392. Please or not please(1/2)
Master Shao Liu was waiting for them at Cuihua Restaurant on Shanding Road, Xiangjiang.
Before they arrived, a pot of tea, a bowl of pork liver porridge, a tray of chicken feet, and a basket of roasted wheat.
"Young Master Su, is here?" Seeing Su Budong and Wang Yue sitting in front of him, Master Shao Liu was not anxious and slow, scooped up a spoonful of porridge, blew it gently, and put it into his mouth.
"Sit down, don't be polite." Master Shao Liu called the two of them to take their seats.
A waiter brought a hot-faced towel and handed it to the two of them. They wiped their hands and placed it on the table. Someone sent the menu. Su Budong didn't think much about it: "Three bowls of peeled egg porridge, 2 portions of rice noodles, 2 portions of shrimp dumplings, 2 portions of money and belly, 2 portions of soy sauce and yellow fried noodles, thank you."
Wang Yue pulled Su Budong and said, "I can't finish that much."
Su Budong said in surprise: "Please order what you want to eat."
Wang Yue: "..." Are you a pig? Eat so much?
Master Shao Liu stared at Su Budong interestingly and said, "Your Su reminds me of ancient famous generals. It is said that the famous generals in ancient times can eat a dou of rice and ten kilograms of beef. You can't tell that Su Xiaoyou is also a big eater."
"Eating too much will waste food for the country." Su Budong said with a wry smile.
The dishes served in the morning tea were very fast, and the dishes were served in a short while.
Wang Yue was full of words, but when Su Budong saw the food, he ignored the matter and focused on eating. Master Shao Liu was even more in a hurry, eating porridge and food.
Half an hour passed, all the food in front of Su Budong had been eaten, and Master Shao even stopped, poured himself a pot of tea, and slowly savored the tea.
Wang Yue was full of words at this time, but he didn't know what to say.
"My friend Su, are you here today for your movie?"
"Yes." Su Budong had enough, and learned from Master Shao's actions, and filled himself with a pot of tea. Then he took a sip with satisfaction.
"Master Six, this is a book..." Wang Yue was about to hand over the book to Master Shao Liu, but Master Shao Liu didn't want to read this book.
"I owe you once, so what are your requirements?" Master Shao Liu asked with a smile.
"I want to hire Master Liu Jialiang and his Liu family as the director and martial arts commander of this movie. In addition, I want to rent some studios of Shaw Brothers; the movie is still missing a large number of actors."
"Don't you think this request is too much?" Master Shao Liu didn't expect that Su Budong was really not polite to him, and he actually asked for a lot of things in one breath.
"Uncle Six, just treat it as a helping nephew."
"Don't, I've heard of your generation for a long time, so I dare not be your uncle." When Master Shao Liu heard Su Budong call him for a lifetime, he wouldn't have been eaten by some people who are planning to do the world?
"This matter is one code and one code. This is too busy. It's not that I don't want to help, but I'm powerless. Shaw Brothers has been withdrawing from the movie for two years, and Liu Jialiang is not something I can command. Whether it's okay depends on his opinion. As a businessman, doing business and doing me a favor is no problem." It's not that Master Shao Liu has never made a movie, but many popular movies are from Shaw Brothers.
"I have limited abilities, so I can't give it to Uncle Six. I wonder what Uncle Six wants me to help?" Su Budong was a little surprised. When he reached the position of Uncle Six, could he have anything to worry about?
Master Shao Liu smiled bitterly. After his explanation, Su Budong realized the general reason.
It turned out that since the mid-1980s, with the decline in TV prices and the gradual rise of TV programs, a large number of movie audiences were taken away. Shaw Brothers, which was originally popular in Hong Kong, no longer had a glory, so it reduced its production year by year until it withdrew from the film market. Many people under Shaw Brothers also left Shaw Brothers one after another.
A legend of a generation ended regretfully.
So what Mr. Shao Liu wanted to find Xiao Shuyan to do last time was what Shao's future prospects were.
But in the end, Howardines won that opportunity, but he missed it, which became a regret in his heart.
"So if you can ask Mr. Xiao to tell me a fortune, I will help you with this." Xiao Shuyan said.
Su Budong's heart was bright. He remembered why he had a relationship with Master Shao Liu, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao, I'm a thin-skinned man, I'm afraid I can't invite him, but there are some talented people. For example, I know that there is a person in the mainland who can answer his doubts. Even Master Xiao praised him for Zhou Yi. However, this person is not famous and young, so I'm afraid that Uncle Six will not believe it."
Master Shao Liu showed a difficult surprise, and was suppressed very well, saying, "Masters are among the people, let alone the people you, Su Xiaoyou, know, are shallow water objects? If you can invite them, I will help you."
Unexpectedly, Su Budong smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid the Sixth Master will be disappointed. We will return empty-handed today. My friend Shenlong is not in the end and stays in the deep mountains and forests all year round. He only occasionally walks around the west mountain of the capital. Even if I can find him, I don't know if he can agree to this trip to Xiangjiang." This is what Su Budong is negotiating the conditions and showing sincerity.
First, set up a statue of god, and then give the other party a space for imagination. The image of a peerless master immediately emerged in the mind of Master Shao Liu.
"My friend Su, if this matter can be accomplished, the conditions you just mentioned are not a problem." Master Shao Liu said anxiously. He really wanted to ask Shaw's future. This was the time when he was most confused and anxious, but he was usually covered up and no one noticed it.
Originally, Master Shao Liu was still confused and thought that Su Budong was trying to evade him. However, after hearing what Su Budong said just now, he knew that this person was not easy to ask for, and he immediately felt that maybe he could give it a try.
Su Budong nodded without changing his color: "Okay, I'll try my best. I'll look for friends in Beijing to see if there is any way to contact this person."
After saying that, he took out his elder brother and dialed Zhang Yang's phone in front of Master Shao Liu: "Hey? Is Zhang Yang?"
Zhang Yang said angrily on the other end of the phone: "Stinky Su Budong, you finally remembered me? Do you know that Lao Wang and I worked hard in the capital? It's been four months, and every day..."
"Please ask me for someone." Su Budong ignored Zhang Yang's noise and said directly to himself.
"Who? Do you guys know that Lao Wang and I work hard in the capital..."
"It's the one who told Zhou Yi last time to a leader, yes, the one wearing glasses." Su Budong deliberately said the bullhead inappropriately, in order not to make Master Shao Liu suspicious.
"Are you listening to me? Are you talking about peach, stinky brat?" Zhang Yang didn't understand what Su Budong was talking about at all.
"Okay, is he in the capital now? Can you contact him? Okay, I'll wait for your news and I'll reply in half an hour!" Su Budong deliberately increased his tone for half an hour. Even if Zhang Yang couldn't understand his hint, he had other ways.
Zhang Yang's seven orifices were filled with smoke, "Do you know that Lao Wang and I..."
"Dududududu..." Damn, this kid has learned bad things and dares to hang up his phone! No, he called him, so what's the point? Zhang Yang angrily complained to Wang Jiang.
"Is Subudon's brain awkward? I just came back from the United States and called me completely wrong. He couldn't hear anything I said."
During this period, Wang Jiang and Zhang Yang were busy with matters of all sizes and big. After hearing Zhang Yang’s complaints, they specifically asked Su Budong what he said to Zhang Yang.
Wang Jiang was very mature and stern. After listening to Zhang Yang's learning, he said with a smile: "He must be doing something wrong again. You can cooperate with him to act and call him back in half an hour."
"I don't call back, why do I call back? Long-distance phone bills are so expensive, don't he have to pay for it? And why should I cooperate with him in acting? He has no feelings for his brother at all. He went to find his little lover as soon as he was released from prison. I tell you Lao Wang, I didn't care about this matter from the beginning. Zhao Min is so good. Why doesn't this kid cherish it? Anyway, I won't beat him, and I won't beat him to death!"
Half an hour later.
Su Budong's elder brother rang out loud.
Zhang Yang whispered: "Boy, tell me the truth, are you the one with Lin Muyu?"
"Oh, the person is in touch? That's great, what did he say?"
"Give a call?"
"Okay, give me a try."
"2119210, OK, I'll write it down." Su Budong had his elder brother in his face and wrote down a string of phone numbers on the napkin with a pencil.
"When will you come back?" Zhang Yang asked.
“Doududududu…”
"Su Budong, you are a turtle!" Zhang Yang was so angry that he was about to fall down his elder brother, but he was a little reluctant to let him go, so he threw a book out!
Wang Yue admired the slightest body next to him. He was close to Su Budong, and the sound coming from Su Budong's phone was completely inconsistent with what Su Budong said.
But Su Budong had just gently reminded him with his feet under the table. This is related to their movie, so how could he talk too much to disturb the situation?
Su Budong called: "Is it Teacher Chen?"
"Who?" asked on the other end of the phone.
"It's me, Budong."
"So it's Bu Dong. What wind asked you to call me today?" asked the other end of the phone.
"I wonder if Teacher Chen has the time to come to Xiangjiang recently? I have a cousin from a distance here, and I encountered a difficult problem. I want to ask Teacher Chen in person what to do."
"This... is not very convenient." The other end of the phone was a little embarrassed. "I've been a little busy recently and have another trip."
"That's a pity. My sixth uncle has some resources in the film and television industry. I thought Teacher Chen would be willing to come and see Miss Lianxue with her." Su Budong said.
"Look at the schedule. I will probably go to Guangdong Province the day after tomorrow to meet an old friend. I should be able to go to Xiangjiang if I have time later." The other end of the phone was struggling and laughing.
"Then I'll wait for the good news. My phone number is XXXXXX. If Teacher Chen arrives in Xiangjiang, you might as well call me." Su Budong said.
"Okay, I'll write it down."
"How is it?" asked Master Shao Liu.
"He will go to Guangdong Province the day after tomorrow to meet an old friend, and then he will come to Xiangjiang." Su Budong said.
"Who is Lianxue you mentioned just now?"
"It's his fan confidant. He has been studying opera since he was a child and wants to be an actor, so I deliberately mentioned that Uncle Six is from the film and television industry, so he is a little moved." Su Budong said.
"So that's it, but I wonder what role this girl Lianxue wants to play?"
"Hey, Uncle Six, don't I have a drama? I just happened to let her play a supporting role." Su Budong said with a smile.
"What, can you let her play the heroine?" Uncle Liu glared: "In Xiangjiang, whoever I let her play the heroine can play the heroine, do you believe it?"
Su Budong smiled and hurriedly stopped him and said, "Uncle Six, human feelings are not used like this. I have seen Lianxue once, and I still love you. It is the material for being an actor, but when I come up, she will play the leading role. The starting point is too high, which is not conducive to her long-term development. So it's good to play the supporting role."
Master Shao Liu nodded: "What you are considering is not unreasonable, but such a master is with a confidante for a fan. You must always make this master proud in front of a beautiful woman."
"If you want him to have face, Master Shao Liu would not treat him strangely."
"What?"
"This master has many inconveniences in his legs and feet," said Su Budong.
"God is jealous of talent." Master Shao Liu sighed, and there was no doubt in his heart at this time. Since ancient times, seven or eight out of ten fortune-tellers have not been perfect. They only reveal the secrets of heaven because of fortune-telling. Normal people are very likely to be backfired by the way of heaven.
"I don't know the name of the master?"
"Chen Xuance."
"Good name." Master Shao Liu nodded.
