Fooling Huayu for Thirty Years

Chapter 67 Actors should be like Cheng Dieyi, and screenwriters should learn from Shisanlang

"Ma Xun, I'm still a little curious about you."

"What are you curious about?"

"That's it... Don't you want to know about me and Liu Bo... That's it..."

"Okay, I like gossip too, so go ahead and tell me what you want to say."

"You're so annoying..."

"If you don't want to say it, then just say it."

Once again, it was confirmed that the plump beauty was indeed lethal.

If Ma Xun didn't have a valuable possession, he would have probably failed.

Fortunately, Xu Qing was shaking so much in the end that he is still trembling slightly.

But, it seems that she has a lot to say and can't hold it back any longer.

"You start."

"Well... well, are you really at the stage of discussing marriage?"

"Ma Xun, no, how come you are so accurate in gossiping?"

"Oh, I just guessed."

"Well, we are indeed here..."

There are too many things in people's hearts, and they really need to be poured out.

Xu Qing was just like that, she really couldn't hold it in anymore, she really wanted to find someone to talk to.

Ma Xun just listened attentively.

He didn't interrupt her, just let her pour it all out.

Although, Ma Xun understood it completely from the beginning.

There were many unclear points in the matter between Xu Qing and Liu Bo before, but now they are all clear.

If I hadn't appeared, Xu Qing and Liu Bo would have gotten married this year.

That’s right, it was 1997, which is earlier than the various versions uploaded on the Internet later, because it means they knew each other earlier.

And this marriage...it seems that Liu Bo also invested a lot of money.

He actually divorced his original wife.

What Xu Qing said didn't mean much to Ma Xun, as he had basically guessed it.

So, Ma Xun couldn't help but think of other melons.

Many people certainly don’t believe it.

Just like Xu Qing, a woman who seems to have a high status and a wealthy family.

It’s actually very easy to chase.

Don't doubt it, there are many similar examples.

For example, what Ma Xun is thinking of now is the marriage between Wang Banbi and Zhang Ziyi.

Many netizens should still remember how the two got together. They officially announced their relationship during the concert, and then an engagement ring was delivered by a drone.

But in fact, this drone delivering wedding rings... is really a big news that ordinary people would not think of.

Simply put, a fight broke out at that time.

Wang Banbi and Zhang Ziyi had a big fight.

In fact, many people in the entertainment industry knew about this gossip, because many people were present at the time, such as Hot Eagle.

At first it wasn’t a proposal, it was actually the actress’ birthday.

The reason for the action was very simple. The eldest brother of the Zhang family thought: Who do you think you are, Wang Banbi, how dare you chase my sister!
Yes, this brother is actually right.

In fact, many netizens did not understand one thing, which is Wang Banbi’s true situation later.

He's in trouble!
It's still that kind of deadly cold.

Many netizens may think that this is not right.

Every time there is a melon, it is related to Wang Banbi.

In fact, this matter is very simple, just look at it from the opposite perspective.

The truth is, whenever there is some news, Wang Banbi's team will try to get in on it.

There is only one reason for doing this.

So cool.

Ma Xun was honest and said that he also liked some of Wang Banbi's songs, which was not shameful.

But later on, Wang Banbi's career was really over, and there was no possibility of him becoming popular again.

His voice was always cracked when he sang, and because of this problem, he hated Yuetian.

Because of the lip-syncing scandal, Mou Yuetian seemed to be fine, but it blocked Wang Banbi's path.

He couldn't sing.

So, Brother Zhang, it would be strange if you weren't angry.

Who do you think you are, Wang Banbi!
And he’s still so damn old!
Why are you wasting time? Let’s fight!
The fight at that time was simply indescribable. A lot of people from the circle really went there. Zhang Ziyi has had real connections over the years.

However, in the end, the two got their marriage certificate and even had a baby.

They are all beaten into shape.

Almost everyone in the circle knows about it.

But in the end, Wang Banbi succeeded.

Let’s get back to the story of Xu Qing and Liu Bo.

Ma Xun, to be honest, isn't the current Liu Bo a hundred times better than the later Wang Banbi?

Liu Bo has set up a big scam, but this scam has not been exposed yet.

In the eyes of outsiders, Liu Bo was smart since he was young. He attended a class for geniuses and was later appreciated by a master of Chinese studies and became his closed disciple. He then presided over a key project and compiled a set of rare books that were handed down from generation to generation.

He is talented, rich, and not much older.

Faced with such a suitor, Xu Qing still persists in pestering him.

How could she not be tempted?
Even if they made it public, many people would understand.

It's a good match.

But now... Ma Xun appeared.

As Xu Qing spoke, tears started to come to her eyes.

This is also normal.

Ma Xun interrupted and asked: "Then do you have..."

Pointed at him and her.

Xu Qing understood immediately and stopped crying, "How can you be such a bad person!"

"Is there really such a thing?" Ma Xun actually already had the answer in his mind.

"Oh, no..." Xu Qing replied, his face returning to normal, "He, he still respects me very much."

It was very strange, Ma Xun's question was obviously a bit excessive.

But she was not feeling as depressed as she had just been when she talked about that relationship.

Ma Xun smiled and said, "So I won."

The reason for this win is... just do it?

Xu Qing felt embarrassed, "Stop talking!"

Ma Xun thought she was quite funny like this.

For some reason I was reminded of the line in "Lust, Caution".

That's it.

However, there are still some things to talk about next.

"You should be heading south soon."

"Correct."

"That Mountain, That Man, That Dog." "Add more security personnel."

"Ah? Why?"

"You are really an overprotected silly girl. There are a lot of car bandits and road bullies nowadays."

"No way? It would be so unlucky."

"That's not bad luck at all, okay? In the eyes of robbers, all beings are equal."

The conversation between Ma Xun and Xu Qing revealed some things.

But fortunately, Xu Qing is very obedient now.

Ma Xun didn't delve into it further.

"Do you believe it?"

"What do you believe in?"

"After this play is finished, maybe your role won't be that important, but it will be of great benefit to you."

"You mean, this play will be a great success?"

“I have great faith.”

Xu Qing didn't say anything, thinking that it was difficult for her to say whether she believed it or not.

They have nothing to do with each other.

But after this drama, will there be any changes in them?
Xu Qing didn’t know, and Ma Xun didn’t say much.

So be it.

……

Liu Bo's method is actually not very useful.

Ma Xun remembered the movie "The Thirteenth Son of the South China Sea" very clearly. It was broadcast on channels such as CCTV-6.

Well, that's enough to show that there's actually nothing wrong with this play.

However, Ma Xun still accepted the 80 yuan from Fatty Gao.

That's right, this guy was bargaining.

Ma Xun agreed, which gave him the image of being easy to talk to.

However, the reason why Fatty Gao gave this money.

Or because he is smart.

The previous box office performance of "The Thirteenth Son of the South China Sea" was quite good.

Great potential!

Ma Xun didn't say anything, he just contacted a leader who had a say.

When they met, of course, they discussed this matter normally.

Fatty Gao also brought the main creative staff of the crew, and everyone expressed their attitudes.

Each one is very straightforward.

We are all very patriotic!

The Drunken Swordsman is originally a drama actor and has nothing to do with those young and dangerous guys.

As a result, "The Thirteenth Son of the South China Sea" was quickly unblocked.

Cinemas in Guangdong and Guangxi were very happy to hear the news.

I quickly started buying more copies.

Come on more.

In contrast, there is "The Soong Dynasty".

It really makes people feel helpless.

It failed in Hong Kong.

Not to mention in mainland China.

After watching the film, our mainland audiences almost all had the same idea.

what's the situation?
Is the director repeating to me the knowledge from the history books?

Are you worried that I won’t pass the exam?
This is really something that cannot help but make people complain.

But in fact……

The situation in Hong Kong is that what they learn is different from what we learn in mainland China.

In fact, even if we exaggerate a little bit.

Our education system in China is excellent.

Ma Xun is from later generations.

At that time, what he saw made the foreigners in the United States reflect on it.

Education in Europe and the United States can be said to have collapsed.

I can't learn anything, but other things, like flying leaves, biubiu, or having sex anywhere... these are actually tolerable.

The most unbearable thing is that she is a big boy before going to school, but becomes a big girl after school.

This is about having children!

Not to mention ordinary people, even the richest people can't stand it.

Let’s not talk about that for now.

In our mainland, most people are familiar with the history filmed in "The Soong Dynasty".

I probably understand it.

Would you still spend money to buy a ticket to watch it?
A history lesson in a movie theater?
Well, this movie is not without its good points.

In fact, some of the scenes in which Jiang Wen plays the role of Song's father are quite good.

These scenes were edited out for publicity purposes.

What a good liar!

He is more capable of deceiving people than me, Ma Xun.

Just use these few paragraphs to trick the audience into going to the cinema to learn history.

Good for you!

It looks like this movie’s box office won’t be able to go any higher.

In this situation, Sister Hong started to operate "Shisanlang" and moved it north.

Of course, Sister Hong has not forgotten. After completing this task, she will also follow the crew of "That Mountain" to the south.

But before leaving, Sister Qing asked Ma Xun a question.

"You seem to think highly of this "Nanhai Shisanlang"."

Ma Xun’s answer was.

“Because this play shows the story of a screenwriter.”

That's it?

That’s all Ma Xun said, but he left some other things unsaid.

Later, many people put "Farewell My Concubine" and "The Thirteenth Son of the South China Sea" together.

To be honest, the artistic level of "Farewell My Concubine" is obviously higher.

How tall is it?
To a level that the director of this film will never be able to reach.

But it is also possible to put them together.

Because, if the actor can be like Cheng Dieyi, and the screenwriter can be like Shisanlang.

Even if you tie a dog to be the director, this movie will definitely not be bad.

Ma Xun hopes that the play "The Thirteenth Son of the South China Sea" can inspire some people and some screenwriters.

If it can have some effect.

This can be considered as a small contribution made by Ma Xun to our domestic entertainment.
