Chapter 234: Zhang Cuiying
Shui Zhen's family name is Zhao, originally called Zhao Shuizhen, but she lost her mother when she was a child, so her father fostered her in her aunt's house. Wang Yuanlong looked at the visitor from a distance, and explained in a soft voice: "Because my brother-in-law's surname is Lu, I changed my name to Lu Huiying." ”
When she was a child, she went to Yihua's studio with her friends to watch and shoot movies, but she didn't expect to be caught by Yihua's boss Yan Chuntang, and thus stepped into the film industry. At that time, Yihua's classical beauty Zhang Cuihong was in the middle of her voice, and Boss Yan saw that this little girl was somewhat similar to Zhang Cuihong, so he gave her a stage name Zhang Cuiying. ”
"Zhang Cuiying?"
Yang Qiu muttered and thought about it, but finally shook his head and found nothing.
"Heh, sometimes I really wonder if you grew up in the mainland, why don't you even know anything about the film industry in the magic capital. Wang Yuanlong looked at Yang Qiu and sighed, and said with hatred.
Yang Qiu glanced at him and said straightly: "When I was in the mainland, I didn't like to watch movies very much. ”
“……”
Wang Yuanlong was choked, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then what do you like to do?!"
"Listen to cross talk. ”
"Cross talk?" Wang Yunlong paused for a moment, then pulled Yang Qiu's arm and asked, "Is it from Ma Sanli and Geng Baolin, or from Hou Baolin and Guo Qiru?" or the older Liu Dezhi and Jiao Dehai?"
The corners of Yang Qiu's mouth twitched slightly, looking at Wang Yuanlong, who broke the casserole and asked to the end, he pouted and said, "No, I listen to Guo Degang and Yu Qian!"
“……”
Wang Yuanlong saw that Yang Qiu said sincerely, and he didn't even suspect that these two names were fake, but he frowned and thought about it for a long time, but he never found anything in his mind.
"Who are Guo Degang and Yu Qian? Why haven't I heard of it?" After half a sound, Wang Yuanlong asked a little tangled.
"Hehe, those two are just non-mainstream cross talk actors, they can't be on the big stage, they can only run around the small field, it's normal that you haven't heard of it, so you don't need to dig deeper. ”
“……”
Yihua Film Company, founded in 1932 by Yan Chuntang, was established in the magic capital.
The head of the company's screenwriting review committee is the famous Tian Han.
Since its establishment, Yihua Company has been based on the production of high-quality films, and has shot dozens of progressive films such as "The Angry Tide of the China Sea", "National Survival", "Lament of Life", "Golden Age", "Triumphant Song" and so on.
What's even more rare is that this film company has also become popular with many movie stars.
For example, Li Lihua's fame is because Yihua filmed "Three Smiles" that fought in the ring with Zhou Xuan; for example, Zhang Cuihong, mentioned above, also became famous because of starring in costume dramas in Yihua; and Wang Yuanlong, who stood next to Yang Qiu, his nickname of "Silver Overlord" was only after Yihua filmed "Overlord of Chu".
Such an excellent film company should have developed quite well, but unfortunately in 1941, the magic capital fell, and Yihua was forced to close.
After nine years of silence......
In the middle of 1950, Yan Chuntang's son and well-known director Yan Youxiang re-established Yihua Film Company in Xiangjiang.
The current Yihua Pictures only produces one or two movies a year, and it has long been reduced to an ordinary film company.
Until the end of Yihua's 41 years, Li Lihua and Zhang Cuiying were all film actors of Yihua, and the two also collaborated on films such as "Lady of the New Camellias", "Rose Drifting", "Resurrection", etc., and after Yihua graduated, the two collaborated on several movies such as "Lingbo Fairy" and "Autumn".
The two are out of the same school, and they have made so many movies together, so there is no need to say much about their familiarity.
However, although Zhang Cuiying has made a lot of movies, they are basically small supporting roles of second-rate characters, which are not very outstanding, and the only two starring roles in "School Scenery" and "The Thief in Black" have also received mediocre responses, and they have never made her popular.
On the eve of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Zhang Cuiying saw that her career was hopeless, so she stopped marrying.
I just don't know why I appeared in Xiangjiang again at this time?
Li Lihua's popularity is not low, and Tong Yuejuan is the hostess of this celebration banquet, so naturally she provoked the crowd around her to wait and hug her, and the one who walked was called slow.
During the greeting of the three girls, Li Lihua glanced at Yang Qiu, and suddenly saw a happy look on her face, so she attracted Zhang Cuiying next to her to go straight over.
"Boss Yang!"
There were still two seats in the middle, and Li Lihua raised his hand to greet him.
Maybe he knew the news that Yang Qiu was going to build a theater, Li Lihua's title was a little raw at the moment, Yang Qiu stood up and smiled bitterly at her: "Sister Xiaomi, you can see the boss when you call it!"
"Oh, then what should I call it?" Li Lihua glanced at Yang Qiu, looked at Xia Meng next to him and nodded: "Brother and sister, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
This title immediately made Xia Meng's face red, and his head was buried slightly shyly.
"Hello Sister Mi. ”
However, he still responded softly, and the mosquito groaned weakly.
Li Lihua teased the little two, but she was quite satisfied, pulled Zhang Cuiying next to her, and introduced to the two: "Brother, this lady is my godsister when I was in the magic capital, called Zhang Cuiying, according to your age, you have to call Sister Ying." ”
“……”
It's a!
Zhang Cuiying was slightly embarrassed, so she nodded lightly to Yang Qiu.
Yang Qiu didn't care, looked at her and smiled: "Hey, since it's Sister Xiaomi's sister, it's naturally my sister, cough well, hello Sister Ying." ”
"Hello Boss Yang. Zhang Cuiying let go at this time and replied politely.
Li Lihua looked at the two of them officially greeting each other, and immediately said happily: "Okay, okay, everyone knows each other now." By the way, brother, my sister took the liberty to ask, are you still short of people in Jiahe?"
"What?" Yang Qiu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Sister Mi, someone wants to introduce?"
"Of course. ”
Li Lihua nodded without hesitation, pulled Zhang Cuiying beside her and said, "Look, how about our sister Ying go to your place to be a special actor?"
"This ......" Yang Qiu looked at the two girls in front of him, and hesitated for a while: "Sister Xiaomi, is this a little too wronged Sister Ying?"
The special actor said that it sounds good, that is, he is a high-level trick, and his status is not as good as a supporting role.
For Zhang Cuiying's previous identity, it is indeed a bit downgraded, at least she was a starring actor before.
Looking at the relationship between Li and Zhang, how dare Yang Qiu respond to this.
But as soon as Yang Qiu's words came out, Zhang Cuiying straightened her waist, looked at him and said firmly: "Boss Yang, don't worry, I can also be a special actor." ”
"Look, our sister's stubbornness has been committed again. Li Lihua smiled bitterly and said: "Brother, don't see outside, Cui Ying is so stubborn in some things, she came to Xiangjiang alone last month, I wanted her to live with me for a while, but she was pushed away, saying that she didn't want to cause me trouble, so she had to rent a house outside." ”
"Sister Mi......" Zhang Cuiying muttered softly beside her.
"Alright, I know your temper. ”
Li Lihua patted Zhang Cuiying's hand, looked at Yang Qiu and said: "Brother, let's be honest, if it weren't for Boss Zhang, as long as he starred, I wouldn't have found you, after all, you also did me a great favor some time ago, but Cuiying is really lonely, I can only look for you first, what do you think?"
Yang Qiu nodded in understanding, and replied with a smile: "Since it is our sister, of course there is no problem, Jiahe is now a Pepsi to be enjoyed, and even more people can stand it, not to mention a talent like Sister Ying." ”
Jiahe is now counted in the whole company, there are less than 140 people, which is less than half of Yonghua's heyday.
Although Zhang Cuiying is not the life of the protagonist, it is more than enough to play a supporting role, a special actor or something.
After the start of the actor training class, what Golden Harvest lacked was these supporting actors.
After all, a movie basically only has a pair of male and female protagonists, but there are dozens of supporting roles.
What's more, it's a supporting actress.
Hearing Yang Qiu's answer, Li Lihua was overjoyed, and pulled Zhang Cuiying and smiled: "How is it? ”
"Thank you, Sister Xiaomi, thank you, Boss Yang!" Zhang Cuiying covered her nose and cried with some joy.
"Thank you, thank you, no thanks. Li Lihua looked at her godsister's face, and sincerely comforted: "You, hurry up and settle down your life and career with peace of mind, and then take the cat over as soon as possible, I don't worry about her being alone in the magic capital." ”
"Cat?" Yang Qiu said curiously.
Looking at Yang Qiu's inexplicable face, Li Lihua suddenly chuckled and explained: "The cat is Cui Ying's daughter's nickname, my goddaughter. ”
"Oh-" Yang Qiu nodded abruptly and asked, "Sister Xiaomi, did you give this nickname?"
"Well, you guessed it. ”
