Chapter 207: Director Candidate [First Update]

Zhou Yimin took a glass of champagne, put his mouth to Lin Youlun's ear, and whispered: "Do you think that Mr. He and Mr. Cheng's reaction in the elevator just now was a little weird?" ”

Lin Youlun glanced at her approvingly and said, "It's still our Xiaomin who is smart, so you can see it." ”

Zhou Yimin was a little embarrassed by Lin Youlun's praise, and blushed and said: "I also encountered such a situation when I went to perform without memorizing the lines before, and they didn't have the lines right in advance, otherwise Mr. Cheng wouldn't be so embarrassed." ”

Lin Youlun Ha smiled, "This metaphor is very appropriate!" Mr. He knew that I was going to shoot "Die Hard", but he deliberately used the sequel to "Police Story" to trick me, Cheng Long should not have known about Lu Dao beforehand, so they actually smashed this scene. ”

Zhou Comin looked puzzled: "Then you still promised to let Mr. Cheng be the leading actor?" ”

"There's no way around it." Lin Youlun shrugged his shoulders and said: "Cheng Long is not the most suitable person in my heart, but looking at Hong Kong, only he is closer to this role." "Lin Youlun has considered too many candidates, but it's a pity that he is like Bruce? It's really hard to find a tough guy role like Willis in the Hong Kong film industry, Xu Jingjiang is too fierce, Cheng Kuiyu is too stupid, let them be the protagonists, foreign audiences may be able to watch it, but they will definitely be scolded to death by Hong Kong audiences.

The two passed by a group of people, and a foreigner turned his head to see this scene, and then he immediately ended his interaction with the people around him and quickly chased after him.

Thomas gracefully took Zhou Comin's hand, put it to his mouth and made a kiss salute, and praised him: "Miss Zhou is so beautiful today!" ”

Zhou Comin smiled and didn't speak, and Thomas turned his gaze to Lin Youlun and asked curiously, "What were the two of you talking about just now?" ”

"Naturally, it's about you, Mr. Thomas!"

Thomas was stunned for a moment, and a smile immediately appeared on his face, "Such a coincidence? ”

"It's a coincidence that I met Mr. He just now, and he suddenly mentioned the movie "Die Hard" to me, Mr. Thomas should know what is going on, right?"

Thomas looked at Lin Youlun in surprise, and he really didn't have the courage to continue to look at him, so he had to awkwardly bow his head and take a sip of wine to hide his embarrassment.

Lin Youlun didn't want to delve into the meaning of Thomas's leak of the news to He Guanchang, otherwise he wouldn't have said it so painlessly, Thomas is a smart person, so he can naturally understand what Lin Youlun means.

"Mr. Thomas isn't here just to say hello to me, is he?"

After Lin Youlun's reminder, Thomas reacted from his embarrassment, and he really had something to say when he came to Lin Youlun.

Thomas was about to speak, but Lin Youlun stopped him, "Let me guess, Mr. Thomas should have brought me good news this time, am I right?" ”

Thomas found that Lin Youlun had taken the initiative from the beginning of this conversation, shrugged and replied: "The copyright owner of the "Mission Impossible" TV series has officially replied, and Mr. Lin can start looking for directors and actors. ”

Lin Youlun was thinking about this in his heart, when suddenly a guy recklessly passed by him and accidentally bumped him on the back.

"I'm sorry......" The other party apologized repeatedly, turned his head and saw that it was Lin Youlun, and before he finished speaking, his tongue seemed to be glued.

Finding that it was Wang Jing who hit him, Lin Youlun said angrily: "Dead fatty, go in such a hurry, busy going to reincarnation!" ”

"Borrow a step to speak!" Wang Jing mysteriously pulled Lin Youlun aside, and said in a low voice: "I heard that you are planning to invest in two movies recently? ”

Lin Youlun glanced at Wang Jing and said, "You are very well-informed." ”…,

Wang Jing wanted to boast proudly, but when he saw Lin Youlun's smiling expression, he finally just licked his lips and said, "You don't have a film company in your hands, so you must find someone to cooperate, right?" ”

"I do have two movies in my hands to start shooting, one has been confirmed to cooperate with Cheng Long, and the other has not yet confirmed the collaborator......" Lin Youlun stopped and looked at the expression on Wang Jing's face, "What, are you interested?" ”

Wang Jing nodded very hard, "We used to say that I would open a film company, and you would invest in me, you can't talk and not talk!" ”

"No way!" Lin Youlun shook his head decisively.

"For what?" Wang Jing was in a hurry, and even used the trick of the scoundrel, "We have such a good relationship, you have to help me this time!" ”

"Friendship is friendship, and movies are movies." Lin Youlun's attitude was very resolute, "You can't make this movie, is this reason enough?" ”

"I can't shoot it, I can find someone else to shoot it!"

"Do you have any other directors in your company besides you?" Lin Youlun asked.

Wang Jing shook his head.

"Isn't this over, if I want to find other directors, then I can go directly to the director's film company to cooperate."

Lin Youlun patted Wang Jing on the shoulder, "Concentrate on filming your "The Gambler", and I will definitely find you next time I have a suitable movie." ”

Lin Youlun turned around to leave, but Wang Jing grabbed him again.

"Is it possible that if I find a suitable director to join us, you can hand over this film to my company to shoot?"

Lin Youlun thought that he hadn't thought of a suitable candidate, and Wang Jing's company couldn't conjure up a director out of thin air for a while, so he deliberately let Wang Jing retreat, "That's right, as long as you can find such a director, of course this movie can be handed over to your company to shoot." ”

"You said this, don't go back!"

Lin Youlun saw that Wang Jing was so sure, so he had to say the ugly words in front: "Just find someone to make up the number, but I won't agree." ”

"Don't worry, you've worked with him before." Wang Jing patted his chest with an expression of believing that I was right.

Lin Youlun went through all the directors he had worked with in his mind, and he really couldn't think of anyone who could have anything to do with Wang Jing, and the suspicious expression in his eyes was even worse.

"You can't guess." Wang Jing smiled: "Do you remember who the director of the TV series "Kunlun" is? ”

Lin Youlun raised his eyebrows, "You mean Du Qifeng?" ”

Wang Jing nodded, in fact, he suddenly remembered Du Qifeng, standing on his father's relationship, he was at least eight points sure that he could persuade Du Qifeng to join his film company.

asked To Qifeng to shoot "Mission Impossible", this idea flashed in Lin Youlun's mind, and he suddenly felt that this was a very good idea.

The most impressive work of To Qifeng in later generations is the movie "Gunfire", the story of the film is very simple, five black people from different paths. The gang members are jointly called together to carry out the task of protecting the boss of the society, and the plot does not have the ups and downs of dramatic conflict design like ordinary movies, but Johnny To has done enough "quiet in motion" articles on the inner conflicts of the characters, especially the unique control of action scenes.

There are no exaggerated movements of flying and strafing, holding guns in the air, and there are no violent fights that erupt in an instant, but more scenes of gunmen preparing and holding their breath before and after shooting, nervously waiting and careful observation. Except for a few shots, there are more multi-camera shots of the characters holding guns, which portray the inner tension of the characters in detail, and the frequent switching of the camera adds to the suffocating tension. …,

Although the later "Mission Impossible" has achieved "cool" in form, it lacks "cool" in connotation, and letting Johnny To direct this movie may be able to further excavate the depth of the connotation of the film.

Lin Youlun's mind was quickly thinking about the pros and cons of finding Du Qifeng to make this movie, and Wang Jing was not idle during this time, he had been observing Lin Youlun's expression, and seeing Lin Youlun's frowning brows slowly relaxed, his heart was also eager.

This time, I bet all the treasure on Du Qifeng, and I really made the right bet!

"It's no problem for Johnny To to be the director of this film, but if I'm not mistaken, he is still the director of TVB, why did you poach him into your company?" Lin Youlun raised a very real question.

"His contract with wireless has long been changed to a ministry contract, and now he can leave at any time!" Wang Jing just had a phone call with Du Qifeng not long ago, and he happened to know Du Qifeng's situation.

"Then have you ever thought about what Uncle Six will think if you dig a corner from wireless?" Lin Youlun then asked again.

"If someone else invests in this movie, of course I don't dare to hit the sixth uncle with the idea, but aren't you different?" Wang Jing pretended to be pitiful and squeezed his eyes at Lin Youlun, "If you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, even if the sixth uncle knows about this matter, it is estimated that he will not pursue it much for the sake of your face." Besides, I have also helped Shaw Brothers make a lot of money-making films in the past two years, and the sixth uncle will not be so unsympathetic. ”

Lin Youlun was speechless for a while, pulling his tiger skin to dig the corner of the Shaw Brothers, can you be more shameless with the dead fat man?

Wang Jing smiled, "As long as you nod, I will call Du Qifeng immediately." ”

Wang Jing is also afraid of long nights and dreams, so he can rest assured that he will settle this matter early.

can't blame Wang Jing for being too careful, mainly because there are too many people staring at Lin Youlun now, there are so many film companies in Hong Kong, everyone wants to cooperate with Lin Youlun. Needless to say, the three major film companies, Lin Youlun will cooperate with them on one or two movies every year, in order to consolidate the cooperative relationship with each other, and the remaining movies at hand have to take care of film companies with special backgrounds like Yongsheng from time to time.

"As long as you can convince Du Qifeng, there will be no problem on my side."

Lin Youlun shrugged, he did convince Wang Jing.
