Siqin Gaowa, who has just finished working on the 30-episode TV series "Sunset Forbidden City" directed by Guo Baochang, is not as powerful as a TV character, and she is in trouble. For her, it's even a little inexplicable. Recently, a text message was reprinted by major newspapers on People's Daily Online, saying that two debt collectors were accused of illegally imprisoning and beating the director who acted as an intermediary for helping Siqin Gaowa recover HK$280,000 in "Sunny Days" from a famous Hong Kong agent and director Wen Jun.

She only found out after watching the briefing, and it was completely harmful to the pond fish.

As one of the few artists of the older generation in China, they are all true artists who cherish feathers very much. Since "something happened", it was natural to quickly clarify, and hurriedly found the media to explain: "Basically, I haven't seen each other for more than a year, and we haven't even talked to each other on the phone, and I feel so sad and sorry that this happened......

After explaining it clearly, I finally got out. But the most depressing thing is that she has not received a penny so far, and she has caused a commotion and bad luck. I wonder if I should go back to Switzerland to take a break.

"Jingle Bell~~"

The phone rang suddenly, and it was the agent calling, "Teacher Siqin Gaowa, I received a movie script here, and people want to ask you to play the heroine." ”

Siqin Gaowa rubbed her eyebrows and asked, "Have you read the script, hand it to me when you have time." Who is the director and which company's films? ”

"A newly founded Mountain & Sea studio. The director is a young man who looks like he is only seventeen or eighteen years old, maybe a little older, I heard that he graduated from the directing department of USC, but I have never heard of it before. ”

She was stunned for a moment, "Graduated from the directing department of USC at the age of seventeen or eighteen?" Isn't that nonsense. Okay, Kodaka, I'm planning to go back to Switzerland to rest for a while and spend time with my family, so I'll push the script for me. ”

Hung up the phone, and she didn't take it to heart.

A few days later, at noon, she habitually carried a vegetable basket to a nearby vegetable market to buy a few side dishes and came back, humming a little song along the way to greet everyone in the neighborhood who she recognized and recognized her. From a distance, this is simply an ordinary aunt with no star shelf.

It's just that she couldn't understand why the young man who was staring at her all the time and seemed very rude not far away came here.

Movie fan?

The calm look in his eyes doesn't look like it at all.

Acquaintance?

She was sure she had never seen the face before.

Do you want to rob?

It is not impossible for young people who can't continue to work in Beijing to take risks.

Siqin Gaowa is quietly speculating about the identity of Happy, but Happy is looking at others directly: from the soft and atmospheric Yuzhen to the vulgar and pungent tiger girl; from the miserable and tragic second sister-in-law to the humorous and witty aunt; from the party member Erleng's mother who is a small person at the bottom to the empress Wu Zetian who lives in the court; From the graceful and atmospheric mansion door ** milk to the northwest lady in the countryside of Lanzhou; She is also foreign and earthy, beautiful and ugly, vulgar and elegant......

The older she gets, the more irreplaceable her status is in the unique one-acre and three-point land in the film and television industry.

"Teacher Siqin Gaowa, can I talk to you for a while?" Happy shouted loudly, with calmness in his tone.

"You are?" Siqin Gaowa asked cautiously.

"My name is Xingxing, I am the owner of the Mountain and Sea Film and Television Animation Studio, and I am also a film director, and I am currently preparing the company's first film." Happily smiling and stretching out his hand, he shook hands with the confused Siqin Gaowa very formally, and then took out a business card from his pocket and gave it to him with both hands, "This is my business card." ”

Siqin Gaowa took the business card suspiciously, the printing was very beautiful, there were mountains and rivers and a strange-looking panda, "President of Mountain and Sea Film and Television Animation Studio, happy." ”

Whether in life or work, Siqin Gaowa is very approachable, although she is still a little suspicious at this time, she does not believe too much in this young man who is obviously not as old as her own son but claims to be the owner of the film company, and she still greets her very politely.

"Hello...... Open the boss. ”

The corners of Xingxing's mouth are upturned, and his thick eyebrows are slightly bent down, revealing a shy smile of a young man, which makes people feel good immediately when they see it. He knows how to take advantage of his "cuteness", even though the term is not yet popular.

"Just call me a little open. You may not have heard of the name 'Mountain & Sea Studio', which was newly registered this summer. I contacted you on the recommendation of Professor Mao, and I have also contacted your agent before, but I was rejected. That's why I came to the door myself, hoping that I would have a chance to talk to you about my film? ”

"Professor Mao, the old man Mao of Chinese opera?! Why didn't you say it earlier. Siqin Gaowa then remembered the phone call, and it turned out that the owner had come to the door. I completely realized that I had misunderstood others, and with apologies, my tone was much more enthusiastic, and I said: "It's so polite, and I'm tired of running over by myself." ”

How could Old Man Mao build a middle beam to introduce actors to him? At most, they just talked about a lot of things in the domestic film and television industry, not to mention recommendations and introductions. Happy is in the circle, but there is only this slightly overlapping relationship, and now it doesn't have to expire, so he doesn't dislike it. smiled and said, "Teacher Siqin Gaowa, you still call me Xiaoxiaokai." 'Kai Zong' or something, just throw it on Mars, but I can't stand it. ”

"Look at what you said, it's called Xiao Kai......"

"That's not going to work, let's open it a little. Xiao Kai is my father's bandit, and Lao Kai is calling me grandpa, I don't dare to rob it. ”

"Yo, you're a special bandit. Please come inside and talk. ”

Entering the room and sitting down, Happy took out a script from his backpack and put it on the coffee table, and then took a sip of the teacup in a hurry. One big and one small chattered and forgot about business, happy and intentionally pleased, and after a while, they were already affectionately calling Auntie.

Pulling in the relationship means that the matter is half done.

"Tell you the truth, Aunt Siqin Gaowa. I don't think there's anyone in the country who is more suitable for this role than you. We plan to present this film at the Berlin Film Festival next year, so we are a little tight on time. Maybe this role will help you win the Silver Bear for Best Actress at the Berlin Film Festival again. ”

Siqin Gaowa is from the past after all, how could he be coaxed by a young man to find the north in a few words, "But I see how this character is not like a good person, and he can be so cold-blooded to children." ”

Happy and dizzy, where is not like a good person? can only patiently explain: "This is a road-themed movie, about the mental journey." The heroine and the little boy's journey to find their father is also a process of spiritual transformation. It's helping others, and it's saving yourself. ”

"In this world, there is no love for no reason. Especially a lonely woman, who has only another woman in her life who cannot be married, do you think that her morals are inherently noble to the point of being exemplary to the people? ”

Happy tone remained the same, without too much expectation or anxiety, and continued calmly and orderly, "This is in line with reality, people are more willing to help others after they are rich." Do you think that's the case? ”

Hearing him explain like this, Siqin Gaowa also thought slightly, but had to admit that she was persuaded by happiness.

"It's a very fresh story idea, which is different from previous art films. I'm willing to play this role. ”

Standing up happily and smiling: "Welcome to join, I hope this film can become a strong stroke in the history of Chinese film." I believe we can do it. Siqin Gaowa smiled, "I don't have such a big ambition, only playing this role well is what I want to do." Leave the rest to you young people. ”

After solving the heroine with the biggest problem, she should be happy to be happy, but her expression suddenly twisted, "Aunt Siqin Gaowa, that ......"

"What's wrong, what's the difficulty? Since I have promised to take on this role, it is from the same crew, you can just say it if you can help. ”

Happy continued to look constipated, and said: "That's right, we are just a small production company, and the film budget is limited. As for the salary, you see ......"

"You little slippery head, feelings are waiting for me here." Siqin Gaowa smiled and said, "Fold, it's considered to support the film career of young directors." ”

Siqin Gaowa's current salary is about 300,000 yuan, which is halved as soon as he opens his mouth, which is equivalent to saving a budget of 150,000 yuan, which is not something that ordinary people can put down. She was so generous, but she was embarrassed to be happy, but the money was in her pocket, and he would never go back again.

Only the male protagonist is left, and several members of the crew are now looking for the male protagonist in the Beijing Division, and the news has been released in all primary schools, attracting parents with a high salary of more than 10,000 yuan.

Making movies is a foreign thing, not to mention that you can earn tens of thousands of salaries, who is not impressed. Many parents dress up their children to join in the fun. A week passed, and the little boys they had seen between the ages of 7 and 10 were not 1,000 but 800, and they finally found a suitable one.

The little boy's name is Xiaokang, he is nine years old this year, and he is a little older. But malnutrition doesn't look much different from a seven-year-old. The parents are both bricklayers who come to Beijing to work, and they may care less, and they have developed a stubborn character with an indifferent face. But it's precocious, at least he won't say anything he doesn't understand, which is also the most ideal character.

"Boss, everything is ready, you can choose an auspicious day to start the machine."

Zhang Zhengwu looked at the full page of the preparation list, and now it was full of red checkmarks, reminding him to be happy.

Bai Xiaoya also sighed, "It's really not easy, it's the first time I know that preparing a movie will be so tiring." But it's finally done, and I feel a sense of accomplishment. ”

Happiness is also full of a sense of achievement, but as a pillar, he can't let people relax at this time, "A movie is just the beginning, and there will be more things in the future." Let's not relax, let's take it all at once. Xiaobai, you do the final confirmation and coordination. Lao Zhang, you will invite everyone in the crew to Dashilar Happy Teahouse for a meal tomorrow, the day after tomorrow happens to be an auspicious day of the zodiac, and we will start the train on time at 8 o'clock in the morning at the Nanjing-Beijing Central Gate Station. ”

"Okay."
