Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 995 Go to "Plan A"

The task of checking for deficiencies and making up for omissions was not done, because there is really nothing particularly bad about the film "Wing Chun".

But on the contrary, there is nothing too bright about this drama.

For Lin Daoqiu, this is an old-fashioned kung fu comedy.

If it was placed three years ago, it might have gotten a very good box office.

But at this time, the trend of action movies is no longer in the old style of kung fu comedy.

From the success of "Best Partner", it can be seen that what everyone wants to watch is no longer the same movie as before.

But Lin Daoqiu did not tell Chen Xunqi directly, he felt that Chen Xunqi should be able to feel it after the release of "Wing Chun".

"Mr. Lin, what do you think of the filming of this movie? Is there anything that needs to be reshot or improved?"

Chen Xunqi still didn't know what Lin Daoqiu was thinking at this time. After reading it, he looked at Lin Daoqiu nervously and asked.

If there is a need for improvement or reshoots, ten days should still be enough, as long as there are not many places, it should be fine.

"This movie is not bad, and I don't see anything that needs improvement for the time being."

Lin Daoqiu said it very tactfully.

Chen Xunqi was quite happy after hearing this, but Li Yingjiu next to him frowned when he heard what Lin Daoqiu said.

Lin Daoqiu neither boasted nor said what needs to be changed in "Wing Chun".

Li Ying felt that the reason why the other party said this was probably because the play "Wing Chun" did not surprise Lin Daoqiu.

After the screening, Chen Xunqi and Lin Daoqiu chatted briefly, and then left.

Li Yuanba left on his own, and Chen Xunqi and Li Ying went all the way.

After getting in the car, Chen Xunqi started the car, Li Ying suddenly said.

"I'm afraid Mr. Lin...is not too optimistic about the movie "Wing Chun"."

Chen Xunqi, who was about to drive, stopped immediately when he heard what Li Ying said, and then turned his head to look at Li Yingjiu.

"Why do you say that? Didn't Mr. Lin just say that this movie is not bad?"

Chen Xunqi didn't understand why Li Yingjiu had such an idea.

Li Ying shook his head.

"Mr. Lin probably means that there is nothing outstanding about this drama, so there is no need to change it."

Chen Xunqi recalled what Lin Daoqiu said before, his original good mood suddenly became depressed.

If even Lin Daoqiu is not optimistic about this movie, Chen Xunqi doesn't know how much box office "Wing Chun" will get.

"But you can rest assured. I can feel that Mr. Lin is very optimistic about you. Even if "Wing Chun" doesn't get a good box office this time, Mr. Lin will continue to invest in you."

For this point, Li Ying is very confident.

Although he didn't know why Lin Daoqiu fell in love with Chen Xunqi and invested in making movies for him.

But after such cooperation, Li Ying felt that Chen Xunqi was indeed a young man with ideas and execution ability.

If he doesn't become a director and concentrates on being an actor, he will definitely achieve a lot of success.

"The victory or defeat of "Wing Chun" this time will be related to the Spring Festival stalls of Xiangjiang Cinemas. If the loss is too ugly, do you think I still have the face to stay in New Oriental?"

Chen Xunqi is actually a very proud person. If the movies he makes don't make money, he will never stay in New Oriental.

"The outcome is uncertain now, I just hope that the loss will not be too ugly."

This is Li Yingjiu's true thoughts at this moment.

…………

On the sixth day of the release of "Best Partner", it has come to New Year's Eve in 1984.

At this time, the box office of "Best Partner" has broken through the 2000 million mark, reaching 60 million.

On the other side, "Plan A", after four days of being sold out, finally dropped to 300 million on the fifth day, with a cumulative box office of 580 million.

If the box office trend continues like this, everyone feels that the two dramas "Best Partner" and "Plan A" have already been divided.

Now it depends on how much "Best Partner" can win in the end, and whether "Best Partner" can break through the box office mark of 4000 million.

The day before New Year's Eve, Brigitte Lin had already returned to Baodao to celebrate the New Year.

She was thinking of Lin Daoqiu going back with her, but what happened before made Brigitte Lin afraid to say this anymore.

Zhong Chuhong was going home to spend the New Year with her family, and Guan Zhilin also flew to the United States a few days earlier.

Lin Daoqiu at this time can be said to be alone.

According to the experience of previous years, Lin Daoqiu should buy a ticket to Neon on this day, and fly to Neon to go to Chunzi.

But this year, because Lin Daoqiu is very fancy about the victory or defeat of this Spring Festival stall, he stayed in Xiangjiang for the New Year.

After the meeting in the morning, Lin Daoqiu asked everyone to get off work early.

"Mr. Lin... how about you come to my house for a New Year's Eve dinner?"

Fang Jinsheng was also given a seven-day leave by Lin Daoqiu, but he knew that Lin Daoqiu had no one to accompany him, so he was a little worried.

"I'm not so miserable. Go back and spend your Spring Festival well. See you in seven days."

Lin Daoqiu patted Fang Jinsheng's shoulder with a smile.

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Fang Jinsheng could only nod his head.

However, if Lin Daoqiu had any urgent matters, he only needed to make a phone call, and Fang Jinsheng would rush to his side immediately.

After all, Xiangjiang is not a big place, and it doesn't take too long to drive.

Leaving New Oriental and sitting in a Rolls-Royce, where should we go now?
Asking the driver to turn around on the street, Lin Daoqiu couldn't help but want to go home to get his passport, and then fly to Neon.

But in the end, after going around in a circle, Lin Daoqiu suddenly saw a theater on the side of the road.

He asked the driver to stop, and then prepared to get out of the car and line up at the entrance of the theater to buy tickets.

Lin Daoqiu had watched the movie "Best Partner" before, but he felt bored and wanted to go in and watch a movie to pass the time.

But what Lin Daoqiu didn't expect was that this was not a theater under Xiangjiang Cinemas, but a theater of Baocheng Cinemas.

The movie shown here is naturally not "Best Partner", but "Plan A".

"Mr. Lin, "Plan A" is showing here, why don't we change to a theater."

The bodyguard in the passenger seat whispered a reminder.

Lin Daoqiu just wanted to nod, but then he thought about it, he watched "Project A" starring Jackie Chan in his last life.

In this life, Sammo Hung played the leading role, and the plot inside must have changed. For Lin Daoqiu, this is a brand new movie.

If that's the case, what reason does he have for not watching it?

"Watch "Plan A" today and buy tickets."

Lin Daoqiu ordered.

Since Lin Daoqiu ordered the bodyguard to obey, he got out of the car and waited in line for half an hour before buying the ticket.
