Chapter 118 - Propaganda in Hong Kong
Ask for recommendations, ask for collections, ask for support!
……
Xu Guanwu was sleeping Zhengxiang, and in a daze, he heard the sound of someone crying in his ear.
He raised his eyelids and saw Zhao Yazhi wiping tears while watching.
"Ah Zhi, why are you crying?" Xu Guanwu couldn't help but ask.
"Ah Wu, Wanlu is so pitiful." Zhao Yazhi said while crying.
Xu Guanwu raised his eyes and looked at the screen, and saw that the movie was playing the scene where Lin Qingxia, Qin Han, and Qin Xianglin were entangled.
Although Lin Qingxia is married to Qin Han, she still has no feelings for Qin Xianglin in her heart. And Qin Xianglin also couldn't let go of his admiration for Lin Qingxia, even if she was married to a wife, he still pestered her in every way.
Qin Han also had a deep love for Lin Qingxia and resolutely refused to let go. Lin Qingxia was forced to be sandwiched between the two, swaying from side to side like a pendulum, making both men crazy for her.
Where is the plot of the movie, this is clearly a portrayal of the feelings of the three in reality.
However, if the roles of Qin Han and Qin Xianglin on the screen are reversed, it will be even more perfect.
When Xu Guanwu thought of this, he couldn't help but snort, and then he felt a sharp pain in his waist.
"People are crying so sadly, do you still want to laugh?" Zhao Yazhi said angrily.
Xu Guanwu was extremely wronged, but he couldn't explain it clearly, so he had to bow his head and admit his mistake.
In the next 20 minutes, as the love affair between the three on the screen heated up, the entire theater almost became a sea of tears, and all female audiences did not cry.
Qiong Shao really knows how to abuse his heart too much, and uses such a bloody love triangle to mobilize all the emotions of the audience.
Seeing Lin Qingxia swaying painfully between Qin Han and Qin Xianglin, the audience would cry; Seeing that Qin Han didn't think about Lin Qingxia's tea, the audience would cry; Seeing Qin Xianglin emaciated for Yi, the audience will also cry......
to Zuihou, as Qin Han fell from the scaffolding and died because of a trance, the film reached a new climax......
And the crying in the cinema is also at its maximum......
Xu Guanwu really admired Ms. Qiong Shao's writing skills, a bloody love triangle, and it was written in her pen that was lingering, full of ups and downs, and exciting......
This kind of emotion is described to the extreme, and its appeal is infinite.
In later generations, there are two people's works that have been performed on TV for a long time, one is Jin Yong's martial arts masterpiece, and the other is Qiong Shao's aiqing novel.
As Lin Qingxia repeated the sentence "I am a cloud", the film finally came to an end......
"Ah Zhi, the movie is over, let's go." Xu Guanwu stood up and said.
"Well, Ah Wu, if you were Wanlu, which one would you choose, Gu Youlan or Meng Qiao?" Zhao Yazhi asked while wiping her tears.
"I choose Zhaopei." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.
"Phew!" Zhao Yazhi took a sip, knowing that Xu Guanwu was not serious again.
"Ah Zhi, it's better to watch less of Qiong Shao's movies in the future, and it's easy to be stunned if you watch too much." Xu Guanwu accompanied Zhao Yazhi and said as she walked out.
"How could it be, bluff less." Zhao Yazhi said with a smile.
"Her aiqing is too unrealistic, the aiqing of the hero and heroine is too illusory, for aiqing can abandon everything regardless of it, it seems to be vigorous but it is actually the most selfish." Xu Guanwu said with a smile, "No matter how beautiful Aiqing is, Zuihou still has to go into the kitchen and deal with pots and pans, firewood, rice, oil and salt." The highest state of love is not to be vigorous, but to withstand the dull years. ”
"Love is to be able to withstand the dull passing years?! This sentence is beautiful! Zhao Yazhi muttered to herself, "Ah Wu, you are really knowledgeable!" ”
"Praise me again, I forbid to boast." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.
Zhao Yazhi saw his proud look, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
……
Within a week of its release, "I Am a Cloud" has exceeded 1.5 million at the box office, setting a record for Taiwanese literary films in the Hong Kong film industry.
"Big brother, if you let Lin Qingxia, Qin Han, and Qin Xianglin come to Hong Kong to do some promotion, I believe there will be new growth at the box office." Xu Guanwu proposed to his eldest brother Xu Guanwen.
"After the movie "I Am a Cloud" was released, it did win the box office and word of mouth. These three actors also have a lot of fans in Hong Kong, and I believe that if some activities are held, they will attract more fans' attention. Liang Shuyi, the manager of Brilliant Cinemas, also suggested.
"In that case, let's call and ask and coordinate the time." Xu Guanwen saw that the second brother and Manager Liang agreed with this matter, so he nodded in agreement.
Xu Guanwu immediately called the other side of the strait and asked Chen Lihua, who was in charge of supervising the issuance, to convey the thoughts of the Hong Kong company.
After Chen Lihua received the order, she quickly communicated with Qiong Shao.
Qiong Shao has been very prosperous recently, "I Am a Cloud" made her salted fish reborn and make a comeback, and within a week of its release in Taiwan, the box office has exceeded 10 million New Taiwan dollars, not only paying off old debts but also making Qiong Shao make a small profit.
At the same time, the big hit of "I Am a Cloud" also made Qiong Yao's novel copyright appreciate, and what is even more commendable is that it rekindled Qiong Yao's confidence in herself.
"Mr. Xu wants to invite Lin Qingxia, Qin Han, and Qin Xianglin to go to Hong Kong to do propaganda together?" Qiong Yao was stunned when she heard this proposal, "They have all been robbed by other companies to make movies now, I think it's very difficult to see them, where is the time to go to Hong Kong?" ”
Lin Qingxia, Qin Han, and Qin Xianglin were originally popular movie stars in Taiwan, and "I Am a Cloud" had just been completed, and they were immediately snatched up by other film companies.
Qiong Yao originally wanted to invite them to go south to do some publicity activities, but after looking for a few days, they didn't find a figure, and I heard that they were caught by the film and television company on the mountain.
Chen Lihua couldn't help but be disappointed when she heard this, "Isn't it possible to contact them?" ”
"No, Qin Han and Lin Qingxia were both taken to the mountain, don't think they will come down if you can't finish the movie. Qin Xianglin is still in Taipei, but he is also detained in the crew, and he will never be released until the filming is finished. Joan shook her head.
In Taiwan, movie stars with box office appeal are all golden bumps, and once they are grabbed by the crew, they can't leave without finishing the filming. These movie stars are supervised 24 hours a day, and sometimes they are not even allowed to go home to take a shower and change clothes.
"In that case, it would be a pity." Chen Lihua sighed in frustration.
"What if...... How about asking Wu Dun to come out? When we were filming "I Am a Cloud", didn't there also the underworld come to make trouble and rob the actors, but they were all beaten away by him? Joan hesitated for a moment, then proposed.
Chen Lihua thought for a while, "If I ask them to help, will it make things bigger?" ”
"Maybe not, Wu Dun has robbed it many times, so he should have experience." Joan wagged her hand.
Chen Lihua nodded, and after leaving Qiong Yao's house, she immediately found Wu Dun.
……
Wu Dun has also been more prosperous recently, although his investment in "I Am a Cloud" only accounts for 20%, but there are millions of NT$ in income afterwards, plus the share of the cinema chain and the copyright of Nanyang, there is at least NT$15 million in income.
With such a large amount of money, he can do a lot of things, such as recruiting troops, buying arms, and opening a church......
Being able to make so much money, Wu Dun naturally had more respect for Xu Guanwu, and after listening to Chen Lihua's words, he immediately shouted, "Three cannons, call Brother Qi, follow me up the mountain!" ”
"Wait!" Zhang Anle waved his hand and asked all the excited younger brothers to sit down, "As far as I know, Lin Qingxia and Qin Han were invited away by the people of the Northwest Gang, you took so many people to rob them, do you want to start a war with them?" ”
"Fight to fight, I'm afraid of him as a bird! The territory of the Northwest Gang is in Kaohsiung, and the so-called strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, not to mention that our Bamboo Union Gang is not a snake, but a dragon. Wu Dun shouted.
"Don't be impulsive, it's better to talk about this matter, talk to them first, and borrow it for two days or three days. If you don't agree, it's never too late to do it. Others in the province also say that our Bamboo Union Gang does not talk about morality and bullies people. Zhang Anle waved his hand.
Wu Dun heard it and felt that there was some truth, so he nodded.
