Later generations counted it as the song that held the top spot in the charts for the most consecutive weeks throughout the 1980s.

At the same time, the MV filmed by Fang Jianhui for the song began to play on MTV, and Teresa Teng danced and sang on the screen in tights, full of vitality. Thanks to the promotion of MTV and similar music channels, the Grammys will create a new Video of the Year (MV of the Year) award starting from the 24th in '82.

Tonight it was the turn of the second wife, Lin Qingxia, and during the meal, Lin Qingxia made a request to Fang Jianhui.

"Jianhui, how about our Angel Pictures opening a branch on Taiwan Island?"

"Why?" Filming locally on Taiwan Island, affected by the current martial law atmosphere, the subject matter will be greatly restricted. There is also Angel Distribution has found a long-term partner of Taiwanese filmmaker Wang Jixiang, and Fox also has a distribution network on Taiwan. With the opening of this branch, filming is restricted and distribution is already in place, so it seems that there is no need.

"Ah!?" Lin Qingxia was actually asked, she just thought that there was a branch in her hometown on Taiwan Island, which would help her sign someone, and she really didn't think about the meaning of doing so from Fang Jianhui's point of view. Fortunately, she reacted quickly: "You can make a film, you can... You can also send scouts out to dig up some new people for the company on Taiwan Island. ”

"Dig up new people, well, that's a good idea!" Fang Jianhui nodded in agreement and said, "Then let's go." By the way, since you came up with this idea, do you have a suitable candidate for the general manager of this branch?"

"Yes, yes, yes. Fang Jianhui's words hit Lin Qingxia's heart, and she said busily: "I think Zhang Aijia is okay." She is a good friend of mine, she acts well, sings well, and is very talented. If she hadn't gotten married, I'd have introduced her to you. Hee-hee!"

"You say she's her. "Fang Jianhui doesn't care, it doesn't cost much to open a branch office on Taiwan Island, so she should spend some money to buy a beautiful woman to be happy, naturally she can say whatever she wants. "Is the company called Angel Pictures Taidao Branch?"

"No!" Deng Lijun, who had been listening to the side with a smile all the time, suddenly interjected: "It's not called a branch, we have come up with a name, do you think it's okay?

"Cough, cough, cough. Fang Jianhui almost choked on a mouthful of food.

"Don't react so much, this name, I thought about it with Lijun for a long time. Lin Qingxia patted him on the back, helped him breathe a sigh of relief, and said: "What about this company, I and Lijun will invest some money and occupy some shares, we are all your 'sisters', isn't it 'Fang Jianhui's sisters' company', referred to as 'Fang's sisters' film company." ”

"It's good, but isn't this name too high-profile?" Fang Jianhui made a final resistance.

"Don't think we're messing around, we've all asked Shirley, and she's okay. Teresa Teng said.

"Ah!?" Fang Jianhui was really surprised now, Shirley is his public relations director, and he has worked hard for his image, he will never joke about this, she said okay, then it must be no problem.

Shirley said that the name of the Fang sisters was good. Isn't there a Warner Bros. in Hollywood, and there is also a Shaw brothers in Xiangjiang, let's have a Fang sister, who is afraid of whom!" Teresa Teng learned Shirley's tone: "Not only in Taiwan Island there is the Fang Sisters Film Company, but in the future, there will also be one in France and the United States, in short, where there are Jianhui's sisters, there will be Fang's sister companies!"

"Well, listen to you. Shirley said this, there must be a reason for him, Fang Jianhui still chose to believe the professionals. "How much are you going to invest?"

"I'll invest $5 million!" Teng Lijun raised her hand first.

However, among his women, aside from the money Fang Jianhui gave them, it is indeed Teresa Teng who is the richest. Before she met Fang Jianhui, she was already a little rich woman, after following Fang Jianhui, the two best-selling albums "Guilty" and "Physical" came out, and the sales volume has now reached more than 5 million copies, according to Fang Jianhui's share of her, she can get more than 6 million US dollars for the record alone, not to mention the money she earns from holding concert tours.

"Why did you use so much, $1 million is enough. Fang Jianhui said: "And the 1 million has to be released by the two of you together, and if you finish one of them, won't it become your sole proprietorship." ”

"In this case, then I'll pay 300,000. Teresa Teng grinned.

"Qingxia will pay 600,000, you will pay 400,000, so it's decided. Fang Jianhui said, and said to Lin Qingxia: "Qingxia, do you have money, if you don't, I'll lend it to you." ”

"I don't need you to borrow it, I have it. "Lin Qingxia is ambitious.

$600,000 is not much, but in fact it is not much, which is equivalent to NT$18 million, which makes Lin Qingxia's savings empty.

Can't let Sister Qingxia's investment go down the drain, Fang Jianhui thought, so when he was in the office the next day, he decisively bought the movie script from the system again.

"Ding!Obtained the movie script "The Wrong Car", artistic value: 88, box office value: 84. ”

The artistic value of 88 is a score that will be nominated for many Golden Horse Awards; because Taiwan is deeply influenced by American culture, the annual box office champion has been occupied by foreign films for a long time, and the box office of 84 is also very good, indicating that it is possible to be in the top five at the box office.

I skimmed through the script, which tells the story of a bribe. In Taiwan, buying glass bottles, Hokkien dialect is called 'wine is dry and sold nothing', which is the slogan of some people who buy glass bottles on the street.

This is a complete tragedy, from the beginning to the end, the dead man collapsed the house, not even a dog was spared, the dog was seriously injured by the car, and then killed by his own owner.

However, the biggest highlight of this film is actually the soundtrack and original songs, the heroine in the film is a singer, and she needs to sing many original songs in the film.

On October 6, Fang Jianhui received a loyal female fan in the office.

Tang Shuxuan of "Film Fortnightly" came to visit him, her intention was to create a film award in Xiangjiang, and she came to find Fang Jianhui to make a relationship.

"Ms. Tang, hello, it's a good luck!"

"Hello Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang is more handsome in real life than in the movie!" Tang Shuxuan didn't see outside, and joked as soon as they met.

"False praise, I have read a lot of Ms. Tang's articles, she is really talented! However, some articles about me are really too famous, I dare not take it seriously!"

"When it starts, Mr. Fang completely deserves it. Tang Shuxuan said: "I still hate myself for my poor writing and shallow ability, and I can't express Mr. Fang's talent." ”

After the two praised each other for a few words, Fang Jianhui said: "Your weekly idea is very good, I completely agree with it." As for the funding, no matter how much it is, I can fund it, but I only have one request: that is, the award ceremony will be broadcast exclusively by Lishi in the future. Of course, you can sign a 10-year live broadcast contract in advance. ”

Tang Shuxuan is very satisfied, not only the funding has been secured, but also the live broadcast contract of the TV station, which is of great significance for expanding the influence of the new Xiangjiang Film Awards.

When she was about to leave, Fang Jianhui smiled and added: "Also, you must insist on fairness and justice in your awards, and you must not favor me because I gave sponsorship!"
