Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 202 "Killer's Trenches" born ahead of schedule

Spent a warm Christmas Eve with Zhao Yazhi, and finally made her smile through tears, which made the other party not continue to delve into the matter between herself and Brigitte Lin.

But in fact, Zhao Yazhi knew very well that it was absolutely impossible to say that there was no relationship between Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin.

After all, Brigitte Lin can leave her career in Baodao and go to Xiangjiang to make some transformational movies. Can their relationship be normal?

If they were just ordinary friends, Zhao Yazhi would not believe it anyway.

And the reason why she didn't break the casserole to ask the end was because she was worried that if she beat Lin Daoqiu too hard, the other party would bore her.

After all, Zhao Yazhi has seen many bizarre things in the past few years in the entertainment industry.

For such an outstanding person as Lin Daoqiu, and still so young, it would be really strange if no woman liked him.

If he and Lin Daoqiu quarrel if there is any disturbance, it may not be long before their relationship will crack, or even break.

That's why she chose to be patient for the time being and let this matter go.

But this does not mean that Zhao Yazhi will let it go like this, she plans to do something at the right time to let everyone know her relationship with Lin Daoqiu.

It's just that she and Huang Hanwei are going through divorce procedures now, so they can't make any troubles to the outside world.

If the outside world knows that she has an affair with Lin Daoqiu at this time, I am afraid that she will be involved in a huge whirlpool of public opinion by then.

.........

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Carls."

In Golden Harvest Zou Wenhuai's office, we welcomed a special guest today.

As the head of Warner Bros. in Asia, Carls has been committed to discovering excellent films in Asia.

As for Xiangjiang, as one of the most developed places in Asia's film and television entertainment industry at this time, it is natural that Kars needs to work hard.

It's a pity that since Bruce Lee's death, Xiangjiang has not appeared in the international influential star.

So these years, Karls can only pick a few kung fu movies from a bunch of kung fu movies and send them to Hollywood for release, but the box office can only be said to be very average.

"Mr. Zou invited me over today. Is there anything I can do for you?"

Kars knew that Zou Wenhuai would definitely not come here for no reason.

"Mr. Carls, it's like this, we want to pay Warner to make a movie."

"Is Mr. Zou planning to invest in a Hollywood movie?"

Kars understood Zou Wenhuai's meaning as soon as he heard it.

"Not bad." Zou Wenhuai nodded.

Originally, Kars thought that Zou Wenhuai invited him here today because there was a new film that he wanted to send to Hollywood for release.

But he didn't expect that the other party would pay to make a movie with Warner.

At this moment, Karls suddenly remembered that a few days ago, Golden Harvest's rival, Shaw Brothers, announced in a high-profile manner that it would use 800 million US dollars to make a movie that would enter Hollywood.

I'm afraid Zou Wenhuai is not willing to see the other party show off, and plans to join in the fun.

"Of course there is no problem. Warner Bros. and Mr. Zou have had a very pleasant cooperation before. I personally welcome Mr. Zou's attempt."

"We plan to use Jackie Chan as the leading actor in this film, and let Warner take full responsibility for other roles."

After hearing this, Carls realized that Zou Wenhuai wanted to use this opportunity to let Jackie Chan test the waters of Hollywood, to see if he had the possibility of becoming Bruce Lee's second.

Although Kars has watched many Jackie Chan movies before, except for the recent Drunken Master, Kars thinks Jackie Chan's other movies are very average.

But it doesn't matter whether he likes it or not. Anyway, Golden Harvest pays for it. Even if the auction fails, it has nothing to do with him and Warner.

"No problem. I will report this matter to the company immediately. I believe it will not be long before I can give Mr. Zou a satisfactory answer."

"Then I would like to thank Mr. Carls."

Zou Wenhuai smiled and nodded.

After sending Kars away, He Guanchang returned to the office with a worried look on his face.

"Mr. Zou really intends to spend 600 million US dollars to make this movie?"

Zou Wenhuai nodded, he didn't do it on a whim.

Because he has always wanted to enter Hollywood since the time of Bruce Lee.

But it's a pity that so many years have passed, except for Bruce Lee, he has never had a star who can become famous internationally.

Compared with Yuen Biao, Zou Wenhuai felt that Jackie Chan's chances might be greater.

"Shaw Brothers can do this, why wouldn't we at Golden Harvest? If Aaron can become famous in Hollywood, it will be a great help to us at Golden Harvest."

Of course He Guanchang knew that if Jackie Chan could really make a name for himself in Hollywood, it would greatly increase the possibility of Golden Harvest's hope of entering the international market.

Don't look at Golden Harvest's seemingly bright future, but at most it can only achieve a little success in Southeast Asia.

You must know that on the other side of the world at this time, there are still many places waiting for them to explore, and those are areas that have never been explored before.

If Run Run Shaw was allowed to take the first step, it would be basically impossible to catch up with Shaw Brothers in the future.

"Mr. Zou, don't worry, I will try my best to help Aaron open up the situation in Hollywood and make this movie well."

He Guanchang nodded vigorously.

…………

Not long after, Golden Harvest announced in a high-profile manner that it will invest 600 million US dollars and cooperate with Warner Bros. to shoot an action film called "Killer's Trenches".

And the protagonist of this movie is set on Jackie Chan, not Yuen Biao.

Zou Wenhuai's decision immediately caused various gossip to spread frequently.

Everyone agreed that Golden Harvest's most valued actor has shifted from Yuen Biao to Jackie Chan.

Although Yuen Biao was very worried about this, after being enlightened by Sammo Hung, he also understood that now is not the time to be angry.

So Yuen Biao could only turn his grief and anger into strength, ignored the rumors outside, and simply lived on the set.

He has already made up his mind that he must make this "Miscellaneous Boy" a good one.

As long as he can get a better box office result than Jackie Chan, Zou Wenhuai should know who is more suitable to develop in Hollywood.

Compared to the battle between Yuen Biao and Jackie Chan, Lin Daoqiu seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Although Zou Wenhuai filmed "The Killer's Trench" in advance, it was mostly because he was stimulated by himself and Run Run Shaw.

It's a pity that Zou Wenhuai, who is full of ambitions, wants to use this "Killer's Trenches" to open up Hollywood, but he can only return in the end.

Not only can't do anything at the box office, even Jackie Chan hasn't been able to make any splash in Hollywood.
