Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1852 Are you looking for him?

What Wen Jun was thinking, Wang Jing knew very well, he definitely hoped to make a movie that Lin Daoqiu would approve, so that he could get the other party's forgiveness.

But Wang Jing felt that Wen Jun was thinking too much. If the three of them together could make a movie that satisfied Lin Daoqiu, then they would not be sitting here long ago, and they would have gone to Hollywood to film long ago.

"Ah Jun, based on what you know about Mr. Lin, what kind of movie do you think you should make to get his approval?"

Wang Jing looked at Wen Jun curiously and asked him.

Wen Jun tilted his head and thought for a while before replying.

"The box office needs to be at least 3000 million. The investment can't exceed [-] million. You can't find the most popular people. That's about it."

After Wang Jing listened to Wen Jun's analysis, he couldn't help laughing.

"Do you think it's possible for you and me, plus A Rui, to make a movie with a box office of more than 3000 million yuan without relying on top stars, and it's also a movie that won't be released during the Spring Festival."

Wang Jing doesn't think that Wen Jun's film will be released during the Spring Festival, and if it is even better, it will be around Christmas or before the Spring Festival.

Unless Wen Jun is willing to settle down and spend one to two years polishing the film, then the possibility of success may be greater, but Wang Jing thinks Wen Jun should not be able to wait that long.

Sure enough, Wang Jing's words made Wen Jun fall into deep thought, and he didn't even respond when Zheng Danrui arrived.

Wang Jing told Zheng Danrui what he had said to Wen Jun before, and the other party couldn't help nodding after listening.

A box office of 3000 million is already a very basic condition. If it is low, I believe Lin Daoqiu will definitely not approve it.

"If you can't make a blockbuster movie, why don't we just make a literary film. Compared with a box office of 3000 million, as long as a literary film can get a box office score of more than [-] million, I believe Brother Qiu will definitely look at you differently."

Compared with ordinary commercial films, the box office results of literary films can be said to be very average, and the box office results of better ones are only over [-] million.

However, because the investment in literary films is not large, and the actors will not get too high a salary, so naturally they don't need too much investment.

"Literary and artistic films cost tens of millions? Then don't look for me. If I have the energy, I might as well make commercial films."

Wang Jing doesn't want to spend a lot of time and energy making a literary film, because no matter how successful it is, its box office performance is far inferior to that of ordinary commercial films.

He doesn't mind investing in other people's art films, but if he is allowed to do it himself, then Wang Jing would be very grateful.

"I'm not talking about purely commercial films, such as romantic films, or romantic films with some comedy elements in it."

Zheng Danrui is also very clear, if it is a pure love movie, then don't expect too much box office results.

When Zheng Danrui mentioned the comedy element, a figure suddenly popped up in Wang Jing's mind.

It's just that he didn't know if he should tell this person's name, because his identity was really special.

"What's wrong with you? Seeing your constipated expression, did you think of something?"

Zheng Danrui felt very strange when he saw Wang Jing's expression, as if he hesitated to speak.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of someone. If it's him, maybe he can help Ah Jun think of a good way."

"who is it?"

Wen Jun hurriedly asked.

But Wang Jing, who was questioned by Wen Jun, seemed a little embarrassed.

"You said it, there is no one else here, so what are you afraid of?"

Zheng Danrui couldn't help but shook his head, there were only three of them in this box, there was no outsider and he didn't know what Wang Jing had to be afraid of.

Hearing what Zheng Danrui said, Wang Jing also felt that what the other party said made sense.

"I just remembered Cen Jianxun from Dibao..."

"Cen Jianxun..."

Hearing Wang Jing mention this person's name, both Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui's eyes widened immediately.

When he was in Dibao, Cen Jianxun was fighting with New Oriental. This time he did not follow Sammo Hung and the others to New Oriental, as if he had quit the film industry.

"You don't want me to go to Cen Jianxun for help, do you think I didn't die fast enough?"

Wen Jun felt that what Wang Jing came up with was a bad idea. Lin Daoqiu didn't say how much he hated Di Bao at the beginning, but now that time has changed, Wang Jing actually wanted to push himself into the fire pit.

If Lin Daoqiu knew that he had asked Cen Jianxun for help, plus the previous incident, Lin Daoqiu would have been considered Amitabha if he hadn't sent himself directly to Baodao like Wu Yusen.

"In fact, Mr. Lin has unified the Xiangjiang film industry, and Di Bao has withdrawn from the stage of history. Presumably, Mr. Lin will not mind these defeats. After all, Sammo Hung and the others are back, and Cen Jianxun is nothing."

Wang Jing felt that Lin Daoqiu should not be obsessed with the past, after all, at this time Lin Daoqiu was already unmatched in Xiangjiang's movie circle.

It is absolutely impossible for Cen Jianxun to be able to threaten New Oriental. If he can be pulled over, the film company of the three of them will definitely be much better than before.

While solving Wang Jing's troubles, they can also add a titan to their film company, so why not do it.

"No, no, no, who knows what Brother Qiu is thinking, if he wants to completely ban Cen Jianxun, but we just ran to invite him over, it would be bad luck."

Wen Jun didn't dare to make this decision, he felt the risk was too great.

Zheng Danrui also felt that inviting Cen Jianxun over would probably make Lin Daoqiu unhappy, so he also preferred to let it go.

"I heard that Cen Jianxun was working as a DJ on the radio recently. If Mr. Lin really wanted to ban him, it would be impossible for Cen Jianxun to accept this job."

These are Wang Jing's own guesses, but he feels that the facts and his guesses should not be too different.

And the reason why he insisted on inviting Cen Jianxun over was that he hoped to use the other party's ability to help him film "God of Gamblers" and "The God of Gamblers".

After all, Cen Jianxun is indeed a capable person, especially in the position of producer, his ability is still outstanding.

Although people like Di Bao seem to be relying on Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao, Cen Jianxun, as the general manager of Di Bao, has made a lot of contribution here and must not be underestimated.

"You really want to find Cen Jianxun?"

Wen Jun felt that Wang Jing's idea was too crazy, but on the other hand, he couldn't think of any other better way.

"Tomorrow, I'm going to New Oriental to deliver the script to Mr. Lin. At that time, I will interview Mr. Lin's attitude towards Cen Jianxun. If there is no problem with him, then how about we act?"

Wang Jing offered to test Lin Daoqiu's attitude.

"Since you're so determined to do it, we won't stop you. If Brother Qiu doesn't object, then of course it's fine, but if Brother Qiu objects, don't drag me into it. Remember."

Wen Jun didn't want his name to appear in it before this thing happened, otherwise he would be dead.
