Chapter 498 "Farewell My Concubine"

Night, eight o'clock, in a high-end hotel.

Bamboo fences separate the elegant seats one after another, and the lights of the entire restaurant are bright and free. During the dinner, the guests who eat and talk also subconsciously lower their voices, making the place have an indescribably clean and elegant atmosphere.

With two bright lights, Li Qian and Feng Yumin sat opposite each other.

There are only a few meat and vegetable dishes on the table, other than that, there is an opened bottle of Luzhou Laojiao, and two blue and white porcelain wine glasses.

Feng Yumin is from Sichuan and has a special liking for Luzhou Laojiao. Cao Zhan prefers famous northern wines, especially Zhuyeqing.

The recording of the first episode of "Ruoxuan is Coming" was about 40 minutes after the editing was completed, but it was recorded for nearly three hours. After chatting with Bai Yujing and Zhu Qiang in the second half, Sun Ruoxuan's performance She was quite calm, but she recorded the first ten minutes of the joke for a full hour and a half, making frequent mistakes.

But the recording was finally finished, Feng Kaige said it was not bad, so of course everyone wanted to celebrate.

Find a better hotel to open a box, Sun Ruoxuan, Xie Bing, Wang Jingxue, Qi Jie, Zou Wenhuai, including Wang Xiaodao and others, all went there, Li Qian and Feng Yumin also sat there for a while, and then let them make a fuss together, The two pulled out and found another hotel, ready to sit down and chat.

In the afternoon, although it was just a few words, Li Qian already knew that Feng Yumin was blocked internally.

Ordinarily, with Feng Yumin's position as the director of the TV drama production center, and his super status in the domestic TV drama industry, almost no one is qualified to block him. However, Zhao Bingyuan is the deputy director, and he is also the deputy director in charge of film and television. After arranging the next few plays, Feng Yumin naturally relaxed immediately.

Drink three rounds.

Li Qian asked: "Are you ready, that's it?"

Feng Yumin smiled, showing no signs of anger after being suppressed, but rather indifferently, "What else can I do? I, let's just mess around, I'm not too young, and it's not a bad thing to take a break. I have "Journey to the West" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in my hand, to be honest, this life is enough."

Li Qian curled his lips and did not speak. He picked up the cup, and the two of them "ding" each other to drink.

Nanjiu is clear and luscious, soft in the mouth, but when it touches the throat, it burns immediately.

After eating a cup, Feng Yumin picked up two chopsticks, put down the chopsticks, and said leisurely: "Xiaolu's standard is still very high. Although women are naturally at a disadvantage in terms of big vision, the script of "Wu Zetian", I have taken people to polish it several times, and I feel relieved when she comes to shoot, there is not much difference... Oh, Xiaolu, Lu Ruoying, you know?"

Li Qian nodded.

Lu Ruoying, the deputy director of the TV series production center of Huaxia TV Station, when Li Qian's studio was just established, the business of film and television soundtracks could not be opened for a while, Qi Jie spent a lot of effort to get from Lu Ruoying In his hand, he won the ticket for the soundtrack of "Love in a Troubled World" that she was in charge of at the time. Later, Li Qian impressed Lu Ruoying with two songs, "The Great River Goes East" and "Ye Lai Xiang", and successfully won the ticket. The soundtrack of "Love in a Troubled World" was also the first soundtrack business for a film and television drama that Li Qian's studio received, and after the establishment of Minghu Culture, he has always had various business contacts with Lu Ruoying. Having had dinner with her once, Qi Jie even had a pretty good relationship with her, so of course Li Qian knew her.

"She is a very thoughtful person, and she has a solid foundation." Li Qian said.

Feng Yumin nodded with a smile, and said: "Recently, the theater has decided to open two major dramas, the other being "Fengshen Bang", these two dramas, to be honest, I originally planned to do one next year, and another one the year after. Yes, now, it was taken out ahead of time, and it was actually forced by you, the white lady. Haha! Xiaolu wanted to compete for "Fengshen Bang" at first, and asked me for advice. I still suggested her to compete for "Wu Zetian "! One is that women have an advantage in filming women, and the other is... "Legend of the New White Snake" became popular, and everyone thought that classical mythology would follow suit, so the competition in "Fengshen Bang" was too fierce. "

Li Qian nodded, took the initiative to pick up the glass, and clinked a glass with him.

After drinking another glass, put down the glass, Feng Yumin picked up the food, and then continued talking. Li Qian knew that he just wanted to talk to someone, so he tried to interrupt as little as possible and let him speak by himself, saying what he wanted to say.

"I'm right now, I can't get up, and I can't get down. I'm not the kind of person who can be an official, so if I climb to the position of director of the production center, I've reached the top. , there are also bad ones, hey, in a flash, I have been in this industry for more than 30 years! Tired! It's time to take a break!"

Li Qian smiled and filled the cups for both of them without arguing.

The two have known each other since Feng Yumin went to Suncheon Film Academy to cast roles for "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". During the filming, because the Soochow Group was not led by Feng Yumin, their communication was limited. They have a common language, and once they come and go, they become more and more familiar, but in just a few years, they have reached the point where they can speak their minds at the wine table.

For him, Li Qian thought he knew him well.

The two handed down classics were born in his hands. If you want to talk about pride, then of course he has the capital of absolute pride. However, if someone else said what you just said, maybe Li Qian would believe it, but Feng Yumin... The more he said that, the more indifferent he acted, the more Li Qian didn't believe that he would be suppressed so willingly.

To be able to stand out in a place like China TV where there are many masters, and become a leading master in the domestic TV drama production industry in the past 30 years, he is not the kind of casual temperament of "seeing Nanshan leisurely".

Feng Yumin talked for a long time by himself, only to realize that Li Qian hadn't made any complaints from the beginning to the end. He couldn't help laughing and said, "Why are you doing this? Are you leaving me alone? What's wrong with what I said?"

Li Qian laughed again.

After a pause, he said, "I remember the box office of your son's movie well?"

Feng Yumin looked up at him.

Feng Yumin's son, Feng Bicheng, graduated from the Directing Department of Huaxia Drama Academy. With a father like Feng Yumin, he can of course start easier than ordinary people. After graduating from university, he stayed in Huaxia TV for several years and worked on several TV series. After being an assistant director, he officially resigned the year before last and made a small-budget comedy film called "Half a Hero", which was released in the autumn and winter of last year and was very popular. It is said that there was only an investment of about 3 million yuan, but it finally got back more than 20 million yuan at the box office, which was considered an instant hit.

Li Qian looked at Feng Yumin and said, "Let your young master come to Minghu. I'll sell him some shares, and we'll work together to do something. You know, I'm going to do this job next, and I need people!"

Feng Yumin understood the words in seconds.

His so-called being blocked is obviously related to Zhao Bingyuan being evil because of the "Legend of the New White Snake". , In fact, I just want to pay back.

In the entire domestic entertainment circle, including the music circle and film and television circle, the profitability of Minghu Culture is definitely second to none. Let alone giving it away, it is selling it. As long as Li Qian is willing to sell it, I don’t know how many people are willing to spend money to buy shares!

Feng Yumin thought for a while, smiled, and shook his head helplessly.

"I'll take your wish, but now people's wings are hardened, and they keep saying that the next movie will cost more than 100 million! Hey, I can't control it anymore. You don't have to worry about this. I'm fine, really!"

Hearing this, Li Qian thought for a while, then laughed, "That's right, he's probably at his peak right now, so I'll just wait."

Hearing this, Feng Yumin stretched out his hand and nodded to Li Qian, "You, my son is almost ten years older than you... Sigh!"

Li Qian laughed when he heard this.

He really didn't deliberately find a group of old men and old men to make friends with. In fact, he was a forty-year-old man. His vision and thinking were not on the same line as young people in their early twenties. On the contrary, with Cao Zhan, with Wang Huaiyu, with Feng Yumin, with Zhao Yigu, and even with Zou Wenhuai, he and these "old guys", the way of talking and doing things will be more compatible.

They don't even need to talk too much to each other. They are both middle-aged and smart people. With a few simple words, they will understand each other, and their brain waves are definitely on the same frequency. Much the same.

Because Feng Yumin was involved in the "Legend of the New White Snake", Li Qian wanted to make up for it, but when Feng Bicheng was very ambitious, he might not be enthusiastic, so this kind of compensation would not feel very good significance.

But it doesn't matter, whether it is Feng Yumin or Li Qian, based on their life experience, they can all feel that the more people who have not experienced any ups and downs, the easier it is for a drama to shine in the next one. Suffered a failure.

It's just that saying this now seems a bit bad-mouthing.

So, Feng Yumin thought for a while, waved his hand, picked up the cup, and said, "Let's talk!"

Li Qian smiled, and picked up the cup, but he didn't clink glasses with him for a long time, but looked at Feng Yumin with piercing eyes, and said, "Or, you come here?"

"Me?" Feng Yumin was a little surprised.

With a ding, Li Qian clinked glasses with him, and said with a smile: "Jin Han's future is definitely fine, but it's a little bit of a shame to let him take the lead now. If you can come, we will join hands, this game of chess will I can feel confident!"

Feng Yumin thought for a while, smiled, and shook his head, "No, no! I haven't played against you yet. Next, I'm going to find a chance to make another play and compare myself to you!"

Li Qian smiled when he heard the words, raised his cup and drank it down, put down the cup, and said with a smile: "Come here, we each have a movie, compare the box office, isn't it just right?"

"Movie?"

Feng Yumin was taken aback when he heard the words, and then his eyes lit up, "Are you going to let me go over and make a movie for you?"

…………

Li Qian has a lot of good scripts in his hands and even more in his mind.

There are quite a few domestic ones, and many foreign ones. Although many of them require traumatic surgery to fit the domestic social situation and national psychology, the number is even greater.

Therefore, as soon as they talked about movies, the two of them talked faster without knowing it.

Feng Yumin has been filming TV series all his life, but as a top student in the directing department of Shuncheon Film Academy, it is by no means that he does not want to make movies.

Therefore, Li Qian invited Feng Yumin to join Minghu Culture. Feng Yumin, the director of the TV drama production center of Huaxia TV, had no intention of being tempted at all, even though he knew that as long as he went to Minghu Culture, Li Qian would never treat him badly. But as soon as Li Qian mentioned movies, especially when he casually mentioned a movie book "under consideration", Feng Yumin immediately showed great interest.

This story is called "Farewell My Concubine".

A touching story, and unless you are a master of masters, you dare not touch it.

It involves Peking Opera, and it is also a historical drama and a drama of the Republic of China, which has extremely high requirements on the quality of the director himself.

Frankly speaking, it's almost the same as "To Live", it's the kind that Li Qian is extremely itchy now, but dare not shoot.

But it is precisely because such a play is extremely challenging, and the story is really awesome, so after listening to the story, Feng Yumin immediately showed a look of excitement, grabbed Li Qian, and eagerly Asked and discussed.

Before I knew it, it was half past nine.

Seeing that Feng Yumin was already extremely excited, Li Qian was about to work harder when his cell phone rang untimely.

He took out his phone and looked at it, a little surprised.

It turned out to be Teacher Luling and Rhinoceros.

Hurry up to connect, and the voice of Lu Lingxi on the phone rang immediately, "Li Qian, are you eating at this place called 'Ruyi Restaurant'? I saw your car!"

"Uh... yes, Mr. Lu, are you downstairs?"

Lu Lingxi panted a little, "Are you busy?"

Li Qian looked up at Feng Yumin. Although he was reluctant to let go of this opportunity, he replied immediately: "I'm fine. I'm having dinner with my friends. Do you have something to do? How about I go down for a while?" ?”

Lu Lingxi heard the words and said directly: "Come down, come down and help me, ouch...Grandma, please slow down...be careful..."

Li Qian was stunned, hung up the phone, and wanted to talk, but Feng Yumin had already waved his hand, "If you have something to do, go and get busy, I just have to take care of your book! If there is something to do, you don't have to come up, I will pay later All right, let's go!"

Li Qian showed an apologetic smile, turned his head and walked out without being polite to him.

When I came downstairs, I saw that Lu Lingxi was supporting a long-haired woman with a shawl. Both of them were leaning against his car. Li Qian yelled and ran over. He didn't see clearly until he got closer. It seemed to be... Qin Jingjing.
