Chapter 334: Weird Invitations

In May 1984, the most lively event in Hong Kong was the Miss Hong Kong finals. And the champion of Miss Hong Kong this time is named Gao Lihong, and Li Xuan has a slight impression of her. This Gao Lihong is Hong Jingbao's second wife, and the two took the path of master-apprentice love at the beginning, and Gao Lihong also participated in many Hong Jingbao movies in later generations.

But now the two obviously don't know each other, Hong Kyung-bo's first wife is still the Korean woman with a good reputation.

"The Saint of Gambling" has been filmed continuously for more than a month, and it is gradually coming to an end. This movie obviously doesn't need to be as elaborate as "God of Gamblers", and the nonsensical plus cold humor is very good. The whole crew has been in a laughing atmosphere during the filming period, which proves the popularity of Zhou's comedy from another side.

Sha Tin Racecourse, Hong Kong.

The Hong Kong Horse Race season is held from September to June every year, and there are a series of horse races in Hong Kong every Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. Hong Kong people are particularly fond of betting on horses, so when it is time to bet on horses, the racecourse or betting places for horse betting are crowded with black people.

Of course, Li Xuan and they will definitely not pick these three days to go to the racecourse to shoot exterior scenes.

Li Xuan: They went to the racecourse on Friday, and they also found more than 20 extras as backgrounds along the way. As for the horse racing footage, part of it is a live footage of some horse training, and some of it is simply a direct video of a horse betting show taken from a previous TV show, and then combined with the filming plot.

This kind of grafting method will be used by many filmmakers.

On the audience stage of the racecourse fence, Zhu Xiaoxiao and Huang Qiusheng were sitting on the steps, with a painful and tangled face. And Zhou Xingchi squatted beside the two of them and was comforting. Zhu Xiaomi, many people know it. It is the actor who plays Tang Bohu's strange old lady in "Tang Bohu's Autumn Fragrance".

However, Zhu is Malaysian. Now just 30 years old, her husband and two children have been living in Singapore, and she has been singing for a living in Hong Kong lounges or nightclubs for the past few years. Most of the money she earns has to be mailed back to Singapore for her family's use, so her daily life in Hong Kong is very hard, and lunch is often just an apple and a bowl of vegetables.

All right......

Li Xuan was very surprised when he happened to see Zhu Xiaoxiao's Cantonese minor album in the video store, he didn't know that this famous mother-level actor in Hong Kong films in later generations actually took the path of singing and acting.

No one paid attention to this golden green leaf at all now, and Li Xuan signed her casually. At least the job as an actress is a little more stable than when she sings in a lounge. And because of the positioning of the supporting role, she doesn't have many scenes, sometimes after filming during the day, she can go to the lounge to sing at night and get an extra salary. Therefore, since Zhu Xiaoxiao was signed by Li Xuan, he has been very concerned about being an actor.

Of course, the crew's boxed lunches are more hearty than those she cooks herself, which may not be the reason why she gradually likes acting.

Zhu Xiaoxiao plays the role of Hua Gu in "The Saint of Gambling", who is the card friend and crush of the protagonist's third uncle. In later generations, many people didn't know much about Zhu Xiaomian and Lu Wanyin, because the two looked a little similar. And the flower girl in the original film was played by Lu Wanyin. However, Lu Wanyin is now a wireless actor, so naturally she is not as good as the actor in Li Xuan's own hands.

So. In the end, this role came to Zhu Xiaomian's hands.

……

"Well......, Hua Gu. Don't worry, what about your ticket? Can you lend me a look. Seeing that the two of them were really 'miserable', Zhou Xingchi also asked with a tangled face.

Huang Qiusheng stretched out his right hand with a depressed face, danced the horse ticket and said, "Here, it's useless now." ”

"Not necessarily, maybe I can help." Zhou Xingchi snatched the horse ticket in Huang Qiusheng's hand and said mysteriously.

"Hmph-" Huang Qiusheng snorted rather depressedly, and said dejectedly: "If you can raise money to help Xiaolan with the knife, then it will be a favor to help Hua Gu." ”

Zhou Xingchi nodded, put down the radio in his other hand, and responded, "I'll figure it out." ”

……

Zhou Xingchi put the horse ticket in the palm of his left hand and pondered slightly, then clasped his hands together and covered his right hand on his left hand. Then, then Zhou Xingchi closed his eyes and rubbed his hands together.

……

"Hey, hey, hey-" Huang Qiusheng looked at Zhou Xingchi, who was acting strangely, and hurriedly called Hua Gu and said, "You see that there is smoke on his head." ”

……

"You bastard, why did you tell me to buy No. 6." Wu Mengda walked to Zhou Xingchi, who had just finished rubbing the horse cards and was trembling all over.

Zhou Xingchi, who was weak, waved his hand, handed the horse ticket to Hua Gu and said, "Hua Gu, look. ”

"Ahh Zhu Xiaoxiao and Huang Qiusheng were surprised, and called out happily: "Ah Xing, you can actually rub the horse ticket into No. 7, thank you so much, thank you." ”

……

"Uncle Biao, how do you feel about this scene?"

There are very few scenes in the racecourse in this movie, and the whole crew spent a morning to get it done. So while waiting for the crew to pack up the props, Li Xuan also chatted with the middle-aged man who was watching the play.

This person is called Dong Biao.

Dong Biao is also a gold-level supporting actor in the Hong Kong film industry, and he often plays Chenglong in later generations. The "Rich and Powerful" series of movies starring him and Shen Dianbian is a super successful gold-absorbing series. And he is a well-known horse judge and professional jockey in Hong Kong, and has been hosting ATV's most popular Marseille show, so it is not surprising that Li Xuan can meet him at the racecourse.

But what makes Li Xuan feel most admired is that this guy now has four wives, and one divorced a few years ago. At this point, he is obviously much better than the gambling king in Macau, you must know that the gambling king in Macau is now only three wives!

"Hehe, if there is really someone who can play cards, Macau and Hong Kong are estimated to be closed." Dong Biao smiled lightly and humored a little.

Li Xuan shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "It can't be closed, casinos have restrictive policies." ”

Dong Biao has always been a diehard loyalist of ATV, and in the past ten years, ATV has not left ATV. Therefore, its status in ATV is very high, and Li Xuan is also one of the minority shareholders of ATV, which makes there a rare sense of closeness between the two.

"No matter how limited it is, where can it be restricted?" Dong Biao said nonchalantly.

Li Xuan didn't like gambling very much, so he changed the topic and said: "That's too, by the way, Uncle Biao, you have made so many cameo appearances in movies and TV series, have you ever thought about starring in a movie?" ”

"Starring yourself? I? Am I a bad old man? Dong Biao asked with a stunned expression.

"Haha, can't a bad old man star in a movie?" Li Xuan smiled and continued: "Sun Yue is three years older than Uncle Biao, and a "Wrong Car" is not popular all over Hong Kong and Taiwan. ”

"......Forehead" Dong Biao was stunned, thought for a while, and asked: "It's too time-consuming to film, and I can't spare time to host Marseille now." ”

can see Dong Biao's shirking, Li Xuan is not reluctant, this guy has been in the film and television industry since the forties, and now he is just running tricks in movies and TV series. Although it can be said that he did not meet the scripts and characters he was interested in, there must also be reasons why his main job is a horse judge.

Anyway, no one should be able to figure out the "Rich and Powerful" series in a short period of time, and Li Xuan has a lot of movie series in his hands, so he is not in a hurry.

Now, it's good for the two to have a relationship.

It was quite a pleasure for Li Xuan to meet Dong Biao when he was filming in the morning. However, there were not so many accidents in the afternoon, Li Xuan dragged a bunch of people to his villa to shoot a gunfight scene in the afternoon, and naturally he would not meet any outsiders.

However, Li Xuan, the person who was unexpectedly involved in the afternoon, did not meet him, but received an invitation that made him feel very strange.

It was a red invitation, and it was an invitation to him to attend the opening ceremony of the film company. In the past two years, Hong Kong film companies have sprung up, and Li Xuan, as one of the bigwigs of Hong Kong cinemas, has received countless invitations. He didn't have to pay attention to most of the invitations or send a flower basket to the meaning, but the red invitation in front of him couldn't help but let him pay attention to it.

Because, the famous Yongsheng was established in later generations. (To be continued......)
