Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1814 The more you guess, the more wrong you are
"Zhou Huimin will play Yue Lingshan, is it really okay?"

After Tsui Hark and Cheng Xiaodong left Lin Daoqiu's office, Cheng Xiaodong really couldn't understand why Lin Daoqiu chose Zhou Huimin to play Yue Lingshan.

You must know that she has never acted before, and she is a serious singer.

Although Xiangjiang is also very popular at this time, you can sing while you sing, and you can act when you sing.

As long as they are slightly famous singers, they will be recruited to act in movies. Conversely, as long as they are famous actors, they will inevitably have to release an album.

However, most people focus on their own business, and only a small number of cross-border people will choose to continue after they have made achievements.

In particular, such things as singers filming film and television dramas can be said to be common in Xiangjiang, such as Xu Guanjie, Leslie Cheung, Anita Mui, Ye Qianwen, Alan Tam, Lin Zixiang and so on.

But Zhou Huimin has never made a movie before, is Lin Daoqiu appointing her to play "Swordsman" this time just a temporary idea?

"I didn't think too much about it when I compiled this list. After all, I had put all the famous actresses in front. It stands to reason that Mr. Lin should choose them...but why..."

Tsui Hark couldn't understand why Lin Daoqiu chose Zhou Huimin who had never acted before among so many people.

"Do you think this is Mr. Lin's punishment for us?"

"Punishment? You mean..."

Hearing Cheng Xiaodong's words, Tsui Hark suddenly remembered the real reason why they came to see Lin Daoqiu today.

Tsui Hark, who felt that he suddenly realized, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Cheng Xiaodong's guess should be correct.

"Mr. Lin didn't say it clearly. He should have done it on purpose to warn us not to meddle in our own business in the future, especially things related to him."

Tsui Hark, who guessed Lin Daoqiu's meaning completely wrong, is getting farther and farther away from the correct answer.

What's even more speechless is that Tsui Hark would never dare to ask Lin Daoqiu why he chose Zhou Huimin, but would acquiesce that this was Lin Daoqiu's warning to him.

He even felt that if there was a next time, he might be alienated by Lin Daoqiu.

"Forget it, why don't I help my friend when he's in trouble? Just be more careful next time."

Tsui Hark didn't know what to say, but this time he gave the form to Lin Daoqiu for him to choose, and the people on the list were chosen by himself.

Lin Daoqiu just chose an actor according to the list he gave, and Lin Daoqiu was right both emotionally and rationally.

If you want to blame, you can blame yourself for not treating this watch carefully, otherwise the current situation would not have happened.

"You have one more thing to worry about right now."

Tsui Hark was already annoying enough, but hearing Cheng Xiaodong's words made him frown.

Is there any unlucky thing waiting for me?

"It may not be easy for you to ask Vivian to make a movie. I heard that she seems to have signed with TVB."

"What? She signed to TVB? Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Tsui Hark was taken aback. If Zhou Huimin signed to TVB, it would be very difficult for him to ask her to make a film.

"Scared you."

Cheng Xiaodong smiled and shook his head, he didn't expect Tsui Hark's reaction to be so big.

"Dude, can you stop being scary? I'm tired enough now. If I'm left to deal with TVB again, I'm afraid I'll die of exhaustion."

With the relationship between TVB and Lin Daoqiu, it is almost impossible for them to lend actors to film, at least it was like this before.

But just when Tsui Hark breathed a sigh of relief, Cheng Xiaodong suddenly looked at him seriously.

"I said what I just said is true. I did hear people say that Zhou Huimin signed to TVB..."

Just when Tsui Hark was about to speak, Cheng Xiaodong quickly explained with a smile: "Don't worry, TVB can't make any waves anymore, they dare not stop their actors from coming out to accept the scene, unless they can stop their actors from filming." Movie."

At this time, Lin Daoqiu had completely controlled the Xiangjiang film industry. Except for a few theaters, almost no one in the Xiangjiang film industry dared not to look at Lin Daoqiu's face.

If TVB wants to prevent their artists from cooperating with New Oriental, it will be tantamount to insulating their artists from Xiangjiang's film industry.

Even if Fang Yihua could do it, their artists probably wouldn't want to only make TV dramas. After all, in everyone's impression at this time, actors in TV dramas were of a lower level than actors in movies.

This is also why Chow Yun Fat and Andy Lau insisted on leaving TVB, they just didn't want to shoot TV dramas day and night, but wanted to move to the big screen.

"If Ms. Fang really insists on not letting their actors come out to film, TVB will almost lose all of its top stars in two years, and even if there are any left, they will be old and weak. At that time, TVB will never recover from the fall."

Cheng Xiaodong's analysis was very reasonable, Tsui Hark nodded as he listened, and he didn't even have the slightest objection.

After all, the facts are right in front of our eyes. Uncle Six had already lost Xiangjiang Cinemas before, and now only TVB is left.

Compared with the thriving Lin Daoqiu, Sixth Uncle's influence has been reduced a lot.

If Fang Yihua couldn't see the situation clearly at this time, then TVB might be annexed by Dongshi soon. After all, Lin Daoqiu's resources are overflowing, and if TVB makes a mistake, it will suffer a major blow.

"Since this is the case, let's confirm it with TVB to see if your guess is correct."

Tsui Hark originally wanted to talk to Zhou Huimin, since she has already signed with TVB, then this trip must be unavoidable.

Fang Yihua, who had just returned to her office after the meeting, suddenly heard the secretary say that Tsui Hark and Cheng Xiaodong were visiting, which made her frown unconsciously.

Why did Tsui Hark and Cheng Xiaodong suddenly come to TVB to find him? It stands to reason that they are now the queen director and martial arts instructor next to Lin Daoqiu.

And Tsui Hark is now the hottest director in Xiangjiang, how could they suddenly go to TVB to find him.

"Invite them in."

Although these questions were still in his mind, Fang Yihua hurriedly asked his assistant to invite Tsui Hark and Cheng Xiaodong in.

When Tsui Hark and Cheng Xiaodong entered, Fang Yathua stood up politely, walked around the desk and shook hands with them.

"Director Xu, Director Cheng, you two are rare visitors, please take a seat."

While talking, Fang Yihua asked his assistant to pour tea for them.

"Miss Fang is too polite. In fact, we are here today to ask for something."

It is not an easy task to borrow someone from Fang Yihua.

But the good thing is that Zhou Huimin has never acted in a movie before, and she is not very famous in the music world, so now she can only be said to be a newcomer.

It's just that Tsui Hark had seen her before and left an impression on Vivian Chow, that's why he added her name to the cast list by accident.
