When Lu Yan woke up again, he found that he was actually in a strange room. But what surprised him the most was the structure and design of the room, which actually belonged to the style of the 80s and 90s in Hong Kong films.

Lu Yan sat at his desk in surprise and looked around, but what really attracted him was the books on the radio, television/film courses on the desk, as well as biographies of many related majors.

"Won't it?" Lu Yan was a little surprised to see that there was a poster of Leslie Cheung posted behind the door. Leslie Cheung on the poster is shy, but a little sunny and simple. But there is already a bit of aggression in his eyes, and there is still a bit of uninhibitedness.

Obviously, this is the older brother in the early days.

"Didn't you cross by yourself?" Lu Yan sat motionless in his chair like a puppet, and muttered in a voice that he could hear.

Just when Lu Yan was at a loss, there was a sudden sound of 'Dong! Boom! 'There was a knock at the door.

At such a moment, there was a knock on the door, which naturally scared Lu Yan into not moving.

The one outside knocked for a while, and sighed lightly as if he had some understanding: "Ah Yan, I know you will feel uncomfortable this time." But since you have chosen this path, you should get used to its rules. When he came to Hong Kong, he was no longer Taiwan's Lu Shao!! You've been in this business for a long time, don't you know the rules here? ”

Speaking of this, the voice outside suddenly paused and continued: "It's also true, you are stubborn when you are small. I know that such a rule is always trying to break it. But directing this kind of thing is not enough just by talent! Qualifications are also required!? Even if your brother Xu agrees, can the three of you agree that a hairy guy in his twenties will be in charge? The whole of Hong Kong, and even the world, have never seen such a small director!

What's more, with what you've learned in the past two years, you think it's enough? You also watched the new art city come step by step, can't you still figure out the director's way? ”

Hearing the words 'New Art City', Lu Yan's eyes in the room lit up. He didn't seem to have reacted yet, but he could actually understand the other party's Hong Kong-flavored Cantonese.

In 1980, Mr. Lui Juekun, the owner of the Golden Princess Cinema Line, the major shareholder of Kowloon Bus Corporation, and the chairman of Kowloon Development, took a fancy to the small "struggle" company. He wants to develop it into his own film production and compete with Shaw Brothers Golden Harvest in the Chinese film market in Hong Kong.

The struggle company is composed of three stinkers: Huang Baiming is the chief editor of the script, Mai Jia is in charge of directing, and Shi Tian is in charge of acting. With the wealthy Golden Princess behind her, the struggle company was reorganized into "New Art City Film Company". The generous Boss Lei left 49% of the shares for the three poor young people, which is undoubtedly a booster!

When it comes to the three words 'New Art City', which one doesn't say that it is a legend of Hong Kong movies! From 1980 to 1990, it was a full decade of fire, and the old oligarchy Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, who had been forced to be as powerful as water and fire in their heyday, joined forces to fight against Xinyicheng.

For example, in 1982, Golden Harvest's "Qimen Dunjia" and "Eight Colorful Lin Yazhen" made an exception and arranged to be released in the two major theaters of Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers at the same time, but unfortunately the box office was still not as good as "Best Partner" and "Difficult Brothers" of New Art City, and John Woo also terminated the contract with him in anger because of the box office failure of "Eight Colorful Lin Yazhen" directed by Golden Harvest, but New Art City immediately brought John Woo over.

Speaking of which, the reason why the "New Art City" was able to rise rapidly back then was that collective creation and brainstorming came to an end, and the seven-member creative team composed of Mai Jia, Shi Tian, Huang Baiming, Tsui Hark, Shi Nansheng, Zeng Zhiwei, and Teddy Robin collided with a lot of sparks, and almost all the classics in the early stage of the New Art City were the result of their collective efforts. The members of the seven-member group have their own strengths. McGar majored in electrical engineering in college, and later worked as an engineer before studying filmmaking at New York University, where he worked as an assistant director on three shootout films in the United States. In the "Best Buddies" series, he used his strengths in electronic engineering to skillfully incorporate special effects such as high-altitude flying cars and electronic weapons into his film creation. Shi Tian is a comedian and likes to review scripts from the perspective of an actor. Huang Baiming used to be an enthusiast of drama, he has a lot of experience in drama, and is good at screenwriting, and many scripts in Xinyicheng are written by him. Tsui Hark is a general who combines directing, writing, acting and other abilities, and is good at grasping a movie as a whole. Tsang Chi-wai is playful and well-informed, and has a good understanding of the aesthetic tastes of the grassroots in Hong Kong and Taiwan. Teddy Robin comes from the music industry and is a good conductor and actor.

The one outside was silent for a while, and then spoke again: "Since you don't want to open the door, I'll say a few thoughtful words to you through the door." You can see a lot of things yourself, and when it comes to seniority, I am your uncle. Hehe......"

Speaking of 'uncle', the man outside the door smiled unconsciously and continued: "Remember Wu Yusen! ”

Three words again, making Lu Yan's mouth open wide in the room.

"He joined Shaw Brothers in 1969, when he was younger than you are now. started as an assistant director, followed his master Zhang Che, and finally got qualified to be a director year after year. In the past few years, it was not very colorful, and I made several movies in a row, and I gradually couldn't get along with Shaw Brothers. At this time, Boss Zou of Golden Harvest found him and asked him if he was interested in going to Golden Harvest. You all know in the back that he was finally tricked into coming to our new art city!!

What you don't know is that the entrepreneurial work of New Art City is directed by John Woo. At that time, he had an appointment with Golden Harvest, and he could only use the pseudonym Wu Shangfei to direct for Xinyicheng. This comedy, called "Funny Times", is dedicated to the recently deceased comedy master Charlie. Chaplin paid tribute, the cost only cost more than one million, and the box office received more than five million, making the new art city take the first step steadily. ”

Lu Yan was a little shocked when he heard this, although he had learned about the 'New Art City', he never thought that the pioneering work was shot by John Woo.

The more Lu Yan listened, the more curious he became, and at this moment, he couldn't wait for the "uncle" to continue.

Unexpectedly, the "uncle" who said this resolutely stopped talking, and there was no sound outside the door.

Lu Yan, who was already a little fascinated, actually stood up and went over to open the door.

It didn't matter, but the short "uncle" at the door scared him firmly. It seemed that it was the trend of his habitual surname, and he Nunu opened his mouth and said, "Uncle Zeng! ”

"Rabbit cub, I really shouted 'uncle'. Don't be ashamed, I still feel old! ”

Lu Yan's brain was blank, and he was silent in his heart: Oh my God, when did Zeng Zhiwei become my 'uncle'???

PS: I've always been a slow burner, but the guarantee will only get more and more exciting. Without further ado, let's work hard to ask for votes! I hope that friends who like Hong Kong Entertainment can support us a lot and let us scratch the wind.
