Chapter 14 Sanmao's Invitation

The late autumn of 1983 was particularly cold, and the silver frost spread all over the grass on both sides, and the rows of lush trees on the roadside were white, and within a few days the leaves were knocked off by the cold frost.

Sammo Hung, who was tired all day, picked up the "super thick" script handed by his agent during the day, and for Hung Jinbao, who is now in status, he no longer needs to review it himself, but the agent said: This script is very special and needs to be reviewed by him personally.

Hong Jinbao opened the storyboard script written by Li Yihua, and couldn't help but deposit his mind in it, the storyboard script can just become an important tool to help the director complete his work. It can simply present an animated film, which provides an important reference for future shooting, avoids a lot of trouble, and saves time and cost. This is the script, it is clearly a "pictureless" movie, all aspects are very thoughtful, and any director with a certain amount of experience can make an excellent movie!!

"Xiao Wang, this script is amazing! Help me contact Li Yihua at Accord Restaurant tomorrow night, I want to meet him. Sammo Hung was very excited and shouted to his agent, there is no director who doesn't like a good script, and Sammo Hung is no exception.

"Big brother, what makes you so excited?" The agent didn't understand why Sammo Hung called so late, as a person close to Sammo Hung, he knew better that Sammo Hung didn't encounter anything and wouldn't call so late.

"It is definitely not easy for Li Yihua to write such a wonderful storyboard, and there are many places that coincide with my ideas." Hong Jinbao patted his legs.

"I know, I've already made an appointment with you tomorrow." The agent didn't expect Hong Jinbao to be so excited to see the script.

At the beginning of the lanterns, Li Yihua was invited to the Accord Restaurant, and the restaurant was full of people at this time, and many diners came to eat at this time. From a distance, this hotel feels very grandiose and magnificent, and when you walk in, you will find that the décor is very elegant, and the details are fully appreciated in this regard!

"Is that Mr. Lee?" The waiter saw Li Yihua walk in, and hurriedly walked up and asked.

Li Yihua didn't speak, nodded.

"Mr. Hong has been waiting for you in the private room for a long time, please come with me and go this way." The waiter led Li Yihua to the private room where Hong Jinbao was in front.

"Mr. Hong, I have admired your name for a long time, and it is a great honor to meet you!" Li Yihua saw the chubby Hong Jinbao, and took the initiative to stretch out his hands to Hong Jinbao.

Sammo Hung is a versatile action superstar who has worked as an actor, director and film producer. He was the "big brother" and "miscellaneous boy" in the Hong Kong film industry in the 80s of the 20th century. Sammo Hung has a wide range of film experiences, including actor, action director, director, producer, screenwriter and dragon and tiger warrior. He has won the Best Actor Award at the Hong Kong Film Awards and the Best Actor Award at the Asia-Pacific Film Festival.

As soon as he saw Li Yihua, Hong Jinbao's hand that was shaking the wine glass couldn't help but tremble, a trace of fire flashed in his eyes, and he walked forward quickly.

"Sure enough, the hero is a teenager." Hong Jinbao's eyes lit up when he saw the young Li Yihua, and he boldly stretched out his hand and patted him a few times, with an extremely enthusiastic attitude.

"Others say that the eldest brother is bold, and the rumors are true." Li Yihua looked at Hong Jinbao and muttered.

"I'm a few years older than you, call you Andy, you don't have an opinion." Hong Jinbao picked up the wine glass and handed it to Li Yihua.

Li Yihua took the wine glass handed by Sammo Hung and nodded.

"I didn't expect to write this wonderful script so young, a little bit different from what I thought, I thought it must have been written by a big name in this circle, the subject matter is novel, the storyline is very attractive, especially the martial arts design is a classic" Hong Jinbao talked about the script and gushed endlessly.

"Brother Hong, it's over, I'm just nothing, who doesn't know that you are an expert in movies." Li Yihua said modestly.

"Your idea is very good, unlike those guys who are short-sighted, they only know money in their eyes, what follow-up movies and pornography will have a big impact on society, especially after the children watch it, the crime rate will increase too much, and it is a huge harm to the society, I really don't know what these guys think, if I am a policeman, especially those self-righteous guys, it is not too much to shoot." Hong Jinbao said that the thunder was furious here, which was just the opposite of He Yan Yuese just now, and the contrast between before and after was huge, which made Li Yihua a little unacceptable.

"Brother Hong is right, as a filmmaker, you should have social responsibility, not destroy social films and endanger society." Li Yihua agreed very much.

Li Yihua and the two unconsciously discussed for two hours, and there was a tendency to speculate more and more as they talked, "Andy, I like this script very much, I decided to buy this script for 80,000 yuan, what do you think?" ”

"Big brother, I'm not writing a script for you for money, I just want to get to know my big brother." Li Yihua hurriedly put down the wine glass and refused.

"Wouldn't you be at a loss?" Sammo Hung looked puzzled.

"Brother Hong, do you dare to gamble with me?" Li Yihua did not answer Hong Jinbao's question, but said with a wine glass. "Brother Hong, you can shoot it first, and when the movie is released, I will share the dividends proportionally if the box office exceeds 10 million, I will take 3 percent for 10 million, 5 percent for 20 million, 7 percent for 30 million, 10 percent for 40 million, and so on."

"Okay, then what's not to dare, who doesn't know that I, Hong Jinbao, is the least afraid of gambling." Hong Jinbao said categorically.

"Andy, if you have time, can you come to the crew to help me, if you can, from now on you will be the assistant director of the new film." Hong Jinbao invited Li Yihua to join the crew out of love.

Li Yihua opened his mouth wide, assistant director? This surprise is too big, for Li Yihua, who did not participate in the filming of any films, I don't know how many steps have risen in the middle.

For Li Yihua, this time is also a rare opportunity, not only to make friends with Sammo Hung, but also to improve his own directing level, Li Yihua happily agreed!

Back home, Li Yihua was informed by Yang Haoran that Li Yihua's "Ethereal Journey" would be published in the new issue of "Wuxia" weekly on Monday. Looking at the model sent by Yang Haoran, Li Yihua found a small section in the back, "Ethereal Journey" was serialized here, Li Yihua could only smile bitterly when he saw this.
