This kind of thing is not something that Wang Xiaohu can figure out at this age, so after listening to Master Yu Zhanyuan's unceremonious analysis, Wang Xiaohu was suddenly afraid. If you think about it carefully, if you were not cautious at that time, you are likely to become a victim, but fortunately, you are more familiar with the general direction of history and stand in the queue of the trend of historical development.

"You shouldn't get close to politics in the future, especially on the mainland, it's too risky." After a long silence in the study, Run Run Shaw said slowly: "I don't know what your purpose is, if you didn't stick to your position as a businessman and do enough filming, then you wouldn't be sitting here talking to us now." ”

"You probably don't know yet, do you?" Shen Zhong suddenly interjected and said: "Actually, we also had the Cultural Revolution in Hong Kong, and the scene was crazy at that time!" ”

Wang Xiaohu was slightly stunned, he didn't expect that the influence of the Cultural Revolution was so broad, even Hong Kong had been affected, and he looked at Shen Zhong curiously, but he didn't know that Shen Zhong looked at Jin Yong with a smile and said: "Your Zha Laodou is the one who suffered the most, he was almost assassinated back then!" ”

mentioned the Cultural Revolution in Hong Kong, Jin Yong's face inevitably became embarrassed, "It's unbearable to look back, it's unbearable to look back!" ”

It turned out that in the struggle against Britain and violence, Jin Yong, as a newspaper man, had always been very clear, and he was completely on the side of the Hong Kong government and supported their policies. Therefore, hats such as Han Jian, lackey, traitor, and "jackal" flew all over the sky, and he faced curses and insults from the "leftist" faction in all directions. In the most conspicuous position in the window of a domestic company in Hong Kong, the "Ten Han Annihilations" in the eyes of the "Leftists" were also exhibited, and Jin Yong was listed as the number one Han Anniversary, and was nicknamed "Jackal Yong".

After Lin Bin, a well-known male announcer of Radio Television Hong Kong, was doused with gasoline by the "leftists" and burned alive because he criticized the atrocities of the "leftists" in the program, "Ming Pao" successively published editorials such as "The Voice of Justice That Can't Be Extinguished" and "Mourning Mr. Lin Bin," deeply mourning Lin Bin's death, angrily condemning the heinous atrocities of the "leftists," and solemnly expressing that in order to maintain peace and stability in Hong Kong, he is willing to resolutely struggle together with his peers and will never compromise or retreat.

Subsequently, Jin Yong was included in the blacklist of six people assassinated by "leftist" elements, and Jin Yong's family also received a parcel bomb, Wang Shiyu found the parcel suspicious, so he called the police, and the police detonated the bomb in front of his house. The shadow of the assassination hung over Jin Yong's head, and he had no choice but to put down the "Ming Pao" business and take his family to Singapore for refuge. (Well, why did you know what I was going to write!) All kinds of envy and jealousy, so, I decided to directly copy the information in the book review area to take revenge on you, hum! "Isn't it, so crazy? The muscles on Wang Xiaohu's face twitched, and this secret had absolutely no small shock to him.

"How not? That's the main reason why we didn't support you entering the continent in the first place! Run Run Shaw sighed: "But you kid is too stubborn, fortunately, you are blessed with a great life, so next time you should remember your surname longer." ”

"Hey, pay attention next time, pay attention next time." Wang Xiaohu touched his nose and smiled dryly, he knew that the next time he entered the mainland would definitely not be as dangerous as this time, because after October, the Gang of 4 would collapse, and Grandpa Deng would also come back, but he would not immediately return to the mainland, he would wait, wait for it to be sent to the door.

"You just said you met the chairman?" Jin Yong asked with a different topic.

Wang Xiaohu nodded, "I see, but I only said a few words." ”

The fourth elder saw that Wang Xiaohu was not very interested in this topic, so he did not continue, but Run Run Shaw smiled and said: "Xiaohu, your company has not received anything in the past six months, on the contrary, my Shaw Brothers movies are making great progress, haha, Zhang Che's self-organized Longbow Film Company in Taiwan has provided me with two good movies this year." ”

"Oh? Good movie, what's the name? Wang Xiaohu quickly came up with the big director Zhang Che who was dressed very fashionably, and the movie that could make Run Run Shaw so excited must be good.

"Shaolin Temple" and "Shaolin Five Ancestors". "Shaolin Temple" was released a while ago, and the response was not bad, and the box office was also very satisfactory, and I plan to arrange the release of "Shaolin Five Ancestors" when you don't seize the summer file. ”

Shaw smiled very happily, in fact, it is easy to understand Lao Shao's mood when you think about it, looking at the entire Southeast Asian market, large and small theaters are concentrated on Concord's kung fu films, Shaw Brothers' influence is gradually decreasing, and with the expansion of Concord's multi-element in comedy and literary films, its kung fu film production is also gradually decreasing, and Shaw Brothers finally seized the opportunity to seize the box office.

Practice has proved that the box office appeal of the Shaw Brothers Five Tigers and Zhang Che still occupies the second place in the ranks of kung fu films, and Run Run Shaw is naturally happy.

It's just that Wang Xiaohu's face is a little wrong, in the eyes of Run Run Shaw and others, this kid's face is strange and weird to the point of being beaten, and he is even deliberately suppressing his smile.

"Boy, isn't that funny?" After all, Run Run Shaw couldn't help but ask.

"Uh, no, it's not funny at all." Wang Xiaohu coughed vigorously twice, and finally controlled his expression of laughter, but in fact, he was almost about to burst into laughter in his heart.

Shaw Brothers actually filmed "Shaolin Temple"! This news definitely makes Wang Xiaohu feel funny, in fact, think about it, in the minds of their generation, Jet Li's version of "Shaolin Temple" has been preconceived, and he Wang Xiaohu only knows Jet Li's version, and he can't imagine that the great director Zhang Che actually filmed "Shaolin Temple" in the 70s!

He really wants to know what the big director Zhang Che, who has always been known for his masculinity, brotherhood, and disc wars, looks like this "Shaolin Temple", as if everything happened to be together, he just turned Jet Li from the mainland, and heard that Zhang Che's "Shaolin Temple" was released, and the box office was not bad.

I definitely want to see this movie, Wang Xiaohu made up his mind.

Wang Xiaohu still has some impressions of "Shaolin Five Ancestors", after all, the new film he is about to prepare for is "New Shaolin Five Ancestors", a remake of Zhang Che's "Shaolin Five Ancestors", Jet Li's rare classic.

"Uncle Six, you have to be mentally prepared, I will remake your two movies when I come back."

Wang Xiaohu said with a smile, that kind of confidence made Run Run Shaw a little uncomfortable, "The remake of the movie this year may not be a hit." ”

"Then it's up to who's going to make the remake!" Wang Xiaohu said unceremoniously: "When the sixth uncle doesn't scold people angrily!" ”

"I'm not so generous!" Shaw pouted dismissively.

"I can remember this, the other three old beans testify to me, if the sixth uncle turns his face, you have to call the shots for me!"

Don't look at the relationship between Wang Xiaohu and Run Run Shaw is very harmonious, sometimes the two will compete fiercely in the market, but they have never hurt the harmony, but it has effectively stimulated the common development of the two major film companies.

At present, the director and actor pools between Concord and Shaw Brothers are basically shared, and occasionally there will be co-productions.

The legend of Shaolin in modern times has always been an inexhaustible treasure trove of themes for Hong Kong martial arts films.

If you really want to say who is the originator of the Shaolin theme, from the analysis of historical origins, it is really Zhang Che, don't look at Jet Li's "Shaolin Temple" later overshadowed Zhang Che, but in the mid-to-late 70s, it was Zhang Che's Shaolin theme that provided inspiration for Liu Jialiang and others, and then caused the popularity of classic movies such as "Shaolin Thirty-six Rooms" and "Shaolin Tent Master".

Even Wang Xiaohu had to admit the rich imagination of Hong Kong filmmakers at that time, especially the directors of martial arts kung fu films

On the third day after Wang Xiaohu returned to Hong Kong, a piece of bad news came from Wang Jiaxing, manager of the Taiwan branch: In view of the fact that the relationship between Wang Xiaohu and the mainland is too close, the Taiwan authorities have decided to ban Wang Xiaohu!

As the saying goes, good things don't go out, bad things go a thousand miles, and this news quickly spread in Hong Kong, and in the eyes of outsiders, this pair of Wang Xiaohu is tantamount to a heavy punch, which hit Concord Company, which dominates the Southeast Asian film market, hard.

Everyone knows that Taiwan's box office is a must for Hong Kong filmmakers, and now Taiwan's political axe has come forward to ban Wang Xiaohu, which means that the movies produced by Concord will no longer be seen in Taiwan's theaters in the future, and the banner of the revival of literary films seems to be cut off.

"Concord was completely blocked by Taiwan's political axe, and there was a crack in the film dynasty!"

"Wang Xiaohu insisted on currying favor with the mainland, causing a comprehensive boycott by Taiwan's Chiang family!"

"According to the latest news from the Golden Horse Awards Organizing Committee, Concord Films' "Ah Lang's Story" was withdrawn from the opportunity to compete for the Golden Horse Awards for Best Feature Film, Best Director, and Best Actor and Actress because of this incident."

This news has also aroused great attention in the Hong Kong film circle, and its discussions are no less than a Tangshan earthquake, with regrets, sympathizers, and schadenfreude.

Fortunately, the anger of the Taiwan authorities is directed at the surname, they only blocked Wang Xiaohu's Concord Company and its four major satellite companies, and they are still more merciful to film companies such as Shaw Brothers, Siyuan, and Siwei, which means that they can take the opportunity to occupy Taiwan's film industry.

The news reached Concord, but it did not cause much of an earthquake. Because Wang Xiaohu has long known that there will be such a situation today, compared to the cake in Taiwan, he really doesn't think much of it, you ban it, right? Just ban it as you like!

"Shaonan, help me contact Barrister Benaki." Wang Xiaohu called Li Shaonan in and gave instructions, and immediately picked up the phone and called Run Run Shaw: "Hey, sixth uncle, do you want to give you a great benefit?" ”

"The benefits? Hehe, you kid can still give benefits to others for free? Run Run Shaw could vaguely guess a few points: "Is it about Taiwan's blocking of you?" ”

Wang Xiaohu smiled and said: "It's just this matter, I don't know if Uncle Sixth is interested in my branch in Taiwan and that cinema line?" ”

"You," Run Run Shaw hesitated on the phone, "you can't be so generous, are you?" ”

"Hehe, instead of being taken advantage of by Taiwan's political axe, it's better to be cheaper Sixth Uncle, isn't it? As long as our Concord branch and cinema chain are transferred to the name of Shaw Brothers, and the Longbow Group directed by Zhang Che is divided at the same time, I believe there will be no loss. Wang Xiaohu said in a very serious tone.

Temptation, naked temptation!

A tycoon like Run Run Shaw couldn't help but swallow his saliva after listening to Wang Xiaohu's suggestion, he knew how much effort Wang Xiaohu had invested in the Taiwan market in the past two years, although the Taiwan branch did not have a substantial structure, but that cinema chain was something that Run Run Run Shaw had coveted.

Can such a good thing really fall on your head? Shaw really didn't react at once. "See you in one eye!"

"Are you really so generous?" Run Run Shaw drank the herbal tea hard, but after all, he still felt a little dry, after all, Wang Xiaohu's words were too tempting, so that this entertainment tycoon in Southeast Asia could not calm down.

"Of course not!" Wang Xiaohu smiled weirdly and said, "Actually, it is temporarily placed in the hands of the sixth uncle for a few years, and I will redeem it when the time is ripe." ”

"I know you're not so generous!" Run Run Shaw rolled his eyes depressedly and said, "But a few years is enough, but it should be lower than the market price, otherwise don't blame Uncle Six for not helping." ”

Run Run Shaw likes to rob while the fire is hot, and the other party is especially Wang Xiaohu: his own deed boy, a strategic partner.

"No problem, in this way, Uncle Six's territory in Southeast Asia is stronger, and he will have to take care of it in the future." Wang Xiaohu is also a bachelor, if he were someone else, I am afraid that at this time he would already have a headache or try his best to go to Taiwan's political axe to run relations, begging the Taiwan authorities to be lenient.

But Wang Xiaohu did not do this, although the Taiwan market is the second largest battlefield of the Hong Kong film box office, the loss of the Taiwan market does not mean that Concord will not be able to move an inch, in fact, Concord still has more markets, Wang Xiaohu still occupies the largest share in Southeast Asia.

"But Uncle Six, you have to cooperate with me to do something!" Wang Xiaohu leaned forward, dipped his fingers in the herbal tea, and then wrote a few words on the table, Run Run Shaw was stunned for a moment after reading it, frowned for a while, raised his head to look at Wang Xiaohu and said, "You, did you really decide to do this?" ”

Wang Xiaohu nodded: "Hmm." ”

"Okay, since I have taken your benefits, I have to spit out some interest, anyway, I already feel that there are too many rules over there, and cooperating with you is also to leave a way back for your future development." Run Run Shaw stretched out his hand to smear himself on the table, picked up the herbal tea and poured it down: "Then we will go our separate ways." ”

"Hey, Uncle Six, don't be too anxious, you have to do this slowly, so as not to let the Taiwanese Yankees perceive our intentions, and then the gains outweigh the losses." Wang Xiaohu said with a smile

"The Story of Ah Lang" lost the opportunity to compete for this year's Golden Horse Awards, and everyone expressed considerable sympathy for Chow Yun-fat and Zhang Aijia, believing that Wang Xiaohu's insistence on going his own way not only ruined the future future of Concord Company, but also buried the good star career of the two actors.

Many people are persuading Chow Yun-fat to change jobs and persuade Zhang Aijia to find another master, but no matter how they persuade them, both of them are unmoved.

"Brother Tiger said that people's vision can't be too short-sighted, the Golden Horse Awards are nothing, if you lose it, you will lose it, after all, there is not only one Golden Horse Film Festival in the world." Chow Yun-fat was asked by reporters many times, and he was very impatient.

All media reporters didn't expect Chow Yun-fat to be so strong and say so arrogantly, just like Wang Xiaohu back then, they didn't know why Chow Yun-fat had such strong self-confidence.

In their opinion, the Golden Horse Awards have a high influence in the entire Southeast Asian region, to put it mildly, the Golden Horse Awards are the Oscars in Asia, and it is already a rare opportunity to be nominated for the Golden Horse Awards, and such an excellent work as "The Story of Ah Lang" is out because of Wang Xiaohu, and the rookie idol Chow Yun-fat not only did not show the frustration and chagrin they hoped for, but even so confident!

They couldn't understand the source of Chow Yun-fat's confidence, but subconsciously they felt that Wang Xiaohu was probably going to have new moves again.

But what about the facts? Wang Xiaohu is also very calm, these days he is carrying the camera to shoot Wang Jiaen's life clips of rolling in bed, and he will roll in bed with his son while he is full of interest.

The reporter also found that recently, Wang Xiaohu often visited his neighbor's house, would take a teenage child to run every morning, and take him to Xiehe's base for training, all of which suddenly made the media reporters scratch their heads.

You said that this is going to burn your ass, why aren't you Wang Xiaohu in a hurry at all?

"Very good, Zhengdong, you did a very beautiful few actions."

The national martial arts champion is really not messy, Jet Li easily finished a set of long punches, his face was not red or panting, and his movements were chic and elegant, especially a few movements of flying feet in the air, which won Wang Xiaohu's praise.

Such behavior made the four children of Stephen Chow, Andy Lau, Huang Yuehua, and Shen Moyan, who were trained at the base, stunned!

"Senior brother, this mainland boy's kung fu is awesome!" Andy Lau said to Stephen Chow.

"Hmph, can Shuai eat it as a meal?" Stephen Chow pursed his lips disdainfully and said: "It's all just a showcase, what do you do when you jump so high, you have no roots under your feet, and you will be knocked down with one punch!" ”

Andy Lau immediately snorted when he heard this: "But I haven't seen you do such a handsome move!" ”

"I'm practicing kung fu, not routines!" Stephen Chow immediately blushed, he felt that his identity as a senior brother had been provoked, raised his small fist and shook it and said, "Believe it or not, I punched that mainland boy?" ”

"Xingzai, you're not his opponent yet!" Shen Moyan suddenly dismantled the stage at this time and said: "I can see that his northern faction has a very solid foundation, Zama is very stable, and his flexibility is higher than yours, if you fight him, you will only have one end: you can't touch anyone!" ”

Zhou Xingchi was stunned for a long time, staring at his eyes and puffing out his cheeks, and said angrily: "Damn, you are rebelling, aren't you, you, and you will run twenty laps around the base for me, don't want to eat if you can't finish today's lunch!"

Gotcha, Xingzi is not calm! ――

Solicitation of opinions: The actor of red beans in "New Shaolin Five Ancestors", well, the original version is played by Qiu Shuzhen, uh, who is more charming in 76 Hong Kong female stars? A few are recommended.
