Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 224
"Mr. Lin, hello, I have admired your name for a long time."

David Jiang heard that he was selected for "Mission Impossible" because of Lin Daoqiu's name.

But he had never met Lin Daoqiu before, and he really couldn't understand why Lin Daoqiu would choose him when there were so many male stars in Shaw Brothers.

"Hello Mr. Jiang, nice to meet you."

In fact, the reason why Lin Daoqiu chose David Jiang was because he would not take away the charm of the protagonist.

Compared with Ti Lung, who will subconsciously regard him as the leading actor once he stands there, David Jiang's aura is obviously more suitable for playing a supporting role.

Next to David Jiang, Guo Youhua looked very calm, but even though she looked like this, she was actually very nervous.

Last time at the opening ceremony of "Chu Liuxiang", Lin Daoqiu made a special trip to visit the set, but since then, the two have never met each other.

Guo Youhua even sometimes wondered if it was because he didn't let Lin Daoqiu visit at that time, which made the other party unhappy, so he didn't come to see her at all.

But in fact, Guo Youhua just didn't want people to know about her relationship with Lin Daoqiu. He didn't expect this guy to be so obedient, and he didn't even see her face.

If it wasn't because he named him and picked him into "Mission Impossible" this time, he wouldn't know when this guy would come to him.

But Guo Youhua didn't know that Fang Yihua lied to Lin Daoqiu's selection of her.

Fang Yihua believed that it was impossible for Lin Daoqiu to be so stupid as to stand up and yell that he didn't want to choose Guo Youhua, he would only do so unless he was crazy.

So under such circumstances, Lin Daoqiu could only acquiesce in the end.

"Ah Hua, long time no see."

Lin Daoqiu tried his best to look natural and smiled when he spoke.

"Mr. Lin is right. We haven't seen each other for more than half a year since we last met."

He didn't want the people next to him to think that their relationship was very close, so Guo Youhua emphasized here that he hadn't met Lin Daoqiu for half a year.

"Yeah, half a year has passed in a flash. I remember when I was filming "Master Qian", I was still a nobody."

Lin Daoqiu couldn't help but recall the situation when he first met Guo Youhua last year.

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Guo Youhua also remembered what happened last year, as if it happened yesterday.

"Yeah, we were all just nobody at the beginning, but now you are already the famous producer of Xiangjiang."

"Didn't you also become Shaw Brothers' popular female role, everyone is mutual."

The two of them complimented each other, as if they were a little too polite.

David Jiang knew that Guo Youhua's famous work was "Master Qian", which he collaborated with Lin Daoqiu, so it's not surprising that they knew it.

And he also heard that this time Guo Youhua was also selected by Lin Daoqiu by name.

However, with Guo Youhua's current fame and status in Shaw Brothers, there is absolutely no problem for her to participate in this play.

Even David Jiang felt that even if Lin Daoqiu named her to play the leading role in this play, it would be a matter of course.

It's just that in the end this role fell to Brigitte Lin, perhaps because the other party is more famous.

"What are you talking about so happily?"

At this time, the thing that Lin Daoqiu least wanted to see finally happened. Brigitte Lin walked in from the outside and stood directly beside Lin Daoqiu.

Maybe Lin Qingxia didn't expect that she had already developed this habit when she was in Paris.

During filming breaks, she would unconsciously walk to stand beside Lin Daoqiu.

"Sister Qingxia, long time no see."

When Guo Youhua saw Brigitte Lin, she was very enthusiastic, because they had already collaborated on "A Dream of Red Mansions" before.

"Yes, Ah Hua, long time no see, how are you doing recently?"

Brigitte Lin and Guo Youhua seemed to have endless conversations when they met, so they simply walked aside to chat.

And Lin Daoqiu had no choice but to call David Jiang aside to talk about his role.

"The character you play is a master of firearms and blasting, so before you start filming, you should be familiar with these things. I have already found someone to teach you."

Since you are an expert, you must be different from ordinary people when playing with these things, otherwise it will easily make people feel fake.

"Don't worry, Mr. Lin, I will definitely study hard."

David Jiang nodded.

In fact, this matter is not difficult for him, it is nothing more than memorizing the lines, and then performing proficiently when assembling.

"Then Mr. Jiang has worked hard."

Lin Daoqiu smiled and patted each other on the shoulder.

"Just call me David."

It seems that David Jiang is not used to Lin Daoqiu calling him Mr. Jiang all the time.

"Well, David, the assembly will start today. Xiao Hei and the others will bring the things later, and he will teach you in the future."

Lin Daoqiu handed Jiang David over to Ke Shouliang.

After he finished talking with David Jiang, Lin Daoqiu turned around and found that Lin Qingxia and Guo Youhua seemed to be having a good chat.

Normally, he would have gone over to listen to what the two of them were talking about, but now he didn't dare to go over to join in the fun.

For the next period of time, Lin Daoqiu kept his own place on the set, concentrating on making movies every day, and often put on a very serious expression.

If you don't know Lin Daoqiu, you may think that he is such a serious person.

"You seem a little strange recently."

On this day, Brigitte Lin finally asked her doubts during filming.

Lin Daoqiu made her feel very wrong these days, and it was very wrong. She didn't know that she thought he had become another person.

"What's wrong with me?"

Lin Daoqiu turned his head and looked at the other party in surprise, with a puzzled expression on his face.

"You were not like this on the set before. Why did you suddenly become serious recently? This is very unlike you."

The careful Brigitte Lin has already discovered this problem, so she really wants to know what happened to Lin Daoqiu.

At this time, if she showed a guilty conscience or a nervous look, it would be easy for Brigitte Lin to spot it, so Lin Daoqiu secretly warned herself not to be cowardly.

"People always grow up, don't you like my mature appearance?"

Lin Daoqiu looked at each other and put on a cool expression.

"You don't think putting on a cool look is a sign of maturity."

But as soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qingxia suddenly covered her mouth and laughed, shaking her head while laughing.

"How about I come to your house tonight and you teach me what a mature man should do?"

Lin Daoqiu smiled and blinked at the other party, showing a very annoying expression.

"Fuck you, I don't bother to talk to you."

Brigitte Lin didn't dare to stay here any longer, she got up and left as soon as she finished speaking.

At this time, she was so ashamed that her face began to burn slightly, because she knew what Lin Daoqiu said when she heard it.

Finally fooled the other party away, Lin Daoqiu secretly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, it seemed that he could pass the day safely again.
