Chapter 248: Bruce Lee's son

When Lu Yan officially looked at the several films that Debao Film Company had started to shoot before, he had to sigh that Dongcheng Imaging was indeed just a small independent production company. [Full text reading] (hand-typed novel) Although each movie is a very blockbuster, it is compared to the shooting scale of regular film companies. Perhaps the original Dongcheng Imaging was just a separate film studio belonging to Lu Yan

Dongcheng Imaging's film output this year is much better than that of a real studio. "God of Gamblers", "Rouge Buckle", as well as the filming of "The Saint of Gambling", "Mong Kok Carmen" and the upcoming "Yuan Zhenxia and Wesley".

Now that Dongcheng Imaging has officially merged with Debao Film Company, the output of the film needs to be strictly controlled by Lu Yan, the boss. Before that, Debao Film Company, because of the need for theaters. So if you want to make a movie, it's very easy for those directors. Even say an idea and get an answer.

But now, no

Whether it's for the script, the actors, or even the director...... The whole team, Lu Yan is extremely strict. Dongcheng Imaging Film Company adheres to the principle that it doesn't matter if the number of high-quality productions is small, but every movie must be the best on the premise that it can be filmed well.

In terms of administrative matters, Lu Yan is all handed over to Xian Qiran to deal with. And he himself has been paying attention to Xian Qiran.

"Conduct Zero Points", "Double Dragon Spit Pearl", "Crazy Me", "Brother", "Treasure Hunting Strategy" ...... The movies that have been released and will be released alone are many more than Dongcheng Films. And there are too many rookie directors under Debao Film Company. In Lu Yan's opinion, in fact, many people can't hook the name of director.

Because they are all talents in screenwriting, production, and so on, but they can also shoot. Because Debao Film Company needs it, most of them are all on the battlefield. However, since Lu Yan took over, he began to make drastic norms. If it's not particularly good, then you should settle down and do your job first

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

However, among these people, Er Dongsheng, who has just passed the file to work as a director at Debao Film Company, is not among them.

For Er Dongsheng, Lu Yan is no stranger. This director and Wong Kar-wai show that they have a fight. The style of filming movies between the two is very unusual. However, Er Dong was promoted to the industry, but he can be regarded as Lu Yan's predecessor. Because of his handsome appearance, he has always been a martial arts student of Shaw Brothers Film Company.

Because Shaw Brothers stopped production, Er Dongsheng returned to his free body. Although he was 28 years old at the time, he still kept making film appointments, and was immediately invited to Taiwan to shoot the martial arts drama "Feiyan and Dragon". But he believes that when an actor can't control his own development direction, he can only passively wait for a role that suits him, so he decided to transform.

Er Dongsheng's matter, Cen Jianxun deliberately explained it when he talked to Lu Yan.

"Er Dongsheng has never been an assistant director, so he has to be a director. Qin Pei (Er Dongsheng's brother) and my good friend have told me many times that Xiaobao is very talented. I read the script of "The True Story of the Crazy Guy", and I called it Xiao Baolai. I asked how I planned to shoot, and after talking a few times, I could shoot, but there were conditions.

He originally wanted to use all newcomers, but I said: No, look for actors and stars. As a result, Tony Leung and Chow Yun-fat each filmed a film, and their salaries were not as expensive as mine at that time. I told them: I don't have any money, 50,000 yuan, an actor, come if you like. I think this director wants to help, his first part, you think this role can be played, you can help. 50,000 yuan, without discrimination, I will also take 50,000 yuan.

At that time, I still remember Sanmao calling me and saying: You are now neurotic, you are deaf and dumb, and now you are going to shoot crazy people again.

Because I just asked Jiang David to shoot a "Can't Hear Talk", Qingyun's first play. I said you care about me. So Debao actually has some alternative things coming out, and you can pay attention to this aspect. I know you also like to shoot alternative things, they are all good seedlings As for "Life and Death", I was nervous myself, I don't act, and I can't sell it for that money back. If I act, Taiwan will have the money back immediately, otherwise who loves to watch this neurotic story? ”

In fact, even if Cen Jianxun didn't remind Lu Yan, he would have strongly supported Er Dongsheng. Xiaobao's movies have always been unique. This is of great help to the development of Hong Kong films, just like Wong Kar-wai's movies, Er Dongsheng's movies once made Lu Yan very obsessed.

What's more, now that "The True Story of the Crazy Guy" is already being filmed, Lu Yan will not let this movie have a difficult birth in the middle of the movie. For other movies being filmed, Lu Yan also treats them equally. Prior to this, he said that all the films shot by Debao Film Company could be shot smoothly.

This is to tell everyone that Dongcheng Imaging Film Company officially incorporated all the properties of Debao Film Company into its command

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Of course, Lu Yan also had to deny that Debao Film Company was indeed full of talents. From this aspect, it can also be seen that a large number of outstanding filmmakers have emerged as the golden age of Hong Kong films. Not to mention Cheng Xiaodong and Liu Weiqiang, who were originally Dongcheng Images, they are all all-round filmmakers, and many newcomers on the side of Debao Film Company are also proficient in everything. As long as he makes the best use of his resources and fulfills his duties, Lu Yan believes that he can build a brilliant film dynasty.

Just as Lu Yan was looking at the shooting plan originally formulated by Debao Film Company, the office door rang.

"Please come in"

"Words"

Hearing this familiar shout, Lu Yan raised his head and smiled when he saw the person coming: "Brother Sen, long time no see"

Gao Zhisen saw that Lu Yan actually got up and walked over, and he stepped forward and hugged him: "I really didn't expect that you kid would be mixed up, and now even Debao has been acquired." Haha......"

Gao Zhisen was originally a cadre of Xinyicheng, and became a blockbuster director for directing the "Happy Ghost" series. At the beginning of this year, it was poached by Debao with a high salary of one million. But in the end, it seems that Lu Yan was cheaper

The movie "Happy Ghost" was supposed to be directed by Lu Yan, but he finally shirked it because he promised Tsui Hark. It is precisely because of this that Huang Baiming began to use Gao Zhisen. And Gao Zhisen and Lu Yan were already very good friends before that. When the two old friends met again, they were somewhat out of shape.

"I didn't expect to call you boss now."

Seeing Gao Zhisen's appearance of a ghost horse, Lu Yan scolded with a smile: "You are less here in Debao, you can be regarded as very moisturized, "Infatuated Me" is very good."

In fact, many times, Lu Yan wondered if Gao Zhisen contributed to Jacky Cheung and Luo Meiwei. Because the two of them officially starred as a couple in this "Infatuated Me" directed by Gao Zhisen......

Hearing Lu Yan's words, Gao Zhisen smiled rhetorically: "How can you moisturize, the box office of "Rouge Buckle" suddenly overturned Director Tsui Hark......

"I won't be against you" Lu Yan waved his hand, and then said: "Sit, which movie are you making now?" ”

"You don't know?" Gao Zhisen suddenly raised his voice in surprise.

Lu Yan didn't know why, Nunu said: "I'm looking at Debao's shooting plan, I haven't finished reading it yet, it's a big production with great confidence?" ”

Now, it was Gao Zhisen's turn to look weird. But then, he was relieved: "That's right, you've been hiding all this time." And a lot of the outside world is your news, so it's normal not to pay attention to it."

Lu Yan, who heard this, looked very strange. Could it be that the movie you're making right now is heavily promoted?

Lu Yan's doubts, Gao Zhisen naturally saw it in his eyes. He smiled in a low voice: "You turn it yourself, it's called "Dragon in the Rivers and Lakes""

"Dragon in the Rivers and Lakes"?" Lu Yan shrugged his shoulders and really started to look for it.

When he found "Dragon in the Rivers and Lakes", he was stunned when he saw that the director was Yu Rentai. Looking at the producer again, I am relieved. No wonder he said that he was filming "Dragon in the Rivers and Lakes", it turned out that he joined forces with his old partner. A producer and a director can be regarded as a golden combination

However, when he saw the first name of the leading actor, Lu Yan was stunned.

He looked at the name again, and suddenly said in a somewhat strange voice: "Brother Sen, Li Guohao?" Bruce Lee's son, Li Guohao? ”

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Lu Yan stared at Gao Zhisen like this for a long time, looking incredulous. Gao Zhisen, actually brought Li Guohao?

Gao Zhisen was a little hairy by Lu Yan's staring, and said with a smile: "It is estimated that you don't know about the whole of Hong Kong, and it was quite a sensation when filming first started." In order for him to star in this movie, I talked to him several times in person. Even the name of the movie was changed after discussing with Yu Rentai. ”

Gao Zhisen was very proud, but Lu Yan was dumbfounded.

It's really Bruce Lee's son, Li Guohao

Hearing Gao Zhisen's words, Lu Yan groaned and asked, "Is it easy to shoot?" ”

Gao Zhisen shook his head and said with a wry smile: "After all, he is Bruce Lee's son, and his temper is a little stubborn, but he is about the same age as you." Once you've reached out, you'll know that he's actually very likable. I thought it would be more maverick, but after contacting it, I felt that people were quite honest and sensible. ”

"I want a script"

"What?"

"I want to read the script, do you have it?" Lu Yan suddenly looked at Gao Zhisen and asked for the script directly.

"Take it" Fortunately, Gao Zhisen was going to the set of "Dragon in the Rivers and Lakes", so he happened to have the script with him. Seeing Lu Yan's anxious look, he handed over the script with some laughter.

Without further ado, Lu Yan, who took over the script, immediately read it.

The whole story is about the heartless Guohao who mistakenly killed the policeman and was imprisoned for six years because he thought he was helping his friend Guo Bao. In fact, this is Guo Bao deliberately laying a trap to harm Guohao, and taking the opportunity to rape (harmony) and defile his girlfriend. After learning the truth, Guohao wanted to escape from prison to take revenge, but it didn't work. Six years later, Guo Bao took over his father's underworld business, and did even more evil, and the mature Guohao decided to brave the tiger's den to seek justice......

Gao Zhisen, who was originally looking forward to it, slowly noticed that Lu Yan's face was gradually getting worse.

"Smack"

Lu Yan suddenly pressed the script on the table, which startled Gao Zhisen.

"Which screenwriter wrote this? What the hell is it about? ”

Lu Yan's sudden anger suddenly made Gao Zhisen at a loss.

"I wrote the ...... with Feng Shixiong"

It turned out to be written by Gao Zhisen and Feng Shixiong together? Lu Yan frowned and looked at Gao Zhisen, and asked with a headache: "How is Li Guohao's acting skills?" ”

"General ......"

"What the hell is going on, to be clear."

Gao Zhisen couldn't figure it out, so he had to say with a bitter face: "Compared with other actors, it's really still relatively immature."

"Brother Sen, you are confused" Lu Yan put the script aside depressedly, pouted: "You originally wanted to use Li Guohao's identity as Bruce Lee's son to attract the audience's attention and the public's attention, right?" You also look at your own script, and I won't talk about clichés. It's simply, it's just shoddy, I really can't imagine that it was actually written by you and Brother Xiong. In the new art city, do you say that you can shoot yourself? ”

"No" Gao Zhisen shook his head decisively and explained: "I couldn't help it when I wrote this script, because Debao is very short of films, and you know it...... Coincidentally, Li Guohao came back to Hong Kong and intended to enter the film industry, so he just took this opportunity to ......"

"Stop filming, stop filming" Lu Yan shouted twice in a row before he finally said: "This movie is temporarily shelved." Or change the protagonist and make up the filming of Li Guohao's scene. I won't interfere with Debao's previous films. Even if it's a bad movie, it's fine, but Li Guohao can't be ruined like this. Look far away, O you...... When such a movie comes out, can he be popular? Once or twice, Hong Kong people get used to it. When the time comes, not only will it hurt him, but you will also have to make bad movies."

If the original trend is followed, it is indeed as Lu Yan expected. "Dragon in the Rivers and Lakes" is the debut novel of Bruce Lee's son Li Guohao returning to Hong Kong for development. It's a pity that the script is written in a cliché, and his own acting skills are too young, so he didn't become an instant hit. A few years later, he switched to Hollywood to make films, but he died unexpectedly when he was about to become popular, which is embarrassing.

Gao Zhisen never expected that Lu Yan actually asked to 'stop filming' after reading the script? Even if you change people to make up for the play, you can't use Li Guohao anymore?

"Yan Zai, this is not good, after all, it has been a long time since the start of work, and if Li Guohao's kid knows......" Gao Zhisen was stunned, but still said: "It's a big deal, it's a big deal, let's revise the script." Some shots, re-shoot...... Or, do you go to the set first? Come back and look at the captured footage? ”

(Free) PS: I'm very entangled now, what movie should Li Guohao make? I beg everyone to give advice together, after all, he is Brother Long's son, of course, he can't be allowed to make a bad movie. But like Xue is now suffering from oxygen in her brain, and she really has no clue. Let's give advice on speed

Like snow hit small like MJ, today is 6.25. If Beijing time is concerned, tomorrow will be MJ's 2nd anniversary. Remember in advance the eternal MJ and eternal king of this world-class superstar
