Chapter 188: Visiting the Troupe

Xiao Ran was shocked, and almost jumped three feet high. Ming Xuan is the company run by Xiao Shaohao, which was originally engaged in trade, but later Xiao Ran invested 200 million yuan in his personal name, so he simply switched to real estate.

almost went bankrupt, which means that the 200 million invested by Xiao Ran almost melted into water, and the 150 million million of the Tianxia Fund was almost gone. But what's going on with all this? Is there still someone in Hong Kong who doesn't know that Xiao Shaohao is Xiao Ran's son?

After asking, Xiao Ran realized that his father had fallen for the so-called inside information. It's just that the inside information that Xiao Shaohao received came from the planning department of the political axe, saying that the political axe would develop a certain area, but after Xiao Shaohao weighed it, he decided to invest in one of the pieces of land desperately.

Two days ago, at the auction house, there were many buyers on the land, and the price was inflated quite high. In the end, he was finally photographed by Xiao Shaohao, but today he received the wind, and the political axe did not have a so-called development plan from the beginning, he was framed.

In the afternoon, the price of the land immediately collapsed, and the bank got the news and immediately sent people to the door to collect the loan. To put it simply, if Ming Xuan can't repay the loan within a month, then immediately apply to the political axe for a seizure order. But Mingxuan's money was used to buy land, where is there any money to repay the loan.

Traps, definitely traps! Now Xiao Ran is no longer the fool who didn't know anything about business, when he listened to his father's story, his first instinct told him that this was definitely a conspiracy.

However, he didn't plan to tell his father, he had already mentioned retirement to his father. But my father insisted on continuing to run the company, which made Xiao Ran unable to persuade him, this time it was exactly what Xiao Ran wanted, wouldn't it be good to take the opportunity to ask my father to retire?

"Don't lie to me, I know I've fallen for someone else's trick!" Liang Shaohao's expression was very gloomy, he didn't expect that he would finally be planted in the mall.

In fact, Xiao Shaohao was not suitable for running such a large enterprise according to his surname, besides, he did not come up step by step, but with the help of Xiao Ran, he naturally had a lot of experience in the middle, and it was normal to be cheated by others.

Xiao Ran was slightly stunned, and couldn't help sighing: "How much does Ming Xuan owe to the bank?" It's better to take this opportunity to stop and rest. Tell me the rest, and I'll help you deal with him!" ”

"Ming Xuan owes 500 million to South Korea's Friends Bank!" Xiao Shaohao smiled bitterly, he had never earned 500 million in his life, and he didn't expect to lose hundreds of millions in less than a few days: "I want to retire, don't talk about it, go and send soup to Qingxia." ”

Xiao Ran nodded and stood up, took the soup in her mother's hand, and drove the car to the set. Lin Qingxia has to stay up late to film today, and her mother is afraid that she will be tired of her daughter-in-law, so she always finds time to send her soup. Since Xiao Ran is free today, of course this sacred task has to be handed over to him.

However, this time I went to the Axe Mountain Road studio, Shao Laoliu was very dissatisfied with Xiao Ran because of ATV's affairs, and rented his studio for filming, Xiao Ran was afraid that something would leak. Golden Harvest is different, Golden Harvest is at least mainly based on movies, unlike Shaw Brothers, who mainly focus on TV, and dare not care about the opinion of the phantom.

This film is "Three Heroes of the East", and the background of the film is virtual and real, which not only gives people a sense of reality, but also makes people feel that it is a virtual background. This situation is like the original film that alluded to Yanjing, but the box office of that film was not very good.

Xiao Ran has always been very confused about this "Three Heroes of the East", and Du Qifeng's work in history was released in 1993. At that time, Zhang Manyu, Aunt Mei and Yang Ziqiong in this film were all very popular, but the box office was less than two million, which was really unimaginable.

Not to mention the three beauties starring with great box office appeal, Du Qifeng at that time had already gained a lot of fame because of "Ah Lang's Story" and "The Judge of the Dead". With Adu's appeal, it should definitely not be only two million box office. If the box office of this film is 20 million, it is still worth believing.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ran immediately remembered the same Adu's 1993 film "Barefoot Kid", this film has Wu Qianlian and Guo Fucheng, although the style is very strong, but the rivers and lakes depicted in that film can be called a classic.

However, with Guo Tianwang's box office appeal and Wu Qianlian's appeal, the box office of this film turned out to be the bottom work in 1993, with a box office of only 200,000. Xiao Ran couldn't believe this result, but he had the impression that every data was indeed like this, so he couldn't believe it. Of course, in addition to not believing it, Xiao Ran was full of confusion about the real box office of these two films.

In Xiao Ran's impression, Adu's two works are excellent, but they have rarely been mentioned except for some senior fans who remember them. "Three Heroes of the East" can be described as a very fantastical film, and at the same time, it is also a masterpiece that created a martial arts with a female surname in Hong Kong, and it is a film worth paying attention to.

And "Barefoot Kid" is also very remarkable, this film is not as atmospheric as "Three Heroes of the East" in terms of meaning. However, with You Hai, a genius screenwriter, careful layout and detailed description, coupled with Adu's strong control, this film presents a very sad meaning, which is also a film that makes people feel cold about life. Xiao Ran even watched it only once, and then didn't dare to watch it again, because he was afraid that he would lose confidence in society.

The former's ethereal and creative action scenes are extremely atmospheric, especially in terms of rhythm and emotion, and the control is especially impressive. On the latter, Xiao Ran was most impressed by the sentence that he would launch a few carts of gold in the film, shouting to kill him with a semi-crazy look, and the scene at the end where Guo Tianwang couldn't wear shoes anyway before he died.

Strictly speaking, judging by Xiao Ran's own vision, "Three Heroes of the East" is very likely to get a good box office. After all, after "Dark Flower" and many subsequent films based on personal style, the audience's receptivity has become much stronger, which indirectly allowed Xiao Ran to guide the market, which is the reason why he decided to start filming this film.

The key is "Barefoot Kid", to be honest, Xiao Ran really didn't dare to have any hope for this film. This film is too evil and treacherous, especially the naked betrayal, tearing and conspiracy in the film, anyone can watch it and feel cold.

If you can, it's better to change the background, then maybe there is some future. Otherwise, with such a plot of this film, there is basically a 90% chance of losing money. Xiao Ran doesn't care about losing money, but this must play a certain role, for example, you can win a prize or something.

Xiao Ran thought that if the background of this film was changed to modern times, it would definitely not be impossible to win the award in Cannes. Thinking of this, he suddenly thought of his father's affair again, and there was anger in his heart. He doesn't know who designed Daddy, but if he does, that guy won't end well.

Thinking about it, I came to the set, the staff obviously had just started work, maybe it was filming a scene, and the director was thinking about how to shoot the next scene, so he was resting now. Xiao Ran greeted the staff with a smile, and saw Zhang Manyu walking forward with a smile: "I really love my wife, I still send soup so late!" ”

"Drink yours, so much nonsense!" Xiao Ran put the pot of soup on the table, and then came to Lin Qingxia. The makeup artist was touching up Lin Qingxia's makeup, and when Lin Qingxia saw Xiao Ran coming, she glanced over from the corner of her eye and smiled: "Why do you have time to come!" ”

"Come and see if your wife is free!" Xiao Ran smiled lightly: "By the way, I'll go over first, and I'll talk to you later!" ”

Adu is now thinking about how to shoot the next scene, and he doesn't even know that Xiao Ran is coming. It wasn't until Xiao Ran sat down on the chair and called softly that he woke up: "Brother Ran, you're here!" It just so happened that you came at the right time. Now I'm wondering, can the special effects team really do a good job? ”

"Theoretically, it's fine!" Xiao Ran shrugged his shoulders, now Hong Kong film directors are not very used to special effects, especially trendy things like computer special effects: "They will tell you where to use special effects, and you need to tell them what is the concept and what to do." By the end of the day, you'll know that they can actually do a lot! In the future, computer special effects will be able to help us do a lot of things that humans can't, and we will have to try to accept it. ”

Adu nodded thoughtfully, and then frowned tightly: "Brother Ran, do you think this film is a bit weird, it seems to be happening in the same parallel world as us!" Also, in terms of scenes, photography, and art, I think the style you're talking about is probably ......."

Xiao Ran couldn't help but laugh, this film is really not easy to do. However, this is obviously not his purpose, his purpose is to build "Three Heroes of the East" into a series. For this reason, he has even asked Shuxiang's publishing house to start looking for someone to make this comic. People are comics adapted into movies, and he is movies adapted into comics.

For this reason, he specifically instructed screenwriter Shao Liqiong to leave clues, such as the nuclear explosion was not mentioned in the first episode, but in the second episode, there was a background of water shortage due to nuclear explosion, which is Xiao Ran's unacceptable bug. This is a common problem in Hong Kong film scripts, as long as the script is a hit, regardless of whether the plot has anything to do with it or not, changing the characters to those ones will still be regarded as a sequel.

The only thing that puzzles Xiao Ran is whether he should let this film evolve into the previous style. It's mainly a very depressing style, which I'm afraid the audience will find it hard to like. It's just that he thought that if this film was to be changed into a series like "Spider-Man", he had to make the film more commercial, so he had to abandon the black style.

"No problem, this is a commercial film, as long as the corresponding commercial elements are maintained and the style is not very extreme, there will be no problem!" Xiao Ran understood what Adu meant, and immediately comforted.

Sweeping his eyes and seeing that Lin Qingxia had put on makeup, Xiao Ran walked over with a smile, pulled her into the corner and said with a sinking face: "Dad's company was designed today, and tomorrow I will find out who did it, and he dared to step on my head!" However, in this way, there may not be much time to accompany you in the next days! ”

"Dad's company was designed?" Lin Qingxia was also taken aback, but she was immediately relieved, after all, the company didn't interfere with it: "It's okay, I can take care of myself, you just need to help your father avenge this." ”

Xiao Ran nodded, glanced back, and immediately shouted: "Is there any mistake, you guys actually drank all the soup I brought!" ”

Lin Qingxia was stunned for a moment, and when she looked around, she saw a group of staff members giggling and scattering. Xiao Ran hurriedly chased out, but saw that there was still a little left inside, so he hurriedly ordered his wife to drink it, so as not to be looted by the gang of robbers.

At this time, Xiao Ran glanced at it and was suddenly shocked that he saw an old actor who was very familiar on the screen here-Ren Shiguan. This actor is very remarkable, born as a martial artist, he entered the industry in the 70s, and he also participated in Cheng Long's "Dragon and Tiger Leap".

However, after that, his career as an actor was not very good, until he took over "Huang Feihong" and played the role in it that is difficult to say whether he is a decent or a villain, and then became one of Xu Ke's royal actors. It's a pity that Ren Shiguan rarely has a time to be the protagonist, and such a powerful action actor gradually disappeared because of the decline of action movies.

Ren Shiguan squatted in a corner smoking a cigarette, this was the first time he had joined the Phantom Company, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous, and he was not that kind of noisy person. Xiao Ran walked up to him and squatted down and asked, "What's your name?" ”

"Mr. Xiao, my name is Ren Shiguan, and I am a martial artist!" Mr. Ren had heard that people in the circle said that Xiao Ran was a friend enough, but he didn't expect that with Xiao Ran's net worth of tens of billions, he would squat down side by side with him like this, and he was very flattered and wanted to stand up.

Xiao Ran smiled and waved his hand, motioning for him to squat down, and then deliberately pretended to be puzzled and asked: "Look at your image and body shape, are you a martial artist or an actor this time?" ”

"I'm playing a role in the film, and at the same time making a cameo appearance as a martial artist!" Master Ren glanced at Xiao Ran, thinking to himself that you haven't done it, of course you don't know the bitterness. suddenly realized that Xiao Ran started as a script, and then realized that Xiao Ran was not that kind of son, and he was ashamed.

"Well, I think you're pretty good." Xiao Ranxu shook his head regretfully, in fact, Ren Shiguan relied too much on his identity as a martial artist, otherwise, if he was willing to study his acting skills, he might not be filmed later: "If you have time to study more about how to act, Xu Ke will start a play after a while, and I will ask him to find you as the main role." ”

Officer Ren was stunned, looking at Xiao Ran's distant back, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. Acting, such a seemingly profound thing doesn't seem to be something he can grasp. However, he was still refreshed, since Xiao Ran said so, there must be hope. Moreover, according to insiders, Xiao Ran does not pay attention to the appearance of the actor, but to the acting skills. He thought it might be time for him to think about it......
