Chapter 114: Many talents in the film industry

"Hung Nian Hung Nian!"

"What's wrong with the kid?"

"I just fainted suddenly... lā”

"Huh?!"

“……”

"Get out of the way!"

Just when the onlookers were flustered and at a loss, a tall figure suddenly squeezed in from outside the crowd.

I saw that this man was wearing a black suit, a gray fedora hat, and a large pipe in his mouth.

This person relied on himself to be tall, and he rushed left and right, and squeezed to Hongwei's side in two clicks.

"It's Erye!"

"It's good now. ”

"Erye, look at the child!"

"Er Ye is here too?"

“……”

The appearance of this person caused a commotion in the crowd, and Yang Qiu, who was trapped on the periphery, also understood who this man was.

I saw this 'Erye' squatting down, touched Xiao Hongnian's forehead, and said 'I have to send it to the hospital quickly' with a pipe in his mouth, and without waiting for Hongwei to speak, he picked up Xiao Hongnian and stood up.

"I'll go too!" Hongwei, who was still half-kneeling on the ground, grabbed the corner of Er Ye's clothes and said with red eyes.

Er Ye paused slightly, looked at the portrait of Yan Hua next to him, and was embarrassed: "This ......"

"I just lost my husband and don't want to lose any more children. The tears in Hongwei's eyes finally rolled down, but the hand that held Er Ye never let go.

"Grandpa, take Hongwei with you, the child's illness can't be delayed. Li Ying suddenly strung out, patted Hao Nian who was crying next to him and said: "Here I help Hao Nian carry it, he is also older, it is time to help his mother." ”

Er Ye only thought about it for less than half a second, then shook his head categorically and said, "Okay, let's go!"

After saying that, Er Ye ran out with Hongnian in his arms, the crowd avoided and made way for a way, and Hongwei quickly stood up and followed behind Er Ye.

"Brother, I'll take a look too. ”

Li Hanxiang, who was next to Yang Qiu, pursed his lips and struggled for a moment, then dropped a sentence, and also turned around and chased in the direction of Hongwei.

"What trouble are you going to make!" Yang Qiu was stunned and said hurriedly.

"I'll just go and see, it won't be a problem. Li Hanxiang waved his hand and said as he walked out: "Wait a minute, don't wait for me, I'll go back by myself." ”

“……”

To say that Yonghua has many famous directors and stars, there are even more famous producers. But there are only two producers who are famous but active.

One of them is named Wang Xiaosong, and the other is this grandfather.

The producer, Wang Xiaosong, said that he was active because he commuted to and from work on time every day and was always there for filming.

You can often see him on the Yonghua set, and you are not afraid that you will not find anyone if you have something.

And this grandfather is just the opposite.

Look at Yang Qiu's reaction in front of you, if it weren't for the people around him shouting 'Er Ye' one after another, I'm afraid he still wouldn't know who the person who was holding the pipe just now......

You must know that Yang Qiuke is still a person who has been in Yonghua for more than a year.

But he didn't even know this grandfather!

Erye's name is Erye, he is an authentic Tianjing person, because he is tall and big, and his personality is also hearty and heroic, so people in the film industry call him Er Ye according to the name of Tianjing.

To say that Er Ye's film history is not short, he began to play roles in Xiangjiang's Chinese films in the thirties. It's just that obviously Er Ye's actor experience is not very smooth, and he always plays some supporting roles and other leftovers.

His most famous role is still Fan Xu, who eats pork legs raw in the 39 version.

Maybe it was because he saw that his star career was not going well, so he angrily changed his career to become a producer, but he didn't think that he would find the right way this time, he was heroic by nature and was very handy when he started to produce, and he became famous in the film industry.

In the end, he was taken over by Yonghua.

It's just that Er Ye is obviously different from that Wang Xiaosong, if you have something to look for Er Ye, you will never find it if you go to Yonghua to find it.

When others rehearse scenes, the producer looks for the director, and then there are a bunch of things you have to do and what to do, but Er Ye's producer just reversed, and the director went to him when he was in trouble.

Where to find it?

Go to the Yude Pool or the Golden Palace Song and Dance Hall......

Your grandfather's activity is active there!

The Golden Palace Song and Dance Hall, he only went to the general cause, so the probability of encountering it is smaller, but it is often encountered when you go to the bathing pool.

Northerners love to take a bath in the bathhouse, and Er Ye is naturally no exception.

And Er Ye has a characteristic, that is, the more nervous he is about filming, the more he likes to take a bath.

I often sleep in the bathhouse for most of the day!

With this attitude towards work, it is rare to show up in Yonghua for a year, and Yang Qiu can know a ghost.

But then again......

The sudden situation in the funeral home naturally caused a lot of heated discussions, but under the auspices of Li Ying, the situation was still well controlled.

After the memorial service ended in a hurry, Yang Qiu saw that he couldn't help much, so he said hello and left with Wang Tianlin and Liu Lianghua first.

The three of them walked silently all the way, and they were not interested in talking.

When they were about to walk to the Hou Wang Temple, Yang Qiu suddenly remembered something, turned his head to Wang Tianlin and asked, "You are also filming Cantonese films, do you know Qin Jian?"

"Qin Jian?" Wang Tianlin was stunned for a moment and replied: "When I used to make films under director Hong Zhonghao, I worked with him. Qin Jian's introductory master is director Hu Peng. ”

Director Hu Peng, the creator of the first generation of Xiangjiang films. Since the first one in 1949, he has made four or five Wong Fei Hung movies one after another.

Amazing efficiency......

Of course, Yang Qiu didn't care about Hu Peng now, so he asked again, "What about Qin Jianren?"

"How are people?" Wang Tianlin scratched his head and said hesitantly: "This person still has talent, that is, ...... It's ......"

"It's just that the character is not good?"

"How do you know?!" Wang Tianlin was a little stunned.

"Huh-"

Yang Qiu smiled, and then told him the events of the day before yesterday, and then Wang Tianlin was a little abrupt and explained the antecedents of the incident to Yang Qiu.

Qin Jian is a posthumous son, his surname is Chen, and Qin Jian is his stage name.

He was raised by his mother and sister, and after finishing middle school in Xiangjiang, he stayed on to teach, and occasionally wrote small tofu pieces for publication in newspapers.

At the age of twenty, Qin Jian stepped into the film and television industry by chance and became an assistant director to director Hu Peng.

This is how he entered the world of screenwriting.

This year, World War II had just ended.

As mentioned above, after World War II, due to the shortage of films in Southeast Asia, the Cantonese film market ushered in a period of rapid development, and all kinds of Cantonese films and fragments emerged in an endless stream.

Therefore, before the business has been booming for two or three years, these Cantonese film practitioners have found that the script is not enough!

At this time, Mr. Qin, who was still a small screenwriter, naturally discovered the business opportunities in front of him.

When Yang Qiu was still in Yonghua, the head of our drama troupe, Cheng Gang, gathered a large number of talents to help him do things by eating a big pot of rice.

In fact, this method was used by Qin Jian as early as two years before the establishment of the repertory troupe.

And the location is also very coincidental, it is also in a wooden house halfway up the mountain in Wong Tai Sin.

However, unlike the repertory troupe, there are a bunch of deserters, petty civil officials, teachers, etc., and the personnel are so complex and difficult to manage.

In Qin Jian's screenwriting team, all the twenty or so people are college students.

Students, they're all foolish.

Especially these people are young people who have just fled, just left the school gate, have eaten the last meal without the next meal, and are in a panic all day.

More than 20 college students got together to write a script, although the social experience is not enough, but at least the knowledge is enough, the script is out every few days, and soon a lot of it will be piled up.

Qin Jian naturally took the script and went out to sell it.

In this pile of scripts, although the good and bad are mixed, you can always catch one by casting nets to catch fishing.

So far, there's nothing wrong with that, but the rest of the matter isn't on the table.

One is that after the script was sold, Qin Jian took half of the money received, and gave the rest to the students who wrote the script.

It stands to reason that just like the release of the movie, this theater will take half of it, although it is a bit ruthless, but there is nothing wrong with it in theory.

After all, I also recruited you, I bought the rice, and I sold the script......

If you don't want to divide it like this, you can leave!

But it shouldn't be, Qin Jian never made it clear to those students how the money was divided.

As a result, those students still thought that they had the big head, so they were very embarrassed and shouted one big brother after another......

The second is that the script that was sold, whether it was created by the students collectively or written alone, when it was sold, Qin Jian replaced the playwright with his own name.

This can be regarded as a naked theft.

The students were happy to know that the script had been sold, but they didn't know that someone had changed the author's name.

When the movie was released two or three months later, they rushed into the cinema to take a look, only to find that the screenwriter column had the word 'Qin Jian' written in big letters.

In this regard, Qin Jian's explanation is that their names are not as famous as the word 'Qin Jian'.

With his Qin Jian's name written on the script, not only is the script easier to sell, but the price is also higher.

These students who have just entered the society are so simple-minded that they believe this nonsense, and they all quieted down and continued to write their scripts.

It's just that these words can be deceived for a while, but they can't be deceived for a lifetime......

After these students wrote like this for more than a year, they also became social, and slowly became less foolish.

First of all, the price of the script was discovered, and then there was a big fuss in the screenwriter team.

Qin Jian hadn't suppressed this matter yet, and something happened over there again.

It turned out that there was a college student who wrote a script, but he didn't give it to Qin Jian, and sold it alone.

This is worth it, and the group of stupid college students only found out at this time that Qin Jian was an evil capitalist and thief.

One by one, they were filled with righteous indignation, and asked Qin Jian to give an explanation!

But Qin Jian has not had any good intentions since the formation of this screenwriter group, and he has handled it cleanly, how can he be afraid of this group of helpless stupid students.

On the one hand, there is no fear, and on the other hand, there is no evidence, and both parties have nothing to do with each other.

So in the end, the screenwriter team broke up unhappily.

It's just that at this time, Qin Jian became famous because of the good writing of the script, and he had already begun to move to the position of director.

The dissolution of the screenwriting team did not have much impact on him at all.

As for the group of college students, after all, not everyone is a screenwriter, except for one or two who are still insisting, the others have already gone their separate ways.

Presumably, what Yang Qiu met the day before yesterday was the one who was still insisting on it.

"Qin Jian is a person with acceptable overall planning ability, and he also has screenwriting ability. ”

Wang Tianlin said a story from the past and concluded: "But this script, I don't think he wrote it, is too different from most of Qin Jian's previous scripts. ”

"That ......"

"It shouldn't have been written by that student, otherwise with this quality, you wouldn't have pushed it after a glance at the new script. ”

Yang Qiu touched his chin and said curiously: "So it could be the collective creation of the screenwriter group?"

"I don't know. ”

Wang Tianlin shrugged his shoulders and continued: "I'm afraid that only Qin Jian himself is the one who makes this matter clear, maybe it's just that people changed their style on a whim." …… However, when it comes to the style of the script, ......"

Speaking of this, Wang Tianlin's eyes suddenly became strange, and he glanced at Yang Qiu several times up and down.

"What are you looking at?!" Yang Qiu felt a chill in his back.

"Aha, nothing, nothing. ”

Wang Tianlin scratched his head in embarrassment, and secretly scolded himself for talking too much in his heart.

What do you want to do so much, this milk is a mother.

Forgot?
