may ask, Cao Zhiqiang has been doing a lot of things recently, especially his current main direction is to release records, why did he think about making movies again? Isn't that too hasty?

Frankly speaking, Cao Zhiqiang never thought about making movies, at least he didn't consider entering the film and television field in the near future, but who makes the plan not as fast as the change.

In fact, when it comes to making movies, we have to talk about the roots, and we have to talk about a dinner five days ago.

At that time, Cao Zhiqiang had just finished recording all the songs of the album "Blooming Life", and it was the most relaxing time, so he planned to take advantage of that time to deal with the affairs of Qinghong's father Wu Zemin, that is, to get him to Shanghai, and the province was hanging around the capital every day, hindering him from getting together with Qinghong.

But since Cao Zhiqiang has nothing to do with Shanghai, he can only find the leaders of the capital to see if there is a way.

In fact, the best way is to find Yu Deshui for help, but Yu Deshui has a special relationship with himself, and he has always regarded Cao Zhiqiang as a quasi-son-in-law, so Cao Zhiqiang is not easy to find Yu Deshui.

If Yu Deshui knew about Wu Zemin, and then knew about Wu Qinghong through Wu Zemin, it would be terrible.

Although Cao Zhiqiang has not really given Yu Yuanyuan a thorough understanding now, he can be regarded as giving Yu Yuanyuan to the golden house, and Yu Deshui has always regarded Cao Zhiqiang as a quasi-son-in-law, and has always thought that Cao Zhiqiang's temporary non-disclosure of his relationship with Yu Yuanyuan is for the sake of his career.

Therefore, Yu Deshui didn't know about Qinghong, and conversely, Wu Zemin also didn't know about Yu Yuanyuan.

It's best if these two families don't know each other, if the two families know each other, that's the real Shura field.

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang could not find those familiar urban leaders through Yu Deshui's relationship, but had to ask Secretary Dong of the machinery factory for help to see if he knew any leaders who could help him.

Then one day, Secretary Dong suddenly found him and asked Cao Zhiqiang to attend a dinner with him, saying that he had invited a director of the Ministry of Culture to dinner, and people could help with this.

During this period, when looking for someone to do something, they all ate and talked at the dinner, so finding someone to do something was to invite guests to dinner.

Since this is the case, of course Cao Zhiqiang readily agreed.

For this reason, Cao Zhiqiang also specially asked his sister Cao Jiajia to book the largest private room in "Food for the Sky", and also gave some high-end ingredients such as abalone ginseng wings and hump bear's paws in advance, so that Silly Zhu could prepare in advance.

On the night of the dinner, Secretary Dong really called the leader of the Ministry of Culture.

However, the leader did not come by himself, and there were two men and a woman with him.

The two men were just that, but the woman, Cao Zhiqiang recognized it at a glance, wasn't that Zhu Lin, the daughter of the emperor's brother, the king of the country.

After that, everyone introduced each other first, during which Cao Zhiqiang found out that the woman was really actor Zhu Lin.

Zhu Lin is also a famous actor now, of course, it can't be compared with his later fame.

Now the most famous young actress in the mainland must be Cong Shan who plays Li Xiuzhi in "Wrangler", followed by Ding Lan who plays the shepherdesss in "Shaolin Temple", and then Pan Hong and Gong Xue.

To put it simply, in this period, the five golden flowers of each of the four major film studios are the most dazzling female stars of this era.

As for Zhu Lin, he is still almost on fire, and he can only be said to have just emerged.

It can be said that in addition to Cao Zhiqiang during this period, not many people really value Zhu Lin, even if there is a circle of actresses in Beijing, it is the five golden flowers of Beijing Film Studio and the five golden flowers of the factory that are more famous.

By the way, Liu Xiaoqing, one of the five golden flowers of Beijing Film Studio, is filming the movie "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace" in Beijing at this time, and he is still a liar who co-produced with Xiangjiang, and now he is also a famous actor.

Of course, although Zhu Lin looks very good, she belongs to the role of Hua Dan who wins with her appearance at this time, but in Cao Zhiqiang's opinion, her appearance is just like that.

Anyway, in Cao Zhiqiang's opinion, Zhu Lin's appearance is not as good as Qinghong and Yu Yuanyuan, and even Hao Shuwen is not as good as Jin Xiuying.

In addition, Cao Zhiqiang is already a little anxious about men and women, so he really has no idea about others

Yes.

If you want to say that domestic female stars in this period can really play with their appearance, or they are really more beautiful than Qinghong and Yu Yuanyuan, I am afraid that it is Gong Xue and later Tao Huimin.

As for the others, including Cong Shan, Ding Lan, who is the hottest at this time, may be more famous, but in terms of appearance, Cao Zhiqiang is not cold at all.

Of course, this is just to say that in China, if you count Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea, then you can't say it.

In short, although actress Zhu Lin appeared at the dinner, Cao Zhiqiang paid a little attention, but that's it.

Simply talking about identity and net worth, Cao Zhiqiang and Zhu Lin at this time are already one heaven and one earth, not a class at all.

Not to mention anything else, Cao Zhiqiang can use the identity of the main escort to talk and laugh with Director Liu of the Ministry of Culture, but Zhu Lin can't, she was pulled to accompany her to eat.

To put it more bluntly, she is a vase to accompany eating, drinking, and socializing at this time.

As for whether there are other things, then Cao Zhiqiang is not good to ask, but I think it should not be.

After all, the mainland film and television industry in the 80s was relatively clean, mainly because of its conservative style and strict censorship, and the film studios were all state-owned enterprises, so the protection of actresses was still in place.

So unless the actress herself is not clean, there is such a thing as unspoken rules, at least in the early eighties, which is still rare in the hinterland, because it will be over if you find it.

Not to mention finding a real hammer, even if there is a rumor that there is no real hammer, it can ruin an actor.

For example, Gong Xue later, because of some rumors chasing the wind and shadows, had to leave the country at the best time of her career.

Of course, in this time and space, it is difficult to say whether Gong Xue can still be involved in that turmoil.

Therefore, Zhu Lin was able to appear at the dinner this time, I am afraid that he was not forced to eat and drink with him in the traditional sense, but more likely that people really came to socialize normally.

Because of the inland female stars in these years, regardless of their fame, in fact, their income is just like that, they are all paid dead wages, about fifty yuan.

As for what the box office is, what do you think, inland actors are not qualified to share any box office at this time, at most the box office is good, it would be good to give you some bonuses.

Inland female stars really began to rise, it had to be the nineties and eighties, it can only be said that it was an era of accumulating fame, don't think much about making money.

Therefore, inland female stars in this period really made money through other means, such as shooting magazine covers, calendar covers or something.

It is precisely because of this that the inland female stars in this period are actually more arrogant, and they can really have the final say.

It can be seen from this that Zhu Lin can appear at this dinner, it is estimated that he is really not forced, but willing.

In short, after everyone met and introduced each other, they followed by eating and drinking, and by the way, they talked about things in eating and drinking.

Cao Zhiqiang, as the host of the treat, of course, has to talk about his affairs first.

So Cao Zhiqiang quickly told him that he wanted to ask Director Liu to help a friend of his, that is, Wu Qinghong's father, be transferred to Shanghai.

After listening to Cao Zhiqiang's request, Director Liu was very talkative, saying that this matter is easy to say, but it is not okay to transfer someone to a certain movie theater in Shanghai.

It's not that he's bragging, it's that he really has the energy.

At this time, the Ministry of Culture had a lot of power, and it can be said that as long as it was related to culture, including book publishing and the cinema system, all of them were under the control of the Ministry of Culture.

It was only after 1986 that film management was transferred to radio and television management.

Including movie theaters in various places, at this time, they also have to listen to the Ministry of Culture.

Therefore, the director said that it was indeed not difficult to transfer Wu Zemin to work in a movie theater in Shanghai.

However, after talking about this matter, Director Liu began to take the initiative to introduce a middle-aged man who was almost forty years old next to him.

The middle-aged man who looks very young is called Xu Qingdong, it is said that he was born in the United States, and his parents are real ***, so I can't say much about that.

And then, this Xu Qing

Dong is a top student in the directing department of Beijing Film Academy, and after graduation, he went to work in the Ministry of Culture, and later transferred to Beijing Film Studio because he likes movies.

Although Xu Qingdong has a great background and is said to have a good talent, he is a versatile director who can write and direct, but in the film and television industry, he is still a proper newcomer.

At present, the only work he can get his hands on is a movie called "Awakening", but the impact is just like that.

This time, the reason why Director Liu agreed to help Cao Zhiqiang and transfer Wu Zemin to the job, to put it bluntly, was actually to help Xu Qingdong.

In other words, it was Mr. Xu Qingdong of Beiying, who was very quiet and wanted to make China's first music movie, similar to "The Sound of Music", so he found the boss of the Ministry of Culture, that is, Director Liu, for help.

Director Liu understands Xu Qingdong's background very well and is willing to help with this.

But there is one point, that is, the domestic film industry in this period is also senior, and it has its own unique circle.

Even if Xu Qingdong's parents have an amazing background, they are not in the film and television industry after all, so this background will not help him much.

To be more precise, with Xu Qingdong's qualifications, if he wants to make a movie, the regular film studio will not give him a chance at all.

Just kidding, today's film studios have very limited funds, and if they want to shoot, they will shoot big directors first, and it is not the turn of Xu Qingdong, a newcomer.

Although Director Liu is the first of the Ministry of Culture, in terms of position, level and power, it is very high, but he cannot directly intervene in the internal planning of the film and television industry, especially the film studio.

So Director Liu wanted Xu Qingdong to simply shoot a music TV to test the water.

The theme of music TV has not been seen in China before, so you can give it a try.

And it's easier to shoot TV, and it costs less.

No matter how easy it is, it costs money and has to be sponsored by a unit.

Ministry of Culture, don't look at the power, but if you want to talk about money, it's really not much.

So Director Liu suddenly thought of a big wrongdoer, no, it was a big benefactor, that was Cao Zhiqiang, who had a relationship before.

It just so happened that Secretary Dong found him, and when he heard what Cao Zhiqiang wanted to find someone to do, he felt that he could do it, so he had this dinner.

To put it bluntly, it's a deal.

Director Liu helped Cao Zhiqiang arrange for Wu Zemin to work in Shanghai, and Cao Zhiqiang wanted to invest in Xu Qingdong to make TV to fulfill his dream of being a director.

As for what Director Liu can get, of course he has Xu Qingdong's favor.

Xu Qingdong's favor is his parents' favor, and the weight is too great.

What's more, it is impossible for Cao Zhiqiang to treat him badly during this period, and it is also necessary to have a big meal and give some small gifts.

Anyway, everyone doesn't lose, and Director Liu feels that he makes the most money.

When he heard that he was asking for money to shoot TV, Cao Zhiqiang breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked how much it cost.

As a result, Xu Qingdong, a big man, hesitated for a long time and said the number of 300,000.

After hearing this number, Cao Zhiqiang almost sprayed wine.

Ma Dan, Cao Zhiqiang is not a chick now, and I know that everyone can try it soon. 】

In this era when 10,000 households are rich people, 300,000 yuan is really not money.

But the most important thing is that this film is a big bad movie at first glance, in case Cao Zhiqiang votes, this is an indelible stain.

Although Cao Zhiqiang was very resistant in his heart, after all, it was the leaders of the Ministry of Culture who opened his mouth to take the lead, and it was not easy to refuse directly.

So Cao Zhiqiang simply came up with ingenuity, saying that investment was okay, but he didn't like this script, and if he wanted to shoot it, he had to shoot what he wanted to shoot.

Xu Qingdong was not happy, thinking that Cao Zhiqiang didn't understand drama.

As a result, Cao Zhiqiang first emphasized his identity as a famous poet, and then criticized his script on the spot, and he blushed more than once he said it.

Just when Xu Qingdong was so angry with Cao Zhiqiang that he wanted to leave directly, Cao Zhiqiang's voice changed again and told the story he wanted to shoot.

This story is very simple, but it captured Xu Qingdong's heart at once.

Not only Xu Qingdong was very interested in listening to it, but everyone at the scene was very interested after listening to it.

So what is the simple story that Cao Zhiqiang said?

It's very simple, Cao Zhiqiang just slightly modified the story content of Makoto Shinkai's "Garden of Words" in his previous life and said it in his own words.

Not only that, after he finished telling the story, he also took out the piano on the spot and blew out the melody of the theme song "Rain" of "The Garden of Words".

In this way, a story and a song directly conquered everyone here.
