Chapter 65: Boss Zou

The salary of 30,000 yuan is already quite high.

You must know that the shooting cost of most movies in Hong Kong is only a few hundred thousand yuan.

In many irregular crews, the directors and actors don't even have a penny of salary, and they only pay the crew members if they can make money after the release.

And the salary of 30,000 yuan is already a salary that can only be obtained by a well-known actor in Hong Kong at this time.

Anita Mui was very satisfied and said: "Brother Wen, I am very satisfied with the salary of 30,000 yuan!" ”

"Well, come on, work hard!" Xu Guanwen lightly encouraged her, and then shifted his attention to Zhang Shaojie.

Next, Xu Guanwen began to introduce other crew members to Zhang Shaojie.

The director is Xu Guanwen.

The screenwriter was originally co-written by Xu Guanwen and Xu Guanjie.

However, Zhang Shaojie's change of history made the script of this movie completed a year ahead of schedule, and of course, the screenwriter also became Zhang Shaojie.

The other main actors, including Xu Guanwen, Xu Guanjie, Xu Guanying, Feng Quifan, Dong Bi and others, are all senior actors in the Hong Kong film circle.

Among them, Xu Guanjie is also the "God of Songs" in the Hong Kong music scene.

In this era, in Hong Kong, Taiwan and other places, none of the male singers can compete with Xu Guanjie for record sales.

After the fact, the later Leslie Cheung, Jacky Cheung, Andy Lau and other superstars in the record industry may not be as influential as Xu Guanjie in the music world.

However, the reason why those later singers are more famous than Xu Guanjie is mainly because when Xu Guanjie's career was at its peak, the mainland market did not allow the spread of Hong Kong and Taiwan's glamorous voices.

By the time the mainland market was opened to Hong Kong and Taiwan singers, Xu Guanjie had already begun to fade out of the music scene.

The biggest difference between singers in this era and later idol singers is talent! For example, Xu Guanjie, most of the classic songs are original productions written and composed by himself!

In fact, the success of the "Modern Bodyguard" movie, Xu Guanjie's song, is also the finishing touch.

In the whole movie, Xu Guanwen's original songs actually reached 8 -

Theme Song: "Modern Bodyguard"

Interlude: "Impression", "Pretending to be Wild", "People Do It", "Lovesickness", "Changchun is Ageless", "I Ask"

These songs alone are enough to make a record!

In fact, Xu Guanjie's record of the same name "Modern Bodyguard", a total of 12 songs, was also released simultaneously after the movie was launched, and there were also songs that won the 1981 TVB Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs, which was also one of the most popular records of the year.

In this era, the actors in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong are not like the big names and arrogance after the over-commercialization and packaging later.

At least, Zhang Shaojie and Anita Mui began to be welcomed by many crew members in the crew.

Not long after, they were already talking and laughing with the big stars in the crew, bragging!

――――――――

After the liberation of the Chinese mainland, it has undergone a special era of transformation, and some things that do not adapt to the development of the times have been swept away. For example, feudal superstitions, bad habits, and clan systems

The stormy transformation has enabled China to truly complete the steps needed to transform into an industrial society.

If it weren't for the transformation of such a social form after the founding of the People's Republic of China, China would still not be able to get rid of the remnants of thousands of years of feudalism.

Although those transformations have caused a certain amount of damage to traditional Chinese culture. Overall, though, the pros outweigh the cons.

Hong Kong has not experienced the drastic transformation of the mainland in a special era.

Although on the surface, Hong Kong is more prosperous and more Westernized than the mainland.

In fact, Hong Kong retains more Chinese traditions than in China!

For example, when a movie is turned on, there is always a start-up ceremony!

After Zhang Shaojie and Anita Mui arrived on the set, the crew was basically gathered.

I saw that Xu Guanwen commanded some members of the crew, placing roast pigs, roast chickens, fish and other worship items, and the crew members held a lively ceremony to worship God.

Filming and worshipping gods in Hong Kong is a time-honored tradition.

Who started it, no one knows. However, since it has formed a tradition of guilds.

When movies and TV series are launched, they all worship the gods and pray for a smooth filming and a big box office hit in the future!

Zhang Shaojie and Anita Mui joined in the excitement and worshiped those unknown gods.

The crew quickly got into the work.

Xu Guanwen pulled Zhang Shaojie, and the two discussed the shooting at the beginning.

At this time, I saw a man coming in a hurry.

As soon as this person came, the entire set suddenly became silent.

Zhang Shaojie and Anita Mui were stunned, who is so big?

"Hehe, Boss Zou, you're finally here!" Xu Guanwen said with a smile.

The man who came, with a white shirt, a black suit, and gray hair.

When the man heard Xu Guanwen's greeting, he smiled and said, "Today is a bit busy, it's late!" Don't blame it, don't blame it! By the way, Guanwen, I heard that Mr. Zhang Shaojie was on the set, where was he? ”

Xu Guanwen pointed at Zhang Shaojie and said with a smile: "Well, this is Zhang Shaojie, I don't know if I don't investigate, I was shocked when I investigated." He is the most popular writer in Hong Kong, and he can sell 500,000 copies of a novel, which is more than my brother Hui Guanjie's records! ”

Saying that, Xu Guanwen introduced Zhang Shaojie again: "This is the boss of our Golden Harvest Company, Mr. Zou Wenhuai!" He's an amazing character! Bruce Lee is popular with him, and the other Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and others are all excavated by Boss Zou's discernment! ”

"Haha, Xu Guanwen, you are humble. I'm most proud of not digging Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan. It's about Xu Guanwen! Bruce Lee is just the beginning, you Xu Guanwen is the driving force for the prosperity of our Golden Harvest Company! Zou Wenhuai put his arm around Xu Guanwen's shoulders and smiled very proudly.

Soon after, Zou Wenhuai said: "Mr. Zhang Shaojie, forgive me. Because I haven't read martial arts novels much in the past few years, I didn't know that you were so famous in Hong Kong! Later, Xu Guanwen took the newspaper and introduced it to me, saying that your novel has been read by at least 500,000 people in Hong Kong and at least one million people in Taiwan. A "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" can be worth a Bruce Lee! Welcome a great talent like you, and give us the script with your face! ”

"Boss Zou is polite, although I have some achievements in novels, but in terms of screenwriting, I am a real newcomer, and I have never been able to get results!" Zhang Shaojie said humbly.
