Chapter 843: If you have a reservation, do things first
Gu Bei has already let go of what happened back then, but what does Director Yang Jie think?
The next day, Gu Bei arrived at Director Yang's house.
After so many years, Director Yang and Teacher Wang Chongqiu still live in the old house, and the furnishings inside have not changed much.
Especially the TV with a big back, it looks very old.
After the old couple retired, they read books at home every day, raised flowers, and lived a leisurely life.
The eldest daughter settled in Laomei, and the younger daughter Yaya followed her to take care of her.
"How did you have time to come over today, you busy man?"
Seeing Gu Bei coming to the door, Director Yang Jie was very surprised.
Although Gu Bei usually takes the time to come to visit, after all, they all have their own lives and jobs, and the number of times they come is not too much.
It's Li Chengru, who came over to visit the door when he had nothing to do.
"There's something I'd like to discuss with you."
When he came to the living room, Teacher Wang Chongqiu also came out of the study, and through the crack in the door, Gu Bei saw the camera on the desk.
"Teacher Wang, I really let you give it!"
Wang Chongqiu laughed when he heard this: "It's just an old antique, and if you put it in the table, it will be put in the warehouse to eat ashes, so it is better to sell it to me, so that I have some thoughts." ”
The camera was the one that Wang Chongqiu carried on his shoulders all day long during the original filming, and speaking of which, it was also the hero of the crew.
Now that I say it, I'm afraid no one dares to believe that such a big production, 80% of the scenes, was actually filmed with such an old camera.
Gu Bei still remembers that Director Yang had to apply to the station every month, hoping to add another camera, but every time the application was rejected by the station.
Is it really so difficult that you can't even squeeze out a camera?
Apparently this is not the case.
The main reason is Mrs. Yang's stubborn temper, which offended too many leaders.
Back then, who didn't know that Director Yang Jie was CCTV's famous hob meat, no matter whether he was the director or the secretary, he was scolding him face to face when he had something, and he was ruthless.
If it weren't for Ruan Ruolin helping to extinguish the fire up and down, I'm afraid he would really die.
"Hearing you say that, I'll have to look for it when I go back, so I can keep some souvenirs."
From 81 years to work in Taili, until the whole drama was completed in 88, Gu Bei worked in the crew for 7 years.
After the crossing, the most memorable period of time was left there.
"If you come here today, what's the matter, tell me quickly!"
Director Yang Jie is a quick temper, and the most impatient thing is the greetings before talking about business.
Gu Bei looked at Director Yang, thought for a while and said, "Lao Zhang passed away a few days ago, have you heard?" ”
Director Yang Jie was stunned, but Teacher Wang Chongqiu reacted quickly.
"You're talking about Lao Zhang, who used to be in the same office with you?"
Gu Bei nodded.
Teacher Wang Chongqiu let out a sigh: "He ...... Not too old, right? ”
"I just retired, and I just came back from a trip to Hainan with his daughter-in-law a few days ago, who would have thought that people would be gone so soon!"
Director Yang Jie was also a little moved: "It's a pity! ”
She is not familiar with Lao Zhang, but she has met a few times.
"You're here to tell me this?"
"No, I met Director Wang at the memorial service, and later I heard Xiao Xu tell me that Director Wang intentionally wanted to organize another gathering of the crew of the Red Mansion."
Hearing this, Director Yang Jie has already understood.
"So, you also want to let the Journey to the West crew get together again?"
Gu Bei nodded, and didn't look at Director Yang Jie's reaction.
For a long time, Director Yang didn't speak.
Obviously, what happened at the beginning still hurt her a lot.
The four masters and apprentices wanted to make more money, which was understandable, and Director Yang Jie was angry, just because they shouldn't hide it and let the whole group wait for them.
According to her temper, the last time she said it, it would be okay to lose her temper once.
But it shouldn't be, it shouldn't be, the four masters and apprentices actually went to the stage leader to sue her, and almost let the crew be disbanded.
Director Yang can't forgive this matter.
Her dedication can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye, why the four masters and apprentices don't understand.
You must know that if you succeed, the four masters and apprentices will benefit the most.
Everyone else is a behind-the-scenes hero, and only the four masters and apprentices can walk on that glamorous stage.
"Xiao Gu, you should know what I think!"
Of course, Gu Bei knew, so he would ask Director Yang Jie's opinion before he started to do it.
If she didn't agree, Gu Bei could only let go of this matter.
"Director Yang, I know that you were wronged in the original incident, but ...... After all, after so many years, I don't advise you to be generous, just ......"
"Why did you suddenly have this idea?"
Director Yang Jie didn't wait for Gu Bei to finish speaking, and then asked.
Gu Bei smiled wryly: "Maybe it's because of ...... I'm getting old, too! ”
Old?
When these words came out of Gu Bei's mouth, he felt very strange no matter how he heard them.
If Gu Bei is old, how should the two of them count?
Already in the ground?
But after thinking about it carefully, what Gu Bei said is right, he is fifty years old, can he not be old!
It's just that it's because of good maintenance, and it doesn't look obvious.
"Yes! We're all old! ”
At this age, there is nothing to put down.
The four masters and apprentices were responsible for those things back then, didn't Director Yang Jie?
She was able to get more subsidies from the station for the members of the crew, not because she saw the difficulties in everyone's life.
If you think so, it is not difficult to understand that the four masters and apprentices go to the cave to make money.
From the start to the finishing, for several years, although the original unit can still receive a salary, the salary given by the crew is still too little.
Like Ma Dehua and Yan Huaili were both married at that time, how could they support their families with that little income.
just has fame, all over the country are vying to invite performances, and they are paid so highly, who can resist the temptation?
"Xiao Gu, this matter ...... I agreed, if I can really organize, when the time comes, I will also attend, you can do it! ”
Hearing Director Yang Jie say this, Gu Bei immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
These people, all of them are of what age, some of them are old, it is not an exaggeration to say that there is today, there is no tomorrow, it is not an exaggeration to say that there is no tomorrow, let it go!
After all, after working together for so many years, suffering hardships, suffering crimes, and enjoying the joy of success, let's leave some more good memories!
chatted with the old couple until almost noon, Director Yang Jie wanted to stay with Gu Bei for dinner, but Gu Bei refused.
When he came out of Director Yang's house, Gu Bei called Li Chengru.
"Where? Let's have lunch together! ”
Li Chengru is not in the capital at this time, and is filming in Tianjin.
He thought about it completely, and after remarrying, in addition to filming, he enjoyed life, and his life was more comfortable than Gu Beidu.
drove more than 200 miles to Tianjin Wei, and met Li Chengru in a noodle restaurant in Hexi.
"You can find this place, are you here to film, or are you here to visit the store?"
Visiting a store?
Li Chengru could probably guess what it meant, and beckoned Gu Bei to sit down.
"Call someone!"
"Uncle!"
With Li Chengru is his son Dahai, who is now a young man in his twenties and has also become an actor, and this time the scene was filmed by their father and son.
In addition to being an actor, Dahai is also the director of this play.
"Not bad!"
Gu Bei looked at the white skin noodles and three fresh marinades brought by the waiter, as well as various dishes.
He likes to eat noodles, and like Guo Baochang, every time he eats noodles, he feels like he has a birthday.
In addition to noodles, there are four dishes, fried gluten, shredded pork with green peppers, shrimp in the Qing Dynasty, and a scrambled egg with leeks.
"Uncle, I'll mix it for you!"
Seeing that Gu Bei was about to make a move, the sea hurriedly got up.
He has always been very grateful to Gu Bei, if it weren't for Gu Bei, his family might not be so happy and happy now.
"Not so particular, eat yours!"
Gu Bei put four kinds of seasonal dishes in it, and added three fresh marinades, and it was really fragrant in one bite.
Li Chengru saw that Gu Bei didn't mention anything to find him, so he didn't speak, and when the sea was finished, he sent him away first.
Then the two of them left the store, found a place outside, and squatted on the edge of the road.
Syllable!
Lighting a cigarette, the two of them looked like old farmers working in the city.
Who can see that one of these two people has a net worth of more than 100 million, and the other is ......
He didn't even know how much money he had.
"What's the matter with me?"
Gu Bei simply said the matter.
"What do you think?"
Li Chengru frowned, he didn't go to the last party, and he has always been obsessed with the original incident.
If Director Yang Jie is because the four masters and apprentices went to the acupoint and sued, and a few people have a grudge, Li Chengru is full of disdain.
He is a straight man, and if he is tired of a crooked person, he will not be able to look down on him.
"Have you forgotten how they arranged me in the first place?"
Gu Bei smiled when he heard this, Li Chengru had resentment in his heart, and it was normal.
You must know that when he was in the crew, he was fired three times by Director Yang Jie, except for the first time when it was his own problem, the remaining two times were inseparable from the four masters and apprentices.
Because this guy has a big temper and a stinky mouth, he has offended many people in the crew, and the four masters and apprentices have had conflicts with him, and the most serious one is that they collectively ran to Director Yang to complain.
In order to appease the four of them, Director Yang could only let Li Chengru get out.
"How many years have it been, do you still remember, think about your age, more than 50 people, how many times can you get together in the future?"
Li Chengru stopped talking, he did have conflicts with the four masters and apprentices, but most of the crew members still have a good relationship, they all know who he is, and no one has the same knowledge as him.
"What did Director Yang say?"
"The old lady has no opinion, let me handle it!"
Li Chengru was stunned: "So you came to me?" ”
Gu Bei smiled: "The two of us were partners at the beginning, I don't look for you to find anyone, in a word, if you have reservations, let's get down to business first!" ”
