Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 4 Still Making Kung Fu Movies

"Huh... today is almost finished."

After Feilong took the people away, Wen Jun heaved a sigh of relief and slumped on the ground. At first he thought he was doomed this time, but he didn't expect to be able to survive in the end.

Zheng Danrui next to him is not much better, he is just a college student who has not yet graduated, he wears glasses and looks gentle, no matter how he has been beaten like this before, he is still in shock until now.

"Brother Qiu, thank you very much this time, if it weren't for you, we would have been on the street this time." Zheng Danrui did not forget to come over to thank Lin Daoqiu at the first time.

Wen Jun, who was sitting on the ground, also got up quickly: "Brother Qiu, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to keep our hands. You are our lifesaver."

Lin Daoqiu couldn't help being a little proud of being thanked by two later film and television bigwigs no matter how hard he tried to restrain himself, but he didn't show it on his face.

"You two are welcome, I am only this year, you can just call me Aqiu, and this time the fault is not entirely on your shoulders, I am just telling the truth." Lin Daoqiu shook his head humbly, no Take all the credit for it.

When Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui heard that Lin Daoqiu said he was talented, both of them showed surprised expressions almost at the same time.

At such a young age, he didn't even tremble when talking to the boss of Zhongzitang, and the whole process was calm and composed, even if he was a 30-year-old man, the two would believe him.

Although they have temporarily escaped from danger, Zheng Danrui and Wen Jun are not happy, because if they mess up this time, it is not just a matter of one hand.

"You guys go back and rest first, we'll talk when we meet tomorrow." Lin Daoqiu patted the two of them on the shoulders.

Zheng Danrui and Wen Jun also knew that their current state was really not suitable for discussing business affairs, and it was past one o'clock and it was time to rest. Before leaving, Wen Jun left a phone number for Lin Daoqiu, and then left with Zheng Danrui.

"Aqiu..." Zhang Zuming's voice suddenly came from outside the alley. He came out of the theater and found that Lin Daoqiu had no door. He thought something happened to him, so he ran out and shouted his name.

Lin Daoqiu shouted outside: "Amin, I'm here..."

After Lin Daoqiu finished talking, Zhang Zuming hurried over when he heard Lin Daoqiu's answer. As soon as he saw Lin Daoqiu, he asked anxiously, "Where did you go? I thought something happened to you." ?”

"I just encountered a little trouble, but it's okay, let's go back." Lin Daoqiu didn't tell Zhang Zuming what happened just now.

Although he felt a little strange, since Lin Daoqiu was fine, Zhang Zuming did not continue to ask.

On the way back, Lin Daoqiu suddenly found a topic to chat with Zhang Zuming.

"Amin, how is your job doing now?"

"What can I do? It's just doing odd jobs in a restaurant. Eight hundred yuan a month includes food and housing, and I won't make much money if I don't starve to death."

Zhang Zuming worked in a tea restaurant. Because his family was poor, he did not go to school when he was a child. He came out to work to supplement the family when he was a teenager, and he usually went out to find part-time jobs after work. It was very hard.

"By the way, a clerk in my shop is about to resign. You can go to see the boss with me tomorrow. Although you can't make much money in the tea restaurant, at least you won't starve to death." Zhang Zuming was still very righteous to Lin Daoqiu , always wanted to help him find a job.

I am just a person who just came from swimming in the mainland, because Zhang Zuming did a small favor for him at that time, Zhang Zuming has always remembered it in his heart and has been thinking about himself, it is hard not to move Lin Daoqiu.

"Thank you A Ming, but I made an appointment with someone yesterday to go to an interview today." Lin Daoqiu is not interested in working in a tea restaurant. If he hadn't met Feilong, maybe he would have considered it.

When Zhang Zuming heard that Lin Daoqiu had found a job, he was quite happy for the other party: "Then you have to be active. If those bosses see that you are not active in doing things, they will not hire you. By the way, Aqiu, you What kind of job are you looking for?"

"I have a friend who is a screenwriter, and he introduced me to a job as a handyman on the set." Lin Daoqiu did not tell Zhang Zuming about himself for the time being, and he planned to bring Zhang Zuming out after he stabilized.

"Wow... Ah Ming has a friend who is a screenwriter, so good? Be sure to introduce me to him in the future, maybe I will have the opportunity to meet those big stars." Zhang Zuming looked very happy for Lin Daoqiu.

"In the future, I will introduce you to each other when I have a chance." Lin Daoqiu put his arms around Zhang Zuming's shoulders, and the two walked home talking and laughing.

The next day, Zheng Danrui and Wen Jun asked for a few days off together, and they couldn't make it to the TV station with their current appearance.

Sitting bored at home all morning, Wen Jun never waited for Lin Daoqiu's call. Zheng Danrui next to him also looked very anxious. They even wondered if Lin Daoqiu had lost his phone number.

"Brother Jun, what should I do if Ah Qiu accidentally loses his phone number?" Zheng Danrui couldn't help asking.

Wen Jun felt that this question was stupid, but it was not impossible. He looked at Zheng Danrui with a depressed face and said, "How do I know what to do? If he disappears, we have to come. This is a terrible situation."

Because of the failed filming of the last film, the confidence of these two guys has been greatly hit. They are not as confident as they were when the film started, but now they have become constrained and can't write the script at all.

"Ring..." Just as Wen Jun and Zheng Dan were in a state of extreme anxiety, a phone ringing scared them both up from their chairs at the same time.

The two first glanced at each other, but Zheng Danrui reacted first: "Brother Jun, answer the phone quickly, this is your home."

Hearing Zheng Danrui's words, Wen Jun nodded quickly, and immediately picked up the phone.

"Excuse me who?" Wen Jun prayed silently in his heart, hoping that it must be Lin Daoqiu calling.

"I'm Ah Qiu, I'm in the tea restaurant right now, you can tell A Rui and come over together."

"Ari is here with me, let's go there right now." At this time, Wen Jun felt that Lin Daoqiu's voice was as sweet as heaven, and he asked clearly the location of the tea restaurant, and immediately rushed over with Zheng Danrui.

When Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui arrived, they found Lin Daoqiu sitting there drinking coffee and waiting for them.

Neither of them dared to ask why Lin Daoqiu called them until it was almost afternoon, making them wait all morning in vain.

If they knew that Lin Daoqiu was simply oversleeping, I don't know what they would think.

After the two sat down, Zheng Danrui couldn't help asking: "Aqiu, what are you planning to do with this movie?"

"Now the best selling is kung fu movies, so this time I still plan to make kung fu movies."

Lin Daoqiu has already been authorized by Feilong, and he will lead the play. Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui are still newcomers, and with Lin Daoqiu's understanding of the movie last night, they think it should be no problem.

As for Lin Daoqiu choosing to make a kung fu movie this time, they didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Although the last one was a failure, if Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui were to choose again, they would still choose kung fu movies. After all, everyone likes it the most now. It's that type of movie.

In fact, it's not that Lin Daoqiu doesn't want to make other movies, he just doesn't want to make too much money for Feilong, otherwise the other party will definitely try to force him to continue making movies for him to make money.

You must know that Lin Daoqiu is alone at this time, with only Zhang Zuming as his friend, how can he possibly win against the boss of Zhongzitang, so he can only hide his clumsiness, accumulate some experience for himself for the time being, and wait for the future.
