Chapter 54 I’m not a scumbag at all
Mainly because there are not enough cafe seats.
And she herself can’t afford it now.
After all, this car costs hundreds of thousands of pounds.
Nowadays, the local people who can own this car are basically either rich or wealthy.
Mainly because the production volume of Rolls-Royce is extremely low, and the identity of the buyer must be checked to ensure whether he is qualified to own a Rolls-Royce.
When I saw this car, I couldn’t help but take a second look.
Unexpectedly, a person got out of the car. After a closer look, he turned out to be Lin Jianren.
"Miss Michelle." Lin Jianren greeted politely, "I am here to pick you up on Xu Sheng's order to take you to the Peninsula Hotel."
"Pick me up?" Michelle was immediately surprised. She originally planned to drive there by herself, but she didn't expect Xu Luo to have someone come pick her up. It was completely beyond her expectation.
But I felt that Xu Luo was a little considerate, but it was just for a meal, and he was not participating in any big event.
Lin Jianren nodded: "Yes, Xu Sheng is very grateful for your help, so I must receive you."
"This..." Michelle hesitated, "It feels too public."
Lin Jianren smiled and said, "That's not a big deal, because Xu Sheng feels that given your status, taking this car is the most suitable one for you. Please get on the bus."
Now that the cars are here, it’s hard for Michelle to refuse.
Fortunately, the atmosphere on the road was not dull. Lin Jianren was very good at finding topics, which made him seem indifferent and not offensive.
It can be said that he is the most perfect receptionist.
The car stopped at the Peninsula Hotel.
Lin Jianren took him into the box again. As for Xu Ke, he also arranged for someone to receive him, and the specifications of the car were also Rolls-Royce.
It’s the hotel’s car anyway, just pay.
But this posture made Xu Ke feel flattered.
Because he is still a newcomer, in this place where there are so many directors, it is really an indescribable feeling to have someone treat him with such standards.
I was moved and surprised.
And Xu Luo will not act condescending and treat each other with courtesy.
But if you don’t give me face, I won’t give you face.
Even if he wants to fall out, he must stand on the moral high ground, even if he has no morals.
"Miss Michelle, please." Lin Jianren pushed open the door of the box.
Michelle stepped in and Xu Luo was already waiting here.
As soon as they met, Xu Luo stood up and walked towards Michelle, "Ms. Michelle, this box will be a bit stuffy. Let me help you put this dress away first."
Michelle was startled for a moment, thinking that this person is really delicate.
So she took off her coat, and Xu Luo helped her hang it up, saying, "Thank you for the compliment."
"I'm sorry, I'm late." Michelle said apologetically, "Xu Sheng, I am flattered by your reception."
"It's still early, because Director Xu Ke hasn't arrived yet." Xu Luo smiled and said, "Please sit down."
Saying that, help pull out the stool.
Another small detail.
After Michelle sat down, Lin Jianren went to greet Xu Ke.
Tonight, Michelle wore a thin pink windbreaker with a white shirt and white trousers. She was dressed in pink and white, with smooth lines and a high-end feel.
It’s a visual enjoyment to watch.
As soon as I sat down, the door of the box was pushed open again.
The person who came in was none other than Xu Ke.
At this time, Xu Ke was confused and had no idea what Xu Luo's intention was in inviting him to dinner.
And when he learned that Xu Luo was going to treat him to dinner, he still went to check this person's information first.

"Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here." Xu Luo laughed, stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and said with a sincere smile, "Director Xu Ke, thank you for the honor, my humble Xu Luo."
"Hello Xu Sheng, I'm Xu Ke." Xu Ke immediately shook hands with him and said, "This is the first time we meet, so please take care of me."
"Please take a seat."
Not only Xu Luo, but also Lin Jianren stayed with us tonight.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Lin Jianren asked the hotel to deliver the meals.
Xu Luo got straight to the point, "I heard, Director Xu, that you are now cooperating with Wu Siyuan and Wu Sheng?"
The name Wu Siyuan is unfamiliar to many people, but his contribution to Hong Kong movies is not small.
In 1978, eight years after his debut, Jack became an instant hit with "Snake Man" and "Drunken Master", establishing his trademark as a kung fu comedy.
The director and martial arts instructor behind him is Yuan Heping, and the producer and producer is Wu Siyuan.
It was Wu Siyuan who lent him to film these two movies.
Wu Siyuan was also the man who unearthed Xu Ke from Jiashi. A few years later, "Once Upon a Time in China", "New Dragon Gate Inn", "The Club of Two Dragons", "Green Snake" and other films were independently produced by Wu Siyuan.
Among them, Wu Siyuan is not only the producer but also the producer of "New Dragon Inn"; he also personally went north to communicate and promoted cooperation with Xiaoxiang Film Studio and Beibao Western Cinema in Yinchuan Town, Ningxia.
In 1991, Wu Siyuan led dozens of directors from the Directors Association to donate hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars at a disaster relief performance, and then mobilized all Hong Kong performing arts stars to stage a charity performance of the disaster relief movie "The Banquet of the Rich";
At the same time, he also contributed to the establishment of Hong Kong film organizations such as the Hong Kong Martial Arts Association, the Screenwriters Association, and the Performing Artists Association.
"The Gambler", "The Extraordinary Affair", etc. were also produced by Wu Siyuan. At the same time, he was also the deputy leader who led the delegation to go north and proactively contacted the mainland film authorities.
One of the figures that cannot be ignored in the Hong Kong film industry.
Regarding Xu Luo's question, Xu Ke did not hide anything and answered honestly: "We did have cooperation before, but my work has just been released, and the two parties have no plans to cooperate on the next work yet."
Xu Luo nodded, "Last year you shot the no-man suspense film "Butterfly", which is called one of the masterpieces of the "New Wave" of Hong Kong movies, but I think it is the most pioneering film of the Hong Kong New Wave."
"I saw in the film that you reflected on traditional martial arts films, placing the story in a chaotic era where there was no restraint and order was broken, and you portrayed human nature in a chaotic background."
"And your just-released "Hell's Gate", the visual language of the entire work is full of surreal cruelty, plasma, close-ups of organs, transvestism and bad taste. It can be regarded as a textbook level of cult films."<
/p>
"Xu Sheng has seen my movie?" Xu Ke suddenly felt like he had met a close friend.
Xu Luodao: "Otherwise, I wouldn't feel this way, but I think your movies haven't formed your own unique style yet."
"Yes." Xu Ke nodded immediately, "I feel the same way, so I'm still exploring."
"Why don't you try to use [chaotic story background] and [novel art design] as the two major elements of your movie?"
Xu Luo smiled and said, then changed the topic, "If we end the cooperation with Wu Sheng, why not join our Unicorn Entertainment Company? Let's work together."
