Chapter 626: I'll get the Governor's support
Although Li Xu stirred the troubled waters of Hong Kong and Taiwan, Leung Jiahui was not as down-and-out as he was in another time and space to set up a stall, but there are few good roles so far.
Wanwan Information Bureau did not explicitly say that it wanted to ban Leung Ka-fai, but privately let people reveal to Hong Kong film companies that they disliked the actor very much.
So Liang Jiahui was unlucky, although he still won the Best Actor at the Academy Awards for "Listening to Politics", but in the past two or three years, he can only play some supporting roles in some small-cost movies that do not rely on the Wanwan box office.
Of course, as mentioned above, it is at least better than setting up a stall in another time and space, although the movie "Fire Dragon" has completely disappeared because of Li Xu, he has also acted in a lot of movies.
Then, like another time and space, he began to transfer this year, Er Dongsheng asked him to play a more important role in his second directorial work, and then Mr. Li asked him to be the first actor in the film he invested.
That's right, although this is a two-hero drama, Zhou Yunfa plays the role of "President Shimogi", which basically does not officially appear until a third of the plot, while the role of "Nick Fury" played by Leung Jiahui is the focus of the plot development from the beginning.
Since Mr. Li started playing Hong Kong movies, there has been this kind of treatment, that is, Zhou Yunfa and Zhang Guorong, in other words, Mr. Li wants to praise him.
Well, Mr. Li's energy is very high, and the semi-ban of the Wanwan News Bureau is not worth mentioning at all, even if a lot of information is confidential, as long as it involves the entertainment industry, there will still be one or two leaks.
So Li Xu asked Liang Jiahui to write a biography of at least 500 words according to the content of the script, and Liang Jiahui agreed without saying a word.
The temper is hard, and he still wants to eat, drink, and Lazar, not to mention that he is also preparing to get married at this time - it's funny, he still met his wife in another time and space, and he still started dating and falling in love.
It seems that there is a reason why some people will come together and stay together for decades.
"Good." Li Xu nodded appreciatively, and after knowing that Liang Jiahui had not yet started to make character biographies while acting, he unceremoniously nodded two sentences, isn't the cool point of the real life development game here.
"I won't say much about the superfluous," he didn't look at it for the first time, but continued, "Ah Fa and Director Wu both know that I am a very good talker, as long as everyone does their best to complete this movie, everything else is easy to say." ”
This naturally drew a chorus of compliments and compliments.
Li Xu smiled and waved his hand, and then looked at Wu Yusen: "I participated in the preparatory meeting to show my face and show my attention to this movie, and professional things will not interfere casually." Of course, if there is a problem that is difficult to solve, I can also help. ”
As he spoke, he looked at Wu Yusen, and the other party immediately said: "About borrowing the ICAC building for filming......"
"Don't worry, I asked Commissioner Barnes for afternoon tea the day before yesterday, and I mentioned it to him, and he agreed." Li Xu said lightly, and then there was a sound of inhalation in the conference room.
Jeffrey Thomas Barnes, who is currently in charge of the ICAC, is known in Chinese as Ban Naixin, with the plot of "Ace vs. Ace", if he wants to shoot it originally, he has to borrow the ICAC building, and this kind of thing must be nodded by him first.
For many Hong Kong filmmakers, this kind of thing doesn't need to be thought about at all, it is very famous, it seems to be beautiful, and its social status is above average, even Li Jiacheng can't look down on their petty fights, let alone those foreigners who are above the top.
Want to apply to shoot a drag racing scene on the streets of Hong Kong Island? It's basically impossible, the car chase scenes in "Five Lucky Stars", "Police Story", and "Best Partner", which were not filmed in places like Kwun Tong and Lai Chi Kok, let alone borrowed government buildings.
Without waiting for the audience to digest this information, Li Xu immediately said: "In other aspects, if you need to close the road and police helicopter support, Director Wu will make a plan first, and then I will call the traffic bureau and the police department." It just so happens that to-morrow I am going to the Governor's Palace for a banquet, and when the time comes, I will mention this matter to His Excellency Wilson, and it will be better to have his support. ”
Another gasping voice, His Excellency David Clive Wilson is the current Governor of Hong Kong, known in Chinese as Wilson Williams.
Although because of Li Xu's butterfly wings, Youde did not hang on the mainland in December last year, but he still hung in Hong Kong a few days after he returned, and it was Wilson who took over the post of governor of Hong Kong in March.
Make a movie to get the Governor to support you...... Well, looking at the whole of Hong Kong, only he, Mr. Li, can do it.
"No problem, I will definitely make a plan as soon as possible!" Wu Yusen swore loyalty.
"That's it," Li Xu nodded, got up and was about to leave, and then thought of something and pointed at Zeng Huaqian, "By the way, Director Wu, although the script was completed by Hua Qian independently, she is not particularly clear about the narrative characteristics of Hong Kong films, she has received more orthodox training, so you still have to give more guidance on the script." ”
"Yes, yes, I'll do my best." Wu Yusen agreed, with a faint wry smile on his face.
Of course, he knew that Li Xu was not asking him to point out Zeng Huaqian, but to beat him, don't play indiscriminately when making movies, and honestly press the storyboard.
Well, it is understandable that "Bloody Heroes" won 20 million box office in Hong Kong after all, which made Wu Yusen make a beautiful comeback, and it is normal to worry about arrogance.
However, Wu Yusen will definitely have a feeling of a dog in his heart at this time, how can he communicate with the Independent Commission Against Corruption, the Traffic Bureau, and the Police Force at will, and get the Hong Kong Governor to support the filming, and use this trick to beat himself? Are you afraid that others won't know about your relationship with Zeng Huaqian?
It's a pity that Li Xu didn't care about this, even if Zeng Huaqian glared at him with a somewhat annoyed gaze.
"You can communicate, I won't accompany you." After chatting casually for a few more words, Li Xu said so, and then beckoned to Zhou Yanfa: "Ah Fa, come and talk." ”
"Okay, Mr. Lee." Zhou Yunfa nodded, and followed him to the door under the envious eyes of many people.
"Ah Fa, there are two dramas for you in the second half of the year, is there a schedule?" Li Xu patted him on the shoulder and asked.
"Huh? Two parts? Zhou Yanfa's eyes widened, "Mr. Li, didn't you say that there is only one?" ”
"That's right, it turned out to be only one, but then I saw a script, it's really good, I thought about the role of the male protagonist a little and knew that there was no more suitable one except you." Li Xu said with a smile, "Although Jiahui is not bad, he is more suitable for that supporting role, which is very contradictory, so I specially came to ask you." ”
"This ...... Mr. Li, just spare me, the schedule is full this year. Zhou Yanfa said half-truthfully, "It's not that I don't want to, but unless I am split in half in the second half of the year, I can really only make one movie." ”
"And what about next year?" Li Xu asked with a smile.
