026 【Meet Hong Kyung-bo】
"Brother Long, rest, I'll invite you to eat rice rolls. "In the summer, we gave the rice rolls to everyone one by one, so that everyone could touch their own joy.
"Ah Tian, is the wound on your head okay?" Di Long asked with a smile as he took the rice rolls.
A few days ago, it was he who accidentally broke Summer's head while filming.
"It's been fine for a long time, Brother Long. You see, there are no scars left. Summer waved her hand and smiled.
"Then I'm relieved. Di Long nodded, "By the way, I heard them say that you have recently started writing novels, how are you doing?" he asked curiously.
"It's okay, I just went to sign a contract with Mr. Jin Yong today, and it will be serialized in "Ming Pao" in a few days. Summer replied with a smile.
"Really?! Congratulations. Writing novels and becoming a writer is much more promising than being a dragon and tiger martial artist. Di Long smiled and praised, "By the way, do you want me to introduce a few famous artists to you?"
"No need, Brother Long, thank you. I'm just making a little fuss, how embarrassed to meet those famous people. Summer smiled and declined.
He wrote martial arts novels just to make money and become famous, and it was enough to know Jin Yongxia. No matter how much other famous people know, they can't help him.
"In that case, forget it. Di Long smiled and said, he didn't feel like he had lost face because of Summer's refusal.
Seeing that Di Long was a big star, he didn't have a little arrogance, and he was polite to his little dragon and tiger martial artist, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional. No wonder people have been popular for 50 years, and there will still be filming after the new century. Some of the new stars who are a little famous and start to be arrogant really have to learn from these old-timers.
……
Because "The Ring" is the last scene that Master Tang Jia filmed at Shaw Brothers, it is very commemorative, so although he has decided not to be a Dragon and Tiger martial artist in the summer, he still stays in the crew to accompany Master through the last mile.
Four days later, the drama "The Ring" was finally completed, and Tang Jia bid farewell to Shaw Brothers Pictures and will go to TVB in the near future.
Before leaving, the disciples held a banquet for Master Tang Jia in the restaurant, first, to comfort his old man and let him not be too sad and sad, and second, to build momentum for his old man, so that he could take up his post in style.
Tang Jia studied under Yuan Xiaotian and has served the Shaw Brothers for more than 20 years. Because of this, his protégés were also countless, and it was not enough to book ten tables for the banquet, and finally added ten tables before he could barely sit down.
That day was also full of friends, like Liu Jialiang, Hong Jingbao, Cheng Long, Yuan Heping, the most beautiful filmmakers in the Hong Kong film industry today, all came to the banquet. For a while, the stars were shining, and everyone was dazzled.
Although Xia Jia is Tang Jia's beloved disciple, because of his small and humble position, he is not qualified to sit in the box to accompany the guests, and only sits in the hall with Chen Yixin to drink.
"Wow, Master Tang's popularity is really good, so many big brothers in the film industry have come to cheer. Chen Yixin said enviously, as long as he knows one of these big brothers, he doesn't have to worry about life.
Summer also smiled, originally this banquet was just going to invite fellow brothers, but I didn't expect these big brothers in the film industry to come one after another when they heard the news. Even if some people didn't arrive, they all sent representatives to participate, which was really a great face-saving experience for Master.
This is also because Tang Jia is popular, although he is a generation of martial arts masters, he is usually low-key and unassuming, and his personality is kind and easy to speak, so he can make so many good friends.
"I really didn't expect that Master would have such deep connections in the film and television industry, and even Hong Jingbao and Cheng Long were respectful to his old man. Xia secretly rejoiced in his heart, he originally hoped to develop in the film industry, but he was distressed that there was no place to borrow. Now seeing that Master has accumulated such a deep network, he can't help but be moved.
"It's a good thing to be able to meet these big brothers, talk, have a glass of wine, and make an impression. Summer sat there and thought.
He knows that the most important thing in the development of the film and television industry is not money, but connections. The road is easy to walk with more friends, but it is not an empty word. If you can successfully connect with these big brothers, then you won't have to worry about having no chance to improve.
It's just that although the idea is good, how can I get to know these big brothers? I am an unknown junior, and if I am not introduced, even if I get close to them and talk to them, I will not leave a deep impression on others.
You must know that 99% of the people here today want to move forward, hoping to make friends with these big brothers in the film industry. How can you stand out and stand out?
was thinking about it, when he heard Chen Yixin snort and laughed, "Brother Tian, look, someone has eaten the closed door again." ”
Summer looked in the direction he was pointing and saw a man walking back. "Hey, why are you stopping me, I just want to go and toast Master Tang with a glass of wine. He struggled to himself.
"Don't bother, Master Tang will come out and have a drink with everyone later. The two of them laughed together and said, like this, I want to take the opportunity of toasting to befriend these big brothers in the film industry, they have already stopped six waves just now.
Summer smiled wryly, originally they didn't book a box for the banquet. However, there are too many VIPs who came today, especially superstars like Cheng Long and Hong Jingbao also came to cheer, so in order to avoid accidents, they were invited into the box. It's just that in this way, it also made Summer lose the opportunity to get acquainted with these big brothers in the film industry.
"How could you be so unlucky? He said depressedly.
At this moment, I heard a bang, and the door of the box opened. Then I saw Tang Jia, accompanied by Xu Chongxin, Guo Xiao and other star disciples, toasting from table to table.
Xu Chongxin and Guo Xiao are both martial arts stars who have already become famous, and Xu Chongxin is the one who plays the last villain Lei Yixiao in "Huang Feihong: Iron Fighting Centipede", with first-class kung fu.
Guo Xiao is the confidant and favorite of director Zhang Cheda, who was once a smash hit in the 70s, and now he is the boss of his own film company. Summer also knew that in the future, he would enter Hollywood and become an internationally renowned martial arts instructor.
The two of them are the most capable star martial artists in the Tang family's class, with great reputation and seniority, so they are naturally qualified to accompany the master, so that they can't help but feel a little envious when they see it in the summer.
In the midst of envy, Tang Jia had already come close and drank with everyone one by one.
"Master, can you help me introduce those big brothers in the film industry later?" Xia seized the opportunity and quietly asked Master.
Tang Jia was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "Okay, but don't be rude later." ”
Although he is still an unknown junior in the summer, Tang Jia is very optimistic about his future. Because he is a rare cultural person among the dragon and tiger martial artists.
The general dragon and tiger martial artists are rough men, and they don't know a few big characters, even if they have the opportunity to develop in the future, they will be promoted to martial arts instructors or martial arts actors at most, and there is no one in ten thousand who can reach the status of Cheng Long and Hong Jingbao. Moreover, the dragon and tiger martial artists all eat the rice of youth, and once they are over forty years old, they are basically finished. The decline of physical strength combined with the distress of old injuries is enough to make people feel painful.
But summer was different, he took a different path, this one was smoother and safer, and his life was not in danger. And his reputation is far higher than that of the Dragon and Tiger Martial Artists, Tang Jia is very optimistic about his development, and is naturally willing to pave the way for him.
"Thank you, Master, I promise I won't disgrace you. Summer smiled happily.
……
After a while, Tang Jia finished toasting and returned to the box with Summer.
"Brother Liang, Sanmao, Big Eyes, Along...... I'd like to introduce you, this is my little apprentice summer. Tang Jia smiled and introduced, "Ah Tian, I've seen these seniors. ”
Summer hurriedly bowed one by one, and being able to meet these long-known big brothers in the film industry is so happy for him who loves Hong Kong films.
"Uncle Jia, you are so handsome, I think it's okay to be a kung fu star. Hong Jingbao praised with a smile. The so-called sedan chair carries people, since Tang Jia brought the summer over, he must have attached great importance to this disciple, so he naturally had to send a few good words.
"That's right, a famous teacher makes a high apprentice. Since he is Uncle Jia's beloved apprentice, presumably kung fu must not be wrong. Yuan Heping also said with a smile. He and Tang Jia went out of the same school, and they both studied under his father Yuan Xiaotian. Since Xia Jia is Tang Jia's beloved apprentice, which is also his nephew, of course, he has to look at it differently.
"My apprentice's ambition is not just to be a kung fu star," Tang Jia laughed and said proudly, "He is a novelist now, and he signed a contract with Mr. Jin Yong a few days ago." ”
"Wow!" Hearing him say this, everyone present couldn't help but be a little surprised, they didn't expect that someone in the Dragon and Tiger martial arts industry would become a writer, this is really a golden phoenix flying out of the chicken nest.
You must know that everyone here has been practicing since childhood, and their fists and feet are first-class, but they are not in the mainstream when they read and write. If you can recognize a few words and understand the script, you are already Amitabha.
Now, when they hear that Summer can write novels and get Mr. Kim Yong's approval, these people are quite uneasy. The eyes that look at the summer all have a sense of awe.
New books for collection, for recommendations!
Tang Jia couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw everyone's reaction, with a little smug on his face.
His disciples Guo Xiao and Xu Chongxin are not considered top kung fu superstars, and they can't hold up much face for themselves. But summer was different, and as soon as his identity as a writer was revealed, all these people were shaken.
"Uncle Jia, this is really blue. Hong Jingbao said with a smile, "Little brother, it's good, you can become a writer, and you can add face to our dragon and tiger martial artists, it's really good! ”
I can't wait to cooperate with Hong Jingbao in the summer, because he is famous in the Hong Kong film industry, and he doesn't have to worry about getting into trouble when he cooperates with him.
"Of course, Brother Hong. He agreed.
