414 An opportunity, a commitment, a person

Before the creation of "Earth-shattering" last year, Wang Xiaohu racked his brains to get involved with the mainland, or find a way to go to the mainland to find out the rumors, after all, the obstacles that made him worry about were analyzed out of thin air in combination with the history of his previous life, and an introduction is needed to see if it works. 【Reading.com】

Wang Xiaohu originally planned to talk to President Liang through Run Run Shaw in the first half of this year, but he didn't know that the year was not over yet, and President Liang took the initiative to come to the door, and he also brought the key figure who promoted the development of Chinese martial arts kung fu films - Zhang Xinyan.

From what the other party just said, Wang Xiaohu was very sensitive to capture some clues, and combined these clues with the memories of his previous life, he sorted out a bunch of useful information for himself.

Today, President Liang and Zhang Xinyan came to visit because of a political task, or simply the leaders of the mainland came to explore their own style, after all, they have been reborn and have filmed many kung fu films over the years, among which the strong patriotism in the two films "Jingwumen" and "Ip Man" has made the bigwigs in Zhongnanhai interested.

Wang Xiaohu can completely conclude that his every move in Hong Kong, Southeast Asia or even Hollywood will be fed back to the mainland through various channels, and what he has done in recent years is quite decent, and every word and deed is secretly flaunting his identity as a Chinese surname, especially in the interview before attending the 46th Academy Awards, I believe that the words he said will appear on the table of some relevant people in China.

It can be said that it is these small details that Wang Xiaohu has done before and after that make the mainland more or less aware of his thoughts, and they will definitely conduct a comprehensive investigation of themselves, if they do not meet the standards of the mainland leadership, I believe that President Liang and Zhang Xinyan will not appear in front of them, and talk to themselves about cooperation in a tone that seems to be asking but is actually tentative.

Wang Xiaohu is not a fool, although he is very similar to entering the mainland market, but it does not mean that he will become a chess piece planted by the mainland in Hong Kong, he has not joined the consciousness of joining the party, he is just like taking advantage of this east wind, first enter the mainland to inspect and inspect the environment, form an intuitive understanding of the current situation on the mainland, and prepare for the next step of work development.

"I won't do anything good if it's not good!" This meaning is clearly expressed in and out of the words, and President Liang, who has been engaged in political work for a long time, does not understand the meaning.

"Comrade Xiao Wang, I don't know what you mean by commercial value?" President Liang pushed the eyes on the bridge of his nose, leaned forward, and tried to speak softly, so as not to cause Wang Xiaohu's unhappiness because of the political tone he was accustomed to.

Wang Xiaohu saw it in his eyes and smiled in his heart, negotiation is mainly about timing, no matter how willing you are in your heart, you have to hold it on your face, so he behaved so coldly, which made President Liang feel a headache.

Seeing that the other party lowered his posture, Wang Xiaohu said: "Actually, it's very simple, the script I wrote may be very different from the ideas over there, you see this is a book I wrote recently, some things are just afraid that they will be completely denied by that side!" In fact, this thing is saying the opposite, the script he is showing to President Liang now is the main theme version of "Shocking", and every word in it has been processed and improved by Wang Xiaohu, all of which are expounding a series of positive and effective measures made by our party and our army after the earthquake.

And Wang Xiaohu also took this opportunity to deliberately let President Liang see the script, I believe that Comrade Liang will definitely remember the script deeply, after all, the script in Wang Xiaohu's creation is not something that anyone can see if they want to see it, it is all real money, and President Liang does read it very carefully.

The script is not very long, only a few pages, and the script is more direct than the report literature and novels, President Liang did not take long to read the script, after that, he frowned and fell into contemplation, and after a long time, he raised his head and said hesitantly: "Comrade Xiao Wang, the script doesn't seem to be very perfect, right?" ”

Isn't it perfect? Hehe, that's because I only gave a beginning and an end, and the most crucial thing in the middle can not be seen by you. Wang Xiaohu smiled in his heart, anyway, now that I have aroused your interest, I can now calm down and ask you for a price.

"I wrote this script after I came back from the Oscars last year, and I originally wanted to make a film that reflected the theme of the mainland, but after thinking about it, I found that it had no commercial value, so I remained here for more than half a year and never wrote it again. Another reason why I stopped writing is that I don't have a good understanding of the mainland now, and I'm afraid that what I shoot will be out of touch with reality. Now take out the semi-finished product and show it to President Liang, I'm really afraid of your jokes. ”

"Comrade Xiao Wang is really good at joking." President Liang said embarrassedly: "I feel that the idea of this script creation is very correct, it is very in line with the special surname of the times, and the description of the mainland is also very real, why don't you continue to write?" ”

"Don't write it, don't write it!" Wang Xiaohu shook his head and said: "If this kind of thing is going to be filmed, it is very frustrating, it is necessary to shoot the atmosphere of the times, and it is necessary to take into account the appreciation level of Hong Kong citizens, and to take care of the picky judges in Hollywood, there are too many things to worry about, so I only wrote the beginning and the end, and the middle is empty first, and I will write a few strokes when I am in the mood one day." ”

Wang Xiaohu said while putting a trap on President Liang, at this time Zhang Xinyan also began to watch this script very seriously, as an insider, the more Zhang Xinyan looked at it, the more he admired, and in a few words, the surname of the characters in the story was expressed so well, and the requirements for the scene were also written in detail, but the middle was gone when I was enjoying it! It is already the end when I look at it.

A beginning, an end, the main theme is vividly and vividly, not only President Liang, but even Zhang Xinyan feels the values of Wang Xiaohu's script at this time, if the main theme film is also filmed, Zhang Xinyan dares to make a decision, even those domestic "red" directors may not have Wang Xiaohu's skills.

At that moment, Zhang Xinyan gave President Liang a look, which means: I want this script!

President Liang frowned slightly and responded to Zhang Xinyan: Wanted?

Zhang Xinyan nodded: Well, I want it.

The two had a silent exchange here, Wang Xiaohu and Run Run Shaw saw it, looked at each other and smiled, and then Wang Xiaohu stood up and stretched his waist and said: "Hey, I've been busy with work for the New Year recently, and I'm almost going to waste my kung fu, isn't Uncle Sixth going to learn to play Tai Chi with me, why don't you go to practice together?" ”

As soon as these words came out, President Liang and Zhang Xinyan suddenly became anxious, and Wang Xiaohu indirectly conveyed the "eviction order", and his task has not yet been completed.

Run Run Shaw stood up very cooperatively, but quickly shook his head and said, "Boy, you have guests at home, you should serve the guests first, Tai Chi is not in a hurry to learn for a while." ”

"Yes, yes, Comrade Xiao Wang, it's better for us to discuss the issue of the script first, it's not harmonious after all." President Liang said busily, he was grateful to Run Run Shaw in his heart, but he was still an elderly person who did things reliably.

"Hiss~~" Wang Xiaohu touched his chin and said with some embarrassment: "Otherwise, if you are really interested in this script, you can take it back and discuss it together, after all, cooperation is not a trivial matter." ”

"What's so embarrassing about that." President Liang couldn't wait to take the script back to discuss it, but when he heard it, he hurriedly stood up and said to Wang Xiaohu: "Then, Xiao Zhang and I won't bother you to learn kung fu, and we will finish the discussion as soon as possible when we go back." ”

"Don't send it!" Wang Xiaohu watched the two leave with a smile, turned back to Run Run Shaw and said, "Sixth uncle, what do you think?" ”

"What do you think about?" Run Run Shaw asked.

"Hey, Uncle Six, you sometimes pretend to be garlic too fake!" Wang Xiaohu rolled his eyes and said: "If you want to cooperate with the leftists, will it cause some dissatisfaction with the British political axe in Hong Kong?" ”

"It's up to you to cooperate!" Run Run Shaw said very cautiously: "If it is just a cooperation, if the film produced is decent, there should not be much of a problem, not to mention that last year the British political axe has expressed to the mainland the sincerity of unconditional return of Hong Kong, as long as it is not a sensitive political topic, Hong Kong and British political axe will turn a blind eye." ”

Wang Xiaohu nodded, "Sixth uncle, I want to cooperate with them." ”

"Haha, I have already seen it, otherwise I wouldn't have agreed to come here this time." Run Run Shaw laughed and said, "But you kid is good enough, you can play two mainland representatives, I believe that the script was prepared by you a long time ago, right?" ”

"Of course it was prepared a long time ago." Wang Xiaohu smiled and took out the remaining script from the drawer, handed it to Run Run Shaw and said: "It's just that there are a lot of complicated procedures to do things in the mainland, and sometimes people are very unfree, I am taking this opportunity to convey my cooperation sincerity and requirements over there, if you want to shoot "Earthbreaking", I don't like others to point fingers, and I don't want the filming process to be affected by the slightest outside world." ”

"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult." After reading the script, Run Run Shaw shook his head and said, "If you really want to do this, your film will lose the opportunity to be released in Hong Kong, Southeast Asia and Hollywood. ”

"Figure what?" Wang Xiaohu sighed, looked at Run Run Shaw and said with a smile: "I only want a chance, a promise, and a person!" ”

"A chance? A promise? Alone? Run Run Shaw didn't understand at all at this moment, he frowned and said, "Don't you feel that you have sacrificed too much for the sake of these three ones?" ”

The corners of Wang Xiaohu's mouth curled, revealing a mysterious smile: "Sixth uncle, people's eyes should be long-term, so that they will not stick to the surface." ”
