084 [Xiang Brothers]
The next day, Xia called Xiang Huasheng, and then made an appointment to come to Yongsheng Film Company with the script.
Yongsheng Film Company is located on Austin Road in Tsim Sha Tsui, which is also part of the old Ngee On rule.
When I went up to the second floor, I saw the signboard of Yongsheng Film Company in the summer.
As expected, the entire company has only a few offices and a few staff members, which is a typical leather bag company.
"Mr. Xiang, good morning. "When I entered the reception room, I met Xiang Huasheng in the summer.
And next to him, there is also a man with a cold face, it is Xiang Huaqiang, who played the role of "Dragon Five" in "God of Gamblers".
"Mr. Xia, good morning. Let me introduce you to you, this is my tenth brother - Xiang Huaqiang. Xiang Huasheng introduced, "Tenth brother, this is Mr. Xia Xia." ”
"Hello, Mr. Xiang. Xia smiled and greeted, for Xiang Huaqiang, he has admired his name for a long time, but it is a pity that he has no chance to cooperate.
"Hello, Mr. Xia. He stretched out his hand to Hua Qiang.
As soon as he held his hands, he felt that Xiang Huaqiang's hand joints were thick and his skin was rough, like rocks.
Generally, people with this kind of hands are either coolies or martial artists, and it is obvious that Xiang Huaqiang is not a person who works hard.
Xiang Huaqiang shook hands with Xia, and he also felt that Xia's hands were strange.
Like him, he has thick joints, but his skin is slightly smoother, not as rough as his own.
"Mr. Xia is also a martial arts practitioner?" Xiang Huaqiang's eyes lit up, and at the same time, he suddenly exerted his strength, wanting to try the color of summer.
Summer suddenly felt a strong force coming, making his hand hurt violently.
"Is this to give me a dismount?" thought to Summer in displeasure, and also began to exert force, tightening his hand.
If he retreats at this time. It shows that you are weak and can be bullied. So in order to show his attitude, he can't be crushed with one blow.
The two big hands were clasped tightly together, competing with each other, without giving in, and the rattling sound of the dislocation of the joints could be heard, which made Xiang Huasheng on the side couldn't help but turn blue when he heard it.
A minute later. Fine sweat oozing from the temples on both of their foreheads, and they didn't look easy.
"Mr. Xiang is really proficient, the kid is invincible, admire, admire!" At this moment, he heard Xia Xia smile slightly.
"Polite, polite. Boxing is afraid of being less strong, and Mr. Xia's kung fu is really good. Xiang Huaqiang said with a smile.
Both of them let go of their hands at the same time.
"Whew!" Xiang Huasheng breathed a sigh of relief, "Tenth brother." Mr. Xia is our distinguished guest, and he is here today to talk about serious things, not to learn martial arts from you. He grumbled with a smile again.
Xiang Huaqiang nodded, "Mr. Xia, I'm sorry, I'm a martial arts idiot, and when I see someone practicing martial arts, I want to ask someone for advice." No wonder offended. ”
"I'm kind to Mr. Xiang. I'm also a martial artist, you know. Summer waved his hand. He was also a martial idiot before. In addition to practicing martial arts, he also likes to compete with others, and he feels uncomfortable when he doesn't fight for a day. So he understands Xiang Huaqiang's mentality very well.
"Okay, about martial arts, you have time to talk about it alone. Let's talk about movies today. Xiang Huasheng saw that the two of them were chatting about kung fu endlessly, and hurriedly interrupted.
"Ahh Yes, it's important to get down to business. Xiang Huaqiang nodded, "Mr. Xia, please take a seat." ”
Summer nodded, and then took the script out.
"Mr. Xiang. This is the script I wrote yesterday, so you can take a look at it first. He said.
"Mr. Xia, he is really quick-witted, and he actually wrote the script in one night, which is really admirable. Xiang Huasheng said with some surprise.
They Yongsheng had launched a movie "Bad Size" before, and they waited for more than a month just to wait for the script. I didn't expect the summer to move so quickly, and the script was written in one night, which was really unexpected by them.
Summer smiled, "The wealth is moving, when I think of the box office dividends, I am very excited, how can I have the heart to sleep, of course, even if I do it all night, I have to catch up." ”
"Okay, Mr. Xia is really fast-talking. Xiang Huasheng smiled and said, as long as he is greedy for money in the summer, he will not worry about not using it for himself.
The two then read the script seriously.
Half an hour later, after reading the script, Xiang Huasheng nodded with satisfaction.
"I think Mr. Xia's script is very interesting, I wonder if the inspiration came from the "Happy Ghost" in Xinyi City?"
Summer was stunned, but I didn't expect Xiang Huasheng to be able to see it, it's not simple. "Mr. Xiang is right. When I was writing this script, I did draw some elements from Happy Ghost. ”
Xiang Huasheng saw that he was right, and couldn't help but smile proudly. Although he is not a film professional, he has also done a lot of research in order to gain a foothold in the film industry.
Especially the blockbuster movies in recent years, he has watched them repeatedly, learned from the experience of other people's blockbusters, and refined the elements that the audience likes. Therefore, he saw at a glance that this script has many similarities with "Happy Ghost" in Xinyicheng.
After reading the script written by Summer, he felt very satisfied. First, there is "Happy Ghost" in Xinyicheng as a pioneer, proving that comedies with campus themes are indeed popular, and they don't have to worry about not selling high box office;
Second, the investment in this drama is relatively low. There are no big scenes such as explosions and crashes, and there is no need for any special shots, at most you can hang Weiya. For the fledgling Yongsheng Film Company, such a small-cost investment is just right.
"Are the two Mr. Xiang still satisfied with this script?" Xia asked again, "If you don't have any opinions, I'd like to talk to you about the actors." ”
"Generally fine. Xiang Huaqiang waved his hand and said, "Then let's talk about the issue of actors." ”
Summer nodded and reported his preliminary list of actors.
"Zhong Chuhong, Zhong Zhentao starring, Zheng Zeshi, Xia Wenxi supporting roles, these are no problem. But this Miss Wang Qixian, I don't know who it is?" asked Xiang Huasheng suspiciously.
The female student Dudu played by Wang Zhengxian can be regarded as a supporting actress with a heavy role, if the casting is not done properly, I am afraid that it will affect the quality of the movie.
Summer scratched her head in embarrassment, "She's my girlfriend now." ”
Xiang Huasheng was stunned for a moment, and then laughed. "Mr. Xia, you are very honest. ”
Summer smiled, "Mr. Xiang, please rest assured, since I have received the money, I will do things seriously and will not pretend to be public or private." I recommend her. It's not because she's in a relationship with me right now, but I think she's really a good fit. ”
Mr. Xiang may not know that Miss Wang is Taiwanese, and her film "This Year's Lakeside Will Be Cold" caused a sensation in Taiwan. Miss Fang Yihua was very optimistic about her future, and specially bought out her contract for 280,000 Hong Kong dollars and brought her to Hong Kong for development. ”
"Oh, since it's someone that Miss Fang likes, it won't be bad. Xiang Huasheng nodded and said, "Then use this Miss Wang." That's right. This Chen Yixin, who plays Liu Ban, is not your good brother?"
"Yes, I think this role is still more important, if you let a newcomer play it, I'm afraid it won't be good, and the old actor is afraid that it's not suitable, so I recommend Yixin to play it. Summer explained.
"Mr. Xia is really thoughtful, and I also think that these actors are just right. After listening to Xia's explanation, Xiang Huaqiang nodded with satisfaction again. He chose these people for these roles. I can't even find fault with myself.
"Sure enough, it's talent, one night's time. That's all it takes. Such talents should really be used by me!" Xiang Huasheng sighed in his heart.
"Mr. Xia, I want to ask how long it will take for this movie to be finished, we want to release it in time for the Spring Festival, I don't know if it's okay?" asked Xiang Huaqiang with a smile again.
"If the crew can be completed within a week, and everyone works together, I am confident that the filming will be completed within a month. Summer nodded.
"Then it's settled. We'll take care of the crew. We have relationships with several major film companies, so it's no problem to borrow some people. Xiang Huasheng said with a smile, "In addition, it should be okay to ask the sixth uncle for a New Year." ”
Hearing him say this in the summer, I couldn't help but be envious.
The Xiang brothers are really powerful. Don't worry about funds, don't worry about connections, and even the most difficult theater chains are sure.
In comparison, if you want to borrow actors and theaters, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
"No wonder people say that it's good to enjoy the shade with your back against a big tree. Summer sighed secretly.
……
After talking about things, the Xiang brothers originally wanted to invite the summer to dinner, but he politely refused on the grounds that there was something in the magazine.
After Xia left, Xiang Huasheng smiled and said to Brother Ten, "How about it, Brother Ten, I'll just say that he is a talent." ”
Xiang Huaqiang nodded, "It's really good." ”
"If there are a few more talents like this, our Yongsheng may not be able to become the next Jiahe. Xiang Huasheng said with a smile again.
When Jiahe was founded back then, it was not as rich and powerful as their Yongsheng. It is not because of Bruce Lee, Xu Guanwen, Cheng Long, and Hong Jingbao that they have today's status.
Since he Zou Wenhuai can do it, he can also do it.
"He's not necessarily the kind of person who is willing to be subservient. Xiang Huaqiang kneaded his hand.
Just now he fought with Summer, and although Summer admitted defeat, he didn't win at all.
The fist is afraid of being less strong. Summer's strength is not weaker than him, and the reason why he admitted defeat just now is just because he is afraid of his status.
From this, it can be seen that he is not only a person who knows how to advance and retreat, but also a person who is unwilling to admit defeat easily.
Such a character is not willing to live under others for a long time.
"Wine and wealth, no one is bad. As long as he has weaknesses, he can't escape from the palm of our hands. Xiang Huasheng smiled slightly, confident. (To be continued.) )
