Chapter 131: The Big Event

In the office on the top floor of the wireless building, the aroma of tea is lingering on the coffee table made of yellow rosewood.

Shao Daheng's words made Wang Zheng lose the mind to taste tea, and hurriedly asked: "What does it mean that Xiangjiang has changed the sky?"

Shao Daheng tasted the tea unhurriedly, and for a while, he asked rhetorically: "Ah Zheng, you are erudite and talented, you might as well guess." ”

Wang Zheng was depressed, he called himself over in such a hurry, he didn't say anything, and finally had to guess, he really wanted to reply to him with "guess your sister", but he only dared to think about it.

Wang Zheng sorted out the memories of his previous life in his mind, but he still didn't have a clue, looking at Shao Daheng's smiling expression, a flash of lightning flashed in his mind, and he blurted out: "Could it be a Lend-Lease treaty?"

Shao Daheng laughed and said: "That's right, it's a Lend-Lease treaty, Britain and the mainland began negotiations on the issue of the contract in 82, after two years of bargaining, the two sides have reached a consensus that Xiangjiang will return to the mainland in 1997, I believe that once this news is announced, it is bound to cause a sensation in Xiangjiang." ”

Wang Zheng has always positioned himself as an ordinary filmmaker, and he will never interfere in issues related to politics, nor can he interfere, he doesn't understand why Shao Daheng is telling him this, he asked suspiciously: "What does the sixth uncle mean?"

Shao Daheng took a sip of the teacup and said lightly: "The two sides have not been able to talk for such a long time, because they have different opinions on the issue of stationing troops, and now Britain has compromised, and after the news is announced, there will definitely be a wind of immigration in Xiangjiang, which will have a certain impact on the economy of Xiangjiang, and we must plan in advance." ”

Shao Daheng took another sip of tea and continued: "Although it will have an impact on the economy of Xiangjiang, it will also open a bridge to the mainland for us. ”

Hearing this, Wang Zheng also understood a little and asked, "Does Uncle Sixth want to expand the media market to the mainland?"

Shao Daheng smiled lightly: "Yes and no." ”

When he is older, he likes to sell guanzi, Wang Zheng does not ask questions, and quietly waits for Shao Daheng to explain.

Shao Daheng took a sip of tea, and then said: "My ancestral home is Ningbo, Zhejiang, I have worked hard in Shanghai for many years, and I am full of feelings for the inland land where I was born and raised. ”

Wang Zheng asked with some uncertainty: "Could it be that Sixth Uncle do you want to..."

Shao Daheng nodded and said: "That's right, I want you to go to the mainland for me, it just so happens that the mainland TV station invested 130,000 US dollars to buy the copyright of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", you bring the negatives over, and I will give you another 2000 million Hong Kong dollars to help me do two things." ”

Wang Zheng was a little confused and asked, "What two things?"

Shao Daheng said: "Zhejiang University is ready to be renovated, as a native of Zhejiang, I am ready to invest 10 million yuan to talk about my heart, and then donate 10 million yuan to protect the Dunhuang art exhibition project. ”

"Why did you let me go?"

Doing such a good deed is a meritorious thing, Shaw Brothers and Wireless have so many elite employees, but Shao Tycoon just let himself go, which made Wang Zheng a little puzzled.

Shao Tycoon said with some embarrassment: "What you said last time is very right, the film works that come out of the factory assembly line are destined to be eliminated by the new shooting methods of Golden Harvest and New Art City, judging from the box office of several new movies you have shot in the past two years, it proves your statement, a good movie location is not a studio can be compared, the era of Shaw Brothers' film factory has declined, and the great rivers and mountains in the mainland have many natural location locations. ”

The importance of location to a movie is understandable, and it seems that the new concept of film that Wang Zheng has instilled in Shao Daheng several times before and after has not been in vain.

"When will you leave?"

Wang Zheng continued to ask, and he was still looking forward to this trip to the mainland.

Shao Daheng said with a smile: "If it is not unexpected, it will be around September, in addition to funding donations and conducting inspections for film filming, you should also focus on which aspects of the mainland need more help from the outside world, and my Shaw Foundation can also contribute to some extent." ”

Wang Zheng nodded heavily, Shao Daheng is worthy of being a famous philanthropist, he does not blindly donate, but only gives medicine to the symptoms, which is doing good deeds with his heart, not fighting for fame.

Then the two discussed many matters about their trip to the mainland, and it was not over until after lunch.

Shao Daheng finally said: "The results of the negotiations between Britain and the mainland will be leaked by someone with a heart in the summer at the latest, and the movie you are making now had better be released before this point in time, so as not to affect the box office." ”

Wang Zheng nodded and smiled: "There is enough time, the sixth uncle can rest assured." ”

Since the filming of "The True Color of Heroes" started in the first month, Wang Zheng has been shooting at an unhurried speed, but now the situation is special, so he can only work overtime to catch up with the shooting.

After having lunch with Shao Daheng at noon, Wang Zheng drove to the set where "The True Color of Heroes" was located.

In order to shoot the scene where Brother Pony single-handedly broke into the gangs on Treasure Island, the rented venue and guns cost the crew a lot of money.

A Japanese restaurant in Kowloon City was chartered by the crew of "The True Color of Heroes", and the tatami mats in a box of the restaurant were full of guns of all sizes, and the bullets used in filming this scene were expected to be 1,000 rounds.

Because the crew rented too many guns this time, the gunfire in the sky will definitely cause unnecessary riots, and the department that controls firearms has sent a ten-person team to maintain law and order.

Originally, shooting such scenes was generally made in the studio, and the cost would be relatively low, but in order to highlight the authenticity of the scene, Wang Zheng didn't care about the cost.

Coming to the restaurant, six or seven cameras were divided into different directions, under the command of the director of photography Pan Hengsheng, they were ready to start work, and the shooting was about to start, Wang Zheng did not disturb anyone, but watched quietly.

In the long corridor of the restaurant, Xiao Ma Zhou Yanfa was wearing a black windbreaker and a flower tie, his tall figure and three-seven-point hairstyle were really handsome to the bones, and he was hugging a mature woman full of charm at the moment.

"Attention departments, turn on the radio, aition. ”

As director Wu Yusen started, the live radio played a classic old Hokkien song "Rabbit Lost Ambition".

Accompanied by music, Zhou Yan found a charming smile, hugged the mature woman and danced the suffocating dance steps, while dancing, he took out a gun from his body and hid it in the flower bed in the corridor, which is this scene, which made many Xiangjiang movies follow suit in later generations.
