    Lin Jianming's face was filled with uncertainty. How could he not hear the hint in Lin Youlun's words?

    Lin Baixin is getting old, and she may give up and return to the West at some point. After that, is it not up to Lin Jianming to decide whether the Lin family will continue to be enemies of Lin Youlun?

    Of course, all this must be based on the premise that Lin Jianming can qualify as the family heir.

    "Mr. Lin, I know you have a lot of concerns about this trip to Taiwan. Either you will never come back, or you will find that Lin Jianyue has legitimately controlled the entire family industry after you come back. But there is a saying that the higher the risk, the greater the reward.  , for you, what greater risk is there than living in the shadow of Lin Jianyue your whole life? If you fail, your situation will not be worse than now, but if you succeed, what I just said will be reversed  Come here, Lin Jianyue will look at your eyes and act for the rest of his life Now that we have said that, it is Mr. Lin¡¯s own business to make the decision!"

    After saying that, Lin Youlun glanced at Lin Zhiling, who was standing nearby. The other party came over and politely reminded Lin Jianming that the appointment time for the meeting had arrived.

    After seeing off Lin Jianming, Lin Zhiling returned to Lin Youlun's office and saw Lin Youlun leaning on the executive chair with his eyes closed, folding his hands and not knowing what he was thinking.

    Lin Zhiling planned to leave quietly, but before she could turn around, Lin Youlun opened her eyes.

    "What, do you have something to tell me?"

    Lin Zhiling glanced at Lin Youlun worriedly, "Do you really think Lin Jianming can succeed in going to Taiwan this time?"

    "If you plan something, it's up to God to do it. I've shown him the way. Whether he can succeed or not depends on whether he has the destiny!"

    "You also believe in fate?" Lin Zhiling's eyes showed a hint of surprise.

    "I just said that luck is part of success. What does this have to do with whether you believe in fate or not?" Lin Youlun sat upright.  He asked curiously.

    ¡°Since you don¡¯t believe this, are you still going to ask the Thai mage named White Dragon King to preside over the blessing ceremony for the launch of the new movie?¡±

    Lin Youlun was stunned.

    "How did you know this?"

    Before Lin Zhiling could speak, he asked himself: "Oh, I know, it must be Xiao Min or Xiao Xian who told you, right?"

    Lin Youlun was still shaking his head as he spoke. Unexpectedly, Lin Zhiling¡¯s relationship with Zhou Huimin and Wang Zuxian had already gotten so good. Any disturbance around him in the future would probably not be hidden from the beautiful secretary in front of him.

    "I don't believe it. But many people in the Hong Kong film industry believe this. I'm just following the crowd by asking the White Dragon King to come over and pray."

    Lin Youlun's explanation seemed reasonable, but Lin Zhiling always felt that something was wrong. Of course, she was suspicious, and she did not continue to dwell on this topic.

    ¡°So you¡¯ve already decided what type of film you¡¯re going to make for your new film?¡±

    ¡°I just have a rough idea, I have to wait until the script comes out to finalize it.¡±

    Although he promised the White Dragon King, it can be seen that Lin Youlun is not very enthusiastic about this matter.  He wasn't the one who was anxious anyway.

    Lin Zhiling was not surprised by Lin Youlun's occasional laziness. Just when she was about to change the topic, the phone on Lin Youlun's desk suddenly rang.

    Seeing that Lin Youlun had no intention of answering the phone, Lin Zhiling had no choice but to walk over and pick up the phone.

    "Hello, this is Mr. Lin's office."

    The call came from the front desk of the company lobby, and Lin Zhiling¡¯s voice was quite special.  So the other side immediately recognized her identity.

    "Assistant Lin, Manager Mai Danxiong of Jiayi Cinemas' Overseas Distribution Department wants to see Mr. Lin. He said that he had an appointment with you before, but we have no record here, so"

    As soon as I heard Mai Shanxiong¡¯s name.  Lin Zhiling suddenly remembered this incident.

    "Yes, Manager Mai did call and make an appointment with me yesterday. I haven't had time to tell you yet."

    "Can we let Manager Mai in now?"

    "Wait a moment, let me confirm."

    As she spoke, Lin Zhiling covered the microphone with her hand, and then whispered to Lin Youlun: "Mai Shanxiong is here."

    Lin Youlun frowned slightly, "Do you know what he wants from me?"

    "It seems that he has an idea for a new film. He should be here to talk to you about it today."

    ¡°That¡¯s okay, you can bring him in.¡±

    Lin Youlun retied the tie that had been ripped open at the collar, and asked Lin Zhiling to take a look at it to make sure there was nothing wrong. Then he sat upright and prepared to meet Mai Shanxiong.

    Lin Zhiling led Mai Shanxiong into Lin Youlun¡¯s house?The office, then brought two more cups of freshly brewed coffee, then closed the door and left.

    Lin Youlun took a sip of coffee, put it down and asked Mai Shanxiong with a smile: "What, you can't stop and want to come out and practice your skills again?"

    "It made Mr. Lin laugh, but it can't be said to be a complete comeback. This time I will only be the producer. The specific filming is left to the production company's team."

    Mai Shanxiong¡¯s answer did not surprise Lin Youlun, but Lin Youlun would not take Mai Shanxiong¡¯s words completely seriously.

    In the Hong Kong film circle, Mak Shanxiong and Xu Ke are both famous for their preference to use the name of producer to do their work as director. Therefore, even though the director of many works is someone else, when people talk about these movies, they will still regard them as the two of them.  s work.

    Of course, these are all matters of detail. Lin Youlun is more concerned about what Mai Shanxiong wants to shoot this time.

    ¡°It¡¯s a gangster movie, and if nothing else, it should be my last gangster movie.¡±

    "Don't say it's not the last one. No one can predict what will happen in the future. If there is a lot of potential for gangster movies in the future, will you really stop making them?"

    Lin Youlun frowned, obviously not agreeing with Mai Shanxiong's statement.

    "Mr. Lin, do you really think there will be space for gangster movies to survive in the future?" Mai Shanxiong asked in return.

    "Are you worried that after Hong Kong's return, the government will not allow such movies to be made again?" Lin Youlun immediately asked the key to the problem.

    Mak Shanxiong nodded. In fact, not only him, but many Hong Kong filmmakers now have such concerns. After Hong Kong's return, certain themes may no longer be touched.

    "Things are not as complicated as you think. The mainland government promised that horses will still run and dance after Hong Kong's return. Why can't gangster movies be made anymore? It's just that there will be fewer and fewer gangster movies in the future. You don't see this trend.  I'm wrong, but this really has nothing to do with Hong Kong's return. The main reason is that gangsters will only become more and more low-key in Hong Kong in the future, and the government will crack down on such behavior more and more. In the future, everyone  When it comes to Hong Kong gangs, maybe we can only feel nostalgic in movies."

    At this point, Lin Youlun suddenly realized that he seemed to have gone off topic, and then brought the topic back: "There will be fewer and fewer gangster movies in the future. On the one hand, it is related to the social climate change in Hong Kong, and on the other hand, it is mainly caused by  Determined by market factors. After Hong Kong's return, the mainland film market will be further opened to us. In comparison, the Hong Kong film market will become insignificant. Gangster films are neither allowed in the mainland nor have an audience base. Films of this type will be made in the future.  Naturally, there are fewer film directors.¡±

    Mai Shanxiong couldn't help but nodded. Lin Youlun indeed saw it more thoroughly than him in this regard.

    "If Mr. Lin says this, I feel relieved, and I can feel free and bold to make the movies I want to make in the future."

    Hearing this, Lin Youlun, who was about to pick up the coffee to drink, quickly raised his hand and stopped Mai Danxiong.

    ¡°You¡¯d better take it easy and don¡¯t do anything dangerous on the set again. Be careful that the audience and actors will join forces to boycott you later!¡±

    Mai Shanxiong smiled awkwardly.

    Lin Youlun only gave Mai Shanxiong a heads up and didn't really mean to embarrass him, so he changed the topic.

    "Which big shot on the road are you planning to bring to the screen this time?"

    Mak Shan-hsiung led the trend of Hong Kong gangster biopics with "The Crippled Man", and last year he made "The Storm", which was an autobiography of Yin Kwok-kui, and became a sensation. Who in Hong Kong is the most powerful and courageous in making such films?  Mai Shanxiong is ranked second, and absolutely no one dares to be first.

    Mai Shanxiong wanted to make a gangster movie, so Lin Youlun naturally thought of it, but Mai Shanxiong's answer was beyond his expectation.

    ¡°The story I want to shoot this time is also based on reality, but the characters are fictional, and this time I want to shoot not Hong Kong, but Taiwan!¡±
