When You Hai handed over the script to Xiao Ran, it was already a month later. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Xiao Ran really doesn't have anything to say about the script written by You Hai, the screenwriter, the only sentence is good! In order to determine the quality of the script, Xiao Ran still handed it over to Wei Jiahui, the ancestor of the screenwriter in his mind, for review, and after Wei Jiahui listened to Xiao Ran's creativity, he was only shocked.

Now he thinks that he finally understands why Galaxy Imaging can create so many classic works, it is because of the existence of Wei Jiahui and You Hai, Wei Jiahui plays the role of script decision-making in Galaxy, without the two of them, it is absolutely impossible to have some classics known for their plots.

In history, Hong Kong, a place that attaches great importance to scripts, can have such two talented screenwriters, which is really unimaginable. Just looking at the endless new screenwriters in the film industry today, Xiao Ran knows how many talents the Hong Kong film industry has lost in history.

Fortunately, because of his appearance, everything has changed, and in recent years, there are now more than 90,000 film practitioners working with the Hong Kong film industry, at least three times higher than in history, and the number of films produced every year exceeded 200 as early as last year.

The planning department was soon stunned by Xiao Ran's script, and no one could understand what the story was trying to tell. In the end, considering Xiao Ran's international directorship, he soon decided to start the play. After communicating with the producer, Xiao Ran finally changed the film, which was originally positioned as an experimental film, to take the route of commercial and artistic balance.

This is Xiao Ran's gamble, what he is gambling on is very simple, and in his conception, there are a lot of plots in the film that he can control the commercial elements. He wants to bet on whether he will be able to climb to the level that any director aspires to achieve - the balance between business and art after he has truly become a powerful international famous director after he has achieved the skills of "True Colors".

He knows that this is not easy to do, and some directors can only direct commercial films without significant results all their lives, just to direct a blockbuster commercial film. A director who does not have a certain strength can't even think of integrating business and literature and art.

Even directors like Xu Ke and Wu Yusen, who have reached the master level, may not dare to try such things easily, although they can do it sometimes, but they can do it if they really don't want to.

It's like Xiao Ran's directorial works over the years have been super-blockbusters, if he wasn't familiar with and understood the more compact techniques of the future, and turned them into his own, he would definitely not be able to do it.

There is only a thin line between business and art, but it is often this tightrope that you cannot cross and climb that peak. Business and art are completely interconnected, and the key is whether people can find that subtle point of commonality, just as Lao Si mastered this point in "Saving Private Ryan".

Xiao Ran is very eager to win Cannes again with his own strength, and he is also very eager to win Best Director again. The most important thing is that he knows very well that if nothing else, at most after the 1998 Academy Awards, he will go to the day he thought about with Lin Qingxia.

Now that you have let go of your dreams and ideals, it may be time to let your heart go! In Xiao Ran's heart, whether it is Murdoch or the Six King Kongs, they are not as important as this, not only because they can't threaten the Phantom, but also because Xiao Ran knows deeply that if he doesn't go all out, he will regret it for the rest of his life.

Regarding this film, Xiao Ran selected the behind-the-scenes team with an unprecedented cautious attitude. In fact, there is nothing to choose, basically they are all picked out from the team used by Xiao Ran. And the teams that Xiao Ran used before have now become first-class powerhouses in their respective fields, and they all have work to do.

However, it was not easy for the planning department to adjust the shooting schedule and coordinate the time to be seconded to Xiao Ran. This film, temporarily named "Reincarnation", has an investment of 80 million, which can only be regarded as a medium-sized production film.

Finally came to February 19, 1997, which made Xiao Ran very scared, in history, the chief died on this day. Xiao Ran, who has seen the chief twice, knows one thing very well, sometimes history is not always boasting, after all, the chief is very capable, otherwise why would he bring a poor China to the future.

According to some of the future political patterns and future developments indirectly pointed out by Xiao Ran, the chief has done a lot in the past few years, so that some things that originally happened no longer exist. And on this day, when Xiao Ran got up, he even found that his eyes were a little red.

"What's wrong with you?" Lin Qingxia was the first to notice Xiao Ran's uncertainty, and she even found that Xiao Ran hadn't had such a look in the past few years: "Tell me if you have anything on your mind, don't always hide it in your heart." ”

Xiao Ran reluctantly smiled and shook his head, could he say such a thing? I still went to the company uneasy, and in the office, I couldn't do any work. I tried to calm my emotions, and I couldn't stop myself if I wanted to come, so I barely comforted myself.

However, the more he didn't want it to happen, it finally happened, and the secretary's voice reached Xiao Ran's ears with a beep: "Mr. Xiao, Mr. Huang Qun from Yanjing is calling." ”

Huang Qun called! Xiao Ran's face changed greatly, and his mind was suddenly confused, what else could Huang Qun call for at this time. Thinking about how much humiliation China will suffer in the future and what path it will take to lose that wise old man, Xiao Ran feels pain.

"Xiao Ran, come to Yanjing......" Hearing this, Xiao Ran was already taking a deep breath to prepare for that bad news. However, Huang Qun's words made him stunned: "The chief is sick, he wants to see you once!" ”

Didn't happen? Ha ha! Xiao Ran couldn't help but laugh out loud, laughing so much that Huang Qun over there was inexplicable. Xiao Ran laughed so much that tears were about to fall, he found that he was really stupid, since history has changed so much, and the chief can survive, there is no surprise!

In the afternoon, Xiao Ran's private plane landed at Yanjing International Airport, and as soon as he got off the plane, he saw Huang Qun greeted him with an anxious expression: "You are finally here, the chief has been thinking about seeing you today!" ”

"The chief's illness ......" Xiao Ran hesitated for a moment, got into the red flag car and asked the following words: "His illness is nothing!" ”

"It's hard to say, maybe it can hold on, maybe it's ......" Huang Qun shook his head slightly and sighed: "I hope I can persevere, I hope he can see the return of Hong Kong!" ”

Coming to the hospital, the sun and the monkeys were blocked outside, and Xiao Ran went through several layers of vigilance before coming to the ward. Huang Qun nodded to Xiao Ran, Xiao Ran gave him a look and asked him if he didn't go in? Huang Qun shook his head.

Xiao Ran pushed open the door as much as possible to avoid making a sound, this ward is quite large, and most of it is full of instruments, as well as the chief's relatives. The chief seemed to be saying something to his relatives, and when he saw Xiao Ran coming, he waved his hand and motioned for his family to go out.

"Chief, I'm here, what do you want to tell me?" Xiao Ran carefully lowered his voice, he wasn't afraid of anything, he just didn't want to disturb the respectable old man too much: "Your condition ......"

"When you are old, you are sick!" The chief's words with strong local characteristics made Xiao Ran feel very familiar, his condition did not look very serious, and his face was not bad: "You are a smart person and the pride of the Chinese." But now that you're rich, don't forget your roots! ”

"No, I will do my best to help the country! If the state is willing to accept it, then I am even willing to donate half of my family property! Xiao Ran looked at the old man sincerely and said that he was not talking empty words, as long as he could maintain the operation of the entertainment and media industry, it didn't matter if everything else was given to the country, at least he still remembered that he grew up under the red flag.

The chief coughed twice, showed a funny look, and said slowly: "What does the state want your money for, do you still think that we are really communists." I have brought you from Hong Kong this time to talk to you about the future. I don't know if you're speculating on those things, but now it seems that most of them happened. ”

Looking at the chief's meaningful expression, Xiao Ran broke out in a cold sweat, if it wasn't for his composure and strong enough, he was afraid that his face would be gray. However, the chief obviously saw Xiao Ran's panic and comforted: "Regarding your report, I read it, you are very smart, it is normal to be able to guess!" Don't worry, we welcome such speculation. ”

Xiao Ran's heart, which was beating wildly, gradually calmed down, if the chief had to make something about this, he was afraid that he would ...... However, he soon realized that he had said a lot of things indirectly at that time. And now, a small part of it has not happened, which makes the chief think that he is speculating, instead of ...... "Have you ever thought about being a ......" The chief smiled happily, as if he had already seen through Xiao Ran: "Have you ever thought about being the chief executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region!" ”

Xiao Ran trembled, looking at the chief's smiling face in disbelief. All of a sudden, my mind was all messed up. He Xiao Ran could pat his chest and say that he had never thought about being the head of the SAR, it was not a question of doing or not doing, but he had never thought that he was qualified to be the head of the SAR.

Chief of the Special Administrative Region! That's a feudal official! It's a pity that Xiao Ran was not interested in this at all, and quickly regained his composure after a slight shock: "Chief, do you think it is necessary for me to be the chief executive of the special administrative region?" ”

In fact, there is no one in Hong Kong who thinks that Xiao Ran will be the first chief executive of Hong Kong, although many media believe that Xiao Ran is the most suitable. Moreover, if the main team of the Phantom Group is brought to the political axe, it will be a perfect team. But obviously no one thinks that Xiao Ran will do this, first of all, he is not old enough, and secondly, he is the richest man in the world, and he is the governor of the Special Administrative Region, what's wrong?

"Yes!" The chief sighed slightly, and said to Xiao Ran: "The first time I saw you, I saw that you had a thorough understanding of various political and economic situations, so I thought that it would be better for you to take the post of chief executive." It's a pity that you're not yet forty years old, and besides, your business is getting bigger and bigger, and you definitely don't want to be the head of this special zone. Isn't that so, King of the Xiangjiang! ”

The King of Hong Kong! Xiao Ran's face immediately turned extremely pale. The so-called King of Xiangjiang is actually just a joke, which is at a banquet, Li Ka-shing's joking name for Xiao Ran. The next day, the media published the news with absolute front-page headlines, and it was an exaggeration that Time magazine even marked this joke on the issue of the magazine with Xiao Ran as the cover.

What does that mean? What else can the chief mean when he says this, naturally it is very unpleasant about it! Xiao Ran smiled miserably, and there was a sense of death: "Chief, you know that it's just a joke, and I have never thought of doing anything called the king of the Xiangjiang River!" ”

The chief sighed softly, staring at Xiao Ran's absolutely stubborn, unconvinced and sincere gaze for a long time before saying, "Of course, that is a joke, but it is already an ironclad fact!" ”

Xiao Ran suddenly smiled bitterly, of course he enjoyed power and liked the feeling of indulging everything. However, this definitely does not mean that he wants to get involved in politics, which is something that people can never get out of.

It's just that what the chief said is completely true, and the current governor of Hong Kong doesn't say that he is submissive to Xiao Ran, but he is definitely quite respectful to Xiao Ran, and he doesn't dare to offend him in the slightest. And the director of the security department or something, when he sees Xiao Ran, he has to call Brother Ran respectfully.

The white way is completely submissive, but what about the underworld? It is no exaggeration to say that as long as the central government agrees and Xiao Ran is willing, he can even instruct hundreds of thousands of gangsters in Hong Kong to riot at any time. In terms of ordinary citizens, Siu Ran's reputation is also rising, and he is definitely the most influential power person in Hong Kong.

Xiao Ran fully understands that an earth emperor like this will definitely not reassure the country. However, he doesn't want to do this, controlling the underworld is a last resort, and if you don't control it, there will be problems, not that he covets this bit of power. If Liang Kun was willing to directly propose to Xiao Ran to control the underworld, and it was not conducive to doing something, then Xiao Ran would definitely nod and agree.

Therefore, to say that Xiao Ran is the king of Xiangjiang is definitely not a lie. Seeing that Xiao Ran didn't speak for a long time, the chief finally spoke again: "The reputation in society is something you have gained by yourself by being enthusiastic about public welfare, which is a good thing." It's just this underworld ......"

Xiao Ran sighed heavily: "Chief, because of Hong Kong's geographical environment and various reasons, the underworld cannot be eradicated, and even the mainland will soon breed the underworld." Instead of blindly using the strong, it is better to control them in your hands, avoid them from doing too much harm, and try to reduce their power. As the ancients said, blocking is better than sparse, and sparse is better than guiding. ”

The chief closed his eyes and thought quietly, Xiao Ran was no longer afraid now, because he knew very well that as the richest man in the world, he would not be in any danger, and his previous fear was purely because of the pressure of the chief.
