Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

"If Lin Daoqiu looks for Aaron like this, our play will be delayed for a long time."

Speaking of the drama "Police Story", Jiahe is considered the biggest loser.

Because Jackie Chan was rushing to shoot a new movie in Golden Harvest, and now he was suddenly asked by Lin Daoqiu to shoot "Police Story", the progress of the previous movie suddenly came to a halt.

And I heard that the filming of "Police Story" took at least almost a year, which is equivalent to Lin Daoqiu borrowing Jackie Chan's time for a year in vain.

This time Jiahe can be said to have suffered a huge loss.

"At the beginning, I was wondering how Lin Daoqiu could be so generous. It turned out that he had this idea in mind."

The reason why He Guanchang was able to invite Sammo Hung to come back to film the sequel to "The Five Lucky Stars" was entirely because Lin Daoqiu said that the artists under the three major theater chains should communicate with each other.

He Guanchang originally thought that they had taken advantage of Lin Daoqiu, but now he discovered that not only did they not take advantage, but they seemed to have suffered a bit.

"Okay, we first borrowed Sanmao to come back for filming. What can we say if Lin Daoqiu wants to borrow Aaron at this time? Shouldn't Aaron be allowed to act in "Police Story"?"

Zou Wenhuai believes that even if Jackie Chan is unable to star in Lin Daoqiu's drama "Police Story", the other party will be able to find someone to replace Jackie Chan.

"Looking at the best, Lin Daoqiu's drama has given Aaron another chance to expand his acting career. At least he won't have to shoot those Kung Fu comedies from the early Republic of China. If this model can be successful, we will be the ones who benefit in the end."

Now Zou Wenhuai can only think like this, only in this way will he feel a little more comfortable.

"Why don't we take a guess at how much the play will sell for?"

At this time, Zou Wenhuai suddenly became very interested in the box office performance of the drama "Police Story".

When He Guanchang heard the other party's question, he put his chin on his hand and began to think seriously.

During this year's Spring Festival, the Xu brothers' "Modern Bodyguard" has already exceeded 30 million at the box office, and it almost reached 40 million.

Judging from Lin Daoqiu's ability, and considering that the three theater chains have been integrated, I am afraid that the final box office may exceed 40 million.

"Based on Lin Daoqiu's level, I think 30 million should be no problem. It just depends on whether we can break through 40 million."

He Guanchang's prediction is still very cautious. After all, over the years, the box office of Lin Daoqiu's movies has reached record highs, and this time he personally served as the producer and screenwriter.

Even though He Guanchang is a little dissatisfied with Lin Daoqiu, he still feels that the box office of "Police Story" will be a big hit by then. It depends on whether it can break through the 40 million mark.

"Now the Xiangjiang film market is getting better and better. If we had not had trouble with Sanmao and the others, we would have been the best with the strength we have now."

It's actually too late to say this now. Sanmao and Yuan Biao have already joined Lin Daoqiu's command.

And looking at Yuan Biao's attitude, it's basically impossible for him to come back and help Jiahe film for a while.

The only thing to blame is that they ruined their good hand in the first place.

"Ah Hong, after Fu Sheng falls down, you can go over and tell him..."

At the filming scene of "The Bad Luck Gambler", Wang Jing was instructing Zhong Chuhong on how to act next.

It has been a while since the filming of this drama started, and speaking of it, the filming progress is going very quickly. After all, with director Wang Jing here, it is impossible to slow down the speed.

For Wang Jing, the word "strive for excellence" is certainly a good word, but it is not suitable for him.

Usually when we are on the shooting set, everyone is laughing and joking and seems to be having a very happy time.

"I think this drama will be finished in less than a month."

On this day, Lin Daoqiu made a special trip to visit Zhong Chuhong's class. At this time, he and Wen Jun were discussing the filming progress of this drama.

For a comedy film with few requirements, Lin Daoqiu actually didn't expect much box office success from the beginning.

He just wanted to see what kind of box office this movie, which would later be called a bad movie, would get if it were made at this time.

"This is also because Brother Qiu had a good idea, and we completed the entire script with just a few modifications."

Wen Jun started to flatter Lin Daoqiu. At first, Lin Daoqiu just briefly talked about the plot of the play, which was just a very simple main line.

Wang Jing and Wen Jun need to add specific plots and jokes based on the main line given by Lin Daoqiu.

Fortunately, for them, this was not a difficult task. It took the three of them less than three days to complete the entire plot of the play.

At that time, Lin Daoqiu didn't say anything after reading the script, because after the transformation of the three of them, this "Unlucky Gambler" and the previous movie "Gambler 2002" are no longer the same movie.

"You praise me too much. I'm just giving you an idea. This drama is still your own credit. Don't put money in my face. Only by making this drama well can you be honest."

Lin Daoqiu didn't even listen to Wen Jun's flattery. If he had the time, he might as well think about how to make this drama better.

"Mr. Lin, screenwriter..."

Just when Lin Daoqiu and Wen Juan were discussing things, a woman's voice suddenly came from behind them.

Lin Daoqiu and Wen Juan looked back and saw Guan Zhilin standing behind them, looking at them with a smile.

Wen Juan's eyes were immediately attracted by Guan Zhilin. Seeing such a beautiful woman at such a close distance made him blush, his heart beat faster, and he couldn't say a word.

However, Lin Daoqiu is much better than Wen Juan, and he is not as gaffey as him.

"Has Miss Guan's filming started so early?"

Lin Daoqiu remembered that Guan Zhilin's appearance should be at the back, so why did she start filming so early?

"No, I just didn't have work today, so I came to the set to study."

Guan Zhilin smiled and shook her head, her big innocent eyes staring straight at Lin Daoqiu.

"I didn't expect Miss Guan to be so hard-working. It seems that it will be difficult for this drama not to be a hit or not."

Lin Daoqiu didn't believe that Guan Zhilin was so diligent and would go all the way to study on site. Maybe someone tipped off Guan Zhilin, so she came all the way.

"I'm not the heroine of this drama, so even if it does become a hit, it won't have much to do with me."

Wen Juan really couldn't stand it anymore, and he also knew that Guan Zhilin came to see Lin Daoqiu, so he immediately made an excuse and ran away.

After Wen Juan left, Guan Zhilin slowly walked to Lin Daoqiu and stood next to her.

"Speaking of which, I really envy Miss Zhong."

Guan Zhilin suddenly turned the topic to Zhong Chuhong.

"Why do you say that?"

Lin Daoqiu asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Because there are always people who are thinking about her. Unlike me, my parents left for a foreign land and I stayed alone in Xiangjiang with no one to love or care for me."
