Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 470: Police Story

The reason why Sammo Hung hesitated so much was because the person he wanted to recommend was Jackie Chan.

If Yuen Biao knows about his recommendation of Jackie Chan, I'm afraid he will be very unhappy at that time.

But in Sammo Hung's view, Jackie Chan fits the requirements just mentioned by Lin Daoqiu, so he decided to meet with Lin Daoqiu in the end, and mentioned his thoughts to the other party. I have nothing to do with myself.

"Is San Mao okay?"

Lin Daoqiu originally thought that Sammo Hung had something else to discuss with him.

But when Sammo Hung sat down, he seemed to have a hesitant expression on his face, which made people wonder what was wrong with him.

"Mr. Lin, in fact, after you finished those requests just now, I immediately thought of someone, but A Biao is here, so I can't say it in front of him."

It's not easy for Sammo Hung to be a good brother. We grew up together and learned drama and martial arts together. We are following the same master, so the relationship should be very good.

But now because of Jiahe's relationship, the relationship between them is no longer as close as before, which actually makes Sammo Hung very helpless.

"You mean Jackie Chan?"

As soon as Lin Daoqiu heard it, he understood that the person Sammo Hung wanted to recommend to him was Jackie Chan, otherwise he would not have deliberately avoided Yuen Biao and came to talk to himself.

Sammo Hung didn't speak, but he still nodded.

There should be no doubt about Jackie Chan's suitability. The "Police Story" he shot is the most representative action movie in Jackie Chan's film career.

Upholding justice, the upright and kind-hearted Chen Jiaju seems to be the embodiment of justice, and even later some people thought that Chen Jiaju was Jackie Chan's real name.

"I understand, don't worry, I won't mention this matter to others."

Lin Daoqiu's words reassured Hong Jinbao a little. If Yuen Biao knew about it, he would definitely feel unhappy again.

For the sake of the harmonious relationship between their brothers and sisters, Lin Daoqiu naturally wouldn't be so talkative.

"Is Mr. Lin planning to use Aaron as the protagonist of this play?"

From the meaning in Lin Daoqiu's words, he seems to have this meaning.

"Well... Aaron is indeed a good candidate, but I need to think about this matter."

Although Lin Daoqiu said so, it seems that there is no more suitable movie than "Police Story" to promote the Xiangjiang Police Force.

…………

Jackie Chan, who has been filming on the set of Fushan Road, suddenly received a call from Lin Daoqiu, saying that he wanted to invite him to drink tea and chat.

The last time the two met was at the celebration banquet of "A Thousand Kings Fighting Thousand Tyrants", but they didn't say anything at that time, and He Guanchang said everything by himself.

Today, Lin Daoqiu called himself suddenly, which made Jackie Chan feel very confused.

Because usually he and Lin Daoqiu had nothing to do with each other at all, how could the other party suddenly ask him to drink tea.

Jackie Chan, who couldn't figure it out, decided to wait until the time came to see Lin Daoqiu and said, he guessed that it might be that Lin Daoqiu wanted to make a guest appearance in some drama.

When meeting Lin Daoqiu this time, Jackie Chan also brought screenwriter Deng Jingsheng with him, because he was worried that he would not know what to say when facing Lin Daoqiu alone.

Half an hour earlier than the agreed time, Jackie Chan and Deng Jingsheng came to the restaurant to wait for Lin Daoqiu.

"You said that Mr. Lin asked me to meet today, what exactly do you want to talk to me about?"

Jackie Chan was still a little uneasy at this time, because he couldn't guess what Lin Daoqiu wanted him for.

Deng Jingsheng and Lin Daoqiu had never met each other before, so naturally they didn't know what the other party wanted to discuss with Jackie Chan.

"Since Mr. Lin asked you to meet, it shouldn't be a bad thing. Do you think he wants you to act in a movie?"

After Deng Jingsheng said this, he couldn't help but shook his head with a smile.

New Oriental has Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao, and Lin Zhengying. Even if there are action movies, they must be the first choice, and then Jackie Chan may come to mind.

There is no reason for Lin Daoqiu not to find his own people to act, but to find Jackie Chan of Golden Harvest, which is really counterintuitive.

"If Mr. Lin wants to make an action movie, he will definitely look for Senior Brother or A Biao. How could he think of me? I think he might want me to play a cameo role in their movie."

Jackie Chan felt that Lin Daoqiu took the initiative to ask him to meet him, which should be the reason.

"Don't even think about it, Mr. Lin will know when the meeting arrives, but even if Mr. Lin wants to ask you to play a cameo role this time, I think Brother Long should agree."

Jackie Chan would agree to this sentence without Deng Jingsheng saying it. Not everyone can sell Lin Daoqiu's face. Maybe in the future, when he begs Lin Daoqiu himself, it will be easier because of this matter.

Two minutes before the agreed time, Lin Daoqiu and others appeared at the door of the restaurant.

As soon as Jackie Chan saw Lin Daoqiu, he immediately patted Deng Jingsheng on the shoulder, and the two immediately stood up from their chairs.

"Mr. Lin, this is Deng Jingsheng, the screenwriter of my new play."

Lin Daoqiu did not expect to meet Jackie Chan's queen screenwriter here.

Since 1979, Deng Jingsheng has been involved in the creation of scripts. He is the screenwriter of Sammo Hung's "Lin Shirong", Jackie Chan's "Junior and Brother" and "Master Dragon".

Even in a series of classic movies such as "Plan A", "Food Truck", "Police Story", and "The Dragon Detective", you can see Deng Jingsheng's name appearing in the screenwriter line.

It can be seen that this person understands Jackie Chan's characteristics very well, and his script writing skills are also top-notch.

"So it's Mr. Deng, hello."

Lin Daoqiu didn't know much about Deng Jingsheng, he only knew that he would later become the queen screenwriter of Jackie Chan's movie, but at this moment he remembered that "Police Story" seemed to be written by Deng Jingsheng.

"Hello Mr. Lin, it is my honor to meet you here today."

After shaking hands with Lin Daoqiu, Deng Jingsheng seemed to be very happy. After all, Lin Daoqiu is definitely the king of Xiangjiang screenwriters at this time.

Although he is not his idol, Deng Jingsheng still respects Lin Daoqiu from the bottom of his heart.

"Mr. Deng is polite, please sit down, both of you."

After greeting each other, Lin Daoqiu sat down opposite them.

In fact, today he called Jackie Chan to ask him out because he wanted to talk to him about "Police Story".

"Three years ago, I promised Mr. Lu Dingtang, the commissioner of ICAC, to help make a movie and TV series to promote the police force. Now I feel that the time is ripe, so I plan to start making this movie. And the leading actor, I think Ah Dragon fits well."

Before Lin Daoqiu said this, Jackie Chan always thought that the other party asked him out, maybe because he wanted him to play a cameo role in a certain movie.

Even if he had the idea that the other party wanted to ask him to play the leading role, Jackie Chan himself felt that it was impossible.

So when Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, Jackie Chan was completely stunned, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
