The richest man

Chapter 12 Quick Gunner!
Tonight, the moon and stars are sparse.

Zhang Zhenghao had been standing on the balcony smoking for a long time.

"Dad, it's a good thing to leave Shaw Brothers, what's so sad..." Zhang Jun shook his head and comforted him.

Zhang Zhenghao sighed slightly: "You don't understand, I have been in Shaw Brothers since I was 16 years old, and it has been 25 years now..."

Hearing this, Zhang Jun didn't say anything anymore, even if he had been in a company for so long, he would still have some feelings.

The cool wind blows, and the cigarette butts flicker.

After a while, Zhang Jun said, "Dad, since you have resigned, come over and help me directly. It's my first time making a movie, and you just happened to be a check-in for me."

In fact, although Zhang Jun is the first time to be a director, he is not timid at all. The movie "Snake Shaped Hands" is not difficult to shoot. The reason why he invited his father to do it is actually to be lazy.

After all, Zhang Jun didn't want to be a director at all.

Being a director is hard work, but being a boss is different.

If you are a boss, you can sit in the office with the air conditioner on, and have a beautiful and sexy secretary give you a massage. Does it smell good?Simply delicious!

Alas, it's a pity in Zhang Jun's heart, the news that he is going to shoot "The Snake-shaped Hand" has already been publicized, otherwise he would have asked his father to make this movie, and he would control the direction a little bit and make it out The effect should be about the same.

"Then I'll come over to be the producer and check it out for you!" Zhang Zhenghao didn't think about it, and nodded directly. He is currently the general manager of Zhang's Film Company, but the company has nothing to do right now.The producer is responsible for the total expenditure budget of the film crew and the preparation of the specific shooting schedule of the film, etc., and its importance is no less than that of the director.

……

Day three.

"Serpentine Hands" is officially launched.

After hearing the news, many reporters rushed here, the main purpose of which was to interview Zhang Jun, a cutting-edge writer who has never seen the end!

Seeing the real person, the reporters almost mistook him for an actor.He is so handsome, but instead of acting, he becomes a director, what a waste of a good face.

"Sheng Zhang, you just graduated from university, do you have the ability to direct a movie?!"

"Zhang Sheng, it is said that the lead actor in "The Snake-Shaped Hand" is just a newcomer, why not just use a charismatic star to ensure a high box office?"

"Zhang Sheng, you are so handsome, why don't you play the leading role yourself?"

"Zhang Sheng, if you make a movie, will it affect the serialization of "Zhu Xian"?"

"..."

"Zhang Sheng" means "Mr. Zhang", and Hong Kong people are used to calling it "what student".

Facing the questions from the reporters, Zhang Jun selected a few to answer.

At this moment, there was a commotion not far away.

Hearing the reputation, Zhang Jun saw that the two big bosses of Golden Harvest, Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchong, both appeared on the set.

"Congratulations, good luck with the boot!!!"

Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchong walked hand in hand, looked at Zhang Zhenghao and Zhang Jun and his son, clasped their hands and smiled.

"Zhang Sheng, hello, we meet again!" He Guanchong greeted Zhang Jun, then pointed to Zou Wenhuai, and introduced to Zhang Jun, "This is Zou Wenhuai, the founder of Golden Harvest Films and Chairman of Golden Harvest Films (Group) Mr. Zou!"

"Mr. Zou, hello, I'm Zhang Jun." Zhang Jun extended his hand to shake hands with Zou Wenhuai.

Zou Wenhuai nodded with a smile, looked at Zhang Jun, shook hands and said: "Hello, Zhang Sheng, you are indeed a good-looking talent! Guan Chang also told me that you are very handsome and very suitable for acting. When I saw you today, you are indeed so. How about it, are you interested in becoming an actor? We, Golden Harvest, can fully support you!"

Hearing this, Zhang Jun quickly shook his head and said, "No, I'm not very interested in the career of an actor. I personally prefer to rely on talent instead of relying on appearance!"

Zou Wenhuai said with a smile: "Hahaha, your talent is obvious to all. The "Zhu Xian" you wrote has become popular in Hong Kong, and even I have read your masterpiece! By the way, Zhang Sheng, we at Golden Harvest intend to buy "Zhu Xian" Movie copyright, what do you think if you want to bring this novel to the screen?"

Without even thinking about it, Zhang Jun shook his head and refused: "Mr. Zou, I'm sorry, with the current level of film special effects, it may be difficult to make a good fairy movie, so I don't want to sell the film and television copyright of "Zhu Xian" just yet. "

When Zou Wenhuai heard this, he didn't force it. He also knew that it was not easy to make such a movie, the cost was high, and the risk was high.But since Zhang Jun didn't sell it, he didn't mention it anymore.

This time Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchong attended the launching ceremony of "The Snake-shaped Hand" together, their attitude is obvious, they are to support and win over Zhang Zhenghao and Zhang Jun and his son, and there is also the meaning of buying bones with a lot of money, so that the outside world can see how Golden Harvest is. Those who value talents, you should join our Golden Harvest camp as soon as possible.

Zhang Jun was also a little surprised. He didn't expect the two bosses of Golden Harvest to save face so much. He thought that he would ask his father to make more movies and release them in Golden Harvest theaters in the future.

An hour later, after the noisy opening ceremony, Zhang Jun asked the reporters to leave, and then officially started filming.

The shooting of the film is in full swing and very smooth.

The crew were all shocked by Zhang Jun's showmanship. The director Zhang Jun seemed to know how to shoot and act the movie. It took only 7 days for the movie to be completed. He can be called "Hong Kong's No. [-] Fast Shooter" "!"
In addition, what is even more shocking and bizarre is that there are very few places that need to be edited in this movie, and it was finished in one day, which is an exaggeration!The subsequent soundtrack was also completed by Zhang Jun himself.

However, Zhang Jun still dare not boast that he is the fastest filmmaker. In 1991, "The Banquet of a Noble Family" was filmed in only 4 days, and "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji: The Demon Cult Leader" filmed by Wang Jing only took 7 days. sky.

Compared with the above two films, "Snake-shaped Hands" is actually easier to shoot, but it still took Zhang Jun 7 days, probably because of excellence...

Zhang Jun thought so shamelessly.

Soon, the news that "The Serpentine Hand" was finished also spread along with the disbandment of the crew.

"Filming a movie in seven days, is it shoddy, or what?!"

"The great writer Zhang Jun only made movies to make money, and he didn't put his heart into making movies well!"

"Trash movie, book fans, don't be fooled!"

"..."

Many people in mahjong parlors, schools, restaurants, hotels and other places have a lot of discussion about the finalization of "Snake-shaped Hands".

Shaw Films.

Shao Yizhen looked at the newspaper and said with a smile: "Hehe, it's not impossible to finish a movie in seven days, but the quality must be problematic. What's more, Zhang Jun, a young man, has just graduated from university. I don't believe he can make a good movie." Movie!"

Fang Yihua smiled lightly and said, "That's for sure, but the movie "The Snake Shaped Hand" is quite a gimmick, and it has already caused a lot of controversy. By the way, the post-production of Zhang Zhenghao's movie "Wudang Heroes" filmed for Shaw Brothers is about to be completed, why don't "Wudang Heroes" compete with "Serpentine Hands" to compete for the box office, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Run Run Shaw suddenly smiled in amazement: "Father and son confront each other?! Haha, it's interesting, it's a good gimmick, and "Wudang Heroes" will definitely achieve a good box office result!"
