Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Just when Lin Daoqiu was about to say something to Chen Yulian, he suddenly felt someone walking behind him.

Looking back, Lin Daoqiu found that the other person looked familiar, but couldn't remember his name for the moment.

"Hello, Mr. Lin, I am Wu Siyuan."

Wu Siyuan was invited to attend the final banquet, and it was thanks to Zou Wenhuai that he found out that this young man was Lin Daoqiu, who was famous in Xiangjiang.

"Hello Mr. Wu, are you okay?"

Lin Daoqiu's question made Wu Siyuan not sure how to answer, and he was stunned for a moment.

Even if you know you have something to ask him, you don't need to ask him directly as soon as you meet him. Isn't Lin Daoqiu a good talker?

But this wasn't right. Didn't he have a nice chat with Zou Wenhuai just now? Why did he seem to be a different person when he came here?

"I had only heard of Mr. Lin's name before, but never met him. Today I just took this opportunity to come over and get to know each other."

Wu Siyuan's attitude was very low. He was not as ambitious as Zou Wenhuai to bring Lin Daoqiu under his banner.

But it is true that he wants Lin Daoqiu to help him make a few movies. After all, "Master Qian" and "Ip Man" currently being released are all produced by this young man.

"Mr. Wu, you're welcome. Please sit down."

The person next to him immediately gave up a seat to Wu Siyuan. Because Shi Wenyan had already left, there were two empty seats at the table.

After Wu Siyuan sat down, he found a clean cup, poured himself a glass of beer, and then raised the cup.

"I didn't have the chance to congratulate Mr. Lin for breaking the Hong Kong box office record before, so I borrowed flowers and offered a glass of Buddha to Mr. Lin."

After Wu Siyuan finished speaking, he drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp, then turned the glass upside down to indicate that he had toasted.

Wu Siyuan is actually also a famous producer, and he also owns Siyuan Pictures Company, which is even more powerful than ordinary producers.

Lin Daoqiu even knew that "Drunken Master" produced by Siyuan Pictures would take over 6 million at the box office in the near future.

Of course, this happened in Lin Daoqiu's previous life. Now because of the butterfly effect caused by his appearance, I don't know whether the box office of "Drunken Master" will become more or less.

"Mr. Wu, you're welcome. You are a senior, so I should honor you."

Lin Daoqiu picked up the cup filled with beer and drank it all in one gulp like Wu Siyuan.

"Mr. Lin is indeed bold and generous. He is indeed a hero." Wu Siyuan extended his thumb to Lin Daoqiu.

Lin Daoqiu did not feel any happiness after being praised like this by the other party. Instead, he had to be wary of the ecstasy soup given by Wu Siyuan.

At the beginning, I didn’t know how he deceived Leslie Cheung and Huang Xingxiu, and the two people went to help him make a romantic movie called "Spring in the Red Mansion".

Poor Rong Shao only received a salary of 6,500 yuan, and what's even more pitiful is that the film received a good response when it was released, but it was banned by the censorship office because it was too "romantic".

The unlucky ones could only be Leslie Cheung and Huang Xingxiu, but the movie did break the 1 million box office mark, making Wu Siyuan a fortune.

"Mr. Wu, you're welcome, but you're not looking for me just to have a drink with me, right?"

Of course Wu Siyuan didn't come to see him just to have a drink with Lin Daoqiu, and he wasn't that boring either.

After pondering for a moment, Wu Siyuan suddenly raised his head and looked at Lin Daoqiu, with confusion in his eyes.

"I would like to ask Mr. Lin a question."

Lin Daoqiu originally thought that the other party came to invite him to film, but he did not expect that Wu Siyuan came to him just to ask a question.

"I wonder if there is anything I can do to help Mr. Wu clear up his doubts?"

"I borrowed Jackie Chan from Lovina before to shoot two movies. The first one, "The Snake" sold quite well, and now we are shooting a movie called "Drunken Master". I would like to ask

Mr. Lin, do you think Aaron and Yuan Biao are comparable?"

In fact, Wu Siyuan liked Jackie Chan very much at the beginning, so he loaned him out from Luo Wei to film two dramas. "Snake" took over 2 million at the box office, which is already pretty good.

But if compared with Yuan Biao's "Master Qian", the box office difference is over 10 million.

Wu Siyuan really couldn't understand why "Master Qian" starring Yuan Biao could sell more than 10 million yuan and break the box office record in Hong Kong.

But the film they made, "The Snake", could only sell for more than two million, which puzzled him and he couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.

In the end, Wu Siyuan felt that the problem might be with the male protagonist. He even wondered whether the box office would be better than it is now if Yuen Biao was used in the movie "Snake-Shaped Trickster".

"I believe that Mr. Wu originally lent Jackie Chan the leading role because he had confidence in him. If this is the case, then he should continue to trust him."

Lin Daoqiu didn't want Wu Siyuan's confidence in Jackie Chan to be shaken. After all, "Drunken Master" had won the runner-up at the annual box office in his previous life.

"Aaron is actually very attentive when making movies. He basically stays on the set every day, thinking wholeheartedly about how to film the movie well. Originally, I thought he would be the number one martial arts star in Hong Kong in the future."

If Yuan Biao hadn't emerged from nowhere, Wu Siyuan's speculation would have become a reality, but now that he says such things, if others hear him, they will probably laugh out loud.

Lin Daoqiu didn't know how to explain it. He couldn't tell Wu Siyuan that because of my appearance, Yuan Biao became famous inexplicably, and Jackie Chan was suppressed because of it.

"Sometimes you can't just look at the present. Maybe there will be unexpected surprises for the people Mr. Wu likes in the future."

Lin Daoqiu's words seemed to be comforting the other party, but in fact he was telling the truth, but Wu Siyuan was afraid that he would only think that Lin Daoqiu was just saying polite words.

"Actually, I came to Mr. Lin, hoping that if there is a chance in the future, I would ask you to film a movie for Aaron."

Wu Siyuan didn't expect Lin Daoqiu to agree to him now. After all, the other party didn't even give Zou Wenhuai face, so how could he give him Wu Siyuan face.

"Of course it would be no problem if there is a chance."

Lin Daoqiu did not agree or refuse. His words sounded ambiguous. You could think that he agreed, or you could think that he was declining.

It seemed that Lin Daoqiu had already guessed that Lin Daoqiu would answer this way, but Wu Siyuan did not show a disappointed expression.

After saying what he wanted to say, he looked relieved.

"Then don't bother Mr. Lin. If Miss Chen is interested in acting in a movie, please contact me at any time."

Chen Yulian didn't expect that Wu Siyuan would also extend an invitation to her, and she didn't know how to answer.

"Thank you Mr. Wu, but my current job is to make TV series, and movies are still too far away for me."

Chen Yulian declined Wu Siyuan's invitation directly.

In fact, like He Guanchang, Wu Siyuan was also very optimistic about Chen Yulian, and he also knew that Lin Daoqiu and He Guanchang had an affair.

Therefore, it is definitely impossible for He Guanchang to film with Chen Yulian.

And there is another reason, that is because he mistakenly thought that Chen Yulian was Lin Daoqiu's woman.

"The man is talented and the woman is beautiful, what a match made in heaven."

Before leaving, Chen Yulian vaguely heard what Wu Siyuan said, and she was stunned.
