Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978
Chapter 37 The Neglected Man
"The latest masterpiece of the Hong family, Shaw Brothers Golden Harvest joins forces to win the annual box office championship..."
""Master Qian" is coming with great momentum, taking in a box office of RMB 1.8 million in just two days..."
When going to work on Monday, office workers in Xiangjiang are used to going to newsstands to buy newspapers and read the news when they get on or off the bus.
The most popular news on the entertainment pages of newspapers on Monday was almost all about the box office success of "Master Qian".
Overnight, the names of Yuen Biao and Guo Youhua resounded throughout Hong Kong, and even overshadowed other big stars.
Even director Lam Ching-ying and the villain Zhong Fa got many opportunities to show their faces, but there was only one person missing.
"Brother Qiu, this is so unfair. Without you, "Master Qian" would not have been filmed at all. Those reporters who rushed to the street did not write you in. Do they know how to write news?"
Wen Jun couldn't help but defend Lin Daoqiu. Others didn't know it, but he and Zheng Danrui knew very well that if it hadn't been for Lin Daoqiu, this movie would definitely not have been filmed.
Lin Daoqiu, on the other hand, just glanced at the news in the newspaper and then turned his head to the other side. He seemed to have no reaction to what Wen Jun said.
Zheng Danrui on the side couldn't figure out what Lin Daoqiu was thinking. If he was ignored like this, he would definitely be very sad.
"I'm neither an actor nor a director, nor even a screenwriter. I just have the title of a producer. They are right not to report on me. I can't let me steal the limelight from them, right?"
Not only was Lin Daoqiu very open-minded, he even hoped that his name would not even be mentioned in the newspaper. That would be the best thing.
However, he did not tell his true thoughts, otherwise Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui would definitely be frightened by his words.
After all, in the entertainment industry, everyone is trying their best to improve their reputation. There will never be anyone like Lin Daoqiu who deliberately hides himself.
When Lin Daoqiu had just finished speaking, Wen Juan and Zheng Danrui suddenly signaled each other with their eyes, as if they had something to say to Lin Daoqiu, but they did not dare to say it.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. If you hold it in your heart, you will get internal injuries." Lin Daoqiu noticed that the expressions of the two of them were a little strange, as if they wanted to say something but dared not say it.
Wen Juan felt that the opportunity was rare, so he hurriedly nuzzled at Zheng Danrui, signaling him to take advantage of this opportunity to speak out.
Zheng Danrui looked embarrassed, but in the end he looked at Lin Daoqiu carefully and said: "Brother Qiu, Mr. He from Jiahe came to us yesterday and asked us to write some scripts for him."
Lin Daoqiu thought it was something. It turned out that He Guanchang planned to ask Zheng Danrui and Wen Jun to write several scripts.
"This is a good thing, you won't refuse, right?" Lin Daoqiu actually started to worry about them.
"We didn't agree immediately. We only told the other party that we would consider it for a few days." In fact, Wen Juan wanted to agree immediately. After all, such an opportunity is really rare.
But when they thought of Lin Daoqiu and Feilong, their courage immediately shrank, and it's hard to say who is the real screenwriter of "Master Qian".
"There's nothing to consider. Since Mr. He likes you, just agree. Why don't you still make money if you have money?"
Lin Daoqiu did not expect that Wen Juan and Zheng Danrui were so affectionate and righteous. Unlike Yuan Biao, they signed the contract with Jiahe without saying a word. At least these two people knew to tell him, which was considered very conscientious.
Originally, Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui were worried that Lin Daoqiu would object, but they did not expect that the other party would agree so simply, which made them relieved.
After all, opportunities like this are very rare for newcomers like them. If they can seize it this time, maybe they can become the gold medal screenwriters in Hong Kong.
Raising his hand to look at his watch, Lin Daoqiu realized that the appointment time with Fang Yihua was coming soon. He quickly changed his clothes and went out to keep the appointment.
Fang Yihua originally made an appointment with Feilong, but Feilong was not interested in talking about these things at all now, so he asked Lin Daoqiu to meet Fang Yihua on his behalf.
Unlike Run Run Shaw who likes to have afternoon tea at the Peninsula Hotel, Fang Yihua made an appointment at a coffee shop in the city, which is not far from Wireless.
Although Lin Daoqiu had already checked the time when he went out, he was still five minutes late. When he arrived at the coffee shop, he saw Fang Yihua greeting him with a stinky face.
"Mr. Lin, you are five minutes late." Fang Yihua pointed at the watch on his hand.
"Sorry, there was a traffic jam on the road, so I came late." Lin Daoqiu explained to Fang Yihua after sitting down.
Originally, Feilong didn't come and only sent a young man, which already made Fang Yihua feel unhappy. However, the other party made her late, which she couldn't stand.
"Feilong's temper is getting louder and louder now. He's so busy that he doesn't even have time to drink tea." Fang Yihua was still dissatisfied with Feilong's failure to make the appointment.
"He Yi has been busy recently, and Brother Feilong really can't get away. I'm here to apologize to Miss Fang on his behalf. I will handle the follow-up work of this drama from now on."
We can't let Fang Yihua know that Fei Long is going to jail now, at least until the box office of "Master Qian" is obtained, otherwise we don't know what trouble will happen.
Hearing that Feilong left everything to Lin Daoqiu to handle, Fang Yihua frowned unabashedly to express his dissatisfaction.
She planned to get up and leave several times, but after thinking about it, she still stayed patient. After all, the box office of "Master Qian" was so good that it even hoped to become the annual box office champion.
The more important reason is that Guo Youhua is the heroine of "Master Qian", otherwise Fang Yihua would not ask Feilong to meet, let alone invest in the sequel of this drama.
"You handle it? What can you handle?"
Fang Yihua suddenly remembered something: "By the way, if I remember correctly, you seem to be the producer of "Master Qian", right?"
"I just put up a name and can't help much." Lin Daoqiu said modestly.
Originally Lin Daoqiu was just being modest, but in Fang Yihua's eyes, she felt that Lin Daoqiu was telling the truth. After all, what kind of movies could a person of his age understand? Speaking out would only make people laugh.
"It's a good thing for young people to be self-aware. Don't think that you can become famous just by making a movie. Besides, you should know the reason why this movie is a hit, so I don't need to say more."
Fang Yihua seemed to want to transfer her dissatisfaction with Feilong to Lin Daoqiu. She kept sarcastic and did not save any face for Lin Daoqiu.
Lin Daoqiu couldn't figure out who he provoked whom. As soon as Fang Yihua came in, he started to take it out on himself. He was obviously polite from beginning to end. Is this wrong?
"What Miss Fang said is true, I must keep it in mind." In the end, Lin Daoqiu restrained himself from having an attack. After all, Fang Yihua, who was sitting opposite him, was not a good person.
If possible, it would be better not to antagonize the other party. Let alone Shaw Brothers, just take Wireless as an example. Lin Daoqiu believes that he will definitely have to deal with Wireless in the future.
If he messed up his relationship with Fang Yihua at this time, it would not do him any good, so he could only endure it for the time being.
