483 Action Director
In the face of these so-called scandals, Wang Xiaohu did not let it go, but took immediate action, he immediately called Deng Sheng and asked Deng Shibo to assist in investigating the mastermind behind the scenes. [Full text reading]
Deng Sheng's first reaction after receiving the call was to laugh and scold: "Xiaohu, let our police help you do this kind of thing, it's too trivial, right?" ”
"How do you make a big fuss? Your nephew and I have been framed, and you, the uncle, have the obligation to help me find the person behind the scenes, and return my innocence! Wang Xiaohu said aggrievedly: "If you don't act again, Ming'er and these people will write me as a scumbag of Chengren and Chen Shimei or something, this is a personal attack!" ”
"Okay, who let you help me back then, I'll arrange this immediately!" Deng Sheng said with a smile: "Next time, you have to pay attention, at least you have to pay attention to safety when you are merry outside, you see how embarrassing it is to be caught now." ”
"Damn, uncle, you also treat me as that kind of person?" Wang Xiaohu was speechless.
"Tsk, Deborah, Xiaohu, you have a bad taste, that's Miss Asia!" Deng Sheng began to talk nonsense on the phone, and the depressed Wang Xiaohu couldn't, "I'm too lazy to say it!" Tell your people not to move their hands and feet, lest it be spread out and say what happened to me Wang Xiaohu. ”
"Just rest assured! If you go outside, you must first settle inside, you better hurry up and do the work of Azhi! ”
Wang Xiaohu smiled bitterly and hung up the phone, how can there be a little bit of a master's shelf.
When Run Run Shaw learned that the former Governor of Hong Kong was removed due to corruption, and the new Governor MacLehose would set off a comprehensive investigation by the Independent Commission Against Corruption to thoroughly investigate the corrupt officers, he immediately notified Wang Xiaohu, and then Wang Xiaohu immediately notified Deng Sheng, so that Deng Sir, who was a big corrupt man on the surface, saved himself from a tragic end (In history, Deng Sheng was dismissed and investigated for corruption, and he died after learning the news. He immediately took the initiative to admit that he mistakenly handed over the embezzled funds, and Run Run Shaw was maneuvered in the middle, so he was dealt with lightly, and now Deng Sheng is a policeman in an ordinary neighborhood in Kowloon, and he is just in charge of Wang Xiaohu.
And the means used by Wang Xiaohu don't look very glorious this time, but in the face of disgraceful smears, he prefers to use more direct means, anyway, his current status will not be like other artists to hold a so-called news reporter meeting to clarify, at this time, there is a more direct way to solve the problem, who will waste time and how to dig out the mind to explain?
Unless he wants to use the scandal to improve his exposure in front of the media, it is obvious that his identity and status do not use this inferior hype. I can't use it, someone must want to use it, so follow this clue to find the mastermind behind the scenes, in fact, look at the second- and third-tier stars who have "had a relationship" with Wang Xiaohu on the news, the answer is not far from ten, asking the police to help just go through the superficial procedures.
Of course, Wang Xiaohu is also a tycoon in the entertainment industry now, and he can also use his relationship with 14K to let the people in the club directly arrest and intimidate those third-rate female stars who spread rumors behind their backs, but this is a bit too domineering and exposed, not because of Wang Xiaohu's surname.
The reporters were blocked in front of Wang Xiaohu's house, and the dozen or so big wolf dogs looked at them with fierce eyes, which discouraged the reporters.
When several gossip tabloid reporters were discussing how to fabricate "Wang Xiaohu's backyard caught fire, and the husband and wife fought", several police cars suddenly stopped behind them, and they saw more than a dozen policemen rushing out of the cars, and the leader shouted: "We have been notified that there are people here who gather to make trouble, spread rumors and affect the normal life of others, and all of them are arrested!" ”
"Sir, we don't have it!" When the reporters heard this, they immediately panicked, and began to cry out one by one, but the police didn't care about that, and dragged the police car straight in.
In the blink of an eye, the chirping flies in front of Wang Xiaohu's door disappeared completely.
"It seems that I have been too benevolent to the outside world over the years, and others have treated me as a soft persimmon." Wang Xiaohu muttered, turned around and went back to the study to write the script.
The reporters who were invited to the police station for tea were frightened one by one, but they knew that none of the Hong Kong police were good birds, and they had a blue nose and swollen face when they came in today!
A few small leaders secretly said in their hearts that if they were beaten by the police, they would definitely denounce it in the newspaper tomorrow, and then expose to the whole Hong Kong people that Wang Xiaohu and the police were in a mess, and it was best to attract the attention of the Hong Kong governor, and the bigger the trouble, the better.
How do you know that after entering the police station, the police did not "violence" against them, but politely chatted with them, the atmosphere could not be better, so that these indignant reporters were suddenly shocked, and more interesting is still to come, an older policeman came in with a stack of newspapers and told them that as long as they said who provided the source of information to the newspaper, they could leave.
That's too easy, right? When the reporters heard that it was okay, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief
The scandal came and went quickly, but the next day, the newspapers that spread rumors immediately apologized publicly to Wang Xiaohu, along with more than a dozen third-rate actresses' sincere apologies.
Shaw Brothers immediately made a decision to terminate the contracts of these dozen third-rate actresses, and warned all artists with this matter that anyone who did the same thing would be dealt with seriously.
Wang Xiaohu didn't make any further moves, apologize if he apologizes, just eliminate the negative impact, he just needs to keep his ears clean, no one makes fun of him, after all, the Hong Kong entertainment industry in the 70s is still relatively pure, and the phenomenon of unspoken rules is not very popular.
Of course, even so, the citizens still remembered this matter, and discussed in private, discussing the truth of the scandal, and at the same time wondering what Wang Xiaohu's new film would be filmed.
It is worth mentioning that after the dozen or so third-rate actresses were fired by Shaw Brothers, they were immediately recruited by some small companies, and their prices soared, and several of them were signed by Wu Siyuan's film company.
Using scandals with celebrities to hype themselves and increase their worth, this incident fully reminded many people in the entertainment industry, and those third-rate actresses did not expect that their unintentional actions would cause all kinds of hype in the future, of course, these are all later stories
After determining Pan Yingzi as the best candidate for red beans, Wang Xiaohu had more things to do, first holding an internal meeting of the company to arrange for someone to submit the budget cost of the new film.
At the same time, nearly 50 students from the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Training Base were used for centralized training to prepare for the early stage of "Hong Xiguan".
Let's take a look at the cast of "Hong Hee Guan".
Hong Xiguan is naturally played by Wang Xiaohu, Pan Yingzi challenges the role of red beans, Jet Li plays Hong Wending, the son of Hong Xiguan in the film, Yu Suqiu plays the mother of red beans - Thousand-armed Guanyin Zhu Xiaoqian, the old enemy eight-armed Arhat is Wang Longwei, Liu Songren, the chief helmsman of the Red Flower Society, Wu Mengda is a good man, Stephen Chow is his son Ma Chaoxing, Andy Lau plays the role of Emperor Hu Dedi in the Five Ancestors of Shaolin, and Huang Yuehua is Fang Dahong (that is, the one who eats chicken butts and drags the Oriental dialect of Shandong. The villain Ma Ninger is played by Billy Zhou.
From the perspective of actors, it is basically supplied by the Concord Company itself, and the role of the demon monk Keba in the Western Regions is arranged for the old drama bone Qin Pei to play, originally Wang Xiaohu's scheduled candidate was Shi Jian, but Uncle Jian has been in poor health recently, so he recommended Qin Pei to Wang Xiaohu.
Seeing Qin Pei, Wang Xiaohu's eyes suddenly lit up, this old actor is definitely a familiar face, not who is the actor of Temujin in the 83 version of "Shooting the Condor", and he is Jiang David's eldest brother, and there is a half-brother Er Dongsheng, these are all bull fork characters in Hong Kong movies, Qin Pei himself is a powerful actor who is good at loyal roles, and often plays roles such as his father or the chairman of the company.
"Uncle Pei has been wronged to make a negative teaching material." Wang Xiaohu said to Qin Pei.
Qin Pei said with a smile: "Director Wang can appreciate his face and give him food, it is already a blessing for me to be an old bone, everyone knows that after participating in your movie, my worth will increase immediately, I am too late to be happy, how can I be wronged." ”
"Well, there will be more opportunities for us to cooperate in the future." Wang Xiaohu was referring to the 83 version of "Shooting the Condor", Qin Pei naturally didn't know that he had been booked in advance at this time, and it was several years since he was booked.
After all the preparations were ready, Wang Xiaohu began to distribute the script, and asked all the participants to go home to familiarize themselves with the script and figure out the characters, and he rushed to the base with Yuan De and Yuan Kui.
On the way there, Wang Xiaohu said to the two senior brothers: "Ade and Akui, you have been working together as a martial arts instructor for the Shaw Brothers for the past two years, and you have accumulated a lot of experience, so let's do martial arts guidance for the new film this time." ”
Yuan De and Yuan Kui were stunned, it was obvious that this was too unexpected for them, everyone knew that in Ah Hu's movie, in addition to being a director, he also had to be a part-time martial arts instructor, looking at the entire Asian film circle, he was definitely the No1 martial arts finger, why did he suddenly give himself power?
"Ah Hu, I'm afraid we'll be martial arts instructors"
Yuan Kui's words were interrupted by Wang Xiaohu before he finished speaking, "Sanmao, Ah Long, Ah Biao, they have been used to being in front of the stage in recent years, but a few of you are always unwilling to show your face, and it is not a way to go on like this, men always have to find some goals for themselves to strive for, this time I will definitely give you power, give full play to your strengths in this movie!" ”
"What if I mess up?" Yuan De asked uneasily.
"Haha, isn't there an action director if the martial arts instructor messes up? Rest assured! ”
"Action director?" Yuan De and Yuan Kui glanced at each other, action director is really a new term for them!
