Early the next morning.

The Cathay Pacific building was full of traffic in front of the building, and Chen Jialuo, dressed in casual clothes, looked at the top floor in the sunshine, and felt infinite emotion in his heart.

Today, the office of the famous Yidu Film and Television Company is on the top floor of the Cathay Pacific Building. Two years ago, Chen Jialuo was still in and out of here from time to time.

In the 70s, Xiangjiang had Bruce Lee in front and Xu Guanhou in the back, and the scenery of Jiashang was unparalleled; Shaw Brothers also had Zhang Che and Liu Dongliang, who shot many high-quality martial arts films and continued their status as bigwigs.

The Yidu Film and Television Company was born in the gap between these two major companies, in the case of no one is optimistic, it is hard to subvert the pattern of Xiangjiang Films with superhuman wisdom, and many of the records they have set are difficult to be broken, if you use one word to describe it, you can only use "myth"!

In 1980, Rising Film Company was appreciated by Lei Zizi, the owner of Lei Zhen Cinema Line, and joined Lei Zhen and changed its name to "Yidu Film Company". At that time, even they never thought that in this office, Yidu Film Company created a new era of Hong Kong films.

Today's Yidu Film Company will no longer huddle in a small thousand-foot office, but has already moved to the top floor of the Cathay Pacific Building and won the largest office area.

Yesterday, Chen Jialuo tried to contact Zeng Qiwei, who was considered to have promoted him, but he didn't want the other party's phone to be answered, and the pager couldn't get through, so he rushed directly to Yidu Film and Television Company the next day.

"Huh, Arlo?"

Just as Chen Jialuo was waiting for the elevator, a familiar shout came from behind him.

When he turned around, the other party's palm had already slapped heavily on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Chief Helmsman Chen, you have been hiding for two years!"

The name Chen Jialuo, whether in his previous life or in this life, is funny. 's father is a fan of Mr. Cha's books, and the protagonist in "Book of Swords and Enmity" is Chen Jialuo, the chief helmsman of the Red Flower Society. Therefore, from childhood to adulthood, Chen Jialuo has a nickname - the chief helmsman.

Seeing the other party's face clearly, Chen Jialuo also showed a smile and said, "Brother You, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Xu You, one of the seven giants of Yidu Film and Television Company, is a representative of the New Wave of Film Movement. The first three films were all well received, and after coming to Yidu Film Company, they rose instantly and made one popular work after another.

"The True Color of Heroes", which sold more than 30 million this year and broke the box office record in Xiangjiang, was supervised by Xu You.

Speaking of Xu You back then, the situation was also half a catty and eight taels with Chen Jialuo. He was able to come to Yidu Film and Television Company thanks to the recommendation of Wu Zhisen, who is now popular with "The True Color of Heroes".

At that time, Yidu Film and Television Company was just starting, and although "Funny Times" and "Happy Fairy Nest" were profitable, they still gave people the feeling that they were still small productions and small companies. Therefore, in 81 years, Mai Tian and the other three decided to increase production, increase manpower, and show their strength, the most important thing is to find a good director.

Having said that, the big directors of that year were all under the umbrella of Shaw Brothers and Jiashang, and although a group of new wave directors emerged at that time, it was a pity that it still did not become a climate.

To find a good director, you must have a discerning vision.

Wu Zhisen has a contract with Jiashang, and it is impossible to use the pseudonym Wu Shangfei to film for Yidu Film and Television Company from time to time. Therefore, he proposed to use Xu You.

However, at that time, the three bosses of Mai Tian, Shi Le and Huang Bai were really a little scared when they heard Xu You's name, this young director who had filmed three films "Butterfly Change", "No Door to Hell", and "The First Kind of Danger", his works were all applauded.

Moreover, it is rumored that the overspending during the filming is quite huge and uncontrollable, and the subject matter of the film is biased, which is not in line with the popular taste.

But Wu Zhisen promised that Xu You would make a movie that was well received.

Xu You's first film directed by Yidu Film and Television Company is called "Ghost Horse Zhi Duoxing", which is still very eccentric, it is a very Westernized film set in the thirties, and the first time to use art director Zhang Weiping. The scenery and costumes are beautiful, which is completely different from the bad first scenes of the early pretending kung fu dramas that were popular at that time, giving the audience a refreshing feeling.

The script was written by Huang Bai, and the actors were not very strong at the time, but they were fresh. The actor used Lin Yunxiang, who was not yet popular, to play a private detective, with Wen Rentai to play Inspector Robin, and even Li Qiqi, the young grandmother of the Huo family, who was still Yunying unmarried, also participated in the role of 13 o'clock.

In the end, "Ghost Horse Smart Multi Stars" was released in Lei Zhen Cinema in the summer of 81, overwhelming all opponents in the same period. Xu You's name has shone since then.

Because of this, Chen Jialuo considered contacting Xu You at that time. But compared to Zeng Qiwei, Xu You's relationship with himself is not familiar to that extent.

"Let's go, let's go up together!"

Xu You and Chen Jialuo walked into the elevator side by side, and said with emotion: "Back then, in the 'rising' room, a group of us could talk about movies 24 hours a day, but Huang Bai didn't smoke, and we smoked it...... Hahaha. ”

Chen Jialuo was full of thoughts and said: "Haha, when it comes to smoking, you are still the fiercest smoker of your brother!"

Yidu Film and Television Company has always had an office that can seat seven or eight people, called the 'Rise Room', and the company's film-related decisions come from here.

Chen Jialuo's first film "Mong Kok Night" was also a work that he personally discussed with the seven giants of the art capital here.

Although it was only a short lapse of two years, Xu You's words were a little more embarrassed and emotional.

Regarding Chen Jialuo's intention, Xu didn't ask, but he also knew it in his heart. This young man has been fighting side by side with him for a year and is a very talented director. It's a pity that he was too arrogant, so he chose to leave because of the failure of the first work.

After two years of washing, what does Chen Jialuo, who is now going and returning, come and go, how can Xu You not know it in his heart!

"Ding—"

At the moment when the elevator reached the top floor, Xu You suddenly turned his head sideways and said, "Time has passed now, and it is no longer the past." By the way, Qiwei has already jumped ship to the New Yuanbao Cinema, do you know?"

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Chen Jialuo was shocked and muttered, "When did it happen?"

You must know that you came here this time, mainly to find Zeng Qiwei. I didn't expect the other party to have changed jobs, does this mean that Yidu Film Company is about to fall apart?

"It's hard for seven of us to eat a pot of porridge, so I'll go out and eat this pot of porridge for one less person. Xu You suddenly said such a sentence, looked at Chen Jialuo and said, "What Qiwei said is not unreasonable." ”

"Soon after you left, Qiwei was dragged away by Hong Taishang! They were buddies, and they left with a shout. But it's normal, he has always been well-connected, has a big face, and can eat anywhere. ”

Chen Jialuo was silent, but he could still hear a trace of unhappiness in Xu You's words. Everyone knows that this big ship will go down sooner or later, but the first person to get off must be the most mindful.

Looking at Chen Jialuo, who was silent, Xu You suddenly said, "Ah Luo, go to my office and sit down?"
