Chapter 237: Mutual Displeasure

Zha Liangjian's expression was also a little strange, recalling yesterday's situation, and explained hesitantly: "When I told that Boss Yang yesterday, the other party didn't agree, but he proposed another plan. ”

"What plan?" Zha Liangyong still looked confused.

He thought...... Ahem, he wanted me to ask you. Zha Liangjian frowned deeply, and said with a strange expression: "Ask you, some are interested in hosting a newspaper." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Time dragged back to a day ago, Yang Qiu followed Zha Liangjian to finish speaking, and the two really got up and said goodbye.

It wasn't until after getting in the car that Xia Meng, who had been silent all the way just now, couldn't help but ask directly: "That Zha Liangyong, isn't he the editor of "Ta Kung Pao", you still have literary talents, why did you refuse directly?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Yang Qiu didn't make a sound for a while, but just glanced at Xia Meng with a strange expression.

"Can you say that we refuse to check Liangyong, it's all because of you......

In later generations, Zha Liangyong and Xia Meng had an interesting anecdote about King Xiang's intention to be a goddess and unintentional, but it was lively for more than half a century, and Chinese martial arts fans were even more well-known in the streets, and Xia Meng's wild history as the prototype of the 'Little Dragon Girl' was also spread with a nose and eyes.

Yang Qiu first knew about Xia Meng, or because of Zha Liangyong's unrequited love!

When Yang Qiu knew about this in later generations, he still looked at it from the perspective of a third party, and the miss of this talented and beautiful woman half a century ago naturally made him feel a little sorry in his heart.

Little did he know at the time that he would be caught up in it.

Only now when he himself has become a party in the story, Yang Qiu thinks in his heart - go to the special talented and beautiful woman!

What did Xia Meng's not-so-famous husband think in his heart in the later generations, Yang Qiu didn't know, but now Xia Meng was his woman, although he knew that Xia Meng's temperament would not do anything out of the ordinary, but he was involved with another man, and let people all over the world discuss it for half a century.

When Yang Qiu thought about it, he felt very unhappy.

Naturally, let Zha Liangyong enter Jiahe as a screenwriter, he will never agree.

But......

Since Zha Liangjian recommended it like this, Yang Qiu was not easy to refuse.

I randomly found a reason to run a newspaper and went out.

Xia Meng was confused by Yang Qiu, and glanced down at the cheongsam on his body, but he didn't find anything wrong, so he glanced at Yang Qiu curiously.

"Ahemβ€”β€”!

Yang Qiu clenched his right hand into his fist and put it to his mouth and faked a cough, and after thinking about it for a while, he slowly explained: "I rejected him, mainly because I am not familiar with him, I heard that he is from "Ta Kung Pao", thinking that if the political flavor is too strong, it is not good, it is better to put it aside and observe it before making a decision." ”

"As for running a newspaper...... Yang Qiu paused, thought for a while and said with a smile: "The Great Wall has a copy of the Great Wall Pictorial, and we Jiahe don't run one, wouldn't it be a pity, besides, it is also very convenient to run a newspaper now, and it is just a gesture for Jiahe." ”

At this time, it is indeed convenient to run a newspaper, as long as you pay a registration deposit of 10,000 Hong Kong dollars to the Hong Kong government, you can apply for the creation of a newspaper.

Then, find one or two typesetters and two or three editors, and then invite or copy a few press releases and anecdotes, which can basically fill two large pages, and even complete the day's news.

As for printing, there are also specialized printing companies available to work with.

At the beginning of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the printing of Ta Kung Pao in Xiangjiang was outsourced to other companies, but it was only in the past two years that Ta Kung Pao's finances were better, so it rented the basement of Liyuan East Street and bought a few printing presses to print the newspaper by itself.

Because the newspaper is easy to run and has small profits but quick turnover, it led to the rampant tabloids in Xiangjiang at this time.

The most jaw-dropping thing is that there are many unregistered underground tabloids, but the sales have been very good.

The reason is that at this time, many dilapidated literati who went south had no other skills and relied on the pen to eat, so they wrote a lot of good writing balls, and made a lot of money by relying on the salty and wet guys.

Of course, this is a digression.

"Then ......" Xia Meng frowned slightly, and said suspiciously: "Then if you create a newspaper, will this Zha Liangyong come?"

Yang Qiu raised his eyebrows, thought about it and said with some hesitation: "It should be...... Possible...... Yes, after all, this is also an editor-in-chief. ”

……

"Editor-in-chief?" Zha Liangyong asked in amazement.

Zha Liangjian nodded and responded, "Boss Yang did say that you will be given a position as editor-in-chief." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Looking at his cousin's thoughtful look, Zha Liangjian probed his head and asked carefully, "Second brother, what do you think?"

Zha Liangyong quickly shook his head and replied in a muffled voice, "Don't go." ”

"Huh?"

"Ah what, I've done a good job at Ta Kung Pao, what did I do in the past. Zha Liangyong opened the script casually, handed it to Zha Liangjian, and urged: "Hmph, I don't like to be a screenwriter, so I want to write it well, hurry up, you can help me see how the script is written." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Yang Qiu didn't know that his 'generous behavior' had been ignored lightly.

It wasn't until more than ten days later that he accidentally remembered this incident, but since Zha Liangyong didn't come to the door, he put the matter of running the newspaper behind him.

As he said earlier, running a newspaper is very simple now.

At this time, it is still the movie that matters.

At the end of July, when the later stage of "A Baby" was about to be completed, Neon's "Rashomon" finally landed in the theater of Xiangjiang after being re-dubbed in Chinese, and Yang Qiu took his girlfriends to watch the premiere of this movie.

Kurosawa's directing ability really amazed Yang Qiu.

Especially the change of light and shadow when the woodcutter is traveling in the mountains and forests at the beginning, Yang Qiu is immersed in the picture, others are concerned about the plot, but he studies the language of the camera.

Although, he has seen the film several times in the dubbing room.

However, to Yang Qiu's surprise, the movie "Rashomon" received countless praises as soon as it landed in the Xiangjiang Theater, and the newspapers also praised it.

But in reality, the box office was not ideal.

Movies have always been a popular art, and the box office is also supported by the general public, no matter how good you call it, it is also a neon movie.

It's only been a few years since the Anti-Japanese War? It's good if I didn't smash the theater for you.

Therefore, except for the box office of this movie in the first few days, the box office plummeted for the rest of the time, and it was directly painted after more than nine days of release, with a total box office of less than 140,000 Hong Kong dollars.

As a result, it caused an embarrassing situation of "Rashomon" that is popular but not popular.

This also made Yang Qiu a little worried about the box office of "A Baby".

It's just that before he could put his mind down, there was a sudden news in the film industry in Xiangjiang, which made a group of filmmakers a little stunned.

This news comes from Taiping, one of the four major cinema chains of Cantonese films.
