The plane slowly landed on the runway, watching the familiar tower and terminal pass by quickly outside the cabin window, Wu Yusen suddenly had a feeling of a sudden dream in his heart.

The middle-aged man sitting next to Wu Yusen was wearing a pair of very Sven glasses, and his whole temperament seemed restrained and deep, and his eyes were extraordinarily deep.

Seeing that Wu Yusen had been staring out the window in a daze, the middle-aged man couldn't help but ask:

"Director Wu hasn't been back to Hong Kong for a long time?"

Wu Yusen came back to his senses when he heard this, turned his head and said with a smile: "Yes, I haven't been back for almost two years." ”

When he left Hong Kong, Wu Yusen was determined to make a career in Hollywood, but he didn't think that his career in the United States would not improve much, but he still returned to Hong Kong after going around and around.

"I read a newspaper on the mainland saying that Hong Kong has started to build a new airport, but I don't know if the road has been built?" The middle-aged man lifted his glasses and said to himself.

"Soon, the new airport will be built in another three or four years, and then this side will be completely useless." Wu Yusen shook his head with some emotion, "Now it's time to take a look at it and take a look at it, and I don't know if the plane will land here next time I go back to Hong Kong." ”

"During the filming of "Taiping Wheel", Director Wu should have a lot of opportunities to travel back and forth to Hong Kong, so don't worry about things happening so quickly, right?"

"Yes, it's me who feels it too much." Wu Yusen smiled and nodded.

At this time, the melodious female voice on the radio began to remind the passengers to get ready to get off the plane, Wu Yusen cleaned up his mood, and then changed the topic.

"That's right. Is this the first time Mr. Chan has come to Hong Kong? ”

The middle-aged man nodded. It's just that I don't understand why Wu Yusen would suddenly ask this.

"My trip back to Hong Kong this time was not particularly confidential. The movie "Taiping Wheel" has attracted a lot of attention in Hong Kong, so you may meet some media reporters at the airport, and the reporters in Hong Kong are completely different from those in the mainland, so Mr. Chen should be mentally prepared in advance. ”

Seeing that Wu Yusen said it solemnly, the middle-aged man also paid attention to it.

Kai Tak Airport is one of the busiest airports in Asia, with nearly 10 million passengers arriving and departing each year, getting off the plane and entering the airport concourse. The first thing a middle-aged man feels is that there are too many people.

Wu Yusen was looking for the assistant director who came to pick up the airport in the crowd of people coming and going, the middle-aged man stood beside Wu Yusen, looking around with a little curiosity, and suddenly a few people with cameras appeared behind a group of passengers on the right hand, and before the middle-aged man could react, those people had already raised the camera in their hands and took pictures.

"What are you doing? How do you take pictures indiscriminately? The middle-aged man raised his hand and wanted this shot of these people, but Wu Yusen stopped him, ignored the guys who were taking pictures, and dragged the middle-aged man's hand and walked out.

"These people are journalists, and we don't have to pay attention to them." While walking. Wu Yusen explained to the middle-aged man.

"Why don't they take pictures without asking us, that's disrespectful, isn't it?" The middle-aged man said with some indignation.

"There is a category of reporters in Hong Kong called paparazzi. Specializing in the privacy of public figures for the public's pastime, the best way to meet such people is to stay away. Wu Yusen explained with a wry smile.

The middle-aged man was still puzzled, "Isn't there a law that can restrain them?" ”

"You can sue them, but firstly, such a lawsuit is very troublesome, and secondly, if you win, you will not lose much money, but you will have to pay a lot of legal fees...... Moreover, the relationship between entertainment media and artists is interdependent, but it is not excessive, and artists and media generally do not tear their faces easily. ”

Wu Yusen and the middle-aged man walked towards the door of the airport hall as they spoke, and the guys who took pictures before had already caught up at this time, and there were people in front of them who blocked the way of the two.

"Director Wu, can you talk about the movie "Taiping Wheel" specifically?"

"Director Wu, has the final cast list of "Taiping Wheel" been decided?"

A microphone and tape recorder were handed to Wu Yusen, and the two were directly surrounded by reporters.

After more than three hours of flying, Wu Yusen didn't want to deal with reporters at this time, raised his hand and said: "Okay, there is a situation about "Taiping Wheel", a special press conference will be held later, now please let me go, okay?" ”

Of course, the reporters refused to give way easily, and at this time, the assistant director in charge of picking up the airport finally discovered Wu Yusen, and he found airport security to disperse the reporters, and Wu Yusen was able to get out smoothly.

The Hong Kong media moved quickly, and in the evening the newspaper published the news of Wu Yusen's return to Hong Kong.

Interestingly, all of these news reports focused on Wu Yusen, and the middle-aged man who traveled with him was either ignored or mistaken for Wu Yusen's assistant, and in short, no one recognized his true identity.

The next day, the crew of "Taiping Wheel" officially held a press conference, and the middle-aged man who was mistaken for Wu Yusen's assistant appeared at the press conference, and the seats were arranged with Lin Qingxia, Zhong Chuhong, Chen Hong, Zhang Yurong, and Liang Chaowei.

"I believe that the three heroines of the film don't need me to introduce more, everyone is very familiar with them, and Rong Tsai and Wei Tsai are also actors who have worked with me before, and here I especially want to introduce to you Mr. Chen Daomin from the mainland!" Wu Yusen pointed to the middle-aged man sitting next to him, "Mr. Chen has starred in many movies and TV series in the mainland, and is a trustworthy actor with acting skills and literacy, and this time he will play opposite Lin Qingxia in the movie." ”

Chen Daomin got up from his seat and bowed to the audience, responding to his whispers of reporters instead of imaginary applause.

"How did you become him, didn't you say that you were going to find Jiang Wen to play this role?"

"Yes, there are no suitable actors in the mainland, so you can find Hong Kong actors to play them? I think Zhou Runfa is good. ”

"I guess there is some special background, or I was favored by Mr. Lin, in short, I can be selected to star in this movie, and my strength should not be bad."

"According to Wu Yusen's introduction, this person has acted in many TV series and movies in the mainland, and it is impossible for him not to be famous at all, but have you heard of him before?"

"It's hard to say, we don't know about the situation in the mainland, besides, maybe people like to keep a low profile?"

After Chen Daomin sat down, he tilted his head to Wu Yusen's side, and asked in a puzzled whisper: "Director Wu, is there something wrong with my performance just now?" ”

Wu Yusen secretly said in his heart that he was lucky, fortunately Chen Daomin couldn't understand Cantonese, otherwise he would not be able to save face when he heard the discussion about him in the audience.

"No, Mr. Chen did a good job, maybe everyone didn't expect Mr. Chen to play this role before, so it was a little surprising."

Chen Daomin nodded suspiciously, in fact, at the beginning, he couldn't figure out in his heart, why Wu Yusen would find himself to play this role - there are many actors who are more famous than him in the mainland, and he can't be his turn if he is senior, and he doesn't have a strong backstage relationship in the entertainment industry, if it is an official recommendation, this opportunity will definitely not fall on him.

At that time, Wu Yusen's explanation was that he had watched a TV series played by Chen Daomin and felt that Chen Daomin's acting skills were good, but Chen Daomin always felt that there was something else hidden in it, but it was not good to ask more.

The news that "Taiping Wheel" is about to start filming has attracted very wide attention in mainland China and Taiwan, after Chen Daomin agreed to play the No. 1 actor in the movie, soon the leaders of his art troupe talked to him, which probably means that he should behave well, and at the same time stick to his due position, because many leaders are paying attention to this film.

After introducing the actors, Wu Yusen gave the media a rough introduction to the filming plan of "Taiping Wheel".

"The film will be filmed in mainland China and Taiwan at the same time, Hong Kong will build a set of the same scale as the hull of the Pacific Steamer, most of the filming will be completed on it, and the scene of the sinking of the ship will be filmed in a studio in California, USA, the post-special effects synthesis is jointly cooperated by Hong Kong Aurora Special Effects and American Industrial Light and Magic, the shooting and production cycle of the whole film will take about a year and a half, and the crew will strive to make this film meet the audience in early 96."

After the relevant briefing, the press conference will enter the free question session for reporters.

The first person to get the opportunity to ask questions was still the reporter of the "Ming Pao" department, and it was the deputy editor-in-chief of "Ming Pao Weekly" who stood up to ask questions, and she aimed the question at Zhong Chuhong as soon as she came up.

"Participating in "Taiping Wheel", does it mean that Honggu will make a full comeback?"

"Actually, I never left!" Zhong Chuhong stroked her hair, picked up the microphone and replied with a smile: "I also said before that there is only one requirement for coming out to film again, that is, the script must be good, "Taiping Wheel" meets this requirement, and so many good friends come to act in this drama together, I think it is very meaningful." ”

"So you're going to make other movies in the future?" The deputy editor-in-chief of "Ming Zhou" asked again.

"As long as it's about the same as "Taiping Wheel", it will be acted." Zhong Chuhong's seemingly positive answer, but in fact implied a negative.

Because it is not easy for a movie like "Taiping Wheel" to be released in the Chinese film industry, it is difficult for a second person to be willing to spend $200 million to make a movie that is difficult to recover costs like Lin Youlun in the future.

Although there are some regrets, the reporters present also know that this is not a happy ending for Zhong Chuhong, who already has a daughter. (To be continued......)
