Chapter 249: The Old General is in the same city
"Well, I'll go to the set with you later. Lu Yan nodded, naturally understanding that if he denied the works that had been filmed for a long time, it would probably be maddening. What's more, Lu Yan just now criticized Gao Zhisen mercilessly. If you don't even agree to this request, it will be too shameless.
As he spoke, Lu Yan's originally tense face also smiled again: "Brother Sen, then again, I wondered. It stands to reason that your script isn't just that."
"There's no way, the company is in a hurry to get a film, and it's said that it's very lacking." Gao Zhisen was also quite helpless, at least the script he wrote made Lu Yan so criticized.
Seeing Gao Zhisen's helpless face, Lu Yan could understand it to some extent. There is no way to sign a contract and get paid. Since Debao wants a script, he wants a film. Even if they are not inspired, they can only change the old routine. If the protagonist of this movie was not Li Guohao, Lu Yan would not say much. But the protagonist of this movie is Bruce Lee's son. Well, as a good star-making model. Such a movie is undoubtedly indirectly ruining Li Guohao
Since he bumped into Lu Yan's hands, of course he would not let the original historical tragedy be caused again. Whether it's from a business point of view, or from a psychological level. For Li Guohao, Lu Yan wants to rebuild him
As the son of Bruce Lee, his debut work is bound to attract much attention. It's no wonder that when he said that he didn't know what movie Gao Zhisen was filming, the other party showed such a surprised expression. After all, Li Guohao's debut novel has already caused an uproar in Hong Kong*.
It's just that this movie is really bad. Whether it is from the perspective of the script, the cast or Gao Zhisen's current shooting mentality, "Dragon in the Rivers and Lakes" will inevitably not succeed. And Li Guohao will definitely not become popular. In this way, it is a great test for Li Guohao's commercial value
What's more, he is Bruce Lee's son Lu Yan's admiration for Bruce Lee, so naturally there is no reason to say. Since it was his son who played the role, then it was reasonable for Lu Yan to give the greatest help

"Brother Sen, what was the impression that Debao gave you?"
Lu Yan suddenly asked Gao Zhisen this question with a leap of thought, which made Gao Zhisen stunned again. But immediately, Gao Zhisen understood that Lu Yan wanted to understand Debao's original situation to facilitate management, so he said: "Chaos"
"Chaos?" Lu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then reacted and said, "Let's talk about it, what's the mess?" ”
"You don't know, we didn't know that it was so messy until we came to Debao. The internal political issues faced also feel very complicated. Because Debao is led by one person, that is, Cen Jianxun. Cen Jianxun didn't know what to think of the three of us (Gao Zhisen, Yu Rentai, Feng Shixiong) coming. Sometimes when he was fighting with Pan Disheng, he even launched a strike and asked the three of us if we wanted to join the lockout? What should I do? I had to call Pan Disheng and ask if I could come to your house to discuss something, and then we went up. "Cen Jianxun told us to stop work, what do you think we should do?" Pan Disheng thought for a moment: "Okay, for your sake, you should also stop." "He told us to stop work, and we stopped the film without notice, and then they agreed that we would continue filming." Thinking of the last work stoppage, Gao Zhisen still laughed a little and said: "You say that the boss and the manager are not messing around, and we can only follow the fool." Is this a movie, it is the same as the struggle for power...... Because of this, there would have been no good movies at all, if it weren't for the sudden merger of Dongcheng Imaging and Debao, and you would have been the manager. Atay and I may be ready to resign and leave......"
"Poof" Lu Yan, who heard this, was dumbfounded, and then looked at Gao Zhisen curiously and asked: "Actually, I wondered at that time, you don't stay in the new art city." What are you doing here at Debao? If you can't do it again, you can go to me, although Dongcheng Imaging has a small business. Leave you alone, it's still no problem, right? ”
As soon as he heard this, Gao Zhisen said energetically: "Don't say it, if there is no such thing." Ah Tai and I are about to go to your place, as for the ...... of Xinyicheng," Gao Zhisen himself laughed first and said, "Xinyicheng, you also know." Although I am a director, not all of them are decided by the producer, and Xinyicheng has a lot of talents, especially for movies. There are a lot of things to experience, but experience somehow becomes a burden. You should know no less about this than I do, otherwise, you wouldn't have followed Director Tsui Hark to set up another studio in the first place
The best thing about Debao is Pan Disheng's heart, he has a big heart for movies and doesn't have so many restrictions. For example, in "Rich and Powerful", I mentioned twice in Xinyi City that the boss should not shoot it, and the theory is that what the audience wants to see is beauty. That actor is the most beautiful, that scene is the most beautiful, the costumes are the most gorgeous, it is a "beautiful shirt film", and this "Rich and Powerful" is a "bad shirt film", it is about small things, don't mention it, no one watches it.
I got Debaolai, the boss didn't ask at all, just said what you want to shoot, I said that the little citizen won the ** color fortune, talk about the difference between them before and after. The boss said you can shoot if you like, and then asked me what actor I wanted? I said that the actors are not important, because they are all small people, and the audience must find them cute, don't think they are eight aunts and eight wives, and don't be disgusted. So the two I chose are both TV actors, one is Shen Dianxia and the other is Dong Bi, Dong Bi is not an actor yet, he talks about the Book of Horses, and their image is a small citizen, very cute. "Rich and Powerful" is the subject of my heart, I lived in a low-rent house when I was 11 or 12 years old, and I stayed in it for more than ten years, I am too familiar with those people, who changed a color TV today, and every house had to change it in less than two weeks, everyone was comparing, very funny. At that time, the poor were very concerned about the face outside, but if you really have money, tens of millions, hide it and don't tell others, for fear that others will borrow money from you, or even kidnap you, so I will shoot this. ”

Listening to Gao Zhisen's eloquent words, Lu Yancai gave a thumbs up and said: "If you really say that you will jump, you will jump, so you are not afraid of failure?" ”
However, Gao Zhisen jumped from Xinyi City to Debao, and Lu Yan also understood. After all, Xinyicheng is the world of the Big Three, and the producer is king. Directors like Gao Zhisen and others really have nothing to play. And as he himself said, if his "Rich and Powerful" Xinyicheng is willing to shoot, maybe he won't leave...... Thinking about it this way, it really looks like he left because of the "True Colors of Heroes" back then.
What's more, Debao has always been short of films, and as soon as you come over and talk about the theme, the boss is willing to shoot. Such a beautiful thing, of course, Gao Zhisen and they can't ask for it. And there are several movies in the "Happy Ghost" series to support him, and the remuneration is also very expensive
When Gao Zhisen heard Lu Yan's words, he couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "I'm not afraid of failure? I'm terrible, but the price given by Debao is good, and it is also a loss to have the name of "Happy Ghost...... Having said that, you are really bloody, you went out to do it yourself with the script, and you dragged the strong boy away. Make an image of the East Side prosperous...... At the beginning, we were not optimistic about the cast of "The True Color of Heroes". Boss Huang has told me several times, but I didn't expect you to shoot it. It is still the box office record holder...... It is estimated that Boss Mai regrets their death"
"How can there be so many distractions, just make a good movie with your heart." Lu Yan was relieved about this matter a long time ago: "At that time, I was young and vigorous, but now I look back and think about it, it is still a very reckless move."
"Hehe, ripe now?" Gao Zhisen asked with a smile and sighed: "But then again, your production concept is indeed very correct for you." That's the classic good movie mode, shooting different types of movies with great care. Moreover, they have successfully conquered the audience, but for a film company, it is necessary to give newcomers a lot of opportunities. They're still fumbling ......"
Lu Yan can be regarded as hearing it, Gao Zhisen is clearly interceding for Yu Rentai and his "Dragon in the Rivers and Lakes".
"Brother Sen, don't deliberately go around in circles with me, I won't say much else, I really need to think about this movie...... After all, the stakes are high," said Lu Yan stood up again, picked up the script on the table and handed it to Gao Zhisen and said: "Let's go with you to the set to have a look, I also happened to meet this Li Guohao, I am very interested in him"
"Then let's go"
Looking at Lu Yan's excited look, Gao Zhisen smiled noncommittally. The current Lu Yan is really like those entertainment reporters at the beginning. As soon as they heard that it was Bruce Lee's son, they all flocked to the set of "Dragon in the Rivers and Lakes". Now that the shooting is day after day, their popularity is slowly decreasing.

The staff were stunned when they saw Gao Zhisen and Lu Yan walking out of the office together, and then they all reacted. Gao Zhisen and Lu Yan used to be veterans of Xinyicheng, and the relationship between the two is naturally unusual.
It is no wonder that many old people in Debao Film Company are worried, after all, there are many veterans of New Art City in Debao Film Company. If Lu Yan looked at them differently, it would indicate that he would lack a lot of opportunities
How could they have thought that Lu Yan was going to review "Dragon in the Rivers and Lakes".
