Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Looking at Sammo Hung's stunned expression, Lin Daoqiu could more or less guess what he was thinking.

It took more than a month, including post-production, to go to Neon for filming.

For Sammo Hung, this is simply an impossible task.

"Mr. Lin, if I go to Neon to take pictures, I'm worried that I won't have enough time by then."

Yuan Biao still expressed his worries.

If Lin Daoqiu doesn't plan to have this drama released during the Spring Festival, then it doesn't matter where it is filmed.

But the problem now is that it is not easy to prepare so many things in such a short period of time.

"I will be responsible for the coordination over Neon. All you have to do is concentrate on filming the movie. You can leave everything else to me."

Lin Daoqiu continued: "This time I will serve as the producer, screenwriter and director of this drama, and let Sanmao be the director."

Neither Sammo Hung nor Yuen Biao would have any objections to Lin Daoqiu's decision.

But now there is still a thorny problem, that is, the copyright of "Five Lucky Stars" is still in the hands of Jiahe.

If we just go to shoot without reaching an agreement, the two families may start to have a war of words.

"Now go to Jiahe to find Mr. Zou and say that you want to buy the copyright of the entire drama. If he doesn't agree, you will buy the license for the sequel instead."

The former owns the copyright for the entire drama "Five Lucky Stars", while the latter can only film this one.

Although Lin Daoqiu couldn't guess what Zou Wenhuai would choose, he believed that if the other party was not confused, he would definitely sell it.

"Okay Mr. Lin, I'll go to Jiahe right now."

Sammo Hung knew that time waited for no one. After he finished speaking, he stood up directly and left Lin Daoqiu's office with Yuan Biao.

…………

When Sammo Hung came to Jiahe Company, Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang and others were discussing things.

When they heard the secretary come in and announce that Sammo Hung was visiting, both Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang's faces were full of shock.

"Quick...please please."

When Sammo Hung was in Jiahe, Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang didn't quite understand how valuable he was.

However, after Sammo Hung left Jiahe, they realized that this fat man was as important to Jiahe as Jackie Chan and Xu Guanwen.

But it's a pity that it's hard to recover. He has surrendered to Lin Daoqiu, and it is almost impossible to lure him back.

"Mr. Zou, Mr. He, good morning."

After Sammo Hung entered the door, he looked well-behaved and greeted everyone in the room.

"Long time no see Sanmao, come on, please sit down."

Zou Wenhuai didn't know when he had left his seat and was standing not far from the door, waiting for Sammo Hung.

Regarding Sammo Hung, Zou Wenhuai still thought that one day he could bring him back to Jiahe.

"Sanmao, I heard that you went to Hollywood to film. I wonder how it went?"

He Guanchang did not know what happened to Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao in Hollywood.

However, not many people knew about it, and Lin Daoqiu didn't tell it everywhere. Naturally, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao didn't want others to know.

"Thank you Mr. He for your concern. The Hollywood movie has been filmed, but A Biao and I still feel that it is hard to leave our hometown, so we plan to come back and continue our development."

Sammo Hung didn't mention much about Hollywood, but He Guanchang has been in the film industry for so many years, and he could smell something about Sammo Hung's words.

"Sanmao, you are right to think so. As long as we develop well in Hong Kong, it will be easier to go to Hollywood."

Speaking of which, Bruce Lee also became famous all over the world from Hong Kong, but unfortunately his film career was too short.

But for Golden Harvest, the good news now is that Jackie Chan has received the script from Lin Daoqiu. Once he rises in Hollywood, he will naturally be able to take over Bruce Lee's mantle.

But even so, Jiahe cannot be careless in Xiangjiang. They still have to stabilize their basic base.

"Mr. Zou, actually I came here today to discuss something with you."

After Zou Wenhuai returned to his seat and sat down, Sammo Hung told him the reason for his visit.

"Sanmao, we are all on our own. If you have anything to say, just say it. I will do my best to help you if I can."

Zou Wenhuai answered Sammo Hung directly without thinking.

But he actually couldn't guess that Sammo Hung suddenly came over to him to discuss something.

Logically speaking, Lin Daoqiu's side requires money, resources, and scripts.

Zou Wenhuai really couldn't figure out what Sammo Hung saw in them.

"Actually, it's like this. I came here today to buy the copyright of "Five Lucky Stars"."

As soon as Sammo Hung finished speaking, Zou Wenhuai's eyelids suddenly trembled, and He Guanchang on the other side also looked very surprised.

The well-deserved protagonist of "The Five Lucky Stars" is Sammo Hung.

It is not difficult to understand that he wants to buy the rights to this drama.

However, Zou Wenhuai did not believe that Sammo Hung was willing to spend so much money to buy the copyright of this drama.

When they bought it, they spent a total of 20 million Hong Kong dollars.

If Sammo Hung wanted to buy it now, no matter what, he would have to start with at least 30 million.

"Sanmao, actually if you want to take pictures, you can cooperate with Jiahe. Just like last time, we will provide all the funds."

Of course, Zou Wenhuai didn't want to sell the copyright of "Five Lucky Stars" to Sammo Hung.

After all, the box office of this drama not only sold well in Hong Kong, but also brought them considerable profits when it was sold out of the country.

"Mr. Zou, thank you very much for your appreciation, but you should also know that I would never dare to agree without that person's consent."

The person Sammo Hung was talking about was naturally Lin Daoqiu.

The reason they were able to cooperate last time was all because of Lin Daoqiu's nod.

It is almost impossible for Zou Wenhuai to get Lin Daoqiu to nod now. How could he ask Sammo Hung to help Jiahe in the filming without seeing that the two families were fighting in the ring.

"Sanmao, we won't sell the copyright of this drama. I'm afraid your trip today will be in vain."

Zou Wenhuai never thought about selling the copyright of "The Five Lucky Stars" to Sammo Hung.

Hearing what Zou Wenhuai said, Sammo Hung didn't seem discouraged, because he had already guessed that the other party would say this.

"Mr. Zou, what if I buy it once instead?"

Zou Wenhuai didn't seem to quite understand what Sammo Hung meant, and his face looked full of question marks.

"What Sanmao means is that you plan to spend money to buy the right to shoot once?"

It seems that He Guanchang has understood what Sammo Hung meant.

Just as He Guanchang finished speaking, Sammo Hung opposite him nodded vigorously.
