The preparation of "Ah Baby" actually began a long time ago.

Since Hu Jinquan helped Li Hanxiang finish filming "The Dragon and the Phoenix", Yang Qiu has painted a large stack of crude design sketches, and stuffed a bunch of albums such as "The Twelve Portraits of the Ming Dynasty" and "Xie Tingxun's Painting of the Apricot Garden" to him.

Of course, Hu Jinquan is asked to design a realistic set of ancient costumes.

At this time, the costume design of costume films, due to the large-scale popularity of Cantonese fragments, compared with the costume films of the thirties and forties, there is a trend of regression as a whole.

At least in historical costume films such as "Confucius" and "Diao Chan" filmed in the thirties, the costumes and props are quite elegant and normal, and they look very eye-catching.

However, in the mid-to-late 40s, the large-scale popularity of Cantonese fragments, especially the monster films and martial arts films in them, led to a shortage of costumes and props, and they began to be shoddy.

A lot of them are taken directly in the Peking Opera props.

Don't change it!

The most obvious example is Cao Dahua's "The Palm of the Gods" filmed more than ten years later, in which the costumes were all directly pulled out of the costumes of Peking Opera, and then changed and used casually.

You say that these things are used to make drama movies, so it's fine, but when they are used to make a real costume film, Yang Qiu can't bear it.

So the task was handed over to Hu Jinquan.

For Hu Jinquan, a Ming fan who can shoot such an exquisite work as "Dragon Gate Inn", and even influenced the design of Ming clothing in the next half century, Yang Qiu believes that even if he is more than ten years in advance, with some ideas provided by himself, he will definitely be able to provide a perfect answer.

Moreover, compared with "Dragon Gate Inn", the costume design task of "A Baby" is not heavy.

In addition to the fast clothes, county uniforms, and three or four pieces of women's clothing, the others are some ordinary people's daily clothes. Compared with the research data required for the hierarchical flying fish suits and fan suits in the later generations of "Dragon Gate Inn", I am afraid that they are extremely easy.

So after two months of three revisions, the costumes and props of "A Baby" have already taken shape.

On the actors' side, with the addition of all kinds of people, the crew was also completed.

The heroine Ah Ying is played by Xia Meng, who is seeking a breakthrough in acting; Ah Ying's father, the county magistrate, found an old acquaintance Wang Yuanlong; her husband Wu Juren is played by Chen Youxin; Huo Dutou, who has always had a crush on Ah Ying, was handed over to Bao Fang; Xian Xiaozai, a short and clever merchant, was sent to Hu Jinquan, who played a big bull in "Dragon Scene".

As for the other catcher, it was handed over to Li Ying, who came to the door.

The great director finally lowered his head in front of reality.

And Ah Ying's mother and her lover fake Taoist green belly were handed over to Cheng Gang, who was in love with adultery and was planning to get married.

It's just that......

In the drama "A Baby", Xiong Yan, the most beautiful character on the surface, has never found anyone.

Yang Qiu is not without candidates.

It's just that as soon as others saw this role setting, they refused directly in person without thinking about it.

In recent years, there have been people playing the opposite and supporting roles and bad roles, but this is the only one that basically no one dares to play.

The influence of the state is much more than a single bad corner.

In the history of Chinese films, there has never been such a role at this time.

Well, let's be honest......

The role of Xiong Yan, in Yang Qiu's opinion, is not as powerful as "Human Meat Barbecued Pork Bun".

It can only be said that people in this era are still too unimaginable.

After turning around and not finding a candidate, Yang Qiu gritted his teeth, and finally decided to go on his own.

Anyway, he won't have to beg for a life in the future.

So in early March, the crew of "A Baby", which had been prepared, officially entered the Golden Harvest studio.

Yang Qiu's new movie has been launched.

Of course, there are a bunch of bits and pieces on the set, so let's skip it for now.

At the same time, in the tabloids of Xiangjiang, the news of the enrollment of Golden Harvest Performing Arts Training Class was also published.

Our unemployed vagrant, Mr. Xi Chongjian, naturally also saw this enrollment brochure.

So early this morning, Xi Chongjian took a copy of "Xiangjiang Times" and came to the Sihao Hotel.

His eldest brother Qiao Hong, before he left him in South Korea, found a job as a customer service manager in the Sihao Hotel, which is dominated by foreigners.

With his excellent language skills, Qiao Hong is mixing like a fish in water.

"Brother Qiao Hong, what do you think I should try?" In the guest seat in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel, Xi Chongjian nodded at Qiao Hong with a newspaper and asked very sincerely.

Ask Qiao Hong if he doesn't decide to do anything, this is a habit he developed in aviation school for a year.

On the other hand, Qiao Hong still had a wooden face, blinked his eyes and said, "You can try it, what manager of the Great Wall, doesn't it mean that you have this condition." ”

"Really?" asked Xi Zhongjian unconfidently.

To be honest, Xi Chongjian has been hit a bit hard in the past two months.

Originally, his sister Xi Chongyi was supposed to graduate this year, but the family's economy was not good, and the girl didn't plan to go to school. So it is foreseeable that after Xi Chongyi graduates, at least for a period of time, he should have the same state of being an unemployed vagrant.

When the time comes, he can also have a reason to make fun of the arrogant little girl.

But......

Before he graduated, Xi Chongyi had already found a job.

Xi Chongjian received 10,000 critical hits!

To say that Xi Chongjian's youngest sister Xi Chongyi is really much more angry than his brother. Not to mention studying, this is about to graduate, Xi Chongyi actually went to the Great Wall by himself and recommended himself.

Not to mention the self-recommendation, I even passed.

At the age of fifteen, before he reached adulthood, he suddenly became the youngest employee of Great Wall.

When Yuan Yangyu, the manager of the Great Wall, came to sign the contract, Xi Chongjian and his grandmother were still in a state of confusion.

Maybe it's because Yuan Yangyan's love for talent is overflowing, or Xi Chongjian looks really good, when signing the contract, Yuan Yangyan also pointed to Xi Chongjian and said to his grandmother: "Your third grandson also has conditions, you can come and give it a try." ”

Then, Xi Chongjian refused.

As for why......

First, if it weren't for the Red Party, Xi Chongjian would still be a son-in-law in the magic capital, and he wouldn't be so down-and-out, so in his heart, he doesn't like the Great Wall;

Second, he fell in love with him when the Great Wall signed his sister, which made him always throw him there with the self-esteem of his brother.

Therefore, this Great Wall has not been completed.

But seeing that her sister had found a job and became more and more arrogant in front of her, Xi Chongjian became more and more anxious.

It's just that he doesn't have long skills, and there is no way to do it when he is in a hurry.

At this moment, Xi Chongjian saw Golden Harvest's enrollment announcement, and remembered the words of the Great Wall manager, like a man in the water grasping a life-saving straw.

I always wanted to give it a try.

It's just that he has always lacked self-confidence, but he has never had the courage to take that step.

"Really. Qiao Hong nodded, frowned expressionlessly, and glanced at Xi Chongjian carefully, only then did he seem to be relieved: "Well, really." ”

“……”

It's really true, what are you frowning about!

Xi Chongjian was stunned by Qiao Hong, who rarely showed expression on his face, but he became more and more uncertain in his heart.

"I, I ......"

After stammering twice, Xi Chongjian shook his legs and glanced at the newspaper in his hand, and after thinking about it, he suddenly rolled up the newspaper at random, gritted his teeth and said: "Forget it, I won't go, it's okay if I don't go, it's okay to go, but it's really embarrassing." ”

"Brother Qiao Hong, I'll go home first if it's okay, I'll ...... next time"

"I'll go with you. ”

"What?!"

As soon as Xi Chongjian stood up and was about to run away, his words were interrupted by Qiao Hong on the other side, feeling that he seemed to have heard poorly, he asked in amazement.

Qiao Hong frowned slightly and did not answer, gently pulled the newspaper that Xi Chongjian rolled up in his hand and wanted to throw it, slowly smoothed it out while unfolding it, and said quietly without raising his head:

"I'll go with you. ”
