"Qingxia, why are you here?"
Wang Zuxian took Lin Qingxia's arm and followed Fang Yan out of the hotel.
Lin Qingxia gave her a meaningful look, "Why did you come, that's why I came."
"What do you mean?" Wang Zuxian's clear eyes were filled with confusion.
"Whatever Shaw asked you to do, I will do for Jiahe now."
Lin Qingxia said in a voice that only two people could hear.
“Ah!”
Wang Zuxian suddenly realized and screamed.
Fang Yan's attention was immediately attracted. He opened the car door and looked in surprise, "What's wrong?"
"I just accidentally stepped on Xiaoxian's foot. ”
Lin Qingxia hurriedly explained, and then pulled Wang Zuxian to sit in the rear driver's seat.
"So you are just like me."
Wang Zuxian lowered her voice and said: "I thought you and Fang Sheng, you two were..."
Lin Qingxia closed the door Car door, "What is it?"
"It's love...friend." Wang Zuxian changed her words, "Why else would you have come to him so early."
Lin Qingxia rolled her eyes, "I have only met him a few times, and we can't even be considered ordinary friends."
"But the scandal between you and Fang Sheng back then was so troublesome that even I was Baodao all knows, and many media are speculating that you and Qin Xianglin regretted their marriage and broke up because of "He is a third party involved," Wang Zuxian whispered, "and said that if you can abduct him to the treasure island, it will be a great achievement and you can be awarded the Qingtian Bairi Xun..."
"Xiao Xian!"
Lin Qingxia pinched her face in shame.
The sound of the two laughing and playing immediately aroused the curiosity of Dialect in the passenger seat: "What are you talking about?"
Wang Zuxian had an idea, "We were talking about Qingxia going to San Diego International University to study acting last year."
"If I remember correctly, San Diego International University is in the United States, right?" Fang Yan said with a smile.
Lin Qingxia responded with an awkward yet polite smile. She couldn't say that she broke up with Qin Xianglin because she regretted her marriage. She hid in the United States to be quiet, away from the public opinion and gossip of the Hong Kong and Taiwan media, so she had to change the topic. Go to what you saw and heard at Universidad Nacional de Santiago.
“I often hear news about Fang Sheng from international students in school, and I even bought your copy of “Guns, Viruses and Steel”.”
“That’s right! ”
"But I haven't finished reading it. There are many parts that I don't quite understand."
"This is normal, just like if you tell me something about acting, I might not understand it either."
Fang Yan waved his hand: "There are specialties in the profession, and professionals can do what they are good at. There is no need to force it."
Lin Qingxia smiled, as if she couldn't act like a star in front of him. There is no airs, no pressure from being a star, and I feel extremely relaxed.
Seeing them looking at each other, Wang Zuxian gently poked her with her elbow and said softly:
"Look, they said that you two are not even ordinary friends. Sure enough, the newspaper said it right..."
"Those are all written randomly by unscrupulous reporters!"
Lin Qingxia glared angrily.
Wang Zuxian took her best friend's arm and leaned on her shoulder, "If you ask me to choose one among Qin Han, Qin Xianglin and Fang Sheng, I will definitely choose him 100%." As he spoke, he looked straight at Fang Yan's profile.
Lin Qingxia gouged out her eyes and said, "Be realistic, how can you two get along together? Don't talk such nonsense again in the future, or you will be banned like that Liang Jiahui, and you will never have to act in this life."
Wang Zuxian asked: "What if you could, if it were you, which one of the three would you choose?"
"I won't choose any of them." Lin Qingxia said.
Wang Zuxian said in a joking tone: "I know, you won't choose Qin Xianglin anyway, right?"
"Still!"
Between the two women, They tickled each other and couldn't help but let out bursts of laughter like silver bells. …………
Xu Ke's film studio is located on Weizhou Road in Kowloon Tong. It has only two offices, a conference room and a dozen workstations.
At this time, Xu Ke and Shi Nansheng were smiling at Fang Yan and Lin Qingxia, greeting each other.
Fang Yan looked at Shi Nansheng: "I might have to trouble you to book a boat ticket back to eastern Guangdong for me."
As soon as these words came out, Xu Ke, Lin Qingxia and others were shocked. Especially Wang Zuxian, "Are you leaving Xiangjiang?"
Dialect He nodded and said: "I have too many things to do and cannot stay in Xiangjiang for too long. Since I have already met with Shaw Brothers and negotiated with Jiahe, I think it is time to return to the mainland." Then he reminded me suggestively. : "I will give Aunt Six a call later."
"You really should call Mrs. Fang."
Shi Nansheng glanced at Wang Zuxian: "Has Fang Sheng thought about when to leave?"
Fang Yan said straightforwardly: "The day after tomorrow, in the end It’s a ticket for the day after tomorrow.”
Shi Nansheng agreed wholeheartedly, then held Lin Qingxia’s arm with his left hand and Wang Zuxian with his right hand:
“Come to my office, let’s get together and let these men talk about themselves. ”
Watching the three people walk into the conference room, Xu Ke led Fang Yan to his office and closed the door:
"Teacher Fang, you are doing this because you want to use Jiahe's help to let Liu Ye and Fang Tai Make a decision as soon as possible?”
“It does mean this.”
Fang Yan said: “I can’t do it. If they are really sincere, they can go north to Yanjing to discuss cooperation, or they can just make a phone call or write a letter."< br>
Xu Ke raised his eyebrows, "You are so confident, it seems that you must have a good conversation with Jiahe."
Fang Yanyan told everything that happened last night in a concise and concise manner, including the scripts of "Die Hard" and "Police Story".
“Cop film, this word sounds quite fresh.”
Xu Ke thought about it carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt, “If you prepare this for Jiahe, then you plan to prepare it for Shaw Brothers What?”
“I really thought about this yesterday.”
Fang Yan said: "If we want to reverse the current predicament of Shaw Brothers, we must have a new type of film to replace the declining Shaw Brothers martial arts films. I have thought about it, since Golden Harvest makes police stories, why can't Shaw Brothers make gangsters? What about gangsters? If there are police, there will be gangsters. If there are saints, there will be thieves.”
"A gang like "The Godfather" or "Scarface"?"
Xu Ke's eyes instantly lit up.
"Is there a genre film with this theme in Xiangjiang now?"
Fang Yan raised a smile.
“Not much, and not as mature as Hollywood.”
Xu Ke explained that before the 1980s, most gangster movies in Hong Kong were divided into two types.
One is social documentary films, such as Shaw Brothers' "Skynet", "The Case of Hong Kong" and other social documentaries. These films are adapted from real cases and try to restore the truth, but the box office is not high, so they are It's popular but not popular.
The other type is the "social romance film". This type of film integrates gangster elements and gangster issues into the film, and has a relatively detailed description of the gangster society, such as "The Robbery" and "Big Brother". ", "Children of Jianghu", "Sha Dan Ying" and so on.
But generally speaking, Hong Kong's gangster films are still in their infancy, with a small quantity and low quality, and have not formed a truly unique film genre.
“Oh, I didn’t expect that we would be in time.”
Fang Yan shook his head and laughed.
Xu Ke's tone was full of expectation: "You don't want to help Shaw Brothers create a gangster genre film unique to Hong Kong, do you?"
"I'm just talking. , How can I write a gangster movie script with my status?”
Fang Yan spread his hands, “Besides, I don’t know anything about the underworld in Hong Kong, so I can’t write anything.”
"Same."
Xu Ke always felt that there was something strange in these words, but he couldn't find anything wrong.
Just as the two were discussing the promotion plan for "Once Upon a Time in China", there was a sudden knock on the door.
Wang Zuxian followed Shi Nansheng and bravely said that she had just called Fang Yihua. Fang Yihua hoped to treat him to another dinner with Run Run Shao before leaving Xiangjiang. (End of this chapter)
