Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

The Kung Fu movie has been decided, but now the question is what to do with the script. Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui originally agreed that they should be responsible for this.

But Lin Daoqiu didn't think so. If Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui were allowed to continue creating a new kung fu movie, I'm afraid they would continue their previous routines, which is not what he wanted to make.

"I have already thought about the general plot of this play." As soon as Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui immediately opened their eyes wide. They did not expect that Lin Daoqiu came up with a script in such a short time.

When they were filming "Fist of the Flying Dragon" before, Feilong also participated in the discussion of the script, but he knew nothing about it. Basically, Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui decided everything by themselves. Feilong only asked that the lines be reduced.

But since Lin Daoqiu was solely responsible for the production of this drama, Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui did not dare to have any opinions and could only fully cooperate with him to make this drama a success.

"I wonder what the name of this movie is?" Zheng Danrui wanted to judge from the name what kind of movie Lin Daoqiu was going to make.

"The name of this play is very simple, it's called "Master Qian"..." Lin Daoqiu didn't think much about the name of the play at all. He just randomly chose the name.

Originally, Lin Daoqiu thought that Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui would raise objections, but unexpectedly, the two people just nodded without saying anything, and seemed to have agreed with the title of the play.

"The protagonist, Mr. Qian, is a boy from a rich family. He has been idle since childhood and likes to cause trouble. His favorite thing is to fight and cause trouble. Originally, he had few opponents in the town until he was defeated by a girl..."

Lin Daoqiu just opened his mouth and came in. The plot of this drama inherited the routine of this era, which is funny, passionate and revengeful. It is not difficult for Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui to understand.

Originally they were worried that the script Lin Daoqiu said would be poor, but after hearing him tell the general plot, the two of them nodded. The ups and downs of the play were very cleverly matched, especially the love-hate relationship between Master Qian and the heroine.

From love and hatred to the end when the two people work together to get rid of the big devil, the whole process can be said to be very exciting.

"I didn't expect Brother Qiu to come up with such a good script after just one night. It's amazing." Although Lin Daoqiu asked them to call themselves A Qiu, after he dictated the script, Wen Juan and Zheng Danrui changed it.

I can't speak anymore.

Wen Jun also nodded quickly and said: "As long as we find a better protagonist for this script, I believe it will definitely win a good box office."

In fact, Lin Daoqiu already had several candidates in mind for the lead role. Suitable candidates include Jackie Chan, Fu Sheng, Wang and Yuan Biao.

Although Jackie Chan is still Luo Wei's man, Wu Siyuan has signed a loan contract with him for two movies, and the schedule cannot be arranged at all, unless Lin Daoqiu is willing to spend a lot of money to hire him, but he doesn't want to do this, and he's not that kind.

Much money.

As for Fu Sheng and Wang Yu, they are both from Shaw Brothers, and they are the pillars of Shaw Brothers. I believe that Uncle Six would not look down on his little money, so there is still Yuan Biao left.

Yuen Biao, who is 21 years old this year, is just a junior working for Sammo Hung. It will be until next year when "The Little Mermaid" is filmed and it takes home 2.8 million at the box office, everyone will realize how much potential Yuen Biao has, but now he has to be cheap first.

Own.

Asking someone who has never been a leading role to star in a movie, and it is also a martial arts movie that he is familiar with, Lin Daoqiu felt that Yuan Biao would not refuse no matter what.

"Brother Qiu? Brother Qiu?" Finding Lin Daoqiu suddenly giggling there, Zheng Danrui quickly stretched out his hand in front of him and shook his head.

Lin Daoqiu, who was startled, suddenly came to his senses. He coughed lightly and then said, "I was just thinking about something."

"Leave the script to us. We can write the script within three days at the earliest." The general framework is already in place. All we need to do is to design some jokes. For these Hong Kong screenwriters, three days is already a long time.

.

Lin Daoqiu was not in a hurry to start filming immediately. He had to go to Feilong first to discuss the filming funding, and he also had to choose other roles, such as the heroine.

As for the photographers and makeup studio photographers, Lin Daoqiu has decided to use the original cast of "Fist of the Flying Dragon". In fact, he is just too lazy to look for them. Anyway, there are already ready-made ones, so why not use them.

Lin Daoqiu made an appointment with Feilong to meet at three o'clock in the afternoon. Lin Daoqiu stood up and said goodbye to the two of them, while Wenjun and Zheng Danrui could not sit down. They were anxious to go back and write the script.

Lin Daoqiu didn't notice that there was a person sitting not far from them who listened to everything they said from beginning to end.

"Mr. He, I'm sorry to keep you waiting..."

He Guanchang, who was thinking about something, was woken up by this voice. He smiled and shook his head: "It doesn't matter. I want to thank you for giving me the opportunity to listen to a good story."

The other party looked at He Guanchang with a puzzled face, not understanding what he meant by this sentence, but He Guanchang did not continue speaking, but changed the topic.

""Master Qian"..." During the conversation, He Guanchang looked at the door of the tea restaurant and whispered the title of the play that Lin Daoqiu had just mentioned.

Unaware that he was being noticed by He Guanchang, Lin Daoqiu had already arrived at the mahjong parlor that he had made an appointment with Feilong.

There were all the guests playing mahjong downstairs. Feilong brought Lin Daoqiu into his lounge to talk.

"Tell me how much money you plan to spend to film this movie." Feilong opened a bottle of soda for Lin Daoqiu and put it in front of him.

Feilong had already spent 200,000 yuan on his last film, and it was definitely a waste. If he had released it, he could have made some money back, but Feilong had completely given up the idea.

The main reason is because of the audience's reputation. If the reputation of this movie is good, then Feilong can hand over the movie to Golden Harvest for distribution, so that it can be released in Golden Harvest Cinemas, and it can also avoid the cost of the package.

.

If most people want to show it in Jiahe Cinema and want to avoid the base fee, they have to name the company under Jiahe's name and become their subsidiary, but Feilong does not need to.

Although he did not have a film and television company, he had face. In Hong Kong at this time, even the upper class would inevitably have to deal with people like them, and He Guanchang and Zou Wenhuai were certainly no exception.

But he can only use this kind of honor once, so he won't waste such a precious opportunity on a bad movie.

"Two hundred thousand." Lin Daoqiu had already thought about it before. This drama, in which even the protagonist is a newcomer, would not cost much at all to shoot.

When Feilong heard that Lin Daoqiu only wanted 200,000 yuan, he was a little surprised. Originally, he thought that the other party would ask for more. Even Feilong himself planned to give Lin Daoqiu 300,000 yuan as filming expenses.

"Is two hundred thousand... enough?" Feilong asked a little uneasily.

"Two hundred thousand is enough. Brother Feilong will only need to be responsible for arranging the screening, and leave the rest to me." Lin Daoqiu doesn't plan to deal with the theater yet, because they are too powerful now, and he

There is absolutely no chance of winning.

"As long as you make the movie well enough, you don't need to worry about the release. I will write a check to you for 200,000 yuan now." Feilong was very generous and took out his checkbook and wrote a check for 200,000 yuan in cash.

Then he handed it to Lin Daoqiu.

After taking the check, Lin Daoqiu raised his head and looked at Feilong. He suddenly asked: "Isn't Brother Feilong afraid that I will turn around and run back to the mainland after taking the money?"

After hearing this, Feilong smiled and shook his head, then said hello to the outside, and immediately two young men walked in from outside.

"From now on, you should stay with Ah Qiu, listen to his orders, and don't let him escape before the movie is finished." Feilong is not a fool. Although he has confidence in Lin Daoqiu, he still has to do what he needs to do.

You still have to take precautions.

Lin Daoqiu didn't seem to have any dissatisfaction with Feilong's approach. Instead, he stood up with a smile and shook hands with the other party, making people really confused as to what he was thinking.
