1979 Golden Age

"Autumn has a bright moon shining in the night sky, watching winter paintings makes me love the snow falling, spring and summer are bright and cheerful, there are so many wonderful things..."

In the evening of that day, the recorder was playing the song "Cabar Le" by the Wenner band from a few years ago. Chen Qi was holding a piece of durian in his left hand and a pen in his right hand, writing an outline of a story.

The unique smell of durian rushes into the nasal cavity, smelly and a bit addictive.

Many people were not used to eating this thing for the first time, and Gong Xue had already vomited it...

The tip of the pen rustled on the paper, linking up with his brain. As of now, Dongchang has only one movie to be released for the Christmas season, "The Love of Ghosts," and "Life Is Beautiful" is still in the later stages.

The copyright of "Orphan" has been sold and has not yet been released in the United States. I don't know how 20th Century Fox planned it. However, for a film that sells copyrights, it will take a long time to be released overseas. In some cases, it may be one year or two years later. .

There was no news from New Line Cinema, which Ed asked about, and the efficiency was just slow.

Next, he will focus on the promotion of "The Love of Ghosts" and the entrepreneurial work of Legendary Pictures.

The first thing to consider was the cost. The capital was too small, only 2 million. Chen Qi considered filming "Mr. Zombie". Later, he calculated that the cost was too high. The original version cost 8.5 million Hong Kong dollars, which he could not afford now.

After thinking about it, I just decided to watch a romantic blockbuster called "Seven Days of Love"!

The original version starred Zhong Zhentao and Ye Tong. Ye Tong had a revealing scene. The entire film was basically indoors, and the cost was low. It won 15 million at the box office.

He first wrote an outline, then gave it to Zhuang Cheng to perfect the script, copying the original cast. If the scale of Taiwan's review is too large, then it will be cut. In short, if it can be released in Taiwan and show its face in front of Tong Yuejuan, it is a success.

Take pictures of the later ones.

"Wow!"

The sound of flushing water came from the bathroom. Gong Xue washed his face, brushed his teeth, and came out listlessly: "I will never eat durians again. I will live or die."

"Why are you having such a big reaction? Are you allergic?"

"I don't know, I don't like the taste anyway, ugh... you finish it quickly!"

She took a step back and stared at Chen Qi eating the piece of durian, then watching him brush his teeth. At this moment, there was a knock on the door. She opened it and Shi Nansheng stood outside ghostly: "Xiaoxue, go play cards." ah!"

"No, no!"

"Let's go, the worst is we won't win against you!"

"Today is really bad. I feel sick. I need to rest."

"nausea?"

Shi Nansheng was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened: "You have it?!"

"Don't talk nonsense, I just eat durian!"

Gong Xue also stared wide-eyed. Chen Qi came out with a toothbrush and testified: "Yes, it's just eating durian, and I'm forced to brush my teeth!"

"Then you should also be careful and take precautions."

Shi Nansheng left with a joking look on his face and went to grab Zhong Chuhong and Liu Xuehua.

"Speaking of which, I've always wanted to ask you something..."

Chen Qi brushed his teeth and said vaguely: "When you play mahjong with them, do you talk about everything?"

"Um?"

"It's just four women together, it's quite unreasonable, talking about all kinds of topics?"

"I don't understand. What do you mean?"

Gong Xue blinked his big eyes.

"Still pretending! Nan Sheng told me that day, did you tell us all the embarrassing things about us?"

"How is that possible?"

Gong Xue seemed to have been greatly wronged and said: "In your eyes, am I such an unreliable person? Of course I won't say anything!"

"Really not?"

"No, no!"

"Then how did Nan Sheng know?"

"She lied to you!"

"I really didn't say that!"

"You have to believe me!"

"Oh...they insist on asking..."

Chen Qi rolled his eyes.

Then he picked her up suddenly, threw her on the sofa, and slapped her on the butt.

"ah!"

"I really didn't say anything, I just mentioned a few words... Because, because Nan Sheng mentioned it first, Sister Hui also joined in the fun. They both said it. I didn't want to say it..."

"The Xiangjiang Sisters are members, right? They share the secrets of the boudoir, right? In the past few months, you have been too influenced by unhealthy tendencies. If you don't learn from the good ones, you will learn from the bad ones!"

He hit her a few more times, and Gong Xue lay on his lap and said gloomily: "I feel that I am in love with Nan Sheng, and I also regard Sister Hui as my elder sister. It is rare for me to have a few good friends, and I am very happy."

"You can talk about anything when you are happy? Aunt Shi Hui is still an elder, huh?"

Chen Qi scratched his head. My name is Auntie, and your name is Sister Hui. Isn’t this a seniority difference?

"I was wrong, I won't say it again!"

Gong Xue got up, hugged his neck, and said, "Hey, I'll leave after filming in a few days!"

"Okay, okay, I'm not angry..."

Chen Qi pinched her face and said: "But to be honest, you did suffer a lot in Hong Kong. You should be careful when you go back. The habits of the two sides are still different."

"Yeah, I know!"

"Go back and practice your lines and host a Spring Festival Gala for everyone to see."

"I'm confident, I've memorized it long ago... But I can't go home for the Chinese New Year. I originally wanted to buy some clothes for my parents, buy some New Year's goods, etc., but now I can't give them to them personally."

She leaned on Chen Qi's shoulder and suddenly became disappointed, saying quietly: "I came to Hong Kong and Berlin to promote "Tai Chi", but I didn't celebrate the New Year at home. I was at home last year, but I'm not at home this year.

Since I became a professional actor, I have been away from home for the Chinese New Year in two of the three years. "

"Oh, it's all my fault!"

"I'm not blaming you. I know you're doing this for my own good. I just think that there's always a trade-off. I've enjoyed the glory of being an actor, so I have to sacrifice something."

"..."

Chen Qi hugged her waist, and a pleasant scent wafted from her hair. He said, "There's actually a way."

"Hmm?"

"You can invite your parents to Beijing to watch the show live."

Gong Xue sat up quickly, looking at him with big eyes: "Are you serious? You want to invite my parents?"

"Is it not possible?" Chen Qi smiled.

"No, no, yeah, that's fine! I'll write them a letter, and you can ask someone to take it over."

"You can go back in a few days, and just come back to Shanghai and tell your family, why write a letter?"

"Oh, yes, I almost forgot!"

She tapped her head shyly, but she was visibly excited.

…………

In late October, the weather in Shanghai is getting cooler.

Usually at this time of year, there is not much rain in Shanghai, and the sun is abundant, but today it is drizzling.

With the expansion of the East Factory, several more administrative staff were added. Zhao Wenchao was the second batch to join. He used to be an employee of a unit under the Ministry of Culture and was transferred here. Well, he was very satisfied!

He was very satisfied to be able to go to Hong Kong!

This time, as soon as he came back, he ran to Shanghai Animation Film Studio and met the director Te Wei.

"According to the previous agreement, we officially commissioned your factory to produce 100 episodes, oh no, it should be 99 episodes of "Idioms Animation Gallery". Counting by episode, we will first produce the first episode, a total of 15 episodes, for a period of four months."

Te Wei learned about the specific content and frowned, "15 episodes is more than 30 minutes, and four months is actually OK, but why do you have to set a deadline?

And your reward mechanism, double it if it is completed, double it if it is doubled a month in advance, isn't this using money to corrupt our artists?"

"Old director, you don't know!

Comrade Chen Qi took this episode to show the Hong Kong literary and art circles, and invited many parents and children to watch it on the spot, that It is a great compliment! They think it is very suitable for children to watch, has great educational significance, and can spread the traditional culture of our Chinese nation.

We are also eager to let all the children in Hong Kong see it as soon as possible. It is not about money corruption. What you said is too serious! "

"..."

Te Wei twitched his mouth, but he had already agreed and signed a contract. If he wanted to do it, he had to finish it, otherwise it would tarnish the reputation of Shanghai Animation Film Studio. He said: "Okay, okay, you go to the comrade in charge to discuss it in detail."

...

"Hey, take care!"

"No more!"

Mark Xuan and Wang Borong saw Zhao Wenchao off, looked at each other, and could not hide their excitement.

Except for the completed episode, there are still 14 episodes of tasks, each episode is 4,000 Hong Kong dollars, which can earn 56,000 Hong Kong dollars for the factory. But this is not the point, the point is the reward!

The two quickly calculated that if they finished it a month in advance, if they were divided into four groups, each person could get 900 yuan!

That is 300 yuan per month!

Even if we find more helpers, it will be enough to make money, because the old masters in the factory only earn a few dozen yuan!

But where can we find helpers?

We can't dig from the inside anymore, it will affect other projects, and the old factory director will get angry.

Wang Borong thought about it and whispered: "I know a few young people who have studied art and wanted to join the factory but didn't, but they still have some skills. They can use their spare time to help us make original paintings, and they will be very happy if they are paid a little."

"Hiss!"

Mark Xuan was a little scared: "Are we considered hired? Capitalist restoration?"

"We are not called hired, this is called helping young people expand employment channels. The country is racking its brains to place young people in employment, and we are just doing our part."

"Then give it a try?"

"Try it, who doesn't want to make money?!"
