Grey Restaurant, 13 Lan Fang Road, Causeway Bay.

Yes, it was the one who was sitting in "In the Mood for Love" where Zhang Manyu and Liang Chaowei looked at each other and said, "If I had one more ticket, would you go with me?"

The dim lights, the old train car-like pickup seats, green tablecloths and wallpapers, and the dark lights and shadows make the place look cramped and quiet.

Later generations, "In the Mood for Love" and "2046" have been filmed here, and even Lao Du's "Dark Flower" was filmed here. It is understandable that Lao Wang's filming here, after all, his company is in a nearby office building.

This Western restaurant has been open for more than 20 years. It is in the restaurant, just like returning to the 1960s. The restaurant's furnishings, decorations, lighting, and even dining brands are all very nostalgic.

A black pepper steak was placed in front of the bald Cui Minzhi, and the knife and fork were gently cut into the meat.

The lighting group is side lighted, which increases the three-dimensionality and mystery of the characters.

"Cra~ Very Good! Let's protect one more-"

Wu Xiaozu smiled and gestured at Choi Minzhi, and the prop group quickly restored the scene according to the content of the photo just now.

Someone brought a complete steak to Cui Minzhi again. This was the 6th steak he had eaten. It was really a real one.

Periphery.

Qiu Litao, Park Chan-yu and Wang Jiawei watched from the side.

"If you have watched Wu Sir's previous movies, you will find that there are often some cooking and eating scenes in his movies. Then, outside the plot, there are completely tense and exciting scenes.

He likes to contrast the two different scenes in a sharp contrast. In this way, the character's personality can be portrayed with extremely distinctive personality and rich and three-dimensional.

So if there is a meal scene, it is generally not to seduce the audience's appetite, but to serve the theme needs." Qiu Litao whispered to Park Zan-yu.

"Eating can express a person's character very well. In fact, in this environment, it can also be expressed that Sir Wu has always emphasized the character's longing for peace.

And most importantly, the tranquility in these noisy can allow the audience to experience the carefulness between the characters and the deeper inner perceptions...

When the glitz fades, people are often lonely than fireworks. Then, longing cannot be done by themselves, pain cannot be taken care of, and happiness cannot be given by themselves."

After seeing Qiu Litao's explanation, Wang Jiawei took the initiative to help Park Zan-yu expand his "knowledge points".

Park Zan-yu, who had a little insight, listened to Lao Wang's analysis and showed an unattainable entanglement on his face. He suddenly felt that Wang Jiawei's words were to be savored, but he even had to savor them carefully. The more he savored, the more he felt the deeper and obscure.

Especially the summary after that, damn, it’s so fucking good!

Looking at Wang Jiawei, who was tall and wearing a pair of small sunglasses, Park Zan-yu was shocked.

Qiu Litao was also confused.

My head was buzzing, and I felt particularly ashamed. I was worthy of being the most talented disciple of Wumen. This reading comprehension... Let’s look at Wu Xiaozu, who was standing next to Cui Minzhi, who directed the performance, and had a far-reaching vision.

The filming of "The Seven Sins" was suspended some time ago, but overall it did not take much time.

He himself also needs Choi Minzhi and Ken Takakura to experience the characters.

During this period, Ken Takakura went to the police station to "work" every day to experience the familiarity of the characters and shed the strangeness on her body. Choi Min-sik often went to prison to chat with criminals, and would also go to psychologists and pastors to communicate religious issues.

Sharpening a knife will not delay chopping wood.

Originally, this drama was planned to be filmed for at least two and a half months to three months.

"Okay, everyone have a rest and finish work."

After Wu Xiaozu finished shooting the last shot, he ordered Ye Weimin next to him, "Let someone clean the scene. If you borrow us to shoot at night, you must handle the follow-up matters."

"Don't worry, Brother Zu." Ye Wei asked someone to clean the scene.

When filming and filming, naturally, you can't clear the scene every time, it's really a sign of having nowhere to spend money.

For example, this restaurant is just a matter of negotiating the shooting price. They only entered the venue to shoot after the other party closed at 23:00 pm.

It took more than six hours to beat, and it was already past 6 o'clock in the morning.

"Brother Zu~"

"Brother Zu——"

"Come?"

Wu Xiaozu smiled and said to Wang Jiawei, Qiu Litao and Park Zan-yu nodded, "You guys are going to work so early?"

Qiu Litao is leading Park Chan-yuchou to film "The Eight Immortals Hotel". As for Wang Jiawei, his studio is nearby.

"I can't sleep. I happened to hear Changmao telling you that you were filming here, so I came here together. I know there is a 24-hour tea restaurant nearby. The morning tea is very good..." Wang Jiawei took the initiative.

Wu Xiaozu looked at Wang, who was wearing sunglasses, and was surprised that the other party could not sleep.

That's right.

If the investment of 70 million yuan is suppressed, let alone him, the pressure will double. In 1989, the Hong Kong dollar and the US dollar exchange rate have been hovering around 7.79-7.9 in the past six months, with an average of 7.8042, with a small increase or decrease.

So, such a movie is worth nearly 10 million US dollars! Although the three companies share the burden, each company also invests 3 million US dollars.

certainly.

Such a huge investment is extremely effective.

Walk out of the tea restaurant.

I was just seeing a huge movie promotional poster of "The Legend of Ah Fei" hanging on the bus stop sign.

A retro poster with a very textured look, Zhang Guozhen's bust, the title of the movie is composed of artistic characters, and a passage is written in small characters like prose:

‘I heard from others that there is a kind of bird in this world that has no feet, and it can only fly all the time.

When you are tired of flying, you will sleep in the wind. This kind of bird can only go to the ground once in your life, and that time is when it dies.’

Are you too, the footless bird?

I will remember this minute, and from now on, we are the confidants of a minute.

Seeing Wu Xiaozu staring at the huge poster, Wang Jiawei smiled slightly. "The poster you designed?"

"Yes, there are also those posters in front. Buses and subway stations of all sizes in Hong Kong are available. A few days ago, many posters were even lost. Later I found out that many young people thought the posters were too exquisite." Wang Jiawei raised his lips and chuckled, unable to hide the pride between his eyebrows and eyes.

I reached out and pointed to the front, and there was indeed a poster of a different style.

The upper and lower parts of the poster are fonts on the top, and the lower part is divided into a group of characters. Zhang Guozhe, Zhang Manyu, Zhang Xueyou, Liu Jialing, Liang Chaowei and Andy Lau are sitting or standing, and there are oblique seals next to them—

Princess Jin, Debao, and Xinbao Three Lines are open for pre-sale, and 5 mosquitoes are immediately reduced!

Looking at this poster and promotion, Wu Xiaozu also wanted to admit that the 18 million is indeed worth it.

The money is really not spent in vain, the effect is really good!

I scolded Yu Weiguo a thousand times in my heart, and the promotion and distribution cost of "Gun Fire" was only 1.2 million yuan.

Basically, the promotional poster of "Gun Fire" is not visible on the streets.

At this time, a morning bus entered the station, and Zhang Manyu's photo was also posted on the body, with the title of the film and a small number written next to it -

‘It’s getting bright, and today’s weather looks good. I wonder what the sunset will be like today?’

Damn it!

Is there any?

Yes or no?

Let me ask, when an office worker starts working in the morning, he suddenly sees the bus carrying this sentence to pick you up. It’s like an explosion on the spot!

Wu Xiaozu and Wang Jiawei were on the road and walked forward slowly.

"Brother Zu, to be honest, I'm not worried about the box office. I just feel that a delicious dish I have prepared is about to be served, and I care especially about your feelings.

Especially this time I was very happy to be able to compete with you. It was like handing in homework..."

The light of the rising sun shines on the other person, and the whole person is full of confidence.

"Just be happy." Wu Xiaozu lowered his head, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and kicked the can casually.

"I am happier than you if you can succeed. Remember I once said that this era will not stop anyone from shining. Your brilliance will bloom in the most beautiful night sky and shine! I hope you can show your own light."

When Wang Jiawei heard this, he nodded happily.

"I prefer you can attend a film festival recently. Because it involves the out-of-town area of ​​the film, the company has arranged the Sydney Film Festival in Australia and the Melbourne Film Festival.

The focus can be on the Logano International Film Festival in Switzerland.

Because the main purpose of this film festival is to screen foreign films that have never been seen in Switzerland, and encourage young directors or new directors from all over the world to shoot films with new styles and new contents." Wu Xiaozu suggested.

Of course he was not aimless.

The overseas copyright of "The Legend of Ah Fei" was signed to Yilinger-Ersi before the filming started.

If you want to sell movies, you naturally have to participate in more such trade fairs.

"I want to wait for the Venice Film Festival." Wang Jiawei smiled shyly.

"Cough... it's good." Wu Xiaozu coughed dryly. He couldn't say that "Sad City" that Hou lost money had been confirmed to participate in the Venice Film Festival. Don't go like this, right?

"Going out and taking a walk will help increase your knowledge."

"I feel so, too."

Wang Jiawei smiled and nodded, then pointed at Xinbao Cinema in front of him, "Brother Zu, why don't you go over and have a look?"
