In the eyes of this person in the wireless artist department, Li Mingbao's choice today is really a little ignorant. They were rare and generous, not only did they take out the information of the red star, but they also took it very completely, and changed anyone, even if it was Zou Wenhuai and Zou Tycoon, they had to drool when they saw such a situation, and they had to think about how to catch those red people into their hands.

This is definitely not his imagination, but a fact. In today's Hong Kong entertainment industry, it is definitely Shaw Brothers Wireless that holds the contract for doing many actors, not Golden Harvest and some other companies. In the hands of Uncle Six, there is a weapon like wireless to control the resources of TV stations, and there are also means to master movies like Shaw Brothers, and it is because of these reasons that Uncle Six can be said to be the uncrowned king in the Hong Kong film and television industry, while the others are much worse.

Now it is rare for the sixth aunt to be generous, Li Mingbao did not choose those bigwigs with guaranteed box office, but chose two people who had no image at all, which really made him feel weird. But since this is Li Mingbao's choice, the people in the artist department don't say much, anyway, the choice is given to Li Mingbao, Li Mingbao made his own choice, no wonder he, even if the sixth aunt personally asked later, he also said, so as not to cause any trouble because of this matter.

Sure enough, when Li Mingbao left, after the people from the artist department told Aunt Liu's about Li Mingbao's choice, Aunt Liu did not embarrass him, but asked him to continue to work hard, and Wireless would not treat him badly, so he let him go.

The people in the artist department walked easily, but the sixth aunt had a headache. Because it was not the sixth aunt's idea to let Li Mingbao enjoy such a good treatment this time, it was also the will of the sixth uncle.

If it weren't for the sixth uncle's nod, even the sixth aunt would not be able to make such an arrangement, after all, such an arrangement involves some issues of principle, with the shrewdness of the sixth aunt, she naturally knows what she can touch, and which things even she can't touch. And such a generous selection of actors, and it is also for a person who is free from the wireless periphery, naturally involves the principle of the sixth uncle.

"So, that kid wasted our minds and chose two actors who weren't famous at all?" The sixth uncle stroked the frames of his glasses and asked thoughtfully.

"Yes, I don't know what he thinks, so I chose those two actors, who are not famous at all. It doesn't make sense to say that kid doesn't know the role of stars, I heard that he also found Zhao Yazi and Zhou Yan to play cameo roles, which proves that he is very good at this set. Even when he was in his first movie, didn't he also find Fei Fei to make a cameo? But he just doesn't choose popular stars to play important roles, which is what I can't figure out, is he afraid that he will lose money on the salary of choosing stars if he doesn't make movies well? Fang Yihua was also inexplicable.

"No, if this kid didn't even have this responsibility, he wouldn't have made movies at all. You must know that when he made a movie for the first time, the total amount in his hands was less than one million Hong Kong dollars, and he dared to make such a big storm, if he was timid, then there are few people in Hong Kong who are bold. I can't guess what this kid does, if I want to know the answer, I still have to wait for his new movie to come out before commenting. Uncle Six finally concluded.

The conversation between the sixth uncle and the sixth aunt, Li Mingbao naturally didn't know, and chose Zeng Zhiwei and Chen Baixiang, because these two people are so suitable, and their acting skills are actually good, compared to those recommended by Shaw Brothers, they are more suitable for their own movies.

After getting the contact information of Zeng Zhiwei and Chen Baixiang, Li Mingbao called the phone, Zeng Zhiwei was running around at this time, and now he is not doing martial arts, but he has turned to a screenwriter, but it does not mean that Zeng Zhiwei completely relies on this to eat, after all, his screenwriter name is not big now, and if he wants to mix well, he will not be hungry if he works two more jobs.

Hearing Li Mingbao say that he wanted him to act, Zeng Zhiwei didn't know where Li Mingbao was sacred, but after Li Mingbao said that "Happy Ghost" was filmed by him, Zeng Zhiwei became enthusiastic. There's no way, this topic is so loud recently that even people outside the circle know it, and it's impossible for Zeng Zhiwei, an insider, not to understand.

Zeng Zhiwei agreed very happily, and Chen Baixiang was similar. To tell the truth, Chen Baixiang has had a very bleak life in the past two years, earlier it was the Wenna band, but the band was not good later, everyone came out to fly solo, and Chen Baixiang changed his career to sell clothes and began to earn tens of millions, but unfortunately in the end it was a mess.

Chen Baixiang is an optimistic person, seeing that he couldn't do it like this, he returned to the circle, but the circle is a circle, he didn't enter any band again, but entered the showbiz and acted with the woman Xiugu who he had chased before.

When he received a call from Li Mingbao this time, his biggest feeling was an accident, it was really a surprise, and he was a person inside the wireless, Chen Baixiang knew Li Mingbao better than Zeng Zhiwei. Zeng Zhiwei is a loach who wanders between the bigwigs, mixing here and there, and he doesn't know much about the internal affairs of TVB.

But Chen Baixiang knows that Li Mingbao's energy in TVB, and the person who can talk directly to Uncle Sixth is not comparable to a small shrimp like him, coupled with the recent popularity of Li Mingbao's film, his net worth has exceeded 10 million, such a person personally called him to film, where can he not be surprised?

After getting the last two main actors, the basic crew is considered to have completed the preparations. But before the play, Li Mingbao still has to do a very important thing, that is, to borrow a villa, and he also needs a very large villa, because most of the scenes in this play are filmed in the villa, to reflect the layering of the movie, the kind of small villa of one or two hundred square meters cannot meet Li Mingbao's needs at all.

The villa in the original film, because it is in the United States, can be said to be vast and sparsely populated, even if it is a middle-class family, there is no difficulty in getting a big villa. But the place where Li Mingbao wants to start filming is in Hong Kong, and this year, Hong Kong's population density is among the highest in the world.

Not to mention middle-class families, even if it is an ordinary small wealthy family, it is a difficult problem to want a large villa. The money in Li Mingbao's hand is now not the slightest problem to buy a big villa, and there will be some leftovers, enough to make a movie.

But Li Mingbao obviously knew that the villa would have to be reduced in price in less than two years, and if he bought it now, it would be equivalent to throwing money in the water, and he wanted to make more money with the money in his hand, so he was naturally not happy to put the money on the villa now. Therefore, the villa where the film was filmed had to find someone who was willing to rent.

Don't look at Li Mingbao's recent frequent appearances on the news, but in front of those real bigwigs in Hong Kong, Li Mingbao is still a small character, even if he has a net worth of tens of millions now, but for those bigwigs who can have big villas in Hong Kong, it is still not enough. In addition, in Li Mingbao's family, there was no such relationship before, so the matter of renting a villa had to be discussed by Li Mingbao himself.

There is such a villa on the sixth uncle's side, but Li Mingbao feels that it is quite unreliable to find the sixth uncle for this matter, if he encounters a little difficulty, he will find the sixth uncle, and it will not be long before he will become a vassal of the sixth uncle.

In the end, Li Mingbao hit the idea on Shen Baoxing, who had something to do with him, as for why he didn't look for Jin Daxia, it was really because Jin Daxia's favor was not good to owe, and if he owed it, he would have to lose money, Shen Baoxing's side, giving enough manuscripts and remuneration, it is definitely not as difficult to talk about as Jin Daxia. As one of the two pillars of Ming Pao, although Shen Baoxing's net worth is not as much as Jin Daxia, there is still such a big villa, and under Li Mingbao's soft grinding and hard bubbles, Shen Baoxing received the money, so he naturally had to let him go.

The most important prop, after the villa was taken down, plus other preparations have been prepared, the crew of "Baby Zhiduoxing" is officially established.

As the second film of Li Mingbao started, the Hong Kong press also maintained a high degree of attention. The craze of "Happy Ghost" has not completely passed, and Li Mingbao's second film is about to start filming, such news is definitely the most popular thing for Hong Kong people.

At the scene of worshipping God and starting the film, it is naturally no longer as cold as the start of filming of Li Mingbao's first film, but has attracted countless reporters to report, and even the three major newspapers in Hong Kong's press circle, Ming Pao, Oriental Daily, and Sing Tao Daily have sent their own reporters.

Seeing that there were so many people, Li Mingbao asked someone to turn the scene of worshipping God into a press conference for the time being.

Seeing that Li Mingbao, a young man who has been very popular recently, but rarely shows up, appeared in front of everyone, the reporters of those newspapers were not stingy with their films at all, and they slapped Li Mingbao with a bang, and it was only after half a loud sound that this craze subsided. Then Li Mingbao began to answer reporters' questions.

"Hello Mr. Li, I'm a reporter from Oriental Daily, your last film just broke the box office record in Hong Kong, do you have anything to say about your new film?" Because of the good cooperative relationship between Oriental Daily, Li Mingbao naturally ordered their people to come out first, and there would be no sharp problems.

"I maintain a very optimistic view of my new film, and I believe that when the film is released, the audience will be very satisfied with my work, because this work is also a comedy, and compared to "Happy Ghost", it should give everyone a different happy experience. Well, the next journalist. ”

"Hello Mr. Lee, I would like to ask, do you think your new film will break the new box office record in Hong Kong? Do you think this movie was made with more sincerity, or was the last step of the film made with more sincerity? ”

Obviously, the reporter who said this is here to find fault, otherwise he would not have said such a thing, Li Mingbao is not a novice, compared to the tricky problems of those reporters in later generations, these reporters still need to be honed.

"This reporter, to your question, I just want to say that I am naturally happy to be able to break the box office record, but I can't break the box office record, and I can't prove my sincerity. In fact, I shoot every movie with absolute sincerity. Think about it, if my film was not sincere, would the whole Hong Kong people support me so much? Will my movie still make box office records? Obviously not, so this reporter's words are very problematic. ”
