Hong Kong variety show: My Boss, Thirteen Sister

Upon hearing Jiang Lai's arrangement, Sunny and the others breathed a sigh of relief and kept apologizing to Jiang Lai before quickly leaving the scene.

Jiang Lai didn't intend to make a big deal out of it. In the end, it was just a misunderstanding, and a small punishment would suffice.

"Brother Lai, the office is over there. Shall we go inside and sit down?" Hua asked Jiang Lai in a questioning tone.

"Okay!" Jiang Lai nodded.

Andy Lau prepared to lead Jiang Lai and his group toward the office.

Seeing this, Yin Tianchou prepared to leave silently.

"Mr. Yin!" Jiang Lai called out to Yin Tianchou, waving his hand and saying, "Come on over!"

"what!"

"Oh well!!"

The director and lead actress Du Juan'er looked at Yin Tianchou with some surprise, wondering about the relationship between Yin Tianchou and Jiang Lai.

The group arrived at the office, and Jiang Lai glanced around at it.

The office was simply furnished, with movie posters and stills hanging on the walls, and documents and a computer on the desk.

Fortunately, the space is not small; there are sofas and coffee tables on the inside of the office, so that a group of people can sit down.

After Jiang Lai sat down, he invited Yin Tianchou to sit next to him.

"How have you been lately?" Jiang Lai asked Hua Zai first.

"Everything is going smoothly, and the movie we've been preparing for has already started filming!" Andy Lau responded.

At the same time, she introduced Jiang Lai, "This is Du Juan'er, the queen of film and television. The movie we are currently filming is also tailor-made for her."

When Du Juan'er saw Hua Zai introducing her to Jiang Lai, she stood up and greeted Jiang Lai respectfully, "Hello, Brother Lai!"

"Hmm!" Jiang Lai replied casually.

Then he turned to Yin Tianchou and said, "Tianchou, I have an idea."

"I'm planning to make a movie and I'm thinking of inviting you to be the lead actor. I wonder if you'd be interested?" Jiang Lai asked Yin Tianchou with great interest.

"Huh?" Yin Tianchou looked at Jiang Lai in disbelief.

"I?"

"Lead actor?" Yin Tianchou pointed to himself, looking puzzled.

“Yes, I think you’re the perfect choice for the lead role in this movie!” Jiang Lai replied confidently to Yin Tianchou.

Jiang Lai's words caused everyone else to stare at Yin Tianchou with bewildered expressions.

They couldn't see anything special about Yin Tianchou that made Jiang Lai value him so much.

Yin Tianchou had the same question, and touched his cheek, unable to resist his curiosity.

Is it because I'm too handsome?

Yin Tianchou muttered to himself.

"Mr. Jiang, if I may ask, why is it that I am the only one who can be chosen?"

Yin Tianchou was a little incredulous. Just a quarter of an hour ago, he had been rejected by the crew and told to get lost.

Now Jiang Lai has actually invited him to star in another film!

"this………!"

"because…!"

Jiang Lai was a little speechless. He couldn't possibly imagine that the movie in his mind was actually starring you in his past life!

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Lai had a flash of inspiration and said seriously, "Because when I first saw Mr. Yin, I noticed that you have extraordinary bones and a spiritual energy that runs from the soles of your feet straight to the top of your head. You must be a performing prodigy!"

"Really?"

"Yes!" Jiang Lai affirmed.

"Do you think so too?" Yin Tianchou stared wide-eyed at Jiang Lai with an exaggerated expression.

“Well, I have an idea. I’ve been looking for a suitable actor to play the role, and I think you have a lot of potential. Would you like to give it a try?” Jiang Lai continued.

"Of course!"

"I wonder what kind of movie Mr. Jiang plans to make?" Yin Tianchou was very surprised and excited after hearing Jiang Lai's words.

"Make a kung fu movie!"

"Kung Fu Movie?"

"Yes, let's call the movie 'Kung Fu'!"

Chapter 165 I Have High Hopes for You

When Yin Tianchou heard Jiang Lai's words, he realized that Jiang Lai didn't seem to be joking.

He immediately became interested, his eyes shining as he stared at Jiang Lai and said, "Mr. Jiang, could you tell me more about it?"

Apart from Yin Tianchou, everyone else, including Hua Zai, looked at Jiang Lai with puzzled expressions.

They didn't know if Jiang Lai was really planning to produce a movie himself, or if he was just talking nonsense.

After all, this was Jiang Lai's first time on a film set. He arrived, grabbed someone at random, and declared he wanted to make a movie and cast them as the lead. Even more outrageous, Jiang Lai didn't even have a script; he said he wanted to make a kung fu movie, and what's more, he simply named it: 'Kung Fu!!'

How unreliable is this?

Based on these behaviors, it's clear that they all harbored doubts about Jiang Lai's plans to make a movie.

Even Gang Sheng thought that this might just be Jiang Lai's whim.

However, since Jiang Lai is the boss, when he says he wants to make a movie, even if the others remain skeptical, they won't say much, let alone dare to stand up and oppose it.

“Of course! Let me tell you, although I can’t write scripts, my head is full of plots.” Jiang Lai continued Yin Tianchou’s words, preparing to tell the plot in his mind.

He had watched the movie Kung Fu at least ten times in his previous life, and he was quite clear about the plot.

Just as Jiang Lai was about to begin recounting the plot, he suddenly remembered something and turned his head to look in Du Juan'er's direction.

Everyone assumed Jiang Lai was looking at Du Juan'er, but unexpectedly, Jiang Lai directly addressed the man next to Du Juan'er, saying, "Hey you... the director, right?"

The director was taken aback, then quickly replied, "Yes...yes!"

"Find a notebook and a pen!" Jiang Lai instructed him.

"Okay...okay!" The director didn't know what Jiang Lai was going to do, and responded subconsciously.

Immediately, he pulled out a small notebook from his person, and then pulled out a pen from a small cloth bag on his chest.

In less than half a minute, all the tools Jiang had ordered were ready.

Jiang Lai's eyes lit up upon seeing this; this guy's got some skills!

"When I'm speaking later, write down everything I say, understand?" Jiang Lai pointed at the instructor and instructed him.

As the saying goes, a bad pen is worse than a good memory. After thinking it over, Jiang Lai felt that he should have someone record the plot he was telling so that he wouldn't have to repeat it too much.

"Huh?" The director was taken aback and subconsciously exclaimed.

"Bullshit! I told you to memorize it, so memorize it!!" Fly slapped him on the back of the head, giving him a hard slap in the butt.

The fly's slap wasn't hard; it just buried the director's head for a moment.

After looking up, the director reluctantly replied, "Oh!"

Although he was the director on set and had absolute authority, he couldn't afford to offend anyone in this office.

Seeing this, Jiang Lai didn't say anything more.

As for why Jiang Lai chose him, it was because among everyone present, he was the only one who looked like a cultured person.

After making preparations, Jiang Lai began to narrate the plot of the movie "Kung Fu".

Based on his memories, Jiang Lai vividly recounted how the sly and cunning hoodlum Ah Xing initially appeared, occasionally throwing out a classic joke that made everyone in the office burst into laughter.

By the time Jiang Lai had finished recounting his story, no one doubted the authenticity of his plan to make this film.

Inside the office, the occasional strange cries of Yin Tianchou and the rustling sound of the director's pens as he wrote furiously could be heard.

Whenever Jiang talked about some plot points that he was not clear about, Yin Tianchou would even occasionally express his own opinions.

He had his own understanding of the plot development, dialogue, and character settings, and became more and more excited as he listened to Jiang Lai's narration.

What impressed Jiang Lai was that the plot that Yin Tianchou had imagined perfectly overlapped with the plot in Jiang Lai's mind.

Jiang Lai then recounted the entire story of how Ah Xing transformed from an unknown hoodlum into a peerless master, engaged in a fierce battle with the Fire Cloud Evil God, and ultimately defeated the ultimate killer king, the Fire Cloud Evil God.

It wasn't until Jiang Lai recounted the entire plot of Kung Fu that the crowd, still somewhat engrossed in the exciting story, snapped out of their reverie and began to look at Jiang Lai with a different gaze.

Only one person was already drenched in sweat from exhaustion!

"Phew!" The director put down his pen and placed the notebook on the coffee table.

He swung his arms forcefully and exhaled a long breath, as if he had exhausted all his energy.

"Mr. Jiang, I have another question!" Yin Tianchou pondered the plot Jiang Lai had described and raised a question to Jiang Lai.

"Go ahead!" Jiang Lai gestured for him to speak directly.

"It's exactly what you requested, to realistically show the scene where Fire Cloud Evil God catches a bullet with his bare hands. With the current filming technology, it might not be easy to present that scene!" Yin Tianchou said, offering his opinion as he pondered.

"You don't need to worry about that. I've already chosen someone for the role of Fire Cloud Evil God. I guarantee the footage will be realistic enough!" Jiang Lai said confidently.

"Mr. Jiang, could I play the female lead in this movie?!" Hearing Jiang Lai and Yin Tianchou's conversation, Du Juan'er couldn't help but ask, as she was also moved by the movie's plot.

Although she was only playing a mute girl and didn't have a single line, Du Juan'er still wanted to give it a try.

"You?" Jiang looked at Du Juan'er and gently shook his head.

Although Du Juan'er's appearance was not bad, he had a preconceived notion and did not intend to let Du Juan'er play the female lead.

So he said, "I heard that the movie being filmed now is built around you. So you should focus on filming this movie. I'll find someone else to play the female lead in Kung Fu!"

"Well... alright!" Hearing Jiang Lai's refusal, Du Juan'er was a little disappointed, but thinking that Jiang Lai's words did make sense, she didn't say anything more.

"What about the director? Can I direct this movie?" The director couldn't help but interject at this point. He had recorded the entire plot and was very optimistic about the kung fu movie.

“I already have a better candidate for director!” Jiang Lai also rejected his request.
