new kung fu king

Chapter 392 A chance, a promise, a person
Before creating "Shattering Heaven and Earth" last year, Wang Xiaohu racked his brains to get some connection with the mainland, or find a way to go to the mainland to find out the news. After all, the obstacles that made him worry were all combined with his previous life. It was analyzed out of thin air, and an introduction is needed as to whether it will work.

Wang Xiaohu originally planned to talk to President Gongsun through Run Run Shaw in the first half of this year, but before the end of the year, President Gongsun came to him on his own initiative, and brought the key to the development of Chinese martial arts and kung fu movies. Character - Zhang Xinyan.

From what the other party said just now, Wang Xiaohu captured some clues very sensitively, combined these clues with the memory of his previous life, and sorted out a bunch of useful information for himself.

President Gongsun and Zhang Xinyan came to visit today because they have a ZZ mission, or simply say that the leaders in the country came to test their words. After all, I have shot many kung fu movies over the years of my rebirth, including "Fist of Fury", "Ip Man" "The strong patriotism in the two films aroused the interest of the bigwigs in Zhonghai.

Wang Xiaohu can completely conclude that no matter what he does in Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, or even Hollywood, he will feed back to the mainland through various channels. What he has done in the past few years has been quite satisfactory, and every word and deed is secretly flaunting his identity as a Chinese. Especially in the interviews before the 46th Academy Awards, I believe that what I said will appear in the form of files on the desktops of some relevant people in China.

It can be said that it is these small details that Wang Xiaohu did back and forth that made the mainland more or less aware of his thoughts, and they will definitely conduct a comprehensive investigation on themselves. If they do not meet the standards of the mainland leadership, believe Gongsun The president and Zhang Xinyan would not appear in front of me and talk to me about cooperation in a tone that seemed to be asking but was actually testing.

Wang Xiaohu is not a fool. Although he really wants to break into the mainland market, it does not mean that he will become a pawn in Hong Kong. He has no awareness of joining the party. Enter the domestic investigation environment, form an intuitive understanding of the current situation in the country, and prepare for the next step of work development.

"I won't do anything that is not beneficial!" This meaning is clearly expressed inside and outside the words. President Gongsun, who has been working in ZZ for a long time, can't understand the meaning.

"Comrade Xiao Wang, I don't know what you mean by the commercial value?" President Gongsun pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose, leaned forward, and tried to speak softly, so as not to be overwhelmed by his habitual ZZ's tone caused Wang Xiaohu's displeasure.

Wang Xiaohu saw it in his eyes and smiled in his heart. Negotiating such things mainly depends on the timing. Even if you are willing in your heart, you have to hold it on your face. That's why he behaved so indifferently, which made President Gongsun feel a little nervous. Headache.

Seeing that the other party lowered his posture, Wang Xiaohu said: "It's actually very simple. The script I wrote may be very different from the idea over there. Look, this is a notebook I wrote recently. There are some things that I don't know at all. It was completely denied by that side!"

In fact, what this guy is talking about is ironic. The script he is showing to President Gongsun is the main theme version of "Shaking Earth". A series of positive and effective measures.

And Wang Xiaohu also took this opportunity to deliberately show his own script to President Gongsun. I believe that Comrade Gongsun will definitely remember the script deeply. After all, the script that Wang Xiaohu is creating is not something anyone can see if he wants to. , It's all real money, President Gongsun really looked at it very carefully.

The script is not very long, only a few pages, and the script is more straightforward than reports and novels. It didn't take long for President Gongsun to read the script, and then he frowned. Lost in deep thought, he raised his head and said hesitantly after a long time: "Comrade Xiao Wang, the script seems to be not perfect yet?"

Not perfect?Hey, that's because I only gave a beginning and an end, how can I let you see the most important thing in the middle.

Wang Xiaohu smiled inwardly, anyway, your interest has been aroused now, and now I can calmly ask you for a price.

"This script was created after I came back from participating in the Oscars last year. I originally wanted to shoot a movie reflecting the theme of the mainland, but after much deliberation, I found that it had no commercial value at all, so I threw it here for half a year and never wrote it again. In addition One of the reasons why I stopped writing is that I don’t have a good understanding of the mainland, and I’m afraid that what I’m shooting will be out of touch with reality. I’m really afraid that you’ll laugh at me if I show the semi-finished product to President Gongsun.”

"Comrade Xiao Wang really knows how to joke." President Gongsun said awkwardly: "I feel that the idea of ​​this script creation is very correct, it fits the characteristics of the times, and the description of the mainland is also very real. How about you continue to write?"

"Don't write, don't write!" Wang Xiaohu shook his head and said, "It's very frustrating to shoot this kind of thing. It needs to capture the atmosphere of the times, and it also needs to take into account the appreciation level of Xiangjiang citizens, and also take care of those picky judges in Hollywood. Ladies and gentlemen, there are too many things to worry about, so I only wrote the beginning and the end, leaving the middle blank, and I will write a few random strokes when I feel in the mood."

As Wang Xiaohu talked, he set a trap for President Gongsun. At this time, Zhang Xinyan also began to watch the script seriously. As an insider, Zhang Xinyan admired the script more and more. He expressed the character of the characters in the story so well in just a few words. And the requirements for the scenes are also written in detail, but when I am enjoying watching it, there is nothing in the middle!It is already the end when we look.

One beginning, one ending, vividly highlight the main theme, not only the president Gongsun, but even Zhang Xinyan felt the value of Wang Xiaohu's script at this time, if it is said that the main theme film is also shot, Zhang Xinyan dares to make a decision, even those domestic "red "The director may not have Wang Xiaohu's skills.

At that moment, Zhang Xinyan gave President Gongsun a wink, which meant: I need this script!

President Gongsun frowned slightly, and responded to Zhang Xinyan: Do you want it?

Zhang Xinyan nodded: Yes, yes.

The two made silent eye contact here, and Wang Xiaohu and Run Run Shaw looked at each other and smiled when they saw it, then Wang Xiaohu stood up and stretched his waist and said, "Hey, I've been so busy during the Chinese New Year that I almost wasted my time." , doesn’t Uncle Six want to learn Tai Chi from me, why don’t you go and practice together?”

As soon as this remark came out, President Gongsun and Zhang Xinyan immediately became anxious. Wang Xiaohu indirectly conveyed the "order to evict guests", but his task has not been completed yet.

Run Run Shaw stood up very cooperatively, but quickly shook his head and said, "Boy, you have guests at home, you'd better serve them first, don't rush to learn Taijiquan at once."

"That's right, Comrade Xiao Wang, it's better for us to discuss the issue of the script first. Fighting and killing are not harmonious after all." President Gongsun hurriedly said, feeling grateful to Run Run Shaw in his heart, he was still getting old Good people do things reliably.

"Hiss~~" Wang Xiaohu rubbed his chin, and said a little embarrassed: "How about this, if you are really interested in this script, you can take it back and discuss it together, after all, cooperation is not a trivial matter."

"What's the point of this?"

President Gongsun was eager to take the script back for discussion. After hearing this, he hurriedly stood up and said to Wang Xiaohu: "Then, Xiao Zhang and I will not bother you to learn Kung Fu. We will finish the discussion as soon as possible after we go back."

"No!" Wang Xiaohu watched the two leave with a smile, then turned to Run Run Shaw and said, "Uncle Six, what do you think?"

"How do you think about it?" Run Run Shaw asked.

"Hey, Sixth Uncle, sometimes you pretend to be too fake!" Wang Xiaohu rolled his eyes and said, "If we want to cooperate with Zuo P, will it cause some dissatisfaction from the British Hong Kong government?"

"It depends on the scale of your cooperation!" Run Run Shaw said very cautiously: "If it is just a cooperation and the film produced is quite satisfactory, there should be no big problem, not to mention that the British government has expressed to the mainland the unconditional return of Hong Kong last year. Sincerity, as long as it is not a sensitive political subject, the British Hong Kong government will turn a blind eye to it."

Only then did Wang Xiaohu nod his head, "Uncle Six, I want to cooperate with them."

"Haha, I've seen it a long time ago, otherwise I wouldn't have agreed to introduce me this time." Run Run Shaw laughed and said, "But you're good enough, kid, to play around with two representatives from the Mainland. Believe in that You have already prepared the script, right?"

"Of course it was prepared a long time ago." Wang Xiaohu took out the remaining script from the drawer with a smile, handed it to Run Run Shaw and said, "It's just that doing things in the Mainland requires a lot of complicated procedures, and sometimes it makes people very uncomfortable. I would like to take this opportunity to convey my cooperation sincerity and request to the other side, if I want to shoot "Shattering Earth", I don't like others to point fingers, and I don't want the filming process to be affected by the slightest outside influence."

"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult." After reading the script, Run Run Shaw shook his head and said, "If you really want to do this, your film will lose the chance to be released in Hong Kong, Southeast Asia and Hollywood. I don't understand. , what are you trying to do?"

"What are you looking for?" Wang Xiaohu sighed, looked at Run Run Shaw and said with a smile, "I only want an opportunity, a promise, and a person!"

"A chance? A promise? A person?" Run Run Shaw didn't understand at all. He frowned and said, "For these three ones, don't you feel that you have sacrificed too much?"

The corners of Wang Xiaohu's mouth curled up, revealing a mysterious smile: "Uncle Six, people have to take a long-term view, so that they won't stick to the surface."
