Chapter 51: Xu Ke's Ambitions

"Boss Lei, the script of "Best Partner" was written by Mr. Xu, and it stands to reason that Mr. Xu is naturally much more familiar with the control of the role than us. So I think if Mr. Xu chooses Lin Qingxia, he will definitely have his reasons. Mecca is not touting Xu Ziming, he is just seeking truth from facts, but Zeng Zhiwei is a little dissatisfied with what he hears, as the director of this drama, he understands much worse than Xu Ziming.

Lei Juekun was suddenly awakened by Mecca's words, and he realized in a trance that "Best Partner" was written by Xu Ziming, and Mecca and others just helped revise some of the content.

Lei Juekun frowned slightly, and in a blink of an eye, he was relieved, and the white hair hidden by the black hair clip on his temples appeared, and said with a smile: "In this case, it is better for Ziming to give an explanation, although Lin Qingxia is now a popular movie star in Taiwan, she has no substantive connection with our Xinyicheng Film Company, and more importantly, Xinyicheng will ensure that filming will start within a month, I am afraid that there is not so much time to find Miss Lin now." ”

Xu Ziming did not deny Lei Juekun's worries and doubts, and he would definitely try his best to go to Taiwan to do a good job in this matter within a month. Now Lin Qingxia belongs to the stage of retirement, and in 1981 she will make a comeback to participate in the film "Love Killing" directed by Tan Jiaming and filmed in the United States, transforming for the first time. In the same year, he returned to Taiwan and participated in a number of comedy commercial films directed by Zhu Yanping, among which "Red Pink Corps" had a bumper box office reputation.

In 1976, she joined Qiong Yao's self-formed company Superstar Film Company and became the queen heroine of her films. cooperated with Qin Xianglin, Qin Han, etc., and successively starred in more than 10 films adapted from Qiong Yao's novels, such as "I Am a Cloud", "The Moon is Hazy, the Bird is Hazy", and became the embodiment of Qiong Yao's heroine. In the Taiwanese film industry at that time, she and Lin Fengjiao, Qin Han and Qin Xianglin were called "Erqin Erlin", and were once known as the golden boy and jade girl.

In Xu Ziming's memory, what he has to do now is to get in touch with Taiwan's superstar film company to confirm Lin Qingxia's whereabouts, which is more conducive to his trip.

Thinking of this, Xu Ziming said to Lei Juekun: "Uncle Lei, don't worry, the candidate for Lin Qingxia is definitely good, and it just so happens that we also have to use some media to build momentum and create an exclusive atmosphere for the start of filming of "Best Partner". ”

Lei Juekun no longer refuses anything, Huang Baiming and Shi Tian, the two shareholders do not object, they think that Lin Qingxia is a good candidate, but in order to take into account Zeng Zhiwei's considerations, Xu Ziming put down his shelf and said: "If Lin Qingxia is not invited, I will notify you in advance, and Mr. Zeng's opinion will be adopted at that time." ”

"It's very good that it alleviates those concerns. Lei Juekun nodded with satisfaction.

Zeng Zhiwei gasped, he mistakenly thought that today's matter seemed to be to form a bond with Xu Ziming, and anything he did in Xinyi City in the future would be obstructed. He didn't expect Xu Ziming to have such a broad mind, but he clearly remembered that Xu Ziming stared at him very fiercely a few minutes ago.

Zeng Zhiwei was smart, like a biting cold wind, he felt a little chill in his back, and pretended to smile honestly: "Lin Qingxia will definitely be a good candidate." ”

Xu Ke looked at Zeng Zhiwei incredulously, and his attitude changed a little surprisingly.

"The media is building momentum, and Mr. Xu's method is very good. As a core member of the new art city, Shi Nansheng admired that she and Xu Ziming studied management and were very good at company operations, and she was interested in Xu Ziming's media campaign.

Xu Ziming's understanding of Shi Nansheng stops at his understanding of Xu Ke, he is not a god, in his cognition, Xu Ke has a virtuous helper, she is Shi Nansheng, and he doesn't know the rest.

Of course, in her previous life, Shi Nansheng didn't expect that she would be the one who later became the "housekeeper's wife" of Xinyi City-"They said that the girl next to Xu Ke was quite stylish, so they looked for her like this." As a result, Huang Baiming came to me and said that the new art city has a great future and is taking off, he is very good at speaking, but we are very strict in management. So I asked, what is the annual turnover of your company? He didn't know how to answer, so he said, "What do you think?" How many movies do you make a year, how much business, and how much budget do you make? He said that we don't have it yet, and I said what scale and scale do you plan to have? He had to say again: What do you think? Later, Huang Baiming told me that they had no concept of these things at all, so they wanted to find someone to take care of them. I would have liked to know them more and get to know them better. But Xu Ke has already helped Xinyicheng shoot the first drama "Ghost Horse Zhi Duoxing", the box office is very good, and he also won the Golden Horse Award, everyone is very happy together, but one day Huang Baiming said to me, I deposited your salary this month into your bank account, I felt very embarrassed, so I hurried to work. In addition to Mecca, Shi Tian, Huang Baiming and Xu Ke Shi Nansheng and his wife, Zeng Zhiwei and Teddy Luo Bing joined in the new art city, and finally formed a team of seven. Only Shi Nansheng is responsible for the day-to-day administration and production management, and in this regard, she started from scratch and single-handedly designed the administrative management model of Xinyicheng Production.

One thing Xu Ziming clearly knows is that the seven monsters of the new art city are actually gradually gathered after the filming of "Ghost Horse Zhi Duo Xing", but he didn't expect that because of his participation in the new art city, the development of the new art city began to deviate from the original track, for this, Xu Ziming was both a little worried and a little happy.

Xu Ke explained with a smile: "Mr. Xu smiled, she is very good at administrative management, so she is very interested in Mr. Xu's approach just now. Shi Nansheng is now responsible for the day-to-day administration and production management of New Arts City.

Xu Ziming said with a smile: "These ideas are what I learned from Golden Harvest, their original "Blue Blood and Yellow Flower" was able to achieve a good box office, the key is that the early publicity is very in place, coupled with Lin Qingxia's title of "the first beauty in East Asia", so that literary films can achieve good results in Hong Kong. Xu Ziming mentioned these to show that his vision of learning casting is not wrong, and Lin Qingxia's literary films can have a good box office in Hong Kong, which is enough to prove that her popularity is still quite large.

Shi Nansheng said very tactfully: "Mr. Xu, like the hostess of the next "Best Partner", does it need to rely on public opinion in the newspaper and media to build momentum. If Lin Qingxia is announced now, the protagonist is not Lin Qingxia when the incident suddenly happens, which will have a lot of disadvantages for our public opinion orientation. It's better to approve the heroine and then publicize it. “

Lei Juekun also heard the shortcomings, and everyone's faces showed a look of approval. Lei Juekun said: "Now that the selection of the heroine is really approved, it is a more stable and effective plan to use the media." ”

Xu Ziming also realized his shortcomings, and said with a dry smile: "It's still Miss Shi who is thoughtful, I will go and talk to Miss Lin Qingxia Lin first." ”

Shi Nansheng nodded proudly, and Lei Juekun also looked at her with appreciation.

After the meeting ended, Xu Ke saw that everyone else had left, leaving Shi Nanshengqiang behind, Shi Nansheng asked with a smile: "What, is there anything on your mind?"

Xu Ke nodded silently, and when Shi Nansheng guessed his thoughts, Xu Ke said slowly: "I originally thought that among the shareholders of Xinyicheng, Lei Juekun and Xu Ziming are laymen who don't know anything about movies, but they often point fingers at filming, and the other three foreign shareholders are familiar with filmmaking, and they can focus on comedy movies." ”

Shi Nansheng moved a chair to the side and pressed Xu Ke to sit down, "Is it that Xu Ziming's performance today is a little different for you, the script of "Best Partner" is not only written by him, but more importantly, he is not vague about the management of the entertainment industry. ”

Xu Ke was a little surprised by Shi Nansheng's behavior, and then relieved, "Yes, Xu Ziming, this guy is not simple, playing stocks and selling stocks, I didn't expect to write a script, and he is also very good." I think it is worth making friends with people like Xu Ziming, he is a shareholder of Xinyicheng and a member of the Xu family, with his help, I want to shoot my own film style in Xinyicheng will definitely not be opposed. ”

Xu Ke really realized Xu Ziming's awesomeness from today, and they have seen a lot of the script of "Best Partner", although it is revised, but the entire story framework is Xu Ziming's original idea.

Shi Nansheng frowned and said: "Xu Ziming is a powerful person, haven't you seen his attitude towards Zeng Zhiwei before? He is a master who is not easy to make friends, it is not as simple as you think, you think about the "Oriental Daily" yesterday or spread his troubles, and today he actually publicly apologized, and you can think clearly about the means of this. He is talented and good, and he has a humble attitude in front of all of us, but he knows people and faces, but he doesn't know his heart. Shi Nansheng also paid attention to the latest news, but what happened to Zeng Zhiwei today made him incredible.

Xu Ke disagreed: "Nan Sheng, I thought you knew more about Xu Ziming than I did, but in fact, I found that it seemed that our understanding of him before was too shallow." Xu Ziming recently helped Xinyicheng sign the artist Wu Mengda, you should have heard of this Wu Mengda. ”

Shi Nansheng was about to argue, but seeing that Xu Ke still had something to say, he immediately nodded to indicate that he knew.

Xu Ke continued: "Wu Mengda is a bad gambler, his reputation in Hong Kong has plummeted, Xu Ziming is still willing to sign him, I think the reason is not difficult to explain a reason." He hugged Zhou Yanfa and Wang Jin together, did he want to borrow the fame of the two? In addition, I also learned that Xu Ziming had studied acting in wireless for a while, do you think about it, a powerful and wealthy son would lower his stature like this?"

Shi Nansheng was very curious, how did Xu Ke know Xu Ziming so clearly, could it be that this idea with Xu Ziming had a long time ago? Xu Ke smiled: "Xu Ziming is a sincere, low-key and humble son of a wealthy family, his attitude towards Zeng Zhiwei today is completely Zeng Zhiwei's arrogance, Zeng Zhiwei is just the director of the play, and Xu Ziming is the screenwriter, how can he not be as good as the director when he considers candidates." ”

Shi Nansheng saw that Xu Ke was going back and forth to mention Xu Ziming to relieve the siege, or to praise him, she said directly: "If you really want to sit down with him and talk, why don't I call him out tonight to talk." ”

Xu Ke knew that Shi Nansheng was angry, and explained: "Don't worry, if we have the opportunity, we will invite him out together, you also know that I joined Xinyicheng more to realize my movie dream." ”
