Chapter 206. Director "Xu Lao Wei"

If you want to shoot a movie in Hong Kong~Hong Kong, you must have a company to invest, but with the company's investment, you may not be able to start filming, because the funds must still be in place.

The investor of "New Shu Mountain Swordsman" is Golden Harvest Film Company, as one of the three leading Hong Kong films in the early 80s, they invested in the filming of the special effects drama directed by Xu Ke this time, and they are also determined to make a big lineup.

However, when director Xu Ke explained that he had to introduce Hollywood computer special effects for post-production to shoot this drama, Golden Harvest was stumped, why, because it costs more money to introduce special effects, and those Hollywood bastards like lions to open their mouths the most, what should I do?! This drama has already been launched, can't you get over this hurdle?

As the president of Golden Harvest, the movie tycoon Zou Wenhuai thought of a way - to attract foreign aid!

Pick, share the benefits, and share the risks! It is impossible for a person to earn all the money in the world, rather than this, it is better for us to do "partnership business".

As we all know, Hong Kong ~ Hong Kong is known as the Hollywood of the East, but who knows, in fact, the most invested in filming Hong Kong ~ Hong Kong movies are the businessmen on the treasure island. In the 80s, everyone was so rich that everyone was rich, but they didn't know where to throw a lot of money, and the local movies were too bad, it was better to buy a house and land than to buy a big movie, so everyone locked their eyes on Hong Kong ~ Hong Kong movies.

It can be said that more than 300 of the 500 movies in Hong Kong ~ Hong Kong every year are invested and filmed by Baodao people. Therefore, Zou Wenhuai is going to hold an exhibition of the film and cast of "Shu Mountain", shoot some of the highlights of this drama into a film first, and then gather Hong Jinbao, Zheng Shaoqiu, Lin Qingxia and other big names to come to cheer, and I am not afraid that those TW guys will not buy it? !

At about eight o'clock in the evening of the same day, Chen Xiaotang came to the agreed place on time according to the agreement with Zheng Shaoqiu - Hong Kong~The most famous Li Palace Theater in Hong Kong.

When you come here, you can see the whole theater lit up, and the huge and dazzling crystal glass in front of you reflects the colorful light.

At the entrance of the theater, the brightly lit play card reads: "The romantic and handsome Zheng Shaoqiu, the peerless jade girl Lin Qingxia, jointly dedicate the Xianxia production - "New Shu Mountain Swordsman"! ”

Under the play card, the story content of "Shushan" is written, as well as the amazing lineup.

"The master of the Pearl Mansion is in the world, this film will take you into the world of magical fairies and enjoy the joy of the confrontation between gods and demons; The blood demon was born, and Ziqing won the championship. Combine your swords and show your might! This film has a strong lineup, Hong Jinbao, Zheng Shaoqiu, Lin Qingxia, Liu Songren, Yuan ~ Biao, Li Saifeng...... Elite! ”

It looks like it's true. I didn't expect that I, Chen Xiaotang, would be so lucky to be able to witness a feat in the martial arts era of Hong Kong films. As soon as he thought that he could join this film, Chen Xiaotang was a little excited.

In his previous life, Chen Xiaotang liked this magical martial arts film very much. He knew that this film adapted from Huanzhu Hug was the first magical martial arts film in Hong Kong ~ Hong Kong to hire the American "Star Wars" stunt team to support the stunt shots. It is of epoch-making significance. The cast was extremely popular. Including: Zheng Shaoqiu, Lin Qingxia, Hong Jinbao, Yuan Biao, Xu Shaoqiang, Weng Qianyu, Liu Songren, Li Saifeng, Meng Hai, etc.

However, Chen Xiaotang watched it a few times, and felt that this movie was a bit messy because there were too many characters and clues in the plot, and many places could not be explained. However, the visual effects of the whole film are outstanding, and the art design and cast styling are also extraordinary. Some of the action scenes are so brilliant that they are breathtaking. At the same time, Xu Ke said through the mouth of the people in the play: "The view of the door is enough to bring disaster to the country and the people", which also moved people.

Of course, looking at the history of Hong Kong martial arts films, Chen Xiaotang feels that it is already very good to be able to make this kind of film with extremely strong gods and demons in one go under the condition of backward equipment and technology in the 80s. In contrast, after the rise of mainland movies in the previous life, there were rich and people, but they couldn't shoot things of this level, and finally made a "Shushan 2" but had a bad reputation, I really don't know if Xu Kelianbo is old or he is Xu Lang. Or, the atmosphere of the whole Chinese film has changed qualitatively.

At this moment. The whole hall was bustling with activity. Most of them are businessmen who speak Hokkien TW, and most of them are investment film dealers, and this time they were invited to watch the film of Golden Harvest in order to invest.

Chen Xiaotang looked around, but he didn't see Zheng Shaoqiu, and he didn't know anyone, he didn't understand the language, so he couldn't stand stupidly and be treated as a fool, so he had to stand near the table first and watch the bartender pour champagne.

Just like you can see in the previous film, stack the wine glasses into a tower. The wine is poured down from the highest glass to form a waterfall, which is known as a champagne tower.

Although Chen Xiaotang has participated in a very large banquet, he has never paid attention to this scene. It's hard not to be attracted.

The bartender poured carefully. I didn't realize that Chen Xiaotang was looking at him at all. until all the cups are full. He looked up. found that Chen Xiaotang was looking at him, so he smiled slightly and said, "Sir, just take a cup!" ”

Chen Xiaotang smiled. Because he suddenly remembered the bad scene of the police officer played by Leung Ka-yan in Chow Xingchi's movie "Year of the Dragon" taking champagne glasses. Honestly, this thing is a bit of a work of art. I can't bear to spoil it, not to mention that there are technical requirements for taking champagne glasses. So Rong Shao waved his hand and said, "Thank you, I will drink." ”

"Huh!" A strange laugh suddenly came from behind him. Chen Xiaotang turned around a little annoyed, but saw a strange-looking, somewhat "monkey" man looking at him with a smile. In a trance, I felt a little familiar. Take a closer look, it turns out to be the leader of future martial arts movies - Xu Ke!

"I'm sorry. I couldn't help but laugh out loud just now. Xu Ke said embarrassedly. Because I really can't figure out how a man can't drink, especially such a wonderful champagne? ”

Chen Xiaotang: "What's so strange about this? ”

Xu Ke: "From a psychological point of view, you are lying in order to hide your timidity in some way; Behaviorally, you're deliberately telling people that you're afraid to take this champagne towerβ€”"

Chen Xiaotang was speechless, this Xu Ke has a lot of potential.

"But you say so much, I don't seem to have grasped the point, I can't take the champagne tower, what does it matter to you?"

"Well said, it's not a thing for me! However, I'm curious, so many people are gathering to chat, and you're the only one watching the pouring of wine, how weird?! ”

"There's nothing curious, I'm here to find Zheng Shaoqiu......"

"Find him, what do you want him to do?" Xu Keqi said.

"Find him to introduce me to the crew of "Shushan", ......"

"Hahaha, do you know who I am?"

"Of course you know, you are the great director Xu Ke!"

"Heh, you know you're still so calm?"

"I'm just here to play a small role, and I'm not the male lead, what are you afraid of?"

"Heh, you don't seem to care about this 'little role' scene!"

"Wrong, no matter what I play, I will do my best."

"Well said, I just don't know how you will do it?"

"Just try it?"

"You're very proud - do you know that everyone in this show is a big name?"

"Yes." Chen Xiaotang felt that this Xu Ke was not only thirty-eight, but also very verbose.

"You know that you are still so confident?" Xu Ke was surprised by Chen Xiaotang's arrogance, at this time, some reporters came around, Xu Ke coughed, pulled his shirt, and said, "See, these people are all here to interview me...... Look at the point-" After speaking, he said: "Hello everyone, I'm ......"

But before he could finish speaking, he saw that those reporters made an uproar, and they all bypassed him and surrounded Chen Xiaotang.

Xu Ke immediately became a mud couple.

What's going on?!

"Mr. Chen, I've given me an interview!"

"yes, don't dodge anymore!"

"Say a few words!"

……… These reporters said it to Chen Xiaotang almost in a pleading tone. Xu Ke, who came to his senses, was thundered again, what kind of plane is he doing, and there is such an interview? ! It's not that Xu Ke didn't know that Chen Xiaotang sang a red song, the problem is that he didn't expect this young man to be so sought after!

I don't know when Zheng Shaoqiu came to Xu Ke's side and said, "How is it, that Chen Xiaotang?" ”

"Hehe, laughing, can I call you that?"

"Of course!" Chen Xiaotang showed a super affinity.

"Laughing, we also want to know, is it true that you shattered the glass with your voice?"

"yes, we're all curious, is it true? I've heard that this kind of power can only be achieved by those very powerful tenors! "The reporters were excited, and everybody seemed curious about that.

Not far away, the TW businessmen who were originally invited to watch the film were very surprised to see such a scene. One of them asked the person next to him: "What's wrong with these people, aren't they here to interview us about investing in films, why are they chattering around that young man?" ”

"yes, is that young man famous?" Another TW guy said.

The person next to him was a "jack of all trades", so he said: "Bosses, you don't know this - the young man named Chen Xiaotang was originally a wireless artist, but after a song last night, he is now very popular!" ”

"How red?"

"How red? Like this-" Know-it-all picked up a glass of red wine, "No, it's more red than this red wine, in short, this time even the great director Xu Ke put down the shelf and begged the other party to join "Shushan", didn't you see the way he begged just now? Who is Xu Ke, don't you need me to explain more, right? ”

"Oh, I see! With such a popular star joining, we will be more assured to invest! ”

"As long as he joins, we will definitely support this play!"

The merchants became excited.
