With the renewal of Chen Baiqiang's contract, Xinya Records, which is still in the process of being formed, already has two king-level figures in the music industry - Zhang Guorong and Chen Baiqiang, which is undoubtedly very beneficial to the development of the record company in the future.

After making an appointment for the signing time, Chen Baiqiang and the two left satisfied.

As soon as the two of them left, Assistant Wu came over, "I didn't have time to tell you Dong Lin, Dong Lin, Secretary Zhou called the company in the morning and wanted to ask the company for a few days off." ”

"What?" Lin Xiaozhi was slightly flustered, and suddenly remembered that he had heard that something had happened to Zhou Huimin's family yesterday, so he then asked, "Secretary Zhou wants to ask for leave?" What's wrong, something happened to her family? ”

"Yes, Secretary Zhou wants to take a week's vacation from the company. Although she only said that an elder in the family was hospitalized, her tone seemed to be very unoptimistic. ”

Her words made Lin Xiaozhi's face tense for a while, "I know, if Secretary Zhou calls again, you will say that I approve it." When the company is done, I'll take the time to ask about the specific situation."

"Yes"

Assistant Wu answered and exited his office.

has made an appointment with Debao Cinema to release it at the end of the month, and the promotion of "Friends" has already started, although Lin Xiaozhi is not optimistic about how good this west-style 'black humor, movie, can achieve at the box office in Hong Kong. But the young Ye Weixin is the director that Xinya is now pushing, and he is now on the rise, and Lin Xiaozhi is not the kind of person who likes to pour cold water. Anyway, Ye Weixin's movie has already made money for the company, and the rest of the money is earned more and less, so he will be excited.

For this film, because it was specially recommended by the jury at the Venice Film Festival, although it was only a 'consolation prize', but after it was transmitted back to Hong Kong, it also received the attention of many film critics in Hong Kong. Ye Weixin even asked him if he wanted to have a test screening, but Lin Xiaozhi rejected it after thinking about it for a day. "Friends" should be the first black humor film shot in Hong Kong, with the help of the promotion of selling sky-high European and American copyrights, now the audience has a certain curiosity about it, and at this time it should be more greedy marketing, otherwise once deflated, some people may feel that the expectations are not so high because they are not suitable for this kind of movie, which is not good for the box office.

Affected by politics this year, the Hong Kong box office is showing a sluggish trend, especially after the students with box office purchasing power began to resume classes in September, the box office showed a further downward trend, so Lin Xiaozhi is not in a hurry to release it in this off-season.

Zheng Fei was sent to the UK by him to determine the UK release schedule of "Killer Leon" with ODN, and then he will stay in the UK to do market research, and by the way, to study how to promote, not surprisingly, before the release of "Killer Leon", he will stay in the UK and deploy the release of "Killer Leon".

Lin Xiaozhi, who didn't wait for Song Nianhui all morning, stayed in his office and typed the manuscript all morning. At noon, I casually ate a barbecued pork rice at a nearby café de cajourn and rushed back to the company to continue to create new movie scripts, and it was only three o'clock in the afternoon, and a phone call from the security office of the Kowloon Bank below called his office, "Lin Shao, there is a call in the business hall below. De Zhao, the fat man, said that he came to you. Would you like to let it go?"

The Kowloon Bank is the property of the Lin family, and Lin Xiaozhi's identity is already known to the Kowloon Bank. Now that the New Asia Bank has been moved to the Kowloon Bank Building, in order to distinguish him from his father Lin Jiannian, the security department has to call him Lin Shao.

"Gu Dezhao ......"

Gao Zhisen finally let him go, and Lin Xiaozhi was a little surprised. He thought that he had secretly contacted Mecca before, dug into the corner of Huang Baiming's wall, and bought the new Yibao record would cause Huang Baiming and Gao Zhisen's master and apprentice to feel bad, and he would not send Gu Dezhao, who had promised to lend him temporarily for a while. After all, they had made an appointment with Lu more than a month ago, but it has been delayed until now, and it seems that two months have passed, and they haven't sent anyone to him yet.

"Let him go straight up to the tenth floor and come to my office."

For Gu Dezhao, who was once called one of the five most talented fat men in Hong Kong along with Wang Jing and Wu Mengda, Lin Xiaozhi still likes it very much. He is very talented as a screenwriter, the previous script "Water Margin Laughter" is very good, although Gao Zhisen also helped him revise the script, but it is impossible to overturn and rewrite the revision, many of the funny scenes in it are all thought up by Gu Dezhao himself, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a genius screenwriter. What's even more rare is that Lin Xiaozhi remembers that he seems to have served as an assistant director or even an independent operator in many movies, and even left a lot of classic roles in the movies.

can write, direct, and act, who doesn't like such a fat man.

"Yes"

Hung up the phone, Lin Xiaozhi thought about it, and dialed Assistant Wu's phone again, "Hey, Assistant Wu, you send a secretary to wait at the elevator entrance now, there will be a young man named Gu Dezhao coming up soon, you bring him to my office"

After changing to the Kowloon Bank Building, New Asia's office was dozens of times larger than before, so not only Chen Qiang, Zhu Zhishan, Zheng Fei, and Ye Weixin had their own offices, but Lin Xiaozhi also specially asked people to get a secretary's room, which was originally intended to be led by Zhou Huimin. However, she seems to have something at home recently that she can't come, so she will temporarily let Assistant Wu take care of it, and together with a few newly recruited secretaries, she will form Xinya's secretary room.

"Okay, Ye Qing, you go to the elevator and wait for a guest named Gu Dezhao, take him to Lin Dong's office......"

A few minutes after Lin Xiaozhi hung up the phone, there was a knock on the door outside his office, "Come in......"

After he answered, a young fat young man with pineapple hair and a fair face walked into his office, led by a young female clerk.

"Lin Dong, Mr. Gu has brought"

"Thank you for your hard work, go get busy" "Yes"

As soon as the clerk left, the two of them were left in the office. There is no need to confirm, Lin Xiaozhi has seen Gu Dezhao, and when he first walked into his office, this white and fat guy who looked to be in his twenties at most, immediately recognized him, he is Gu Dezhao, and will be respected as one of the most talented screenwriters in Hong Kong in the future.

"Gu Sheng, sit ......"

Lin Xiaozhi turned off the computer, took the initiative to get up and walked over, and his attitude was sincere, "What to drink?" ”

"No...... No need...... "It's Gu Dezhao, who seems to be a little unable to let go." Standing in his office a little restrained, "The master asked me to come over......"

As soon as he fell, he sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly added: "It's Mr. Gao Zhisen"

"I know that I borrowed it from Gao Sheng, you can sit casually, Gu Sheng, I'll help you make a cup of black tea."

He took two empty cups from the cupboard next to him, brewed a cup of black tea each, and brought one of them to him. Gu Dezhao seemed to be a little flattered, and hurriedly thanked him non-stop: "Xie Lu Xie Lin Dong...... You're welcome......"

In a hurry, when a paper bag he brought fell to the ground, Gu Dezhao hurriedly picked it up, his face slightly red.

Seeing Gu Dezhao, Lin Xiaozhi naturally thought of the couplet with Xingye in "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance", and the master who vomited blood pierced the intestines; In "God of Food", the kitchen god Tang Niu, who bit the star master and stole the master at the Shaolin Culinary Academy; In "The King of Destruction", Huang Yifei's restaurant tricked the clerk of Xing Ye from time to time. Unexpectedly, Gu Dezhao was still a shy fat guy when he was young, Lin Xiaozhi smiled dumbly, which did not match the classic image he left on the screen.

"Don't be so nervous, Gu Sheng...... I like your last script "Water Margin Laughter" very much, and I also admire Gu Sheng's talent very much. Last month, when we held the celebration party of "Water Margin", you couldn't come over that day, Gao Sheng said that you were making a movie with the machine, and I couldn't have a good chat with you, I am very sorry. At that time, I told Gao Sheng, I hope to seconded you to New Asia, and then help us write a script, and the remuneration is good......"

He did not hide his appreciation and admiration for Gu Dezhao in his words, which made this young man very useful, although his face was even redder, his chest gradually rose, and even his stiff expression became a little smarter.

"Hehe, thanks to Lin Dong, I can afford ......"

He touched the back of his head, obviously still a little restrained, "About this, the master told me." I was busy some time ago, and I have just finished it recently, so I came a little late, I hope you don't feel weird Lin Dong. ”

Gu Dezhao studied at St. Joseph's English High School in his early years, and later went to Canada to study and graduated from Simon Fraser University in Canada, majoring in communication and minor in economics. His sister Gu Weili is also a person in the circle, so he began to contact movies when he was a teenager. When Gao Zhisen went to Canada to shoot movies in 87, Gu Dezhao worked part-time in the crew for a period of time and followed them to shoot. After completing his studies and returning to Hong Kong, he was promoted by Gao Zhisen to write scripts, became his 'closed disciple', and served as an assistant director, officially entering the industry.

Originally, according to a rule of not becoming famous in the Hong Kong film industry, he had to follow his master for at least two or three years before he could become a teacher, but at the beginning of the year, he didn't expect Gao Zhisen's friend Zheng Zeshi to ask him for a script. Although Gao Zhisen is a well-known screenwriter in Hong Kong, he can't change the script for a while. It just so happened that Gu Dezhao, who was with him at that time to learn how to write a script, had a very good idea of spoofing the famous "Water Margin", so he rushed to write it day and night, and then recommended himself to Gao Zhisen. He didn't have much expectations for himself, but he didn't think that the script would be taken by Gao Zhisen at once. After some overhaul, there was the script of "Water Margin".

Gao Zhisen didn't take any of the money from the sale of the script, and gave it all to Gu Dezhao.

Because of the creation of this script, Gu Dezhao made a lot of money. For a young man who has just entered the film industry, there is nothing more exciting for him than the stimulation of material wealth. Although it is also known that most of the new Asia of the road was given a price of 10,000 yuan for the sake of the face of his mentor Gao Zhisen, Gu Dezhao also had a good impression of the new Asia that invested in the filming of "Water Margin". In the meantime, spurred on by the success of his first script, he has created a new script, which he brings with him today.

immediately took out the paper bag and said to Lin Xiaozhi: "Although I am a little late, but when I came over this time, I also brought a script that I had just created, and I was going to show it to Lin Dong......"

"Oh"

There is also this kind of good thing, Lin Xiaozhi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took the script he handed over and took it out to take a look.

"Idiot's Birthday"

It is the name of Gu Dezhao's newly created script
