Entertainment tycoon since 83

Chapter 22 Movie shooting begins

There are still programs after twelve o'clock, and the quality of the programs is quite good.

As soon as Hong Kong singer Zhang Mingmin sang "My Chinese Heart", the whole audience hummed along.

"The mountains and rivers only haunt me in my dreams."

“The motherland has not been close for many years.”

"But it can't be changed anyway."

“My Chinese heart…”

The first few sentences express the voices of countless overseas Chinese.

“The Yangtze River and the Great Wall.”

“Huangshan and Yellow River.”

The words "it weighs a thousand pounds in my heart" express a feeling deep in everyone's heart.

Many viewers sitting in front of the TV had tears in their eyes.

Yes, there is a huge gap between the economy and the outside world.

But, this is the root!

Huang Ze, who came back from 24 years ago, thought about that time and then thought about now. After forty years of changes, two words appeared in his mind.

We have to blaze new trails and overcome all obstacles.

Looking at Zhang Mingmin on the stage, Huang Ze, who knew the vicissitudes of his changes, was a little excited.

At the same time, he also knew.

The only memory I will have of the 84 Spring Festival Gala will probably be this song.

There will always be a gap between my two songs.

Finally, this Spring Festival Gala came to an end with a new song, "Unforgettable Tonight", which has been performed throughout the Spring Festival Gala for decades.

……

In fact, it doesn’t matter who is first.

No one can resist one thing: Huang Ze is really popular.

It's not just young people who like to buy tapes.

Even though Huang Ze was no longer wearing the suit, when he was taking the train back to Shanghai, people would talk to him from time to time, whether on the bus or on the train.

"Hey, aren't you the one who sang on the Spring Festival Gala? The sound of the waves is still the same, your name is Huang Ze, right?"

"You sang really well, young man. Our whole family loves to listen to you sing. Please sing two more songs at the Spring Festival Gala next year!"

"Hey, Huang Ze, I'm from Shanghai too, do you have a partner?"

This is a young woman who is dressed in modern and avant-garde clothes.

If it were in the future, Huang Ze would definitely hook up with them and check the goods.

But now!
Love is precious, but life is even more valuable.

In order to reduce trouble, Huang Ze just said "I already have it".

"Who is it?" the other party asked.

Why should I tell you?

Muttering to himself, Huang Ze replied, "You don't know him," and he didn't want to bother with the other person anymore.

After chatting with someone in a cubicle for a while, I felt sleepy and went to bed.

But the impact of this Spring Festival Gala goes beyond this.

Far away in Harbin.

After being persuaded by relatives and friends, Li Jiuliang was actually a little hesitant about letting his son Li Jian go to Shanghai Film Studio to act.

What if the child is not doing well?
What if the child learns bad things?
What if I become too ambitious and can no longer study, and then fail to make it in the literary and artistic circles?
Wouldn’t that child be useless?
But after seeing Huang Ze on the Spring Festival Gala and recognizing him as the young man who had come to his house before, Li Jiuliang's concerns were completely suppressed.

This young man can perform on the Spring Festival Gala, so making a movie with him may be a good way out for the child!

Singing and making movies are always much easier than being a martial artist.

So, after spending the New Year at home, he and his wife took Li Jian on a train heading south.

……

I personally went to pick up the most important young actor in "The Spring of Underachievers",

Huang Ze took Li Jian and Li's father and mother to visit the Shanghai Film Studio, and finally, their destination was his home.

Huang Ze has communicated with his parents and younger sister.

We welcomed Li Jian and his family very warmly.

"Oh, this is the little genius our Aze mentioned!" Mom smiled and touched Li Jian's head, "He's quite cute. From now on, just treat your aunt's house as your own. If you want to eat something, just tell your aunt. Don't be shy." "Uh."

"Thank you for your help." When Li Jian's parents saw the furnishings in the house, including a TV and a refrigerator, they were also surprised and said a little awkwardly.

"Hey, why are you saying all this? It's all for the children." Mom took Li Jian to Huang Ze's room and pointed to the lower bunk that was vacated after Huang Ze moved to the upper bunk. "This is yours. If you don't dare to tell me, you can tell Huang Ze brother the same thing. Don't be afraid to say anything."

"Don't worry, Auntie." Li Jian nodded heavily.

"We will really trouble you in the future." Li Jian's parents expressed their gratitude again.

The next day, Li Jian's parents, no longer worried about their child living in Shanghai, took the train back home.

Huang Ze began to stay at home, teaching Li Jian music and singing.

"Too low, a little higher."

"Don't breathe here."

"Pronunciation, change your Northeastern accent. Have you ever seen anyone sing with an accent? Repeat after me ten times."

"Okay, we've practiced for more than an hour today, let's take a break for your voice." In order to protect the other person's voice, Huang Ze stopped teaching as soon as the time was up.

Unfortunately, even though I stopped teaching, Li Jian still couldn't finish the get out of class.

While I was teaching, my younger sister Huang Lan was reading other books beside me.

As soon as Li Jian finished class, he immediately took out his winter vacation homework and said, "Li Jian, come and do this set of questions for me. I don't know how to do any of them."

"Puff..." Huang Ze was drinking water and almost spit it out.

"Huang Lan, you are in the top three of the class, and you can't do it? How can you say that?"

"This isn't the way to be lazy!"

"Leave her alone."

"I really don't know how to do it!" Huang Lan pretended to cry, took out a problem, and found Huang Ze, "How do you solve this equation?"

"Like this, like this, like this..."

"How do we solve this problem?" Huang Lan filled in the answer and immediately asked the next question.

"Hey, are you here to cause trouble?"

"Will you do it?"

"You really can't do it." Huang Lan looked like she was going to hit me, which made Huang Ze quite helpless.

If you don’t want to do it, then don’t do it.

I never did any winter vacation homework when I was a kid. I just stayed up late to copy it two days before school.

At least Huang Lan is already worrying about her winter vacation homework before school starts.

This child has a sense of crisis.

amount.

Look at things from a different angle and you will suddenly feel that the world is so wide!

There was no way to control it, so Huang Ze was too lazy to care about it. Li Jian could not stay at home for a few days anyway.

……

February 15th.

"The Spring of the Underachievers" officially started filming.

All the main members gathered together, got to know each other, and began rehearsals.

The main rehearsal is for the first scene which will be filmed tomorrow, where teacher Zhou Shu enters the school.

Shoot over and over again without getting tired of it.

Nothing.

Firstly, one of the biggest expenses in making movies these days is film.

The cost of a movie is fixed, and if it exceeds the limit, the movie will definitely lose money, regardless of whether the movie is a hit or not.

All we can do is practice everything until we know it by heart and try to pass it in one go.

When shooting a film, the ratio of film length to finished film length is two to one or three to one, which is the normal phenomenon in film studios nowadays.

If you burn film like Jiang Wen did in later generations, you will definitely be scolded to death by others in the factory.

Second, it involves the issue of magic light.

Twenty minutes before and after sunrise and sunset, the sun is very low on the horizon and the light does not shine directly, which is equivalent to having completely natural background lighting. Both the color saturation and the texture of the subject are very ideal. It is the golden time period for shooting.

Tomorrow, we must try to complete the shot of Zhou Shu entering the school within the magic light time!
