When the idea came to a head, everyone started to sit down and eat. During the period, the three of them talked about movies and filming, and the conversation was very interesting.
Before leaving, looking at Sandra Ng who was looking at him expectantly, Yang Dongxu knew that he had to express what he thought, whether it was successful or not, so that he could give others an answer so that he would not be left hanging and tortured.
"As for songs, I don't have anything suitable for you right now." As soon as Yang Dongxu opened his mouth, Sandra Ng's eyes, which had high expectations, couldn't help but dim. Although she knew that she didn't have any talent in singing, getting such an answer was expected, but I couldn't help but be disappointed.
Seeing what Andy Lau wanted to say, Yang Dongxu raised his hand and continued: "If you are willing, I have some movie roles that are suitable for you, but I hope you can sign Haina."
Compared to Sandra Ng's incompetence in singing, she was able to occupy a place in the golden period of Hong Kong movies in the 1990s. Sandra Ng's acting skills are obviously widely recognized. However, Yang Dongxu is not a philanthropic person. He helps other companies make a semi-famous person famous and drools while watching others make money. He will definitely not do such a loss-making business.
Seeing Sandra Ng's hesitation, Yang Dongxu said again: "You can consider my suggestion. I can't guarantee anything else. If you sign Haina, I can guarantee you that your income will be at least double what you are now, and you will only be able to earn more in the future." It will not be less than this basic income. Your reputation may not be able to increase much in a short period of time. I need to re-create an image for you, but within 5 years I guarantee that you will become a first-line actress."
There is obviously no need to ask whether Sandra Ng is popular, so there is no need to question her acting skills. The reason why she has not been popular for so many years is because of her wrong positioning. If Sandra Ng played the role of a gentle lady in the future, how would you feel? It would feel awkward and make you want to hit someone, just like how Sandra Ng's singing in "97 Happy Events" was too unpleasant for Lin Zhengying to accept her.
But now Sandra Ng is taking this route, so Yang Dongxu feels that Sandra Ng's dress today makes him stunning and has a good figure. It's not that he is dazzled, that's true. Whether in acting or in reality, Sandra Ng now has no exaggerated body language, her honest and funny style is really quite ladylike. Isn't this a joke? Sandra Ng entered the TVB artist training class at the age of 16. If the basic conditions were not good enough, would Infinitely turn her into a gentle lady?
"This..." Yang Dongxu's words made Sandra Ng hesitate. After all, she had directly participated in TVB's TV series after graduating from TVB training. It would not be easy to leave suddenly, not to mention she didn't have any confidence in her heart.
"Hainer Company also has a TV drama department. Although there is only one TV series released now, you have seen the ratings. You have acted in TV dramas from the beginning. Even if my movie is not successful, you will still be able to make a living in the TV series. , not to mention that Hainer also has a record department." Seeing Sandra Ng hesitate, Yang Dongxu gave the other party reassurance.
"This... I need to go back and think about it, and even if I want to leave, I will definitely tell the people above me in advance. After all, the company has treated me well over the years." After thinking about it, Sandra Ng felt that she might still be tepid if she stayed at Wireless now. Don't let it go on, after all, it has been like this for the past nine years. And she is obviously a person who wants to make progress, otherwise she would not have dragged Andy Lau to find Yang Dongxu.
"That's no problem. We'll follow normal procedures and I'll help you pay the liquidated damages." Yang Dongxu nodded and gave him a favor.
For a newcomer, Sandra Ng's liquidated damages are definitely not low. After all, she has been trained by Wireless from the beginning. The liquidated damages must be very high to prevent the trained talents from being poached by other companies.
But no matter how high it is, it is impossible to be higher than a first-tier star. After all, Sandra Ng can only be regarded as a second-tier star or the one with the lowest reputation. Apart from her familiar face and ability to make money, she is not as good as a third-tier celebrity, so this does not seem to be low. The liquidated damages are nothing compared to the money-attracting ability that Sandra Ng will build in the future. Yang Dongxu naturally wants to express his generosity, and at the same time, it can also reduce the pressure on the other party and make it easier for him to switch jobs.
After the matter was discussed, Yang Dongxu would still be filming tomorrow, and he also needed to go back and take a look at the scenes he shot today, so everyone left after saying a few polite words.
Yang Dongxu is busy until late every day, but in this kind of life, time will undoubtedly feel like it passes quickly. So when Yang Dongxu felt as if he had just started filming, the last shot had already been completed. The shooting time was within the scheduled range and took 8 days. I will go back and review it to see if there are any shots that can be reshot. Then I will edit it if it is fast, it will be released tomorrow, if it is slow, it will be released the day after tomorrow.
During the filming of "Fist of Heroes" by Yang Dongxu, it was released in Hong Kong on July 13. A well-received and well-received film "A Chinese Ghost Story 2: Human Road" was released in Hong Kong. The director is Cheng Xiaodong and the producer is Tsui Hark. The leading star is naturally a classic. Leslie Cheung, the creator of Ning Caichen's character, and Wang Zuxian, the actor who plays the goddess Nie Xiaoqian in the hearts of countless people. The combination of these two is definitely a classic that countless remakes of the classic CP of the "A Chinese Ghost Story" series cannot surpass.
Therefore, this movie immediately occupied the first place in all theaters as soon as it was released. However, while it was a hit, it also had a shortcoming. That is, compared to the first part, the audience felt that the second part of "The Human World" was not as exciting as the first one. In fact, when filming "A Chinese Ghost Story 2: The Human World", the sequel to "A Chinese Ghost Story", it was a bit far-fetched.
Because the first film "A Chinese Ghost Story" was so successful, when filming the second film, the investors forced a continuation of the plot of the first film so that it could match the success of the first film and increase the box office. In fact, both the first and the second part are actually classics when viewed separately. It’s just that the second part seems to have the shadow of the first part and is not as impactful as the first one. However, the second part is more realistic and some of the lines are worth it. People savor it.
For example, Yang Dongxu still remembers Zhuge Wolong's classic line. Zhuge Wolong said to Ning Caichen who was imprisoned in the same prison: "I am a human being like you, and life is a prison. Hehe... My ancestors did not have the vision to let me be knowledgeable and let me write books to pass down to the world. Who knows that I write When it comes to travel notes, they say I leaked state secrets; when I write about history, they say I use the past to satirize the present; when I comment on the art of war, they say I instigate rebellion; when I write stories about gods and monsters, they say I lead people into superstition; and finally when I rewrite biographies, this celebrity loses power. Being labeled a rebel, I was immediately sentenced to life imprisonment... Alas, life is just a prison."
Is this sentence similar to the 'spirit' of later generations in the officialdom of doing more and making more mistakes, and doing less and making fewer mistakes and not doing well?
So no matter how others feel that this second part is not as classic as the first, Yang Dongxu feels that some of the plots and lines in this second part are worth savoring and are more flavorful than the first. So after Yang Dongxu finished filming "Fist of Heroes", he went to the cinema to watch the movie again. Unexpectedly, he met an acquaintance.
"Maggie Cheung." When Yang Dongxu sat down, sitting next to him was Maggie Cheung, who was wearing a peaked cap and wearing a simple but extremely deceptive disguise.
"You... Mr. Yang, are you coming to watch the movie too?" Maggie Cheung was shocked when she was suddenly recognized and wanted to leave subconsciously. She came out alone without an assistant or anything. If someone recognized her and blocked her here, it would cause What's confusing is troublesome. But she subconsciously glanced at the person who called her name, turned around and wanted to leave, and was stunned for a moment.
"Sit down quickly." Maggie Cheung suddenly stood up and attracted the attention of the people next to her. Yang Dongxu quickly reached out and pulled her to sit down to avoid unnecessary trouble. After seeing Maggie Cheung sitting down, people who looked over thought it was a couple quarreling and the woman wanted to leave. He was pulled back again, and he looked away without realizing that there was any excitement. Yang Dongxu breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he looked at Maggie Cheung who was shrinking and cautious and said with some humor: "Why did you come here to watch a movie and buy something with people on both sides?" Middle seat?”
"I've been very careful in my disguise, how could I have known that someone would recognize me." Maggie Cheung looked around like a thief, and when she found that no one was paying attention, she stuck out her tongue cutely.
Indeed, if it had been anyone else, Maggie Cheung might not have been recognized, because her disguise was not armed from head to teeth, and it would have been obvious at a glance that there was something wrong with this person, even if they didn't want to pay attention.
Instead, he simply wore a hat with long hair scattered on both sides of his face, a loose shirt on the upper body, thin trousers and sneakers on the lower body, popcorn in one hand and Coke in the other. Because the short shirt was very loose, his figure was not eye-catching. As for the big Sitting with long legs, naturally no one noticed, and the lighting in the cinema was originally dim, so even if you were sitting next to Maggie Cheung and didn't see her face, you would at best think that the person sitting next to you was just an ordinary girl watching a movie.
It's a pity that he met Yang Dongxu. Others see people by their faces, but Yang Dongxu is not like this. As long as it is someone who has an impression in his mind, he can search for it in his mind even if you only stretch out one leg. Number. For a goddess like Maggie Cheung, naturally one only needs to look at the general outline. Of course, what's more important is that Maggie Cheung's perfume smells the same today as it did in the restaurant before. With this clue and the fact that Yang Dongxu is sitting next to her, he will be damned if he doesn't recognize her.
"You didn't watch the premiere?"
"I watched it. I watched it with my brother (Leslie Cheung). But I thought the movie was quite interesting, so I planned to watch it again today. I didn't expect to meet you. I really came to the right place." Maggie Cheung looked a little bit Little excitement.
"Are you so happy to meet me? Are you happier than picking up money?" Yang Dongxu couldn't help teasing the other person.
"Yes." Maggie Cheung nodded without thinking, and then realized that her cheeks felt a little hot.
"Hang!" Yang Dongxu cleared his throat. It was obviously a surprise encounter because of a chance encounter, but why the words were a bit ambiguous, "I also have a movie coming out the day after tomorrow. If you have time, you can come and watch it together."
"Your movie? Are you an investor?" Maggie Cheung asked curiously.
