Chapter 525 Four talented people jointly contribute manuscripts
As the saying goes, money moves people's hearts, Cao Weidong offered a bargaining chip that everyone present could not refuse.
The screenwriters returned home one by one, gearing up and preparing for a big fight.
Isn’t it just writing a script?
We are the best.
You must take this incredible wealth!
Of course, in order to catch up with the filming schedule, Cao Weidong also limited the time for these screenwriters to submit their manuscripts.
Three months!
Whoever can come up with a movie script that satisfies him within three months can get a generous reward.
Even Ni Kuang is a little jealous.
He is short of money.
It's the kind of person who is very, very, very short of money.
It stands to reason that as one of the four most talented people in Hong Kong, Ni Kuang is a famous novelist, editorial writer, screenwriter, and a feared eight-clawed devil, with daily updates of RMB 30,000 to RMB 40,000, so he should not be short of money.
But I have two fatal hobbies: neon baskets.
A delicious meal.
Delicacies from mountains and seas, fine wines and delicacies, he can’t live without them.
Er is so beautiful.
He likes Loli ladies, young ladies, and pretty girls, as long as they are somewhat pretty.
His good friend Cai Lam once commented that Ni Kuang is "liquor, sex and wealth", which is quite apt.
It happened that during this period, Ni Kuang fell in love with a female nightclub manager who still had charm.
In order to pursue the female manager, Ni Kuang spent a lot of money in the nightclub just to win the beauty's smile.
This has also caused him to be a little tight recently.
In addition, Wang Yu made a big fuss with Shaw Brothers and ran away from Jiahe. The great director Zhang Che was implicated and was hidden by Mr. Shaw.
As Zhang Che's royal screenwriter, Ni Kuang did not write any scripts during this period.
That's why he went to Jiahe's screenwriters' gathering behind his company's back, and that's how he got the next commission.
"As long as you can write a manuscript that satisfies Cao Weidong, you can get generous rewards..."
"Moreover, the Hong Kong martial arts universe is connected, and countless Hong Kong martial arts heroes fight against evil villains in the same world view. Just thinking about it makes me feel excited."
On the way home, Ni Kuang became more and more excited as she thought about it.
On the one hand, it is for remuneration.
On the other hand, the manuscript tasks assigned by Cao Weidong were quite to his liking.
Mr. Jin Yong once commented that Ni Kuang is the most imaginative writer in Hong Kong City in this era. He not only writes science fiction, but also detectives, gods and monsters, romance, martial arts, scripts, etc.
"Cao Weidong gave too much..."
"But it is too difficult to get this remuneration. There are ten movie scripts, and each script meets Cao Weidong's requirements. I am afraid it will be difficult for me to do it..."
"I still need help..."
As he thought about it, Ni Kuang's eyes suddenly lit up and he had an idea.
"I'm not alone..."
Thinking that he could do it, he simply didn't go home. He found a restaurant on the roadside, drank a glass of wine, and then ordered a few side dishes, and planned to invite his own foreign aid... p>
"Jin Yong, Huang Zhan, Cai Lan... now that I have something to do, none of you can escape, hehe."
.......
Time flies by.
In the blink of an eye, Hong Kong City has entered winter.
Since the port city is in a typical maritime subtropical monsoon climate, the annual average temperature is 23.3℃. In winter, the temperature may drop below 10℃, so the winter here seems a bit dry and cold.
This made Cao Weidong, who was used to seeing white clothes, feel slightly uncomfortable.
Thinking that he would have to stay here for another nine years before returning to China, Cao Weidong felt a sense of sadness in his heart.
Maybe this is nostalgia...
Looking at the dry branches outside the window, Cao Weidong's thoughts turned away.
The storm sweeping across the mainland has probably already begun.
I don’t know how my relatives and friends are doing now.
He has left so many backup forces, and Tongquan City is far away from the political center, so he should be able to provide shelter to his relatives and friends in the storm.
While he was thinking, the secretary knocked on the door and came in.
The little girl was wearing tight-fitting professional clothes, showing a deep V, with a professional smile on her face, and said with a smile:
"Boss, there is someone looking for you outside. He is waiting for you in the waiting room."
"He said he was a Ni basket."
The little secretary only has eyes for Cao Weidong.
Now Cao Weidong is unpredictable.
He is a popular writer in Hong Kong, and his reputation almost surpasses that of Mr. Jin Yong.
He is one of the bosses of Jiahe, and he established twelve satellite companies in one go, which is a well-known story in Hong Kong.
If I can get Mr. Cao's favor, I will really fly up the branches and become a phoenix.
Moreover, the atmosphere of Hong Kong City is open, and the secretary is also open-minded about these things.
It’s the same even if the lights are turned off.
And Mr. Cao is so handsome and charming, it seems...
It’s okay not to turn off the lights......
Cao Weidong smiled, knowing his secretary's little thoughts very well.
Shaking his head, Cao Weidong walked straight out of the office.
Just kidding, he still has three goblins waiting for him at home, and with his busy work schedule, he has no intention of messing around with women anymore.
.......
When he arrived at the waiting room, Cao Weidong was surprised to find that there was not one person waiting for him, but four people.
Looking at these familiar faces in front of him, even though Cao Weidong was used to seeing big winds and waves, he was a little stunned at this time.
"Mr. Jin, why are you here too?"
Jin Yong greeted Cao Weidong very familiarly, then pointed at the basket and said with a slight complaint.
"It's not because of this guy. He wants to get paid for the movie script, but he is worried that he can't write well, so he has to bring us together."
Jin Yong had a good impression of Cao Weidong and once wrote the preface to "Zhu Xian".
"By the way, you may not know these guys, let me introduce them to you..."
However, Cao Weidong said.
"Mr. Jin, you don't need to introduce me. If I guess correctly, these people should be Mr. Huang Zhan and Mr. Cai Lan. It's really an honor for me to have the four most talented people in Hong Kong gathered together."
Needless to say, the achievements of Jin Yong and Ni Kuang.
Huang Zhan is a genius in Hong Kong. He is also a recognized master of lyrics. He is known as the "Father of Modern Pop Songs". He has written more than a thousand works in his life, published more than 30 books, and soundtracked more than 50 movies.
Department.
Among Huang Zhan's works, the most well-known in the mainland are "My Chinese Heart", "A Smile in the Sea" and "Under the Lion Rock".
Chua Lam, an optimistic genius and the originator of the skewed youth, is also a famous writer, gourmet, film producer and host in Singapore.
In addition to his open-minded attitude towards life and beautiful writing, he is also an outstanding film producer. The films he has produced include: "Fast Truck", "Brothers and Brothers", "Lucky Star", "City Hunter", "Human Torch"
", "A Good Man", "Crime" and other popular movies.
In the late 1980s, Hong Kong's three most talented people Huang Zhan, Cai Lam, and Ni Kang co-hosted the TV program "Undefended Tonight", which set a viewing record for Hong Kong's TV programs at the same time.
Now that the four great talents in Hong Kong are gathered together, can they bring surprises to themselves?
Cao Weidong is looking forward to it.
Ni Kuang was not polite and handed over six thick movie scripts.
"Six books?"
Cao Weidong asked in astonishment.
Ni Kuang nodded and said with some regret.
"If we were given enough time, we could come up with ten sets of scripts, but it's a pity that the time is too short."
"In order to write these scripts, I completely broke the habit of never revising the draft. I changed the draft three times before it was completed."
Hearing what Ni Kuang said so solemnly, Cao Weidong also became serious and picked up the movie script to read it.
