No wonder Liu Dongqiang was a little surprised, he entered the film and television industry at the age of 20 and participated in the first film directed by Liu Jialiang "Eighteen Martial Arts", and his position at that time was a photographer.

And I worked for five years, and it wasn't until two years ago that I became a full-fledged photographer.

Although he is very confident in his photography skills and dreams of directing the tube one day, he really did not expect that this day will come so quickly.

The only thing that made him a little embarrassed was that it was a group of old boys who gave him this opportunity.

To be honest, it may not be a bad thing for these people to know three or two, but it's really not a good idea to work together.

After struggling in his heart for a long time, he finally made a choice, and said with a sneer: "Brother Dong is in love, I'm just a little photographer, where do I have that ability?"

How Li Yadong doesn't understand what he cares about, if Liu Weiqiang doesn't want to make movies, he absolutely doesn't believe it.

"Don't hide it, two, Brother B must have met you before, he is my friend, but I, definitely not a troubled boy, I am a serious businessman, please rest assured. ”

"Oh?" Not only Liu Weiqiang, but even Zhen Zidan was slightly surprised.

"What, don't you believe it?" Li Yadong stretched out his hand and measured it from top to bottom, then asked with a smile, "Do you look at me like this, like an old boy?"

Zhen Zidan subconsciously shook his head, "It's not like." ”

After Liu Weiqiang looked at him carefully, he also shook his head and said, "It's really not like it." ”

If he really said it, he with long flowing hair was more like an old boy than the young man in front of him.

But the point, as the old saying goes, people can't look good.

Li Yadong seemed to see through Liu Weiqiang's careful thinking at a glance, and without saying a word, he directly took out a Hong Kong student ID card from his pocket and slapped it on the mahjong table.

"Don't you think that people like me come out to mix around, and their education is too high?"

People are so open and honest, Liu Weiqiang has to believe it if he doesn't believe it.

It's just that there is one more thing, he is really puzzled, scratching his head and asking: "Brother Dong, there are so many directors in Hong Kong, why did you find me, I don't have any experience as a director, so I'm not afraid of smashing your film?"

Li Yadong smiled and said: "Liu Weiqiang, you also underestimate me too much, since I found you, how can I not do an investigation on you? Hand-held photography, you made it up, I think it is better than many directors' shooting techniques, and you have been on the set for so many years, as far as making movies is concerned, what else do you not understand? You just lack an opportunity, and this opportunity, I will give it to you now." ”

Liu Weiqiang smiled, he didn't expect the other party to know so much about himself, and at the same time his face was a little proud, his portable camera technology is a must in the industry, many videographers want to imitate, but they have never been able to do so.

What Liu Weiqiang doesn't know now is that if everything is found according to the normal trajectory, there will be a "Mong Kok Carmen" waiting for him next year, and Wang Jiawei's film will also send him to the podium of "Best Cinematography" at the Hong Kong Film Awards.

Er Dongsheng once wanted to steal his craft, but the picture he shot was blurry, so he had to give up.

"Brother Dong, can I ask again, what kind of drama are you going to film?"

"A series of movies that reflect Hong Kong's Troubled Boys, there are six in total, and the script is already in hand, just waiting for you to shoot. ”

"All of the six have scripts?" Liu Weiqiang was surprised, thinking: How much preparation has been made?

Li Yadong nodded, "Liu Weiqiang, I can tell you like this, after the filming of this series, you can definitely be among the ranks of first-line directors, let me ask you a word now, do you want to do it?"

Liu Weiqiang couldn't help but swallow his saliva, just like a soldier who is not a general is not a good soldier, and a photographer who is not a director is not a good photographer, and his desire for the guide tube is afraid that only he knows in his own heart.

Li Yadong continued to increase the temptation, "If you don't believe it, we can also have a bet." In addition, after you come to my company, I will give you enough rights, everything on the set, everything is based on you, I won't ask too much, at most give opinions, but in the end, I don't adopt it, or you have the final say. ”

This is tantamount to complete decentralization!

The words completely entered Liu Weiqiang's heart, he was originally a person who advocated freedom, and he was really afraid that when the time came to make a scene, the company would intervene here, and if he pointed fingers, he would not be able to shoot what he wanted.

"Okay, I'm done!"

Liu Weiqiang was somewhat moved in his heart, and said that the soldier died for his confidant, but now he is just a photographer, but the other party trusts him so much, and lets go of power, if he is not satisfied, it will inevitably seem too hypocritical.

In addition, he also thought that if he didn't have this opportunity, God knows how long he would have to work in the industry before he could get the opportunity to direct?

After all, the transition from photographer to director is much greater than the transition from photographer to photographer, but it took him five years to take this step.

After finalizing a leading actor and director, Li Yadong was also in a good mood, and when Wu Zhixiong came back, he went to a nearby restaurant and had a great meal.

The four of them were so drunk that they slept directly in the hotel next to them.

When he woke up the next day, Li Yadong asked Zhen Zidan to go back first, but he was left by Liu Weiqiang and taken to the roof room he rented.

"Well, this is the script of the first part, you study it, I will provide candidates for the five protagonists, and as for the other roles, you can do it yourself. ”

Liu Weiqiang sat on the sofa with the script and studied it carefully, and he was frightened and a little enthusiastic.

There is no doubt that this is a very good script, and after reading it, it even feels like reading a comic, and each character is portrayed vividly.

But the scale is really big, especially the lines in it, which can be described as non-stop.

Based on Liu Weiqiang's seven years of experience in the film and television industry, if this movie is really made, there are only two results, one is to be scolded bloody, and the other is to be a big seller!

"Don't worry, for ordinary people, Crazy Boy always has a sense of mystery, and anything with a sense of mystery can always arouse the interest of the audience. ”

This young man is also really powerful, and he can always see what is in his heart.

"Brother Dong, in fact, I'm still a little worried, will I teach bad children if I shoot it like this?" Liu Weiqiang smiled.

Li Yadong also smiled, "Then you have to put more thought into it, focus on the word 'friendship', and let it get out of low-level fun as much as possible and become a flesh-and-blood movie." ”

"Brother Dong......" Liu Weiqiang looked at him deeply and said sincerely: "Actually, I think you can direct this movie yourself." ”

"Forget it, I'll leave this kind of thing to you, a professional, I have other things to do. ”

Li Yadong said, handing him a suitcase, "There are 500,000 yuan in it, which is considered start-up capital, you can set up the crew yourself, rent the equipment if you can, buy it if you can't rent it, and prepare as soon as possible." ”

"Good!"

500,000, a house, the other party was so easily handed over to him, Liu Weiqiang felt flattered.

……

Gu Tianluo still went to the Stock Exchange every day to station, and then rushed to the roof at night to report the daily market changes of 20 stocks to Li Yadong.

The evening breeze was gentle, Gu Tianluo was used to staying here late at night before going home, and was begging the Qi brothers outside to teach him kung fu.

Li Yadong has already told him about the upcoming movie, he is naturally excited, he heard that there are many fight scenes, and he wants to practice his skills more and more.

Li Yadong sat on the sofa in the small living room, checking the today's stock market he brought back.

Recently, the Hong Kong stock market has been very flat, not alarmed, originally Li Yadong thought that there was probably no gain today, but looking at it, there was a stock, but it caught his attention.

The stock continued to rise today, without a single decline, and was more solid than the last time he met Chinese Estates on the stock exchange.

And the increase is not small, as of the close of the afternoon, the stock price has risen by a whole piece and two cents.

Li Yadong hurriedly took out the changes in the past few days for comparison, and found that there were ups and downs before, and the fluctuations were normal.

There is no doubt that there is something wrong with this stock.

Then, immediately look up today's and yesterday's newspapers, magazines, and find information about the company.

After a long time, Li Yadong couldn't help frowning, "No?"

In the newspapers of the last two days, there is no news about this hotel.

If there is any business adjustment in this company that makes shareholders feel that the prospects are considerable, then the stock price rise is also reasonable.

But the key is nothing, and the stock price has risen so much in one day, it seems a little boring.

"Big hotel, big hotel......"

The company, known as Grand Hotel, is the oldest hotel company in Hong Kong, with a British-owned background and a stock code of 00045.

Li Yadong was lying on the sofa, his mouth kept chanting its name, and after a long time, his eyes suddenly stared!

Dog's day, finally remembered!

It's true that some things have passed for too long, and the memories in my head are a little blurry.

In 1987, the sniper battle of the Grand Hotel!

The mastermind behind the scenes is still Liu Luanxiong.

This guy has just finished sniping the Zhuang family's Nengda Technology and the fourth uncle's China Gas, and this time he has extended his claws to the powerful old British-funded consortium, the Kadoorie family.

"Damn, finally got one!"

Li Yadong looked excited, he tirelessly paid attention to Hong Kong's capital market information every day, but he never found a suitable business opportunity, and this time he finally caught one.

If I am not mistaken, in this sniper battle, Liu Luanxiong was defeated in the end.

Of course, the so-called "defeat" here only means that the hotel was not in the bag. Money, he must have earned it.

And the reason why it will lose is because the Kadoorie family is very strong, and the background is so strong that it is a mess, and there is a "Kadoorie Building" in the University of Hong Kong where Li Yadong studied.

Originally, Liu Luanxiong obtained a part of the shares from the Liang Zhonghao family, and quietly absorbed some of them from the capital market, and he was already winning.

But the Kadoorie family was really ruthless, and used a trick to encircle Wei to save Zhao, and in turn sniped Liu Luanxiong's Chinese real estate, which was Liu Luanxiong's careful liver, how could it be tolerated? So in the end, they could only make peace and sell their shares to the Kadoorie family.

Li Yadong speculated that today's stock fluctuations in the hotel were caused by Liu Luanxiong's absorption of the outstanding loose shares in the market.

If there is no accident, the stock price will stabilize again tomorrow, because Liu Luanxiong is not so stupid, and the stock price fluctuates continuously, and the big hotel is bound to be aware of it, so his small abacus will not be successful.

Li Yadong still remembers that the financial war lasted for several months.

You must know that this is a serious business opportunity, Hong Kong shareholders for Liu Luanxiong, there is a kind of almost blind trust, as long as this guy shares absorb enough, proposed a comprehensive acquisition, it is not difficult to imagine that the stock price of the hotel will inevitably grow wildly.

But who would have thought that Liu Luanxiong would fail to acquire in the end?

I'm afraid he didn't even think of it, right?

However, Li Yadong knows. 8)
