Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2235 Tsui Hark's Xiaojiujiu
"Miss Zhong, is it convenient for us to chat?"

"Ghost Blowing Lantern" has been completed and will be released in Spring Festival.

As Tsui Hark, who was temporarily transferred by Lin Daoqiu to be the director of this film, he suddenly came to Zhong Chuhong to talk about something.

Zhong Chuhong didn't think much, she agreed directly.

After tidying up, Zhong Chuhong left the set with Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng, and came to a high-end restaurant in the urban area.

"Why did Director Xu suddenly think of inviting me to dinner?"

Zhong Chuhong felt very strange why Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng suddenly thought of inviting her to dinner.

In fact, the reason why Tsui Hark did this was entirely for the upcoming "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern" in the Spring Festival.

This year's Spring Festival stalls are even more intense than last year.

Four films, "The True Colors of Heroes", "God of Gamblers 2", "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" and "The True Colors of Men" will be released.

Even Tsui Hark heard that Lin Daoqiu planned to release the "007" series in the Spring Festival.

If this is the case, then the Spring Festival stalls will be an unpredictable situation.

In addition to "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", "The True Colors of a Hero" is a gunfight film carefully crafted by Tsui Hark. The collision of the two films is a situation that Tsui Hark absolutely does not want to see.

However, it has been a long time since the filming of "The True Colors of Heroes" was completed.

It's just that we left the Spring Festival file, and the next good one will have to wait until the summer file. Tsui Hark is obviously very entangled in this.

But seeing that the Spring Festival was approaching, and there was no news of Lin Daoqiu's return, Tsui Hark could only ask Zhong Chuhong for news.

By the way, I also want to let Lin Daoqiu know my worries through Zhong Chuhong's mouth, which is obviously more appropriate than telling Lin Daoqiu directly.

""Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is in the final stage, and it will basically be completed in another week. Ms. Zhong is the heroine of this play, so I hope that Ms. Zhong can attend the preview."

This was just an excuse Tsui Hark randomly made up.

Because whether Chung Chuhong goes to the screening or not is actually no big deal to Tsui Hark.

"No problem, I don't have any movies to make recently, and I will definitely be there if necessary."

Zhong Chuhong is quite curious about the movie "Ghost Blowing the Lantern". After all, this movie is her first exposure to the shooting of blockbuster special effects.

The previous "Havoc in Heaven" was just a cameo, and she didn't shoot a few scenes, so strictly speaking, "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is Zhong Chuhong's first special effects movie.

"I don't know when Mr. Lin will come back. After all, the filming of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" has already been finished and I haven't had time to show him. I don't know if Mr. Lin will be satisfied with what Lao Xu made."

At this moment, Shi Nansheng suddenly interjected.

Zhong Chuhong immediately replied with a smile.

"He should arrive tomorrow. I will mention this matter to him tomorrow. There should be no problem."

Tsui Hark's eyes flashed brightly when he heard that Lin Daoqiu would be back tomorrow. I'm afraid not many people know about this news, but Zhong Chuhong is obviously an exception.

"Miss Zhong, there is actually something I want to tell you."

Zhong Chuhong nodded when she heard it, and then she immediately realized that Tsui Hark suddenly invited her to dinner today, maybe this was the real intention.

But Zhong Chuhong didn't mean to blame Tsui Hark, because she didn't know what the other party asked her to do.

"Compared with last year, there are a lot of blockbuster movies in the Spring Festival this year. They are all action-oriented movies. I even heard that Mr. Lin will release "007" in the Spring Festival. I don't know if it is true or not. "

Zhong Chuhong shook her head, she didn't know about this, because she didn't care about these things at all.

Unless she took the initiative to ask, Lin Daoqiu was basically unlikely to talk about these things with her on the phone.

"If "007" is also included in this year's Spring Festival, I am worried that the box office may be severely divided by then, and it will be difficult to have a good result like last year's "God of Gamblers" which won 6000 million box office."

Tsui Hark is more worried about the box office performance of his "True Heroes" than "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern".

Because in his opinion, "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern", a blockbuster special effects movie with a bizarre story, is enough to attract the audience's attention.

On the other hand, "Tomorrow" is just an old-fashioned action movie with brotherhood and gunfights, so he is really worried that the show will not perform well at the box office by then.

Not to mention "007", a Hollywood-produced blockbuster, is already beating "A Hero's True Colors" just in terms of production costs.

Therefore, if possible, Tsui Hark really hopes to postpone the release of "The True Colors of Heroes" for a few more months, but he is afraid that he will not be able to convince Lin Daoqiu.

"It's useless for you to tell me about this matter. It's better to go to Manager Li. He should be able to make the decision."

In fact, if Tsui Hark went to Li Maowen to share his thoughts with the other party, then Li Maowen would respect his opinion.

But if this happens, he will ask for a shift period on his own initiative, which is obviously not what Tsui Hark wants to see.

He wanted to use his refund in exchange for Mr. Lin arranging more screens and episodes for "The True Colors of Heroes".

But Tsui Hark was afraid of being spotted by Lin Daoqiu, so he beat around the bush and approached Zhong Chuhong, hoping that she would help to mention it.

As long as Zhong Chuhong is willing to help, Tsui Hark believes that Lin Daoqiu should agree.

"Manager Li has recently been dealing with the publicity of the movie released during the Spring Festival. There are already many complicated things. It may not be appropriate for me to disturb him at this time."

This kind of excuse can only be used to deceive children, and Zhong Chuhong obviously won't be fooled.

However, she could also feel that Tsui Hark must be hiding something to help her, but he refused to say it directly.

"Well, I'll tell Mr. Lin about you when I see him tomorrow, so you're always satisfied."

"Thank you Miss Zhong."

Tsui Hark nodded quickly.

…………

The next day, Lin Daoqiu's plane from LA to Xiangjiang arrived at Kai Tak Airport.

As soon as he got out of the airport, Lin Daoqiu saw Zhong Chuhong wearing sunglasses and standing in front of the car waiting for him.

"If there are reporters showing up at this time, their mouths will definitely smile crookedly."

"Then I won't come to pick you up."

When Zhong Chuhong heard this, she thought Lin Daoqiu didn't want to see her, so she turned her head angrily and got into the car.

Lin Daoqiu quickly followed Zhong Chuhong into the car, and then closed the door.

"What are you thinking? I'm just talking casually. I'm also angry? Have you missed me since I haven't seen you for so long?"

"No, I've been very busy recently. I fell asleep when I got home after filming, and I couldn't think of anyone."

Zhong Chuhong turned her head aside, it seemed that she was a little unhappy because of Lin Daoqiu's words just now.
