Chapter 80 Scholar Films

PS: Please vote for recommendations! Please vote for recommendations!

A Toyota Crown car was driving quickly on the road in Taipei. The windows outside the window slowly changed from a short B&B to a high-rise building. There was a huge flow of people. At this time, the four Asian tigers began to show their grace.

Luo Dayou's "Lugang Town" was playing on the car radio.

"Taipei is not my home,

There are no neon lights in my hometown,

The streets of Lukang, the fishing village of Lukang,

People burning incense in Mazu Temple,

Taipei is not my home,

There are no neon lights in my hometown,

Morning in Lukang, dusk in Lukang,

People wandering in civilization——"

Luo Dayou's voice is hoarse, but his singing is intriguing. One person and a guitar, like a warrior, created a new sky for Chinese music. He has made an indelible contribution to the entire Chinese music scene.

One is south and the other is north, south is Luo and north is Cui. The two warriors have a tacit understanding and triggered a revolution in Chinese music.

Wu Xiaozu looked at the scenery outside the window and listened to Luo Dayou's "Lukang Town", and could understand the memorial in Luo Dayou's heart.

"I came to Taipei last year, and the changes haven't been so big."

Jiang Zhiqiang looked at Wu Xiaozu who was staring at the street and said, "Wanwan's economic development is really fast. In the past two days, farmers in Keelung had their land occupied. They came to Taipei collectively to watch high-priced tickets. In the end, the theater could only sell standing tickets...

"

Cinemas selling standing tickets may seem like a joke, but they really exist. In the past two years, Wanwan has continued to build infrastructure, and many people's pockets have also bulged.

Then the old saying came true:

When you have money, you like to pretend to be bad, and don't take ships or planes.

Whether it's you or him, there are ten men and nine flowers.

Bang bang in the cinema - bang!

There are many small hotels doing this kind of business above the theater in Wanwan.



"Tonight we are going to discuss distribution matters with a major film company here in Wanwan."

On the back seat, Jiang Zhiqiang looked at Wu Xiaozu.

"My father has a good relationship with Boss Cai of Scholar Film Company here in Wanwan. He often selects films abroad for Boss Cai. Scholar Film Company has two theater chains in Wanwan and is very powerful."

Jiang Zhiqiang said while taking out two cigars from the lining, "This time the filming of "The Birth of a Prefix" Wanwan was also left to the cooperation of academics. They provided corresponding cast and crew according to the shooting needs."

Naturally, the film industry in Bay Area cannot be compared with that of Hong Kong Island. This has also resulted in a feature of Bay Area - the cast and crew are signed by film companies.

When Zhu Yanping was filming "New Oolong Yuan", even the tea waiters were official employees of the film company. When he came to Wanwan to shoot, he would either seek cooperation from the film company or find a local "corner boss".

"The Birth of a Prefix" does not have many roles in Wan Wan, and Wu Xiaozu did not need to bring actors from Wan Wan for one or two scenes.

"Scholar Films didn't put any conditions?"

Wu Xiaozu took the cigar cutter and smiled without raising his head, "Boss Cai doesn't even take a bite of the fat in front of him. Is his business so big because he likes to do good deeds?"

"Do you think the other party has an agenda?"

"There must be an intention, but I don't know how much benefit this boss Cai wants to get from you and me! Movie distribution rights? Box office share?"

Wu Xiaozu bit his cigar, flicked the lighter with a click, lit it, took a puff, and said with a smile, "I've seen businessmen eat bones without spitting out the residue, but I've never seen anyone who does good deeds without leaving their name."

"Doing good deeds will definitely not."

Jiang Zhiqiang rolled down the window a little, and the breeze blew in, making the car feel cold. "Then, what they are trying to do is probably the distribution rights of Wanwan..."

"Then you have to ask Boss Cai."

Wu Xiaozu chuckled and said, "Perhaps Wanwan Da Shuihuang is really like me, willing to do one good deed every day and help others. In that case, aren't we judging the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain?"

"I'm afraid that people will cut you and me into fish fillets every minute like eating RB cuisine." Jiang Zhiqiang rolled his eyes, "I can see you blackening Dame Lin from head to toe. Are you happy to help others? How about helping others?"

Tell me another joke..."

"Ahem..."

Wu Xiaozu was caught off guard and was choked by Second Young Master Jiang. He coughed and quickly changed the subject, "Have you ordered Qiu Litao's "The Story of a Pretty Girl"?"

"I called last night. Qiu Litao finished editing and found some band friends to score the music," Jiang Zhiqiang said.

"No wonder I asked him to help me find someone to score the music. He was so committed." Thinking about Qiu Litao's friends, Wu Xiaozu stopped thinking about it.

The movie "The Birth of a Prefix" needed a soundtrack to express the characters' voices. Since Qiu Litao knew many musicians, Wu Xiaozu felt at ease.

Scholar Film Company, General Manager's Office.

In front of the balcony window, more than a dozen pots of bonsai of various shapes are placed on the ornamental wooden stand. A man wearing a shirt, vest, hawk-nosed eyes, and a serious face is standing with his back to the hall, holding a slanted gardening stick in his hand.

Shen was concentrating on pruning the green pine bonsai in front of her.

"Lawyer Hu, what do you think of this bonsai?"

"Boss Cai's bonsai is cut with a rugged style and is very flavorful."

A man with glasses and a beard next to him leaned over and said softly, "However, it's still better than the pot you gave to the 'boss' two days ago."

"hehe…"

The man held the diagonal scissors, pointed at Lawyer He, and said to a tall and thin man and a slim woman in the hall, "So I say that lawyers in the world know how to speak best."

"Boss Cai is so complimentary."

Lawyer He said, neither humble nor arrogant, "'Boss' wants you to pay attention to the recent meeting of the cultural department. The theme of the meeting should be related to the distribution of the Wanwan Film Subsidy Fund and the National Education Film Special Fund. I will contact Boss Cai then."

"Okay, say hello to Minister He for me."

Seemingly unintentionally, Cai Songlin smiled and asked, "Tell Minister He that I will have tea with him when I have time."

"I don't know which Minister He Mr. Cai is talking about. But I will definitely take your thoughts with you." Lawyer Hu's face straightened and he patted the black suitcase in his hand. "If there is nothing else, I will go back first.

"As he said that, he pushed the door open and walked out with an unwavering expression.

"Lawyer Hu, wait a moment."

Suddenly, a tall and thin man chased me out with a black bag and handed it over with a smile on his face, "Lawyer Hu, you forgot to bring your things."

Lawyer Hu stopped with a calm expression, looked at the black bag in the other party's hand, and suddenly said, "Look at my memory." After taking the black bag, he nodded with satisfaction on his face as soon as he took it, and turned to leave.

After taking two or three steps, he suddenly turned around and added with a slight smile, "I'm here today for a purely private visit. Boss Cai had better not talk too much about other people. Otherwise it will be very troublesome..."

"Understood." The tall and thin man nodded, with a knowing look on his face.



In the office.

"Lawyer Hu is quite protective of his client," the capable woman said.

"Just a dog."

Cai Songlin threw a broken tape into the trash can with cold eyes, "When will Young Master Chen and Young Master Feng from Hong Kong Island come to Taiwan?"

"This afternoon's flight." The capable woman added, flipping through the notebook in her hand, "But Jiang Zhiqiang, the deputy manager of Antai Pictures, will visit you tonight to discuss film cooperation and distribution. You see..."

"Jiang Zuyi..."

The corners of Cai Songlin's lips curled up, "Then let's arrange them together. I think these rich second generations from Hong Kong should have more common topics if they get together."

"But..." The capable woman looked hesitant.

"Go and do it."
