Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 309 Who Should I Find To Act?
"I am very grateful to Mr. Lin for giving me this opportunity, but my beard has been with me for so many years. If I want to shave it off, I can't accept it."

Chen Xunqi's attitude is very clear, it's okay to let him act in this drama, but if he wants to shave his beard, he can only refuse Lin Daoqiu's invitation.

Speaking of which, Lin Daoqiu never saw Chen Xunqi without a beard in his last life. It seems that the iconic mustache has followed him since the first time he saw him.

But this time Chen Xunqi is going to play Lin Zhengying's apprentice. If he is allowed to play the role of this young man with a beard, it will inevitably make people feel against harmony.

After all, Chen Xunqi is already 28 years old this year, and Lin Zhengying is one year younger than him.

Although Lin Zhengying looks very old, it would be no problem to wear a beard after makeup, but it would be even better if Chen Xunqi could shave off his beard.

The role of Qiusheng requires young people who can fight. Although it is easy to replace, Lin Daoqiu can't think of anyone who is more suitable for this role.

Speaking of which, Yuen Biao was a good choice, and if he was hired, the box office would definitely be more guaranteed, but Lin Daoqiu still couldn't make up his mind to let Yuen Biao play the role. After all, the real protagonist of this movie is Lin Zhengying.

"Why are you always frowning recently? Have you encountered any troubles?"

Zhao Yazhi noticed that Lin Daoqiu would frown from time to time when he was thinking about things these days.

"It's not the "Mr. Zombie" movie. Lin Zhengying's apprentice has been unable to find a suitable candidate. He originally found Chen Xunqi, but he refused to pluck his beard. Now I can't find a more suitable candidate. "

After listening to Lin Daoqiu's words, Zhao Yazhi realized that Lin Daoqiu was worried about this matter recently.

However, she didn't have any good solutions. After all, Lin Daoqiu definitely knew many more actors than her.

In addition, Run Run Shaw ordered Shaw Brothers' actors not to appear in New Oriental's movies, so Lin Daoqiu had fewer people to choose from.

If Run Run Shaw hadn't given this order, Lin Daoqiu would definitely have more choices.

For example, people like David Jiang, Wang Yu, and Fu Sheng in Shaw Brothers can play the role of Qiu Sheng well if they are picked at random.

"Is it that the conditions you asked for are too high, why don't you try lowering some conditions?"

On the one hand, Zhao Yazhi helped Lin Daoqiu rub his head, trying to relieve his pressure, and on the other hand, she also helped him find a way.

"My conditions are not high. I just need to be young, handsome and know how to kung fu. Is it difficult to meet such conditions?"

Lin Daoqiu really couldn't think of any good solution, if not, he could only remove Qian Xiaohao's role and let Xu Guanying and Chen Youlai be Lin Zhengying's apprentices.

But if you do this, you have to go to Zhong Chuhong's role and find another actress to play the female ghost, and the emotional scene will unfold between Chen You and the female ghost.

After careful consideration, this may be the best way now, but if this is changed, the plot will be greatly changed.

"Forget it, Yuen Biao will be Yuen Biao."

Lin Daoqiu seemed too lazy to change the script, so he made up his mind to invite Yuan Biao to play the role of Qiusheng.

Originally, Zhao Yazhi thought that this matter would pass like this, but unexpectedly, after a few minutes, Lin Daoqiu shook his head again.

It seems that he still can't make up his mind to let Yuen Biao play this role.

We must know that this film will be filmed in several parts. If Yuen Biao has no free time, or Golden Harvest deliberately delays him to act, wouldn't it be that he will have to find another candidate at that time.

But the audience has already identified Yuen Biao, and if the time comes to change, there may be unknown effects, so Lin Daoqiu can't make up his mind.

"There must be a way for the car to reach the mountain. Don't be so troubled. It would be great if your relationship with Uncle Liu didn't change. Not to mention Shaw Brothers, there are many excellent actors in the wireless training class."

Zhao Yazhi just said it casually, but she didn't mean to let Lin Daoqiu take the initiative to bow to Run Run Shaw.

But after she finished speaking, Lin Daoqiu suddenly raised his head and looked at her.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

Zhao Yazhi thought she said something that made Lin Daoqiu unhappy.

Lin Daoqiu shook his head first, then a happy smile appeared on his face.

"It's nothing. Since I can't find anyone from Shaw Brothers, I can go to Li's to try my luck. It's not only TVB in Hong Kong that has artist training classes."

After Zhao Yazhi mentioned it, Lin Daoqiu realized that Li's also has artist training classes.

But because of Zhong Chuhong's relationship, he has never paid attention to it, but now maybe he can try his luck.

If there is really no other way, at worst, you can choose someone from Li.

…………

"Why is Mr. Lin free to come over today? Are you planning to make a third TV series?"

Although Huang Xizhao said so, he actually knew very well that it was impossible for Lin Daoqiu to let him film a TV series in person.

Moreover, the previous two films had already brought huge profits to Li's, it was up to Lin Daoqiu to decide when the third film would be filmed, or whether it would be filmed or not.

"Actually, I came here today to see if Li's has a suitable actor. I haven't been able to find a suitable actor for a movie recently."

Huang Xizhao nodded while listening. Originally, he expected that Lin Daoqiu would come to talk about the third TV series, but now it seems that this TV series is really far away.

"I'll ask Ah Xiong to show Mr. Lin around. I believe Mr. Lin already knows most of Li's actors, except those who are still in the artist training class."

Not long after Huang Xizhao finished speaking, Mai Dangxiong opened the door and walked in. When he saw Lin Daoqiu, Mai Dangxiong was obviously taken aback.

"Director Mai, we haven't seen each other for a long time."

It seems that Lin Daoqiu and Mai Dangxiong haven't seen each other for a long time.

"Mr. Lin, you are welcome. You are now Xiangjiang's film tycoon. If you have the opportunity in the future, you can support me."

Although it sounds like Mai Dangxiong is just joking, Lin Daoqiu is very clear that Mai Dangxiong will definitely not just talk casually.

At this time, Mai Dangxiong already has the idea of ​​leaving Lidi to enter the film industry. If he can get the support of Lin Daoqiu, it will be a great help for him.

"Director Mai, you're being polite. If you need anything in the future, feel free to contact me. After all, we fought side by side together back then."

Lin Daoqiu didn't mind giving McDonald some chances, because this guy is still very good at making realistic movies.

It's a pity that the themes he chose are not very popular with the public, so it's hard to do anything good in terms of box office results.

But at this time, Mai Dangxiong didn't know what Lin Daoqiu thought of him, so after hearing the other party's answer, Mai Dangxiong couldn't help being secretly happy.
