in Lechunfang are in bloom.
Chen Qi came back and stood outside the wall looking at the flowers for a while.
It will take a while for the two vans to be picked up. One is placed at the Beijing Film Studio and the other is placed here. The edge of Courtyard No. 6 is next to the street, so there is just room to park. There is no such thing as a ticket these days, just stop at will.
"Teacher Chen, I have your official letter!"
As soon as he walked in, Dai Hanhan, the director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, handed him a file bag.
Chen Qi took it apart and saw that the time for international friends to come to China was set. In June, they would first go to the capital, and then go to the concentration camp sites in Shanghai and Weifang to have some activities.
Later, the Chinese Film Culture Exchange Delegation will also set off to visit the United States.
Liu Zhigu, Li Wenhua, Yan Shunkai and others are included, and naturally Chen Qi and Gong Xue are also included.
“That’s my visit to the United States in June or July!”
Chen Qi thought about it and decided that he wanted to sign up for next year''s Oscars. The deadlines for applying for various Oscar awards are different, usually between September and November. The film must also meet the requirements, such as being released in the U.S. market for seven days.
There is no need for a large scale screening, a small scale will do.
I will go to Hong Kong next to discuss the copyright of "Life is Beautiful" and try to have a few screenings during the delegation''s visit to the United States. That would be more meaningful.
"Teacher Li?"
"Teacher Li?"
Chen Qi shouted several times, and Li Jianqun came out of the room and asked, "What''s the matter?"
"Have you packed up? People will be here soon."
"I''ve tidied it up a long time ago and made half of the room available for her."
Um?
Chen Qi felt that Li Jianqun was very unreliable. He took a look at the door of the room and saw two single beds separated to the left and right, close to the wall. On the left was her bed. There were still messy drawings on the bed, and the items were placed randomly, but there was no trace of them. There is no boundary, as if there is a 38th parallel in the middle.
"She is young, so don''t bully her and get along well with her."
"You should tell her not to disturb me. I like to stay up late."
"You stayed up late and asked people not to disturb you?"
“I can share my radio with her and we listen to the radio together.”
Li Jianqun entered the house.
Around noon, a tricycle stopped at the door, and several people with large and small bags helped move things.
This new colleague is none other than Li Lingyu. Chen Qi asked her to leave the Yue Opera Troupe. She had just completed the formalities and officially became a member of Dongchang. Hu Weili also completed the formalities, but he went directly to Hong Kong.
Now there are three strongholds: Beijing Film Studio''s office, Lechunfang, and Erlong Road dormitory.
Zhang Yimou, Zhang Junzhao, He Qun, He Ping, Xiong Xinxin, and Sun Jiankui were all on Erlong Road. It was inconvenient for Li Lingyu to be a lesbian, so she simply joined Lechunfang. There are four editors in Lechunfang, two of whom share a room. Ji Chunhua and Li Jianqun share a single room.
"Welcome welcome!"
“A warm welcome!”
The four editors around the station clapped and cheered, which made Li Lingyu feel embarrassed and quickly saluted. Chen Qi made an introduction, pointed at Li Jianqun and said: "This is Teacher Li, your roommate.
Until the building is built, you will have company. Teacher Li is an art student and has a weird temper. Please be patient. "
"You are the only one who can speak ill of others openly!"
Li Jianqun ignored him, pulled Li Lingyu and smiled: "I''m not weird at all, I''m just lazy."
People who are not weird will not say that they are not weird...
Li Lingyu chuckled, walked into the room and took a look, twitching her lips, okay, it''s better than the Yue Opera Troupe, which has eight people in one room.
…
"Dong dong dong!"
"Come in!"
After cleaning up, Li Lingyu knocked on the door of the main room in the front yard and entered the office.
"Sit down!"
Chen Qi smiled and said, "You and I are destined to be together. When Tai Chi asked you to sing "Beauty Song", I thought that one day we would work together together. The people here are very enthusiastic and don''t need to be formal. We got to know each other quickly. ." "Yeah, I know!"
Li Lingyu is 20 years old this year. According to the original track, she will apply for the Oriental Song and Dance Ensemble and become the queen of sweet songs.
"I have made an agreement with Xinhua Bookstore, and you will cooperate with the publicity..."
Chen Qi told the story again, then took out an envelope and said: "You recorded an album with 12 songs, and each song counts as 50. You go out to promote, maybe for a few months. This matter is Xinhua Bookstore Be responsible, you are not their person, there will inevitably be things you cannot take care of.
But don''t worry, I will send someone to be with you when the time comes to protect your safety.
And don’t be stingy with your money. Don’t let others look down on you when you are away. I will give you a living allowance. I will chip in the whole amount for you, 1,000 yuan! "
“…”
Li Lingyu looked at the bulging envelope and swallowed. She had heard that Chen Qi was generous to his subordinates, but she didn''t expect him to be so generous. The 1,000 yuan was enough for her two years'' salary.
Moreover, she inquired about the fact that the audio-visual club records songs for 10 yuan a song. No matter who it is, Li Guyi also pays this price.
How much the tape sells has nothing to do with the singer himself.
Chen Qi pays 50 for one song, which is a sky-high price!
After Li Lingyu went out, he took out some cash and stuffed it into several envelopes. He created "Spring Festival Gala Golden Songs", which included more than 20 songs and involved more than a dozen people, including Li Guyi, Hu Songhua, and Dedema.
I didn’t say hello to them beforehand, but I had to give them the money, which was also 50 per song.
CCTV must also have opinions. Why did you distribute the tape yourself? Chen Qicai doesn''t care about CCTV. He will make money first.
Li Lingyu''s album is uncertain, but "Spring Festival Gala Golden Melody" has sales of one million, with a profit of 2.5 yuan per box... Damn it! Chen Qi slapped the table, who is still making movies? !
…
"We don''t listen to songs, we listen to Shaoxing opera!"
"I''ve never heard of you singing before!"
"Oh, it''s really difficult for me, I can''t sing well..."
In the evening, with a bright moon in the sky, a large table was set up in the front yard, and a dozen or so people were busy celebrating the new arrival. Li Lingyu''s face turned red and she could only sing a cappella: "Sister Lin fell from the sky..."
Dai Hanhan encouraged Ji Chunhua to dance with him, but Ji Chunhua actually went up and pretended to be Jia Baoyu.
"Okay, sounds good! One more!"
Gong Xue clapped her hands and joined in the cheers. The first time was the second time. She was very happy to be able to sit in the front yard openly.
The night in March was still a bit cool, so we didn’t prepare any big dishes, such as cooked food, roasted sweet potatoes, corn, peanuts, and a bottle of Lotus White liquor, but the atmosphere was hot and all we needed was a bonfire.
Chen Qi likes this scene very much.
Take a look at this small courtyard. There are Liang Xiaosheng who is engaged in literature, Li Jianqun who is engaged in art, Ji Chunhua who is engaged in martial arts, and Li Lingyu who is a singer and opera... It is a gathering of heroes and talents!
It was around 8 o''clock.
After the dinner was over, we rushed to the toilet again. The chamber pot was also prepared. I guess I had to wake up tonight.
The lights are on in the backyard.
In the bedroom, Chen Qi was writing at his desk. Gong Xue put his feet into the hot water basin and hummed comfortably. He read the official letter with some anticipation: "What is the United States like? I haven''t been to the United States yet." Woolen cloth."
"I haven''t been there either, how would I know?"
"They say it''s like paradise there, with high wages, good benefits, everyone''s life is prosperous, and their minds are free and open..."
"Stop!"
Chen Qi knew that this was what 99.9% of people in the country thought, but he couldn''t help but interrupt: "There are no beautiful places, only relatively beautiful places. Anyway, you will know when you go there... By the way, are you free on Sunday?"
"Yes!"
"Shall I take you to my parents'' place for dinner?"
“…”
After Chen Qi finished speaking, he didn''t hear any response. When he turned his head, Gong Xue bent over, covered his face, and cried.
