Chapter 562: The Script Is Complete
"The second episode is over, why haven't I seen Ah Zhi show up yet? Shouldn't she be the heroine? After the second episode of "Shanghai Tang" was played, Lin Qingxia asked suspiciously.
"It's not that fast, Ah Zhi won't appear until at least three or four episodes later." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "At first, it was just about telling the story of Xu Wenqiang and Ding Li's struggle for hegemony in Shanghai. ”
"So that's the case, in fact, what's there to fight about, there are so many people who come out to mingle with the rivers and lakes, and I haven't seen any of them who have really made a fortune. On the contrary, those who can start a business are those who do business in a down-to-earth manner. Lin Qingxia sighed and said.
Xu Guanwu glanced at Lin Qingxia in surprise, "You seem to have a deep understanding of this?" Why, have you seen similar examples? ”
"Why haven't you seen it, in the past, there were many people in the boys' school next to our school who were mixed with gangs, but which one really broke out? It's not all about being harmed by the so-called righteous anger. Lin Qingxia waved her hand and said, "Those black X Dao who kidnap people in Taipei to make movies, even if this movie sells money, the next movie will lose money." They're just hitting the jackpot, and who is really willing to delve into it? ”
Lin Qingxia grew up in Taiwan, where gang culture has a long history. Coupled with the government's ineffective crackdown, Taiwan's Black X Society has always been very arrogant. Especially in the entertainment industry, it is a little unscrupulous. It is common to kidnap people and make films, even Lin Qingxia, who is the first star in Taiwan, also faced the threat of the Black X Society back then. But fortunately, she has her own natural appearance, so she finally escaped without danger.
But like the famous comedy star, Xu Can't be directly controlled by the Black X Society, filming, and performing. On the show non-stop. No, it's not iron. Naturally, it is difficult to cope with such a heavy workload. So Black X will help him refresh himself. At the same time, in order to better control him, he was injected with poison needles. As a result, a generation of comedians couldn't promise it, and they were beaten to death like this. It's a pity.
In addition to the comedic stars, such as Gao Lingfeng, the prince of frogs, and Brother Liang, the king of the show, have also been shot by the characters of the Black X Club, and they can be regarded as stars who have suffered from it. Celebrities like them are making things bigger, so everyone can know the pain behind the halo of celebrities. In fact, there are still many celebrities who have been victimized, and they choose to grit their teeth and swallow blood. Naturally, there are more people like that.
"In fact, not only the Taiwanese entertainment industry has gang members, but also gang members in the Hong Kong entertainment industry." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "It's just that the three film companies are currently powerful, so they don't have a chance to make trouble." ”
"If possible, don't let them take advantage of it. The people in the gang only care about making money, where do they care about the lives and deaths of others?! Not to mention that the movie was made by them badly and ugly, and it may become a tool for them to launder money. Lin Qingxia waved her hand and said, "The people in the gang launder money by making movies, and then there is money from selling movies, and then they will have more money." When the time comes, the disaster will be even greater. ”
"Huh?! How do you know that they will borrow the movie to launder money? Xu Guanwu asked in surprise. He always thought that Lin Qingxia was a fairy who did not eat fireworks in the world, but he didn't expect her to know a lot of things.
"When I was filming in Taiwan. There are a few dramas that are invested by the characters of the Black X Society. It was the actor I was working with secretly told me. He said that all the remuneration paid to us was ill-gotten gains. Lin Qingxia nodded and said, "They use the money they make illegally to invest in making movies, and then use the box office to recover their investment after they are released." As soon as you go out and enter the room, all the income that was originally illegal becomes legal investment income. ”
Xu Guanwu nodded, "That's true, but in fact, there is also a fake box office." The movie, which was not a blockbuster, claimed to have earned tens of millions of New Taiwan dollars, although it would pay more taxes, but all the money paid for taxes became legal gains, which is also one of the methods used by the gang to launder money. ”
"Their methods of making money are really strange, by the way, in our Xu's movies, there won't be movies that Black X will invest in, right?" Lin Qingxia asked worriedly.
"Naturally, there are no movies that we have invested in, but if it is filmed by an outside company, it is difficult to say what movies will be sent to our theaters." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "In fact, you don't have to regard it as a flood beast, in fact, this kind of thing is inevitable even in Hollywood." Francis. Coppola's "The Godfather" is operated by the mafia behind the scenes. Therefore, they are extremely glorified in the film, and they almost become representatives of American conscience and justice. ”
"Okay, it's not too early, let's rest early. I'm going to be busy again starting tomorrow. Lin Qingxia said with a smile.
"You don't have much to do right now, what are you busy with?" Xu Guanwu asked suspiciously.
"Don't you see how fat I am? I'm going to have to lose at least ten more pounds. Lin Qingxia patted her little belly and said.
"No need, it's just filming, why are you so serious?" Xu Guanwu waved his hand and said, "At that time in the Republic of China, people hadn't accepted the concept that thinness was beautiful, right?" ”
"In short, people don't look good on camera when they're fat, I have to lose weight." Lin Qingxia said with a smile.
"Just do it!" Xu Guanwu sighed and said, "But you lose weight to lose weight, don't mess around." Be sure to follow the advice of doctors and dietitians, otherwise it is likely to cause accidents. ”
"It's just weight loss, what kind of accident can it cause? You're sensationalizing again. Lin Qingxia pouted.
"I can't scare you, you know that losing weight will also kill people, because of malnutrition, there are also people who lose weight into pork ribs, and there are also people who don't eat and change to anorexia...... In addition, dieting and weight loss actually damage the body's vitality, and excessive exercise may lead to fainting or sudden death. Xu Guanwu waved his hand and said, "Don't take weight loss seriously, you are also the boss of the Self-cultivation Hall, why don't you even understand this truth?" ”
"Even if what you say makes sense, I won't fight with you, I'm going to sleep with my daughter in my arms. Good daughter, sleep with your mother. Lin Qingxia teased Xiao Sichen and said.
……
The next day, when Xu Guanwu got up for breakfast, he found a newspaper report about Mak Dangxiong. It says that Golden Harvest and Mak Dangxiong jointly opened the Mai Dangxiong Studio. I plan to co-produce a film that reflects the theme of girls in social problems. This film boldly uses newcomers. It will bring you a different viewing experience, and I hope you will continue to look forward to it.
Xu Guanwu was stunned after reading the report, if he didn't guess wrong, what Mai Dangxiong and others were going to shoot this time should be the "Pretty Girl". With the personality of Mak Dangxiong who has always liked to shoot male thieves and female singers, it must not be strange for Xu Guanwu to shoot a problem girl movie like "Pretty Girl".
"Pretty Girl" has brought out two new stars, one is the sexy actress Wen Bixia. The other is Lin Biqi, who is full of personality. Lin Biqi herself is a problem girl, who was discovered by the director directly on the street. Although she was young at the time, she was already full of Jianghu flavor, which was very in line with the role of the starring role in the movie. In addition, Lin Biqi is very beautiful, a little like the Yamaguchi Momoe in Japan, so before the movie was released, Lin Biqi was already highly praised by the company, and planned to tailor three movies for her.
But it's a pity that Lin Biqi's role in the play is not only full of personality, but also full of personality in reality, and she began to slip in the middle of the filming. After filming the movie, he didn't participate in the publicity, and scolded the producer Mai Dang heroically and scolding the street. But there's still no way to take this girl who does her own thing.
Mak Dang-hung was already a villain in the Hong Kong film industry, and he was always lawless and full of evil when filming. I can't imagine that the wicked have their own wicked grinding, and now they are being cleaned up by a little girl. Good words are both soft and hard, which can be said to have paid a considerable price.
But it is a pity that Lin Biqi, who became an instant hit, did not devote herself to the entertainment industry, but chose to go into seclusion after filming this "Pretty Girl", and gave birth to a baby a few months later, becoming a single mother who is still underage. It's like a remake of a character from a movie.
Wen Bixia is much more obedient than Lin Biqi, and after filming "Pretty Girl", she filmed "Unstoppable Love" with Liu Dehua, and later starred in TVB TV series such as "Fire Rose", which can be regarded as a smash hit sexy actress. And Wen Bixia's most beautiful destination is also enviable, married to He Yingqin's nephew He Zuguang, a wealthy businessman in Hong Kong during the Republic of China, and envied others.
"Ah Wu, what news are you watching? Seeing it so fascinating? Lin Qingxia saw that Xu Guanwu was only concerned about watching the news, but he forgot to eat breakfast, so she couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
Xu Guanwu smiled, "That's the news, it seems that Mai Dangxiong is still quite popular in Golden Harvest." Is he willing to invest in such a cold subject? ”
"It's normal, newcomers are always the most favored." Lin Qingxia waved her hand and said, "If this movie is successful, this Mr. Mai will be successful." If this movie is not successful, Mr. Mai's life may not be easy. ”
"Don't worry, I've met him a few times, and I know that this person is capable." Xu Guanwu nodded and said, "Actually, he was also the talent I wanted to recruit, but it's a pity that Jiahekai's conditions are better than mine." ”
"Don't be sad, Hong Kong has such a population and naturally a lot of talents, so why should you bother with one person." Lin Qingxia waved her hand and said, "If the employees of the company know that the talent that the boss wants wholeheartedly is from another company, it will make them feel lost." ”
"That's right, Mak Dangxiong is indeed a talent, but he is also a talent who can cause trouble." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "With his consistent lawless personality during Li's filming, it is estimated that it will make Jiahe want to die." ”
……
After having breakfast with Lin Qingxia, Xu Guanwu returned to the company, and at this time, Wang Jing had already sent the script adapted from "Love in a Fallen City" to Xu Guanwu.
"Mr. Xu, this is my adaptation of the script of "Love in a Fallen City", can you see if it fits?" Wang Jing looked at Xu Guan Wudao with blinking.
Xu Guanwu nodded and took the script, and after reading it carefully from beginning to end, he couldn't help but smile in admiration. Although Wang Jing was later called a director of and pee, he was actually a literary and artistic young man in the early days. This "Love in a Fallen City" was adapted by him very well, and the relationship between Bai Tassel and Fan Liuyuan was inseparable, seemingly absent, and ambiguous.
And Wang Fatzi is also worthy of being a top student of the History Department of Hong Kong Chinese University, and he portrays the old era in which "Love in a Fallen City" takes place, which undoubtedly has a sense of historical heaviness compared to those kung fu films of the Republic of China. This is still relatively rare in Hong Kong films.
"Mr. Xu, do you think this script adaptation is okay?" Wang Jing looked at Xu Guanwudao expectantly.
This script was written by him without sleep and after several days of hard work, and it is definitely his brainchild.
"Your script is very good, I think I'm very satisfied." Xu Guanwu nodded.
Hearing the boss's praise, Wang Jing couldn't help but laugh happily, thinking that his hard work in the past few days had not been in vain.
"Wang Jing, who do you think should be the director of this play?" Xu Guanwu asked with a smile again. (To be continued......)
