Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 497 Is he idle?
After Shi Wenyan returned to TVB, she immediately reported to Fang Yathua everything Lin Daoqiu had done and what she had said to her.

When she heard that Lin Daoqiu was going to help TVB make a TV series, although Fang Yihua felt very strange, she was still a little happy in her heart.

"Is Mr. Lin very busy recently? And even if he really wants to shoot a TV series, shouldn't he be doing it for ATV? Why did he come to our side?"

Fang Yihua really couldn't figure out what purpose Lin Daoqiu had in doing this?
Moreover, according to Shi Wenyan, the protagonist of Lin Daoqiu's play is a young man who has just entered the artist training class.

Although the more she thought about it, the more she felt strange, but if Fang Yihua was asked to refuse this matter now, I believe she would also disagree.

After all, the ratings and box office of the film and television drama written by Lin Daoqiu are there. He has never missed a shot, and he has no reason to reject him.

After thinking about it for a while, Fang Yat-hua still decided to agree to cooperate with Lin Daoqiu this time, it's just a TV series, even if the filming fails, it's not a big problem for TVB.

"What is Mr. Lin's request?"

What Fang Yihua wanted to know now was what request Lin Daoqiu made.

"Mr. Lin said that he hoped that this film would receive the full support of TVB. There is no upper limit on the budget. He can decide what to shoot, and no one else is allowed to intervene."

"This kid is still as rampant as before, and his temper really hasn't changed."

Having dealt with Lin Daoqiu several times, Fang Yihua seemed to have gotten used to Lin Daoqiu's temper, and the demands he made seemed so normal to Fang Yihua.

"By the way, how much does he plan to pay?"

Fang Yihua suddenly remembered that this is a TV series rather than a movie. The calculation of the TV station's income from this drama is very complicated. Naturally, it is impossible to distribute it to Lin Daoqiu according to the share, so it can only be paid to him. .

"Mr. Lin's remuneration... He said that 200 million would be fine."

After Shi Wenyan finished speaking, she immediately saw Fang Yihua's eyes slowly widening, which was not a good omen.

Asked TVB to pay him 200 million yuan to make a TV series, only Lin Daoqiu dared to offer such a price, if it was someone else, Fang Yihua would scold him to death.

"200 million? I'm afraid Mr. Lin has made too many movies and doesn't understand the market of TV dramas at all. Go and tell him that TVB can only pay him 50 yuan for this movie. If it doesn't work, forget it."

For Fang Yihua, 50 is considered a sky-high price for TVB. You must know that at this time, whether it is a screenwriter or a director, it is already very impressive to get a remuneration of [-] to [-] for a film.

Although Fang Yihua knew very well that even if they spent 200 million to invite Lin Daoqiu, they would still make a lot of money, but the problem was that it was not a movie but a TV series, and the income was not that exaggerated.

"Okay Miss Fang, I know what to tell Mr. Lin."

After Shi Wenyan finished speaking, she was about to turn around and leave Fang Yihua's office, but Fang Yihua stopped her just as she lifted her foot.

"When you talk to Mr. Lin, you must be careful and try to get him to agree. If it is really not possible, you can add a little bit, but it must not exceed 100 million."

Fang Yihua didn't want to mess up this matter, if Lin Daoqiu could agree to it with a price of 50, it would be the best for Fang Yihua.

In Lin Daoqiu's view, Fang Yihua wanted to lower the price, which was completely normal, so when he heard Shi Wenyan say this on the phone, Lin Daoqiu was not surprised at all.

"Since this is the case, let's make it 88. It's a good luck. If it doesn't work, then I will go to ATV to shoot."

Lin Daoqiu randomly gave an amount.

"No problem, Mr. Lin, just as you said, 88."

Shi Wenyan quickly agreed, she didn't think that Lin Daoqiu was retreating to advance, but he could do this without any doubt.

"The director asked Li Tiansheng to be the actor. As for the actors of this film, I will choose them myself. That's it. I'm still busy and I'll hang up first."

After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly.

Shi Wenyan on the other end of the phone hadn't had time to finish her sentence when she heard a beeping sound coming from the phone.

…………

In addition to the protagonist of a good TV series, other roles are also very important.

After choosing Andy Lau as the leading role in this drama, Lin Daoqiu still had to find a few suitable supporting roles, and the person he wanted to choose was naturally from the inside of TVB.

The next day, Lin Daoqiu came to TVB.

As soon as he got out of the car, he saw Shi Wenyan and Li Tiansheng standing at the door waiting for him.

"Producer Li, I have admired your name for a long time."

Lin Daoqiu stepped forward and extended his hand to Li Tiansheng.

Li Tiansheng quickly shook hands with Lin Daoqiu, with a bright smile on his face.

Yesterday, when Li Tiansheng finished filming the drama and was about to go home from get off work, he was suddenly called to Fang Yathua's office to discuss matters.

When he heard Lin Daoqiu named him to be the director of the show, Li Tiansheng had countless question marks in his mind.

Because he and Lin Daoqiu didn't have any friendship at all before that, how the other party would find him to be the director of this play made Li Tiansheng think hard and didn't understand.

Just because Lin Daoqiu named him as the director, Li Tiansheng didn't have a good rest all night after returning home, and his eyes were still a little dark when he woke up in the morning.

Before Lin Daoqiu came, Li Tiansheng asked Shi Wenyan specifically, but the other party didn't know why Lin Daoqiu made such a decision, and just told him not to be impatient.

"Mr. Lin is too polite. I don't have a big name. It's my honor to assist you in filming this time."

Li Tiansheng is very clear that although Lin Daoqiu named him to be the director, he believes that he does not have much room to play as a director in this drama.

The script of this drama was written by Lin Daoqiu, and he only needs to follow the script to shoot, and he should not interfere with other things.

"Just let Producer Li accompany me, and I won't bother Miss Shi."

It seemed that Lin Daoqiu had something to talk to Li Tiansheng, Shi Wenyan immediately nodded in agreement.

"If that's the case, then I'll go up first. If Mr. Lin has anything to do, just tell Supervisor Li directly. If he can't handle it, you can also ask me."

After Shi Wenyan finished speaking, she turned and left, leaving only Li Tiansheng and Lin Daoqiu behind.

"Producer Li, let's go to your office to chat."

Lin Daoqiu never thought about talking about the show with Li Tiansheng in the lobby.

Li Tiansheng nodded quickly when he heard it, and then made a gesture of invitation to Lin Daoqiu, and then took Lin Daoqiu to his office.
