new kung fu king

Chapter 308
Run Run Shaw cunningly played tricks, dealing with Wang Xiaohu for half a year, let him know that Wang Xiaohu is a clever young man, otherwise, he might be deceived in a daze, so he said with a smile: "Look at the script If the quality is good, then of course there will be no problem, not only will I call all the actors back for you, but I will also devote three months to cooperating with you in filming TV dramas."

"Very good, a gentleman." Wang Xiaohu nodded and said.

"Hurry up!" Run Run Shaw finished speaking and added: "Remember, it's a well-received film, if it doesn't meet these two requirements, all previous assumptions will be invalidated!"

"Hmph, I know Uncle Liu is not easy to fool with this piece of old ginger." Wang Xiaohu stood up and curled his lips and said, "Well, although Xiehe Company has a small workshop, it also follows the high-quality line like Uncle Liu. Every movie of Uncle Liu is Don't they all end with: Shaw's product, it's the best product, I won't destroy Liu Shu's famous brand."

Hearing the words, Run Run Shaw regained his energy immediately, leaned forward and asked, "It seems that you have already prepared a draft, come and listen to it."

"Yeah, I've had it for a long time. I thought I'd finish it later, but now that Uncle Six is ​​in a hurry, I have to take it out to make a fool of myself!" Wang Xiaohu unceremoniously picked up the pen from Run Run Shaw's desk, playing with it. There were two typos written on the paper, Run Run Shaw stretched his neck to look, "God type?"

"That's right, God's fight!" Wang Xiaohu nodded vigorously and said, "It's God's fight!"

"This is the title of the film, you are not prevarication, what do you mean?" Run Run Shaw frowned and asked.

"To put it absurdly, it means inviting God to the upper body. To put it simply, it is invulnerable. To be scientific, it is spiritual suggestion. According to me, it is fooling." The word fooling has been demonized by Uncle Benshan in his previous life. Shaw pondered for a long time before he understood.

In Wang Xiaohu's memory, "God Strikes" is Liu Jialiang's first directorial debut at Shaw Brothers. The film is starring Wang Yu and Lin Zhenqi, and guest starred by Ti Lung, Chen Guantai, Ren Dahua and others. The story is sugar-coated, but the content is reproduced in the eight-character formula of "exploiting martial arts and breaking superstition".

The story narrates that there is a pair of doctors and apprentices who travel the rivers and lakes. They claim to have the miraculous power of "God Fighting". They can use the upper body of the gods to communicate with Yin and Yang.Suddenly one day the master Jiuxian Li Bai took the upper body and delayed the time for people to invite the gods. The young apprentice who was not yet skilled in the art of copying the guy was hard on the top.Unfortunately, when the little apprentice was going back to the inn to meet his master, he found that his master had already been taken away by the public security team, and the other party wanted to ask him for questioning!At this time, the little apprentice was like a frightened bird. He was so frightened that he ran away, thinking that without the master, he would have to make his way through the rivers and lakes. Let me see how I can go to the end of the world...

After Wang Xiaohu told the story to Run Run Shaw, Run Run Shaw immediately shook his head and objected: "No, isn't this advocating feudal superstition? Shaw Brothers can't make this kind of film!"

"Sixth Uncle, can you wait until I finish talking before shooting dead?" Wang Xiaohu rolled his eyes, thinking that sometimes Run Run Shaw really puts too much emphasis on the golden signature of Shaw Brothers.However, he still said patiently: "Although "Shen Da" uses the boxer gods as a gimmick to make a call, it does not intend to pretend to be a ghost to play fantasy martial arts. Instead, it wants to get rid of superstition and promote martial arts."

"how to say?"

Wang Xiaohu shook his hands and said, "I can't talk to you about this, so how about you call Liu Jialiang here, call that kid Wang Yu here, and call Lin Zhenqi here too."

"Starring role?" Run Run Shaw was still confused.

"Liu Jialiang is the director, Wang Yu and Lin Zhenqi are the leading actors, well, Ti Lung, Chen Guantai, Shi Zhongtian, Tian Qing, and Ren Dahua are all called together, so as to save trouble." Clearly, it’s no wonder that when researching kung fu comedy films, various materials show that “Shen Da” was the first film that proposed the concept of kung fu comedy in the 70s. Naturally, the memory is deep.

Not to mention, Shaw Brothers has a lot of actors, unlike when I have to make comparisons between the characters around me and the original actors every time I shoot a film, my hair falls out every time I worry about it.Now that I have a good relationship with Shaw Brothers, it is convenient for me to choose actors in the next step.

"Liu Jialiang as the director? Wang Yu as the starring role?" Run Run Shaw frowned tightly when he heard the words, then shook his head and said, "No, Liu Jialiang is still a martial arts instructor and has no qualifications as a director. Wang Yu is still a newcomer, so he may not be called upon to act as the leading role rashly. Li, as for who is Lin Zhenqi you're talking about?"

"Isn't she in Shaw Brothers?" Now it was Wang Xiaohu's turn to be dumbfounded.

"I can name 90% of Shaw's employees. I have no impression of the female employee you mentioned." Run Run Shaw said with certainty.

And people you Shaw can't find?Strange! "You look back and look for it."

"That's not okay, the cast and crew you mentioned are all newcomers, I'm worried about the quality of the box office!" Run Run Shaw shook his head like a rattle, his old stubborn character made Wang Xiaohu's teeth ache.

"Okay, okay, Sixth Uncle, you don't want to shoot, right? If you don't want to shoot, I can do it!" Wang Xiaohu sighed helplessly: "Let's talk about it first, if the box office is popular, don't regret it! Anyway, Wang Yu is a newcomer, you Simply lend him to me for a few days, and return it to you after filming!"

The strong confidence shown by Wang Xiaohu made Run Run Shaw hesitate again. He squinted his eyes and stared at Wang Xiaohu for a long time, wondering if this kid is serious?Reminiscent of "The Righteous Hero" and "Ip Man" he filmed back then, and even Jackie Chan and Yuen Biao, who are now highly praised, which one is not a newcomer, but they are still booming in a mess.

Run Run Shaw didn't know anyone well. Yuan Heping and his son had worked in Shaw Brothers before. They were not good-looking when they were in Shaw Brothers. Yuan Xiaotian led his two sons to work hard by virtue of his status in the circle, but he didn't make any progress in Shaw Brothers. , but as soon as he ran to Xiehe, it would be amazing!A "Serpentine" is now earning a lot of money at the box office ("The Prodigal Boy" drove the box office of "Snake".)
"You let me think about it again!" Run Run Shaw propped his forehead, he seemed to have a headache, hesitant, he is now wandering, if it is really filmed, it will smash the Shaw's signboard if it hits the street, but if it is really Let Wang Xiaohu shoot it, what if it becomes popular?Didn't he hand over Liu Jialiang and Wang Yu?
Run Run Shaw has already lost a Bruce Lee, and Wang Xiaohu is a director who favors newcomers to become famous in the circle, he hesitated, he lingered, and finally slapped the table cruelly: "Okay, Uncle Six will be this training Now, you can use whoever you say!"

"Haha, this is the Sixth Uncle. Although it's good to stick to the rules, an enterprising spirit is also necessary!" Wang Xiaohu patted Run Run Shaw's flattery, but his taste changed when he heard Run Run Shaw's ears: "You kid doesn't hurt anyone. The one with dirty words, if it was someone else, I would have kicked him long ago."

In fact, Run Run Shaw himself knows that Wang Xiaohu's evaluation is correct. Since Zou Wenhuai jumped out of Shaw Brothers, the Shaw Group's reputation in the film industry has been getting lower and lower day by day. Sooner or later, he will be depressed in the film industry, so Run Run Shaw's main focus now is to develop the TVB wireless TV business, adopting the tactics of "lose the east, gain the mulberry" to maintain Shaw's foundation.

Today, being stimulated by Wang Xiaohu, Run Run Shaw finally made up his mind to use a new director to find new artists, but he was still confused in his heart. In the end, he comforted himself and said: Anyway, there is a brat like Wang Xiaohu, and I, Shaw Brothers, don’t want it. If he was an old face, how could he, an upstart, not begrudge his own brand?Thinking about it this way, Run Run Shaw let go instead, let's do whatever he wants!

"Sixth Uncle, it's getting late. The crew has been waiting on the set for a long time. Shall we call Liu Jialiang back first and finish filming today's scene, so I can talk to him about "God Strike" by the way?" motion design requirements."

Run Run Shaw raised his head and made a weird expression, pointed his finger at his head and said: "After going around half a circle, you still haven't forgotten your "Jing Fu Men", well, it seems that it won't do you any favors." , you kid won't help Uncle Six happily."

"Hey, look at what you said, Uncle Six, Xiaohu is that kind of person." Wang Xiaohu said with a sneer.

"Why not?" Run Run Shaw picked up the phone and called the crew of "The Thorn Horse". After a long time, he hung up the phone with a slightly embarrassed face, sighed and said, "Boy, for you, I'm going with Zhang Che this time." It's not pleasant."

Zhang Che is one of Shaw Brothers' four major directors, and he is also an important person who brought Shaw Brothers' martial arts films to the top. Wang Xiaohu can imagine with his toes how difficult it is to borrow someone from Zhang Che, but Zhang Che's level in the past few years It's a big mistake, under the combination of myself and Bruce Lee's dragon and tiger, Zhang Che's style of movies gradually lost the market, but it's a pity that Wu Yusen is still hiding under his hands!

Thinking of Wu Yusen, Wang Xiaohu thought of "Blood Heroes", "The True Colors of a Hero", "Across the World" and "Handy Detective", and even more "Mission: Impossible 2", "Ultimate Target" and "Face Changing" ", he is the only Hong Kong director who is recognized by Hollywood. He is often called a "master of aesthetics of violence". The relationship between the times, a kind of confusion about the real society, but it is best to be positive. He is good at expressing emotions with objects, and expressing emotions in objects, such as the "white dove" and "church" that often appear in his movies are beautiful symbols.

"Hey, the Shao family is full of talents, but it's a pity that the sixth uncle guards Baoshan but has no way out!" Wang Xiaohu said with emotion.
