Chapter 518: Happy Events Are Coming
The 13th Hong Kong International Film Festival began, as a grand event for Hong Kong films and even the whole of Hong Kong, the attention of the media is naturally not the general enthusiasm, the second day of the opening ceremony, the newspaper is full of all kinds of news about the opening ceremony, and the dizzying beauties are the focus of it, so that the two opening films of the film festival have been snubbed by the media a lot.
Although it is only as the opening film, it will be released for one day, but "New Dragon Gate Inn" and "Ghost Love" have been recognized by fans and professionals, Hong Kong's most authoritative film magazine "Film Fortnightly" editor-in-chief Shu Qi (this Shu Qi is not Shu Qi) said in an interview with reporters: "Both films are very good films, first talk about "New Dragon Gate Inn", this film is adapted from "Dragon Gate Inn" filmed by Hu Jinquan in 67, there are many similarities in the storyline, but in terms of artistic value, ", " "New Dragon Gate Inn" is undoubtedly much bigger, first of all, the film's starring Zhang Manyu, Liang Jiahui and Lin Qingxia's performances are very good, portraying the characters well, and every audience who watched the film can leave a deep impression on the three protagonists is the best proof; Secondly, in terms of the story, bearing and character setting, the film has made a breakthrough on the basis of following the traditional martial arts system. ”
"Finally, it is the application of shooting techniques and computer special effects, which is different from the new martial arts films with fantasy colors such as "Storm and Clouds", in essence, "New Dragon Inn" is still a traditional martial arts film, but the feeling presented to the audience is different from that of traditional martial arts films, which is the difference in shooting techniques and the application of computer special effects. These two aspects can provide reference for future martial arts films. ”
"In terms of artistic value, "New Dragon Gate Inn" can be called the pinnacle and innovation of Hong Kong's traditional martial arts films, and will surely open up a new world of martial arts films. As for the box office. I'm also optimistic that good movies are not limited to the artistic level, and the audience's eyes are bright. ”
"Let's talk about "Ghost Love", which is a part of a fantasy romance film that tells a very poignant love story, and to be honest, I almost cried when I watched this film. I've watched a lot of touching romance films, and this is the first time I've felt this way. ”
"From the perspective of story structure, "The Love of People and Ghosts" tells just a very ordinary love story of life and death. But Chen Shao was able to set the development of the story in a unique marginal area - between the yin and yang worlds. Therefore, this film has become a ghost film and a fantasy film. In the film, the heroes and heroines love each other hard, but they can't see each other because of the separation of yin and yang, and it is with the help of ghosts and ghosts that a series of suspense and twists and turns of the plot are generated. The audience is immersed in the unreal and the real. Sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes inspired by justice, and finally moved by the protagonist's unswerving love. ”
Of course, the success of a film is not only the storyline, the actors are also the key, and a wonderful performance can add three points to a film, Zhong Chuhong and Liang Chaowei are like this, they fully express the kind of emotions that are meant to be reflected in the script. Their crying and laughing, even just one look can make the audience deeply infected. Needless to say, Zhong Chuhong has superb acting skills, an actor with absolute beauty and strength, and there are very few actresses in Hong Kong who can compare with her. But Liang Chaowei gave me a lot of surprises, Zheng Yuling once said that his eyes can speak, I didn't believe it at the time, but now I really believe that his eyes can really speak. ”
"I dare to guarantee that this film will become a classic, and after the official release of the film, I personally recommend that anyone who has time can go and watch it, and I guarantee that you will not be disappointed."
Shu Qi's rating made many viewers who missed it regret it, and most Hong Kong people still recognize the authority of "Movie Biweekly", but now if you want to watch it, you can only wait for the film to be officially released after the film festival is over, and you can't help but wait for a while.
Among the many news about the film festival, there is another piece of news that many people are interested in, that is, the first birthday of Gu Chen's daughter Gu Yachen, Gu Yachen's birthday is a well-known thing, so the media began to pay attention to it when the birthday was approaching, guessing how Gu Chen would celebrate his daughter's first birthday, whether it was a big feast, or a small celebration in his family. As the date gets closer and closer, the enthusiasm of the media attention is getting higher and higher, and some news is gradually leaking out, but as early as a few days before the start of the film festival, Gu Chen sent an invitation to relatives and friends, saying that on the evening of September 20, a birthday banquet will be held for the great-granddaughter of the Gu family in Fengyuan.
Since the invitation has been issued, it is natural to formally set up a banquet, you must know that this is the first time that Gu Fu has held a happy event, although it is only a first birthday banquet, but this first birthday banquet is unusual in the eyes of many people, as we all know, although Zhao Yazhi and Gu Chen have a de facto marriage relationship, but the two have neither registered, let alone held a banquet, so long, Zhao Yazhi just got a name, and now Gu Mansion has a tendency to hold this first birthday banquet, so many people speculate that Gu Chen wants to take this opportunity to make up for the regret of not holding a wedding banquet.
If Gu Chen really had this kind of thought, then this first birthday banquet must be very grand, so who could receive the invitation? According to the reporter's investigation, Zhang Guorong, Zhou Runfa, Mei Yanfang, Zhong Chuhong, Zhang Manyu, Liu Dehua and others who have a good relationship with Gu Chen in the entertainment industry have received invitations long before the opening of the film festival.
These people are all big brothers and sisters in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, or iconic figures among rising stars, and each of them has a place in the circle. Outside the circle, Li Jiacheng, Bao Yugang, Huo Yingdong, and Li Zhaoji in the rich world; Hong Kong Governor Wilson and Commissioner of Police Wong Mo-chung in the political circles have all received invitations. There are also many people who have received invitations overseas, but the media has not yet heard about it, but it is clear that it will not be a simple person. In this way, whether you can receive the invitation or not has become a proof of your status.
It's just that the entertainment industry is the most comparable identity, and when it comes to pomp, there is no need to say much about the disappointment of those who didn't receive the invitation, some of those who received the invitation had a good relationship with Gu Chen, and they didn't have any special feelings about receiving the invitation, because this was a matter of course; Some of them know Gu Chen, but the relationship can only be regarded as average, but they have a lot of status in the circle, these people received Gu Chen's invitation, at first it was nothing, but later it was rendered by the media, but they were very happy.
After Zhou Xingchi participated in the event held by the business, he was arranged to be interviewed by reporters: "Xingzai, you have not responded to the scandal with Zhang Meng before, but a few days ago, a reporter photographed you and Zhang Meng returning to the love nest together late at night, I don't know what you want to say." ”
"I looked at the photos taken by the paparazzi, and it was indeed a man and a woman, but I couldn't tell that it was me and Zhang Mian." Zhou Xingchi smiled, and did not completely deny his relationship with Zhang Mian: "Don't guess about my love life, I sincerely hope that you can give me a little space, you are so tight, even if there is any good news, I dare not tell you." ”
The reporter just now saw that Zhou Xingchi showed signs of relenting, and hurriedly asked: "So do you deny that you are dragging on with Zhang Meng?"
"I didn't say anything, I still said the same thing, I hope you can give me a little more space, if there is good news, you will naturally know."
Zhou Xingchi said, and made a gesture to get rid of, although he didn't deny it, but he just didn't admit it. Seeing this, the reporters are also helpless, unless they can take clear photos so that Zhou Xingchi has nothing to say, otherwise their mouths are on other people's faces, and they can't help if they don't admit it.
"Tomorrow is Miss Chen's first birthday, as the leading actor of Tang Dynasty movies, I don't know if you have received an invitation?"
A smile bloomed on Zhou Xingchi's face again: "I received it, I received it before the film festival, I am very happy to participate in Miss Chen's first birthday banquet." ”
"I don't know what gift you prepared for Miss Chen?"
"The gift has been prepared since the day I received the invitation, so I can't say what it is."
"Besides you, do you know any other insiders who have received invitations?"
"I happened to be with Da Ge when I received the invitation, so I know that Da Ge also received it, and I don't know the others, you should be better informed than me."
……
After the end of the event, the time was close to evening, Zhou Xingchi took the company's nanny car and went straight home, as soon as he entered the door, he smelled a fragrance, and when he walked to the restaurant, he saw that there were already two dishes on the table, and there was a busy figure in the kitchen.
He stepped forward, took the man in his arms, and said with a smile: "It turns out that you are cooking at home, no wonder you called and asked me what I was doing." ”
Zhang Mian had already heard the sound of the door opening, and he was not surprised to be hugged, and the small shovel in his hand continued to turn: "I just happened to come over to cook for you today, I hate it, don't touch your hands, you go outside to watch TV first, and then you can eat after a while." ”
Zhou Xingchi had no choice but to let go of Zhang Mian, and just wanted to go to the living room, he suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, tomorrow is Miss Chen's first birthday banquet, you can go with me." ”
Zhang Mian was stunned for a moment, and then said hesitantly: "I haven't received the invitation again, it's not appropriate to go." ”
"Don't worry, our relationship is known to everyone in the company, isn't it normal for you to attend the banquet with me."
Zhang Meng glanced at Zhou Xingchi, thought about it again, nodded, and said, "Okay then." (To be continued......)
