Chapter 284: Hobbies

Silicon Valley on the other side of the Pacific Ocean is holding a celebration banquet, but Li Xuan is still staying in Hong Kong, too lazy to fly in person. The management of Fairchild has not changed much, and Li Xuan is not ready to be replaced on a large scale.

As soon as the dust settled on the acquisition agreement, all of the executives flew from the United States to Hong Kong to meet with Li Xuan. Li Xuan also gave a detailed description of his views on the future development of Fairchild without reservation, and then the management just implemented it according to his ideas.

After Dongfang Electronics spent $300 million to complete a large-scale acquisition in the United States, Hong Kong also caused a lot of shock. coincided with a sensitive moment in the Sino-British negotiations, so there were rumors in the market that the "God of Wealth Lee" was ready to withdraw his investment. Peng Fei, president of the Hong Kong Xinhua Branch, contacted Li Xuan as soon as possible, hoping that he could make more contributions to Hong Kong's prosperity and stability.

Li Xuan asked Dongfang Electronics to make a statement at the first time, which is just the company's normal investment behavior. Dongfang Electronics aspires to become an excellent multinational company, and will carry out the layout according to its own established plan.

The move to acquire Fairchild had already begun before the start of negotiations between China and the UK last year, and there was no intention of divestment. Moreover, Hong Kong will not waver as the headquarters of Dongfang Electronics, Li Xuan is also optimistic about the future development of Hong Kong, and is willing to make his own contribution to the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong.

For example, K. Wah Bank, a subsidiary of the group, has just reached an agreement with the Hong Kong government to take over Hengrong Bank, which was caught in a run. After some public relations, this crisis of public opinion has finally disappeared invisibly. This is also the negative impact of Hong Kong's political turmoil, and Li Xuan's foreign investment must be more cautious.

The disturbances outside actually didn't have much impact on Li Xuan, and his recent life was quite interesting. When he was in Taiwan before, he suddenly thought of the "Five Lucky Stars". After months of preliminary preparations, filming finally began. Li Xuan had never seen how to make movies carefully except for visiting Zhong Chuhong once or twice before. So Li Xuan simply called director Zeng Zhiwei this time. arranged a cameo appearance for him in a role, and he had a good time.

Teapots, exhaust pipes, monk fruit, Vaseline, and Rankes were imprisoned for different reasons. The five men were released from prison on the same day, and they decided to change their ways, and the five men and Luo Hanguo's sister set up a cleaning company, but they were inadvertently involved in the transaction of counterfeit banknotes and electric boards that the gang was fighting for. In the original version, Zeng Zhiwei was only the director and did not appear in person, and the Luo Han Guo he played only appeared in the later Fuxing series of movies.

There is a curly hair in the Five Lucky Stars, which is starred by the famous Hong Kong producer Shum Kin Xun, and Zhong Chuhong plays his own sister in the film, the sister head. Several other big men have their own ghosts in order to pursue the younger sister. Countless jokes have been created. What impressed Li Xuan the most was undoubtedly that the exhaust pipe was misled by everyone, thinking that he had practiced stealth skills, but he was played hard.

In the original version, Cen Jianxun was invited by Hong Jinbao to move from behind the scenes to the front of the stage for the first time. And now, the film is dominated by Asian Films, and naturally it will not invite someone without any experience to be the starring role. Compared with most film companies that are still in the stage of grass stage, Asia Pictures is much more formal than most of its Hong Kong counterparts.

From conception to finalization, the script had to be revised at least seven or eight times. Once the script is selected by the company. It is the investment of the project, whether it is an actor or a director, who has no right to modify the script without special circumstances. And each film, from the market research before the start of filming. From cost control during filming to publicity and distribution after filming, Asia Pictures has invited veterans from Hollywood. Combined with the actual situation in Hong Kong, we strive to make every step of the process systematic and formalized.

And now many film companies in Hong Kong. When the filming of the play started, an outline was written in the script, and the lines were written by the director and actors everywhere. The production of Hong Kong films is still in the initial stage of being very extensive. However, this has the advantages of flexible operation and fast shooting cycle. But it also adds a lot of risk.

Li Xuan just gave the general script framework and some wonderful episodes of "Five Lucky Stars" based on his own memory, and the screenwriters of the screenwriting department of Asia Pictures still need to revise and create zĂ o. In this way, although the script retains the general framework of the original work, the details are still not small. For example, Li Xuan made a cameo role in the movie as a diamond king, but the original version in his impression did not have this small role.

There was no chubby and somewhat stupid curly hair played by Cen Jianxun in the script, so Li Xuan simply asked Zeng Zhiwei to direct and act by himself, and asked the company's screenwriters to redesign the scenes according to Zeng Zhiwei's characteristics. Zhong Chuhong became Mrs. Li and naturally didn't have time to act in the movie again, so the role of the girl in the movie was played by Guan Zhilin, who was recently praised by Asia Pictures.

"Why have you suddenly become interested in movies again recently?" Zhong Chuhong asked with a curious look at Li Xuan who was sitting next to him.

The two had just come out of the set and went home in the car, Li Xuan was ready to make a cameo in "Five Lucky Stars", and today he happened to shoot his role, playing a rich diamond king Lao Wu, who fell in love with the heroine at first sight. As a result, Zhong Chuhong was curious about her husband's filming, so she came to the set to watch, and saw Li Xuan's process of wasting film all afternoon.

"I've always been very interested, I wasn't busy with my career before, so I didn't have time to pick up a little interest!" Li Xuan said with a smile.

Zhong Chuhong thought that on the set just now, his man didn't even know how to move in a basic position, and he walked out of the camera after taking two steps. And including director Zeng Zhiwei and others, they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and they felt very embarrassed.

Her eyes were not blind, and as soon as she came to the set, she saw Guan Zhilin constantly complaining to her man. And when the heroine was circled at that time, it was Zeng Zhiwei who personally decided to let this vixen play, could it be that he was going to shoot Li Xuan's ass.

"Hmph, I don't think you're actually well-intentioned, I heard that the heroine was hand-picked by you?" Zhong Chuhong glanced at Li Xuan and asked casually.

"How is it possible! What is the heroine's name, I didn't know this person before, how can I be hand-picked! Besides, isn't the producer of this movie you? Aren't the actors all decided by you and Zeng Zhiwei?" Li Xuan's heart jumped, but he said very calmly on his face.

Zhong Chuhong frowned, looked at Li Xuan with some suspicion for a while, and found that he didn't have any unusual expression, so he put his mind at ease. As the chairman of Asia Pictures, her name will still be on the producer column of every film produced by the company. But since Zhong Chuhong officially married into the Li family and became Li Xuan's wife, he has rarely directly participated in the actual operation of the film company.

As a super upstart in Hong Kong, it is impossible for the Li family to break away from the local upper-class social circle in Hong Kong, but Li Xuan is not keen on these entertainments, so Zhong Chuhong often attends various events, and often becomes the focus of the media. She also came to like the feeling of being spotted by the flash and becoming a fashion vane for the whole city. (To be continued......)
