Wei Jiahui? Xiao Ran felt as if his head exploded with a buzzing sound, and then he had the terrible phenomenon of sweating all over his body. How could he not have heard of this name? Wei Jiahui is now working as a director for TVB, "Rogue Tycoon" and "Xin Zha"
"Brother" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" are his works.
These dramas have become quite popular in the past few years. If Xiao Ran said that he didn't know, he would probably be looked down upon by You Zhihao. Before he could speak, Wei Dongling nodded and said with an interesting expression: "This
I’ve heard the name before, and it seems to be related to many TV series!”
Speaking of this, Wei Dongling became even more interested in movies. Of course Xiao Ran didn't know what Wei Dongling was thinking, and he had no interest in knowing. He just suppressed his excitement and said to You Zhi: "When will I invite him out for dinner?"
, I really want to make friends!”
"That's it!" You Zhi thought for a while and knew that Wei Jiahui was taking a rest, so he smiled and said to Xiao Ran: "It's better to choose a day than to hit it, let's do it today!"
After a phone call, he immediately made up his mind. This time he wasn't going to a food stall. Xiao Ran didn't want to greet his idol and half-master in this way. He had written a novel in his dream, and his writing techniques were influenced by Wei Jiahui.
The impact was so great that he couldn't help but be excited.
Not long after, Wei Jiahui arrived. He was not much different now than he would be in the future. Perhaps the only difference was that he was relatively thinner now and had not yet grown a very attractive mustache.
You Zhi introduced Wei Dongling and Xiao Ran and got to know each other for a while before starting the conversation. Wei Jiahui was obviously a very cheerful person and soon told You Zhi a happy news. Because of his hard lobbying, Wireless finally decided to let You Zhi
Will get it back.
After a while of congratulations, Wei Jiahui heard You Zhi's introduction and knew that Xiao Ran was the screenwriter, so he smiled and said to him: "Since your script is very good, A You Zhi, why haven't you joined the film company yet? I think they
Talents like you are definitely very welcome!”
"I don't want to be a cheap captive pig!" Xiao Ran joked with a slight smile, and then said: "I'm not used to that, so it's better to be free!"
"I envy you very much!" Wei Jiahui obviously agreed with Xiao Ran's view and nodded in agreement: "It is better to be free, but it is difficult for people like me who write dramas! There is no concept of freedom at all!"
"Really?" Xiao Ran smiled mysteriously and glanced at Wei Jiahui with deep meaning, as if he wanted to see his heart, which surprised Wei Jiahui. Only then did Xiao Ran continue what he said: "The TV series and the movie are completely different, although
TVB also produces TV movies, but that is definitely not enough space for aspiring people to show off!"
Anyone else would have been extremely bored by the topic they were talking about. But Wei Dongling had no such idea. Instead, he looked at the two people talking with interest. Wei Jiahui's eyes lit up, then dimmed: "You're right.
, the TV station is not the end. However, with the contract constraints, it is difficult to have other ideas!"
"It's not important. Opportunities are always around us. The key depends on whether you are willing or not! Do you want this?" Of course Xiao Ran knew that Wei Jiahui wanted it very much, because he knew everything in the future. Wei Jiahui in the dream would be in his nineties.
In the mid-1990s, he co-founded Galaxy Video with Du Qifeng, the most prestigious film company in the post-1997 era.
Some things obviously don't need to be said in detail, but Wei Jiahui doesn't want to dwell on this topic. So, he immediately changed his mind and said: "Mr. Xiao, what do you think is the most important thing in writing a script? I think we
We can share our experiences!”
"Strange, win by surprise!" Xiao Ran blurted out without thinking. When he realized something was wrong, he immediately saw Wei Jiahui's strange expression, as well as the thoughtful expressions of You Zhi and even Wei Dongling. Xiao Ran knew that he was finished. This view, even this
He completely plagiarized every sentence from Wei Jiahui, and now the secret has definitely been exposed.
"Okay!" Wei Jiahui suddenly shouted: "Mr. Xiao, your words immediately made something that I have been thinking about and confused for a long time emerge. It is strange, just like readers never want to read the same novels, and the same goes for movies.
.You are really a genius, how did you come up with this!"
Xiao Ran's heart, which had sunk to the bottom of the sea in an instant, immediately rose up. Xiao Ran was surprised and happy, and the cold sweat almost ran down his body. Only then did he realize that Wei Jiahui was not Wei Zu yet, and he had not yet taken the supervisory position at Wireless.
Of course, I haven't said this sentence that will be regarded as a classic by future screenwriters.
But the feeling of plagiarizing classic ideas in front of his idol still made the casual Xiao Ran feel extremely embarrassed. After scolding himself for being shameless and despicable, he immediately pretended to be ashamed.
His expression said: "Thank you, Mr. Wei, I think you'd better call me A Ran!"
He wanted to get rid of the second question, but Wei Jiahui was obviously not one to give up easily. He immediately asked with a smile: "Well, it's only fair that you call me Xiaobao. How did you come up with the idea?"
Xiao Ran could see that although the current Wei Jiahui had some kind of beautiful vision for the movie, he obviously didn't dare to think too much. Most of the time, his thinking was stuck on the screenwriter. However, he didn't think about that much now, he was just very helpless.
He was turning his head, trying to fool himself: "I think it's hard to say. Have you ever tried this feeling? When you think hard, you can't think of anything, but inadvertently, an inconspicuous thing happened in a room.
Just remind you of this!"
"I understand!" Wei Jiahui's eyes did show understanding, which made Xiao Ran breathe a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Wei Jiahui thought he was prevaricating. Wei Jiahui continued thoughtfully: "In terms of Buddhism, this is
It was an epiphany.”
Buddhist? Xiao Ran suddenly understood the origin of "Big Man Has Great Wisdom" (Hong Kong name "Big Brother"). This film, which later won the Academy Award for Best Picture, appeared to be co-directed by Wei Jiahui and To Qifeng
, but Xiao Ran knew that this film implemented Wei Jiahui's themes and concepts, and could only be regarded as his work. From now on, it seems that Wei Jiahui was influenced by Buddhism.
"I hear you also want to make a movie, Ayao?" Xiao Ran looked at Wei Jiahui and asked: "Actually, I think it's not a bad idea to work on a TV station. At least you can train yourself. Such opportunities don't come every day. As long as you have enough
With the experience, it will naturally become a blockbuster when it comes out!"
Of course, Xiao Ran didn't know whether they believed it or not, but he knew that his ambiguous words would definitely come true in the future. Wei Jiahui will be promoted to producer in 1988 due to his outstanding success. Don't underestimate this producer position.
It should be noted that when filming a TV series, the person who really has the right to direct is the producer. The so-called TV series director only has a position similar to an assistant.
As we all know, Wei Jiahui is very successful as a producer. Not to mention other works, just one "Big Era" can make him the greatest figure in the history of wireless. Later, Wei Jiahui and Du Qifeng jointly founded Galaxy,
The first few years were indeed quite unsatisfactory. To put it simply, Xiao Ran laid down two very long-tailed foreshadowings in these words.
After continuing to talk for a while, Xiao Ran admired Wei Jiahui's amazing talent. At the same time, Wei Jiahui also praised Xiao Ran's amazing judgment and vision. They all exchanged contact information and agreed to come out together when they were free. This time
They each left together.
After returning to Xiaoyao's nest, I heard Wei Dongling sigh depressedly: "I really don't know when I will be able to achieve some results!"
Xiao Ran smiled heartily, looked at Wei Dongling and said: "I think no matter what you do, you need to persevere. I think that as long as you persist in staying in Hong Kong for a few years, you might be able to achieve great success, maybe even as big as you
It’s unimaginable.”
Wei Dongling naturally didn't know that Xiao Ran's purpose in saying these words was to let him stay, and he couldn't help but look bitter after hearing this. In a few years, he was afraid that his energy would be completely worn away here. How many people can hold on?
After a few years of loneliness, if you have talent, you have to wait a few years before you have the chance to show it!
The next day, I said goodbye to You Zhi who had moved back to the dormitory in TVB City. The three of them had not known each other for a while, but they had developed some friendship, especially with Xiao Ran, who had deliberately made friends. Naturally, it was inevitable that they would be reluctant to leave. However, Xiao Ran always had bad intentions.
He said: "If you don't do well in wireless and are unable to realize your ambitions, come to me. I can help you."
Xiao Ran didn't know very well whether You Zhi was doing well or not in Wireless. However, he didn't think he needed to know that much. He only needed to know the movie ambitions in You Zhi's mind. With this, he was confident enough to succeed in the film industry.
I will get the travel journal in the future.
This time he did not directly take the high-level route to submit the script, and some of his methods were very targeted. Xu Keben of New Arts City is a leader of the new wave of Hong Kong films, and he has to be more liberal in some aspects.
He succeeded. If this method is copied to Jiahe, the probability of failure is at least 90%.
Golden Harvest is an old film company. It relied on Bruce Lee to gain a foothold and compete with its old employer, Shaw Brothers. After acquiring Cheng Long, it grew rapidly. Therefore, even fools know that Cheng Long is the backbone of Golden Harvest.
Taking the Jiahe route, the best shortcut is to get rid of Cheng Long.
After asking around for a while, Xiao Ran knew that his guess was wrong. At present, Cheng Long has not founded Weihe Company. Of course, his entrepreneurial work "Police Story" has not yet been filmed. However, the key now is that an unknown guy like him
How can I meet Cheng Long!
Among the celebrities he knows now, except for Xu Ke, who is really famous, there is no one else at all. This gives him a headache. He thinks it is necessary to get himself a big shade tree now, otherwise it will be another day
If you fall into trouble, no one will save you.
It can't be said that Xiao Ran was unprepared for all this, and deliberately met Wei Jiahui, Liang Jiahui, and You Zhi just for the sake of long-term plans in the future. It's just that he has no name, no power, no money, and he hasn't been here for a long time, so there is nothing he can do about it.
How many famous people have I met?
However, if this stumps Xiao Ran, then he will not be able to wander around in his dream. He has a last resort, which he will never use until the last moment. This method is to get to know Cheng Long through Lin Qingxia, and Cheng Long
He doesn't have to give others face, but Lin Qingxia's face is hard for him to lose face and refuse.
