  Chapter 857

  dong dong—

   "Please come in..."

   walked into Chen Yulian's office and saw that she was doing the work at hand with her head down, and she didn't look up to pay attention to who came in.

  Yang Chen gestured to Shi Nansheng, who was following him, and the latter left the office with understanding.

   Consistent with the simple and low-key style of ATV executives, Chen Yulian's office is also very simple, with a desk for work and a sofa and tea table for rest.

  The other thing worth mentioning is a large group photo of Chen Yulian and Yang Chen on a wall in the office.

   For some unknown reason, each of Xue Yufei's three women's offices had a background wall of such a group photo.

   This made Yang Chen have to study, and put the photo with the three girls in each of his offices.

  It took a while

I only heard the knock on the door, the sound of opening the door, the sound of footsteps, and no voice was heard for a long time. Chen Yulian raised her head with a puzzled face, and saw that Yang Chen was standing in her office, staring at the group photo of the two of them, Chen Yulian stopped. After finishing the work at hand, I got up from the chair.

   "Why did you come here?"

   "I just sent Ah Zhen to the training class." Yang Chen stretched his arms around Chen Yulian's shoulders, and said softly, "Are you busy today?"

  Chen Yulian nodded and said, "I'm a little busy, I have accumulated work for several days, I have to finish it as soon as possible."

   "I'll borrow your office to use it later."

   "Do what?"

   "I'm going to let Tsui Hark make a movie, and I've already asked Manager Shi to call someone, and he'll come over in a while."

   "What type of movie?" Chen Yulian asked curiously.

   "Martial arts movie, adapted from Jin Lao's novel."

   Seeing Chen Yulian's look of anticipation, Yang Chen reached out and tapped her forehead, and said with a smile, "Don't think about it, it wasn't for you."

   Hearing that the movie was not prepared for her, Chen Yulian immediately pouted and said unhappily, "Then who did you prepare it for? Ah Zhen? You promised her to make a movie?"

   "Yes, but the heroine is not her."

"Who is that?"

   "It's Qingxia. I promised her before to prepare a transformational movie for her. Although she is busy with business now and doesn't care much about filming, she has never forgotten about it."

   "Is that so?" Chen Yulian asked after listening, "Is it Mr. Jin's novel?"

  Yang Chen: "You definitely didn't act."

"Mr. Jin's novels, when martial arts films were popular in the past, everyone liked to read them, but after Shaw Brothers made martial arts films bad, everyone was not very interested in martial arts films. You are sure to remake Mr. Jin's martial arts films. novel?"

"That old-fashioned martial arts movie is naturally nothing to watch." Halfway through his words, Yang Chen suddenly thought of a person and asked, "By the way, did you sign the person I mentioned to you last time? ?"

   "Last time?" Chen Yulian frowned, trying her best to think about what Yang Chen told her last time.

Seeing this, Yang Chen opened his mouth and reminded: "It's the inland movie Shaolin Temple that was very popular in Xiangjiang last year, the hero named Li Lianjie, I remember reminding you at that time, if that person is interested in coming to Xiangjiang, he will sign someone over. "

   "Oh," Chen Yulian said: "I remember, I sent someone to contact him at that time, but at that time he hadn't decided whether to come to Xiangjiang for development, so he didn't give us a definite answer."

   "No answer?"

   Yang Chen couldn't help frowning. According to the records of Li Lianjie's later generations, the other party should leave the inland to develop in Xiangjiang this year. Li Lianjie's career in acting can be described in four words.

  From the inland to Hong Kong and then to Hollywood in the United States, Li Lianjie's acting career, from the very beginning, which is commonly known as the starting point, has stood in a position that countless people look up to.

  Li Lianjie, a martial arts athlete, made his first film Shaolin Temple after he retired due to injury, which directly broke the box office record of early Chinese films in the Mainland.

   With a box office record of more than 100 million, in that era when the average movie ticket was a dime, the movies he starred in almost won the attention of the people all over the country.

Later, he moved from the inland to the Hong Kong film industry. With his early martial arts background, Li Lianjie starred in one after another movie that the audience loved. He starred in Huang Feihong series movies, Huo Yuanjia, Jingwu Chen Zhen series of patriotic movies …

  To say that among the Chinese stars, there are two people who are probably the ones that big guys can't help but envy.

   One is our Li Juxing, who has been the protagonist from the very beginning, without too many setbacks in the middle, relying on his own fists, into Hollywood, and Cheng Long is as famous internationally.

   In contrast, Cheng Long's journey to fame was much more bumpy. At first, he followed his eldest brother, Sammo Hung and a group of people, and later became a little famous. It was not very smooth in the early days.

   It can be said that many people in the film circle are envious, jealous, and hateful about Li Lianjie's experience.

   Ability plus one's own efforts, and finally plus 100% luck that others don't have, it's not enough to make people envious.

   The second one is the beauty of Jingda among the actresses. Although she does not have the international status of Li Juxing and Cheng Long, I believe that many female stars are really envious of the resources that Jingda beauty has.

   Two proper winners in life, few can compare to them.

  Yang Chen remembered that when Tsui Hark was filming Dongfang Invincible in his previous life, the role of the male lead Linghu Chong was played by Li Lianjie.

   It is precisely because of this movie that Li Lianjie is really valued by the major filmmakers in Hong Kong.

   "Why, are you very optimistic about this person?"

   "I think he is very suitable to partner with Tsui Hark. Tsui Hark's new martial arts concept can be tested by him."

   "I know, I'll send someone to contact that person again."

   "Well, as soon as possible, if you can sign it, you can give him the hero of the Qingxia movie, and then help him gain popularity in Xiangjiang."

  Click—

  The door of the office was opened, and Shi Nansheng came in from the outside.

   "Boss, Director Xu is here."

   "Let him in!"

   "Boss" soon, Tsui Hark walked in.

  It may be because he was busy with work, he was a little late, and he didn't clean up much. Tsui Hark looked a little sloppy.

   "Come on, sit here, won't you disturb your work?"

   "No Disturbing"

   "I won't talk nonsense with you anymore. I want you to adapt a movie. Due to the plot, it may offend someone."

   Without waiting for Tsui Hark to speak, Yang Chen said bluntly: "This person is Jin Daxia, who adapted his film The Swordsman..."

   Having said that, Yang Chen briefly explained the story of the undefeated East in the future. Later, Tsui Hark broke up with Jin Daxia directly because of making this movie. Since then, the two have never cooperated again.
