Chapter 208: The Turbulent Film Industry
In the TVB President's Office, Fang Yihua, who came back from the press conference of "The True Color of Heroes", was slowly telling what he had seen and heard before, as well as his own thoughts.
After listening, Run Run Shaw frowned slightly, his mind turned quickly, and he thought carefully about Xiao Jian's intentions, but it was only an observation of others, and it was also a time full of countless misinformation, even if he thought about it, he couldn't figure out what Xiao Jian's intentions were.
However, although he was curious about Xiao Jian's purpose, he didn't have to know, after all, he couldn't stop what Xiao Jian wanted to do, and he didn't need to stop it, he just needed to know what he was doing.
"It seems that this kid attaches great importance to "The True Color of Heroes" and this Christmas file." Run Run Shaw muttered to himself, his mind raced, and after a while, he raised his head and ordered: "Since the little guy has taken over the propaganda, then notify him, and the publicity of "The True Colors of Heroes" will be handed over to him, whether it is TVB or Shaw Brothers, he will not pay attention to it." ”
"Huh?" Hearing this, Fang Yihua couldn't help but pause, and asked in surprise: "Sixth brother, are you going to ban him?" Is it that important? ”
Glancing at Fang Yihua in front of him, Run Run Shaw couldn't help but sigh, now he also found that he had made a wrong move, and the helper in front of him was okay to deal with other people, but it was impossible to deal with a cunning figure like Xiao Jian, which could be seen from being defeated by many parties a year ago.
As for the information brought back by the other party, he no longer reported any hope, I am afraid that most of it was specially shown to him by Xiao Jian, and after this incident, his own temptation may have also been discovered by the other party.
Although he didn't care much about this temptation, this time he missed the move and lost.
Although losing to Xiao Jian made him feel a little depressed, but. After all, the person in front of him is not his subordinate, but his pillow person, and there are some things that he can't say, so as not to embarrass him. However, there are some things that still have to be said, so as not to make the other party think crookedly.
"Do you think that with his status and fame, he can be blocked?"
Listening to Run Run Shaw's words, Fang Yihua couldn't help but be stunned. After a while, it dawned on her, and now she realized that Xiao Jian was no longer the little guy who could be suppressed by her everywhere, the other party was now the most powerful commercial director in Hong Kong, a first-class star, and a well-known novelist.
The other party's status and strength are already better than their own!
After thinking clearly, Fang Yihua couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, the world is impermanent, so impermanent that she doesn't know what expression to use to express her inner thoughts now, but the frustration that emerged from her heart made her speechless.
Lost!
Since two years ago. She fought with Xiao Jian, she didn't win once in a year, and in the end she was forced to back down, at that time she could still compete with it, but now she understands that the open and secret fight that has lasted for two years has come to an end, although she is unwilling, but she lost.
After thinking clearly, Fang Yihua only felt weak. She didn't want to pay attention to other things, and she didn't want to pay attention to Shaw's fighting with Xiao Jian, and now she just wanted to go home and sleep.
Fight that demon... I'm so tired!
Looking at Fang Yihua with a tired face, a touch of distress flashed in Run Run Shaw's eyes. immediately got up and comforted him, and then let him go home and rest well.
"Hey!" After sending Fang Yihua away, only in his office, Run Run Shaw rubbed his head a little tiredly, and his brows were tightly locked.
The current Hong Kong film industry can be described as a scuffle, and the old ones are Golden Harvest and New Art City. And the newly rising Debao and Yongsheng should not be underestimated, and the dozens of small and medium-sized companies are even more headaches for him.
In a certain aspect, Golden Harvest and New Art City are the most indifferent to him, and Debao is nothing, but after Yongsheng took over more than half of the theater from him, he did not shoot the film directly for most of the year, but just tested the water with common sense, giving people a feeling of playing tickets, but these are only superficial.
As far as he knows, the other party has secretly won a lot of theaters, obviously wanting to form another theater chain, and has secretly contacted Wang Jing, another well-known director of Shaw Brothers at present in addition to Xiao Jian, many times, from which it can be seen that the other party's ambitions are not small.
And now Xiao Jian, the trump card in his hand, is a little restless, which really gives him a headache, if these things are placed in 20 years, even if it is 10 years ago, he will not care too much, but after all, he is almost 80 years old this year, and his energy can no longer be compared with before.
"Whew-" exhaled a breath of turbidity, the exhaustion on his face subsided, and a trace of domineering emanated from his thin body.
"Now is not the time to serve the old, come on, come on, let me tell you, what is ginger or old spicy." Run Run Shaw's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and a domineering spirit surged out of his body, bringing people an infinite sense of depression.
The nearly 80-year-old entertainment tycoon has also begun to enter the water, and the water in the Hong Kong film industry has also begun to surge, and one careless person can be strangled.
…….
Shaw Brothers Studios, the crew of "The True Color of Heroes", after the press conference, the entire crew began to get busy and prepared to start filming.
Xiao Jian is already like an arm for the current crew, and there is no need to pay too much attention to small things like arranging scenes, so he sat here and watched the script after the press conference.
For the classic role of Brother Xiaoma, Zhou Runfa was very successful in covering up in his previous life, so although he didn't want to surpass the other party, he couldn't be worse than him, so now as long as he has time, he will carefully figure out the role, and begin to try to substitute himself into the role.
Using the role of Brother Xiao Ma to make a breakthrough in his acting skills is the goal that Xiao Jian has set for himself, so his devotion to this role is unique to him.
In order to understand this character, he even wrote a 300,000-word personal biography to facilitate his understanding of this character, of course, this biography he also intends to use for movie promotion, which can be described as killing birds with one stone.
After this period of research, and after reading the original work, Xiao Jian is already confident that his version of Brother Xiao Ma will definitely not be worse than the original, as for whether it can be surpassed, it is really unlikely, after all, the original version is classic enough, not so easy to surpass.
"Is that okay with what you just said?" (To be continued.) )
