Rebirth 90: I turned my sister into a top student

Chapter 367 Champion of the Year
"I'm going back to Baodao to visit the old man this time, and I'll ask him too! He is a warm-hearted man who likes to help the younger generation. All my previous films cannot do without the support of the old man."

It turned out that after Li An graduated from New York University in a beautiful country, he went home and became a house husband.

And it took 6 years to do it.

While cooking and washing, he wrote two scripts, "Pushing Hands" and "The Wedding Banquet", and won two script awards in Taiwan in one fell swoop.

At that time, Li An was so poor that he had no money to buy a plane ticket to fly back to Baodao to receive the award. It was Xu Ligong who provided him with an economy class air ticket, and Li An was able to return to Baodao to receive the prize.

After returning, Li An, wearing worn jeans and a T-shirt, knocked on the door of Xu Ligong's office with his signature shy smile and the script of "Pushing Hands".

After Xu Ligong read the script, he decisively expressed his willingness to provide Li An with a production fee of 1200 million Taiwan dollars.

1200 million is converted into more than 200 million Huaguo coins, and we have to go to the beautiful country to shoot. It can be said that the funds are quite tight.

In order to save money, Li An not only captured his eldest son Li Han, who was still a child, but also smashed the dining table at home during the filming.

In such a hurry, Li An spent 24 days shooting "Pushing Hands" and did the post-editing himself.

Once the film was released, it was a great success, and won the 1991 Golden Horse Award jury award in one fell swoop, and Li An officially stepped into the film industry.

After that, with the support of Xu Ligong, Li An successively filmed "The Wedding Banquet", "Eating and Drinking Men and Women", until the just completed "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

It can be said that the success of Li An's directorial career is most inseparable from this great benefactor.

With the help of this old man, Qin Qi and Yan Heng would not have to worry.

"Okay, Director Li, we are waiting for your good news."

"Well, when "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is released next year, the old man should come to the capital. You have done all the preparations, and we can communicate anytime."

Director Li An is a person who cherishes talents, and he himself started as a screenwriter, so he did not hesitate to help Qin Qi's junior.

Of course, Li An's willingness to help is also related to Qin Qi and Yan Heng's successful operation of "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog".

Li An himself finds it unbelievable. Even if such a movie is handed over to him, he has no confidence that it can cause such a big sensation.

After the chat, it was time for everyone to have a wrap-up banquet.

It can be seen that Qin Shu is very popular on the set, and everyone recognizes her dedication along the way, and Li An also praised Qin Shu several times in front of everyone.

After the green banquet was over, Qin Shu followed Qin Qi back to the city.

On the second day, Qin Qi first took Qin Shu around Huaqing University, and then went to Peking Opera Academy.

When they arrived at the site of Peking Opera, Liu Ye even went out to receive them without hesitation.

A few people went to the alley to eat roast duck, and Liu Ye naturally shared gossip about the classmates in the class.

It turns out that the 96 students of Peking Opera at that time were all future film kings and queens, but their school days were quite painful. Several people wanted to drop out of school. They didn't practice their early skills. The school was so angry that they suspended classes. The freshman year was over Sophomore still stopped, it is super difficult to bring.

Qin Qi listened with great interest.

Only then did she know that Level 96 included not only Liu Ye, Zhang Ziyi, Yuan Quan, but also Qin Hailu, Qin Hao, Chen Minghao and so on.

"It's okay, although everyone doesn't have much confidence now, but soon you will all become half of Huaguo's film and television industry." Qin Qi smiled.

"Then thank you for your good words! I'll talk to Lao Qin and Lao Chen when I go back."

Qin Qi wanted to say that it might be too late for these two to become famous, but she still kept her mouth shut.

As a person with past life experience, the most important principle is not to tell others the truth easily...

When Qin Shu went to the bathroom, Liu Ye suddenly lowered his voice to whisper to Yan Heng and Qin Qi.

"By the way, has there been a popular novel called "Story of the Capital" in your university recently? It's about two men falling in love." Liu Ye laughed.

"Of course it's popular, but what everyone reads is not a book, but a printed version!"

At that time, the penetration rate of computers was not high, and not many people had computers in university dormitories, so everyone could only read printed online novels.

"Hehe, this novel is really amazing."

If "First Intimate Contact" in 1998 is the source of online novels, then the second one that caused a sensation is this "Story of the Capital".

Qin Qi really wanted to tell Liu Ye that soon he would see this novel being made into a movie called "Lan Yu", and he was also one of the protagonists in the movie, but she still shut up in time.

She was afraid of scaring the big boy in front of her!

On the second day, Qin Qi sent his sister to the train back to Qi City.

Unexpectedly, at the train station, I ran into an aunt who recognized Qin Shu and pulled Qin Shu to sign for her.

It turned out that "The Mountain, That Man, That Dog" had started to hit theaters these days, so Qin Shu was recognized.

Judging by the situation, when "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is released, Qin Shu probably will be famous all over the country.

Taking advantage of the lack of fame right now, it's better to go back to school and play cats haha!
As soon as "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog" was released in China, it was indeed completely different from the deserted treatment in the previous life.

Because, everyone wants to see what this film that has earned a lot of money in Sakura Country looks like.

In particular, Director Zhang's "My Father and Mother" has not been withdrawn from theaters, so discussions about these two films are also raging.

Director Huo is directly regarded as the successor of the fifth generation of directors.

Several of their main creators are doing interviews and holding meetings, but they don't have time to relax.

However, Yan Heng and Qin Qi were not too tired. Both of them refused the request of interviews and premiere appearances, and they could only concentrate on attending classes at school.

The end of the year is approaching in a blink of an eye, and the media from all walks of life are imagining which movie will be the box office champion of this year.

In December, Director Feng launched the last part of his New Year's film trilogy "Endless", intending to continue the glory again.

Relying on the prestige of "Party A and Party B" and "See You or Be Square" in the past two years, "Endless" has a strong momentum as soon as it is released, and it has the momentum to hit the annual championship.

In the end, although it was not as good as the 4000 million box office of "See You or Be Square" the previous year, it also achieved a box office of 3500 million, which is considered to be the best.

As for Director Zhang's "No One Less" in the first half of the year, it had a box office of 3000 million. "My Father and Mother" is a bit regrettable, it only got 800 million at the box office, ranking 11th in the annual box office list.

The biggest dark horse is of course "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog", and the final box office directly rushed to 3800 million, pushing "Endless" to No.2.

In this way, and the box office of Sakura Country also passed the 4000 million mark, "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog" became a huge hit for a while.
