Chapter 093 Something Happened

As for Kwan Dexing, he is a veteran performing artist famous for filming the "Wong Fei Hung" series, and from 1949 to 1994, he shot a total of 77 "Wong Fei Hung" series of films in his lifetime. In the early days, Mr. Guan was a famous actor and a patriotic man, who contributed money and efforts during the Anti-Japanese War, and it was clear that the party authorities had awarded him a "patriotic artist" pennant as a commendation.

According to the information Gu Weiqi saw on the Internet, Mr. Guan once said to his friends who visited him when he was seriously ill: "I have been a person and a person all my life, but I have a clear conscience, and I will do my best if I should do what I should do." I asked myself that the most meaningful thing in my life was to resist Japan and save the country, as a descendant of Yan and Huang, I would never see the destruction of my country. Life is colorful, and it is worth asking yourself in this life. ”

For such an old man, Gu Weiqi still admires him very much.

Guan Yuan is the father of Guan Zhilin, and he is also a relatively famous actor in Xiangjiang, and has won the title of "actor".

As for Fang Yuping, he is even more amazing, the "Father-Son Love" that won the Best Director at the 1982 Xiangjiang Film Awards was created by this person, and then he filmed works such as "Half of the People" and "The Heart of the Country" that reflect the real life experiences of ordinary people.

Therefore, after Zhou Liang Shuyi introduced a few people, Gu Weiqi politely invited a few people to sit down, and then ordered someone to serve a pot of good tea, and then said slowly: "With the help of Old Man Guan, Director Hu and others, I believe that we will definitely be able to hold this Xiangjiang Film 'Platinum Award' successfully." Mr. Guan and Director Li are both veterans of our Xiangjiang film industry, I don't know if you have any good thoughts about this award hosted by Phoenix TV? ”

Old man Guan is thin, but although he is not young, his spirit is quite good, I saw him take a sip of tea, and said unhurriedly: "First of all, I think that this 'platinum award' that Mr. Gu decided to hold is a great thing for our Xiangjiang film industry." ”

Gu Weiqi hurriedly smiled and said, "It's good for the old man to call me Qizai." ”

Old Man Guan smiled, and then said: "There is a general situation about the award you are going to hold in Qizai, Ms. Zhou Liang has already told us. However, it is not a simple matter to hold this award well, I personally think that if you want to hold this award as the most influential film award in the Chinese entertainment industry, first of all, you should not mix factors such as Zhengzhi or personal preferences. ”

Gu Weiqi nodded and said solemnly: "This is natural, we hold this award purely about movies, nothing else." ”

"Secondly, it is necessary to be fair, just and open; Another is to solicit the opinions of people from all walks of life. After all, one person counts short, and everyone counts long. It doesn't hurt to listen to others, and maybe some people's ideas will be more beneficial to the award. ”

Hu Jinquan echoed: "That's right, after all, we are also holding this first platinum award event, and it is very necessary to brainstorm." In addition, the specific details of the entry and the setting of the award and how to select it need to be carefully discussed. ”

"I'll just share my personal thoughts on eligibility."

Gu Weiqi thought about the qualifications for the Academy Awards in later generations, and said slowly: "First of all, it must be a film shot by Chinese; secondly, it must be open to the public, and there must be no less than five screenings within three days; Third, the length of the film must be more than 60 minutes; the fourth was shown on 35mm film; The last point is that it was released that year and ran for election the following year. What do you think? ”

After thinking about it carefully, everyone felt that Gu Weiqi's idea was quite good, and after discussing it, they decided to temporarily formulate the qualification system for this award in accordance with the requirements he said. Later, after soliciting social opinions, and having good ideas, supplementing or deleting them, this article is considered to have passed.

Chen Baisheng asked: "What about the award setting?" ”

"Best Actor and Actress, Best Picture, Best Director and Best Screenplay are definitely indispensable."

Gu Weiqi changed his words and said: "However, since we are holding this award for the first time, it is not appropriate to make it too complicated. Personally, I would recommend adding five more categories: Best Cinematography, Action Direction, Editing, Newcomer, and Soundtrack, which add up to the top 10 awards. The others will be added year by year, what do you think? ”

Zhou Liang Shuyi nodded and said: "The top ten awards are okay, after all, we don't have much experience, and everything has to be explored slowly." It's just that this judge ......"

"The judges can invite more insiders and media reporters to form a jury. You just have to look at the specifics. Now let's talk about the design of the trophy. Everyone knows that the 'Phoenix' is the auspicious bird in our Chinese myths and legends, so I plan to use the phoenix as a blueprint to build it in platinum. I don't know if you have any opinions on this? ”

Guan Yuan nodded and said: "The phoenix is known as the 'immortal bird' in our Chinese myths and legends, and it has always been regarded as a symbol of auspiciousness. It's just that Qizai, are you really going to build it with platinum? ”

"Yes, uncle. Do you think it's wrong? ”

"I just think it smells of copper, and it will inevitably make this award taste different in the future."

Huang Zhan said disapprerovingly: "Not really, I think it's good." Driven by interests, more filmmakers will be fully engaged in this industry, so as to produce more and better films. ”

"That's right, that's what I meant in the first place. What does Mr. Guan think? ”

"I also think it's good, as the saying goes, the hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit. It is a matter of their own interests, and everyone will naturally rivet their efforts to make movies with their hearts. ”

Then Hu Jinquan, Su Qi, and even Fang Yuping, who had never spoken, all expressed their opinions.

At noon, Gu Weiqi invited everyone to have a meal and then discussed, and discussed it all day, and finally roughly determined several important matters of the "Platinum Award". One of them is, of course, the eligibility to run for election; The second is to create trophies; the third selection of films; Fourth, organize the jury. Finally, there is a wide range of public opinions.

These news will be jointly announced by "Phoenix TV", "China Entertainment Times" and "Film Fortnightly". The specific matters are naturally to worry about by Zhou Liang Shuyi and Mr. Guan, the temporary preparatory committee, so naturally there is no need for Gu Weiqi to say more. However, he allocated 10 million funds to Zhou Liang Shuyi. After all, it costs a lot of money just to build the Platinum Trophy, not to mention all the other expenses.

After a busy day, Gu Weiqi saw that it was already dusk, and he was about to go to Phoenix TV to pick up Guan Zhilin and have dinner together. But as soon as he walked out of the office, the big brother in the backpack suddenly sounded, so he opened the backpack and took out the big brother to connect.

"Hey, Mr. Gu, something happened to Amei, come quickly!"

Gu Weiqi's heart sank, he never expected that Anita Mui would have an accident, the call was from Chen Huixian, her voice was still crying, and her head "buzzed" and crashed, fortunately, the tenacity of his mind was far beyond ordinary people, especially knowing that he needed to be calm at this time, so he forced himself to calm down, took a deep breath and comforted: "Ah Xian, don't panic, tell me where the accident is?" ”

"Lan Kwai Fong, 'Hongwang Bar', Mr. Gu, don't come alone, there are a lot of them."

"Got it, wait, I'll be right there."

After Gu Weiqi hung up the phone, he dialed Tang Bo's phone while walking out with a gloomy face, and as soon as the phone was connected, he immediately asked, "Where is the guy?" ”

On the other end of the phone, Tang Bo didn't answer his words, but asked rhetorically, "What?" Something? ”

"My company's artist Anita Mui had an accident at Lan Kwai Fong's Hongwang Bar. Where are you? Can you rush over and help me see what's going on? It may take more than half an hour for me to arrive. ”

"Coincidentally, I'm here in Lan Kwai Fong. Don't worry, I'll call the brothers right away. ”

"Okay, we'll see you in half an hour." Gu Weiqi said that, he opened the car door, quickly drilled into it, and after starting, he disappeared in the dust.

At the same time, in a private room of Lan Kwai Fong's "Hongwang Bar", under the orange light, I saw a young man with a meaty face tearing a girl's clothes with a cruel smile. Her hands and feet were tied with ropes, and she lay sideways on the couch against the wall, unable to move. The mouth was also sealed with duct tape, and he couldn't even cry out for help.

The young man tore at her clothes and scolded and said, "Stinky bitch, I don't know how to lift, Lao Tzu let you join our 'Hongwangtang' because I can afford you." You Tema dare to refuse, see if Lao Tzu doesn't play with you today! ”

That girl was Mei Yanfang, and at this moment she couldn't speak, so she could only stare at the young man angrily with her eyes. But her heart was full of humiliation, how nice it would be if Archie was here now, she thought with grief in her heart. It's a pity that the reality is cruel, and Gu Weiqi didn't appear. However, the door of the private room that had been killed from the inside was suddenly kicked open.

Followed by young men and women more than ten meters away rushed into the private room, and it was Tang Bo who took the lead. The young man who was tearing the girl's clothes was obviously stunned for a moment, and came back to his senses and was about to ask, "What are you doing?" It's a pity that Tang Bo didn't give him a chance to speak at all, so he went over and grabbed him and threw him against the wall.

Bang! The young man slammed into the wall, then fell to the ground again, and with a roll of his eyes, he fainted.

"Carry this brute out first, and let him go when the boss comes."

Tang Bo instructed, "Everyone else should go out too, Alice, you stay and take care of Miss Mei." Miss Mei, don't worry, we are all friends of your boss Gu Weiqi, and he called us to save you. Now he is already on his way, and he believes that he will arrive soon. As he spoke, he led the people out and closed the door.

Anita Mui secretly rejoiced that Gu Weiqi sent someone in time to come.

It is a coincidence that Tang Bo was able to arrive in time to rescue Anita Mui. The reason why he came to Lan Kwai Fong today is to investigate the situation of the community in Lan Kwai Fong and actively prepare for the expansion of the territory of the "Hung Ying Society". Recently, although Gu Weiqi has never asked about the situation of "Hong Yingshe". However, in fact, the power of the "Hong Ying Society" has expanded rapidly.

I have to say that Zhang Chaozhong is simply a good material for a natural mixed club. Since Tang Bo supported him as the boss of the "Hongying Society", after this person collected the younger brother of the original "Hongxing Society", he formulated a series of rules and regulations with clear rewards and punishments, quickly digested the mess and resources left by the original "Hongxing Society", and consolidated the sphere of influence of the "Hongying Society" in one fell swoop.

With the help of Tang Bo's elite soldiers of the "Dragon King Mercenary Group", with iron-blooded means and lightning speed, they annexed the branch of the "Digital Alliance" in Sham Shui Po, the "Wo Xing Society" and the "New Righteous Society" branch in Yau Tsim Wang. At present, "Hung Ying She" monopolizes three areas and sites in Sham Shui Po, Mong Kok and Yau Tsim Mong. The number of its brothers has also increased from 800 to more than 3,000 now, which can be said to have expanded quite rapidly.

Because of this, the "Hung Ying Society" has now extended its tentacles of expansion to Central on Hong Kong Island. However, because the "Hong Ying Society" expanded too quickly, it also aroused the vigilance of other associations. Moreover, Hong Kong Island is not as good as Mong Kok, and the situation is very complicated, so Tang Bo will personally bring people to Lan Kwai Fong in Central to secretly collect intelligence. didn't expect to receive a call from Gu Weiqi as soon as he arrived here.
