Chapter 452: Enough at a time
"I won't say much more, Ah Hong and the others are not here now, but they will gather in Hong Kong when the time comes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info arrives in Berlin, someone will arrange it, you just need to bring the crew to the exhibition with peace of mind. In a corner of the party hall, Li Xu said to Wang Jing.
They were in the office of Imagination Pictures this afternoon, discussing a series of things about participating in the Berlin Film Festival, and then they met again at Zou Daheng's party with some surprise, so Li Xu told him twice.
"Yes, Mr. Li, don't worry. Wang Jing slapped his chest continuously, "I must take care of the crew." ”
Even so, his expression was faintly painful, very simple, with Mr. Li's temper, he must get an award or something, which is really embarrassing.
Speaking of which, under Li Xu's supervision, among the three Hong Kong directors who directed the film he wanted, Wang Jing was the only one who won an international award and the Grand Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival.
It's okay to direct a film for Mr. Lee, it's okay to win an international award, but when you put it all together, it's a problem.
Now everyone already knows what it is like to direct a film for Mr. Li, and how much of a role the director can play in winning international awards in this way is really debatable.
No matter how well Li Xu's storyboard is drawn, it still needs someone to take the helm before it can be turned into a movie. However, just like the online quarrel decades later, as long as you see what is good for you, the rest is not important.
And Wang Jing, this guy, although he has a thick skin, has not yet cultivated to the point where he will have an embarrassing feeling when he fries cold rice and picks up money every few decades.
It's a pity that Li Xu didn't know it, but he did...... Well, I won't care if I know it, what does your feelings have to do with me, it's not enough to give you honor?
However, I didn't plan to give him any amazing awards this time, firstly, "Fatal ID" is not particularly eye-catching, and it does not fit the theme of the Berlin Film Festival very well, and secondly, there is no suitable award.
In Li Xu's opinion, the most suitable award is the Silver Bear Award for Best Screenplay, anyway, the story structure of "Fatal ID" is still very exquisite, but the problem is that this damn award will not be set until 08.
Well, the Special Jury Prize is good, but a similar award has already been won once in Cannes, and the Berlin Film Festival has always been politically oriented, preferring anti-war and anti-Soviet films and the like, and is not friendly to suspense films like "Fatal ID".
Of course, Li Xu really wants to find a way, and it is not so difficult to win the special award, but it is ...... Is it necessary to do this?
Isn't it okay to win a certain newspaper readers' jury award? Anyway, there are one or two newspapers and magazines that award every year, and with the story structure of "Fatal ID", it is appropriate to win this kind of award.
Of course, this is all in the future, and Li Xu will not follow, because the film festival opened on the 15th, and "1942" was almost started at that time, he must stay in the crew for a while, so he will tell Wang Jing again and again.
However, Li Xu is not a verbose person, he let him leave after chatting again, and then he took a turn at the party and came to Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang.
Generally speaking, he is not interested in attending this kind of party, it does not match his own grade, and he is completely condescending. However, considering Zou Wenhuai's repeated invitations, and the fact that he participated in a similar one last year, the party held by Sir Shao also gave Zou Wenhuai a face.
"Mr. Zou is really aggressive, it seems that the failure of Cannonball Speed 2 has not affected you at all. Li Xu said.
"Going out has always been Golden Harvest's goal, and the small obstacles of "Cannonball Speed 2" can't stop us, and this movie can't be said to be a failure. Zou Wenhuai was inevitably a little proud.
Although they still invested in "Cannonball Speed 2" and hit the streets like another time and space, "Fast Food Truck", which was also released last year, still achieved a good box office, even if the release time was delayed to December compared to the original version.
This film not only has more than 20 million sales in Hong Kong, but it is also said to have sold well in Spain, and Cheng Longshu has begun to emerge in Europe, which is naturally good news for the ambitious Golden Harvest.
"Of course, thanks to Mr. Lee, not only did we make a lot of money in Hollywood, but also gave Aaron a complete style. He Guanchang said at this time, and when he was finished, he gave Cheng Long a look at Cheng Long, who was sitting with him.
Cheng Long immediately nodded very cleverly: "Yes, Mr. Li gave ten suggestions, I studied them carefully, and they helped me a lot." ”
"It's good to be able to help you," Li Xu smiled disapprehantly, "It's still the same sentence, when you are unrivaled in Asia, it's time to enter Hollywood." ”
"Thank you, Mr. Lee. Cheng Long smiled all over his face.
The help is indeed great, at least when Li Xu watched "Food Truck", he could clearly perceive that the fight between the three brothers was more interesting and funny. However, with such a change, the fight with Jet Binny in the end seems to be completely two tones, slightly incongruous, although it is still very good-looking.
"Speaking of which, there's an idea that suits you well. Li Xu said again at this time.
He Guanchang immediately gave Cheng Long a look, and Cheng Long was unambiguous, and lowered his posture: "Mr. Li's idea is not to be said, it is definitely first-class." ”
"This is still diffracted from "Plan A"," Li Xu smiled, "The core content of Ah Long's ten suggestions is the persistence of the little people, and then create miracles." Therefore, Ma Rulong is a marine policeman, and his duty is to protect the territory and the people, and he can only fit these in his heart. In the context of that time, the revolution on the mainland was in full swing, and if they had a conflict with Ma Rulong, resolved the contradictions, and then persuaded him to join the revolution, what would his reaction be?"
Speaking of this, he raised his hands: "I am a very restrained person, no matter how beautiful and correct my goal is, I will never do anything to do evil." In fact, I admire you very much, because you are the ones who do great things, and I also understand that it takes thousands of people to throw their heads and spill their blood without fear of sacrifice to defeat the Manchu Qing Dynasty. But I don't dare to ask others to do that, I don't know what the result will be when so many people are born and die. That's why I love being a police officer so much, I think everyone's life is very important, I want to do my duty as a police officer, and I want to ensure that every citizen lives and works in peace and contentment, even if a country of 40,000 people is made up of individuals. ”
After reading these words, Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang couldn't help but show surprised looks, while Cheng Long looked thoughtful.
"Okay, I just feel something in my heart, and my focus is not on this place," Li Xu laughed at this time, "Actually, what I really want is to put this police identity now." In an urban environment, a small policeman, not afraid of power, without the support of his superiors, relied on his own enthusiasm to bring criminals to justice......"
Well, he took out "Plan A Sequel" and "Police Story" together, and pretended to be enough at once, as for the reason, of course, he left his name on these classics.
Although "Plan A" is completely done by Golden Harvest, he didn't dare to swallow it all, and his name was still hung in the screenwriter's column.
So, think about it, 30 years later, when netizens were nostalgic, they suddenly found that a certain name appeared frequently, but they couldn't find much information, and then began to ponder, where is this Li Xu, it must be very interesting.
"That's pretty much it, Ah Long wants to be interested, I'll let people sort it out?" Li Xu said at the end.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Li, if you have any requests, just one word. Cheng Long immediately said that he was very good at being a man.
"Don't be so inhibited, if you have any better roles, just think about my girls. Li Xu laughed.
Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang subconsciously twitched the corners of their mouths, and a trace of envy flashed on Cheng Long's face.
Then, Li Xu turned his head when he realized something, and said to the girl next to him in Spanish: "I'm sorry, Laura, did I snub you?"
"Oh, of course, I don't understand what you're talking about. The Spanish girl smiled, but not very politely.
"So, how can I compensate you?" Li Xu asked seriously.
"Warn me Jack Chan to stop harassing me. The other man raised an eyebrow.
Li Xu shrugged, then looked at Cheng Long: "Aaron, Laura said that you were a little too enthusiastic." ”
Laughter suddenly rang out, Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang shook their heads again and again, while Cheng Long looked quite embarrassed.
"Thank you so much, Edward. Although Lola didn't understand, she could see it, and immediately kissed Li Xu on the face with a smile.
This Spanish chick is naturally the heroine of "Food Truck", Laura Fangna, although "Plan A" was advanced by two years because of Li Xu, but "Food Truck" still found her to be the heroine, after all, she is Miss Spain in 79, and her appearance is also quite in line with the aesthetics of the Orientals.
The reason why she is here today is because "Food Truck" was a big hit, and Zou Wenhuai invited her to come over to celebrate. Of course, if you don't invite you sooner or later, please come here at this time, for what is self-evident.
You must know that when Li Xu talked about his girls before, Cheng Long was still a little envious, but when he tactfully conveyed his dissatisfaction for Laura, he was just embarrassed.
Cheng Long in this era, someone directly pressed him, and he could suppress him, he was still relatively honest, no matter how lustful he was, he wouldn't touch anything he shouldn't touch. It's not like 30 years later, when any woman dares to flirt, but her son got in.
Therefore, Li Xu will rest assured that the vases he raised will be sent to Jiahe to brush up on qualifications and box office, if Cheng Long really does something, he will be very happy to press him to the ground, and at that time he will not need to care about the other party's future achievements.
This is the same as stimulating and indulging Zhou Hailin, honest flowers, Mr. Li will not be stingy with benefits, if the waves rise, then it is just to kill the chicken and set an example for the monkey.
Speaking of which, the time he has been in Hong Kong in the past few years is not short, and it seems that he has rarely been "majestic", and someone wants to take the initiative to send it to the door to be stepped on, isn't that just right?
Don't mention this, although I am very satisfied with Zou Wenhuai's statement, it is very easy for Lola to pick it up, but Li Xu is not such a person who can sit still, so he quickly found an excuse to leave.
