Don't be traumatized by bitterness

Don't bother finding the truth

The state of the world is not as good as it should be

You have to go straight too

Success takes hard work

……”

In Alan Tam's slightly youthful singing, Shen Chong sat cross-legged on the sofa in the living room, holding a magazine and flipping through it, while Zhang Aijia half-leaned on him, holding a newspaper, and reading a movie review softly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"This "Love at Dawn" is like a biluochun brewed in a glass cup, pleasing to the eye, pure in taste, fresh and elegant, and endless aftertaste......"

"This must be an advertorial written by an acquaintance."

Zhang Aijia asked without raising her head: "What is an advertorial?" ”

"Soft is the softness of nephrite's warm fragrance." Shen Chong nodded her smooth forehead with his hand, and said with a smile: "Advertorials are articles that specifically please women. ”

"Nonsense!" Zhang Aijia sneered, threw away the newspaper, and the whole person squeezed into his arms, complaining: "Yesterday you asked me to promote my movie, you are good, you went to talk about what Taiwanese romance films are outdated and old-fashioned, and now it's okay, three newspapers in Hong Kong have published film reviews, and the rest are either about your investment in the mainland, or about you looking down on Taiwanese movies." ”

"How could I have said that I look down on Taiwanese movies?"

"There are no other movies in Taiwan except romance films, and if you look down on romance movies, you look down on Taiwanese movies."

"There are still war movies in Taiwan."

"Compared with the war films in the mainland, Taiwan's war films are like children's plays, whether it is the scene or the scale, they are far behind, and they are not as competitive as romance films."

"Then there is no way, if you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse, Taiwan's current romance movies are really very earthy, bloody and boring, I just told the truth."

"You are the chairman of the jury of the Academy Awards, how can you talk nonsense!"

These are the words of last night's interview, which has just been broadcast on "Daily Film......

Shen Chong smiled, he put down the magazine, turned off the tape recorder, lowered his head and asked, "Are you knocking on the side?" ”

Zhang Aijia looked up at him, her eyes fluttered, and she asked rhetorically, "What do you say?" ”

"It should be no problem for you to be nominated for Best New Director at next year's Academy Awards, but it will be very difficult to win the award."

"How hard is it?"

"The winning rate is probably no more than 10%, there are too many new directors this year, and they are all great people." Shen Chong played with the tips of her hair and said mercilessly: "Not to mention Taiwan and the mainland, just Hong Kong, Weng Weiquan's "Rules of Conduct", Fang Yuping's "Father and Son Love", Tan Jiaming's "Famous Sword", are all highly praised, and it is only August now, and there are still many new directors coming out in the remaining four months, "Love at Dawn" has a simple plot, and the director has little room to play, if you want to win the award, it is even more difficult." ”

Zhang Aijia was stunned for a while when she heard this, and then gritted her teeth and said fiercely: "When "Love Breaks at Dawn" is launched, I will go to the crew of "Golden Branches and Jade Leaves", and I must make a good movie this year!" ”

"It is basically impossible for a Huangmei drama film like "Golden Branches and Jade Leaves" to win an acting award."

"I signed a contract with China Film, I must shoot this drama, and when the filming is over, I will pick a good book."

"You're working hard."

"Who made you make the trophy so beautiful!" Zhang Aijia was tired of being crooked with him, and said angrily: "Also, why do you always invest in newcomers as directors, so you can't invest in a few old guys to film?" ”

"Who watches the old guy filming? You take a look at the box office summary of last week's movie published in "Ming Pao", Zhang Che's "Iron Flag Gate" was released for a week, and the box office was less than 1 million, ranking outside the top 20, the hero is twilight, it is sad, I think he will be given a lifetime achievement award next year. ”

"Newcomers are not necessarily very good, the Tsui Hark you value very much, his "No Gate to Hell" not only did not do well at the box office, but was also scolded for being mad, and he has gone crazy for being different."

"The word 'door' may not be popular this year, and anyone with a door in the name of the film will be unlucky."

"No Gate to Hell" is Tsui Hark's second film, released in early April 1980, just in time for the Academy Awards, in addition to the award ceremony, there are various seminars, fan exchanges and other activities, Tsui Hark is a big bull, Shen Chong of course wants to hold a hand, so he specially held a "Hell No Gate" viewing exchange meeting, but unfortunately this movie is too cruel and dark, the style and ideas are very different from traditional mainstream movies, whether it is fans or industry insiders, it is not highly evaluated.

In the early years of the New Wave of Hong Kong films, almost all the participants had cynical thoughts, resulting in an extreme and bizarre film style, which was incompatible with mainstream culture, resulting in a very average box office and word-of-mouth, but on the other hand, these films were not only extreme and weird, but also had a lot of refreshing flashes, and even some ideas and ideas, which were still extraordinary after a few decades - "No Gate to Hell" belongs to this type of work, and its external story and inner thoughts, even in the 21st century, Still outstanding.

If it weren't for Shen Chong's interruption, Zhang Aijia probably didn't meet Tsui Hark until the Golden Horse Awards ceremony at the end of 1981, and then joined New Arts City and made many films for Tsui Hark, including the film studio's entrepreneurial work "Shanghai Nights......

By the way, Xinyicheng was almost established in August this year, and the entrepreneurial work was "Funny Times" under the pseudonym of John Woo invited from Golden Harvest, but now "Die Hard" is a global hit, John Woo is a hot celebrity in Golden Harvest, and Mai Jia should not be able to invite him......

The butterfly wings fanned wildly, completely disrupting history, I don't know what movie the new art city will make......

Shen Chong chatted with Zhang Aijia for a while, stood up and walked around the house, one went to the study, one went to the kitchen, one went downstairs, one went upstairs, walked east, looked west, like ants on a hot pot, staying in one place for less than five minutes.

"What are you doing going around and around? I was dizzy when I turned. Zhang Aijia sighed loudly and said, "If you can't stay at home, go to the company." ”

"It's really strange, when I'm busy, I always want to rest, and when I'm resting, I'm uncomfortable." Shen Chong stood at the window and observed the outside, and said: "People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and they are famous, and it is troublesome to even go out to play, and those reporters have not left yet...... Unfortunately, it's hot today, and it's not suitable to play golf. ”

"Okay, with your golf level, don't be ashamed." Zhang Aijia stood up and said, "I'll help you find a set of clothes, you go to the company, come back before 6 o'clock in the evening, and start the banquet at 7 o'clock." ”

This villa is Zhang Aijia's official residence in Hong Kong, according to custom, the joy of housewarming needs to be celebrated, on the one hand, let relatives and friends know the address, on the other hand, in order to open the social circle, but Shen Chong was not there a while ago, so he didn't do it, and now he is back, and it happens to be the weekend, so I asked a few acquaintances to have a small gathering and a dinner party in the evening.

"Forget it, it's almost 3 o'clock, what can I do with this company." Shen Chong looked at his watch and said, "I asked Vivian to send some documents over, and I will read them at home." ”

"Whatever you want."

Shen Chong then dialed the phone and instructed: "Vivian, send the list of new students recruited by the Hong Kong Film Culture Center, the opening plan of Jiayi TV and Music Channel to Kowloon Tong, and also bring the newspaper clippings of the Hong Kong film industry information in the last two months." ”

"Okay."

Apple is preparing to go public......

Atari is suing Activision Games......

Gameboy is selling in full swing......

IBM is looking for a PC operating system......

Reagan is running for president......

Shen Chong had countless businesses and things to do on the other side of the ocean, but he insisted on staying in Hong Kong and did not go to the United States until after September, only for two things.

The first thing is that the first batch of students officially recruited by the Hong Kong Film Culture Center will start classes on September 1, this is the film "Whampoa Military Academy" he created, at least show his face at the beginning of the school, say a few words, and brush up on a sense of existence - the "Hong Kong Film Art and Industry Institute", the preparatory work is far beyond expectations, this year is not finished, and it can only be listed next year, so this first batch of students still uses the brand of the Hong Kong Film Culture Center, but the teaching location has been moved to Clear Water Bay.

The second thing is that Jiayi TV will start broadcasting the music station on September 9th,Different from the low-key when the movie station opened,The music station opened with extraordinary momentum,The first program is a live broadcast of Teresa Teng and Yamaguchi Baihui jointly held a concert at the Elizabeth Stadium,When the celebrities gather,Need him, the president of Jiayi TV,Seat of the president。
