Chapter 23, 10,000 empty alleys to fight stars
"I'm here to be the host, not the delivery brother!"
Zhou Xingxing complained while handing out flyers. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Everyone knows that Zhou Xingxing started from tricks, and they also know that he is very talented and has created a generation of nonsensical precedents.
But if you really stay with him in this era, there will still be a feeling that it is not very real. Especially Zhou Xingxing's snow-green Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles costume, one "outfit" is eight years!
The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression has only been fought for eight years. There are several more eight years in life.
Especially "Master Xing, you are not popular, when can I extract the coordinates"!
"Don't look at me like that, I mean, just get used to it...... As long as you think of yourself as an actor, and now you are playing the role of a little brother who is handing out flyers, and the cause and effect of the story, and the background of the characters, then it is easy to endure it. Zhou Xingxing couldn't stand Gu Fan's gaze a little, and couldn't help explaining.
"You seem to be very open-minded, huh?"
"No way, eat with a mouthful, eat with a mouthful......," he said with a dry laugh, changing the subject, "but you're in luck! ”
Speaking of which, he was sad again.
Also.
signed up for the wireless training class, or he pulled his little friend Liang Chaowei to come with him, and Liang Chaowei was reluctant at first. But the result was that he was unwilling to go on and was admitted. And he is willing to go up, but no one wants it.
And this Gu Fan is even more lucky, with Weng Meiling helping him, he will be the same as him as soon as he comes.
Gu Fan looked at him and said down, "What's the big deal, isn't it like you to wear this dress and hand out flyers?"
"Don't be dissatisfied, hehe, I think I took the exam twice before I came in. I waited another half a year to become the host of this children's program, and you are much luckier than me. Zhou Xing laughed to himself.
This is a consolation, a radicalization!
Comforting people is also a technical job, and the confidant brother is not not easy to do.
Seeing that Gu Fan didn't speak, Zhou Xingxing said again: "By the way, aren't you dumb?
"I'm not dumb. It's just that the vocal cords were injured in those days. Gu Fan explained.
"Oh!" After listening to Gu Fan's explanation, Zhou Xingxing didn't ask, he nodded, thought for a while and said, "If one day I become a director, I must shoot this section to commemorate my mistakes." ”
Zhou Xingxing is worthy of being a nonsensical master, if his words were on the movie, he would definitely be able to laugh at a group of people, but in the face of the parties who said this, it was really tasteless.
"Why, don't believe me?" Zhou Xingxing asked Gu Fan, asking himself and answering, "As the late great martial artist Mr. Bruce Lee, whom I admire the most, said, people are not born to be defeated, they can be destroyed, but they can never be defeated!"
How can you not believe him? Didn't he later shoot "Kung Fu" and rob other people's mute little girls of the lollipop?
Before he crossed over, Gu Fan didn't know that there was a prototype in this section.
"But...... This one...... It seems that Hemingway said it, right?" said Gu Fan.
"Did he say it? What he said, how could I not know?!" Zhou Xingxing looked very surprised.
Gu Fan: "......?!!!"
"What's going on over there?"
Suddenly, there were many people gathered in front of him, and Gu Fan asked, "Shall we go over?"
When there are many people, the leaflet will be sent quickly. I've done this job, so Gu Fan knows.
But as soon as he raised his leg and wanted to walk over, Zhou Xingxing grabbed him and said, "Don't do it!"
"Why?" Gu Fan asked, seeing that he was scared.
Zhou Xingxing explained: "You have just entered the industry, so I don't know. In Hong Kong, there is an unwritten rule in this era of the film industry. That's the general rule, every film has to be screened for three days before it is released.
This is a rule that all filmmakers love the most and fear the most. Do you want to know why? At the test screening, the main staff of each film must be present to learn about word of mouth. In general, it is the director and the main actor and the executive producer.
This test screening is the most unruly, if it is not good-looking, it will be scolded by the audience for being bloody, throwing eggs, throwing sugarcane, and being beaten in vain. Of course, if it is good-looking, it will usher in full applause, and the audience's heartfelt admiration, and it will spread the word-of-mouth of this play. ”
Zhou Xingxing said that he was not without yearning.
"What does this have to do with us, we just send out leaflets. Gu Fan said.
"It doesn't matter. We are Shaw Brothers, the famous king of bad movies. What if we fight together when the time comes?" Zhou Xingxing said.
Shaw Brothers and Hong Kong are an existence that Hong Kong people love and hate. In the past, Shaw Brothers was really a masterpiece, dominating the rivers and lakes.
But once everything reaches its peak, it will inevitably come to an end. The Shaw Brothers in recent years is.
In recent years, Shaw Brothers has relied on its own film scheduling system to start shooting a large number of low-cost bad films, and make profits by quickly screening them.
For films, this is not responsible. But for a businessman, Shao Daxiang is a success.
Since it is a low-cost bad movie, the cost is not high, tens of thousands, thousands, or even hundreds.
Although this is a bad movie, who makes there too little entertainment in this era? As long as someone watches it, Shao Daxiang is making a profit.
The rapid screening has accelerated the recovery of capital.
From this point of view, this small-cost bad movie is actually not less profitable than a good film.
Later, the reason why Shao Daxiang couldn't do it was not because of the reasons mentioned in the news, in fact, in addition to having a new theater to challenge his status in the rivers and lakes, the main reason was that the artists under him were unwilling to be cattle and horses anymore.
They are not willing to make films for Shao Daxiang without restrictions because of a contract.
Without free actors, without free staff, the cost of reproducing bad movies is too high and it is no longer profitable, so Shaw Brothers will end the film industry.
And now, there has not been a general strike of wireless artists, so Shaw Brothers is still a bad movie and continues to shoot. It's a big deal, just let your employees be beaten twice by the audience.
This Shaw Brothers drama also ended like this. The audience didn't have long to watch before they started clamoring.
I don't know who took the lead in throwing rotten eggs, and this time, it was even more out of control. The staff and staff of the fight continued to beg for mercy.
I couldn't stand the beating anymore, so I had to flee.
But it's not good where they are fleeing, they flee in the direction of Gu Fan and them.
"Come, fight, there are two more here. ”
Gu Fan and Zhou Xingxing, a rabbit outfit and a turtle outfit, really can't run fast!
After a while, they were overtaken.
Seeing that he was about to be beaten, Zhou Xingxing was anxious and said loudly: "Wait a minute." We have nothing to do with them, we are helping Dawang Food Company to distribute leaflets. ”
"What you said is true?"
"Really, really. ”
"Yes! Beat them, and I will believe you. A man handed Zhou Xingxing a piece of sugar cane.
