Chapter 156: Seeing the Sun
Kowloon City, Shaw Brothers Theatre, "The True Color of Heroes" premiere hall, the applause continued. Fastest updates
"Look at the screen, our band's name is out!"
In the audience, Ye Shirong, the drummer of the band beyond, pointed to the sliding cast on the screen and shouted to the other three members of the band.
Lead singer Huang Jiaju looked at it, and the enlarged name of the Beyond band really appeared in the credits, although it was only a few seconds, and there were not even the names of the band members, but they were very excited to join the credits of this movie that was destined to become a classic movie.
The Beyond four-member not only witnessed the birth of a classic film tonight, but also made their debut in Hong Kong, taking the most difficult step towards becoming the No. 1 band in Asia.
It wasn't until the word "end" was left on the big screen that the audience realized that the film had ended, and with reluctance to the characters in the play, the audience got up and shouted the names of Dillon and Zhou Yunfa in the play, and only the shouts of "Brother Hao" and "Brother Mack" could be heard in the broadcast hall for a while.
Wang Zheng, who was sitting in the front seat, took co-director Wu Yusen, starring Dillon, Zhou Yanfa, Zhang Guorong, Lan Jieying, director of photography Pan Hengsheng and other main creators to the bottom of the screen, facing the audience and bowing deeply to thank the audience for their support.
Although Wang Zheng has a lot of confidence in this play, he is still very shocked by the audience who are so excited in the audience, and the successive releases of "Exquisite Ancient City", "Crazy Stone", and "Happy Family" do not have such scenes, maybe only the "True Colors of Heroes", which is destined to become a classic, can make the audience cry and laugh to vent the emotions in their hearts.
Compared with Wang Zheng's inner shock, Wu Yusen couldn't help but wet his eyes with tears when facing the excited audience in the audience, and in the years when he was depressed, he thought that the Golden Harvest period might be the peak of his life, until he met Wang Zheng and started filming "The True Color of Heroes", he didn't know what the movie he wanted was, and now he saw the excited audience in the audience, which made him more determined to the direction of the film in the future.
Wu Yusen just wet his eyes, but Dillon was already in tears, once upon a time he was still the most popular martial arts star of Shaw Brothers, and successively starred in martial arts masterpieces such as "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword" and "Chu Liuxiang", as Shaw Brothers was jointly suppressed by Golden Harvest and New Arts City began to reduce the production of movies, he also became an outdated star in the mouth of the media, and once faced the dilemma of not receiving a film contract, just when he thought he would be eliminated with Shaw Brothers Pictures, Wang Zheng, the best director of Shaw Brothers, appeared, took him out of the predicament, and listened to the audience shouting excitedly "Brother Hao" , how could he not be as excited as the audience in his heart.
If it is said that Dillon's tears of excitement belong to the expression of true feelings, the choked voice of Zhou Runfa seems a bit exaggerated, but if you look at his resume in the past few years, you will understand why he choked.
With his handsome and resolute appearance and tall and straight figure, Zhou Yunfa soon ended his short old-fashioned career and began to star in wireless dramas.
In addition to the first starring "The Story of Hu Yue" brought him some word of mouth, the dozen or so movies he starred in were all dismal at the box office, and he was given the title of box office poison by the media, which made him doubt whether his positioning was correct, facing the pressure of having no drama to film, and met his beloved Chen Yu and broke up with him, which led to the suicide incident, if it wasn't for Wang Zheng inviting him to shoot "The True Color of Heroes", I don't know when he will come out of the pain, it is because of the many sourness in his heart that he can play Xiao Ma so well.
Compared with Wu Yusen, Dillon, and Zhou Yanfa's excited mood, Zhang Guorong is much calmer, as one of the leading actors of "Happy Family", he has already felt the joy of breaking the box office record, plus the album "The Wind Continues to Blow" is selling well, in addition to Wang Zheng in the crew, Zhang Guorong is undoubtedly the one with the smoothest road to star.
The shouts of the audience stopped for a while, and Wang Zheng picked up the microphone to speak first.
"Thank you, thank you for your continued support, thank you for your many helps, thank you for the wonderful performances of the actors in the play, and thank you for the hard work of all the behind-the-scenes staff!"
Wang Zheng's continuous thanks made the audience applaud, and he pressed his hand several times before he could continue: "This play is the one I have used for the longest time, and it contains the hard work and efforts of countless people. Like the protagonist in the film, even if we are down, we must find our due dignity when we are down, and the frustrated directors, out-of-fashion stars, and box office poison that the media said will make an earth-shattering cry today, and from then on, we will see the sun from now on, and it will be the moment when the hidden dragon ascends to heaven!"
Wang Zheng's last sentence was sonorous and powerful, refuting the media, but also bringing great confidence to Wu Yusen and others, and the audience in the seats shouted: "Brother Hao, Brother Mack will see the sun from now on, and the hidden dragon will ascend to heaven!"
Such an exciting and lively scene made a group of reporters mixed in the audience feel a hot pain on their faces, and they also watched this drama from beginning to end, and they all know the quality of this play, if not unexpected, this drama will be another Shaw Brothers blockbuster, and their previous report on the decline of this drama was invisibly slapped in the face by Wang Zheng.
The premiere ended with the excited speeches of Wu Yusen and Dillon, and the second screening began immediately after, the second 1,500 seats were filled, and many audiences who had not bought tickets were waiting for the next screening in the theater.
As Wang Zheng's number one fan, as soon as he got off work, Li Yuan came to the Shaw Brothers Theater near the company to queue up to buy tickets, but there were too many audiences to buy tickets, and it was not easy to buy tickets for the next show.
Just as Li Yuan was waiting in the ticket purchase hall, his colleague Ah Ming walked out of the broadcast hall with his girlfriend in his arms, and said proudly to Li Yuan in the waiting line:
"Haha, A-Yuan, fortunately I got off work early to grab the ticket, otherwise I would have to wait for two hours like you, this drama is really good, I, a big man, was moved to cry, especially the moment when Fa Ge was shot in the head......"
Before Li Yuan could answer, his colleague Ah Ming was angry and said angrily by a few old boys who were also waiting for the next show: "You servant street boy, get out of here after reading it, don't spoil here." ”
One of them, who was dyed with red hair and was obviously the ringleader, scolded Ah Ming angrily: "Mother Diolei, now I not only know that Fa Ge will die, but he was also shot in the head, his family is rich, and his brothers beat him." ”
Although the crowd in the waiting queue was very unhappy due to the spoilers, Ah Ming, who saw the spoilers, was chased by a few crazy boys, and the crowd burst into laughter, and they were very happy to see such a joke in the boring waiting time.
Li Yuan watched his colleague throw away his girlfriend and run for his life, laughing very unrighteously, and sighed at the same time in his heart, he didn't expect that Wang Zheng, who was questioned by the media two years ago, has now become a big director that many fans have chosen to wait for in order to watch his movie for the first time.
In addition to the Shaw Brothers Cinemas having fans waiting for the next show, the private cinemas rented by the Shaw Brothers also have crowds waiting for the next show, and the premiere day of "The True Color of Heroes" is destined to be written into the Hong Kong movie album.
