Chapter 153: Preparing for "The Raptors of the Troubled Boys."
Laughing at the next reward, Xiao Jian put away the envelope while talking politely to Run Run Shaw and the others, contacting each other's feelings, and trying to win over and appease both parties.
Run Run Shaw hopes to completely take Xiao Jian for his own use, Fang Yihua hopes to use him to fight against Yongsheng and use his talent to develop the Shaw Brothers, and Xiao Jian hopes to appease the two of them, not to destroy his own plans.
It can be said that because of all the thoughts in their hearts, the three people who were smiling on the surface were secretly carefully preparing their words, and took the opportunity of the conversation to test each other's thoughts.
After carefully dealing with it for half an hour, Xiao Jian felt that he was a little unbearable, after all, he was now 1vs2, and the two in front of him were old foxes, one was more powerful than the other, it was hard enough to deal with one, and to deal with two at the same time, that kind of taste is really only known to you if you have tried it yourself, how much energy is consumed.
Taking advantage of the gap between conversations, Xiao Jian, who couldn't stand it, quickly diverted the topic, took out a prepared script from his bag, got up and handed it to Run Run Shaw.
>> " Looking up at Xiao Jian in surprise, Run Run Shaw looked down at the script in his hand, "This is the script?" So soon, you are ready to start a new drama just after the filming of "Crazy Boy", is this too fast? ”
Hearing this, Xiao Jian smiled and said: "While you are young now and have a longing, you naturally have to work hard, so that you can have the capital to enjoy your old age when you are old in the future." ”
Glancing at Xiao Jian strangely, Fang Yihua joked: "You want to enjoy your old age now, is it too early?" Moreover, don't young people nowadays all want to play, so you are planning for decades from now. ”
Looking at Run Run Shaw, who was looking down at the script, Xiao Jian turned his head and said with a smile: "As the so-called young man doesn't work hard, the boss is sad, and if he doesn't work hard now, he won't be in a hurry to regret it when he is old." ”
>> You, who are not very old on the outside, but on the inside you are like an old man, but you are careful that no one likes you, and no one will marry you in the future. Fang Yihua also continued to joke with him.
& This is called planning ahead, and if I want to marry, the person who recommended Mao Su promises to line up from Wan Chai to Causeway Bay. ”
>> It stinks. ”
…….
For the conversation between the two, Run Run Shaw turned a deaf ear, and all his energy was focused on the script in his hand, if before "Crazy Boy", he didn't pay much attention to the script that Xiao Jian took out, then under the record of Hong Kong's first film to break through the box office of 30 million, he could not tolerate Xiao Jian's script carelessly.
After watching it for a while, Run Run Shaw raised his head and looked at Xiao Jian, frowned and said: "Ah Jian, if I'm not mistaken, this is the sequel to "Crazy Boy", do you really plan to make a sequel to "Crazy Boy"?" And so fast? ”
Stopping to talk and laugh, Xiao Jian turned his head to Run Run Shaw and nodded: "That's right, this is the second part of "Crazy Boy", and the official name is "Crazy Boy: The Dragon Crossing the River". ”
Speaking of which, looking at the two frowning people, Xiao Jian explained: "Taking advantage of the popularity of "Crazy Boy" now, we will release the news first, and then shoot it immediately, and wait until the first part is over, about a month later, I can complete the filming of the second part, and when the time comes, while the popularity is still there, I will immediately launch the second part." ”
& Isn't it too fast to launch the second part after an interval of a month? Run Run Shaw frowned and looked at Xiao Jian, a look of hesitation.
Fang Yihua on the side also spoke: "Yes, Ah Jian, the two movies are so close to each other, although it is of great benefit to publicity, but I am afraid that this is not good for the box office, after all, movies are not TV series." ”
& Every other month is too short, easy to cause aesthetic fatigue, it's better to wait for half a year, two a year is OK. Shaw then opened his mouth to explain.
Looking at the two people in front of him, Xiao Jian didn't speak immediately, in fact, the follow-up copyright of "Crazy Boy" is in his hands, if it weren't for his plan, he would have been able to get rid of Shaw Brothers and go it alone, I believe that with the popularity of "Crazy Boy", some theaters are willing to release it, but it's really unwise to fall out with TVB now, after all, his contract is still in the hands of the other party, and it won't be good for him to fall out.
After organizing the wording, Xiao Jian opened his mouth to explain: "Sixth uncle and six aunts, "Crazy Boy" is a new theme after all, in this circle, you also know that the emergence of a new theme will cause a large number of uneven films of the same type to pour in, which is not good for "Crazy Boy", so before that, we must determine the classic of "Crazy Boy". ”
Looking at the two people in front of him who were hesitant, Xiao Jian didn't continue to say anything, but just showed a resolute look, he believed that the two people in front of him would make a decision that satisfied him.
As for his true thoughts, what Xiao Jian said before is obviously not all, the reason why he decided to start filming the second part of "Crazy Boy" immediately is naturally his considerations, and even, after the second part is released, he will immediately shoot the third, fourth, fifth, and even sixth parts, and his scheduled plan is to finish filming six "Crazy Boys" within a year.
Looking at Xiao Jian with a resolute face, Fang Yihua and Run Run Shaw glanced at each other, and finally nodded a little helplessly, but their brows were tightly locked, and they still couldn't understand why Xiao Jian was in such a hurry.
Looking at the two people who should come down, Xiao Jian couldn't help but feel relieved, and the heart that he mentioned in his heart was also relaxed, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, you know, he signed a 3-year contract with TVB, and now it has been almost two years, and if he wants to complete his plan, before the other party proposes to renew the contract, he must increase his chips, and in this entertainment industry, the chips are naturally popularity and works.
For the current Xiao Jian, the "Crazy Boy" series is undoubtedly the best choice to increase his chips, you must know that in the 90s, Ekin Cheng, who played Chen Haonan, completely suppressed his popularity with six "Crazy Boys", you must know that Liu Tianwang at that time has been famous for more than ten years, just from here you can know how influential the six "Crazy Boys" are.
Of course, Xiao Jian plays the pheasant, not Chen Haonan, but you must know that the role of the pheasant is not much inferior to Chen Haonan, and more importantly, he is also a director and screenwriter as an actor, plus these two points make his gain definitely greater than playing the role of Chen Haonan.
