"You've got a book so soon? It's not that long, is it? This new book,How do you feel? Sure enough, Li Minghui heard Li Mingbao divert the topic and talk about things at work, and he also used his energy on this.

It's not that Li Minghui's nerves are big, but the script that Li Mingbao made is really attractive. The reports of those newspapers, because they are the judgments of outsiders, have little impact on Li Mingbao. But in fact, those who really care more about Li Mingbao are those insiders.

From his debut to the present, Li Mingbao has made a total of two scripts, one script is the hot "Shanghai Tang" on TV, which has won the unprecedented honor of Hong Kong's empty alleys, and the other script has directly caused the box office record in the Hong Kong film industry.

Both books are on fire, if "Shanghai Tang" is a big hit, the most people in the circle will say that Li Mingbao is lucky, let Wang Tianlin make this movie, so that a good book will not make a bad movie. But after Li Mingbao himself supervised the production of "Happy Ghost", which was also popular, everyone knew that Li Mingbao did have strength, a good book, and a good film.

Who is not greedy for such talents? Even Shaw Brothers' old rival Golden Harvest and Boss Zou have recently inquired about Li Mingbao's news, not to mention those film companies that are not too famous, and they hope to completely catch Li Mingbao in their hands, because Li Mingbao is equivalent to a mobile money printing machine.

And now Li Mingbao has come up with another script, which is certainly worthy of Li Minghui's attention.

"This book, it's not me talking big, the effect of the shooting is definitely better than "Happy Ghost". It shouldn't be difficult to have another box office record. Li Mingbao said confidently.

"You really think that the box office record is a cabbage, you can break it as much as you want? I think your self-confidence has risen so much that some of you have no one in mind. Li Minghui hit.

"Whether it's good or not, I won't say much." Knowing that his brother didn't believe it, Li Mingbao took out his new script "Baby Zhiduoxing" and put it in the hands of his second brother.

When Li Minghui finished reading the script, his brows furrowed. You must know that Li Minghui is a cheerful person, although he is honest, he is definitely an optimist, but every time he meets his fifth brother, his brows are wrinkled at least 300 percent higher.

"The script is very good, do you want me to help, or is it like doing "Happy Ghost", you are the producer, and I am the director?"

"Yes, what, second brother, are you not happy? Still don't have time? Li Mingbao said in confusion.

For things like being a producer and a second brother being a director, after a cooperation, Li Mingbao feels very comfortable with such a model. The second brother may not have much talent, and he can't reach the height of famous directors in Hong Kong, such as Xu Ke and Wong Kar-wai, otherwise Li Mingbao will not be able to find the name of the future second brother in the Hong Kong film industry in his memory.

But the second brother has an advantage that most other directors in Hong Kong can't do, that is, the ability to endure. The advantage of the second brother is like a person who will appear in Hong Kong in a few years, Cheng Xiaodong. The most famous thing about Cheng Xiaodong in the Hong Kong film industry is not his directing ability, but his ability to save the scene, any film or TV series, after the original director leaves, if he wants to continue filming, everyone will pull Cheng Xiaodong out, which can be described as a model of firefighters.

If Cheng Xiaodong is just fighting fires, he may not be so famous, but if his level of firefighting is high, he can save heavy losses, and keep the movie style consistent with before, then Cheng Xiaodong's ability is worthy of anyone's praise. Xu Ke can be said to be a very difficult person to serve in the film industry, but Cheng Xiaodong can fight with Xu Ke, which is quite a rare thing. You must know that because of the style problem, Xu Ke and his good friend Wu Yusen both turned their faces, and finally made a mess and didn't get along. It is conceivable how important Chen Xiaodong's ability to save the scene is for the movie. He can completely ignore his own ideas and follow other people's requirements, such a director is very difficult to find.

And Li Mingbao's second brother also has such potential. When filming Happy Ghosts, Li Minghui did a very good job of any effect Li Mingbao wanted to achieve. And now in the new movie, Li Mingbao will naturally cooperate with his second brother, so as to ensure that the movie will not be out of shape. But now looking at the second brother's expression, he seems to be a little unhappy, and Li Mingbao is curious, why is this.

Regarding his fifth brother's question, Li Minghui naturally wanted to answer: "It's not that I don't want to, the main thing is that I think that this movie wants to achieve a very ideal effect, let me do it, I can't do it." Although your script is quite detailed, as long as you shoot according to this script, a good work will appear, but my own style is not suitable for such a film.

This is not my shirk to be an elder brother, if I make a film like "Happy Ghost", I can barely do it with my second brother, but the most important thing about filming this "Baby Wisdom and Stars" is to make the audience laugh. You wrote all the jokes in this movie, but to bring out this effect, I think I am a little less capable. For this movie, if you want to find a director, you should find someone who is good at being funny and can optimize the effect. But your second brother and I, in terms of personality and style, can't be so crazy. So you ask me to shoot, although I can shoot the same thing, but it's a bit of a waste of script. ”

Hearing the second brother's words, Li Mingbao thought about it for a while, and also felt that his second brother said it well, and the second brother's style of making movies inherited some things from his own personality. Some are even-handed. Anything can be photographed, but nothing can reach a classic height.

What do you mean by classics? In the film industry, a classic represents the ultimate in a certain aspect, or close to this extreme. Only movies that achieve such an effect can be regarded as classics, just like the previous "Happy Ghost", although the box office of "Happy Ghost" broke the historical record, it looks very good to outsiders, but let insiders evaluate it, that evaluation will definitely not be too high.

Because "Happy Ghost" does not have any of the characteristics of the classic. It can be said to be a successful commercial film, but in terms of connotation, there is not much. The classics represent the ultimate in a certain aspect, just like Wu Zhenyu, the evil nature of the characters he performs has reached some extreme characteristics. Why was Huang Qiusheng able to win the actor with a third-level film? That's because he is very neurotic in that film, which can become a classic.

As a director, the second brother can be good at anything, but if he wants to highlight the characteristics of a certain aspect, with his character and style, he can't do it. By this time, Li Mingbao also understood why he had not seen his second brother's name in his future memory.

Because the second brother has the potential to save the scene, but he does not have the style of Cheng Xiaodong. Cheng Xiaodong rescued the scene, that is, not only to shoot the original style, but also to mix some of his own ideas, that is, to bring private goods, even in Xu Ke's movie, Cheng Xiaodong can also bring his own things, but if the second brother is asked to do it, then Xu Ke's movie guarantees that there is only one element, and there will be nothing to do with the second brother from beginning to end.

So Cheng Xiaodong succeeded, but the second brother did not have much success in the future. Of course, the second brother is still not very old now, and there are still many improvements, Li Mingbao believes that the more movies are made in the future, the second brother will form his own unique style sooner or later. As long as there is a style, the future development of the second brother will have a bright future. People who are stable and stable, if they want to achieve results, will definitely be more favored by others than those who are excellent unilaterally. Because finding such a great person, it is equivalent to hiring an all-rounder, and you can use it however you want.

Of course, now is not a matter of discussing the future achievements of the second brother. Since the second brother now says that he is not suitable for filming this film, Li Mingbao is not too reluctant. Isn't it just a change of director? There are not many things in Hong Kong these days, but there are a lot of directors and talents, and if you want someone with strong ability to be funny, Li Mingbao immediately remembered a person, and the relationship between this person and Li Mingbao and their brother should be quite close.

"Since you don't want to make this movie, second brother, forget it, but I'm going to ask the second brother to invite someone over, and the second brother can't refuse, right?" Li Mingbao said with a smile.

"Who? You said, as long as I can do it, I will definitely be able to find someone. "Li Minghui, who just rejected Li Mingbao and was a little embarrassed, is in good spirits. Is it not easy to find someone now?

"The person I'm looking for is not a director yet, but I think he also has a lot of ideas about the position of director, so I want you to get him for me. It just so happens that you should know him, so I'm bothering you, second brother. This person, called Wang Jing, the son of Uncle Tian Lin, second brother, you won't say you don't know each other, right? ”

"Wang Jing? The fat man? How did you remember to come to him? He is now just a screenwriter of wireless, although he is the son of Uncle Tian Lin, he is still very young, are you sure he can handle this thing? Not kidding? Hearing that the person Li Mingbao was looking for was actually Wang Jing, Li Minghui said in surprise.

Because of the popularity of "Happy Ghost", Li Mingbao now wants to find a suitable director, which is quite easy, although it is unlikely to poach the four major directors of Shaw Brothers to work for Li Mingbao, but ordinary directors, Shaw Brothers is absolutely welcome. Who doesn't know now that Li Mingbao not only writes the script well, but also makes the movie well, and can get in touch with Li Mingbao and become the director of Li Mingbao's films, it is definitely a beautiful difference.

Unexpectedly, Li Mingbao actually asked a screenwriter to be the director of his new film, which made Li Minghui confused. And Li Mingbao can't explain much, did he say to his second brother that in the future, Wang Jing, a kid, will become a famous commercial film director in Hong Kong, and his style is also suitable for such a funny movie, looking for him to shoot "Baby Zhiduoxing", is definitely the most suitable person.
