Chapter 335: Marriage Plans and Zhou Qing's New Film Plans, Director Zhou Wants to Sweep the Os
The Spring Festival in 12 comes earlier than in previous years.
You don't have to wait until mid-to-late February, or even until February.
New Year’s Eve is only on January 1nd, which means there are only 22 days left.
Then Zhou Qing’s next arrangements became clear.
After finishing up some work arrangements at Zhou Qing Pictures and going to the set of "Painted Skin 2" to see Liu Yifei, it's time to go home.
"Director Chen."
After making up his mind, Zhou Qing called Director Chen to his office for some communication and arrangements.
Except for some things that I had to handle personally, I basically left everything else to Director Chen.
Who says Director Chen is the steward of Zhou Qing Pictures?
Zhou Qing spends so much money every year to invite Director Chen, isn't he just here to get things done?
After that, Zhou Qing didn't hesitate any more and went to visit the crew of "Painted Skin 2" openly.
Anyway, now that his relationship with Liu Yifei has been made public, there is naturally no need to hide it anymore.
"Director Zhou."
Director Wu Ershan knew that Zhou Qing was coming, so he put down his work and came to greet him.
There is no way, after all, Zhou Qing is the investor and screenwriter of "Painted Skin 2", and he is the well-deserved boss of the crew.
Although Wu Ershan is the director of "Painted Skin 2", he is nothing in front of Zhou Qing.
As long as Zhou Qing is unhappy, he can fire Wu Ershan at any time.
Under such circumstances, how could Wuershan dare to be negligent in the slightest?
"You just focus on your work as Director Wu Ershan, don't worry about me, I'm just walking around and taking a look."
After Zhou Qing briefly exchanged greetings with Wu Ershan, he waved to him.
Wu Ershan pondered for a moment, then said hello to Zhou Qing and continued to work.
"Although Xiao Wei longs for love, her feelings are actually very complicated right now."
"On the one hand, she really longs for love, but on the other hand, she doesn't trust humans. She has been hurt before."
"She believes that humans can love each other, but she doesn't believe that humans can love monsters, so she longs to become a human."
"Zhou Xun, you need to show the layers of this complex emotion later. Don't make it too flat and one-dimensional."
"Yifei, you are the exact opposite of Zhou Xun. The Princess Jing you play is the one who escaped from marriage. She doesn't believe in love at all."
In front of Zhou Qing, Wu Ershan began to tell a scene to Zhou Xun and Liu Yifei on the spot.
Zhou Qing didn't say much, but he nodded secretly in his heart.
Although Wu Ershan's personal resume is average and he only has two insignificant works, his professional qualities as a director are up to standard.
When it comes to training actors, Wu Ershan is quite good at it.
"Attention all units."
"Clear the field."
"start!"
Next, Wu Ershan filmed a few more shots seriously, and there were no problems at all.
Zhou Qing personally inspected the other party's level and was completely relieved.
He is now more and more confident. With Wu Ershan's level and his own optimized script, "Painted Skin 2" will definitely be a masterpiece.
"How did I perform?"
After finally finishing the filming and getting some free time, Liu Yifei immediately rushed over to meet Zhou Qing, looking at him with her head held high.
The words "Praise me quickly" are just a few steps away from being written on his face.
"is acceptable."
Zhou Qing nodded seriously.
"Just okay?"
Liu Yifei was immediately dissatisfied and stretched out her voice.
"It's OK. It's very OK. I just watched for a while. Except for Brother Xun and Senior Brother Hu Jun, no one else in the crew acted as well as you."
Zhou Qing gave Liu Yifei a slightly more detailed explanation.
This is definitely not to flatter Liu Yifei, but an objective evaluation.
After all, the girl has filmed 5 movies under Zhou Qing, and Zhou Qing has done his best to train and cultivate her in every movie.
And what level of director is Zhou Qing?
The number one director at the highest level!
His level of training actors is second to none in the entire circle and no one can match him.
So Liu Yifei's acting skills have indeed improved greatly compared to the original time and space.
Although he is not as good as real talents like Zhou Xun and Hu Jun, he is definitely considered to have acting skills on the set.
"Really? You really think so?"
When the girl heard Zhou Qing say this, she immediately became happy again.
"Then there is still a holiday?"
Zhou Qing raised his eyebrows seriously.
"It's just that the director has changed to Wu Ershan. Otherwise, if I were the director, your performance would be three times better."
Zhou Qing then added another sentence, his words still full of strong confidence.
Wu Ershan’s ability in training actors is decent, but how can he be compared with Zhou Qing, a top-level director?
"I thought you were praising me, but it turns out you were praising yourself in a roundabout way."
Liu Yifei couldn't help but roll her eyes at Zhou Qing and complain wildly.
"Oh, oh, oh, you and I are so affectionate, and now that it's public, we can become unbridled."
Zhou Xun appeared out of nowhere and started teasing Zhou Qing and Liu Yifei.
"Brother Xun, has anyone ever told you that light bulbs are very annoying?"
Zhou Qing and Zhou Xun had a good relationship and made a joke with each other.
"Then showing off your love in public won't be annoying? Especially in front of single people like us!"
Zhou Xun also had a convincing argument.
This person has a very rich love history and I don’t know how many boyfriends she has had.
But at this time of year, I'm really single, there's nothing wrong with that.
"What do you mean by 'you guys'? You are a single guy, but Senior Brother Hu Jun is not!"
Zhou Qing looked at Hu Jun who came over to say hello and smiled.
"Director Zhou is right. Don't involve me in this matter. I'm already married."
Hu Jun also joined in very familiarly.
Everyone was chatting and laughing together, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
"Director Zhou Qing visited Liu Yifei on the set of Painted Skin 2, and a photo of him, Liu Yifei, Zhou Xun and Hu Jun was leaked."
"Director Zhou Qing made a surprise appearance on the set of Painted Skin 2, chatting and laughing with Liu Yifei, showing their sweetness."
With Zhou Qing's current level, some of his itineraries could not be concealed at all, not to mention that Zhou Qing had no intention of hiding it.
Related reports spread immediately, contributing a wave of popularity and traffic to "Painted Skin 2".
"Xiao Liu."
Zhou Qing ignored him and called his assistant over after returning to Zhou Qing Pictures.
He asked the other party to book a flight back home and embarked on his journey back home that day.
As for Liu Yifei?
Because he was filming "Painted Skin 2", he naturally did not go with Zhou Qing, so Zhou Qing was caught by his parents and scolded again.
The only consolation is that Zhou Qing and Liu Yifei are now engaged, and my parents feel a little more at ease.
But it’s just some.
The two elders will always be worried if they don't see their son walk into the marriage hall.
In fact, my parents and Zhou Qing had also discussed the specific details of the marriage.
Zhou Qing and Liu Yifei also communicated with each other, and the same was true for Liu Xiaoli.
After all, we have come to the stage of engagement, and many things should indeed be put on the agenda for discussion.
On this point, my parents and Liu Xiaoli's opinions were surprisingly consistent, and they all hoped that Zhou Qing and Liu Yifei would get married soon.
Needless to say, my parents are both traditional parents and of course they hope their son can get married and start a family as soon as possible.
Where is Liu Xiaoli?
As someone who works in the entertainment industry, she knows how complicated this circle is and how many temptations there are.
Engagement is not safe enough for Liu Xiaoli.
After all, there are so many directors who are married but are still hooked up with other girls. So what does your engagement really matter?
On the point of letting Zhou Qing and Liu Yifei get married as soon as possible, the parents of both sides actually agreed to it.
The only disagreement was that Liu Xiaoli hoped Zhou Qing and Liu Yifei would keep their marriage secret. The main consideration was naturally Liu Yifei's career.
To be honest, Liu Xiaoli's thoughts are actually understandable.
Looking at all the female celebrities in the entertainment industry, one by one, how many of them get married in their twenties?
What about mom and dad?
Of course, we hope to have a grand and spectacular celebration.
This is a marriage that only happens once in a lifetime!
So what about Zhou Qing and Liu Yifei?
Zhou Qing actually doesn’t care. It all depends on what Liu Yifei thinks.
As long as the girl changes her nationality back to Chinese before officially getting married, it doesn’t matter whether it is made public or not.
However, precisely because of the need to change nationality, the two parties have not yet determined the specific date of the wedding.
Because no one knows how long it will take.
But it will definitely take quite a long time.
Especially for wealthy people like Liu Yifei, the tax audit alone may take several months.
In short, it is not uncommon to complete all the processes for more than half a year.
In addition, the process of becoming a Chinese citizen is rather complicated, so both of them were prepared to fight a long battle of more than a year.
Anyway, they are both still young, so there is no need to be so anxious.
"Qingzi, where is your future wife? Didn't she come back with you?"
"Cousin, why don't you see your future sister-in-law?"
"Old Zhou, where is your daughter-in-law? Why can't I see her?"
This time when I went home for the New Year, my home was much more lively than in previous years.
Neighbors and fellow villagers, when they saw Zhou Qing, they would ask Liu Yifei questions non-stop.
There is no way. It doesn’t matter if Zhou Qing and Liu Yifei make their relationship public, but it really made Liu Yifei a super celebrity in her hometown.
Now the whole village, including several surrounding villages, knew that the son of the Zhou family had found a girlfriend who was a big star.
That's not rare.
After all, most people have never seen a top living celebrity.
This created an awkward situation when Zhou Qing returned to his hometown, as many people wanted to see Liu Yifei in person.
Zhou Qing couldn't help but feel a little resentful.
Fortunately, I didn’t bring Liu Yifei back this time, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with this situation.
But apart from this, Zhou Qing generally lived a comfortable life in his hometown.
Originally, January 1th is a legal working day, but who says Zhou Qing is the boss?
Isn't it up to you to decide when to go to work?
He simply stayed at home for the entire month of January.
"Zhou Qing Pictures' "Blade of the Assassin" closed with a box office of 2.46 million yuan, bringing a new lease of life to martial arts movies."
"2.46 million! Blade of the Assassin becomes the second highest-grossing martial arts film of the year."
"The high reputation of "Blade of the Assassin" brought high box office, and it ended perfectly with 2.46 million yuan."
Lu Yang's "The Blade of the Assassin" had just completed its theatrical release period, and the total box office figures were immediately released.
2.46 million.
For most people in the industry, this box office is absolutely impressive.
Even in this day and age, not just any movie can gross over 2 million.
It is also a truly well-deserved blockbuster movie.
Especially considering that "The Blade of the Assassin" is also a martial arts film.
So everyone once again took a new look at Zhou Qing Pictures.
Director Zhou is really awesome. Every movie he makes is a hit, even his martial arts films are no exception.
Zhou Qing himself was also quite satisfied with this.
Although "Knife of the Assassin" was not as popular as some other recent movies, this data is enough to be considered a success.
When we take stock of domestic martial arts films in the future, "The Blade of the Assassin" will definitely have a place.
"You have to pay more."
Just like in the original time and space, Zhou Yiwei became instantly famous with this short line.
It can be considered a pleasant surprise.
"Dad, Mom, I'm leaving!"
Zhou Qing did not stay in his hometown for long in February.
After saying hello to my parents, I went straight back to the capital.
As in previous years, we still go to pay New Year’s greetings before officially starting work.
After Liu Xiaoli and Tian Zhuangzhuang had finished their visits, Zhou Qing went to Han Sanping's place.
"Boss Han, Happy New Year."
"Happy New Year, Happy New Year."
Han Sanping entertained Zhou Qing with great enthusiasm.
It was as if Zhou Qing was his own son or nephew, and he took Zhou Qing's hand and asked about his well-being.
"Happy New Year, Brother Zhou Qing!"
Next to Han Sanping, a capable girl with short hair, who was about the same age as Zhou Qing, also greeted Zhou Qing politely and enthusiastically.
This woman was none other than Han Sanping's beloved daughter, Han Jianu.
Han Jianu was admitted to the graduate school of directing at Beijing Film Academy in 10, and is a genuine student of Beijing Film Academy.
There is nothing wrong with calling Zhou Qing "senior brother".
However, it is worth mentioning that although Han Jianuo is studying in the directing department, she is more interested in screenwriting.
He has written and produced many films in his career, but has never directed one.
The famous "Dying to Survive" was co-written by Han Jianv and Wen Muye.
"Jia Nu, Beijing Film Academy has its winter break, right? Come visit me when you have time."
Zhou Qing had come to Han Sanping's house to pay New Year's greetings and met Han Jianu many times before. The two were familiar with each other and greeted each other very familiarly.
Han Sanping felt very relieved when he saw his daughter chatting and laughing with Zhou Qing.
Although Han Sanping is now the chairman of China Film Group and holds a high position of power, he will have to retire one day.
It is impossible for him to be the big tree behind Han Jianu all his life, and it is impossible for him to protect Han Jianu from wind and rain forever.
Han Jianuo also needs to have her own circle of contacts.
Zhou Qing is the person in Han Sanping's circle of contacts that he values very much.
This is also the reason why every time Zhou Qing came to pay New Year's greetings, he specifically asked Han Jianu to stay at home.
"Jia Nu, bring the wine glasses over. Director Zhou and I will have a couple of drinks."
They chatted for a while, and when the mood was right, Han Sanping waved his hand and gave his daughter an instruction.
Zhou Qing did not refuse and accompanied Han Sanping for a drink.
During this period, Han Sanping also talked with Zhou Qing again about making a co-production film.
The Third Master is now full of ambition and is determined to make another big move.
Things like breaking records in Chinese film history can no longer satisfy Han Sanping's appetite.
Han Sanping's mind is full of thoughts on making his presence felt in the global market.
"Boss Han, to be honest, I do have plans to make a co-production this year, and I've already thought about what kind of film it will be."
Zhou Qing put down the wine glass in his hand and smiled gently at Han Sanping.
"Really? That's great."
Han Sanping's interest was instantly piqued, and he couldn't wait to ask Zhou Qing, "Tell me quickly, what movie is it?"
Han Jianu, who was standing next to her, also widened her eyes and stared at Zhou Qing intently.
She also wanted to know the answer.
"A blockbuster, a real blockbuster."
Zhou Qing grinned, which whetted Han Sanping's appetite even more.
This is Zhou Qing’s first co-production, so naturally he wants to make a big splash to make a splash.
What level of Dafa is it?
Of course, it’s the kind that’s enough to shock the entire entertainment industry.
To be more specific, not only did it explode at the global box office, it also swept the Oscars.
All in all, it's a great movie that can make you a god.
For Zhou Qing, a reborn person with a cheat, this shouldn't be a high requirement. (End of this chapter)
