Chen Yongren followed behind Jiang Sheng step by step, he looked at the internal scene of the "Changhe" company, the interior layout was very simple, and he also thought of it in an instant; Zhang Che has made movies for half his life, but he is working for the Shaw Brothers, although he has some savings, he will not have a lot of them, and the apprentices who follow Zhang Che are a group of big men, so they will not be too particular.

There are only a handful of people in the company, the receptionist and the person who seems to be a guard are laughing and chatting, and the remaining two people are sitting at the desk on one side and reading the newspaper, and several people are nodding their heads goodly when they see Chen Yongren, what should they do, Jiang Sheng did not make much introduction; Chen Yongren's face was silent, but he sighed in his heart; "Changhe" as a new company, but he didn't feel a little special, although the Jiang Sheng and the company's employees he saw looked good, but there was no trace of passion and fighting spirit, what is the future of the new company in such a situation? Think about Zhang Che is also a prolific director of films, but in my memory, there are only a handful of works after the eighties, and the quality of the movies is also uneven.

Chen Yongren has never thought about changing anything, he is now just a nobody who has just entered the industry and doesn't understand anything, one is not qualified, two is incapable, three is no way, even if he thinks about it, he can't change anything, and it's not that simple.

Chen Yongren was distracted, not noticing at all that Jiang Sheng, who was walking in front, had stopped and stood up, and his body was so stunned......

Jiang Sheng was about to open the door of the office, but he didn't expect someone to "sneak attack" behind him, and the two of them seemed to "rush" in, Jiang Sheng was okay, he had practiced martial arts for many years, he was vigorous, and he had already stood firm when he turned around, but it happened suddenly, but he couldn't take care of Chen Yongren behind him, who sat on the ground with his butt and finally came back to his senses with a scream......

Jiang Sheng couldn't cry or laugh when he looked at the scene in front of him, and when he saw the outdoor office staff who were noticed by Chen Yongren's screams, he waved to them to indicate that they were okay, and then moved to close the office door, turned around and helped Chen Yongren to ask him, "Ah Ren, what is your condition?" ”。

Chen Yongren came back to his senses, said "sorry" repeatedly, and replied to Jiang Sheng: "I was thinking about something in my heart, I don't know if I feel a little distracted, I'm sorry, Brother Jiang!" ”。

Jiang Sheng waved his hand, motioned for Chen Yongren to sit down, and said, "You chose to come today but it was not a coincidence, there happened to be something today, Master and a few senior brothers went out to do things, I still deliberately stayed and waited for you." ”。

"Oh...... Don't know what movie the company is making? Chen Yongren said strangely.

Jiang Sheng shook his head and sighed, paused for a moment before replying: "If there is no accident, this movie has been completed, and now it should be released!" ”

"Is it ......?" Chen Yongren suddenly remembered Fu Sheng's death three months ago, and had some guesses in his heart.

Jiang Sheng nodded, with a heavy face: "It's "Shanghai Tang Thirteen Taibao"!" Fu Sheng's junior brother died unexpectedly three months ago, and the director zhì put the drama on hold for a while, until not long ago, the master accidentally discovered that Andy Lau in the TVB wireless five tigers is more similar to the junior brother in some places, so he went to Shao Daheng to communicate and negotiate, and then borrowed Andy Lau to replace the role of Fu Sheng's junior brother, and today is the time agreed by both parties to shoot. ”。

Chen Yongren inadvertently aroused Jiang Sheng's sadness, and he didn't know what to say for a while, and the office fell silent for a while......

"The Thirteen Taibao of Shanghai", Chen Yongren has the memory of this movie in his mind, and it is rumored in the rivers and lakes: "The Thirteen Taibao, one husband is in charge." The head of the knife is fast, the prodigal son is a rich man, the student young master, the bear, the tiger, the eagle and the leopard, the glasses and cigarette holders, and the spear cannot escape. This play is based on the real historical event "Gao Tao Incident" as the original form. The prototype of Mr. Gao in the play is Gao Zongwu, director of the Asian Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the National Government, and Tao Xisheng, professor and director of the Department of Law of Peking University; The prototype of Shen Gangfu is Shanghai tycoon Du Yuesheng, Wan Molin and other anti-Japanese patriots. The Jiang Sheng in front of him is the "cigarette holder" Feng Jinbang in the "Thirteen Taibao".

Objectively speaking, this film is a work of good sincerity, and the later "October Siege" can almost be said to replicate its model as it is. "October Siege" was advertised as having 60 minutes of play, and if it was less than 60 minutes, the ticket could be refunded. "Shanghai Tang Thirteen Taibao" did not play for a few minutes; It's a pity that this movie still can't get out of the category of old-school kung fu movies, and the final box office is not particularly ideal.

Today's 80s is the era of great changes in Hong Kong films, and New Arts City is the most representative one, Mai Jia, Tsui Hark, Lin Lingdong and other people are all representative figures, their films are both art films and commercial films, and the Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest before the 80s have a significant difference, so that in early 1982, Xu Guanjie's "Best Partner" won 27 million box office, breaking the box office record in Hong Kong film history, Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest The two old enemies actually joined forces to cooperate, but even if the two theaters shared, is also unmatched, and finally formed the current three-legged situation in the Hong Kong film industry; Golden Harvest is okay, Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang and others are eloquent, innovative and innovative, and Sammo Hung, Jackie Chan and others are also extremely talented and enterprising people, after a period of silence and exploration, there has been a sign of revitalization, but Shaw Brothers is not enterprising, so that it is now facing disintegration.

In fact, these are also inherent in the changes of the times, the replacement of the old and the new is a significant phenomenon at the time of "change", Zhang Che, Hu Jinquan, Li Hanxiang, Chu Yuan and other people who were once in the limelight are no longer suitable for this era, just like in the next 30 years, a group of young directors have frequently won high box office in the Chinese film industry, and the former fifth-generation directors except for Jiang Wen, Zhang Yimou and others, but few have come out!

The only difference between the two eras is that Hong Kong cinema is an absolutely indisputable "golden age", unrivaled in Asia and famous in the world. Although there are also good domestic films in later generations, their influence is declining day by day, and although the domestic box office of the works of many young directors is very high, there are more controversies; From another point of view, this is also the result of China's complex ideological changes, and no one can tell whether it is right or wrong......

To get back to the point, Jiang Sheng was silent for a while, and he had already let go of his thoughts, but when he saw Chen Yongren sitting next to him, he was stunned, and he laughed out loud again, recalling Chen Yongren's thoughts.

Chen Yongren looked at Jiang Sheng in front of him, and also came back to his senses, scratching his head in embarrassment, not knowing what to say; Jiang Sheng was the first to speak: "Ah Ren! Do you like to wander? ”。

Chen Yongren was even more embarrassed when he heard this, he didn't know how to answer, he was indeed an old problem, in his previous life, he had it since he was a child, whether he was in school or working after graduation, and even sometimes he was distracted while riding a bicycle, and he crashed and overturned several times, so that he got his driver's license, and he never wanted to drive, not that he wouldn't, but he didn't dare.

Jiang Sheng knew what he was saying when he saw Chen Yongren's expression, shook his head helplessly, and joked to the latter: "You! I heard that you want to be a director and make movies? How do you think you make a movie like this? What if you take the camera and the actors are engrossed in acting for a long time, and you finally tell others that the camera is not on, and you still let the family work in vain and make jokes by yourself? ”。

"No...... No...... No, I usually wander when I'm bored, and I won't be vague when I get down to business! Chen Yongren replied repeatedly.

"What do you mean...... I'm bored with me right now? Jiang Sheng pretended to have a stern face.

"Ah...... Forehead......" Chen Yongren choked and was directly dumbfounded, he really didn't expect the silent "cigarette holder" in the "Thirteenth Taibao" to be so joking.

After being stunned for a while, the two looked at each other, but laughed out loud together......
