Chapter 1425 1428 [Five Golden Flowers]

  Afterwards, Xiang Nan drove Zhang Yimou to Zhongxi directly.

   On the road, although Zhang Yimou didn't say anything, his eyes were full of envy for Xiang Nan's car.

  No matter how world-class photographer he is, he only gets salary and bonus, not a rich man. In comparison, Xiang Nan's car costs millions, which is higher than his cost of filming this movie.

  Driving to the entrance of the Chinese Opera, Xiang Nan was stopped.

   After asking about his identity, the guards were startled.

   "Professor Cheng, please forgive me, it's because we don't know Taishan with our eyes." He apologized quickly, and then even the vice principal came to greet him on a bicycle when he received the call.

   "Professor Cheng, welcome, welcome." Vice President Shen Mingjun shook hands enthusiastically.

   "Principal Shen is too polite." Xiang Nan laughed, "This is Comrade Zhang Yimou from Chang'an Film Studio. I believe you should know him."

   "Yes, hello Comrade Zhang." Principal Shen nodded.

  Zhang Yimou not only won the photography award, but also won the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actor the year before, and the Tokyo Film Festival for Best Actor. Principal Shen is also considered half of the entertainment industry, so how could he not know.

   "Hello, Principal Shen, if you're sorry to interrupt, I have a play and I want to find an actor at school." Zhang Yimou smiled.

   "Okay, welcome." Shen Mingjun smiled.

  Zhang Yimou has won the Best Cinematography Award and the Best Actor at the Tokyo International Film Festival, and he can be regarded as a figure in the film industry.

   And Xiang Nan is even more amazing, the number one person in the literary world today, who has written novels and scripts without fail. This year's hits "Triumph in the Midnight" and "A Dream of Red Mansions" were both written by him, and they became a huge hit, fully demonstrating his strength.

   Therefore, he has great confidence in this movie and thinks it must be a good project. And it is a good thing for their students to be able to act in this play.

  …

   "Is there a specific candidate?" Shen Mingjun then asked.

   "I heard that you have five golden flowers in Chinese opera, and one named Gong Li is even more outstanding." Xiang Nan laughed.

"Okay, this student is really good." Shen Mingjun nodded with a smile when he heard it, "The appearance, figure, and temperament are all very outstanding. Back then, in order to let her enter the school, we specially reported to the Ministry of Culture at the Chinese Opera, and she was reduced by ten. One point admission."

  Hearing what he said, Zhang Yimou was a little surprised.

  The girl who can make a special report in Chinese opera, and the girl who is admitted by 11 points, must be so outstanding! He can't help but have expectations for Gong Li.

   Then led by Shen Mingjun, everyone came to the dance practice room together.

  The reason why he didn't go to the office was because Shen Mingjun felt that it would be more appropriate to meet each other in the dance studio. After all, in the dance practice room, everyone is dressed in dance clothes, so the body can be seen more clearly.

   Sure enough, when I came to the dance practice room, I saw a group of students practicing dance.

  They wore tight dance clothes and practiced dancing with the accompaniment of music. The figure is soft, the limbs are slender, and the figure is slim... showing vitality.

  Xiang Nan moved his index finger when he saw it.

  Zhang Yimou saw at a glance that among the middle school students, there was a female student with a plane like a silver basin, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a high nose bridge, and thick lips, who had a wild charm.

   "Principal Shen, can you call that student out?" He then pointed.

  Xiang Nan was taken aback when he saw it.

  Shen Mingjun also waved his hands and smiled, "Director Zhang, that student's name is Shi Ke, not Gong Li."

   "It's okay, you can call her out first." Zhang Yimou nodded.

  Shen Mingjun nodded, opened the door of the classroom, talked to the teacher first, and then called Shi Ke out.

  …

  The students were a little surprised when they saw this, they stopped practicing one after another, and looked out of the classroom curiously.

  Seeing Xiang Nan and Zhang Yimou standing there, the students were very excited for a while.

  Xiang Nan is a well-known writer. He has been popular for more than ten years since he became famous in the 1970s. Especially this year, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" sold well all over the world, which brought his popularity to a new level.

   All the young people present knew him. What's more, Jin Lili among them was once Xiang Nan's student. She has attended his class for a year, and now she recognizes him at a glance.

  Although Zhang Yimou became famous late, he is also the first international actor in China. And everyone wants to film, who can not know him.

   Therefore, seeing the two of them appearing at the same time, many students felt a little restless.

   "Isn't that Professor Cheng? What are he and Zhang Yimou doing here?"

   "I must be here to choose actors, I don't know if I don't have a chance?"

   "Shi Ke was called out, could it be because she has taken a fancy to her?"

   "That's great, being beautiful is an advantage. It's a pity, why didn't I die."

  The students chirped, excited, anticipating and nervous.

   "Okay, don't be distracted and continue dancing." The teacher clapped his hands and reminded.

  The students soon danced again, but their minds were long gone.

  Everyone who enters an art school has a heart that wants to be famous. No matter men or women, there are no exceptions.

   And Xiang Nan represents a shortcut to becoming famous, because the people who filmed his movies are basically popular.

  For example, Zhu Shimao and Cong Shan in "The Wrangler" two years ago, and Shi Zhaoqi and Zhu Lin in "Triumph in Midnight" this year...so who doesn't expect to be selected.

  …

  After Shi Ke was called out, he felt a little nervous and excited.

  After going out, Zhang Yimou looked at her carefully, and the more he looked at her, the more he felt that she was suitable to play the heroine in "Red Sorghum".

  Shi Ke's thick dark hair, thick eyebrows, big eyes, high nose bridge, thick lips, plump bust, upturned buttocks... all reflect her vitality.

  The heroine in "Red Sorghum" represents the motherhood of the Chinese nation. Therefore, he thought that Shi Ke was really suitable.

   "Professor Cheng, I think it's okay, what do you think?" Zhang Yimou nodded.

   "Let's call a few more people and do some shopping around." Xiang Nan suggested with a smile when he saw it.

  Shi Ke is good, but he has preconceptions about Gong Li, and he still thinks she is more suitable.

   Hearing what he said, Zhang Yimou couldn't refute, so he nodded.

  Afterwards, Xiang Nan took a glance and called out Gong Li, Wu Yujuan, and Jin Lili.

   "Professor Cheng, you're here, long time no see~" Upon seeing Xiang Nan, Jin Lili took the initiative to make friends.

   "I haven't seen you for a few years, and you're already a grown-up girl." Xiang Nan nodded with a smile, "Let me introduce to you, Director Zhang and I came here this time to choose the heroine for "Red Sorghum."

  Hearing what he said, everyone was suddenly excited.

   "Red Sorghum" is a work launched by Xiang Nan in 1981, which caused great repercussions after its release.

  Especially the part where Yu Zhanao leads Jiuer into the sorghum field, the description is so bold that many young people regard it as Liu Bei, which aroused quite a controversy at the time.

   But no matter what, this novel is really influential. If it is adapted into a movie, it will definitely become popular. So these girls are very excited.
