Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 706: Is there any Hollywood level?

The entertainment industry can be called the Vanity Fair that is most prone to rifts. Today is a brother and a girlfriend, and maybe tomorrow they will be torn apart. ◢Щщш.suimeng.lā Even if the parties want to calm down, it is very difficult, for fear that the undisturbed media will provoke and provoke discord. Ti Lung and Jiang David are the most obvious examples.

Robbing the show and the limelight is undoubtedly the main source of contradictions, but Zhou Runfa's "self-disclosure" only attracted the hearty laughter of Wu Yusen, Dillon, and Leslie Cheung, which made Tang Huan look at it playfully. They didn't care about them at all, and wondered: "Could it be that the smooth career development at the moment has allowed these people to live out a new realm and become a lot more open-minded?"

"After Ah Fa entered the play, he was very self-conscious, and everyone would only admire it." The first actor of "The True Colors of Heroes", Ti Lung, first expressed his stance.

"I can't help but admire. For the next scene, he sleeps in the same room with the dog to cultivate feelings, and don't even want his wife." Leslie Cheung made a gesture while laughing, "How should I describe it?" ..."

Tang Huan lightly said, "If you don't be crazy, you won't survive."

"Yes!" Leslie Cheung seemed to be touched by a certain nerve, and he slapped his thigh fiercely with conviction, "It's just that if you don't be crazy, you won't survive!"

"Are they the three Akita dogs that DreamWorks found?" Tang Huan turned to Zhou Runfa.

"Yes, and Forrest." Zhou Runfa scratched his head embarrassedly, "In order to cultivate a tacit understanding, I had to use a dumb method."

"It's hard work, isn't it?" A smile appeared on Tang Huan's mouth. He remembered that this project was the first idea he had run from Japan-a story about a legendary loyal dog in Japanese history.

This Akita dog named "Hachi" was born on November 10, 1923. In 1924, Eizaburo Ueno, a professor at the Faculty of Agriculture of Tokyo Imperial University, began to raise it.

Every day, Hachi will watch Professor Ueno go to work at the door of his home, and in the evening, go to Shibuya Station to greet his master after get off work.

In May 1925, Professor Ueno died suddenly of illness. However, Hachi still went to Shibuya Station every day to wait for the return of his master, until he finally died, waiting for a total of ten years.

During this period, Ba's situation can be described as wandering, very pitiful. As the station employees and the surrounding people did not welcome Ba at that time, Ba was beaten, scolded, and bullied from time to time.

Until 1932: Saito Hiroyoshi of the Japanese Dog Preservation Association wrote an article about eight waiting for his owner at Shibuya Station, and sent it to Tokyo's "Asahi Shimbun", using "Ito しや Old Dog Monogatari"-"Lovely Old "The Dog Story" was published in the newspapers, which caused a sensation. Eight became famous for this, and was later called "Hachi Gong"-"Faithful Dog Hachiko". The station employees and residents changed their attitudes towards this poor old dog. Be friendly.

On March 8, 1935, Hachiko died at the entrance to the north side of the Takizawa Hotel at the age of 11.

In order to commemorate this legendary loyal dog, a bronze statue of Hachiko was built in front of Shibuya Station, but it was recovered by Japan during World War II, which was short of supplies and was rebuilt several years after the end of the war.

Through operation, Tang Huan took this original and suppressed possible activities in Japan, and then handed it to DreamWorks to adapt it into a script with a local background in Hong Kong-"The Story of the Faithful Dog Hachiko".

Of course, no matter how you change, the theme of trust and loyalty will always remain.

With the secret help of Tang Huan, a Hollywood tycoon, the Japanese film "The Forsaken" with the theme of Japanese orphans finally won the Best Foreign Language Film Award at the Oscars ceremony in late March this year. Ten years of blank space.

Naturally, through this tacit cooperation, Tang Huan's influence on the field of Japanese film has increased invisibly.

Therefore, Tang Huan attaches great importance to this project and personally named Li Ang as the director, hoping to take advantage of this good situation and let Hong Kong films further win the Japanese market.

As for the further subtle manipulations, he didn't bother, until now did he know that Zhou Runfa was chosen as the prototype of the male protagonist-Ueno Eisaburo.

"Akita is a large dog. Even the puppies are very lively. Adult dogs have a wider range of activities. They can play together for a long time, which is too much to bear." Zhou Runfa answered with a wry smile.

Tang Huan nodded slightly, picked up the wine glass and shook it, "You are all well-known figures in Xiangjiang's literary and artistic circles, and many people have made their mark early. I am willing to help you build a bigger stage, but what is the effect? We still need to work together."

Everyone hurriedly raised their wine glasses and said sincerely: "With Tang Sheng in front of us, our life can be better."

After the ambitions staggered, Ti Lung asked Li Lianjie, who had cooperated twice, "I heard that "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" is about to be completed. Is there any filming plan in the second half of the year?

"A fashion film will be made in the second half of the year." Li Lianjie nodded, without revealing too many details.

The two are familiar again. In front of the big boss, the minimum business confidentiality rules must be followed. As for the possible employment recommendations after confirming the news, they can communicate privately.

However, Tang Huan, who was drinking a little drunkly, took over the conversation, "Is it the "Zhongnan_Sea Bodyguard"?"

Originally, this movie was prepared to carry some private goods to make a soft advertisement for Tang Huan’s high-tech products in the security field; however, the previous farce of protests in front of the Qinhe Building by the Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant took the lead. Wave advertising offensive.

In any case, this movie has been approved and will continue to be shot as usual, and the cast will not be changed. The heroine is Zhang Manyu.

Ever since Wang Jing's "Frog Prince" first appeared on the big screen in 1984, Zhang Manyu has deliberately shifted the focus of his career to the field of film.

Although most of the roles in the performance are pure and charming girls, who belong to natural performances and do not require much acting skills, but with his outstanding appearance and unique and fresh temperament, Zhang Manyu has attracted the attention of a large number of audiences and film critics.

Also in 1984, after "The Frog Prince", Zhang Manyu, Leslie Cheung, Chen You, and Anita Mui starred in "Fate". Both Zhang Manyu and Anita Mui, both of whom are newcomers in the film industry, have been affirmed by critics for their performance.

Of course, the most classic role during this period was undoubtedly May, the girlfriend of the protagonist Chen Jiaju in "Police Story".

Because this pure and lovely character is particularly eye-catching in Cheng Long's martial arts comedy style, Zhang Manyu became one of the most popular foreign actresses voted by Japanese fans through the release of "Police Story" in Japan.

It is precisely for this success that Zhang Manyu was arranged to act as the heroine of the new version of "Zhongnan_ Sea Bodyguard", she does not need to be as showy as the heroine Zhong Liti in the original version of "Zhongnan_ Sea Bodyguard", with a "Policeman" The status in "Story" is enough.

"Yes." Li Lianjie nodded, "It just so happens that Zhang Manyu's schedule is almost free, and the new crew can start work."

"Zhongnan_hai bodyguard, such a strong aura!" Leslie Cheung smiled and made a gesture, and asked curiously, "Is it the big insider above?"

"That's right." Li Lianjie smiled knowingly, "Actually, this name can only be used outside. According to the boss, when it is shown in the mainland, it will be another name, or else it won't even pass the review level. "

"That's why Mr. Tang has the ability to open up the mainland market, so that these happy troubles will be added." Ti Lung, who has gone to the mainland to film, said with emotion: "Actually, the mainland movie market is pretty good now. One dollar can be exchanged for 7.8 Hong Kong dollars. There are more than 30 Taiwan dollars, while the renminbi is in the early 20s. There are movie theaters in the small counties I have been to. Kung fu movies like ours are very popular. It depends on the ability to operate.

"Jiang is still hot. You mentioned the secrets of my business all at once." Tang Huan laughed. "Even if you only consider the urban population with high spending power, one billion li can bring together more than 5 million people. Xiangjiang’s large consumer market is ten times that of a large consumer market. It depends on whether you have the ability to take it from this cornucopia close at hand."

Everyone repeatedly said yes, and raised their glasses respectfully.

After drinking all the wine in his glass, Tang Huan stood up and said, "I have been here all the time. You are uncomfortable and hard to have a good time, so I left the table early."

Everyone said "where" and "how" in their mouths, and sincerely sent Tang Huan away, and then began to eat without restraint.

...

In fact, Tang Huan was so anxious to leave because thinking of the topic of "Zhongnan_Sea Bodyguard", Zhang Manyu's turn to be "on duty" tonight, so he couldn't help but want to go back to his residence earlier.

Zhang Manyu has been waiting for a long time. Looking at the other party's clothes, Tang Huan couldn't help but shine, because he used to be a charming girl, but now he shows a kind of feminine style.

"The change in your image is very interesting." Tang Huanfa praised sincerely.

Zhang Manyu lightly turned around in front of the mirror, and then smiled, "Maybe it has something to do with the recent scene."

Tang Huan raised his brows and urged with interest: "Let's talk about it then."

"I took a literary film in the first half of the year. It is based on Yi Shu's novel "The Story of Rose". It tells the first half of the heroine of the rich daughter Rose from a girl to a young woman. Of course, I have to adapt to the requirements of the script." Zhang Manyu He brought sugar water, and explained it carefully.

Tang Huan nodded and said casually: "Don't let DreamWorks and Xiangjiang Cinemas Group support the development of Xiangjiang's literary films, but almost all of Xiangjiang's current literary films are inseparable from intimate dramas, which annoys me. I guess it annoys me. This routine is indispensable in "The Story of Rose", how did you deal with it?"

"Technical processing." Zhang Manyu gave Tang Huan a dumbfounded glance, "Otherwise, you can lock up the director Yang Fan, starring Liang Jiahui, Zhang Jianting, etc., then you can rest assured."

Tang Huan laughed, put down the spoon, and asked, "Is the cooperation with Liang Jiahui going well?"

In 1980, Leung Ka Fai, who was admitted to the 10th TVB artist training class and became a classmate with Andy Lau, was swept out by TVB before completing his studies. As a result, he was drawn to the mainland by veteran director Li Hanxiang. The bald head played the role of Emperor Xianfeng. "Burning the Old Summer Palace" and "Changing the curtain to listen to politics".

Although the response of these two films was not small, Leung Ka Fai was also banned by Bao Dao, almost cutting off the possibility of participating in commercial films.

Fortunately, catching up with the richest man's support for the development of Xiangjiang's literary film, Liang Jiahui is not as bleak as the original time and space to run a small business, and has a place to show his strength.

"I don't have to be someone with high professional quality. How can I be qualified to speak up." Zhang Manyu squeezed humility.

"That's true. Whether you are acting as a girl or a young woman, you are now in your true colors, and it is all the credit of my hard work. Come, I will continue to help you improve." Tang Huan hugged Zhang Manyu horizontally.

...

The next day, Wu Yusen bloodshot the **** of "The True Colors of Heroes". In fact, his progress has almost come to an end, except that he once again independently directed a star-studded movie, allowing him to carefully strive for perfection.

To be honest, "The True Colors of Heroes" is not an original. Just like the projects of "A Chinese Ghost Story" and "Four Thousand Golds" that DreamWorks is planning, they are all in the old bottled and new wine places. this.

As early as 1967, Long Gang directed a movie called "The True Colors of Heroes".

This version describes: After Xie Xian's habitual bandit Li Zhuoxiong was released from prison, he decided to reform and no longer set foot in the arena, so with the assistance of the Prisoner Release Association, he found a job and settled down. Li Zhuoxiong did not want to have a bad influence on his younger brother Li Zhichen, so he kept concealing his previous imprisonment. The one-eyed gangster, played by Shi Jian, saw that Li Zhuoxiong refused to re-enter the gang, so he designed his brother Li Zhichen to blast the insurance company Jiawan, in order to force Li Zhuoxiong to submit. However, Li Zhuoxiong insisted on being unyielding, and in the end, to protect his brother's innocence, he took everything alone and went to jail again.

Tsui Hark and Wu Yusen got inspiration from this elevator ~www.wuxiahere.com~ and now they have this "Heroes".

It is conceivable that Tang Huan can make DreamWorks pay attention to this theme, and the success of the film depends entirely on Wu Yusen's personal ability.

Anyway, Tang Huan, who is not bad for money, can easily bear the risks. Based on the principle that the meat will rot in his own pot, he instructed DreamWorks to sign three contracts with Wu Yusen and Tsui Hark.

In this way, this version of "The True Colors of Heroes" has an overall consideration in the layout of the story, and the first part has paved the way for the latter two.

Wu Yusen, who was entrusted with a heavy responsibility, was also under great pressure. Tang Huan said that he wanted to see the existing shooting results of "The True Colors of Heroes". He sorted them out overnight and sent them to the richest man.

In fact, Tang Huan only wanted to confirm one thing, that is, whether Wu Yusen's "The True Colors of a Hero", like the original time-space commentary, has the same Hollywood standards.

If he is so arrogant, then he should take advantage of the current sluggishness of Hollywood and put it to work. (To be continued.)
