My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 881 New Movie and Invitation

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket.

Tsim Sha Tsui East Shangri-La Hotel, Kowloon, is also known as "Xiang Ji" in the mouth of the rich and petty bourgeoisie in the city.

In 1981, Guo Hecheng, who forged a legend in Lijiapo, landed in Hong Kong and entered the hotel industry on Hong Kong Island.

This is the glory of Shangri-La later.

As soon as you enter the door, you can feel the charm of Xiangji, which is praised by many people as a fairyland in the city.

At that time, in order to ensure that this Shangri-La was worthy of immortality, Guo Hecheng not only hired a top design team to carve out first-class facilities, but also rushed to make two masterpieces for the lobby during the renovation.

One is the first indoor fountain in Hong Kong, and the other is the famous "Xanadu" mural.

In front of Xiangji Gate, the Bentley with the license plate number 818 just came into view, when the paparazzi squatting here saw it, and they all came forward to take pictures.

"Sheng Wu, there are reports that you are visiting the vegetable market with Ms. Wang's parents. Does it mean that something good is coming?"

"Your movie has not been released for a long time, and movie (shu) fans (you) are saying that they can't wait, how do you explain it? Also, I haven't seen your new work for a long time, what is the reason?"

"It is rumored that 1024 Locomotive, a film production company under your company, will go public. May I ask Mr. Wu if the news is true..."

"Is it true that a certain sister from Hong Kong performed an abortion for you?", "There are rumors that you have an ambiguous relationship with a female artist under your banner..."

The bodyguard escorted Wu Xiaozu out of the car, surrounded by seven or eight paparazzi, Yuji and even Caiji all chased after him and asked questions.

A black turtleneck sweater as the base, and a light-colored or high-order casual double-breasted suit with a large color difference, which brings out Wu Xiaozu's masculinity and mature charm.

"First of all, I would like to thank everyone for your attention and trust in me and my company. There are relevant persons in charge of the operation of specific companies. I think they have more say than me. If there is a good thing about me, I will tell you as soon as possible. Everyone.

As for work, I actually never stopped making movies.

After the release of "Dragon Inn" at the beginning of last year, I made two films with different styles, "Seven Sins" and "Gunfire", and also supervised the film "Dark Flower".

Now I am filming a sports-themed film "Steel Roses" in the mainland. The latter is the first Hong Kong film to involve sports-themed films. It is a breakthrough for Hong Kong films and my own style.

And has contacted with a French film company, may start shooting a co-production this year.

As for what Miss Hong Kong said she had an abortion..."

Wu Xiaozu patted the paparazzi of "Yes!" magazine in front of him with an unabated smile, and joked without any annoyance: "First of all, I am not dating any Hong Kong sister, we are just friends.

Even if the gun goes off, I've always been used to carrying an umbrella.

It seems that it is necessary for me to reflect on the issue of sex education for young people with the Minister of Education... By the way, do you have a girlfriend?Remember to take safety measures. "

"Hahaha..." The rest of the paparazzi laughed loudly, and the other party's humorous answer brought their relationship closer.

"Wu Sheng, what brand of umbrella are you wearing?" an entertainment reporter from ATV asked.

"You ATVs dare to ask this kind of question. Are you afraid that you will be complained by your teacher when it is broadcast? Or has the ratings of ATV dropped to such a point?" Wu Xiaozu smiled and pointed at the other party. The audience burst into laughter, and the atmosphere was abnormal. harmony.

"Wu sir, is it true that your company threw millions at this year's annual meeting?" Someone asked suddenly, pulling his neck.

"millions?"

Wu Xiaozu smiled forcefully, "Your reporter's news is out, and I have asked the person in charge of the company to increase it to 1000 million Hong Kong dollars. Last year, the company made money.

For these wealth, I have always believed that I am the temporary custodian of these wealth.

Therefore, every year, a part of it will be given back to the society. You can check it out. Last year, the foundation under my name donated a lot.

I myself climbed up from the bottom bit by bit. I know the suffering of the bottom employees, so I always regard all the grassroots employees of the company as my brothers. I have to be responsible for thousands of families.

To let them live a better life and make more money, I think I have an obligation and a responsibility.

So this year, we took out 1000 million Hong Kong dollars and distributed money to employees.

On the premise that the company is profitable, I hope to share 2000 million or more with everyone next year..."

The employees of the company are all my brothers!

But a dawdler is not worthy of being my brother!
If he is expelled in the future, it will definitely not be my brother!

If you are a brother, let me kill you!

coax!
The paparazzi on the scene were instantly excited, and many of the paparazzi of the company were proud of their chests. Apart from other things, he would at least get a red envelope at the annual meeting...real money!
Everyone thinks this way...

This is really a conscientious entrepreneur! !
Thinking about the stinginess of my boss, and then looking at the handsome, unrestrained, suave, masculine and charming Mr. Wu...

"Brother dei, is your "Daily Daily" still recruiting people?"

The Shangri-La Tea House is not far from the indoor fountain.

She has short hair, is very small, looks beautiful or intellectual, but she has a very character and style. She is scratching her head while drinking coffee while flipping through the script.

She originally wanted to go to the United States for vacation during this time, but she didn't expect to receive a script suddenly.

This surprised her.

She certainly has no shortage of scripts!
Her movies are both box office and critically acclaimed, and her records are both selling and critically acclaimed.In other words, she can be regarded as an intervener in every era of the Chinese music and film world. She intervened in the Wanwan love literary film, and now she also intervenes in commercial films on Hong Kong Island. She also intervenes in singing. Awarded that she was also involved in the...

It can be said that she has a strong network and status in the music and film circles. Compared with the crappy older literary and artistic young women like the little aunt, she is really the first generation of genuinely talented women in the entertainment industry.

After the Golden Horse Awards last time, she suddenly received the script in front of her.

It's fine if there are other people, but she must accept his play...

"Sylvia, have you been waiting long?"

Wu Xiaozu asked the waiter for a cup of tea, smiled and untied his suit and put it on the sofa, "Do you want to order something to eat? I often come to Xiangji, and the pastry made by their pastry chef is very good. Last time, Guo Da and I At least he joked about poaching his pastry chef."

Young Master Guo was the one who was in love with Ms. Deng bitterly and infatuatedly. At the beginning, there was a lot of trouble, which can be described as unforgettable... Then he turned around and married a coquettish Dongying woman...

"I want to~ I remember you used to be on the peninsula all the time?"

"There are too many paparazzi over there."

"There are a lot of noodles, right?? I just saw quite a few Yu Ji squatting outside."

Since Wu Xiaozu gradually liked to drink tea here, executives of the group company, celebrities and other people in the digital department and many other practitioners in the industry have also fallen in love with this place, and even many small stars and small models hope to come here in order to get opportunities , will come here specially.

This also brought fire to the teahouse here.

Therefore, this time, [-] also specially put the annual meeting in Xiangji.Of course, the young master of the Guo family also personally gave instructions, and even personally introduced many advertising businesses under the group to Star Entertainment.

Sometimes it is easy to do business in the same class and circle.

"Follow them, I actually don't like being interviewed, and I don't like explaining myself to more people..." Wu Xiaozu shamelessly said nonsense.

That's right.

The person in front of me is Zhang Aijia, who is Wu Xiaozu's young girlfriend who is actively working as a mistress.She and Wu Xiaozu are really good friends. Some time ago, the issue of the Golden Horse Awards and the issue of Chinese films were often discussed with each other.

The main reason is that Zhang Aijia is really not Wu Xiaozu's favorite dish.

Short, dry and thin, no peaches, no legs, not to mention big breasts...it doesn't take anything.

But in this way, the two can maintain a normal friendship after all.

By the way, her uncle is Mr. Zhang Beihai, the one who wrote "Xia Yin", which was later adapted into Jiang Wen's "Hidden Man".Although it has been changed beyond recognition by Jiang Wen.

"Haha, me too."

Zhang Aijia covered her mouth and smiled, "It's annoying! That's why I keep saying that sometimes being a celebrity is not good at all, but it's not as interesting as studying in the United States."

"Yes, reading is very good." Wu Xiaozu thanked the waiter and took the tea.

"That's when I came out of a traditional family, and then all of a sudden I was in New York... and it felt like—"

Zhang Aijia opened her hands and gestured with a smile, "With a bang, it feels like the whole world has changed from the confinement of Wanwan to a new place of cognition... At that time you go to see...you go to re-understand the world...

Special... How should I put it, it feels very special and earth-shattering.At that time, I often followed the parade to Central Park to protest..."

"clear."

Wu Xiaozu folded his legs and smiled slightly, happy America, shooting every day!What a beautiful landscape~ I understand.

"Have you ever thought about what it would be like to stay there all the time?" He asked after taking a sip of tea.

"I really thought...I think I must be a hippie. I will not know what I want to do for a long time, the kind with no direction."

"Why did you come back?"

"Maybe it's because I have too many boyfriends hahahaha... Mom thinks... um..." Zhang Aijia clapped her hands and laughed.

Wu Xiaozu couldn't help but laugh too.

"By the way, why did you think of handing me the script?" Zhang Aijia was very curious.

Originally, she received the script, but when she heard it was written by Wu Xiaozu, she was very happy.Then I found that it was different from what I had imagined. She was not invited to act, but to be the director!
The theme is also a very small youth film theme.

"Is it a reason to invite you to join [-]?" Wu Xiaozu joked with a smile, and then said seriously: "I have seen your "Favorite", and the director is quite good. So I think it is better to find you Come and try."

"But this theme is very different from "Favorite", right?"

"But the first person I think of is that you are the most suitable for this drama." Wu Xiaozu smiled and glanced at the title of the script in front of him——

"Flash Girl".

Yes.

It’s that movie that became shitty in marketing~~ It’s the one that posted a “kneel down and apologize” poster on Weibo with the text, “I’m sorry, please don’t miss a good movie because of our mistakes!” Send the team!

Wu Xiaozu hopes to use this film to promote "Girls TWICE". Such a film with a female perspective must also take into account the freshness and understanding of traditional and classical music. The first director he thought of was Zhang Aijia.

The director of this play must understand music.

Of course, Two-dimensional can’t be mixed in. Two-dimensional has really not become popular in this era.

In fact, the routine of this drama is roughly similar to "Swing Girl", and the structure is basically the theme of music + youth.

Such a drama is very suitable for the drama of girl TWICE.The subject matter echoes their current image without going too far.In fact, it is difficult to find suitable dramas at this age.However, a play like "Flash Girl" is undoubtedly no problem.

In the past, only Dongying singers and groups in Asia could sell results.But this time, the six young and beautiful girls proved their worth with their income.

The new album Hong Kong Island has sold 8 platinum and 40 copies, and Wanwan has sold 50 copies in just one month. Dongying and Korea have received good responses, and even the Chinese in Southeast Asia and overseas such as Malaysia have also received good responses. .

Zheng Xiuwen, Quan Shui, Yan Zhenghua, Li Xiaozun, Li Coco and Cai Shaobing really complement each other. They are in charge of singing, appearance, and dancing... These six people who can make a lot of achievements in solo are not 1 in the group With the power of +1+..., the number of Wei Fan and Tuan Fan is increasing day by day.

At this time, Wu Xiaozu couldn't bear the leek powder that he fertilized himself if he didn't come up with a play to attract a wave of money.

"I also like this script very much, it is very clean, and I often think of myself when I was young when I saw many places..." Zhang Aijia finally agreed.

"It's better to consider joining [-]. You know, [-] really achieves equality between men and women. In other companies, it's hard to see female executives like Yu Cheng, Jiang Jiahua, Le Yiling, and Li Jinwen. , but we can really treat people equally. I have always been a determined woman who loses to men in some ways." Wu Xiaozu also sent an invitation.

Zhang Aijia itself represents a huge network and energy.

At the same time, her own management and administrative ability is also very, very strong. At the beginning, she was the head of the branch of New Art City in Wanwan, and she personally supported projects such as "Hitch the Wrong Car".

"Really? You have to be clear, the movies I like may not necessarily make money."

"I am a businessman and a filmmaker. We have made ten commercially profitable films, but we can also produce one theme that does not seem to be so profitable. I have always believed that only good commercial films can repay literary films... Otherwise, it will be true. Let the staff who started working with us have no food??" Wu Xiaozu was vigilant.

Hey!
It seems that I have to go to brush up again as soon as possible!
Some time ago, those guys mentioned this kind of problem, and now Zhang Aijia also said the same thing.

It was right to shoot "Seven Sins" by myself!

hum!

Want to catch up with me... I will spend my money on a Cannes Award!

Anyway, no one understands these routines at this time.

He must wear Chinese riders and international signs, otherwise he will lose this layer of color, and he will have no advantage...

"If you are willing to come, I can let you be in charge of literary films." In order to develop its films, literary awards are actually necessary.

"My side is sweeping the couch to welcome you."

"Let me think about it." Zhang Aijia was also moved when she heard the words.

For literary and art workers like them, it is actually quite painful to shoot that kind of commercial film all day long... this must be understood.

This is also the reason why she parted ways with New Art City in the first place.

"Let me prepare for this drama first~~ But the actors..." Zhang Aijia looked at the list of characters next to the script, and frowned, "I'm not sure if they are really qualified, I have to investigate it myself."

"No problem, this is your right." Wu Xiaozu shrugged.

Although it is a supervisory center system, since Zhang Aijia was invited, Wu Xiaozu can't completely regard him as a tool person.However, the possibility of changing the main characters is very narrow... This kind of youth film actually doesn't pay much attention to acting skills, they just act in stories of their current age group!

　I’m crazy. I just watched the backstage. There was actually a book that spent 100 starting coins to offer a reward to ask me how to treat paronychia... I was shocked!
　　I'm at a loss... I've been sick for such a long time, huh? ? ?

　　When it's not serious.

　　Step [-]: It is recommended to go to a nearby pedicure shop for trimming. Step [-]: Go to the pharmacy to buy erythromycin ointment and apply it on the paronychia with a cotton swab. Keep water as little as possible, and you can take it with a little anti-inflammatory drug orally.Step [-]: Do not wear canvas shoes, leather shoes, etc.

　　Then resign yourself to fate.

　　Here's a suggestion for a suffering old paronychia!Look up~~~
