Since 1983

"Didi!"

Early in the morning, Boss Xu parked his little crown outside his dormitory building. After waiting for a while, I heard chattering, and the three girls came out.

"elder brother!"

"Teacher Xu!"

"Teacher Xu!"

Xu Fei looked at Liu Bei, Jiang Shan, and Chen Xiaoyi, and wondered, "You don't come back when you have a home, why are you always rubbing against other people's dormitories?"

"Let's just play around, the two of them are my girlfriends."

Jiang Shan and Chen Xiaoyi were Tieci at school, and they got close to her when they were filming "Passing" and became a trio of girlfriends.

After chatting for a while, the two girls went shopping by themselves, and Liu Bei got into the car.

"Where are you taking me? I'm still confused."

"Meet a screenwriter. I recently wrote a story outline, which is very suitable for you."

"Heroine?"

"Um."

"hey-hey!"

Liu Bei smirked, showing his gums again.

It is warm in May, the shrubs are green, and there are clusters on both sides. The growing branches and leaves are dense, blocking the sun, and the car is moving slowly in the shade, with mottled light and shadow.

Not long after, we arrived at a rather remote hotel.

Go upstairs and knock on the door, there are people in the room, including Zhang Guoshi, Gong Li, Ge You and Lu Wei.

"Teacher Xu, come here, what do you want to drink?"

"I do it myself, I do it myself..."

After exchanging greetings, Xu Fei held a cup of tea and said, "Director Zhang, how is the film preparation going?"

"Everything is going well. I will go to ZB in a few days. There is a Zhoucun Street in ZB. I mainly shoot scenes there."

Zhoucun is a commercial port. From the Ming Dynasty to the Republic of China, merchants from the north and the south circulated here, and gradually became a market, making money every day. It is commonly known as the dry dock. Both "Daranfang" and "Crossing the Guandong" have been filmed.

Zhang Guoshi has been working on "Alive", and he has been working on the script for half a year. Ge You and Gong Li both lost weight, but Uncle Ge was too thin.

"I heard that "Farewell My Concubine" is about to go to Cannes, so don't lag behind!"

"What's behind or not? Triumph's talent is on display. It's all about making movies."

Xu Fei flirted with Zhang Guoshi, his mouth was generous, but his expression became slightly unnatural.

Since the debut of these two, you have been one with me, and the secret probing is quite interesting. It wasn't until the fiasco of "The Murder of a Steamed Bun" that Kaige Rinpoche announced his withdrawal and began to play chicken soup for his soul, explaining various principles to the audience.

After chatting for a long time, Xu Fei took out a manuscript and said with a smile, "I'm here today, mainly to find Teacher Lu Wei. This is the outline, and I would like you to write a script."

Wearing glasses, Lu Wei is gentle and dignified, with a special literary air.

There are too few good screenwriters in China, and he is considered a god-level figure. I wrote 25 scripts and filmed 11 of them, and the rest were not allowed to be filmed or completed due to various reasons.

The most famous ones are of course "Farewell My Concubine" and "To Live". Some of them are famous, but they are not written by themselves.

For example, in the film version of "White Deer Plain", Wang Quanan didn't use his script, and made most of it himself.

There is also the famous "On the Red Cliff", oh, this is so interesting!

Director Wu asked him to write the script, and there were constant disagreements from the very beginning. Lu Wei asked what theme the film wanted to express?

Director Wu said: "What I want is peace."

Lu Wei said: "Oh, there is everything in Chibi, except there is no peace. In that environment, whoever talks about peace will die!"

After arguing and arguing, Director Wu abandoned his script and asked someone to write several versions. In one version, Mrs. Wu contributed a lot.

"Mengmeng, stand up!"

Hey, it is said that it was written by Mrs. Wu.

But at this moment, Lu Wei took the manuscript and said, "Tell me first, what story I heard."

"The title of the play is "Tsing Yi". Although it also talks about Peking Opera, it has nothing to do with "Farewell My Concubine"."

"It is said that in the 1990s, a theater troupe performed "Flying to the Moon", and Liu Ruyun played Chang'e, a first-class actor. On the first day of the performance, the leader inspected and was very upset.

Said 'the country is so beautiful, why do our young women run to the moon? '

The troupe was terrified and hurried off their horses. Liu Ruyun was in a hurry, her throat was broken, and her spirit was not normal, she said in a daze that someone else had drugged her.

Fast forward to 1979.

Liu Ruyun became an old goblin in others' mouths, with a surly temper and no one in her eyes. And the character at this time is called Li Xuefen. "

"..."

Zhang Guoshi and Gong Li couldn't help being interested, and everyone in the room listened to Teacher Xu's storytelling.

"There is a new girl in the troupe, named Xiao Yanqiu, who just graduated from the theater school and is born with the ability to sing in Tsing Yi. The troupe leader took it very seriously and decided to rearrange "Flying to the Moon" and let Li Xuefen and her take the roles of A and B.

Liu Ruyun saw his own shadow in the child and pointed out it himself. Xiao Yanqiu's Chang'e was a huge success, performing forty times in a row.

Li Xuefen couldn't sit still anymore, so she asked the group leader to let her go on stage. After a performance, she clashed with her and was poured a cup of hot water.

Xiao Yanqiu was punished and transferred to the logistics department of the drama school, and never had the chance to appear on stage again. However, she has fallen in love with Qiao Bingzhang who plays Hou Yi, but she has no idea that Qiao Bingzhang already has a wife.

From then on, she was like Chang'e who fell into the mortal world and married the simple-minded Miangua.

Without tacit understanding, without harmony, life becomes a quagmire, waiting to die in a broken tube building.

A few years later, Xiao Yanqiu ushered in a turning point and became the head teacher of the drama school. She took a fancy to a student, Chun Lai, just like Liu Ruyun looked at her back then, teaching with all her heart.

At this time, the Peking Opera Troupe was facing reforms and was unable to make ends meet. A wealthy person is willing to invest and wants to rearrange "Flying to the Moon", calling for Xiao Yanqiu to play Chang'e.

This big money is a movie fan back then, Hun'er is already hanging in the moon palace.

Xiao Yanqiu was ecstatic, and guided her disciples to let Chunlai play A and B roles with her. But Chunlai has a different concept, she just wants to be the protagonist and seduce the big money..."

Hearing this, Lu Wei waved his hands and said, "So you want to film the story of four generations of Tsing Yi?"

"right."

"TV drama?"

"right."

"How many episodes?"

"About 20 episodes."

"Okay, I'll take it."

Lu Wei was a little excited and stroked the manuscript, "Teacher Xu lives up to his reputation, what a story!"

"It's really a good story, but it's a pity that I can't make a movie, otherwise I want to make it." Zhang Guoshi agreed.

"The heroine is..."

"This one, Liu Bei. He was born in Tsing Yi, and has learned from both the Mei School and the Cheng School."

Everyone looked at her, and Zhang Guoshi gave some advice, saying: "According to what you said, this Xiao Yanqiu must be a bit yin, and she is not enough for the state of insanity."

"So you have to practice, this girl is a ruthless person."

"Well, Xiao Bei is good and capable." Ge You also spoke.

Liu Bei is like a child who is surrounded by adults and praises, embarrassed and shy, and has to perform in public.

I can only giggle smirk, mouthful of gums.

…………

After coming out of the hotel, the girl hesitated to speak.

After driving for a long time, I couldn't help turning my head, "Brother..."

"Hey, it's not just for you. We shoot commercial dramas, and we have to win awards, so that the company can be strong. If you want to thank me, just play the role well."

Liu Bei pursed her lips, she was not stupid, she knew the value and challenge of this play too well.

He always said that actors and stars are different, why are they different? Those who can pass the test are called actors.

"I will go to the teacher tomorrow and pick up the kung fu."

"I will definitely bring you an award back!"

(besides……)
