Chapter 112: Invitation

Hong Kong, Golden Harvest Film Company Headquarters.

Many of Hong Kong's tycoon-level tycoons are accustomed to decorating their offices in a grand manner, and Chow Wenhuai is no exception.

When it comes to Golden Harvest, most mainlanders know it, but when it comes to promoting the name Zou Wenhuai, people who are not careful basically don't notice it.

In the 50s, Zou Wenhuai joined the Shaw Brothers Film Company, and soon became Shao Yifu's right-hand man, but due to the Shaw Brothers Company's dissatisfaction with the high-pressure and low-salary policy adopted by its artists, in the early 70s, Zou Wenhuai left and founded another Golden Harvest Company.

The turning point in Golden Harvest's film journey came from the joining of Bruce Lee, which also promoted the beginning and development of the independent producer system in Hong Kong films. At that time, the four-dimensional company led by Luo Wei went to the United States to find Zheng Peipei, who was married and retired, to make a comeback in the film industry, but Zheng Peipei had no intention of making a comeback.

So, Siwei Company inadvertently found Bruce Lee, after Bruce Lee returned to Hong Kong from the United States and wanted to cooperate with Shaw Brothers, but because of the proposed salary of 10,000 yuan, the filming time must not exceed 60 days, and the script must be agreed by Bruce Lee himself, and Shao Yifu did not agree, Shao Yifu's negligence made Bruce Lee angry, Zou Wenhuai seized this golden opportunity, took the initiative to send someone to the United States to invite Bruce Lee, and signed a contract with Bruce Lee for 7,500 US dollars. In order to protect Bruce Lee from being poached, Zou Wenhuai did not hesitate to personally protect him, and even followed Bruce Lee to the toilet, and gradually pushed Golden Harvest Company to the international market. In 1973, Bruce Lee died suddenly, which had a great impact on Golden Harvest Company.

In 1980, Golden Harvest successfully poached Cheng Long from Luo Wei with a huge check, and in 1985, with the support of Golden Harvest, he established "Weihe Film Production Co., Ltd." and started his business as "Police Story". Although 'Weihe' is inferior to 'Baohe' in terms of output and type, it can be called the satellite company with the highest investment cost of Golden Harvest, such as "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother", "Miracle", "Flying Eagle Project" and other big productions, but with Cheng Long's box office appeal in Hong Kong, Japan and Southeast Asia, Golden Harvest is not only profitable, but also has a dividend with Cheng Long that surpasses other satellite companies.

In addition, "Police Story" and "Rouge Buckle" produced by 'Wei He' also won the 'Best Film' at the Hong Kong Film Awards twice. To a large extent, it also reflects Golden Harvest's 'satellite system's grasp of the balance between business and art. In fact, the flexibility of cooperation between Golden Harvest and its satellite company lies in the fact that it is not always based on the terms of the contract, but emphasizes sincerity and mutual trust.

By the 80s, Golden Harvest's momentum had surpassed that of Shaw Brothers. In 1985, Shaw officially ceased production, and the focus shifted to television. The battle between Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest is actually obvious, and Zou Wenhuai has eventually become a generation of film tycoons, shining like the sky!!

At this moment, in the boss's chair in the office of Chairman Golden Harvest. Zou Wenhuai was biting a cigar and looking at several newspapers in front of him, revealing a thoughtful look.

Hong Kong is a small place, but the entertainment industry is very complex and huge. Some people refer to Hong Kong as the Hollywood of the East...... This is also a bit apt, with the contribution made by the Hong Kong film industry, it does deserve this title - but it is also tightly in the East.

Whether it is history, talent, film culture or technology, Hong Kong and Hollywood are not comparable at all.

Not to mention anything else, the production cost of a Hollywood movie can be produced in Hong Kong...... Not to mention anything else, Hong Kong actors are very dedicated. It's also very hard, often when one field is finished, the next one is rushed, and it is normal to shoot a film in one or two months. Before the 80s, most of Hong Kong's films were shot in studios, and then they gradually went to the mainland and other places to shoot on location, and the development of cinema reached a new level.

Of course, that's why. The competition in the industry is also getting more and more fierce. Although Golden Harvest is now the boss of the film industry, if you don't pay attention to it, companies such as Yongsheng and Xinyicheng will rush up and drown it out.

"It's amazing! Little age ......"

Zou Wenhuai lightly clicked on the photo on the Ming Pao Entertainment supplement. Whisper to yourself.

As an old-timer in this industry, he is not going to make do with it, but he does attach great importance to Wei Ting, and like others, Zou Wenhuai also values Wei Ting's screenwriting ability and the American market. In fact, Golden Harvest has also been committed to exploring the European and American markets. But so far, no one else has been able to do it except for Bruce Lee's relatively successful entry into the American market...... Oh, Cheng Long is also trying to do this, but the effect is not ideal, if ......

Boom! Boom! Boom!

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Zou Wenhuai frowned slightly, and his tone was a little impatient.

The door opened, Cheng Long walked in, without waiting for Zou Wenhuai to speak, he came to Zou Wenhuai's table, took out a cigar from the cigar box on the table, lit it for himself, and then came to the sofa and sat down, "Brother Huai, I went a step late today, and that Butterfly has already returned to the mainland." ”

"Gone?"

Zou Wenhuai didn't expect such an answer, and was a little depressed.

"However, the person from the Butterfly Studio is still in Hong Kong, and I heard that many things in the studio are decided by the woman named Bai Xue, maybe we can talk to her directly." Jackie Chan suggested.

"Well, that's not a bad idea." Zou Wenhuai thought for a moment and nodded slightly.

……

Film studios.

Xu Ke received a female guest early in the morning, and several female employees in the studio looked in the direction of the office with twinkling eyes, as if their boss was meeting her lover privately.

"Are you Miss Snow White?" Xu Ke thought for a while before he reacted.

"Yes, Mr. Xu."

Bai Xue nodded, took out a song sheet and a cassette tape and put it on the table, "This is the song that Butterfly wrote for "Smiling Proud Jianghu", because the conditions are simple, Butterfly just recorded it with the tape recorder in the hotel last night, you listen to the effect first." ”

Did it really happen?

Xu Ke was a little surprised, he didn't expect Wei Ting to come up with a song so quickly, so after being surprised, he was quite skeptical...... Isn't it an errand?

What kind of songs can be written in one night?

Xu Ke naturally couldn't imagine the strength of Wen Shugong.

"The sea laughs and surging the tide on both sides of the strait, the ups and downs follow the waves to remember the present day, the sky laughs at the tide in the world, who loses and who wins God knows, the rivers and mountains laugh and the smoke and rain are far away, the waves sweep away the red dust and the world knows how much, and the breeze laughs and makes it lonely. There is still a night photo left of pride, the smile is no longer lonely, and the pride is still smiling and smiling......"

It was certainly impossible to find a band in the hotel, and it was even less likely that there would be time for rehearsals. Wei Ting used guitar accompaniment, and although the quality of the tape was not very good, it was enough to perform the song in its entirety.

"Good! That's great! That's how it feels! ”

Xu Ke listened to it three times in a row, and said unsatisfied...... When he looked up, he saw Bai Xue looking at him with a smile. Xu Ke blinked, remembered yesterday's gambling contract, and said with a smile: "I am willing to lose the bet, and we can talk about our cooperation in detail." ”

……

The wheel of time is rolling forward, it will not stop because of anything, and the experience of rebirth like Wei Ting may be just a bug in the wheel of time, an event that cannot be predicted or replicated.

Although Wei Ting rushed back to school, she was still reprimanded by the head teacher Tong Shan. If it hadn't been for the afternoon bell that interrupted her play, maybe the head teacher would have continued.

"Here you go." Wei Ting, who had just sat back on the seat and breathed a sigh of relief, saw an extra stack of notebooks in front of her. One hand holds them in the palm of your hand.

"What?" She subconsciously asked, turning her head to look at Yue Chenguang.

"Class Notes."

Yue Chenguang's eyes always had a warmth in them, "I know you can catch up, but it will be faster if you have notes." ”

"Thank you." Wei Ting immediately replied with a smile.

"No thanks...... In fact, there is something I want to trouble you. Yue Chenguang said Ai Aidi.

"What's the matter?" Wei Ting asked.

"My aunt wants to meet you." Yue Chenguang's eyes wandered, and he wanted to see her expression, which looked very strange.

Meet the parents?

Such a word suddenly appeared in Wei Ting's mind, and her face suddenly became hot, she coughed dryly, and asked in a low voice, "Why did your aunt see me?" ”

"It's about your songs...... Those are the two songs you sing at the campfire. Yue Chenguang finished speaking quickly, and immediately sat upright - the teacher came in.

Song?

Wei Ting didn't expect anything to happen for a while. I had to promise to come down first. Because my mother is now in the United States, and my father is busy with restaurants, she was going to go to the Red House Restaurant for dinner and then go home. Change your plans now, it's nothing.

Originally, Wei Ting planned to ask during recess, but was caught by Liu Qingyun and Gan Tian and forced to ask her where she had been in the past few days...... Although it is generally not allowed to skip classes, there are not so many scruples among high school classmates, and the teacher is not there. There is a big beauty who is sent to her to catch her eye, and no one is.

However, after Wei Ting took out the gifts she brought back to the two, all the problems disappeared...... The latest electronic watch from Hong Kong is inexpensive and practical, and the two girls fell in love with it at first sight.

"Wei Ting, is there a person-looking for?"

The deliberately elongated voice obviously had a bit of a joke component, Wei Ting turned her head suspiciously, only to see Ling Yun standing at the door listening to Ling Yun with an anxious face.

"We'll talk about that later."

Wei Ting hurriedly got up and walked over, and Gan Tian crossed her like a gust of wind, "I have to go back, work hard!" ”

You're big!

Wei Ting glared at Gan Tian's back fiercely and walked to the door, "Lingyun, are you looking for me?" ”

"yes, why didn't you come to class in the morning?" Ling Yun himself didn't know how to ask this sentence.

"I came back late from my visit...... No, Lingyun, does this have anything to do with you? ”

Wei Ting responded casually, and suddenly reacted that something was wrong, and the look on her face was suddenly a little unhappy.

Is this Ling Yun too emotional, he didn't even ask the teacher, why did he ask in such a tone.

"I'm sorry, Wei Ting, I don't mean anything else...... Ling Yun also realized that his question was inappropriate, which had caused the other party's unhappiness, and hurriedly wanted to make up for it.

"Nothing, you just want to know this?" Wei Ting has put away her displeasure, this little thing is really nothing, she seems to be too sensitive.

"Ah, that's the case, I'm on my birthday this Sunday, if you have time, welcome along." Ling Yun was happy to get rid of the embarrassment just now, and hurriedly said what he meant.

Wouldn't it?

Although the two families will not be in contact with each other, in Wei Ting's memory, there has never been such an interaction between the two families.

She gathered her thoughts and asked, "Well, does your mother know/"

Ling Yun nodded, "Well, my parents know it, and they really want to see you, after all, we are all old neighbors......"

Old neighbors?

Mom and Xiao Lu are still old classmates!

Although Wei Ting didn't know why the two sides didn't get along with each other later, it was definitely not her mother's fault - this is something that you don't need to judge to know!

But the other party doesn't mind, if he is angry, he is stingy.

So Wei Ting nodded: "Okay, I will definitely arrive." ”

"Let's go together after school." Ling Yun suddenly plucked up his courage and said.

"No, we have different routes, so there's no need for that." Wei Ting was startled, and she didn't know why such a strange idea suddenly popped up in this person's mind, if they really went together every night, then what was their relationship? What do others think of themselves?

"Okay." Ling Yun left very resentfully, and Wei Ting was still a little depressed when she sat in her seat.

"Hey, isn't that Lingyun? Is he trying to chase you? Liu Qingyun leaned close to Wei Ting's ear and teased.

"Looking for a beating?" Wei Ting was so angry that she shook her fist, Liu Qingyun smiled and ran away, Wei Ting turned her face, but saw Yue Chenguang looking at her curiously, and suddenly ...... She hated that gossip woman to death.

Although Liu Qingyun only muttered something in her ear, Wei Ting still underestimated the speed of the spread of gossip news...... In middle school, every student has some rebellious psychology and curiosity to a greater or lesser extent, and the more things are forbidden by parents and teachers, the more attention is paid to them. Ling Yun is also a celebrity in No. 1 Middle School, it is said that he has a good guitar skills, and he is also a little handsome, and there are quite a few girls chasing him.

On this day, he stood at the door of the fifth class of the first year of high school, and said something to Wei Ting with a shy face, although no one heard the specific content, it did not prevent them from making up their brains, especially those who had that good thing and went to Lingyun and their class to investigate...... So before school ended, someone began to spread the 'romance' of Wei Ting and Ling Yun.

"Boring!"

When Gan Tian came over to report the big news to Wei Ting, Wei Ting could only say these two words...... There is no way, the rumors stop at the wise, and if everyone is mentally retarded, there is nothing she can do. (To be continued.) )
