503 [Let Tsui Hark go to kidnap Leslie Cheung]
Guan Zhilin covered her forehead and went downstairs, but saw that Wang Zijun and Zhao Yazhi were already eating breakfast, she asked in a daze, "Sister Zhi, why am I at your house?" ”
Zhao Yazhi said angrily: "What do you say? You insisted on drinking last night, and no one could stop you. ”
Guan Zhilin stuck out her little tongue and asked, "I didn't do anything ridiculous after drinking, right?" ”
"No, it just threw up me." Wang Zijun said.
Guan Zhilin said haha: "That, I'll wash my face!" With that, he ran away.
was eating, Zhao Yazhi's assistant Ali also came, waiting to pick up Zhao Yazhi to shoot the advertisement for "Chow Tai Sheng" jewelry.
"Sister Zhi, time is running out." Ali reminded that when Zhao Yazhi and Wang Zijun were together, she deliberately avoided them to avoid embarrassment. But today's event time is a little tight, so I have to come in and urge.
Zhao Yazhi looked at her watch, hurriedly finished drinking the milk, and said, "Zijun, I'll go first." ”
"Bye-bye!" Wang Zijun waved his hand.
Guan Zhilin came out after washing up, found only Wang Zijun sitting there, and asked, "Where is Sister Zhi?" ”
"Doing things went." Wang Zijun pointed to the table, "Well, your sister Zhi has prepared one for you, eat it while it's hot." ”
Guan Zhilin sat down, took a sip of milk, and asked in a low voice, "I drank wine last night, I really didn't say anything?" ”
"No, I fell asleep when I got drunk." Wang Zijun said, "I learned to drink at a young age, and the last time I went out to sing, you drank the most." ”
Guan Zhilin said: "That's different, I was happy last time." ”
Wang Zijun smiled: "Then this time I borrowed wine to drown my sorrows?" It was fine when I played yesterday afternoon. ”
"Hey, you don't understand, I'm annoyed." Guan Zhilin said.
Wang Zijun said: "You are not yet 17 years old, you are famous, talented and good-looking, and you have no worries about food and clothing. What's there to annoy? ”
Guan Zhilin rubbed butter on the bread. He smeared the oil knife into the bread, and leaned on the table with his hands on his cheeks. said to Wang Zijun weakly: "Ask you something." ”
"Say." Wang Zijun said.
"You say a man can't live with a woman?" Guan Zhilin asked.
"Ahem." Wang Zijun choked for a moment, "Are you talking about me?" ”
"Who has the kung fu to mind your business? I said my dad. Guan Zhilin said.
"It's not like I'm good." Wang Zijun sighed, "Man, that's it." Eating from the bowl and looking at the pot. ”
Guan Zhilin glanced at him and said, "You really have self-knowledge." ”
"Okay, I'll leave after eating." Wang Zijun was too lazy to discuss this kind of ethical issue with a little girl.
Guan Zhilin was also in the mood to eat. cut the good bread into pieces, and said to Wang Zijun's back: "Hey, big guy." Please do me a favor. ”
Wang Zijun turned around. smiled: "You're really welcome, is it so fed to ask someone for help?" ”
"Okay, I can't speak. Boss, I sincerely beg you to do me a favor, okay? Guan Zhilin said.
Wang Zijun said: "Say, what's the matter." Explain beforehand. Don't bother me with messy things. ”
Guan Zhilin said: "Listen to me, you know the people on the road. Can you help me scare someone? You don't have to do anything with her, just blast her out of Hong Kong. ”
Wang Zijun smiled bitterly: "I said Miss." Isn't that what it's called? You are the government of Hong Kong, and you have the ability to deport. ”
"If you don't help, forget it," Guan Zhilin snorted, "I'll find someone myself." ”
Wang Zijun said: "Hey, don't mess around, you can't get rid of those people after you get wet." ”
Guan Zhilin said happily: "Then you promised to help me?" ”
"You should tell me what the hell is going on, right? The person you want to deal with hate you so much that you actually kicked someone out of Hong Kong. Wang Zijun said. …,
"I don't have a grudge against me, but I have a big grudge against my mother." Guan Zhilin said.
Wang Zijun asked: "Your old bean woman?" ”
Guan Zhilin nodded and said, "That's right." ”
"I'm sorry, but I don't care about other people's chores." Wang Zijun hurriedly waved his hand.
"Listen to me!" Guan Zhilin said urgently.
Wang Zijun said: "Then you hurry up, I'll go out after speaking." ”
Guan Zhilin sighed and said: "That woman has been with my dad for eight years, and my mom has known it for a long time, and she has never blushed with my dad because of this." Even she always felt sorry for my dad, and did everything possible to give my dad a son to pass on the incense of the Guan family. ”
"Great woman." Wang Zijun said.
"But I'm from the stage this time. b. When I came back from filming, my parents quarreled and divorced all day long. Guan Zhilin viciously stuck a knife in the bread and said, "Because that woman is pregnant and wants to be the main room, she threatens my father and says that if she doesn't marry her, she will kill the child." ”
Wang Zijun mourned for Guan Zhilin and her father in her heart, and when she met such a woman, it was better to clear it up as soon as possible. But then again, a woman has been a junior for eight years, and this is uncomfortable enough.
"Except that vixen is younger than my mother, she is not as beautiful as my mother, not as virtuous as my mother, and not as attractive as my mother. I don't know how my dad could get so obsessed with her! Guan Zhilin mistook the bread as a certain fox spirit, and chopped it for a while, "It's not good, the more I talk, the more annoyed I become." Hey, can you help or not? ”
"How can I help? It is difficult for a clean official to cut off family affairs. Besides, if you find someone on the road to deal with a woman, where will I put my face when it spreads? No more, I'm leaving. Wang Zijun left quickly without looking back, for fear of being entangled by Guan Zhilin again.
"Hmph, useless man." Guan Zhilin scolded in a low voice.
Li Jinghao drove to pick up Carina Lau's mother and daughter early in the morning, and Wang Zijun had to drive one out of the garage by himself.
The car is an ordinary Ford XD Falcon sedan, which was bought by Zhao Yazhi the year before last, and the appearance of the car is ugly in Wang Zijun's opinion, very similar to the ancestor Santana that was first used to make taxis. Wang Zijun drove this car, and he always had the feeling that he was driving a taxi, but the performance of the car was still good.
It didn't take long to arrive at the Broadcasting Road Jiashi Building, and Wang Zijun was just about to push the car door, when the sharp-eyed doorman Ah Qiang ran up and diligently helped open the door.
Wang Zijun threw the car keys to him and said, "Drive to the garage." ”
"Okay, Chairman." Cuong happily took on the task.
Wang Zijun came to his office, and a beautiful OL woman in her twenties walked in, this was Chen Xi, the secretary who was temporarily assigned to him in Taiwan. A top student of the Department of Chinese at HKU. Just graduated and can be assigned to Wang Zijun as a secretary, naturally it is impossible to just be outstanding. What's more. This Chen Xuemei is the niece of Liang Shuyi, the general manager of Jiashi.
"Morning chairman." Chen Xi was working under Wang Zijun on his first day, and although he had done a lot of work in advance, he was still a little apprehensive.
Wang Zijun said: "Brew me a cup of coffee, and call Tsui Hark." ”
"Okay." Chen Xi asked. "The general manager will have a meeting to discuss the revision of Jiashi later, and ask if you want to attend."
"No, I won't. Tell them to decide for themselves. Wang Zijun said, "By the way, I promised a woman to come to Taiwan to work as an artist yesterday." There is also a little girl who wants to enter the artist training class. You go over there and ask if they're here. If they do, let them come to my office at ten o'clock. ”
"Okay. Then I'll go first, Chairman. Chen Xi made a shorthand note in his notebook, and smiled at Wang Zijun before leaving.
It didn't take long for Tsui Hark to happily sneak in and put a notebook on Wang Zijun's desk.
"The script was written so quickly?" Wang Zijun picked up the notebook and asked. He promised Tsui Hark that he would let him make a movie after filming "The Legend of Xiang Shuai".
Tsui Hark said: "It was written at the beginning of the year. It's just been revised a little bit these days. ”…,
Wang Zijun opened the book and looked, good guy, it turned out to be "Butterfly Change".
Tsui Hark's film directorial debut in another time and space was "Butterfly Change", but now that it is back, Tsui Hark is still ready to shoot "Butterfly Change".
"Butterfly Change" is a fantasy martial arts drama, and the plot is very powerful now. Historically, this film was released in the summer of this year, with a local box office of 1.15 million Hong Kong dollars, ranking 43rd in the annual box office list.
It doesn't look like a box office high, but it's not like that at all. The box office of 1.15 million Hong Kong dollars was earned in just one week after it was released in more than 20 movie theaters.
The reason why it was only released in more than 20 theaters for a week is very simple, the release of the movie was too bad, and it was squeezed by other blockbusters in the summer file, even if the box office potential was good, those theaters had to let "Butterfly Change" go down and replace it with other movies.
If Wang Zijun is replaced by Wang Zijun to do the release of "Butterfly Change", not to mention the local box office champion in Hong Kong, it is at least safe to enter the top ten.
"Do you have a budget for film investment?" Wang Zijun briefly read the script and asked.
Tsui Hark gestured five fingers, then withdrew two more, and said, "300,000 Hong Kong dollars is enough." ”
"What about the actors?" Wang Zijun asked again.
Tsui Hark pointed to the script in Wang Zijun's hand and said, "At the end." ”
Wang Zijun opened it and took a look, and it was similar to the list of actors in "Butterfly Change" in his impression. The leading actor Liu Zhaoming is a famous actor on TVB in the future, but now he is just a dance teacher, and he has only played a supporting role in the past. The reason why Tsui Hark chose him was mostly because the two knew each other well.
The other leading actor Huang Shutang was replaced by Shao Jianan, because Huang Shutang is now being regarded as a martial artist, so it is naturally impossible to get him to participate.
The heroine is still Mi Xue, and the second female actor was originally supposed to be Huo Yingdong's future daughter-in-law Chen Qiqi, but because Chen Qiqi is now in Shaw Brothers, she was replaced by Wen Xueer.
"Who is this Shao Jianan?" Wang Zijun asked.
Tsui Hark said: "An ordinary friend, who is now playing tricks at Shaw Brothers, I think he is very suitable for this role." ”
Wang Zijun looked at the list of actors and said: "Mi Xue and Wen Xueer are not good, they can't be adjusted." The female number one asked Guan Zhilin to play, the female number two, I remember that there was a young actor named Zheng Yuling in the company, let her try it. One more point, you can't write the protagonist young and handsome? Several of the male leading actors are all middle-aged and elderly, and they are all middle-aged and elderly, and they are all played by people who have never filmed. How much do you think this will attract at the box office? ”
Tsui Hark smiled awkwardly and said, "I want to invite a big star to play, but I can't move, and the budget has to increase." ”
"Don't talk about it." Wang Zijun said, "Change this ten-color flag master to a young man in his twenties, and let a beautiful boy play it." ”
Tsui Hark hesitated: "This ten-color flag lord is a scheming character, will it be a little inappropriate to change it to a young man?" ”
"There's nothing wrong with that." Wang Zijun said, "I'll give you 500,000 yuan, if you poach a person from Lishi to play the ten-color flag master, I'll give you an extra 200,000." ”
"Dig whom? Add 200,000 more, don't talk about digging people, I'll kidnap them. When Xu Hark heard that Wang Zijun was going to invest 700,000 yuan, he immediately smiled.
Wang Zijun said: "This person's name is Leslie Cheung, and now he is a singer in Lishi, I heard that Lishi is ready to let him play the leading role in a TV series, but filming has not started yet." You don't have much time, so you have to poach Leslie Cheung before the filming of Lishi's "Huanhua Washing Sword Record" starts. ”
"Oh, I have a little impression of this person, the runner-up in Hong Kong of the Lishi Singing Grand Prix the year before last." Tsui Hark patted his head and said.
Wang Zijun said: "This Leslie Cheung has released an English record and a Cantonese record, and the sales are not very good. However, maybe because he is handsome, some people value him, so he is recommended to play the TV actor. It's not easy for you to dig people this time. ”…,
"No matter how much I have to try, it's a big deal that I split the additional 200,000 investment with him 100,000, and I made 100,000." Tsui Hark laughed.
Wang Zijun said: "You can do it yourself, if you can't dig it, forget it, find another beautiful boy to play, Hong Kong TV. b, you can choose whoever you like. ”
Leslie Cheung is really not mixing very well now, he has not filmed movies and television, and he has not yet established his own style of singing.
Tsui Hark said: "I want someone on the TV station. ”
"Who?" Wang Zijun asked.
"Lin Lingdong." Tsui Hark said, "I want him to be my assistant director." ”
"No problem." Wang Zijun said, "Wu Zhi, you can also go to Wang's Pictures to choose, I only look at your box office." ”
"That's a deal." Tsui Hark was in a good mood and left the office with a spring breeze on his face.
Wang Zijun stuffed the script of "Butterfly Change" into a drawer, leaned on the boss's chair and closed his eyes to recuperate.
The oil futures in the United States are still a few days away, and he has to make a trip, followed by a record and a concert, and he will be busy for the next period of time.
Just squinting his eyes and half-asleep, Chen Xi knocked on the door and said, "Chairman, Ms. Wang and Miss Liu are here." ”
"Let them in." Wang Zijun opened his eyes and said.
Wang Fumei and Carina Lau followed Chen Xi into the door, and the mother and daughter walked over a little apprehensively.
"Sit casually." Wang Zijun said with a smile.
The mother and daughter carefully sat down on the chair opposite Wang Zijun, and Carina Lau's eyes rolled slightly, looking at the luxurious furnishings of the office.
"Is the work done?" Wang Zijun asked.
Wang Fumei said: "Thank you, Mr. Wang, I have completed the formalities, and I can join the company tomorrow." ”
Wang Zijun said: "I will find a few people to guarantee you and take down your Hong Kong ID card as soon as possible." ”
When Wang Fumei heard this, she stood up excitedly and said, "Mr. Wang, I really don't know what to say, you are really a good person." ”
"You don't have to do that, it's just a matter of effort." Wang Zijun said to Carina Lau again, "It will take a few months for the actor training class to recruit, so you have to go to audit first." ”
"Can I be an actor if I audit?" Carina Lau asked.
Wang Zijun smiled: "If you want to be an actor, you can go to the stage with me. Bay. I have a film company over there, and I shoot every day, so you can learn as you go. By the way, it's Mandarin, not Cantonese. ”
"Really?" Carina Lau was overjoyed when she heard it, Cantonese has made her sad to death in the past few days, except for her family, she can't communicate with others because of her lively nature.
