Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1588 Fortunately, I was blindfolded

Chow Yun-fat's matter was resolved smoothly, and this was also because he had already figured it out.

What happened back then is over, there is no need for me to be blocked by this hurdle, the most important thing is to get back on track.

And what Chow Yun-fat thinks is on the right track, at least he has a movie to shoot every year, and it's not the kind of small-produced movie.

Otherwise, if he continues to consume like this, the reputation he has accumulated through hard work will be wiped out.

The addition of Chow Yun-fat is definitely beneficial to New Oriental.

Although it is not yet at the point where yin prospers and yang declines, the pillars of New Oriental are still biased towards women.

Brigitte Lin can be regarded as New Oriental's leading actress. After all, she is the actress with the highest cumulative box office in the world, and all the movies with her as the protagonist are calculated.

In addition to Brigitte Lin, there is also the newly promoted female star Michelle Yeoh, whose momentum has been rising since "Sister Royal".

After New Oriental lost Yuen Biao and Sammo Hung, two top martial arts stars, Jackie Chan naturally became the head star of New Oriental.

Although compared with Lin Qingxia, Jackie Chan's performance is far inferior to the other party's, but compared with actors from other companies such as Di Bao, Jackie Chan's performance can still stabilize them.

However, since Jackie Chan transferred to New Oriental, he has been making films led by himself, and this is also because Lin Daoqiu gave him a lot of freedom.

It's just that when Lin Daoqiu invited Jackie Chan to join New Oriental, the other party agreed because Lin Daoqiu could expand overseas markets for him.

But now Lin Daoqiu seems to have forgotten about it, and the promise he made at the beginning has not been fulfilled, which makes Jackie Chan not very happy.

For the sake of the new play, Jackie Chan invited Deng Jingsheng and a few people from Chen's class to sit together.

We were supposed to talk about a new play, but Jackie Chan couldn't help complaining.

"Mr. Lin has been focusing on Xiangjiang for the past few years. "Godzilla" was produced before. I think that even if Brother Long goes to find Mr. Lin, he may not gain anything."

As Jackie Chan's queen screenwriter, Deng Jingsheng is an important think tank for Jackie Chan, and he must be on Jackie Chan's side to consider the problem.

"Are we going to keep waiting? I've been waiting for almost two years. When will it be the end of this waiting?"

Jackie Chan wholeheartedly wants to make a splash in Hollywood, but now he can only stay in Hong Kong to make movies.

After the filming of "Red Fan District" before, no film has been released in Hollywood in the past two years. I am afraid that the audience there has long forgotten him. It is no wonder that Jackie Chan is anxious.

"Isn't Mr. Lin going to shoot "The Return of the Great Sage" recently? Brother Long can take this opportunity to ask his character, and remind Mr. Lin by the way to see how he responds."

The person next to him gave Jackie Chan an idea, asking him to take advantage of the movie "The Return of the Great Sage" to test Lin Daoqiu's tone.

When Jackie Chan heard it, he felt that this was indeed a good idea.

"You're right, just ask Mr. Lin."

Anyway, "The Return of the Great Sage" is the opening drama of New Oriental's studio. As a member of New Oriental, Jackie Chan will definitely play a role in it. He can take this opportunity to find Lin Daoqiu.

…………

Jackie Chan came to Lin Daoqiu's office early the next morning.

As soon as he sat down, Jackie Chan didn't mention his own affairs, but talked about the movie "The Return of the Great Sage" and the role he would play.

""The Return of the Great Sage" is still in the preparation stage, and the role has not yet been finalized, but Aaron can rest assured that you must play an important role in it."

Lin Daoqiu didn't think about what he wanted Jackie Chan to play, but as one of New Oriental's leading stars, Jackie Chan would naturally not just play tricks or make a few cameo appearances in this big drama, he would definitely play an important role.

Jackie Chan was not surprised by this, because it was a matter of course.

He came to Lin Daoqiu today not at all for the movie "The Return of the Great Sage", but for his Hollywood movie.

"Mr. Lin, I have also made two films in Xiangjiang in the past two years. The box office results were not bad, but I found that I encountered a bottleneck. I want to try a different direction, such as focusing on overseas markets first."

Jackie Chan said something cryptic, but Lin Daoqiu immediately understood the meaning of the other party's words.

Jackie Chan's movie box office is as good as ever, and the box office score of 4000 million is a breeze for him.

"It's normal for Aaron to have such thoughts, but Xiangjiang is our base camp. If we put all our energy overseas, we will lose our foundation. This is by no means a good thing."

Lin Daoqiu does not object to Jackie Chan filming abroad, but what he does not want is that the other party completely puts down the Xiangjiang market, and then puts all his efforts on overseas markets.

It's just that Lin Daoqiu's ideas and Jackie Chan's ideas are in conflict. At this point in time, Jackie Chan still hopes to become famous overseas and become the second Chinese who can become famous internationally after Bruce Lee.

"Mr. Lin is right. It seems that I have too little knowledge."

Jackie Chan smiled awkwardly, he didn't expect Lin Daoqiu to say that, which made him suddenly feel uncomfortable.

"It's understandable for Aaron to want to develop overseas. When I sent you the invitation, I promised to make a few Hollywood movies for you. I haven't forgotten this."

Although Lin Daoqiu said so, if it wasn't for Jackie Chan's visit, he might have thrown this matter out of the blue.

But Jackie Chan didn't know Lin Daoqiu's thoughts, he thought he had wrongly blamed Lin Daoqiu when he heard what the other party said, but in fact the other party was always thinking about him, it was just that the timing was not ripe.

"Don't worry, I'm already preparing for this movie. The name of the movie is "Rush Hour". You will play the leading role in this movie and go to Hollywood to make a big splash."

Lin Daoqiu's words are completely made up, but it is indeed difficult for him to shoot "Rush Hour".

Because Chris Tucker, who originally partnered with Jackie Chan in this movie, is only about 15 years old at this time, and it will take at least a few years before he is suitable for filming this movie with Jackie Chan.

So now Lin Daoqiu is looking for another person to partner with Jackie Chan in "Rush Hour", but it does take some time.

"Thank you, Mr. Lin, if that's the case, then I'll go back and wait for news."

Even the name of the movie came out, Jackie Chan didn't think that Lin Daoqiu was deceiving himself, so after thanking Lin Daoqiu, he left the other party's office contentedly.

After Jackie Chan left, Lin Daoqiu could breathe a sigh of relief.

"Huh... Fortunately, I was covered."
