398 [First Meeting]

Of course, Shaw Brothers is not in the mood to sign Wang Guxian, because of the appearance of Kang Jianfei, Hong Kong in this time and space has an additional new era cinema out of thin air.

Moreover, this new era cinema chain still has sufficient film supply, and the box office grabbing is more fierce than Princess Jin when the schedule is good, which makes the operation of Shaw Brothers Pictures even more difficult.

Fang Yihua has long lost interest in Shaw Brothers, and resigned as a production manager last year to focus on developing TVB, and now Shaw Brothers' production business is in charge of Huang Jiaxi.

In the parallel space, Wang Guxian was recommended to Fang Yihua by Ma Fangzong, the manager of Shaw's Taiwan branch, and Fang Yihua asked Huang Jiaxi to sign it, spending less than half of Yu Kanping's money.

Now, Run Run Shaw has released the rumors of selling theaters more than a year in advance, and Shaw Brothers Pictures is obviously about to stop production, where will there be a new signing.

……

Taipei Songshan Airport.

Wang Guxian's mother stood at the security checkpoint and said to her daughter with some hesitation: "Xiaoxian, I think it's better not to go to Hong Kong, you are only 16 years old now, it is safer to go to Hong Kong to make a movie after finishing school." ”

"Mom, this opportunity is rare, it's the dream factory that filmed "The Wrong Car", don't you also like "The Wrong Car"?" Wang Guxian held his mother's arm and shook it constantly.

Mother Wang sighed and said, "I'm not worried about you, a girl goes out so far away, beware of being bullied." ”

"Ahem," Yu Kanping, who was standing on the side, coughed and couldn't help but interject, "Mrs. Wang, Miss Wang Guxian is the Hua Dan that our boss is going to support, and DreamWorks will take care of everything for her in Hong Kong, so you don't have to worry about someone bullying her." ”

Wang's mother sighed: "Alas, I can't speak Cantonese, otherwise I would have gone to Hong Kong to take care of you." ”

The mother and daughter held hands and talked for a long time, Yu Kanping looked at his watch and reminded: "Mrs. Wang." The time is almost up. ”

Wang's mother instructed uneasily: "Xiaoxian, when you arrive in Hong Kong, call home, and add more clothes when it's cold......

"Oh, Zhilu said, you've said it dozens of times at home!" Wang Guxian said impatiently. For a girl who is about to go away for the first time, Wang Guxian's heart is now full of longing for the future, and there is no reluctance to leave home.

After passing through the security checkpoint, Wang Guxian saw a billboard in the aisle and said to Yu Kanping in surprise: "Your advertisements have actually hit the airport!" ”

Yu Kanping nodded and said, "Fortunately, this drama is co-produced by DreamWorks and Golden Harvest." A little more of the publicity budget is nothing. ”

"Fatal Express" is about to be released in Hong Kong and Taiwan at the same time at Christmas, and now the promotional advertisements have been overwhelming. Before Wang Jixian left the airport in Hong Kong, she saw several identical billboards, which made her even more impressed by DreamWorks.

On the posters of the billboards, the portraits of Cheng Long and Lin Qingxia are the most prominent. Sophie? Marceau, Charles? Bronson and others were around, and there were a few big words "Director Kang Jianfei" in the middle.

"Shall we go to DreamWorks first?" Wang asked after getting into the car.

"It's not." Yu Kanping said. "The company has rented a house for you, you can settle down first. I'll take you to see Mr. Kang tomorrow, and then I'll report to Oriental Entertainment. ”

"Isn't it DreamWorks?" Wang Guxian asked.

Yu Kanping explained: "Oriental Entertainment Company is also Mr. Kang's company, and your economic contract is signed over there, and the company will temporarily arrange Cantonese and acting courses for you, and only sign a film contract with DreamWorks when filming." ”

"Oh. I see. Wang Guxian nodded, feeling that the process was a little complicated.

Yu Kanping said again: "By the way, "Deadly Express" will premiere at the Taiping Theater in two days, if you want to participate." I can get you a ticket. ”

Wang Guxian asked excitedly: "Can you see Lin Qingxia?" ”

"Of course you can, there are a lot of stars invited to the premiere." Yu Kanping said.

"Then I'm going to participate." Wang Guxian said happily.

Looking at Wang Guxian's happy appearance, Yu Kanping shook his head amusedly. Wang Guxian was definitely treated as a first-line star, he arranged housing as soon as he entered the company, and then there was a special living assistant, Yu Kanping felt that Kang Jianfei was a little too high to see Wang Guxian's potential.

……

……

"Mr. Kang, Miss Wang Guxian is here!"

"Let her in," Kang Jianfei put down the phone and said to Chen Shuli, "Sophie? Marceau is in Hong Kong tonight, this piece of paper is her flight number, you can arrange someone to pick it up. ”

Chen Shuli asked, "Do you want to help Sophie?" Does Marceau arrange a hotel? Before, she said that she could not come to participate, and the reserved room had been cancelled. ”

Kang Jianfei asked rhetorically, "What do you say?" ”

Chen Shuli smiled awkwardly, and hurriedly exited the office with the folder.

In less than a minute, Yu Kanping had already brought Wang Guxian in and said to Kang Jianfei: "Mr. Kang, I brought it to you." ”

"You may be seated." Kang Jianfei smiled at the two, but his eyes were staring at Wang Guxian.

Compared with Wang Guxian in Kang Jianfei's impression, the girl in front of her was obviously too immature, and she looked at Kang Jianfei with timidity in her eyes.

Originally, Kang Jianfei was going to shoot "A Chinese Ghost Story" for Wang Guxian next year, but after seeing the real person, he immediately dispelled this idea. Today's Wang Guxian doesn't have the temperament of upside-down beings, just a shy girl who has not been deeply involved in the world. Teach for a few years and wait until she grows up.

But you can't let her be idle all the time, Kang Jianfei thought about it and said: "Lao Yu, the entrepreneurial work of the Taiwan branch, it's better to let Xiaoxian play it." ”

"Let her act in a movie from the Taiwan branch?" Yu Kanping pointed at Wang Guxian and asked, he didn't understand why Kang Jianfei suddenly changed his mind.

Kang Jianfei nodded and said, "Xiaoxian can't speak Cantonese for the time being, so I want her to exercise for a year first." As for the script, I'll give you a framework in a few days, and you yourself have someone from the screenwriting team fill in the details. ”

Yu Kanping had no choice but to accept it, although he was not very optimistic about Wang Guxian, he also felt that this little girl was good, so he had no objection to Kang Jianfei's arrangement.

"You go out first, I'll talk to her." Kang Jianfei said to Yu Kanping.

Yu Kanping stood up and nodded at Wang Guxian, and then said, "Mr. Kang, then I'll go first." ”

Waiting for Yu Kanping to leave the office, Wang Guxian became even more nervous when he faced Kang Jianfei alone. She has long been familiar with Kang Jianfei's name in Taiwan, but now after seeing the real person, she only feels that Kang Jianfei is really very imposing. They were a little afraid to look at him directly.

In fact, this is all a psychological effect, the moment Wang Guxian stepped into the office, she preconceived and began to look up to Kang Jianfei, a "big man".

"Don't be nervous, I won't eat people, take it easy," Kang Jianfei joked, calmed the girl's mood for a while, and then asked in a homely manner, "I heard that you are still studying?" ”

When it came to his studies, Wang Guxian felt a little more relaxed. Secretly glanced up at Kang Jianfei and replied, "I am in the second year of Guoguang Art School. ”

Kang Jianfei showed a kind smile and praised: "I have watched the "This Year's Lakeside Will Be Cold", and you acted very well. ”

"It was the first time I made a movie, and I didn't act very well." Wang Guxian said with some embarrassment. Because when filming "This Year's Lakeside Will Be Cold", she didn't have any acting skills to speak of. It's just that he said his lines with a cold face according to the director's request.

Kang Jianfei stood up. walked up to Wang Guxian and stopped, stared at Wang Guxian's face and admired it, before saying, "I'm not talking about acting skills, but the spirituality that emanates from you." Some people film, no matter how good their acting skills are, the lack of spirituality will make the audience feel isolated. The other kind of actor is different, you can attract the audience's attention as soon as you appear, and you belong to the latter type. ”

Wang Guxian was already at an age of craving for recognition from others, and he was praised by Kang Jianfei, a great director. finally showed a happy smile on his face and said, "Mr. Kang, I will film well in the future, and I will never live up to your trust." ”

"I believe in you," Kang Jianfei encouraged, "I originally wanted to film a film for you, but you don't have enough foundation now." In another year or two, as long as your acting skills are sharpened, I will let you be the heroine of my new play. ”

Wang Guxian tried to hide the excitement in his heart, but the ten fingers of his hands couldn't help but tremble a little. When she was in art school, her classmates often discussed the big directors in Hong Kong and Taiwan, thinking that Kang Jianfei was the most powerful among Chinese directors, and films such as "Home Alone" and "God of Gamblers" could each set off a box office frenzy in Taiwan.

Being able to play the heroine in Kang Jianfei's movie means that she can become a big star in one step, which has infinite attraction for a small actor.

Wang Guxian began to fidget, and asked without words: "Mr. Kang, I heard that your new film will premiere in two days?" ”

Kang Jianfei said with a smile: "Yes, if you are interested in participating, you can ask Secretary Chen outside for admission tickets." ”

"Oh......" Wang Guxian didn't know what to say when she said "oh", she actually wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to get closer to Kang Jianfei, but due to her lack of communication experience, Wang Guxian couldn't find a suitable topic after thinking about it.

Kang Jianfei asked casually: "This time you came to Hong Kong alone, are your parents still at ease?" ”

Wang Guxian hurriedly replied: "My father doesn't care much about me, but my mother is reluctant, and she is afraid that I will suffer in Hong Kong." ”

Kang Jianfei asked again: "I heard that you have practiced basketball before?" ”

"Do you know this?" mentioned what he was familiar with, Wang Guxian also spoke faster, "I used to be on the national high school team, and I belonged to the sports specialty student, and I have been playing basketball with my father since I was a child. ”

Kang Jianfei smiled: "I don't play basketball well, you can teach me another day." ”

"Yes, yes." Wang Guxian smiled and clapped his hands, but after patting twice, he felt that he was not ladylike enough, and immediately quieted down awkwardly.

The two chatted for a while, and Kang Jianfei suddenly said, "It's almost noon, I'll invite you to dinner." ”

Wang Guxian nodded happily and followed behind Kang Jianfei.

The two walked out of the office side by side, and Kang Jianfei said to Chen Shuli: "Prepare a premiere ticket for Miss Wang." ”

"Good job, boss." Chen Shuli watched the two go out side by side, thinking that the boss might have taken a fancy to this little girl again, and sooner or later she would have to eat it in her stomach.

Wang Guxian was not unaware of this, she felt Kang Jianfei's burning gaze when he looked at her in the office. However, Wang Jixian was not annoyed by this, but secretly rejoiced, feeling that he was proud to be able to attract director Kangda. (To be continued......)

PS: Today is my cousin's birthday, I came to celebrate her birthday and found out that her son was seven years old.

Woo woo, I just learned yesterday that the son of a high school classmate is also six years old, but Lao Wang doesn't have a girlfriend yet, it's so sad!
