The dishes on the table at noon looked quite rich, including Nanjing's salted chicken, Quanjude's roast duck, Inner Mongolia's soy sauce beef, and Zhoushan's small yellow croaker. Unfortunately, they were all vacuum-packed cooked food. It was said that they were all New Year's goods distributed by the work unit.
The only fresh things are probably the plate of cucumbers and the dumplings made by Zhang Dabeard himself.
Dumplings are not eaten during the Chinese New Year in the South, so it is a rare occasion that they taste good.
Li Tang finally understood that she had to stay for dinner because of Mao Fan Xinman, because during the dinner she kept asking Nai'an about the scene when she got married, and then looked at the bearded man with resentment.
The bearded man felt uncomfortable all over, so he could only pull Li Tang to persuade him to drink.
It is said that the two have been together for a long time. Even though Zhang's beard is now groomed like a white-haired lion king, this guy is an actor, and I think he was also a famous handsome young man from all over the country. In particular, tough guys like Takakura Ken were popular in that era. It happened that Lao Zhang had such a flavor in him, which immediately attracted Fan Xinman, who was fifteen years younger than him and was studying at the Chinese Theater Academy at the same time as him.
You must know that Big Beard had a family at that time, and his daughter was already in her teens. For Fan Xinman, Lao Zhang resolutely abandoned his family and his daughter. To put it nicely, it's for love, but to put it badly, it means that the man takes over the concubine and the woman takes over.
Artists are all emotional.
The two have been together for almost ten years now, and they have already become husband and wife to the outside world. Maybe Lao Zhang thinks that the relationship between the two is very good at present, and it is not enough. However, Fan Xinman, who is dying of youth, obviously has a sense of crisis and urgently needs a relationship. Assure. After all, she was able to take the position as a junior back then, and there is no guarantee that there will be a junior fourth who is younger than her in the future.
As expected, Lao Zhang drank too much. He helped Fan Xinman help Lao Zhang to the bed to rest. The tipsy Li Tang hurriedly left. The young man was very angry, and he was drunk. He really couldn't stand the thinly dressed and charming young woman.
However, this trip was not in vain. Lao Zhang revealed a lot of news to him. For example, the leading actor Linghu Chong had already confirmed the role of Shao Bin, who is currently very popular.
Although there is a big difference between the black and strong Shao Bin and the image of Linghu Chong in the original work, being popular is just like the traffic in later generations. If you have enough traffic, you will not be afraid of losing ratings.
As for the choice of Lin Pingzhi, the second male lead, Lao Zhang admitted frankly that he still prefers Li Tang, and director Huang Jianzhong recommended a junior student from the Nortel Acting Department. In Huang Jianzhong's words, it was this Nortel Acting Department major. The third student has ten years of dancing skills, looks good in ancient costume, and has a hint of sinisterness in his kind eyes!
Although Lao Zhang is the producer, Huang Jianzhong is also the director after all, and he also has the right to speak. The only way is to let the two compete fairly when the time comes. Lao Zhang asked Li Tang to prepare, and the audition might be arranged on a working day after the holiday.
…
"Bang, bang, bang..."
Li Tang and Wu Jing were fighting each other with a white wax pole. Li Tang was using the Thirteen Tai Chi Spears, while Wu Jing was using his skills as he saw them.
"accelerate!"
Following Wu Jing's shout, Li Tang sped up his movements and attacked the opponent faster than the last.
"Bang! Bang!"
As Li Tang made a move with too much force, Wu Jing was knocked away and unable to recover in time. The door opened wide, and the white wax rod in Wu Jing's hand stabbed his chest and stopped ten centimeters away from his body.
"Tsk, you're not good at this. You're not improving as fast as last time!" Wu Jing put away his gun and said with a tut, looking like he didn't deserve a beating.
It stands to reason that Li Tang's progress should be very fast. He only learned the Thirteen Tai Chi Spears for about half a year and was already able to use them skillfully. But Wu Jing was still stuck in the impression of Li Tang's abnormal progress last time, and felt that his progress was slower this time.
"Filming has been stopped for more than a month, and I don't dare to miss a day during the rest of the time."
Li Tang was still reviewing his mistake just now. In the final analysis, he was still unskilled and had not reached the point where he could do whatever he wanted. He was so anxious when he thrust out the spear just now that he couldn't hold back his strength.
"Then you still have to practice more. I practiced for three years before I was able to become a master."
Wu Jing sounded like someone who had come before him. He looked at Li Tang's replaying movements and couldn't help but curled his lips, expressing his disdain for the clumsy behavior of a beginner.
He walked to the side, walked on the railing of the verandah, and said to Li Tang, who was still gesticulating: "Hey, speaking of your last filming, how was your cooperation with Senior Brother Zhao?"
He and Zhao Wenzhuo were admitted to Beijing Sports University one after the other, and they can be considered as brothers in the same school. It should be said that Zhao Wenzuo debuted earlier than him and had a higher starting point than him. He could really replace Li Lien Lien and become a new generation of kung fu superstar. Unfortunately, he was unlucky. He encountered the decline of Hong Kong movies and had to switch to making TV series.
As for Wu Jing himself, although he is also filming a TV series and his resources are not even as good as Zhao Wenzhuo's, he is still relatively satisfied at the moment, at least much better than someone like Li Tang who is still struggling in the mainland. His current goal is to take more roles and earn more money. Just as his ex-girlfriend said when she broke up with him, he will earn enough 5 million in three years to buy a house in Hong Kong.
During the Asian Financial Crisis in 1997, housing prices in Hong Kong suddenly dropped by 70%, and they have not yet recovered. He feels that now is the best time to buy a house, but unfortunately he does not have enough money.
"fine."
Hearing Wu Jing take the initiative to mention Zhao Wenzhuo, Li Tang was a little curious and said: "Hey, have you two fought before? Who is better?"
"Never fought."
Wu Jing shook his head, thought for a while and said: "It should be about the same, but it is said that his Tongbei Fist is very powerful."
In fact, although he and Zhao Wenzhuo were considered brothers in the same school, they were just acquaintances and had only been in the same school for a short time. In addition, the two of them went to Hong Kong to develop their careers one after another. Since they were in a competitive relationship and belonged to different martial arts sects, they naturally had less contact.
For example, Zhao Wenzuo was first discovered by Yuan Kui and was closely related to the "Seven Little Fortunes"; while Wu Jing followed Yuan Baye and belonged to different martial arts performance sects.
The master of "Seven Little Blessings", Yu Zhanyuan, is a famous martial arts student in Peking Opera. Kung Fu itself is mostly performed. The so-called "Seven Little Blessings" is actually a Peking opera that mainly focuses on fighting. It later evolved into the general name of Yu Zhanyuan's apprentices. To put it bluntly, their group of people mainly focused on performing arts from the beginning.
Yuan Baye's father, Yuan Xiaotian, was a famous martial arts master in the capital at that time, and he was proficient in northern martial arts. After the Japanese invaded in 1937, his family went to Hong Kong. Forced by life, he first worked as a martial arts instructor for the Northern School of Cantonese Opera, then entered the film industry as a martial arts stuntman, and later became a martial arts instructor.
It should be said that Mr. Yuan is the first martial arts director in the history of Chinese films, and Yuan Jiaban is also the originator of martial arts in Hong Kong films.
Later, with the rise of the "Seven Little Blessings", although the two groups often cooperated at first, the competitive relationship began to become prominent in the later stages.
Wu Jing didn't have much contact with this senior brother Zhao, so he asked casually, then raised his chin towards the guest room in the west wing and said with a smile: "What's going on between you and Xiao Fan? Tell me the truth!"
He thought he had stayed in this guest room for a few days. He originally thought he would have a place to stay in the capital, but when he returned from filming a movie, this place was taken over by Fan Xiaopang.
"Nothing happened, I just came here to stay."
Li Tang also put away the white wax pole at this time and came over to wipe his sweat with a towel.
"Borrowing?"
Wu Jing's face was full of disbelief: "Tch, don't think that I don't know. You kid has had bad intentions towards me for a long time. I'm afraid it's just a cover to stay here. Didn't you two get under the covers a long time ago?"
Li Tang was too lazy to pay attention to him, turned around and walked to the main room. However, he was quite depressed when talking about this. Fan Xiaopang lived here, and people who knew about it thought they had an affair, but who knew that he actually didn't even touch each other's hair.
By the time he came out of the shower, Wu Jing was already busy in the kitchen. Li Tang really knows nothing about cooking, but Wu Jing is better than him. This guy can finally cook a few dishes while living alone in Hong Kong.
When Li Tang came in, he was cutting the pork elbows in sauce and stuffing them into his mouth.
"Your sauce elbow is really good. I will definitely go to your place to try it next time I have a chance."
"Okay, hey, I'll cut up the chicken in the refrigerator later. It took a while, so I don't know if it's damaged or not."
This time Li Tang came in a hurry, and Lao Li was worried that his son would not have enough food in the capital. I specially brought a lot of food, including chicken, duck, fish and meat. I also heard that my son was giving gifts here, so I specially brought ten boxes of Maotai.
As for how it was brought here, I have to say that the supply and marketing cooperative is really a magical unit. In the era of planned economy, supply and marketing cooperatives were really all-encompassing, including catering service companies specializing in restaurants and snack bars, non-staple food companies, coal companies, material centers, department stores, and Wujiao chemical companies, including the medicinal materials companies and sugar companies mentioned earlier. Tobacco and alcohol company, and also has its own fleet.
Now the fleet has been transformed into a transportation company. With the development of the domestic economy, the transportation company's business is also booming. The current owner of the transportation company is a buddy who used to sell foreign cigarettes with Lao Li. He has a monthly business of transporting goods to the capital. It was also convenient for Lao Li to carry things. When he got to the field, Li Tang could just call a taxi and pick them up.
Now the basement dug in the yard is finally put to use, just for storing wine.
In addition to paying New Year's greetings to Zhang Dabeard, Li Tang also went to Director Teng Wenji in the name of Director Xiao Teng's friend. In addition, taking the opportunity to pay New Year's greetings to Mr. Lu, Li Tang followed him to visit the old director of Beijing Film Studio. , Han Sanping, currently the vice president of production of China Film.
As for Director Zhang Yimou, no one has introduced him yet, but I heard that Director Zhang does not live in the capital or his hometown of Xi'an, but has made his home in Wuxi.
Of course, Wu Jing had to make a trip to his home, so he knew he was in the capital. Now that he was single and had nothing to do, Wu Jing came here almost every day.
After all, he is a knife player. Wu Jing's knife skills are good, and the thick-bone-free pork elbow can be cut evenly. He took another chicken out of the refrigerator and smelled it.
"It's not bad, it's edible."
After saying that, just "click, click, click", three clicks, five divided by two, chop the chicken and put it on the plate.
First update, second update at noon!
