Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 286
Although full of doubts, Wang Jing decided to cooperate with Wen Jun and the others.

After all, the only ones who are willing to invest in him now are the two of them. If they don't look for them, then I'm afraid they have to talk to Uncle Liu.

Even if he gets a good box office by then, I'm afraid he won't get much money.

But after Wang Jing nodded in agreement, Wen Jun suddenly looked at Zheng Danrui next to him, as if the two had nothing to say.

"A Jing, in fact, I came to you today not only to invest in your script, but also to invite you to join our film studio."

I'm afraid this is Wen Jun's main purpose for inviting Wang Jing here today.

Originally, Zheng Danrui and Wen Jun were full of energy at the beginning, and they wanted to show their talents after opening the studio.

But after they actually operated, they realized that without Lin Daoqiu's help, they could only make some urban romantic comedies, and they couldn't make any money at all.

So Wen Jun put his mind on Wang Jing, hoping that he could join the studio.

Wang Jing obviously didn't expect Wen Jun to have such an idea. At first, he wanted to refuse, but suddenly swallowed the words back.

Zheng Danrui and Wen Jun are now leaning against Lin Daoqiu. Their good days have just begun. If they join their studio, they don't need to worry about no one investing in filming.

You must know how many people Wang Jing has visited in order to find investment these days. Those guys all boasted that they were like flowers, but as soon as they were asked to pay, they changed the topic to other places .

It can be said that the warmth and coldness of human relationships these days made Wang Jing realize that before you really became famous, others would not take you seriously at all.

If you join Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui's film studio, you don't need to worry about production costs.

At that time, I can shoot whatever I want, and invite whoever I want, it's simply not too cool.

"Do you think I can do it?"

This was obviously Wang Jing's excuse. He had already decided to join, but he had to be reserved before that, otherwise he would agree to it as soon as the other party said it, and it would be embarrassing.

"Of course it's no problem. A Jing, you have a very keen sense of smell in commercial films. If we work together, we will definitely be able to make many blockbuster films."

Wen Jun nodded repeatedly, because he already felt that Wang Jing was interested in joining them.

After listening to Wen Jun's words, Wang Jing hesitated for more than ten seconds, and then nodded.

"Since you believe in me so much, I'll give it a try."

Wang Jing looked very embarrassed, but in fact he was already happy in his heart.

Now others can't do anything to gain Lin Daoqiu's glory, but I joined Zheng Danrui and Wen Jun's studio easily. This is luck that even envy can't.

…………

""A Thousand Kings Fighting a Thousand Tyrants"?"

Looking at the script on the table, Lin Daoqiu remembered that this movie was Wang Jing's first directorial work when he saw the name.

He didn't expect that Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui planned to use this drama as their opening work.

Opening the script of "A Thousand Kings Fighting Thousand Tyrants", Lin Daoqiu read it carefully.

The plot is not much different from the one in the previous life. It is about a movie about gambling. Although Wen Jun and the others haven't said who the actor is to invite, Lin Daoqiu has actually thought of the lead actor's name.

It is certain that Xie Xian will play Luo Sihai. After all, at this time Xiangjiang can play the role of such a gambling king well, and only Xie Xian is the only one.

As for who played the role of Xiaoqianwang, Lin Daoqiu can't remember, but this drama seems to sell well, and it has become Wang Jing's famous work.

"You wrote this play?"

After Lin Daoqiu put down the script, he looked at Zheng Danrui and Wen Jun in front of him with strange eyes.

Even if these two people have thick skins, they can't say that the script was written by them.

"This script was written by Wang Jing, who has joined our studio, so I plan to use this play as the opening work of our studio."

Wen Jun answered honestly that he and Zheng Danrui had carefully read the script before coming here.

After watching it, they felt that the film was very interesting, so they decided to ask Lin Daoqiu to make a decision.

But what Zheng Danrui and Wen Jun probably didn't expect was that Lin Daoqiu didn't have much interest in this movie, but he was more interested in Wang Jing.

"Others don't know, but you should be very clear about my relationship with Shaw Brothers. You invited Wang Jing to your studio at this time? What do you mean?"

After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, he threw the script on the table, and just as he said what he meant, Zheng Danrui was already frightened and began to get nervous.

He opposed Wen Jun's cooperation with Wang Jing from the very beginning, and what's even worse now is the actors to be hired for this drama.

Until now, Lin Daoqiu didn't know that they planned to invite actors from Shaw Brothers to play the leading role.

However, compared to Zheng Danrui's nervousness, Wen Jun looked very relaxed.

"Brother Qiu, I think Wang Jing is very good at writing scripts, so I invited him into our studio. As for why we made this movie, it is because I think this movie will definitely be a hit. If Shaw Brothers makes it We're at a loss."

Before Wen Jun came, he had already thought that Lin Daoqiu would be angry, so he had already figured out how to explain it to the other party.

It is absolutely impossible to panic here, it will only make Lin Daoqiu more unhappy, so he has to behave calmly.

Unexpectedly, Wen Jun was quite calm, which was a bit beyond Lin Daoqiu's expectation.

In fact, Lin Daoqiu didn't care what kind of movie they were going to make. It didn't even matter that the actors they hired were from Shaw Brothers. Lin Daoqiu only cared about one thing, and that was whether the movie they made would be a hit.

Even if Zheng Danrui and Wen Jun had a good relationship with him, Lin Daoqiu would not joke with them about making a movie.

If they brought a terrible script this time, Lin Daoqiu would definitely not agree to invest in them.

"It's good for you to have such an idea. Let's shoot this movie according to your wishes. I will give you a production fee of 70 yuan."

At this time, Xie Xian's salary was around [-] yuan, while others paid tens of thousands of yuan per movie.

Unless Zheng Danrui and Wen Jun suddenly go crazy and want to find Sammo Hung or Jackie Chan to act, otherwise 70 is definitely enough.

After all, there are only a few celebrities in Xiangjiang who have box office guarantees, and other than them, the salaries of others are not that high.

"Thank you Brother Qiu, we will definitely work hard to make a good movie."

Neither Zheng Danrui nor Wen Jun expected Lin Daoqiu to agree so easily.

Originally, the two of them had prepared a lot of rhetoric, but now they are all useless.

But before leaving, Wen Jun suddenly thought of one thing that he hadn't told Lin Daoqiu, that is, the actor Wang Jing in this play planned to use Shaw Brothers actors in all roles.

Before coming here, Zheng Danrui and Wen Jun discussed with Wang Jing, trying to persuade him to change actors to act in this play.

But in terms of actors, Wang Jing insisted that Xie Xian should be the protagonist, and they couldn't convince each other.

"Brother Qiu, Wang Jing wants to invite Xie Xian to play the role of Luo Sihai in this play."

Wen Jun finished this sentence tremblingly, and then fixed his eyes on Lin Daoqiu.

Once Lin Daoqiu showed dissatisfaction, or directly vetoed the proposal, then Wen Jun could only change.

After all, without Lin Daoqiu's permission, they didn't dare to make this movie.

But what Wen Jun didn't expect was that Lin Daoqiu, who seemed to be processing the documents with his head down, only replied to him.

"understood."
