367 invitations from the 46th Oscars

Speaking of this, Run Run Shaw couldn't help sighing, looked at Wang Xiaohu and said thoughtfully: "According to you, our Hong Kong films can only resist the invasion of overseas films if they unite. [No pop-up novel network]"

Wang Xiaohu nodded, "That's right, on the premise of unity, try to explore elements with Chinese characteristics and integrate them into the film, so that overseas audiences can accept our Chinese culture little by little, and they are not afraid of Uncle Liu's jokes, sometimes I feel an inexplicable pressure when I think of this, which makes me breathless, because now Hollywood only appreciates our kung fu movies and action movies, and they don't buy other types of films, just like we don't want to see American films now." ”

"Hey, let's take it one step at a time. Do your best to do your own thing, and Uncle Sixth will fully support you. "Run Run Shaw is old, although he does not accept old age to the outside world, but in front of Wang Xiaohu, a young man, he can clearly feel the powerlessness brought about by the alternation of old and new ideas. After a long time, Run Run Shaw called the human resources department to ask if Michelle's recent schedule was suitable, and Wang Xiaohu was disappointed with the answer. "Ah Xue is rushing for a film, so it's better for you to think about other people. Wang Mingquan can also do it. ”

"Hehe, since Michelle is not free, then I will think of another way." Wang Xiaohu said with a wry smile.

"You really don't think about Wang Mingquan?" Run Run Shaw said: "She is the first sister of TVB. ”

"Her style wasn't what I needed for this film." Wang Xiaohu shrugged helplessly and said, then got up from the sofa and walked out: "Sixth uncle, go back and let Liu Jialiang or Liu Jiahui find me to get the script." Wang Xiaohu's script is, of course, "Lu Acai and Huang Feihong", and it is with this film that Liu Jiahui became popular in my memory, and then there were three Shaolin masterpieces.

After returning home, Zhao Yazhi was reading the script of "A Tiger", and when she saw Wang Xiaohu coming back, she immediately put down the script and put on slippers for him. "How about it, did you borrow Sister Michelle from Uncle Six?"

"No, Michelle's recent schedule is not suitable." Wang Xiaohu gently hugged his wife, and then asked, "Where is Li Guohao?" ”

"He's been messing with Xingzi all day long, and he's kicking sandbags in your practice room right now." Zhao Yazhi said with some concern: "If Mi Xue can't join, are we considering letting Sister Xiu play the role of Pim?" Since signing her, you haven't arranged for her to film, and she has complained several times. ”

"Hehe, she's really not suitable for this play." Wang Xiaohu sat on the sofa, drank the red bean soup boiled by Zhao Yazhi and said: "You have also read the script, the role of PIM is a woman with a very strong reading ability and a full surname, Sister Xiu is now full of pure heart and few desires, I am afraid that she will make a vase in the film." ”

"Hey, you could have promised to prepare a women's play for us!" Zhao Yazhi was not happy at the moment: "Besides, Sister Xiu has nothing to do in the past year, and she is immersed in Brother Xiaolong's grief all day long, I am afraid that something will happen to her if she goes on like this." ”

"Really let her play pim? You must know that in the film, Ah Hu has a relationship with Pim, so you are not jealous at all? Wang Xiaohu joked.

"It's just a show." Zhao Yazhi glanced at him and said angrily: "You can't help but underestimate me too much, am I the kind of narrow-minded woman?" ”

"Well, no, you're not only not narrow-minded, but you're majestic." Wang Xiaohu stared at her plump breasts and said.

"you, people are serious." Zhao Yazhi came up and grabbed his arm and said, "You should sell my personal favor." ”

"Alright! I'm changing the script and trying to get rid of these intimate scenes. Wang Xiaohu sighed, anyway, these are not the selling points of "A Tiger", some stories can be completely deleted, and they can be regarded as radio and television abridgements.

"I remember, the roles of PIM and Ah Hu's daughter Ploy have not been decided, right?" Zhao Yazhi asked enthusiastically again.

"Undecided for now." Wang Xiaohu nodded depressedly and said, "It's too difficult to find a suitable actor these days. ”

Zhao Yazhi looked at Wang Xiaohu, a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes, and she pushed his shoulder and said, "Ah Hu, since you haven't decided, can you consider letting my good sister play the role?" ”

"Your good sister? Who is it? Wang Xiaohu looked at her in surprise and asked.

"Of course it's Aweng." Zhao Yazhi said as a matter of course: "I've read the script, Ah Weng's Xinggen and Ploy are very suitable, and besides, you don't have a suitable candidate"

"Hey!" Hearing this, Wang Xiaohu slapped his thigh vigorously and said, "You said that I have such a brain, why did I forget Ah Weng!" ”

Ah Weng naturally refers to Weng Meiling, since filming the first five episodes of "Jingwumen" last year, Weng Meiling has continued to go to school, and will come to Zhao Yazhi every month to talk to her, and the difference between one big and one small is five years old, but they have become good sisters, which makes Wang Xiaohu feel very interesting.

Under Wang Xiaohu's busy work for three consecutive days, the cast of "Ah Hu" was finally determined, followed by the improvement of the script, the rehearsal of martial arts actions, and participated in the premiere of "Ghost Horse Double Star" during the period. ”

Wang Xiaohu couldn't do anything about it, scratched his head and said, "It's okay, let's extend the screening time." ”

Wu Yusen on the side thought for a while and interjected: "Brother Tiger, why don't we learn from your method in "Raptors Across the River" and perform a music video at the same scene." ”

"You mean MTV, right?" Wang Xiaohu smiled and said, "No problem, there should be unexpected effects." Let's go to Xu Guan's outstanding horse. ”

"If it weren't for Brother Tiger's MV that filmed "I Am Bruce Lee", I wouldn't have thought of this method, I created a few musical skits with Sam, and filmed, edited, printed, and mixed all of them were completed in three days, and on the fourth day, it was screened in the theater with "Ghost Horse Twin Stars". Unexpectedly, movies and short films were very popular, and when the painting was completed, "Ghost Horse Double Star" received 6.2 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office. All three of us were very happy, and it was like a family, and everyone was fully engaged in the movie. Many years later, John Woo is still very excited when others mention this past.

At the same time as the release of "Ghost Horse Double Star", "Shaolin Woodman Alley" directed by Luo Wei and starring Wang Yu also began to enter the release period, Wang Xiaohu directly adjusted the theater schedule and let the two films be played at the same time, Luo Wei was very grateful to Wang Xiaohu for this, because he knew how much the script of "Shaolin Woodman Alley" was "sent" to him by Wang Xiaohu.

Not only that, several martial arts instructors of Luo Wei's company are also graduates of the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Union, and the filming of this "Shaolin Woodman Alley" is also clear-eyed, and the fighting methods are in line with the popular kung fu comedy style, but also earned Luo Wei 2.5 million Hong Kong dollars, which can make Luo Wei unhappy, and took Wang Xiaohu's hand and said: "Ah Hu, thanks to your help this time." ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. Jointly prosper the Hong Kong film industry. Wang Xiaohu smiled, but said in his heart that this was just to achieve the purpose of restraining Jiahe Company, not to mention that Luo Wei's 2.5 million miles away, he could also draw a part of the box office dividends, everyone has money to make, and he naturally will not refuse.

"I'm going to have a celebration in a few days, so don't forget to come and attend when the time comes." Luo Wei's face was full of smug smiles, since he has been a director for more than ten years, he has never been so proud today.

"I may have a new film started in a few days, and I'm going to go to Thailand to shoot, I'm afraid," Wang Xiaohu said apologetically.

Luo Wei was a little disappointed, and said whimfully: "Okay, I know that you are very busy, and Wang Yu and I will look for you for tea when I go back." ”

β€œok!” Wang Xiaohu sent away the enthusiastic Luo Wei, pouted and shrugged helplessly, if it was okay to drink tea with Luo Wei, but Wang Yu, forget it, everyone knows that he is a core member of the Bamboo Union Gang, he was a little entangled with the Bamboo Union Gang a while ago, it is estimated that the fat man Tian should have said bad things about himself, it is better to keep a little distance first.

The crew of "Ah Hu" prepared for more than a week, and during this week, Wang Xiaohu communicated in detail with several main actors, especially with Miao Kexiu, because Miao Kexiu has not filmed for a long time, he is a little rusty with his acting skills, and he can't find Pim's surname for a while, in fact, it is not to blame Miao Kexiu's unfamiliar acting skills, but Wang Xiaohu's requirements are particularly strict, which is a little miserable for Miao Kexiu, who has been making vases.

Zhao Yazhi's nun, Weng Meiling's ploy is mostly performed in her true colors, so she didn't bother Wang Xiaohu in this regard, so in her spare time, Zhao Yazhi will take the initiative to take on Wang Xiaohu's work and tell Miao Kexiu about the positioning of the actress of the woman.

Everything is well prepared, and after a few days, Wang Xiaohu decided to rush to Thailand for filming, and at this time, the "DV camera" model he booked with Lucas was also delivered to his hand through the airpiece, and there was a document at the same time as the DV model.

"Boss, did you receive the letter?" WinterdΓΌrth even made a transatlantic call.

"Yes, I just received it." Wang Xiaohu said: "Lao Wen, are you sure this is not a joke? ”

"Of course, boss, your four films last year firmly dominated the top four at the North American box office, and it is a well-deserved thing to invite you to the 46th Oscars, if you can't get the invitation, hell!" Winterdur shouted excitedly on the phone: "Boss, you still have a week, come over as soon as possible to familiarize yourself with the environment, because everyone is very interested in your dark horses now." ”
