Chapter 962: Buffet Party [Second Shift]

Lizhi changed her clothes and took Lin Youlun's arm to the elevator to the banquet hall on the third floor of the hotel, and before she entered the door, she saw Ajie talking with a man in a tunic over there.

Seeing Lin Youlun and Li Zhi coming over, Applejack hurriedly introduced the man next to him.

"This is my boss and Mr. Lin Youlun, who is also the investor of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling". Next to me is Miss Lizhi, who is my boss's business partner. ”

"Mr. Lin, Miss Li, hello!" The middle-aged man took the initiative to reach out and say hello.

Lin Youlun stared at the middle-aged man twice, "You are Teacher Li Youyun, right?" ”

Li Youyun hurriedly waved his hand, "What kind of teacher is not a teacher, I can't afford the title of teacher in front of Mr. Lin, just call me Lao Li." ”

"Then I'll call you Mr. Li according to the custom in Hong Kong."

Although Mr. still sounds a little awkward, Li Youyun is not so bad that he refuses.

At this time, Li Zhi interjected: "Mr. Li used to be a soldier? ”

Li Youyun asked curiously, "What, does Miss Li think I look like a soldier?" ”

Lizhi nodded, "It's a bit similar in terms of temperament and demeanor." ”

Li Youyun laughed when she heard this: "Being a soldier has always been my dream, but unfortunately this dream has not been realized in the last place, and then I became a drama actor." ”

"I see!" Li Zhi quickly exchanged glances with Lin Youlun, and continued: "Actually, Mr. Li doesn't have to regret it, although you can't be a soldier in reality, but you can play a soldier in the movie, which can be regarded as a realization of your dream in disguise." ”

The smile on Li Youyun's face became brighter and brighter. "Actually, I think so too. So this time I have to thank Mr. Lin. It was he who provided me with such an opportunity to go to the battlefield to fight devils! ”

Lin Youlun asked with a smile: "So Mr. Li has already met with the director?" ”

"I've seen it, he roughly described his thoughts through a translator, and then gave me the feeling that this is not filming at all, but really asking the actors to go to the battlefield to fight hard."

Li Youyun briefly described the meeting he had just met with Spielberg, and he felt that the idea of an American director was really incomprehensible, but as an actor who always consciously demanded himself as a soldier, since he took over the role, he would do what the director said.

"Mr. Lee will understand when the movie is made. Director, he's not kidding you! Lin Youlun talked to Spielberg about this issue before, Spielberg is going to have a war scene of about 15 minutes at the beginning of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", in order to restore the battlefield in the most realistic way, the crew has begun to collect various weapons used by the Kuomintang army and the Japanese army at the same time, and then in Nanshan Cinema in Shenzhen, a partial street scene of Nanjing City of the same scale is already under construction, and then these scenes will all be blown up in this war scene, which is equivalent to saying that all the sets are one-time use, This also shows Spielberg's persistent interest in this war drama.

Lin Youlun also learned later that Spielberg was filming this war scene. He was actually preparing for his next film, "Saving Private Ryan", and some of his ideas in "Saving Private Ryan". It was also put in this movie in advance.

Li Youyun's role is the Kuomintang officer who defended Nanjing City in the film, after all his subordinates died, he was wounded and hid in the church, and finally stood up and sacrificed his life in order to save the female students who also took refuge in the church.

At this time, Li Youyun was only a little-known actor in the Changchun Repertory Theatre, but when Lin Youlun was considering the candidate for this role, the first thing that came to mind was him.

The accumulation of experience in long-term stage performances makes Li Youyun very good at the inner experience of the characters, and the characters who are portrayed are flesh and blood, whether they are positive or negative, they are not face-painted, giving people a sense of authenticity and credibility.

Li Youyun was not dissatisfied with his role, but after meeting Lin Youlun, he made a suggestion.

"Mr. Lin, I think that in such a film that reflects China's major historical events, there is only the Kuomintang army and no Communist Party. Isn't the figure of the party army a little unpleasant? The main reason is that I used to play the role of a villain in the Kuomintang, and suddenly the Kuomintang has become a decent character, and I always feel a little uncomfortable! ”

Lin Youlun took the champagne brought by Applejack, and just took a sip, when he heard Li Youyun's words, he almost couldn't help but squirt out the wine, and some of the wine choked into the trachea, making him cough for a while.

Li Zhi helped pat him on the back, and it took a while for Lin Youlun to breathe.

He wiped his mouth with a piece of paper, and then explained to Li Youyun a little helplessly: "Mr. Lin, I can understand your thoughts, but we must respect the basic history. Even the history textbooks on the mainland admit that the Kuomintang army made great contributions on the frontal battlefield during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and a large number of national heroes emerged. ”

When Lin Youlun said this, Li Youyun also felt that his ideas were too abrupt.

"Mr. Lin, you are right, now the state also advocates that the Kuomintang in different periods should be treated differently, and the Kuomintang during the two KMT-CCP cooperation periods were good, and we cannot generalize about them."

Lin Youlun decisively gave up the idea of continuing to talk to Li Youyun on this topic, and after chatting for a few words, he asked Ajie to continue to accompany Li Youyun, and he and Li Zhi took the opportunity to get out.

"I didn't expect that there are still people in the mainland who have this kind of idea, it's really rare." Li Zhi held the wine glass and said with emotion.

Lin Youlun shrugged, "This person's thinking is a little rough, but his acting skills are not rough at all, and I feel more and more that it is a very hard decision to ask him to act in this movie." ”

Li Zhi suddenly changed her words, "So you also found those women over there?" ”

Lin Youlun followed Lizhi's gaze and found that Fu Yiwei, Wang Ji and Song Shu were standing and talking together not far away, but they didn't see Yu Feihong and Jiang Yuqin.

"Which one are you referring to?" Lin Youlun deliberately pretended to be confused.

Lizhi glared at him angrily: "What do you say? ”

"Okay, the three of them are all people with husbands and children, and I came here just to film, that's all!" Lin Youlun knew that explaining too much would cause misunderstandings, so he simply said it simply.

With such an explanation, Li Zhi really didn't continue to hold on to this matter, and at this time, the three of them also discovered their existence, and then walked over together.

Song Shu, who was walking in the front, smiled and asked, "Mr. Lin, don't you want to introduce us to your beautiful girlfriend?" ”

Lin Youlun was about to answer, but Li Zhi introduced herself first, and emphasized that she and Lin Youlun were just business partners.

"It's a business partner in a formal setting, and a girlfriend in private." Lin Youlun's addition made Lizhi happy and angry, and after glancing at him, he acquiesced to this statement.

Hearing that Lizhi was investing in open real estate in Pudong, Song Shu didn't have much reaction, and Fu Yiwei and Wang Ji both had some changes in their eyes.

Wang Ji's husband is doing business in the United States, and she herself knows some things in this regard, so she naturally knows what kind of concept it is to be able to develop real estate projects in Pudong New Area, even if it is a small piece of land, it is often hundreds of millions of capital investment, Li Zhi can do this step at a young age, and the relationship with Lin Youlun is not as simple as her boyfriend and girlfriend as she said.

Fu Yiwei also felt the same way, but she was more curious about Lizhi's experience, because she was also about to give up acting and become a businessman, and when she saw Lizhi, she always had the idea of wanting to have an in-depth exchange with her.

"You guys talk first, I'll go over there and say hello to the others." Lin Youlun gently patted Lizhi's back, and then left with a glass of wine.

Song Shu soon went to other places, and Wang Ji and Fu Yiwei both intended to stay and get close to Li Zhitao, so the three of them chatted without a word.

After learning that Lizhi was once the champion of the Miss Asia Hong Kong beauty pageant, and had been an actor for a period of time after that, Fu Yiwei's eyes lit up more and more, she felt that Lizhi's appearance was an opportunity for her, if she could make friends with her, her future business path would definitely be much smoother.

Wang Ji's husband is in the clothing business in the United States, and after chatting for a while, she can clearly sense that Li Zhi is not very interested in this aspect, and then she leaves with great interest.

Fu Yiwei chatted with Lizhi very closely, she told Lizhi that she wanted to do business but couldn't get her husband's understanding, and Lizhi kindly persuaded her that it was really not as easy for women to do business as she imagined.

Fu Yiwei was determined to take this path, and then kept asking Lizhi all kinds of questions.

Seeing Fu Yiwei's resolute attitude, Li Zhi combined her own experience and gave her some suggestions, and told Fu Yiwei that if she really wants to do business, it is best to go to Guangdong to give it a try, after all, it is the forefront of China's reform and opening up, the first to open up a country, and it is close to Hong Kong and Macao, with more opportunities and rich resources.

Just when the two women were communicating about these things, Lin Youlun had already spared a circle in the banquet hall, and saw that Spielberg was discussing the role issue with Yu Feihong and Jiang Yuqin, so he didn't go up to disturb.

Ajie, who was talking with Li Youyun, received Lin Youlun's hint in his eyes, found an excuse to get out, and followed Lin Youlun out of the banquet room, thinking that Lin Youlun had something to tell him to do, but he didn't expect Lin Youlun's first sentence to make him dumbfounded.
