Dreams of the Fragrant River

On the eve of this year's Hong Kong Film Awards, "Notes on Tomb Raiders" happened to be serialized until the protagonist and others entered the tomb of King Lu Shang. The suspenseful and wonderful stories made readers hooked.

After the 1970s, Hong Kong's best-selling novels are nothing more than two types, one is martial arts novels represented by Jin Yong, and the other is romance novels represented by Yi Shu.

In addition to these two kinds of novels, Ni Box's science fiction is a special case, so after Jin Yong's writing and Yi Shu's entry into politics, the Hong Kong fiction industry is almost dominated by Ni Box's family. Even Wen Ruian, who came to Hong Kong from Taiwan, is far less influential in Hong Kong than Ni Frame, and it can be said that it is completely lower.

Ni frame has been able to become popular for more than 20 consecutive years, relying on only two points, never procrastinating diligence and unique style.

But now, Ni Jiao has obviously gone downhill, because his sci-fi is famous for adventure and suspense. As a result, at the end of each story, the mystery revealed is: This guy is an alien!

No matter what the bizarre foreshadowing and suspense in the front, an alien can explain all the doubts at the end, and now the readers are already tired of seeing it.

Like the previous "Xun Qin Ji", "The Tomb Raiders" is the main reason why it is sought after by readers because it is different from other novels of the same period. Although "Looking for Qin" travels through it, it still does not break away from the category of martial arts, while "Notes on Tomb Raiders" completely jumps out of the martial arts stereotype. Like Ni Frame's "Wesley", the main focus is suspense and adventure.

Hong Kong people have always been superstitious, and the box office of ghost zombie movies has always been higher than that of sci-fi movies. The gold-touching tomb robbing and female ghost zombies described in "The Tomb Raiders" are obviously more suitable for Hong Kong readers than the sci-fi of "Wesleyan".

When "Notes of Tomb Raiders" was first serialized, some people were still reading it through newspapers from work units, colleagues, and friends. These people were not die-hard fans of Kang Jianfei. Most of them were influenced by people around them when they read "Notes of Tomb Raiders".

And when the story developed to the plot of King Lu Shang's tomb, these people finally couldn't wait. In order to be able to see the serialized content of the day at the first time, they went to buy such a copy of "Oriental Daily".

...

In order to facilitate filming, Lin Xue now rents an apartment in the residential area of ​​Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City. He is now a contracted actor of the Oriental Entertainment Company, but unfortunately he can only play some minor supporting roles, and he is not even qualified to buy a house at a low price in the residential area of ​​the film and television city.

Going downstairs to the newsstand, Lin Xue shouted, "Boss, a copy of Oriental Daily."

"Sold out." The old man who sold the newspaper looked at Ming Pao without looking up.

Wang Jing came out of the apartment building opposite with a bag, and said to the newsstand owner with a smile, "Abo, where is my newspaper?"

"Take it yourself." The old man pointed to the small bench next to him.

Wang Jing bent down and picked up the two newspapers and left. Lin Xue saw the words "Oriental Daily" on the header.

"Hey, why don't you sell me any newspapers? Didn't Wang Jing take one?" Lin Xue said a little unhappily.

The old man raised his head and glanced at Lin Xue: "His copy has been ordered a long time ago. I want to see it again tomorrow. I will buy 50 more copies, and more and more people have bought the Oriental Daily in the past two days."

Lin Xue left the newsstand dejectedly. He was busy running around before, and he had only heard that "Notes on the Tomb Raiders" was very good, but he had never seen it. As a result, the agent called early in the morning and said that he wanted him to become familiar with "Tomb Notes" as soon as possible, and then go to the special effects company to see Kang Jianfei.

An actor of Lin Xue's level was not valued by the company at all, and his manager only called him when he needed a good actor. As for the packaging, publicity, and hype, it had nothing to do with a third-rate actor like him. The treatment of first-line artists.

Lin Xue still remembered what the agent said on the phone ten minutes ago: "Fat boy, this time Mr. Kang wants to see you by name, you have to seize the opportunity. I heard that Mr. Kang's new film is related to "Tomb Notes", it may be Looking for you to play an important supporting role, you'd better familiarize yourself with this novel before you go to see Mr. Kang..."

The time Kang Jianfei summoned was in the afternoon. Lin Xue went back to find the owner of the newsstand, but as a result, all the old newspapers were bought. He remembered that in the crew of the past few days, there were several good actors who were watching "The Tomb Raiders", maybe he could talk to them.

He trotted all the way to the TV drama team on Antique Street in the Studio City, and the assistant director who knew Lin Xue saw him coming and immediately waved to him: "Fat boy, you're here just in time, I have a role that lacks actors, you come to support me. ."

Lin Xue said with a short stature and apologetic smile: "Director Zhang, you ordered."

"What you want to play is the sidekick of the villain, the second generation ancestor. The second generation of ancestors flirted with the girl and was met by the male protagonist. When you fight, you will go there... When you figure it out, go to put on makeup and change clothes." The assistant director suddenly turned his head and shouted. , "Hey, don't put that stall there, it's for cameras!"

Lin Xue was put on a hair cap in a confused way, then changed into the clothes of a thug, and sat on the side waiting for the hair to fall. There was a man sitting on the steps next to him, also wearing a coarse cloth and ancient costume. It seemed that he should be playing a role like a passerby. Lin Xue vaguely remembered that this man was called Cheng Jiaquan, and the two played dead bodies together.

"Aquan, what about "Notes on Tomb Raiders"?" Lin Xue glanced at the newspaper in the other's hand.

Cheng Jiaquan raised his head when he heard the sound, also recognized Lin Xue, and said in surprise, "Didn't you sign a long-term contract with a brokerage company, fat boy, why are you here again?"

"I was caught by Director Zhang for a scene," Lin Xue explained briefly, and asked, "Aquan, is Tomb Raiders any good? A lot of people are reading this novel recently."

Cheng Jiaquan got excited when he mentioned the novel: "Why isn't it good-looking? It's so **** good. After reading this novel, I realized that digging a grave is called a douchebag, touching gold, a zombie is called a zongzi, and I'm afraid of a black donkey's hoof, just one word: specialized!"

"What was said inside?" Lin Xue asked curiously.

"I'm telling you..."

Cheng Jiaquan had just started talking when the assistant director shouted, "Aquan, fat boy, you two come here!"

When the lunch box was delivered at noon, Lin Xuecai finally had a chance to talk to Cheng Jiaquan again: "Aquan, have you read the Oriental Daily? I want to read the Tomb Raiders from the beginning."

"Keep them all at my house." Cheng Jiaquan said.

"I'll give you 100 yuan, how about you sell it to me?" Lin Xue said.

Cheng Jiaquan reached out and touched Lin Xue's forehead: "You don't have a fever, right?"

"Sell it or not, let me know." Lin Xue patted his hand away.

Cheng Jiaquan smiled and said, "Sell it, a fool won't sell it, wait until I bring the crew to you tomorrow."

"I will soon." Lin Xue said.

Cheng Jiaquan shook his head again and again: "I still have a play in the afternoon."

"If it can't be delayed, go and come back quickly." Lin Xue said anxiously.

Cheng Jiaquan laughed and said, "If you have a problem, tell me honestly, or I won't sell you the newspaper."

Lin Xue had no choice but to lean into his ear and say, "I'm going to see Mr. Kang in the afternoon. The agent told me to familiarize myself with Tomb Raiders Notes. You know...don't tell anyone about this kind of thing."

Cheng Jiaquan came over in an instant: "Okay, you boy... ah no, fat brother, if you become prosperous in the future, don't forget my little brother."

"No problem," Lin Xue said, patting her chest, "Look at the newspaper..."

Cheng Jiaquan threw the box lunch: "Let's go, I'll go back and get it right away."

It took Lin Xue two hours to read the contents of the serialized novel. When he ran to see Kang Jianfei, the news that Kang Jianfei was going to film "Notes on Tomb Raiders" had already spread throughout a certain crew.

After seeing Kang Jianfei, Lin Xue honestly stood there and waited for her decision, only to hear Kang Jianfei ask, "Have you read all the novels?"

Lin Xue nodded heavily: "I have seen it, I follow it every day."

Kang Jianfei looked at his body shape and said, "You play that fat man, eat more during this time. I hope that when the movie starts, your weight will increase by at least 20 pounds."

"Notes on Tomb Raiders" is serialized here, and the importance of the role of Fatty Wang has not yet been reflected, so Lin Xue does not know that he is the second male lead of this series of films, and only regards him as a male supporting role with a relatively heavy role.

However, Lin Xue was very satisfied with this. Kang Jianfei's personal summoning was enough to show that this role was very important. He nodded happily and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Kang, I promise to gain 20 pounds!"

"That's it, I'll ask you to give you the script in a few days." Kang Jianfei said with a wave of his hand.

Lin Xue understood that Kang Jianfei was chasing people, so he said goodbye and left.

Kang Jianfei stayed in the model warehouse for a while before returning to his office. Although the special effects model has not been completed, Kang Jianfei has nothing to do, and the rest will naturally be completed.

What Kang Jianfei will do next is to build a model of the interior of the tomb in the studio. This is a big project and will take at least a month or two.

Now the studio is being cleaned up and some materials have been shipped in. After Kang Jianfei prepares for the awards ceremony, he officially starts to organize and build.

After the construction of the tomb model was on track, Kang Jianfei had to go to the mainland to select a site for shooting. Although the shooting of the interior of the tomb could depend on the setting, the exterior scene had to be shot on the spot to get the best effect.

After returning to the office, Kang Jianfei began to look at the set design of the studio. This thing was made by the set designer of DreamWorks. Kang Jianfei looked at it for a long time and couldn't understand it.

When it was about to get off work, Li Meifeng came in with the documents to report on the work, and Kang Jianfei's itinerary for the past few days~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Kang Jianfei didn't like unnecessary entertainment. It is more important to attend the Academy Awards ceremony every day.

When Li Meifeng left, she hesitated for a moment, then turned around and said, "Brother Fei, Miss Zhou Huimin invited you to dinner and said that she thanked you for writing songs for her."

"Zhou Huimin?" Kang Jianfei couldn't help smiling when he heard the name, and said, "Let her wait for me at home tomorrow, and I'll drive to pick her up."

Li Meifeng felt jealous when she heard this, she knew that her boss and lover was going to bother again.

Kang Jianfei walked over and patted Li Meifeng's buttocks: "You little goblin, you can't feed you even if you secretly eat it every day, what kind of vinegar is there to eat here? Get down!"

"Bad man!" Li Meifeng scolded with a blushing smile, then leaned on the desk obediently, her beautiful buttocks raised high and tempting, swaying from side to side waiting for the favor of the man.

Just when the two were upside down, several newspapers in Hong Kong received news that Kang Jianfei's new film had been confirmed, and the most popular novel "The Tomb Raiders" was going to be put on the big screen. r1152()
