Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 996
After buying tickets and entering the arena, Lin Daoqiu found that the show was almost full at noon.

It seems that the drama "Plan A" is really popular.

I came to my seat and sat down. Not long after, the lights in the theater began to dim slowly.

When the big screen slowly lit up, "Project A" officially started.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, rampant pirates repeatedly hijacked merchant ships. In order to ensure the smooth flow of waterways, the Xiangjiang government established a marine police department and formulated a plan A to fight against pirates.

Unfortunately, due to the betrayal of the inner ghost, the plan failed repeatedly.

Once Ma Ruhong led the water police to attack, but unfortunately lost again.

As the chief of the marine police, Ma Ruhong resigned angrily when he was framed while performing official duties, and the marine police were disbanded.

At this time, Luo Sanpao, the leader of the pirates, ransacked an English merchant ship and captured the general and his family members on board.

In order to redeem the man, the Xiangjiang authorities approached Zhou Yongling, who had colluded with the pirates, and hoped that he could help.

As a result, during the meeting, Ma Rulong discovered this plan, and he angrily denounced those officials in public.

In the end, Ma Rulong understood the truth and persuaded them to reorganize the marine police.

Then he pretended to be Zhou Yongling, went to Luo Sanpao's lair, and with the help of a group of brothers, he wiped out Luo Sanpao and his henchmen.

When Lin Daoqiu watched this drama in his last life, the leading role was Jackie Chan.

And the leading actor in this life was replaced by Sammo Hung.

Compared with Jackie Chan's sense of justice, Lin Daoqiu always felt that the Ma Rulong played by Sammo Hung was a bit less interesting.

"If Jackie Chan plays the male lead, this drama would be perfect."

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the front seat of Lin Daoqiu, and his thoughts coincided with his own.

"Sammo Hung's acting is very good. If Jackie Chan plays the role, it may not be as good as Sammo Hung."

Lin Daoqiu deliberately raised his hand with the other party.

Hearing someone rebutting himself, that person turned his head and took a look.

But because it was too dark, it was impossible to see clearly who was sitting behind him.

"In terms of skills, the two of them are not much different, but in terms of temperament, Jackie Chan's sense of justice is more obvious than that of Sammo Hung."

Lin Daoqiu also deeply agrees with what the man said, because he has watched "Project A" starring Jackie Chan.

Comparing the two, if Jackie Chan is allowed to act, it is indeed more suitable than Sammo Hung.

But Lin Daoqiu deliberately wanted to carry the other party's shoulders, because he recognized his identity when the other party just turned his head.

"What you said is all hypothetical questions. Now the protagonist of this movie is Sammo Hung, not Jackie Chan. If you want to verify that what you said is true, then you ask Jackie Chan to make a "Project A"."

Lin Daoqiu's words made the other party frowned.

Although he is a director, he can only shoot TV series now, and he hasn't even made a movie.

He wanted to invite Jackie Chan to be his leading actor, but he knew it was impossible after thinking about it.

So he was too lazy to continue arguing with Lin Daoqiu, because he felt that the other party was deliberately finding fault, so why should he waste his tongue.

The conversation between the two did not last, and the movie was drawing to a close.

At the end of the movie, there was thunderous applause.

However, for Lin Daoqiu, it is a pity that several scenes were excluded, such as the bicycle chase and the scene of the clock tower.

These are the most iconic scenes of "Project A", but unfortunately because Jackie Chan is not the leading actor, they were not filmed.

After the movie ended, Lin Daoqiu walked out of the theater, but he didn't leave in a hurry, as if he was waiting for someone.

A few minutes later, when Lin Daoqiu noticed that the other party had walked out of the theater, he immediately waved to that person.

It may be difficult for ordinary people to remember Lin Daoqiu's appearance, but for those who work in the entertainment industry, it is rare that they can't remember it.

Seeing Lin Daoqiu waving at him, the guy's face was full of shock, because he recognized Lin Daoqiu at a glance.

"Mr. Lin, are you looking for me?"

He walked up to Lin Daoqiu and greeted him respectfully, but his mind was completely confused.

He and Lin Daoqiu didn't know each other, and the two of them had never met, so how could he find him?

"Director Du, long time no see. I remember the last time we met we were still in the TVB building."

In fact, Lin Daoqiu and Du Qifeng had never met, but he knew that the other party was the director of TVB, so when he said this, Du Qifeng would naturally not doubt it.

Du Qifeng thought back carefully, but still couldn't remember when he and Lin Daoqiu met.

But since the other party can call out his name, it should be true, but he can't remember it.

"Sorry, I made a joke with Director Du in the theater just now, please forgive me."

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Du Qifeng realized that it was Lin Daoqiu who was arguing with him just now.

"Mr. Lin, don't make fun of me. If I had known it was you, I wouldn't have used an ax in front of you."

Du Qifeng quickly shook his hand.

But Lin Daoqiu looked at him seriously.

"If I say that what you said just now is exactly what I thought, I don't know what Director Du thinks?"

Hearing Lin Daoqiu's words, Du Qifeng was stunned for a moment, and then a joyful expression appeared on his face.

"That's really a hero who sees the same thing."

After Du Qifeng finished speaking, he suddenly felt that his words seemed a little inappropriate.

Doesn't this put Lin Daoqiu in the same position as himself.

Lin Daoqiu didn't have any thoughts about Du Qifeng's words, but asked.

"Is Director Du still on wireless?"

Du Qifeng didn't understand what Lin Daoqiu meant, but he still nodded.

"Have you ever thought about making a movie?"

Hearing Lin Daoqiu's question, Du Qifeng shuddered.

In the last life, the first film directed by To Qifeng was "Clear Water and Cold Mountains Kill Gold".

The reason why he was able to get this opportunity was because his good friend Liu Songren was not only the lead actor of this play, but also the planner.

After receiving Liu Songren's invitation, To Qifeng directed this film, which Lin Daoqiu thought was inexplicable.

And after filming, "Clear Water and Cold Mountain Killing Gold" got a box office of 127 million, ranking 46th in the annual box office.

Johnnie To felt that he lacked experience, so he did not continue to make movies, but returned to TVB to continue exercising.

It was not until 86 that he was invited by Huang Baiming to film the third part of "Happy Ghost", and then slowly began to make his mark in the film industry.
