Under the persuasion of Shi Yanhe, the old abbot finally agreed to Wang Xiaohu's request. 【Reading.com】

At present, there are only more than a dozen warrior monks in Shaolin Temple, although the personnel are small, but they have really obtained the authentic true tradition, especially the great monk who practiced the golden bell jar, even when it was a catastrophe, he did not forget the habit of practicing every day.

The old abbot was old, and he had experienced a battle between heaven and man just now, so he naturally went back to the room early to rest.

When there were only three people left in the room, including Wang Xiaohu and Shi Yanhe, Wang Xiaohu looked at the two young monks in front of him, and said after a little contemplation: "I believe that soon after the broadcast of "Shaolin Temple", there will be a large number of children who come to learn martial arts in front of the mountain gate, and the two of you must take corresponding protective measures to avoid other accidents that damage the reputation of Shaolin." ”

"What the donor said is very true!" Shi Yanhe pronounced a syntax and said: "Thanks to the sesame oil money contributed by the donor, the life in the temple has been greatly improved recently." ”

Wang Xiaohu smiled and said: "Shaolin's status will soon rise, I don't care how you promote Buddhism, or that sentence, I only pay attention to Shaolin's kung fu, if I guess correctly, there will be a large number of martial arts schools under the banner of Shaolin near Shaolin Mountain, as Shaolin's foreign cultural disseminators, you have to communicate with Dengfeng in advance, and try to avoid the phenomenon of impersonation." ”

"Amitabha, the donor's reminder is too timely, so it seems that if Shaolin does not find the lost warrior monks back to Shaolin as soon as possible, and does not complete the repair of the books in the scripture pavilion, the reputation of Shaolin is in jeopardy."

Wang Xiaohu also nodded, it seemed that the young monk could see it clearly, and after a few more instructions, he asked them to go back to rest.

At the end of May, Wang Xiaohu returned to Hong Kong with three approved scripts, and as soon as he arrived at home, he put the souvenirs he brought from his hometown into the kitchen.

These local specialties were sent by Wang Zhenrong, including millet from Longshan, water tofu, etc., which are all specialties that Wang Xiaohu has not tasted for many years, so they are particularly cherished.

Early the next morning, Wang Xiaohu arrived at Xiehe Company, and before he could sit on the boss's chair, he received a call from Liu Jialiang.

"Ah Hu, do you have time to come out for tea?" Liu Jialiang said with a smile on the phone.

For Liu Jialiang, Wang Xiaohu has a feeling that it is unclear, if it is according to the generation, Liu Jialiang is at the same level as his master Yu Zhanyuan, and he is also the only director who adheres to the real kung fu style of Hong Kong films in the future.

"Of course it's time, why is Uncle Liang in the mood to drink tea with me."

"It's better to meet and talk."

Liu Jialiang said the location of a tea house, and half an hour later, Wang Xiaohu drove to the agreed place, and after pushing open the door of the room and entering, he found that it was not only Liu Jialiang alone, but Run Run Shaw was also sitting there drinking tea.

"Hey, you're all very idle."

Wang Xiaohu sat down with a smile, and Run Run Shaw on the other side sighed and said, "It's not that I'm idle, but I'm being pulled over by Jialiang as a lobbyist." ”

"Lobbyist?" Wang Xiaohu poured himself tea and took a sip: "What kind of thing, I still have to let you come forward." ”

"Let him say it himself." Run Run Shaw looked at Liu Jialiang: "Oh, Xiaohu is here, hurry up and tell me what you think." ”

Liu Jialiang nodded, poured tea for Wang Xiaohu and said, "Ah Hu, I have a lot of thoughts after watching "Shaolin Temple", I think"

Without waiting for Liu Jialiang to continue, Wang Xiaohu immediately understood Liu Jialiang's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Oh, I can probably guess a little." ”

"You guessed it?" Liu Jialiang was surprised, and looked at Run Run Shaw, does that mean that Uncle Six, you notified you in advance? Run Run Shaw shook his head and said, "Jialiang, I have long said that Xiaohu knows some feng shui divination, you let him tell me if he guesses your heart." ”

"Actually, it's very simple, Uncle Liang, you have already shot two Shaolin-themed movies, both of which revolve around the Sande Monk and Southern Shaolin."

Wang Xiaohu deliberately paused when he said this, and when he saw Liu Jialiang with his mouth open with an expression of disbelief, he continued with a smile at the moment: "So I guess Uncle Liang wants to come to a synthesis of North and South Shaolin this time, combining the hard bridge and hard horse of South Shaolin and the chic elegance of North Shaolin to create a classic Shaolin movie, right?" ”

Bang Bang Bang!

After Wang Xiaohu finished speaking, Run Run Shaw had already applauded, Liu Jialiang was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, smiled bitterly and applauded with Run Run Shaw, and at the end he stretched out his thumb to Wang Xiaohu and said: "I can't imagine that Ah Hu guessed all right!" ”

Run Run Shaw smiled and said, "I said a long time ago, Xiaohu can pinch it, now I have seen it, right?" ”

Liu Jialiang really believed it this time, he nodded and said: "I have seen it, today is a real eye-opener, what Ah Hu just said is not only very correct, but also made me suddenly, in fact, after seeing Shaolin Temple, I had these thoughts, but I didn't think about it in the long term." ”

Wang Xiaohu put down the teacup, and Liu Jialiang hurriedly poured it full.

"It's not that I'm thinking about it in the long term, who in Hong Kong doesn't know that Uncle Liang is the descendant of Wong Fei Hung, and Uncle Liang is the best director of Shaolin-themed movies."

Liu Jialiang shook his head and said, "That's all the credit of your script." After drinking a cup of tea, Liu Jialiang said: "I have already found someone to write the script, and this time I am looking for you mainly to borrow actors, I don't know if Jet Li's recent schedule is available." ”

"There is definitely a schedule." Wang Xiaohu said: "I can also lend you people, but there must be one condition." ”

"Just say it." Liu Jialiang asked hurriedly when he heard this.

"The salary has to be the same as Concord." Wang Xiaohu picked up a piece of dim sum and stuffed it into his mouth.

Liu Jialiang and Run Run Shaw glanced at each other, and after getting the latter's approval, he said: "This shouldn't be a problem, we still want to enter the mainland to shoot, and in terms of actors, we plan to use the original cast." So in terms of public relations, you still have to be a tiger, you have to worry a lot. ”

"As long as you can strictly follow Concord's standards, none of this is a problem!" Wang Xiaohu said happily.

After talking about this matter, Liu Jialiang is in a good mood, he has always tried movies with various themes, but there has never been a good effect on the theme of Shaolin, and he is also handy in the martial arts design of Shaolin monk practice, after watching "Shaolin Temple" this time, he was shocked by the wonderful performance of mainland martial arts athletes in the film, he didn't expect that mainland athletes have such good skills, and they are far better than Hong Kong's dragon and tiger martial artists in terms of martial arts foundation. and became intrigued by Wang Xiaohu's idea of hiring martial arts athletes to make a movie.

For this reason, he came up with the idea of filming a movie combining Southern Shaolin and Northern Shaolin, but he was afraid that Wang Xiaohu would not agree, so he dragged Run Run Shaw to be a lobbyist, after all, he was the last pillar of the Shaw Brothers movie, and Run Run Shaw couldn't help him.

After talking about cooperation, Wang Xiaohu asked Run Run Shaw to prepare for entering the mainland to promote Hong Kong films, in addition to participating in the premiere of "Shaolin Temple" and reviewing three scripts, this matter made him worried.

On the contrary, the Ministry of Culture hopes to enhance the exchange of film culture between the two places through such a method, and Wang Xiaohu is a key hub.

"During this period, arrange a group of people who speak Chinese well to concentrate on training, so that they can tell the glorious history of Shaw Brothers to the mainland audience during the publicity period, and explain the relationship between themselves and the mainland as much as possible, after all, Lao Dou you also came from the mainland."

Run Run Shaw listened and nodded again and again, he could understand Wang Xiaohu's good intentions, so he listened very carefully to Wang Xiaohu's suggestions.

When Liu Jialiang went out to find a waiter to exchange tea and snacks, Wang Xiaohu suddenly said: "By the way, did you tell Liu Jialiang that if he enters the mainland to shoot movies, Taiwan will ban him." ”

Shaw shook his head and said, "This has not been explained yet. ”

"Then it's better to inform him, lest everyone end up looking bad." Wang Xiaohu said: "You have to tell the powerful relationship between the two aspects, it is good to enter the mainland, but the Taiwan market will face embarrassment, if the box office of the co-production is very dismal, his directorial career will plummet, and no one dares to ask him to invest in filmmaking." ”

"Hey! You may not know that Jia Liang may not always listen to persuasion, he has his own ideas. Run Run Shaw sighed and said, "Besides, I've diluted the idea of making a movie, so let him do it." ”

"Make it clear and let him weigh it himself." Wang Xiaohu still adheres to this view.

"Well, I'll tell him later." Run Run Shaw drank all the tea in the cup: "When will "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" start? ”

"The scenes in Hong Kong will be around the end of the year, and now the actors are familiar with the script."

"Remember to give me the premiere rights first!" Run Run Shaw said very seriously.

Wang Xiaohu smiled bitterly, his current relationship is very delicate, first of all, he doesn't have a special TV station to broadcast TV, it is completely an institution other than TVB and Li, and both TV series can buy copyrights, and the reason why Li's side is involved is entirely because "Shanghai Tang" made them defeated, and Xu Xiaoming was poached by Wang Xiaohu at a critical moment.

So at first, Li's top and bottom hated Wang Xiaohu, but in a blink of an eye, they felt that they should win over Wang Xiaohu and propose to acquire the copyright of the second round of broadcast of "Shanghai Tang" in order to save face.

Wang Xiaohu's approach is more similar to the practice of TV dramas in later generations, after a TV series is filmed, it is sold to each David TV for sale, and whoever gives a high price will sell it to whoever premieres, the difference is that there are currently only two large TV stations in Hong Kong, and the two sides regard them as mortal enemies, and the struggle during the period can be imagined.
