Shao Yifu and Lin Qingxia both continued to watch the movie with a black face, while Zhong Chuhong covered his mouth and chuckled twice from time to time. Obviously, these three people were all thundered by Li Xuan's question just now, but as different parties, they reacted differently.

But after a while, Zhong Chuhong couldn't laugh anymore.

From the beginning to the end of the whole movie, the group of Huashan disciples in it have been thinking about quitting the rivers and lakes, and they even spent a year looking for a place to live in seclusion, wanting to escape from the disturbances of this earthly world.

quitting the rivers and lakes has become one of the most beautiful dreams in this movie.

However, soon, Huashan was tragically destroyed. Ling Hu Chong spent the night in the arms of a woman who didn't know his identity, thinking that it was his confidante. And his so-called confidante killed all his brothers, leaving only his sister crying in the rain with a push on the corpse.

The scene in the movie is so strange that it is cruel, and it is so beautiful that it is vicious, and their so-called withdrawal from the rivers and lakes has become a shattered dream at this time......

"The sea is smiling, the tide on both sides of the strait, the ups and downs are remembered with the waves; The sky is laughing, and there are tides in the world, and God knows who loses and who wins

； The rivers and mountains are smiling, the smoke and rain are far away, and the waves are sweeping away the red dust......"

With Xu Xijie's desolate singing, Ling Hu Chong buried his senior brother and his dream in the rain!

Li Xuan had faintly heard Zhong Chuhong's sobbing, but Lin Qingxia had already known the direction of the plot, but her eyes were slightly red. However, what made Li Xuan quite depressed was that Zhong Xiaoniu was lying on Lin Qingxia's shoulder and sobbing, as for his legitimate husband, he was forgotten at the moment.

"Ah Xuan, I heard that you learned music from Xu Dili?" Shao Yifu suddenly asked silently.

"Hmm." Li Xuan nodded and responded, "I have been studying intermittently with Teacher Xu for two years. ”

Shao Yifu smiled and said: "Sure enough, he is a son of a famous family, this song has both Gu Jiahui's atmosphere and Xu Qiqin's pathos, not bad." ”

"Haha, then when Ah Sam's "Smiling Proud Jianghu" album comes out, I'll send a copy to Uncle Six, please taste it in detail." Li Xuan replied with a smile.

"I can't talk about tasting, I can only appreciate it."

"To be appreciated by Uncle Six, my song must be very good!"

"Haha......" Shao Yifu laughed, pointed at Li Xuan and said: "You stinky boy, you are really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and your mouth is very big!" ”

"Didn't Uncle Sixth watch this movie, and only I, who am not afraid of tigers, can make it."

Shao Yifu sighed and said silently: "Hey! Yes, there are talented people from generation to generation, and they have led the way for hundreds of years. ”

"Dad—"

But it was Shao Weiming who was watching Shao Yifu from the side, and now he seemed to be in a good mood, so he interjected and shouted. However, perhaps because of the separation of father and son since childhood, Li Xuan always felt that Shao Weiming's "Dad" tone was very unfamiliar.

Shao Yifu turned his head and asked softly, "What's the matter?" ”

"That, Wei Ying knows that I came to Hong Kong and wants to invite us to dinner together in the evening, you see......"

"Don't go!" Shao Yifu turned his head and looked at the screen coldly, but he didn't say anything to death, and continued: "You go, I won't go." ”

"But ......"

"Nothing." Shao Yifu decisively interrupted his son's words, and said coldly: "You can go, I can't go, if I go, the Shaw family will collapse." ”

"Uh......, yes!" After Shao Weiming pondered for a while, he had to nod helplessly.

And Li Xuan, who had been eavesdropping on the side, shook his head gently, this is another record of the grievances of a wealthy family!

Speaking of Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, everyone in Hong Kong must know their grievances and grievances. And the rise of Golden Harvest, many people also know that Zou Wenhuai succeeded in taking over the inheritance of Cathay Cinemas in Hong Kong. But few people know that almost half of the theaters in the Golden Harvest Cinema Line are actually the assets of the Shaw family.

But it was not Shao Yifu who managed this asset, but his nephew Shao Weiying.

In fact, long before Shaw Yifu came to Hong Kong from Nanyang to start a business, there was a Shaw Brothers and sons film company in Hong Kong. The company has been under the supervision of Shaw's second brother, Shaw Yiren, who was commissioned by Singapore's Shaw Brothers to produce and manage Hong Kong's cinema chain. It's a pity that Shao Yiren has no ability, and his directors and actors are often snatched away by the company, and the quality of the films produced has also declined year by year, which has caused dissatisfaction among the Shaw Brothers in Singapore.

The ending is now clear, and the Shaw brothers finally sent Shaw Yifu to Hong Kong to set up their own film company. With the spin-off of Shaw Brothers & Sons' production business, it also became a company specializing in cinemas.

But how many companies specializing in cinemas have made a fortune? And since the Shaw Brothers and the Shaw Brothers separated, the two families have no economic contact, and the Shaw Brothers and Sons can only survive on those theaters and land.

On the one hand, the Shaw brothers made a lot of money to buy land and theaters everywhere, and on the other hand, the Shaw brothers and sons were running dismal and trying to maintain those dilapidated theaters in the fifties. The Shaw brothers persevered until the early seventies, until Zou Wenhuai betrayed the Shaw brothers and took over the inheritance of Cathay Cinemas.

However, Cathay's legacy, more precisely, these three or four cinemas, although the geographical location and infrastructure were first-class at that time, the number of cinemas was obviously too small to be considered a cinema chain at all.

In the end, Zou Wenhuai and Shao Weiying, the boss of the Shaw Brothers father and son, hit it off, the good cinema and the bad cinema, the less cinema and the more cinema, together become the giant in the Hong Kong cinema chain - Golden Harvest!

Now the Shaw Brothers & Sons Company runs several cinemas under Golden Harvest and makes a few movies from time to time, but these movies have nothing to do with the Shaw Brothers. Even when Shao Weiying quietly invited the director of the Shaw Brothers to film, the director's name on the subtitles had to be pseudonyms. For example, Hua Shan, who was sitting in the back row watching a movie at the moment, assumed the pseudonym Hua Yishan to help the Shaw brothers and his son film.

Of course, this is not the backing of the Shaw family father and son to the Shaw family, and it is just a self-seeking way out. As for Shao Yifu's statement that going to see Shao Weiying would make Shao Brothers collapse, there is another hidden story, and the protagonists of this secret are Shao Yifu and Shao Weiying.

Now in Shaw Brothers Pictures, the position of general manager can be said to be an empty position, and the power is firmly grasped by Shao Yifu. But before Zou Wenhuai joined Shaw Brothers, this position was a real heavy position. At that time, the general manager of Shaw Brothers Pictures was Shao Weiying.

There is a saying in China that "the youngest son and the eldest grandson are the lifeblood of grandparents", and this sentence is very suitable for Shao Weiying. It's a pity that Shao Weiying is not the youngest son, he is only the second son.

This person, who is not welcomed at home but loves movies and is talented, went to Shaw Brothers Pictures to help Shao Yifu. And Shao Yifu was also very optimistic about this nephew, and once regarded him as the best candidate for the successor of Shaw Brothers Pictures, and even entrusted him with the important position of general manager of Shaw Brothers. It's a pity that Shao Yifu and Shao Yifu have deep contradictions, how can they let their son work for Shao Yifu. In the end, Shao Weiying couldn't stand the pressure from her family, so she had to ask Shao Yifu for her resignation. And Shao Yifu lacked the help of his nephew, and he was obviously overstretched, so he had to look for talents everywhere, which led to the later joining of Zou Wenhuai and He Yichang.

It's just that Shao Yifu obviously didn't expect that Shao Weiying, who he once regarded as his successor, founded Golden Harvest with the Shaw Brothers traitor Zou Wenhuai within a few years, and also beat Shaw Brothers Pictures to lose his armor.

What the nephew did was a complete betrayal for Shao Yifu. Shao Yifu will not let go of this breath and go to see the nephew he once loved the most.

Besides, did he go to see the big traitor of the Shaw Brothers to make everyone think that it didn't matter if he betrayed the Shaw Brothers casually?

After Shao Weiming asked a few words that should not be asked, the whole scene fell silent. Shao Yifu obviously didn't want to talk anymore with a dark face, Li Xuan was happy, and then he also concentrated on watching the movie.

"Hongchen is ridiculous, infatuation is the most boring

It's okay to keep your eyes open

In this life, there is no heart, but there is nothing to disturb

I just want to get away with it for half a lifetime

When you wake up, you smile at people and forget all about it in your dreams

Sigh that it was too early to get dark

……”

With the singing of the ending song "Laughing Red Dust", the trial film of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" has finally ended. However, looking at the unusually quiet test room, Li Xuan suddenly frowned.

Why, don't these guys feel anything about this movie?

"Bang Bang!"

After three or four seconds, a series of crisp applause suddenly sounded in the testing room. Li Xuan escaped the prestige, but was extremely surprised to find that the person who applauded turned out to be Huang Zhuohan of First Pictures.

"Bang Bang Bang-"

With the first applause, soon there was a second, a third......

In a moment, the applause in the testing room rang out! Li Xuan quickly stood up and bowed halfway to the applauding crowd.

But is this a success of your own movie?

"Director Li, this movie is very good, you are simply an eye-opener for me." Huang Zhuohan was the first to step forward and smiled.

"Mr. Huang praised it falsely, and the younger generation just crossed the river by feeling the stones."

"Haha, your stone is not easy to touch!" Huang Zhuohan said with recollection: "When I first saw the film, I thought it was Hu Jinquan's "Dragon Gate Inn". Later, I slowly discovered that your "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is more gorgeous and heart-wrenching than the one! It's hard to get ......."

This time, before Li Xuan could reply, Shao Yifu smiled on the side: "Now Zhuo Han, you should have confidence in this movie, right?" ”

"Confidence, absolute confidence!" Huang Zhuohan replied with a smile.

"Uh......" Li Xuan groaned at this time, looked at the few people in front of him and said, "Sixth Uncle, Mr. Huang and Brother Wei Ming, I have a reluctant request, I hope the three of you can help." ”

“……”

As soon as Li Xuan's words came out, there was silence among several people, but after a while, Shao Yifu asked with his eyebrows: "Ah Xuan, what can you say directly." ”

"For this movie, I don't plan to hold a midnight test screening, but I want to hold a premiere in each of the three places, so ......" Li Xuan hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "So, I want to rent Uncle Six's Jade Theater, Mr. Huang's Ximen Theater, and of course, Brother Wei Ming's Lido Theater for one night a few days before the official release." ”

"No midnight show?" Shao Yifu asked in surprise.

"Hmm." Li Xuan nodded, looked at the audience in the test room and said, "Isn't this 'midnight show' enough?" ”

"Haha, I have the courage, I promised!" This time, it was Huang Zhuohan who was the first to speak, and I saw him continue: "But you'd better report the time of the Taiwan premiere to me quickly, so that I can arrange a schedule for you as soon as possible." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Huang."

"Since Zhuo Han agreed, then our father and son also agreed."

"Haha, thank you, Uncle Six, thank you, Brother Wei Ming!" Li Xuan had just finished thanking Huang Zhuohan when he heard that Shao Yifu had also accepted the matter, and he was immediately overjoyed and hugged his fists to thank him.

After Li Xuan finished talking with several theater bigwigs, he complimented each other with several other Shaw Brothers directors in the test room. Even Zhang Ce, who had a conflict with Li Xuan during filming, the two also praised each other with a smile, but Li Xuan didn't know how many sincere words he had.

was just complimenting and complimenting, but Li Xuan suddenly discovered that there were several directors who seemed to disappear as soon as the movie screening ended...... (To be continued.) )
