Oriental Pictures changed its name to Oriental Sheng Pictures because Zhang Cheng remembered that Huang Baiming also established an Oriental Film Group after splitting up in Xinyi City.

Most of those who came to the company to apply for roles were small roles that Zhang Cheng had never heard of. Since he had never heard of it, there was basically no good future. Zhang Cheng had read the scripts brought by these people, and he was all

A story you haven't heard before.

After all the scripts were shot, there were still two screenwriting assistants, Passer A and Passer B, who were willing to learn while doing it. The company paid 1,800 Hong Kong dollars a month, and if they participated in the filming period, they would get extra income.

It seems that when hiring someone, you still need to follow Liu Bei's example and visit the thatched cottage three times. After Zhang Cheng found out the address, he took the company's director Yazhi to find Wu Yusen first. The two parties had already made an appointment to meet at a tea restaurant.

Wu Yusen is now a member of Jiahe, but Zhang Cheng knows that this man is not an easy man. During his time in Jiahe, he secretly went to Xinyi City to make movies under the pseudonym Wu Shangfei to make money.

Now that New Art City has not yet been established, Zhang Cheng feels that signing Wu Yusen should be a sure thing.

"Director Zhang, Yazhi. Good morning."

"Hello, Mr. Wu."

The two sides greeted each other and sat down. Zhang Cheng asked: "Mr. Wu, are you interested in joining our Dongfang Sheng Pictures? With Mr. Wu, our Dongfang Sheng Pictures can be said to be even more powerful."

Wu Yusen: "Sorry, Director Zhang, my contract is still with Jiahe, but I have already agreed to Mecca, Huang Baiming, and Shi Tian. They are planning to establish a New Art City Film and Television Company with the support of Boss Lei. I can't go back on my promise."

Zhang Cheng: "I haven't signed it anyway, don't you want to hear our conditions from Dongfang Sheng Pictures?"

Wu Yusen: "I'm just afraid that if I listen to it, I will be even more reluctant to give up, so I still won't listen."

"Okay then. There will be opportunities to cooperate in the future."

After Wu Yusen left, Zhang Cheng said to Yazhi: "I didn't expect that New Art City would start grabbing people from us before it was established!"

Yazhi: "It's not that easy to start a company, but it seems that Mecca and Huang Baiming want to do something big. Who is next?"

"Xu Ke, have you heard of it?"

Yazhi: "I have watched his directorial debut "Butterfly", which is quite interesting. Michelle played it."

"You mentioned "Butterfly", and I remembered that movie. I felt it should be called "The Moth Murder Case."

Soon, Xu Ke and his wife Shi Nansheng came together.

Although Xu Ke's directorial talent is very strong, his wife Shi Nansheng is also a rare managerial talent. Shi Nansheng later became the housekeeper of New Art City. Shi Nansheng's role in New Art City far exceeded that of Xu Ke.

"Director Zhang, Yazhi. In fact, we have already agreed to Mecca, Huang Baiming..."

Xu Ke came up to speak clearly, but halfway through his speech, he was interrupted by his wife Shi Nansheng: "Let's first listen to what Director Zhang said."

Zhang Cheng: "I don't know what the conditions offered by New Art City are. Here at Oriental Sheng Pictures, the director, producer, and screenwriter have a basic salary of 3,000 Hong Kong dollars per month. If you participate in the production of a movie, the director, producer, and screenwriter will become

The main creative staff will receive an additional salary of HKD 50,000.

After the film is released, the director, producer, screenwriter and main actors, as the main creative staff, can receive 50% of the local box office in Hong Kong and 50% of the company’s overseas copyright income.”

After hearing this, Shi Nansheng stood up and held Yazhi's hand: "Originally, we promised Mecca, Huang Baiming and others to join the future New Art City, but your company gave too much. I agreed to join Dongfang Sheng Pictures

.”

Seeing that her husband Xu Ke was still hesitating, Shi Nansheng said: "What are you still thinking about? Over there in Mecca, Huang Baiming, if you film a movie, you will be given tens of thousands of yuan at most, and if it is a hit at the box office, they will give you a big red envelope at most. Oriental

Isn’t it great that Sheng Pictures has clearly laid out its conditions?”

Hey, woman, you can fall out of love faster than turning over a book. Xu Ke also feels that the treatment here is better than that in New Art City. However, just a few days ago, he agreed to join Mecca Huang Baiming in New Art City, and now he turned to Dongfang Sheng.

It seems that there is a little lack of loyalty.

But my wife is right, money is the biggest thing in the world, who can’t get along with money. I like movies, but I can’t use love to generate electricity.

"Director Zhang, Yazhi, you are going to cause trouble to everyone in the future."

"There, we will be a family from now on. With the help of both of you, I will get the Crouching Dragon and Phoenix chicks at the same time. If Dongfang wins, there is no need to worry about failing to achieve hegemony."

Yazhi poured Maojian for everyone and asked, "Who else is coming?"

Zhang Cheng: "Two screenwriters, Gao Zhisen and Wang Jing."

Gao Zhisen, Wang Jing, Wei Jiahui (screenwriters of the Big Era), and Wong Kar-wai can be said to be the strongest screenwriters of the new generation. Wei Jiahui and Wong Kar-wai have not debuted yet, but now Gao Zhisen and Wang Jing are working as screenwriters at TVB, and Zhang Chengcheng is preparing to join them

Digged.

Not long after, two fat guys came. The one without glasses was Gao Zhisen, and the fat guy with glasses was Wang Jing.

After listening to the conditions given by Zhang Cheng, Gao Zhisen was ready to join Dongfang Sheng Pictures without hesitation. Previously, Gao Zhisen also jumped to wireless TV from the collapsed Li TV station. It didn't take long to join the job, so he was ready to join the company again.

There is no psychological pressure at all when changing jobs.

Wang Jing was a bit embarrassed: "Director Zhang, Sister Yazhi, everyone knows that my father is the director of the wireless station. Behind the wireless station is Shaw Brothers. I am not a second-rate boy..."

Yazhi: "Why did your father, Uncle Tianlin, raise you so much and send you to school? So that you can become successful one day. So that one day you and your children will no longer be poor. I know how much you earn in Wireless."

Yes, I have also filmed movies at TVB. The basic salary here is about the same. A movie here costs 50,000 yuan, which is enough for more than half a year’s salary. Not to mention the box office share and overseas copyright dividends. This is

This is the most profitable part of a movie."

Wang Jing grimaced: "Now my children and I are suffering from poverty. My mother stole the family's savings and went to Macau to gamble. She lost all the family's money and owed us 50,000 yuan in loan sharks. My wife, Ajun

She’s pregnant again. Adding insult to injury.”

Zhang Cheng took out 100,000 Hong Kong dollars from his bag and handed it to Wang Jing: "Take it to pay off the debt, and it will be deducted from future copyright income, and your interest will not be counted."

Wang Jing collected the money, picked up the napkin on the table and the pen he carried with him, and wrote an IOU: "Don't worry, boss, I will prove my worth."

When he was an editor, Wang Jing was the master who could write plot lines on the set.

If someone had to lose half a pound of hair to write a plot, Zhang Chengcai wouldn’t invite him.

Now that the company has two editors-in-chief, two producers, a director, and a boss, we might as well hold a meeting here. What is Dongfang Sheng Pictures filming for its second film?

Yazhi: "Now that we have two teams of people, we can almost prepare two plays at the same time."

Wang Jing: "Boss, let me tell you, you have now been labeled as a left-wing filmmaker. For example, considering the big stars in the Taiwanese market, such as Ti Lung, Qiu Guan, Long Ge, Jin Bao, etc., it is unlikely that they will be associated with

We are cooperating with Dongfang Sheng Pictures."

This only applies to the behind-the-scenes creative staff such as stars, directors, screenwriters and producers. It will be fine. For example, when Wu Yusen was under contract with Jiahe, he went to New Art City to make a movie and changed his name to Wu Shangfei.

In the same way, even if Wang Jing is labeled as a leftist now, if he goes to work as a screenwriter and director somewhere else, he can just change his name to Wang Ritian - you are banning Wang Jing (Lu Xun), and it has nothing to do with me, Wang Ritian (Zhou Shuren).

Gao Zhisen: "I have an idea that I have been thinking about for a while, but it has never been implemented on paper. It is to shoot a campus comedy ghost film. It should be very popular among young people."

Gao Zhisen has only been out of school for a few years now and can be considered a young man. It is not surprising at all to have such thoughts.

Then Gao Zhisen came up with his idea. A down-and-out scholar in the Qing Dynasty who had failed many tests was hanged in a ruined temple and his ghost was lodged on the hemp rope. A group of students encountered heavy rain during an outing and entered the ruins.

The queen of the temple accidentally took away the hemp rope, which triggered a series of funny scenes.

When Zhang Cheng heard the plot, wasn't this the Happy Ghost? The Happy Ghost was the box office champion in the summer vacation that year, surpassing "The Flag Soldiers of the Province and Hong Kong".

Gao Zhisen: "The name of the movie is "Happy Ghost". I have calculated that for a newcomer, it would cost more than 10,000 Hong Kong dollars to complete the filming."

Zhang Cheng: "Okay, plus the post-publicity expenses, I'll give you 20,000 yuan."

Xu Ke: "I just finished filming Siyuan Pictures' No Gate to Hell. I have been free recently. I will be the director of "Happy Ghost"."

Shi Nansheng: “I will be the producer.”

Zhang Cheng: "The first film is ready, and I have an idea to make a police film. It tells the story of a killer, a policeman, and a blind singer. It's called "The Bloody Heroes."

Wang Jing raised a question: "Since the name is "Bloodshed", the killer should be a positive character."

Zhang Cheng: "You are a killer? You get paid to do things just to have a good meal and not to be embarrassed. The outline of the story is that when the killer was performing an assassination mission in a nightclub, the gunfire accidentally injured the singer's eyes, causing retinal damage to the singer.

The blind killer felt a little guilty and went to the place where the singer was singing every day to buy flowers to cheer her up.

After completing a mission to assassinate a gangster, the killer was attacked by another killer, and then he realized that he had been betrayed. After the injured killer completed his counterattack, the killer found his supervisor, who also introduced him to the industry.

When he asked about this matter, the teacher said that he must give him an explanation.

In the end, the teacher was still old. Although he forcibly obtained the balance from the new boss who assassinated the boss, he was shot and fatally injured. For the sake of loyalty, the teacher used his last moment to give the money to the killer.

past.

Finally, in the church, the killer took the balance payment that the teacher was trying to get back. Inside the church were the beloved blind singer and the police who came to arrest him. Outside the church, the newly appointed underworld boss had brought people to kill him in order to silence him. Finally,

A fierce gun battle. A gun battle amidst the flying pigeons. A gun battle amidst candlelight. A gun battle in front of Jesus...

The police and the killer teamed up to kill all the gangsters who came. Unfortunately, the killer was shot in the head by the gangster who wore a bulletproof vest and pretended to be dead. As a result, the retinas that had been agreed to be replaced by the blind singer were not left.

After the gunfight ended, a large number of police officers arrived as promised. Facing the gangster who had surrendered to the police, the police shot him in the head."

Xu Ke: "This idea is more interesting. Can I change it and be the director of this "Bleeding Heroes" movie?"

Zhang Cheng: "Okay."

Originally, "Bloody Heroes" was a work of Xu Ke Studio. It was also a representative work of Wu Yusen's violent aesthetics. After Wu Yusen filmed "Bloody Heroes", he left Xu Ke Studio due to disagreements with Xu Ke and began to work in Hollywood.

Zhang Cheng: "Ah Jing needs to come up with the script for "The Bloody Heroes" as soon as possible."

Wang Jing: "No problem, I can take pictures and write at the same time."

This is also one of the characteristics of filming TV series and movies in Xiangjiang. Before, I only had one idea and dared to shoot without a script. Then during the filming process, everyone worked together to come up with lines and plots. Many classic lines appeared in such a flash of inspiration.

What is a split-shot script? A filmmaker from Xiangjiang said that he has never seen a split-shot script in his life.

Zhang Cheng came out with "Bleeding Heroes" just to follow Wu Yusen's path and leave Wu Yusen with no way to go.
