Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 929

"Thank you Mr. Lin, I will definitely seize this opportunity."

Li Yuanba was very respectful to Lin Daoqiu, and he always spoke softly.

After all, a few minutes ago, he originally thought about leaving Xiangjiang and returning to the country of America.

But at this time, Lin Daoqiu who appeared in front of him can be said to be a man who can change the trajectory of his life.

It is not an exaggeration to say that as long as Lin Daoqiu has his eyes on an actor, there is no one who cannot become popular.

As long as he treats himself a little better, Li Yuanba feels that one day he can become a top martial arts star like Jackie Chan.

In fact, Lin Daoqiu didn't like Li Yuanba.

One is because, the reason why he is incomparable with Jackie Chan is because he lacks the characteristics of Jackie Chan, such as a sense of joy.

In terms of body, Lin Daoqiu can't say who is better than whom, but in the film industry, it doesn't mean whoever is better in kung fu can become a top kung fu star.

You must know that besides good skills, you must have other characteristics. Li Yuanba obviously cannot compare with Jackie Chan in this regard.

If it wasn't for this, Lin Daoqiu would have included him long ago, so how could he miss such an excellent actor.

After all, good kung fu stars are a scarce resource. At this moment, whoever can have more kung fu stars can get more box office revenue.

After dealing with Li Yuanba's matter, Lin Daoqiu immediately asked He Guanchang out.

And when He Guanchang received a call from Lin Daoqiu asking him to meet again, he himself felt very strange.

"Mr. Lin asked me to meet. Could it be that he has already found an actor comparable to Jackie Chan?"

Although He Guanchang said this, it seemed more like he was joking with Lin Daoqiu, and the tone of his speech sounded very casual.

But what He Guanchang never expected was that Lin Daoqiu on the other end of the phone gave him an ambiguous answer.

"Mr. He will know when the time comes."

Lin Daoqiu's answer immediately aroused He Guanchang's interest.

You must know that he never thought before that Lin Daoqiu would really agree to his request and help them find an actor who can compete with Jackie Chan.

If he can do it, wouldn't it be better for this person to stay in New Oriental than to give it to Jiahe.

Although he was full of doubts, He Guanchang immediately agreed to meet Lin Daoqiu.

When he arrived at the appointed teahouse, He Guanchang found out that there was only Lin Daoqiu here, and there was no other person there.

Originally, He Guanchang thought that he would be able to meet the new Jackie Chan after he came in, but unfortunately he didn't get his wish.

"Mr. He, what are you looking for?"

Lin Daoqiu noticed that as soon as He Guanchang entered the door, he began to look around, as if he was looking for something.

"I'm looking for a surprise from Mr. Lin."

He Guanchang smiled and explained, then walked to the chair and sat down.

Hearing what He Guanchang said, Lin Daoqiu just smiled, but he didn't explain it, which made He Guanchang even more curious.

Judging by Lin Daoqiu's appearance, maybe he will really get some surprises here today.

"Don't look for Mr. He. I can tell you that I have indeed found someone who meets your requirements."

He Guanchang's eyes widened immediately upon hearing Lin Daoqiu's words.

"Mr. Lin is not joking, is he? Have you really found an actor who can rival Jackie Chan?"

He Guanchang thinks he has a good understanding of Xiangjiang's film circle, but in his opinion, if he looks around inside, he probably won't be able to find an actor who can rival Jackie Chan.

If there was such a thing, Jiahe would have already made a move, so how could it be possible to leave it to Lin Daoqiu.

"I believe Mr. He should know the person I'm talking about."

Lin Daoqiu's words made He Guanchang even more confused. He even said that he knew that person himself?This is really a bit unbelievable.

However, He Guanchang was not in a hurry to refute, but wanted to hear who Lin Daoqiu was talking about.

"The movie "Dragon Ninja", if I remember correctly, should have been screened at Baojia Cinemas last year."

When Lin Daoqiu mentioned the movie "Dragon Ninja", He Guanchang didn't react for a while.

Seeing He Guanchang's puzzled expression, Lin Daoqiu explained to him.

"It's a movie invested and shot by Wu Siyuan. It's a collaboration with Neon. The box office took nearly 800 million. Does Mr. He have any impression?"

Lin Daoqiu had already made it so clear, if He Guanchang didn't remember it yet, then he didn't have a good idea.

And when Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, He Guanchang immediately thought of this play.

"Mr. Lin is not talking about the big guy inside, is he?"

He Guanchang vaguely remembered that the male protagonist in "Dragon Ninja" was a big guy with a strong physique, and the action scenes were well shot.

It's a pity that they already had Jackie Chan back then, so they never thought about taking Li Yuanba into their pocket.

And the other party is from Wu Siyuan, they had already poached Jackie Chan from Wu Siyuan before, if they poach Li Yuanba again, it would be a bit too much.

Wu Siyuan can be considered a very famous person in Xiangjiang's film circle, if he is offended to death, it will not do Jiahe any good.

"Mr. He is right, what I'm talking about is Li Yuanba, the leading actor of "Dragon Ninja"."

Lin Daoqiu nodded.

"Mr. Lin thinks he can reach the height of Jackie Chan?"

He Guanchang was very skeptical about this. The first thing he considered was not the issue of Li Yuanba and Wu Siyuan, but that Li Yuanba might not be able to reach Jackie Chan's height.

"Li Yuanba's first film earned nearly 800 million at the box office. How much did Aaron earn in his first film?"

Lin Daoqiu smiled and asked He Guanchang back.

Jackie Chan's first starring movie "New Fist of Fury" won a box office of 1976 in 45, ranking 60th at the annual box office.

At that time, "Half a Catty" won the No.1 box office, but it won a box office score of 850 million.

At that time, the box office revenue of "New Fist of Fury" was only a fraction of the opponent's.

Originally, He Guanchang didn't pay much attention to Li Yuanba, but after Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, He Guanchang suddenly felt that Li Yuanba seemed to be really a treasure.

"I heard that he and Wu Siyuan had fallen out before, and Wu Siyuan even issued a banning order for this, asking the film company and theaters not to cooperate with Li Yuanba."

If Jiahe insists on taking Li Yuanba into his bag this time, then he will definitely be in the same boat as Wu Siyuan again.
