084 [Xiang Brothers]
The next day, Xia Tian called Xiang Huasheng, then made an appointment to bring the script to Yongsheng Film Company.
Yongsheng Film Company is located on Austin Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, which is also a territory ruled by the old Yian.
Going to the second floor, I saw the sign of Yongsheng Film Company in summer.
As expected, the entire company has only a few offices and a few staff members, which is a typical bag company.
"Mr. Xiang, good morning." When he entered the reception room, Xia Tian met Xiang Huasheng.
Next to him, there was a man with a cold face, Xiang Huaqiang, who played the role of "Long Wu" among the God of Gamblers.
"Mr. Xia, good morning. Let me introduce you to me. This is my tenth brother Xiang Huaqiang." Xiang Huasheng first introduced, "Third brother, this is Mr. Xia Tianxia."
"Hello, Mr. Xiang." Xia Tian greeted with a smile. He has been famous for Xiang Huaqiang for a long time, but it's a pity that he has no chance to cooperate.
"Hello, Mr. Xia." Xiang Huaqiang stretched out his hand and said.
With one hand held, Xia Tian felt that Xiang Huaqiang's hands were thick and his skin was rough, just like a rock.
Generally, people with such hands are either coolies or martial artists. Obviously, Xiang Huaqiang is not a person who works hard.
When Xiang Huaqiang shook hands with Xia Tian, he also felt that Xia Tian’s hand was strange.
Like him, his joints were thick, but his skin was a little smoother, not as rough as his own.
"Mr. Xia is also a martial arts practitioner." Xiang Huaqiang's eyes lit up, and at the same time he suddenly exerted his strength, wanting to try the quality of summer.
Xia Tian suddenly felt a powerful force coming, causing his hand to hurt violently.
"Is this going to give me a warning?" Xia Tian thought unhappily, and also began to exert force and tighten his hands.
If he gives in at this time, he will show that he is weak and can be bullied. Therefore, in order to show his attitude, he cannot be defeated with one blow.
The two big hands were pressed tightly together, competing with each other without giving in. Both of them could hear the rattle of the joints, which made Xiang Huasheng, who was beside him, turn blue when he heard it.
One minute later, sweat oozed from both of them on their foreheads and sideburns, and it seemed that they were not relaxed.
"Mr. Xiang is indeed very skilled in his kung fu. He is so impressed, admired, admired." At this moment, Xia Tian smiled slightly.
"You're welcome, you're welcome. Fist is afraid of being young. Mr. Xia's kung fu is really good." Xiang Huaqiang said with a smile.
Both of them loosened their hands at the same time.
"Huh" Xiang Huasheng breathed a sigh of relief, "Brother Ten, Mr. Xia is our distinguished guest. Today I am here to talk about serious things, not to learn martial arts with you." He complained with a smile.
Xiang Huaqiang nodded, "Mr. Xia, I'm sorry, I'm a martial arts fanatic. When I see someone practicing martial arts, I want to ask someone for advice. Don't blame me for offending."
"You are polite to Mr. Xiang. I am also a martial arts practitioner, I understand." Xia Tian waved his hand. He was also a martial arts fanatic before. In addition to practicing martial arts, he also liked to compete with others. He felt uncomfortable if he didn't fight for a day. So he understood Xiang Huaqiang's mentality very well.
"Okay, you have time to talk about martial arts alone. Let's talk about the movie today." Xiang Huasheng saw that the two of them had been chatting hard, and quickly interrupted.
"Ah, yes, the matter is important." Xiang Huaqiang nodded. "Mr. Xia, please sit down."
Xia Tian nodded and then took out the script.
"Mr. Xiang, this is the script I wrote yesterday. You can take a look first." He said.
"Mr. Xia, I am really quick-witted. I actually wrote the script in one night. It's really admirable." Xiang Huasheng said in surprise.
They had previously released a movie with poor size and waited for more than a month just to wait for the script. Unexpectedly, summer action was so fast. They wrote the script in one night, which was really beyond their expectations.
Xia Tian smiled, "The wealth is touching. When I think of the 10% box office dividend, I am so excited. How can I have the heart to sleep? Of course, I will finish working all night."
"Okay, Mr. Xia is really quick to speak." Xiang Huasheng said with a smile. As long as Xia Tian is greedy for money, there is no need to worry about not using it for him.
The two then carefully watched the script.
Half an hour later, after reading the script, Xiang Huasheng nodded with satisfaction.
"I think Mr. Xia's script is very interesting. I wonder if the inspiration comes from the happy ghost in New Art City."
Xia Tian was stunned, but unexpectedly Xiang Huasheng could see that it was not simple. "Mr. Xiang was right. When I was writing this script, I did absorb some elements from the happy ghost."
When Xiang Huasheng saw that he was right, he couldn't help but smile proudly. Although he is not a film professional, he has also done a lot of research in order to gain a foothold in the film industry.
Especially the popular movies sold in recent years, he has repeatedly watched and pondered them, absorbed the experience of other people's sales, and refined the elements that the audience likes. Therefore, he could see at a glance that this script has many similarities with the Happy Ghost in New Art City.
After reading the script written by Xia Tian, he felt very satisfied. First, he had the Happy Ghost from New Art City as a pioneer, proving that the campus-themed comedy is indeed popular and he does not have to worry about not being able to sell high box offices;
Second, the investment in this drama is relatively low. There are neither big scenes such as explosions or crashes, nor do you need to make any special shots. At most, just hold a wire. For Yongsheng Film Company, this small-cost investment is just right.
"Are you satisfied with this script by Mr. Xiang?" Xia Tian asked again, "If you have no objection, I want to talk to you about the actors again."
"There is no problem in general." Xiang Huaqiang waved his hand, "Then let's talk about the actors' issues."
Xia Tian nodded and reported the list of actors he had prepared.
"There is no problem with the role of Chung Chuhong, Zhong Zhentao, Zheng Zeshi, and Xia Wenxi. But I don't know who this Miss Wang Shixian is," Xiang Huasheng asked in confusion.
Dudu, the female student played by Wang Qixian, is also a supporting actress with a strong role. If the casting is not properly cast, it will probably have an impact on the quality of the film.
Xia Tian scratched her head awkwardly, "She is my girlfriend now."
Xiang Huasheng was stunned, then laughed, "Mr. Xia, you are very honest."
Xia Tian smiled, "Sir Xiang, please rest assured. Since I have collected the money, I will do my job seriously and will not pretend to be public and private. The reason I recommend her is not because she is dating me now, but because I think she is really suitable."
"Mr. Xiang may not know. Miss Wang is from Taiwanese. The movie she filmed will be very cold this year, causing a sensation in Taiwan. Miss Fang Yihua is very optimistic about her future and specially spent 280,000 Hong Kong dollars to buy out her contract and bring her to Hong Kong to develop."
"Oh, since it's someone that Miss Fang likes, it's definitely not bad." Xiang Huasheng nodded and said, "Then use this Miss Wang. By the way, Chen Yixin, who plays Liu Ban, is this good brother of yours?"
"Yes, I think this role is quite important. If you let a newcomer play, it may not be good, and the old actor may not be suitable, so I recommend Yixin to play it." Xia Tian explained again.
"Mr. Xia is really attentive in his work. I also think these actors are just right." After hearing Xia Tian's explanation, Xiang Huaqiang nodded with satisfaction again. He chose these people as suitable for these roles, so that he could not find any problems.
"It's true that he is a talent. He has done all these things in one night. Such talents should be used by me," Xiang Huasheng sighed in his heart.
"Mr. Xia, I would like to ask how long it will take to finish the film. We want to be released during the Spring Festival period. I don't know if it's OK," Xiang Huaqiang asked with a smile again.
"If the crew can complete the preparations within one week and everyone's cooperation goes well, I'm confident that I can finish the shooting within one month." Xia Tian nodded and said.
"Then let's make the decision. Let's leave the crew to us. We have friendships with several major film companies, so it's still okay to lend some people." Xiang Huasheng smiled. "In addition, it should be okay to ask for a New Year's Eve with Uncle Six."
Xia Tian couldn't help but feel envious when he heard what he said.
The Xiang brothers are indeed powerful, and they don’t have to worry about their funds. They don’t have to worry about their connections, and they are sure that even the most difficult theater chains are built.
In comparison, it is difficult for you to borrow actors and theaters to reach the sky.
"No wonder people say that it's great to cool off by leaning against a big tree." Xia Tian sighed secretly.
After the talk, the Xiang brothers originally wanted to invite Xia Tian to dinner, but he declined it because he had something to do in the magazine.
After Xia Tian left, Xiang Huasheng smiled and said to Brother Ten, "How is it, Brother Ten, I will just say he is a talent."
Xiang Huaqiang nodded, "It's really good."
"If there are more talents like this, we Yongsheng may not be able to become the next Jiahe." Xiang Huasheng said with a smile again.
When Jiahe was founded, it was not as rich as their Yongsheng. It was not because of Bruce Lee, Xu Guanwen, Cheng Long, and Hong Jingbao that he had today's status.
Since he can do it, he can do it himself.
"He may not be the kind of person who is willing to surrender." Xiang Huaqiang said as he squeezed his hands.
He just clenched his fists with Xia Tian. Although Xia Tian gave up, he actually didn't win at all.
Fist is afraid of being strong. Xia Tian’s strength is not weaker than him. The reason why he gave up just now was just because he was afraid of his own status.
From this we can see that he is both a person who knows how to advance and retreat, and he is also a person who refuses to admit defeat easily.
Such a person is unwilling to live in the long term.
"No one is bad for wine, sex, wealth and power. As long as he has weaknesses, he cannot escape from our palms." Xiang Huasheng smiled slightly and said confidently. To be continued.
