Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

"Sai Zai, do you think Lin Daoqiu is really reliable?"

Wang Tianlin also began to waver. Although he had no intention of betraying Shaw Brothers, it did not mean that he would tie Wang Jing to Shaw Brothers.

And based on his understanding of Shaw Brothers, if he wanted to make a movie now, his best choice would be to go to New Oriental and Golden Harvest.

"Mr. Lin previously reorganized Endeavor Company into New Art City, but how many films can New Art City and Mr. Lin make in a year? Now that I have enough support in the past and I can get a share of the box office, why should I not go?

?”

Wang Jing suddenly began to ask Wang Tianlin, considering the current objective conditions, choosing Lin Daoqiu's New Oriental is the best choice.

Unless Uncle Liu suddenly wakes up and is willing to fund independent production companies and increase their share of the profits, perhaps this is the only way to solve the problem of Shaw Brothers.

But unfortunately, both Wang Tianlin and Wang Jing knew very well that based on Uncle Liu's character, he would never do such a thing.

"Dad, you don't need to worry. In the final analysis, it's whether the movie I make can make money. If it can, Uncle Six will still invite me back no matter how much he hates me. If not, he won't even care about me.

people."

When Wang Jing entered the industry, director Chu Yuan once told him that he could do anything in making a movie, but it had to be a hit because it was the only death penalty.

If Wong Jing's movie can be a big hit by then, Uncle Six will smile and invite him back to Shaw Brothers, even if he has a lot of grievances.

"Forget it, just do your best at New Oriental. I'm an old guy and I believe that wireless can still be used. The worst I can do is get scolded by Fang Yihua and Uncle Six."

For the future of his son, Wang Tianlin had no choice but to take the blame himself. At least he is still a gold medal producer and TVB dramas still need him, so I believe nothing will happen to him for the time being.

But if the movies Wong Jing makes don't sell well by then, I'm afraid the father and son will be in big trouble.

…………

A week later, the revised script of "Thousand Kings Fighting Thousand Tyrants" was sent to Lin Daoqiu's desk by Wen Jun and Wang Jing.

After reading it briefly, I found that the script was slightly different from the original plot. Wang Jing added some action scenes and gambling skills.

Overall, this movie should be impressive. After all, Wang Jing has not yet been affected by the idea of ​​peeing, so the drama he wrote is still very serious.

"The script looks very good. You can start filming. I will add 300,000 to the production fee, making it 1 million."

Neither Wang Jing nor Wen Juan expected that Lin Daoqiu would add another three hundred thousand to the production fee, which made them very happy.

I believe no one will find it objectionable that the production cost is too high. They wish Lin Daoqiu would pay them more.

"By the way, Ah Jing came over to help me make a movie. Aren't you worried that Uncle Six will have any objections?"

Lin Daoqiu suddenly turned the topic to Wang Jing.

"Mr. Lin is joking, how could I, a small character like me, bother Uncle Six and care about me?"

Wang Jing did not intend to tell about the pressure exerted on him by Fang Yihua and Uncle Liu, because now was not the time.

"I heard that Miss Fang has already approached Uncle Tianlin and wants you to go back to Shaw Brothers to make movies. It is said that this is Uncle Six's wish."

Wang Jing did not expect that Lin Daoqiu also knew about this matter, but it saved him a lot of effort.

"I didn't expect Mr. Lin to be so well-informed. Miss Fang did find my father. She said that Uncle Six wanted me to return to Shaw Brothers to help make movies, but I have already refused."

"Why? This is what Uncle Liu said himself. Aren't you afraid?"

Lin Daoqiu felt a little curious. At this time, Uncle Liu's status in Xiangjiang was extraordinary. If he wanted to ban Wang Tianlin and Wang Jing, he only needed one sentence.

When did Wang Jing become so bold, and why didn't he know it? Or is the Wang Jing in front of him actually a fake?

"It's definitely scary, but since I chose to join New Oriental, I won't regret it. And my most important task now is to make a good movie. Other things are not within my scope of consideration for the time being."

Anyone who doesn't know Wang Jing will definitely be moved by his words. However, although Lin Daoqiu doesn't know Wang Jing thoroughly, he still knows Wang Jing very well.

Even though this guy looked so righteous now, Lin Daoqiu could more or less guess what he was thinking.

The reason why he chose New Oriental was entirely because it could give him much more than what Shaw Brothers could give him.

However, Lin Daoqiu has no intention of criticizing these things. As long as Wang Jing's movies can sell well, he will always support him.

If one day the price offered by Shaw Brothers is higher than that of New Oriental, Lin Daoqiu believes that Wang Jing will definitely switch back to Shaw Brothers.

"Thank you A Jing for your trust in our New Oriental, but there is one thing I want to remind you first."

"Mr. Lin, please speak."

Wang Jing thought Lin Daoqiu was planning to hit him, but unfortunately this time he guessed wrong.

"Uncle Six has ordered that actors from Shaw Brothers are not allowed to take on New Oriental's movies, so I'm afraid you won't be able to recruit Xie Xian and the others for the leading and supporting roles in "Thousand Kings Fight Thousand Tyrants"."

At this time, Wang Jing was so surprised that he stood up from his chair, because the protagonist in his mind was Xie Xian, and this person was simply irreplaceable.

If Xie Xian cannot be hired now, how can we continue to film "Thousands of Kings Fighting Thousands of Tyrants"?

"Would you like to hear my advice?"

It seemed that Lin Daoqiu was planning to give Wang Jing some advice this time.

Now Wang Jing doesn't have any good ideas. After all, Uncle Six has already given the order. Naturally, Xie Xian and the others don't dare to go against Uncle Six's wishes and help him film the movie.

Unless Wong Jing is willing to change roles, the drama will have to be put aside for the time being.

"If you are unwilling to change the actors, I'm afraid this drama will have to be put aside temporarily, but you can consider writing some other types of movies."

"A different kind of movie?"

Wang Jing is so confused right now that he can't calm down and think about things at all.

You must know that this is not just about the inability to start filming "Thousand Kings Fighting Thousand Tyrants", it means that in the future, the movies he will help New Oriental make will not be able to use Shaw Brothers' resources.

"That's right. You can go back and think about it. In fact, there is no need to worry too much. I believe that with Ah Jing's ability, he will definitely be able to come up with a solution to the problem."

Lin Daoqiu had no intention of helping Wang Jing think of a solution to the problem. He had to let him think about it himself.

In fact, it doesn't matter if you can't use Shaw Brothers actors. After all, the outside world is more exciting than Shaw Brothers.

And within New Oriental, there are many actors who can be used. It just depends on whether Wang Jing can figure it out.
