Chapter 361, look at me first

Er Dongsheng has not been very smooth recently, he debuted as a teenager, and was immediately appreciated and promoted by the great director Chu Yuan, and with the strong support of his two elder brothers, he has played his own world in the film industry step by step, and has played many popular roles.

But he doesn't want to just keep being an actor, and he doesn't want to live under the aura and care of his two brothers forever, he always wants to make a name for himself with his own efforts, and he can also repay his brothers for their care and support over the years.

finally waited until the production of the Er family was discontinued, and Er Dongsheng also regained his freedom, and after going to Taiwan to shoot a TV series, he had the idea of making movies as a director.

Now that the script of his directorial debut "The True Story of the Crazy Guy" has been written for a while, I have come and gone to several film companies to negotiate, but no result has been negotiated, even if two brothers are used to come forward, it is not better than one who is willing to cooperate.

Debao Company, which was originally very intentional, had to give up because of too much pressure on the theater chain, for fear that it would be difficult for such a film to recover its costs. The old club is no longer working, Princess Jin and Jiahe watch ninety percent of films like ministers that don't make much money, and other small companies have no confidence in him as a director.

Someone said that if you can invite a popular star to star, then you can consider investing. But the popular big star is so easy to invite, now the Hong Kong film market is just right, and the company with the strength of the actor team is not full of plans, and he can't afford to give so much money.

Speaking of which, there is also a reason, originally Er Dongsheng's first directorial work "The True Story of the Crazy Guy" will be released in June of 86, and it will become a hot spot at the Academy Awards next year. also won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his brother Qin Mei.

But because of the emergence of Mo Fei, today's history has changed a lot, and Phoenix Culture has brought the entire Hong Kong film industry to another situation. Driven by a variety of subtle changes. Today's Hong Kong film industry is hotter than in history, many new companies have emerged, and some companies that should have been thriving have gone downhill by mistake.

Debao Company is a very typical example, it is not Debao at this time in the previous life, but the top five companies, Pan Disheng has also been very prosperous for some years. But now. Holding the hot potato in his hand, let alone holding his breath, it is estimated that today's Young Master Pan will only have the goal of holding the beauty.

It is not an understanding of the Hong Kong film industry. Naturally, I knew the story of Er Dongsheng's "The True Story of the Crazy Guy", and I thought that it would be included in Debao's filming plan, which could help Debao win some favorable conditions and support it for a while longer.

But when he took over the script of "The True Story of the Crazy Guy" from Wu Long. I knew that I had to help Debao think of other ways. Debao has to be protected until Young Master Pan takes down Yang Ziqiong, otherwise Young Master Pan will sell the company to others in a fit of anger, and he will have to hide and cry.

There are always two sides to everything, and when there are advantages, there must be disadvantages, and vice versa. After seeing the script of "The True Story of the Crazy Guy", Mo Fei thought about how to operate this film, so that all parties can get enough benefits, and Er Dongsheng's failure this time also has something to do with him. So this time I have to sell it to help Er Dongsheng.

……

Er Dongsheng knew that today was his last chance. His elder brother Qin Pei found a lot of relationships, and finally sent the script to Phoenix Culture some time ago, and the other party also gave a reply, this script can be discussed.

If you can really cooperate with Phoenix Culture, it will be the best situation, Phoenix Culture is rich, this is for sure, the cast can also be said to be first-rate, the relationship with the theater chain, and various means of operation are all the best choices.

In order to show that he attaches great importance to this meeting, Er Dongsheng also deliberately brought his second brother Jiang Dawei with him, and at the same time choked to death hoping that he, the earliest Asia-Pacific actor brother in Hong Kong, could add a little score to himself, in short, he has been hit hard during this time, and his self-confidence has begun to be lost.

Originally, Er Dongsheng wanted to come with his eldest brother, but Qin Pei said that if he wanted to invest, then he must not appear, and it would have a bad effect if he went.

Without it, just because Qin Pei has been cooperating with wireless all along, wireless has too many episodes with his face appearing, although he will also appear in ATV's dramas, but now the whole of Hong Kong knows how deep the beam between Mo Fei and wireless is, didn't he make Mo Fei uncomfortable when he appeared in front of Mo Fei.

And Jiang Dawei is different, he is free after the suspension of production, and he has only made movies in the past two years, and he has nothing to do with wireless at all, and he is still wearing the hat of an Asia-Pacific actor, which will more or less always have a promoting effect.

"Second brother, shouldn't they be coming, why do I always feel a little nervous?" The two brothers had been sitting in the agreed teahouse for half an hour, and before Mo Fei appeared, Er Dongsheng was a little anxious, this was the last way he could think of at present.

Jiang Dawei and Er Dongsheng are half-brothers, his father is a veteran actor Jiang Keqi, after his death in the fifties, his mother took him and his brother Qin Pei (Qin Pei is a stage name, originally also surnamed Jiang) to marry Er Dongsheng's father Er Shusen, and later gave birth to Er Dongsheng.

Logically speaking, these three people should be called "three brothers", that is to say, there are three people between them, and they are the common mother and their respective father, and generally speaking, this relationship is indeed not favored. But the brothers in this family are so good, they are really brothers, friends and brothers, the two elder brothers respond to their younger brothers' needs, and they have money to contribute powerfully; And the younger brother also has a lot of respect for the elder brothers, like a brother and a father.

Take Er Dongsheng's "The True Story of the Crazy Guy" as an example, the material is not what the audience likes to see, and it is a novice director, which is the rhythm of hitting the street everywhere, but Jiang Dawei and Qin Pei have to vigorously support it, not only to contribute money and efforts, but also to help find a producer to cooperate, otherwise it is impossible to find Phoenix Culture.

Although it is a brother and a brother, if the younger brother is wrong, the elder brother will not save face. At this time, Er Dongsheng was in a hurry, Jiang Dawei was really worried that he would be young and vigorous, and he would have any inappropriate words and deeds later. That's a real ruin.

The slender fingers pinched the tea cup and slowly turned it around, making his heart a little calmer, and said, "What are you anxious about." Obviously, we came early, and we have a request for others, so why can't we wait? Who do you think it is, look at how many people in the Hong Kong entertainment industry rely on him to eat now, doesn't this mean anything, you just wait quietly, I heard that he is famous for his punctuality. ”

Jiang Dawei really misunderstood his brother. After so many years in the entertainment industry, Er Dongsheng is no longer Wuxia Ameng, but he has been repeatedly defeated for more than half a year. made him not so confident in the future, waiting for one more moment is one more moment of suffering, and he is afraid that what he is waiting for in the end is a failed ending.

Er Dongsheng also knew that his second brother was kind to him, and shrugged his shoulders slightly. said: "You think wrong second brother. I'm just a little worried, I'm afraid that this time there will be no result, then I will be miserable, I will be laughed at by everyone and I can't do anything, and I will embarrass you and my eldest brother......"

Jiang Dawei came to cheer Er Dongsheng today, and now he understands his brother's thoughts, nodding and saying: "It's normal for you to have such a mentality, no one is born successful." It's natural to have gains and losses when you have an opportunity, but I don't think you need to worry. ”

The brothers continued to wait, but they could only play with the empty tea cup while waiting, and drinking tea was not enough. First, today is the Lord, and they are not good at overstepping the Lord's substitution; Second, if you drink too much water, you will definitely have to go to the bathroom later, which doesn't seem to be very polite.

After a while, Mo Fei finally arrived, and he already knew that the two brothers were coming, and the people who knocked on the box entered, and the brothers got up and walked over, Mo Fei hurriedly waved his hand and said politely: "You two don't have to be polite, the company has something to do, so Mr. Jiang and Mr. Er have been waiting for a long time." ”

Jiang Dawei is an old Jianghu, and all kinds of scenes in and out of the play have long been commonplace, but he was a little surprised by Guan Zhilin who was following Mo Fei's side, but this is not the time to think about this at the moment, so he hurriedly said: "Mr. Mo is too polite, we are relatively close to here, so come early, please take a seat." ”

Guan Zhilin, who is next to Mo Fei, is no secret in the entertainment industry, since "Green Snake" that year, Guan Meiren has been labeled as Mo Fei, no one has any evidence, and no one can deny it, Guan Meiren has become an important member of Phoenix Culture and even the Hong Kong film industry.

It was because of this that Jiang Dawei was a little surprised. Generally speaking, in this case, the producer or director should bring the heroine, at least an important supporting role, but there is no role suitable for Guan Zhilin in "The True Story of the Crazy Guy", which means that Guan Zhilin's appearance is not because of "The True Story of the Crazy Guy".

Therefore, Guan Zhilin's appearance today should have nothing to do with "The True Story of the Crazy Guy", but even if she spoils her, it is impossible for her to be a producer or producer at this time. Not to mention whether Guan Zhilin's qualifications are enough, as long as you look at Mo Fei's favorite Zhong Chuhong who is still working hard to film, you will know that Guan Meiren is at least not qualified for now.

What does it mean to take Guan Zhilin, it won't be that the two of them are going out shopping, or eating or something, so let's stop by this trip. If this is the case, it will be a big discount on the interest in this script and the sincerity of this cooperation.

Could it be that I came here today to officially talk about script cooperation, and I appeared with Guan Zhilin for both reasons. The first is the chip arranged for Guan Zhilin, who wants Er Dongsheng to direct it, which is also one of the conditions for his investment; Another point is that I really have to go to dinner, and I may take Guan Meiren to Hi Pi Hi Pi after dinner.

Mo Fei didn't care what Jiang Da thought and what Er Dongsheng had in mind, with his usual style, he got straight to the point: "Mr. Er, I have read your script, it is very well written, the views are sharp and there is something to say, as a director Virgo is enough." ”

Although Mo Fei is obviously younger than himself, he is old-fashioned when he speaks, and he has a completely old Jianghu tone, but he still listened to it completely, which made him suffer a lot of blows in his heart. But as long as you can invest in this movie, what's the big deal, people are obviously much better than themselves, and what they say is completely correct.

Er Dongsheng was still happy for Mo Fei's affirmation, but when he saw Mo Fei take out another script and put it in front of Er Dongsheng, he said: "However, I don't think it's the right time to shoot this film now, you can take a look at my script first." (To be continued......)
