Now that Li Mingbao has determined the director, Li Minghui didn't say much, and then asked Li Mingbao who the leading actors needed for this movie were.

"Baby Zhiduoxing", which is the familiar "Home Alone" here in Big 6, this cheerful movie, one of the most important characters is a child. If this kid doesn't choose well, then this movie is basically equivalent to more than half of it.

Hong Kong is not Hollywood, and you can find suitable actors for all types of films. Although Hong Kong is known as the Hollywood of the East, in fact, genre films are quite lacking, even in the most prosperous stage of Hong Kong films ten years later, there are not many types of mainstream movies in Hong Kong, either martial arts films, martial arts films, comedies, or films.

Other kinds of films, like romance films, literary films, and violent films, can't be said to be none, but they are basically niche. And literary films have directly become box office poison, and making literary films is equivalent to losing money. In the history of the Hong Kong Film Festival, except for a few literary and artistic films, all the others hit the streets. It can't be like Hollywood movies, where a hundred flowers bloom.

Of course, the lack of Hong Kong films is not a problem that Li Mingbao needs to discuss now, and the problem he wants to discuss is actually directly related to the lack of these films. The protagonist of "Baby Wisdom and Stars" is a child, and without children, there would be no movie.

And Li Mingbao is just frustrated with this problem now, Hong Kong can't find child stars. It's not that there are no children in Hong Kong movies at all, but there are absolutely no children who can participate in the movie and can be the protagonist.

Not to mention now, even ten years later, when the Hong Kong film industry is at its most prosperous, except for one Shi Xiaolong and Hao Shaowen, the other Li Mingbao really doesn't know who there are? In this film, it is okay to ask Hao Shaowen or Shi Xiaolong to act. But the question is that it is only 80 years now, where can Li Mingbao find these two children? Not to mention these two children, even their parents are estimated to be children now, how can he find someone? So Li Mingbao is quite entangled.

Li Mingbao's entanglement, put on Li Minghui is not much better, child star, but it is a rare thing in Hong Kong, after a long time, Li Minghui said in front of Li Mingbao: "If you want to talk about children who can act, I know one, but I don't know if he is suitable in your eyes." ”

"Second brother, do you really have such a candidate? Tell me, who is it? Li Mingbao didn't want to get an answer from the second brother, and he was thinking about whether to hold an audition and find such a suitable person outside the entertainment industry. But he didn't expect his second brother to give himself a surprise, and Li Mingbao was naturally very concerned.

"The kid I'm talking about is called Fan Shaohuang, he is only seven years old this year, this kid's father is also from the Shaw family, when he was three years old, Fan Shaohuang acted in a role, it can be said that he is experienced, if you are looking for a young actor, he should be very suitable."

"Fan Shaohuang? It turned out to be him. Not bad, second brother, you really chose a good actor to come out. With child stars, the rest of the people are easy to choose next. The father and mother of the child can let Brother and Sister Zi make cameos, two stupid thieves, let Wu Mengda play one, and the other one think about it again, basically this cast, I think it's almost the same. Li Mingbao said with satisfaction.

"It's no problem for brother and Zhao Yazi to make cameos, but what's the matter with Wu Mengda? Don't you know he's a gambler? lost a lot of money, and recently I haven't even been able to get a film contract, and the whole person is so decadent that it's almost rotten. I won't talk about these external reasons, don't you know how Uncle Tian Lin feels about him? As for being a man, you can't forget your roots, without Uncle Tianlin, don't talk about you, even I can't mix as well as I do now, I won't talk about you about Zhao Yazi, but Wu Mengda is a person, you must not find him to film. Li Minghui said angrily.

Hearing his second brother say this, Li Mingbao was silent. He thought of Wu Mengda before, one because he was still familiar with Wu Mengda, and he had been in contact with the crew of "Chu Liuxiang" before, plus Wu Mengda and Zhou Xingchi together, they were the ace funny personnel.

But now that he heard his second brother say this, Li Mingbao knew that he was thinking a little simpler. Indeed, Wu Mengda is a golden supporting role, and Zhou Xingchi and Zhou Xingchi are a match made in heaven. But these things are all in the future, and now Wu Mengda has not reformed himself, and Zhou Xingchi, this guy, has not yet appeared, there is only one Wu Mengda, and it does not have much effect, plus the relationship with Uncle Tian Lin, now looking for Wu Mengda to act, there are indeed many problems.

So Li Mingbao said in a good manner: "Okay, the role of those two thieves, I won't look for Wu Mengda, after two days of busy things at hand, I will go to wireless to see if there is any suitable person to come." ”

Hearing that Li Mingbao did not insist on Wu Mengda's acting, Li Minghui nodded, which can be regarded as approving Li Mingbao's plan.

When he got up early the next morning, Li Mingbao began to be busy, of course, he was not busy with the new crew, but with Sister Zi's affairs. Yesterday, he told Sister Zi that he would solve the trouble of Sister Zi's husband, and if he didn't solve this problem before the crew started, then this matter would drag on for at least several months. Li Mingbao can wait, but Sister Zi may not be able to wait.

Therefore, at this time, Li Mingbao needs to solve this problem in the shortest possible time. But Li Mingbao's trouble is obviously not only about the crew and Sister Zi, but also a bigger trouble, that is, the manuscript of "Kunlun". Originally, Li Mingbao wanted to finish the draft of "Kunlun" before the filming of the movie "Baby Zhiduoxing" started.

But now that Sister Zi's matter is suddenly inserted, Li Mingbao's time is a little insufficient. Mingbao can't afford to offend him now, if Jin Yong's side doesn't give an explanation, Li Mingbao's money will be worried. There is no way, before dealing with Sister Zi's matter, Li Mingbao feels that he still has to solve the matter of "Kunlun" first.

Since Li Mingbao was the party who owed the manuscript, when facing Ming Pao, he naturally lacked confidence, and after going to the editorial office of Ming Pao in person and explaining the reason, Shen Baoxing rarely came forward to talk to Li Mingbao about things.

Because Li Mingbao lost money this time, Shen Baoxing was able to stand on the commanding heights and face Li Mingbao, and there would be no situation where he was pitted by Li Mingbao, so Shen Baoxing's mood was quite good.

"You say you don't have time to write this manuscript? It's a tough one. Look at it now, our Ming Pao is about to start serializing "Kunlun", and if you give me a sentence now, I can't get it right, so we will have a lot of losses in Ming Pao. Even if we have a good relationship, this brother still has to settle accounts, can you tell me what to do? ”

"This ...... It's true that my time is a little tight, and it's not that I won't give you a manuscript, but I just have to delay some time, which shouldn't have much to do with it, right? Besides, the entire manuscript is more than 1.1 million words, and I will give you more than 800,000 words, leaving only 200,000 or 300,000 words, which is not much. When you publish it in the Ming Pao, publish it less, and when my new movie is finished, I will hand it over to you, and there will be no problem of breaking the update, as for raising this problem to the height of loss? Li Mingbao said indignantly.

Although Li Mingbao owes the manuscript, he does not owe it indiscriminately. If the total number of manuscripts is more than one million, he handed in a fraction of it, and the bulk was not handed in. After he handed over the big head, he still didn't give some tails, and he didn't have much impact on Ming Pao at all. Until now, the book has not yet been serialized, and with a draft of 800,000 words, it will last for a few months, and Li Mingbao will not believe that Mingbao will not be able to hold on.

"Publish less, you are light, but what about the credibility of our Ming Pao? It's not a big impact, if you're like you, we won't have to delay the draft until next year? Shen Baoxing had an annoyed look on his face, but he was very proud in his heart, he finally gained the upper hand in front of Li Mingbao, and if he didn't say a few words, he would lose money.

Seeing Shen Baoxing's soft and hard appearance, Li Mingbao surrendered: "Okay, this time it's not my fault, I'm guilty, just make amends." After my movie is finished, I will give you the manuscript of "Kunlun" and write a new article, so that you will not lose money. Don't talk about anything else, this condition is very good, if you want to get an inch more, I'll turn my face! ”

Seeing Li Mingbao like this, Shen Baoxing knew that he couldn't squeeze any oil and water, so he happily let Li Mingbao go, and by the way, handed over Li Mingbao's new royalties to Li Mingbao. Up to now, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" has been published by their Ming Pao Publishing House to the fourth volume, and the effect is quite good, plus listening to Li Mingbao's opinion, the book was translated into Japanese, and it also sold very well in Japan. Ming Pao made money, naturally he would not forget Li Mingbao, the person who dug the well, and it happened that the latest royalties arrived in Ming Pao, and Shen Baoxing gave Li Mingbao his share of Li Mingbao.

With a check of more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars, Li Mingbao left the Ming Pao office building. Then after finding a bank to deposit the money, I went to negotiate with Zhao Yazi's current husband. Her husband is now in a very bad temper, and he almost wanted to beat Li Mingbao when they first met, but Li Mingbao has always liked to convince people with virtue, and after lifting the glasses man into the air with one hand, he gently put it down, and then the guy was honest.

The horizontal is afraid of the flute, this is the eternal truth. In addition, this man with glasses, that is, Zhao Yazi's husband, is a doctor, a Sven person, and he is not a horizontal person, compared to Li Mingbao, a violent person, he is really not a threat.

Don't look at Li Mingbao's self-cultivation these days, but the problems of more than ten years are not something that can be changed, and he likes fighting or something the most. This guy wants to make a move, but he just crashes under Li Mingbao's gun, and it is really a tragedy that he can't find a good opponent if he is looking for death.
