Chapter 111." The queen of songs" Ye Qianwen
At noon, Hong Kong TVB.
Chen Xuanting was planning the next play with Zhang Daming, when there was a knock on the door.
Chen Xuanting said to Zhang Daming: "You avoid it first, a friend is here." ”
"Friend, who?" Zhang Daming said with a small glare. "Men and women? **It's a woman, look at you, how much [***], it's not long since you were promoted, let's get this plane now! ”
"What nonsense, hurry up and get out!" Chen Xuanting kicked his ass and balls.
Zhang Daming opened the door with a smile, Zhang Jiahui was outside, saw him and said, "I'm looking for Director Chen Xuanting!" Oh no, it's the executive producer! ”
"Hehe, whether it's the director or the producer, you go in, he's waiting for you!" Zhang Daming smiled and left.
Zhang Jiahui was puzzled, and said in his heart, can this Chen producer be able to pinch it? !
walked into Chen Xuanting's office, but saw Chen Xuanting smoking leisurely, leaning on the boss's chair and looking at him.
Zhang Jiahui felt a sense of nervousness for no reason, and stammered a little: "I'm here." ”
"Well, do you still want to interview me?"
"Yes."
"Why? As I said, I won't be interviewed by you for a good reason. Chen Xuanting looked at him with a smile.
Zhang Jiahui tried to stabilize his emotions and said: "The reason is very simple, I want to be on top!" ”
Chen Xuanting smiled, "It's not that you want to be on top, many people want to, but the question is, why should I help you?!" ”
Zhang Jiahui swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "Because I want to follow you!" ”
"I'm going to follow you!" The four words are categorical and without hesitation.
Chen Xuanting smiled and looked at Zhang Jiahui, it was like seeing a fish caught in the net, and it was the best abalone!
"Very well, I will say, you have a good reason for this!" Chen Xuanting said with a smile.
Zhang Jiahui breathed a sigh of relief, he understood that since those four words, he had already been on the other party's boat.
Seeing that Zhang Jiahui was still a little nervous, Chen Xuanting knew that he was going to throw the bait, so he pulled out a cigarette and said, "Come on?" ”
Zhang Jiahui did not refuse and took it.
Chen Xuanting smiled, it seems that this Zhang Jiahui's surname is still very straightforward, if he changes to someone else, he will definitely decline politely, after all, his identity is different.
"I can help you get on the throne, and I can guarantee that I will hold you on the throne of the Hong Kong Film Awards within three years, but the question is do you believe me?"
Zhang Jiahui sighed in his heart after hearing this, "Academy Award actor? "It's something he can't think of.
"You don't believe me?" Chen Xuanting looked at him with a meaningful gaze.
Zhang Jiahui suddenly felt that Chen Xuanting's eyes were full of confidence, as if it was easy to promote himself as an actor, and he had to believe it.
"I believe in you!"
"I can't help it...... But that's okay, the most interesting thing in life is to make the impossible possible and watch it happen. Chen Xuanting gently spat out a smoke ring.
"No, I really believe you!"
"Okay, now I'm going to tell you to stop being a reporter and go behind the scenes, are you willing?"
"Ah, what?" Zhang Jiahui was taken aback. He also thought that Chen Xuanting would promote himself, who knew that it would be like this.
"Look at your surprised look," Chen Xuanting smiled, "Don't worry, I'm going to open a play called "Golden Branch Desire", I hope you can do something behind the scenes, and besides, if you want, I want to give you a role!" ”
"Give it to me...... Role? Zhang Jiahui knew that he was cultivating himself.
"Yes, the role of a squire!" Chen Xuanting smiled and said no more, because he knew that Zhang Jiahui would not refuse his proposal no matter what.
In this way, no one could have imagined that the future Hong Kong actor Zhang Jiahui would become one of Chen Xuanting's most loyal followers so easily.
In the office, looking at the back of Zhang Jiahui leaving, Chen Xuanting, who was leaning on the boss's chair, couldn't help but feel comfortable.
You must know that Zhang Jiahui can be regarded as a wonderful flower in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, and he is said to be strange because he has worked hard for more than 20 years to become famous. But this is the same person, in more than 80 sets of movies and TV series, whether it is a tough guy, a good man, a corner or a humorous role, it is Zhang Jiahui's forte.
When Cheung Ka-fai played the role of a madman in the 1994 TV movie "Serious Crime Record", he showed his acting talent to the audience. Subsequently, Zhang Jiahui's film and television fields developed at the same time, and many well-known dramas and movies were filmed. starring in the dramas "Heaven and Earth Pride", "Wonderful Hands and Benevolence", and "Four Talents in Gold" made Zhang Jiahui's popularity soar, but at this time, he gave up the TV series and changed to make movies, and always played a supporting role, especially with Andy Lau, who shot many popular movies, such as "Gambler 1999", "Prince Dark Horse", "The Battle of the Top of the Forbidden City" and so on.
It wasn't until Zhang Jiahui met To Qifeng that he was unearthed with his unique police temperament.
And Zhang Jiahui thinks that the best director in terms of character portrayal is also To Qifeng, "When filming "Underworld", he sat on the set every day, smoking a big cigar, looking at us, shooting when he thought of it, and calling it a day if he couldn't think of it. Because there was no script, we didn't know what was going on, and we didn't dare to ask him, so if we didn't understand, we tried to satisfy him. "Ren Dahua once said that Johnny To has a ability to bring outdated actors back to life. Zhang Jiahui also agrees with this sentence, "He will infinitely magnify your most prominent surname, exert your energy and elevate it to a high level." ”
However, it cannot be denied that Zhang Jiahui has also made a lot of bad movies. He also admitted this frankly: "I admit that I have made a lot of bad movies, but I have not made bad roles, I am always worthy of myself." ”
This is Zhang Jiahui, this is the former king of bad movies, the king of green leaves, to the future Hong Kong actor.
Chen Xuanting believes that as long as he is under his own creation, one day, he can polish him into a peerless divine soldier!
At this time, Chen Xuanting can be described as a double happiness, the producer officially took office, and Zhang Jiahui was accepted under his command, and he was in a particularly comfortable mood.
Just when he was happy, he suddenly received a call from Li Jiaxin, saying that the karaoke she ran with her friends was about to open, and hoped that Chen Xuanting could come over to celebrate with her in the evening.
Chen Xuanting didn't ask Li Jiaxin who Li Jiaxin's friend was on the phone, and said with a full mouth: "Don't worry, I will be there on time!" ”
…………………… At about seven o'clock in the evening of the same day, Chen Xuanting took a car to the "Blue Danube" karaoke dance hall run by Li Jiaxin and his friends.
I saw that the ground at the gate was covered with firecrackers, and there were red banners at the door, which was very festive compared to the time of opening.
In fact, in the early 90s, many Hong Kong celebrities liked to get involved in shopping malls to make a fuss, like Wan Ziliang opened a clothing company, Alan Tam opened a restaurant, similar to the mainland's "going to the sea", all kinds of go.
This time, the song and dance hall opened by Li Jiaxin was also opened with her singer friend. Due to the strong popularity of Li Jiaxin and her singer friend, there was a flood of guests as soon as it opened, and it can be said that the momentum is like a rainbow.
In the private room on the second floor of the song and dance hall, the beautiful lace light gauze curtains were rolled up, Chen Xuanting looked at the crowd downstairs through the glass window, and said with a smile: "If these people come to consume, then your boss Li Jiaxin will be famous!" ”
The private room is very beautifully decorated, the pale yellow wallpaper, elegant and vulgar, there is a half circle of dark yellow sofas around the glass coffee table, Li Jiaxin, who is smiling and smiling, reclining on the sofa, the skirt of the black tight skirt is slightly folded, revealing the round knees and curvy calves in black stockings, thinking of Li Jiaxin's fiery figure under the black suit, and her charming ** taste, Chen Xuanting's mouth is a little dry, and he hurriedly turned his eyes away, since that night, Chen Xuanting has not touched her again, just pulling her hand, Li Jiaxin also dodged away like a fire, which made Chen Xuanting extremely depressed.
Observing a red shadow busy at the door of the dance hall, Chen Xuanting asked, "Li Jiaxin, is your friend reliable?" It's not that I doubt your abilities, but what are you doing if you give her everything? ”
Li Jiaxin smiled: "It's the same as you, as the boss behind the scenes." Don't worry, Sally is a big singer, she debuted early, has a wide range of friends, and can bring a lot of business, and she has a very good heart, which is absolutely reliable. Besides, I'm not used to socializing, filming and advertising make me tired to death, and I can't do this! ”
Chen Xuanting smiled, knowing that Li Jiaxin's surname was indeed not suitable for business, and it was estimated that this time he invested in karaoke for the sake of the singer's face. She is such a person, she doesn't know how to reject others, especially good friends.
"By the way, I haven't asked much yet, who is that Sally sister of yours, do I recognize it?" Chen Xuanting asked.
"Of course you know, she's so famous!"
"I know? No way. Chen Xuanting thought about it, there don't seem to be any female singers in Hong Kong with such a foreign name.
"Don't guess, she's Ye Qianwen!"
"Ah, it's her?!" Chen Xuanting was stunned.
It turned out that Ye Qianwen's English name was "Sally Ye", and friends in the industry called her "Sally". Ye Qianwen debuted very early, and from the beginning, she was a singer in the Hong Kong music scene. It is said that Yip Qianwen belongs to the "ABC", does not speak Cantonese and does not understand Chinese, she joined the Hong Kong music scene in the mid-eighties and is considered a "ghost girl". With the help of "ghost guy" Lin Zixiang, Ye Qianwen magically succeeded. In her early days, she sang lyrics by memorizing phonetic symbols, including her smash hit masterpiece "Blessing", which is also a wonderful flower in the music world.
Chen Xuanting remembered that there was a ghost movie called "Reiki Compelling", starring her, Chow Yun-fat, and Huang Baiming. Think about it, Chow Yun-fat was already a popular fried chicken in the film industry at that time, and Huang Baiming was one of the three giants of the New Art City.
Congratulations to everyone on a Happy New Year!
