199 [Wang Zijun ignored by European and American directors]
On the cover of "Ming Pao Weekly" the next day, there is a photo of Wang Zijun and the three of them playing musical instruments, and on the cover is a line of big characters: rainbow band, beautiful and gorgeous rainbow colors!
The news that the trio formed a band was widely circulated a few days ago, but the parties did not come out to refute the rumors or admit it, so a large number of people felt that it might be misinformation and did not believe it.
But as soon as this issue of "Ming Pao Weekly" came out, music lovers who did not go to the concert were shocked.
Photos can't be faked!
"Ahh In front of the newsstand, there were five or six young girls dressed as students, and one of them suddenly screamed in shock, attracting the attention of many people.
"What's wrong, Alain?" Her partner asked.
"Look at this, quick!" The girl straightened the "Ming Pao Weekly" and showed the cover to her companions.
"Ah!!h Several more screams in succession.
"Really formed a band, Rainbow. Wow, that's cool, I thought it was fake news. Why didn't I go? Why, I know it's true, I have to go and see it without eating for a month! "One of the girls was in pain as if her father had died.
The rest of the girls flipped through the magazines as fast as they could, trying to see what was inside.
"Hey, I'm going to sell it again, don't break it." The boss hurriedly stopped.
"Give you money, I want this." A girl said, and the girl next to her suddenly shouted, "Look, it comes with all the lyrics and scores of the three songs." ”
"Ah, really. Boss, I'm going to have a copy too. ”
"And me, I want it too!"
The girls paid for it.
Before the girls left, a group of people soon arrived, panting and asking, "Boss, is there still this issue of Ming Pao Weekly?" ”
"Two more." The boss said.
"Give it to me, I want it all." The boy said.
"Keep one, leave one for me." The man in the back shouted.
The boss looked at the people who were pushing and shoved, and said to himself in a daze: "This idea is all strange, jumping off the building for stock speculation, buying a newspaper and fighting." ”
The people who got the magazine were amazed, and the people who knew the music score stood still and sang the three songs for the others, and a large number of people soon surrounded him, and some of the little sisters looked at him with great admiration.
And the boy who sang was just an ordinary student at the conservatory, and he had never had this kind of treatment, and his face was satisfied, and the more he sang, the more energetic he became.
"Wow, this song "youre_beautiful" is so good!" I like English songs.
"Where, how can it be compared to "Tomorrow Will Be Better". You see that the lyrics are so flavorful, and the style of music is fresh and natural, without being pretentious. And it's also inspirational, encouraging us Hong Kong people to cheer up! ”
"I think 'I Really Love You' is the best, and all Cantonese songs can't match it."
“……”
A group of music lovers began arguing about the best song on the side of the road, when someone suddenly asked, "Hey, I think the three are good." Let's take a look at who wrote the song. ”
Only then did everyone wake up to the fact that just now everyone only looked at the cover, but they went directly to pay attention to the song inside, and the author and the content of the article have not yet been read.
"yes, let's see who wrote the song!" People who didn't buy the magazine were in a hurry.
""Tomorrow Will Be Better" lyrics: Wang Zijun, "youre_beautiful" composer: Wang Zijun. The lyrics of "I Really Love You" are all written by Wang Zijun......" said the person who read the text clearly.
"Oh my God, do you want someone to live." A composition student yelled, "My big brother prince, you have finished writing all the good songs, what will we do in the future?" ”
"Wang Zijun is amazing!"
"He deserves to be a musical talent."
"yes, I didn't think he could write English songs. Look at the lyrics of this English song, it's so infatuated. A schoolgirl said adoringly.
"What's the lyrics? I'm a waitress in a restaurant, I can't read English, so please translate it for me, miss. A woman in her twenties asked.
The schoolgirl recounted the general meaning: "The lyrics are about a boy who sees a beautiful girl in the car and is immediately captivated by her, even though she already has a lover. The boy was overwhelmed by the girl's beauty, and the girl's smile made him feel like he saw an angel, and he ascended into the clouds. Even if the girl's heart belongs, the boy will not toss and turn because of this, because just to see the girl at a glance has already made him satisfied and die without regrets. And the boy's life becomes colorful because of the moment he sees the girl, and in that glance, time stops and becomes eternal......"
After the sensational translation of this female student, all the girls present let out an exclamation, and someone said: "If there is a man who loves me like this, then I will not be a woman." ”
"yes, where can I find such a man?"
"How come there are no such men? If the prince could write such a song, he must be such a person. I have decided that from today onwards, I will not marry a prince, and if he does not marry me, I will cut my hair and become a nun! A woman suddenly spoke her mind.
It's so infatuated, everyone followed the sound, but it was a fat woman with a waist circumference two or three times greater than her bust, and she was munching on ice cream while talking.
"Gross!" Someone vomited on the spot, probably thinking of something inappropriate for children.
Founded in 1968, Ming Pao Weekly was founded with a readership of mainly older middle-class people, including entertainment news, films, travel, fashion trends and cultural trends.
The above introduction comes from Baidu's, in fact, the initial rise of "Ming Pao Weekly" completely relied on curiosity, digging out a lot of celebrities, and the audience was mainly small citizens, at the beginning, five cents a copy, and now when Wang Zijun is on the cover, due to the development of Hong Kong's economy, the selling price has increased a lot.
The brand positioning of "Next Weekly" under Wang Zijun is similar to the introduction of "Ming Pao Weekly" on Baidu, but it adds elements such as current affairs, current affairs, finance, and home, which is more comprehensive. It's just that the price of "Next Magazine" is too high, and its sales are far less than that of "Ming Pao Weekly".
The current planners of Next Magazine have always wanted to cut out the current affairs and financial parts and make it a more professional entertainment magazine. However, it took more than half a year to suddenly delete the plate, which is a very bad thing, Wang Zijun resolutely disagreed, and only let them spend some time thinking about how to split the magazine and divide it into two.
After several years of development, Ming Pao Weekly's report on the entertainment industry and pop culture is almost the compass and vane of the Hong Kong entertainment industry at this time.
In the past, "Ming Pao Weekly" also asked Wang Zijun for an interview, but he rejected it because he was not available, and now it is finally the first time to appear on the cover of "Ming Zhou".
"Ming Pao Weekly" wrote: "The news that rumored a few days ago was finally confirmed, Teddy Robin, Wang Zijun, and Teresa Teng formed a rainbow band appeared at the Hong Kong convention, with Teddy Robin as the drummer, Wang Zijun as the bass, Teresa Teng as the guitarist, and each of them sang a new song made by Wang Zijun...... Wang Zijun's performance on the stage has always been freewheeling, successfully mobilizing the atmosphere of the fans present, and the song "I Really Love You" made many people cry. I heard that a rich overseas Chinese girl who flew from Manila to listen to the concert flew home the next day to massage her mother's back and wash her feet. The rich girl's mother said, I am very happy that my daughter can have a star idol like Wang Zijun, he encourages young people to be strong and morale, teaches young people to be filial to their elders, and the next time Wang Zijun has a concert, their whole family will come to cheer...... Teresa Teng's dress is very amazing, and it is the first time I have seen Teresa Teng wearing jeans on stage. The song "Tomorrow Will Be Better" she sang made Hong Kong, which was in pain, seem to see the hope of rebirth......"
After Wang Zijun read it, it is estimated that most of the stories such as rich girls are made up by the reporters themselves, but the small citizens like these like like these are willing to read, and "Ming Zhou" dares to write.
Editor-in-Chief, Sales ...... Sales rose 24 points. In the editorial office of Ming Pao Weekly, an employee ran into it quickly, and the other editors who heard his shout clapped happily along the way.
Other magazines with Wang Zijun as the cover also saw a slight increase in sales, such as the old "Sing Tao Weekly", which increased its sales by several points, but its content did not come with the lyrics of the three songs.
After Jin Yong received the news, he smiled and said to Wang Zijun, who was sitting on the sofa at his house drinking tea: "I'm touching your light, and I sold a lot of magazines this time." ”
"Haha, I'm going to charge interest." Wang Zijun said with a smile. There is a clear distinction between public and private, and he handed over the lyrics and songs of the three songs to Jin Yong, and he also took a lot of money.
"Last night, Brother Huang Zhan also called and said that there is a great figure in the Chinese music scene, who can be called a ghost. If he was born in the Tang and Song dynasties, he would have been Li Taibai and Liu San's variants. Jin Yong said, "Daddy Huang Zhan is rarely so praised. ”
"Where, where." Wang Zijun is embarrassed, if we go through the Tang and Song dynasties, we have to copy some poems, and it is estimated that we will get the title of Wang Jiuchang.
Within a few days, the media in Southeast Asian countries and Taiwan also reported on these contents, and for a while, the status of the band Rainbow in the Chinese music scene reached its peak.
It's a pity that three excellent singers can't be tied together, and their collaboration is only this once, although the rainbow is beautiful, it stays in an instant.
In order to increase the sales of "Next Weekly", Wang Zijun added a lot of interesting conversations between the three of them, and the content of the report was richer than that of "Star Weekly", which made the sales of "Next Weekly" increase a lot.
In Taiwan, there are even star-chasers who are hungry and skip food, and they have to save money to buy an expensive copy of "Next Magazine", which has aroused the disgust of many parents.
After resting in Hong Kong for two days, I caught up with Ni Kuang, Jin Yong, and Yishu, and visited famous places with Teddy Robin and Teresa Teng. The formalities entrusted to Haishan Company were also delivered, and Wang Zijun got on the plane to Cannes, France.
Cannes in May is beautiful, with the sea, the beauty and the sunshine. Wang Zijun came here, but he sighed a little embarrassed.
He has been here in his previous life, and he has accompanied the director more than once as an actor, but every time he has returned. But before she was reborn, the woman who betrayed her actually won the Best Actress, which is really funny.
Bai Muyang and the others came early, bringing Zhao Yazhi, Lin Fengjiao and others to pick up the plane.
Now the Zhang brothers are still practicing street dance in Hong Kong with the American Avery Lie, and Wang Zijun has always been followed by Li Jinghao.
The selection for the Cannes Film Festival is still ongoing, and after Wang Zijun arrived here, he actually had nothing to do. And almost all the actors and directors he met didn't know him, Wang Zijun ran up to talk to these foreign filmmakers, wanting to get familiar with the current situation of European and American films.
"Hi, hello." Wang Zijun paid tribute to an American director named Abigail.
"Hi, hello." After Abigail saw Wang Zijun's Asian face, he glanced at him a little critically, "Do you have something?" ”
Wang Zijun said: "Oh, hello, I am also a director, I like your work very much, and I hope to communicate with you." ”
"Oh, director?" Abigail was interested, "You're talking about yourself, aren't you?" Your country's director Akira Kurosawa is great, but he doesn't seem to have any work lately. ”
Wang Zijun smiled: "No, I am a Chinese director. ”
"Are there movies in China too?" Abigail exaggerated, and everyone behind him laughed.
The smile on Wang Zijun's face was still the same, and he said: "Sir, you will soon understand whether there are movies in China, I hope you can still stick to your point of view when the time comes, goodbye!" ”
"Haha, okay, that polite Chinese director, I'm looking forward to the Chinese movie you are talking about." Abigail said and laughed with the others.
A man with a Nordic face reminded: "Abigail, this year's Cannes Film Festival seems to have been shortlisted for a Chinese-language film." ”
"Looks like this, are those judges having poop in their heads? actually let the Chinese film be shortlisted, oh my God, it's simply a stain on the movie. Abigail said.
"Dude, are you racist?"
"No, it's cultural discrimination, hahaha." Abigail laughed exaggeratedly.
Wang Zijun came into contact with several filmmakers in a row, and after hearing that he was a Taiwanese director instead of a director of Yuben, most people disdained him, and a few people chatted with him with smiles on their faces, but from the content of his words and eyes, Wang Zijun felt a kind of contempt.
That's right, it's **naked contempt!
In the eyes of Westerners, how can there be any decent film art in the East? It's just a few directors who are holding on there, and they can still win some respect. Oh, by the way, there is a Bruce Lee among the Chinese, and his kung fu is very good, but what is this about film art?
Chinese Cinematic Art? "Little Tadpole Looking for Mother" is good, and it won an award in Cannes a few years ago, haha, an animated film.
Except for cartoons and Bruce Lee, Chinese films have nothing to do in the world film industry at this time.
Since no one wants to dump him, Wang Zijun doesn't go to the hot face and cold ass, so he just takes the people in the team to play on the beach together, and he is here for a vacation.
The rest of the team also knew what happened to Wang Zijun, and they were all indignant, feeling that they had been insulted.
Several actors and photographers rolled up their sleeves and were about to beat people, Ke Shouliang rushed to the front, and Wang Zijun hurriedly pulled it: "What are you doing with those ignorant guys?" Didn't they hit us in the face with a movie? Then let's just use the movie to hit back. Let's go to the beach and have some fun, maybe you can have a romantic exotic relationship. ”
Under the persuasion of Wang Zijun, these guys finally stopped, and soon they were very longing for the beach they were going to go, and heard that there were foreign women who showed their big breasts on the beach.
Tall palm trees sway their leaves in the breeze, and ships come and go along the azure coastline. Chen Kunhou and Ke Shouliang were the first to get out of the car, and the two of them stared blankly ahead, blocking the door of the car and not moving.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Wang Zijun kicked Ke Shouliang's buttocks.
"Boss, good ...... There are a lot of beautiful women......" Ke Shouliang pointed to the beach in the distance.
The others also came down, and the men all sighed: "It is worthy of romantic France, and the women here are all beautiful women." ”
Zhao Yazhi and Lin Fengjiao had dark faces.
Wang Zijun explained with a smile: "These beauties may be young actors from all over France, or even all over Europe and the United States. Because during the festival, many producers and directors come here to play, and these women hope to take the opportunity to be seen and become an instant hit. As for you not seeing ugly girls, the reason is very simple, so many beautiful women are concentrated on the beach, even if there are ugly ones, they are probably leaving. ”
"I see," Ke Shouliang suddenly asked, "Boss, aren't you also coming to Cannes for the first time?" How do you know so clearly? ”
Wang Zijun patted the top of his head and said: "Watch more news, read more, don't go drag racing whenever you have time, you won't be killed!" ”
Ke Shouliang said with a smile: "I'd rather drag race and fall to death than suffocate while reading." ”
"Hahaha." The crowd laughed and rushed to the beach.
Ke Shouliang shouted: "Beauty, the pretty boy is here, come and greet him!" ”
It was also Ke Shouliang who knew that these people did not understand Chinese, so he dared to shout so loudly, and sure enough, those beauties only regarded him as a tourist to Cannes Beach for the first time.
Countless foreign beauties were present, and the three measurements were terrifying and attractive, but Lin Fengjiao and Zhao Yazhi were a little twisted. They are all under the age of twenty, and their bodies are naturally not as attractive as mature women, coupled with the difference in body size between Eastern and Western female surnames, which makes them feel a little inferior.
"What's wrong? Such a nice sun and beach bathing, how about having fun without changing clothes? Wang Zijun saw that the men were all playing separately, and only the two of them stood still, so he couldn't help asking.
Zhao Yazhi said: "Forget it, bask in the sun like this." ”
Wang Zijun saw that she was insincere, and teased: "You don't dare to wear a swimsuit, right?" Don't worry, there are so many beauties here, no one eats your tofu, besides, I didn't wear a swimsuit last time in Macau. ”
"Why doesn't anyone eat my tofu? Are you saying I'm ugly? Zhao Yazhi saw so many foreign beauties at first glance, and her proud appearance was completely defeated, and she was already a little awkward, and Wang Zijun's words made her even more unhappy.
"Such a big reaction?" Wang Zijun felt that he was scolded inexplicably.
Lin Fengjiao said: "Ah Zhi, let's change into swimsuits and go to the sea to play, it's rare to come to France." ”
"Humph!" Zhao Yazhi angrily walked away with Lin Fengjiao.
"Hey, I'm going to rent two swimming rings over there, don't walk around, just meet here." Wang Zijun shouted towards the backs of the two women.
"Got it, badass." Zhao Yazhi turned around and waved at Wang Zijun, and then she didn't know what was going on, and snickered in a low voice with Lin Fengjiao.
"The woman's surname is really inexplicable." Wang Zijun complained, ran to get two swimming rings and came back, but saw Lin and Zhao wearing yellow and green swimsuits, standing there with an embarrassed face. And many foreign women pointed at the two and whispered, laughing from time to time.
Indeed, those foreign beauties come from all over Europe and the United States, and they are very satisfied with their figures, so they dare to come here to wait for the director and producer of Rabbit Fishing.
However, Lin Fengjiao and Zhao Yazhi are wearing one-piece swimsuits because of the conservative surnames of oriental women in this era, and their chests are far less majestic than them, so they immediately look different.
Wang Zijun saw the dilemma of the two, and simply walked over to the middle of them, put one hand around the waist of one person, and asked, "Do you know the difference between the physical development of women in the East and the West?" ”
Zhao Yazhi thought he was laughing at himself, reached out and pinched his waist, and said in a low voice: "I hate it to death." ”
"Hey, slow down, listen to me before you do it." Wang Zijun hurriedly begged for mercy.
"You dare to say that I will ignore you in the future." Zhao Yazhi said angrily.
Lin Fengjiao's body trembled when Wang Zijun hugged her waist, her heart was beating faster at this time, her face was hot, and she didn't care about anything else.
Wang Zijun said: "Do you know? Western women develop early, generally at the age of fifteen, and their bodies look very good. However, after the age of twenty-seven or eighteen, most Western women begin to gain weight, their pores become thicker, and they become embarrassed fat women. Oriental women, on the other hand, develop later and become more feminine as they grow older. Compared with them, you are completely short of each other and the strength of the other, and the one who laughs and laughs is the real winner. ”
"What you said is true?" Zhao Yazhi asked suspiciously, and Lin Fengjiao also turned her head to look at Wang Zijun.
"Of course it's true." Wang Zijun complimented, "In my eyes, you two are more beautiful than all the women here, and they are not worthy of carrying your shoes as maids." ”
"Hehe, count your mouth sweet." Zhao Yazhi listened to the compliments, and her mood improved.
Lin Fengjiao felt as sweet as honey in her heart, and couldn't help but stick it next to Wang Zijun.
The two women picked up a lifebuoy, and Wang Zijun hugged them left and right and walked towards the sea.
