Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

"Probably not. Mr. Lin's ability to write scripts is better than mine."

As soon as Wang Tiancheng finished speaking, Gu Long shook his head and rejected his conjecture.

If Lin Daoqiu wanted to invite him to New Oriental, he would never wait until now.

And based on Gu Long’s understanding of Lin Daoqiu, he is a very powerful screenwriter himself.

Although I am good at writing novels, if they are made into film and television dramas, they will not be as good as those scripts written by Lin Daoqiu.

And even if Lin Daoqiu really needed a script, he wouldn't invite himself over.

He has so many novels, he can just take those novels and adapt them, there is no need to invite him over.

When Wang Tiancheng heard this, he felt that what Gu Long said made sense, so he did not continue to guess.

Since Lin Daoqiu was the host, he arrived at the restaurant first. After ordering the dishes, he drank tea in the private room and waited for Gu Long and the others.

The waiter brought Gu Long and Wang Tiancheng to Lin Daoqiu's box.

As soon as they entered the door, Lin Daoqiu immediately stood up from his chair.

"Long time no see, Mr. Gu Long is still as charming as ever."

As soon as Lin Daoqiu saw Gu Long entering the door, he immediately stepped forward and shook hands with him.

After a while of greetings, Lin Daoqiu invited Gu Long and Wang Tiancheng to sit down.

"Mr. Lin didn't come all the way from Xiangjiang to treat me to dinner, right?"

After Gu Long sat down, he first asked jokingly. He didn't even think that Lin Daoqiu came all the way from Xiangjiang to find him.

He felt that Lin Daoqiu came to Baodao because he had something to deal with, and he just wanted to treat him to a meal.

But what Gu Long didn't expect was that Lin Daoqiu nodded directly and admitted.

"You're right. I took a flight to Beishi very early in the morning. As soon as I arrived at the hotel, I called you right away."

Lin Daoqiu made a special trip to see Gu Long, so he wanted to get this matter settled as soon as possible.

I just didn't expect that when he was on the phone, Gu Long hadn't gotten up yet and the others were still sleeping.

Wang Tiancheng next to him had no chance to interrupt, so he could only lower his head and drink tea.

"Mr. Lin, are you so anxious to find me? Is there something urgent? Do you need to make such a special trip?"

Gu Long couldn't understand. If Lin Daoqiu really wanted to see him for something urgent, he could just make a phone call. Why would he make such a special trip?

After all, the other party is also the big boss of a film company, so he probably has a lot of things on his hands every day.

If he can make a special trip to the treasure island to find him, I'm afraid this matter that he needs to help with will not be a trivial matter.

"Actually, the thing is like this, I came up with a story, but my skills are too weak and I can't write anything good at all, so I thought of Mr. Gu Long."

Lin Daoqiu kept looking at Gu Long when he was talking. After he finished speaking, he smiled at Gu Long.

After hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Gu Long finally understood why he made a special trip to Treasure Island to find him.

If Lin Daoqiu had talked about this matter on the phone, he would probably not have agreed, because the manuscript in his hand had been reserved for decades.

He can't finish all the manuscripts he has now, so how can he still have time to help others write manuscripts?

However, Lin Daoqiu made this special trip. It could be said that he had given himself enough face. At least he had to reject him in person. In this case, Gu Long really couldn't say it.

"Did you bring the outline? Show it to me."

Gu Long neither agreed nor refused, he just said he wanted to read the manuscript first.

He was just curious about what kind of script a famous screenwriter like Lin Daoqiu could write.

Lin Daoqiu carried the manuscript with him. As soon as the other party finished speaking, he immediately handed the outline he had written from his bag into Gu Long's hands.

After taking Lin Daoqiu's manuscript, Gu Long poured himself a glass of wine, and then drank while reading the manuscript.

Wang Tiancheng was very curious about the manuscript written by Lin Daoqiu, but he would not read it casually without the other party's permission.

After more than ten minutes, Gu Long put down Lin Daoqiu's manuscript.

"This story is very ordinary."

According to the outline given by Lin Daoqiu, if Gu Long could give such an evaluation, it would be considered as giving him face.

If it were anyone else, Gu Long might not even have the desire to look at it.

Lin Daoqiu himself never thought that after reading the outline of "Legend of Sword and Fairy", Gu Long would be so shocked that he was a god, and then bowed his head and bowed.

After all, how could someone as proud as Gu Long admire others so easily?

Not to mention that the story of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is actually very ordinary. At least in Lin Daoqiu's outline, the potential of this drama is not visible at all.

Although he was mentally prepared, Lin Daoqiu couldn't help but feel his heart sink after hearing Gu Long's answer.

"It's you, Mr. Lin, who dared to write such a story to me. If it had been anyone else, I would have kicked him out a long time ago."

Gu Long was not particularly polite to him because the other party was Lin Daoqiu. He still said whatever he wanted to say.

After Gu Long finished speaking, Lin Daoqiu thought that the other party had declined his request.

But it's normal to think about it. After all, how could a martial arts master like Gu Long easily help others write books?

And just when Lin Daoqiu thought that this matter was completely over, Gu Long suddenly changed the subject.

"Although I can't help you write it, I can recommend you a person whose style is very similar to mine."

Lin Daoqiu, who originally thought there was no chance, was so surprised that he raised his head when he heard Gu Long agreed.

Hearing what Gu Long said, Lin Daoqiu was very curious and didn't know who he wanted to recommend to him.

After all, from Jin Yong to Gu Long, and then Liang Yusheng, Lin Daoqiu has thought about all these martial arts novels.

However, in his opinion, the most suitable person to write "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" is Gu Long.

But now the other party actually said that he would recommend someone to him, and his style is very similar to him.

Lin Daoqiu had never heard of anyone whose style was similar to Gu Long's.

So when Gu Long said this, Lin Daoqiu immediately felt very curious.

"This man's name is Huang Ying. He is now working as a screenwriter at ATV in Hong Kong, and he is actually also a writer."

Lin Daoqiu had the impression that he didn't know this Huang Ying that Gu Long was talking about.

But in fact, this Huang Ying has written movies such as "The Transformation of the Silkworm" and "The Hero Shen Shengyi" before.

It's just that Lin Daoqiu didn't pay much attention to ATV, so he didn't have much impression of Huang Ying.

However, since the other person was recommended by Gu Long, Lin Daoqiu felt that the writer named Huang Ying should not be much worse at his level.

Thinking of this, Lin Daoqiu decided to give it a try first. After all, if there is no way to hire Gu Long now, if someone can help him write this "Legend of Sword and Fairy", it would be considered a great success for him. acceptable results.
