Chapter 249: Let's go to the premiere
With the vigorous development of Xiangjiang films, major associations have set up their own film companies in light of the huge profits brought by the box office of the movie, and the 14K club is headed by Huang Langwei, who is responsible for the investment and production of the entire film company.
One day in 91, with a group of horses in Kowloon Tong called Take one karaoke pastime, just met Mei Yanfang who was partying with friends, Huang Langwei in order to show his face in front of the horses, took out a million check and asked Mei Yanfang to sing on the spot, but she refused, and then there was a dispute in the words, and finally Mei Yanfang was slapped and left with her face.
It was a simple conflict, but Huang Langwei paid the price with his life.
Soon after Mei Yanfang left, Huang Langwei, who walked out of the karaoke after recreation, was ambushed with a knife, his arm was severely injured, and he was sent to the Baptist Hospital for medical treatment by passers-by. In the early morning of the next day, two gunmen disguised as visiting the sick shot at close range, and Huang Langwei died on the spot.
Knowing Huang Langwei's true identity, Wang Zheng immediately remembered the slapping incident that shocked the Xiangjiang entertainment circle in later generations, and saw that Huang Baiming looked confused and didn't know what he meant, and said with a light smile: "Whether Boss Huang believes it or not, I hope that after Brother Ling passes this lesson, he can change his arrogant temperament, don't look at Xiangjiang only has a slap in the face, but there are many people you and I can't afford to offend, let alone him, a 14K little hall master." ”
Huang Baiming smiled awkwardly, nodded and said, "What Director Wang said is very true, I will definitely give him a stern warning after I go back." ”
As long as Wang Zheng no longer pursues it, Huang Baiming can be regarded as achieving the purpose of this trip, and seeing that the matter is over, he hurriedly gets up and leaves.
Among the three giants of Xinyi City, Wang Zheng admires Huang Baiming the most, and he also intends to cooperate with him in films, seeing that he looks like he is afraid that he will be found in Shaw Brothers Cinemas, he can only wait until he has the opportunity to talk about it in the future, and then personally send him out of the studio, and this interview is over.
After more than a month of filming and a month of post-production, "Mr. Zombie" finally ushered in its premiere on May 14, although there were no big stars to join in this drama, but Wang Zheng's title as producer and screenwriter alone was enough to attract many audiences.
So far, all films directed or written by Wang Zheng have never disappointed the audience, and the reputation of each drama is not only good, but also has achieved good box office results, and slowly he has become a symbol of good movies and high box office.
There are two main reasons for choosing to release it on May 14, one is that this day is the memorial day for Weng Meiling's later generations, Wang Zheng specially invited her to the premiere site, and it is reassuring to have Da Fei accompany her throughout the whole process. In order to let the old man stay for a longer period of time, Wang Zheng just took this opportunity to invite Wang Sanshui's family to come to Kowloon City to watch the premiere together.
There is no cinema as large as Shaw Brothers in Yuen Long District, and the Wang Sanshui family's family entertainment program, in addition to watching wireless dramas around the TV after dinner, occasionally goes to the video hall to watch a videotape movie, and it is the first time to watch the premiere movie in the cinema, and they are full of curiosity about the Shaw Brothers Cinema and the many audiences waiting to enter.
Seeing such a scene, Wang Zheng felt a burst of guilt and self-blame in his heart, as early as when "Exquisite Ancient City" was released, he should have taken Wang Sanshui's family to see the premiere, but he waited until the seventh movie was released before taking action.
In this regard, Wang Zheng didn't want to find many excuses to cover up his negligence such as worrying about the box office and busy work, in order to make up for this negligence, he said to Wang Sanshui, who was supporting Mr. Wang: "Third uncle, the Xiangjiang media say that I am a big director and screenwriter, but I have waited until now to remember to bring my family to watch the movie I wrote, which is really worthy of the help that the third uncle helped me back then!"
Wang Sanshui smiled and waved his hand and said: "Don't talk about two families, Xiao Zheng, you are a person who does great things, as long as you have our family in your heart, your grandfather and I will be very pleased!"
The more Wang Sanshui didn't care, the more Wang Zheng felt guilty, he always thought that the movie was just his own business, and the third uncle's family just needed to run the tea restaurant well, but now that I think about it, it is too one-sided, no matter how successful he is in the movie, if there are no relatives by his side to witness, there will be no achievements at all. For this reason, Wang Zheng secretly decided in his heart that no matter whether Wang Sanshui cares about it or not, future movie premieres will be held under the witness of his family, because they are his only relatives in this time and space.
In addition to Wang Sanshui's family of three and Mr. Wang, Wang Liang also brought his fiancée to the Shaw Brothers Theater, which was an ordinary girl with a delicate appearance, who was a little restrained when she first saw Wang Zheng, and then slowly became familiar with him under the affectionate title of his sister-in-law.
arranged the family in the theater box, accompanied by Guan Zhilin, and Wang Zheng appeared on the red carpet of the premiere, and with his appearance, the red carpet show of the premiere of "Mr. Zombie" officially began to be staged.
In the 80s, the Xiangjiang film industry did not have the concept of a red carpet show, if a new film was released, the filmmaker would put it on a large-scale release in theaters after testing the water at midnight, and Wang Zheng's appearance completely broke this convention, because several films he directed were all unprecedented successes, Shaw Brothers couldn't wait for more people to know that he had a new film released, how could he sneak into the midnight show to test the waters, especially the "A Plan Sequel" co-produced with Golden Harvest, the premieres were all Western Hollywood, and major film companies and film companies witnessed the " The success of "Plan A Sequel" followed suit, and slowly, the movie premiere became common in the Xiangjiang film circle, but the scale was different.
Like the red carpet show of "Plan A Sequel", the red carpet focus is all focused on the actresses, the difference is that this red carpet show does not have a master of ceremonies.
After Wang Zheng, Zeng Zhiwei, Lin Zhengying and other male stars walked the red carpet in a low-key and fast manner, the next thing is the appearance time of the actresses in the play.
Due to the relationship between "Ghost Queen" Wang Xiaofeng and "Overlord Flower" Li Saifeng or newcomers to the movie, the appearance of the two failed to ignite the cheers of the audience.
It is said that smart women know how to use their own advantages, Ye Zimei is undoubtedly such a smart woman, she is wearing a bandeau skirt on the red carpet, her snow-white thighs are bright and shining, and the grandeur of her chest is about to come out, such a sexy dress not only attracted the attention of the audience, but even the filipe in the reporter's camera was consumed on the 36-inch breasts.
The male audience, who was affected by such a visual impact, broke out into high-pitched cheers, and even Weng Meiling and Wang Guxian, who appeared as guests on the red carpet later, suddenly became uneasy.
The creature of a man is so magical, even if he likes a quirky beauty like Weng Meiling, or a pure beauty like Wang Jixian, he still has no resistance to a sexy stunner like Ye Zimei.
At the end of the red carpet, the audience entered in turn, Wang Zheng's task was over, and he handed over the home field to Zeng Zhiwei, the director of the play, and he ran to the box very leisurely, and accompanied Wang Sanshui and Mr. Wang to enjoy the film together.
