Hong Kong Stubborn

Early the next morning, Luo Junyan rushed to the set, surrounded Wang Tianlin and poured tea.

Wang Tianlin stared at the preparations before shooting, and accepted it calmly. After filling 3 cups of fat-reducing tea, he said, "A Jun, don't be busy. Seeing that your pretty boy is very diligent, I'll just tell you directly. Uncle Lin, I will only film for TVB."

Luo Junyan said: "Uncle Tianlin, you usually take care of me on the set, and there are so many things you teach me. I am willing to ask you to drink tea every day. There is one thing to say about your idea. I want to ask you. Is it risky for me to invest in filming myself?"

Wang Tianlin glanced at him and said: "Which one says you can make a movie, you can just let him eat shit. You should make some money when you make a record. Don't be fooled into being a pauper without covering your heat."

Luo Junyan thanked him sincerely: "Thank you, Uncle Tianlin for your advice."

Luo Junyan walked out of the indoor shooting scene depressed, just in time to ran into Wang Jing coming from outside. Wang Jing is the son of Wang Tianlin. He has a relatively familiar personality, and is more intimate with Luo Junyan.

Wang Jing started to work as a screenwriter assistant at TVB last year, and also participated in the screenwriting of "Legend of Chu Liuxiang". Xiangjiang's TV series are all broadcast and filmed. It is often necessary for the screenwriter to temporarily change the script, and often urges it to be delivered by Wang Jing every time. This kind of newcomer screenwriter is called FeiZhiZi in the circle, low status and very hard work.

Luo Junyan took the initiative to greet him: "Brother Xiang, morning."

Wang Jing showed a signature smile, came over and hooked his shoulders to him, and said, "Morning, A Jun. Your record is very popular, right?"

Luo Junyan smiled and said, "I really made a profit. Don't rush back at noon. I will ask you to eat roast goose."

Wang Jing said: "How can you have such a good life? I just sent the script, so I have to hurry back and start work."

Luo Junyan said: "Then go to the door of the studio, I will pack it and take it back for you. In the evening, you can take it home and give it to Auntie."

Wang Jing is a little touched, a newcomer screenwriter, but this little brother has always respected himself.

Luo Junyan then asked: "Brother Xiang, you are a college student and knowledgeable, I would like to ask you to give me some advice. If I make a movie, would I make a mistake?"

Wang Jing thought about it for a while, and said: "You are very popular now, and you have a lot of selling points. I think you can make a movie."

Luo Junyan glanced at him, thinking that Uncle Tianlin would let his son eat shit? But he looked as usual and said, "Brother Xiang, do the screenwriters and directors do it? It's for the film."

Wang Jing looked at him in surprise and said, "A Jun, don't think my dad is the director, I haven't done it."

Luo Junyan said solemnly: "How difficult can it be? I haven't done recording records. It's easy to find someone to ask if you don't understand. You're so smart, you can learn it in a few clicks. You don’t need to invest. You can also schedule the film according to your time. You have no loss at all. Brother Xiang, this is an opportunity. If we get lucky and the film sells out, do you still have to survive the expiration of the flying paper boy? The TVB executives are all anxious to talk to you."

In Wang Jing's mind, only the gambling roulette with two areas of play and no play was spinning fast, and the unplayed area was shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye. He still did not shoot the stop button.

"Fuck it." When Wang Jing tapped the stop button, only the hair was as thick as the area where he didn't do it.

Luo Junyan clapped his hands and said: "This is a high-achieving student who has graduated from Hong Kong University. Xiang Brother, let's go and buy roast goose first, and then I will contact Brother Cheng to sign a contract with you."

Both of them were determined in their hearts, and walked away laughing all the way.

Wang Tianlin still lives with his son's family. It was after arriving home at night that he saw the double contract between Wang Jing and Luo Junyan for the director and screenwriter. The director's pay was 20,000 yuan, and the screenwriter's pay was 10,000 yuan, which must be paid in full after the production of the film. The contract is valid for 1 year. During the validity period, if one party fails to perform the contract and the film cannot be completed, the other party will be required to pay three times the compensation.

After eating the roast goose with a snack, Wang Tianlin looked up several times and saw his son full of spring breeze, and said helplessly: "After the filming of "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang", I will help you take a few days off. You come to the set to study hard. Get to know the uncles in various departments."

Wang Jing nodded honestly and said, "Okay, Dad."

Wang Tianlin was roaring at this moment in his heart, go eat shit, and honestly go back to the codeword after rushing to the street.

On the other side, Luo Junyan and Cheng Cheng, who signed Wang Jing with a lot of money, are discussing and creating a script. The main story line is Cheng Cheng's proposal.

Brother Cheng holds a cigarette in one hand, and a tea mug in the other, pacing indoors, "Movies cannot be made into serious academic art. Excellent films should be suitable for all ages and men and women. They should be loved and seen, and tracked hot spots. Of course, the most important point is to reduce production costs."

Luo Junyan stared at the paper with a sad face, and said: "Master, last time I wore women's clothing, my dad almost broke off the father-son relationship with me. If I want to do this this time, then I really have no way to survive."

Cheng Ge calmly flicked the ashes and said, "I'm an artist. He will eventually understand everything you have done for art. Jun, now is not the time for random thoughts. Tonight, I must concentrate on smoothing the outline of the script. Tomorrow, let Fatty Wang rush over directly after get off work to perfect the characters and bridges as soon as possible. The subjective initiative of the screenwriter should not just stay on the slogan."

Luo Junyan stepped back and said, "Master, can I change the title of the film, "Pretty Girl in Hardcover", if the nickname is called, I will be embarrassed in the future."

Brother Cheng said: "A Jun, are you embarrassed when the movie hits the street? The three words "beautiful girl" can attract many people in TVB to take a look. These are all iron votes. Don't underestimate the title party."

Luo Junyan did not delve into which association the title party is in Xiangjiang, so he could only accept it reluctantly, and then asked, "What about the theme song and the soundtrack?"

Brother Cheng said: "According to your statement, I think your sister is completely competent in the soundtrack. She is a golden particle buried in the sand dunes. As far as urban spoof comedy is concerned, the ones I have felt in life are a bit out of date."

Luo Junyan thought for a while and said, "Xu Guanjie, that is Brother Asam, his song "Half a Catty Eight Two" is so powerful, it is very suitable for a funny film, but unfortunately we can't write it."

Brother Cheng said, "I will listen to you singing."

Luo Junyan sang "Half a Catty Eight Two", you are a laborer in the Lidi class,,,.

Brother Cheng thought for a while, and said, "I have an impression, so if you change the words directly, just use the tune of this song."

Luo Junyan hurriedly said, "How about that? You will be accused."

Brother Cheng said slowly: “It’s better to report, and you can create hot spots. We will drag him for a few days and the movie will be over. As for how to deal with it in the end, it’s best to pay some money in private and settle. The main thing is to see you communicate. The ability to admit mistakes must be sincere, and we must be willing to put down our body. If we don’t make records, they shouldn’t cling to it."

Luo Junyan thought for a while, and felt that this seemed really good.

"Legend of Chu Liuxiang" has come to an end. The ratings of the last episode reached an astonishing 77%, which was a complete victory. TVB specially organized a celebration banquet for all the crew.

Of course, Luo Junyan and Wang Jing could not be seen at the celebration banquet, the former was not invited at all, and the latter couldn't make time at all. Yes, Fatty Wang is nestling in Brother Cheng's apartment, forcing himself to run into the script with the main creator.

Brother Cheng took advantage of the time to eat noodles in the evening and continued to encourage his fighting spirit: "There is only one week left in September. Seeing the loss of time every minute and a second, I feel a sense of urgency in my heart. We, as artists, , Is to have a sense of social responsibility, how long do we have to wait for the long-awaited movie audiences in Hong Kong?"

Wang Jing grabbed the last piece of char siu. After such a period of morning and evening reports, he already felt that the boat on board this time did not look like a serious fish. But he has learned well and stopped all arguing about academic, empirical, logical, etc., and now his only thought is to get the pay. If the movie is out of luck, it will be released, and the movie audiences of Xiangjiang will be blocked at the door of someone's house. He will not be able to control it. Anyway, the director and screenwriter will use his short-lived new stage name Wang Rifa.

Wang Jing chewed on the barbecued pork, raised his thumb, and praised: "Brother Cheng, you are really doing art. By the way, you just made money."

Brother Cheng felt that this little fat man could speak, but he would never be confused. He asked, "Axiang, the problem now lies with you. Your understanding of this film is still on the surface. Let's start from scratch. It’s up to you to sharpen the knife and chop wood by mistake."

Wang Jing is not a person who has no ideas, but he doesn't like such spoof movies, and thinks that Xiangjiang audiences will not accept this form of comedy. After thinking about it, he said: "I adjusted the script this way based on the script that Jun gave me. A young man at the bottom of TVB, Jun, is the male lead. In the film, he is the image of Jun. A boy of Zai. Because of an encounter, he was attracted by an innocent sweet sister, A Shi, who is the heroine, and this innocent sweet sister’s dad is the famous Axe Gang in the underworld, the red stick wise brother, he just thought. Marry your daughter into a wealthy family as an opportunity to be in the upper ranks, so that you can take care of your daughter very closely."

Brother Cheng interrupted and said: "This needs to be changed, and the girl's father needs to be changed to a depressed gangster. A red club has to be a dozen or so people, and the cost of extras has to be taken into consideration."

Wang Jing thought for a while, felt that this role might be more tense, and immediately wrote it down in the notebook, and then continued: "A Jun tried his best to hook A Shi. He learned through tracking that A Shi secretly signed up for the Hong Kong sister beauty pageant. In the event, her biggest wish is to win the Hong Kong sister competition. And the Hong Kong sister has a swimsuit competition unit, and the heroine is to be married into a wealthy family, so naturally her dad would not agree to her appearance on TV in a swimsuit. A Shi has always been Frightened secretly to participate in training, and the result was high tension and fainted backstage before the live broadcast of the finals. In order not to make A Shi upset because of the accidental absence of the final, Ah Jun tried his best to step onto the Hong Kong sister swimsuit field as A Shi. And caused a sensation."

Wang Jing paused and thought for a while, but couldn't help but ask: "These sections in the middle are absurd, but everyone seems to be too exaggerated? It seems that all of them are idiots."

Brother Cheng drank a sip of tea and said, "Axiang, this is your problem. What is a prank comedy? There are two levels, one is the behavior level. You can't turn to the exaggerated evil way, but the serious nonsense. The other is the spiritual level. Don’t persuade wine to be filled with wine, don’t use red wine to white wine, and the degree should not be low. What is the state of filling too much? There is joy in suffering, and sadness in joy, and all happiness in sorrow. It's the essence of spoof comedy."

Wang Jing and Luo Junyan both listened stupidly, especially the little fat man, suddenly felt no wonder Ah Jun opened his mouth and shut up my master, this is so high level of brainwashing.

Brother Cheng clicked on the desktop with his finger, interrupted their looking up, and said, "Go on."

Wang Jing recorded what she had just said in her notebook, and then continued: "Another line. A Chang, a patrol officer who has just graduated and reported, is full of yearning for CID work. When he was patrolling, he accidentally discovered that A Jun was following A Shi, and A Chang immediately regarded A Jun as Acting as a kidnapper who commits crimes. Achang lacks experience and is eager to do his work. He decides to change into casual clothes to imitate CID, follow Ajun privately to stop the crime, and turns out to be regarded as a poor boy who wants to seduce his daughter by Zhige. Coincidentally, the three parties are working together. Sister Hong Kong competed in the final. In the end, Ah Chang accidentally captured Zhige who was transporting drugs and made a great contribution to be promoted to CID Inspector. A Jun was inferior because of his swimsuit image. A Shi could not wait to confess that he wanted to leave Hong Kong, so A Jun went into the sea to chase him. Finally embraced the beauty."

Scenes flashed in Wang Jing's mind, feeling that they were actually very interesting. He was thinking about whether to stop Wang Rifa's stage name.

Brother Cheng nodded and said, "Axiang, what is the most important thing on the wedding night?"

Wang Jing stared at him with small eyes, and said unsurely: "Go to bed?"

Brother Cheng shook his head, got up and patted his shoulder, and said, "Make sure not to call the wrong name because you drink too much. Brother, details determine success or failure."

Luo Junyan is also constructing the role he will play in the script. How to be a serious nonsense rather than a rigid exaggeration seems to be very challenging. The other is the headache Huang Zaoshi, Liao Qizhi, and Li Chengchang, the three main supporting roles that have been predetermined, should be paid a lot for 5,000 each. It seems that a small party of four is going to be called. As for the second-level supporting role, Sister Lan of the Cantonese restaurant in Bayu Street, and brother Huashan who cannot receive the protection fee, should they charge a few hundred yuan for the photogenic?
