Chapter 146: Midnight Field
Returning to the company with a daze, Xu Guanwu immediately called Liang Shuyi over.
She is the manager of Brilliant Cinema Line and the operator of this batch of buildings, so she should have some understanding of the situation of the building.
"Miss Liang, what do you think Zheng Yutong is looking for me?" Xu Guanwu told him about seeing Zheng Yutong today, and then asked Miss Liang Shuyi's opinion.
"Hard to say! Zheng Yutong is a veteran of business, starting from scratch until now, he has long pondered a seven-trick heart, and it is difficult to guess his thoughts. Liang Shuyi was embarrassed.
"Do you think he's going to do it for those 20 commercial office buildings?" Xu Guanwu threw bricks and said, "This is the only thing I can think of, the reason why he came to contact me." ”
Liang Shuyi shook her head, "Stanley, Zheng Yutong is nicknamed Shark Guts, and he acts extremely boldly and often surprises. I can't figure out why he's looking for you. ”
"Have there been any recent changes to our building? For example, has the surrounding land prices soared, and has the government built a new jihua? Xu Guanwu asked with a frown.
"Stanley, I haven't heard of this for the time being. Recently, however, it has been rumored that the government will set up a MTR company to build an underground railway in Hong Kong and Kowloon. Our buildings are located in the downtown area, most likely next to the subway station, so our property prices will definitely go up wildly. Liang Shuyi's eyes lit up.
"But until the government announces it, it's very secret, so it's hard for us to know. However, I think that with Zheng Yutong's status, it is likely that he already knew the news in advance. Liang Shuyi boldly guessed.
"Maybe so, as long as he doesn't have a showdown for a day, our speculation will never be confirmed." Xu Guanwu sighed and said, "He also asked me to go golf with him after the award ceremony, I think maybe he will say it then." ”
"He told you to go golf?!" Liang Shuyi was taken aback, "Stanley, you must grasp this opportunity, this is a great opportunity for you to step into high society." ”
"What do you mean, isn't it just playing?" Xu Guanwu asked suspiciously.
"It's not just about playing, rich Chinese businessmen like Li Ka-shing, Ho Hongshen, Zheng Yutong, Guo Desheng, Li Zhaoji and other wealthy Chinese businessmen often get together to play, and by the way, they even talk about business together." "It is rumored that they are a golf club and a leader of Chinese investment in Hong Kong. ”
"Oh?! Are so many people playing together? Xu Guanwu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, these people will be the top rich people in Hong Kong in the future, and the whole Hong Kong will tremble if they stomp their feet.
If you can take this opportunity to get in touch with them, you won't have to worry about money in the future.
"By the way, Stanley, director Zhang Jian's "Queen of Temple Street" has been completed, when are you going to release it?" Liang Shuyi asked.
"Is it finished? Then arrange a midnight test screening first to see how the response is, and if not, see if you can change it. Xu Guanwu nodded.
Liang Shuyi agreed, and turned back to make arrangements.
……
On the day of the midnight test screening of "Queen of Temple Street", Xu Guanwu also rushed to the show, and he was pleased that there were many people who bought tickets, and the theater attendance rate reached eighty percent.
Such a surging flow of moviegoers also attracted several reporters to interview, and the scene was very hot.
News also came from the other two midnight test theaters, and the attendance rate was more than 70%.
"Director Zhang, judging from today's attendance, the box office of this movie must not be wrong." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.
Liang Shuyi also sighed with emotion, since the Brilliant Cinema Line changed its name to Art and Art Cinema and specialized in screening niche art films, it has never been able to have so many audiences like today.
Zhang Jian is also very excited, this film is his first work directed independently, and it is a work he wrote, directed, produced and edited by himself, and created it with one hand and one foot, which can attract so many audiences, which really makes him feel that his hard work is not in vain.
""Queen of Temple Street", I can't imagine that the name of Fengyue films is so straightforward now......"
"Yes, it's outrageous that the newspaper dares to publish such a large advertisement!"
"Will there be a hairy shot?"
"It's not going to start yet, it's almost suffocating."
……
Xu Guanwu heard the voices of the audience downstairs, and faintly felt that something was wrong, "Director Zhang, your drama is a Fengyue film?!" ”
"No, this film doesn't even have any erotic scenes, it mainly tells about the love-hate entanglement between mother and daughter." Zhang Jian explained with an embarrassed face.
Xu Guanwu nodded, he was not against Fengyue films, but if he could, he would try not to touch it.
Director Li Hanxiang was scolded vulgar because of those Fengyue films; Wang Jing supervised the production of several tertiary films, and was also scolded as a pervert......
Filmmakers, whether male or female, once they are involved in a relationship with the third level, the words are more ugly.
Xu Guanwu disdains to make money with third-level films, and naturally he is even more reluctant to be scolded because of this.
After waiting for a while, the lights in the theater suddenly dimmed, and a white light hit the screen, and the movie officially began.
After letting go of the opening credits, a large bed appeared on the screen......
Woo!
The audience downstairs immediately became excited and began to scream loudly, but as the camera panned, there was no restrictive picture, but the faces of several women sleeping with no faces facing the sky.
The screams of the audience suddenly sank, and some of them cursed casually in disappointment.
But in an instant, the women were fighting, and one of them was riding on top of the other.
"Take off her clothes!"
"Tear, tear, beat, hit!"
……
A group of men downstairs shouted passionately, but the fight lasted only a few seconds before they were persuaded to leave.
And then there is this group of women fighting over the toilet, arguing, fighting......
"Pu your aunt, we want to watch a meat show, what are you filming!"
"Damn, will the director film, make such a bad movie, and make a glamorous name to fool people!"
"Fuck it, get your ticket back! I don't look at it! ”
……
The movie was thirty minutes long, and the only scene of going to bed was cut, which made the audience below very dissatisfied and stood up and shouted.
The audience who waited for a long time and couldn't see the glamorous footage completely broke out, a group of people ran to the ticket office and shouted for a refund, and a group of people broke down chairs and smashed boards in the theater to vent, almost a mess.
Liang Shuyi was also frightened, and hurriedly sent people to maintain order.
I have been on the midnight show for more than half a year, and I haven't encountered such a chaotic situation.
Zhang Jian heard the scolding, and the person was already frozen there.
"How so...... How so......" he muttered incessantly.
Xu Guanwu finally understood why he felt inappropriate just now, the audience who came to the midnight show today clearly watched this drama as a tertiary film, no wonder it was all male audiences.
Alas! It's all because this film is too famous, where is "The Queen of Temple Street", it is clearly "Mother and Daughter in Distress"!
……
Under the coordination of the theater staff, these troublesome audiences were finally sent away, but the loss of the theater was also huge.
Dozens of seats were dismantled, and even the chair surfaces were cut with knives and had to be replaced.
And in order to appease the anger of those audiences, they also have to give away some coupons, so that they can save a few cents next time they watch the film.
But fortunately, there were no casualties, which is a great blessing in misfortune.
After all the audience scolded and left, Xu Guanwu hurriedly sent someone to frame Zhang Jian.
He froze in his chair, his clothes were soaked, and he looked like he was stupid.
