Chapter 13: The Empty House
Li Shesheng, who was thought to be more handsome than Li Qian and better at singing than Zhou Yan in the future, was very decisive in urinating Bai Yujing the next morning. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Li Qian was a little embarrassed, but felt a little funny, Bai Yujing didn't care, and continued to tease him, making him grin and drool, and when the assistant brought a change of clothes from her house, she went to the bathroom to simply flush it, changed her clothes, and sat down with Li Qian to chat.
This little guy is very favored.
Before he was born, he already had Cao Zhan as his godfather, and now he has only been born for half a month, and there are two more godfathers, Xiao Aiguo and Huang Yuqing, and a godmother, Bai Yujing.
When Ming Xiaojing came to see him and Zhou Yan, she wanted to stop talking, and later secretly told Li Qian that she also liked this child, but this child was the first, and there were already so many people who spoiled her, she still waited for Wang Jinglu to give birth, and then recognized her godmother - this is her wisdom, but it does not affect her love for the little guy.
It was morning and the sun was shining.
There was a breeze outside, so Li Qian and Bai Yujing hid on the balcony indoors drinking tea and chatting.
Bai Yujing couldn't help muttering again, "The big rooftop on the ninth floor, hurry up and clean it up!
Li Qian agreed with a smile.
It was originally planned, but in the past two years, the company has been too busy, from the record department to the film and television department, to the special effects department, all of which are very busy.
This matter, although it has been planned for a long time, has been delayed like this, not because I don't want to do it, it's not that I don't have the money to do it, it's just that no one can find the time to follow up on it.
Bai Yujing has a very good complexion, the big vase that captivated the country and the city back then, ten years later, it still doesn't look old at all, but it looks more calm and refined than ten years ago, and there is an indescribable slightly familiar taste - that ten years of silence and seclusion have made her have a calm and calm heart that few people of the same age in the domestic entertainment industry have.
Today is Li Qian's time to rest and accompany the children, Bai Yujing came to see the children, and of course he was happy to sit face-to-face with Li Qian, drink a cup of tea, and chat.
Anyway, the sun is just right, and spring is strong anyway.
Everything is very comfortable and comfortable.
Bai Yujing took on a total of three dramas last year, and in her own words, the time is both loose and tight - the three dramas together are about four or five months of filming cycle.
So, in fact, her last year's days can be regarded as the word "moisturizing".
Generally, actresses between the ages of thirty and forty, especially those after the age of thirty-five, are difficult to be as nourished as she is nowβboth Chinese and foreign.
is in her thirties, for an actress, with her natural beauty, and careful maintenance and maintenance, they are not old at all, even if they are not born beautiful like Bai Yujing, they can't talk about the word "old" at all, they still have quite a strong persuasive power when they play girls in their early twenties in front of the camera. However, they are in their thirties after all.
If you continue to play a girl, how many years can you play?
For an actress in her thirties, transformation is already something that has to be considered.
From the previous heroines, beautiful young women, they began to gradually turn to play some roles that were not too strong in age, and then, gradually began to play some older young women, and even more, they began to play mothers, or...... Housewife.
Especially for Xiao Hua Dan and Xiao Hua Vase, this is a long, tangled, and painful process - once the transformation fails, or they can't transform at all, they even have to quit the showbiz.
Because they have lost their place.
But Lao Bai has no such troubles at all.
She filmed a police and bandit-themed TV series last year, playing a criminal police captain in the play, heroic, and a lot of fans, the age of the characters in the play is comparable to herself, but she has changed, she played a girl in her early twenties in a low-cost romance film, young and beautiful.
The two characters, Da Tsing Yi and Xiao Hua Dan, shuttle as they wish, without any disobedience.
Even at the end of the year, she played the absolute villain, the queen mother in "Princess Huanzhu".
It can be said that now she is both good and evil, charming and dignified, can play a high-class lady, and can also play the innocent little sister next door.
As far as today's domestic showbiz actresses are concerned, there are only a handful of actresses who can reach her level.
Oh, yes, Ming Xiaojing should also be one.
Of course, although they both have a good relationship with Li Qian, according to Li Qian's observation, there is almost no interaction between the two of them - it is said that when everyone first debuted, Ming Xiaojing once looked down on Bai Yujing, who was running around making vases, and conversely, Bai Yujing, who was arrogant back then, also looked down on Ming Xiaojing, who might not have taken a play for a year.
In this way, although the two did not have a bad relationship, they did not have a good impression of each other.
Although when talking about it, Ming Xiaojing admired Bai Yujing's courage in exposing those ugly behaviors back then, but there was no way, they just didn't have the slightest friendship.
It's like between Cheng Suhua and Zhou Yan.
They know each other, and they appreciate each other to some extent, but they just don't want to have a deep friendship with her.
The sun shines through the glass window, and it is warm.
The two chatted for a few words, and Bai Yujing couldn't help asking: "Your new play, just let it go?"
Li Qian also leaned on the rattan chair and replied lazily, "Well, the script has already been done, and even the requirements for the costumes have been made, just waiting for them to make things for me." Lao Zhao went to see the venue and filming, and the actors have roughly delineated the category, go back and audition, and finalize a few supporting roles, and that's it. This drama is difficult in Wuzhi, but unfortunately, Zhou Zhengju and Guo Yulong are one, Guo Yulong wants to play "The Gate of Life and Death", and it is impossible for me to invite Zhou Zhengju. I'll have to contact a few people when I go back, and try them one by one. β
Bai Yujing said "um" and didn't speak.
Li Qian turned his head to look at her, and said with a smile: "Lao Bai, it's nothing if you can't get on "The Gate of Life and Death", I'll start a play for you when I go back, and I'll be better than him!"
Bai Yujing let out a disdainful nostril, "Hey! It's like a joke, this girl can't believe your words!
Li Qian laughed.
But soon, Bai Yujing said again: "Actually, the reason is very simple, after all, it is a drama of Huafei Film and Television, Hu Fei, tsk...... The female first invited Xiao He, which can be regarded as helping them share the pressure of the box office. Xiao He is popular now, no matter how much money he has, he has to be willing to give it up! But when it comes to the second female drama, Lao Hu can't give you both big female dramas, right? Besides, people also have their own actors to support!"
Li Qian said "um" and didn't speak.
Hu Fei endured it for so many years, and finally waited for Qin Wei to make a commercial film and was willing to help him make money, this shot was fast and ruthless.
announced here that the crew began to prepare, and the current domestic appeal of the top male and female protagonists was immediately completed, Guo Yulong and He Yingyu, all of a sudden, the momentum soared.
Moreover, this is only on the surface, and it is a part that is more suitable for external publicity.
There are more inside that may be more important in Li Qian's opinion, but they are certainly not the characters that fans pay attention to, such as Qin Wei's old partner, one of the few American fingers in China, and Fang Baijin, the American finger whom Li Qian admires very much, have officially joined "The Gate of Life and Death", and for example, Zhou Zhengju, the best martial artist in China that Li Qian wanted to invite before, also joined with Guo Yulong.
Of course, in addition, Qin Wei's previous film crew and the royal team don't need to be mentioned at all.
Gu Shidao, the top photographer in China, the top lighting group, props group, and so on.
Qin Wei's prestige and ability are there, and as soon as Hu Fei's money is smashed, it really shocks the entire entertainment industry with wide eyes.
It is said that now, even small characters who can only show one or two faces in this "The Door of Life and Death" have many agents, brokerage companies and actors, running back and forth.
What is a blockbuster?
After Liu Chengzhang won the box office of 270 million, he announced that he would invest 70 million to shoot "Sword Immortal", and Du Weiyun, who is also known as a master, announced that he would invest 60 million in the new film, which is far from reaching the momentum that Qin Wei can achieve at the moment - he is really the only one in China today!
It seems that only Qin Wei made a move, so it was called a blockbuster!
No one spoke for a long time.
Seeing that the tea was cold, Li Qian asked her, "When are you leaving?"
Bai Yujing said: "April 8th." It's expected to be done by the end of May!"
Li Qian nodded and said, "Okay!"
The drama that Bai Yujing is about to shoot is called "Scars", the investment is not large, only a budget of six million, and the director is not famous, called Yuan Dacheng, in his forties, but this drama is only his debut, but Li Qian has read the script and thinks it is very good, especially the mournful charm and sense of age, at least in the stage of the script, he does a particularly good job - directors with screenwriting skills are often better at making good stories.
And the skills of this screenwriter need to be polished for a long time, and it is difficult to make up.
A very clear example is that Zhang Guoshi and Ang Lee, who have their own strengths and weaknesses in their starting level, the former is a photographer, the lens is extremely exquisite, and the movies are full of beauty, and the latter is a screenwriter, since his father's trilogy, he is known for being good at shooting stories, telling stories, and grasping delicate character feelings.
Twenty years later, Zhang Guoshi's shots are still exquisite, or majestic or delicate and gorgeous, each with its own subtlety, but the script is still very bad, leaving the adaptation, he almost can't tell the story, and Ang Lee, in the process of filming one after another, gradually made up for the lack of lens beauty, and gradually reached a masterpiece!
Well, far away......
Moreover, director Yuan Dacheng, who graduated from Yingtian Academy of Arts in the 70s, not only has a good script, but he also invited two actors who are great and suitable in Li Qian's opinion.
Of course, the heroine is needless to say, it is Bai Yujing, and the male protagonist is Cheng Yifan, who had dinner with a few days ago - that is a melancholy student with a very delicate inner drama, which is great.
Although Li Qian felt that if he gave this role to Zhu Qiang of his own company, Zhu Qiang would definitely take it properly, but ...... Like "The Door of Life and Death", this is also the investment of Huafei Film and Television, it is impossible for people to give you both the male and female protagonists Minghu Culture, not to mention, Xu Xian and the White Lady appeared together?
Please, we're not going to shoot "The Legend of the New White Lady"!
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Looking at the time, Li Qian asked, "Will you stay for dinner at noon?"
Bai Yujing was surprised, "What's the matter, you still want to drive me away?" Your mother and sister-in-law just told me to stay for dinner, what do you mean?"
Li Qian smiled and waved his hand, "I don't mean anything, it's just ...... I won't drink with you at noon, you have to drink it yourself, and your sister-in-law can't drink either!"
"Hey......! Can I drink with my uncle? It's as if I'm not happy without drinking! Hey, you can't drink at noon, what do you want to do in the afternoon?"
Li Qian smiled, "Don't tell you! Don't ask! It's just a small favor for a friend!"
Bai Yujing stared at him up and down, and at the end, four words popped out, "Sneaky!"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Everything has been sorted into neat cardboard boxes.
Mostly books, records, photo albums, diaries, and so on. There are also two large suitcases for clothes.
Li Qian parked the car and went upstairs, and after knocking on the door, he saw these things piled up on the ground.
Wang's mother, Tao Huijun, opened the door and couldn't help complaining, "She moved, why did you come here in person, arrange a driver, security guard or something, just help move it!"
Li Qian smiled: "I'm idle today, Sister Xue's things are all expensive, so I said I'll do a favor, besides, Sister Xue definitely doesn't want too many people to know where she lives." β
Tao Huijun sighed as if it were real or fake, "You guys!"
There were a lot of cardboard boxes, twenty or thirty, and four or five oversized suitcases, all of which were also stuffed.
Li Qian's physical strength is not bad, two or three cardboard boxes at a time, and the oversized suitcase is also thrown on his shoulder, and he directly pedals downstairs.
In the past two years, Tao Huijun's real estate business has been booming, her own, her daughter Wang Jingxue's, and many singers and actors on the side of Minghu Culture, all of which are under her unified management, she also buys and sells, mainly renting, with considerable income, rapid value-added, and gradually, she has become more and more temperamental.
However, Wang Jingxue thought that it was too noisy for them to live with an old couple and a little brother.
So, last year, she commissioned a renovation company to decorate a newly bought double-storey apartment, and after drying it for more than half a year, she recently decided to move in.
Li Qian heard about it, asked the date, and volunteered, saying I'll help you move.
For more than half an hour, Wang Jingxue moved only a few boxes, and Li Qian ran up and down the rest, and all of them were taken down, and the big, stupid and corrugated Mercedes-Benz G was put on the seat and stuffed to the ground.
Of course, Wang Jingxue's own Volvo was also stuffed.
Li Qian was sweating hot, but he didn't have time to rest, and then drove behind Wang Jingxue's car and sent her things.
When I arrived at the place, I moved again.
Li Qian is young, his physical foundation is good, his strength is strong and fast, and his work is extremely fast, Wang Jingxue followed at first, and later he was only responsible for helping him block the elevator door.
Then, I just watched him sweat profusely, running back and forth, carrying things.
Finally, everything was moved.
With Li Qian's physical strength, he was also tired and bent over, holding his knees with his hands and panting.
At this time, Wang Jingxue handed over a towel and said, "I just washed it with warm water, you wipe it." β
Li Qian gasped, took it, wiped her sweat briefly, and finally stopped to look at her new house, but couldn't help but be a little surprised, and said, "You're looking for the same designer, right?
Wang Jingxue smiled and did not speak.
She rarely laughs, so her smile is particularly amazing.
However, as Li Qian said, the decoration style here is really the same as the style of the big villa that Wang Jinglu is responsible for decorating, and if you come in with your eyes closed, it will even make Li Qian feel like "home" - of course, compared with the prosperity and richness over there, this side seems much simpler and more elegant.
The room was even a little empty.
When I asked her, she said, "I don't like too much furniture and I don't know how to take care of it." I still prefer the room to be empty. β
Li Qiangang wanted to smile and nod his head, saying "Then it's up to you" or something, but soon, somehow, the photography theories that the teacher said in class suddenly got into his head.
Philosophers say that people who are full in heart like emptiness and vastness.
A lonely person is someone who doesn't want to be friends with him, and a lonely person is someone who doesn't need friends.
The photographer said that the person in the empty house is often lonely.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Li Qian pursed his lips and walked upstairs and downstairs.
Clean, elegant, simple house.
Wang Jingxue seemed to be in a good mood today, and when Li Qian came down from upstairs, he even vaguely heard her humming something. Of course, when she heard the footsteps, the humming voice suddenly disappeared.
Then, Li Qian sat on a simple fabric sofa, watched Wang Jingxue bend over there to open the cardboard boxes separately, and asked her, "Do you want to help?"
Wang Jingxue turned her head, smiled, and shook her head, "No! β
So, Li Qian was silent.
But finally, he got up and walked over.
The open cardboard boxes were full of books and records, especially records.
Li Qian squatted down and was right next to her.
Wang Jingxue's movements stopped for a moment, and then, she lowered her head, as if she was suddenly a little nervous.
"I ......" Li Qian seemed to want to say something, but Wang Jingxue only waited for him to say the word "I", and said hurriedly: "I made an appointment with Ruoxuan Xiaoice to have dinner with Ruoxuan in the evening, do you want to come?"
"Uh......" After thinking about it, Li Qian shook his head, "Forget it, I won't go." β
The two looked at each other.
Immediately, Wang Jingxue lowered her head and continued to open the carton, her voice was tense, and she just said, "These are all records I have collected over the years, there are so many vinyls, and I can't buy them now!"
Li Qian smiled, took a deep breath, stood up, and said, "That's ...... I'll go back first. β
Wang Jingxue stopped and nodded.
Li Qian got up and walked out.
Hearing the footsteps, she stood up, chased after her, and delivered it to the door.
"I talked to Xiaolu about QQ the day before yesterday, and she said she would come back next Tuesday?"
Li Qian nodded, "Hmm." There's been a project over there lately, and it's very important, she's the executive director now! She's interested in business. β
Wang Jingxue nodded and said, "When she comes back, I'll invite the two of you to come over for dinner." β
Li Qian nodded and said with a smile: "Okay." β
