Chapter 257: "Shanghai Night" Midnight Scene

After the news of Han Jin's ban was reported, Hong Kong public opinion was in an uproar, believing that this move by the Taiwan authorities was really perverse. Han Jin was originally a victim of the kidnapping case, and the Taiwan authorities not only failed to do justice for him, but turned around and blocked him.

And the originally very inspirational songs "My Future Is Not a Dream", "True Hero", and "I Believe" are also listed as banned songs and are strictly forbidden to be sold and sung, which is really a speechless thing.

Hong Kong's major media outlets are upset about Han Jinming, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand...... The media of many countries are also paying attention to this matter, believing that it is really a rather ridiculous thing for the Taiwan authorities to use Han Jin as a scapegoat.

In particular, in Japan, where Han Jin is the most popular, the media sneered at the Taiwan authorities. thinks that they are not capable of fighting the underworld and eliminating evil, but they can only sprinkle their grievances on a singer, which is really bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, and has no responsibility, which is extremely hateful.

Japanese fans even organized a huge support club for Han Jin, expressing sympathy and concern for his kidnapping, and expressing extreme indignation at his banning.

Seeing the support of media and fans from all over the world, Han Jin naturally felt very happy. However, he also knows that the more encouragement people give him now, the more the Taiwan authorities will hate him.

Because a defeated general like it has always been stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat. If everyone doesn't react to this matter, after a while, the whole thing gradually subsides, and Han Jin finds someone to dredge it, and the matter is almost over.

However, now that it has been reported so much by public opinion in various countries, the Taiwan authorities are bound to have a rebellious mentality. When the time comes. Things are frozen there, and they will be even more difficult to deal with in the future.

Therefore, no matter how much Han Jin hates the Taiwan authorities, he can only quickly run out to extinguish the fire and say good things for the Taipei police who "heroically saved people", and said that the ban on the song may be just a misunderstanding, and he himself has not received the notice of the ban, and hopes that everyone will stop spreading falsehoods.

Just when Han Jin was actively extinguishing the fire, some media in Hong Kong began to sing about him. The last time fans took drugs, these media were dealt with by Han Jin's crisis public relations before they had time to do their best. Now it's so easy to run into this blockade. Why don't they hurry up and seize the opportunity?!

For the singing of these media. Han Jin did not respond. Because now he knows that anything he says will be distorted by those media, and they will use themselves to win publicity. And the only thing that can keep them shut up is to continue to create quality work themselves. Slap them in the face with your own good grades.

……

July 1st. Directed by Xu Ke. Starring Zhang Aijia, Han Jin, and Ye Qianwen, the film studio's pioneering work "Shanghai Night" was officially screened at midnight.

Han Jin, as one of the leading actors, naturally attended.

This time, it is likely that it is because of himself. This movie could not be released in Taiwan, so when he met Xu Ke, Han Jin felt very sorry.

"I'm sorry, Director Xu, it's likely that I've affected you this time because of me." Han Jin said guiltily.

"Don't blame yourself, Ah Jin. This matter is none of your business in the first place, but the gang of the Taiwan authorities are really too idle and bored. Xu Ke also said with a sullen stomach.

When the movie was released, I learned that the film had been banned in Taiwan, which made Xu Ke feel very depressed. lost Taiwan's box office, but it really cost him a lot.

You must know that the reason why he chose Zhang Aijia and Ye Qianwen, two Taiwanese, for this film is to hope that this film can achieve a high box office in Taiwan. Unexpectedly, this hope is all in vain now, but he also knows that this is not about Han Jin, and in the final analysis, it is just the incompetence of the Taiwan authorities.

"Ah Jin, don't worry, I know a lot of officialdom people in Taiwan, and I can help you dredge up with them." Zhang Aijia smiled and comforted.

Her maternal grandfather, Wei Jingmeng, known as Wei Sanye, served as a national policy adviser to the "Presidential Palace" and was a favorite of Chiang Ching-kuo's side.

"Thank you, Sister Zhang~" Han Jin nodded and said.

"Ah Jin, you weren't hurt anywhere, were you?" Li Lizhen also walked over to him and asked.

knew that Han Jin had been kidnapped, and it scared her a lot.

"No, there are no injuries at all, don't you see that I am standing in front of you completely?" Han Jin waved his hand.

"Whew, so I'm relieved." Li Lizhen nodded and smiled.

Han Jin also smiled slightly, "By the way, how did your "Happy Ghost" go?" Are my classmates okay? ”

"Well, the shooting has been completed, and now we are working on the post-production." Li Lizhen said with a smile, "Your classmates are very good, especially Wu Qiwei, who is so handsome and gentle, and has fascinated many little girls." ”

Hearing her say this, Han Jin couldn't help laughing.

Tian Qing, Hu Feng and other old actors who have cooperated with Han Jin in the play also stepped forward to encourage him a few words, telling him not to take the ban to heart, he still has to look forward as a person, and the momentary gains and losses are not important. Han Jin was also very moved.

"Alright, everyone, it's time for the opening, let's go in first." Shi Nansheng said with a smile.

Everyone nodded, went to the cinema together, and sat down on the second floor.

The midnight screening system is a distinctive initiative of Hong Kong films in the 70s and 80s, which is not at all in other places.

The midnight show refers to the one that will be screened after half past eleven in the evening. A week before the official release of the film, a midnight preview will be held to test the audience's reaction.

Because the audience who is willing to watch the movie after half past eleven must be movie lovers, and they can basically represent the taste of the general public.

If a movie gets a good response at midnight screening, it usually does well at the box office. On the contrary, if the audience scolds their mothers during the test screening, then the movie can only be re-edited to cater to the audience's tastes.

Wang Jiawei's "The True Story of A Fei" was scolded for being bloody when it was screened at midnight. There are even strong men who stop at the door of the movie theater, claiming that the movie is a fraud and preventing the audience from entering the theater to buy tickets. Sure enough, "The True Story of A Fei" failed miserably at the box office. caused investor Deng Guangrong to vomit blood and be hospitalized.

The midnight screening system has not only played a certain role in promoting Hong Kong films, but it has also objectively made Hong Kong films more and more routine, patterned, and strict in following the trend.

In order to cater to the audience's tastes, producers and directors often make commercial films in one go, especially like to follow the trend and imitate the most popular themes at the moment, which makes Hong Kong films more and more impoverished, the content more and more similar, and the plots more and more old-fashioned. Finally, one day the audience will get tired of watching. Hong Kong films have also fallen into a great recession.

……

After Han Jin and the others sat on the second floor, the movie officially began to be screened.

Because the play "Shanghai Night" is the pioneering work of the film studio, Xu Ke also attaches great importance to this film, which can be seen from the beginning of the movie.

Xu can use laser technology. The words "Shanghai Night" were typed on a sparkling water. Quite peculiar. It immediately attracted the attention of the audience.

The first few minutes of the movie are not very exciting, and the main thing is to introduce the background of the movie.

In 1937, Japan attacked Shanghai. The bombers have all come, but the French Concession is still full of singing and dancing, singing and laughing, bright lights, wine and meat forests.

The clown played by Han Jin is not angry that the country is invaded, so he plans to join the army to fight against the Japanese invaders. As a result, he was bombed by a plane on the way to join the army, and fell to the bottom of the stone bridge with Zhang Aijia, and thus had a relationship.

The two sides agreed that after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, they would also come to meet under the bridge, and the result was ten years.

This paragraph is not very brilliant, neither funny nor bloody, but it makes people feel a little depressed, so the audience in the cinema did not react very well.

However, when Han Jin and Zhang Aijia kissed each other, there was still a scream downstairs.

"The old cow eats the tender grass!" One person screamed exaggeratedly, which immediately caused the audience to burst into laughter.

When Zhang Aijia heard this, her face immediately turned red with shame, and she was also very angry. She's only thirty-one years old this year, so how can she be considered an old cow?!

Han Jin saw that she was short of breath and her nose and eyes were about to erupt fire, so he hurriedly smiled and persuaded, "Sister Zhang, don't care about these mediocre people's boring statements. You are a real beauty, with poetry and books, how can these laymen appreciate your beauty? ”

When Zhang Aijia heard him say this, she suddenly felt much more comfortable in her heart, "It's still Ah Jin, you can speak~"

"Because what I say is from my heart~" Han Jin said with a smile.

The next clip is much funnier, Han Jin stupidly carried a large tuba on his back, and smashed it down from time to time to cover the foreman's head. This paragraph has the meaning of Chaplin's meme, which makes the audience laugh out loud.

Then Ye Qianwen appeared, wearing a pair of eyes and looking like a silly country girl. Although he is dressed old-fashioned, it is difficult to hide his pretty face and clear eyebrows.

After Ye Qianwen appeared, she kept laughing.

Hong Kong directors like to use smart people to play stupid to make people laugh, Huang Baiming in "Happy Events in the Family" and "Happy Events in the Ninety-Seven Family", let Zhou Xingchi play the idiot twice in a row to be funny; Wang Jing also made Zhou Yan stupid in "God of Gamblers" to be funny; In "The Legend of Deer and Ding", Wu Mengda is made crazy to be funny; In the "Five Lucky Stars" series, Wu Yaohan's character has been chattering......

Because the trick of smart people pretending to be stupid will make the audience think "this person is even more stupid than me", and a feeling of "cool" will arise spontaneously.

And in this movie, Han Jin and Ye Qianwen are a little stupid.

Han Jin plays a straightforward young man, while Ye Qianwen is a country fool with no knowledge, only Zhang Aijia's EQ is slightly better, but she is also a poor worm who is tricked.

When the three of them get together, it is naturally all kinds of bad luck and all kinds of funny.

Zhang Aijia performed on stage in a bottomless costume; Ye Qianwen went to the kindergarten to apply as a teacher, but she was stripped naked in a daze; Han Jin easily saved enough water to take a bath, and was peeped at by Zhang Aijia and Ye Qianwen......

Although these jokes are not as hilarious as "Best Partner" and "Five Lucky Stars", they are also interesting, and the audience laughs constantly.

Seeing the audience's good response, Xu Ke finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this "Shanghai Night" was passed.

After experiencing a series of ridiculous things, Ye Qianwen fell in love with Han Jin, and Han Jin never forgot the woman who had an appointment under the bridge ten years ago. Although Zhang Aijia also wanted to find the man who had an appointment with her under the bridge ten years ago, she was always wrong, and she and Han Jin never recognized each other.

In the end, Ye Qianwen won the honor of the queen of the calendar in a daze and won a huge bonus. That night, Han Jin and Zhang Aijia finally knew that each other was the person they had been looking for for ten years, and they couldn't help but hug each other intimately.

In the last **, Han Jin rushed to the train to confess to Zhang Aijia, and the movie sounded the "Evening Wind" created by Han Jin at the right time. Ye Qianwen's sweet singing voice, coupled with the songs made by Han Jin, and the rich classical style of Shanghai Tang, make the audience feel as if they have returned to thirty or forty years ago.

And at the end of the film, a country girl who looks like Ye Qianwen (in fact, she is her) got off the train, she was dressed as rustic as Ye Qianwen, and she also had a confused and novel expression on her face. implies the director's interpretation of "reincarnation".

Ye Qianwen encouraged her a few words, because when she first came, she was as naïve and naïve as her. But in the past few days, she has grown up a lot and is much more sensible.

After the film was screened, the audience burst into warm applause.

Han Jin, Xu Ke and others also appeared on the theater stage together to thank all the audience who were present today. (To be continued!)
