"not yet." "Shaw Brothers has reduced production, but you still have filming?" "I did two dramas this year, "Modern Cinderella" and "The Flying Man," and I don't know what I will film next." "Fang Yihua is occupying the latrine and not taking a shit!" Chen Qi complained and said: "Are you interested in coming to my place? I will invest in opening a studio for you, just like Tsui Hark did." Yo! Wang Jing gasped for Shu Qi. He thought that the other party would recruit him and give him more money, but he didn't expect that it was a studio. This is the treatment of a big director. He was a little panicked and didn't understand, so he asked, "Mr. Chen, I'm just a young director. Why do you value me so much?" “You’ve made so many movies, isn’t it enough that none of them cost you money? “But I haven’t had one that exploded at the box office.”
"That's because Shaw Brothers has restricted you. It's a waste of talent for a graduate of the Chinese University of Hong Kong to film that kind of thing." Chen Qidao: "You are very good at learning from overseas works and localizing them, which is good. I hope you can follow me overseas while maintaining localization. Tsui Hark is preparing to shoot a "Black Man" aimed at the American market. You are not good at making this kind of films, but you are very good at grasping the city, the market, and the emotions of men and women. Your studio will not be placed under the name of Dongfang Company, but under the name of Legendary Pictures, which is larger in scale. I don’t expect you to make Raiders of the Lost Ark or Star Wars, but I hope you can make The Graduate, American Graffiti, Grease, Police Academy, and Ghostbusters. 》....." Wang Jing was moved. He has read countless films, so he naturally knows the weight of these films. "Mr. Chen, I, I..." "You think about it, or discuss it with your father, and give me an answer in a few days." "good!" Wang Jing said sincerely: "Thank you Mr. Chen for your appreciation!" One thing to say is that Chen Qi always felt that it was a pity that Wang Jing was trapped in a low-level comedy film about shit and piss. Historically, he has only made one purely literary film. He wrote, directed and acted as producer, telling the story of a woman with cancer taking care of her mentally retarded son, called "Stupid Kid". This kind of film will definitely not win the box office, so I will make commercial films later. Wong Jing can make good films when he is serious, but the quality is not good enough. He seems to be 70 or 80%. This has something to do with the studio-like environment of Hong Kong films. He has never been to the sea and has spent his whole life on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. Some of his scenes and scenes are very advanced, but his overall style is crazy and over-the-top. Chen Qi is willing to give him enough time to brew, let him see the Hollywood production system, broaden his horizons, improve his thinking, and cultivate it to see how far it can go. Wang Tianlin is from Shanghai. During the war, I ran to Hong Kong. Later, when Hong Kong fell, I ran to Guiyang and got a job leading the audience in a theater.
He returned to Hong Kong in 1947 and officially entered the industry. He has made countless movies in his life. Now he is an employee of TVB. He has supervised the production of "Love is Always Love" and the 1983 version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". Johnnie To is his apprentice. When Wang Jing came over, Du Qifeng was also here. "?Axiang, have you finished the activity?" Wang Jing’s real name is Wang Rixiang. He and Johnnie To are the same age and have a good relationship. They laughed and said, "Yes! Are you here to help me out again?" "I'm visiting Master! How was your meeting? What did you talk about?" "It's the Screenwriters Guild, and they elected me as the executive committee member——" As soon as Wang Jing explained the matter, Wang Tianlin straightened his fat body and said slowly: "In the initial stage, you can't do much. But it can be seen that Mr. Chen has a plan. You should pay attention and don't deal with errands." "Dad, do you support this association?" ‘I just think that Hong Kong’s film and television industry is developed, but there has always been no order. It would be better if someone took care of it. " In the past, when the left was in decline, Wang Tianlin helped Fu Qi film a movie under a pseudonym, starring a person with a sophisticated character who no one could offend. Wang Jing perfectly inherited this advantage. Johnnie To is currently dawdling around at TVB, filming a series of martial arts dramas. He also made films for leftists in the early days, but later he somehow turned into a fool, making nonsense every day, as if the decline of Hong Kong films was entirely the mainland's responsibility. He stayed for a meal and then disappeared. Wang Jing wanted to tell his father about being attracted by Chen Qi at this moment, but before he could speak, Wang Tianlin spoke first. "Afeng was here just now, so I can't talk about it. Today, a company called Yongsheng came to you and wanted to invite you to film." "What movie are you filming? Is there a script?" "No, you wrote and directed it, and the price they offered was 10 times what you paid at Shaw Brothers." 10 times? Wang Jing was startled and asked, "Who is Yongsheng?" "The sons of the Xiang family have their roots in Taiwan. They are cooperating with Debao and Princess Jin and are recruiting talents everywhere." Wang Jing blinked his eyes, thinking it was very strange, and said: "After the meeting today, Mr. Chen came to chat with me and said that he wanted to invest in me to open a studio, like Tsui Hark's. I was just trying to discuss it with you!" "Mr. Chen is also looking for you?" "What should I do now? Choose Yongsheng or Dongfang?" "Do you even need to think about it? What are you doing with your brain? You're a dead crab!" Wang Tianlin even spoke in Shanghainese and said: "Although the price offered by Yongsheng is high, what's the benefit of being with them? Their background is not clean, and it may not be good if they return in 1997. There are few young directors in Hong Kong, so don’t underestimate yourself, you are the best. Shaw Brothers is no longer good; A lot of people want you. My dad was also very popular back then, and they all rushed to find me to act in movies. Who can I afford to offend? Guess what I said?
I said, I only act with the most powerful one! What do you think, it has been standing firm for so many years! " "Then I will also act with the most powerful one?" "Of course! With Mr. Chen protecting you, you are not afraid of being retaliated by Yongsheng. Now many people want to go but can't! What can Yongsheng achieve by cooperating with Debao and Princess Jin? They are just defeated generals. " The father and son chatted and agreed immediately. Wong Jing quickly wrote back to Chen Qi, and Chen Qi went to talk to Fang Yihua. Shaw Brothers was not doing well, and Fang Yihua was not in the mood to quarrel, but she had to pay! After much wrangling, Chen Qi paid one million and could take Wong Jing away. He would set up a studio under Legendary Pictures. Chen Qi would not deliberately restrict him from filming anything, as long as he completed the tasks he had assigned. Wong Jing could accommodate many themes, even erotic films, such as "The Jade Girl's Heart Sutra" starring Li Lizhen and Shu Qi, which was produced by him. Of course, Chen Qi would not let him film erotic films in Hong Kong, the leftists still have face. You can go overseas to shoot, such as "Basic Instinct" and the like. There are also those B-level videos, which are particularly suitable for Wong Jing. But he voted for the left and rejected Yongsheng. The Xiang brothers were very unhappy.
