Chapter 131 Child Star

The conversation inevitably involves Lin Zixuan's novels and movies.

Miss Song’s third lady really read Lin Zixuan’s works, and she also interpreted them from a female perspective.

If "Gone with the Wind" talks about the strength of women in the new era, then "Border Town" talks about the flexibility of traditional women.

Scarlett's strength is revealed, while Cuicui's strength is hidden in her heart. This is the resilience of Chinese women.

The female image expressed in "To Oak" is stronger and brave, which requires spiritual equality between men and women.

Perhaps because Lin Zixuan's novels always pay too much attention to women, this third lady appreciates them quite well. She hopes that Lin Zixuan can write the image of a new Chinese woman and show the beauty of independence and confidence.

Lin Zixuan felt that the third lady was too lively and had her own opinions on things, and preferred Western thinking.

"No need to write, you can see the image of a new Chinese woman every day when you look in the mirror." Lin Zixuan complimented.

This made the third lady very useful, and she even liked Lin Zixuan even more.

In fact, Lin Zixuan did not deliberately promote feminism when writing these novels, but this did not prevent others from interpreting them. This is the interesting thing about literary works.

Everyone can interpret the same novel differently.

As for writing about the image of a new Chinese woman, Lin Zixuan really doesn't remember the novels in this regard. He has read some of the female novels about palace fighting, so this is not a new woman anymore.

In terms of movies, the star film companies are currently filming three movies: "Making a Fight in the Heavenly Palace", "The Little Im the Home" and "Mom Loves Me Again".

The first two movies do not fit the taste of Miss Song’s third lady. She likes those with a petty bourgeois mood.

For example, in "Shanghai Holiday", of course, most of the movies she watched were foreign movies.

As for "Mom Loves Me Again" is a bitter film, she just asked about the content and was not very interested.

Song Ziwen also exchanged views on Shanghai's financial industry with him, and he still had expectations for the stock market.

Lin Zixuan can only help this. He believes that this future uncle will no longer have to consider these trivial matters soon, and there will be greater opportunities waiting for him.

All in all, it was a pretty pleasant dinner.

On the way back, Lin Zixuan thought about whether the movies shot by the celebrity film company should be filmed with a new female theme, whether there is a market for such films, etc.

The preparations for the movie "Home Imperial" went smoothly. The protagonist has been selected, and it is Dan Du Yu's nephew and great-grandson Dan Erchun.

But Erchun was born in 1915 and just turned seven this year.

He performed for a few minutes in "The Vow" and performed very well, with his eyes very spiritual, which left a deep impression on the audience.

I heard that Lin Zixuan was going to find a child to be the leading actor, but Yin Mingzhu recommended it but Erchun.

Lin Zixuan used to see that naughty child in Dandu Yu's company when filming "Shanghai Holiday". This child often makes trouble in the crew, but he is very clever.

After the filming of "The Vow" was completed, Du Yu was still conceiving the next movie.

The movie "The Vow" is not as successful as he expected. Although it made money, it was incomparable to the popularity of "Shanghai Holiday", which made him quite disappointed.

With the arrival of audio movies, Du Yu hesitated a little.

He is a technical controller, who likes to pursue novel technologies and tries new things during shooting, but now only celebrity film companies can shoot audio movies, and this technology is definitely kept confidential to the outside world.

The Shanghai Film Company is too small to invest a lot of money to buy audio film machines.

He clearly felt that with the rise of large companies like celebrity film companies, it is becoming increasingly difficult for small film companies to survive. No wonder many people in the circle are now hating celebrity film companies.

But celebrity film companies will not go bankrupt, at least they have no tendency to go bankrupt now.

Then there are only two ways to survive. One is to spend a lot of money to improve one's own strength, and the other is to be merged by a celebrity film company.

Just as he was thinking about his future prospects, Lin Zixuan came over and invited Erchun to star in a movie starring children. This is probably the first children's movie in China.

But Du Yu read the script, a story about a child and two stupid thieves.

It’s a bit like the funny short films in the past, which means constantly creating jokes, but extending the original twenty-minute short film to sixty minutes, making the audience laugh more enjoyable.

This film is not difficult to shoot, but Erchun is lively and active, so he should be able to act well, so he agreed.

As for the pay, Lin Zixuan's character will not treat a child badly.

Lin Zixuan took the opportunity to invite Dan Du Yu to direct the movie. He had long wanted to bring Dan Du Yu to a celebrity film company, but he lacked an opportunity.

But Du Yu was extremely curious about audio movies and wanted to see them, so he agreed.

Lin Zixuan interviewed Dan Erchun symbolically once and found that the naughty child was still as lively as ever. In order to correct the child, he asked Dan Erchun to perform a crying scene.

Unexpectedly, the child cried as soon as he said he was crying, without any ambiguity.

It is said that this is a unique skill that Erchun has mastered to avoid punishment after doing something wrong.

Lin Zixuan has to sigh that every naughty child is an acting school.

He couldn't help but think of the tear-jerking blockbuster "Mom Loves Me Again", which also needed a small actor.

The song "Only Mom in the World" has won wide praise from the society. This nursery rhyme is widely circulated among children. Even music classes in primary schools will be played, which is well-known.

It's time to release a movie that praises maternal love, and it happens to be the young actor Erchun.

If he could have wonderful performances in "Home Im" and "Mom Loves Me Again", he would definitely become the most famous child star in China in this era.

It can make people laugh and cry. It is unreasonable to be popular!

However, there were problems with the candidates for actresses. Yin Mingzhu was very worried about whether she could play the role of a mother well. After all, she was only 18 years old and didn't know much about the great feelings of maternal love.

In order to shoot a movie, she was angry with her mother.

In "Mom Loves Me Again", mother and child are the most critical roles and cannot be missed.

But in 1922, there were few actresses, especially those with pretty appearances. No good-family women were willing to shoot movies and showed their beauty. Yin Mingzhu received Western education in Chinese and Western girls' schools and had a relatively open mind.

In the future, when actresses become a profession, more women will join the film industry.

After some search, the celebrity film company found a woman named Peng Jianqing who was willing to star in the movie.

This woman is quite beautiful. Although she is only twenty years old, she is already married and later divorced. She has rich emotional experiences and is relatively embarrassed in her life.
