"Huimin's belly is getting bigger and bigger now. If she doesn't get the certificate, she can't wait until she has a big belly to get it later. That would be too ugly.
Besides, I always don’t get the certificate. Can Aunt Zhou not be in a hurry?
Taking advantage of the fact that Huimin's belly is hidden and there are still no clues, you two received the certificate and reassured Aunt Zhou... Do you hear that? "
Zeng Li pushed Qin Muchu who was stunned.
"Um, I heard it, I heard it."
Qin Muchu came back to his senses and nodded repeatedly.
Obtaining a marriage certificate is a necessary process for the legalization of marriage. Many people think that marriage begins on the wedding day, but legally speaking, once you obtain a marriage certificate, you are husband and wife.
Zhou Huimin is pregnant, so it is inevitable to get the certificate.
This is also something that has been discussed before.
But he has always had concerns about when to receive it.
Yes, he and Zhou Huimin received the certificate, and they were legal. What about Yang Mi and Zeng Li?
He wanted to find a suitable time to mention this matter, but he didn't expect Zeng Li to mention it first.
What does Qin Muchu say in his heart now? He feels relieved that a difficult problem has been solved, but he is more moved.
However, he was still a little hesitant. Zeng Li agreed, but the other person had not expressed his stance yet.
"Let Mimi and I discuss this matter tomorrow..."
"No, this is what Mimi mentioned. I guess she should have told Huimin about it by now."
Seeing Qin Muchu's surprised eyes, Zeng Li showed a faint smile:
"Although Mimi sometimes seems to do things inappropriately, she is more considerate than anyone else."
Before he finished speaking, the phone rang with a "ding dong" sound.
Zeng Li picked up the mobile phone on the bedside table, glanced at it and handed it to Qin Muchu:
"Look, I said so."
Qin Muchu looked at his phone and saw a text message on it, which was sent by Yang Mi.
"Sister Li, have you talked to Qin Muchu about getting the certificate? Sister Huimin and I have told her, wuwuwu, I'm so heartbroken, my beloved concubine is going to be snatched away by the Cao thief, and I will castrate her sooner or later."
"..."
What a vicious bitch!
……
Hebei, Zhuozhou Film and Television City.
Under the city wall, a man in armor galloped on a horse, and the sound of horse hooves stirred up pieces of dust. The camera quickly moved along the slide rails laid on the ground to record this scene.
"Okay, OK."
In front of the monitor, the man wearing a sunhat shouted something into the intercom. Just as he was about to stand up, he suddenly discovered that behind his own shadow on the ground, there was another shadow mixed with it.
"Oh, that's what this horse is riding on. It really looks like a general."
Listening to the rough voice behind him, Mai Zhaohui knew who it was without turning around, and said with a smile:
"Zi Dan is a professional martial arts actor. He is proficient in all kinds of martial arts, such as horse riding and archery. By the way, Teacher Jiang is also very good at equestrian skills, right? In "Bullet", he was very cool in riding horses and shooting guns. How about we add some for Cao Cao? A martial arts scene on horseback?"
As if inspired, his expression gradually became excited, and he was really thinking about the feasibility of doing this.
"How about fighting Guan Yu? The two of them fight for hundreds of rounds, and then cherish each other..."
Cao Cao versus Guan Yu?
Fight for hundreds of rounds?
Jiang Wen sometimes really admires the imagination of these directors in Hong Kong. There are no restrictions at all and they dare to think of anything.
Moreover, the play is often changed on the spot, and the script is completely bullshit.
He liked this very much.
"Wen Qiang, Zi Dan, come on, I have an idea."
Mai Zhaohui shouted on the walkie-talkie.
After a while, Zhuang Wenqiang, another director and screenwriter of the "Guan Yunchang" crew, and the starring Zheng Zidan came over.
"Just now I thought..."
Mai Zhaohui expressed Cao Cao's thoughts on fighting Guan Yu.
Zhen Zidan didn't react at all. He grew up abroad and didn't know much about the ancient Chinese culture. He had never read "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
The reason why I acted in this movie was that the director paid three visits to the thatched cottage, and the employer gave me too much.
And a martial arts scene was added.
He glanced at Jiang Wen next to him.
In the past few days, he has been suppressed by Jiang Wen in Wenxi. Sometimes, under Jiang Wen's aura, his mind goes blank.
But when it comes to martial arts, his area of expertise, it's different.
He wished that all his scenes with Jiang Wen would be changed to martial arts scenes. Naturally, he would not refuse and expressed his support with a smile:
"Okay, I don't quite understand. You decide and I will design the movements for Teacher Jiang. It will definitely look good."
With these words, Mai Zhaohui felt relieved, which was why he called Zhen Zidan.
In addition to starring Guan Yunchang, Zhen Zidan is also the action director of the film.
Then he turned his attention to Zhuang Wenqiang.
But Zhuang Wenqiang was a little hesitant at this time.
Can Cao Cao fight Guan Yu for hundreds of rounds?
Is this a serious fight?
In fact, he was already inclined to disagree. If he had spoken out in private based on his relationship with Mai Zhaohui, but now that there were others around, he couldn't refute his friend's face, so he said tactfully:
"Isn't it a little too out-of-the-box?"
"Escape... Our drama is inherently different from history and novels." Mai Zhaohui said.
Have you ever seen a bearded man with a beard?
Have you ever seen the sister-in-law who fell in love with Guan Yu?
"We are just using Guan Yu to tell the story we want to tell. Isn't "Journey to the West" very different from "Journey to the West"?"
Mai Zhaohui said again.
This is also the confidence that supports their bold adaptation.
The adaptation of "Westward Journey" can be successful, and there is no reason why "Guan Yunchang" cannot be adapted.
Zhuang Wenqiang had nothing to say, but he still vaguely felt that the adaptation of "Westward Journey" was not the same thing as "Guan Yunchang".
He looked at Jiang Wen:
"What does Teacher Jiang think?"
Hong Kong people generally lack understanding of the history of the Chinese Empire, but Jiang Wen is a "historical expert" and he helped modify many lines in the script into Mandarin.
Jiang Wen felt that there was nothing to worry about. Wouldn't it be enough to take a photo and see if it was necessary?It won't be easy to cut it off at that time.
Just as he was about to speak, a girl suddenly ran over. She was Jiang Wen’s assistant. She was holding a cell phone and panting:
"Teacher Jiang, the phone number is from Director Qin."
Jiang Wen showed a smile, took the phone, waved to Mai Zhaohui and others, then walked to the corner to answer the phone, and his assistant followed him.
When the remaining three people heard "Director Qin", they instantly understood who it was.
Zhen Zidan is thinking about finding an opportunity to get to know Qin Muchu through Jiang Wen, so that there will be multiple ways in the future.
Suddenly, I found that Mai Zhaohui and Zhuang Wenqiang had different expressions, a little regretful and a little unconvinced.
"Director Mai? Director Zhuang?"
he shouted.
"Oh, oh, let's continue and see how this scene can be changed..."
Zhuang Wenqiang was the first to come to his senses and touched Mai Zhaohui, who was still distracted next to him.
Mai Zhaohui also woke up. When he saw the look in his friend's eyes, he sighed lightly and said nothing. However, his mood dropped, which was especially obvious compared to the excitement when he was about to join the martial arts scene just now.
Zhen Zidan saw something was wrong:
"What's wrong, Director Mai? Are you having trouble with Qin Muchu?"
"No, no, we haven't seen it."
Mai Zhaohui shook his hand.
After a pause, the three people present were all from Hong Kong Island. He thought for a while and then said:
"Do you know "Infernal Affairs"?"
"know."
Zhen Zidan nodded.
The most popular movie in Hong Kong at the moment, it has attracted a lot of attention.
"I had a similar idea in the early years. I wrote a script with Aqiang, which was similar to "Infernal Affairs", but no one liked it, so it was not made."
Mai Zhaohui's tone was a bit sad, and Zhuang Wenqiang also sighed.
The general content of "Infernal Affairs" is not a secret within the circle, they know it easily.
"Are you saying that "Infernal Affairs" copied your idea?"
Zhen Zidan said something shocking and looked at the two of them with wide eyes.
If that were the case, that would be big news.
"no no."
Zhuang Wenqiang waved his hands repeatedly, he couldn't say these things casually, as he might make enemies.
explained:
"It's just similar, but it's still very different. At that time, we only had the line of police undercover underworld."
……
""Guan Yunchang"? Is there any director who dares to ask you to act?"
Qin Muchu's surprised voice came from the phone.
"Fart, how come no one dares to ask me to act?"
Jiang Wen lit a cigarette and saw a shed storing boiling water not far away, so he walked over.
How come no one dares to ask you to act? You don’t know why?
Qin Muchu didn't bother to talk to Jiang Wen and went straight to the topic:
"Are you in Yanjing? I need to get the certificate."
"..."
Jiang Wen was holding a cigarette. He had already behaved as he could, but something went wrong today.
He took a puff of cigarette but forgot to spit it out.
The whole figure seemed to be still.
"Hey, do you hear me? Xiao Jiang, say something."
The still picture began to flow, and a long puff of smoke was exhaled. Jiang Wen threw the cigarette on the ground, as if to make up for the "still" time just now, and kept talking like pouring beans:
"With Huimin? Did you discuss it? When? Today?"
On the other end of the phone, listening to Comrade Lao Jiang's somewhat incoherent words, Qin Muchu smiled:
"Well, just these two days, I need to prepare some materials."
"Haha, okay...Xiao Yang and Xiao Zeng..."
"It's all been discussed, and it was they who brought it up..."
After chatting for almost half an hour, the two of them hung up the phone.
"Haha."
Jiang Wen was stunned for a long time, then suddenly laughed out loud.
My son is getting married. Even though he is a married woman, it is not much different from a married woman.
Counting the days, my granddaughter will be born in a few months.
He suddenly felt that his life was complete.
He walked out of the shed with a smile on his face and bumped into the movie heroine who was walking towards here with a water glass.
"Teacher Jiang, it's a happy event to smile so happily." Sun Li said with a smile.
"Haha, happy event, great happy event."
Jiang Wen smiled even more happily, but did not elaborate, waved and walked away.
Sun Li's smile gradually faded after Jiang Wen left. She had actually been here for a while.
"Qin Muchu and Zhou Huimin are getting married?"
She murmured in her mouth, and after thinking about it, she stopped taking the water. She took out her mobile phone, edited a text message, and sent it to "Chao'er".
……
"How's it going?"
Zhou Huimin asked impatiently after Qin Muchu hung up the phone.
"disagree……"
Qin Muchu's face was heavy.
This made Zhou Huimin's heart skip a beat.
disagree?
But the last time we met in Hong Kong Island, we were obviously very satisfied and even gave him a "family heirloom". How could it be...
"It's impossible."
"Oh, you, you... you are so annoying!"
Zhou Huimin was so angry that she looked for something everywhere, as if she wanted to beat Qin Muchu, but finally her eyes rested on her slightly bulging belly.
He gritted his teeth and raised his hands:
"I'm going to beat your daughter!"
"Hey, I'm teasing you."
Although Qin Muchu knew that Zhou Huimin would not really fight, he still held Zhou Huimin's hands flatteringly, held her in his arms, and kissed her twice on the face.
"Hmph, I don't want to kiss you."
Zhou Huimin struggled to resist, punching Qin Muchu twice on the chest.
Qin Muchu didn't take it seriously, sat on the bed with his arms around her, and joked:
"When the lawyer faxes your materials over, you won't be able to kiss me until you kiss her."
Zhou Huimin's face gradually turned rosy.
As a Hong Kong Islander, she cannot register with her ID card and household registration book like in the TV series.
There is no such thing as a household registration book in Hong Kong Island.
Fortunately, having money can save you a lot of trouble. You can directly contact the law firm on Hong Kong Island to help you prepare all the materials and just fax them over.
At that time, she was Mrs. Qin.
Qin Muchu wanted to tease Zhou Huimin again, but suddenly the phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Mr. Han.
If you call me at this time, could it be that the old baby has told me about getting the certificate and is here to congratulate me?
or……
He suddenly remembered what Zeng Li said last night that "The Great Cause of Construction" might be delayed.
With doubts, he answered the phone.
"Xiao Qin, the production of "Jiand" has to be delayed."
There was no pleasantries or too many words. Mr. Han got straight to the point, but there was an unconcealable tiredness in his voice.
"Third Master, why is the startup suddenly delayed?"
Qin Muchu was not surprised by the news because he was mentally prepared in advance, but he was very curious.
Generally, the opening ceremony of a movie will not be delayed, which means that the shooting plan will be disrupted.
Especially for a movie like "Building" that brings together stars from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places, it is difficult to coordinate the schedules of so many stars, and the delayed start will cause a lot of trouble.
Mr. Han was silent for a while when faced with this problem. He wanted to find some excuse to deal with it. After all, this was really not a glorious thing.
But thinking that Qin Muchu might be able to give useful advice, the words that came to his lips turned into telling the truth:
"Some leaders were dissatisfied and said it was too confusing and asked us to revise it."
Qin Muchu was stunned.
The first reaction was that Mr. Han was being manipulated.
The movie was about to be released, but suddenly it was modified. Isn't this a joke?
But then I thought about it, if you can delay the start of "Jiand" with just one sentence, no matter how big a leader you are, you won't have to use this method to punish the third master.
But he still doesn't understand:
"Didn't everything go wrong before?"
"Yes."
Mr. Han smiled bitterly:
"There was no problem before. A few days ago, I went to a meeting to report on the gift film shooting plan, and a new leader was not satisfied."
"..."
New leader?
Is it the first thing the new official did when he took office, or is it due to other reasons?
Qin Muchu shook his head and comforted:
"Then it's just bad luck... By the way, Third Master, when will the startup be delayed?"
"It's not decided yet. This matter hasn't been resolved yet. I don't know what went wrong. Alas, it's really a mistake..."
Mr. Han couldn't help but use foul language, and felt extremely melancholy.
Qin Muchu, on the other hand... Although it was a little unreasonable to say this, he really wanted to laugh.
I don’t know what went wrong, so I’m stuck and can’t take pictures.
Is this scene familiar?
You have today too.
If Ning Hao knew about this, wouldn't he be able to open the champagne?
"Xiao Qin, do you have any suggestions? You have also read the script and know our shooting plan. From a director's point of view, what do you think is the problem?"
"Cough cough."
Qin Muchu suppressed his smile, hesitated and said:
"Everything is fine, I... don't see any problems."
Mr. Han heard Qin Muchu's hesitation and knew why he didn't mean what he said:
"Xiao Qin, now that it's time, there's nothing we can't say."
"Well, there's no problem."
"...Xiao Qin, if you want to do this, then I..."
Mr. Han thought for a while, and it seemed that nothing could threaten Qin Muchu, and suddenly an idea flashed:
"In the future, Jiang Wen's films must be reviewed carefully and should be reviewed by experts in modern history."
"..."
Qin Muchu was speechless and glanced at Zhou Huimin next to him.
One threatens me with my father, and the other threatens me with my daughter?
It’s not a disaster for your family, so what are the rules on the road?
However, this also shows that Mr. Han was really anxious. Qin Muchu finally chose to speak, but did not say "there is a problem":
"Hmm...if I took pictures, some places might be different."
"Well, tell me, if you want to change some parts of the photo."
Master Han knew that Qin Muchu didn't want to offend anyone, so he followed his words.
"Third Master, you know that I like real-life photography. If I can do real-life photography, I basically don't need special effects..."
Special effects?
Mr. Han was stunned for a moment, remembering what the leader said was "too confusing", and he seemed to have grasped something.
"Special effects are used in many scenes in "Building D", such as the palace and the Nanhu Conference. If I were to shoot it, I might actually shoot it..."
Qin Muchu wanted to say this the last time he went to the opening ceremony of "Step by Step" and watched the set of "Building D".
The script is too fragmented, which can be said to be a flaw, or it can also be said that this is the style of the movie.
But there are some areas that can be improved.
For example, a large number of scenes are fictionalized with special effects.
When Qin Muchu heard his boss say it was "too confusing," his first reaction was that these scenes were made up with special effects.
He could almost conclude that the special effects in the later stage were absolutely fake, the kind that cost [-] cents to cut out.
Because this kind of large-scale special effects virtual scene needs to appear real and not inconsistent, there is only one movie that Qin Muchu has seen with his own eyes that can do this - "Iron Man".
Tony's ocean view villa in the movie was made purely with special effects.
And the money spent to produce the special effects for those shots is millions of dollars - in dollars.
Currently, there is only one special effects production company with this kind of technology in China, Suirenshi.
Qin Muchu also called Xu Jian specifically to ask that [Suirenshi] had not received an order for "Jiand".
Thinking that he wanted this order, Xu Jian even inquired specifically, and the order for "Jiand" was handed over to a newly established small company.
I've never heard of any works like that before...
This……
"Okay, Xiao Qin, I understand. I will change these scenes later and submit them again.
Alas, Lao Huang and I didn't think it was appropriate at the time, but some people said that it would be easier to coordinate the actors' schedules this way. You don't have to run to different studios, and you don't have to worry about day and night. You can shoot when you come. Haha, I didn't expect it to be self-defeating. "
Mr. Han felt that this was what the leader meant when he said "too confused". When he found the symptom, he felt very inspired.
It's easy to coordinate the schedule...
Qin Muchu twitched the corners of his mouth.
This reason sounds quite reasonable. If he didn't know about the special effects company, he would probably believe it.
After thinking about it, he said:
"Third Master, it's hard to make special effects realistic, and it will definitely cost a lot of money. Some unnecessary special effects not only affect the quality of the film, but also increase the cost in vain."
He emphasized on "increased costs".
Whether you can understand it or not depends on the third master himself.
The third master, who has been in the world for decades, immediately sensed the smell and pondered for a long time:
"No way?"
"No what?"
Qin Muchu played dumb.
Any industry has its gray profit area, and the film industry has even more gray profits, and there are not a few people who take advantage of it.
This line of work seems to be high-income, but only a few people can get it, and it belongs to the top of the tower.
The income of most ordinary crew members is not high.
Moreover, the work does not last day or night, and there are no holidays. If you don’t provide money and water, let people devote themselves to art?
Therefore, as long as the situation is touched within a certain range, the crew actually acquiesces to this situation.
It was also for this reason that Qin Muchu didn't say anything before.
Why offend someone, especially if this person is probably from China Film Group.
Today, it just so happened that he had reached this point, so he gave Third Master a heads up.
And I mention it very politely, it will never stick to the pan.
"You kid..."
After Mr. Han laughed and cursed, his expression gradually became serious.
It's okay to take advantage of the crew, this is an "unspoken rule".
But you can't fool him, let alone let him be fooled by the leader's scolding.
What's more, the special effects production fee reported was not a small figure.
