Chapter 347: Double Dragon Society

Wu Siyuan blushed, at the beginning, the funds of the "Hong Kong Screenwriters Guild" were really paid by everyone themselves. After a long time, Wu Siyuan brought in sponsorship to settle this part. I couldn't help but feel ashamed and annoyed: You kid, you say cool things, do you want to take advantage of me? Well, I'm incompetent, I'm ashamed, I'm endured, I want to see what you can do! I don't believe it, you Yang Lin has a big face, how many sponsorships can you get? Besides, even if someone sponsors it, who can last how long this kind of investment has no benefits and no returns? A year? Two years? Could it be that you Yang Lin is rich and rich, and you add money to it yourself?

Yang Lin looked at Wu Siyuan's expression, and was very puzzled: Could it be that these people haven't thought of the method of self-reliance? Can't you, the people here are almost the most elite people in the Hong Kong film industry, and they can't even solve this little problem? Or is there something strange here that he doesn't know?

Wen Jun sighed: "Mr. Yang said it is easy, is it difficult, you add money yourself?" I know that you are a billionaire, don't say that a 'Hong Kong Film Directors' Guild is an orphanage in Hong Kong, and you can afford to sponsor it. However, this is a non-profit organization, and it is not appropriate for you to pay for it yourself. ”

Yang Lin suddenly realized, I see!

The "Hong Kong Film Directors' Guild", like the "Hong Kong Screenwriters Guild", is a public welfare organization and has a social nature. The latter has been invited by the "Hong Kong Film Awards" to serve as a judge of the Academy Awards. If the "Hong Kong Film Directors Guild" wants to expand its influence, it must also strive to be on the jury of the Academy Awards.

But then the problem arises. Non-profit organizations. The nature of society, most importantly, is fairness and justice. If. Which company, or that person, is responsible for the day-to-day operation of the organization, so how can fairness and justice be guaranteed in the selection of the Academy Awards, or even at other times?

Lost a fair and just position. What else is necessary?

No wonder, Wu Siyuan was worried like that!

It turns out that the crux of the matter is here! Whether it's the "Hong Kong Screenwriters Guild". or the "Hong Kong Film Directors Guild", they must be responsible for their own profits and losses, and must not be related to enterprises and individuals!

The first few sessions of the "Hong Kong Film Awards" were so difficult. So shabby. It's understandable. Sponsorship is not impossible, and the company has nothing to do with the film industry at all. If the sponsored company cannot be reassured, then your fairness and justice will not be guaranteed, and the early stage of the Academy Awards will not be recognized. That's it. Just imagine, Hong Kong is a small place. Pulling back and forth, Li Jiacheng and a fish seller may have something to do with each other. This sponsorship is hard to find, which can be seen.

Xu Ke sat next to Yang Lin, and at the beginning, listening to Yang Lin's oath, he looked confident, and he was very happy. But in a blink of an eye, Yang Lin frowned again and thought about it. This is not good, the words are all spoken, can you swallow it back? Wouldn't it be laughed to death! As soon as he wanted to speak, he was blocked by Yang Lin waving his hand.

Yang Lin sat up straight, looked at everyone, and said, "Things are man-made, there is no difficulty, it is a river that cannot be crossed." ”

Wen Jun, that is Wu Siyuan's absolute loyalty, just waiting to see Yang Lin's jokes. Hearing Yang Lin say this, he couldn't help but laugh "sneering", and said in a weird manner: "Mr. Yang, anyone can say something good." But if it sounds good, it is not a good meal. Do you expect to rely on this 'Hong Kong Film Directors Association' to eat, but you can't let everyone take the money, right? Tell me how we got across the river. ”

This guy is Wu Siyuan's gun! Wu Siyuan couldn't say anything, all this guy said, anyway, this guy's reputation has never been good. Broken jars, no scruples, besides, there is Wu Siyuan's support behind him, what else is there to be afraid of?

Yang Lin looked at Wen Jun and then at Wu Siyuan, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, I will tell you my idea." If you join the Hong Kong Film Directors' Guild, the annual membership fee is 5,000 yuan, and you will become a full member of the Hong Kong Film Directors' Guild by paying a one-time membership fee for five years. While undertaking obligations, you also enjoy benefits. ”

The venue was silent. 5,000 yuan in membership fees, to be honest, is a lot. A one-time payment for five years is even more unheard of. But this is not the main thing, although this amount of money is a lot, but the people present, which one can't take it out? It's just a drop in the bucket. The key is the sentence, "While undertaking obligations, you also enjoy benefits", what does it mean? Undertake obligations, this is easy to understand, pay for membership, free office, promote Hong Kong movies, and so on.

Enjoy the benefits? What are the benefits?

In the past, it was just everyone hugging each other, expanding their influence and safeguarding their interests.

However, the "welfare" mentioned by Yang Lin obviously does not stop there.

Wen Jun doesn't care about any "welfare", his "task" is to squeeze Yang Lin into a corner and embarrass him. "Five thousand per person, five years at a time, is twenty-five thousand per person. Even if all the directors in Hong Kong join in, there will only be more than 100 people, 2.5 million, and five years of operation? Hehe, Mr. Yang, are you planning to let everyone eat bran vegetables? ”

He did a really good job of calculating this account. What's more, it is impossible for all Hong Kong directors to join in, there are always some maverick guys.

Yang Lin looked at Wen Jun, pursed his lips, and his expression was full of disdain: "I said that you are counting, is it a kindergarten level?" Or is your IQ just a soy sauce beater? Do you think, who wants to join in, pay the money and come in? As for you, I have to propose that your membership qualifications be strictly reviewed, and your IQ is not good! ”

Everyone burst into laughter, Wen Jun's face suddenly turned the color of pig liver, and he glared at Yang Lin angrily.

Not every director is qualified to join this "Hong Kong Film Directors Association". Without a strict set of criteria for membership, wouldn't it become a rabble? But in this way, it is good to have a membership fee of one or two million, but it is far from enough!

The directors of Yang Lin's family were silent. Since Yang Lin is so confident, it means that he is really confident, and he is by no means a swollen face and a fat man.

But the other people are not as confident as these people, and they are all waiting for Yang Lin, and the explanation is clear.

Wu Siyuan didn't have the optimism just now, frowned, thinking that Yang Lin still had a way to solve the funding problem.

Yang Lin took a sip of water and said quietly: "Recently, I am thinking of a script, but it is just some ideas, and I haven't written it yet. Here, they happen to be all great talents in the Hong Kong screenwriting industry, I'll talk about it casually, and the big guys will give some opinions and improve it. ”

Everyone was stunned, what is the situation? Want to make a movie? Even if you have two million membership fees, what kind of movie can you make? You must know that the current Hong Kong movies are not a few years ago. The actor's salary has risen, the staff's salary has risen, the prop rental has risen, the equipment wear and tear has risen, two million, can you shoot a fart? Zhou Yanfa's salary is more than that.

Yang Lin didn't care about everyone's doubts at all, and continued: "This story is called "Double Dragon Club"

The protagonists of this story are a pair of twins who have been separated since childhood, Gongzi and Fight. Childe followed his parents, immigrated abroad, received higher education, and became an internationally renowned music conductor; Fighting for his life, he was alone, wandering in Hong Kong, wandering the lower classes of society all day long, and offending the people in the community. One day, Childe returned to Hong Kong for a concert and stayed in a hotel where he was working hard. At the concert, the chaotic conductor was a great success, and Childe also rescued his good friend from the gangsters by mistake, and finally the two teamed up to deal with the gangsters.

This film was filmed for the "Hong Kong Film Directors Guild" to raise funds and purchase a venue, and many Hong Kong directors have made cameo appearances in the film.

Jackie Chan, Teddy Robin, Chen You, Tsui Hark, Chen Jiashang, Chen Xinjian, Zhang Aijia, Lin Lingdong, Zeng Zhiwei, Wang Jing, Huang Zhan, Wu Yusen, Zhang Tongzu, Zhang Jianting, Zhang Zhiliang, Cheng Xiaodong, Chu Yuan, Gao Zhisen, Liu Jiarong, Liu Jialiang, Hui Anhua, Jiang Dawei, Liu Weiqiang, Chen Kexin, Luo Wen, Wu Siyuan, Xu Xiaoming

Almost all the most active Hong Kong directors in the 21st century are in this film, making cameo appearances, which has become a grand event for Hong Kong films.

Zeng Zhiwei frowned and said, "What does Mr. Yang mean, do you want to use those membership fees to make this movie?" ”

He didn't say anything, because he could see that Wu Siyuan and Yang Lin were at odds with each other, and Wu Siyuan had obviously dug a pit for Yang Lin. He has a good relationship with Wu Siyuan, and he is not bad with Yang Lin, and more importantly, Yang Lin's current strength and status are too dazzling and too powerful, and neither of them can be offended.

But hearing this, Zeng Zhiwei was a little worried, the scene of this movie is not small, and those membership fees are far from enough. Not to mention anything else, the actor's salary alone is not easy to do. If you are not famous, you can't guarantee the box office, and if you are famous, the budget is not enough.

Zeng Zhiwei thought about it, but it was not a good way, so he spoke out and wanted to remind Yang Lin.

Yang Lin smiled all over his face, nodded to Zeng Zhiwei, expressed his favor, and said: "I know what you mean, so, I don't plan to invite actors for this movie." ”

Everyone was stunned. Not planning to hire actors? Is it possible that you will play it yourself? or

At the moment, those who respond quickly are all understood.

Wu Siyuan was even more stunned. Such a simple solution, I thought of it for so long? These people in front of them are the biggest resources, if they are used well, how much money can't they get? It's hard for me to worry about money before, I really want to eat with a golden rice bowl!

Yang Lin said lightly: "This movie, all the members of the director's club, all cameo performances, who has an opinion?" ”

Who has an opinion?

Wu Siyuan pinched his teeth, this is depressed. (To be continued......)
