Dreams of the Fragrant River

Chapter 88



: Eighty-Eight [Martial Arts Movies Fighting In The Sky]

Kang Jianfei is not someone who is greedy for small profits and ignores the overall situation. A few months ago, Lei Juekun wanted to join the shareholder Fang Dream Factory, but he refused because the other party could never afford the price he wanted.

What was the original Oriental DreamWorks?

There are no employees, no funds, or even an office space. There is only one upcoming “Happy Ghost”.

Lei Juekun can get at least 50% of DreamWorks shares if he invests a few million at random. Will Kang Jianfei be happy with this?

If it was replaced by other people, such as those who were about to establish Xinyicheng, naturally Pidianpidian agreed – that is, with the investment of the gold owner, Boss Lei, and the support of Xinyicheng after the joint venture, why not? for?

But if Mecca and the others knew that the movies they made in the future would sell well, they would never agree to exchange millions for more than 40% of the shares of Xinyicheng.

Kang Jianfei is a traveler. He has confidence in his company, and naturally he will not let others take a share of the pie before he makes a fortune.

Perhaps two or three years later, Oriental DreamWorks has grown, and when Lei Juekun makes another request to become a shareholder, Kang Jianfei will consider cooperation. As for the conditions of cooperation, it is to exchange the shares of the Golden Princess Cinema with the shares of Oriental DreamWorks.

Now that Kang Jianfei is famous, he is still a “million-dollar director”. But if he dared to offer to exchange shares of DreamWorks with Princess Jin, it is estimated that Lei Juekun would have spit on his face as soon as he said this.

When Kang Jianfei returned to the company, Zeng Zhiwei had been waiting for a long time.

At this time, Zeng Zhiwei was only in his 20s. When he was in middle school, he often went to Liujiaban to practice martial arts to play football. Over time, he became acquainted with Liu Jialiang and others, and was recruited into Liujiaban to take charge of the class work. The so-called shift is that the martial artist is responsible for the roll call when he is out of work, and he was completely involved in logistics at that time.

After working in Liujiaban for a few years, Zeng Zhiwei also learned a little bit of martial arts. When Hong Jinbao pulled his flag to create Hongjiaban, he joined two other martial artists in Liujiaban to join Hong Jinbao.

When he was in the Hong family class, Zeng Zhiwei had already become a serious dragon and tiger martial artist. Because of his short stature, he could act as an action substitute for an actress, and he was more popular than a tall and mighty martial artist.

In the 1970s, it was very good to be a dragon and tiger martial artist in Hong Kong, especially those who did well. When the monthly salary of ordinary people was only seven or eight hundred, a good dragon and tiger martial artist was more than 100 a day. When Zeng Zhiwei was at his busiest, he worked with two or three production crews every day, earning nearly 200 yuan a day, which in a few days was more than that of ordinary workers in a month.

However, Zeng Zhiwei is smarter than the average dragon and tiger martial artist. He knows that this line of work is a youth meal, so he changed his job to become a small screenwriter whose income is far lower than that of a martial artist. Seeing that the screenwriter was doing well, Zeng Zhiwei thought about becoming a director again, but he ran with the script for more than a month, but no one was willing to invest in him.

“Hello, Mr. Kang!” After Zeng Zhiwei saw Kang Jianfei, he immediately greeted him and shook hands.

Kang Jianfei smiled and said, “Hello, please sit inside. Ah Cai, bring in a cup of tea for Mr. Zeng.”

Zeng Zhiwei followed Kang Jianfei into the office, sat down and looked carefully. He didn’t go to the celebration party of “Happy Ghost” last time, so today was the first time Zeng Zhiwei saw Kang Jianfei with his own eyes.

The story of Kang Jianfei’s arrest of three gunmen and killing them on the spot has spread widely, and in Hong Kong it is almost known to everyone. This made Kang Jianfei, a great director, shrouded a mysterious halo above his head.

Zeng Zhiwei was very curious about Kang Jianfei, even a little admired. He has been in the Hong Kong film industry for more than ten years, and now he still has nowhere to make his first film. Kang Jian flew to Hong Kong for half a year, but he is already the boss of a film company.

People are more mad than people!

Because foreigners often commit crimes, and many of these people are from the mainland and Vietnam, and the mainland is poor, the Hong Kong people at this time looked down on the mainlanders, thinking that they were the unstable factors in Hong Kong – just like some cities in the 1990s. How the locals look at migrant workers.

A few years later, when Lizhi was elected as Sister Asia, she was ridiculed by the Hong Kong media in every possible way for her lack of quality; Jialing Liu was ranked as a wireless girl in Kowloon, and until the early 1990s, she was laughed at as Beigu, which is a sign that Hong Kong people looked down on mainlanders.

But for successful men, this is definitely not the case.

When the serialization of “Looking for Qin Ji” caused a sensation, some people scolded Kang Jianfei, a mainland boy, who only wrote **** essays; “Shanghai Beach” was a hit, and the finale was unhappy, and some people scolded Kang Jianfei, a mainland boy, for being a brainless boy.

Until the release of “Happy Ghost”, Princess Jin wanted to support Kang Jianfei, and countless people joked that Lei Juekun’s brain was flooded, and Kang Jianfei, a mainland boy, could not be helped.

But when “Happy Ghost” broke 10 million at the box office, most of the people who scolded Kang Jianfei shut up. More than a month ago, the news of Kang Jianfei’s arrest and killing of the gangster came out, and the public opinion in Hong Kong was even more praised.

It can be said that Kang Jianfei has used his talent and success to throw the contemptuous name “Mainland Boy” to the horizon. Even if someone mentions these three words in the future, it will be used to set off Kang Jianfei’s legend and mysterious accessories. He has been completely accepted by the local people in Hong Kong.

This is the advantage of men. After a career, they will naturally be recognized by others. If it is replaced by a woman, once the career is successful, most of the first rumors will come, and it will take time to get through it slowly, just like Jialing Liu has endured for more than ten years, and it was finally accepted by Hong Kong society after that incident.

Although he knew that the young man in front of him would only be 19 years old in two months, Zeng Zhiwei did not dare to take it, so he lowered his attitude and said, “Mr. Kang, I heard that you are going to form a martial arts team?”

Kang Jianfei nodded and said, “I have this plan.”

Zeng Zhiwei said: “I think there is a very good person who I would like to recommend to Mr. Kang.”

“Oh, who is it?” Kang Jianfei asked. He knew that Zeng Zhiwei was selling him a little favor first, and then he talked about the investment.

Zeng Zhiwei said: “This person is called Dong Wei, and he is from a fan family. He used to work at Shaw Brothers, and then he went to Taiwan to be a martial artist for a few years. Recently, Taiwan’s movies are in recession, so he went back to Hong Kong. Mr. Kang should have never heard of it. .”

Kang Jianfei is not familiar with many filmmakers in Hong Kong, but he has heard the name Dong Wei. This person entered the Hong family class in the 1980s, and has worked as an action director or in movies such as “The True Color of Heroes”, “Mong Kok Carmen”, “The True Story of A Fei”, “Painted Skin”, “October Siege”, “Sword Rain” and so on. The action design is quite a fork character.

When filming “Jian Yu”, Kang Jianfei was still a small character, and was thrown by the company to the crew to be a camera assistant. He met Dong Wei at that time.

Since Zeng Zhiwei gave it to him as soon as he came, Kang Jianfei also accepted his love and said, “Huang Shrimp told me about you, do you have a script?”

“Bring it.” As soon as Zeng Zhiwei heard there was a play, he quickly took out the script he had written.

The name of the movie in the script is “The Thief’s Loot”. Kang Jianfei knew that the movie was not good when he saw the name. He should have at least heard of a good movie.

When I opened the script, I saw that it was a drama about vendettas. Moreover, the script of “The Thief’s Booty” has the same problem with the script of other Hong Kong movies now, that is, it is too crude to bear to look directly at!

Many of the details of the movie were not explained clearly, and even the lines were incomplete. The action scene is even more of a brush, and it is estimated that I want to wait for the action director to play it on the spot.

Kang Jianfei scratched his head. He didn’t even have the mood to insist on reading the script. He directly closed the script and said, “The plot is too old-fashioned. By the way, why did you think of making such an outdated martial arts film?”

Zeng Zhiwei felt a little cold, but fortunately Kang Jianfei didn’t immediately refuse. He explained: “This is a low-budget movie. I only need 800,000 investment. There are many brothers in action scenes, and there is no problem in returning to the original.”

Kang Jianfei wanted to help him change the script~www.readwn.com~, but the script was so poor that it could not be changed. If the play was to be a big hit, Cheng Long would not be the lead actor.

Kang Jianfei thought about it and said, “I can invest, but you have to promise me a condition.”

Zeng Zhiwei said happily, “Mr. Kang, please speak.”

Kang Jianfei said: “If you want me to invest, the style of this film must change. It doesn’t mean that some people will like comedy. A low-quality comedy will only make the audience scold. I’ll give you an idea, if you listen to me, shoot it. ”

If Xu Ke came to pull the investment and Kang Jianfei made so many demands, maybe Old Monster Xu would turn around and leave in anger. However, Zeng Zhiwei and Wang Jing are the same kind of people. They make movies for the sake of money. As long as they can start making money, they will happily agree no matter how much the investors ask.

Zeng Zhiwei smiled and said, “Mr. Kang, tell me.”

Kang Jianfei took out a pencil from the pen holder on the desk, found a piece of white paper, and drew a few pictures in the style of violent comics. The road has come to an end. If you want to make a Jianghu film, you have to innovate. In your script, I only see the trend of humorous martial arts films with Cheng Long, and it is the kind of very immature follower. The film requires innovation and change , it’s time to change the style of Jianghu martial arts films!”

Zeng Zhiwei asked at a loss, “How to change the style?”

Kang Jianfei said, “In the past, fights in Jianghu films were fought on the ground. You can fight in the sky, and audiences who come and go can also watch it fresh.”

“Fighting in the sky?” Zeng Zhiwei stared at Kang Jianfei in a stunned manner. He still didn’t understand what the director of Kangda University was talking about.
