Chapter Seventy-One: All Dumbfounded
…
Originally, Xu Cun planned to wait for "Taking the Wrong Car" to be released here in Taiwan before returning to Xiangjiang.
However, Cai Songlin and Wang Yingxiang are both built, and it is better for "The Wrong Car" to be promoted for a period of time before it is released.
Xu Cun is a person who is especially good as a stream! Therefore, he transferred Shi Nansheng, who was good at publicity, to Taiwan to be responsible for the promotion of "The Wrong Car", while he himself returned to Xiangjiang in advance to preside over the overall situation.
After a whole night with Lin Qingxia, Xu Cun, Zhang Guozhong, Lin Zhengying, and Lin Zhiling were sent on the plane back to Xiangjiang by Yu Kanping, Luo Dawei, Wu Chu, Peng Guohua, and Chen Dali.
……
After four months of preparation, "Royal Sister" finally has the conditions to start.
Cui Baozhu's trip to Japan was very fruitful, in addition to bringing back Michiko Nishikyo and Hiroyuki Sanada, she also brought 20 million yen (equivalent to 65 Hong Kong dollars) and 10 Mitsubishi Motors from Mitsubishi Motors as sponsors. In addition, Cui Baozhu received 5 million yen (equivalent to more than 170,000 Hong Kong dollars) from Fuji Camera as a sponsor.
Shi Nansheng's sponsorship of the factory in Hong Kong has also been negotiated - she has already contacted the Kowloon West Police Headquarters, Hong Kong Cathay Pacific Airways, Lee Garden Restaurant and other units, which will provide the venue for Xu Cun to shoot for free, and Xu Cun will show their signs in "Royal Senior Sister", or the actors will verbally mention the names of these units.
plus Lin Zhiling, who Xu Cun brought back from Taiwan.
"Royal Senior Sister" is already ready for everything, and only Xu Cun is owed this east wind.
Back in Xiangjiang, Xu Cun first dealt with the accumulated matters, and immediately announced the establishment of the "Royal Senior Sister" crew.

"Royal Sister" is DreamWorks' biggest production of the year. So, in addition to the administrative staff and operational staff, DreamWorks is almost out of the nest.
Moreover, not only that-in order to create a word-of-mouth movie, Xu Cun also poached Huang Yuedai, the first photographer in Xiangjiang, from wireless.
Although Zhong Zhiwen is one of the four major photographers in Xiangjiang, he is the bottom one, and Huang Yuedai is the real first.
Huang Yuedai famously said, "The best photography is no style." He believes that the first thing the photographer should think about is how to enrich the text on the script with the picture, so that the audience can feel the mood and fate of the characters in the film as soon as they see the picture. As a result, he used many unconventional techniques in his films, such as lighting the lights according to the condition, mood, and mentality of the characters in the film, as well as a large number of zoom lenses and strong color metaphors, and was recognized by his peers as the craziest user of sports lenses. His multi-directional simultaneous photography skills are outstanding, and when filming "Casting Names", not only did he use eight cameras for the big scenes of thousands of people, but also three or four cameras were activated at the same time for literary dramas, which made Chen Kexin "flattered".
Xu Cun has too many films to make, and the styles are very different, so a photographer like Huang Yuedai is very suitable for him.
As for Zhong Zhiwen, Xu Cunzhun, who likes the new and never gets tired of the old, asked him to be his royal photographer with Huang Yuedai.
In addition to Huang Yuedai, Xu Cun also found someone from wireless, and this person was Chen Huimin.
Chen Huimin has practiced Tan family boxing and Western boxing since he was a child, joined 14K at the age of sixteen, applied for the police at the age of seventeen, and was transferred to be a prison guard because he was not yet eighteen years old.
A few years later, the police discovered Chen's gang identity, and he expelled him.
Since then, Chen Huimin has been working as a full-time gangster.
Relying on his good skills, Chen Huimin was beaten into a 14K double-flower red stick, and Kimberley Road in Tsim Sha Tsui was directly called "Chen Huimin Street" by the people on the road.
Seven years ago, Chen Huimin represented Hong Kong in the Southeast Asian boxing tournament and defeated the Muay Thai champion to win the championship, so he was taken by the director of Shaw Brothers and asked him to make a movie.
At first, Chen Huimin was not interested in making movies, but later the Independent Commission Against Corruption was established, and 14K was severely cracked down.
Although 14K has begun to decline, it is still one of the three major gangs, and Chen Huimin has a good relationship with Xin Yi'an.
Xu Cun invited Chen Huimin - on the one hand, because Chen Huimin himself is a good actor and has a good reputation. On the other hand, Xu Cun was ready to let him come forward to coordinate and solve any troubles related to the Dao.
……
On the third day after returning to Xiangjiang from Taiwan, Xu Cun took the crew of "Royal Master" to worship God.
In order to facilitate publicity, the launch of "Royal Master" was very high-profile - Xu Cun not only sent invitations to friends in the circle, but also asked Shi Nansheng's two assistants to greet major media.
On the day "Royal Senior Sister" was launched, there were fifty or sixty reporters alone.
Under the auspices of Lin Zhengying, Xu Cun led all the staff of "Royal Master" to worship God on a remote and high-end road.
After worshipping God, Xu Cun turned on directly.
Today, Xu Cun is preparing to film the scene where Sanada's wife and daughter were blown up.
Of course, Xu Cun only showed reporters Sanada Hiroyuki and the bombed car, and nothing else was revealed.
A brand new Mitsubishi car (only the shell is new, and it is full of old parts from the Raptors stunt team playing with scrap cars) drives up to the side of the road.
Xu Cuntong guò translator repeatedly gave Sanada Hiroyuki a lecture and asked him to pass as much as possible - Xu Cun's explanation was very detailed, and he was really afraid of Sanada Hiroyuki. If it is really NG, in order to publicize the effect, Xu Cun has to get another real new car to go up and have another one.
The reason why this scene was filmed directly was mainly to promote the cost of "Royal Senior Sister". Therefore, whether it is a bombing car or Hiroyuki Sanada, it is a gimmick.
To be honest, Hiroyuki Sanada's fame is really average now, and it can currently play the icing on the cake for "Royal Senior Sister".
But it doesn't matter - the "Warring States Self-Defense Force" he made before coming to Xiangjiang is about to be released, and it is a blockbuster film that has slashed the box office of 2.3 billion yen.
At that time, Hiroyuki Sanada will definitely become a household name in Japan, and "Royal Senior Sister" will be able to land in Japan in one fell swoop with the east wind of "Sengoku Self-Defense Force".
After Xu Cun finished speaking, Luo Lixian explained the precautions to Sanada Hiroyuki through the guò translator to ensure safety.
Hiroyuki Sanada has never filmed such an explosion scene, so he is a little apprehensive. However, he deserves to be a man who can become a famous Japanese movie star - and he quickly adjusted his condition. Then, after Zeng Zhiwei took a picture of the clapperboard, he shouted "no" in Japanese and ran to the car with an anxious face.
Hiroyuki Sanada's acting skills are very good, and the performance is very vivid!
Luo Lixian found the right time and detonated the bomb in the car with a calm face.
"Boom!"
A huge flame ignited in the car and then spilled out of the windows and underneath the car.
Hiroshi Sanada, who was closest to him, subconsciously raised his arm in front of his face, and then leaned down to dodge.
Dozens of reporters who have never seen such a movie are dumbfounded!
When they reacted, they immediately pressed the shutter wildly and took a group of photos that Xu Cun wanted them to take.
After the filming of the car bombing scene, Xu Cun filmed the car chase scene with Zhong Zhiwen and Ke Shouliang.
This time, dozens of reporters were shocked by the scene of more than a dozen cars rushing and colliding, and then took many photos that Xu Cun wanted them to take.
