Chapter 519: There is a city, and it makes people extremely sad
PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly pass!
Johnston Moral Alley Building, Jianghu Emergency Film Production Company. (The original 1024 locomotive office site.) )
"Thank you. ”
Hou Xiaoyuan, who has a middle part, a fat body and dark skin, looks like a pot peach heart in the early years.
With a simple expression, he took the teacup, held it in the palm of his hand, rubbed it for a moment, and then said hello: "Adong, how are you doing lately?"
"Hmm. Luo Dong was as concise as ever.
"That's good......"
Hou lost money and took a sip of strong tea, his little black eyes swept around, and suddenly felt that his waist and eyes were poked, and when he turned around, he saw Yang Dezhuan glaring at him.
"Oh-by the way, how is Azu?"
"Hmm. Luo Dong nodded and popped out one more sentence, "It's good." ”
"Hehehe...... That's good, that's good, I'm good-hiss~"
Hou lost money's painful face, and then turned around, Yang Dezhuan folded Erlang's legs, took off his rimless glasses and put them to his mouth and sighed, looking like he was casually sven.
It's treacherous!
Hou lost money and thought about it faintly, or Wu Xiaozu was a real person, there was one thing to say and two to say.
Where are there so many flowery intestines like Lao Yang, sure enough, people who call social scalpels have mixed thoughts!
"The film industry is still booming now, and I came here to find out that you and Ah Cheng's company have become so big.
The 1024 locomotive has gone from a studio to a small group. It seems that the Hong Kong film market is really good......"
Hou lost money and plucked up his courage, but he found that Luo Dong silently handed over a newspaper, and his voice stopped abruptly-
"The box office failure of the movie produced by 1024 Locomotive, the myth of the industry is shattered and the loss is millions!" - "Oriental Daily".
Hou lost money and his facial features came together in tears, clasped his scalp with his hands, and looked at LYB as if asking for help-Yang Dezhuan glanced at this foolish thing.
it!
Yang Dechant put on his glasses slowly and methodically, looked at Luo Dong with a smile, three points of organization, three points of Zen and four points of sincerity...... He Jiu Shi said in a flickering manner: "Adong, I have also watched your filming."
To be honest, I feel that your potential is not just a superficial idol star, you are very shapely.
Director Hou's return to Wanwan is not to forget your potential, this is not ...... This time, I came here to bring a script and want to invite you to participate-"
Stretched out his hand towards Hou Xiaoyuan, and hooked his index finger: Take it!
?? (???) Hou lost money and looked unclear.
"Drama-Ben!"
A voice came out between Yang De's teeth, and after Hou lost the money, he realized that he took out a crumpled pile of paper from the bulging travel bag behind him-
Crash!!
The travel bag fell directly to the ground, and toiletries, underwear, underwear and materials were scattered on the ground like flowers.
"Sorry, it's too messy......"
Hou Xiaoyuan bent down to pick up the materials on the ground, gently wiped off the dust with his hands, sorted them out one by one, and carefully put away the script - on the contrary, he didn't care too much about the toothbrush, underwear and underwear, and stuffed it back in a mess.
“?”
Hou Xiaoran paused, raised his head, and also held a hand on the other side of the script in his hand, and the two of them pulled their hands on a piece of paper - Luo Dong squatted in front of him with a calm expression and nodded at him.
"Thank you. ”
"No, I don't. ”
Luo Dong nodded slightly, thought about it, and took out his cigarette, "Do you smoke?"
Hou Xiaoyuan took the cigarette, gave one to Yang Dezhuan, lit one himself, took a deep breath, exhaled the smoke, sighed deeply, and opened his mouth leisurely.
"I thought about this script for three years and prepared it for three years. In other words, in 1983, after filming the fifth work of my life, "The Man from the Wind Cabinet", I had such a hidden thought.
It wasn't until two years ago that I went to a friend's house and heard a song from that era, and the idea of making a movie first came to mind. That song seems to be a representative of that era, and it is very depressing and sad......
This play is about that era.
This thing is taboo in Wanwan. Everyone shy away from it, reluctant to touch it.
When I said I wanted to shoot this subject, many people advised me not to touch it because it was dangerous.
However, I didn't want to 'uncover the old scars', but to shoot a story from that time...... I'm more interested in ordinary people and their families than in socio-politics. History is great, but individuals are like a drop in the ocean in it.
But I'm more interested in the insignificance of individuals in comparison to the torrent of history! Do you know the 228 incident in Wanwan?"
Hou Xiaoyuan's black fat face was hidden in the smoke, maybe he was in a hurry, coughed twice, and was about to continue—but saw that Luo Dong didn't wait for him to speak.
"The 228 incident, from different standpoints, this may be an uprising, or it may be a riot, depending on which perspective you are in.
Objectively, there may be some people here who are in pursuit, but thieves and robbers and various speculators have made it degenerate.
This incident broke out in the second year after the recovery of Wanwan Province, when the industry, agriculture and commerce in Wanwan were basically paralyzed, lacking materials and lack of food and clothing. Don't talk about them, Dongying is in this state.
But the most embarrassing thing for the people of this province is that Wanwan has experienced nearly 50 years of colonial rule in Dongying at that time. The contradiction between the people of the province and the people of the province, the contradiction under the social tide.
It was precisely at that time that the Kuomintang chose the most wrong policy, which exacerbated this contradiction...... The intensification of policies, the bad economy, and the serious corruption have caused the contradictions to escalate.
In 47, the tobacco commissioner took the chengguan to smash the cigarette stall, and then the two sides fell into a fierce conflict - known as the 228 Incident in history!"
Luo Dong's expression was serious, and he was stunned for a moment when he told Hou Xiaoyuan and Yang Dezhuan, two Wanwan people.
When it comes to these things, he is like a treasure!
even gave the two of them military science directly:
"At that time, it was the Nationalist Army that was suppressed, and its predecessor was Liu Xiang's Sichuan Army! In 36 years, it began to be centralized and reorganized, and Baoding was a huge force in it.
In the Sino-Japanese War, he made outstanding achievements! He participated in the Songhu War, the Battle of Wuhan, the Second Battle of Changsha, and the Battle of Zhejiang-Jiangxi...... Later, Defense Minister Bai Chongxi personally led troops to Taiwan to suppress the 228 Uprising.
After that, he returned to China, and later in the civil war part of it was annihilated, and part of it was disarmed and surrendered......"
“…………”
Hou Xiaoyuan opened his mouth, feeling that the little thing in the script was really insignificant in history...... Sure enough, this drama should be light on the story and focus on the portrayal of characters, look at Luo Dong, who fell into silence after talking about politics and military affairs, he suddenly had a ridiculous idea:
If he comes to act, is it also suitable?
First, Luo Dong understands the background of the story. Second, the other party is influential, and the participation of Hong Kong Island actors is conducive to ensuring the success of the market. Third, the other party is just the right age. Fourth, he has worked with Luo Dong and knows that the other party has potential to tap and perform spiritually. Fifth, the other party's big guy is rich!
Hou Xiaoyuan gritted his teeth with the thought of breaking the kettle: "Adong, are you interested in this story?"
Yang Dezhuan was stunned.
He just handed over the script politely, and the purpose was to extend the topic, so as to talk about the initiative to this new play.
But looking at Hou Xiaoyuan's solemn appearance at this time, his heart was sudden.
A Hong Kong Island star acting in a localized movie in Wanwan, abrupt, right??
Hou Xiaoyuan seemed to understand Yang De's concerns, and the evil charm was rampant, and he said softly in a very tonal manner, "I'm thinking, just let Ah Si be dumb." ”
In his previous life, the young Liang Chaowei played Ah Si, but because he couldn't speak Chinese and Hokkien well, he directly became dumb. In this life, it's about the same.
Yang Dechant unexpectedly glanced at 'Roy Jian', who had been relatively silent.
He knows that Hou Xiaoyuan has long preferred to use non-professional actors, because non-professional actors look and feel very real and plain on the screen.
The starry flavor of the stars is too outstanding, and the good actors are too fine. However, what this drama needs is roughness and directly dissolve into those textures, otherwise it will really ruin the theme.
Luo Yijian, a star who played Chen Haonan, can do it????
He had reservations.
Of course, he also discovered that Roy Fitness has a temperament that other Hong Kong Island stars do not have.
Luo Dong glanced at the two of them lightly, not knowing what they were talking about.
Silently holding a cigarette, watching coldly, with his hands in his pockets, quietly in a daze.
That's what he is.
"Crazy Boy" not said that it made him famous in Asia, but he also became the most popular idol star all of a sudden.
However, he really doesn't have so many ** and ambitions.
Still down-to-earth and ignorant in love with Sister Shao, I have nothing to do to flip through military magazines, check all kinds of political and military materials, buy weapon models, and go to the boxing gym to practice boxing when I rest......
The big guy said that he was a star, because it was a craft to make a living, and he acted in movies; the big guy said that he could sing and increase his popularity, and he complied; the big guy said that he wanted to do some financial management and planning by himself, and he gave the money to Su Liyao to manage his finances.
At the beginning, Wu Xiaozu wanted to shoot "Butcher on a Rainy Night", he was the first to turn out the money, Wu Xiaozu was in urgent need of money in the stock market, he relied on the popularity of "Crazy Boy", and took on many bad movies outside in one breath to earn a salary for the big guy.
He doesn't like to be a star very much, so he doesn't have too many concerns.
He lives a simple life, he is not as motivated as Su Liyao, nor does he think too much as Fat Cheng, and naturally he is not as good as the big man's city.
Whether he has a net worth of millions, tens of millions, or money, he doesn't feel that it has much impact on him.
Live according to your preferences, be content and happy.
The days are good enough now.
"Adong?" asked Hou Xiaoran's eyes.
“?”
Luo Dong pinched the cigarette with his fingers, stared at Hou Xiaoyuan who seemed to be looking at him for help, his expression was indifferent, and he looked back quietly.
"Brother Chang, do you think that his eyes can reveal a lot of depression, emotional depression and a faint alienation?" Hou Xiaoyuan pushed Yang Dezhuan, "He is very stable. ”
Yang Dezhuan looked at Luo Dong carefully, and then turned his head to look at Hou Xiaoyuan, what kind of faint alienation, then it is alienation...... It's good if you're happy. Anyway, he is a big man and rich, so it's not bad to choose him.
…
One door away.
Two clumps of chandeliers hung on metal doorknobs, their ears pressed against the door, eavesdropping.
The tin foil is tied to the back of his head, his big round face, his chin is stacked in three layers, and his neck is hung with 'Li Heizi's same thumb thick gold necklace', and the golden Guan Gong tag is stuck in the trench, and Guan Gong's knife can't support the squeeze of the two peaks.
The gold-and-black printed Versace plus-size shirt was so stretched that the buttons had to withstand the unbearable bouncing of their luxury, and there was a large H Hermes belt under the belly, and a pair of large pants with the same gold and black print.
The fat feet under the smooth big thick legs lightly touched the ground, curling like the willow fluttering and twisting delicate posture in "The King of Comedy".
"Mr. Li?
Mr. Li, Stellar Entertainment arranged an advertisement for AlbertoVO5 shampoo for Miss Li and her sister. And want to sign her. The secretary reported softly, "But Miss Li's sister didn't agree......"
"Got it. Fei Cheng waved his hand.
He has been chasing a flight attendant named Li Ruoting recently. In order to spend money, I specially asked Stellar Entertainment to draw a print advertisement to the other party, and Li Ruoting also invited the seventh sister in the family to shoot this American shampoo advertisement together.
"That's right, Brother Zu...... Mr. Wu, did you call to inform me?"
"It has been notified, and Mr. Wu's secretary transferred it to Mr. Wu. Mr. Wu is playing golf in Fanling and will come back later. The secretary reported truthfully.
"Okay, you can get busy first. Fei Cheng didn't care too much, he thought that the big guy might not care too much about these two people.
Keep listening.
He could think of Luo Dong's expression.
In the room, Luo Dong looked at Hou with a faint expression and told him how good this movie is, how challenging this role is, how hard-won this story is, and how rich this project is.
"This guy Shi Lezhi, right? Talking to wood about this?" Fei Cheng rolled his eyes and muttered quietly.
……
New Territories, food stalls, fumes running around.
"Whew-"
Director Wu is wearing a white camisole and a towel around his neck, standing in front of the stove, the flames are high, he skillfully turns the spoon up and down, and the sand and fried clams in the pot are tumbling up and down, the red oil is overflowing, and the aroma is fragrant.
Wu Xiaozu casually lifted the towel around his neck to wipe his sweat, and personally put the end plate in front of He Chaoqiong.
beckoned the driver to take two bottles of Perrier from the Mercedes-Benz car, and rinsed the chopsticks with water, and then handed them to He Chaoqiong, "Come, try my roasted clams with soy sauce peppers!"
"It's the first time I know that you still need to ......do it yourself when you come to the food stall," He Chaoqiong smiled at the corner of her mouth, folded her beautiful legs wrapped in white slacks, took the chopsticks, brushed off the broken hair, put a chopstick into her mouth, opened her eyebrows slightly, and clamped another chopstick.
"Delicious, huh?"
"When I came out of the ancestral hall, I almost became a cook. I told Jiang Zhiqiang that if I lose the movie, I will go back and open a tea restaurant. ”
"You have a future as a cook, I will definitely guarantee you-" He Chaoqiong smiled.
"It's too late to ......wrap up now," Wu Xiaozu washed his hands with Parisian water, picked up his shirt, dusted off his upper body, and buttoned his shirt.
"Bring me the wine, I'm going to drink. Miss He waved angrily to her bodyguard, who came over with a bottle of Romanée Conti red wine and two Riedel crystal goblets.
"I'll come......" Wu Xiaozu refused the bodyguard, and took the seahorse knife to personally open red wine to Miss He, "Time doesn't allow, so I won't sober up." ”
"You can never wake up a drunken person who is pretending to be asleep. ”
He Chaoqiong smiled slightly, and slowly shook the wine glass, "It's the first time I've eaten a food stall and drunk red wine." ”
"So, you see, you need to drink this extravagant red wine in a prestigious restaurant, and the food stalls are really incompatible with it. It's also awkward to forcibly match together. Wu Xiaozu smiled, a pun.
"You're really boring. ”
He Chaoqiong stood up, stroked the folds of his pants at the hips, picked up the cup, took a sip of red wine at the bottom of the glass, and didn't look at Wu Xiaozu, beckoning to the food stall guy next to him, "Help me pack this plate of sand clams." ”
"Do you want red wine and wine glasses?"
"I've got you. ”
"Hehe~~"
Wu Xiaozu picked up the wine bottle, poured a sip into the bottle, smacked his mouth, looked at the slender back of He Chaoqiong in white casual clothes walking towards Rolls-Royce, and smiled, "I like to drink 82 years of Lafite......"
"If I have a chance, I'll buy you the winery, so that you can drink enough!" He Chaoqiong's voice was calm, but her words were very domineering.
"The Rothschilds......" Wu Xiaozu laughed.
"So what?"
He Chaoqiong leaned against the car door and sneered, "Baicui Winery has the same change of hands, Tu Lao Hat!"
This year Château Petri is in the news because it has hired a helicopter to dry the grapes due to rain. Compared to Lafite, it is more valuable.
In fact, in the red wine industry, although Lafite is a top brand, there are many wineries that do not lose to him. Lafite was popular in 1982, but Patrick in 1982 was even more expensive!
"Don't you know that the 82-year-old Lafite will never be able to drink it all?" Wu Xiaozu said with a smile.
In later generations, the local tyrants of China alone consumed more '82 Lafite' than the total amount of that year...... What a year for Bull B, continuous!
"Deep well ice. He Chaoqiong glanced at the other party, at this point in time in 1988, Lafite's 1982 was really not very luxurious.
Seeing He Chaoqiong leave, Wu Xiaozu carried Kangdi to his own peace.
"Hey, I'm Wu Xiaozu, who is it?"
Wu Xiaozu took a sip of red wine, listened to the sound in the earpiece, and was slightly stunned.
"Tung Wah Group of Hospitals...... Okay, no problem, I'll rush over there."
Wu Xiaozu listened to Ye Zhiming's voice on the phone and nodded.
Sit in the car.
Rubbing the bottle.
The Tung Wah Group of Hospitals is the oldest and largest charity on Hong Kong Island, and even the famous Jockey Club and the Community Chest of Hong Kong Island lose money to charity every year.
Of course, compared to the Jockey Club, it is relatively more popular.
At the same time, the relationship with the entertainment industry has always been very close, and every year, artists serve as honorary directors of the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals to help raise funds.
This time, the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals contacted Stellar Entertainment and wanted to carry out a happy activity in Tung Wah. TVB also participated in this event.
Wu Xiaozu, a "famous young philanthropist in the entertainment industry" who is willing to give, is also targeted...... and took the initiative to invite him to attend, and even hinted that as long as the donation is made, the board seat is not a problem.
There's no way, who made Director Wu famous!
Of course, if you can really donate more and have time to be in charge of operations, the chairman of the board of directors is not without opportunities!
Later, TVB's third-tier artists became the chairman, and of course, his identity was still the heir of a billionaire.
Tung Wah Group of Hospitals cooperates with the entertainment industry every year, and the celebrities have great influence, making it easier to raise funds!
It is not a problem for celebrities to become directors of the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals! Because the directors of the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals are not fixed, but are nominated according to the annual contribution list.
Director Wu pondered how to progress...... Do good deeds for less!
Or simply don't spend money......
If you can make money and do good deeds...... Ahem...... That's even better. Of course, he will not choose to cheat donations, greedy ink, etc., it is not a matter of bad conscience, but it is not worth it at all!8)
