Tsui Hark's words sounded in Lu Yan's ears like a thunderbolt, and he said with a dull "ah" in his eyes: "Director, are you going to Taiwan too?" ”

As soon as the words came out, Lu Yan waved his hand awkwardly to show that he didn't mean that.

However, Tsui Hark obviously didn't care, and his expression was still solemn: "Ah Yan, I'll tell you seriously." As for the reasons for this, I think you know. After speaking, he suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly: "If you really can't get along by then, it's not impossible to go to Taiwan." ”

Of course, Lu Yan knows the reason. followed Tsui Hark and already made a movie, and I saw his arguments with Huang Baiming and his helpless expression almost every day.

As a director, it's obviously painful not to be able to direct the movies you want. Of course, there are also disputes over interests. Zeng Zhiwei left Xinyi City, why didn't there be a reason for this!

has made so many blockbuster films, and "New Art City" has indeed made a lot of money for the investor "Golden Princess". But how exactly are the profits distributed? As we all know, today's "New Art City" is helmed by the three giants of Mai Jia, Shi Tian, and Huang Baiming, but their "spoils" are actually uneven. Because at that time, the three of them discussed with Boss Lei of the "Golden Princess" like this: Huang Baiming accounted for 9% of the equity of Xinyicheng, Shi Tian accounted for 19%, and Princess Jin and Mai Jiahe accounted for 72%. Of the 72% shares, Princess Jin accounts for 51% and Mai Jia accounts for 49%. In other words, among the "Big Three", Mai Jia took the lion's share. Moreover, this uneven "distribution of spoils" also laid the groundwork for the later disintegration of Xinyicheng.

Even the three giants alone have not been 'sharing the spoils' for a long time, not to mention the 'seven monsters' that have developed!

Regarding Tsui Hark's jokes, Lu Yan didn't take it seriously. But he really couldn't figure out why Tsui Hark would choose this time and place to tell him about it, he was only a rather aura offspring at best. And he, Tsui Hark, has long been honored in Xiangjiang.

"Old Monster Xu, Yan Zai! What are you muttering there? Come and celebrate! For Huang Baiming and the others, who had been prepared for a long time, Gu was full of red light at this moment. The champagne was prepared early, and everyone was overjoyed.

Unexpectedly, Tsui Hark waved his hand without giving face, and only replied: "You celebrate first, and I'll take a look at Ah Yan's field notes." Post-production is a lot of trouble......"

For Tsui Hark's meticulous style, everyone seems to be accustomed to it and doesn't say much. There are even a few members who have a good relationship with Lu Yan who still feel unfair about Lu Yan in their hearts, after all, today is the big day of the finale.

"What? Isn't it strange why I'm talking to you about this? Looking at Lu Yan, who didn't answer, Tsui Hark suddenly laughed: "Ah Yan, I have seen your recent hard work and talent in my eyes. You've been in Xinyi City for two years, and you still don't understand what I want to fight for for myself is what every director wants to fight for? ”

Oh, yes! What Tsui Hark wants, but what he wants, is not what he wants.

Hearing that Tsui Hark actually said this to himself, Lu Yan nodded without thinking much about it and said, "I'm worried that you won't get a chance after you leave Xinyi City, after all, you don't have the support of the company......"

"I've always wondered how I suddenly got my senses after teaching you a lesson that day. The things to consider are also comprehensive, and they are much more stable. Tsui Hark looked at Lu Yan approvingly, and suddenly said in high spirits: "If I leave Xinyi City, I'm afraid they will all beg Jiahe to invite me to film." However, I hope to create an ideal environment for enthusiastic filmmakers and investors to make high-quality films that can strike both artistic and commercial backgrounds......"

When Tsui Hark's latter words fell into Lu Yan's ears, his eyes lit up and said, "Film studio? ”

Although he doesn't remember when Tsui Hark left New Arts City, he does know that eventually Tsui Hark and his wife Shi Nansheng set up a film studio. Isn't this the original form of the film studio?

"Movie studio?" Hearing this, Tsui Hark's eyes flashed, and he nodded: "This name is good, if I really have this opportunity, I will definitely set up a film studio!" ”

Lu Yan never thought that the famous 'film studio' in Southeast Asia in the future would be called this name because of himself.

"Ah Yan, just a few days ago. I estimated that the play was almost finished, and I hoped to make something of my own, but it was refused. They felt that it was an adventure, different from the style that New Arts City was used to. They insisted on only making comedies, which annoyed me. Tsui Hark did not hide some of his dissatisfaction with the 'Big Three', but it also made Lu Yan understand a major factor why he wanted to withdraw from the New Art City.

In terms of film genres, New Arts City focuses on comedy and has made extensive, in-depth and diversified attempts in this field. Comedy has a long history in Hong Kong. As early as the 50s of the last century, Phoenix Pictures filmed a number of urban comedies. In the 70s, Shaw Brothers' "72 Tenants" and Xu Guanwen's "Ghost Horse Double Star" and "Half a Pound Eight Taels" and other films further set off a boom in "small citizen comedy". As a result, Hong Kong has a mature creative team, rich production experience and a stable audience in the comedy field. Xinyicheng's focus on comedy is a wise strategy to promote strengths and avoid weaknesses.

Another genre of Hong Kong cinema that is most mature is action movies. New Arts City integrates the genre elements of comedy and action films, and produces urban action comedies such as "Ghost Horse Wisdom Multi-Star" and "Best Partner" series, achieving a strong combination in the sense of genre.

Perhaps inspired by the blockbuster hits of Li Hanxiang's Fengyue comedy in the 70s of the last century, Xinyicheng abandoned asceticism in urban action comedies, and added a lot of plots of romance, jealousy, flirting, and provocative surnames. In the fight scenes, New Arts City usually does not imitate Bruce Lee's hard bridges and hard horses, real fights, but uses movie stunts and mechanical props to create big scenes and create visual spectacles; Although the positive characters are agile and can punch and kick, they often do not rely on real kung fu, but rely on high-tech equipment to win, or rely on wisdom or even cleverness to defeat the enemy, or use pranks to trick the opponent, create jokes, and amuse the audience.

Speaking of which, Xinyicheng is indeed very successful in terms of genre strategy, but it imprisons the dreams of many directors. Tsui Hark is such a director who hopes to be innovative. The stubbornness of the 'Big Three' has a bit of a bit of a sticky taste in his eyes.

"Ah Yan, if I really set up a 'film studio', would you like to join?" After Xu Hark finished speaking, his eyes suddenly stared at Lu Yan and asked.

"Me?" Lu Yan was frightened, and his body trembled slightly. The first person invited by Tsui Hark's 'film studio' was actually himself, and he was very incredible.

Regarding Lu Yan's question of confirming his surname, Tsui Hark nodded without the slightest joke: "Yes, it's you." You are young, but you are full of imagination. Do you remember when you told me that the script could still be revised in a few places? In fact, each of us wants to change something that we feel is problematic...... This is the strength that you must have as a director. Moreover, your talent is very high! I can predict that, in time, you'll be able to make your own film. ”

"Make your own film?" Lu Yan muttered to himself.

This is a blueprint, but it is more like Tsui Hark's promise to Lu Yan.

"I can do it!" Lu Yan told himself fiercely in his heart, he suddenly looked directly at Tsui Hark and said, "Director, I still want to learn more from you!" ”

This sentence is already a very clear answer.

In fact, Lu Yan didn't say anything after that, he just said silently in his heart: Director Xu, one of the things you can be proud of in the future is to poach me from Xinyi City.

In fact, if Lu Yan has a few more years of seniority in Xinyi City, he will also have the opportunity to guide the filming. However, there will be very little dominance and discourse in it, and this result is obviously not what he wants.

And choosing to follow Tsui Hark may be the so-called 'venture capital' for others. But to Lu Yan? This is obviously a hitchhiker.

After making a decision, Lu Yan suddenly remembered the classic words in a novel in later generations: I have a tiger in my heart, smell the rose!

[If you don't update it at night, it's not that I'm making an old mistake.] It's that there was an accident in myself, and that's why I'm ...... right now. It's hard for newcomers to mix, and I hope that my friends who like it will support me. 】
