Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1798 The Dream of Getting Rich

Although Shen Dianxia on the side didn't know what happened, but from Lin Daoqiu's words just now, she could sense some meaning.

It seems that Dong Biao and the others should have done something that made Lin Daoqiu unhappy, so he was called over to beat him.

But this matter has nothing to do with Shen Dianxia, ​​and Lin Daoqiu seems to have forgiven them, so she doesn't plan to talk too much.

"Actually, I called you here today because I plan to invite you to act in a play, um... this time the leading roles are Uncle Biao and Sister Fei Fei."

"Well, ah..."

Dong Biao didn't react at first, but after he understood what Lin Daoqiu said just now, he was completely stunned.

Lin Daoqiu actually wanted him to be the protagonist, which is simply unimaginable.

"Mr. Lin, are you right, you want me to be the protagonist?"

Dong Piao pointed to his nose, looking at Lin Daoqiu with an incredulous expression on his face.

No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't understand why Lin Daoqiu suddenly thought of asking him to be the protagonist, it was too unimaginable.

Obviously, he and Wu Mengda just made Lin Daoqiu unhappy, and he made him grateful for not punishing himself, but now he was suddenly selected as the leading actor in Lin Daoqiu's movie, which made Dong Biao unable to understand what was going on. .

"Don't you doubt what Mr. Lin said?"

"No, no, I wonder if I heard it wrong. I definitely don't doubt Mr. Lin's meaning."

Shen Dianxia glared at Dong Piao. Although she didn't know what Lin Daoqiu wanted them to act in, she could be sure that Lin Daoqiu's play would be a hit. There was no doubt about it.

Moreover, after the re-integration of New Oriental Cinemas, the number of theaters has reached 78. In addition, the channels for selling ports have been integrated, and the box office revenue must be much higher than before.

Of course, the most important thing is to be able to act in Lin Daoqiu's movie, and to be the protagonist. This is the thing that makes Lydia the happiest.

Although her main business is in TV stations, if there is an opportunity to make money from filming, of course she will not refuse.

Not to mention that Shen Dianxia usually guest-stars in TV dramas from time to time in Dongshi, but compared to TV dramas, of course she hopes to act in more movies, after all, the money given by movies is not comparable to that of TV dramas.

"This drama is an urban comedy, telling the story of a poor family from realizing their dream of getting rich to finally waking up from their dream."

"Dream of getting rich..."

Dong Piao nodded as he listened, Wu Mengda and Chen Baixiang beside him didn't dare to say anything, because they didn't know if they had a part in the play.

At this time, due to the rapid economic rise in Xiangjiang, the income of residents has been greatly improved, and there are more and more opportunities to make money.

It's just that for some poor people, this kind of opportunity to make a fortune is like a pavilion in the sky, which can only be seen but not touched.

The movie that Lin Daoqiu mentioned is called "The Wealth is Impressing", and it is about a low-middle-income family in Xiangjiang. Uncle Biao works as a news anchor on a TV station, and the family of five relies on his salary to maintain their lives.

His wife, Piao, is keen on buying lottery tickets, and has always dreamed of winning the lottery one day, and then moving from public housing to a big house of her own.

Until one day, the lottery ticket bought by the sister-in-law actually won the first prize, but unfortunately, the bank where they deposited the huge sum of money suddenly closed down, causing them to be beaten back to their original shape.

But the misfortune never comes singly. The news about them winning the lottery has spread, and they were targeted by the bad guys and their little daughter was kidnapped. How should they save their relatives when they have no money.

"The director of this play, I plan to use..."

Before Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

After Fang Jinsheng went to open the door, he saw Gao Zhisen standing outside alone.

"Director Gao is here, please come in."

Gao Zhisen was called by Lin Daoqiu to drink tea, but what he didn't expect was that there were other people present besides him.

"Mr. Lin..."

After greeting the people at the scene, Gao Zhisen sat down.

For this young director who rose to prominence with "Happy Ghost", he has had a good life in New Art City these years, and he is even better at making comedies.

The reason why Lin Daoqiu wanted Gao Zhisen to film "Richness Overwhelming" this time was because he was the director of this movie, so Lin Daoqiu still planned to let him take over the movie in this life.

As for the script, Lin Daoqiu has already written it. As long as Gao Zhisen shoots according to the script he wrote, there will be no problem.

After all, this kind of urban comedy is not difficult for Gao Zhisen. The actors are all experienced actors. In addition, Lin Daoqiu will add the combination of Stephen Chow and Wu Mengda this time, as well as gold medal supporting roles such as Chen Baixiang.

It can be said that this "wealth is overwhelming" is definitely better than the effect of the previous life.

"I will act as the producer and screenwriter of this film, and I will pair you with Liu Zhenwei as the other assistant director."

Although Gao Zhisen hadn't worked with Liu Zhenwei yet, he had heard of this person's name more or less.

According to Gao Zhisen's information, this Liu Zhenwei seems to be very popular with Lin Daoqiu, and he has arranged a lot of job opportunities for him. I don't know if he is an easy person to get along with.

"Except for the script, everything in this film is filmed according to your wishes. As long as you don't deviate from the direction of the script, you can give full play to your ideas. Liu Zhenwei is here to learn from you. You should not hesitate to teach me when the time comes."

Lin Daoqiu has always been interested in cultivating Liu Zhenwei, but he is not in a hurry to adjust him to be a director, just hoping that he can accumulate more experience.

After all, in the previous life, after Liu Zhenwei finished filming "A Chinese Journey to the West", he had almost no famous works, and he has been living on his laurels since then.

Lin Daoqiu does not want such a situation to happen in this life, so he hopes to provide Liu Zhenwei with more opportunities to learn, so that he will not be confined to a certain comedy style.

Liu Zhenwei still doesn't know that he has been selected as the assistant director of "Rich and Rich", and he is still filming "Neighbors in the Street".

Lin Daoqiu didn't call Liu Zhenwei because he didn't want Liu Zhenwei to feel that he valued him very much. He planned to let Gao Zhisen go to Liu Zhenwei and talk to him when the time came.

In this way, Liu Zhenwei should not have wrong ideas, otherwise, if he becomes proud of his favor, this is definitely not the result that Lin Daoqiu wants to see.

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, I will try my best to make this movie well. As for Director Liu, I will discuss with him a lot."

Gao Zhisen felt that for Liu Zhenwei, whom Lin Daoqiu valued very much, he naturally didn't want to offend him.

He only hoped that Liu Zhenwei would never be a difficult person to get along with.
