Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 452
"Crack..."

After Mel, Lin Qingxia and others escaped from the Pharaoh's tomb, the filming of "The Mummy" was successfully completed.

Lin Daoqiu also came to the scene that day and witnessed the birth of this scene from beginning to end.

Although the scene of "The Mummy" has been completed, in the next few months, the film will enter the stage of post-production.

It is completely different from the films that Lin Daoqiu has shot before, this time the post-production time will be as long as half a year, and it may even be longer.

Technically, Lin Daoqiu's "The Mummy" has no way to compare with the "Mummy" starring Brendan Fraser in the previous life in terms of special effects.

However, Lin Daoqiu will not be obsessed with reaching that level, because with the current level of technology, it is simply impossible to do.

"it is finally over."

After Mel Gibson said this, he felt a lot lighter all of a sudden.

Over the past six months, after Mel Gibson finished filming "The Mummy", there seems to be a radical change in his whole being.

In terms of action performance, he has been much more agile than before. After half a year, it can be said that he has filmed the hardest scene in his acting career so far.

But all of this has passed, and now Mel Gibson can be regarded as an action actor.

"Congratulations Mel, I didn't expect you to make it to the end."

Lin Daoqiu really didn't expect that this guy could persist from the beginning to the end, and he was also recognized by Yuan Heping and Sammo Hung.

"Mr. Lin, I actually didn't expect that I could do this, but it seems to be okay now."

Although Mel doesn't know how much box office results this movie will get in the end, the action experience accumulated in "The Mummy" will definitely be of great help to him in other types of movies in the future.

"The post-production of this drama may take half a year or even longer. If possible, I believe we will be able to see the release of this drama during Christmas."

The Christmas and New Year holidays are the most important schedule in North America, and Lin Daoqiu also believes that after the achievements of "Home Alone", this year's Christmas schedule is at least in terms of screen allocation, so he doesn't need to worry about anything.

Moreover, Langmeyer had already agreed with himself that after the post-production of "The Mummy" is over, Universal will do its best to promote the movie so that Lin Daoqiu doesn't need to worry about these things, all he needs to do is make the movie well.

"Although I haven't been able to see the finished film yet, I believe this drama will definitely be very popular."

Mel Gibson seems to have great trust in Lin Daoqiu. He feels that with so many excellent staff gathered together, there is no reason why "The Mummy" will be bad.

After a brief chat with Mel Gibson, Lin Daoqiu walked over to Brigitte Lin who was on the side.

"I'm afraid you'll be staying in Treasure Island for a while."

Lin Daoqiu had previously promised that Baodao would let Brigitte Lin go back to make military education films, and he had already mentioned this matter to Brigitte Lin before.

"The filming on Treasure Island shouldn't take long, and it should be finished in a few months."

That movie is going to be released in October, and now there is less than half a year left, so the time is still a bit tight.

"It's okay, just stay there and film the movie obediently. If I'm free then, I'll go and see you."

Although Lin Daoqiu said so, Lin Qingxia felt that it was better for him not to go to Baodao during this time, lest if something inexplicable happened, her little heart would not be able to bear it.

On the other side, Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao and others were standing together and chatting. After "The Mummy" was finished, Yuen Biao could start shooting his new film.

But before that, they had to go to Baodao to finish shooting the military education film, and then they had time to do their own things.

"Mr. Lin..."

After Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin chatted for a while, Sammo Hung and the others walked over together.

"Everyone has worked hard for more than half a year, and you should drink a few more glasses in the evening."

Because the celebration banquet of "The Mummy" is unlikely to be held in Xiangjiang, the only thing that can be held is the finale banquet, so Lin Daoqiu personally arranged the wine, intending to call all the crew to be lively.

"Since it's Mr. Lin's treat, of course we won't miss it. We must drink enough tonight."

…………

The next morning, Lin Daoqiu got up from the bed and felt that he hadn't recovered.

He had been persuaded to drink at the finale banquet last night, and he didn't know how many drinks he drank, and Lin Daoqiu couldn't even remember how he came back in the end.

"You're up."

Brigitte Lin didn't drink much wine last night, so she got up early. After seeing Lin Daoqiu going downstairs, she poured him a glass of boiled water and handed it over.

After drinking the boiled water in the cup, Lin Daoqiu felt that he finally came back to life.

"Did I get drunk last night?"

Lin Daoqiu couldn't remember what happened after yesterday at all. What he could vaguely remember was that he fell asleep in bed after returning home.

"It's not just very drunk, it's a mess."

"When are you going to leave?"

Lin Daoqiu naturally asked when Lin Qingxia would return to Baodao.

"Well... two or three days later, I have to go back after dealing with the rest of the matter."

As the protagonist of this military education film, Lin Qingxia naturally had to go back early, without her, it would be really difficult to shoot.

"After you finish filming this movie, the promotion work for "The Mummy" should be about to start. At that time, we will go to North America first, and then we will travel around Europe after the promotion. What do you think?"

Brigitte Lin was very happy when she heard that. Although she and Lin Daoqiu traveled to many countries before, it was all because of the promotion of the movie, and they basically didn't play much.

Speaking of which, she has not traveled alone with Lin Daoqiu until now, so Lin Daoqiu's proposal immediately received a very positive response from Brigitte Lin.

"That's what you said, don't say that you don't have time then, this trip I'm going to Rome, Paris, London and..."

Brigitte Lin started counting the countries she wanted to visit with her fingers. It seemed that she planned to travel all over Europe on this trip.
