Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Huang Zhongbiao felt that John Woo's idea was too crazy, if only he didn't know the relationship between Zhong Chuhong and Lin Daoqiu.

But now that he has seen it with his own eyes and still dares to think like this, Huang Zhongbiao feels that John Woo is really a bit bold.

It stands to reason that now that the investment has been obtained, John Woo should be thinking about how to make this movie well, but he feels that if this movie can attract Lin Daoqiu's attention, it may get a lot of money in terms of schedule.

preferential treatment.

At present, Golden Harvest and New Oriental have formed a joint theater chain. If "Money Makes Trouble" can get a good schedule, it may have a box office of over 10 million.

You must know that there are only a few people in Hong Kong who can make movies with a box office of over 10 million yuan. If you can be one of them, you will not have to beg your grandfather and grandma to solicit investment when making movies in the future.

"Don't worry about this for now. I want to ask you a few questions. You can answer me how you think."

Huang Zhongbiao didn't understand what John Woo was going to do, but he still nodded.

"Do you think the movie "Money Makes Trouble" will get Mr. Lin's attention?"

Huang Zhongbiao could answer John Woo directly without even thinking about this question.

"Although Mr. Lin invested in this movie, I'm afraid he only nodded because of Uncle Jiu's sake. Even though Mr. Lin gave you one million in production fees, compared with others, "Money Makes Trouble" can only

It is a small production, how could Mr. Lin pay attention to such a movie."

And there is one thing that Huang Zhongbiao has not yet said: No matter how he thinks "Money Makes Trouble" is not a movie that can be a big hit, it will be very good if it sells two to three million in the end.

Although Huang Zhongbiao's words may sound a bit harsh, they are true, so John Woo has nothing to refute.

"You are right, but if Zhong Chuhong becomes the heroine of my drama, guess whether Mr. Lin will pay attention to my drama."

As soon as John Woo finished speaking, Huang Zhongbiao opened his eyes and immediately understood why he did this.

If John Woo really invites Chung Chu Hong to star in "Money Makes Trouble", then it will be difficult for Lin Daoqiu not to pay attention to this drama.

"If you can really invite Miss Zhong to be the heroine, maybe you can get some accommodations in terms of schedule."

Huang Zhongbiao didn't expect that John Woo could come up with such a clever plan. He was simply too smart.

"You think I'm just like you, always with all those messy things in my mind."

John Woo directly gave the other party a roll of his eyes.

But having said that, it is not a simple matter to invite Zhong Chuhong, and he cannot come forward in this matter, so he has to think of a complete strategy.

…………

"You want to ask the heroine of "Mr. Zombie" to be the heroine of your drama?"

John Woo and Huang Zhongbiao suddenly visited Lin Zhengying's film company, and the purpose of their trip was to ask Lin Zhengying for help and invite Zhong Chuhong to play the heroine of the drama "Money Makes Trouble".

"Yes, Abiao and I both feel that Miss Zhong is very suitable for the heroine of our drama, so we would like to ask Uncle Jiu for help."

After Wu Yusen finished speaking, he immediately turned his head and glanced at Huang Zhongbiao next to him.

When John Woo saw this, Huang Zhongbiao quickly nodded.

Lin Zhengying did not expect that John Woo would suddenly come to him and make this request to him.

If it were someone else, it would be easy to say, but the relationship between Zhong Chuhong and Lin Daoqiu is not ordinary.

Maybe others don't know, but Lin Zhengying still knows something.

When filming "Mr. Zombie" before, Lin Zhengying saw Lin Daoqiu coming to pick up Zhong Chuhong several times, so the relationship between the two of them can be understood at a glance.

"Please find someone else, Miss Zhong is not suitable."

Lin Zhengying didn't know how to talk to Lin Daoqiu about this. Unless he encountered something absolutely unavoidable, Lin Zhengying could still avoid it.

"Uncle Jiu, A Biao and I both agree that Miss Zhong is very suitable for the heroine of this play. A Biao, are you right?"

If John Woo had come to see Lin Zhengying himself, he might not know what to say if the other party rejected him like this. But now that he has roped in Huang Zhongbiao, he can easily find an excuse.

"That's for sure. Miss Zhong is so photogenic and so beautiful. If she comes to star in our drama, the box office will be at least five million."

Huang Zhongbiao is obviously talking nonsense. Now Zhong Chuhong has no box office appeal at all. She has only acted in one movie so far. It is already amazing that the audience can recognize her name.

But the problem now is that Zhong Chuhong is different from other female celebrities. Lin Zhengying cannot invite her if she wants. He must ask Lin Daoqiu for instructions.

"If Miss Zhong can be hired for this drama, will it really be a big hit at the box office?"

Lin Zhengying didn't know what John Woo and the others were thinking at all. He simply made judgments based on what the other party said.

And although this drama is a work by John Woo, it still belongs to Lin Zhengying's film company. If this drama can have a good box office by then, Lin Zhengying is willing to help them.

"I can't guarantee 100%, but if Miss Zhong participates in this play, I think it will definitely attract a lot of audiences. Otherwise, we won't trouble Uncle Jiu."

After hearing what John Woo said, Lin Zhengying just nodded slightly, not sure whether he agreed or had other ideas.

"You go back first, I will give you an answer in a few days."

Lin Zhengying still had to ask Lin Daoqiu for his opinion on this matter. If the other party didn't nod, then there would be no need to even think about it.

The next day, Lin Zhengying took Zhong Fa to Lin Daoqiu's office again.

When he heard that Lin Zhengying and the others were coming to see him, Lin Daoqiu thought at first that they were coming to talk to him about a new drama.

But not long after Lin Zhengying and Zhong Fa sat down, the two guys suddenly brought the topic to "Mr. Zombie". To be precise, they kept praising Zhong Chuhong.

"Mr. Lin made the wisest choice when he asked Miss Zhong to play the heroine. If it were us, we would definitely not be able to find such a good actress."

Compared to Lin Zhengying, Zhong Fa was obviously more slippery and spoke without thinking. It seemed that this guy had already thought about what he wanted to say to him before he came.

Although he found it strange, Lin Daoqiu remained calm. He just pretended to know nothing and smiled and talked nonsense with them. He wanted to see what these two guys wanted to do today.
