I really didn't want to be a school bully in the old days

Chapter 690: The 87 version of Dream of Red Mansions is broadcast

"Filming finished?"

Li Anle was quite surprised to receive the call as the Chinese New Year had just passed.

“Preliminary preparations were quite sufficient.”

The reason why the Red Mansion crew was able to finish filming two or three months ahead of schedule was actually all thanks to Li Anle. First, there was the sponsorship of equipment and other materials. Second, after the filming team arrived in various regions, companies such as Rong'an Home Appliances also provided considerable help.

Apart from other things, the vehicles were provided at least a thousand times, which reduced the time between shootings. In addition, Rongan Home Appliances provided a lot of sponsorship fees, and the crew replenished some props in a timely manner, which reduced the time wasted in this regard.

This means that the filming was finished two or three months ahead of schedule. It was only the first month of 1987, and the filming was basically completed. "We still need to shoot some more scenes, and it will be all finished probably by the beginning of next month."

“Has the broadcast time been set?”

"It was originally scheduled for May, but now, if we hurry up, it can be broadcast in March."

"There's no need to be so anxious."

The post-production still needs to be done well. Li Anle still has many regrets about the 1987 version of Dream of Red Mansions in his previous life, including many scenes such as illusions. Now he is not afraid of it because the illusions have already been filmed.

For other scenes and props, Rong'an Home Appliances has provided enough sponsorship, and there are still quite a few left over. As for the costumes, there are even more than before, over 10,000 sets. A large part of these costumes will be collected by the Lijiaopo Red Mansion Museum.

In ten or twenty years, it will become a scenic spot, and they might even charge admission.

"The director is in a hurry."

Ouyang and the others said. "You also know how much Red Mansions went through from preparation to filming."

"That's true."

The project was proposed in 1979 and formal preparations began in 1981, from casting and training to filming. It took nearly ten years in total. No wonder director Wang Hulin was anxious.

"Have CCTV and Hong Kong TV coordinated?"

In Hong Kong Island is Asia Television, where Li Anle has a portion of shares, but they don't want you to control the shares. Of course, Li Anle also has his own TV station. Last time, Li Anle went to meet Wang Hulin to discuss the Dream of the Red Chamber, and finally decided to cooperate with Rong'an Television, which is controlled by Rong'an Group.

Although Rong An TV is not as good as ATV in Hong Kong Island, the difference is not big, and they are almost on par. In Southeast Asia, Rong An TV has a greater influence than ATV. After all, Rong An TV invested in shooting several influential TV series, and Jackie Chan and other movies were licensed to Rong An TV for broadcast. In addition, Rong An TV's New Year's Eve Gala was attended by many Hong Kong and Taiwan stars and Hollywood stars, and it has been very successful in the past two years.

In this regard, no other Hong Kong TV station can compare. As for entertainment, although Li Anle does not understand it, he has seen a lot of it. It is still possible to come up with some ideas to expand the influence. Besides, Rong'an Home Appliances, Rong'an Electronics and others are developing well, and it is easier to do things with more money.

Now that the filming of Dream of the Red Chamber is complete, it is time to reward myself. Rongan Home Appliances can start filming commercials in Southeast Asia. "The translation work must also be completed as soon as possible."

"Eat."

The Capital Hotel is still the capital's premier high-end consumption venue these days. "Now that the filming is over, what are your plans?"

"Let's go back to our original unit first."

Ouyang smiled and said that everyone else had their own plans. The actress who played Wang Xifeng planned to stay in the capital. As for Lin, Xue and Miaoyu, they looked at each other. Their current situation was a bit special because of a drunken accident with Li Anle a few years ago.

Chen Xiaoxu broke up with her boyfriend. As for Li Anle, huh, she didn't want to have anything to do with this bastard. She was just staying in Li Anle's courtyard house in Xicheng District.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to stay for a few days if I go back."

Li Anle took a bite of food and said to Ouyang with a smile, "I have a feeling that after our Dream of the Red Chamber is broadcast, you will all become stars. Director Wang will definitely ask you to appear on TV, and maybe even go abroad."

"It would be nice if that were true."

After all, they are not Li Anle. Although they are full of expectations, they are still a little nervous. Who could have thought that it would become such a hit before it was aired.

Who doesn't want to be famous? Their salary will probably go up. Of course, celebrities nowadays are not quite the same as they will be in the future, but they are still much better off than ordinary people. Especially with the reform and opening up, it has gradually become fashionable to use celebrities for publicity.

After the meal, Li Anle invited everyone to get in the car. You should know that this time he invited everyone from Honglou not just for dinner, but mainly for shooting a few commercials. After three days, the filming of the commercials was completed, and Li Anle walked over with a bag in his hand.

"Everyone has worked hard."

As he spoke, he started to take out red envelopes. It wasn't much, three thousand each for the leading actors and two thousand each for the supporting actors.

"Wow."

For this group of young men and women, this is a huge sum of money. After all, when they were filming in recent years, their salary was not much higher than that of ordinary people. Some of them only made a few dozen yuan, and the most was no more than a hundred yuan.

I only earned two or three thousand yuan for shooting a few days of commercials. It's unbelievable.

"This is too much."

Ouyang took a look and was shocked.

"That's nothing. When Red Mansions is broadcast, maybe we won't be able to invite you even if we double the price."

"how could it be possible."

Not to mention Ouyang, the others didn't believe it either. They were kidding. If it doubled, that wouldn't be five thousand or six thousand. It was too scary.

Seeing that everyone didn't believe him, Li Anle didn't say anything more. He just kept it to himself. You know, in the future, if he invites a few leading actors to the booth, the company will spend thousands or tens of thousands for half a day. "Are you all going back to the dormitory now, or?"

"Let's go back to the dormitory."

In recent days, the director may have come to reshoot something. Although it has been completed, we may have to wait until next month to disband and go back.

"How about this, I'll treat everyone to dinner."

"There's a batch of good seafood coming over from the Capital Hotel. I'd like to invite everyone to try it."

"Row."

Ouyang and his friends thought that there was nothing to do when they returned home, and it was better to go to the Capital Hotel to eat seafood. After eating seafood, Li Anle arranged for someone to send the others back to the dormitory. As for Chen Xiaoxu and the other two, Li Anle still had something to talk to them about.

"Come to my place and have a cup of tea."

Li Anle didn't find Chen Xiaoxu, but found Zhang Li instead. This girl was easier to talk to than the little girl.

"Let's go to West City."

"Row."

Arriving at the courtyard house that was both familiar and yet unknown, Li Anle looked around and found it to be quite clean.

"I just came back not long ago, and there are still some places that are not cleaned up."

Zhang Li said that as for Chen Xiaoxu, she was not very happy to talk to Li Anle.

Arriving at the living room, Li Anle looked around and saw that not much had been changed, but there were a few more women's things. "Have some tea."

"Thank you."

"About the clothing factory?"

Chen Xiaoxu interrupted Li Anle before he finished speaking. "No need."

"Thank you for the garment factory business, but we really don't have time."

Zhang Li said, "As you know, we have traveled to many places for filming in the past few years. Sometimes we don't even have time to go home. We really don't have time to go to the garment factory."

"Yes."

Ji Peijie also said, "Besides, we don't understand clothing."

"Actually, it's really simple."

Li Anle looked at the three of them and probably understood their thoughts. "I know you guys are planning to be actors in the future, but being an actor is not easy."

"Look down on people."

Chen Xiaoxu snorted, seeming a little dissatisfied with Li Anle's looking down on them.

Haha, you are an actress who plays Lin Daiyu in all other roles. You have the nerve to say that. "How about this, I bought some real estate and shops in the capital. If you have any ideas, please tell me. As long as I can help..."

"No need. Actually, that happened a long time ago. It's really not your fault."

Zhang Li said. "Besides, there is still..."

"When we have our own house in the future, we will return this place to him."

"No, you guys keep it. Even if you don't live in it in the future, it can still appreciate in value." Li Anle certainly wouldn't be reluctant to give up a courtyard house. Besides, although he was a victim in that incident, he was a man after all, so he should be more generous.

Unfortunately, I was drunk that night and didn’t feel anything. I only remembered it recently. Not to mention that Lin Daiyu was quite energetic.

"you……."

Chen Xiaoxu felt that Li Anle looked at her strangely. In fact, Li Anle's mind flashed for a moment and wondered if wearing a costume would be more exciting. "I am still a scumbag." But men, everyone has some fantasies. Normal men have them.

As long as he doesn't do it, he's still a good man. Li Anle coughed twice. "Nothing, I see you look good."

Chen Xiaoxu turned her head away and didn't bother to pay attention to Li Anle. She always felt that there was something wrong with this guy's eyes, and they looked a little evil.

"By the way, you guys want to be actors, and there just happen to be a few movies on Hong Kong Island, do you want to give it a try?"

Li Anle said.

"Hong Kong Island?"

They paused for a moment. They must be aware of Hong Kong movies. In recent years, several films have been introduced here. They even took the time to watch them, which was quite eye-opening.

"We're afraid we can't do it?"

Zhang Li still has some self-awareness. They had just filmed a Dream of Red Mansions, which had not been aired yet. Ordinary people, they were not even actors, and they were not professionals.

"What's so difficult about this?"

Li Anle put down his teacup. "Actually, movies are similar to TV dramas. As long as you put your mind to it, it's not difficult. I'll help you say hello. I think the director will also put his heart into it."

The three of them looked at each other. They could have declined the clothing factory, but they were really tempted by the movie.

Especially Chen Xiaoxu, who was preparing to become an actress, felt a little embarrassed because she was sitting opposite Li Anle.

"We'll think about it and get back to you with an answer."

Zhang Li said on behalf of the three that compared with the other two, she considers issues more carefully, and she also knows more about actors than the other two.

"Okay, call me anytime."

Li Anle didn't stay long, just drank some tea and left.

After returning home, Li Anle contacted the Asia Television staff in Shenzhen and explained the situation of the commercials inserted during the broadcast of Dream of the Red Chamber. "CCTV needs to put in some effort."

"I'm afraid we'll have to use money to launch an offensive."
