Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1143 Playing in the sky this time
Lin Daoqiu probably didn't expect that the matter of running his own school would make Run Run Shaw and the others feel like they were sitting on pins and needles.

At this time, he is making preliminary plans for the movie "Royal Senior Sister".

There are two protagonists in this play, Michelle Yeoh and Li Saifeng, and the villains are led by Hui Yinghong and Lin Guobin.

Judging from the list of existing actors, Li Saifeng and Hui Yinghong are the most famous in this "Royal Senior Sister".

But so far, they are not the kind of female stars who can take the lead alone.

As for Michelle Yeoh, let alone, she has only filmed "Owl and Dumbo" before that, and she is not well-known in Xiangjiang's movie circle at all.

At that time, in that drama, everyone focused more on Sammo Hung and Lin Zixiang. As for Michelle Yeoh, she was more of a beautiful vase image.

If other directors and screenwriters are used to film this movie, I am afraid it will be released by then, and the box office should only be around a few million.

But fortunately, Lin Daoqiu, the director and screenwriter of this play, plans to play in person, so this will still be of great help in attracting the audience.

Since this is Michelle Yeoh's first film, Lin Daoqiu intends to test her skills and does not intend to spend a lot of money.

Although he has not determined an exact budget, in Lin Daoqiu's heart, he has already made a budget of no more than [-] million for this film, and the filming location is only selected in Xiangjiang.

If Lin Daoqiu hadn't been the director and screenwriter, I'm afraid no one would have believed that he was interested in this "Royal Senior Sister".

Although the leading actor's reputation is not very good, Lin Daoqiu never thought that the supporting role would be arranged casually.

Jackie Chan and Brigitte Lin must be guest stars. They don't need many roles, but there must be fight scenes, and it will be good for publicity when the time comes.

As for the villains, Lin Daoqiu borrowed some people from Jackie Chan's family class, all of whom are very experienced martial artists, such as Lin Guobin, Feng Ke'an, Lu Huiguang, and so on.

And the action director of this drama is naturally provided by Yuan Jiaban.

At the end of April, the first preparatory meeting of "Royal Senior Sister" was officially held in the conference room of New Oriental.

Lin Daoqiu, Wen Jun, Zheng Danrui, Yuan Heping, and Lin Guobin were all called over by Lin Daoqiu.

"I'm planning to start an action movie, with Baye as the action director. I'll be the director and screenwriter of the movie. Guobin and you will play the villains of the movie."

Yuan Heping knew about this before, so when Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, he didn't have any expression on his face.

As for Lin Guobin, they would not have any opinions. After all, they are just dragon and tiger martial artists in the family-making class at this time. They dare not disobey what Lin Daoqiu tells them to do.

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, we will definitely do our best to make the arrangement between you and Ba Ye the best."

In front of Lin Daoqiu, people like Lin Guobin still seemed a little nervous. After all, in front of them was an internationally renowned movie tycoon. Even Jackie Chan had to look respectful in front of Lin Daoqiu.

"I believe that with your strength, there will be no problem. I am very relieved about this."

For people like Lin Guobin, Lin Daoqiu knew that their kung fu was very good, and making an action movie like "The Royal Sister" was just an easy task for them.

"Dong dong dong..."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

When the door opened, Chen Yiyan and Ke Shouliang walked in from the outside.

"Mr. Lin..."

As Xiangjiang's top stunt performers at this time, Chen Yiyan and Ke Shouliang are definitely the two strongest people here.

Since it is an action movie, dangerous action scenes are naturally indispensable. With Chen Yiyan and Ke Shouliang, Lin Daoqiu's ideas will be realized one by one.

"This time, in addition to the action scenes on the ground, there are also some action scenes in the sky. I will only proceed under the premise of ensuring a certain degree of safety."

Lin Daoqiu can no longer be satisfied with just filming the speeding car chases and blasting scenes on the ground. Starting from "The Royal Sister", Lin Daoqiu has already set his sights on the sky.

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Chen Yiyan and Ke Shouliang immediately became interested.

If it was just an ordinary action scene on the ground, they really didn't think there was anything unusual. After all, in the past few years, more than [-]% of Xiangjiang's stunt scenes were in charge of the Kamikaze stunt company.

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, we will ensure that it will be carried out under the premise of safety, and there will be no accidents."

Having worked with Lin Daoqiu for so many years, Chen Yiyan knew very well that Lin Daoqiu's safety requirements for shooting such stunt scenes were the most demanding of all filmmakers he had ever seen.

If there is no way to ensure safety, Lin Daoqiu will never let them go into battle. This is what makes Chen Yiyan admire Lin Daoqiu very much.

"Don't be so full of words. When the time comes, you will tell me these things when you are filming. I hope to make money in filming, and I hope everyone will make money together. I don't want any accidents to happen."

Lin Daoqiu was most worried about problems with stunts, because he had heard many rumors about this in his previous life.

Especially the stuntmen, many of them were disabled or died due to accidents during filming. This is the last thing Lin Daoqiu wants, and also the last thing he wants to see.

If there are certain scenes that cannot be filmed at that time, Lin Daoqiu does not mind using special effects technology to help. After all, it involves life-threatening matters, and it is not a big deal for him to spend more money.

"Everyone, get ready. We will enter group training in a week. I have a habit of shooting action scenes. I have to train for at least a month before shooting. You should be fine."

Everyone has heard of Lin Daoqiu's habit many times before, but it is only for the leading actors. Dragon and tiger warriors like Lin Guobin are basically unnecessary.

"I know that you guys have to shoot almost every day. It can be said that practice makes perfect for action scenes, but in order to cultivate a tacit understanding between you and the leading actors, you have to train with them for at least two weeks."

Rather than saying that this is Lin Daoqiu's request, it is better to say that it is something he has already decided.

Lin Guobin and the others all nodded after hearing what Lin Daoqiu said. After all, since Lin Daoqiu had already spoken, they naturally dared not have any objections.

Left and right is just practice, it's something they do every day, it's a routine for them.

"This time the training camp is in charge of the Yuan family class, Ba Ye, thank you for your hard work."

Lin Daoqiu turned his head to Yuan Heping.

"Don't worry, Mr. Lin, I will take care of this matter."

Yuan's class has almost been designated as the place where Lin Daoqiu trains action actors, and Yuan Heping has gotten used to it.
