On June 3, 1991, the 15th Hong Kong International Film Festival was grandly opened in Tsim Sha Tsui, and the Marina Promenade Avenue of Stars was put into use for the first time as the main venue.

On the red carpet of the opening ceremony, stars from all walks of life gathered.

The wide attention from the Asian media turned the opening ceremony of the festival into a fashion show for costume displays, especially the female stars who were invited to attend, almost did everything in their power to win over the media.

If it is a general red carpet event, it is undoubtedly the best choice to attract attention by sexy clothing, although Hong Kong people are conservative on the inside, but they are becoming more and more open on the outside. Even tertiary film actresses can become famous immediately, and it is not so difficult for actresses to dress in public to be a little revealing.

This method is widely used by those female stars who are not very famous, but reporters at the scene also noticed that the more famous the actress, the more conservative the dress on her body, either noble and elegant, or elegant and dignified, and there are many fewer who are bare-chested and bare-backed.

The more beautiful the bird, the more it knows how to cherish its feathers, and this principle also applies in the entertainment industry.

Those actresses dressed sexily and revealingly can certainly attract the shots of reporters on the scene, but they may not appear on the news page, there are so many big-name stars present at the opening ceremony today, except for those gossip tabloids, the normal media will not leave too much space for these unknown actresses, that is, live TV, and more like to focus the camera on those big-name stars.

Sexy outfits can attract a lot of attention on the scene, but it is not very good to really want to be famous for it, and it is necessary to really make headlines. The most useful way is to walk with big-name stars.

Of course. This is an opportunity that only new recruits that studios or agents want to push are eligible for. For example, Xiang Huaqiang and his wife appeared on the red carpet, with Zhang Mian by their side.

Don't look at Zhang Mian, who has become the number one "star girl" in the eyes of the media and the public, but she is famous because she acts with Zhou Xingchi, and her fame is not small, but there is still a lot of gap compared with Hong Kong's first-class actresses.

Xiang Huaqiang and his wife took Zhang Meng with them to increase her exposure in front of the media.

It was supposed to be Zhou Xingchi to do this, but because he and Zhang Meng have been photographed by the media eating or drinking afternoon tea together recently, they behave very intimately. The rumor that the two were filming was spread in the newspapers, and Xiang Huaqiang was very dissatisfied with it, but Zhou Xingchi is now Yongsheng's "cash cow", and he can turn a blind eye.

However, this incident also made Xiang Huaqiang feel that it was necessary to push Zhang Meng out alone, instead of relying on Zhou Xingchi to become famous, Zhou Xingchi helped Yongsheng start filming two dramas this year, the original heroine was set to be Zhang Meng, but the most backward Xiang Huaqiang replaced Zhang Meng in various names, which is "The King of Comedy" that is about to start filming. If this movie hadn't involved Lin Youlun's side, Zhang Meng wouldn't have been able to keep the No. 2 heroine in the film.

Seeing that Zhang Meng was not with Zhou Xingchi. The media reporters on both sides of the red carpet were a little disappointed, but when Zhou Xingchi appeared on the red carpet, they immediately became restless again.

Zhou Xingchi didn't come alone today, he also brought a female companion with him.

Judging from the dress, this little beauty who can be named by no reporter on the scene is not inferior to those famous actresses, she looks like she is eighteen or nineteen years old, but the opposite camera is not stage frightened at all, when she stands down to facilitate the reporter to shoot, her generous performance quickly won the favor of many people.

At the same time, everyone couldn't help but have a strong interest in the identity of this little beauty, and some reporters were already asking about her origin, but most of the people who were asked shook their heads.

Zhou Xingchi and Zhu Xingchi walked all the way from the red carpet, during which they would stop to simply answer some questions from reporters, but every time a reporter asked Zhu Xun's identity, Zhou Xingchi would casually take a perfunctory past.

Appearing on the red carpet with a rookie actor is already very straightforward, and if it is specially introduced to the media, then the traces of recommendation are too obvious.

A little more experienced media reporters know that Zhou Xingchi is deliberately hanging everyone's appetite, but they have to take the bait, although Zhou Xingchi is just an actor, he is the kind of actor who can earn tens of millions of dollars a year.

As long as there is news about Zhou Xingchi in the newspaper, the sales can be increased by at least one or two percent.

This trick was put forward by Lin Youlun, and he asked Zhou Xingchi to take this opportunity to officially launch Zhu Yu to the media, which can be regarded as a warm-up for the movie "The King of Comedy", otherwise it will feel a little abrupt for an actress who everyone doesn't know in a movie.

Zhu Wei has already aroused the idea of the entertainment industry when she was studying at the Hong Kong Performing Arts School, and has also filmed several advertisements, as long as the media makes a little effort, it is easy to find out her information.

Lin Youlun's arrangement is actually to introduce Zhu Yu to the public through the media.

Judging from the effect of the scene, Zhu Zhen's first public appearance in front of the Hong Kong media was very successful, and after Zhou Xingchi and Zhu Wei had already walked the red carpet, the reporters on the scene were still talking about it.

On the red carpet of today's opening ceremony, there is not only one newcomer actor Zhu Xiao, director Chen Weisheng, who directed "Heavenly Love" and was nominated for multiple Academy Awards, also brought an actress who is very unfamiliar to the media.

This person is younger than Zhu Yu, mature on the outside but his demeanor shows a youthful taste everywhere, and he looks very uncomfortable when facing the camera flash at first, and the smile on his face also looks very stiff.

This can't be blamed on Shu Qi, her situation is completely different from Zhu Qi, Zhu Qi entered the Hong Kong Performing Arts School for further study, in fact, half of her feet have stepped into the entertainment industry, and although Shu Qi has joined Ke Junxiong's performing arts company before, she has never received any importance, not to mention such a big media battle at the opening ceremony of the Hong Kong Film Festival, even she has never attended the press conference of the film, and the operation of dealing with the media is almost zero.

Chen Weisheng took Shu Qi to appear on the red carpet of the Hong Kong Film Festival, which was also arranged by Lin Youlun, and the purpose was also to officially launch Shu Qi in front of the media, so that the public could know about her before filming "This Killer Is Not Too Cold".

Chen Dusheng is actually only a newcomer in the Hong Kong film industry, if it weren't for the success of his directorial debut "Heavenly Love", he would not even be qualified to participate in today's opening ceremony, and although the movie "Heavenly Love" is very successful, in the eyes of the public and some media, Chen Dusheng's fame as a director is actually not as good as that of the newcomer actor Wu Qianlian, who was popular by this movie.

It is conceivable that Chen Dusheng will not be as attractive to the media as Zhou Xingchi and Zhu Qi when he appears, but there is no way to do it.

Of course, Lin Youlun can find a very famous male star to take Shu Qi on the red carpet, but the purpose of this red carpet show is not only to open Shu Qi's popularity, but more importantly, to pave the way for "This Killer Is Not Too Cold".

Let an irrelevant male star appear with Shu Qi, which can attract more eyeballs for Shu Qi herself, but it has no great effect on "This Killer is Not Too Cold", and the media and the public will not associate this aspect at all.

However, Jiang Wen, the actor in the film, is already a well-known male star in the mainland, but in the eyes of the media in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, he doesn't know who he is, so it is not appropriate for Jiang Wen to take Shu Qi to appear.

There is no way, the most important task can only fall on Chen Dusheng's head.

Chen Dusheng took Shu Qi all the way over, during which Shu Qi accidentally stepped on his skirt and almost tripped over, but fortunately Chen Dusheng was supported in time and did not make any big noise.

But after such an episode, Shu Qi couldn't let go in front of media reporters, and she was not used to listening to Cantonese now.

General questions Chen Dusheng will answer for Shu Qi, and occasionally there are some simple questions, he will convey the reporter's meaning to Shu Qi Zhidao, and then let Shu Qi answer it himself.

As soon as Shu Qi opened her mouth, everyone could tell from the accent that she was Taiwanese, which did not attract much attention from reporters, Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles have been closely related in recent years, and many actresses from Taiwan have developed in Hong Kong, Lin Qingxia and Wang Guxian are among the best, and the limelight of these people has even overshadowed the local actors in Hong Kong.

Regarding Shu Qi's identity, Chen Dusheng did not hide it, briefly introduced her origin to the media on the red carpet, and said that she would be the heroine of her next movie.

This point has aroused the interest of some media reporters, after all, with such a successful example as Wu Qianlian in front, no one dares to say that Chen Dusheng's next movie will not be a newcomer.

Of course, it is not very rare for a director like Chen Dusheng to become famous after making a movie in Hong Kong, so Shu Qi, as the heroine of Chen Dusheng's next film, the media reporters on the scene only paid a little attention to it and did not pay much attention to it, until Chen Dusheng answered another question, intentionally or unintentionally mentioned that the next film will be filmed by Lin Youlun, and the reporter with a keen sense of smell realized that Shu Qi's identity as the heroine may not be as simple as everyone thought before.

Although Shu Qi's performance on the red carpet today was not very good, the purpose of this appearance was finally achieved, and the reporters present knew very well what it means to be able to play the heroine in Lin Youlun's movie, this Taiwanese girl who can't even speak Cantonese is likely to become another Taiwanese actress with an eye-catching career in the Hong Kong film industry in the near future after Lin Qingxia and Wang Guxian.
