The people from the Great Wall Company looked through the script, and the first thing they saw was an ugly mutated ogre. A huge head, with no hair in the middle of the skull, a pointed head, protruding bones, two blue-purple birthmark-like things hanging on the skull, triangular eyes, one big and one small, and a huge nose taking up one third of the face. , the mouth opens, revealing the sharp teeth like beasts... This is a male, followed by a female, and then a 2-meter-tall child. It turns out to be a family of three. There is a text setting next to it: When Japan occupied Hong Kong, the descendants of the infected biochemical experiment researchers were left behind. They were a brother and sister. They gave birth to a child. He had a certain amount of intelligence and great strength. He accidentally killed a couple. , tasted the taste of human flesh, and became addicted to it, taking pleasure in hunting passers-by... Behind it is also a group of text manuscripts and drawings. The people at the Great Wall were shocked: This kind of setting is considered very popular in Hong Kong, but it turns out that the special one was created by a young man from mainland China, and there are even drawings! This means that what Chen Qi gave him was not just a script, but an almost complete film. He looked at "Dark Invasion" again, the style was similar, both heavy-hitting. "Xiao Chen, what do you mean?" "You know that I have always liked to think wildly. I have read many miscellaneous books. I actually have a lot of similar ideas in my mind, but you also know that the environment in mainland China makes it impossible to realize them.
Secondly, I know a lot about your situation, so I have some ideas. Please forgive me if I am wrong. " Chen Qi paused and said: "The left has almost stagnated in the past few years. Not only has there been no production, but it has also consumed all the funds, resources, reputation, etc. it accumulated before. Now it is in an embarrassing situation and has difficulty in development... What I said is terrible. right?" "Oh, that's true!" The other party sighed. "If the left wants to rise again, it must first produce a few eye-catching films and make money first. Without money, it can't do anything, right?" "We understand this truth, but how can we..." “But we don’t have enough resources and we have no way to start?” "You really know a lot about us. It seems like you've been asking a lot!" The other party suddenly laughed. "Because I admire everything you have done by taking root in Hong Kong, and I hope you can do your best. You are now working on "Shaolin Temple". To be honest, this is a political task and you have to do it. Most of your resources have been dragged into "Shaolin Temple". Director Zhang is slow to make films. You can't do nothing for two years and only produce one "Shaolin Temple". Shaolin Temple" right? So I was thinking, can I make some low-budget, profitable movies? I checked a lot of information, including the information you gave me from Hong Kong, and I found that movies with ghosts and monsters that scare the audience tend to do well. For example, in 1974, you ranked fifth in the box office rankings, with a movie called "The Exorcist" Right? " "Yes, that's right, a classic Hollywood horror film about the Godfather of the West exorcising ghosts." "Oh, you call it a horror movie. Anyway, I tried my best in this direction and came up with these two scripts. There are no big scenes and no big actors. The cost should not be very high. I set the background to be the descendants of Japanese devils. , so the mainland will not object.” Regardless of the fact that this is the so-called "China-Japan honeymoon period", it is all based on the needs of development. In fact, there is no honeymoon at all? Let’s put it this way, during the honeymoon period of the 1980s, domestic anti-Japanese films continued. In other words, from the founding of the People's Republic of China to later generations, anti-Japanese resistance has always been at the top of the main theme. Otherwise, there wouldn’t have been so many people born under the banner of anti-Japanese, but in reality it was a nonsense drama, with Japanese soldiers torn apart by hand, mines hidden in the crotch, steamed buns that could be eaten and used as bombs, and the Eighth Route Army soldiers were all well-dressed and equipped better than the Japanese soldiers. all good…… "Of course, this is just my family's opinion. I am young and have little experience. If there is any nonsense, please don't mind." "No, no, you are absolutely right!" At this moment, the people on the Great Wall are extremely complicated. How they hoped to get some support from the mainland, but in the end, it turned out to be a little-known screenwriter who actually gave two scripts.
This matter is very simple to say. After the reform, the mainland's policy towards Hong Kong will become "elite united front". What does that mean? It is to win over celebrities in Hong Kong's political, business, cultural, and even entertainment circles and take the upper-level route. Including Jin Yong coming to the mainland next year, it is also the result of the elite united front. So in this environment, the situation of the left can be imagined, how embarrassing it is. "I am a soft-spoken person, but my heart can be seen through the sun and the moon. The last time I met seniors Fu Qi and Shi Hui, I just regretted not having the chance to talk freely. I have another letter here. I hope you can pass it on to them to express my respect. ” Chen Qi rarely spoke from the bottom of his heart. He really liked this couple and their daughter was also very beautiful. "Okay, I'll definitely convey it to you!" "Then please, these two scripts are both short and fast, and they can be released after a few months of operation... Oh, it would be great if I had the opportunity to go to Hong Kong to see the film environment there. I might have a deeper understanding. It's a pity that I go out It’s difficult.” Coming to Hong Kong? The person from the Great Wall was moved and looked at the other person carefully. Needless to say, he was young and promising. He had seen with his own eyes how he arranged the arrangements on the set of "Tai Chi". What's more important is that people still have a big picture view. They can analyze and judge Hong Kong with just a little information, which is quite a bit like strategizing and winning a victory thousands of miles away. The left wing is in dire straits and is in need of talent. He suppressed this thought and prepared to return to Hong Kong to report to Fu Qi. ………… For his attitude towards Hong Kong, Chen Qi has always advocated two words: fuck him! Unfortunately, the current environment does not allow it, and he can't do it hard, so he can only stab the soft knife. He came through, and he could not seduce Sister Gong Xue, or He Qing, Chen Hong, or Tao Huimin, but he must do Hong Kong entertainment! "Dong Dong Dong!" He sent away the people from the Great Wall and prepared to go to bed. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Liang Xiaosheng came in with a stack of manuscript paper. "Xiao Chen, I have finished writing the first half of "Big Shanghai 1937", would you like to take a look?" "Oh, okay!" Chen Qi took it and roughly flipped through it, mainly the beginning and the end, and smiled: "Old Liang, your writing skills in popular novels are getting better and better, much better than mine." "Actually, this thing is quite easy to write, it's easy to find the tricks." Liang Xiaosheng lit a cigarette and became proud. Starting from September last year, Chen Qi published "Kapok Robe" and the first half of "Invincible Mandarin Duck Legs" in "Story Club" every two months. The two collaborated on the second half and "Wudang". Liang Xiaosheng received 88 yuan in royalties each time, and he has earned 264 yuan in just half a year. A man with money is confident, and he now speaks with his chest and head held high. "Big Shanghai 1937" is also a famous work in the 1980s. The great director Chang Cheh went north to shoot it. It tells the story of a group of people in old Shanghai fighting against the Japanese. There is a character called "Little Knife Yang Fan", played by Dong Zhihua. Dong Zijian's father, the one who played the Wulang Bagua stick in "Kung Fu".
Chen Qi saw Liang Xiaosheng puffing away leisurely, and said with a smile: "Old Liang, our Aqi and Aguai combination is becoming more and more famous in the world. I heard that you went to a restaurant two days ago. Why are you giving up serious literature?"
