"I want to see what kind of movie can be recommended by Ms. Tang. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Xu Wenhui took it and looked at it seriously.

I saw two big characters of "Crazy Robbery" written on it.

This did not surprise Xu Wenhui, because this was Xu Anhua's first film, and as an important representative of the New Wave, her debut film "Crazy Robbery" not only opened the prelude to the New Wave, but also established her status as an excellent director of Hong Kong.

In this film, Xu Anhua combines the compactness of a feature film, the horror of a suspense film and the emotion of ***, so that the audience can have a kind of deep thinking under the rendering of the whole story. Xu Wenhui watched this film five times, and six times, and he doesn't remember it very well, but because he has a learning attitude, he has watched it many times.

After watching it, Xu Wenhui felt that it was indeed good, and the film showed her proper grasp of genre films, and was hailed as "the first film in Xiangjiang to consciously explore the narrative mode, technique and function of film". Since then, Xu Anhua has been able to shuttle freely between the two poles of film art and commerce in Hong Kong.

Along with Tsui Hark's Butterfly Change, Hui was regarded as a masterpiece of the Hong Kong New Wave, followed by Hit the Right (1980), which continued her attempts at suspense cinema, followed by a number of works with very different styles but high artistic content.

This film was originally supposed to be made in 79, and it also won the first place in the "Top Ten Chinese Films of 1979", but I didn't expect the script to be available now.

Xu Wenhui was deeply impressed by this movie, so he pretended to glance at it and didn't watch it.

He memorized the storyline.

The film is based on a real homicide case in Longhu Mountain, Xiangjiang, but the plot of the story was conceived by Xu Anhua. At first, Xu Anhua and Chen Yunwen wanted to shoot a set of scenes similar to the TV series "CID". But it can't be talked about.

Later, Xu Anhua proposed to write about a previous murder case in Longhu Mountain, because Longhu Mountain was near his university dormitory, and the two knew each other very well. So I started writing the sub-scene right away, and it was done in a day.

I first wrote more than 20 sets, and then subdivided each set into two or three sub-scenes according to the venue, and finally there were more than 60 scenes.

······

"How is it?" Seeing Xu Wenhui flipping so quickly, Tang Shuxuan, who felt that the other party was perfunctory, frowned deeply.

was a little disappointed in Xu Wenhui, and felt that although this person did make a good movie, he was too unpopular.

Xu Wenhui didn't hear the other party's dissatisfaction, and continued to read the script, originally careless, but when he saw the end, he frowned and said: "This script, the ending is not strong enough, I think the role of Li Kun can be more conceived, well, it's good to have a seppuku." ”

"If you're not interested..... Count, what are you talking about?" Tang Shuxuan froze.

originally thought that Xu Wenhui didn't care about this script at all and was not interested, but I never expected him to say this.

After coming to his senses.

"So, Xu Sheng, are you interested in investing?" Tang Shuxuan said tentatively.

Xu Wenhui raised his head and glanced at her, and said lightly: "I can ask Miss Xu and Director Xu to come to my office to talk." But the ending has to be rewritten. ”

The reason why Xu Wenhui said this was not because of a layman's random pointing, because he just saw that this script was different from the original, so he told the plot in his memory.

He didn't actually know that after the film was completed, the boss of the original production company felt that the ending was not strong enough, so he asked the ending to be rewritten and remade.

Anyway, Xu Wenhui wants the original.

"Okay, no problem, this Anwar should be no problem. Tang Shuxuan said happily.

The reason why Xu Wenhui agreed was for no other reason, it was one reason, "Crazy Robbery" broke the box office record in Xiangjiang at that time, so of course he was willing to invest.

"But I don't plan to invest, Miss Xu has to join Xu's and become Xu's contracted director to make films for Xu's. ”

Xu Wenhui said his conditions, and Tang Shuxuan was even more pleasantly surprised: "There should be no problem with this, Anwar really wants to be a director, as long as she can make the movie she wants." However, I still went back to her and told her that I had to get her permission. ”

Obviously, I didn't expect to be so successful and harvest one surprise after another, it seems that I really found the right place for Xu Wenhui.

In fact, Tang Shuxuan didn't tell Xu Wenhui that Xu Anhua had voted the script to Golden Harvest before, but who knew that the other party felt that this film was a niche film, not a commercial film, so he refused.

In fact, this film is also produced by Zhang Aijia and Liang Shuyi and other co-group Bigao Film Company.

After that, Xu Anhua's films are not very pleasing to big companies like Golden Harvest, not to mention Golden Harvest, even Shaw Brothers will not invest, because Uncle Shao Liu has never made any literary films, but he said a famous sentence to Cai Yan.

At the beginning, Cai Yan asked Shao Daheng, "We shoot 40 dramas a year, but one of them doesn't sell money, but for the sake of art and ideals, how good it is." ”

Shao Daheng said: "I make 40 movies to make money, why do I make 39 movies to make money, and one does not make money? Why don't I make all the movies to make money?"

Xu Wenhui deeply agrees with this sentence.

Yes, I can make forty money-making movies, why should I make one that doesn't make money? Ideals, art and fart have to do with it? I, scum, Hui, am a businessman, and making money is the priority.

Therefore, for literary films that do not make money, Xu Wenhui is not sensitive.

However, Xu Wenhui is willing to make literary films that can make money, as long as he has money to make, not necessarily only commercial films.

If it is a commercial film that does not make money, Xu Wenhui will definitely not make it.

At this point, compared with Tang Shuxuan, a talented woman, Xu Wenhui admires Xu Anhua more, although she also has her maverick status in the Xiangjiang film industry. But her mastery of genre film skills makes her feel free to shoot thrillers, **** martial arts films and documentaries. It is rare to make literary films and express your feelings at the same time, but also consider the commercial market.

Therefore, Xu Wenhui is willing to accept this female director.

······

"You tell Director Xu that as long as you sign a contract, the actors in my company, no matter how big they are, can be chosen by her. ”

Xu Wenhui put this sentence down directly.

In fact, in the movie "Crazy Robbery", the male protagonist is Wan Zixuan, and the heroine is Zhao Yazhi, both of whom are Xu's leading artists, and Xu Anhua's third movie "The Story of Hu Yue" is the play of his own woman Zhong Chuhong.

In addition, the TV series "Under the Lion Rock" has some fate with herself, Zheng Yuling, Huang Shuyi, Chen Yulian, and Shi boys have all filmed, and Zhou Yanfa, Miao Qianren, Lin Qingxia, Li Lijun, Mei Yanshu and others have all filmed with her

It's really fate.

Knocking on those trivial matters, the two talked happily with each other, under the frequent toasts of Tang Shuxuan and Tang Shuchen, Xu Wenhui helplessly drank the red wine in the cup, I didn't expect the sisters to be so able to drink, and drank a few glasses of brandy, suddenly felt the heat in the abdomen, got up and said that they were going to the bathroom, Tang Shuxuan also chuckled and asked Xu Wenhui to come back early PK.

Tang Shuxuan now suddenly felt that Xu Wenhui was very good and could enjoy their movies, but he was still angry that Xu Wenhui didn't like the movies he made, and decided to get drunk with each other and get angry......
