The soft light of the morning sun shone through the curtain curtain by the corner of the morning wind, and the slightly dazzling light made Jia Yuyao frown and wake up. Reaching out to her side, she felt an emptiness, and the emptiness and loss in her heart made her sober instantly. She sat up from **, and the thin blanket slid down the white and delicate **, revealing an infinitely beautiful upper body. But this not violent action made her ** a tearing sharp pain, and her delicate eyebrows couldn't help twisting up, looking painful.

Jia Yuyao gritted her teeth and lifted the thin carpet, but the eye-catching scene made her pretty face red and embarrassed. On the white sheets, the red plum color fades, but it still makes people have a shocking beauty. Jia Yuyao bit her lip, staring blankly at the loss of a symbol of an era, recalling the bitter and then sweet pleasure of last night, and shook her head in shame.

She stretched out two fingers like onion pipes, gently lifted the corner of the curtain, and saw Yang Lin boxing in the garden. A delicate face and a faint smile, but she knew what a strong body and what kind of strength she possessed under that seemingly thin appearance.

Jia Yuyao squinted slightly, and gradually became a little stupid.

Because Jia Yuyao had difficulty moving, Yang Lin asked the waiter to bring breakfast to the room. He accompanied Jia Yuyao to wash up well, during which he naturally recklessly wanted to be a brother, but he pity Jia Yuyao was seriously injured last night, so he could only endure it.

The two of them used breakfast tenderly, Yang Lin was diligent, and Jia Yuyao's eyes were as bright as water. The meal was spent in a gentle manner.

In the evening, when Yang Lin and Jia Yuyao walked out of the room to go for a walk on the beach, Ajuan, a girl with always rough lines, seemed to see through something, and her weird smile made Jia Yuyao embarrassed.

One has long been greedy and coveted for a long time, and the other is the first taste, tender like water. Like a fairy couple, the water glides by.

It wasn't until Yang Lin received a call from Wang Jing that he had to end this sweet journey.

After coming to Bali, Yang Lin had already left the phone number at the resort's front desk to Wang Jing. This time, Wang Jing called and told him that Dillon, who originally planned to play "Song Zihao", could not be played for some reason, and the actor had to be selected. It's January 1985 now, and it's about to be the Lunar New Year, if you can't quickly set the actors, I'm afraid it will affect the filming of "The True Color of Heroes", and the release schedule will be a mess at that time.

There was no way, so the group had to go home.

Back in Hong Kong, Jia Yuyao went straight back to The Peninsula, where she lives for most of the year. Yang Lin sent her to the hotel, and before leaving, Jia Yuyao handed Yang Lin the key to her Mercedes-Benz RV, and asked him to drive it first, and then compensate him to buy a car when he had time.

Yang Lin was very unnatural and touched his nose in Jia Yuyao's puzzled eyes: "It feels like eating soft rice, selling yourself to sell a car?" ”

As a result, Jia Yuyao scolded with a red face: "Get out!" "Get rid of him......

**********

The RV thing, comfortable to sit on, there is no sense of superiority when driving, Yang Lin pondered whether to hire a driver, but he has always been low-key and comfortable, and there is a person by his side every day, which is quite uncomfortable. sighed in my heart, I am not the life of a big-money tyrant.

When he returned to the office of "Red Star Pictures", when he saw Wang Jing, he asked, "What's the matter with Dillon?" ”

Wang Jing had a bitter face: "You are ** happy, pity my little body, I have lost several pounds of weight." ”

Yang Lin looked at the double jaw of this thing funny, shook his head and was speechless.

Dillon is now an artist at Shaw Brothers, and the new film "Teaching Hair to Might" is being released. However, the box office was very unsatisfactory, and the painting was only one million a week, so it had to be painted. I contacted him a few days ago, and the Shaw Brothers Company asked him for a role in the Taiwanese movie "Golden Gate Gun Battle", and he would go to Taiwan to shoot immediately, and the schedule could not be staggered at all. Wang Jing said.

Yang Lin couldn't help but scratch his head. The role of Song Zihao is really difficult to play, you have to be stoic and tenacious, you have to be domineering and introverted, you must not be angry and arrogant, and you have the temperament of a boss when you stand there. Several times throughout Hong Kong, how many people can combine these elements into one? There may be another Deng Guangrong, but he is now the boss of the "Shadow Jie" film company, and it is more difficult to invite him to play Song Zihao.

There was no way, Yang Lin said: "I'll go to Mr. Shao to discuss, and give me an appointment with Dillon, and I'll have a good talk with him sometime." ”

Wang Jing frowned and said: "It's useless, Dillon is the most trustworthy, since he promised Mr. Shao, he doesn't have to change it, unless you say that Mr. Shao is moved." "Dillon is a low-key and righteous person, and he will not change his mind easily.

"That's better, as long as Mr. Shao nods, Dillon has nothing to say. I'll go talk to Mr. Shao first, and solve Mei Yanfang's matter by the way. Yang Lin said very stubbornly. After he came back, he learned that Xu Junqin heard that Huaxing Records didn't talk to him about Mei Yanfang at all.

Wang Jing disagreed: "Do you need this?" Dillon is good, but that was just good before, wasn't it? Now that he's out of breath, does he have to do it? "In his mind, who is he looking to play or not? As long as the script is good and the director shoots well, it doesn't matter who the main actor is.

Yang Lin looked at him and said: "No matter what kind of drama, no matter how much money you invest, you must hold the spirit of excellence, strive for perfection, and never get by." Wang Jing is definitely talented, but perhaps because of the "fast gunman" style cultivated in Shaw Brothers, the film blindly seeks to be fast and more, only pays attention to the main line of the script, and is perfunctory about the details, and never wants to work hard. In Yang Lin's view, except for the "God of Gamblers" in Wang Jing's life, which can be regarded as carefully produced, the rest of the films are all shoddy and indiscriminate. The reason for his success is that he can always grasp the commercial elements of the film market, which makes the box office performance very high. Therefore, he is just a commercial film director, at best a successful commercial film director.

Wang Jing was stunned and thoughtful.

Yang Lin went directly to the wireless building to find Shao Yifu. Shao Yifu is now almost not on the side of Shaw Brothers, and all his energy is reserved for TVB.

In Shao Yifu's office, Fang Yihua and Wang Tianlin are there. As soon as Yang Lin entered, Fang Yihua smiled and said, "Boss Yang is here, it's really brilliant." I don't know why, Fang Yihua likes to make jokes about Yang Lin more and more, and it seems that he is very happy to see Yang Lin, who has always been easy-going and calm, showing his embarrassment.

Yang Lin hurriedly smiled bitterly: "Aunt Fang, don't be like this, if you offend you in any way, just say it, and I will change it immediately." ”

Shao Yifu also smiled and said: "If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, you're an 'entertainment genius', and there will be no good thing." Yang Lin bought most of the shares of Shaw Brothers Cinemas, leaving Shao Yifu with time to complete the previous film scheduling contract, but he did not take the opportunity to ask him for a dime in compensation, which Shao Yifu must receive. Because if Yang Lin does not agree to fulfill his previous film scheduling contract, then Shao Yifu will have to pay a lot of money to those producers. Although most of these scheduled films are from Shaw Brothers, Shaw Yifu's losses will also be great.

"Uncle Tim Lin." Yang Lin respectfully greeted Wang Tianlin. The relationship between him and Shao Yifu is mostly a mutual use of people or business, but Wang Tianlin is devoted to him and treats him like a nephew.

Wang Tianlin smiled and nodded, but did not speak, he could see that Yang Lin must have something to do here, but he did not get up and leave. Shao Yifu's affairs were not hidden from him.

Yang Lin sat next to Wang Tianlin, smiled and said to Fang Yihua: "I have a business I want to talk to Aunt Fang." ”

Fang Yihua gently pushed the gold-wire glasses and said with a smile: "I'm up now, you say." ”

Yang Lin touched his nose and cheered up, are we a businessman? "Huaxing Records has a singer named Mei Yanfang, and I want to sign her."

Since it is business, Fang Yihua also put away his playful demeanor, and said: "Mei Yanfang, a newcomer, is very promising, with a changeable style, she will be a newcomer who is highly praised by Huaxing Records, and the sales of the first album are also good, we will not sell it." ”

Huaxing Records is a subsidiary of TVB, but Fang Yihua controls it, and she is in charge of all decisions, and Shao Yifu doesn't ask at all.

Yang Lin smiled: "Since you have said that you are a newcomer, an album can't explain anything." There is a risk in promoting newcomers, so it's better to let me bear this risk, you make a price. ”

Fang Yihua squinted slightly: "I know that you, an 'entertainment genius', have a very powerful vision, a little girl who has never learned to sing, a clerk of an airline, and has become the most dazzling star in the Hong Kong music scene." I heard that in this year's top ten golden songs, several songs of these two people can be selected, can I think that this Mei Yanfang's ability is very strong, so strong that you Yang Lin have to sign it? "I have to say that Fang Yihua, a woman, does have a set of business, fast thinking, and a very good negotiation level.

"You can't say that," Yang Lin smiled faintly, but his tone was a restrained pride: "If it weren't for my songs, they would still be just a little girl who could just sing, a clerk in an airline." You must know that there are many talented and capable newcomers in this world, but there are not many opportunities to make money. ”

Because of me, I can make them stars. In my hands, anyone can become a star, but in your hands, not necessarily. Sell it while you can make money, so that you will never be a new person in the future.

This was said arrogantly, but the few people present did not feel the slightest discomfort, because it was proved to be true.

Fang Yihua groaned, as if he was weighing the gains and losses. It took a long time before he spoke: "One million." ”

Yang Lin didn't blink: "Deal." ”

Everyone was stunned. You must know that Mei Yanfang has only released a record now, although the sales are not bad, but the profit may not even be more than 100,000. Wait until that day to earn back a million? What's more, who knows if the next record will sell more or less. One million, I'm afraid a singer of Rowan's level has also been signed.

Fang Yihua even regretted it a little, if he asked for more, would Yang Lin also agree?

Yang Lin looked at a few people who were a little surprised, and said with a smile: "Actually, this price is very high, far more than Mei Yanfang's current value. I'm willing to spend so much money, just to please Aunt Fang. ”

Shao Yifu smiled: "I have something to ask for, so let's save the country with a curve first, and take the route of a good lady?" ”

"The sixth uncle is wise." Yang Lin gave a thumbs up and slapped a sycophant.

"Tell me what's going on." Shao Yifu said with a smile.

Yang Lin said: "It's a million hits, I want to ask the three generals under the sixth uncle to come out of the mountain and help me make a movie." ”

"Oh, who are they?"

"Zhou Runfa, Dillon, Zhang Guorong."

Zhou Yan found out that Zai was a contracted artist of TVB, Dillon was an artist of Shaw Brothers, and Zhang Guorong was a contracted singer of Huaxing Records. It can be seen from this that the entertainment empire controlled by Shao Yifu is so powerful and how abundant the artist resources are.

Fang Yihua smiled: "Hehe, then do you want to sign Zhang Guorong?" ”

Yang Lin also smiled: "If Aunt Fang is willing to let go, it's still the same sentence, you make an offer." ”

Of course, this is a joke, Cheung Kwok-yung is now in the limelight, and the album "Leslie" is a sensation in Hong Kong, with sales exceeding four platinum. His song "Monica" was sung in Hong Kong to the streets, and this song also established Leslie Cheung's status as a superstar in the music scene. Zhang Guorong is now a visible future superstar, and no amount of Huaxing records will be sold, unless Fang Yihua's brain cramps.

Wang Tianlin frowned and said, "Can these people do it?" It's hard to know that the box office is not guaranteed. ”

This is very reasonable, and it is very considerate of Yang Lin. Zhou Run's redness is very red, but it seems that he is only the star of the TV series, and he is completely insulated from the big screen. "The Story of Hu Yue" and "Waiting for the Dawn" were both well-received, and the box office was dismal, and even the mean media shouted "box office poison" to slander Zhou Yunfa. Dillon is even more glamorous, he no longer has the style he used to have, he has become a second-rate actor, and he has no box office appeal, as evidenced by the just-painted "Teaching Hair Might". As for Zhang Guorong, although he is very famous and has a certain impact on the box office, this person is a singer, although he has acted in several movies, he has no acting skills at all. With these three people starring in a movie, the ending of hitting the street is almost doomed.

Shao Yifu asked, "How much do you plan to invest?" ”

"Fifteen million in the early stage, you can add it at any time." Yang Lin said calmly.

Even the three people present couldn't help but gasp after a long time. The investment of 15 million is astonishing, and it is surprising to dare to use Zhou Yunfa, Dillon, and Zhang Guorong as the leading actors, but when these two surprising reasons are mixed together, it is shocking!

What kind of audacity does this dare to use these three people to make a film that sets a record for Hong Kong film investment?

Fang Yihua exclaimed: "Do you plan to set a record investment in every film, and then break your own record by yourself?" "The budget for "The Assembly" is 10 million, but it is definitely more than 10 million. This drama is fifteen million, and according to Yang Lin's method, it will definitely be added in the end. Even if it is an investment of 15 million, he still has a theater chain, and at least 20 million box office can pay off. This year's box office champion "Best Partner: The Queen's Secret Order" is not yet 30 million, is Yang Lin's confidence so much?

"That's not it," Yang Lin said: "I don't care if the record is broken or not, I just look at how much money this drama needs to be filmed." As for how much to spend, that's not the point. ”

Fang Yihua was speechless, don't you even think about the cost? Don't worry about losing money?

Wang Tianlin looked at Yang Lin's delicate face, sighed and said: "Young people should not be rash, they should be steady, and they should be thoughtful in all aspects. "He really cares about Yang Lin, otherwise he would never say such a thing.

Yang Lin smiled gratefully: "Uncle Tian Lin, don't worry, don't dare to say anything else, you will definitely not lose money." Even if I lose money, I must shoot. ”

Wang Tianlin nodded, he just reminded Yang Lin not to make a wrong decision when his brain was hot. But he also believed in Yang Lin's mind, since he could say so, it meant that Yang Lin had already thought about it. Since you have made up your mind, it is natural to do it, and it is not destined to accompany it or to make money.

Shao Yifu thought for a while and asked Fang Yihua: "I remember that Fa Tsai and Ah Long both have a contract, right?" ”

Fang Yihua thought for a while and said: "Ah Long is going to Taiwan to shoot that "Golden Gate Artillery Battle", Fa Tsai has a "Women's Heart", which is our own play, directed by Guan Jinpeng. ”

Shao Yifu pondered for a while and said: "Call the Taiwan side and ask them to change someone, or choose from the artists of our TVB." Then he sighed and said, "As for that "Women's Heart", let's withdraw it." Such a film has no box office at all, what does it mean to toss? ”

This "Women's Heart" is still in preparation at this time, and it is estimated that it will be the middle of the year when the filming is completed, and Yang Lin will take over the management of the theater chain at that time, and Shao Yifu is going to suspend the filming business of Shaw Brothers.

Yang Lin didn't expect Shao Yifu to be so supportive, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Sixth Uncle." ”

Shao Yifu sighed: "I'm not all helping you, I just want to close the Shaw Brothers Company as soon as possible." Now Shaw Brothers' films are not as good as one, what are you doing? It's better for a strong man to break his wrist and break it early. ”

Yang Lin was silent. The current situation of Shaw Brothers is to shoot one with another, but for the sake of the source of the cinema, it has to rush to shoot non-stop, and the more it loses, the more it shoots, the more it loses, and it falls into a cycle of evil surnames. Now it is just time to transfer the theater to Yang Lin, and he is ruthless and happy.

It is at this time that the spring of Hong Kong films is coming. The soaring speed of rise, the rising box office, and the influence that swept across Asia all show how dazzling and arrogant this glorious moment is!

However, in the past, the absolute representative of Hong Kong movies, the shining "S**" totem that was ridiculed by later generations of boring people, has lost the brilliance of the past.

Now, this once dominating film kingdom has finally come to an end.

Yang Lin was speechless for a long time, and in addition to emotion, there was also a surge of pride in his heart.

There are talents from generation to generation, and a new generation is better than the old.

It's just that when I am replaced, I don't know what kind of mood it will be? (To be continued.) )
