Liu Qingshan did not dare to take it lightly and quickly clasped his fists and bowed in a circle.
After being introduced one by one, he entered the studio and took a seat. He also took advantage of the situation and asked people to bring the fruits and drinks over, and set up several tables full of them.
Luo Shou-yao laughed and said, "Liu Sheng's scripts are famous for their high quality, and they also come with part of the storyboard. It saved me a lot of trouble making this film."
The reason why Xiangjiang called Mr. Xiangjiang was simplified to Sheng because the word "Xian" in Cantonese is difficult to hear clearly when placed here, so I later removed the word "Xian" when I listened slowly.
However, most people of the older generation use this title. Young people are more exposed to Mandarin and are used to adding the omitted word.
From this claim alone, it can be seen that Luo Shuyao, who is not very old, belongs to the style of the old-school Xiangjiang people, and his status in the world is vaguely visible.
"Director Luo, you're very polite. In fact, I added some storyboards to the script because of my lack of confidence. I was a little worried that others would not fully understand the specific plot in the script. This kind of inexplicable thing is very important for a great director like you. , not worth mentioning at all!”
Liu Qingshan's self-effacing attitude immediately won the favor of many people he had not known before, such as Luo Shunyao, Li Xiuxian, Tian Niu, and Shao Meiqi.
But Wu Jing is an exception. Although he and Liu Qingshan met for the first time, they have many friends in common. Not only do they hear a lot about each other, but Wu Jing can star in this film, and also Comes from his strong recommendation.
Therefore, Wu Jing's impressions of Liu Qingshan are based on friends he has never met, less of a sense of strangeness and more of inner gratitude.
"It's rare that you are so young and yet so sophisticated in your words and deeds! But you are also bold enough. As far as I know, when this script was provided, you had only played a minor role in Brother Chen Long's movies, right? Your qualifications are so weak. , you dare to have control over the script. When I heard it, I admired your courage!"
Luo Shunyao is probably one of the few outsiders who does not hold Liu Qingshan in awe. He is so outspoken and looks directly at him without any evasion.
However, Liu Qingshan didn’t seem to feel any discomfort at all, “Director Luo spoke quickly and pointed out my careless side of things! Fortunately, both Brother Zijian and Brother Dabao had a broad mind, and they didn’t treat me as a newbie at that time. Hengmei is cold!"
He knew in his heart that if he had no talents and his qualifications at the time, he would be suspected of going overboard at all costs to gain a position. Xiangjiang society as a whole is still quite traditional, and seniority is an inherent system. This is far better than in the mainland. It is much more conservative and has nothing to do with the high-rise buildings that fill the port.
Even if his works are indeed of high quality, it is basically impossible to rise from the position of a junior to the top, let alone imitating the big boss of other companies and dictating the selection of future movie roles while still receiving the remuneration of a senior screenwriter. .
Hong Dabao was obviously afraid that there would be a verbal conflict between the two, so he quickly interrupted: "Shanzi, do you want to take a look at the pictures after shooting? If there is anything that doesn't quite match the picture in your mind, you can point it out in advance for reshoots!"
Liu Qingshan's reaction was actually more nervous than him, "No, no, no, brother Dabao, letting me come to visit the class is actually to give me face, how can I really dare to make irresponsible remarks on the content you filmed. It's just a formality. , you must not harm me, otherwise Director Luo will slap his ass and leave, and I will be in big trouble!"
"Then what's the purpose of your visit today?" Tianniu is indeed famous for being bold and straightforward, and her words are also full of aggression. "Don't think that some fruits and drinks will be enough to kill you. Yesterday I heard that Most of the entertainment industry in Hong Kong has gone to support you, you can’t be stingy with our friends who are locked up on the set!"
This woman can be called a female signature in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong. She is neat and tidy in doing things, and she is brave and courageous for her friends. This extremely charming character is why she has been in and out of the entertainment industry in many twists and turns, and she is still praised by her peers. The main reason accepted.
Liu Qingshan appointed this person to play the role of Lian Haolong's eldest wife Su Su, which was based on the original work, but in the eyes of outsiders, he was attracted by her manly style of doing things.
Seeing her shooting at him, Liu Qingshan couldn't help laughing: "Sister You is indeed as fiery as I thought. It seems that I didn't choose the wrong person, but I have to join the group this afternoon and don't have time. Let’s invite everyone to dinner. How about setting up a few tables after I finish the work?”
Tianniu's nickname is Xiaoyou, and many people know it, but not many people recognize her who dare to call her that. Except for those who are close to her, he is the first one.
Tianniu also smiled heartily: "Forget it then, it's okay if I ask you to do it. I should thank you for thinking that a yellow-faced woman like me, who is nearly fifty years old, will play such an important role!"
Liu Qingshan put on a proud posture and showed off to Luo Shoanyao: "Director Luo, have you seen that, although I am a bit of a newborn calf, I respect the older generation from the bottom of my heart! I haven't seen Sister You. Everyone invites me to dinner, this is popularity!"
Luo Shoanyao curled her lips to expose him: "How long have you been in Xiangjiang? It's true that Tianniu has always been generous, but the only places where she can pay are in food stalls, otherwise she would have gone bankrupt after so many years!"
Everyone burst into laughter, and Shao Meiqi sighed in Wu Jing's ear in the crowd: "Mr. Liu is really a character. He cracked the joint double-teaming between Director Luo and Sister Tianniu in just a few words. You know, even if we are old acquaintances, I I’m still terrified in front of Director Luo!”
Wu Jing replied: "If Shan Zi didn't have such ability, how could he have so many people surrounding him? Personal strength is one thing, and being good at dealing with big people is also an ability. I heard that he set up a trap last night It’s a big game, trying to unite the martial arts in Hong Kong and make a fortune together under the current good situation. Who among the bosses of the four major film companies can do this?"
"I've heard about it too, and it seems the rumors are true! Well, this guy is really amazing. He's only half my age, but he dares to come to Xiangjiang and give orders as a mainlander. No wonder Director Luo is unhappy! "
"It's normal to be a little uncomfortable in my heart, but it would be uncomfortable for me as well. Director Luo has been in the entertainment industry and Jianghu Road for so many years, and was dominated by a mainland boy who was killed out of thin air. If it weren't for Shan Zi His strength is monstrous, and he has been driven out long ago!"
"You can't say that. At least Mr. Liu's starting point is not selfish. Besides, this kung fu craze that has spread around the world was not created by someone alone? Who doesn't feel comfortable and makes it for everyone to see? Listen? It is said that thousands of people in Shadow are all dead, and it has a lot to do with Mr. Liu, is this true?"
Liu Qingshan listened clearly to the whispers between the two. While sighing in his heart about women's gossipy nature, he also kept his mouth busy.
He said to Luo Shoanyao: "Director Luo, my time schedule today is very tight, let's stop chatting! I have written down all the words you questioned me just now, but my love for movies cannot be suppressed by your few words! I still have a script in hand, and I still have to give advice on several main characters in the film, such as Brother Hua, who is my number one choice in that film!"
As he spoke, he took out the script he had prepared, "This is a story about the underworld, but there will be no scenes of guns being used from beginning to end. Instead, more primitive wooden boxes, stones, wine bottles, Knives and other tools replaced the fast-paced fights with more tense scenes, prolonging the death process and thus increasing the cruelty of violence. This is my objective, true and calm self-understanding of the traditional Jianghu Road in Xiangjiang. , it’s like seeing only tools but no blood in a closed and gloomy space, a chilling underworld. The most real and dark side of society. I think Director Luo can capture what I want!”
Luo Shoanyao did not give a direct answer, but grabbed the notebook and immersed himself in the plot.
Because Liu Qingshan mentioned himself emphatically in his words, Ren Jiahua also leaned his head to watch together.
No one else spoke loudly and allowed Kunal and others to distribute fruit drinks to everyone. Liu Qingshan took this opportunity to find Li Xiuxian, who was muttering about this with Zhang Zhaohui, who played Ah Fa in the play.
"Brother Xian, you are a senior figure in the entertainment industry in Xiangjiang. You are also highly respected in our mainland. You have always taken great care of the younger generations. Even Master Xing was promoted by you. So, boy, I dare to ask you Brother Xian served as the host at the premiere of "Kung Fu" because this movie is very important to my future career and I need a respected senior to gain popularity!"
"Shan Zi, I heard that there will be many big names in Hollywood coming to support me. Did you come up with this idea after hearing that I have a good relationship with a few of them?" You can see Liu Qingshan's inner plan.
Liu Qingshan had no choice but to ask him to come out. Among the Hong Kong artists who are familiar with him, the only one who can act as a host in a big scene is Zeng Chiwei. However, this person's humor and on-site reaction ability are top-notch, but he lacks sufficient Because he is better at creating atmosphere, he is only suitable for the second host position.
Although Zhou Renfa and Chen Long could have done a good job hosting the scene, the two people's cards were placed there and it was impossible to appear in that position.
Among those who have the ability to attract senior artists from the old school in Hong Kong and also have the ability to host, only Li Xiuxian can do it. Otherwise, there would be no seniors in the entertainment industry who can compete with the big names in Hollywood, and all the people in the front row would be the same. The gringos will have a negative impact on the international status of Chinese artists.
Although this influence can be controlled within a certain range, his heart is to let the Chinese have an increasingly important position in the entertainment industry in the future, so the phenomenon of Chinese people only being able to sit with them in the back rows is absolutely unacceptable. appeared.
Seeing that the other party expressed his thoughts in one sentence, Liu Qingshan also stated his thoughts truthfully.
