Chapter 601 Red skirts are popular on the street
"Xiao Gao, do you believe in fate?"
"When it comes to destiny, I only believe that if the country is better, we will be better!"
"Oh, this sublimation is too blunt, there is no foreshadowing at all... ah!"
Chen Qi''s thigh was pinched again and his rant was interrupted. Gong Xue glared at him and whispered: "Can you shut up? You can''t stop talking. I think the filming was pretty good."
"Really?"
"Of course!"
Chen Qinu pursed her lips, indicating that she would listen to the audience''s comments.
"Is it almost over? Is it different from her previous films? I can''t describe it."
"I also have this feeling. Her previous films were very new, but this one is very old, similar to other domestic films."
"You didn''t read the opening subtitles. It was filmed by Shanghai Film Studio. The screenwriter and director are both from Shanghai Film Studio. Gong Xue only made films about her lover in the past, but this time it''s certainly different."
"Her lover? Chen Qi?"
"Yeah, mutton skewers!"
"Haha, don''t talk about mutton skewers, I want to laugh again!"
Gong Xue pouted and whispered: "It''s pretty good in China, but of course it can''t be compared to you."
"I''m not saying it''s bad, it''s just that the audience is used to it and they can''t adapt to it... Hey, walk quickly, walk quickly, you won''t be able to walk for a while!"
Seeing that "Under the Bridge" was about to end, the two of them stood up in a panic and sneaked out again.
Star chasing is also very fanatical in this era. Gong Xue''s current life is similar to that of future stars, and he has lost a lot of freedom. When the two got into the van, she asked, "What do you mean by seriousness?"
"Domestically speaking, the film is of good quality. Although it has flaws, it is still a masterpiece. It also reflects some issues of self-employment and smuggling, which has some practical significance..."
Chen Qi thought for a while and said: "As for your performance, it has indeed improved a lot and is more delicate. Some of the inner scenes, micro-expressions and changes in the level of the eyes are all excellent. I will give it 78 points."
"Why not 80 points?"
"Because you''re not enough!"
"Then I will continue to work hard!"
Gong Xue did not refute, she knew that according to Chen Qi''s strict standards, 80 points is the threshold for excellence, and said: "You are right, only by acting in literary films can you hone your acting skills. I now understand it deeply, after filming "Life is Beautiful" "Under the Bridge" feels like progress."
"Have you been invited to any movies recently?"
"A few of them were mediocre, so I refused. If it really doesn''t work, forget it. I won''t be filming this year and I''ll take a break."
She is determined to prepare for pregnancy and have a baby this year. She will go to the United States in April and participate in the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers in May. She has a very tight schedule. Chen Qi does have a story, but this work needs to be polished carefully and cannot be rushed, leaving it to her to come back and shoot again.
Gong Xue is in a good mood and really wants to take a chance to rest. Chen Qi is going to Hong Kong soon, and she wants to go back to Shanghai to be with her parents.
Two more days passed in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Yimou took Fei Xiang to shoot the MV.
These days, MVs are just bombs. You don’t have to think too much, and you really don’t have any creativity. You just go to the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the airport and other places, and then take pictures of the sky and clouds, which is like a wanderer returning home.
…
This morning.
Chen Qi is painting with Gong Xue. It should be said that he is modeling for others.
This is a serious model. He is sitting on a chair with his clothes on, his legs crossed and reading a book, with a serious look on his face. In fact, it''s okay not to wear clothes. He is thick-skinned. It doesn''t matter. Gong Xue can''t afford to embarrass that person.
If word spreads, it will jump into the river and it will sell for 100,000 to 80,000 yuan at Sotheby''s auction house in a few years.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
While he was drawing, he suddenly heard a ring at the courtyard door. Chen Qi put down his book, stood up and went out, saying, "What''s wrong?"
"Someone named Qi Xing''s family is looking for Sister Xue!"
"Where?" "It''s the director of Changying Film Studio!"
"We''ll go over there right away!"
He called Gong Xue and they went to the front yard together.
In the reception room, a man in his 50s was sitting inside. He had a plain appearance and a dusty face. He stood up and said: "Comrade Gong Xue! Comrade Chen Qi! I''m sorry to disturb you."
"Hello hello!"
After shaking hands, the three of them took their seats. When Chen Qi asked about the reason, Qi Xingjia took out a script from his bag and said with a smile: "Changying Studio is preparing a new play and would like to invite Comrade Gong Xue to star."
He took it and took a look. The title of the film was "Red Dress Fashionable on the Street".
"What''s it about?"
"Fashion film! It is said that a female worker in a cotton spinning factory in Shanghai likes to wear beautiful clothes, but she was made things difficult by conservative forces. In the end, she dared to break through herself and live boldly and sincerely. Comrade Gong Xue is a native of Shanghai and is recognized as fashionable and beautiful. I also wore a red dress on the spring evening, which is perfect.”
"If you say so, he is truly the chosen one!"
"What choice?" The Qi Xing family didn''t understand.
"He likes to talk nonsense, you should ignore him!"
Gong Xue pushed Chen Qi and said, "You go out first. I''ll talk to the director. I''m not looking for you to film."
"Okay, okay, if you dislike me, I''ll leave!"
He flashed away with a look of sorrow and anger, Gong Xue rolled her eyes, and Qi Xing''s family looked surprised and amused. It seemed like it was the first time they saw a couple getting along like this.
Chen Qi ran to the editorial office next door to chat, feeling quite amused.
The results of "The Fashionable Red Dress on the Street" were average and it didn''t win any awards, but it is always mentioned when talking about the movies of that year because it was the first fashion film in New China.
It is very suitable for the background of the times. Young people want to break away from the monotonous colors of gray, blue and green, and are eager to pursue colorfulness and beauty in clothing. However, some old minds cannot understand this trend.
At that time, there was a popular game among young people called skirt cutting.
Girls put on their most beautiful dresses and usually gather in the park to compete with each other to see whose dress is the prettiest.
At first it was called "Zhanqun", which meant to show off. Later, when the winning mentality became too strong, it became "Zhanqun", which meant to kill the opponent. This setting is very interesting, but unfortunately the film is a bit conservative and does not reflect the true style of a fashion film.
But Chen Qi thought more.
I have never had any contact with Changying Film Studio, but suddenly I came to find him. This routine is exactly the same as that of Shanghai Film Studio.
"Everyone knows that I love my wife, so they all come to take the wife route!"
When it comes to domestic studios, Changying Film Studio is the big brother. It has the longest history, the deepest foundation, and supports many talents. It is the three giants with Beijing Film Studio and Shanghai Film Studio. However, now that Wu Tianming has taken office, Xiying Studio will soon gain momentum.
Han Sanping is probably coming out of the Emei Factory too.
If Chen Qi wanted to do big things, he would naturally have to make friends with these families.
After a while, Gong Xue came over and said, "We had a good chat. I like this subject."
"You want to act?"
"Well! I don''t want to play the role of a poor mother who is abandoned by a man and raises her children alone all day long! I don''t have any children myself, and I have played the role of a mother three times!"
Chen Qi was happy and said with a smile: "Okay, I''ll talk to him again."
When he entered the reception room, the Qi Xing family''s expressions immediately became serious. They both knew that reform was coming, and each of them was prepared.
Chen Qi didn''t waste any time and said directly: "Gong Xue can star, but there are two things. First, if I feel that the script is not good, I will start to change it. Second, Gong Xue has a lot of things this year and may ask for leave. Thank you for your support." be magnanimous."
"no problem!"
Qi Xing''s family didn''t beat anyone. It seemed that the factory had given instructions in advance.
"Well, happy cooperation!"
The two shook hands.
