Chapter Seventy-Three: The Premiere
"I'm trying to persuade that fly to die. Zhang Le said to Huo Dongjun.
Huo Dongjun shrugged: "I do know a Taiwanese girl, but I haven't thought about it." ”
"You haven't thought about me, it's not like this now?" Zhang Lemei glared at Huo Dongjun and whispered.
"It's you who are interested in me, you don't go to bed if I sleep in the sand, you take the initiative from beginning to end, I am only responsible for ......" Huo Dongjun still wanted to laugh, but when he saw Zhang Le's eyes wide, he immediately raised his hands: "It's me who takes the initiative, I take the initiative to soak you, can you do it?"
"Count you as acquaintances. Zhang Le saw Huo Dongjun admit defeat under the offensive of his eyes, and proudly turned around and walked inside with food.
Huo Dongjun listened to Lu Fang and Zhang Le talk about Taiwanese sisters, and then remembered that he had indeed not contacted Taiwanese sister Wang Guxian for a long time, this long-legged Taiwanese sister originally wanted to become popular with the big production "The Legend of Wesley", but now that this movie is not a blockbuster, I am afraid that Taiwanese sister will not be in a good mood.
After having dinner with Zhang Le, Huo Dongjun left, and after getting in the car, he dialed Wang Guxian's phone:
"Sister Taiwan, happy Spring Festival. ”
On the other side of the phone, Wang Guxian's tone was sullen: "You only wish me a happy Spring Festival on the second day of the Lunar New Year?" and his tone was clear and ridiculous. ”
"In Taiwan?" Huo Dongjun drove in the direction of Hong Yihai.
Wang Guxian said on the phone: "Do you want to stay in Hong Kong to spend the Spring Festival alone? Of course, I will go back to Taiwan to join my family." ”
"The Legend of Wesley" is about to exceed 10 million at the box office, congratulations?" Huo Dongjun said to Wang Guxian.
"Are you deliberately angry with my ......" Wang Guxian was on the phone because of Huo Dongjun's words.
Huo Dongjun said: "I directed a drama that will be released recently, so I inform you to contribute to the box office for me." ”
"You didn't notify me when you started the play?" Wang Guxian heard on the phone that Huo Dongjun had directed a movie by himself, and his voice suddenly rose a point.
Huo Dongjun coughed and said: "The heroine is a contracted artist of the production company. ”
"You have to at least get me an audition, not to mention that my contract with Shaw Brothers has expired? Wang Guxian said on the phone.
Huo Dongjun didn't know if Wang Guxian signed in Jiahe or Xinyicheng in his last life: "Do you want to sign in my company?"
"Are you kidding?" Wang Guxian said impatiently on the phone because Huo Dongjun did not notify her of the start of work.
"Think about it, or when my first movie comes out, you'll decide which company to sign with?" Huo Dongjun said.
Wang Guxian snorted lightly: "Are you going to change careers to become a vampire agent?"
"No, but the company will definitely have an artist department in the future, and the agent will naturally have it. ”
"I still think about Golden Harvest and New Art City, I won't consider Debao, Pan Disheng who puts Debao on display wants to praise his girlfriend, if I know a tycoon, will it be easier to be famous. Wang Guxian obviously completely ignored Huo Dongjun's construction.
"When will you return to Hong Kong?" Huo Dongjun asked.
Wang Guxian said: "After spending the Spring Festival with my family, I want to audition for a Taiwanese film, hey, the starring role is Taiwanese singer Qi Qin, and his songs sell very well in Taiwan." ”
Huo Dongjun coughed vigorously a few times, and said in his heart No, Wang Guxian and Qi Qin will not start this year after more than ten years of separation, right?
"Sister Tai, I suddenly remembered that there is a new film to be opened, are you interested in coming over to audition?" Huo Dongjun said.
"When you hear that I want to start work with a singer, you want to introduce me to an audition for no reason?" Are you jealous of the singer I like?" Wang Guxian laughed and asked: "When I was in Hong Kong, I seemed to be that Lu Fang, you didn't like it very much, did you hate the man who sang?"
"Yongsheng has a drama to open, the title of the film is "Hardcover Chasing Girls", and the actress is auditioning, Wang Jing is the director, and the starring role is your old friend Zhou Run, if you don't believe it, call and ask Zhou Run. Huo Dongjun said to Wang Guxian.
"Female No. 1?" Wang Guxian was really attracted to attention, after all, Taiwanese films are completely uncompetitive compared to Hong Kong films.
"Don't think about the female number one, Zheng Yuling and Zhang Manyu have been decided, at most the female number three. Huo Dongjun said honestly.
Although the box office of "Magic Jade" is not high, Xiang Watson did not completely give up Wang Jing, but instead asked Wang Jing to make comedies that he is good at, after all, Wang Jing made a name for himself with the two urban romantic comedies "The Frog Prince" and "The Flower Heart", so after Wang Jing took out the script of "Hardcover Chasing Girls", he thought twice to Watson, and still invested money to let Wang Jing open the first comedy for Yongsheng.
Speaking of which, in the three dramas after Yongsheng changed its name, except for Huo Dongjun's "Zhongnanhai Bodyguard", whether it is McDonald's "Heroes" or "Hardcover Chasing Girls" in preparation, all of them used Zhou Run, who is a red dragon, to star.
"I'll call my brother and ask. After Wang Guxian finished speaking, he hung up the phone, Huo Dongjun touched his nose, he didn't know if he had a phone call, whether Qi Qin and Wang Guxian could meet again.
On February 17th, Golden Harvest Cinema's "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother" was ready to be painted on the whole line, and on the 28th of its release, it rolled down a record-breaking box office of 35 million, breaking the box office record of 34 million for last year's "True Colors of Heroes", and in the previous week, New Art City's "Wesley Legend" had been painted, with a box office accumulation of 18 million. With a small cost investment, it won 27 million box office, becoming the highest-grossing film since Debao set foot in the film.
And on February 17, Huo Dongjun's first film "Zhongnanhai Bodyguard" also started its midnight test screening at the Golden Harvest Cinema in Kowloon.
Hu Zhaochang, Huo Dongjun, Zhang Le, Chen Dong, Zheng Zeshi, Liu Weiqiang, Huang Baiwen, Ghost Lao Feng and other crew members were all present to receive the most intuitive feedback from the audience.
Watching the audience bite the sugar cane or hold Yu Guo into the theater, Huo Dongjun felt nervous, and Zheng Zeshi pointed out a certain figure into the theater from time to time to introduce Huo Dongjun's identity, most of them were columnists and film critics of a newspaper, or media reporters.
Film critics are the people who watch the most midnight test screenings in Hong Kong, often on the second day of a movie's midnight test screening, there will be comments about the movie, and some big newspaper film critics will point out the advantages and disadvantages of the film very fairly, and become a guide for Hong Kong citizens to watch the movie, and decide whether the new film is worth watching through guò film reviews, of course, it is not excluded that some small newspapers will collect money from the production company to sing the praises.
"The title of the film is very bluffing?
"Zhongnanhai is a border?"
"The main actors, except for the fat cat, seem to be newcomers. ”
"Look at the poster, the male protagonist is the beautiful enough killer in the evil policeman, but the heroine has never seen it, and the poster is really called. ”
Listening to the voices of the audience from time to time, Huo Dongjun felt that his palms were sweating slightly.
The last time "Evil Police Came Out" midnight test screening, Huo Dongjun was not nervous at all, because that movie was directed by Wang Kun, and he was only responsible for a small part of the work in the later stage, but this movie is different, from the water to the preparation, to the start of filming and post-production, all of which were done by Huo Dongjun himself, and it was also the first film work of his Dongyi Company.
"Don't worry, the fighting action in this drama is exciting, and with the picture shooting of the six-part machine, it will definitely sell out. ”
If you only listen to what Liu Weiqiang said to Huo Dongjun, you will feel that he is very calm, but Huo Dongjun glanced sideways at the other party, and Liu Weiqiang was wiping the sweat from his forehead from time to time.
After all the audience entered and the lights went out, the big screen began to appear Yongsheng's hgo picture, and then the picture went black, and a line of red letters appeared, filmed by Dongyi Film Company.
When filming this movie, Huo Dongjun didn't think of the design of the company's opening credits, and when the later stage was almost completed, he asked the subtitle team to help make a red subtitle.
Waiting for Dongyi's subtitles to fade, the five big characters of Zhongnanhai's bodyguard appeared on the screen, followed by Xiang Hua Xiang Watson's name appeared in the position of the producer, followed by the producer, the starring role, and finally the five words of director Huo Dongjun.
The picture lights up and the movie begins.
Two elderly people swim and chat in the pool, surrounded by bodyguards in crisp suits, and they are heavily guarded.
Suddenly, the gunshots rang out, and the picture of the bodyguard wearing a bath towel into the water to cover the departure of the two old men immediately attracted the attention of the audience, and even the voice of whispering was much less.
When Huo Dongjun kicked a bodyguard into a vehicle loaded with a bomb, and the vehicle exploded, the audience was surprised.
And when Huo Dongjun was ordered to come to Hong Kong to protect Yang Qian'er, the audience below began to speak out:
"Pick, sure enough, rich people can be invited, and Zhongnanhai bodyguards can be invited to Hong Kong to protect their horses. ”
"That horse is beautiful enough, her boyfriend is stupid, find a man who is more stylish than herself to take care of her horse?"
The next thirty minutes of scenes seem to revolve around the plot of Xu Zhengyang and Yang Qian'er's dissatisfaction with each other, just when the audience has relaxed from the tension that was aroused at the beginning before, the battle of the shopping mall kicked off the first big ** of the movie, just when the killer's gun in the fitting room was pointed at Yang Qian'er, Xu Zhengyang's gun went off first. This is an unparalleled classic gunfight scene, Xu Zhengyang put his arm around Yang Qian'er with one hand, and pulled out a gun with the other hand to shoot, and the two of them flickered and moved in the rain of bullets, as if they were dancing an elegant and beautiful waltz. Xu Zhengyang's gun seemed to have eyes, without the slightest hesitation, and the gun was raised, and the gun was aimed at the enemy.
The coolness of this paragraph made the audience in front of the screen stunned, and even Zhang Le and Zheng Zeshi and others couldn't believe it, they only watched rough films, and they withdrew after the finale, only Liu Weiqiang and Huo Dongjun have been able to complete the post-production of the whole movie.
It wasn't until Zheng Zeshi said to Billy that he was wearing bulletproof vests that all the audience exhaled heavily
It seems that during the battle of the entire shopping mall, the audience held their breath, and it was not until this moment that Huo Dongjun left safely with Zhang Le and relaxed.
However, it was not yet three minutes, and the audience was nervous again because of Chen Dong's appearance, Chen Dong, who was wearing a black windbreaker, was not as chic as Brother Ma in "The True Color of Heroes", but appeared in the morgue with a sense of anger, carrying the corpse and killing five guards in a row with a military stab, which brought a greater impact to the audience than killing people with a gun
"Isn't this the Ma Jun in "Evil Police"? This time he changed his identity and pretended to be a trench coat killer?
"The assassination and killing action of the army is more handsome than the bodyguard with a gun just now. ”
"I don't know which of the two of him is better enough to fight, if you don't use a gun, you will have a good time"
As the plot continued, soon the audience began to worry about the relationship between the protagonist and Yang Qian'er again, seeing Yang Qian'er say I love you to Xu Zhengyang, but Xu Zhengyang pushed each other's hands away in a panic, the audience sighed, and Yang Qian'er mustered up the courage to close the door of the room and turned off the light, and when Huo Dongjun's hand also held the drawstring of the blind, the audience rekindled hope again, staring intently at the picture, seeing Huo Dongjun slowly pull down the blinds, the screen turned black, and some people in the audience applauded, but in the next second, The applauding audience shouted angrily, because Huo Dongjun said goodnight, quickly opened the door and fled.
"Is the director an idiot or not, the two of them are clearly interested in each other, you are a ghost"
But there is no need for Huo Dongjun, who is sitting in the back, to explain, there are already other audience members who shouted:
"He's a bodyguard, so he can fall in love with the target he protects?
didn't leave much time for controversy for the audience, Chen Dong appeared on the stage with the killer, raised the gun and pulled the trigger, and almost broke Mo Shaocong's back who pushed Yang Qian'er to cover and leave, Huo Dongjun stood on the stairs and shot extremely quickly, killing the killer, and Chen Dong appeared in front of Huo Dongjun with a conceited tone: "You are the fastest person I have ever seen to shoot, but you have already finished the fight"
When Chen Dong picked up the alarm, walked to the heroine step by step, and put the gun against the heroine's body, the audience had already raised their hearts high.
In this battle, Chen Dong's Muay Thai leg technique was perfectly displayed, and the continuous attack made Huo Dongjun continue to be hit, just when the audience thought that the protagonist could not hold on, it turned out that the protagonist had been preserving his breath, and then quickly turned the tables and beat Chen Dong to the point where he had no power to fight back, and when he thought that he would kill the villain with a perfect ending, Yang Qian'er played by Zhang Le was pointed at Chen Dong with a gun, and Yang Qian'er's rich boyfriend also appeared at the end and began a thrilling bullet block.
"Bang" When the pistol in Chen Dong's hand really went off, the audience below actually exclaimed, Xu Zhengyang and Yang Qian'er's boyfriend stepped forward at the same time to block the bullet for the woman, but the rich boyfriend dodged halfway through, and Xu Zhengyang was protected by Yang Qian'er behind him and blocked the first bullet.
"The matter is not over yet, Zhong has six bullets, Jianguo, I told him to go down to accompany you" Chen Dong pulled the trigger again after speaking.
Yang Qian'er reflexively wanted to block the bullet for Xu Zhengyang, but Xu Zhengyang threw it away, and after the next shot, she pulled out the military spur on her body, threw her hand away, and killed Chen Dong
Seeing Chen Dong and Huo Dongjun fall to the ground at the same time, the audience below suddenly made a noise and shouted:
"Your mother won't really die like Little Pony, right?"
"The director is in the back, wait a minute, if he really dies, he will beat him with sugar cane"
When she saw Yang Qian'er receiving the watch from Xu Zhengyang, she cried and laughed and put the watch on her chest, and shouted into the distance: Ah Zheng
Under a red flag, Xu Zhengyang smiled back.
The screen freezes and the credits begin to scroll with the end music.
The lights came on, and all the audience got up to look at the main creator of the movie in the last row, and when they saw Huo Dongjun and Zhang Le standing together, an audience member actually wiped his tears: "Your mother, Ah Zheng, I really thought that you would never come back if you went to the big 6"
In the next second, the applause was like thunder, and the audience who left the stage ran to the leading role of Yiyu, and Huo Dongjun led everyone to bow to the audience who came to watch the midnight screening to thank them.
"I said that this movie will definitely be a big hit" Liu Weiqiang said another sentence that he had said before the screening, but his expression at this time was no longer nervous, but excited and confident.
After this movie becomes a hit, many people will become famous because of it. And Liu Weiqiang, who proposed six camera shooting, is one of them.
