264 [Hope of Unblocking]
Xiang Huaqiang came to drink to see Kang Jianfei's face, but he was not interested in Yang Dengkui, a colleague from southern Taiwan. After drinking for a while, he found an excuse to say goodbye.
After Xiang Huaqiang left, Yang Dengkui finally talked about the important matter: "Mr. Kang, you are an expert in filmmaking, and I definitely can't compare to you in this regard. But I still love the movie industry. I took a lot of effort to get the script of "Red Fen Corps". I sincerely want to invite Miss Lin to star in it."
Kang Jianfei did not agree immediately, but asked Zhu Yanping: "Which step has the movie been prepared?"
Zhu Yanping said: "We have invited several actresses such as Liu Haoyi, Peng Xuefen, Yang Huishan, and Sally Yeh, just waiting for Miss Lin Qingxia to nod."
By listening to the actresses Zhu Yanping mentioned, you know that Yang Dengkui has put a lot of effort into this movie. Among them, Liu Haoyi is a TV star and a female fighting star who has practiced martial arts since childhood. She is well-known in Taiwan; Peng Xuefen was an advertising star with a fresh and beautiful appearance, and is known as the "student lover"; Yang Huishan is very famous in Taiwan whether she is a host or an actor; although Sally Yeh has never filmed any drama, she is a new popular female singer in Taiwan in the past two years.
These actresses belong to different TV stations, film companies and record companies. It is impossible for ordinary film producers to collect them all. I think Yang Dengkui used some special means.
Kang Jianfei said in a difficult manner: "Dreamworks has launched the shooting plan for "Senior Sister Royal 2". Qingxia is about to go to the United States to shoot films and will not have time to take on Boss Yang's "Red Fen Corps" within at least two months."
When Yang Dengkui heard this, he became silent. It was his first time investing in filming. He was not sure that "The Red Fen Corps" would be a hit. "The Royal Sister" is a Hong Kong film that is popular in Europe and the United States. Now that "The Royal Sister" is going to make a sequel, it is naturally much more important than "The Red Fen Corps". Whoever chooses will shoot the former first.
Zhu Yanping looked at Kang Jianfei and Lin Qingxia and suddenly said to Yang Dengkui: "Boss Yang, with our current progress, we can only turn on the computer in half a month at the fastest. Why don't we wait?"
Yang Dengkui gave Zhu Yanping a blank look. The schedules of so many popular Taiwanese stars have been arranged, and it was delayed for two months for Lin Qingxia. This is equivalent to asking other actors to wait for two months in vain, and then delaying at least one month of filming time. Even if he is a gang leader, he cannot do anything like this.
Kang Jianfei thought for a while and said, "Boss Yang, why not do this? Let Li Saifeng play the role of Qingxia."
"Li Saifeng?" Yang Dengkui looked at Zhu Yanping.
Zhu Yanping nodded at him and said, "Li Saifeng has been very popular in Taiwan in the past two years, so it would be nice to be her. However, Li Saifeng is weak and has always been filming romance films, art films, and action films like "Red Fen Corps"?"
When Yang Dengkui heard Zhu Yanping say this, he immediately threw his eyes at Kang Jianfei for inquiring.
Kang Jianfei smiled and said, "Have you ever heard of it? Li Saifeng is my only apprentice. From the beginning, I trained her as an action actress, but I didn't have time to perform."
Zhu Yanping was happy and asked, "Mr. Kang said that Li Saifeng knew Kung Fu?"
Kang Jianfei nodded and said, "You can do some tricks and tricks. Fighting may be worse than street gangsters, but making movies is enough."
"Since Li Saifeng is Mr. Kang's favorite disciple, there is no problem at all." Zhu Yanping said with a smile.
Yang Dengkui did not agree immediately, but said with some concern: "If we invite Li Saifeng, will we be stuck during the film review?"
Yang Dengkui's words calmed down the private room. Ordinary Taiwanese people didn't know about Kang Jianfei's ban on the news bureau, but they were well-known in the Taiwanese film industry.
Although the News Bureau did not announce that it would ban the entire DreamWorks, it is obvious that DreamWorks' movies cannot be sold into the Taiwan market. As a result, Li Saifeng, who was originally very popular in Taiwan, suddenly couldn't receive a film appointment from Taiwan in the first half of this year because Taiwanese investors were worried.
As for Lin Qingxia, it is an exception. Unless Lin Qingxia goes to the mainland by herself, even if the Oriental Dream Factory is banned, the Taiwan News Bureau cannot ban Lin Qingxia.
Kang Jianfei asked Li Saifeng to replace Lin Qingxia to film "The Red Fen Corps". In fact, he had his own plan in his mind, which was to dispel the concerns of Taiwanese producers and then normalize the cooperation between DreamWorks and the Taiwanese film industry.
But unexpectedly, Yang Dengkui told the key point of the problem on the spot, which made Kang Jianfei difficult to deal with.
Seeing that the two sides had a break, director Zhu Yanping suddenly said: "Mr. Kang, if you want to communicate with the News Bureau and lift the ban order, you can go find someone to try it."
"Oh?" Kang Jianfei was delighted when he heard this and asked with great interest, "I have found Mr. Mei Changling, but he said he couldn't help. Who in Taiwan has more weight than him?"
Zhu Yanping explained: "It's not that Mr. Mei can't help, but it's that he is not convenient for him to speak in this matter, after all, it involves the mainland."
Kang Jianfei asked, "Then is convenient for the person you are talking about, Director Zhu?"
Zhu Yanping smiled and said, "No need to say that, he only needs to help Mr. Kang introduce someone, and everyone can sit down and have a meal."
Kang Jianfei thought for a long time but couldn't figure out who Zhu Yanping was talking about. He asked, "Director Zhu, please tell me clearly who that person is."
Zhu Yanping looked at Lin Qingxia and said softly: "Grand Director Liu Jiachang"
Lin Qingxia's face became quite complicated when she heard Liu Jiachang's name.
Although Lin Qingxia debuted in the film "Outside the Window" by Qiong Yao, seriously, it was Liu Jiachang who really made Lin Qingxia famous. Liu Jiachang was involved in Gu Minglun's suicide a few years ago. At that time, Taiwanese public opinion was one-sided that Liu Jiachang forced Gu Minglun to death, which forced Liu Jiachang to go far to the United States to avoid the limelight.
Gu Minglun is Lin Qingxia's best friend. During the funeral, Lin Qingxia personally helped the coffin to see her off. Liu Jiachang is also Lin Qingxia's mentor. Liu Jiachang's wife Zhen Zhen is also Lin Qingxia's best friend. As a result, the mentor forced her friend to death, which made Lin Qingxia very uncomfortable when she was caught in the middle. Therefore, when Zhu Yanping mentioned Liu Jiachang, Lin Qingxia felt uncomfortable all over.
Liu Jiachang was a godfather-level existence in the Taiwanese music scene in the 1970s, and was also the most popular commercial director in Taiwan. Even the layman Yang Dengkui knew that Liu Jiachang was the man.
Yang Dengkui also said in surprise: "Didn't Liu Jiachang go to the United States?"
Zhu Yanping said: "I just came back last month."
Kang Jianfei only knew that there was someone like Liu Jiachang, but he didn't know much about him. He asked: "Liu Jiachang has such a great amount of energy, can he influence the opinions of the News Bureau?"
Zhu Yanping explained: "Of course Liu Jiachang is not that capable, but he has a good personal relationship with the second son of Jiang, Xiaowu, and he has a relationship with the Ministry of National Defense and the News Bureau."
Kang Jianfei hesitated and said, "It may not be easy to ask him for help from Xiao Jiang Xiaowu. DreamWorks can't make much money in Taiwan a year. If he speaks a lot, I won't give enough money."
Zhu Yanping smiled and said, "I heard that this second young master Jiang is not rich, but he is very interested in beauty."
Zhu Yanping said it very clearly, and asked Kang Jianfei to find a beautiful woman for Jiang Xiaowu.
Kang Jianfei suddenly felt the coldness. When he turned his head to see, Lin Qingxia was staring at Zhu Yanping with a tense face and was quite unkindly.
How did Lin Qingxia’s friend Gu Minglun die back then?
The most widely spread statement is that Jiang Xiaowu fell in love with Gu Minglun's girlfriend and forced Gu Minglun to death for that woman, and Liu Jiachang was just Jiang Xiaowu's scapegoat.
Zhu Yanping now made an idea to ask Kang Jianfei to give Jiang Xiaowu a woman in front of Lin Qingxia. It would be strange if Lin Qingxia was not angry.
Although Kang Jianfei didn't know the specific inside story, Lin Qingxia, who had always been kind to others, suddenly fell down and got angry. He knew that this matter could not be discussed anymore.
Kang Jianfei winked at Zhu Yanping, and began to pull Yang Dengkui to drink, saying, "Come on, I won't talk about work today, I'll give Boss Yang a drink."
Yang Dengkui is also a person who is accustomed to observing words and expressions. He laughed: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, Mr. Kang, I'll respect you first!"
After drinking for more than half an hour, Kang Jianfei helped Yang Dengkui walk out with drunken eyes and took the opportunity to whisper to Zhu Yanping: "Director Zhu, please contact me for Liu Jiachang. I will go to Taiwan in a while."
"Okay." Zhu Yanping was overjoyed. Although he has made several movies with good box office in the past two years, he can only be considered a second-rate director in Taiwan and has a good reputation. Now that he has Yang Dengkui as his backer, if he gets Kang Jianfei through this matter, he will be much easier in the future.
Zhu Yanping and Yang Dengkui's younger brother helped Yang Dengkui back to the hotel. Kang Jianfei and Lin Qingxia went downstairs side by side. As soon as he was about to open the car door, Lin Qingxia said with an ugly expression: "You have drunk, I'll drive."
Kang Jianfei had no choice but to give the car door handle to Lin Qingxia and said, "Are you still angry?"
Lin Qingxia sat in the cab and said angrily: "A Fei, don't get involved with the Jiang family in the future. Those three princes don't have a good reputation."
Kang Jianfei smiled and put his seat belt on his face, then kissed Lin Qingxia on his face, "Okay, I listened to Sister Qingxia."
After hearing Kang Jianfei call her "sister", Lin Qingxia finally smiled with her face tense, pushed Kang Jianfei away and said, "Okay, sit down quickly, I smelled so badly in alcohol."
Lin Qingxia started the car, while Kang Jianfei leaned against his seat and closed his eyes to rest, thinking in his mind how to get along with Jiang Xiaowu's line.
Time travelers are not omnipotent. The last time I went to mainland China to film "Shaolin Temple" was a major mistake by Kang Jianfei. He only knew that Li Lianjie was signed by Shaw Brothers two years later and also made several movies. Taiwan did not punish Shaw Brothers at all.
But sometimes, the time difference is completely different for a few months, let alone two years.
Today's Taiwan is completely different from Taiwan two years later, and Kang Jianfei is simply hitting the gun.
For fear that continuing to reuse Li Lianjie would anger the Taiwan authorities again, Kang Jianfei had already loaned Li Lianjie out and is now filming "Shaolin Boy" for Great Wall Film Company.
This time, with the opportunity to ease, Kang Jianfei said he would seize everything, and the chance of success seemed to be very high.
The Taiwan News Bureau is actually very ambiguous about handling "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng". It was just that it stuck with DreamWorks movies during the film review and listed Kang Jianfei as a sensitive person in the news to restrict reports. However, the Taiwan authorities did not restrict Kang Jianfei from entering Taiwan, so Kang Jianfei could go to Taipei to film "The True Color of Heroes" at any time.
If he was banned by the Taiwan News Bureau, Kang Jianfei could still hold on if he only lost that little box office.
The biggest impact on the company was because of the ban from the Taiwan authorities, which led to other film companies in Hong Kong not cooperating with DreamWorks. Oriental DreamWorks has raised a large number of people, but it is impossible for them to have filmed movies all the time. The Kang family class, the Raptors stunt team, the company's actors, behind the scenes, etc. can all reduce administrative expenses by cooperating with other companies, and even make a small profit.
The Taiwanese authorities' ban on DreamWorks will not be lifted for a day, and employees of Oriental DreamWorks can only film for themselves. This will greatly affect employees' confidence in the company.
In a daze, Kang Jianfei, who was slightly drunk, found that he had stopped home. Just as he was about to push the door and get out of the car, he suddenly patted his head and said, "Qingxia, go to the airport, Xiaoguan is going back today."
Xiao Guan is Guan Zhilin. Lin Qingxia has long suspected that the relationship between the two is abnormal, but now she has to drive to meet her love rival in person because she is afraid that Kang Jianfei will drive in an accident while drunk.
