Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 118 The sense of smell of a master director!

Peter Lam was a little depressed. He was already busy enough, and then Liu Wei called him and scolded him.

Who did I offend? Really!

He was actually concerned about Zhou Hao's recruitment, but not too concerned.

Both Zhou Hao himself and the Miaobi platform have reached a long-term cooperation intention. He is confident that he has a good eye for people. Zhou Hao does not seem like the kind of person who will just follow whoever feeds him.

So even though Lin Xina had called him several times to remind him, and even though the video of her visiting the set had gone viral online, he didn't take it seriously.

It was not until Liu Wei's scolding that he was forced to change his schedule temporarily and bring people to meet Zhou Hao first.

After a long journey, I arrived at the hotel where the crew was staying, and was surprised to find that the hotel was surrounded by reporters and self-media people, all of them holding cameras, as if they were holding a general meeting.

The scene took him by surprise.

what's the situation?
Is this guy's level of attention really so outrageous?
I squeezed into the hotel lobby and saw Lin Xina sitting inside waiting.

“Uncle, you’re finally here.” Seeing Lin Jianyue appear, Lin Xina quickly trotted over, “If you don’t come again, you really don’t have to come.”

"I'm here now." Peter Lam smiled, "Where's Zhou Haoren? Let's call him down to have dinner together."

"No time." Lin Xina whispered, "Director Gu Ming came over an hour ago and asked to see him by name, and they are chatting now."

When he heard the name, Peter Lam was stunned for a moment, "Who were you talking about?"

"Gu Ming, the director who won the Grand Slam at domestic film festivals!" Lin Xina whispered, "He's Director Liu's teacher!"

Peter Lam opened his mouth wide and was stunned.

Gu Ming, this name has begun to fade out of everyone's sight in recent years.

But if we go back ten or twenty years, he was definitely one of the most outstanding directors in the Chinese film industry, and he won almost all the prestigious formal awards in the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong.

Grand Slam director, absolutely deserving of the title without any exaggeration.

In other words, he is unwilling to abandon his bottom line to shoot those painful themes that white people like, otherwise his award-winning resume would definitely not be limited to domestically.

But even so, he is definitely considered a leading figure in the current Chinese entertainment director circle!
After finishing his last work at the age of 68, he entered a long period of seclusion and people in the circle have not heard from him for a long time.

Apart from showing up in some main-theme New Year films, he has basically not been active in any major events.

But now, he actually took the initiative to come to Chuncheng to see Zhou Hao?

This amount of information is incredible!
"Are you sure he came to see Zhou Hao?" Peter Lam also asked in a low voice, "Didn't he come to see Liu Wei and meet Zhou Hao by the way?"

Lin Xina shook her head. "When he came over, he didn't talk much to Director Liu. He just asked to see Screenwriter Zhou. Director Liu wanted to talk to him and got scolded."

Hearing this, Peter Lam's expression finally changed.

It’s bad. This is really bad.

No matter how much Zhou Hao displays his talent, he is still just a "talented man". But if he is given the title of "favored by Gu Ming", it would be really amazing.

You have to know that today, Gu Ming's identity is definitely not just a director. The peer resources, official connections, and industry prestige behind him are definitely coveted by all capital in the industry!
If we can get in touch with Zhou Hao and Gu Ming... those investors will definitely go crazy!

Once this news spreads, Zhou Hao's net worth will probably increase explosively!

At first he was somewhat blaming Liu Wei for being too hasty, but now he only felt annoyed and regretful.

We should have locked this person up earlier! After patting his head, Peter Lam immediately calmed down and started to replan, "How many people know about this now?"

Lin Xina knew what the uncle was asking, and shook her head and said, "It can't be concealed anymore. Who do you think those reporters outside are targeting?"

Peter Lam opened his mouth, but finally sighed dejectedly.

I shouldn’t regret it!

…………

In the room, Zhou Hao looked at the old man in front of him with a confused look on his face.

He was wearing a large military coat and a felt hat, which looked extremely simple, even a bit rustic.

Judging from the outfit, she doesn't look like she has any artistic talent.

It is really hard to imagine that a superstar who once dominated the film industry would dress like this...

However, this old man is in good spirits. He is said to be over 70 years old, but he speaks with full energy, his eyes are bright, and he has a good way of keeping in good health.

"Young man, how is it?" Gu Ming looked at Zhou Hao expectantly, "Sell me the tuner's notebook. You can name any price you want."

Liu Wei, who came with him, was shaking his head and winking frantically behind him.

I didn’t know whether it meant not to ask for a high price or simply not to agree to it. I was a little unsure for a moment.

Zhou Hao could only scratch his head and ask tentatively: "Mr. Gu, don't you no longer make movies?"

"Who said that?" Gu Ming rolled his eyes and said, "I just felt too tired before, so I wanted to take a few years off. I never said I wanted to retire!"

"It's just that I haven't found a suitable book in these years, so I've been on break for a little while. Isn't it because I saw your book and was excited that I came here eagerly?"

Zhou Hao nodded and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: He is indeed a great director, his sense of smell is really sensitive.

Although the original story of "The Tuner" is short, the core scalability is very strong.

After Sammo Hung remade the film into a coming-of-age film, it grossed over 60 million U.S. dollars worldwide and over 300 million in China, with very good word of mouth, making it a critically and commercially successful classic.

Moreover, this is not just a popcorn movie, it is a movie that is worth watching over and over again. There are innumerable details hidden in it, and every detail will affect the audience's understanding of the film.

Therefore, this film naturally became the favorite of various film and television slice UP hosts, and various "Over-Interpretation" emerged one after another.

The old man was able to sense the potential for adaptation based on just a simple initial version. It's really amazing.

"What do you think? Just give me a straight answer whether you will sell it or not?" Seeing that Zhou Hao didn't say anything, Gu Ming asked hurriedly.

Zhou Hao laughed secretly in his heart. This impatient temper is exactly the same as Liu Wei's...

He first glanced at Liu Wei, and after confirming that he had no objection, he nodded, "No problem."

Snapped.

"So cool!" Gu Ming slapped his thigh, his face flushed with excitement.

"Young people should be like you. What a shame to be so procrastinating all day! Just name your price!"
