Chapter 87: Alien

"Okay! I'm always welcome. Li Xuan nodded at Huang Yuetai and said.

Although Huang Yuetai is young, he has a good foundation and is studious, and he has been learning from Li Xuan for a month, and he has learned a lot of the concepts that Li Xuan brought over in later generations. If he can enter his own company, he will be a director and make movies by himself, and it will definitely be very suitable for use, but there is no need to find a photographer.

"Ah, thank you, Brother Xuan!" Huang Yuetai happily replied.

"Thank you, thank you." Li Xuan patted Huang Yuetai on the shoulder and said, "They are all talents, and our company will not refuse to come." ”

"Uh......, Brother Xuan." Huang Yuetai suddenly muttered: "That, can I also advance my salary for five years?" ”

No way! Li Xuan's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air, and the corners of his eyes twitched. This guy wants to join his own company, it won't be for money......

"Ahem." Li Xuan withdrew his hand and pretended to cough: "What do you want so much money for?" ”

"Flowers, what else can you do?"

Hearing this, Li Xuan frowned, and said unhappily: "Don't give it." ”

"Huh? Why? ”

"No, why, ......" Li Xuan paused: "If you call me a master, I will tell you why you don't give it." ”

"Huh?" Huang Yuetai looked at Li Xuan with wide eyes.

"Hmph, I'll help Fat Wang move the equipment." Li Xuan deliberately snorted coldly twice and walked out. Sample! After teaching you so much, can't you still be a master?

"Master!"

Li Xuan, who was full of smiles, turned around and patted Huang Yuetai's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Good apprentice, this is right." ”

"Master, money?" Huang Yuetai cautiously reminded.

"What money?" Li Xuan's face changed, and he reprimanded angrily: "How can a master advance the salary of an apprentice in advance." Bastard, don't help your Uncle Wang move things. ”

Looking at Huang Yuetai who was leaving in a huff, Li Xuan's heart suddenly felt a lot more comfortable, how long has it been since he was so relaxed? Sure enough, this person is still young.

A thin puff of smoke fills the stairway where sewage flows. The camera camera moves along the stairway, and two firefighters are retracting two long fire hoses, one in front of the other. As the camera continues, several police officers are going door-to-door asking about something.

The camera turned in front of the door where Li Xuan and the others had just done the explosion special effects. In the room, a group of plainclothes police officers are investigating something. A figure suddenly squatted down, it was the policeman played by Ren Dahua. He waved the mist in front of him with his hand and picked up a picture on the ground.

The camera advances, giving Ren Dahua's face a close-up.

At this time, Ren Dahua didn't say a word, and the look on his face was very complicated.

"Click! It's over. Wang Jin, who was in the opposite room, shouted with a loudspeaker: "Everyone, tell you a good news, it's a day to call it a day!" ”

"Oh yes!"

Huang Yuetai, who was carrying a camera, shouted first, and for young people, it was good news to call it a day.

"Bang Bang!"

Suddenly, a burst of applause came, and Li Xuan turned his head to look, only to see Xiang Huaqiang beside him holding his hands and striking each other. After attracting everyone's attention, Xiang Huaqiang said: "Everyone has worked hard in today's big scene. I'm in for a treat at night, the royal nightclub, everyone can play casually! ”

"Wow!"

As soon as Xiang Huaqiang's words fell, a cheer immediately sounded in the corridor.

Li Xuan looked at the messy shooting scene, and said to Xiang Huaqiang with a wry smile: "Brother Qiang, I won't go to this party, I have an appointment in the evening." ”

"Appointment?" Xiang Huaqiang asked suspiciously.

"I'll wait ......"

"What can you do? Royal Nightclub, you don't want to go to such a nice place? Li Xuan had just said half a sentence when he was interrupted by the obscene Wang Jin.

Li Xuan glared at Wang Jin fiercely, and continued: "I have to go to the Golden Harvest set to see how the later stage of "Mr. Zombie" is doing, and then I made an appointment with Ah Hong to watch a movie in the evening. ”

"Mr. Zombie" was finally completed on November 16th, and the film took more than two months to shoot alone. If it weren't for Li Xuan's intimidation halfway, it is estimated that this time would have to be doubled. Recently, Liu Yiwei is rushing to do post-production on the Golden Harvest studio, and he is very busy, and Li Xuan often goes over to inspect it.

However, on the side, Wang Jin's attention was obviously not on "Mr. Zombie", but on the second half of Li Xuan's sentence.

"Watching a movie? What movie? Isn't the midnight show of "The King of a Thousand Kings" the day after tomorrow? Wang Jin asked three questions curiously, you must know that Li Xuan rarely enters the cinema.

"Can I only watch your "King of a Thousand Kings"?" Li Xuan squinted his eyes and said with disdain.

"The King of a Thousand Kings" was scheduled to be released on November 29 by Golden Harvest Cinemas, and the midnight show was on November 25, but Li Xuan obviously had no plans to watch the midnight show of this movie at this time.

Now Wang Jin was even more curious, and hurriedly asked: "Then what ...... are you going to watch, you are going to watch "Alien"?" ”

Wang Jin finally reacted and looked at Li Xuan with wide eyes.

"Hmm!" Li Xuan nodded without hesitation.

The "Alien" series, for future generations, is one of the greatest movie series in the history of science fiction films, and countless science fiction fans talk about it. But now, for people in 1979, it's not a series, it's just a movie. The film, which was a big hit in North America in May, was finally released in Hong Kong on November 15.

Like "Star Wars," which was a hit in Hong Kong last year, the film is also invincible in Hong Kong.

The three films released at the same time as "Alien", Golden Harvest's "Heroes", Shaw Brothers' "Shanghai Beach Tycoon" and "Seven Evils" all suffered box office fiascos, and they were all released in a week after their rapid release.

And "Ghost Fight", which was released a week earlier than "Alien", is completely unlucky, and now there are only three theaters scheduled for films, which can be regarded as struggling to support.

"Ghost Fights Ghost", a movie made by Huang Ying imitating the script written by "People Are Scary", has a slightly rough storyline. However, Hong Jingbao relied on the popularity saved by "Scary", and in the first week of the movie's release, he still won a box office of 2.76 million. After another week of hard work, the box office finally pushed up to 300 million. Although he was cannon fodder for "Alien", fortunately he did not lose money and made a small profit.

And Xu Anhua's "Crazy Robbery" was much luckier, and it was painted the day before the release of "Alien". The movie was released for 14 days and had a box office score of 2.13 million. After all, as many critics expected, the film broke the box office record for Hong Kong art films. Xu Anhua also gained fame and fortune, and successfully transformed from a TV director to a film director.

"Traitor, it's not like you don't know that my movie has to do with it at the end of the month!" Wang Jin pointed at Li Xuan and said with a look of disdain.

Helplessly losing Wang Jin's eyes, Li Xuan replied: "What do you call it?" Are you embarrassed to compare it with a horror film that has been in theaters for half a month? ”

Li Xuan really doesn't believe that "The King of a Thousand Kings", a film suitable for all ages, will be crushed into cannon fodder by a horror film that has been released for half a month.

"Hey......

Wang Jin, who also had a little bottom in his heart, touched his head and smiled awkwardly. (To be continued.) )
