Chapter 141： Pointing maze

Many filmmakers in Xiangjiang are not very professional.

Many of the movie companies in Xiangjiang hold the idea that they can get away with nothing. They never thought of doing this business for a long time, let alone maintaining the market.

Therefore, they are usually like sharks. Seeing which type of movie makes money, they swarm up and shoot to follow the trend until the series is broken and the audience does not buy it at all.

In history, it was the zombie movie that they created by Hong Jinbao, and it was such a crazy shooting in a few years.

The next is the biographical films of Xiaoxiong, which started in about 85 years, such as Lei Luo, Lan Bo, Li Hao, etc., also because of the rotten film of a swarm of bees.

In the 1990s, gambling was the first to bear the brunt. In just two or three years, more than 30 gambling films were released, and people would have to vomit.

Later ...

The Xiangjiang movie will not have a future.

If it weren't for cheeky and lingering reliance on the mainland market, the Xiangjiang movie was basically finished in about 2000.

The root of all this is not simply the reason for the filmmakers and speculators, but the whole Xiangjiang society and the overall atmosphere of Xiangjiang.

All Xiangjiang people, doing everything (love qíng) are the same as making movies, so movies are the same as their previous toy industry, small electronic goods industry, etc., and they will collapse after their glory. That is normal. It's not normal to not cross.

However, it cannot be said that the Xiangjiang movie cannot be found by even a discerning person.

There are still a lot of people with vision.

The first is Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang, Cai Yongchang and a group of high-level people from Jiahe.

They have always attached great importance to foreign markets, and have been developing towards Hollywood. They have spent a lot of profits for this, and the results have been very general. Therefore, after Cheng Long left, Hong Jinbao, Xu Guanwen and other people no longer prestige, Jiahe finally It is difficult to continue and fall into loneliness.

Then the Wu Siyuan in front of him was also one of them.

It may not be visible in the 1970s and 1980s, but after 2000, he strived to develop towards the mainland, becoming a pivotal figure in the connection between Xiangjiang and the mainland ’s film career. This shows that he has a very long-term Eyes, and filmmakers with superb skills.

Wu Siyuan in the previous life, although born from the Shao family (shēn), has always had a good relationship with Zou Wenhuai. Since the 1980s, Siyuan has been the satellite company of Jiahe. He himself also held a post within Jiahe. It is also one of the important reasons why he will go to Hong Jinbao to celebrate the banquet today.

Cheng Long's "Snake-Shaped Hand" released in March this year was produced by Wu Siyuan's Siyuan Company. Cheng Long also borrowed it from Luo Wei. At that time, he was asked to make money and asked Cheng Long to shoot him two films. Now that "Snake-Shaped Hand" has been released, the "Drunken Fist" scheduled at the beginning of next month will make Wu Siyuan look forward to it and have some speculation.

After all, he is not a young man in front of him, nor is this genius who writes a hot script like drinking water. Although he has done his best in "Drunken Fist", it still depends on the market to decide.

Today, there was no Wu Siyuan at the banquet. Except for him, most of the people were from the Seven Little Fortunes. Lin Zhengying also knew Hong Jinbao for more than ten years and is considered to be the most important martial arts coach of the Hongjia class. Can be regarded as his own.

In addition to studying martial arts with his father, Yuan Heping also studied drama with his master for a period of time, which is also called Hong Jinbao's fellow. ——By the way, Cheng Long ’s “Snake-Shaped Hand” became famous, directed by Yuan Heping.

In comparison, Wu Siyuan's relationship is still far away.

But today he watched Cheng Long very (bag) changed his new clothes and prepared to go out, he asked in a casual way, I heard that it was Hong Jinbao who hosted a feast for dinner, and the target of the invitation was the recent explosion of the Xiangjiang TV industry. At the time of Yin Jun, Wu Siyuan immediately moved, and after calling Hong Jinbao, he followed.

He must not be for a meal, but for something else.

Therefore, in the middle of the banquet, while Hong Jinbao was drinking happily with everyone, Wu Siyuan quietly talked to Yin Jun.

After about 9 o'clock, the banquet was gone, Wu Siyuan held Cheng Long who had already drunk a lot of wine.

"Why? Brother Yuan?" Cheng Long was a little drunk, but his alcohol was very good, but he was not drunk.

"Go inside the bathroom and wash your face, then follow me to a place." Wu Siyuan pointed to the restaurant.

At this point, Hong Jinbao and they had all gone. Although Cheng Long had a big mouth, he was not a fool. Knowing that Wu Siyuan must have something very important (love qíng), he kept himself down, and hurried in to wash.

Cheng Long made his debut for so many years and didn't feel red until the beginning of this year. The driving force behind all this was Wu Siyuan, and Wu Siyuan was very good to him. Of course, he was willing to listen to Wu Siyuan.

After a while, Cheng Long, who had washed his face, came out. Although he still had dizziness on his face, he was generally awake.

Wu Siyuan motioned him to follow him, and the two immediately walked into a tea restaurant ten meters away from the Snow Garden Hotel.

Xiangjiang's tea restaurants generally operate late, and some still operate overnight. At 9 o'clock, there are still many people in this tea restaurant.

Wu Siyuan took Cheng Long across the first floor, and on the second floor, there were fewer people here. Cheng Long saw Yin Jun sitting on a side table, drinking slowly (奶 nǎi )tea.

"How is Ajun here?" Cheng Long mumbled.

"I asked him to come over. You will talk less and be smarter, you know?" Wu Siyuan whispered.

"Oh."

After Cheng Long answered, he followed Wu Siyuan and walked towards Yin Jun with a smile.

"Mr. Wu, Long Brother." Yin Jun stood up and greeted with a smile.

"Ajun, sit, sit!" Wu Siyuan was very polite, "I'm older, if you don't dislike, call me Yuanyuan."

"Okay, Brother Yuan."

Yin Jun sat down with them. After the waiter came to order food, Yin Jun said: "Brother Yuan, you come to me to discuss things. If I expected it to be correct, should it be for Brother Long's movie?"

"Yes." Wu Siyuan didn't expect Yin Jun to be so direct, but he wasn't a tweeter. He said cheerfully: "I want Ajun to write a script for Along. What do you think? Rest assured! Yuan! Brother will not treat you wrong, Jiahe will give you 1 million, and I will give you 1 million. "

Yin Jun was stunned. "Don't you only have an appointment with Brother Long for two movies?"

"This can be discussed with Awei. He couldn't find the direction of Along's development before. Now I'm helping him. This thing (love qíng), I believe it is not difficult." Wu Siyuan said with a smile.

"Mr. Luo is not such a good talker, especially Brother Yuan, you don't have this opportunity anymore." Yin Jun said deeply.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"I have all seen the posters of the movie theater. In two weeks, Brother Long's" Drunken Fist "will be released?"

"Yes."

"I don't know what is your estimate of the box office?"

Yin Jun spoke in such a circle, Wu Siyuan was a bit foggy, why did he come here again?

But he still honestly said his guess, "Aron's movie is very good. If there is no accident, I think it should be better than" Snake ", it should reach a high box office of about 4 million."

"In my knowledge, Brother Long is a very promising star, but his path has just gone before." Yin Jun dare not say that it is an international superstar, let alone Cheng Long can get an Oscar for life (life shēn) Achievement Award, otherwise they must think he is crazy, "After Brother Yuan ’s enlightenment and enlightenment, I believe Brother Long has figured out the way he will go in the future. The Cotai Strip.

The box office of "Drunken Fist" will definitely be high, I estimate it should be more than 5 million. If this is really the box office, do you think Mr. Luo will be willing to give Long Brother to you to make you money? And if Brother Long reaches this level, do you think Jiahe will stand idly by? Do n’t forget, they always wanted to find the second Li Xiaolong. Can you compete with Jiahe? "

When Wu Siyuan heard the words, he suddenly realized that what Yin Jun wanted to say was here.

However, Cheng Long listened to "The Second Li Xiaolong", and there was a trace of unnaturalness on his face.

Yin Jun smiled when he saw this, "Brother Long, this is just people's prejudice. Everyone admires Li Xiaolong's achievements, but Li Xiaolong is Li Xiaolong, he has only one. And you are Cheng Long, Cheng Long, who once turned into a big situation ! As long as you go on according to your own ideas, sooner or later you will surpass Li Xiaolong! "

At least Li Xiaolong didn't get Oscar's favor.

Yin Jun added such a sentence in his heart.

Some people say that Cheng Long received the Oscar Lifetime Achievement Award, which is a matter of luck. After the 21st century, the Chinese market has become more and more influential, so Hollywood also kneels towards China ((licktiǎn) tiǎn) Of course, the Oscars are not exempt.

But they don't want to think about it, why is Cheng Long, not someone else? If Cheng Long did not work hard for more than 40 years (日 rì) to film, could Oscar give him a lifetime achievement award?

When Cheng Long heard it, his face suddenly looked better.

He is not well-known yet. What he is most afraid of is what he is regarded as "Li Xiaolong's successor" and "Li Xiaolong second". As a person with a career ambition, he is naturally willing to be Cheng Long first.

Wu Siyuan looked a little ugly.

Recalling what Yin Jun said, of course he understood what Yin Jun meant.

No matter how he thinks about Cheng Long, his relationship with Cheng Long should be this "Drunken Fist".

In the future, even if Cheng Long jumped off Luo Wei's company, he would not come to his Siyuan Film Company. Jiahe would definitely take him away.

Therefore, Yin Juncai said that Wu Siyuan did not have this opportunity.

He worked hard to explore the characteristics of Cheng Long (身 shēn), made a movie for Cheng Longliang (身 shēn), and spent a lot of time to invite Mr. Yuan and Mr. Yuan to help set off Cheng Long. The dragon's "Snake-Shaped Hand" was a great success.

Seeing the popularity of "Snake-Shaped Hand", Wu Siyuan immediately understood that he was in the right direction, and quickly cooperated with Cheng Long to produce such a "Drunken Fist". This "Drunken Fist" Cheng Long had With more room to play, even He Guanchang of Jiahe believes that he is more mature and sublimated than "Snake-Shaped Hand", and gradually has the shadow of a superstar.

Even a big man like He Guanchang ...

Wait a minute!

Wu Siyuan was shocked.

I don't know when it started, He Guanchang went to the studio every three days or even every day to watch the shooting of "Drunken Fist".

If it was before, he still wouldn't think that now hearing Yin Jun say this, this old guy He Guanchang must have been premeditated!

No wonder, no wonder he praised Cheng Long, and he often took Cheng Long to chat and explain to him the details in the movie!

It turns out so!

This old fox!

At the same time Wu Siyuan's heart was suddenly open, but it was a sigh.

Since Jiahe really has this meaning, how can he be a small film company to contend with them?

Thinking of his hard work, but to make a wedding dress for others, Wu Siyuan's heart was filled with anger.

Cheng Long was also scared with sweat at the moment.

He Guanchang had already invited Wu Siyuan to eat several times without knowing it (love qíng) long ago, and it was more or less meaning to solicit.

Especially in this month, He Guanchang has made it clear that he wants to postpone Jiahe, all the liquidated damages are no problem, and he directly gave him a 1 million cash check!

Cheng Long was moved.

After the success of "Snake-Shaped Hand", Wu Siyuan gave him 50,000, and Cheng Longren was simple and honest, and directly gave 50000 to his boss Luo Wei.

Luo Wei was able to do it. He signed Cheng Long and said that he would give him a drama for 3000. Now he has lent Cheng Long to Wu Siyuan and has already received the money. Then Cheng Long earned 50000 and gave it to him Have to give it half?

No, Luo Wei still only gave Cheng Long 3000.

Cheng Long didn't say anything at the time, but he was still uncomfortable.

His contract with Luo Wei expired in 1979, and now it is only about a year.

He is already well-known, but Luo Wei still treats himself like a little babble. Cheng Long is naturally not very happy.

As a result, He Guanchang's 1 million cash cheque gave Cheng Longgui a puzzled heart.

Cheng Long ’s most trusted person is naturally not Luo Wei or Wu Siyuan, but his agent Chen Zhiqiang.

Cheng Long felt that he was hopeless in filming, and ran back to Australia to do other work. Chen Zhiqiang, who was still the manager of Luo Wei Film Company at the time, chased Australia and found him back.

Moreover, the stage name of Cheng Long was also taken by Chen Zhiqiang. Previously, the stage name of Cheng Long was called Yuan Lou, and Yuan Long was his brother Hong Jinbao.

It is precisely because of the difficulties and common ground that Cheng Long regards Chen Zhiqiang as his brother, and Chen Zhiqiang is also his agent, so he will tell him everything.

In this case, Cheng Long told Chen Zhiqiang when he went back. After Chen Zhiqiang heard it, he immediately asked Cheng Long to return the money.

Cheng Long was unwilling, and Chen Zhiqiang said three words to him.

"Would you like to forget Luo Wei's support to you over the past few years and bear a reputation for being ungrateful and leaving?"

"Jiahe's side, digging you out so high, the contract must be more demanding, otherwise how can they make money back?"

"Why don't you wait until you have more results, and then wait for the price to sell? Do you think it is your limit now?"

Hearing this, Cheng Long immediately awakened and returned the money to He Guanchang, which surprised He Guanchang.

But He Guanchang was not angry. Instead, he appreciated Cheng Long more and offered to accept Cheng Long as his son.

Taking He Guanchang's status as the godfather of Cheng Long, it was purely exalted him. With the help of He Guanchang in the future, Cheng Long will naturally develop more smoothly in the movie circle.

Cheng Long is still hesitant about this matter. After all, he knows that He Guanchang is just to recruit him to Jiahe. With Chen Zhiqiang's reminder, he hasn't made a decision yet.

Wu Siyuan came to Yin Jun to write a script for him today. Cheng Long was very happy.

Brother Hong Jinbao had Yin Jun's script, and suddenly jumped from the previous one or two million box office to 5 million box office. Such a genius character can write a script for himself, which is really undesirable.

However, Cheng Long did not expect that Yin Jun not only did not agree to write the script, but also directly stated why he did not write the script, which involved Cheng Long's future.

The key to Cheng Long ’s horror is that Yin Jun ’s analysis is similar to Chen Zhiqiang ’s future path for himself. He has never been in contact with himself before. Why is he so familiar with himself? This is terrible!

Fortunately, Wu Siyuan now has no intention to pay attention to Cheng Long, otherwise he will definitely find that the contact between Cheng Long and Jia He is deeper than he thought.

Wu Siyuan's mind is now full of paste, annoyance, helplessness, despair ... and so on.

"Brother Yuan, I think you don't need to be disappointed." Yin Jun said after a while: "Actually, I think this is a good thing for you."

"Good thing?" Wu Siyuan grinned bitterly.

"It will let you see yourself clearly, so as to find your own direction." Yin Jun said.

"Ok?"

"The ones I said prove that you are not suitable for cultivating celebrities by yourself, and then grow your own film company. After you have a good script, you can invite good celebrities to appear in your own movies, so that everyone can cooperate to make money." For example, Brother Long, you said that you helped him find the right direction (Qing), what movies are there, you ask him to help make a film, he will not disagree? "

"Of course not." Cheng Long said quickly. "Brother Yuan, I am not an ungrateful person. As long as you have a call, I will try my best to help."

"Then, you have a superb vision ~ www.novelhall.com ~ so you can see other people's scripts, invest in it, and cooperate with the director, and everyone will make the movie together, so don't you get rich together again? Yin Jun said, "You are doing this as an investor, not an operator, can you make money and improve your status?"

Wu Siyuan heard that his eyes are getting brighter.

When Yin Jun finished talking, his eyes were shining brightly, obviously he was inspired.

Just like what Yin Jun said, stop from this road, and then look at other roads, maybe it will be wider and straighter, and easier to lead to success?

In fact, after Wu Siyuan didn't recruit Cheng Long in the previous life, he didn't go to failure, because it was at this time that Jiashi collapsed, and he signed the good new supervisor in Jiashi to his company.

The name of this producer is Xu Ke.

Although Xu Ke was recruited by Xinyi City after making two films, Xu Ke still remembered Wu Siyuan very much.

So after he established the studio, he deepened the cooperation with Wu Siyuan, including Li Lianjie's Huang Feihong series, which was basically funded by Wu Siyuan's help, and then personally helped the producer, and finally the two together in the martial arts movie It was a huge success.

This happens to be the same way that Yin Jun and he pointed out.

Wu Siyuan, who does not have a big backing but has excellent eyesight and superb sociable wrists, is suitable for this (set tào) way!

And Yin Jun had nothing to say to him.

If Wu Siyuan has been practicing for a few years, Yin Jun will entrust him to go to the Mainland to carry out the first cultivation and development after the film and television career is completed.

Wu Siyuan, who has rich experience, will surely be able to get enough water for the time being, and he will certainly be able to enter the mainland market for Xiangjiang Films and pave the way for a brighter road! (To be continued.)
