Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Chapter 16 No Shooting

"Brother Fa, I really didn't. You have indeed misunderstood."

Chen Yulian was anxious to explain to the other party, but Chow Yun-fat did not believe her.

After all, at this time he was just a slightly famous actor in TVB, with a monthly salary of only 1,500 yuan.

And Lin Daoqiu is already a famous producer in Hong Kong. The box office of one movie reached 18.8 million. How can this compare?

"Then you promise me to leave Li's and go back to TVB. I will help you talk to Miss Fang."

Chow Yun-fat is still thinking about letting Chen Yulian return to TVB. He feels that as long as Chen Yulian goes back, the two of them will not be separated, and Lin Daoqiu will not be involved.

When Chen Yulian heard that Chow Yun-fat wanted her to return to TVB, she suddenly remembered what Lin Daoqiu had just said to her.

When I go back now, I have to live with a monthly salary of 800 yuan, and I don’t know when I will be able to play the leading role. Do I have to keep struggling for a few more years?

Chen Yulian didn't say a word, she just shook her head. It seemed that she had made up her mind not to return to TVB.

Originally, Chow Yun-fat was still thinking of persuading Chen Yulian, but he had prepared a lot of rhetoric. When he saw Chen Yulian shaking his head, he suddenly felt that the words he had prepared were no longer useful.

This shock left Chow Yun-fat speechless for a moment. He looked at Chen Yulian blankly, as if he couldn't believe that the other party would make such a decision.

"Brother Fa, there's no need to talk about returning to TVB in the future. At least I won't consider it now."

Chen Yulian's attitude suddenly became very firm, which surprised and saddened Chow Yun-fat.

"Is it because of him?"

Chow Yun-fat blamed Lin Daoqiu for Chen Yulian's unwillingness to return to TVB.

"Brother Fa, you misunderstood."

Chen Yulian quickly shook her head: "I have nothing to do with Mr. Lin, so don't think too much about it."

Although Chen Yulian tried her best to explain to Chow Yun-fat, the other party did not believe it at all, and he shook his head with a wry smile, looking very sad.

"It's no wonder, after all, the other party is a big producer with a box office of over 10 million, and he also made "Ip Man" which can compete with "Chu Liuxiang", and he is young and rich. If I were you, I'm afraid I would choose him too.

"

She feels that Chen Yulian's change of heart is because she is not rich enough and does not have a better future than the other party.

"Brother Fa, you really misunderstood. You should go back and have a good rest. We will talk after you calm down."

She felt that there would be no results if she continued to talk to Chow Yun-fat, so Chen Yulian wanted the other party to calm down before talking.

After all, the other party doesn't believe what she says now, and there will be no results if she continues like this. It will only make the relationship between the two people worse.

But Chow Yun-fat suddenly sneered: "You are going to Treasure Island for half a year soon. Do you want me to calm down for half a year?"

Chen Yulian felt that Chow Yun-fat was a bit unreasonable tonight. Although she knew what the other person was thinking, things were not what Chow Yun-fat thought.

"You can think whatever you like. I'm tired and have to go back to rest. I have work tomorrow, so you should go back and rest early."

After all, Chen Yulian is only eighteen years old now, and she has her own temper. She feels that she has explained enough, and since Chow Yun-fat doesn't believe her, he doesn't bother to continue.

"Let's break up."

Just as Chen Yulian turned around, Chow Yun-fat suddenly said the word breakup to her in a very painful tone.

After Chen Yulian heard this, her body trembled suddenly. She probably never expected that Chow Yun-fat would break up with her.

After a few seconds, Chen Yulian replied calmly: Brother Fa, actually we haven't gotten together yet, so we can't talk about breaking up, but since you said so, let's just be friends from now on."

After Chen Yulian finished speaking, she walked quickly upstairs, leaving only Chow Yun-fat, who looked completely lost, still standing there motionless.

"What did you say? No more filming? Why is that?"

The next day, Lin Daoqiu went to Li's TV station as usual. Just as he was writing in his office, Huang Xizhao suddenly called him to his office.

As soon as he entered the door, he heard Huang Xizhao telling him that "The Swordsman" could not be filmed. This was simply bad news for Lin Daoqiu.

"The script has been sent to Mr. Cha. He never responded before. I thought there would be no problem. But this morning, his secretary suddenly called me and told me that Mr. Cha did not want to cooperate with us."

Lin Daoqiu couldn't believe what Huang Xizhao said. The crew had already prepared and was going to Treasure Island in a few days. But now he was told that he couldn't shoot?

Just when Lin Daoqiu was about to ask about the reason, he suddenly remembered some reports he had seen in his previous life.

When Tsui Hark was filming the movie "The Swordsman", he cast Brigitte Lin to play the role of The Invincible, and the result was a good box office and reputation.

But Jin Yong has always been worried about this matter, and he even had trouble with Tsui Hark because of it.

Later, Tsui Hark wanted to film Jin Yong's other works, but Jin Yong said: "I'm still a friend, but I won't sell you the novel, and we won't do any cooperation."

It is said that Jin Yong hates having his novels edited and altered at will, without being faithful to the original version. The most typical examples are Tsui Hark and Wong Kar-wai.

It wasn't until Jin Yong later watched Tsui Hark's adaptation of "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" that he did a good job, that he collaborated with Tsui Hark again.

But now Tsui Hark's "The Swordsman" has not been filmed, so he has taken the lead, and Jin Yong doesn't have much face. When the other party sees that the film has been changed to a female actor, of course they won't film it for you.

.

"While there is still time, the two of us will immediately go to Mr. Cha and explain the situation to him, hoping to win his understanding and at least understand why he refuses to cooperate with us."

Now there is no other way except to go to Jin Yong.

But after Huang Xizhao finished speaking, Lin Daoqiu didn't move. He just sat there without knowing what he was thinking, and didn't even say a word.

Huang Xizhao was extremely anxious. You should know that he had already announced in the media that he would start filming "The Swordsman".

If there is no such drama by then, people will definitely tell him that he is talking big words, and it will be a huge loss of face.

If it just loses his personal face, it doesn't matter, but he represents Li's, and it will be Li's TV station that will be laughed at.

So it's no wonder Huang Xizhao is so nervous.

"You should say something."

When he found that Lin Daoqiu remained silent after he finished speaking, Huang Xizhao was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

"In that case, forget it, I'll go back and write the manuscript first."

Lin Daoqiu suddenly stood up, turned around and walked out.

Huang Xizhao hurriedly asked: "Don't you follow me to find Mr. Cha?"

"I'm not going, and you don't have to go, Mr. Huang. I believe Mr. Cha won't listen to our explanation."

Huang Xizhao opened his mouth and didn't know what to say. He didn't understand why Lin Daoqiu had such an idea.

When he walked to the door, Lin Daoqiu suddenly stopped, and then he turned back and said something to Huang Xizhao.

"It doesn't matter if I can't film "The Swordsman", I can just write a script myself and film it."

After saying that, Lin Daoqiu opened the door and walked out coolly, leaving behind a stunned Huang Xi Zhao.
