Chapter 143: Drama
The cold war between the two beauties Qi Lei and Li Lin is still going on, and the time has come to February 26, 2002, which is also the day of the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month.
Because after the beginning of the year, the preparation of the filming plan for Qi Lei's two new dramas "Fairy Sword" and "Martial Arts", which the company is responsible for, is basically about to step into the formation of the crew.
Therefore, as the initiator of this new drama, Qi Lei and many workers in his film and television studio naturally cannot be compared with the company!
So on this day, Qi Lei and his agent Ah King took Lin Chiling, who is the secretary, and Li Bingbing, the heroine and No. 1 actor in the new drama "Danger", and the four of them quietly took a plane to Hong Kong.
This time, their main task is to determine the starring lineup and filming lineup of the new drama "Boxing"! And their target is Jackie Chan, who has returned to China the day before yesterday, and his family class......
After a night's rest, the next day the four of them went to the Repulse Bay Typhoon Shelter at the southern tip of Hong Kong Island.
Walking into a clubhouse, the exquisite decoration and simple and warm furnishings inside made the four of them praise Qi Lei: taste! ~~
This is a private club located near the sea in Repulse Bay, and generally speaking, if the person who greets you does not have an acquaintance or a special identification marker, they will not even want to enter the door.
Therefore, it has become a place where celebrities and wealthy businessmen in Hong Kong are most willing to come to consume.
And today, the place where agent Ah King and Jackie Chan met is in this clubhouse.
After all, regardless of what will happen to Revival first, just Jackie Chan himself. It would be strange if all kinds of media reporters or gossip paparazzi in Hong Kong knew that they had returned to Hong Kong, and they would not make a collective effort to play their own news!
This is the impact that the pride of Hong Kong action movies and the title of international superstar that has become famous in Hollywood have had on the artists themselves.
Therefore, it is no wonder that Jackie Chan did not hesitate to spend money to invite Qi Lei and others to stay away from the city and go to the club in Repulse Bay to meet!
It was still early, and Qi Lei and the others arrived at the club half an hour early. However, waiting is not as boring as imagined, but endlessly interesting.
Since it can be loved by many celebrities and wealthy businessmen, this club certainly has its own unique and attractive places!
There is a bar with free Internet access around the clock, a variety of popular, classic and expensive wine services, as well as a bookcase with a view of the world, a relaxing hot spring bathing and massage center, a sports field for leisure and entertainment, and a chess and card room......
As long as you can think of what you have in a high-end clubhouse, it's all here. This makes Reviver and his party, who rarely have time to visit this kind of place so luxuriously, all feel a novel experience!
……………………
Not long after Qi Lei and they chatted, Jackie Chan arrived as scheduled!
However, he did not come to the appointment alone, but a group of 6 people came to the seat where Qi Lei was located: "Hallo, hello, Qi Sheng!" I'm so glad to see you, and welcome to Hong Kong. ”
"Hello big brother, I'm so happy that I can see you one day!"
As soon as they met, Jackie Chan took the lead in stepping forward and shaking hands with Qi Lei, who stood up at the same time to greet him, and greeted him. (PS: Don't mind the above two sentences of the cloud to say hello in the vernacular, because although Jackie Chan understands Chinese, he rarely uses it, especially when he works in private or usually meets friends, everyone understands.) )
After that, Jackie Chan smiled at Qi Lei and pointed to a few people behind him: "I don't think I need to introduce you, you should also know these people behind me, right?" (The following dialogue will be expressed in the Chinese language)
"Recognize! ~" Qi Lei replied excitedly: "I am fortunate to be able to meet the three eldest brothers among the seven little blessings in the Hong Kong film industry at once, this is my honor!" ”…,
"Hehe......" Hearing Qi Lei's words, everyone smiled knowingly.
"Hehe, it's really terrifying! Not bad, not bad......" Jackie Chan smiled and praised, and then then introduced the people behind him: "This is Yuan Biao, this is Sammo Hung, this is Zou Zhaolong from the Hong family class, and this is our friend Zhou Billy......"
And after hearing Jackie Chan's introductions one by one, Qi Lei obediently used the tone of "brother, brother" of his juniors, and greeted several people one by one, which really made Sammo Hung feel very useful!
Then Qi Lei also introduced his group to Jackie Chan and the people they knew, and after a polite greeting, everyone found a place to sit down.
I have to say that the people of Hong Kong do not have as many flamboyances as some Chinese people in terms of entertainment. As soon as Jackie Chan sat down, he said bluntly: "That's the case, about the copy of the script and the requirements you sent me some time ago, after I read it all over in the United States, I felt the need to return to China to talk to you about cooperation in person." I don't know if Qi Sheng did you bring the script here, let's talk about it in person!? ”
"Of course......" After Qi Lei answered, Ah King, the agent on the side, took out an advertorial jiàn folder from the bag he brought with him, and handed it to Qi Lei for him to pass it to Jackie Chan.
After that, Jackie Chan spent more than ten minutes carefully reading the script. During the period, I was chattering about something while watching, and there were a few movements in my hands as if I was simulating something.
After reading the script, Jackie Chan looked up at Qi Lei and asked, "Don't you mind if I show the script to my two brothers?" ”
This is said very tactfully and thoughtfully, which fully reflects Jackie Chan's social communication ability as a big brother in the entertainment industry!
You must know that although the people who can sit here, they will have something to do with this play. But these relationships are still a fraction of what they do when compared to direct starring or direct partnerships.
In the domestic entertainment industry, although it does not have perfect laws and industry operating norms like Hollywood in the United States, it is possible to control whether cooperation can be reached in the execution and operation of a drama on matters such as actors' contracts.
But at least some of the default rules will still exist, as the saying goes, there are no rules!
At this time, Qi Lei replied: "Of course, I am also looking forward to a few big brothers helping me read the script, I hope your opinions will help me!" ”
Then there was silence for a while......
After Jackie Chan and his entourage had all read and seen through the script, Jackie Chan said eloquently: "Ah Lei, I have read your script and my two brothers and sisters." Seriously, that's great!! …… However, after reading the script, we have some questions that we would like to ask you. ”
"Please speak~"
So Jackie Chan took the script and opened it, pointed to one of the plots and asked Qi Lei: "It is undeniable that this script is very good, but what we are a little puzzled about is what are your requirements for the interpretation and filming of this street chase and fight in this play?" For example, when Ah Tian was chased and killed by a group of people, how did he quickly pass through the bustling market with many crowds? There is also a section of continuous crossing of the road, a car, an off-road jeep, a bicycle, and escape the chase of the action scene, how do you arrange the action? (Several questions are automatically omitted below)...... Can you tell us a few more about these issues? ”
"No problem!" Qi Lei knew why Jackie Chan asked this question and why it was important. So he also told everyone about this play: "First of all, I want to make it clear to you that "Boxer" is completely different from our previous action movies, a new school of action movies! What's new about it lies in the truth, the absolute truth, and I hope you will remember that.
As for some of the questions about the classic street chase in the film, before answering, I want to ask if I know how many big brothers know about parkour? ”
"Parkour!?" Hearing Qi Lei's words, not only Jackie Chan and the others were puzzled, but even Qi Lei's agent Ah King and the three were full of doubts.
So, everyone thought in unison: parkour? Motion? …… What is this!?
PS: Phew...... Finally, it's three more!
After the big guy is comfortable watching it, remember not to forget to vote for a few more chapters on the cloud! If there's a tip, it's even more perfect!
In September, it has been more than two shifts on the cloud for three days. After that, I will also insist on working the cloud, and I hope that all the big people can support me and support the superstar!!
Thank you! ……
