Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1651 I was fooled into boarding the boat
Originally, Leslie Cheung was hesitant to take over "A Chinese Ghost Story", but now that the heroine has been decided, his interest in this drama has also begun to be greatly reduced.

It's not that Leslie Cheung has any opinions on Wang Zuxian, but in his opinion, if he wants to play Nie Xiaoqian, Akina Nakamori is more suitable in terms of appearance and image.

As for Wang Zuxian's figure and appearance, he doesn't quite fit the setting of that kind of weak woman. He and Tsui Hark have almost the same idea on this point.

"Young Master Rong, Mr. Lin learned about the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story", and after reading the script, he appointed Ms. Wang to match you as Nie Xiaoqian."

Tsui Hark's words are only partially true. Lin Daoqiu indeed appointed Wang Zuxian to play Nie Xiaoqian, but he didn't say that he wanted to match Leslie Cheung.

But now Tsui Hark can't control so much, anyway, let's say this first and wait for Leslie Cheung to agree. As for Leslie Cheung asking him to ask him to ask his teacher, that's a matter of the future. The most important thing now is to invite Leslie Cheung to act.

Leslie Cheung, who had originally planned to decline Tsui Hark, immediately showed a surprised expression when he heard what the other party said.

"Mr. Lin appointed Ms. Wang to act as my partner in "A Chinese Ghost Story"?"

Leslie Cheung was so surprised that he didn't know what to say. He obviously didn't agree to Tsui Hark to take over the film, but the other party said this. I'm afraid Lin Daoqiu was misunderstood by Tsui Hark and made such a decision.

"That's right. After careful consideration, Mr. Lin felt that Ms. Wang's partner Rong Shao would have a good effect in this play, so he appointed Ms. Wang to play Nie Xiaoqian."

Shi Nansheng also lied along with Tsui Hark. After all, the husband and wife are of the same mind and want to cut money, so it is nothing to fool Leslie Cheung once.

The big deal is that when Leslie Cheung knows the truth, he should apologize to the other party.

Originally Leslie Cheung had planned to decline Tsui Hark's invitation, but now the situation suddenly took a 360-degree turn.

Tsui Hark and the others actually pulled Lin Daoqiu in, and it was already very difficult for him to refuse now, after all, this was a matter of Lin Daoqiu's own decision.

"You guys really...have a hand."

Leslie Cheung said these words weakly, he never expected that Tsui Hark and the others could handle Lin Daoqiu, this was something he had never thought of before.

"Actually, Young Master Rong, this movie is not what you think, it's actually a modern romance movie in ancient costume."

Tsui Hark specially brought over the character introduction and plot outline, and then talked about the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story" with Leslie Cheung in detail.

Previously, Leslie Cheung only learned about "A Chinese Ghost Story" by reading the script, but this is actually not comprehensive.

After Tsui Hark learned of Leslie Cheung's concerns, he immediately thought of a solution, which was to let the other party really understand the true content of the drama "A Chinese Ghost Story".

Tsui Hark was talking all the time, and Leslie Cheung was listening carefully. After the two chatted for several hours, Leslie Cheung realized that "A Chinese Ghost Story" was completely different from what he had thought before.

Perhaps after Tsui Hark's explanation, or because of Lin Daoqiu's relationship, Leslie Cheung finally decided to take over the role of Ning Caichen.

"Since Director Xu thinks highly of me and has made so many trips, it would be a bit unreasonable for me to refuse you again. I will accept the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story"."

Hearing that Leslie Cheung agreed to take the role of Ning Caichen, Tsui Hark was finally relieved at this time.

Although I don't know what will happen if Leslie Cheung learns the truth afterwards, but now these are not issues that Tsui Hark needs to consider. What he wants now is to start the machine as soon as possible.

When the raw rice is cooked, Leslie Cheung will finish the play no matter what. After all, Leslie Cheung is an actor who is very serious about acting and has a very high professional standard.

Since it is what he promised, he will not go back on his word or change it. Even if Tsui Hark invited him into the crew this time with a bit of deceit, Leslie Cheung will not refuse to act or even run away because of this.

If he hadn't spotted Leslie Cheung's character, Tsui Hark wouldn't have dared to fool him with such things.

A week later, the character makeup of "A Chinese Ghost Story" started in Xinyi City. Before the New Year, Tsui Hark wanted to decide the costumes of Ning Caichen, Nie Xiaoqian and other main actors.

Producer Tsui Hark, director Cheng Xiaodong, assistant director Shi Shaolin, art director Xi Zhongwen, assistant Zhang Dai, costume director Zhang Gufang and the main creators of "A Chinese Ghost Story" gathered together.

Everyone sat around in an office and began to discuss the costumes of Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian.

Before that, Tsui Hark probably had a rough idea of ​​Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian's costume styles, but he still hadn't been able to fully confirm them.

Just as everyone was discussing what kind of look Leslie Cheung should make, the door of the meeting room was suddenly pushed open.

"Mr. Lin and Miss Wang are here."

When everyone heard Lin Daoqiu's sudden visit, everyone was very surprised, and everyone stood up from their chairs.

After Lin Daoqiu brought Wang Zuxian in from the outside, he saw that everyone in the meeting room was standing and waiting for him, Lin Daoqiu smiled and shook his hand.

"Don't be so polite, everyone, please sit down, I'm here to try makeup with Xiaoxian today, you discuss yours, don't greet me."

Although Lin Daoqiu said so, who would dare to take him seriously.

Even after seeing Lin Daoqiu, Tsui Hark automatically gave up the main seat, and sat in the lower left seat.

Although Lin Daoqiu is not the producer or screenwriter of this drama, he is an investor. It is only natural for him to take the lead, not to mention that Lin Daoqiu is their boss.

"Mr. Lin, we're actually still discussing how to style Rong Shao's character, and..."

Xi Zhongwen originally wanted to explain to Lin Daoqiu that they hadn't had time to style Wang Zuxian, but Tsui Hark interrupted him before he finished speaking.

"It's a coincidence that you came here. We all have different opinions on how to style Ms. Wang. I wonder if Mr. Lin can give us some advice."

Unexpectedly, Tsui Hark would say such a thing, Xi Zhongwen glanced at the other party, opened his mouth and didn't know what to say.

For Nie Xiaoqian's appearance in the movie, Lin Daoqiu can say that he doesn't know how familiar it is.

Before he crossed over, he didn't know how many times he watched it just by replaying it or on the computer. For Nie Xiaoqian's appearance, Lin Daoqiu already knew it by heart.

Although I don't know if Tsui Hark is being polite, or if he really wants to give him an idea, but since the other party said so, Lin Daoqiu is also willing to help them get Nie Xiaoqian's costume and style as soon as possible.
