Li Qing particularly admired Hua Rong. People outside said that Hua Rong was the best in Hong Kong. She had good looks but no acting skills. But look, her practical skills were definitely not comparable to those of freshly graduated majors.
"Sister Hua, I have something to talk to you about." Li Qing said suddenly.
I was analyzing the beauty of Zhu Qingyun's character for Li Qing. I was stunned when I heard this: "What's the matter?"
Li Qing smiled and said: "Our company has recently invested in a movie and would like to ask you to be the heroine. I wonder if you have time."
"Your company?" Hua Rong was surprised, and her eyes immediately looked at Li Qing with admiration.
You must know that making movies and making records are definitely two completely different industries. Regardless of distribution channels and other issues, the former requires teamwork to start, while the latter is more focused on individual abilities.
Li Qing can write and sing songs by himself. As long as the songs are good and the singer is not bad, it will not be a problem to create a high-quality album. As long as there are distribution channels, he can just wait and collect the money. In this regard, Li Qing can be said to be
To the extreme,
But making a movie is different. You need good actors, a good script, a good director, a good camera, even a good investor, etc. If there is a problem in any aspect, it will cause the entire movie to be shot.
Such incoordination will lead to fission in the box office and public opinion of the entire movie.
"It's a film co-produced by our company and Huayun Film and Television," Li Qing added.
Hua Rong was stunned and said: "Hua Yun? I remembered it. Hua Yun did come to me last week and said they wanted to ask me to make a movie, but I'm still thinking about it. Could it be that you want to film it?"
Movie?"
"It should be, what's the name of the movie?" Li Qing asked.
Huarong shook her head: "Although Hua Yun specializes in film and television production, they have always been based on the production of low-cost movies. I have received enough movies in the past few years, so when it comes to the selection of works, I have begun to prefer less than too much, and I want to make some films that can practice my acting skills.
Movie, so...I didn’t ask about the movie name because I didn’t plan to make a movie about the Chinese Yun."
A low-cost film means short and fast. To use professional vocabulary, it means low investment, short cycle, quick results, and high efficiency. To put it simply, it means only seeking speed and not quality.
Although Huayun Film and Television is very famous in Hong Kong, it is also synonymous with short-term and fast work.
Li Qing smiled bitterly: "Our company accounts for the majority of the investment in this movie, with a total investment of more than 60 million..."
Sixty million...
Hua Rong was a little surprised. This figure exceeded her psychological expectations. You must know that "In the Mood for Love" only invested less than 10 million.
"Let's read the script first." Hua Rong said with a smile: "Let's not talk about this matter for now. At the moment, we still need to finish filming "Love Words" before we can worry about other important things."
Li Qing nodded.
Immediately, Hua Rong and Li Qing picked up the storyboard script and began to compare lines.
Li Qing has a total of five scenes, and his lines are very simple. Unlike Hua Rong and Zheng Jiayu, his acting skills are more focused on psychological activities.
These five scenes of Li Qing are very simple. He only needs to show two characteristics, one is to be handsome and generous, and the other is to be able to flirt with girls.
From Hua Rong's point of view, this is a role tailor-made for Li Qing. Li Qing only needs to perform in his true colors...
Half an hour later, in a cramped rented apartment.
"Everyone has, three, two, one, ation!"
Director Wang Jiachen picked up the microphone and shouted once, then sat back on the director's chair and observed the images coming from each camera lens.
…
Jian Suzhen, played by Hua Rong, was wearing a green cheongsam. She walked from the corridor of the rental apartment, turned back and directed to several workers moving furniture: "Hey, be careful, don't rub against the wall."
The workers were obedient. The fifty-year-old housekeeper was holding a handbag next to her and said with a smile: "Mrs. Zhu, when the furniture is ready, remember to come and play cards. Mrs. Chu next door to you is also a card player. This is our first meeting.
You can get familiar with it.”
Jian Suzhen smiled slightly: "I'm not very good at playing cards."
"It's okay, as long as your husband knows how to do it." The housekeeper said without looking back as she picked up the key and opened her room.
"My husband is usually quite busy with business."
Jian Suzhen wanted to refuse politely, but was interrupted by a laugh from the charterer: "Oh, everyone is very busy, so try to take some time. And you, Mr. Zhu, are more active than Mrs. Zhu..."
Jian Suzhen was a little confused.
At this moment, the door to the tenant's room was opened, and the sound of playing mahjong suddenly sounded in the room.
At the card table, several men and women were talking and laughing.
In the nearby camera lens, you can clearly see the facial expressions of the men and women at the card table.
There were four women and two men in total, two of whom were men, one was the charterer and the other was Li Qing.
Among the other four women, three of them are tenants in the apartment. They have smiles on their faces and look at the handsome and handsome Li Qing from time to time.
There is another person who is dressed more intellectually, wearing a black cheongsam and a white mink velvet scarf, with an enlarged forehead and fair skin. She is the well-known Hong Kong actor Pan Fengyun. Her eyes occasionally look at Li Qing. Judging from her face, she
Only two words were revealed on his face: "I like Li Qing."
In the play, Pan Fengyun plays Chu Ming's wife, who is about to cheat on her with Zhu Qingyun.
And this scene is where Mrs. Chu and Zhu Qingyun met for the first time.
At this time, Li Qing was the center of attention, and even photographer Fu handed him the lens.
Li Qing naturally knew this, and his palms became sweaty nervously, but on the surface, he was very happy to play cards with several card friends as described in the script. And among the questions from the card friends, he gradually
Indicated identity.
Zhu Qingyun works for a multinational brokerage company. The so-called broker refers to a person who introduces transactions for others and earns commissions from them. To put it simply, he is an overseas shopper or purchasing agent.
But for Hong Kong citizens nowadays, being able to go to Japan, Australia and other places every week is very respectable.
"Mr. Zhu often goes to Japan. I just went to their room and saw Mr. Zhu's rice cooker. You only need to plug in the appliance to cook rice and porridge. I just asked Mr. Zhu to bring one back to me next time I go on a business trip.
, you should also seize the opportunity!" a woman said with a smile.
"Rice cooker?"
"This is a good thing. It's very popular in Japan."
"Mr. Zhu, please bring one for me next time."
Several other people asked Li Qing while chatting and smiling.
Li Qing smiled slightly and played a card, "This is easy, I'll remember it."
After agreeing, Li Qing looked at Pan Fengyun who remained silent: "Do you need it, Mrs. Zhou?"
"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Zhu." Pan Fengyun looked very shy. Such an expression can indeed easily arouse a man's favor.
At this time, the door was opened, and the charterer and Jian Suzhen appeared outside the door at the same time.
"Remember to come back for dinner after playing cards." Jian Suzhen left a few words and left.
At this time, Li Qing's expression showed a moment of astonishment.
"Click!"
Wang Jiachen picked up the shouting microphone, and in front of the entire crew, without giving Li Qing any face, he shouted directly into the shouting microphone: "Qingzi, your expression is too exaggerated!"
