166 [Lame Director and Fur Merchant]

Kang Jianfei took the elevator downstairs, and as soon as the elevator door opened, a man with glasses shouted in surprise outside the elevator: "Mr. Kang." ”

Kang Jianfei thought he had met a fan, and walked out of the elevator and nodded and smiled at him.

Kang Jianfei's car was parked in the small parking lot in front of the office building, and he was about to go out to drive, but the man caught up with him in three or two steps, and while chasing, he took out a notebook from his satchel and said, "Hello Mr. Kang, I have a script here, I want you to take a look." ”

Kang Jianfei looked back, but saw that this person was actually a lame man, and he was limping when he walked. He took the script curiously, opened it, and the movie in the script was called "City Patrol Horse".

"You're Eu Yan Tai?" Kang Jianfei looked at the author's signature of the script and asked in surprise.

Eu Yan Tai is also new. One of the authors of Lang ChΓ‘o, he is also well-known in the circle, and Kang Jianfei is not uncommon even if he knows his name. So Yu Rentai didn't think much about Kang Jianfei's surprised tone, he just rubbed his hands and smiled: "A little thin, I didn't expect Mr. Kang to know what you said, I'm really ashamed, ashamed!" ”

Of course, Kang Jianfei knows Yu Yantai's "thin name", this person is one of the important directors of the future New Arts City, Li Lianjie's "Huo Yuanjia" is his film, and the Hollywood horror film "Freddy vs. Jason" is also Yu Yantai's work.

It's just that Yu Rentai at this time is still a thin man, not as "burly" as he was 30 years later, and his cheeks are sunk into it without much meat, so Kang Jianfei didn't recognize him at all.

Kang Jianfei glanced at the script of "City Patrol Horse", and he only had a part of the script in his hand, which is also a common practice for most screenwriters to submit scripts. Kang Jianfei vaguely remembered that this "City Patrol Horse" starred Zhou Yunfa in parallel time and space, but I can't remember which other actors there are, after all, this film is not famous.

"How did you remember to hand me the script?" Kang Jianfei asked.

When Yu Yantai heard this, his face was a little embarrassed, because he was now in a state of despair.

The reason why Eu Yan Tai's legs and feet are inconvenient is because he suffered from polio when he was a child. He graduated from USC with a degree in film, worked as a production assistant at ABC TV in the United States, worked as a production manager for an advertising agency after returning to Hong Kong, and also opened a film company with friends.

A few years ago, the famous "Jumping Ashes" was the producer and executive director of Yu Yantai. Last year, he directed "Inside and Outside the Wall" with a box office of more than 3 million, which was applauded and acclaimed, and became a famous new in Hong Kong. Directed by Lang ChΓ‘o.

But this year, Yu Yantai directed "Savior" for Zhucheng Film Company, and when it was released, he met "Mr. Zombie", and the Hong Kong box office was only a pitiful more than 200,000.

In addition, another film in Zhucheng also hit the streets, so Zhucheng Film Company, which should have stood in Hong Kong for decades, stopped production, and the company's production director Teddy Robin also switched to New Arts City.

Yu Rentai made a movie with a box office of only more than 200,000 yuan, although it was a mistake of the war, but no investor had the confidence to ask him to make a movie.

A few days ago, Kang Jianfei released a word, saying that Oriental DreamWorks was ready to expand its scale to recruit people, so Yu Rentai rushed to work overnight, spent a few days writing the script of "City Patrol Horse", and was ready to go to DreamWorks to try his luck.

Yu Rentai roughly talked about his own affairs and said: "Mr. Kang, I don't have a lot of investment in this movie, 1.2 million is enough." And ......"

"Wait a minute, you mean Zhucheng is out of production?" Kang Jianfei didn't want to hear him say this, but he was more concerned about Zhucheng Film Company. If Zhucheng is discontinued, won't "The Story of Hu Yue", which made Zhong Chuhong popular in parallel space, and "Pretty Girl", which made Wen Bixia popular, appear? Both of these movies are produced by Zhucheng.

Zhucheng Film Company also has a very good talent named Zhang Guozhong, who has served as the agent of Zhou Yanfa, Alan Tam, Li Keqin, Andy Lau and others, like Andy Lau, Li Keqin, and Yu Wenle were praised by Zhang Guozhong to become popular.

Yu Rentai nodded and said, "Yes, Zhucheng Company has stopped production." The owner, Mrs. Liang, was originally in the clothing and wallpaper business, but because she was good friends with Teddy Robin, she invested in a film company. Now that Teddy Robin has gone to Xinyi City, Mrs. Liang doesn't have much to think about making movies. ”

Kang Jianfei asked, "What about Zhang Guozhong?" ”

"Mr. Kang also knows Zhang Guozhong?" Yu Rentai was surprised, "Zhang Guozhong was originally a staff member of the export department of a foreign bank under Mrs. Liang, but now that he doesn't make movies, he naturally returns to the foreign bank to do trade exports." ”

Kang Jianfei sweated wildly, and he filmed "Mr. Zombie" in advance, which actually led to such a big change. forced Teddy Robin to join the new art city in advance, causing the suspension of Zhucheng Pictures, and the future gold medal agent to go back to export trade......

If the gold medal agent Zhang Guozhong is at ease as a staff member of a foreign bank, can Li Keqin still become popular? Can Andy still become one of the Four Heavenly Kings?

Kang Jianfei said: "I accepted your script, but DreamWorks has been filming a lot recently, and I may only have the opportunity to make your movie next year." It's that Zhang Guozhong, I'm a little interested in him, when do you ask him out for a meal together. ”

Yu Rentai didn't know if Kang Jianfei was perfunctory to him, but it was good that he didn't directly refuse, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to Zhang Guozhong another day, and I'll definitely ask him out." ”

Kang Jianfei returned the script to Yu Rentai and said, "In this way, I am preparing to expand the company's production department, and the screenwriting team of your advanced production department is responsible for the creation and review of the script." In the past few days, there have also been a few screenwriters who have submitted scripts to the company, and I haven't had time to read them yet, so you can pick them up first. ”

"Let me be in charge of writing and reviewing DreamWorks scripts?" Yu Rentai couldn't keep up with Kang Jianfei's thinking, he was still talking about Zhang Guozhong just now, and in a blink of an eye, he was asked to enter the dream factory to take charge of important work, what is this.

"Not confident in yourself? Anyway, you also graduated from USC with a film major, worked as a production assistant in the ABC News Department in the United States, and also worked as a production manager and film company owner when you returned to Hong Kong, so reviewing the script should be a small matter. Kang Jianfei said with a smile, talents are rare, so naturally one will be used if you come to one.

Yu Yantai is now the most depressed, the film company he and his friends opened closed down three years ago, and he lost his family and almost didn't sleep on the street. Now no one is even willing to be a director, Kang Jianfei gave him such a position, Yu Rentai was naturally overjoyed.

When Kang Jianfei walked out of the door of the office building, Yu Rentai was still holding the script in his hand, dragging his lame leg with polio, limping behind and waving: "Mr. Kang walks slowly...... See you again Mr. Kang! ”

Kang Jianfei started the car, stuck his head out of the window and said: "Go up to the personnel department to register, and then go to the production department to report, and say that I arranged it." ”

Without waiting for Yu Rentai to reply, Kang Jianfei had already driven away in the car.

While driving, Kang Jianfei thought about it, since Zhucheng had temporarily stopped production, the ghost knew when it would be able to recover. So should Oriental DreamWorks make a few low-budget literary films like "The Story of Hu Yue" and "Pretty Girl"? The money spent is not much, but the reputation brought is not small, and it can also go to the Golden Horse Awards and the Asia-Pacific Film Festival to win awards, which is very good for expanding the influence of Oriental DreamWorks.

What's more, Zhucheng has been discontinued, and if he doesn't make it, it is estimated that no one will make these movies. Of course, if the original screenwriter and director meet and get investment, it may be produced by other film companies.

Kang Jianfei drove to the set of Lishi, because Kang Jianfei didn't give Guan Zhilin a corner for a long time, Guan Zhilin still went to work at the TV station through the face of her father Guan Shan. But it's not an actor contract, it's about going to be an advertisement and a graphic model to earn some pocket money.

After arriving at the set, many people recognized Kang Jianfei as soon as they got out of the car.

There is no way, the Hong Kong film and television circle is so big, and Kang Jianfei's name is enough to make people in the circle thunderous.

After asking several people, Kang Jianfei asked where Guan Zhilin was filming the advertisement, and quietly blended into the studio.

In the studio, several gaffers are busy under the reprimand of the director, and the lights are focused on a small stage that is quite fashionable and bright.

Guan Zhilin was chatting with another male model wearing a mink coat, Kang Jianfei was about to go over, but he heard the director say in a flattering tone to Guan Zhilin: "Mr. Wen, Miss Guan, the lights are adjusted, and I am about to prepare to open the microphone." ”

Chatting with Guan Zhilin, the male model was tall and handsome, about 30 years old, with deep-set eyes and seemed to be a little mixed-race. After the director finished speaking, the model tidied up the fur coat on her body, and smiled at Guan Zhilin: "Miss Guan, please!" ”

After Guan Zhilin walked on the stage, she began to walk enchantingly under the director's reminder. The luxurious mink coat, with Guan Zhilin's perfect figure and face, and then stepping on high heels, exuded an indescribable charm and extravagance.

After filming a while, the male model also joined in, walking back and forth on stage with Guan Zhilin, posing from time to time to highlight the fur coat on his body, and the last two smiled back to back at the camera, and the director finally shouted: "Click! It's great, it's great, this time it's much better than the last time. Mr. Wen and Miss Guan have worked hard! ”

Judging from the director's low profile, the male model is not a small person.

The director was polite to Guan Zhilin, because Guan Zhilin's father, Guan Shan, knew several powerful figures in Li's TV station. And what about the male model? is not only a model, but also a TV actor and fur dealer. This advertisement is a fur advertisement shot at his own expense.

In the parallel space, this fur merchant and model named Peter Wen is Guan Zhilin's first boyfriend after entering the TV station.

After filming the advertisement, Guan Zhilin was about to take off the mink coat on her body, and Peter Wen had already pressed her shoulders with both hands and said, "Miss Guan, I think you look good in this dress." Red pink for the beauty, you match it so well, don't take it off. ”

"Is it really pretty? I love it myself. Guan Zhilin smiled happily, there was a dressing mirror not far from the stage, and she walked around in a mink coat in front of the mirror, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it.

Peter Wen took the opportunity to say, "Miss Guan, let's eat together at noon." ”

Guan Zhilin was about to agree, but suddenly remembered Kang Jianfei's call to her last night, and immediately shook her head and said, "No, I made an appointment today, let's do it another day." ”

Peter Wen smiled: "This won't be an excuse to reject me, right?" ”

Kang Jianfei watched from the side for a while, and felt that it was time for him to appear. (To be continued.) )
