"Mr. Yu, welcome to join our company!" Li Xuan looked at Yu Yunkang, who was silent in front of him, and said with a happy face.

This is really an unexpected joy, Li Xuan didn't expect that after only two months of the last conversation, Yu Yunkang of the century would come to him to apply for a job. And there has always been a lack of horror film directors in his company, and Yu Yunkang's joining can be regarded as making up for this shortcoming, which is the icing on the cake.

But in fact, it is not surprising, Yu Yunkang is different from the current Liu Zhenwei, he is a pure filmmaker, his company has closed down, how can he not find a film company to stay in.

Even after the collapse of the Century Company in later generations, Yu Yunkang has been doing this business. He couldn't find a suitable film company at first, and simply learned from McDonald Bear to open a film company under his own name. However, this film company called Yu Yunkang has only made one movie.

In the face of Li Xuan's enthusiasm, Yu Yunkang replied a little shyly: "Then I will thank Mr. Li for his kindness." ”

"Haha, no thanks, no thanks, talents like Mr. Yu, our company is as good as possible." Li Xuan smiled heartily, and then asked hesitantly: "By the way, that Mr. Liu Zhenwei Liu, he won't really sell clothes, right?" ”

“……”

Yu Yunkang frowned embarrassedly, and said helplessly: "That's what he said on the day the company closed, but in fact, I don't know why he went, this guy has even changed his phone recently, and now I can't contact him." ”

"Alas-" Li Xuan sighed and said, "It's a pity that there is one less talent in the film industry!" ”

Yu Yunkang shrugged his shoulders and responded, "Who said it wasn'......?"

Liu Zhenwei and Yu Yunkang can be said to be two people who are very compatible. The films of the Five Continents Century are often produced by the two of them together, and they are executive producers. In addition, the two of them are not weak in screenwriting skills. One is a well-known New Wave director. If the two professions are not opposed, they will look up to each other even more.

Therefore, Yu Yunkang felt very sorry for Liu Zhenwei for running to sell clothes. But obviously, since he couldn't even find Liu Zhenwei's people, there was no need to say anything else.

Two consecutive big directors have been included in the account within a month, which is definitely a thing worth celebrating for Li Xuan. However, he also had to leave a familiarization and preparation period for the two directors for about a month, so he hadn't opened a new film for them for the time being, and he was directly stuffed into a few crews to familiarize himself with the environment first.

As May draws to a close, the weather is getting hotter. The filming of "The Saint of Gambling" has gradually come to an end.

Hong Kong, Shaw Studio, Clear Water Bay.

The reduction in the production of Shaw Brothers films has been very serious, and only 6 films were released from January to the end of May 1984, and 4 of them are modern urban films. The decrease in film production and the change in the genre of films have made the Shaw Brothers set look extremely deserted at the moment.

However, in a studio on the Shaw Brothers studio, it is very lively now, and it is the crew of "The Saint of Gambling".

After Shao Yifu gave up his film career, he not only affected the Shaw Brothers Cinemas, but also the largest studio in Asia. In the past, the Shaw Brothers set was too large, except for the large piece for personal use. Some of it is rented out to TVB and the other part is rented to small outside production companies.

But now Shaw Brothers Pictures in the last five months. I've only made two movies on the set. According to the time law of Shaw Brothers' consistent shoddy production, the shooting time of these two films in the studio is estimated to add up to less than a month.

This is definitely an extremely shameful waste for Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua, who are quite stingy!

Therefore, in order to recover more tickets before Shaw Brothers Pictures died, Shao Yifu, who had been disappointed in the film market, relaxed the rental restrictions on the studio. In the past, some film companies that could not have rented a studio here have flocked to this well-equipped studio to shoot films.

For example, the best of them, Princess Jin's Yongjia and Li Xuan's film company.

Yongjia's Chen Xunqi's movements are obviously a little faster than Li Xuan's, and by the time Li Xuan ran in with the crew of "The Saint of Gambling" to set up the scene and shoot the last scene, Chen Xunqi had already left with his self-directed and self-starred "A Date with a Beauty".

This guy has been mixing well for the past two years, making two or three movies a year that little bit of a fuss. Thanks to Chen Xunqi's intuition to make movies, he is still very accurate, and he did not lose everything like Century Pictures.

The Shaw Brothers studio has been built for decades, and now this studio has been transformed into a luxurious casino, with a variety of Western-style materials to decorate the entire gambling hall. In particular, on the wall facing the main entrance of the 'casino', a large live TV screen is ingeniously 'inlaid'.

This casino is an absolutely and absolutely luxurious upgrade compared to the venue of the final battle of God of Gamblers.

The villain who played against Zhou Xingchi in "The Saint of Gambling" is the famous Hong Kong actor Qin Pei. He also has two younger brothers who are also very famous, one is named Jiang Dawei and the other is called Er Dongsheng. These three people can be regarded as a three-master, only one less than the four masters of the Xu family.

Qin Pei, an old drama bone who can easily play loyal and traitorous roles, just finished filming "Twin Brothers" for Century a few months ago. In fact, the Hong Kong film industry is neither big nor small, and everyone who turns the corner has a little friendship.

In 81, when ATV was in civil strife, Qin Pei left ATV and went to wireless and filmed a lot of TV series. However, his film contract has always been free, and he has made a lot of movies outside in recent years. He has made any movies of Golden Harvest, New Art City or Yongjia, and he can be regarded as making money everywhere.

Now, he came to Li Xuan to make money.

……

"500,000 ——!"

In front of the camera, Qin Pei played with a large stack of millions of chips, but finally said a word in a hoarse voice, and then threw out 500,000 chips.

"Click! Next group. ”

……

"Young man, don't be impulsive at first, I won't follow!"

Qin Pei held the megaphone against his throat, said a word complacently, and then took the hole card person in front of him out.

"Click, next group!"

……

"Humph——!"

Qin Pei snorted coldly, slammed on the gambling table, and said with a gloomy face: "You are fooling me?" ”

"Click, next group!"

……

"Click, next group!"

……

"Click, next group!"

……

Under the fixed lens of the same camera, Qin Pei took more than a dozen pictures continuously and at intervals.

This guy is worthy of being a veteran actor who has been acting for decades, and although he has been playing against the camera, he has continuously shown a big villain from arrogance that is sure to win to anger after defeat. This point was a little insufficient last week, in addition to a lot of NG, this continuous solo shooting also made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Click, OK, take a break, we'll continue shooting in fifteen minutes!"

As soon as Li Xuan's words fell, the entire crew suddenly relaxed. Many people sat directly on the ground and filmed all morning, and these tricksters were also tired.

However, it is estimated that only Wu Mengda is not tired, he often filmed here when he was wireless, so many people on the set knew him. Now that Wu Mengda, who has returned to his hometown, is running around to see acquaintances and reminisce about the past, he looks lively and lively.

"Python, how is Master Zhang Ce now?" Taking a free time, Li Xuan walked up to Luo Python, who also came to play tricks, and asked.

"Master Zhang, what else can he do......" Luo Python took a stack of paper and fanned the wind, and replied with a big grin: "What else can Master Zhang do besides writing scripts and making movies." ”

Li Xuan nodded and responded, "Yes, now Master Zhang's generation is old." Sighing, Li Xuan continued to ask, "What about you?" Still nesting in Shaw all day long? ”

"Forehead......" Luo Python smiled awkwardly, and said loudly: "I, I will be like this, I can't do anything else, where can I go if I am not in the Shaw Clan." ”

Li Xuan touched his chin and said with a smile: "Well......, then you didn't think about going over to shoot a TV series wirelessly?" ”

"Filming a TV series?" Luo Python asked in surprise.

"yes!" Li Xuan nodded, and replied in a deep voice: "Although the salary for filming a TV series is not much, it is much better than you playing tricks here." This Shaw Brothers set, I don't know if it will be open for a long time. ”

“……”

As soon as Li Xuan finished saying this, Luo Python fell into silence, what Li Xuan said was indeed a big truth.

A few years ago, let alone this kind of faceless trick, even if there is a famous character with a surname, Luo Python is an old man of the Shaw Brothers, and he can play a few times a year. But after the situation of Shaw Brothers deteriorated all of a sudden this year, he has only been playing tricks until now, and he has not followed up on any of the roles that show his face and have lines.

As long as he's not a fool, anyone can see that Shaw is in big trouble.

"Really going to act in a TV series?" Luo Python asked with widening his small eyes.

"Hmm!" Li Xuan nodded solemnly and sighed, "The Shaw Clan is no longer good. ”

……

"The 37th 2nd shooting, Action! Smack—"

Zhou Xingchi chuckled and shook his head, suddenly looked at Deng Liqun in front of him and said with a wink: "Time, place, what clothes are you wearing?" Chinese or Western? ”

"Click! This one is OK. Li Xuan got up from the director's chair and shouted loudly: "Now I announce that "The Saint of Gambling" is finished! (To be continued......)
