Chapter 48: Visiting the Class
"Baby Wisdom and Stars" was a big hit at the box office, and Wang Jing has become the most high-profile director in Hong Kong.
The filming of the sequel to "Baby Zhiduoxing" has been postponed, which has made many viewers feel regretful, Wang Jing's new film does not make the best comedy, and if he has to make a gambling film, everyone can reluctantly accept it, but the most unexpected thing is that this new film called "God of Gamblers" is actually starring Zhou Yunfa, who is known as "poison hair".
As black. One of the two major variants of gang films, Hong Kong gambling films have always been old-fashioned, often with revenge as the theme, many gunfight action scenes are mixed with gambling games, and the sluggish rhythm and old-fashioned plot make the audience drowsy.
The theme that is not favored by Lu and the starring role who is not favored by Lu, the movie "God of Gamblers" has not been favored by everyone from the beginning. Many people in the circle feel that Wang Jing's confidence is inflated after making a box office blockbuster, thinking that he is an omnipotent god, and this movie will definitely not be able to make any tricks in his hands.
After the start of "God of Gamblers", the crew entered a closed filming state, and no news came out, but this matter is still being discussed in the newspapers in the past few days.
Zou Wenhuai has such a newspaper on his desk. Although irritable, Zou Wenhuai's demeanor was still very gentle, and his thick eyebrows were slightly frowned, which was a sign that he was used to thinking too much.
"What exactly does Wang Jing want to do?" Zou Wenhuai said this to He Guanchang, and he was also asking himself.
He Guanchang has always had doubts about this matter, "Wang Jing is not Wong Kar-wai, he is an out-and-out film businessman, the so-called film art is dung in his eyes, and his goal is only to make money." He is by no means a first-class director in Hong Kong, but his commercial sense is unmatched. I don't think he's going to make a movie that loses money, not to mention that this movie was made for the Xiang brothers. ”
"It's really interesting to help Yongsheng make gambling films." Zou Wenhuai's tightly knit brows finally eased a little.
"I heard that after Xiang Huaqiang read the script, he also intended to have a good time in this movie, and it is said that the role is quite heavy." He Guanchang told an anecdote, which was only quietly circulated in the circle and has not yet been reported.
"It's a script again!" A sudden thought grabbed Zou Wenhuai's heart like an iron hook.
He Guanchang also reacted immediately, whether it was making a gambling film or looking for Zhou Yanfa to play the leading role, behind this series of abnormalities, the key to the problem was still in the script.
"Lin Youlun promised us that he would give priority to Jiahe when he wrote the script." Zou Wenhuai's eyebrows were raised, and the green tendons on his right forehead were beating slightly.
"He first took out the script of the sequel to "Baby Zhiduoxing", if it weren't for the actor being snatched away by other crews first, Wang Jing would have made this movie now."
After listening to He Guanchang's explanation, Zou Wenhuai's gloomy face was finally soothed.
"I heard that Run Run Shaw has already wooed that kid, why do you think he won't agree?"
"I think he is the same kind of person as you, and of course Uncle Sixth will not be completely at ease with him. The Shaw Brothers have not been as good as before in the past two years, and the sixth uncle is also old, and he can't stand the toss. ”
"If Golden Harvest gives more favorable terms, do you think he will be tempted?" Zou Wenhuai is confident that he is much higher than Run Run Shaw in terms of knowing and employing people, and Run Run Shaw can't attract talents, but he is determined to recruit under his command.
He Guanchang knew very little about Lin Youlun and didn't dare to jump to conclusions, but he always felt that things were not as simple as Zou Wenhuai thought.
——
Lin Youlun was called home by a phone call from his mother, but found that Zhong Chuhong was also there.
"Ah Hong made shark fin soup, specially prepared for you." Chen Huiqing turned around and went to the kitchen to get a bowl, and only Lin Youlun and Zhong Chuhong were left in the living room. …,
Lin Youlun couldn't wait to open the lid, took a sharp breath of the aroma, and said, "When you smell this smell, you know that it is delicious." ”
"Then you can drink two more bowls, anyway, there are so many soups, and it is a waste to not finish them." Zhong Chuhong's pale red cheeks were floating with a bright smile, and a thought suddenly popped up in Lin Youlun's heart, if anyone put his face on it, it would be such a happy and gorgeous dream.
"Why did you suddenly remember to make me soup?" Lin Youlun re-covered the insulated box and asked curiously.
"Don't think about it, I made this soup for myself, and I can't finish drinking too much, that's why I thought of you."
Lin Youlun deliberately pretended to be very depressed, "Why don't you make up a beautiful reason to deceive me." ”
Zhong Chuhong's eyes widened, like a pool of blue water. She glared at Lin Youlun coquettishly, "You guy has played Huang Zhan all around, I can't fool you even if I lie." ”
"I'll pretend to be cheated by you."
"Death!"
Zhong Chuhong raised his hand to hit Lin Youlun, but before his hand fell, his movements suddenly froze.
Chen Huiqing stood at the door of the living room with a strange expression with a stack of bowls, and Zhong Chuhong and Lin Youlun's previous actions all fell into her eyes.
Zhong Chuhong, who has always been down-to-earth and generous, actually blushed, and the ruddy spread from her cheeks to the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, red as a ripe cherry.
Lin Youlun coughed, breaking the awkward atmosphere in the living room. He stepped forward to take the bowl from his mother's hand, opened the thermos box and began to divide the soup.
Chen Huiqing can pretend that she didn't see anything, but Zhong Chuhong has been cramped and uneasy, with her head down when she drinks soup with a bowl, like a child who has done something wrong, and does not dare to face the eyes of adults.
"This soup seems to be missing a little salt, you drink it first, I'll go to the kitchen and get it."
Chen Huiqing left under the pretext of leaving, and Zhong Chuhong immediately twisted Lin Youlun's arm hard.
"It's all your fault, otherwise I wouldn't have let Aunt Chen see the joke."
Lin Youlun grinned in pain, but not to mention how aggrieved he was, it was Zhong Chuhong who accidentally let his mother see it, how could he be blamed for this? Besides, the two of them didn't do anything in the first place, what did Zhong Chuhong have to be kind?
After the end, Lin Youlun came to the conclusion that women are really unreasonable.
Zhong Chuhong didn't intend to let Lin Youlun go, "In order to punish you, tomorrow you have to ask for leave to accompany me to the crew to visit the class." ”
"What crew, whose class is it visiting?" Lin Youlun was confused.
Zhong Chuhong's eyes widened, "Don't you even read the newspaper?" Director Wang Jing's new film, it seems that you are still the screenwriter! ”
Lin Youlun suddenly realized, "Are you going to see Brother Fa?" ”
Zhong Chuhong nodded, "There are a lot of bad things written in the newspaper, and Fa Ge has been under a lot of pressure recently, so I want to go and see him." ”
Lin Youlun asked weakly: "Can I say no?" ”
Zhong Chuhong's answer was very resolute: "No! ”
