Golden Age 1990

Chapter 123: Peach, "Farewell My Concubine" wants me to run it? (5000 words)
Things in Hong Kong were almost done, and Huang Ying couldn't hold back for a long time.

The various business deals were also discussed very well, and Bai Feng gained quite a lot.

The movie "Double Eyes" can be finished in about a month, even Huang Ying said that it can be done even faster.

This place is really full of movie fast players, and the team built by Huang Ying is quite stable.

The director is Liu Weiqiang, who was the director of the previous "Zombie Supreme".

Of course Bai Feng knew about this guy, but in fact, Bai Feng's plan to save Huang Ying had something to do with this guy.

Horror movies can be made, but so can other movies.

Niu Lao's "Young and Dangerous" was serialized last year, and this comic immediately became popular.

Of course, this kind of fire is not very popular at present.

Mainly some students, or brothers on the road like it very much.

Comics in Hong Kong have not been considered a very mainstream literary and artistic work, and even if they read comics, they mainly come from Japan.

About this point, Bai Feng still has some understanding, he is actually similar to many comic fans in our mainland.

At the beginning, I read the comics produced by the publishing house in Hainan, and animations in this era are mainly translated by Liao.

The Hainan side is characterized by thick books, which are called separate books in Japan.

It's just this concept, which was only known later.

Especially the magazine "Jump". Bai Feng didn't know that such a magazine existed in 92 or 93. At least at this point in time, this magazine was not available in mainland China.

However, Hong Kong does have it.

There has always been a Chinese version for sale, and it seems that the Japanese version can also be bought.

Then this is a competition. From the perspective of the comics industry, Japan is indeed very strong, and Hong Kong really has a big disadvantage in competition.

So, they can only think of some ways.

This method is to simply and rudely increase the color level... Well, most Hong Kong comics are full-color.

But it is also because of the relatively large degree of color, although it is divided into age groups, there are indeed many controversies.

In this way, this Hong Kong comic has always been at a level that is neither good nor bad.

Bai Feng has paid some attention to this industry, which can be regarded as preparation for the future.

However, this also made Zhenmei very curious.

"You men are really weird."

"Why is it strange?"

"Like watching this stuff so much?"

"Cartoon? Haha... Isn't it normal for me to be this age?"

"This... But you really don't look like a man who likes to read comics at all."

Bai Feng could tell what Li Lizhen really wanted to say, but Bai Feng was not mature enough.

But, about this...

"Haven't you heard such a sentence?"

"What?"

"A man is a teenager until he dies."

"Huh?...It's really an interesting and reasonable sentence."

Li Lizhen swears that she has never heard this sentence, but she thinks it is very good.

Bai Feng just felt that this sentence was very suitable for his current situation, and besides, he was not ready to tell Li Lizhen all of his plans.

At least for this "Young and Dangerous" movie, if he wants to do it, he still has to do a lot of work.

However, it is undeniable that Bai Feng still likes Zhenmei very much.

Li Lizhen has already joined the group, she doesn't have many scenes, so she is very relaxed.

So, whenever there is a chance, come to Bai Feng... happy.

It should be said that this is also the mission assigned to her by those big bosses.

In the eyes of the bosses, Li Lizhen is a very good chess piece, and she has already gained absolute trust with Bai Feng.

Taking advantage of her beauty and innocence, she subdued the young man Bai Feng.

As a young man, he has strong firepower and has no resistance to a girl like Li Lizhen.

It has to be said that their plan was quite good, if it was someone else, it would probably be over.

It's just that they didn't expect that Bai Feng's firepower might be too strong. Anyway, Li Lizhen is actually Bai Feng's person.

Of course, there is also the reason why Li Lizhen has recognized Bai Feng's true strength.

This man is not what he looks like on the outside, he actually has very strong strength.

As for happy... they always have to play some tricks, just like now.

Bai Feng changed a car this time and took Zhenmei for a ride.

Hong Kong's housing prices are very high. One important factor is that they have been emphasizing environmental protection and greening.

To put it simply, it is better to let this place be covered with weeds than to build buildings.

This place is known as one of the most crowded places in the world, but in fact, the congestion is not because there is not enough land here.

It is because there are many places that are not developed at all.

Originally, this should be a very fucked up approach. We think normally, it should be to build more houses to solve the living environment of the citizens.

The Hong Kong people live really small, and the very famous "cage people" literally means that people live in cages one by one.

To be honest, living in such an environment, there is really no dignity to speak of.

However, when someone wants to develop and use more land to build buildings, they are blocked by many people.

They just want to maintain the prices of their properties.

This can no longer be described as short-sighted, and of course it is supported by capital and wealthy people.

You Hong Kong residents only have a few houses, how can they compare with the properties in the hands of rich people?

When housing prices fall, Hong Kong residents only lose a little, and the rich lose even more.

It's a pity that human nature is like this, and most of the residents here don't know about the criticism of the real estate by Mr. Ma and En.

These things are just in Bai Feng's mind, and now he can enjoy some benefits.

Like this car... a Jeep.

Why a jeep?

Wait to drive to a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters and few people.

"How do you feel about the environment here?"

"Ah, you bastard..."

Next to the jeep, sister Zhen is wearing hot pants and a tight shirt, isn't it wonderful?
Bai Feng also likes to let her hold the bumper on the roof of the jeep. The scenery is great and she is not tired.

In short, this product is somewhat playable.

I, Bai Feng, am here, so Li Lizhen won’t be able to take pictures of that peach, so it’s good to be happy like this.

Of course Li Lizhen didn't know what Bai Feng was thinking, she just thought it was a good trick.

When we have had enough of the mountain scenery and need to rest, we always have to talk about something.

"Brother Feng, actually I'm a little worried."

"worry about what?"

"That's the movie..."

"Are you afraid that the box office will be bad?"

"This... I know there may be problems with speaking like this, but I have heard some things from those big guys."

"what did they say?"

"If the movie does average at the box office, they won't let you go."

"Well, there is nothing wrong with this statement."

"what?"

Li Lizhen was taken aback, it was different from just now, just now it was physical, now she is more afraid.

"You don't have to worry about anything, I'm an advertising person, I think I want my movie to be successful, and I'm sure enough to make my movie successful."

Enough grip to make the film a success.

This sounds really subversive to Li Lizhen.

The success of the film is actually not easy.

This line of business was not so favored by the underworld. After all, in the past, there were many profitable businesses with each prefix.

But later, the box office of movies was getting higher and higher, and the prefix found that this business was more profitable than selling anything.

Therefore, this led to the real invasion of the film and television industry by the underworld.

It used to have a foundation, but it really wasn't as fierce as it was in the last ten years.

Especially last year's Ah Xing's movie, it was really profitable to make one, it was so profitable.

But no matter what, there is still a problem in this industry, that is, it does not necessarily make money.

Good movies don’t necessarily make money, and bad movies don’t necessarily lose money.

It's even somewhat similar to gambling.

How could Bai Feng not be surprised that Bai Feng had such confidence now?

However, it seems that he has really succeeded many times.

Is he a lucky man?
Many people here in Hong Kong are very feudal and superstitious, otherwise ghost movies would not be popular.

Li Lizhen's eyes changed when she looked at Bai Feng, and she felt even more at ease as she rested her head on his chest.

Bai Feng didn't know the reason for her change, but a pure and lustful beauty was so obedient to him.

It feels great.

He is now the standard of a big boss, with enough strength and enough waves.

In fact, the world is sometimes so simple, especially in a capitalist place like Hong Kong.

If you have strength and money, you can be domineering and do whatever you want.

Bai Feng couldn't help but be surprised when he thought of this.

I should also work hard.

Yes, it's just a new platform, and I should move on.

So he added.

"Even if the movie fails at the box office, I'm not afraid of them."

These words were full of pride and momentum, and Li Lizhen felt that she was following the right person.

However, Bai Feng also had to return to the mainland.

As for the next contest, at least two or three months later.

"Twin Eyes" will not be released until that time at the earliest.

……

Airport. "Mr. Bai Feng, hello, you are taking..."

As if he was somewhat used to it, Bai Feng started playing this little trick again.

But don’t tell me, this trick is actually quite easy to use.

Some people are really hooked.

This time he came alone, so it would be better to let their airline broadcast it for a while.

Honggu and Zhu Jiading didn't come to see them off, but Bai Feng had dinner with them once before.

That's fine.

The etiquette was enough, and he felt more at ease alone.

But he didn't expect that his little trick would catch someone again.

This time it was different, it was a woman.

"Excuse me, is this Mr. Bai Feng?"

Bai Feng was sitting on the seat in the waiting hall, he saw this woman early in the morning.

She wears a pair of Gucci glasses, and her clothes are low-key and gorgeous. If it's not Gucci, it should be Chanel or something.

A young lady, a proper lady.

Bai Feng didn't know her in his impression, but since she took the initiative to come over, she naturally had something to talk about.

"Hello, I'm Bai Feng, may I ask..."

Bai Feng stretched out his hand very politely, and shook hands understandingly. A man should not hold a woman's hand for a long time.

The other party also understood this, and they shook hands lightly and finished.

The lady said directly: "My name is Xu Feng, and I am currently Tang's deputy general manager."

It was her.

Bai Feng had actually met Xu Feng before, but that was about ten years later, and she at that time was really different from her now.

As you get older, no matter how beautiful you are, it is difficult to maintain your youthful appearance.

Xu Feng is a wealthy lady, and the head of a wealthy family. When Bai Feng saw her, this woman was already quite bloated.

Of course, it can be seen that she was very beautiful when she was young.

The current Xu Feng is about 7% of the level of his youth.

Bai Feng naturally pretended to be surprised at this moment.

"Ah, it's Mr. Xu."

In the advertising industry or some industries, they like to call each other 'general'.

It doesn't matter how big his official is, you always call him Jiawei, and he is guaranteed to find no faults.

And Xu Feng is indeed a boss, this woman is quite powerful.

Now being called 'President' by Bai Feng, a tall and handsome young man, she is quite happy in her heart.

"Mr. Bai, I've heard your name a long time ago. I didn't expect to meet you at the airport. What a coincidence."

"It's true. I've also admired Mr. Xu's name for a long time. In the film industry, a strong woman like Mr. Xu is really admirable."

Bai Feng wore this tall hat for her, it was very comfortable.

Xu Feng then said: "I wanted to talk to Mr. Bai about something, but now it seems that we..."

At this moment, the broadcast came again.

Of course Bai Feng didn't think there was anything wrong, he even thought the radio was shouting a few times.

But Xu Feng seemed very surprised, "Oh! So we are on the same plane."

Good guy, is it such a coincidence?
Bai Feng just smiled when he heard that, "That's such a coincidence, why don't we go to board the plane right away, okay?"

Don't talk about it, please be civilized, especially the middle-aged and wealthy lady in front of you.

Xu Feng naturally readily agreed.

It's just that Bai Feng already knew very well in his heart, he was sure that this woman Xu Feng must have been caught by his little radio routine.

She 100% changed the ticket.

Moreover, it was just changed.

Otherwise, if she appeared here, why didn't her name be called on the radio?

This lady took the bait, it's really good.

……

on the plane.

Bai Feng simply changed seats with the passenger next to Xu Feng politely.

In fact, as long as it is not too much, the matter of changing seats on the plane will usually be successful.

The two had a chance to chat.

Xu Feng first expressed his gratitude, after all, this is the seat that Bai Feng took the initiative to change.

Bai Feng knew in his heart that if he didn't change, it would be too much.

Because this is tantamount to forcing Xu Feng to exchange, she is a wealthy lady, she is very arrogant, she must be angry in her heart.

Then it will be difficult to discuss any business.

That was really the case, Xu Feng took the initiative to start the topic.

"I've been hearing Mr. Bai's name lately. You seem to be very good at running movies."

"you flatter me."

Speaking of this, Bai Feng roughly guessed a result.

really.

"Mr. Bai, you should have heard of it. I invested in a big production before, which is Director Chen's "Farewell My Concubine"..."

That's it, Xu Feng went on to say a lot of information about this movie.

One thing that is certain is that the film will be released around March.

When Bai Feng heard this, he frowned.

"Mr. Bai, what's the matter?"

"Oh, I have a movie, and it will be released around this time."

This is hardly a coincidence.

Anyone who knows the business knows that these two films are about to collide.

But Xu Feng smiled and said: "It should be nothing, the types of our movies are completely different."

This is true.

Bai Feng followed suit and nodded, then said with a smile: "Actually, this movie has been well marketed."

Xu Feng was a little surprised when he said this, but he immediately laughed.

"Mr. Bai is indeed amazing."

From the looks of it, this woman is indeed very smart.

In Bai Feng's view, "Farewell My Concubine" has indeed been well marketed.

Speaking of this script, this novel by Li Bihua has been popular in Hong Kong circles for many years.

Although the circle is not very big, it is mainly in the film and television industry.

But it is famous.

In addition, there is the casting turmoil. Xu Feng actually decided early on that he wanted Zhang Guorong to play the role.

Afterwards, I wasted a lot of time... These seem to have delayed the progress of the filming, but they also created a lot of topics.

A professional like Bai Feng can tell at a glance that this is also a kind of marketing.

Maybe, the turmoil of Zunlong was one of the topics created by Xu Feng.

Therefore, when Bai Feng pointed it out, it was a wave of his strength.

So, what's next?
"I believe in Mr. Bai's strength. If Mr. Bai runs this movie, it will definitely be a success."

Bai Feng hesitated for a moment.

"Farewell My Concubine" is highly rated, and there are indeed enough reasons for this.

This film was actually made with great care, and many of the things were produced by the elite artists of Beijing Film Studio.

This is really the case, not due to Director Chen alone.

And the one who can prove this is Director Chen himself.

The films he made later were simply... most of them were very eye-catching.

It is true that Director Chen is capable.

But is he very capable?

Not necessarily.

It seems that his old classmate Zhang Yimou took him as a photographer at the beginning, and his works during that time were also good.

"Yellow Earth" was really well shot, and this film has also received high praise overseas.

Otherwise, Director Chen would not be famous overseas.

And what about Zhang Yimou?

It is certain that with regard to this film, the two old classmates, very strong buddies, definitely had a rift.

It can't be said that old and dead are not in touch with each other, but they have never cooperated since then, and even, during the Beijing Film Academy Anniversary, they seldom talked.

Director Chen came all the way to make movies, and there are fewer and fewer people around him.

I, Bai Feng, have also managed Sister Hong. I am afraid that in the future of this time and space, there is a high probability that Director Chen will have fewer people around him.

To sum up, Director Chen is narrow-minded.

It's not a good job to help a guy like this run a movie.

Well, let's be more straightforward, Bai Feng really doesn't like Director Chen.

This is only considered from the perspective of personal grievances with Chen, and there are actually other factors.

just now……

"Ms. Xu, can you let me think about it."

The smile on Xu Feng's face did not diminish after hearing this.

"Of course there is no problem. We will have many opportunities to chat in Beijing."

Well, that's not bad.

Bai Feng nodded.

After that, we talked about some uninteresting topics, and after the plane landed in the capital.

Bai Feng soon received a call from Sister Qing.

"Sister Liu has brought the child back, and she is staying in the capital now."

　Sorry everyone, I am indeed very tired today. I must have caught a cold. The update is really late. I am sorry, but I have completed [-] words. Please understand.
