You should know that Li Xiaole’s five wise men are not chosen casually. Everyone is not only the name of the top actors in the Golden Age of Hong Kong, but more importantly, Cheng Shaoqiu, Huang Rihua, and Liang Chaowen. They each have a certain martial arts foundation. Even Zeng Zhiwei, who plays the old naughty boy outside the five wise men, are all martial artists. In Li Xiaole’s mind, they are the most suitable actors for these roles.

Huang Rihua once played Xu Zhu, Guo Jing, and Qiao Feng. He was full of chivalrous courage. He played Hong Qigong not only very suitable, but also a kind of inheritance. Zheng Shaoqiu, who created Chu Liuxiang, was a peerless costume superstar of the last era. The introverted and dedicated and cruel performance in "Lust and Caution" was completely the best candidate for the Western poisoning Ouyang Feng in Li Xiaole's mind. With him and Li Lianjie, he is also the best stepping stone for the overseas market.

"I understand..." Zhang Guorong looked at Li Xiaole's firm and serious eyes and suddenly took a deep breath. He finally realized what Li Xiaole was going to do. He wanted to concentrate all the resources in Hong Kong and take them all to invade Hollywood... This director Li really wanted to do something amazing. Thinking of this, Zhang Guorong's calm and peaceful person, he couldn't help but feel a tide.

"Who will play Guo Jing and Huang Rong?" Zhang Guorong suddenly looked at Li Xiaole, his eyes full of huge doubts. If these actors want to play supporting roles, who is qualified to take on this role? If it is not a convincing candidate, even if the friendship is good, I am afraid that no one will be willing to be a green leaf.

"I." Li Xiaole pointed at his nose for granted, and then hugged Ha Ji-won's shoulders, who had been stunned by the sound of hearing, and said to Zhang Guorong with a smile: "And her."

Ha Ji-won was stiff and wide, with her beautiful eyes wide open, unable to say a word. She had known before that she wanted to play the heroine, but she didn't expect that Li Xiaole had hired so many Hong Kong legendary superstars to play her supporting role. You know, she grew up watching the movies of Liang Chaogong and Zhang Guorong... Just thinking about the rivalry with these two people is really terrifying...

Ha Ji-won stared at Zhang Guorong with beautiful eyes wide open, feeling that his heart was about to jump out of his head! He was a little expectant and ashamed, Li Xiaole's request was simply too ignorant...

After a moment of surprise, Zhang Guorong saw that Li Xiaole's eyes were filled with excitement, as if he was wandering in the desert and had been thirsty all week. He suddenly saw an oasis, exuding a passionate desire. He suddenly understood the truth that Li Xiaole chose them as a convincing couple to perform Guo Jing and Huang Rong.

"Okay, this decision is good... Indeed, the entire Chinese entertainment industry is only you, and only you are qualified to play Guo Jing and Huang Rong this time." A gentle smile appeared on Zhang Guorong's face. Yes, besides Li Xiaole, which other male actor in his 20s is qualified to allow him to play supporting roles with Liang Chaogong, Li Lianjie and others.

"Now, we need to find and convince these actors for the first time." Li Xiaole looked at Zhang Guorong and smiled. In fact, if you want to get this cast, the most difficult thing is whether prestigious actors are the first to join and attract others, otherwise this cast will become a boastful joke.

Now that Li Lianjie and Zhang Guorong join, this matter seems to be well-known.

"Well, I'll do this. Let's go to the Hong Kong Performing Artists Association together. It will definitely not be possible to talk about such a major event with an agent. I can only ask Zeng Zhiwei and Cheng Long to nod, and there will be great hope." Zhang Guorong nodded with a smile on his face and decided to come forward in person.

The two looked at each other and looked at Victoria Harbor outside the window at the same time. The tall buildings with bright lights on the other side were shining and changing lights, and they were all thinking about it. If this work could be formed, could this prosperous city reshape its past cultural glory? Both of them couldn't help but feel excited.

At Shatin Jubilee Sports College, the exclusive office hall of the Hong Kong Performing Artists Association.

In the simple office, there is a Chinese ink painting hanging on the American-style light yellow background wall. Cheng Long, who had just returned to Hong Kong to participate in the Olympic promotion, was "slap" his wooden stake. This was his habit for many years. Whether he went to a hotel or filmed in another place, he would beat the wooden stake for an hour. In the past, he would concentrate, but today he seemed a little absent-minded, and the frequency of punches and feet hitting the wooden stake was much lower.

The chubby Zeng Zhiwei next to him was pouring himself a glass of red wine, shaking his glass gently, then sniffed it with his nose, showing an expression of enjoyment. The simple arrangement of the room and the photo of the 800 performing artists in the photo frame on the desk all seemed to remind people of the past glory of the Hong Kong entertainment industry.

In all industry insiders, the Hong Kong entertainment industry is a world of martial arts. This world has its own big shots, and each one is standing on the top. The two big shots of Jiahe and Shaw Brothers in the film industry have been competing for the hegemony. The two big shots of Shao Yifu and Zou Wenhuai are fighting for the wind and rain. The TV series has been fighting with ATV for decades. In the golden age of the Hong Kong entertainment industry, the big shots of business and gangsters have all become leaders in this world.

More than ten years ago, all actors, singers and directors were just chess pieces that were controlled by these major forces. Actors of that era could be frozen at will, or even forced to shoot **** threats. As long as the tycoons of the world were willing, the actresses of the Academy Awards could only set up street stalls to make a living. Kung Fu superstars of such a level as Li Lianjie were once pointed at their guns at their heads to film.

The situation of this world was controlled by the gangsters of the business world. It has undergone a huge change since 1993. The leaders of the martial arts team, Cheng Long and Tsang Chi-wei, launched a series of promotion activities in the industry. Hong Kong performing artists formed a new force - the "Hong Kong Performing Artists Association" was established.

After the establishment of the "Artists Association", several earth-shaking events were held, such as the 1992 Hong Kong film industry anti-gang violence parade, the 1995 "72-hour ban on mouth" boycotts gossip magazine media's paparazzi-style reports, the 1996 "Global Chinese **** Operation", the 1997 Hong Kong's return to the public, the 1997 "March against piracy" and the 1999 anti-piracy series, all these activities prove to people that in this world, their emerging forces have become the new leader of the martial arts world.

However, after the establishment of the Hong Kong Performing Artists Association, it was a period of decline in the entire Hong Kong Performing Arts Industry. Many industry insiders were talking behind the scenes that without the Hong Kong Performing Artists Association, those golden generation actors and directors would have lost a large number of talents to Hollywood, mainland China, or established their own businesses, perhaps the Hong Kong Performing Arts Industry would not have sunk so quickly.

If Zhou Xingxing was forced to be an actor, if Wang Jing was pointed at by the producer and worked hard to film, if Li Lianjie, Chow Yun-fat, and Cheng Long made two Hong Kong films every year, the situation might be completely different now, but if it was just that, no matter what, in the current Hong Kong entertainment industry, Cheng Longyu and Zeng Zhiwei, the two association directors, are the big guys in the circle who are truly the leader of all actors and singers.

"Okay, stop, what do you mean?" Zeng Zhiwei drank a glass of red wine very generously, and shouted to Cheng Long while swinging his glass.

"This is very difficult to deal with." Cheng Long, who was sweating profusely, finally stopped his practice, turned around and wiped his body with a towel, frowned and said, "It's so risky."

Yesterday, Zhang Guorong called in person and explained Li Xiaole's plan to film the 3D "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". He hoped that they could contact and convince the Hong Kong actors. After they understood Li Xiaole's plan, they were also shocked. Li Xiaole's work this time was so big that they all felt their scalp numb.

"I think this is a good thing. Director Li seems to be coming to the real world. I can talk about Huang Rihua, Qiu Guan, Huang Qiusheng, and there should be no problem." Zeng Zhiwei said loudly: "But you must say that I can't handle Jialing~~"

"I can't talk about it. Do you think Li Xiaole can shoot well? He has never made a Hong Kong film." Cheng Long sat on the sofa and frowned. It's not that they can't find actors. When filming "Infernal Affairs", Liu Weiqiang and Mai Zhaohui also came here to find them. They found almost all the big-name actors they could find in one go. That's because they had read the book "Infernal Affairs" and also knew Liu Weiqiang and Mai Zhaohui's level. Before "Infernal Affairs" was released, they thought in their hearts that this film would definitely be a big hit.

But they were really unsure of Li Xiaole's filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". After all, the specifications of the actors Li Xiaole needs this time are too high. If they call on more top actors to shoot a TV series, and they are starring Li Xiaole and his wife alone, which makes people seem somewhat fake for public service.

Besides, it is aimed at the European and American markets? In their impression, no martial arts film has ever really opened up the European and American markets...

But from another perspective, if this time is really successful, it may be an opportunity for Hong Kong films to cheer up. If anyone can use TV series to leverage the European and American markets, then only Li Xiaole, the most prosperous Oscar director...
