Chapter 9: Inexplicable
"According to my meaning, why don't you let Sam sing a song for all of us!" Mai Jia said with a smile in Dongshan dialect, and the expression in the play was really amazing.
At this moment, Lu Yan and Tsui Hark have also joined the celebration group, and Lu Yan is nothing. On the other hand, Tsui Hark didn't know if he had made a choice after all, or he was finally happy that he had the first 'comrade-in-arms'. Taking advantage of this happiness, he also touched a few glasses with Huang Baiming one after another.
The 'King Kong', who is known as the "God of Song", "Hong Kong Music Superstar", "Hong Kong Pop Music Ancestor" and "Originator of Cantonese Song" in the Hong Kong music scene, is of course cooperating with the "bald guy" and nodded: "Okay, since everyone is so popular." Then I will present you with a song "The Best Partner Shows His Magical Powers", I hope you can like it! ”
No one expected Xu Guanjie to pick this song, everyone just applauded after being stunned. As the theme song of "Best Partner", how can these 'old guys' not be familiar with it. And this is indeed a good sign, since the first "Best Partner" has been a boom at the box office. Up to now, the first box office in Hong Kong is still "Best Partner", and the second place in the drama is "Best Partner 2".
No one thought that Xu Guanjie would be allowed to sing in advance, so there was no preparation. In fact, Xu Guanjie's name of 'God of Song' is indeed appropriate, and his voice makes everyone feel very pleasant as soon as he comes out. After all, a cappella is much more difficult than a backing song.
At the end of the song, everyone applauded.
"Old Monster Xu, although there has been a dispute since the beginning of filming. But ......"
Without waiting for Huang Baiming to finish speaking, Tsui Hark just picked up the wine glass and gently touched him and said: "Everything goes without saying, I hope this film can continue the momentum of the 'best partner' fire!! In fact, I have benefited a lot from many of your comments. I still admire you very much. ”
"Haha!" Huang Baiming laughed, and then said in one word: "Each other, each other." ”
Lu Yan saw all this in his eyes, and inevitably said a little sadly in his heart: Who knows, this may be the last time you will cooperate.
"Yan Zai, what are you doing there. Come and have a drink together! ”
With a shout, Lu Yan also wandered around everyone like a butterfly wearing flowers. In such a circle, he must fit in, and he is willing. These people may need each other's help in the future. It's a relationship, and of course a friend.
Finally, everyone raised a glass to wish "Best Partner: The Queen's Secret" a box office hit.
It's not like later, no matter what movie is finished, there will be a finale party. Although the first two films of the "Best Partner" series were big hits, the so-called cocktail parties were just 'celebration receptions'. What's more, many people need to rush to work in different scenes, and the filmmakers in this period are very dedicated and busy.
And compared with some other film companies, the new art city at this moment is basically a big investment. Although at the beginning, "Funny Times" and "Happy Fairy Nest" were both low-budget films. Although the two films that are the company's entrepreneurial works are profitable, Xinyicheng is not satisfied, but "decided to increase production, increase manpower, and show its strength".
So Tsui Hark was born and directed "Ghost Horse Smart Star". is completely different from the popular drama of bad clothes in Hong Kong at that time, "Ghost Horse Wisdom and Many Stars" is very Westernized, with gorgeous and bright sets and costumes (the art director of the film is Zhang Shuping), giving the audience a refreshing feeling. The film was a huge success and made "modern and luxurious streamlined comedy a reality".
In the same year, Xinyicheng gathered almost all of the company's funds at that time and invested in the high-cost "Best Partner". Since then, almost all of the films in New Arts City have been big investments, targeting the mainstream market. Perhaps related to the big-budget production strategy, in the fight scenes, the characters in the urban action comedy of New Arts City often show a strong desire to destroy, and they do not feel sorry when destroying property.
In Lu Yan's eyes, in terms of such a subjective motive, this may be that Xinyicheng wants to "smash" the money in the open. You must know that in Hong Kong during this period, with the rapid economic development and the accelerated pace of life, the psychological pressure of Hong Kong people is increasing. The action scene of destroying property can allow the audience to vent their inner anxiety and relieve mental pressure.
It is precisely because of the emergence of such a movie that the audience is naturally willing to spend some money to buy tickets to watch it comfortably.
In many films such as the "Best Partner" series, New Arts City also designed big scenes such as big explosions, multi-car collisions, helicopters chasing speedboats, and cars leaping between rooftops, which enhanced the visual impact of the film and improved the viewing surname of the film.
As one of the participants, Lu Yan was also full of pride.
With the end of the finale reception, Lu Yan finally had a break from his work during this time. Of course, it doesn't mean that once a movie is finished, it can be screened immediately. After all, it still needs to be edited and integrated later, but these have nothing to do with Lu Yan's small field notes.
"Ah Yan, do you want to relax together at night! Just relax!? ”
The person who came forward to talk to Lu Yan was just a handyman on the set, and Lu Yan basically had no communication with him.
"Go ahead!" Lu Yan smiled and refused directly. He really had little interest in Hong Kong's nightlife during this period. Coupled with the topic that Tsui Hark talked about with himself today, he didn't have any intention of playing.
Unexpectedly, the person who invited Lu Yan didn't say much, and another man on the side immediately said: "Don't be ashamed of your face, Brother Cai told you to give you face." You actually refused without even thinking about it, and you really thought that you would be angry if you caught up with the director!! ”
Originally, the face of the brother named Cai was fine, but when he heard the latter sentence, his expression couldn't help but darken. However, he still seems to be a person with grace, waving his hand and sneering: "Forget it, Yan Zai is now a celebrity next to the director." Let's go, we little people still play our own go. ”
"Phew! What the hell ......?"
The group left like this, leaving Lu Yan, who was stunned in place, confused.
"You're very tall? Proud? Be all abroad! Lu Yan smiled self-deprecatingly, showing that the young man who provoked the trouble was red-eyed.
"Yan Zai! Why don't you go and have fun with everyone? ”
"Not interested!" Lu Yan, who was in a rather unhappy mood, didn't think much about it, and left quickly after replying directly.
"! I really think you're a big guy, I see if you can shoot something in the future! "The crew member who came up to ask was even more inexplicable, and when he saw Lu Yan leaving, he had to stand in place and burst into a 'foul mouth'.
