Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 15 Lin Zhengying's Troubles
"What's the matter? Did you know him before?" Lin Daoqiu thought that Guo Youhua had known Lin Zhengying before.

But Guo Youhua shook her head. She didn't know Lin Zhengying before, and it was only the first time meeting him today.

"Since you don't know him, how do you know he can't be the director?" Lin Daoqiu asked with a smile.

"He is too young. Directors need to be very experienced." Guo Youhua has been filming since she was a child. The directors she has seen all started at least in their 30s, but she has never seen a director in his early [-]s. When the director.

Lin Daoqiu nodded after listening, then he looked at Guo Youhua, pointed at himself and said, "Then do you know how old I am?"

I looked Lin Daoqiu up and down for a while, and I saw that Lin Daoqiu was probably in his early twenties, but he was very mature in his actions, so he shouldn't be too young.

Guo Youhua thought for a while before giving his own answer: "About 25."

"I'm sorry you guessed wrong this time, I'm the same as you." Lin Daoqiu took out his ID card from his body, and then shook it in front of Guo Youhua. It clearly stated that Lin Daoqiu was born in 1960.

Looking at the year of birth on Lin Daoqiu's ID card, Guo Youhua was so surprised that she opened her mouth wide open. She never thought that Lin Daoqiu had only one, which was simply unbelievable.

Looking at Lin Daoqiu with an expression of disbelief, Guo Youhua didn't know what to say for a moment.

Lin Daoqiu joked: "You signed the contract, even if you regret it now, it's too late."

"How could I regret it, I... I just didn't expect you to be as old as me." Even though he knew that Lin Daoqiu was only, Guo Youhua didn't have any thoughts of not acting in this drama.

From the script to the actors, plus everything Lin Daoqiu arranged, he is definitely not joking, but is really planning a movie.

But Guo Youhua's belief in Lin Daoqiu does not mean that she also believes in Lin Zhengying's ability. In addition to the script, the director is also an important part of knowing whether a film is well shot.

"That's why you believe that he can be a director?" Based on his trust in Lin Daoqiu, Guo Youhua's doubts about Lin Zhengying also began to loosen.

"Don't think he can only play tricks now, but he is usually a martial arts instructor. You should know Bruce Lee, right?"

Bruce Lee is a hero in the Chinese world. Even Guo Youhua, who was studying far away in Tokyo, could hear his glorious deeds from time to time.

"Brother Xiaolong is Brother Xiaolong, he is him, how can you confuse them." Guo Youhua didn't understand why Lin Daoqiu put Lin Zhengying and Bruce Lee together, she thought it was inappropriate.

"If I tell you that he is Bruce Lee's most trusted martial arts instructor, without him Bruce Lee would rather not turn on the phone, would you believe me?"

After listening to Lin Daoqiu's words, Guo Youhua was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear. It is definitely not ordinary people who can make Bruce Lee so trustworthy. If it is really like what Lin Daoqiu said, then it is absolutely no problem to ask him to be the director.

But at this time, at the filming scene, Lin Zhengying looked distraught, just because of this, he was accidentally hit by a stick during the routine, which made him grin hoarsely in pain.

"Aying, what's wrong with you today? You look out of your mind? Is something wrong?"

The people next to him noticed that something was wrong with Lin Zhengying. Usually, with his skill, not to mention this cudgel, even the most difficult movements would not trouble him.

Lin Zhengying quickly shook his head. He is not a person who can hide his thoughts. Lin Daoqiu came to him suddenly, which made Lin Zhengying think too much, and this affected his performance on the spot.

"I'm fine, let's do it again." Lin Zhengying hurriedly restrained himself from thinking about those things, and forced himself to calm down and finish filming the scene first.

Finally surviving until the end of his part, Lin Zhengying felt that this half hour was the most difficult time for him in the past few years.

"Maybe the other party is just playing tricks on me..." Lin Zhengying suddenly had this thought, but after a few seconds he shook his head and vetoed it.

If I'm just looking for a cameo actor, do I need to travel all the way to Shaw Brothers to meet me?Moreover, Guo Youhua was also brought along, and Zhong Fa said that she was the heroine of that play.

The leading role is Yuen Biao, and the main villain is Zhong Fa. In this way, there are no important roles in the film, but Lin Zhengying thinks it would be nice if there is a supporting role, at least he doesn't have to play tricks on the set all the time.

Lin Zhengying came to the tea restaurant with an uneasy mood, and he saw Lin Daoqiu and Guo Youhua sitting in the corner at a glance.

"I'm sorry Brother Qiu, I kept you waiting." Lin Zhengying apologized to Lin Daoqiu as soon as he came up.

Looking at Lin Zhengying, who was still young and immature at this time, Lin Daoqiu thought it was so interesting that he almost couldn't help calling him Uncle Ying several times.

"Brother Ying, it's not appropriate for you to call me Brother Qiu. How about it? I'll call you Brother Ying and you call me Aqiu from now on. That's it." Lin Daoqiu didn't give Lin Zhengying a chance to refuse. He glanced at Guo Youhua next to him.

"Yeah Brother Ying, you are older than Aqiu, it's so strange that you call him Brother Qiu, you should call him Aqiu." Guo Youhua knew from the look in Lin Daoqiu's eyes that he wanted to help him persuade Lin Zhengying.

"Okay, Aqiu, I don't know why you came here to see me?" Lin Zhengying looked a little embarrassed. He was both looking forward to and worried in his heart. He hoped that Lin Daoqiu could give him a supporting role, but he was also afraid that the other party would not have this. idea.

If you don’t know Lin Zhengying, you might think he’s not easy to approach when you see his sullen face, but if you know Lin Zhengying, he’s actually a good guy, and he’s absolutely dedicated to his work. If so, Uncle Ying would not have died young at the age of 45.

"Actually, I'm here to find Brother Ying this time. I want to ask you for help." Lin Daoqiu almost told Uncle Ying, but fortunately he changed his words in time, otherwise it would be embarrassing.

"Tell me, Aqiu. If there is anything I can do to help you, I will do my best." Lin Zhengying agreed without thinking too much, and he didn't even ask Lin Daoqiu what he wanted to do with him.

"I believe Brother Ying should already know that I have invited Yuen Biao and Zhong Fat to act in my movie."

Lin Zhengying had already heard Zhong Fa talk about this matter, so he just nodded and remained silent.

"I came to see Brother Ying this time because I hope to invite you to be the director of my film." After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, Lin Zhengying still nodded before he could react.

But a few seconds later, Lin Zhengying seemed to feel that something was wrong. He looked up at Lin Daoqiu with a look of confusion in his eyes, as if he didn't hear what Lin Daoqiu said just now.

Then Lin Zhengying's eyes changed from confusion to doubt, and finally to surprise, and then he stood up from the chair suddenly after reacting.

"You...you...you want me to be the director?" Lin Zhengying looked at Lin Daoqiu incredulously, and began to stutter. He couldn't believe that Lin Daoqiu actually asked him to be the director. Isn't that true? Are you kidding me?
"Yes, Brother Ying's skills are more than enough to be a director." If he hadn't seen Lin Zhengying's movies in later generations, Lin Daoqiu would not have had such great confidence in him.

But at this time, Lin Zhengying was only 25 years old, and there were still 1989 years before he became a director for the first time in 11. At this time, Lin Zhengying was far behind the 35-year-old him in terms of experience and directing level. Far.

In Xiangjiang, who can become a director at the age of 25, he can definitely be called a genius. Lin Zhengying doesn't think he is a genius, but the olive branch that Lin Daoqiu throws at him is very attractive to him.

For a moment, Lin Zhengying was caught in a battle between heaven and man. He didn't know whether to agree to Lin Daoqiu's invitation, even though he really wanted to nod.
