Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

"Mr. Lin is here."

I don't know who said it, and Yuan Biao immediately turned his head.

When he saw Lin Daoqiu and Guo Youhua walking towards their table together, Yuan Biao thought for a moment and decided to pick up his wine glass and stand up first.

"Mr. Lin, Miss Guo, good evening." Yuan Biao asked first.

For some reason, when Lin Daoqiu stood in front of him, Yuan Biao felt more and more guilty, and he didn't even dare to look at him.

If he hadn't been forced to come today as the leading actor, I'm afraid Yuan Biao would have chosen to avoid Lin Daoqiu and not attend the celebration banquet.

Lin Daoqiu smiled and said: "I heard that Mr. Xia's new movie is doing well. When it is released, I will definitely go and support it."

This sentence did not sound inappropriate, but the sensitive Guo Youhua immediately heard that there was something wrong with Lin Daoqiu's words.

Before, he called Yuan Biao, either Brother Biao or A Biao, but he had never called him Mr. Fang Xia.

Don't look at a small title, sometimes it can reflect one person's opinion of another person to a great extent.

Guo Youhua felt that Lin Daoqiu's view of Yuan Biao had changed and he had become distant.

"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Lin. The filming of this movie was pretty good. With the help of my senior brother and the brothers from the Hong Family Class, I believe there should be no problem."

Talking about his new movie, Yuen Biao seems very confident. After all, he is now a leading actor with a box office of over 10 million and a popular star in the Hong Kong film industry.

Although the new drama will definitely not reach the heights of "Master Qian", after all, that is because of the blessing of dual screenings, and his drama can only be released in Golden Harvest Cinema.

But Yuen Biao is confident that his new drama can break the box office record of Golden Harvest Cinema. He has set a goal of 9 million for himself, and not only him, but also Sammo Hung and Ho Guanchang also think so.

They have already decided to take advantage of the popularity of "Master Qian" to quickly film and release the new movie, and then let Yuen Biao establish his position as the number one martial arts star in Hong Kong and succeed Bruce Lee.

"If that's the case, then I'll wait and see."

Seeing Yuan Biao's confident look, Lin Daoqiu was also curious about what exactly they were filming and how strong his confidence was.

At this moment, Lin Daoqiu suddenly noticed two people walking towards them out of the corner of his eye. He turned around and saw a surprised expression on his face at first, but he immediately returned to normal.

"A Biao, congratulations." Jackie Chan came to the celebration banquet with Luo Wei today. As soon as he approached, he immediately greeted Yuan Biao and others with a smile.

"Aaron, when did you come? Come over and have a few drinks with us."

Yuan Biao and Jackie Chan are both members of the Yuan family class. They have been brothers who grew up together and are also members of the Seven Little Fortunes. The relationship between the two is naturally good.

Jackie Chan looked at the fat man standing next to him and seemed to be asking for his opinion.

"Let's say hello to Mr. Lin first." Luo Wei leaned into Jackie Chan's ear and whispered.

If Luo Wei hadn't forced him to come here today, I'm afraid Jackie Chan would rather stay on the set filming than join in the fun.

The first movie Yuan Biao starred in grossed RMB 18.8 million at the box office, but all the movies he had starred in together were not as good as the other movie. This made it difficult for Jackie Chan to accept this fact.

"Mr. Lin, good evening Miss Guo, my name is Jackie Chan. Please take good care of me after we meet for the first time." These were the words Luo Wei had repeatedly told me on the way here.

At this time, Jackie Chan was not as outspoken as he would be in the following years. His current highest-grossing film, "Snake", only took in 2.7 million yuan at the box office, and he simply did not have the confidence to be arrogant in front of Lin Daoqiu.

Guo Youhua smiled and nodded to Jackie Chan. With Lin Daoqiu here, she did not need to socialize with him, and she and Jackie Chan were not familiar with each other.

"Hello, Mr. Fang, I've seen your movie "The Snake" before and it was very good." Lin Daoqiu was not complimenting Jackie Chan, he was telling the truth.

If he hadn't come out of nowhere, this year would have been the year when Jackie Chan officially rose to prominence. "Drunken Master", which will be released in October, will have a box office of 6.7 million in one fell swoop.

But now my butterfly effect has changed everything. Even if Jackie Chan's "Drunken Master" takes 6 million at the box office, it won't make any waves.

Because of the precedent of "Master Qian", people don't think that the box office of 6 million is that great. At most, they only think that he is good.

Even He Guanchang, who had been paying attention to him, now turned to cultivating Yuan Biao instead of preparing to spend a lot of money to sign Jackie Chan from Luo Wei.

Although what Lin Daoqiu said was very sincere, it sounded a bit harsh to Jackie Chan's ears. His "Snake" only had a box office of 2.7 million. Can this be called a good film? I'm afraid he's just being polite.

Just words.

"Hello, Mr. Lin, my name is Luo Wei." When Luo Wei saw Jackie Chan standing there silently, he quickly stepped forward and greeted Lin Daoqiu with a smile.

"Hello, Mr. Luo, please forgive me for my poor hospitality before." Lin Daoqiu did not expect that Luo Wei would take the initiative to come to him.

Most of the people who came to the celebration banquet tonight were surrounding Yuan Biao and the members of the Hong Jiaban. Even the assistant directors Eric Tsang and Zhu Rihong were surrounded by many people, discussing cooperation with them.

But I didn't expect that Luo Wei would actually target him. It seemed that this guy had a pretty good eye, and he was indeed a great talent for discovering Jackie Chan.

"Mr. Lin, you're welcome. If you don't mind, do you have time to chat alone?" Luo Wei came here for only one purpose today. He came specifically to see Lin Daoqiu.

I am afraid that at this time many people in the Hong Kong film industry are studying why "Master Qian" was so successful.

Most people attribute the success to Sammo Hung and his team, but very few people pay attention to the name of producer Lin Daoqiu.

It was only after Huang Xizhao invited Lin Daoqiu to Li's that He Guanchang and Guo Youhua realized that they seemed to have missed a talent.

Luo Wei woke up later than them, but he felt that it was not too late now, because he had inquired carefully about Lin Daoqiu being invited by Li to film a TV series, but he had not heard that he was filming a movie.

Such a good opportunity was seized by him, which made Luo Wei secretly rejoice. If Lin Daoqiu could be a producer for Jackie Chan and make him as famous as Yuan Biao, wouldn't he make a fortune?

.

He took the invitation that should have been thrown into the trash can, and even brought Jackie Chan to the celebration banquet in order to ask Lin Daoqiu to help him with a movie.
