Chapter 857: Brother
The greatest character of man is to turn a momentary impulse into the most mundane behavior.
And all greatness actually comes from a brave beginning.
In an office in Central, Hong Kong.
A handsome and introverted man with bright starry eyes sat there, surrounded by a tall man who was sunny and handsome, gentle and elegant, who looked at the former with warmth in his eyes.
"There's a notebook, Andy asked someone to send it over, do you want to take a look?"
The person sitting opposite the man is named Chen Shufen, and people who are familiar with the Hong Kong entertainment industry call her "Mrs. Chen", known as a gold medal agent, and she has discovered countless star artists, Leslie Cheung, Anita Mui, Jacky Cheung, Shen Dianxia, Zhang Zhilin and others were once her artists.
Among them, she has the best personal relationship with Leslie Cheung, and can be called a close friend and confidant.
You must know that in the 80s, Chen Shufen jumped ship and left Huaxing Records and set up the first professional brokerage company on Hong Kong Island by herself.
is also known for his meticulous service and care for celebrities, Wang Jinghua is just superficial, while Chen Shufen has really become friends with artists.
"Andy's script?" The handsome man smiled slightly, and his eyes looked at the tall and handsome man next to him, and the other party's face was always warm as spring.
"yes, I took a look, and you might like it. "Mrs. Chen doesn't mind the appearance of tall men, for her, handsome men can do anything they like.
"Is it, so interesting?" The handsome man is naturally Zhang Guorong, who is known as his brother in the circle.
Regarding the origin of "brother", there are basically two versions that can be confirmed: one is that when he and Lin Qingxia cooperated in filming, the crew called Lin Qingxia's sister and Zhang Guorong's brother up and down, and later the title of "brother" followed Zhang Guorong forever.
The other is that when Leslie Cheung and Wang Guxian collaborated on "A Chinese Ghost Story", she always called Leslie Cheung "brother", and later everyone called Leslie Cheung "brother". Due to the rumors that the rumors have been around for a long time, everyone gradually doesn't care which version of these two versions is the most certain, anyway, everyone calls Zhang Guorong "brother".
"Well, not bad, I just watched some. Zhang Guorong's lover Tang Hede said.
When he was waiting for Zhang Guorong just now, he took the manuscript and read it for a while, and I have to say that it is indeed very good.
Hearing Ah Tang say this, Zhang Guorong shrugged his shoulders and showed a childlike smile, originally he was not interested in this script, but now he is somewhat interested.
When it comes to his status, there is really no need to think about whether to accept anyone's play, Zhang Guorong himself is a rich child, a person who is not short of money, to put it mildly, whether he is filming or singing, it is more of his own hobby.
Speaking of which, the education of actors in Hong Kong is generally low, which is similar to those so-called traffic stars in China after more than ten years, the only thing that is better than those traffic stars is that the actors in Hong Kong are not from a good background, so most of them are working hard at the bottom of the crew, and their ability and experience are the best choices, and what they lack is knowledge reserves.
In other words, when these people act in movies or TV series, they wear Hong Kong Putonghua accents, not because they deliberately do so, but because they really don't have the ability to speak Mandarin.
Of course, this does not include Zhang Guorong.
Singing, he is the protagonist of Tan Zhang's hegemony, which made the famous host Wang Han crazy in the future, and even took the initiative to attack the fans who liked Principal Tan in the same dormitory.
acting, he won the Academy Award for Best Actor with "The True Story of A Fei", and almost won the Best Actor at the Cannes Film Festival with "Farewell My Concubine", but the reason why he only lost one vote was because "Farewell My Concubine" won the highest Palme d'Or in Cannes, and the judges' consideration was to disperse the awards.
Even when he gradually faded out of the entertainment industry, in 99, in order to bring vitality to the sluggish Hong Kong film industry, 20 Hong Kong directors formed a "creative alliance", and the film "Meteor Language" directed by Zhang Zhiliang was also an important activity. Zhang Zhiliang found many first-line actors in Hong Kong, but Leslie Cheung agreed to star in the movie, and symbolically only charged one yuan for the film.
Gentle and elegant, with a good demeanor, like a handsome son, and like a boy next door.
He is 46 years old this year, and his name is Zhang Guorong.
Another year, on April Fool's Day, he would leap off the Mandarin Oriental Hotel to end his life of suffering.
What is left to the world is endless legends.
gave others hope for a lifetime, but when he needed courage the most, he left in the most cowardly way.
This is Leslie Cheung, a legend in the Hong Kong film industry.
And now, he picked up a story that Zhao Fusheng sent to Liu Dehua and was forwarded to him by Liu Dehua.
..................
..................
The reason why Zhao Fusheng was not able to go to Hong Kong to meet Zhang Guorong in person was very simple, because he did not have a Hong Kong and Macao pass, and if he wanted to handle this thing, he needed to return to his household registration, and the time was about half a month.
It's a sad story.
Therefore, in desperation, Zhao Fusheng had no choice but to mail the manuscript to his only acquaintance on Hong Kong Island, Liu Tianwang, and asked him to help hand over the manuscript to Mrs. Chen, and asked the other party to forward it to Zhang Guorong.
After Liu Tianwang received Zhao Fusheng's call, he was still a little surprised, how Zhao Fusheng thought of writing a story for Zhang Guorong. He even wondered if it was possible for him to play a role.
But when he read the entire manuscript, he understood what was going on, and naturally dismissed that idea.
Everyone has the difference between suitable and unsuitable, not all roles are suitable for every actor, the most obvious example, you ask Wang Qiang to play a great man in history, no matter how you look at it, it feels out of place, because his image has been ingrained in our minds.
In the same way, Liu Dehua knows very well that his image will definitely not be able to act in this "Capital Story".
On the contrary, my brother may really like this story.
Although the relationship with Leslie Cheung is average, Lau Dehua also knows that Leslie Cheung has been in a bad state in recent years, and his previous appearance in "Infernal Affairs" is also because the Hong Kong Island film market has continued to slump in recent years, and it is not easy to have a big production that can save the city.
In fact, Zhang Guorong's current situation can be said to be very poor.
PS: Croatia actually won, haha, my hunch was right.
