On the 11th, Chen Qiming finished filming his Japanese record MV in Japan.

At noon that day, as soon as the filming was over, he got on a plane and flew back to Hong Kong.

"New Love" has his own investment, and he is also the first male lead, and he attaches great importance to this movie.

Therefore, even though the Japanese album was already preparing for release, he still chose to return to Hong Kong to attend the premiere and cheer for the film.

Before getting on the plane back to Hong Kong, the first thing Chan did was to call friends.

He called Andy Lau, Liming, Wang Zuxian and several other friends to help at the premiere of "New Love".

At the same time, Zhu Yin was also called over by him.

Not far from the Yonggao Cinema, a small premiere of "New Love" was held here, and all the actors and guests who helped out were here.

"You're so funny that you're calling us to help, and you're only here now!"

As soon as Chen Qiming came in, Andy Lau and others, who were chatting with Er Dongsheng and other crew members, saw him.

Wang Zuxian also laughed and teased him.

In this regard, Chen Qiming can only apologize.

He couldn't help it.

The time is too rushed, he just finished the MV shooting in the morning, and he rushed to the airport as soon as it was over, and he was able to arrive now, and there was no delay at all.

After Chen Qiming arrived, all the crew members of "New Love" arrived.

……

There was still a period of time before the start of watching the movie, and Er Dongsheng led Chen Qiming and other leading actors to walk around twice among the guests at the scene.

There are still a lot of guests at today's premiere.

Many of Er Dongsheng's old friends were present, Feng Quan Gong, Ye Dexian and other actors who starred in Director Er Dongsheng's first work "The True Story of the Boss" are all there.

Even Chow Yun-fat, who has not made a movie this year and is in the rest stage, arrived at the scene.

After greeting his friends with Er Dongsheng for a while, Chen Qiming took the initiative to leave there and began to greet Andy Lau and a few other actors he invited to help.

Chen Qiming and Liming each took a piece of cake and chatted with Andy Lau, who didn't eat anything, while eating.

As for Zhu Yin and Wang Zuxian, they were watching from the side.

The two of them also wanted to eat it, but because they were afraid of getting fat, they could only endure it.

"The momentum of the song "New Love" is very strong! Maybe it's going to be the top spot this week. ”

Liming took the initiative to mention the song "New Love".

The song has been very popular since it hit the charts.

Although there is still beyond's song "Sea and Sky" blocking it in the first position.

But as long as the movie "New Love" is a little more powerful, with the help of the promotion of the movie, the song should soon be on the list.

"Don't talk about it, I'm going to be scolded to death by those music critics lately!"

As soon as he heard Liming's words, Andy Lau couldn't help but complain.

Hearing this, Chen Qiming couldn't help laughing.

On October 1, Andy Lau released the album "Love".

From a music critic's point of view, this album is definitely another step forward in Andy Lau's singing career.

Most of the songs on this album are slow.

Andy Lau's performance is very good.

When it was released, it was well received by music critics.

While praising him for being able to sing, he also predicted that Chen Qiming's "New Love" would definitely be trampled under Andy Lau's "Lover's Happy Birthday".

It's just that......

As a result, this song, which has been unanimously praised by Hong Kong music critics, has been trampled under the feet of "New Love" since its release on the first day.

Naturally, this result is not accepted by music critics.

At first, these guys thought it was Andy Lau's song release time period, and the playback was not enough.

But two weeks passed immediately, and this song did not surpass "New Love".

This suddenly made music critics calm, and they scolded Andy Lau for being too weak.

"The reason for the style! Your song style is biased towards slow love songs, which has a great disadvantage in terms of audience, if you ......"

"In today's situation, shouldn't you talk about new love? Why talk about songs? Show off that you can sing? ”

At this time, Wang Zuxian, who couldn't understand the music knowledge that Chen Qiming and the three of them talked about, couldn't help but interject speechlessly.

Hearing this, Chen Qiming and the three of them glanced at each other, but they had no choice but to give up the topic and talk about the new love.

"I'm afraid that your movie will cause some controversy after it is released, so you better be careful."

After chatting a few words about new things, Andy Lau suddenly said to Chen Qiming.

"What do you mean?"

Chen Qiming was a little puzzled.

"I haven't seen your movie, but I've heard people say that your movie is meant to mock the Hong Kong music scene.

If it's someone else, but you......

You should know. ”

Andy Lau said to the point.

Hearing this, Chen Qiming nodded.

Although the play "New Love" is a love movie.

But there is indeed a sarcasm in its content, which mocks the current Hong Kong music scene.

In the movie, the main character, Applejack, is a creator.

But just because he didn't follow the public, he wrote saliva songs and adapted foreign songs, so he was ostracized by his peers.

This is not an adaptation that is clearly mocking the current Hong Kong music scene.

As Andy Lau said, if someone else is the leading actor, or even if Chen Qiming is only the starring role, without investment, it will not stir the nerves of many people in the Hong Kong music scene.

But it is Chen Qiming, Chen Qiming, a treasure island native, who is the person who killed in the Hong Kong music scene with Chinese songs, and at the same time, he is also recognized by everyone as a creative talent.

All kinds of factors converge, which will make Chen Qiming appear in this movie, which will definitely cause discomfort to some people.

A few people chatted hotly in the corner, which also attracted many people to come here.

Chen Qiming, Andy Lau, Liming, three first-class kings in the music world stood together and chatted, this is definitely a unique scenery, many people want to come up to say hello, but they are afraid of disturbing a few people.

Therefore, these people can only choose to pretend to chat around, occasionally aiming at Chen Qiming and a few others, wanting to hear what they are talking about.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, a group of guests came to the theater next to it with Chen Qiming and other leading actors and began to watch the movie.

Of course, before the start of the movie, the main creator came to the stage to speak.

Chen Qiming, as the male lead, is naturally the first to come to power.

However, Chen Qiming has never liked to speak, so he said a few words casually and stepped down.

At seven o'clock, the film officially began to be screened.

The down-and-out musician Ajie played by Chen Qiming, the ex-girlfriend played by Carina Lau, Amin played by Anita Yuen, Feng Baobao, Qin Pei and others appeared one by one, showing a cliché but extremely touching love story for everyone.

When the film was screened, Chen Qiming's attention was not on the movie, but on observing the performance of the audience from time to time.

Just watched it for a while, and Chen Qiming's heart was settled.

He found that many viewers were chatting while watching movies at first.

Watching and watching, slowly, there were fewer and fewer people chatting.

In the middle of the movie, in addition to the sound of the movie, there is only the sound of film critics and reporters writing scripts.

"What do you think?"

In the third row, Huang Qi lifted his glasses and turned his head to look at his companion.

"It's a very touching story, and in addition, the actors' performances are also very explosive, especially Chen Qiming and Anita Yuen.

Their performance is definitely at the level of an actor and actress.

I am very optimistic about Chen Qiming, this guy is the same as Tony Leung, he is simply born to act. ”

After a pause, the companion said: "It's hard to imagine how he can create, sing, and act by himself."

Could it be that there is such a natural genius in this world? ”

"I don't have anything to say about the story and acting, but have you noticed it, this drama seems to be attacking the Hong Kong music scene!"

Huang Qi glanced at Chen Qiming in the first row and said in a low voice.

"It's none of our business, there's no need to get involved.

Moreover, the HK Phil is like this, others are just telling the truth.

If Hong Kong's local creators had carried less foreign works, they wouldn't have to be afraid of Chan Kai-ming and how they satirized them. ”

As his companion spoke, he couldn't help but chuckle, "To be honest, I still admire Chen Qiming very much, he is talented, he dares to speak, and he is self-motivated."

Look at the people, directly aimed at the Japanese market, and plunged into it.

His idea of expanding foreign markets is very similar to Jackie Chan.

This spirit is definitely worth learning from all Hong Kong and Taiwan musicians and filmmakers......"

As he was talking, he suddenly paused, and couldn't help but stare at the big screen with wide eyes.

At this time, it is the end of the movie, and Amin played by Anita Yuen is terminally ill and lying on a hospital bed.

Ajie, played by Chen Qiming, is running down the street to buy a ring, and he wants to fulfill Amin's last wish.

"I'm going to be in a fairy tale"

"The Angel You Love"

"Open Hands"

"Becoming Wings to Protect You"

Chen Qiming's "Fairy Tale" sounded at this time, and in the ward, the ripple lines on the heartbeat detector on the machine returned to a straight line, and Amin, who was looking out of the door and waiting for Applejack's return, slowly closed his eyes.

She doesn't wait for Applejack to come back with the ring.

At the time of her death, Applejack, who had returned from buying a ring, was also hit by a car on the road and flew a long way.

His nose was blue and his face was swollen, his eyes were full of tears, his snot was long, and he got up from the ground with difficulty, and despite the driver's scolding, he limped and continued to rush towards the hospital.

The picture of life and death, coupled with the touching lyrics of "Fairy Tale", made many people in the theater can't help but hold back in an instant, and they can't help but shed tears under the emotional resonance.

In the movie, Ajie, played by Chen Qiming, sits in front of the hospital bed and cries, tears and snot all over her face.

In the theater, the audience sobbed quietly and quietly wiped their tears.

This scene made some reporters who were always paying attention to the performance of the audience couldn't help but take out their cameras.

Click!

A cover photo of tomorrow's headlines suddenly appears in the camera.

Amin is dead.

Just when everyone thought the movie was over, the movie was still going on.

Applejack is seen sitting in front of Amin's tombstone, holding a violin in her hand, and begins to play with a sad expression.

A sad song "The Rain" begins to unfold slowly.

Accompanied by the song, the previous scenes of the two began to be on the screen.

In the end, the picture freezes on Amin's bright smile.

Subsequently, the picture turned black, and the curtain call began to appear, and at the same time, the song "New Love" also began to sound.

Smack!

The lights were lit up in the theater, and Chen Qiming and other main creators began to take the stage.

It was only at this time that the audience walked out of the play.

Crackle!

"Ming Tsai! You're so handsome! ”

"I love you to death! I knew you wouldn't let us down! ”

"Woooooooooo......oo Why let Amin die! Woowoo woo ......"

With warm applause, many fans in the audience who came to support Chen Qiming began to shout for support.

At the same time, there are also fragile little girls who talk and cry, which makes people feel distressed.

The premiere was a public appearance before the film's official release, as well as a press conference.

After the movie ended and the main creative team took the stage, the interview session began.

Many of the reporters who came today are here for Chen Qiming.

Therefore, as soon as the main creative team came to the stage, these reporters wanted to ask Chen Qiming questions.

But Chen Qiming put all the problem on Er Dongsheng.

"I'm just an actor, the script of the movie was written by Director Er after three years of planning, about the plot of the movie, everyone still asks Director Er the most suitable, and he will definitely give everyone a satisfactory answer."

"The ending of the movie, in fact, I originally planned to end it when the heroine died.

But not long ago, someone recommended that I go to watch the MV of Ming Zai's "Fairy Tale".

To be honest, I didn't expect the story of this MV to be so touching.

Inspired by this, I thought of adding the ending of a song created by the male protagonist at the end.

And this piece was composed by our talented man Ming Tsai himself. ”

Er Dongsheng obviously also saw the performance of the audience who came tonight, and knew that the movie was stable, so his tone was very happy, and he made a joke:

"Ming Zai, you successfully conquered me, just with this song, I will be your fan in the future, in the future, when your eyebrow album is released, you must tell me, I will buy one, and then pack it all up for a good collection."

Hearing his words, Chen Qiming couldn't help but laugh: "Are you just a fan?" I think I did a good job in the movie! Can't you be a movie fan too? ”

"Hahaha! Yes, movie fans too! ”

Er Dongsheng couldn't help laughing.

A little joke livened up the atmosphere, and the rest of the interview gradually returned to the point.

Reporters and film critics began to ask questions in turn, asking some questions about the plot of the film, as well as some things during filming.

Until a serious-looking reporter stood up and asked.

He aimed directly at Chen Qiming and asked:

"Ming Zai, we have found that there are many places in this movie that are metaphors for the current Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles.

Excuse me, is this your idea?

Do you have a lot of dissatisfaction with the Hong Kong and Taiwan music scene? ”

As soon as this question came out, everyone immediately turned their attention to Chen Qiming.

This is not a trivial problem.

Don't look at the reporters and film critics present, they are all holding Chen Qiming.

But in their eyes, Chen Qiming has always been an outsider.

Therefore, if Chen Qiming really looks down on the Hong Kong music scene, it will definitely cause public anger.

"I'll ...... this matter"

When Er Dongsheng saw this, he immediately opened his mouth and was about to speak.

The script was written by him, which is a metaphor for the Hong Kong music scene, and he didn't want Chen Qiming to bear the blame.

However, Chen Qiming took the initiative to interrupt him, picked up the microphone and said:

"Regarding your questions, I thought I could talk to you.

First of all, as for whether the movie is a metaphor for the Hong Kong music scene, I can admit that it is indeed a metaphor, not only Hong Kong, but also the treasure island.

However, I don't think this should be a bad thing, and there will be motivation when there is a spur.

If you are motivated, you will create more good works.

I really hope that there will be more and better works in the Hong Kong and Taiwan music scene.

As for what you said, I am dissatisfied with the Hong Kong music scene.

I don't admit that, and I don't know where you can tell that I'm dissatisfied with the Hong Kong music scene.

Here, I can tell you very honestly that I also grew up listening to Hong Kong and Taiwan music, and many Cantonese songs in Hong Kong are sung in Baodao.

Even if I am dissatisfied, I am only dissatisfied with certain things, and I can clearly say that I have no problem with the entire Hong Kong music scene. ”

The reason why Chen Qiming interrupted Er Dongsheng was not to be in the limelight.

But no matter what Er Dongsheng says.

Since someone has raised this question, then this basin will be 100% detained on Chen Qiming.

Even if all those here today know that the person who is a metaphor for those bad habits in the Hong Kong music scene is Er Dongsheng.

But there is no way, who makes Chen Qiming's signboard easier to attract attention, and the newspaper news about him is easier to sell.

Therefore, instead of letting Er Dong rise out of this move, Chen Qiming might as well explain it himself.

Moreover, there is one thing to say, the problems mentioned in "New Love" are basically bad habits in the current Hong Kong and Taiwan music scene.

What's the matter with pointing it out, it's just a big deal to be angry with some guys who are jealous of him.

And let's be honest.

If he had just debuted, Chen Qiming might still attach great importance to the record market in Hong Kong.

But now......

In recent years, the Chinese record market has been growing.

This year, this market has become the No. 1 market in the Chinese music scene.

Look at eight years.

At that time, Hong Kong singers released records, and basically only released Cantonese records.

And now!

Both big-name singers and first- and second-tier singers have begun to release Chinese records.

Even, some singers even went directly to the treasure island to develop.

Why is that?

It's not because Chinese records are more profitable.

Cantonese records, if you release one, the highest sales volume is five or six hundred thousand copies.

And this data is actually ordinary in the current Chinese record market.

Since last year, there have been more and more Chinese records sold by one million.

This year, there are three albums with sales of more than 5 million, "Heart Is Too Soft", "Kiss Goodbye", and "Flower Heart".

In this case, who can bear to continue to nest in the small land of the Cantonese market?

Since Hong Kong singers want to release Chinese records.

Then, the last thing they will do is boycott Chen Qiming.

If they dare to boycott Chen Qiming in Hong Kong.

The company behind Chen Qiming will choose to boycott their Chinese records on Treasure Island.

This kind of thing, which harms one's own interests just because of one piece of news, most of the singers in Hong Kong who have brains will never do it.

Singers will not boycott Chen Qiming, and the rest are nothing more than some music critics and music arranger masters.

And these people.

To tell the truth, no matter how they resist themselves, Chen Qiming will not be afraid of them.

Because he won't ask them to write songs for themselves.

Therefore, after facing this question from reporters, Chen Qiming did not shy away from admitting that the film was in the dark corner of the obscure Hong Kong music scene.

Of course, mixed entertainment circles.

Some things must not be said too harshly, and you have to save some face.

Therefore, while Chen Qiming expressed his dissatisfaction with some things, he also expressed his respect for the Hong Kong music scene.

Brush Brush Brush!

The reporters below are all writing quickly.

Chen Qiming glanced at Er Dongsheng.

He immediately understood, and immediately ordered a film critic to get up and continue the interview with the movie.

Film critics clearly don't care about the music scene.

As soon as the film critic who was ordered stood up, he immediately expressed his love for this movie:

"Without a doubt, this is definitely the best movie I have seen this year, and I am very grateful to the crew for inviting me to watch it, thank you."

first expressed his gratitude, and this person immediately began to praise Chen Qiming.

"Chen Qiming, to be honest, in fact, I never thought you could get the best newcomer last year.

At that time, when the judges voted for the Academy Awards, I voted for Yuan Yuyi, in my opinion, among the newcomers last year, she was definitely the most acting.

However, in today's movie, Chen Qiming, you did give me a surprise.

The character of Ajie, under your interpretation, I can't see a trace of Chen Qiming.

For a moment, I almost thought you were Applejack himself.

I can only say that your performance has successfully moved me, and at this year's Academy Awards, if you can be shortlisted for Best Actor, I will vote for you. ”

"Thank you, thank you very much!"

Chen Qiming hurriedly thanked.

While thanking, he couldn't help but glance at Er Dongsheng.

This guy is worthy of being from an acting family, and he has so many friends.

The judges of the Academy Awards were invited.

Of course, the judges of the Academy Awards are actually not very good positions.

Most of the directors and film critics who are a little famous are judges.

can only say that Chen Qiming is very happy with what this guy said.

He didn't expect him to be so close to the Academy Awards.

The film critic, who is also a judge of the Academy Awards, praised Chen Qiming and began to praise Anita Yuen again.

It can be seen that he likes Anita Yuen's performance very much, and almost praised her.

Next, Andy Lau, Liming, Wang Zuxian and other people who came to help stood up and said a few words.

They're here to help, mainly for this moment.

At the end of the movie, stand up and brag about the movie.

Well, it's also a human sophistication.

Today, Andy Lau came to help Chen Qiming's movie and said a lot of awesome things about movies.

After that, his movie will be released, and as long as he is invited, Chen Qiming will also go.

Then it doesn't matter if the movie is good or not, whether it's bad or not, it comes up to boast, how wonderful and powerful the movie is, how much I like it, and so on.

In fact, to a certain extent, this kind of support is actually just to let the fans or fans of the guests come to watch this movie.

Just like Andy Lau, if he bragged about a bunch of "New Love" here today, it will definitely be published in the newspaper the next day.

Even if no newspaper takes the initiative to publish it, the crew will find a way to buy news publications.

Then when his fans and fans saw it, they would pay for tickets to watch it when they saw that their idol recommended this movie so much.

Of course, this kind of help should still be cautious.

Too bad films are easy to lose character.

If you recommend it a few more times, the fans won't buy it.

After all, fans are not all fools, and they also understand the human relations in the entertainment industry.
