Seeing us come in, the man hurriedly stood up, walked over on crutches, and warmly shook hands with Fang Gang and the two of us, saying that he would be happy. www.biquge.info The man with a round face, oily hair, a white shirt, Western-style bib pants, and a shiny gold watch on his wrist is the typical Hong Kong businessman. Director Li wanted to pour us tea, and Fang Gang and I hurriedly excused himself, after all, he had inconvenient legs and feet, so he did it himself.

"I'm really embarrassed, seven or eight years old, that time I rested in the swimming pool of a friend's house, I actually fell asleep, and my lower body soaked in water for a few hours, and I got rheumatism." Director Li said with a sigh.

After the introduction of the two sides, Director Li smiled with a smile on his face: "Actually, I met Boss Fang as early as four or five years ago, when Ah Hua was still in Hong Kong, I was introduced, and I invited a goddess's Buddha card from Boss Fang, wow, and then I successfully married a rich Japanese businessman, fucking amazing!" ”

"Who is Ah Hua?" Fei Dabao's curiosity came up again.

Director Li said: "She was a Hong Kong actress almost 20 years ago, she was very beautiful, she had filmed two plays with me, she was bold and bold, it was rare!" There was pride and aftertaste in his tone. Fei Dabao and I couldn't help but look at each other, and then Director Li stood up to toast us, and everyone toasted and began to eat.

Fang Gang said to me with a smile: "You may not know Director Li, but I can guarantee that you must have seen the films directed by him." Then he said the titles of several films.

One of them I was very impressed: "I've seen this, but if I'm not mistaken, it seems to be that...... That kind of film, right? Director Li laughed, which was a tacit acquiescence.

This director is enthusiastic, and he doesn't have a director's frame at all, so I have a good impression of him. While eating and chatting, we learned that Director Lai was actually active in the Hong Kong film stage many years ago, specializing in making that kind of small movie.

At that time, it was the golden age of Hong Kong films, and people of my age, at the time of the heaviest curiosity, did not watch less.

"It was a great time, I could eat seafood and drive a luxury car every day!" Director Li sighed, "But then it won't work, after the fucking ninety-seven, it's not as good as one day." ”

Hong Kong's return to the motherland, many industries have undergone great changes, including Hong Kong films, the market is far from the prospect, coupled with the popularity of the Internet, it is a huge impact on any market. There are fewer and fewer people watching videotapes and VCDs, there are more and more network resources, and many movies will be uploaded to the Internet as soon as they come out, there is no profit, and no one is willing to invest, so Director Li's work is getting less and less. By 2000, he could only shoot one film a year, and there was no one at all in the past few years.

Fei Dabao said: "No wonder I haven't seen any small movies come out of Hong Kong for many years, and those female stars have also become good." ”

Fang Gang casually said the names of a few actresses who had made small movies back then and are now very famous, and said, "At the beginning, they were all goddesses in the minds of people like you, right?" I smiled and said of course, I really didn't see it less at that time.

Director Li raised his wrist and raised the gold watch: "The good times are gone, I was only in my thirties at that time, and I was as young as the two of you, but now, the old man doesn't say it, he is still sick, and he has no money, he regrets not buying a house back then, and he has squandered it all, and now the most valuable thing on his body is this piece of gold, I was seriously ill and hospitalized last year, and I almost had to take it away!" But this watch was bought with the money I paid for my first film, and as long as it doesn't die, it can't be sold! ”

"I heard Fang just say that you want to invite a half-day and a half-earth Guman who can be transported strongly," I said, "and now the goods have been brought." Director Li was very happy and hurriedly asked Fang Gang to take it out and take a look. Fang Gang took out the gift box from the black plastic bag, Director Li frowned, and said how to package it like this, like a gift for a woman who supports her.

Fang Gang said: "How can you get past the customs if you don't do this? After opening it, he put Guman on the dining table, Director Li picked it up and looked at it carefully, and finally said that he couldn't understand it, how is this thing a Thai Buddha card, and it looks like someone else's is a brand, which can be hung around the neck, this thing is so big, how to hang it.

Provoked us all to laugh, Fang Gang said hesitantly: "Didn't I tell you before, Guman is not used to wear, but to worship, that is, you have to put it on the table or niche at home, put offerings to worship, and it will have an effect." ”

Director Li patted his shiny head hard: "Oops, I forgot, people's heads are not easy to use when they are old." Boss Fang did tell me that he was impressed. Fang Gang carefully taught him how to worship again, and Guide Li took out his pen and made a note carefully.

According to Fang Gang, this kind of half-heaven and half-earth Nine Spirits Guman, which contains the ashes of nine children's dead and yin spirits, can attract wealth and transfer when holding a money bag, but when worshipping, all offerings must have nine parts of the same, there can be no difference, let alone less.

After talking about the matter, Fei Dabao couldn't wait to ask Director Li if there were any small movies being made recently. Director Li said: "Where is it, the last time I filmed was four years ago, a Taiwanese producer invested millions, the director came to me and said to help him shoot it, it's really fucking boring, all the people I am looking for are Japanese actresses, but they are very beautiful, but they have no acting skills at all, and they are far from the Hong Kong actresses of the year!" ”

Fei Dabao hurriedly asked Director Li if it was very fun and exciting when he was making a movie. Director Li said: "Young people are curious, where does the stimulation come from, for me, at that time, making movies was equivalent to office workers clocking in and starting work every day, and there was no feeling at all." The first shot was still a bit novel, and I didn't feel it when I shot too much. ”

In fact, I was also very curious, after all, it is too far away from the film and television industry, and small movies are more interested, so I asked if there were any interesting secrets. Director Li smiled: "I can't talk about secrets, it's just the inside story of gossip, for example, a third-rate male star in Hong Kong asked for a virtual position to shoot a small movie when he took over a small movie." The so-called virtual real shooting, that is to say, it is not like an ordinary small movie, but real. ”

"And this requirement? Actresses are famous, right? I asked.

Director Li shook his head and said that the woman was a newcomer and was not famous. Fei Dabao said that it is very beautiful and sexy, which makes the actor tempted. Director Li smiled and said that it was not beautiful, most of the cost of that drama was given to the male star, and the female actor had to find an average one.

I said, "I'm neither famous nor beautiful, so why does the actor have to be really good?" ”

Director Li smiled: "I don't know, anyway, that's what the actor asked for back then, and at first the actress didn't agree, but the actor insisted that he would leave if he didn't agree, so that the movie could continue smoothly, and then she had to agree." After the listing, many viewers said that the effect of the shooting was particularly real, nonsense, that is, it is real, can it be real? ”

That's when we realized that there were so many strange stories in those movies made at that time.

When we listened to Director Li talk, Fang Gang rarely interjected, but now he couldn't help asking: "Director Li, you didn't have a few unspoken actresses back then, right?" "Director Li didn't understand what the unspoken rules were, this is just a mainland term.

After learning the meaning, he sneered: "How can you not take advantage of it?" But I wasn't particularly obsessed with soaking women at that time, but some actresses strongly wanted to be on the play, so I discussed with the investor privately, and as long as I could replace her, I would sleep for free. Actually, I'm not very interested, if you have money, you can find women, why do you have to sleep with them? It's not very famous, but sometimes I meet a more beautiful one, and I choose which one to play here, so I sleep. ”

Fei Dabao's face was full of envy, and suddenly he asked again: "Now the actresses of those movies, except for those who are very famous, have all become old women who no one cares about." ”
