Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1611 Promotion
When Lin Daoqiu came to the crew of "Rush Hour", the director on the scene had become Jackie Chan.

When the film started, Jackie Chan and Lin Daoqiu were basically in charge of filming on one side.

Later, after the film became official, and Lin Daoqiu acquired MGM, a lot of things were waiting for him to deal with, so Jackie Chan took over the director of "Rush Hour".

As for Terry Leonard, he became Jackie Chan's deputy and assisted the other party in the filming.

After this period of time, with the help of Terry Leonard, "Rush Hour" is advancing in an orderly manner.

And because of Lin Daoqiu's successful purchase of MGM, those rebellious Hollywood actors and staff are willing to obey Jackie Chan's orders.

Otherwise, when Lin Daoqiu is not around, with Jackie Chan's prestige at this time, it may be very difficult to direct those Hollywood actors and crew.

"Mr. Lin..."

Seeing Lin Daoqiu coming to the crew, Jackie Chan and Terry Leonard immediately greeted him.

"You go on filming, I have something to talk to Terry about."

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Jackie Chan nodded immediately, then turned around and went back to continue preparing for the next filming.

Terry Leonard did not expect Lin Daoqiu to come to the set this time to find him, which surprised him.

"Go over there and talk."

Lin Daoqiu took Terry Leonard, who was still in a daze, to a clean place aside.

After confirming that there were no idlers around, Lin Daoqiu officially chatted with Terry Leonard about the "007" movie.

"MGM has a classic movie called "007", you must have heard of it?"

"Of course, this movie is not only MGM's classic detective action movie, but I also like this movie very much."

Terry Leonard didn't think too much about it, but Lin Daoqiu asked about the movie "007", and he just answered like this.

"Before MGM planned to start shooting "007", the director was John Grant, but after I bought MGM, I delayed the film, and I replaced the director and the leading actor."

Terry Leonard didn't seem to understand why Lin Daoqiu said this to him.

He was just a small assistant director, and Lin Daoqiu didn't need to tell him about such things.

But before Terry Leonard could figure out why Lin Daoqiu wanted to tell him this, the other party suddenly threw him a shocking topic.

"I plan to ask you to be the director of the new "007" movie, what do you think?"

"Let me be the director of "007"?"

Terry Leonard pointed to his nose, he looked at Lin Daoqiu in shock, he seemed very surprised, because he never thought that he would have the opportunity to direct a movie like "007" one day Big IP movie.

Patting Terry Leonard on the shoulder, then turned his back to him, Lin Daoqiu said lightly.

"During this period of time, you have given me a very good impression. You are down-to-earth and willing to work, and you never complain about things. You don't complain behind your back like everyone else. I appreciate that."

If Terry Leonard hadn't looked like a foreigner, Lin Daoqiu would have even thought he was Chinese.

Terry Leonard didn't expect that he was just doing his job well, which would also become an advantage in Lin Daoqiu's eyes.

But in the entire crew, there are not many people like him, which is one of the reasons why Lin Daoqiu looks at him differently.

"How about it, are you interested in giving it a try?"

Lin Daoqiu turned around and looked at Terry Leonard. Although he asked like this, Lin Daoqiu didn't think Terry Leonard would be willing to miss such a good opportunity.

You must know that he is just a small assistant director now. If he has the opportunity to direct such an influential movie as "007", he will immediately become a well-known director in Hollywood.

And Lin Daoqiu believes that the box office of "Living at Dawn" will never be lower than [-] million when it is released on Christmas.

Take last year's North American box office as an example. Regardless of "Godzilla", the No. 2 movie was "Back to the Future" distributed by Universal. This sci-fi movie earned 1000 million at the North American box office.

The highest-grossing movie in North America this year is "Top Gun" released by Paramount. It is the movie that made Cruise really famous, but the box office of this movie is only 7000 million in North America.

As long as "Life of Dawn" can break through [-] million, it will be able to secure the box office champion of North American movies this year.

"I... can I really?"

Terry Leonard still can't believe that he can get such a good opportunity.

"I think you should believe in yourself, and you don't have to worry, there will be many people around to help you make this movie well, don't worry."

The reason why Lin Daoqiu asked Terry Leonard to be the director was because Lin Daoqiu knew that he would be very firm in carrying out his will.

What Lin Daoqiu wants now is someone who can make movies completely according to his own ideas, and Terry Leonard is the most suitable candidate.

"Since Mr. Lin is willing to give me this chance, I will not let you down."

Terry Leonard immediately took over as the director of "Life of Dawn" after being surprised. He knew very well that this was probably the best opportunity in his life. If he missed it this time, he would like to meet such a good one again Chances are clearly unlikely.

"That's good, you don't want to be the assistant director of "Rush Hour". What you have to do now is to familiarize yourself with the script, and by the way, get acquainted with the male and female protagonists. The filming of this film will officially start in a month, so you have time It's quite ample."

During this month, Lin Daoqiu will improve the script and make some revisions.

Although the script of "Life of Dawn" has been completed as a whole, there are still some things that Lin Daoqiu doesn't like.

Taking advantage of the time when Lin Daoqiu is revising the script, Terry Leonard can also get acquainted with the cast and crew, so that the next filming work can make a good start.

After Lin Daoqiu left, Terry Leonard still felt dizzy, and he even worried that he was just fantasizing just now.

"Terry, what are you thinking?"

While Terry Leonard was still standing there blankly thinking about something, Jackie Chan walked over for some unknown reason, and then patted him on the shoulder.

Being shot by Jackie Chan, Terry Leonard was taken aback.

"Jack, you have to find someone else to be the assistant director. Mr. Lin asked me to make another movie."

"Oh... then congratulations."

Jackie Chan did not expect Terry Leonard to be entrusted with a heavy responsibility by Lin Daoqiu, he asked the other party with a smile.

"I don't know the name of the movie that Mr. Lin asked you to make?"

When Terry Leonard heard Jackie Chan's question, he didn't say anything, but turned to the other side suddenly.

Then he suddenly turned around and made a handsome shooting action.

"Bond, James Bond..."
