Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

"TVB is going to remake "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"?"

Since Lin Daoqiu took charge of Oriental TV, he has intensified his efforts in collecting wireless intelligence.

If there is any new decision from Fang Yihua, he will know it as soon as possible on the same day.

And when Lin Daoqiu learned that Fang Yihua asked Wang Tianlin to remake "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", he didn't know what to say.

If he hadn't appeared, 83 Shooting Condors would have been Huang Rihua and Weng Meiling's masterpiece.

But it is a pity that because of his appearance, the ratings of 83 Shooting Condors were poor. What has not changed is that the song "Iron-Blooded Heart" is still very popular and popular.

However, Jenny has already joined New Oriental Records, so the theme song for the sequel to The Condor Heroes may already include the pairing of Rowan and Jenny.

Speaking of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" Lin Daoqiu suddenly remembered an interesting thing.

He remembered that Andy Lau once filmed a movie "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" with Chen Yulian.

And it was precisely because of that drama that Andy Lau was completely fascinated by Chen Yulian, and even in the end, he even made himself look fake.

It would definitely be a very interesting thing if Andy Lau was brought in to remake "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" at this time and then work on the sequel to "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

"Mr. Lin, Andy Lau and Miao Qiaowei have arrived."

After Fang Jinsheng knocked on the door and entered the house, he spoke to Lin Daoqiu, and Lin Daoqiu then asked him to invite Andy Lau and others in.

Soon, Andy Lau and Miao Qiaowei were brought into Lin Daoqiu's office by Fang Jinsheng.

This was not the first time they met Lin Daoqiu. They had had a lot of contact with Lin Daoqiu when they were filming "School Police".

"Mr. Lin..."

Andy Lau and Miao Qiaowei respectfully called Mr. Lin.

"Don't be so formal. We are all acquaintances. Come and sit down."

Lin Daoqiu waved to them and then invited them to sit down.

"Actually, before you guys came in, I just received a message saying that TVB is preparing to remake "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"."

Andy Lau and Miao Qiaowei didn't understand what Lin Daoqiu meant, so they could only sit there and smile awkwardly.

"Actually, I plan to make a movie to compete with "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" if you come here now, and also to remake Mr. Jin Yong's novel."

Although Lin Daoqiu annoyed Lin Daoqiu with the adaptation of "The Swordsman", Lin Daoqiu did not plan to make any changes in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and planned to roughly follow the original work.

Andy Lau and Miao Qiaowei were naturally very happy when they heard what Lin Daoqiu said. After all, they would immediately start working in Dongfang, which was of course a good thing for them.

But the problem now is that even if they want to leave, Wireless is not willing to let them go.

"Don't worry, I will handle your contract with Wireless. Just have a good rest these days and prepare to join the team."

Lin Daoqiu did not sign Andy Lau and Miao Qiaowei to Oriental TV, but let them join New Oriental Film Company.

After all, they will still develop in the direction of movies, so there is no need for them to sign with Oriental TV.

The two of them looked at Lin Daoqiu with great gratitude. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid they would have been hidden by Wireless until the end of the contract and then change careers.

Or just go back to wireless and renew their contract, and then live a life they don't like as before.

Joining New Oriental is the best choice for Andy Lau and Michael Miao now.

"Thank you, Mr. Lin. We will work hard to film and live up to your expectations of us."

Andy Lau and Michael Miu thanked Lin Daoqiu and left the office.

These two people did not know that the termination fee that Lin Daoqiu had to pay for their contract was quite large.

Although it seems that these millions of Hong Kong dollars are a bit much now, and they were still spent on two newcomers.

But for Lin Daoqiu, he can hire Andy Lau and Michael Miu for a few million Hong Kong dollars. This money is really not a loss for him, and it is also a huge profit.

Not long after, Zeng Lizhen received the lawyer sent by Oriental TV in her office.

Andy Lau, Michael Miu, Li Tiansheng, Zhao Zhenqiang, Gan Guoliang, Li Huimin, Qiu Jiaxiong, plus Tony Leung who has left before.

Lin Daoqiu hired three actors and five producers from TVB in one go, and this was just the beginning.

"Can I say no?"

Zeng Lizhen looked at this list and felt a little dizzy.

"We all act in accordance with the regulations in the contract. If Manager Zeng has any objections to this, we can go to court to file a lawsuit."

The lawyers sent by Oriental TV were unambiguous at all. If Zeng Lizhen refused to terminate the contract, they would sue her in court.

And if the other party still refuses to agree to the termination fee, then it is absolutely impossible for Wireless to win the case in court.

"Mr. Lin is really well prepared. He is willing to spend so much money to sign these people. If this is the case, I have nothing to refuse."

Before these lawyers arrived, Zeng Lizhen had already asked Fang Yihua for his opinion.

The other party's answer was simple. If you can't stop it, just follow the terms stipulated in the contract. Since Lin Daoqiu wants to poach people from TVB, he must be prepared for a lot of bleeding.

This time, in order to poach these people, Lin Daoqiu paid nearly 7 million in liquidated damages, but this amount of money was nothing to Lin Daoqiu.

Compared with the liquidated damages of seven million, the energy these people can contribute after joining Oriental TV will far exceed everyone's imagination.

It didn't take long for the termination of the contract to be completed smoothly. Zeng Lizhen accepted the check handed over by the other party. This action by Zeng Lizhen officially announced that these people were now officially free agents and had nothing to do with TVB from now on.

It was only the day after the contract was terminated that newspapers and magazines received the news, and then they began to cover the incident overwhelmingly.

Lin Daoqiu poached so many people from Wireless in one breath, but there was no sign of this before.

Although everyone knows very well that after Lin Daoqiu takes over Oriental TV, he will definitely start poaching people from TVB.

But what he didn't expect was that his main targets were not actors, but five gold medal producers.

Some people say that the reason why Lin Daoqiu did this is because Oriental TV's own actor resources are abundant enough, so there is no need to poach too many actors from TVB.

What Oriental TV lacks the most now is excellent producers, so Lin Daoqiu poached five gold medal producers from TVB.

While everyone was still discussing the impact of Oriental TV poaching talents from TVB, TVB suddenly announced that it would make a sequel to "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", with Huang Rihua and Weng Meiling as the protagonists.

Not long after TVB made the announcement, Oriental TV also announced almost at the same time that it would remake Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and the protagonists will naturally be the duo of Andy Lau and Chen Yulian.
