535 [Film Association (I)]
Mandarin Hong Kong Island.
Today is the day of the establishment of the Hong Kong Film Society, and at this time, the banquet room is full of invited guests, densely packed, not to mention seven or eight hundred people.
The guests were full of friends, the glasses were staggered, and many familiar filmmakers came together to exchange and reminisce about the past.
"Sister Xia Meng hasn't seen you for a long time. ”
Chen Sisi looked happily at her friend who she hadn't seen for many years, and couldn't help but excitedly stepped forward to hug her.
Xia Meng looked at his former colleagues and friends, and also said, "Yes, Sisi, I haven't seen you for many years." ”
Both of them were one of the three princesses of the Great Wall Film Company back then, Xia Meng, as the eldest princess, has always taken good care of her two younger sisters, although she is not a sister, but the relationship has always been very harmonious.
The two sisters talked about their feelings, and after greetings, Xia Meng smiled at Gao Yuan beside Chen Sisi, and said with a smile: "Gao Yuan heard that you are preparing to do foreign trade business recently?"
"Yes, in recent years, Hong Kong's foreign trade market has become bigger and bigger, and I am also old and can't film, so I want to do foreign trade. ”
Gao Yuan nodded, he is Chen Sisi's husband, and he was also a famous "handsome boy" of Phoenix Pictures in the early years, and Chen Sisi was in love because of the play, and he has also worked in Shaw Brothers Films in the past two years, but with the younger generation of actors coming to power, he basically plays the role of his father or elders, so he has the idea of retiring.
"Well, Hong Kong's foreign trade business has been very good recently, if Gao Yuan has any way to make a fortune, he must remember to bring our old forest. ”
Xia Meng smiled, her husband Lin Baocheng's garment factory has been doing very bad business recently, and the two of them are having a headache about it. You must know that the establishment of this garment factory has cost almost all the money of the two of them, and if they continue to lose money, although they will not fall into the northwest wind, it will be almost the same.
"No problem, Sister Xia Meng. Takato smiled.
Chen Sisi on the side suddenly asked, "Sister Xia Meng, I heard that you are preparing to make a comeback and return to the film industry recently?"
"It's not a comeback. ”
Xia Meng hesitated for a few seconds and said: "Phoenix TV is ready to invite me to come back to shoot a serial, there are more scenes, and the role is also very important, I am still considering whether to agree." ”
Phoenix TV is recently recruiting for the script written by Yishu, this drama is about the grievances and hatreds between several big families, and the investment is relatively large, among which there is a female character who is very suitable for Xia Meng, He Zuozhi personally called to invite her to come back to filming.
It's just that Xia Meng has been in the film for ten years, not to mention whether there is a problem with her acting skills, the most important thing is that she can't pull this face, she got married and quit the film industry at the most popular age, and now when she is old, she has to play a supporting role for the younger generation, and no one feels comfortable in her heart.
……
"Su Qiu. ”
Yu Suqiu looked back when she heard the voice, and saw "Inspector Cao Dahua" coming over with a smile, and suddenly said in surprise: "Brother Hua!"
"Haha, it's still a good relationship between Brother Hua and Su Qiu, I haven't seen each other for so many years, and when I see us, I still call Su Qiu's name first. Nan Hong covered her mouth and smiled.
Hearing this, Wu Junli, Yu Lizhen, Luo Yanqing, Deng Biyun and others who were left in the "Eight Peony" next to them also covered their mouths and laughed.
"What did Ah Hong say!"
Yu Suqiu glanced at Nanhong, then looked at Cao Dahua and said, "Brother Hua, why did you come here alone?"
"She's not in good health, and she's at home with her grandchildren. Cao Dahua's wife Zhu Qihua was also an actress of Phoenix Pictures in her early years, but after marrying him, she stopped filming at home and taught her husband and children.
"Isn't my sister-in-law's health okay?" asked Yu Suqiu with concern, and several people next to her also looked worried.
"It's an old problem, it's not a big deal. ”
Inspector Cao didn't seem to want to talk too much about family affairs, waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Today's opportunity is rare, just now I saw the "Nine Sisters" and the "Three Princesses of the Great Wall", but I didn't expect to meet the "Eight Peonies" again at this time, haha, it seems that it is the right choice to come to this film association today." ”
"Sister Xia Meng is here too, then I have to go over and visit." When Yu Suqiu heard this, she hurriedly looked left and right to find Xia Meng's traces.
"Over there, you've seen it in the past. Cao Dahua pointed in a direction.
"I'll go over first, you can chat with Brother Hua. ”
Seeing this, Yu Suqiu turned around and said a few words to the sisters, turned around and walked in the direction of Xia Meng, leaving the "Seven Peonies" to communicate with "Inspector Cao".
Just before she could take a few steps, she saw Hong Jinbao coming over.
"Senior sister. Hong Jinbao led a few juniors and shouted.
Yu Suqiu's father is the famous Peking Opera singer Yu Zhanyuan, and Hong Jinbao and others are Yu Zhanyuan's apprentices.
Yu Suqiu asked, "Jin Bao, you came just in time, did you just see Miss Xia Meng?"
Yuan Lou hurriedly pointed behind him and said, "Senior sister, Miss Xia Meng is over there." ”
"Okay, I see. Settle down, don't make a fuss, there are a lot of older generation filmmakers here today, don't bump into others. Yu Suqiu said as a senior sister.
"We know Senior Sister. "Although Hong Jinbao has relied on the Hong family class in the film industry in the past few years, he still respects his master and sister, and he is indeed a lot of bigwigs in the film industry today, so he naturally doesn't dare to be too showy.
After watching his senior sister leave, Hong Jinbao turned his head to Yuan Lou and continued to ask, "Ah Long, are you sure you think clearly?"
Yuan Lou thought for a while, nodded and said, "Sure, Director Luo is very good to me, but Mr. He sincerely invited me to join Golden Harvest, and I really don't know how to shirk it." ”
In February last year, Yuanlou was signed by Luo Wei Company to its subsidiary, and it didn't take long for him to play the leading role in "New Jing Wumen", which can be said to be very favorable, after all, "Jing Wu Men" is one of Bruce Lee's classic films, he played a small role as soon as he joined the company, and there is a big beauty Miao Kexiu as a supporting role, which is enough to see how much Director Luo Wei cares about him.
Then "New Jingwumen" sold well at the box office, and Yuan Lou was also famous, he was quite proud in his heart, but with his younger brother Yuan Biao joining Huanyu Film Company, the "Zombie Dao Chief" directly sold 10 million box office, and this year he participated in "Zombie Dao Chang 2", and filmed a "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", which made Yuan Lou unwilling.
Not long ago, He Guanchang was very optimistic about Yuanlou, so he communicated with him privately, hoping that he could come to Jiahe, and gave treatment in advance, for example, after entering Jiahe, the company invested in a blockbuster film by him as the leading actor, etc., under all kinds of temptations, Yuanlou had plans to defect to Jiahe, but he had been hesitating, so he talked about it with his senior brother Hong Jinbao, hoping to give some advice.
