Chapter Twenty-Eight: Chen Tian Returns to His Heart

The contract between Yu Sheng and Zhang Shankun was signed quickly. However, he didn't want to be a director this time, although the job of director is the same in a crew, but if you really want to make a good movie, it is also extremely energy-consuming and time-consuming! And whether it's a movie, a song, or a running dog that takes advantage of the excitement, the rest of your life is just to accumulate money as soon as possible!

With money, there will be corresponding resources, and there will be the strength to confront the Japanese! And time is a person's most precious resource, and the rest of his life has a monstrous hatred, and these time resources are to be used against the Japanese! How can you waste a lot of money on such a thing as making a movie!

However, after repeated persuasion by Zhang Shankun and Bu Wancang for the rest of his life, he also promised Zhang Shankun that he would serve as the screenwriter and assistant director of the movie "The Great Wall Will Never Fall". Assist Bu Wancang to ensure that the movie is a big hit!

After the three of them talked and finalized the cooperation, it took a whole night. The next morning, the three of them left the restaurant. At this time, the sky was bright, and the civilians of Shanghai Beach began another day's labor! The streets were full of people who came and went in a hurry. Some of them took breakfast in their hands and walked while eating, and some of them gobbled up in the corner breakfast shop, and after eating breakfast quickly, they quickly disappeared into the crowd after dropping the meal money.

There are newsboys in the crowd selling on the street: "Watch "Yue Fei Jingzhong Serves the Country", you have the ambition to serve the country with loyalty!" ”

"Let's talk about the heart of serving the country for the rest of my life, "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" is famous on the beach!"

"Huo Yuanjia, a generation of grandmasters, will reappear on the screen and star in a mystery!"

Passers-by passed by, heard the sound of the newsboy, and there were many people who paid for it.

The song of the rest of my life yesterday cleverly superimposed the publicity of the two movies before and after. Those who know "Yue Fei Jingzhong Serves the Country" will inevitably know the new work "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" for the rest of their lives. And those who are interested in "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" will inevitably have a strong interest in the last work of the rest of his life, "Yue Fei Jingzhong Serves the Country".

And the promotion of both films can be regarded as extremely clever and powerful. Therefore, the superimposed publicity power of the two movies has become a huge social repercussion. Originally, none of the movies on the isolated island of Shanghai were flattering to the Japanese, but the Japanese and the isolated island are just a street away. Although these filmmakers are resentful, they should not be too intense, so as not to provoke a backlash from the Japanese.

But after the rest of his life, the promotion of these two films was catalyzed. In the Shanghai Tang Island movie, the ethos of "not compromising with the Japanese" has undergone a subtle change. From passive to active, it has become "resisting Japanese aggression".

As a leading movie, the box office will naturally not be bad. "Yue Fei Jingzhong Serves the Country" was released on the first day, from 8 o'clock in the morning to 12 o'clock at midnight, dozens of movie theaters on the isolated island screened "Yue Fei Jingzhong Serving the Country", but the audience did not feel bored, but the venue was full!

There is another movie that can create such a scene, Zhang Shankun still has one in his hands, but it has not been released yet. This is director Bu Wancang's "Mulan in the Army" that will be left behind for future generations. It's just that the butterfly of the rest of his life crossed over, greatly improving the quality of "Yue Fei Jingzhong Serving the Country". In contrast, "Mulan's Army" is not so conspicuous.

The day after the release, it was still the same, and there were long queues waiting to buy tickets and scalpers reselling second-hand movie tickets outside almost every movie theater!

On the third day of the release, every movie theater and every movie screen on the isolated island of Shanghai Tang will no longer show other movies! "Yue Fei Jingzhong Serves the Country" became the only movie released on the day of Shanghai Tang! And every show was attended by an astonishing 100 percent!

Such a screening, on the isolated island of Shanghai Tang, lasted for three days!

As soon as this data came out, all walks of life in Shanghai were in an uproar. "Yue Fei Jingzhong Serves the Country" has become famous since then, and the young director has been a god for the rest of his life!

As a result, various newspapers in Shanghai launched a public opinion poll on this - why do you want to read "Yue Fei Jingzhong Serves the Country"?

And those who participate in the survey can have the opportunity to get free tickets for the movie "Yue Fei Jingzhong Serves the Country".

Shanghai Tang is influenced by Western culture and is no stranger to things among pollsters. Especially this kind of investigation in the film industry. The previous movie queens were voted for by major newspapers or institutions through public opinion polls!

Zhang Zhiyun was voted for by the Shanghai New World Amusement Park in 1926 as the "Queen of Movies".

Hu Die was voted as the "Queen of Movies" by Shanghai's "Star Daily" in 1933.

Zhou Xuan was voted by Shanghai's "Shanghai Daily" in 1941 as the "Queen of Movies".

Chen Yunshang was voted for in 1940 by Qingqing Film, the largest film magazine in Shanghai.

The list goes on and on. It's a trivial task to conduct a survey.

As soon as such a survey appeared, the responders gathered. There are many people who have watched "Yue Fei Jingzhong Serving the Country" and want to watch it again. Most of the letters were not brief, and many of them recounted their own experiences, most of them refugees who had fled to the isolated island of Shanghai. Many of them were recruited for the rest of their lives as paycheck extras, or had seen the rest of their lives recruited outside refugee shelters. I have heard the enthusiastic "Loyal to the Country".

In the letter, these refugees spoke in detail about their emotional resonance when they heard "Loyal to the Country". These people use a small amount of money to buy movie tickets and go to the cinema to watch a movie, and their movie-watching ** and emotions finally converge into only one reason - national hatred and family hatred!

For human beings, hatred is often the driving force that trumps all other needs! Up to now, there are millions of refugees on the isolated island of Shanghai, and the box office supported by these people is naturally extraordinary! Moreover, refugees are not all poor, and many bring their long-accumulated wealth to Shanghai and settle down here. Although I dare not say that I am rich, I have no problem watching a movie once in a while.

Such an attendance rate and an astronomical increase in the box office allowed Zhang Shankun's investment to be fully recovered within two days of the film's release. A week after the movie was released, Yu Sheng found that he used 8% of the movie's dividend to offset the transaction of 10,000 Yinyang, which was really a big loss, because the 8% dividend rose to 6,000 Yinyang within a week. And the momentum of the box office rise has not weakened in the slightest.

A month after the release of "Yue Fei Jingzhong Serving the Country", Sassoon personally withdrew 20,000 oceans from Xinhua Company. For the rest of his life, facing such an extremely shrewd businessman, he felt powerless to complain. He ended up paying more for the villa than Sassoon had originally offered.

Of course, the rest of my life is lost in the east corner of the harvest. After the plan to shoot "The Great Wall Will Never Fall", with Huo Yuanjia as the main character, was reported, Chen Tian couldn't sit still.

He asked Yu Sheng: "Are you sure you want to make a movie about your ancestor?" ”

"Who is your ancestor? Does Huo Yuanjia have such a grandson as you? Yu Sheng was suspicious of Chen Tian.

"Now, I won't hide it from you. My master is Master Huo's most proud disciple, named Chen Zhenzhen! I have been practicing boxing with my master since I was a child, and when I was more than ten years old, my master was also killed by the Japanese. Before the master died, he ordered me to hide on the spot, and after practicing kung fu to the fullest, I would avenge him and the ancestor! Chen Tian was very dissatisfied with the suspicion of the rest of his life, and he did not have the slightest awareness of being caught.

There have been speculations for the rest of his life, but Huo Yuanjia has many disciples surnamed Chen, and although Chen Zhen has the true inheritance, he is only one of Huo Yuanjia's disciples. Unexpectedly, the Chen Tian in front of him turned out to be Chen Zhen, the most famous disciple of Huo Yuanjia in later film and television dramas!

Yu Sheng saw that Chen Tian was honest, so he stopped taking his words. said seriously: "Not only do I want to shoot Huo Yuanjia, but I also want to find someone who is proficient in Lost Trace Boxing to play Huo Yuanjia!" As far as I know, your last wish before the death of Huo Yuanjia Ancestor is to spread the Lost Trace Fist, so that the Chinese can learn martial arts and no longer be the sick man of East Asia, right? ”

Chen Tian heard Yu Sheng talk about this, and he was no longer indifferent, and he became excited and said, "That's right! ”

In 1909, Huo Yuanjia's master and apprentice conducted "research" in martial arts with many Japanese martial artists "based on the principle of not harming". Defeat the Japanese warriors who came to "study". Since then, "Shanghai people know more about the martial arts function of Yuanjia, if it is not spread, it is a pity".

In 1909, he established the Jingwu Gymnastics School in Shanghai. The Huo family's Lost Trace Fist was unreservedly made public to the world. However, this Jingwu gymnastics school only lasted for less than a year, and in 1910, on September 14, Huo Yuanjia died of illness.

Huo Yuanjia's dream of serving the country and the people died in just one year, which became his lifelong regret!

Yu Sheng saw that Chen Tian's emotions were aroused, so he said: "Among the people I know now, only your Lost Trace Fist is the most authentic!" Practice your best! So, I want you to play Huo Yuanjia! ”

The proposal of "......" was too unexpected for Chen Tian.

Yu Sheng ignored Chen Tian's surprise: "The pre-publicity and script of this movie are very good, and it is a movie that will be a big hit." The number of viewers who watch the movie will be calculated in 100,000 or even millions. As long as they see this movie, even if only one percent of people are interested in Lost Tracking, then there will be thousands of people who want to learn Lost Tracking! I think, I'm afraid there is no better way to help you fulfill your ancestor's last wish, what do you say? ”

Chen Tian's face was swollen with excitement, even if he was good at cultivating his qi, it took a long time before he calmed down his state of mind: "What you said is good. I've seen movies and know how influential this stuff is, but I have a question for you! Aren't you afraid of angering the Japanese by doing this? All the people who make movies in Shanghai are afraid of the Japanese retaliation, why aren't you afraid? ”

Yu Sheng said: "It's very simple, because they don't have the national hatred and family feud that I have experienced!" I'm from Nanjing, and I've been drifting in the icy river for more than ten hours! If it weren't for my wife blocking a bullet for me, I would have died! ”

"I'm not afraid of the Japanese looking for trouble for me, because sooner or later I will go for trouble with the Japanese!"

With the intuition gained from years of martial arts training, Chen Tian knew that the rest of his life was sincere. But he still had doubts about this man who lived in the villa and was accompanied by beautiful clothes. It was just a sentence in his ear for the rest of his life, which made his eyes widen suddenly.

Yu Sheng said in Chen Tian's ear: "I did the explosion of the New Asia Hotel!" ”
