After eating, Xia and Chen Yixinbing split up.

Chen Yixin returned to the Shaw Brothers studio, and in the summer he left for the Ming Pao Building.

"Mr. Cha, this is the article I summarized, can you take a look at it and make revisions?" said Xia Xia when he sent his article to Jin Yong's eyes.

Jin Yong nodded, took it and looked at it carefully. See Xia further elaborated on his views on the future development of martial arts novels in his own article.

At the beginning, he pointed out that the current martial arts novels have entered a predicament, the themes are outdated, the author's innovation is weak, readers are bored, and the sales and influence of martial arts novels are also declining, and it has come to the time when it must be changed.

The latter part is his view on how martial arts novels should be transformed, pointing out that the subject matter needs to be innovative and down-to-earth, and the author must also change his mind and stop following the old ways, so as to rejuvenate martial arts novels and win the love of readers again.

"Well, Ah Tian, you wrote this article very well. Jin Yong smiled with satisfaction, "I didn't expect you, a young man who has just entered the industry, to see it so thoroughly, and we old people still rely on you to guide the way, it's really embarrassing." ”

"Mr. Cha, don't say that, how can I dare to mention the word 'guidance'? I'm just expressing some superficial opinions, and it would be great if I could help others. Summer waved her hand and said modestly.

"Okay, this article will appear in the newspaper tomorrow, and I'll help you write another editor's note. Jin Yong smiled and said, "In addition, in the past two days, I will organize some martial arts novelists to hold a symposium, and you can also participate in it when the time comes." ”

"Mr. Cha, how embarrassing is this. "Summer was pleasantly surprised.

Jin Yongke is known as one of the four great talents of Hong Kong, his pen is better than thousands of troops, and he has a high credibility in Hong Kong. If he writes an editor's note for himself, it will be difficult for him to become famous.

"It's okay, you deserve it. Jin Yong said with a smile, Xia shared all the ideas that might bring him tens of millions of wealth, and of course he should compensate him in terms of "fame".

"Then thank you, Mr. Cha. Summer smiled happily.

……

After returning from the Ming Pao Building, he plunged into the house in the summer, first got out the scripts of the two movies "Police Story" and "Lucky Stars", and then completed the opening chapter of "Qin Shi Mingyue".

Although he hasn't watched the novel version and animated version of "Qin Shi Mingyue" in the summer, he has participated in the filming of the TV series version, and he can be said to be familiar with the script. Now restoring the script into a novel is just a piece of cake for him. Therefore, he wrote very fast, and in less than three hours, he had already written more than 10,000 words.

"I'm going to write about this today, and it's time to rest. Summer sorted out the manuscript and said to herself.

Because the economic predicament has been initially resolved, now the summer is no longer like before, always have to stay up all night to work hard. He also knows that the body is the capital of the revolution, and if he doesn't take good care of it now, he will regret it one day in the future.

Nothing was said all night.

I got up early the next day, and went to Golden Harvest again in the summer to deliver the script.

"Ah Tian, you are really capable, you wrote the script so quickly, I really didn't see the wrong person. After Hong Jingbao got the script of "Lucky Stars", he smiled with satisfaction.

"Thank you, Brother Hong, for the compliment. Summer smiled, and then said, "You first see if this script is suitable and if there is anything that needs to be revised." ”

Hong Jingbao nodded, looked at it seriously, and giggled from time to time at the summer idea.

Especially to see that Wufuxing pretended to be a burglary and robbery gangster in order to take advantage of the overlord flower, everyone took turns to tie up with the overlord flower, eating tofu, and it was hard to think of how to come up with it in the summer, it was really fun.

"Ah Tian, you really have a set. Okay, yes, I've taken this script. Hong Jingbao nodded and said, "By the way, in a few days, I will lead the team to Japan for filming, do you want to go with you?" Usually it is nothing more than to help add and change some plots and modify the lines, it won't bother you too much, and the rest of the time you can play casually in Japan, and the money will be paid by the crew." ”

Summer smiled, knowing that it was common for screenwriters to follow the crew. Because there are often unexpected situations during filming, it is impossible to be exactly like what is written in the script. At this time, in order to be able to continue filming, it is necessary to modify the script temporarily, and then the screenwriter must be present.

And in fact, this is also a benefit, after all, it is such a fun place to go to Japan, you can take the opportunity to enjoy the oriental style, and have a good time on Toei Island. If it was someone else, I would have been eager to follow.

But he really can't get out in the summer, because now he has a lot of work in his hands, and he has to write "Qin Shi Mingyue" to contribute to Jin Yong, and he has to make money for Luo Yabing's filming, and he is so busy with work, he doesn't have time to go to Japan to live happily.

"No need, Brother Hong, I still have a lot of things to do in Hong Kong, and I really can't take a break. Xia shook his head and said, "You should take Mr. Huang Bingyao and Mr. Situ Zhuohan with you." ”

"What's so busy. Hong Jingbao smiled, "Ah Tian, this is a good opportunity." I'm going to Japan with a team this time, and I might have to stay for two months. In two months, you can run a lap in the whole of Japan. If you want to find such an opportunity in the future, it will be difficult for a long time. ”

I was able to follow him to Japan this time, but it was a very good benefit, and I don't know how many people actively signed up. Because everyone knows that although I went to Japan to film this time, I can usually have fun freely, and the company is responsible for food and accommodation, so I don't have to spend a penny. There are not many opportunities for this kind of "public-funded tourism".

The last time he led the team out was when he filmed "Food Truck" in '83. The brothers have lived in Spain for almost half a year, eating, drinking and having fun all day long, and they can also bubble foreign girls by the way, so that everyone is happy.

Xia smiled and said what he was going to do, "Brother Hong, look, I really didn't lie to you, I really don't have time." ”

"That's a pity, the Japanese girl is very gentle. Seeing him so frank, Hong Jingbao nodded with a smile, "By the way, that bucktooth Bing seems to be making a C-grade movie, how could you get involved with him?" he frowned again.

He heard that Luo Yabing has about 20 brothers under him, and he has opened a film company to make some C-grade films that are not in the stream, and he is also known as the "king of underground C-grade films". Hong Jingbao has never paid attention to a character like him, and he can't figure out why he cooperates with this kind of person in the summer.

"It's not all my dad who got in trouble!" Summer smiled wryly and recounted what had happened.

After hearing this, Hong Jingbao couldn't help but be angry for Summer, being a father like this in his son's stall was really going to be killed. "Ah Tian, do you want me to help you come forward to level the buckteeth, there is nothing to be afraid of like that kind of person. He patted his chest and said.

Although Luo Yabing is the boss of the 24K hair, Hong Jingbao is not afraid of him at all. There are only about twenty brothers in Luo Yabing, and there are forty or fifty dragon and tiger martial artists under Hong Jingbao, all of whom can cut and kill with kung fu, and it is a piece of cake to beat them. Otherwise, invite a few black X club bosses to come forward, and ensure that they are so scared that they don't even dare to fart.

"No need, Brother Hong, I am cooperating with him now, although the process is not pleasant, but there is not much conflict. Xia waved his hand and said, "If there is really a tense time between us one day, then I will ask Brother Hong to make a move." ”

"Oh well. However, your cooperation with someone like Bucktooth Bing is tantamount to seeking skin with a tiger, and I suggest you draw a line with him as soon as possible. If you really want to film, then you might as well come with me, I'll let you start as an assistant director. If you learn quickly, I'll make you a director in two years. Hong Jingbao said sincerely.

Xia smiled, it's not bad to be able to study with Hong Jingbao, but it will take two years before he can become a full-time director, and I don't know when he will be able to break into the hall and develop his own career. Rather than that, it would be better to find another way.

"I remember, Brother Hong, thank you for your kindness. He nodded and said, "If I am desperate one day, I hope that Brother Hong will still be willing to take me in." ”

……

After talking to Hong Jingbao in the summer, he took a check for 150,000 yuan signed by him.

In fact, according to common sense, the screenwriter's manuscript fee is not in place in one step. Generally, a part is paid before the start of filming, a part is paid before the completion of the filming, and the remaining part will not be given until the release is completed. There is even an example of a drama that even has a videotape, and the screenwriter has not received a penny.

However, Hong Jingbao cherishes that Xia Xia is a talent and hopes to have a good relationship with him, so he decided to pay the manuscript fee in one lump sum. In this way, I will not lose money, and it will also make Summer feel reliable enough to lay a good foundation for the next cooperation.

With that check in his pocket, I felt warm in the summer. The so-called food in his hands, not panicked, he has been in Hong Kong for so many days, and he got so much money today, he really felt down-to-earth for the first time.

"After paying off the loan shark, I will work hard to earn a million, and then I will start making my own movie. Summer said to herself in her heart.
