Chapter Twenty-Four: The Old Man Has Different Ideas, Yu Yi First Arrived in Xiangjiang
Xu Laowei frowned and said: ""Journey to the West" is only popular in the mainland, and it has not yet reached the incense platform, so it's not necessary, right?" Besides, it's just a small supporting role, and the impact it can cause is destined not to be too big. ”
Wu Baige shook his head and smiled: "It's good to be popular in the mainland, what we want is the name "Journey to the West", the mainland is so poor, how many people can afford to watch movies?" There are still a lot of markets for gun version discs,
As long as you grasp the current fame of "Journey to the West", you will not be bad if you want to sell the videotapes.
Mainland Tsai has never seen many of our Xiangjiang movies, and he must be very curious about our films, and if he does it properly, he may be able to return to his roots sooner, and we will have no worries about fighting in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Moreover, the mainland economy is backward, the mind is closed, and film and television production is also garbage, our Hong Kong and Taiwan film and television industry is already in a period of vigorous development, and Hong Kong and Taiwan have introduced mainland TV dramas in the mainland.
So I don't think Mainland Tsai will refuse our request, and I guess maybe he will be happy like a pug with bones. ”
Xu Laowei frowned and said: "I can't agree with your approach, it's impractical to sell dog meat on the head of a sheep, and crooked ways are never a long-term way.
We have roughly written the script, as long as it does not affect the filming of the movie, I reserve my personal opinion. ”
Wu Baige smiled: "That's okay, I'll find someone to contact this mainland boy." ”
So the two began to act, and it took a lot of effort to finally find Yang Jie's phone.
Wu Baige said arrogantly in broken Mandarin: "Hello Director Yang, I am Wu Baige, a well-known film director in Xiangjiang, and I recently watched Director Yang's "Journey to the West".
There is a role in my new movie that is very suitable for the actor of Red Boy, please ask Director Yang to tell me the contact information of that little guy, and I will contact him. ”
Yang Jie frowned, her initial impression of this guy was not good.
However, thinking of the popularity of Hong Kong and Taiwan film and television dramas over the years, I had to pinch my nose and say: "Then I'll look for it, and I'll call you back when I find it." ”
After Yang Jie hung up the phone, she called a few people in the crew to talk about it.
Wang Chunqiu hesitated for a moment and said: "Xiaoyi is so young, I heard that Hong Kong and Taiwan are very chaotic, and the underworld is very rampant, forget it, if the little guy is interested, it will not be too late to go when he grows up." ”
Li Chengru shook his head and smiled: "I think it's good for children to have more experience, isn't Xiaoyi already famous now?" If you can catch the car of the Hong Kong and Taiwan film circles, it is not impossible to completely catch fire in the future. ”
Yang Jie hesitated for a moment and said: "Call me this person and say that he is Wu Baige, I haven't heard much of this name, and his attitude is not very good, so I am also a little worried." ”
Li Chengru laughed and said: "You have forgotten Grandpa Xiaoyi, I estimate that the old man will most likely send someone to protect Xiaoyi, and it must be no problem to come to Xiaoyi's safety.
Besides, Xiao Yi's talent is so good, and he hasn't fallen behind in his studies, wouldn't it be a pity if such a good opportunity was given up by us? If it doesn't work, it's good to let Xiao Yi see it in Xiangjiang. ”
Wang Chunqiu frowned and said: "Although I also think Xiao Yi is very talented, I always feel uneasy in the past at such a young age, after all, I am not familiar with life." ”
Yang Jie said: "Then let's contact Grandpa Xiaoyi first, listen to his opinion, and then let's contact this well-known director in Xiangjiang." ”
Several people thought about it for a while, and felt that it was all right.
So Yang Jie dialed Grandpa Yu Yi's phone again to talk about it, and told them their worries.
The old man was silent for a while and asked, "Director Yang, do you really think Xiao Yi really has that talent?" Will he be able to go far on this path? ”
Yang Jie thought for a while and said: "Grandpa Xiaoyi, it is said that the three-year-old looks old and the seven-year-old looks small, I don't know his three-year-old, but his seven-year-old is what I watched grow up,
I don't know about other aspects, but I am very talented in art, if I hadn't stopped me at that time, Xiao Yi might have been taken away by an old artist to be a child, you think about it, we are mainly worried that the child is too young and unfamiliar with life. ”
The old man closed his eyes and thought for a while, and said domineeringly: "Lao Tzu has been fighting with people with the army since he was a teenager, and the little cub is not going to fight with people this time, when the time comes, I will let people look at him, I think it should be no problem,
It's better for the cub to go out and see a lot, otherwise it will become a flower in the greenhouse, that's not what I want. ”
Yang Jie replied: "Okay, then I'll tell Xiao Yi about your arrangements, and then tell Xiao Gao about the situation." ”
The old man said sincerely: "Director Yang, thank you for taking care of Xiaoyi, don't dare to say anything else, if there is no problem with the old man, you can find me, the old man is still a little capable." ”
Yang Jie laughed and said: "Grandpa Xiaoyi, you have already helped our crew a lot, and besides, Xiaoyi's child ...... at that time."
The old man laughed and said: "He's him, I'm me, the little guy is still a little bit of a child, I admit this favor, you can call me if you have something." ”
After hanging up the phone, the old man called the guard next to him and said, "Xiao Li, you take my grandson to Xiangjiang after a while, the little cub is estimated to stay in Xiangjiang for a while, and I will trouble you to take care of him when the time comes." ”
Xiao Li frowned and said, "Leader, I'm here to protect you." ”
The old man waved his hand and said: "I'm here all day long, if there is still an accident here, then Lao Tzu should also go out of the mountain, and then I will trouble you." ”
Xiao Li saluted and said, "This is what I should do." ”
The old man waved his hand and said: "This is my personal request, I will make a report, your expenses during this period will be deducted from my subsidy, and you have saved a lot of money over the years, which should be enough for you." ”
So Yu Yi was inexplicably sold to others.
At the beginning of March 1986, Yu Yi followed Xiao Li to Xiangjiang with a confused face.
On the way, he learned that he was selected by Wu Baige to star in "The True Color of Heroes".
But after listening to it, he still looked confused, if he remembered correctly, there was no plot of children in this movie, let alone a mainlander like him.
But this is a good thing, "The True Color of Heroes", then he can meet Fa Ge, Brother, Dillon, and others.
I was excited, I didn't expect my first director to be "The True Color of Heroes", which is really good.
However, after coming to Xiangjiang, the two were pointed at along the way, and it seemed that there was something like mainland boy.
The two of them couldn't speak Cantonese, so they had to stare at each other wide-eyed.
I have to say that the current Xiangjiang is worthy of being the first of the four Asian tigers, where the lights are brilliant, like daylight, and there are many high-rise buildings here, with a strong modern atmosphere.
Xiao Li was stunned all of a sudden, he didn't expect Xiangjiang to be so developed.
