Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1857
"Sanmao, you haven't had tea with me for a long time. I heard that you and A Biao will star in "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" this time. Congratulations."

Compared with the previous attitude towards Wang Jing, the smile on Cen Jianxun's face when facing Sammo Hung was obviously not of the same order.

"Mr. Lin is willing to give a chance, and this play may not be easy to act."

Sammo Hung shook his hand, but there was still a slightly smug expression on his face.

After all, the movie "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern" is a blockbuster with special effects, and its serialization in newspapers is also very popular.

Compared with the films he made in Dibao, "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is not known to be many times higher than the films he made before, whether it is in terms of popularity, investment, or final box office expectations.

"If you hadn't transferred to Dibao, I guess the achievements you could get would be much higher than what you have now."

When Cen Jianxun and Sammo Hung meet each other, they always have to talk about the past and Di Bao, after all, this is their common memory.

"Dibao is a thing of the past. Since Mr. Pan sold Dibao to Mr. Lin, this company has become history."

Sammo Hung believed that if Pan Disheng insisted not to sell Dibao to Lin Daoqiu, it is estimated that Cen Jianxun is still the general manager of Dibao.

It's just that Lin Daoqiu's price was too high at that time, so high that Pan Disheng couldn't refuse it, so everything that followed was logical.

"Wang Jing came to me before and wanted me to join New Oriental to help their film company. Do you know about this?"

Cen Jianxun suddenly brought up this matter with Sammo Hung because he wanted to know whether Sammo Hung was entrusted by Wang Jing to be a lobbyist.

Otherwise, why would Hong Jinbao suddenly ask him to drink tea? You must know that he is definitely not an idler.

Sammo Hung didn't want to lie to Cen Jianxun, so he nodded directly.

"Wen Jun, Zheng Danrui, and Wang Jing came to see me, hoping that I would persuade you to join New Oriental."

After hearing what Sammo Hung said, Cen Jianxun couldn't help but shook his head while laughing.

"There are many things in the world that are hard to avoid, and I can understand you."

Cen Jianxun didn't blame Sammo Hung, because he knew very well that people can't help themselves in the arena.

Even though Sammo Hung has achieved the status he has today, there are still many things that he cannot control.

"I know that you actually still have ideas about movies, but you don't want to face them because of the grievances you had at the beginning, but sometimes you take a step back, and there is no need to push yourself to this point."

Sammo Hung brought a mission today. He wanted to help Wen Jun and the others persuade Cen Jianxun to let go of his prejudices, but the difficulty can be imagined.

"You are right, but if you want me to let go of my prejudices and help Lin Daoqiu, I really have no choice."

Cen Jianxun shook his head. If it was really that simple, he wouldn't be a DJ now. I'm afraid he would have switched to New Oriental just like Sammo Hung.

How difficult it would be to convince Cen Jianxun, Sammo Hung had already anticipated it before he came.

This time, not only did he want to help Wen Jun and the others, he actually wanted to help Cen Jianxun get out, otherwise, it would be a pity that an outstanding film talent like him would be buried forever.

"Actually, I didn't expect you to agree right away, but I hope you will seriously consider my suggestion."

Sammo Hung didn't have anything better to say, and Cen Jianxun just smiled, but it seemed that he would not agree.

…………

"Cen Jianxun has been quite a shooter recently. Wang Jing, Wen Jun, and Zheng Danrui are not enough. Now Sammo Hung is added. They really like to dig this treasure."

When Lin Daoqiu learned about this, the smile on his face didn't know what it meant.

After Fang Jinsheng reported the matter to Lin Daoqiu, he didn't dare to say a word.

After all, in his opinion, Lin Daoqiu's attitude towards Cen Jianxun is very simple, that is disgust, and there should be no other possibilities besides this.

"What do you think of Cen Jianxun?"

Asked by Lin Daoqiu, Fang Jinsheng spoke slowly.

"He is talented and ambitious, but it's a pity that his strength and ambition don't match."

Naturally, Fang Jinsheng would not say good things about Cen Jianxun, but if he simply hurt the other party, it would appear that he was too out of style.

If it is said that Cen Jianxun has no ability at all, then why did he bring Di Bao to confront New Oriental?

And blindly belittling the other party is actually tantamount to speaking ill of New Oriental, Fang Jinsheng will not make such a mistake.

"You are right. Cen Jianxun does have some talents and talents, but unfortunately, his ambition is too great, and it cannot be equated with his abilities."

Lin Daoqiu never thought of recruiting Cen Jianxun to help, but he didn't mind letting Cen Jianxun help other people film, such as Sammo Hung or Wen Jun.

In Lin Daoqiu's opinion, Cen Jianxun can be a good film producer, or help manage the film company.

However, Lin Daoqiu had someone with higher ability and loyalty than him, so he naturally would not consider Cen Jianxun.

This is also the reason why Lin Daoqiu had no contact with Cen Jianxun from the beginning to the end.

"If Cen Jianxun is not willing to help, it will be very difficult for the three of them to win the box office of 6000 million with the ability of the three of them alone."

Fang Jinsheng seemed to be helping to intercede, but also seemed to be analyzing by himself, but no matter what he said, he must be consciously helping Wen Jun and the others.

After Fang Jinsheng finished speaking, Lin Daoqiu turned his head and looked at him, but this time he didn't get angry or stare at him.

"Some people keep Jinshan but don't know it. Who can you blame for this?"

What Lin Daoqiu said was very strange, at least Fang Jinsheng couldn't understand it when he heard it for the first time.

But Lin Daoqiu obviously wouldn't explain anything to Fang Jinsheng, he waved his hand and the other party automatically retreated.

After Fang Jinsheng, who left Lin Daoqiu's office, returned to his seat and sat down, he kept thinking about Lin Daoqiu's last sentence, but he couldn't figure it out.

The people Lin Daoqiu mentioned must be Wen Jun and the three of them, but Fang Jinsheng couldn't figure out what Jinshan he was talking about.

After hesitating for a while, Fang Jinsheng still called Zheng Danrui.

"Brother Rui, this sentence may be helpful to you."

Fang Jinsheng told Zheng Danrui what Lin Daoqiu said just now, and hung up the phone after making sure the other party heard clearly.

Then Fang Jinsheng knocked on the door and entered Lin Daoqiu's office.

"Boss, I have already called Brother Rui and told him what you just said."

Fang Jinsheng knew very well that if he dared to keep Lin Daoqiu from knowing, once Lin Daoqiu found out that he was leaking secrets behind his back, the consequences would be very serious.

But the strange thing is that Lin Daoqiu didn't react at all to this. After Fang Jinsheng finished speaking, he waved him to leave as before.

Seeing Lin Daoqiu's gesture, Fang Jinsheng heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had made the right bet this time.
