Chapter 506: The Lifestyle of the Little People
readx;
Wu Siyuan, who was originally running back and forth in the carriage, immediately ran to Li Mingbao after hearing Li Mingbao's call, and then sat on the chair facing Li Mingbao, and said flatteringly: "Boss Li, why are you so free to talk to a little person like me today?" If there's anything, just say it directly, can I not do it for you? ”
Seeing Wu Siyuan's appearance, Li Mingbao also admires his means of life, Li Mingbao's status is indeed much higher than Wu Siyuan, but Wu Siyuan is not good at stubble, in the Hong Kong film circle, he is also a big man, and he has been working for more than ten years, and he can be regarded as a predecessor in the rivers and lakes.

Not to mention his qualifications in the Hong Kong film industry, just talking about his age, even if he is against Li Mingbao, he doesn't need this appearance, Li Mingbao's policy of doing things, people in the Hong Kong circle understand that he can get along with those stars, not to mention an old Jianghu like Wu Siyuan, when he usually talks, at most he is just a peer, where is the use of being like Wu Siyuan, who directly puts himself on the identity of his subordinates, and loses his identity for no reason. But I have to say that Wu Siyuan's way of speaking and doing things does make outsiders feel very comfortable, it is difficult for people to pull down their faces to speak, others kneel directly, what else do you want? If you really want to bully people to death, you will end up with your own fault.
Wu Siyuan's approach, if it sounds good, it is called flattery, and if it is ugly, it is faceless and skinless, it is really at the level of Li Mingbao, and he really can't care about anything with him, there is no need for that, others are also mixed rice, why do you smash people's jobs?
"Okay, Lao Wu, we don't have to be so polite between us. Although we haven't been dealing with each other for a long time, I also know that you are a senior in the Hong Kong film industry. There's no need to be like this, you don't owe me anything, and I can't give you anything, so why bother? I'm not the kind of person who cares about etiquette, even if it's eating on the street with the small crew, it's not like I haven't done it before, so you don't have to do it at all.
You are the number one person in Hong Kong, and now you are able to enter this delegation, who doesn't have a few points? Let's just talk about it as equals, calling you over, in fact, is to ask some things, there is no need to do this, and it is not to affect your interests, why bother? Originally, Li Mingbao still wanted to talk to Wu Siyuan on official business, but Wu Siyuan talked about it all, and Li Mingbao didn't want to have a black face.
Hearing Li Mingbao's words, Wu Siyuan sighed and said: "Boss Li, you are a big boss, so you naturally have the ability to make rules, but small people like us, to put it bluntly, are characters who mix and eat in the circle, and the skill of observing words and emotions cannot be put down at all, otherwise, you may get into trouble at some point, and when the time comes, the job will be smashed, and there will be problems with eating."
Kuhaha also has his own way of survival, the bigwigs in the Hong Kong film circle are not as easy to talk as Boss Li, and it is not easy to eat mixed rice, so I am doing this to ensure safety, Boss Li has Boss Li's way of survival, a little person like me, there is also a small person's living state, you give face, I can live a look, but not everyone gives face like you.
Especially now that the world of Hong Kong movies is no longer something that a small person like me can mix, Boss Li is a person who does big things, so naturally I don't know how difficult it is for us little people to live, although Hong Kong used to be dominated by the three major companies, but how much can I leave some soup for the people below, but now although the world is more prosperous, but people like us who can't be high or low, life will be difficult. Therefore, pretending to be a grandson is also a way to live, so you have something to eat, right? ”
As soon as Wu Siyuan's words came out, Li Mingbao knew that Wu Siyuan was "confiding his true feelings", but Li Mingbao is not a gangster now, he has been dealing with the old foxes for a long time, so he naturally knows that Wu Siyuan's so-called true feelings are actually nothing, if you really believe Wu Siyuan's words, Li Mingbao will become a real fool.
If Li Mingbao didn't know what kind of person Wu Siyuan was, maybe Li Mingbao would have to sigh about Wu Siyuan's life, and then help Wu Siyuan at the right time, they are all people in the Hong Kong circle, since they can meet, it is fate, let him earn a little more, it's always good.
But Li Mingbao knows what kind of character Wu Siyuan is, although he has pitiful places, but there is no place to hate, the so-called poor people must have hateful places, and he is talking about people like Wu Siyuan, so his true feelings are not really good for Li Mingbao. Not only is it not big, but it makes Li Mingbao feel a little bored, really playing himself like a chick?
"Okay, Old Wu, don't tell me pity like this anymore. I know a lot about you, and I know a lot about the inside and outside, so don't blow these things to me, I called you over today, not for you to play me as a chick. I just want to ask you something, is it okay to be simple? Li Mingbao said impatiently.
To say that Wu Siyuan is also an unlucky bastard, if he simply talks about his difficulties, Li Mingbao may not reach out, after all, Wu Siyuan also has a status in Hong Kong, although his strength is not very strong, but he will drill camps, and he will mix well in the back, and he is quite beautiful in front of people, Li Mingbao does not mind forming a good relationship with him.
But it shouldn't, it shouldn't, Wu Siyuan shouldn't have brought out some topics that were not easy to be involved, although what he said was that he seemed to be very bitter, but Li Mingbao couldn't hear that Wu Siyuan had the intention of using Li Mingbao as a gun, and was bullied by the big guy, so he asked Li Mingbao to help.
Li Mingbao is quite aware of this public case, so he is more unhappy with Wu Siyuan's words, if he still had the intention of beating Zou Wenhuai before, but others Zou Wenhuai is now very stable, concentrating on managing his one-acre and three-point land, quite honest, for a Wu Siyuan who can't beat with eight poles, and Zou Wenhuai will make trouble again, Li Mingbao will not do such a stupid thing as long as he has brains. So Wu Siyuan is purely looking for trouble, thinking that there is still a big conflict between Li Mingbao and Zou Wenhuai, and then he is willing to be Li Mingbao's pawn. But the problem is that Li Mingbao doesn't need such a thing at all, so Wu Siyuan's thoughts are in vain, and he disgusted Li Mingbao, which can be regarded as more than worth the loss.
How else to say that Wu Siyuan is a character who can drill camps? Hearing Li Mingbao's words, Wu Siyuan understood that his little careful thinking about Li Mingbao was useless at all, so he immediately changed the topic and said: "Boss Li is right, I talked too much just now, and I caused you trouble." Just when I didn't say anything, if Boss Li wants to hear something, please say it. ”
Seeing the speed of Wu Siyuan's transformation, Li Mingbao also understood why Wu Siyuan would mix well in the future, and he could still have the last laugh after so many hardships, with such a face, it was strange that he was not successful.
"You guy, I still understand, you can be regarded as a character who can't afford to be unprofitable. I'm afraid there is something to do when I go to the mainland this time, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't be a member of your entourage, what are you going to do, if it's not too secretive, can you tell me? Li Mingbao opened his mouth and asked the topic.
"It turns out that this is what Boss Li wants to ask, I thought it was. I went to the mainland this time, in fact, it was to take a ride, Boss Li also knew that I was a person, and the relationship with the mainland was not bad, and this time I went over to make a movie together.
Although the development of the film industry on the mainland side is not comparable to that of Hong Kong, the mainland also has the advantages of the mainland, just a venue, it is not the effect that the movies in Hong Kong can make, there is no kind of terrain, there is no need to set up like Shaw Brothers, plus the actors on the mainland side are very cheap, and the cost of making movies has a great advantage, although I can't eat anything in the mainland market, but now Hong Kong, isn't there a circulation port? I planned to go to the mainland and cooperate with the film studios there, make some movies to sell, make small profits and quick turnover, and make a lot of money.
Boss Li, do you also want to co-produce movies with the mainland? If that's the case, then I'm familiar with it, and if there's anything you do, just tell me and promise to do it properly for you. "Wu Siyuan said this, he looked like he could rely on me for everything.
Hearing Wu Siyuan's words, Li Mingbao was a little curious: "You used to make movies together?" If you do this, you are not afraid that the Taiwan market will be completely gone? Li Mingbao is now a big man in the industry, and naturally understands that throughout the 80s, there were many people who co-produced movies with the mainland, but they were all making small fights.
If nothing else, it is because Taiwan and the mainland do not deal with each other, especially for the movie, Taiwan has come up with a strategy of having the mainland without Taiwan, and Taiwan without the mainland, although the means are a little ruthless, but the effect is quite obvious.
Although now because of the emergence of circulation ports and the threat of Taiwan, Hong Kong is no longer as afraid as before, but co-producing movies with the mainland is still not the mainstream, the main reason is that the mainland makes movies, Hong Kong suffers some losses, some movies are not compatible with the mainland, and there are only a few films that can be co-produced.
Isn't everyone co-making movies just to make money? Of course, the most important thing is that all co-produced films, the mainland market, Hong Kong people basically have no share, even if the mainland makes a lot of money, Hong Kong can't get a dime, this is the key.
The key is that no matter how good the mainland market is, Hong Kong will not get a dime, and the people in Hong Kong will naturally not like it so much. And co-production movies are not very suitable for those large film companies, small companies don't care about political influence, but big companies have to care, Uncle Six caused a lot of trouble when he released Shaw Brothers movies in Hong Kong leftist cinemas, let alone co-productions.
