Chu Yuan had never seen Wu Changyun's movies, so the atmosphere became awkward.
The host did not regret asking this question. Creating conflicts is beneficial to the ratings of TV programs. Besides, it is a fact.
Chu Yuan didn't think there was anything wrong with it. They were recording a show, not broadcasting live, so they just had to cut out the unpleasant parts.
"You didn't even look at the top box office hit. You're behind the times, Brother Chu." Luo Wei said deliberately.
Brigitte Lin deliberately coughed twice to ease the embarrassment, but it didn't work at all.
Chu Yuan has also been deeply involved in the industry for many years and is very well-known in the industry. It is true that he has studied enough for other young directors to learn for a lifetime. But at the same time, he also has a kind of aloof and arrogant temperament.
Lo Wei is different. He believes that his life is a history of being talented but not appreciated. He went from being a big shot at Golden Harvest to being ignored, and then had a conflict with Bruce Lee.
The most outrageous thing is his collaboration with Chan Kong-sang. He made several movies with Chan Kong-sang but they were all ineffective and the box office was very poor.
As soon as Chan Kong-sang left him and joined Yuen Woo-ping's team, he immediately became a new benchmark in action movies. Whose fault is this? I'm afraid outsiders and the media have their own opinions.
Lo Wei has an eye for talent, but he hasn't produced films that audiences like.
Lo Wei, 60 years old this year, has a wider network of contacts than Chu Yuan. In terms of seniority, he can be regarded as the mentor who brought the genius Bruce Lee to Hong Kong. If he had not had any truly amazing works, how could he have become a supporting role among the three directors.
"Outdated? That's not the right thing for you to say."
Chu Yuan was not willing to be outdone. One of them thought that the other lacked talent in film and was just trying to gain fame.
One of them thinks that the other is self-righteous and superior. Anyway, these two people dislike each other.
Wu Changyun was originally at war with Golden Harvest, but he was really powerless against Luo Wei because the other party had long since left Golden Harvest and they had no connection at all.
"Okay, okay, stop arguing and talk about the new work."
Wu Changyun really couldn't stand the bickering between these two industry giants. Although he preferred Luo Wei's irrelevant verbal attacks, he would probably be annoyed if it happened to him.
Wu Changyun mentioned his new work and also asked Lin Qingxia, who played the role, to talk about it.
This successfully aroused Chu Yuan's interest. Unexpectedly, Wu Changyun did not continue to make third-rate films with a Jianghu style this year, but instead focused on large-scale films that sounded more vulgar.
When Wu Changyun said this, he realized that he might be misunderstood. He glanced at Luo Wei and Chu Yuan.
The two people's reactions were very different. In Luo Wei's opinion, this was nothing. Those who follow the trend will prosper, while those who go against it will perish. Trying some new themes is the right way. In this regard, he still admires Wu Changyun very much, but it's a pity that he himself can't learn it.
Chu Yuan let out a long sigh, and he didn't participate in the topic much afterwards.
Originally, it was the company's arrangement to invite him here today.
After the interview program ended, Chu Yuan hurriedly planned to leave the TV station, and Luo Wei also caught up with Wu Changyun from behind. It happened to rain outside at this time, and Wu Changyun's car was parked on the street across the road, so the two began to chat at the gate of the TV station.
"You have good taste, you can recruit such a good actor from TVB."
"I can't compare to Mr. Luo." Wu Changyun said modestly.
At this time, the two of them caught a glimpse of Chu Yuan waiting nearby, who must have also parked his car outside.
"Come, come, come."
Luo Wei waved to Chu Yuan, who was sulking on the side, and the three of them gathered together again.
Wu Changyun couldn't help but complain in his heart, this guy is really a troublemaker.
This time, the conversation between the three was completely different from the previous one on the show. Chu Yuan expressed his true thoughts. He changed his previous strong attitude during the recording of the show and talked about his plan to retire.
Wu Changyun didn't dare to respond to this, as it sounded like this was a bit of a sarcasm towards Luo Wei.
"I'm 60 years old this year and I haven't said I'm going to retire yet. How old are you and you're planning to quit?"
"The future is definitely not the era of martial arts films. Although I am not old, my works are already old." Chu Yuan said helplessly. Even though he was reluctant, Wu Changyun in front of him was a living example. His movies were no longer selling.
"Brother, are you really planning to quit?"
"Well, this is not fake at all. Who would joke about such a thing?"
Chu Yuan sighed, covered his head with his hands helplessly, and ran towards his car in two or three steps.
Luo Wei also wanted to run away, but it was indeed risky to do so at his age, so he could only hold on to the young and strong Wu Changyun and keep chatting with him.
"Senior Luo, I'm also in a hurry."
Wu Changyun left Luo Wei alone at the door of the building and got into the car.
"Did the recording of the show go smoothly?" Liang Jiahui looked back at Wu Changyun, who had been waiting in the car for more than half an hour.
Because this Camaro was given to Liang Jiahui, Wu Changyun changed to a more low-key business car, but he still has to complete the documents and procedures.
Sports cars are just for fun. Not only will you be recognized wherever you go, but you will also be seen as a show-off.
Wu Changyun had long wanted to change his car, and he took this opportunity to give it to Liang Jiahui.
"It's okay. The two old guys haven't seen each other for a long time, so they were teasing each other."
Wu Changyun waited for a while, and Brigitte Lin walked out of the building and got into the car again. There was a TVB staff member beside her to help hold an umbrella.
"This beauty is treated differently."
"It's a friend, I knew him before," Brigitte Lin explained.
"I used to be a mentor at TVB, so how come I don't have a close friend like you? Isn't it just the effect of my beauty?"
"What's the yellow light?"
"Oh, sorry, just pretend I didn't say that." Wu Changyun still occasionally says things that people today don't understand, but everyone has become accustomed to it.
It’s the end of another year. In addition to preparing for the Lunar New Year holiday, we decided to spend the New Year at the company this year.
Because the actors in the company are very young and most of them are not married, many of their family elders are doing business outside.
Zhou Huiting has been busy making preparations these days. After all, they are all acquaintances in the company, so she did not delegate it to her subordinates and did it all herself.
Wu Changyun also invited Chen Gangsheng. With Chen Gangsheng, Sammo Hung is naturally indispensable. The two of them will definitely meet at the master's place. It seems that it is only a matter of time before they exchange information.
On Chinese New Year's Day, the courtyard of Qi Ji Film Company was covered with various Spring Festival couplets, and red lanterns and firecracker paper were scattered all over the ground. Everyone was talking to each other at the top of their lungs, and the sound of firecrackers was everywhere.
The first one to arrive was Sammo Hung. He was a very particular person and brought lots of gifts with him.
Zeng Zhiwei also followed suit. This year, Sammo Hung fulfilled his promise and gave Zeng Zhiwei a role in the new work, which seemed like he was acting with a friend.
