Facing Shao Daheng's question, Shi Zhijian calmly held up the red wine glass and took a sip, then put the wine glass down again, raised his head and said to Shao Daheng: "Uncle Six, I know you are joking, but this joke
It really scared me! I was so scared that I had to drink some wine to calm down."
These words are watertight!
In particular, Shi Zhijian's words of calling him "Sixth Uncle" naturally brought him closer to Shao Daheng, and he regarded himself as a descendant.
Then he said that Shao Daheng was telling a joke and directly left a step for each other.
The last sentence said that he was frightened and had to drink to calm down the shock, which vividly demonstrated the behavior a junior should behave after being frightened.
At this moment, even if Shao Daheng really wants to eat up Shi Zhijian's share of the box office, he still has to take his own huge face into consideration.
Shao Daheng's expression remained unchanged.
Mr. Qiu next to him took a serious look at Shi Zhijian for the first time, with a hint of approval in his eyes.
For Zhou Duwen, Shi Zhijian's answer was very shameless. The title "Sixth Uncle" is usually only reserved for acquaintances of Shao Daheng. Who do you think you are?!
Zou Wenhuai looked at his nose and his heart. For him, he had to try his best to be neutral tonight.
"Where is Mr. Shi's ancestral home?" Shao Daheng asked.
Shi Zhijian smiled slightly: "My ancestral home is Ningbo, and I heard that your ancestral home is also Ningbo, Uncle Liu, so we are all 'you Baoren'!"
Shi Zhijian's awkward Ningbo dialect made Zhou Duwen almost laugh, but when he looked back at Shao Daheng, he immediately held it back.
Shao Daheng smiled and said, "Really? But how come I heard that you and Inspector Hua Lei Luo are both 'family members'?"
"Jiajilang" means "one's own" in Chaozhou dialect.
Being exposed as a peep show, Shi Zhijian remained calm and composed, "My grandfather was Ningbo, and my father was born in Chaozhou!"
Zhou Duwen's mouth twitched, is this okay?
"Mr. Shi is really smart. I was indeed joking with you just now." Shao Daheng brought the topic back.
"Since we, Shaw Brothers, have signed an agreement with you, we will definitely implement it in accordance with the agreement. Please rest assured!"
"Thank you Uncle Six, but your joke just now really scared me."
"Young people should be more courageous." Shao Daheng seemed to be encouraging the younger generation, "But I am curious about one thing. Are you interested in movies?"
Shi Zhijian nodded, "There are probably not many people in Hong Kong who are not interested in movies, especially Shaw Brothers movies!"
Shi Zhijian's words were a secret compliment to Shaw Brothers.
Shao Daheng is very useful.
"So what do you think of today's film industry?"
This question is relatively general.
It can be deep or shallow.
You can answer in one sentence, or you can talk in a long and eloquent way.
Next to him, Zou Wenhuai pushed up his glasses and began to think about this issue.
Zhou Duwen also started to use his brain. If he was asked the question, how should he answer it?
Only Mr. Qiu looked at Shi Zhijian with interest.
Shi Zhijian has been waiting for someone to ask this question. You must know that in his previous life, he was also a fan of Hong Kong movies and he knew everything about Hong Kong movies.
"Uncle Liu, Hong Kong movies will have a golden thirty years in the future! But after thirty years, Hong Kong movies will stagnate and eventually perish!"
Shi Zhijian thundered and exploded the scene.
Shao Daheng's expression changed, not to mention everyone else, who also looked at Shi Zhijian in surprise.
Because Shi Zhijian’s “prediction” is too bold!
Hong Kong movies will have thirty golden years!
It will be destroyed in thirty years!
Zou Wenhuai thought that Shi Zhijian was too courageous and would dare to say anything.
Zhou Duwen thinks that Shi Zhijian is talking nonsense. Just now, a dead old man appeared in a dream, and now he is pretending to be a ghost again. He also predicted that Hong Kong will be thirty years old. This is crazy!
Shao Daheng's reaction was that Shi Zhijian spoke with a firm tone and a natural expression, especially his bright eyes. He didn't seem to be talking nonsense. Based on his previous impression of Shi Zhijian, he was a calm and sophisticated young man who shouldn't be talking nonsense.
That's right.
As for Mr. Qiu next to him, he picked up the red wine glass and took a sip of wine for the first time, but his eyes were fixed on Shi Zhijian from beginning to end and did not fall on the wine glass.
"Hong Kong movies are in a period of rising box office. Now it is an unimaginable event to have a box office of one million. In the future, the box office will exceed two million, three million, four million, five million, or even ten million.
possible!"
"The hidden energy of Hong Kong movies has not yet been fully released, and movie types have yet to be discovered. In the future, countless big stars will become popular throughout Southeast Asia and even Hollywood!"
"In order to cultivate big stars, the best way is to set up artist training classes on TV stations, so that they can gain experience by performing small roles on the small screen. When their acting skills mature, they can lose the TV flavor and focus on the film market!"
Shi Zhijian looked straight at Shao Daheng, his tone was affirmative, but he said these words directly to Shao Daheng.
Shao Daheng's expression remained unchanged and he did not speak his mind.
Zhou Duwen couldn't help but laugh and said: "Open an artist training class? Of course you need to make money to open a company. Who has the time to train a large number of young people? Besides, what if these young people have wings and fly?"
Is it a waste to help others make wedding clothes?"
Zhou Duwen was actually using this sentence to mock Zou Wenhuai. It was Zou Wenhuai who inadvertently signed a buyout agreement with Shi Zhijian, which caused Shaw Brothers to lose sight of it and abandon the play "The One-Armed Sword".
"Mr. Zhou, since you want to make a movie, you have to look further! An actor cannot stay in one company for his whole life, as that would be detrimental to both parties. Only living water can raise fish, just like Hong Kong cannot be dominated by one film company!"
"In the past, Shaw Brothers could compete with MP&M, but with the closure of MP&M, Shaw Brothers is now in full swing, but the quality of movies and the types of films developed are much less than before. Why is this? It's just a lack of competitiveness! The same goes for actors.
!This is the famous ‘catfish effect’!”
"Uh, what effect?" Zhou Duwen was stunned for a moment.
Others also looked at Shi Zhijian with curious faces.
Shi Zhijian was stunned. These people don't even know what the "catfish effect" is, right?
Helpless, Shi Zhijian had to patiently popularize the term "catfish effect" again.
After listening to Shi Zhijian's explanation, the air around him solidified.
Shao Daheng looked calm on the surface, but in fact he was stunned by Shi Zhijian's imagination that broke through the sky and the Milky Way.
In particular, Shi Zhijian proposed the establishment of an "artist training class" in the TV station, which was a huge secret hidden deep in Shao Daheng's heart.
He never told this secret to anyone, not even those closest to him.
But I heard it from Shi Zhijian's mouth.
This shock is extremely powerful.
So that Shao Daheng had to look at Shi Zhijian again, his eyes instantly softened, and three words came out of his heart: "You understand me!"
