Wang Jing relaxed the restrictions on Zhou Xingchi's performance, and this guy immediately became like a fish in water when filming. Many times, even Wang Jing has to admit that Zhou Xingchi does have the potential to become a comedy master.

The true masters of comedy are all individual-focused, like Chaplin in the silent film era, and now Roman Atkinson (played by Mr. Bean) in the UK. As soon as they performed, everyone else became a supporting role, completely following their rhythm, and at this time, Zhou Xingchi had begun to gradually develop in this direction.

Originally, in this play, Zhou Xingchi and Wu Mengda played a pair of stupid thieves. Wu Mengda plays the leader, and Zhou Xingchi plays the follower, but in the actual performance, Wu Mengda acts according to the script in a decent manner, but Zhou Xingchi is not limited to the script, and often has eye-catching creative performances or lines popping up, and Wu Mengda in the play has become his foil.

If it were someone else, he would definitely have an opinion if he was always robbed of the scene by Zhou Xingchi, but Wu Mengda saw it very openly. After regaining his strength from the quagmire of gambling debts, he began to honestly ponder his acting skills, and he believed that if he played a good supporting role, he could also have a great future.

Wang Jing was really convinced this time, of course what he admired was Lin Youlun's vision of looking at people.

At a glance, it can be seen that Zhou Xingchi has a talent for acting in comedy, not to mention, he can also find an actor like Wu Mengda who is willing to be a "green leaf" to cooperate with him, such a combination is really amazing!

has been in the industry for more than 6 years, and this is the easiest time Wang Jing has been a director. On the set, he didn't have to use his brain at all, he threw the script to the actors, set up the camera position to tell the photographer how to shoot, and then sat behind the monitor and drank tea leisurely. At most, Xie Tingfeng occasionally makes a child's temper and refuses to cooperate, Wang Jing has to spend some effort to make this little guy happy, and sometimes he has to buy some toys for him.

And the plot of this movie is also very simple, the careless parents went out on a trip and forgot their little son at home, the child was home alone, met two stupid thieves who burglarized, and then a series of ridiculous stories happened.

Lin Youlun made many adaptations of the original drama to make it look more like a Hong Kong movie.

There are ready-made storyboard scripts, and Wang Jing is used to making "fast food movies", and the filming of this movie can be described as fast, and the movie was completed in less than a month.

Wang Jing, the investor of this movie, is looking for Golden Harvest, and his father Wang Tianlin has always been a capable leader of the Shaw Brothers. It's not that Wang Jing is an anti-bone boy who wants to get along with his father, but since last year (1982), there has been a strange scene in the Hong Kong film industry: Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, who have been fighting for more than ten years, suddenly joined forces, and the two major companies took turns to provide films and screen them in their cinemas.

Since the 80s, the cinema system has become the economic pillar of the Hong Kong film industry, except for Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, which can produce and sell their own films, other independent production companies can only be "recruited" by the two cinema chains, Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, relying on the funds provided by them to shoot films. You must know that if there is no support from the theater chain, the best release schedule will be scheduled, and it will be difficult for the best films to sell well.

In 1982, the Spring Festival sold 26 million Hong Kong dollars with a "Best Partner", breaking the highest box office record in Hong Kong, and many subsequent films were also box office hits.

Both Run Run Shaw and Zou Wenhuai know very well in their hearts that their real opponent is not Xinyicheng, but the Golden Princess Cinema Line that supports Xinyicheng behind the scenes, the so-called Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest and New Art City three-legged stand is only on the surface, but in fact, the three major cinemas of Golden Princess, Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers are wrestling in secret.

"Double-line screening" is the specific measure of Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest to jointly suppress the Golden Princess, and the former "enemy" has temporarily become a "friend", so Wang Jing is making a film for Golden Harvest at this time, and no one will say that he is not. …,

Putting aside the relationship between his father and Shaw Brothers, in fact, Wang Jing is more willing to cooperate with Golden Harvest, which is related to the large-scale studio system that Shaw Brothers has always pursued. Shaw Brothers not only requires actors and directors to sign a one-year to several years of "body contract" with the company, during which they are not allowed to go outside to take on scenes, but also has restrictions on the salary level of directors, and the creative and filming rights are mainly concentrated in the hands of a few high-level executives.

Golden Harvest implements an independent production system, changing the employment relationship with directors and actors into cooperative relations, and film profits are also taken out to share the accounts, and even more, Golden Harvest has also established a satellite company outsourcing system to fund filmmakers with box office guarantees, and these companies have become subsidiaries of Golden Harvest, enjoying great creative freedom while having decision-making power.

Bruce Lee's "Concord" and Xu Guanwen's "Xu's" are all subsidiaries of a similar nature under Golden Harvest, and Wang Jing also wants to set up a film company by himself, Golden Harvest is naturally the best choice.

The well-edited sample was quickly sent to Golden Harvest, but what Wang Jing didn't expect was that this film was recommended layer by layer, and the most popular one actually appeared on the desk of the big boss Zou Wenhuai.

"This film is very good, but the style is very different from Wang Jing's previous works." He Guanchang is the old man who followed Zou Wenhuai to "betray" the Shaw Brothers, and has always been relied on by Zou Wenhuai as an arm, and has a great voice within Jiahe, he said this, no one else in the office raised objections, and even Zou Wenhuai nodded.

Wang Tianlin's son is very capable of tossing, but this movie really doesn't seem to be his handiwork. I heard that Wang Tianlin also has an apprentice named Du Qifeng, could he shoot for Wang Jing? ”

Cai Yongchang, the manager of the distribution department, proposed a possibility, but was immediately denied by Zou Wenhuai.

"There are people from the company in the crew, and this drama was indeed filmed by Wang Jing."

He Guanchang and Cai Yongchang glanced at each other, and they both felt that this matter was a little strange.

Zou Wenhuai closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and calmly spit out two words:

"Script!"

He Guanchang and Cai Yongchang suddenly realized that they had been focusing on the director but ignoring the screenwriter of the film. Cai Yongchang hurriedly checked the information of this movie and found that there was a very unfamiliar name written on the screenwriter's column: Lin Youlun.

He Guanchang frowned, "I've never heard of this person, it seems to be a novice." ”

"Let people check, be sure to find the details of this person." The strength of Zou Wenhuai's words can be clearly felt that he has a lot of determination in this matter.

He Guanchang didn't speak, but Cai Yongchang had some doubts in his heart, he admitted that this movie was made well, but the screenwriter in such a script company can also write it, and the big boss attaches so much importance to it, is it a little exciting?

Of course, Cai Yongchang did not express his doubts, he knew Zou Wenhuai's character very well, once the other party decided something, he would not change it easily.

Cai Yongchang could only hold back his curiosity in his heart, he wanted to see who this Lin Youlun was sacred.
