Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

"There are so many actresses in Hong Kong, why does Mr. Lin want to find me alone?"

Leaning on the chair and supporting her chin with her hand, Zhang Sijia looked at Lin Daoqiu with her eyes blinking.

Being able to have the other party invite her to act in person is a great affirmation for Sylvia Chang.

Although she was also very happy, she was not in a hurry to agree. She wanted to know why Lin Daoqiu did not find anyone else, but chose her instead.

"It's very simple, because after careful consideration, I feel that this role is very suitable for Miss Zhang."

There are a lot of beauties in Xiangjiang, and there are many who are prettier than Sylvia Chang, but only a handful of them are prettier than her and have better acting skills than her.

Lin Daoqiu also accidentally thought of letting Sylvia Chang play the role of secretary.

"Mr. Lin's words sound a bit perfunctory. Compared with what the directors who asked me to act in the past said, they are a bit different."

Zhang Sylvia was also naughty because she could feel that Lin Daoqiu should be telling the truth, but she just wanted to tease him.

"I'm sorry, I'm not very good at speaking in front of women, and in front of a beauty like Miss Zhang. Please forgive me if I made any mistakes, Miss Zhang."

Lin Daoqiu has an honest look and seems to be an honest person. In addition, he is only 21 years old, so it is easy for Zhang Sylvia to believe that what he is saying is true.

Zhang Sijia did not expect that the owner of Tangtang Xiangjiang Cinemas would be a man who would be nervous when meeting women, which made her cover her mouth and laugh.

"Hahaha... Mr. Lin is so interesting. It's a pity that I didn't get to know you earlier. It would be great if I could get to know you earlier."

Sylvia Chang's words may sound normal, but in fact, only she understands the meaning of her words.

There was nothing to do anyway, so Lin Daoqiu simply pretended to the end. He pretended to look at Zhang Sijia in confusion, as if he didn't understand why the other party was smiling like this.

"Ms. Zhang, did I say something wrong just now?"

The nervous look on Lin Daoqiu's face made Zhang Sijia even more happy, and her whole body was already trembling with laughter.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lin, I just suddenly thought of something very funny. Don't be offended."

Force yourself to calm down. If you continue to laugh, the guests around you may think you are crazy.

But even so, it can still be seen on Zhang Sylvia's face that she is holding back her smile and not letting herself laugh.

"Let's talk about that play you mentioned."

Zhang Sijia didn't want to continue laughing like this, so she quickly changed the topic to another side.

"The name of this drama is "Police Story", the starring role is Jackie Chan, and Ms. Zhang will play the role of a female secretary..."

Lin Daoqiu briefly explained the plot of "Police Story" to Sylvia Chang.

When talking about business, Sylvia Chang suddenly became serious again, making people confused as to which one is the real her.

After Lin Daoqiu finished telling the plot of "Police Story", Sylvia Chang immediately realized that the other party wanted her to play a supporting role, and it was also an easy supporting role.

However, the highlight of this film is the character of Jackie Chan, and from the name of the film, you can tell that this is a story about the police in Hong Kong, so the female characters in it naturally do not have a strong sense of presence.

"Hey... I thought Mr. Lin came to see me specially because he wanted me to play the heroine."

After Zhang Sijia finished speaking, she sighed in front of Lin Daoqiu.

"Actually, the role of the female secretary is also very useful. I think Miss Zhang can definitely play this role well. After all, there are not many actresses in Hong Kong who are better than Miss Zhang."

"Does Mr. Lin really think so?"

As soon as Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, Zhang Sylvia immediately raised her head and looked at him with a very serious expression on her face.

"Of course. Those who are more beautiful than you are not as good at acting as you are, and those who are better at acting than you are not as beautiful as you. This is what I really think."

After hearing Lin Daoqiu's words, Zhang Sijia was very happy. After all, being praised by Lin Daoqiu was indeed a comfortable thing.

"Mr. Lin is too generous. I'm not as good as you said. But Mr. Lin made a special trip to see me today, so of course I have to give Mr. Lin some face."

Being able to sell Lin Daoqiu some face, Zhang Sijia felt that this deal was quite a bargain.

Moreover, this supporting role looked like a role of a vase, and the difficulty for her was almost zero, so Zhang Sijia agreed without much thought.

"Thank you very much, Miss Zhang."

After hearing Zhang Sylvia's immediate agreement, Lin Daoqiu stood up and reached out to the other party.

"Mr. Lin is too polite. Speaking of which, I have joined Xinyi City and you are also my boss. Since the boss asks me for help, how can I refuse?"

What Sylvia Chang probably doesn't know is that this "Police Story" is not as simple as she thought.

It's just that Lin Daoqiu doesn't plan to let her know yet, and she will have to experience all this by herself.

…………

Produced by Lin Daoqiu, director Yuan Heping, starring Jackie Chan, Michelle Chang, Sylvia Chang, screenwriters Lin Daoqiu and Deng Jingsheng.

After everything was settled, Lin Daoqiu went to see Lu Dingtang in person with the good news.

Looking through the script and cast and crew list given by Lin Daoqiu, although Lu Dingtang didn't know much about the film industry, he had heard of Jackie Chan's name.

In addition, Lin Daoqiu personally serves as the producer and screenwriter, which shows that the other party is not lazy, but really intends to make this film well.

"Mr. Lin, this "Police Story" is very well written and I am very satisfied."

After Lu Dingtang closed the script, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

As for whether he is really so optimistic about this drama, only Lu Dingtang himself knows.

In Lu Dingtang's opinion, as long as Lin Daoqiu doesn't do it perfunctorily, he believes that with Lin Daoqiu's ability, he can definitely make a movie that will be praised and praised.

"Since Mr. Lu is satisfied, it is naturally the best."

"I wonder when this drama will be finished filming?"

Lin Daoqiu estimates that the film will take about eight months to complete and will be released at the end of the year or early next year.

Lu Dingtang will leave Hong Kong soon, and he hopes he can watch the drama "Police Story" with his own eyes before leaving.

"If the filming of this drama is to be completed, I estimate that it will be at the end of the year or early next year at the earliest."

Lin Daoqiu didn't dare to vouch for it, after all, the starring role in this drama is Jackie Chan.

With his attitude towards excellence in movies, I'm afraid the filming speed won't be too fast.

Moreover, Lin Daoqiu has to pray that no major accidents will happen in this drama, otherwise time will continue to be delayed.

"Mr. Lin doesn't need to speed up the production of this drama for me. Even if he can't make it in time, I will fly back to Xiangjiang from my hometown to watch it."

Lu Dingtang didn't want Lin Daoqiu to hurry up and film the film before he left Hong Kong.

"Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I have my own opinions. You will definitely be satisfied with this drama when it comes out."

Lu Dingtang could clearly feel the strong self-confidence in Lin Daoqiu, which made him look forward to this "Police Story" a little more.
