Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1385 Difficult Brothers

"Do you know those two people?"

As soon as Lin Daoqiu entered the restaurant and sat down, his eyes couldn't help but drift to those two guys.

Even Brigitte Lin beside him noticed this problem.

"Well, they also make movies. Mr. Wang was a screenwriter at New Oriental before."

Lin Daoqiu was indeed not familiar with these two guys, but he was very familiar with them.

The guy wearing sunglasses is called Wong Kar Wai. He used to work as a screenwriter at New Oriental, but he was assigned to New Art City. He ran away because the script was not taken seriously.

As for the chubby guy with him named Liu Zhenwei, he is a good brother of Wong Kar Wai.

Lin Daoqiu did not expect to meet these two guys during the Chinese New Year, it was really interesting.

If he had met them earlier, Lin Daoqiu might have considered asking Liu Zhenwei to make a New Year's Eve film.

As for Wong Kar Wai, Lin Daoqiu didn't know how to use him. If he wanted to win an award, it would be fine to go to Wong Kar Wai, but if the movie wanted to be a blockbuster, it would be best not to go to him.

"Ah Sheng, go and invite Mr. Wang and Mr. Liu to have a gathering together."

Lin Daoqiu felt that since he met, he might as well invite him over to have a meal and have a good chat.

Fang Jinsheng nodded when he heard this, then got up and walked towards Wang Jiawei and Liu Zhenwei.

As soon as Fang Jinsheng walked up to them, the two of them turned their gazes to Fang Jinsheng almost at the same time.

Wong Kar Wai has a good memory. Although he is no longer working as a screenwriter in New Oriental, but for the famous person next to Lin Daoqiu, Wong Kar Wai will never forget it.

"Assistant Fang, what do you do?"

With a whoosh, Wang Jiawei stood up directly from his chair.

Fang Jinsheng didn't have much impression of Wang Jiawei, but he was also surprised to see that the other party recognized him.

"It's like this. Mr. Lin is over there. I want to invite Mr. Wang and Mr. Liu to have a meal together."

After Fang Jinsheng finished speaking, he pointed in the direction of Lin Daoqiu with his hand.

Looking in the direction Fang Jinsheng's hand was pointing at, Lin Daoqiu was nodding towards them.

"Okay, okay, let's go now."

At this time, Wang Jiawei dared to say no. Although he didn't know why Lin Daoqiu invited them to dinner, Wang Jiawei thought that the other party might come here to find fault because he left Xinyi City to go to Dibao.

If this is the case, then I'm afraid he will have a miserable life on the first day of the new year.

Soon Fang Jinsheng brought Wang Jiawei and Liu Zhenwei to Lin Daoqiu.

The two of them just stood there obediently, not daring to move, just like two elementary school students who did something wrong.

"Gong Xi Fa Cai, great auspiciousness, happy new year both of you."

"Gong Xi Fa Cai, good luck, Mr. Lin, happy new year."

Lin Daoqiu stood up and shook hands with them.

"Sit down and talk."

After the two of them sat down, they realized that besides Lin Daoqiu, Brigitte Lin was also there.

Earlier there were rumors that Lin Daoqiu and Lin Qingxia had an unusual relationship, but those were all written in gossip magazines.

On the first day of the new year, Lin Daoqiu went out to eat with Lin Qingxia. It would be difficult to convince people that they had nothing to do with each other.

Compared with Liu Zhenwei, Wang Jiawei can say that his heart has already been raised in his throat. What he is most worried about now is that Lin Daoqiu will make trouble for him.

Although he has left New Oriental, he is no longer the screenwriter of New Oriental.

But Lin Daoqiu's influence in Xiangjiang is increasing day by day, and he is also the president of the Performing Arts Association.

If he said a word, his already worrying situation would become even worse.

"If I remember correctly, Screenwriter Wang should be working in New Art City, right?"

Hearing Lin Daoqiu's question, Wang Jiawei's face began to turn pale.

Liu Zhenwei next to him lowered his head silently. He didn't expect that Lin Daoqiu didn't know that Wang Jiawei had left Xinyi City and transferred to Dibao.

He mistakenly thought that Lin Daoqiu thought that Wang Jiawei was still working in Xinyi City, so he wanted to invite them to dinner.

If he knew that Wang Jiawei had transferred to Dibao, Lin Daoqiu would not even bother with them.

"It was indeed like this before. Today Zhen Wei invited me out to watch "The Migrant Emperor".

Wong Kar Wai didn't dare to continue the conversation on this issue, he strongly changed the topic to the drama "The Working Emperor".

After finishing speaking, Wang Jiawei turned his head to look at Liu Zhenwei, motioning for him to help out.

"What Jiawei said is right. The filming of "The Working Emperor" was really good. Like us, we can't write such a good script, nor can we make such a good movie."

These two brothers and sisters can be said to have reached the point of mutual understanding, as long as the other side makes a look, the other side will immediately understand and react immediately.

Originally, they thought that Lin Daoqiu would not continue to ask questions if the topic was brought up to the drama "The Migrant Emperor".

But it's a pity that Lin Daoqiu is the kind of perseverance when it comes to what he wants to know, and he won't be fooled by the other party just because he shifted the topic to another place.

"According to what Mr. Wang said, could it be that you have already left New Art City?"

Lin Daoqiu didn't expect Wang Jiawei to leave New Art City, so where is he working now?Are you still in New Oriental?

"Hehe...Mr. Lin, it's actually like this. I'm not very talented. Mr. Huang and Mr. Mai think that I should go to practice again, so I temporarily left New Art City to re-learn script writing."

"Oh...then I don't know where Mr. Wang is now?"

Although I don't know whether what Wong Kar Wai said is true or not, but judging from Huang Pak Ming and Mai Jia's requirements for the script, the script written by Wong Kar Wai is obviously not in line with their wishes.

For Lin Daoqiu's question, Wang Jiawei was stuck in his throat, no matter whether he was telling the truth or lying, it was of no benefit to him.

Telling the other party that he has switched to Dibao is simply an act of suicide.

But if he cheated Lin Daoqiu at this time, if he knew that he had been transferred to Dibao for a period of time and dared to lie in front of him, then only God would know what would happen to him.

"What's wrong? Is this question difficult to answer?"

Lin Daoqiu found that although Wang Jiawei kept smiling on his face, his smile seemed a little stiff.

Thinking about it carefully, there are only two possibilities to make it so difficult for Wang Jiawei to say, he is either in Golden Harvest or Dibao.

If it was these two companies, it would be normal for Wong Kar Wai to have the current reaction.
