Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 654

"Strong cooperation, Xu Guanwen teamed up with the three generals of New Art City"

Looking at the big headlines in the newspaper, Lin Daoqiu looked quite calm.

But he really didn't expect that Bao Shaogang went to invite Xu Guanwen out just to win him once.

What made Lin Daoqiu even more unexpected was that Jiahe actually agreed to lend Xu Guanwen, they were really generous enough.

Knowing that Jackie Chan has already gone to Hollywood to film "Red Fan District", Jiahe only has Xu Guanwen left.

At this time, they were willing to let Xu Guanwen out. Lin Daoqiu really admired Zou Wenhuai's courage.

"With a salary of 500 million, the box office is divided in half. Bao Shaogang is really generous."

Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui had already read this newspaper before they came.

As for Xu Guanwen's remuneration and account sharing, although it is a commercial secret, it can be known after a little inquiring, and this is also because Bao Shao happened to be very happy.

After he signed the contract with Xu Guanwen, it seemed that he deliberately let people release such news.

"How about it, are you interested? I can give you Bao Shaogang's phone number and let you recommend yourself."

Lin Daoqiu looked at Wen Jun with a smile on his face.

Wen Jun quickly shrank his head, then shook his head vigorously.

"Brother Qiu was joking, how could Master Bao like us both, and even if he really invited us, how could we go."

Wen Jun is not a fool, he was just joking.

After all, he, Lin Daoqiu's confidant, almost got the word "Lin" tattooed on his head now.

Who in Xiangjiang doesn't know how good the relationship between him and Zheng Danrui is with Lin Daoqiu. They have been with him since before Lin Daoqiu made his fortune.

Unless Bao Shaogang's mind was caught by the door, I'm afraid he would want to dig Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, what's the matter today?"

Lin Daoqiu shook his hand, he didn't have time to chat with these two guys here.

Even if he wanted to talk about it, he would go to the tea restaurant instead of talking nonsense here during his working hours.

"McDonnell has resigned from ATV."

As soon as Wen Jun finished speaking, Lin Daoqiu raised his head in surprise.

About Mai Dangxiong's departure from ATV, he had actually told Lin Daoqiu last year, but Lin Daoqiu held him back because he was going to be involved in the Academy Awards.

However, the preparations for the Academy Awards have not started for so long, and Mai Dangxiong can't wait any longer.

So he took Li Dawei, and the two resigned together and opened a film company called McDonald's Production Co., Ltd.

"This is the script of "Pretty Girl". Mai Dangxiong and the others have already prepared everything, and Brother Qiu just nodded."

As McDonald's opening work, it can be said that he has carefully prepared the drama "Pretty Girl" for a long time.

Not only did they work hard on the script, but they also looked for actors everywhere in order to make the film more suitable for the script.

Lin Biqi and Wen Bixia, the names of these two people appeared in it without any accident.

"No problem, let him shoot with dim sum."

After Lin Daoqiu briefly read the script of "Pretty Girl", he handed the script back to Wen Jun.

This play doesn't cost much, and the actors in it are all young people who are not well-known, so the pay is very cheap.

In addition, this is a documentary-like mode, and there is nothing to spend money on except time.

In fact, Wen Jun came to Lin Daoqiu today not just for this matter.

After all, even if Lin Daoqiu didn't support the movie "Pretty Girl", Wen Jun could have paid for it himself.

And when he came to Lin Daoqiu today, he actually had another matter.

After handing over the good script he had prepared to Lin Daoqiu, Wen Jun's face was full of smiles.

In Wen Jun's company, Wang Jing is filming one drama after another, and he and Zheng Danrui are still working as screenwriters at ATV.

Although relying on Wang Jing also got a lot of money, Wen Jun didn't want the company to rely on Wang Jing alone to make money.

So he found a few people and worked out this movie called "The Palm of the Tathagata".

The eminent monk of the Song Dynasty, Tathagata Tianzun, planted seven plants on the wall in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Cave, gathering the righteousness of the heaven and the earth, and devoted himself to creating nine styles of Tathagata palms.

Tianzun was overwhelmed and troubled, and passed away after passing on the Tathagata palm and huoyun battle clothes to his apprentice, the soul of the ancient Han Dynasty.

From then on, the soul of the ancient Han Dynasty claimed to be Huoyun evil god and went on a killing spree in the Wulin, causing a catastrophe in the Wulin.

Twenty years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the soul of the ancient Han Dynasty has retired for many years. One day he rescued Long Jianfei, a young man who was knocked off the cliff by his master because he fell in love with his master's daughter, from the bottom of the cliff.

The soul of the ancient Han Dynasty passed on what he had learned all his life to Long Jianfei, and asked him to put on the huoyun battle suit to represent the huoyun evil god and come out of the arena again.From then on, the rivers and lakes will not be peaceful again.

The first movie "Tathagata's Palm" was born in 1964. The original work is an adaptation of Shangguan Hong's novel of the same name serialized in "Ming Pao" and Liu Canyang's "Heavenly Buddha's Palm".

Although I don't know what Wen Jun thinks, he wants to adapt and shoot this movie.

But for Lin Daoqiu, as long as the quality of the script is not too bad, he doesn't mind letting Wen Jun make this movie.

After all, throughout the year, it is impossible for every movie to be a masterpiece, and there are always more bad movies than good movies.

"I need a production fee of 150 million for this movie. I have already thought about the actors. Er Dongsheng will play the leading role, and Wan Ziliang and Hui Yinghong will be the supporting roles."

Before Wen Jun came, he had already thought about the actors he wanted to find.

The production cost of this drama is so low, Wen Jun doesn't think that Lin Daoqiu will be interested in this drama.

Wen Jun's guess is not wrong, Lin Daoqiu really has no interest in this drama.

He just read the script of "The Palm of the Tathagata" for a while, and then closed it.

"As I said before, for a movie with a production cost of less than 500 million yuan, just go to Li Maowen."

Lin Daoqiu did not reject Wen Jun, and he believed that as long as Wen Jun went to Li Maowen with the script, the other party would agree.

Leaving aside the relationship between Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui and himself, just looking at the script, there is nothing to make mistakes.

But at this moment, Lin Daoqiu suddenly wanted to notice one thing, that is, just now Wen Jun introduced all the actors, but there was no heroine?

Lin Daoqiu looked at Wen Jun with a puzzled expression on his face.

"You came to me today, besides showing me the script of "The Tathagata God's Palm", is there anything else you want?"

After Lin Daoqiu asked, Wen Jun immediately rubbed his hands and smiled.

"Hey... Brother Qiu really has a sharp eye, and you can't hide anything from you."

Wen Jun came to Lin Daoqiu today. Apart from mentioning "The Palm of the Tathagata", he also wanted to ask someone to be the heroine.

"I would like to invite Miss Guan to play the heroine of this play..."
