At this time, the mainland had not yet formed a complete expression of "one country, two systems", and Lin Xi encouraged Lin Shu to take the opportunity to take the opportunity to meet Deng to take the initiative to put it forward, in addition to helping Lin Shu make a sum of political capital, but also because this is the inevitable path that Hong Kong will take in the future, and the significance of being proposed by a Hong Kong person first is naturally different from that of the mainland side first.
Although this pushed Lin Shu directly to the forefront, Lin Xi could still advance or retreat, and originally he had the idea of asking the mainland and Taiwan to take it all, and he also left himself a third way, that is, the United States.
Because of Bruce Lee's survival, Hong Kong movies currently occupy a place in the United States, and Lin Xi still holds the card of Cheng Long in his hand, and when the audience is tired of watching Bruce Lee's hard-core kung fu movies, it is time for humorous kung fu movies to show their strength.
But Lin Xi didn't expect that before the card in his hand could be played, Xu Guanwen came to the door first.
Xu Guanwen first looked for Zhao Yazhi, because the first ghost horse comedy "Half a Pound and Eight Taels" he filmed after he defected to Jiahe was the heroine of Zhao Yazhi, although Zhao Yazhi withdrew from the entertainment industry because of his marriage, and the two parties had no contact, but there was always such a relationship, and it didn't seem abrupt to come to the door.
When they met, Xu Guanwen also joked that he had known that Zhao Yazhi would come back after marriage, and he should have signed her directly to his company.
Of course, Zhao Yazhi knew that Xu Guanwen was complimenting himself, and after a few polite words, he asked the secretary to invite Lin Xi over.
Xu Guanwen was not sure about Zhao Yazhi's status in Oriental Film and Television before, but now that Zhao Yazhi is just a spokesperson, it is Lin Xi who is really in charge.
Lin Xi is no stranger to Xu Guanwen, he just watched a movie of Xu Guanwen not long ago, and used it to guide Zhou Xingchi to develop in the direction of comedian, not to mention that he has more memories of Xu Guanwen's works in his mind.
Xu Guanwen saw Lin Xi for the first time, although Lin Xi would be mentioned in Hong Kong newspapers every once in a while, but since the Rémy Martin advertising incident, some media posted secretly taken photos of Lin Xi to the newspaper, and was sued by Lin Xi for infringing personal portrait rights, photos of Lin Xi rarely appeared in newspapers again, so that most people still only know Lin Xi's name.
Lin Xi is very young, Xu Guanwen has been mentally prepared for this, but this young man has deep eyes that do not match his age, and through the flat glasses, it is even more incomprehensible.
After the host and guest were seated, Zhao Yazhi took two cups of coffee from the secretary at the door and put them in front of Lin Xi and Xu Guanwen, and then stood behind Lin Xi himself, as if he was his assistant.
In fact, if Xu Guanwen hadn't come to find her nominally, Zhao Yazhi might not have stayed, because in her opinion, no matter how important the matter was, it would be enough to leave it to Lin Xi to make decisions, and she would have always just done some work to assist from the side.
Xu Guanwen didn't know this, and Zhao Yazhi would naturally touch him by doing this.
The most direct result is that Xu Guanwen no longer regards Lin Xi as a person many years younger than himself, but starts this conversation in a tone between his peers.
"I heard that Miss Zhao was helping Lin Sheng do things before, and I wanted to come over to congratulate her, on the one hand, she was riddled with trivial matters, and on the other hand, there was no good reason, I recently watched "The Peerless Double Pride" directed by Lin Sheng, and I really had a big surprise, I didn't expect that the addition of comedy elements in martial arts dramas would have such a good response, and I admired Lin Sheng tightly in my heart, so I came here to ask for advice this time."
Xu Guanwen spoke very politely, and before he could say anything serious, he gave Lin Xi a high hat first.
Lin Xi was clear about the reason why everyone carried the sedan chair, so he put down the coffee cup and said: "Mr. Xu may not know that "The Peerless Double Pride" was filmed like that, in fact, I didn't have a bottom at the beginning, but later I was inspired and encouraged by Mr. Xu's movie, and finally made up my mind that if this drama can be successful, it is also Mr. Xu's credit." ”
"And this thing, it was a surprise." Xu Guanwen smiled. After seeing that Lin Xi was very old and spicy, he had no intention of going around the bend again, and said directly: "Lin Sheng has already filmed two TV series in succession, and both have achieved great results, have you ever thought about making a movie?" ”
"Don't hide it from Mr. Xu, it's just an expedient measure for me to make TV series, I felt that I couldn't control it very well when I went directly to make movies, and I didn't know the place of life when I first entered this industry, so I wanted to practice through guò TV dramas first. If there is a suitable opportunity, of course, I still want to turn to making movies, after all, making movies can make more money than making TV series. ”
When Lin Xi said this, Xu Guanwen couldn't help but nodded.
Many people talk about movies, and they talk about artistic pursuits, but in fact, these things are all false, in Xu Guanwen's view, a movie that can make money is a good movie, especially for filmmakers like them who are not professionals, it is really not as direct to talk about art as it is to talk about money.
"Since Lin Sheng has such an idea, then I will also say it bluntly, I watched "The Peerless Double Pride" before, and I was very interested in the actor who played Xiao Yuer, and then I was thinking, can I find a movie to cooperate with everyone once."
Lin Xi said without thinking about it: "It is definitely his luck to be favored by Mr. Xu, and I will definitely have no problem here." ”
Maybe it was because he answered too simply, but it made Xu Guanwen a little worried.
"Lin Sheng, don't worry, listen to what I say, my idea is to find a movie to work with, but now I don't have any good themes in my hands, so I hope the script can be provided by you, Lin Sheng."
"That's right." Lin Xi learned the lesson just now, pretended to think about it for a while and said, "It's okay, I can give it a try, I don't know what Mr. Xu's requirements for the theme and content of the script are?" ”
"There's no limit to the subject matter, but it has to be a comedy."
Xu Guanwen mentioned one first.
Lin Xi nodded after hearing this, indicating that there was no problem.
"Then the role can't be too few, the protagonist can just be the Zhou Xingchi of me and Lin Sheng's company, but there must also be other roles, because Lin Sheng also knows that my movies are generally four brothers in battle, and the second brother is responsible for the behind-the-scenes does not need to be counted, and then the other two younger brothers I hope they can arrange a role for them."
When Xu Guanwen said this, Lin Xi raised his hand to signal that there was a problem and needed to be interrupted.
"Can Mr. Xu Guanjie accept to play a supporting role? And it's just the kind that doesn't have many scenes. ”
After all, Xu Guanjie's identity in the music world is there, whether it is out of respect or other considerations, it is necessary for Lin Xi to confirm it.
Xu Guanwen obviously also thought about this problem, and replied directly: "As long as the script is good enough, let him come over and make a cameo." ”
Lin Xi nodded, indicating that there was no problem on his side, and asked Xu Guanwen to continue to talk about his requirements.
"If I can, of course I'm saying if, I hope that the script should not only cater to the Hong Kong audience, but also preferably adapt to some of the tastes of overseas audiences, such as the United States."
Although Xu Guanwen put this request last, and did not force Lin Xi to do it, it was obvious that this was his main intention this time.
After listening to Xu Guanwen's request, Lin Xi immediately thought of a movie in his heart.
