"Premiere?"

Shu Qi looked at the invitation in front of him with curiosity, in the past, Hong Kong film companies used to give midnight movie tickets to magazines with reviews like them, but this was the first time someone sent an invitation to the premiere. And if my memory is correct, this should also be the first premiere in the history of Hong Kong films.

But......

Shu Qi quietly put down the invitation, looked at Chen Baisheng and asked suspiciously, "Baisheng, why don't you go?" I remember that you seem to know Li Xuan. ”

"This has nothing to do with Li Xuan, I just don't want to see anything related to Shaw Brothers for the time being!" Chen Baisheng replied coldly.

"Haha." Shu Qi chuckled and shook his head, and then asked slowly, "Isn't it, are you still angry now?" ”

This time, Chen Baisheng did not answer, but asked directly: "Shao Yifu can say that kind of thing, why can't I be angry?" ”

What did Shao Yifu say that made Chen Baisheng so angry?

It turned out that just a few days ago, on January 19, 1981, Shao Yifu went to Manila, the capital of the Philippines, to attend the preparatory meeting for the first Manila Film Festival. I don't know if this old man is filming the Philippine political axe or if he is old and confused, and he actually said the surprising words that the Hong Kong International Film Festival can be suspended after the meeting.

As soon as this sentence was transmitted back to Hong Kong, it immediately aroused criticism from a group of film critics. As one of the founders of the Hong Kong International Film Festival, Chen Baisheng is even more angry, although he is no longer in charge of the affairs of the film festival, but this is also the child he worked so hard to raise, can he be spoiled by others?

"Alas! You, you, you ......" Shu Qi sighed and said seriously: "I plan to give you the position of editor-in-chief after a while, this first film premiere in Hong Kong is a waste whether I go or someone else, you are just right." But why are you so stubborn! ”

Chen Baisheng frowned slightly when he heard Shu Qi's words, and said slowly: "Didn't your editor-in-chief do a good job?" I'm always thinking about what to tell me to do. ”

"That's the difference between a full-time job and a part-time job." Shu Qi chuckled softly: "I'm a part-time editor-in-chief, but you, the editor-in-chief, are full-time, isn't it just right for the two of us to change?" Besides, I'm not leaving the magazine. ”

Hearing Shu Qi's words, Chen Baisheng rubbed his eyebrows and said unhappily: "Anyway, if you go to this premiere or someone else, you don't have to look for me again." ”

"I'm going to the premiere, so why are you going?"

"Me?" Chen Baisheng raised his head slightly, and said with a serious face: "I'll talk to someone from the radio station again, I don't want the Academy Awards to become the second Hong Kong International Film Festival." ”

"You, your stubborn temper is coming up again." Shu Qi shook his head and said: "We finally found such a partner, and RTHK is a political axe unit, so it is understandable that they want to invite two political axe officials to be the guests of honor." As long as the award is in our hands, you can let them go. ”

"Politics is not about art, and that's one of my ideals when I started the festival." Chen Baisheng suddenly stood up and said with a serious face: "So no matter what, I will try again this time, and do my best to guarantee the fairness of the prize!" ”

After Chen Baisheng finished speaking, he silently turned around and left Shu Qi's office. Only Shu Qi, who looked helpless in the room, sat behind the desk and quietly looked at the invitation.

"Premiere?"

Jin Yong helped the gold-wire glasses on the bridge of his nose, looking at the invitation in his hand with a surprised face, he didn't expect Li Xuan's stinky boy to toss a premiere. Jin Yong, who used to work as a film screenwriter at the Great Wall Company, was already a newspaper tycoon at this time, but he also knew what the premiere was.

I just don't know what that kid made "Smiling Proud Jianghu" look like, if it's too bad, his face will be lost. However, the movie should be good, otherwise Shao Yifu would use the leading theater under the name of Shaw Brothers to accompany Li Xuan crazy?

Well! On the day of the premiere, I had to go early.

Jin Yong thought all the way and put down the invitation card in his hand, and picked up a magazine next to him.

It is a sixteen-page magazine, with the entire cover page in blue and a large photograph printed on the cover. In the photo, a woman wearing a yellow practice uniform has set up a martial arts rack with a side squat on the grass. This is a magazine that is obviously related to martial arts, because this magazine is called "Wulin".

However, a discerning person can see at a glance that this is obviously not a Hong Kong martial arts magazine, the reason is not only that the cover style of the magazine is completely different from that of Hong Kong magazines, but also because the words on this magazine are all simplified Chinese!

That's right, this "Wulin" is a martial arts magazine published in Guangzhou, mainland China. At this time, in this magazine, Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is being serialized.

And this also marks that Jin Yong's martial arts novels have officially entered the mainland market after opening up the Taiwan market.

However, this magazine was sent to him by Director Liao of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the mainland, which can be regarded as another show of goodwill to him from the north. And Shao Yifu's secret to the north, Jin Yong knows, so this time in the face of repeated invitations from the north, do you go or not?

Even if he wants to go north, he can only go north secretly like Shao Yifu!

Jin Yong put down the magazine in his hand with a headache, compared to whether he went north or not, now, there was a more troublesome thing waiting for him.

But it was Wen Rui'an in Jin Guliang's warmth, who came to him for help!

Wen Rui'an, an unlucky child, mentioned earlier, this guy created a "Shenzhou Poetry Society" in Taiwan. However, not long after the establishment of this association, it was reported that it was "propaganda for bandits", and as a result, the association was disbanded, and Wen Ruian was invited by the Taiwan authorities to drink coffee twice in three days. Later, the matter became more and more troublesome, and Wen Ruian was simply driven out of Taiwan by the Taiwan authorities.

Well, I can't stay in Taiwan anymore, so let's go back to my hometown by myself.

Although Wen Rui'an is originally from Meixian County, Guangdong, he himself was born in Malaysia. However, he may have forgotten that Malaysia at this time was a resolutely anti-red country.

At this moment, Wen Ruian can't even go back to his hometown.

I can't go to Taiwan, and I can't go back to my hometown Malaysia, so Wen Ruian wants to come to Hong Kong. But this unlucky child happened to encounter the Hong Kong government's tightening of immigration policies. In October last year, the Hong Kong government ordered all black households in Hong Kong to reapply for identity cards within three days, and they will no longer be accepted after the expiration date. Just this month, the Hong Kong government has just repealed the law that smugglers will be issued ID cards when they go to Hong Kong, and if you want a Hong Kong ID card in the future, you must have lived in Hong Kong for at least seven years and have a stable and legal job, and you must have more than three Hong Kong People's Federation cooperative insurance.

As a result, Wen Ruian applied for immigration to Hong Kong several times, but was rejected by the Hong Kong government's immigration department because of his lack of qualifications.

This time the unlucky child is finally angry, I am not a Hong Kong person anymore, it is enough for me to apply for a work visa as an overseas employee!

But Wen Ruian was dumbfounded again when he thought about it, although he said that he was a famous martial arts novelist, there were countless novels published in Ming Pao. But in detail, he is just a writer of codewords, and his relationship with Ming Pao is just to send articles and collect money, where did he come from as an employee.

Originally, if Wen Rui'an had proposed to work in Ming Pao before this series of unfortunate things happened, Jin Yong would have raised his hands to welcome it. But now the Taiwan authorities have charged him with "propaganda for bandits," and Jin Yong, who has just established good relations with Taiwan, will let Wen Ruian come to the newspaper unless he is stupid.

But the relationship between Jin Yong and Wen Rui'an is not bad, this time everyone is begging for him, so he has to find a way!

But Jin Yong is worried now, which company dares to accept a person who "promotes for bandits"?

"Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh ”

Li Xuan, who was having afternoon tea with Ding Pei and Zhong Chuhong at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, only felt an itch in his nose, and couldn't help but sneeze out a series of sneezes. But fortunately, Li Xuan had already covered his nose with a napkin, and he didn't lose his ugliness in public.

Ding Pei, who was sitting opposite Li Xuan and Zhong Chuhong, laughed and said, "Haha, Xuanzi Ah Hong, you two are young, no matter how crazy you are at night, you must pay attention to your body." ”

"Sister Pei, you're changing the topic again!" Zhong Chuhong's eyes were slightly red and said, "Why do you want to divorce?" Haven't you always had a good relationship with Brother Qiang? ”

Li Xuan also wiped his nose and asked slowly, "Yes, Sister Pei." You're divorced, how do you plan to live in the future? ”

"How's it going? It's like this, isn't it easy for people to live, just look down on everything. Ding Pei replied lightly.

"But ......" Zhong Chuhong hesitated for a moment, but continued to ask: "I still can't understand why you divorced." Besides, what about your children? ”

Hearing Zhong Chuhong's question, Ding Pei quietly turned her head to look at the magnificent Victoria Bay outside the window, and did not make a sound for a long time...... (To be continued.) )
