Wong Kar-wai said he wrote it.

Then he told Xing Baohua the general outline of the story.

The story is about a couple who have reached the point of discussing marriage.

During an outing, the female protagonist was involved in a car accident, which resulted in a head injury and amnesia.

In other words, after waking up, the female protagonist doesn't remember that the male protagonist is her boyfriend.

During her amnesia, the female lead encounters another supporting character and gradually falls in love with him.

She ignored the male protagonist's love.

Upon hearing this, Xing Baohua mentally exclaimed "Holy crap!" several times.

A love triangle is what's truly melodramatic.

It's easy to get criticized and cause controversy.

That's not all; the amnesiac female lead is now with a supporting character, and she's pregnant.

The male protagonist has been pursuing the female protagonist, hoping she will come back, and he has been working hard to help her remember their past.

As the female lead's belly grew larger, another unexpected event occurred.

The female lead slipped and fell down the stairs, landing on the back of her head.

As a result, his memory was restored.

She felt incredibly guilty in front of both the male lead and the supporting characters.

Xing Baohua felt that even the Koreans couldn't produce such a melodramatic plot.

How should the female lead choose?

I had no choice but to walk into the icy sea.

The story ends.

Xing Baohua was dumbfounded after hearing the whole story.

No wonder Xing Baohua hadn't heard of Wong Kar-wai's film; apparently, no one dared to invest in it!

If this movie were to incorporate Wong Kar-wai's style, holy crap, it would be so dark! Even novels wouldn't dare to write it like this!

Based on those film awards, especially those for art-house dramas with darker storylines, they will basically win awards.

Should we invest in this film or not?

"Leave the script here, let me think about it first?" Xing Baohua had no choice but to say.

Wong Kar-wai left the script behind, politely said goodbye to Xing Baohua, and then left.

Xing Baohua glanced at the script and wondered if it would affect Zou Wenjuan's reputation.

Dramas that focus on human relationships and ethics are more likely to be successful.

Of course, this will also test the actors' acting skills. Xing Baohua was well aware of Wong Kar-wai's plans, and he chose Zou Wenjuan because of her current popularity.

Furthermore, with the financial backing she has, only in this way can the entire film be completed.

There's also the support of Zou Wenjuan's popularity. No matter how bad the film is, at least Zou Wenjuan's fans will support it.

This is a very clever scheme.

Xing Baohua decided to go back that night and discuss it with Zou Wenjuan, telling her about the risks of this film.

If she insists on participating in this production, it could tarnish her career.

Honestly, Xing Baohua really didn't want her involved. Xing Baohua had a lot of cash flow, but it wasn't really about money.

This film will cost at most a few million Hong Kong dollars. Neither Xing Baohua nor Zou Wenjuan can afford that amount.

But the plot is truly outrageous! Xing Baohua really wouldn't dare let Zou Wenjuan take such a risk.

Back home, Xing Baohua shared her concerns with Zou Wenjuan. She also showed her the script, and said that if Zou insisted on acting, Xing Baohua would support her in principle.

After all, her chances of winning an award are still very high. The Best Actress award plus the ring will be a great help to Zou Wenjuan.

After reading the script, Zou Wenjuan threw it away and said, "It's really disgusting. Forget it, I'm not filming it."

Xing Baohua picked up the phone and told Wang Weibao that the Wong Kar-wai movie was off the table, but they could work together again sometime.

Xing Baohua comforted Zou Wenjuan, saying, "If you have the chance, go to Hollywood and give it a try. Maybe you can make a blockbuster."

Zou Wenjuan just smiled.

Actually, I don't really care.

Before the New Year's Day holiday, Tsui Hark called Xing Baohua to say that the filming was complete and asked him to come over and check the results. As for the post-production work, Xing Baohua's team would have to come over to help refine it.

Xing Baohua was visiting New Art City for the first time when she was surprised to be greeted by Sister Li.

Then I saw Huang the Eyes, the Bald Old Man, and Master Shi at the main gate.

The fact that the three big bosses greeted Xing Baohua together showed them great respect.

The group chatted casually in the office for a while before heading to Tsui Hark's post-production studio.

The final cut was shot according to the story provided by Xing Baohua, and many reels of film were used for the thirty seconds.

Tsui Hark cut many clips from the final film and let Xing Baohua choose the ones she was satisfied with.

The selected images will undergo post-processing according to Xing Baohua's plan. As for image transfer via teleportation, special effects will be required.

In the entire Hong Kong film industry, when it comes to special effects, Tsui Hark is undoubtedly number one, and no one dares to say he's second.

In this day and age, to create good special effects, you not only need to spend a lot of money, but also have the technology and the right ideas.

At least you need to know how to create those special effects scenes. Looking at those films from back then with today's standards, they seem like they had five-cent special effects.

Even with these low-budget special effects, a great deal was paid for them.

Xing Baohua read it carefully twice, and felt that one section was acceptable, so he pointed it out.

After New Year's Day, we will begin special effects processing.

After leaving Tsui Hark's studio, Xing Baohua went to see the three bosses again.

Sister Li is an actress and singer heavily promoted by Huang Jingyan.

There was a misunderstanding before, and this person knew about it. In the end, they pretended not to know, which led to the last song that Xing Baohua mentioned.

Those who apologized apologized, and those who said nice things said nice things.

Especially the bald old man, whose performing talent is unmatched. Knowing that Xing Baohua is from Shandong, he also started speaking in the Shandong dialect.
