Chapter 362
At 02:30 in the afternoon, Qin Muchu and his party left the hotel room to attend the launch ceremony of "Step by Step".
The ceremony site was in the open space next to the hotel. A huge poster was erected under the green trees, and a red carpet was laid out leading to the offering table in front of the poster.
It was Qin Muchu's first time to participate in the opening ceremony of a TV series, which was quite different from the opening ceremony of a movie.
The crew walked along the short red carpet to the altar table, placed a stick of incense, and then took some photos for reporters.
That's right, Tang Ren invited reporters.
Unlike Qin Muchu's opening ceremony, which was purely a formality and would not actively reveal the cast and crew and the filming situation during the filming, Tang Ren's opening ceremony was more like a "show" and an external publicity.
We are filming a new film, please remember to pay attention and watch it when the time comes.
That's probably what it means.
Not only Tang Ren, but also most of the crew's opening ceremonies have this purpose. There are few that are truly feudal and superstitious.
So when Qin Muchu walked onto the red carpet with Yang Mi, Zeng Li, and Liu Xiqian, the reporters were stunned for a moment, and then took pictures like crazy.
There is only one thought in my mind.
How could they come! ?
These people are obviously not on the same level as Tang Ren and the other little Karamies. Even Yang Mi, who is the least famous, looks down on ordinary second-tier actors because of her many guest roles in Qin Muchu's movies.
Cai Yinong smiled even brighter when she saw this scene. This was her purpose of inviting Qin Muchu to attend the opening ceremony, to use his reputation to build momentum for the TV series.
Unexpectedly, Qin Muchu bought one and got three free and brought three more.
She actually felt a little guilty about "Bu Bu Jing Xin". After all, this was Liu Shishi's first time playing the heroine, and she was the main heroine, and Tang Ren's ratings guarantee that Hu Ge did not participate.
I really have no idea, so I can only seek all available external forces to create popularity for "Bu Bu Jing Xin".
So when the reporter asked Qin Muchu and others during the interview why they attended the opening ceremony of "Bu Bu Jing Xin", Cai Yinong said that [Chao Qin Mu Chu] is also one of the producers of "Bu Bu Jing Xin", and this is the joint effort of the two companies. Excellent work created through cooperation and joint efforts.
Then there are the overwhelming praises for "Bu Bu Jing Xin", a Qing palace drama that breaks the rules and combines various elements of palace fighting, conspiracy, time travel, and love. The actors have studied the script for nearly a year, deepened their characters, and learned ancient etiquette. .
The reporters felt... very annoyed.
Did the horse-riding man ask you?
Your little mouth keeps buzzing, will the audience like to see you talking?Let Qin Muchu and others talk!
My inner feelings towards Cai Yinong were completely reversed from when I received the red envelope half an hour ago.
After finally catching Cai Yinong talking, a reporter immediately took advantage of the opportunity to ask Qin Muchu and others.
"What does Director Qin think of "Step by Step"? To attend the opening ceremony this time, it means that almost all the company is involved, right?" a reporter asked.
It is reasonable for [Chao Qin Muchu] to participate in the opening ceremony as one of the producers, but [Chao Qin Muchu] is involved in a lot of production and investment, and Qin Muchu is not seen attending the opening ceremony, and even if he does, there is no need to bring so many of his artists to attend.
Qin Muchu wanted to say that he was simply dragged here by Yang Misheng, but he definitely couldn't say that. Just when he was thinking about how to answer, Yang Mi spoke.
""Bu Bu Jing Xin" is definitely a very good drama. Today is the opening ceremony. We happen to work in Huairou. The heroines Shi Shi, Lao Yuan, Xiao Ting... are all our good friends. Let’s enjoy the opening ceremony together.”
As Yang Mi spoke, she put her arms around Liu Shishi's shoulders and hugged her tightly, almost cheek to cheek, with smiles on their faces that made anyone think they were a pair of good best friends.
The reporters flashed their lights and recorded the moment.
However, Liu Shishi's eyes in the camera are round and two points larger than usual. She seems...a little confused?
Not sure, look again.
Well, leaning on Yang Mi's head, her round eyes have turned into crescent moons, and she is smiling happily.
Sure enough, what should have just been a change in expression was captured on camera.
Yang Mi and Liu Shishi often posted some intimate photos during "The Immortal [-]". It's no secret that the two have a good relationship, and there have been no rumors of a breakdown in their relationship. After all, there is no conflict of interest between the two, and fans don't want to fight. .
One is a little red and the other is a big one. There is a huge difference.
And Liu Shishi's journey from being confused to happy when being hugged by Yang Mi was indeed a journey.
She had always felt guilty about Yang Mi and wanted to find an opportunity to apologize to Yang Mi and get back on good terms with her, but Yang Mi's behavior in her opinion meant getting back on good terms.
Listening to Yang Mi's words, Qin Muchu thought of an interview Jiang Wen participated in some time ago, where he talked about the fun of movies and gave an example.
When filming "Song of Qin", in order to play Gao Jianli well, Uncle Ge specially found a teacher to teach him how to play the piano. The teacher was very beautiful.
This sounds normal.
But he just didn't say that.
But when Uncle Ge played Gao Jianli, a very beautiful female teacher taught Uncle Ge to play the piano by hand, and Uncle Ge studied very seriously.
The taste changed instantly.
And he didn't lie either.
Yang Mi's words at this time had the same purpose but the same approach.
By changing the order like this, their coming to the booting ceremony became a casual and friendly act.
"Can you tell me what your job is? Has Director Qin started a new movie?"
While Qin Muchu secretly sighed at Yang Mi's cunning, a reporter discovered the "splendid point" in Yang Mi's answer and immediately asked excitedly.
Qin Muchu can answer this question:
"No, it's "The Great Cause of Construction". We are participating in it, so come and take a look in advance."
Two days ago, the crew of "The Great Cause of Construction" announced the first batch of actors and actresses. There are about 100 people, including them, so there is nothing to keep secret.
The reporters also knew the news. Just as they were about to ask for more information about the movie, Qin Muchu added:
"Don't ask about this movie. If you ask me, I can't tell you. It needs to be kept secret."
Suddenly, the reporter's words were choked back.
Also, no one dares to say anything about this kind of movie unless they get permission.
But Qin Muchu is here, if he doesn't find some news, it feels like there are ants crawling on him.
Their thinking changed very quickly. Since we can't ask about "Building D", let's ask other film offices.
"Director Qin, when will "Love Letter" be released?"
Starting from a photo of Huimin on Weibo last week in January, and now approaching April, "Love Letter" has always been the most anticipated movie.
Because this is not only the work of Qin Muchu, but also Zhang Yimou as the photographer.
Both outside and inside the industry are looking forward to the collaboration between the old and new directors.
"Hmm... Probably May or June, we will let you know when it will be.
Qin Muchu gave a vague answer.
If "Love Letter" is shortlisted for Cannes, it will be after Cannes. If it is not shortlisted, it will naturally be released as soon as possible.
But you can’t say this to reporters, otherwise you will definitely be asked endless questions.
After asking Qin Muchu, the reporters asked Zeng Li and Yang Mi again, and they all said that they had work arrangements in the future, all the way to Liu Xiqian.
The media were delighted to see her, their eyes flowing between her and Qin Muchu.
"Wasn't Sissi hidden by the boss?" the reporter asked with a smile.
This is something posted on Weibo between jokes.
Liu Xiqian suddenly smiled and narrowed her eyes, and hooked Yang Mi's arm:
"Ah, my boss is Mimi. Someone can't hide me."
"Yes, I protect Sissi."
Yang Mi immediately stepped into her waist in cooperation.
The reporters all laughed kindly and looked at Qin Muchu.
The employment relationship between them is no secret. Qin Muchu is indeed not Liu Xiqian's boss, but he is Liu Xiqian's boss.
This is not Rome and does not believe in the "slave of slaves is not my slave" mentality.
"Does Cici have any work arrangements? "Inception" was filmed the year before last, and it has been almost a year and a half now. What are you doing without filming in the past year and a half?" The reporter asked.
Not filming for a year and a half is definitely a scary thing for a young and popular actor.
Liu Xiqian was stunned for a moment, have I rested for so long?
In her daze, a voice sounded, causing her teeth to clenched immediately.
"Growing meat, what else can you do? I saw that you didn't follow her on Weibo. You eat and sleep every day. You are so fat that you can't even film..." Qin Muchu stopped talking for a moment, turned sideways to avoid the slap, and pointed to run. Liu Xiqian, who came to beat him, said again:
"Look, she's anxious."
The reporters burst into laughter again, and Liu Xiqian returned to the main topic of the interview after being pulled back by Yang Mi and Zeng Li.
"I did take a break before, but now, I am already preparing for a new drama, because the role requires working hard every day."
At this point, she glanced at Qin Muchu reluctantly, asking if she could continue.
Noisy things come and go, but business is still taken seriously.
Qin Muchu also shook his head vaguely.
This silly girl's so-called role requirements are completely lies to her. It's better not to let the audience and fans wait in vain.
Upon seeing this, Liu Xiqian remained silent and stopped talking about the new movie.
The reporters had no choice but to curse people like them in their hearts for half-talking.
……
Hengdian.
Ming and Qing palaces.
This is one of the main production areas of the Qing court dramas in the Celestial Dynasty. Many Qing palace dramas were filmed here.
Today is no exception.
A fat black man sat under an umbrella, staring at the performances of the actors on the set, especially the actresses, frowning, and muttering:
"It still doesn't work, it's better without Yang Mi..."
Suddenly, a girl next to him ran over, came to his side and whispered:
"Teacher Yu, there is news from the crew of "Bu Bu Jing Xin"."
When the fat black man, who was a little lazy just now, heard this, he immediately sat up straight, took the mobile phone handed over by the girl, and looked at it seriously.
When the girl saw the nervous look of the fat man, she felt a little guilty.
Hei Fatty is not an unknown person, but also a well-known screenwriter - Yu Zheng, and she is Yu Zheng's new assistant.
Since the project of "Palace" was established, Yu Zheng asked her to pay attention to a drama called "Bu Bu Jing Xin" and to inform him of any troubles.
Although she didn't understand why, she still did it.
"Teacher Yu, how about I bring a small fan?"
After showing Yu Zheng the phone for a while, the assistant noticed that he was sweating.
Although it is a sunny day today, it is not yet April after all, the temperature is not high, and some people are wearing long sleeves.
Not to mention that Yu Zheng was still sitting under the umbrella.
The only explanation for that is...
The assistant looked down and shook his head in disgust.
"No, you did a good job."
Yu Zheng stood up and didn't notice the assistant's expression at all.
He doesn't care about it anymore.
After returning the phone to the assistant, he immediately walked to the director's side.
Just at this time, the director shouted "Cut" and wanted to tell the actors about the scene, but was pulled aside by Yu Zheng.
"Director Li, can we speed up the progress of this drama?"
"Teacher Yu, what's wrong?"
The director was stunned for a moment.
How long a film will take to be filmed is decided in advance, and there are corresponding plans every day. It can be accelerated as soon as possible.
Yu Zheng didn't know what to say, because he couldn't say the words.
The director frowned when he saw this.
I want to speed up the progress for no reason, and I can't even give a reason.
If it weren't for the fact that you are a screenwriter and producer, I would have slapped you to death and thrown you into the street.
So he casually said:
"Teacher Yu, I also want to finish the filming as soon as possible, but it depends on the actors. If they can do it less often, the progress will definitely be accelerated. I will go and tell the actors the scene."
After finishing speaking, he was about to leave when he noticed Yu Zheng who was sweating profusely and reminded him again:
"Teacher Yu, you've sweated a lot. If you hadn't gone back to the hotel to wash up, you wouldn't have been on the set all day."
Normally, Yu Zheng would have thought that this was the director's connotation. He was nosy on the set every day, keeping a notebook in his mind, and looking for opportunities to return it later.
But now he was standing there, with his face turning blue and blue, big beads of sweat dripping from his face, and he didn't hear what the director said at all.
There is only one thought in my heart.
[Chao Qin Mu Chu] Why did you become one of the producers of "Bu Bu Jing Xin"?
Aren't there rumors that Yang Mi and Tang Ren are at odds?
Swallowing, I kept praying in my heart that this drama must be aired earlier than "Scary Step by Step", otherwise it would be over.
As for what happens next... we’ll talk about it later.
……
At this time, two men landed at the Capital Airport very low-key.
The taller man held the mobile phone, stopped, and pulled the man next to him.
"how?"
"Look at the news. Qin Muchu is attending the launch ceremony of a TV series in Huairou Film and Television City."
Both of them spoke Cantonese, and when they took off their masks, they could be identified as Andy Lau and his manager.
"Is this the place where "Building D" was filmed?"
Liu Dehua remembers the name "Huairou".
"Yes."
The agent nodded immediately.
Liu Dehua was silent for a while and suddenly said:
"Let's not go to the hotel now. Let's go to Huairou."
The agent understood what he meant and immediately opened the phone book:
"Let me ask which hotel the crew of "Bu Bu Jing Xin" stayed at."
"Shocking every step of the way?" Liu Dehua was puzzled.
"Yeah, that's the name of the TV series."
The manager replied, and the call was quickly dialed. He ignored Liu Dehua and walked aside to speak in Mandarin:
"Mr. Liu, it's me. Long time no see... I'm coming to the mainland. Let's get together when we have time... I have a problem..."
And Andy Lau stood in the same place, chanting the words "Scary Every Step" non-stop, with sparkles in his eyes.
In 06, he left the Xiang family and established his own company. He thought he could make a career with his fame.
The ideal is very fulfilling, but the reality is skinnier than a young and Dangerous girl wandering the streets in her teens.
It is the general trend to develop in the mainland, and he finally found a way.
But the water here is very deep, and if you take a wrong step, you may have to return to Hong Kong Island for retirement.
""Bu Bu Jing Xin", Bu Bu Jing Xin..."
