Chapter 376 Fan Xiaopang wants to be a director?

"First love?" Seeing these two words, Dong Xi felt inexplicably sad.

It seems to have some degree of magic that can evoke certain thoughts in people's hearts.

After briefly looking through the script, "A Little Thing About First Love" is really a very simple story, with some regrets, some sadness, and some happiness, just like the sour and sweet youth.

Although Jiang Wen doesn't like it, his movies refuse to be superficial. In Jiang Wen's words, they are more "advanced" and the story telling needs to be "slow".

But from Dong Xi's point of view, the script is not a big problem. As long as we find good actors and keep up with the publicity in the later stage, it may become a small hit.

Commercial movies don't need to have too deep connotations, as long as the audience likes them.

Dong Xi was flipping through the script, and Jiang Wen and Fan Xiaopang were already quarreling.

"The market will definitely not accept it. If this movie is released and the box office exceeds 10 million, I will star in your next movie for free!"

"Okay, if the box office does not exceed 10 million, I will guest star in three of your movies for free."

Seeing the two of them betting like children, Dong Xi's brows raised unconsciously, and he felt that he had missed something.

Sure enough, Fan Xiaopang came over angrily and said a word, which almost choked Dong Xi to death.

"I want to be a director!"

The horror of this sentence ranked second in Dong Xi's mind, second only to Fan Xiaopang's statement that she was pregnant.

Seeing the evil smile on Jiang Wen's face not far away, Dong Xi instantly understood why the other party dared to bet with Fan Xiaopang.

With a box office of tens of millions, it can firmly enter the top fifteen in the current mainland market, and may even touch the tail of the top ten.

With Fan Xiaopang's popularity, if she plays the leading role, no matter how bad the movie is, as long as the publicity keeps up, the box office is guaranteed.

But she's a director?

China Entertainment is not yet in the era where you can become a director just by tethering a dog. With Fan Xiaopang’s qualifications, if he becomes a director, the backlash will be quite severe.

Compared with a monk like Dong Xi who became a monk on the way, Fan Xiaopang has graduated from a professional school, but she definitely does not have the ability to direct a movie independently.

"No, don't be joking!"

Although Dong Xi could assign a group of assistant directors to Fan Xiaopang and assist her in completing the filming.

But the result of doing so will only make the entire company the object of ridicule.

Unless a "Farewell My Concubine" is made...

As for the director, Dong Xi already has a suitable candidate in mind. For this kind of low-budget film from a female perspective, it is perfect for Jia Ling to come and practice.

It can also train new actors. The young people auditioned for this TV series can definitely star in it.

"I just want to be a director~" Seeing that Dong Xi refused, Fan Xiaopang hugged his arm and started acting coquettishly.

Because he was a guest today, Fan Xiaopang did not wear an overly sexy dress, but chose a suit.

Of course it's not a serious suit, it's pink and shiny, and the most important thing is that it's low-cut.

Most people really can't control it.

Looking at the two lumps shining brightly in front of him, Dong Xi quite enjoyed it, but the happy time was always short-lived.

"Get ready, it's about to start!" Just as Dong Xi put on an expression that was difficult to explain, the door of the lounge was pushed open.

Xu Qing's appearance at just the right time seemed to pour cold water on the hot atmosphere.

Because there were so many things going on, Dong Xi almost forgot that this was a program for which Xu Qing was the producer.

Faced with the situation of two women in the same room, he instinctively wanted to escape.

But reason told him that as a qualified fish pond owner, he must not retreat at this time.

"Haha, Xu... you're here..." But before Dong Xi could strike first, Jiang Wen stood up with a haha ​​sign.

"Brother Jiang, you are shouting too harshly." Perhaps because Jiang Wen was present, Xu Qing did not show any abnormality.

The two are quite familiar with each other, having collaborated on a movie "Song of Qin" as early as 1996, which also included Ge You.

Although this film is not well-known, in terms of depth and artistry, it can be compared equally with the representative works of the same period by Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige.

In terms of cost and grandeur of the scenes, it was far superior to any other movie of that era.

The film cost 40 million to complete, and even ten years later it would still be a large-scale production. Looking at the main creative lineup, it gathered many master-level figures in the country at that time.

Lu Wei, the screenwriter of "Alive" and "Farewell My Concubine", worked together with director Zhou Xiaowen to polish the script for six years.

The soundtrack of Zhao Jiping's entry, the art of Cao Jiuping...

You may start to wonder: "Why have I never heard of such an awesome work?"

Because, after only four days of preview, it was banned.

I have to complain, Jiang Wenzhen is the most banned actor in China.

Dong Xi has seen this movie and feels that it is the first domestically produced movie with an "epic feel". The scale can also be said to be quite large. The opening scene:

Two babies sucked milk in public.

After sucking for a few seconds, one of them was taken away.

During the process of being carried away, the wet nurse's chest was exposed a little.

Just like the revealing scene between Ma Dasan and his mistress in the entry for "The Japanese Are Coming".

And what Dong Xi couldn't accept the most was that Ge You and Xu Qing had close contact in the film.

Of course, according to Xu Qing, the hands of a stuntman were used.

However, just like "The Japanese Are Coming", the real reason why "Qin Song" was banned is not just the exposure (otherwise it can be deleted).

Although the description of "that thing" in "Qin Song" is more direct and more perverse.

In short, this movie can be regarded as establishing the friendship between Jiang Wen, Xu Qing and Ge You.

"Hey, Lao Jiang, why are you being so polite?" Dong Xi also used the other party to try to divert his attention.

"Humph~" Xu Qing snorted coldly, rolled her eyes at Dong Xi, and said nothing more.

Seeing this scene, Dong Xi felt relieved. In his opinion, the worst outcome was that Xu Qing ignored him. As long as the other party responded to his response, everything could change.

As expected, Xu Qing was not entangled, Fan Xiaopang also pretended to be an ostrich, and Dong Xi also concluded a theory.

That is to keep your women busy so that they will not have time to find faults.

When the recording of the program begins, the judges will enter the venue first, followed by the contestants. As for Dong Xi, the three of them will be airborne as surprise guests.

Standing backstage, Dong Xi looked at Xu Qing, who was dressed in formal clothes and holding a walkie-talkie in her hand, and felt a little fresh.

The way he looks at the court seriously, his side profile is really charming, especially the back view that he exercises regularly, is so alluring under the suit and trousers.

"When will we appear on the stage?" Taking advantage of the dark lights and no one around, Dong Xi slowly approached the other party, and at the same time skillfully covered half of the peach with his big hand.

"Don't stay with your little baby?" Xu Qing struggled symbolically, and then said with a sour tone.

"My eldest baby will always be you." Dong Xi said love words skillfully.

Before, he wouldn't have been able to say this even to death, but now he is the fish pond owner after all, and his fish must not only be fed, but also the cultivation of emotions cannot be neglected.

In a dim environment, Dong Xi massaged Peach in a familiar manner with a flattering look on his face.

"How's it going? Is your strength still okay?"

"Stop now, the show is about to take place." Even though he couldn't see the other person's face clearly, Dong Xi was very confident that Xu Qing was at this moment.

Although no one around noticed it, the "rustling" sound made by the walkie-talkie in Xu Qing's hand was still particularly exciting.

"Production Xu, Director Dong can't be found!" Suddenly, the staff's panicked voice came from the intercom.

"Director Dong is here with me..." Xu Qing rolled her eyes at Dong Xi, and then responded with a heavy breath.
