"Set up a studio?"

Jiang Qinqin sat up in surprise despite the leakage of spring light.

"Yes, setting up a studio is more flexible and more free for you personally. You can decide for yourself what drama you want to take in the future, or what drama you don't want to take. Li Tang said.

"Yes...... But I don't have any resources right now? Jiang Qinqin said with a frown.

Li Tang smiled: "There are no resources to be afraid of, your current popularity is resources." Besides, it's not for you to go it alone, our company can invest in your studio, and everyone can start strategic cooperation! ”

"Cut, it's still a strategic cooperation, what a big breath!"

Jiang Qinqin first snorted disdainfully, then thought about it carefully, and said dissatisfiedly: "You just don't want to sign me after talking for a long time, right?" What, do you want to avoid suspicion? ”

She wasn't particularly ambitious, so she wanted to make more money while she was young, and then find a man she liked to marry her. Now the man I like is found, but unfortunately I eat it in the bowl and look at it in the pot...... Well, I can't seem to say that, as if I'm the last to come.

But in any case, love is not a matter of first come, first served, only about who is the most suitable and who can have the last laugh. So when Zeng Jia secretly poked and poked to talk to her, she didn't think about the development prospects or anything, she just wanted to get close to the water and get the moon first.

"What is it called avoiding suspicion, didn't I just say that if you set up a studio, our company can invest in shares, which is equivalent to being tied together, which is a cooperative relationship."

"Then why bother so much, isn't it over if you sign me directly."

Jiang Qinqin is afraid of trouble, she is a little woman, she is an actress, she just wants to find a job, not to start a business, and she is annoyed.

Li Tang had no choice but to say bitterly: "Setting up a studio is good for you, as long as our company exists, even if you don't film in the future, you can still invest, you can train new people, and you can still make money!" ”

Jiang Qinqin thought for a while and said, "What if the investment is lost?" ”

“……”

Li Tang was stunned for a moment, and finally turned into a long sigh and said, "Then there is no way to talk." ”

Jiang Qinqin liked to see Li Tang's helpless look, and giggled and hugged his neck: "It's still early, let's talk about such a big thing, you let me think about it first!" ”

"Okay, anyway, you remember this, this is an opportunity, if you miss this village, there will be no such shop." Li Tang didn't say anything.

In the next two days, he accompanied Jiang Qinqin to walk around the city of Venice, leaving their presence in the famous St. Mark's Church, the Bridge of Sighs, the Golden Palace, and the Color Island, until Jiang Qinqin said goodbye to Rome.

The next trip is that she will go to the famous Sicily to check in, and then France, the Netherlands, Norway and other countries will take a ten-day trip to Europe, and she will not be able to return to China until around September 15th.

When Li Tang returned to the hotel where the army was staying, it was already halfway through this film festival. Except for one "Spring in a Small Town", the other Chinese films have already appeared.

Rookie director Lu Chuan's "Looking for a Gun" is very popular because of the blessing of Jiang Wen and the responsible agent of Columbia, and even made a movie board to hang in a prominent position in the movie palace for publicity.

In contrast, Cheng Guo's "People's Public Toilet" has suffered an unprecedented cold reception. In fact, Cheng Guo is also an old man in Venice, in recent years, there are new works shortlisted almost every year, maybe his style is too simple, always chattering, and full of political metaphors, except for the "Durian Piaopiao" that attracted attention back then, the rest of the works have a very general response.

This time, he brought this "People's Public Toilet", perhaps the taste is too heavy, and the audience left the theater one after another during the screening in the theater where most of the people sat at the premiere, and in the end there were only two or three kittens left, including Zhang Baibai and Liu Zhan, two pilgrims.

After Zhang Baibai talked about it with relish, he finally said helplessly: "I think it's too real, and Lao Liu and I can't even eat dinner after watching it." ”

At this time, Zeng Jia also interjected: "The funniest thing is that this time their press conference is behind the American movie "Road to Destruction". Hanks's popularity also helped them increase their influence. And guess what? When "The Road to Destruction" held a press conference, it was called a sea of people, and I heard Wang Ji of "Nandu Daily" say that even the aisles were full of people. As a result, Tom. Hanks just walked on the front foot, and the reporters in the back foot room were almost gone, leaving a dozen Hong Kong, Wanwan, and Wang Ji, and Wang Ji, this meeting was really embarrassing. ”

Having said that, the gloating expression on Zeng Jia's face was overflowing. Think about this time last year, it was because Li Tang criticized the film "Hong Kong Has a Hollywood", but it was criticized and even slandered by the Hong Kong media.

In the end, it can be summed up in two words - "deserved"!

The only Wanwan movie "Beautiful Times" shortlisted for the main competition unit has received good reviews, this movie is a bit similar to "The Third Man", both are crime themes, and they are all through love, friendship, family affection, indulgence, violence and dreams, etc., interweaving the sigh of the rapid burning out of young life.

Tonight is the premiere of "Spring in a Small Town", and it is reasonable for Li Tang to go to the show. First, he has a good relationship with director Tian Zhuangzhuang, when he was filming "Very Summer", Tian Zhuangzhuang was the person in charge of the director office of Beijing Film Studio. In other words, he is Senior Lu, Xiao Tengdao, including the top boss of Lao Teng Dao, and he is at the right level.

However, as the leader of the fifth generation of directors that year, Director Tian has no shelf, and he especially likes to deal with young people, and is willing to promote young directors. For example, in Senior Lu's debut film "Growing Up", Director Tian not only served as the producer to help Senior Lu check the gates, but also played a role in it.

Even during the filming of "Very Summer", Director Tian would often come to the scene to visit everyone, chat or have dinner together. In particular, Director Tian is very humorous when he speaks, and people who are dozens of years old still seem to maintain a childlike heart.

In fact, for actors like Li Tang who graduated from the three major art academies, he met Grange Zhuang through teaching films earlier. For example, "Hunting Ground Zaza", "Horse Thief", "Blue Kite" and so on.

The reason why it is said to be a teaching film is because it can't be seen outside at all, and it is a banned film but a particularly good film with a particularly high artistic component.

As long as you have watched these teaching films, you will find that Director Chen Dadao, including director Zhang Yimou, is a younger brother. It's just a pity that since "Blue Kite", Director Tian has been banned for ten years, and he has just made a comeback this year.

"Spring in a Small Town" is his comeback, but unfortunately it is only a remake, which can also show that the ten-year ban period has worn out his spirit, or he is afraid.

But in any case, "Spring in a Small Town" is a classic after all, and as for the success of the remake, Li Tang is quite looking forward to it.

Second, it is because the female number one of this "Spring in a Small Town" is his junior sister who is the first level higher than him when he is in the play. Although there was not much intersection between the two when they were in school, they were still from the same school, and they always had to go to the show.

Compared with last year, this year's Venice Film Festival is a little less star-studded. Hanks, Harrison who is only a handful of years old. Ford, this old guy is not old-hearted, and he also brought a little girlfriend.

Maybe the organizers are also aware of this, and at the opening ceremony, Sophia, who had been out of the picture for many years. Roland invited out, and the old lady wore a pair of signature glasses, and she still looked beautiful.

In contrast, Gong Li, the chairman of this year's jury, is unsatisfactory. At this time, her aura was far less powerful than later, especially at the opening ceremony, as the host, she could only stand on the stage awkwardly and listen to another local Italian host in Balabala. And when she introduced the shortlisted films in English, she also seemed very restrained. It turned out that she didn't understand Italian at all.

However, when he saw Gong Li in full costume in private, Li Tang still had a fan mentality and was very excited.

"Teacher Gong Li, hello!"

Gong Li used to work in the Drama Research Institute of Chinese Opera, and the career establishment of the teacher post was a real teacher.

"Li Tang, hello!" Gong Li smiled and nodded and shook his hand.

At this moment, Li Tang felt very proud, and his buddy was now the number one person, at least he didn't have to introduce himself in front of Gong Li.

"I watched your "Subway to Spring", and Zhang Baibai directed it well." Gong Li said with a smile.

She smiled beautifully, but unfortunately her teeth were straightened up, and she didn't see the playful little tiger teeth in "Red Sorghum".

But this surprised Li Tang: "Have you seen it? ”

"Subway to Spring" was only shortlisted for the screening unit, how could the chairman of the jury, as the main competition unit, see it?

"I went to the theater to watch it, and I also saw Zhang Baibai and the screenwriter Liu, but there were quite a lot of people at that time, so it was not convenient to go over to say hello."

"Director Zhang and screenwriter Liu just went in, and when I told them when I turned around, they must have been surprised."

"It's okay, Zhang Baibai and I are old classmates." Gong Li said with a smile.

Speaking of Gong Li is the 85th class of the Chinese Opera Performance Department, and Zhang Baibai is the 86th class of the Chinese Opera Department of Literature, although the two are only one year apart, and they are not from the same department, but in the landlord's compound of the Chinese opera, there were only about 200 students in the 80s, and the acquaintance is certain.

As for Liu Zhan, a disciple of the big courtyard, graduated from middle school, he has no education, but he likes to write and admires Wang Shuo. It wasn't until later that he came out of the circle because he wrote "Love Malatang" with Zhang Baibai, Diao Yinan and others, and Teacher Gong Li at that time had already made a name for herself in China, and she immigrated to Lijiapo, so she was naturally not familiar with it.

"By the way, I heard that you also filmed the director's "Hero".

"Uh...... Right! ”

Originally, he avoided mentioning Director Zhang, but he didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to mention this topic.

Then he hurriedly said, "It's just a small role." ”

"How does it feel?"

"Well, I'm so impressed, it's a scene connected with Li, and it took almost a month to shoot."

"He's like that, he always wants to be perfect."

I don't know why, obviously Gong Li said with a smile, but Li Tang saw regret and loneliness behind this smiling face.

I thought I had heard some secrets about the two of them, it was said that the two were indeed true love back then, but it was a pity that the director was hesitant at that time, and it was not until Gong Li ran out of patience that he left Lijiapo.

However, it can also be seen that although the fate of the two is now over, at least Gong Li is still paying attention to the director at all times. After all, an unforgettable relationship is unforgettable for the parties involved, such as himself and his ex-girlfriend.

When the two were about to enter the theater, they heard a familiar voice: "Sister Gong Li!" ”

This was followed by the sound of hurried footsteps.

Looking back, it turned out that Xu Jinglei, who had frequently appeared on the show during this time.

Originally, Li Tang thought that the two knew each other. As a result, when Xu Jinglei ran closer, she said with a smile: "Sister Gong Li, hello, I'm Xu Jinglei." ”

One of the four little flowers in the mainland, it stands to reason that Gong Li still has some cards at present, but Gong Li just glanced at her and replied with a cold expression: "Hello!" ”

Then he turned his head and said to Li Tang: "I'll go in first." ”

"Uh, good!"

Li Tang was very embarrassed, and it was not good to leave Xu Jinglei and enter the theater with Gong Li, but he and Xu Jinglei were the same, so he had to stay where he was and didn't move.

It turned out that Xu Jinglei, who was full of excitement, didn't expect Gong Li to react to her at all, just now she saw Gong Li and Li Tang talking happily, so she came over to say hello, and her agents were ready to take pictures. She also thought that it would be best to have a hug with Gong Li, and then take a photo and spread it across the country, with the help of Gong Li, the chairman of the jury of the Venice Film Festival at this time, when the popularity is high, she can definitely make headlines on the entertainment page.

Results......

Xu Jinglei only felt that her face was hot, especially in front of Li Tang, and she was stunned on the spot for a while.

Of course, Li Tang was also confused, it was obvious that Gong Li didn't want to see Xu Jinglei, and Xu Jinglei's self-introduction just now showed that the two were just meeting for the first time today. The only answer can only be where Xu Jinglei may have offended Gong Li, and even she doesn't know.

When it comes to Gong Li's coffee position, she can be completely casual, and she is not afraid of offending anyone at all. It is said that she also turned her face in public with Director Zhang's investor Zhang Weiping, and a little Xu Jinglei naturally would not take it seriously.

But at this time, he is quite sympathetic to Xu Jinglei, empathy, if he changes his hot face and sticks a cold buttocks, the taste will definitely not be comfortable.

Facing Xu Jinglei, who was stunned, he could only cough lightly twice and reminded: "Old Xu, let's go in too." ”

At this time, the agent with the camera on his chest also hurriedly ran over, full of worry: "Jinglei, what's wrong?" ”

Xu Jinglei reacted at this time, and squeezed out an ugly smile: "It's nothing!" ”

At the same time, she nodded gratefully at Li Tang, because she knew that if Li Tang had left with Gong Li just now, then she would only be more embarrassed.

It's just that she still can't figure out where she offended Gong Li, so that the other party doesn't even pretend to be superficial.
