When Lei Juewen and Hu Hui left the tennis club, Lei Guang told him something, a man named Xu Guangwen called and said that he wanted to meet him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Lei Juewen asked Lei Guang if he had set a time for him to meet, and after learning that he didn't, he called Xu Guangwen, and the two sides made an appointment to meet in the afternoon.

The car drove to the apartment on Broadcasting Avenue, Hu Huizhong went to the second floor, Lei Juewen went to the fourth floor, played ball, and had to take a shower.

In the afternoon, Lei Juewen ate in Hu Huizhong's apartment, and stayed with her for a while after the meal, until the time agreed with Xu Guangwen was almost up, and then he left.

Lei Juewen did not ask Guangwen to go to the Peninsula Hotel for afternoon tea, and the place where the two met was also a tea hall and a place to drink afternoon tea, but this place was more than one level different from the Peninsula Hotel. This is not the place where Lei Juewen is determined, Xu Guangwen said that he came here to meet, Lei Juewen doesn't care.

Xu Guangwen looks like a very capable man, less than forty years old, and he is in the age of fighting.

"Mr. Ray!" "Hello, Mr. Xu!"

After meeting, the two politely greeted each other before sitting down.

Xu Guangwen took the lead and said, "Mr. Lei, Ajie told me, do you want to invite me to make a film?" ā€

Lei Juewen nodded and said: "Yes, I originally wanted to invest with Xu's Pictures, but I heard Brother Ling say that the films made by Xu's Pictures will be released in Golden Harvest Cinemas, so I dispelled this idea." ā€

Xu Guangwen said: "There is indeed such a requirement for the cooperation between Xu's Pictures and Golden Harvest, so Xu's Pictures cannot cooperate with film companies other than Golden Harvest. ā€

Lei Juewen listened and said: "So, I want to invite Mr. Xu to be the director, and I will fund the film, I don't know if Mr. Xu is willing?" ā€

Xu Guangwen shook his head slightly and said: "Don't hide it from Mr. Lei, I was thinking of a script recently, and when the script is conceived, I will make a film myself, so I'm sorry, I can't shoot a film for you." ā€

Lei Juewen's heart moved when he heard this, could it be that the film Xu Guangwen is now conceiving is a modern bodyguard, and immediately said: "In this way, I'll tell Mr. Xu the script first, and then you can make a decision, how about it?" ā€

Xu Guangwen nodded and said, "Okay!" And Mr. Lei rest assured, even if I don't make this film, I won't leak the script. ā€

"Deng Xiaolong has been honest and helpful since he was a child, and his desire is to be a good policeman who fights violence and is good when he grows up. Helplessly, he was turned away by the police station because of his short stature and born color blindness, so he had to go to the security company as a security guard. Security supervisor Chow Shih Cheong is an old fritter, who is bitter and mean, greedy for life and afraid of death. His subordinate Ah Sam looked at him unpleasantly in the morning, but he had nowhere to redress his grievances. This time, the company's crown prince Wang Pingfan came back from studying abroad and pretended to be a security guard to infiltrate the company to inspect the situation. Soon Ah Sam and Deng Xiaolong were promoted for their excellent work, but Zhou Shichang was deprived of the position of supervisor and demoted, and he could retire in a few months to enjoy it, will he endure this bad breath for the sake of his pension or will he have other plans? Next, it's important to get to the point. ā€

Lei Juewen slowly explained the general setting of the film, and then talked about the plot in it, and the latter is the focus.

After listening to it, Xu Guangwen said after a while: "I think Mr. Lei's script is very familiar to me. ā€

Lei Juewen didn't hide it, and said with a smile: "I have referred to this script in some places, so Mr. Xu feels a little familiar, and it is normal." ā€

"No wonder!"

Xu Guangwen nodded clearly, but he remembered the script he was conceiving, and he found that the script he was conceiving was still somewhat similar to the script Lei Juewen said, in this case, the script he was conceiving in his heart would have to be revoked, otherwise he would pick up people's teeth and plagiarize the script.

Lei Juewen said: "Don't hide it from Mr. Xu, after this script was conceived, I felt that it was very suitable for you to direct and play Mr. Xu, this is the type that Mr. Xu is good at." ā€

Xu Guangwen also likes the script of Modern Bodyguard very much, he wants to shoot it, but the script is not his, which makes him very regretful, and he has to consider whether to agree to Lei Juewen to lead and star in this film.

"Mr. Lei, please give me some time to think about it."

Lei Juewen said: "As long as it's not too long, I can still afford to wait for a few days." ā€

"No, it'll be fine for a while." Xu Guangwen said and pondered.

Seeing this, Lei Juewen didn't bother him, and sat quietly.

Xu Guangwen's consideration took more than ten minutes, and after more than ten minutes, Xu Guangwen said: "Mr. Lei, I've thought about it." ā€

Lei Juewen didn't say anything, just looked at Xu Guangwen.

Xu Guangwen said: "I am very grateful to Mr. Lei for his attention to me, but Xu's Pictures hasn't made a film for a long time, and I have to shoot a film for Xu's Films, I'm really sorry." Although the scripts that are already being conceived cannot be used, Xu Guangwen can completely conceive other scripts, anyway, the scripts of the films he shoots are all conceived by himself.

Lei Juewen didn't regret hearing it, and made a final effort and said: "Mr. Xu, I am willing to pay 1 million Hong Kong dollars to invite you to lead this film and play a role in the film, I don't know if Mr. Xu can think about it?" ā€

Xu Guangwen was stunned when he heard this, Lei Juewen was so generous, one million Hong Kong dollars was enough for him to shoot a film, but since he had made a decision, he would not change it easily, shook his head and said: "Thank you very much Mr. Lei for your attention, but I have decided to shoot the film myself, I'm sorry." He also has his own ideas, if he shoots his own film, he will definitely make more than one million Hong Kong dollars, he has this confidence, so he simply refused.

"It's a pity, I hope there will be a chance to cooperate with Mr. Xu next time."

Lei Juewen sighed, did not increase the price again, and was no longer reluctant. One million Hong Kong dollars is already his bottom line, and if it is more, it will not be cost-effective. Shoot by yourself or ask another director to shoot, even if the box office is not as high as Xu Guangwen's shooting, the price of more than one million Hong Kong dollars is too high, even if the box office becomes lower, it is acceptable.

"I think there's going to be a chance."

Xu Guangwen smiled apologetically, Lei Juewen was willing to invest millions of Hong Kong dollars to invite him, which shows the importance he attaches to him, which makes him very happy, but unfortunately he wants to shoot a film himself, and he doesn't want to have a crack in the cooperation with Golden Harvest, so he refuses.

When Lei Juewen and Xu Guangwen met, they talked about the cooperation of the film, but now that the talk has collapsed, the two chatted a few more words, and Lei Juewen said goodbye and left. (To be continued.) )
