Chapter 25 Preparations

"kindness"

"Okay, I can promise to help you make a movie. But you will tell me how you conceived "The Legend of Qin" in the future."

"No problem, then can you promise me to help me dig some people from Shaw Brothers?" Mo Xuan agreed.

"This..." Wang Jing was a little hesitant at this time. He understood what Mo Xuan meant, and wanted to use his connections to dig up the corner of Shaw Brothers. But he and Dadou were still making a living under the hands of Shaw Morden. It was already very out of the way to help people outside filming, and they had to dig up his corner of the corner, which made him a little hesitant.

"As long as the crew is in place, the filming will be started immediately, and you are fully responsible for the crew's affairs. Don't worry, I have a good relationship with Uncle Six. If he blames him, I will bear it." Mo Xuan knew that Wang Jing was already moved, so he immediately said.

"No problem, I'll cover it with me." Wang Jing immediately patted his chest and promised when he heard Mo Xuan say this. He also heard Wang Tianlin say that the author of "The Legend of Qin" had a good personal relationship with Shao Yifu.

Anyway, Shaw Brothers has become even more lonely recently than before. She was attacked by Jiahe and Princess Jin before the New Year, and the box office was sluggish. In addition, Shaw Brothers is reluctant to spend money and has produced a large number of bad movies, which has led to Shaw Brothers movies becoming synonymous with bad movies, and the audience is unwilling to watch them.

Even the recently invested science fiction movie "Interstellar Blunt" has failed at the box office. He did this entirely for Shaw's employees to be good. How could they get the salary if they don't start work? Wang Jing comforted himself that he was their savior.

Seeing Wang Jing agreeing, Mo Xuan took him to a restaurant next to the wireless and told him the plot of the movie.

"In the Qing Dynasty, after failing to win the top scorer even after more than ten exams, Zhu Xiucai was so angry that his father was so angry that he left his wife. He also committed suicide by hanging a beam in a certain temple, but he was unable to reincarnate and his soul was attached to the hemp rope he used to commit suicide.

In a blink of an eye, it was Xiangjiang in the 1980s. Lin Xiaohua, Lin Qingqing and Yan Ruyu, a girl from Xiangjiang high school, accidentally broke into the ancient temple where Zhu Xiucai committed suicide during a holiday trip. Qing brought the old hemp rope back to the dormitory in a hurry. Zhu, whose soul attached to the hemp rope, was also taken to the school, making a lot of jokes and helping them.

Zhu became good friends with them and advised them to rely on their own abilities to create a future. Zhu was reborn as a result of this.

Yes, what Mo Xuan asked Wang Jing to film was the "Happy Ghost" that made Yuan Jieying, Luo Meiwei, Chen Jialing, Li Lizhen and other girls famous.

As for why he filmed "Happy Ghost", Mo Xuan also had his own plans. "Happy Ghost" was said to be Huang Baiming in the original time and space. He once saw a group of middle school students performing the drama "Zhu Xiucai", which had a profound influence. Later, he bought the copyright adaptation of the film.

Then, it was directed by Gao Zhisen and Huang Baiming of New Art City and starring Huang Baiming. Due to the first box office hit, it started filming sequels such as "Happy Ghosts on Summer Vacation" and "Happy Ghosts Fighting Ghosts", becoming a famous comedy series.

In Mo Xuan's memory, the first part of "Happy Ghost" will be released in 1984, next year. If you don't shoot it now, it will probably be too late.

Since he had long planned to acquire Shaw Brothers Cinemas, he would sooner or later become a competitor in the film industry, so how could he give the enemy a chance to win both fame and fortune?

Moreover, "Happy Ghost" is a typical small investment and high-yield movie. The plot is simple and the shooting process is not complicated. With Wang Jing's current level, it can be completely controlled.

"Good, it's a good idea. There are many funny scenes in it. Just find a few beautiful girls to take photos, which will definitely meet the tastes of young students today, and the box office will definitely be very popular."

Wang Jing is not only an excellent director, but also an excellent screenwriter. From Mo Xuan's narrative, he knew that this movie was very likely to be a big hit and could be finished soon.

"I don't know how much money you plan to invest in this movie, Mr. Mo." Wang Jing asked. The amount of funds determines the quality of the movie. If there is more, Wang Jing will make some details in the movie better. If there is less, it will be done, as long as there is no big flaw.

"Three million Hong Kong dollars" Mo Xuan thought for a while and replied. At the 6th Imperial Capital International Film Festival in his previous life, Huang Baiming said that he spent 2 million Hong Kong dollars on filming "Happy Ghost" at that time, and made 12 million Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong alone, not to mention a huge overseas market, so Mo Xuan also wanted to invest 2 million Hong Kong dollars at the beginning.

But Mo Xuan then thought that this was the first movie filmed by Xuanyuan Pictures, and it had to be better and had a good start, so he decided to invest an additional HKD one million.

Wang Jing was also very happy when he heard Mo Xuan say he wanted to invest three million Hong Kong dollars to film "Happy Ghost". His original budget was 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars, but he didn't expect that Mo Xuan was so generous and gave him twice the budget in his heart. However, Wang Jing didn't say too much, which movie would say that he thought he had invested too much money.

Thinking of this in my heart, his favor for Mo Xuan increased a lot, and thinking in my heart, maybe it would be a good idea to join Mo Xuan's company in the future.

"Why don't you know if anyone can choose a male and female protagonist?" Wang Jing asked, knowing that many film investors in Xiangjiang now have their own hobby of selecting male protagonists themselves.

"Well, I don't have any idea about this yet. Do you have any people to recommend?" Mo Xuan had no special candidate in his heart. It was a coincidence that he met Wang Jing today. The movie "Happy Ghost" was all said in his heart in a hurry.

"I couldn't think of a suitable candidate for a while, but it's best to try to choose Shaw Brothers actors, so that I can explain it to my uncle Six in the future."

"If there is no suitable candidate at Shaw Brothers, we will enter the newspaper to auditions in the newspaper while forming the crew. This will not only select the remaining candidates from them, but also make the movie famous." Wang Jing did not expect that Mo Xuan had no suitable candidate yet, so he had to think about it and said.

Mo Xuan thought for a while and agreed to Wang Jing's proposal. He wanted to acquire Shaw Brothers Cinemas and needed Shao Yifu nodding. At this time, he should show goodwill to Shao Yifu.

Afterwards, Mo Xuan told Wang Jing's company's address and phone number and left. As for Wang Jing, he used his relationship with Shaw Brothers and his father's face to attract people. Although this fat man was hesitant on the surface, he actually wanted to have a movie to shoot, so that he could make money again.
