After the script was completed, Hong Jingbao took the script and found Xu Guanwu, "Mr. Xu, the script has been completed, can you see if it can be done?" ”

Xu Guanwu nodded, took the script, and saw that this script was different from the previous script. The previous script was only a few dozen pages at most, but this script is indeed hundreds of pages, as thick as a book, and it is heavy in your hand.

Xu Guanwu opened it suspiciously, and it turned out that in addition to the lines, the script also contained the information settings of several leading actors and villains, including age, personality, origin, likes and dislikes, etc., which was completely a character biography.

These materials have more than 100,000 words, and after people read them, although filming has not officially started, they have already constructed the images of these leading actors in their minds.

Xu Guanwu couldn't help but nodded, like this kind of detailed script, there was no one in Xu's before. It is estimated that even in the whole of Hong Kong, there are very few screenwriters who are willing to work hard. In addition to the poor treatment of Hong Kong screenwriters, there is no reason to do these useless jobs in vain. There are also directors who like the "brainstorming" creative mode, in short, everyone gets together to make jokes, so as to be more exciting, exciting and fun, but they are not demanding about the rationality of the story, and naturally the so-called character information card is useless.

Xu Guanwu first read the character information card in the appendix, and then began to flip through the script, nodding slightly while reading. Now the script in his hand has the meaning of a Hollywood script, which is not only much more formal, but also echoes before and after, with foreshadowing, foreshadowing, and climax, and the whole script echoes before and after, with a complete structure, even if it is placed in Hollywood. It is also a very good script.

"Who said that the level of Hong Kong screenwriters is poor?" After Xu Guanwu read it. I pondered in my heart. "It's just that those directors had low requirements before, and now look at the script in hand, isn't it very well written?"

"Mr. Xu, what do you think of this script?" Hong Jingbao saw that Xu Guanwu had finished reading the script, and if he didn't enter, he stepped forward and asked with a smile.

"I think it's pretty good." Xu Guanwu nodded and said, "Sanmao, this time you are required according to Hollywood standards, right?" ”

"yes, I didn't spend a month in the United States. I don't know how much better the level of people over there is than our Hong Kong. If we want to go to the United States in the future, we must improve our strength from now on. Hong Jingbao said frankly.

"That's right, after all, American films developed earlier than us, and they have strong funds and fierce competition, and if they run a little slower, they will be swallowed up by others, so those who can survive until now are all amazing filmmakers." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "We can indeed learn a lot of good things from them, but we don't have to be arrogant, in fact, we Hong Kong filmmakers also have advantages." It is Zhilang Dao how to use a relatively low cost to make a better movie work. ”

Hong Jingbao couldn't help but smile when he heard him say this. It is true that the investment in Hong Kong films has always been very small, and a few years ago, a few years ago, a movie could be made with more than 100,000 Hong Kong dollars. Compared with the investment in American films, even if it is a low-budget film, the investment is about one million dollars.

Although the cost of Hong Kong films has risen to about 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, the growth of American film investment is even faster, and now the investment in small-budget films is already about 5 million US dollars, and the large-cost investment in films is 30 million or 40 million US dollars, which is something that Hong Kong films cannot catch up with.

However, although the cost of Hong Kong movies is low, its box office is very good, especially in Taiwan, Nanyang and Hong Kong, the box office of Hong Kong movies is higher than that of American blockbusters, which is also a feature of Hong Kong films.

"Since Mr. Xu thinks this script is good, he might as well give it a name." Hong Jingbao said to Xu Guanwu with a smile.

"Okay," Xu Guanwu nodded, "Since it is a food movie, then the name of the movie must be related to food, I think it might as well be called "Full of Gold and Jade". It's festive and rich, and it sounds atmospheric. ”

Hong Jingbao clapped his hands, "Mr. Xu is so literate, then it's called "Full of Gold and Jade". ”

Xu Guanwu couldn't help laughing, this movie was originally inspired by his previous life co-starred by Zhang Guorong, Yuan Yongyi, Zhong Zhentao and others in "Manchu and Han Quanxi", as well as Yuan Biao, Liming, Wu Mengda and others co-starred in "Huotou Lucky Star".

"Fire Head Lucky Star" combines kung fu and cooking skills for the first time, and "Manchu Han Full Banquet" is a food-themed film with the routine of making kung fu films. But it's a pity that when "Huotou Lucky Star" and "Manchu and Han Quanxi" were released, Hong Kong films had entered a period of decline, making movies with such good themes unsustainable.

However, inspired by these two food movies, TVB later produced a number of TV series about cooking and food, all of which achieved very good ratings, and became a more popular type of drama among TVB's many dramas.

Xu Guanwu watched "Huotou Lucky Star" and "Manchu and Han Quanxi" back then, and was drooling from the food in them, so he was quite impressed by these two movies. Therefore, when I think of Hong Jingbao's brothers as chefs, I immediately think of these two movies, so there is the story of "Full of Gold and Jade".

"Now that the script has been written, let's find a good day to start filming." Xu Guanwu nodded and said, "Sanmao, you have to remember that the food in this movie must be good-looking, healthy, and conform to the tastes of American audiences." You also know that the people over there have a lot of taboos about what to eat, unlike us Hong Kong people who swim in the water in the sky, as long as they can eat it, they can eat it in their stomachs. ”

"Yes, Mr. Xu, I'll pay attention." Hong Jingbao hurriedly agreed, "If Mr. Xu is fine, then I will step back first." ”

Xu Guanwu nodded and waved his hand to let Hong Jingbao retreat.

……

After Hong Jingbao left, he immediately began to gather people and put the movie "Full of Gold and Jade" on the filming schedule. "Full of Gold" is probably the first film in Hong Kong to tell about food, and it may also be the first film to combine kung fu and food, so it is naturally full of innovation.

However, it is precisely because no one has filmed similar themes before that Hong Jingbao and others are a little inexperienced. In the end, how to make the food production process wonderful and beautiful. How to choose those delicacies? The ability to meet the tastes of Hong Kong audiences and American audiences is a test for Hong Jingbao and others.

For example, bird's nest and shark fin, which Hong Kong people often eat, are more controversial in European and American countries. Because the acquisition of both types of food is not very humane, whether it is the best blood bird's nest in the bird's nest or the shark fin made by cutting off the shark fin, it is a rather cruel food. Not to mention the three snake soup that Hong Kong people like to eat. Pangolins, civets and other game are not allowed to appear in front of the camera.

Hui Guanwu specially invested 5 million Hong Kong dollars in this film, so that they can slowly explore and practice, accumulate some experience in making food films, and facilitate the expansion of it into a new theme of Hong Kong films in the future.

Just when Hong Jingbao and others were busy filming "Full of Gold and Jade", the Xiushen Hall jointly opened by Zhao Yazhi and Lin Qingxia was also officially opened for business.

The address is located in the most prosperous downtown area of Tsim Sha Tsui, with the beautiful Victoria Harbour outside the window. The scenery is pleasant, but the price of this property alone is more than five million. Compared with a few years ago, the price has increased at least tenfold, which can also be seen that Hong Kong has every inch of land, especially in Tsim Sha Tsui, Central, Mong Kok and other downtown areas, housing prices are rolling upward.

The main project of Xiu Shen Tang is weight loss, slimming, whitening and skin care, in short, all the pursuits of beauty-loving women can be realized here.

Zhao Yazhi and Lin Qingxia leaned against Xu Guanwu's big tree to enjoy the shade, and after holding back at home for ten months and giving birth to a baby, they couldn't stay idle anymore and immediately began to prepare for the company, inviting first-class doctors, nutritionists, and fitness coaches from Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, France and other places...... The introduction of the most advanced and popular health care methods in the world, such as spa, flavor skin care, yoga fitness, acupuncture weight loss, medicine weight loss, food weight loss, etc., in order to make each member become young and beautiful, and rejuvenate the brilliance of youth.

After two months of preparation for the opening of Xiu Shen Tang, the first customers were naturally Zhao Yazhi and Lin Qingxia, who led by example to give priority to these services, and then used their own live signs to attract customers.

Under Xu Guanwu's suggestion, Xiu Shen Tang only does female member business, all members are either rich or expensive, not just rich can come in, the first point is to be innocent, have a certain social status in Hong Kong. Because Xu Guanwu opened the Xiu Shen Tang not just to make money, he also wanted to build it into an organization like the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club. Through Xiu Shen Tang, he built his own network of people in Hong Kong's high society, directly controlled these high-ranking dignitaries, celebrities and wealthy businessmen, and with this invisible network of people, he could obtain endless profits from it.

After the opening of the Xiu Shen Tang, with the help of Xu's current fame, a group of members have been recruited soon, some of which are given away for free, and they can be tried for free for three months, half a year or a year in the Xiu Shen Tang, and if there is an effect, they can also be renewed.

Of course, anyone who can get a free membership trial is all the top people in Hong Kong. As for those who are not qualified for free, they naturally still have to spend money to enter, and the amount is still quite large. The annual membership fee is more than 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, of course, after obtaining the membership, all the services of the slim hall can be enjoyed for free, such as nutrition and weight loss packages, such as yoga fitness classes, such as aromatherapy spa SPA, such as professional fitness instructor guidance, etc.

Hong Kong people have always liked to respect Luo Yi first and then respect others, so even ordinary workers on the streets of Hong Kong will have a few expensive clothes, and they will be energetic when they wear them, so that they will not be looked down upon by others. And women are very fond of beauty, which can be seen from the famous brand stores in Central, Mong Kok, Tsim Sha Tsui and other places, which are all engaged in the business of female customers, and the prices of the goods in them are quite expensive.

Ordinary people in Hong Kong love to dress up so much, let alone these celebrities and Mrs. Kwong. They usually don't give birth, they specialize in attending various activities, and naturally like to dress themselves up beautifully and beautifully. However, when they are young, they have beautiful clothes, expensive jewelry, and youth, and they don't need to bother too much to dress up, so they can naturally attract thousands of eyes and greatly satisfy their vanity.

But if a person is old, no matter how beautiful the clothes and expensive jewelry are, they will no longer be able to attract people's attention. Therefore, how to keep themselves young and beautiful has always been the goal of women, especially those rich and powerful, who are crazy about it. That's why the business volume of perfumes, cosmetics, and brand-name clothing is so high. It's all the fault of those who love beauty.

Therefore, as soon as the Xiu Shen Hall opened, it immediately attracted the attention of many beautiful women, in addition to Xu's own fame, there were also Zhao Yazhi and Lin Qingxia, the two proprietresses appeared in person, making people clearly see the magic of the Xiu Shen Tang.

After Zhao Yazhi and Lin Qingxia gave birth to a baby, they began to lose weight under the guidance of doctors, nutritionists, fitness coaches and other professionals. Such a miraculous change also surprised Xu Guanwu.

And the magical experience of the two of them naturally attracted those beautiful celebrities Mrs. Kuo to devote themselves to the beauty of the self-cultivation hall. (To be continued......)
