Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Like two elementary school students who had done something wrong, Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng kept their heads down and did not dare to raise them after entering Lin Daoqiu's office.

Lin Daoqiu found it very interesting. He did not believe that Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng would be so cautious.

When they went to help Bao Shaogang, didn't they think that this situation would happen today?

Even if it didn't happen at the beginning, but then transferred to Golden Harvest, and then went to Baocheng Cinema Line, do you really think that this situation will not happen today.

"We haven't seen each other for a long time since we said goodbye at the Academy Awards. How are you two doing lately?"

Lin Daoqiu had a smile on his face, and he didn't look angry.

However, Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng did not think that this matter would be easily solved just because Lin Daoqiu had a smile on his face.

"Mr. Lin, to tell you the truth, I have been having a very bad life since I left New Oriental."

Although Tsui Hark said this, in fact, after leaving New Art City, he went to film "New Shushan Swordsman" and I don't know how happy he was.

After receiving a large investment of 50 million for the first time, Tsui Hark put all his energy into that drama.

But it is a pity that Lin Daoqiu filmed a "Legend of Sword and Fairy" to compete with him, so in comparison, "New Shushan Swordsman" is obviously not as good as "Legend of Sword and Fairy".

Tsui Hark was thinking that if he had not left New Art City and had made "New Shushan Swordsman" with the support of Lin Daoqiu, the effect would have been much better than the one he made before.

But there are no ifs and maybes in this world, and there is no such thing as regret medicine. He did fail in "New Shushan Swordsman". This is an undoubted matter.

"Mr. Lin, Lao Xu already knows that he is wrong. In fact, he was also obsessed with it at the beginning, so he agreed to Bao Shaogang to help him film the movie. It was entirely because he was focused on filming "New Shushan Swordsman", and he couldn't listen to my advice.

"

What Shi Nansheng said now was naturally to excuse Tsui Hark, but as long as Lin Daoqiu continued to ask, the other party would definitely be embarrassed.

But Lin Daoqiu did not continue to ask questions, but let the other party go.

"I don't deny Director Xu's talent in movies, but it's a pity that when you made a choice, both luck and vision were completely wrong."

Lin Daoqiu was naturally talking about Bao Shaogang and Pan Disheng.

Tsui Hark naturally did not dare to refute, he nodded in agreement.

"Director Xu, I have no objection if you want to return to New Art City, but what if you run away again? Don't promise me that this won't happen, I... don't... believe it."

Lin Daoqiu has no interest in wasting time on Tsui Hark. If he can come up with a way to get the best of both worlds, it is not impossible for him to return to Xinyi City.

In fact, Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng had already thought about this issue before coming here.

In the end, Shi Nansheng came up with a solution.

"Mr. Lin, we don't plan to return to New Art City. We want to open an independent film studio just like before."

Shi Nansheng's words stunned Lin Daoqiu for a moment.

Tsui Hark actually wants to set up a film studio independent of New Art City? Do they think they will agree?

Even if Lin Daoqiu asked them to return to Xinyi City, he might not agree. Unexpectedly, they would go even further. These two guys are too whimsical.

"Mr. Lin, I know my request sounds a bit fanciful, but you should be satisfied with the conditions I have given."

Lin Daoqiu didn't speak, but nodded. He wanted to hear what Shi Nansheng came up with.

"Three hundred million. If Tsui Hark's film studio helps others make a movie before helping New Art City earn 300 million, we will be fined 100 million."

Lin Daoqiu had never thought of making such a treaty before.

When he heard what Shi Nansheng said, Lin Daoqiu was really shocked by the other party's courage.

Compared with the verbal promise not to run away, this fine is far less meaningful.

Judging from the current situation, Tsui Hark has to make at least five movies as popular as "The Best of Us" to earn a box office of 300 million.

Moreover, Lin Daoqiu would not be stupid enough to think that the 300 million Shi Nansheng said was referring to the box office of Xiangjiang alone, so the other party was too brave.

"Does Director Xu have any objections to Miss Shi's statement?"

Lin Daoqiu turned to look at Tsui Hark and asked.

"This was a decision we made together."

Tsui Hark replied sincerely that although 300 million sounds like a lot, he feels that the box office of Hong Kong movies will only continue to rise in the future, and 300 million should not be a big problem.

If he can't even earn 300 million, then after the Baocheng Cinema Line is defeated by Lin Daoqiu, there will be no more rivals for him in the Hong Kong film industry, and he will have no way out by then.

If that's the case, it's better to just stay at New Oriental and not worry about running out of films.

"Okay, since you two are so confident, I don't have anything to say. I'll just do what you want."

For Lin Daoqiu, if he agrees to the condition proposed by Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng, he will not suffer at all.

At least now it seems that if Tsui Hark wants to earn 300 million, it will take at least five or six years to achieve it, and it may even take longer.

Since the other party was willing to put forward such conditions in exchange for returning to New Oriental, there was nothing he could not agree to.

After hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng's hearts finally fell to the ground.

…………

"No matter what I say, no matter what I say, Tsui Hark is just a white-eyed wolf who is not familiar with things."

Two days later, the news that Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng returned to New Oriental appeared on the pages of newspapers.

It can be said that Tsui Hark was the first person to change jobs since Pan Disheng established the Pou Cheng Cinema Line.

Originally Pan Disheng still valued Tsui Hark very much, but after Lin Daoqiu awarded the Academy Award for Best Film to "The New Swordsman of Shushan", Tsui Hark's situation in Pou Seng Cinemas became a bit embarrassing.

"Forget it, since he wants to leave, let him go. He will definitely regret the decision he made by then."

At this time, Pan Disheng was still very confident in himself. He felt that Baocheng Cinemas would definitely be able to beat Lin Daoqiu's Xiangjiang Cinemas in the near future.

At that time, he will personally ban Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng so that they will not be able to live in Hong Kong.

At this time, Eric Tsang in the conference room looked a little distracted.

Tsui Hark did talk to him about this incident before leaving. At that time, Zeng Zhiwei was not only shocked, but also depressed.

In fact, he didn't want to stay in Pou Cheng Cinema, but he didn't get the attention of Lin Daoqiu like Tsui Hark.

And the most unlucky thing is that his "Happy Three Guns" will collide with Lin Daoqiu's "Godzilla" next. This has caused Zeng Zhiwei to be restless in the past few days and seems to be very lethargic.
