Siheyuan: Start as a truck driver

When Wang Weidong came to the set, Xu Guanwen was personally giving a demonstration to the two brothers.

In the early days of Xu's films, brothers always worked together, and even Xu Guanwu, the man behind the scenes, often showed his face.

When he heard the assistant say that the big boss was coming, Xu Guanwen immediately put down what he was doing and came over to greet him.

No one can be neglected by the sponsor, otherwise no one will invest in him in the future.

"Director Xu, let me introduce to you. This is my brother-in-law Wang Weidong. He wrote the scripts of "Shanghai Bund" and "Huo Yuanjia", and he also composed the theme songs himself. Even the animated version of "Shanghai" we produced some time ago

"Journey to the West" was also spearheaded by him."

After listening to Li Yuanchao's introduction, Xu Guanwen looked at Wang Weidong as if he were looking at a god.

Ordinary viewers don't pay attention to the people behind the scenes when watching TV series or movies, but these people are different.

Whenever there is a hit, the workers behind the scenes will always pay attention to the creative team.

When Li Yuanchao asked Wang Weidong what pseudonym he used, Wang Weidong directly used the word "anonymous".

People outside have been looking for this almighty god.

That's why Xu Guanwen was so surprised when he heard that Wang Weidong was this great god.

The main reason is that Wang Weidong is too young. It is hard to imagine that a person of this age can have superb attainments in several different industries.

"Li Sheng, I have heard about his name for a long time, but today I finally met him in person."

Wang Weidong could tell that Xu Guanwen was really excited. Wang Weidong was quite happy to have a future film industry boss as a fan.

He smiled and said, "I have watched Mr. Xu's movies before, and at that time I thought it would be a pity for a talent like Mr. Xu not to make comedies."

Xu Guanwen scratched his head. His famous work was "The Warlord" directed by Li Hanxiang, but the filming process was not very pleasant.

Mainly because Xu Guanwen was only thinking about being a news host at the time, so he was already very aggrieved when he was assigned to do a comedy show.

And that movie "Warlords" was still a romance film, with many large-scale scenes in it.

How could he endure this?

Director Li Da was a loyal fan of his show, so he decided to make Xu Guanwen the protagonist of his new film.

The big boss of Shaw Brothers is one of the founders of TVB, and TVB artists all sign prostitution contracts. As soon as he opened his mouth, Xu Guanwen had no choice at all. In the end, he had no choice but to accept his fate and go make movies obediently.

Later, Xu Guanwen specially made a movie to satirize the matter of the contract of prostitution, and the person who stole the contract was also a real person.

But that person was not Xu Guanwen, but a certain elder named Wang.

If someone else mentioned this movie, Xu Guanwen would definitely not give it a good look.

But the person in front of him is his sponsor. If he offends someone and cuts off his funds, all his efforts during this period will be in vain.

So he could only use the excuse of introducing his brother to broach the subject.

The four heroic brothers, civil and military, stood together, which made Wang Weidong a little confused. These four brothers had a great influence on the Hong Kong entertainment industry. When Bruce Lee was at his most prosperous, the only film that could compare with him was produced by the Hui brothers.

After getting to know each other, Wang Weidong asked them to return to work, while he and Li Yuanchao watched from the side.

Except for those of Li Hanxiang's generation, the filming of Hong Kong films has always been rough. They mainly focus on stories and ignore other things.

It is natural that it will decline later on, because the cost is low, the same actors come and go, and the audience will always feel fatigued.

After staying on the set for more than an hour, Wang Weidong and Li Yuanchao left.

The two returned to DreamWorks. Li Yuanchao took Wang Weidong around and introduced him to the current development of various departments.

To describe DreamWorks at this time as full of talents is not wrong at all.

With Wang Weidong's instructions, Li Yuanchao has poached all the talents who have not yet made their fortunes in recent years.

Special instructors were also hired to provide training for them.

Apart from anything else, when it comes to actors, there is probably no company in the entire Hong Kong city that is stronger than DreamWorks.

What Wang Weidong pays more attention to is the special effects department. Today's computer technology is not yet mature, so all the methods are used.

But if you use local methods well, you can still achieve success. The central version of "Journey to the West" is the best example. The special effects in it are basically all created using local methods.

There is also the props department, which Wang Weidong also attaches great importance to. If he wants to sell the film, he must pay attention to the details.

When the time is right, Wang Weidong feels that the Star Wars series, Terminator series and Jurassic series can be brought over.

Anyway, even if these movies are starring Chinese actors, it will not affect the plot advancement of the movies at all.

After telling Li Yuanchao a few things to pay attention to, Wang Weidong left DreamWorks first. As for Li Yuanchao, he had to stay and handle the work.

As a general manager, he has a lot to do!

"Daddy, do you know how to play? Otherwise, let me do it. You've been working here for half the day!"

Hearing his son's urging, Wang Weidong, who was already sweating profusely, became even more anxious.

But the Rubik's Cube in my hand always falls short of the last few steps.

If I had known earlier, I would not have been bragging in front of my son, but now I have shot myself in the foot, which is a huge embarrassment.

After struggling like this for a long time, Wang Weidong finally restored the Rubik's Cube, but it was much later than the previously scheduled time.

"Look, isn't this done!"

Wang Ruiwen looked at his father with disdain. How could the little guy not see that he was trying to make a fool of himself?

"Daddy, you are too slow!"

"I don't call it slow, I call it cautious. Son, twisting a Rubik's Cube is just like being a human being. If you make a wrong step, you will have to take many more steps, which will waste not only energy but also time."

Faced with Wang Weidong's education, Wang Ruiwen just curled his lips.

It’s not just a matter of a day or two for Dad to be tough-talking. No matter what it is, he can always find some nonsense.

While the father and son were talking, Lou Xiaoe came back from outside.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wang Weidong looked at the clock hanging on the wall, shook his head and said: "You, let go of the power that should be given, don't make yourself so tired, it's night now

It’s almost ten o’clock. If you do this every day, your body won’t be able to withstand it.”

Lou Xiao'e smiled and said: "I'm not worried, and there are some things that I really need to handle personally."

"Okay, I can't tell you whether you're hungry or not, I'll feed you."

"No, I'm trying to lose weight. It's better to eat as little as possible at night."

"You have a figure like yours and you still need to lose weight?"

Wang Ruiwen stared blankly at Zheng Huan's parents who were chatting with each other. He was very confused. When daddy or mommy were alone, he was the absolute center. How come they got together and he became an outsider?

Before the little guy could figure it out, he was urged to sleep by Wang Weidong and Lou Xiao'e.

As for Wang Ruiwen's offer to sleep with them, they were ignored by the two of them.

Just kidding, how can this rare time to get together be messed up by this troll?

The few fitness postures Lou Xiaoe learned have not yet been fully demonstrated to Wang Weidong, so she will naturally continue to study them tonight.

****

The next day, the weather was clear and sunny, and it was a good day to travel.

After signing in and receiving a few mediocre daily necessities, Wang Weidong directly turned off the system.

After washing up, I went downstairs.

Then he saw that his youngest son was fully dressed and carrying a small schoolbag, looking ready to go.

Seeing Wang Weidong coming down from upstairs, the little guy's eyes lit up and he immediately walked over holding the breakfast on the table.

"Daddy, I have prepared breakfast for you. You can eat it quickly."

After finishing speaking, Wang Ruiwen looked at Wang Weidong eagerly, as if he planned to watch him finish the food.

Several black lines appeared on Wang Weidong's forehead. How could he not know what Wang Ruiwen was thinking?

I just wanted him to finish breakfast quickly so that he could leave early.

But it was rare for this boy to be so attentive, so Wang Weidong would not be polite to him, and said: "Put it on the table, I will eat it later, and you go get my shoes."

"Okay!" Wang Ruiwen responded and ran to get his shoes.

After a while, he came back with a pair of shiny leather shoes and said with a shy smile: "Daddy, I have polished your shoes for you."

Wang Weidong laughed dumbly, nodded Wang Ruiwen's head and said: "You little sycophant, all right, go hurry your mother, I'll finish breakfast, and then we'll set off."

When Wang Ruiwen heard this, he immediately ran to find Lou Xiao'e.

After a while, the mother and son came downstairs holding hands.

Today, Lou Xiao'e wore a floral dress that highlighted her figure. She and Wang Ruiwen were well-maintained and looked more like siblings than mother and son.

Wang Weidong had already finished his breakfast, stood up and shouted: "Let's go!"

"Okay!" Wang Ruiwen cheered immediately.

Lou Bancheng and his wife had taken him to the park before, but what Wang Ruiwen was most looking forward to was going with his parents.

Now the dream finally came true.

The father and son took the Punch all the way to Kowloon Park on Austin Road, Tsim Sha Tsui.

This park, which has only been open for a few years, is currently one of the most popular attractions in Hong Kong City.

Fortunately, Wang Weidong and the others did not travel on weekends, so there were not many tourists in the park, otherwise it would have been a crowded scene.

The main attractions in Kowloon Park are exotic flowers and plants and rare birds and animals, which happen to be of interest to children.

Although he is his own son, Wang Weidong still feels that Wang Ruiwen today is just like a bastard - he has given up.

The couple didn't even have time to appreciate the scenery, they just played with Wang Ruiwen.

The children are very energetic. Wang Weidong and Lou Xiao'e both feel a little tired, but Wang Ruiwen already looks full of energy.

It is not easy to spend time with children. Wang Weidong can't even imagine that if one day he travels with all his children, the world will really be in chaos.

Lunch was a bento in the park, and Lou Xiaoe cooked it herself in the morning.

Egg noodles, a few fruits, and Feizhai Happy Water will satisfy a family of three.

The three of them quietly enjoyed this hard-won reunion time.

Whenever he sees the smile on Wang Ruiwen's face, Wang Weidong always feels a little guilty and feels that he has not fulfilled his obligations as a father.

I can only accompany you once or twice a year, and no matter how much material you give me, it can't compensate for it.

But there is no way around this. Wang Weidong can take Wang Ruiwen back to the capital, but what about Lou Xiaoe?

During Wang Weidong's absence, the only person who could accompany her was her son. If his son also left, she would really be alone.

Looking at the mother and son laughing and playing there, Wang Weidong sighed.

When they looked back, the smiles immediately returned to their faces.

On this day, the family of three was exhausted from playing.

Wang Ruiwen even fell asleep on the way home.

Wang Weidong personally carried him back to bed and stayed with him for a while before leaving.

When I returned to Li Yuanchao's villa, this guy happened to be drunk and came back from outside.

Needless to say, he must have wandered outside again, Wang Weidong didn't bother to care about him, left him to the nanny, and went straight back to the room.

A night of silence.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the sudden ringing of the phone woke Wang Weidong from his sleep.

After he was connected, he discovered that it was Li Yuanchao who called him from the inside.

"Brother-in-law, Lao He agreed. He agreed to sell Jiayi to us!" Li Yuanchao sounded very excited.

It would be false to say that I am not excited about owning a TV station. The most important thing is its symbolic meaning.

After Wang Weidong heard this, he suddenly woke up.

"Why so fast?"

"This is because his business in other areas has been squeezed, and now he is in urgent need of some spare money. He is reluctant to sell other properties, so naturally he can only pursue the idea of ​​​​TV stations. And didn't you ask me to poach people before? Come back from us.

Later, I arranged for someone to do it, but I didn't expect that it would be done as soon as I dug it.

The contracts these people signed with Jiayi are relatively loose, and the conditions we offered are so good that they naturally can't refuse, but now that we have successfully acquired Jiayi, the situation of these people is somewhat embarrassing."

Li Yuanchao also had a headache when he said this, mainly because the speed was too fast. He would definitely be able to arrange it if there was a buffer time of one or two months.

Wang Weidong pondered for a while and then suggested: "Just swap them with the employees of DreamWorks. Since Lao He is determined to sell, you should finalize the matter quickly to avoid long nights and dreams."

"Okay, but how should the educational program be organized? There are mandatory requirements for this."

Wang Weidong smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have already prepared it."

Isn’t it easy to create educational programs? Wang Weidong has ready-made ideas in his mind that can be transferred.

These programs are not only suitable for all ages, but can also play a real educational role. At least the next generation born in Hong Kong can understand the deeds of their ancestors and the bad qualities of certain countries, allowing them to understand where their home is.

This is also the reason why Wang Weidong acquired Jiayi regardless of the cost. John Bull only asked for educational programs, but there were no hard and fast regulations on the content of the programs.

Playing their dark history as an educational theme is considered to meet the requirements, right?

After ending the call with Li Yuanchao, Wang Weidong immediately sent a telegram back to the mainland through Runhua's channels. Such a big thing happened, and he must tell his superiors.
