On October 26, 1984, the sci-fi action movie "Terminator" was released in the United States.

Chinese Theatre, 6925 Hollywood Avenue, Los Angeles, USA.

The film "Terminator" is being shown in the theater, and the attendance rate of more than 80% is enough to prove the success of this film. The ups and downs of the plot and the exciting and hot pictures make the audience immersed in it.

But there was one exception, the young Chinese in the last row, who left the theater just after the movie began. He didn't even finish the title, and the moment the production company's subtitles appeared on the screen, he got up and left, with a smug smile on his lips.

……

1 November 1984, Kai Tak International Airport, Hong Kong.

Chen Ping'an walked out of the airport with a salute, followed by a tall and mighty Westerner. This Western man is a burly man with large muscles bulging on his body, showing his majesty and strength all the time.

The Westerner frowned and kept saying in Chen Ping'an's ear: "Chen, I really don't know why you came to Hong Kong. Chen, you know, I left Brussels and even gave up my business to come to Hollywood just to make my dream come true. A few months ago, you told me that you were able to make my dream come true, but now you have taken me to the East. Yes, I love Oriental Kung Fu and worship the dragon, but I don't think that's a reason for you to break your promise.

Chen, can you tell me what your plans are for coming to Hong Kong? Chen, you see, it's far worse than Hollywood, and I don't think I can achieve my dream here. Chen, why don't you always speak? Hey, Chen, I'll talk to you again! ”

Your sister, why didn't I know in my last life, the famous action superstar Shang Geyundun was still a chatter?

Chen Ping'an stopped and looked at the other party helplessly: "Lao Shang, since you got on the plane, you haven't been talking non-stop, aren't you tired at all?" ”

"That's because I was very skeptical of my choice this time!"

"You are absolutely not wrong in your choice!" Chen Ping'an replied in the affirmative, "Lao Shang, do you still remember what I told you?" ”

Lao Shang nodded, hesitated for a moment and said in broken Cantonese: "Believe in peace and get eternal life." ”

"That's right!" Chen Ping'an smiled with satisfaction and patted Shang Ge Yundun's thick shoulder, "You have to believe me, I will definitely be able to make you an international action superstar, remember, an international superstar." Speaking of this, he kept the earth under his feet: "And this is the place where your dream begins!" ”

Shang Geyun was silent, obviously the words "international action superstar" moved him. Looking at Chen Ping'an's sincere gaze, after ten minutes of psychological struggle, Shang Geyun nodded and said, "Okay, I'll believe you again." But if I let me know in the future that you lied to me, I will definitely not let you go. ”

"There is no if, Lao Shang, even if you don't believe in yourself, you have to believe me. Your dreams will definitely come true in my hands! ”

After finishing Shang Geyundun, Chen Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief. As long as you can stabilize this guy, as for the threat of this guy...... For a soul from thirty years later, does he not know what Shang Gewenton will achieve in the film industry in the future?

In the previous life, he started from the scene notes, what lighting, props, drama, camera, assistant director, screenwriter, etc., almost did all the work in the crew, and finally at the age of thirty, he directed his own ** work, and five years later successfully became the Nth generation of cutting-edge directors, and he is also the only non-professional director.

He will never forget the last night of his last life. At that time, the investor asked him to start filming a new play, and the crew was casting. The heroine definitely doesn't have to think about it, it's the honey of investors, and the filming of a new drama is just to make a smile. However, the second female and the third daughter are all in charge of him, and many young and beautiful girls take the initiative to send them to the door to ask him for unspoken rules.

That night, a very beautiful girl who had just left school was asked by him to come to his room in the name of an interview. The girl is very smart, very cooperative and very hardworking, and the laptop in the room is playing the island country body art film, while the two are in bed for in-depth discussions.

Tragically, however, just as the discussion between the two was at its most intense, the laptop exploded. When he woke up again, he found that he had become Chen Ping'an, a Chinese-American who opened a restaurant in Los Angeles' Chinatown, and it was 1984.

Fortunately, Chen Ping'an is an orphan, his only mother died of illness three years ago, and he was only 17 years old at the time to take over the family's restaurant, from a "small open" to a small boss.

He quickly adapted to his new identity, and in the months that followed, he did several big things, one of which was to successfully turn Shang Gewenton, who came to Hollywood to pursue his dream, into his own "believer", believing that he could make him popular.

"Chen, I believe you, but can you tell me your next plan?" Coming to a strange foreign land, Shang Geyundun couldn't help but feel a little drumming in his heart.

Chen Ping'an's smile was a little cunning: "My next plan is...... Well, you lend me $3,000 first. ”

"Oh Shet! What did you say? Chen, you already owe me $1,966, 24 cents! And you promised me that I would pay me back $2,000. ”

"Then lend me another 3,000, and I'll pay you back 5,000 dollars at once in the future." Don't say no, the day before yesterday I saw you sneak out $5,000 from the Bank of Los Angeles. Don't look at me like that, this is the first step for you to become popular, within two years I will not only pay you back 5,000 dollars, but also tailor a movie for you to make a name for yourself in Hollywood, you will become one of the international action superstars, you can hear clearly that it is an international action superstar, not a Hollywood action superstar. ”

"To hell with the International!" Shang Geyun was annoyed, took out three thousand dollars and handed it to Chen Ping'an, "You'd better remember your promise, otherwise I won't let you go!" ”

His threat did not have any lethal effect in Chen Ping'an's ears. With such a big cash cow, how could Chen Ping'an plant him to death?

In the past two or three months, Chen Ping'an has been penniless, and all the expenses for food, drink, housing and transportation are borrowed from Shang Geyundun, just like the money for the air ticket this time, which is also paid by Shang Geyundun, and he has nothing now.

Well, it may not be accurate to say that there is nothing. He still has some things, but it's all in his head. After the explosion that night, he was reborn as Chen Ping'an, and he found that he had a lot of film and television dramas in his head.

Since he came from a non-academic background, his path to directing was particularly difficult. In order to make up for the shortcomings between himself and the director, in addition to the island country art films, there are also a large number of domestic and foreign film and television dramas in his computer, all of which are works from the 80s onwards, so that he can ponder the shooting techniques and uniqueness of different directors, and learn from some wonderful scenes.

And these film and television dramas, with that explosion, somehow all existed in the depths of his mind. As long as he wants, he can close his eyes and watch them one by one as if he were watching a movie. He couldn't figure out what was going on, and he didn't bother to think about it.

After collecting the money, Chen Ping'an planned to find a bank to exchange huàn into Hong Kong dollars, but as soon as he walked out of the airport, he was blocked by six people with guns.

The leader was a stout man, as strong as an ox, but he was too low, less than 160 centimeters. He held a gun in one hand and a photo in the other, blocking in front of Chen Ping'an: "You are Mr. Chen Ping'an, right?" Our boss pleased. ”

"You've mistaken someone."

The stout man picked up the photo, looked at the photo and then looked at Chen Ping'an, and said with certainty: "It's not wrong, it's you." Mr. Chen, please, our boss is waiting for you, I don't want him to wait for a long time. ”

Is this a robbery or a ticket kidnapping?

Chen Ping'an looked at Shang Geyundun, who smacked at the gun in the other party's hand, and then shrugged helplessly.

Sure enough, no matter how high the kung fu is, I'm afraid of kitchen knives!

At the critical moment, he could only rely on himself, Chen Ping'an made a simple calculation in his mind, and asked fearlessly: "Who is your boss?" ”

"You'll know when you get there."

"Lead the way!"

What makes Chen Ping'an strange is that these people's cars are quite good, one Mercedes-Benz S and one Mercedes-Benz E, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like they came for the 3,000 US dollars in his hand. The three of them escorted him to the Mercedes-Benz S, and Shang Gewenton was escorted into the Mercedes-Benz E. The two cars sped all the way and stopped when it was dark.

After getting out of the car, the stout man pointed to the Hongfu Restaurant next to him and said, "Mr. Chen, please come here, our boss is on it." ”

"What about my friend?"

"The boss only said to see you, not to see others."

Sandwiched between a stout man and two other people, Chen Ping'an walked into the Hongfu Restaurant and came to the Orchid Hall on the second floor. There were four or five people guarding the door of the Orchid Hall, none of them looking like good people. Seeing them come up, one of them opened the door and asked the stout man to take Chen Ping'an inside.

In the private room of the Orchid Hall, there are four men sitting. After the stout man walked in, he respectfully bowed to the four of them one by one, and then said respectfully: "Mr. Xiang, the dwarf cow brought people here." ”

Xiang Huayan, who was sitting in the first place, smiled and beckoned to Chen Ping'an: "You are An Zai, sure enough, there is a shadow of your old bean when he was young." Come over and let the second uncle take a look, two days ago, your old bean said on the phone that you plan to come to Hong Kong to develop, and your second uncle only knew that he actually had a big son like you, and I didn't think he could hide it. ”

Second uncle? My surname is Chen, is my cheap old bean...... Wait, why are these two so familiar? They are...... I'll it!

Chen Ping'an recognized two of the four people present, and the whole person was petrified on the spot.

Finding that Chen Ping'an looked strange, he stood on the spot, and looked at the dwarf cow with a slight frown on Hua Yan's brows: "What's the matter?" ”

The dwarf cow immediately told the airport about it, and when he heard the dwarf cow forcibly "invite" Chen Ping'an with a gun, Xiang Hua Yan was furious and raised his hand with a big mouth: "Bastard, what did I tell you in the first place!" I asked you to pick you up at the airport and invite Andy here, when did you say that you used a gun! If Andy is scared out, see how I clean you up! ”
