MTL - Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire-Chapter 37 Celebration Banquet (Part 2)
…
The first outsider to arrive was Xu Jixin, the editor-in-chief of "Oriental Daily". Seeing Xu Cun standing at the door to welcome the guests, he smiled and said, "Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations to Mr. Xu for becoming the first tens of millions of box office directors in Hong Kong. "
"Thank you Brother Xu, I can't achieve this without the support of you and Mr. Ma." Xu Cun said politely.
"It's all about your ability, Brother Xu. Mr. Ma and I are just the icing on the cake." Xu Jixin waved his hand gently and said.
"By the way, Brother Xu, how's your "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"? "The Journey to the Unreal" is almost over." Xu Jixin said again.
Speaking of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", Xu Cun had a headache!
Ba Sing's "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is indeed a masterpiece, but it is too difficult to adapt it into a movie. And Xu Cun had a dream in his last life - to one day adapt "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" into a movie.
Therefore, in order to facilitate the adaptation of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" into a movie, many scenes and plots in the original work had to be greatly changed.
In this way, it takes more time.
Plus, Xu Cun has been busy recently.
So, up to now, Xu Cun has written less than 50,000 words.
Facing Xu Jixin's urging, Xu Cun could only be slightly embarrassed and said, "This book needs a lot of environmental descriptions, and I'm too busy, so it's not progressing quickly. Well, don't change "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" twice a day, Let’s change it once a day. In the vacant page, you can write another novel by someone else. I’ll hurry up and make sure to keep updating it.”
From the moment he learned that Xu Cun's "Happy Ghost" could earn 10,000 to 20 million yuan, Xu Jixin knew that Xu Cun would no longer be able to write novels honestly. Therefore, Xu Jixin is already satisfied with the assurance of Xu Cun's constant change.
After handing over Xu Jixin to Shi Nansheng, Xu Cun welcomed the second guest, director Li Hanxiang.
Li Hanxiang was seriously ill recently, and Xu Cun sent him the invitation only out of courtesy, and did not expect him to come. However, what Xu Cun did not expect was that Li Hanxiang actually came in person dragging his seriously ill body.
Xu Cun quickly went up to him and helped Li Hanxiang to walk in slowly. He said with a slight reproach, "Uncle Xiang, why did you come here in person? Your body..."
"It's nothing major, I've been lying down for a long time and my body is stiff, so I just came over to move around." Li Hanxiang said.
"What did the doctor say?" Xu Cun asked with concern.
"The doctor suggested that I go to the United States for surgery. However, I'm afraid that I won't be able to come back. So, before I go to the United States, I want to go back to the mainland to have a look." Li Hanxiang said in a relaxed tone.
Xu Cun knew that Li Hanxiang didn't delay his illness because he went to the mainland first, but he still advised: "Uncle Xiang, as long as your illness can be operated on in time, you will be fine. You don't have to rush back to the mainland..."
Li Hanxiang had already made up his mind about returning to the mainland. Before Xu Cun finished his persuasion, he interrupted Xu Cun and said, "I have made up my mind, so don't persuade me any more. By the way, I haven't congratulated you on becoming the first ten million director of Xiangjiang. Congratulations, Cun young!"
"Thank you Uncle Xiang, without your support, I wouldn't be where I am today." Xu Cun said.
"It's you who has the ability... To be honest, I originally planned to accept you as an apprentice, but I didn't expect that you would become the first director of the Hong Kong box office with millions of dollars before I started the show." Li Hanxiang So sad.
"Uncle Xiang, if you are willing, I will take you as my teacher now." Xu Cun said seriously.
With Li Hanxiang's status in the film industry, it is not shameful for Xu Cun to worship him as his teacher. On the contrary, Xu Cun can also borrow some of Li Hanxiang's connections and prestige. Therefore, if Li Hanxiang is willing, Xu Cunzhen will worship him as his teacher.
After hearing Xu Cun's words, Li Hanxiang was very pleased. However, he refused without hesitation: "With your current reputation as a top box office director, it would be inappropriate for me to accept you as an apprentice. Besides, I have nothing to teach you. Let's be one of them. Let’s make friends with each other.”
Immediately, Li Hanxiang changed his tone and asked, "How are you and that girl Qingxia? I remember you seem to like her?"
"I haven't seen her since our production team finished." Xu Cun said.
Since that night, Xu Cun has indeed never seen Lin Qingxia again. Although Xu Cun would write a joke to Lin Qingxia and mail it every once in a while, he never received a reply from Lin Qingxia.
Recently, Xu Cun has been considering whether to go to Taipei to find Lin Qingxia in person.
"Qingxia is a good girl, she is very spiritual, and you are so talented. You are a match made in heaven. I hope you can come together." Li Hanxiang said again.
Xu Cun said nothing, but said in his heart, "Uncle Xiang, I will definitely fulfill your wish, Qingxia can't escape from my palm!"
The two chatted and walked to the table. Then, Xu Cun handed Li Hanxiang over to Zhang Guozhong to take care of him. After that, we went to welcome the guests again.
Then came Li Zhu's family. Xu Cun had a conversation with Li Zhu and Li's wife, teased Li Zhi and Li Ying for a while, and then arranged for Li Wo to entertain their family.
To be honest, Xu Cun didn't know until recently that Li Zhu's daughter, Li Zhi, was the little Jitter in "Young and Dangerous" and Li Kui, who played Zhao Min in Wu Qihua's version of "Eternal Dragon Slayer". UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
Actually, it's not that Xu Cun is clumsy - last year, when Xu Cun first met Li Kui, Li Kui was only six years old. The question is, how could Xu Cun lean a six-year-old **** that **** beauty?
If it wasn't for the fact that he accidentally knew the name of lychee some time ago, perhaps Xu Cun still didn't know that lychee was Li Kee.
Not long after Li's family was settled, Zhao Zhenqiang and Zhou Runfa walked out of the building together.
Xu Cun greeted Zhao Zhenqiang and chatted a few times about his new play. Then, Xu Cun turned his head to Zhou Runfa and said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Afa, one day you are tired of TV dramas, come to my DreamWorks, I will definitely make you a first-line movie star."
Since the completion of "Shanghai Bund", Zhou Runfa has become a popular student of TVB. TVB not only arranged several TV series for him, but Shaw Brothers also arranged several movies for him. Therefore, it is impossible for Zhou Runfa to come to DreamWorks now.
However, smart people know to leave a way out for themselves. Therefore, Zhou Runfa said with a smile: "If there is a show suitable for me, please also ask Mr. Xu to think about me."
At this moment, Wang Hongbing came.
Wang Hongbing represents not only himself, but also Shao Yifu, so he is the heaviest among the guests invited by Xu Cun today.
So, seeing Wang Hongbing coming, Xu Cun immediately handed Zhao Zhenqiang and Zhou Runfa to Shi Nansheng to entertain, while he himself greeted Wang Hongbing...
…
After the guests arrived, Xu Cun raised his glass and said, "Welcome everyone to come to the celebration banquet of "Happy Ghost" with over 10 million box office..."
