Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

"What's wrong? Did you know him before?" Lin Daoqiu thought that Guo Youhua had known Lin Zhengying before.

But Guo Youhua shook her head. She had not known Lin Zhengying before, and it was just her first meeting with him today.

"Since you don't know him, how do you know he can't be this director?" Lin Daoqiu asked with a smile.

"He is too young. Directors need very experienced people to be directors." Guo Youhua has been filming since she was a child. The directors she has met all started in their thirties at least, but she has never seen a director in his early twenties.

Can be a director.

After hearing this, Lin Daoqiu nodded first, then looked at Guo Youhua, pointed at himself and said, "Then do you know how old I am?"

After looking Lin Daoqiu up and down for a while, I saw that Lin Daoqiu looked like he was in his early twenties, but his behavior was very mature and he should not be too young.

Guo Youhua thought for a while and then gave his answer: "About twenty-five."

"Sorry, you guessed wrong this time. I am eighteen years old like you." Lin Daoqiu took out his ID card and shook it in front of Guo Youhua. It clearly stated that Lin Daoqiu was born in 1960.

.

Looking at the birth year on Lin Daoqiu's ID card, Guo Youhua was so surprised that she opened her mouth wide. She never expected that Lin Daoqiu was only eighteen years old. This was simply incredible.

Looking at Lin Daoqiu with an expression of disbelief, Guo Youhua didn't know what to say for a moment.

Lin Daoqiu joked: "You have signed the contract. Even if you regret it now, it is already too late."

"How could I regret it? I... I just didn't expect you to be as old as me." Even though he knew that Lin Daoqiu was only eighteen years old, Guo Youhua did not have any thoughts about not acting in this drama.

From the script to the actors, and judging from everything Lin Daoqiu arranged, he was definitely not joking, but was really planning a movie.

But Guo Youhua's belief in Lin Daoqiu does not mean that she also believes in Lin Zhengying's ability. To know whether a film is shot well, apart from the script, the director is also a very important part.

"Do you really believe that he can be a director?" Based on his trust in Lin Daoqiu, Guo Youhua's suspicion of Lin Zhengying is also beginning to loosen.

"You may think that he can only play a small role now, but he is usually a martial arts instructor. You should know Bruce Lee, right?"

Bruce Lee is a hero in the Chinese world. Even Guo Youhua, who was studying in Tokyo, could hear about his glorious deeds from time to time.

"Brother Xiao Long is Brother Xiao Long, he is him, how can you confuse them." Guo Youhua didn't understand why Lin Daoqiu put Lin Zhengying and Bruce Lee together. She felt it was inappropriate.

"If I told you that he was Bruce Lee's most trusted martial arts instructor, and Bruce Lee would rather not turn on his camera without him, would you believe it?"

After hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Guo Youhua was so surprised that he could hardly open his mouth from ear to ear. It was definitely not an ordinary person who could make Bruce Lee trust him so much. If it was like what Lin Daoqiu said, then there would be no problem in hiring him as a director.

At this time, at the filming scene, Lin Zhengying looked like he was in a state of disbelief. Because of this, he accidentally received a stick while doing a trick, which made him hoarse and grinning from the pain.

"Aying, what's wrong with you today? You look like you're out of your mind? Did something happen?"

The people next to him noticed that something was wrong with Lin Zhengying. With his skills, let alone this stick, he could not defeat even the most difficult moves.

Lin Zhengying quickly shook his head. He was not a person who could hide his worries. Lin Daoqiu suddenly came to him, which inevitably made Lin Zhengying think too much, which affected his performance on the spot.

"I'm fine, let's do it again." Lin Zhengying quickly stopped thinking about those things. He forced himself to calm down and finish filming the scene first.

Finally, when his part was over, Lin Zhengying felt that this half hour was the most difficult period for him in the past few years.

"Maybe the other party is just looking for him to play a role..." Lin Zhengying suddenly came up with this idea, but after a few seconds he shook his head and rejected it.

If you are just looking for a supporting actor, do you need to go all the way to Shaw Brothers to meet you? And you also need to bring Guo Yuhua with you, because Zhong Fa said that she is the heroine of that drama.

The starring role is Yuen Biao, and the main villain is Zhong Fa. In this way, there are no important roles in the film. However, Lin Zhengying felt that it would be good if there was a supporting role, at least she would not have to be a minor player on the set all the time.

Lin Zhengying came to the tea restaurant with an uneasy mood. He immediately saw Lin Daoqiu and Guo Youhua sitting in the corner.

"I'm sorry, Brother Qiu, for keeping you waiting for so long." Lin Zhengying apologized to Lin Daoqiu as soon as he came up.

Looking at Lin Zhengying, who still looked young at this time, Lin Daoqiu found it so interesting that he almost couldn't help but call him Uncle Ying several times.

"Brother Ying, I'm only eighteen years old and it's not appropriate for you to call me Brother Qiu. Let's do this. From now on, I'll call you Brother Ying and you'll call me Ah Qiu. That's it." Lin Daoqiu didn't give Lin Zhengying a chance to refuse and said.

After finishing, he glanced at Guo Youhua next to him.

"Yes, Brother Ying. You are older than Ah Qiu. It's weird for you to call him Brother Qiu. You should call him Ah Qiu." Guo Youhua knew from the look in Lin Daoqiu's eyes that he wanted to help convince Lin Zhengying.

"Okay, Ah Qiu, why did you come to see me specially?" Lin Zhengying looked a little embarrassed. He was looking forward to and worried in his heart. He hoped that Lin Daoqiu could give him a supporting role, but he was afraid that the other party would not have it.

idea.

If you don’t know Lin Zhengying, you might think that he is a hard-to-approach person based on his stern face, but knowing Lin Zhengying, he is actually a good person, and he is absolutely dedicated to his work. When filming, he is so serious that it can be described as life-threatening. If not for this

Otherwise, Uncle Ying would not have died young at the age of forty-five.

"Actually, I came to see Brother Ying this time because I have something to ask you for help." Lin Daoqiu almost told Uncle Ying, but fortunately he changed his words in time, otherwise it would have been embarrassing.

"Aqiu, tell me, if there is anything I can do to help you, I will do my best." Lin Zhengying agreed without much thought, and he did not ask Lin Daoqiu what he wanted from him.

"I believe Brother Ying should already know that I have invited Yuan Biao and Zhong Fa to star in my movie."

Lin Zhengying had already heard Zhong Fa talk about this matter, so he just nodded and remained silent.

"I came to Brother Ying this time to ask you to be the director of my play." After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, Lin Zhengying had not yet reacted. He was still nodding.

But after a few seconds, Lin Zhengying seemed to feel something was wrong. He looked up at Lin Daoqiu with a look of confusion in his eyes, as if he didn't hear clearly what Lin Daoqiu was saying just now.

Then Lin Zhengying's eyes changed from confusion to doubt, and finally to surprise. Then he reacted and stood up from his chair.

"You... you... you want to ask me to be the director?" Lin Zhengying looked at Lin Daoqiu in disbelief, and started to stutter when he spoke. He couldn't believe that Lin Daoqiu wanted to ask him to be the director. This is not

Are you kidding me?

"Yes, Brother Ying's ability is more than enough to be a director." If he hadn't seen Lin Zhengying's movies in later generations, Lin Daoqiu would not have so much confidence in him.

But at this time, Lin Zhengying was only twenty-five years old. There were still 11 years left before he became a director for the first time in 1989. At this time, Lin Zhengying was not as good as the thirty-five-year-old in terms of experience and directing level.

He is far away.

In Hong Kong, someone who could become a director at the age of twenty-five can definitely be called a genius. Lin Zhengying did not think that he was a genius, but the olive branch that Lin Daoqiu extended to him was very attractive to him.

For a moment, Lin Zhengying was caught in a battle between heaven and man. He didn't know whether he should agree to Lin Daoqiu's invitation, even if he really wanted to nod.
