Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 881 Can You Persevere?
"Thank you director, I'll toast you with tea instead of wine."

Being able to star in Lin Daoqiu's movie is definitely a great opportunity for Dillon.

Since joining New Oriental, Dillon and others have become less important than when he was at Shaw Brothers.

New Oriental, Sammo Hung and others are the top stars of New Oriental.

And those of them who transferred from Shaw Brothers, although they have been making movies, unfortunately, the box office has not been satisfactory.

Originally, Ti Lung was not the kind of character who likes to compete with others, but until David Jiang played the Jiujianxian in "Legend of Sword and Fairy", his fame began to soar.

If it were someone else, Dillon wouldn't care about it at all, let alone take it to heart.

But that person was David Jiang, which made Dillon a bit unacceptable.

Before David Jiang took over "Legend of Sword and Fairy", the two of them could be said to be as famous as brothers, so no one felt that there was anything wrong.

But now, David Jiang has obviously reached a higher level. If he stays where he is, he is likely to be thrown further and further away by the opponent.

After drinking this cup of tea, Dillon asked enthusiastically.

"Director, is Mr. Lin's "Sentimental Swordsman Ruthless Sword" this film also a special effects movie?"

Although it is not like "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", Ti Lung feels that since Lin Daoqiu is going to shoot "The Swordsman of Love", he will definitely use special effects technology.

But what Di Long didn't expect was that when Chu Yuan and Wang Jing heard his question, they were stunned for a moment.

"Ahem... Aaron, I forgot to tell you that the "Sentimental Swordsman Ruthless Sword" that Mr. Lin is going to shoot is not a movie, but a TV series."

Ti Lung, who was still smiling before, froze the smile on his face after hearing what Chu Yuan said.

What Lin Daoqiu asked him to make was not a movie but a TV series, which made Ti Lung not know what to say for a while.

"The thing is like this, as you know, I was the one who made Xiangjiang's first movie "Sentimental Swordsman Ruthless Sword"."

Chu Yuan explained to Ti Lung: "So when I heard that Mr. Lin was going to adapt this play, I immediately thought of you."

If Lin Daoqiu made a movie, Dillon would be very happy to take this movie.

But when he heard that it was a TV series, it seemed that Dillon was not very happy.

"Brother Long, the TV series made by Mr. Lin have never missed a shot so far. The influence is so great that it is even more powerful than the blockbuster movies."

Wang Jing knew from Ti Lung's appearance that he didn't seem very interested in appearing in TV dramas.

What Wang Jing said was not a lie. Ti Lung himself knew that Lin Daoqiu had always had very good results no matter whether he made TV dramas or movies.

But let him, who is used to filming movies, suddenly go to film TV series, which made him unacceptable for a while.

"Aaron, I know what you're thinking, but you're the protagonist this time, unlike him."

Di Long naturally knew who Chu Yuan was referring to, but he still couldn't agree immediately.

"Director, Ah Jing, thank you for your kindness. I'm afraid I have to go back and think about this matter."

Di Long's words scared Chu Yuan and Wang Jing to death.

In Lin Daoqiu's TV series, there are countless people who want to act, let alone the leading actor.

With such hesitation, if Lin Daoqiu found someone again, Wang Jing and Chu Yuan would be helpless.

"Brother Long, in the film and television drama produced by Mr. Lin, Xiangjiang has countless actors who desperately want to participate in it. To tell you the truth, in fact, this drama has already been decided before, and Xie Xian will play Li Xunhuan."

Wang Jing felt that if Di Long was not allowed to understand how much effort Chu Yuan and him had put in, he would probably continue to hesitate.

"Since Mr. Lin has already found someone, why are you still telling me this? Are you planning to let me compete with the fourth brother for this role?"

Di Long didn't understand what Chu Yuan and Wang Jing meant?
"We have already persuaded the fourth brother to resign from this role, because this drama is a martial arts drama in ancient costume, and you also know that Mr. Lin has high requirements for fighting scenes. The fourth brother resigned because he thought he couldn't stick to it. .”

After Wang Jing said this, Ti Lung realized that it turned out that Wang Jing and Chu Yuan went to persuade Xie Xian to resign from the play because of him.

Ti Lung was very grateful for what Wang Jing and Chu Yuan had done for him.

"Thank you director and Ah Jing, but..."

"But what but? You should act in a few more good film and television dramas while you can still play. You should understand that the older you are, the less chance you can play the leading actor, let alone this is Mr. Lin's film and television drama. drama."

Chu Yuan was so angry that he didn't expect Dillon to be so stubborn and to consider such a great opportunity.

If it were someone else, they would have already agreed, so how could they think about it like this with him.

After being told by Chu Yuan, Di Long lowered his head in shame.

"Brother Long, I think you should take over this drama, it will do you no harm at all."

Chu Yuan and Wang Jing have been patiently persuading Ti Lung.

"If that's the case, then I'll accept the play."

Dillon was obviously persuaded by Chu Yuan and Wang Jing, and he immediately agreed to take the role of Li Xunhuan.

…………

"Brother Long, long time no see, please sit down."

After Ti Lung agreed to take over the role of Li Xun Huan, the next day, Chu Yuan and Wang Jing brought Ti Lung to Lin Daoqiu's office.

"Mr. Lin, Brother Long has agreed to take over the role of Li Xunhuan."

Wang Jing looked like he was asking for credit from Lin Daoqiu.

But the strange thing is that when he finished speaking, Lin Daoqiu didn't seem to have much reaction.

"Look carefully, Brother Long is really suitable for the role of Li Xunhuan, and I'm glad you accept it."

What Lin Daoqiu said sounds a bit lukewarm, and I don't know what he means.

"But Brother Long, there are some things I still want to ask first."

"Mr. Lin, please."

Di Long didn't know what Lin Daoqiu was going to ask.

"Brother Long should have heard it before. I have high requirements for martial arts and action scenes. The movie "Sentimental Swordsman Ruthless Sword" must focus on martial arts. Before the filming of the TV series, the leading actors must undergo high-intensity special Training, Brother Long thinks he... can do it?"

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, it seemed that he felt that Dillon couldn't survive the special training.

For Lin Daoqiu's doubt, Di Lung was not angry, but patted his chest with a smile.

"Mr. Lin, please don't worry. If I can't persevere by then, or if I don't meet the standard, I won't get any remuneration for all the film and television dramas I will shoot in New Oriental in the future."
