Hong Kong Entertainment: The King of Kung Fu

For Chen Yulian, Zhou Runfa's family and friends are always more important than her.

Zhou Runfa is a filial son and a loyal friend, but he is not a qualified lover.

However, she couldn't find anything wrong. Zhou Runfa was tall, handsome, and dedicated, which was more than enough for her.

I was just busy working all day and didn't care enough about her.

But it’s hard to have both. You want others to make a lot of money, and you want them to watch over you all day long. That’s nonsense.

As for Zhou Runfa's unwillingness to disclose his relationship, it is because his career is on the rise and it is not convenient for him to do so. Chen Yulian can also understand this.

Moreover, neither of them is popular, and it doesn't matter whether it is public or not. They don't hide it deliberately. Many friends know about their relationship.

But understanding is one thing, being unhappy is another.

With this understanding, Chen Yulian kept everything in her heart. As time went by, the conflicts became more and more serious, and finally they broke up.

……

The group of people made a fuss until eleven o'clock and dispersed. Zhou Runfa sent Chen Yulian to her eldest sister's place, and then drove away with Wu Mengda.

Seeing Chen Yulian going upstairs, Wu Mengda said, "Would you like to rub your hair?"

Zhou Runfa said angrily: "You are rubbing your head, you are still rubbing it at what time it is. I have to start work early tomorrow morning, so I will stay at your house tonight."

Wu Mengda said cowardly: "Why do you live with me? Isn't it better to live with your sister Lian?"

Zhou Runfa said: "Her eldest sister's house is shared with others, where can she live there?"

Wu Mengda curled his lips: "Can't you just rent a house by yourself and live with Sister Lian?"

Zhou Runfa smiled dryly and said: "Living together? We haven't reached that stage yet."

Wu Mengda exaggeratedly said: "No way, how long have you been dating?"

"It didn't take long, just over half a year. As soon as we started dating, Lian Mei was selected by Mr. Yang to play the role of Ren Yingying, and she went to Baiyang Film Company. You also know how important this opportunity is to her, and she got the script. After that, she went all out, studying the script, memorizing the lines, and practicing her posture. After that, the crew went to Taiwan to shoot the location and only recently came back."

Wu Mengda said earnestly: "Brother, you have to hurry up. You also know how dangerous Yang Shao's drama is. Be careful that Lian Mei will kick you after she becomes famous."

Zhou Runfa said dissatisfiedly: "Mei Lian is not that kind of person."

Wu Mengda ignored Zhou Run's anger and continued: "Brother, although my words don't sound good, they are also for your sake. Have you ever thought about how Yang Ye suddenly found Lian Mei to be the heroine of his new movie? That guy is so romantic. Very, there have been scandals with Lijun Deng and Momoe Yamaguchi, how do you know that he is not attracted to your sister Lian?"

When Wu Mengda said this, Zhou Runfa couldn't help but become a little nervous, but he still said firmly: "Anyway, I can trust Sister Lian."

Wu Mengda said: "I don't doubt Lian Mei's character, but human nature cannot stand the test. Yang Ye can sell hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars at the box office for a movie, but you can only earn a few thousand Hong Kong dollars a month, and you have to subsidize your family." .How do you compete with others?"

Wu Mengda's words made Zhou Runfa inexplicably irritable.

Looking back on the relationship with Chen Yulian in the past six months, it was true that we spent less time together and more time apart.He is so busy at work. He has taken on four full-length dramas and two short dramas this year, and he almost lives on the set.

TV dramas these days are generally stinky and long. Any one of them has fifty episodes, and one hundred episodes is common.

Zhou Runfa was filial and had a little time, so he went back to Lamma Island to be with his mother.

"This is not the way to go. It's better to save money as soon as possible to buy a house and bring my mother to Kowloon. It will be much more convenient then!" Zhou Runfa thought to himself.

For Zhou Runfa, his mother is the most important person in the world.His father was a sailor who only came home once a year and was a gambler. It was his mother who worked hard to bring him up.

So Zhou Runfa hopes to make money first, settle down his mother, and then talk about other things.

At this time in Hong Kong, an ordinary house has risen to 30 to [-] yuan.Chow Run Fat was just a second-tier TV star, and Run Run Shaw had a lot of money, so his income was not high and he didn't save much money.

It wasn't until after "Shanghai Bund" that Zhou Runfa became really popular and he became rich. He bought a house for his mother and started renting a house to live with Chen Yulian.

……

For Chen Yulian, there was no way to tell Zhou Runfa what happened between her and Yang Ye, but she still hoped to get some comfort from Zhou Runfa, but unfortunately she got nothing.

This disappointed her!

In fact, this is a bit overwhelming. Zhou Runfa doesn’t know what happened, so how can he comfort you?
But women are so unreasonable: I won’t tell you, I just want you to guess. If you can’t guess, you don’t love me!

A woman’s logic is: If I have to say something before you do it, what’s the point?
The next day, Chen Yulian got up early, washed up and went to work.

She arrived earlier, and there was no one at the Grand View Studio, but she saw Yang Ye sitting on the director's chair on the ground, holding a drawing board in his hand, and he didn't know what he was drawing.

When Chen Yulian saw Yang Ye, she felt very complicated. She couldn't help but want to run away, but she heard Yang Ye shouting without looking back: "Alian, have you had breakfast?"

Chen Yulian thought to herself, what the hell, he didn't even look back, how did he know it was me?

Yang Ye smiled and said: "The fragrance on your body smells very good, I knew it as soon as you came in!"

Chen Yulian raised her hand curiously and smelled it herself. There was no fragrance?Even if there is, it is the aroma of shower gel and shampoo, which can be smelled.

How did she know that as long as a famous person from the original time and space appears next to Yang Ye, "divine power" can be sensed immediately.

"Didn't eat it!" Chen Yulian said.She planned to buy two random buns from the canteen on the set to deal with them.

"I have Shaomai here, do you want to eat it?"

"I'm losing weight!" Chen Yulian said.

“You can’t skip breakfast to lose weight, come here and have two!”

Chen Yulian had no choice but to walk over and take a shaomai from the lunch box next to Yang Ye.

She was about to escape, but was attracted by Yang Ye's paintings.

There was a hand drawn on the sketch paper, which was very finely drawn. Every joint was clearly drawn, but it had a metallic luster.Obviously, it is a mechanical hand.

Chen Yulian couldn't help but ask: "What is this?"

Yang Ye explained: "This is a robot hand, a concept drawing for my next movie."

"You want to make a science fiction film?" Chen Yulian asked curiously.

"Have I not already made a science fiction film?" Yang Ye said with a smile.

"Oh!" Chen Yulian thought of the movie "ET" that was released not long ago. The global box office is said to have exceeded one billion Hong Kong dollars.

Yang Ye's movie was so powerful that it aroused Chen Yulian's curiosity. She also forgot about hiding from Yang Ye and asked, "Did you change the movie to a robot this time?"

Yang Ye said: "Yes, a robot from the future went to Hong Kong to hunt down a girl working in Mak Kee."

Mak Kee is McDonald's, that's what Hong Kong people call it.

Chen Yulian said inexplicably: "A robot from the future is hunting down girls who work in Mak Kee? What does it want?"

Yang Ye explained: "In the future, robots on the earth have developed autonomous consciousness. They activated nuclear bombs and destroyed the world. The surviving humans, under the leadership of leader Yang Han, resisted the rule of the robots. When humans were about to win, The robot camp sent a robot T800 to travel through time and space to Hong Kong in 1980. Its goal was to kill Yang Han's mother, Yang Lisa, before he was born. Because as long as Yang Lisa was killed, Yang Han would not be born. The leader of the resistance army It no longer exists." Chen Yulian was impressed by Yang Ye's whimsical idea.Send a robot from the future to the present to kill the future leader's mother?

"Then...what should humans do?"

"Of course humans cannot sit still and wait for death. Yang Han sent his right-hand man Li Kai to travel through time and space to Hong Kong in 1980 to protect Yang Lisa. In the process of protecting Yang Lisa, the two fell in love..."

"what?"

"Li Kai died to protect Yang Lisa, and the T800 was eliminated. At the end of the story, Yang Lisa discovered that she was pregnant, and the child in her belly was the future leader of the resistance army, Yang Han."

Chen Yulian was confused: If the robot had not traveled to Hong Kong in 1980 to kill Yang Lisa, Yang Han would not have sent Li Kai to travel to Hong Kong, Yang Han would not have been born, and the leader of the resistance would not have existed... Chen Yulian felt that she was about to be Dizzy.

Yang Ye looked at Chen Yulian's confused expression and said with a smile, "Is it interesting?"

The story Yang Ye told is of course "Terminator" directed by James Cameron in 1984, which was also translated as "Future Soldier" in Hong Kong.

It’s just that the names of the characters have been changed and replaced with Chinese names.

Resistance leader John Connor changed his name to Yang Han, his mother Sarah Connor changed her name to Lisa Yang, and his father Kyle Reese changed his name to Li Kai.

James Cameron came up with the idea in 1982, completed the script in 1983, and found funding to start filming.

The time was coming, and Yang Ye decided to pay tribute first.

When it comes to gathering wool, Yang Ye is quite kind. He will not catch one person and gather it to death. Instead, he will gather a little bit by one person, and the rain and dew will be soaked, showing the demeanor of a scumbag.

Currently, Yang Ye has directed six films, including two by Jet Li, one by Xu Guanjie, one by Chow Run-fat, one by Chen Long, and one by Spielberg.

In addition, as a screenwriter, Yang Ye also wrote three movies: "Alien", "The Girl Who Killed", and "Drunken Master".

There are too many domestic ones and too few foreign ones. This is unfair.

Therefore, for his seventh directorial work, Yang Ye planned to go abroad, and he immediately thought of Cameron.

Cameron doesn't have many works, "Titanic" is not suitable, and the "Avatar" series is currently unavailable.

For "Alien 2", when Cameron debuted two years later, Yang Ye asked Shay to recruit him and let him do it himself.

Among the remaining "Terminator" series and "True Lies", Yang Ye of course chose the "Terminator" series.

This thing has huge influence and can be made into a series of movies to form a huge IP.

The first part of "Terminator" used physical special effects. It was not difficult for Yang Ye to do it, but it was a bit troublesome.

It's a pity that the movie "Terminator" is a bit crude and has many bugs. Its biggest role is to pave the way for "Terminator 2: Judgment Day".

But despite this, the movie is good enough for this era.

Moreover, Yang Ye couldn't skip "Terminator" and shoot "Judgment Day" directly, so he just filmed it first and then filmed the second one when conditions are ripe.

……

Yang Ye and Chen Yulian were chatting, and after a while, the crew arrived one after another.

Guan Zhilin hugged Yang Ye's arm as soon as she came over: "Brother Ye, why are you here so early?"

Yang Ye coughed: "Jiahui, let go!"

As soon as Guan Zhilin arrived, she saw Yang Ye and Chen Yulian sitting together and chatting. She immediately became jealous and ran over to declare her sovereignty.

Guan Zhilin knew that Yang Ye didn't like her being too close to him on the set, and said it would have a bad influence, so she had to let go.

Yang Ye took the food box and said, "Shaomai, Sister Zhou made it, do you want to eat it?"

"Eat, I haven't eaten anything cooked by Sister Zhou for a long time. How about having dinner at your house tonight?"

"Let's wait until the weekend. When I win the award, I can call the crew home to celebrate."

Guan Zhilin picked up a shaomai and ate it, then asked: "What award did you win?"

"Radio Television Hong Kong is going to hold the first Chinese Music Golden Melody Awards."

"How do you know you're going to win?"

Yang Ye pouted: "If I can't even win the award, they won't give it to me!"

Guan Zhilin thought about it, and that was true.Yang Ye is the "originator of Cantonese songs" and "the pioneer of Chinese folk songs". Although he has not many works, he is well-deserved as the "No. 1 Chinese music". He is even influential in Europe and the United States. He once released an English album "We Will Rock You," which went platinum in both North America and the UK.

If you hold an awards ceremony and don't give Yang Ye an award, it's a waste of time.

"You are the best!"

Guan Zhilin said, feeding Yang Ye the Shaomai she took a bite of.

Yang Ye thought to himself, is this a demonstration to Chen Yulian?
Despite this, Yang Ye still opened his mouth and ate the half of the shaomai.

Guan Zhilin shrank her hand and said coquettishly: "Why are you eating such a big mouthful? You almost bit me!"

Yang Ye ate Shaomai and thought to himself: "Monster, let's see how I deal with you when I turn around!"

……

Chen Yulian felt inexplicably uncomfortable when she saw Yang Ye and Guan Zhilin flirting.

Then she despised herself fiercely: What does it have to do with me?Why should I be unhappy?
Next, there are mainly interior scenes of the Miao village and the dyeing workshop. Ren Yingying appears, but there are not many scenes, and there is no scene opposite Linghu Chong, which allows Chen Yulian to avoid a lot of embarrassment.

And Yang Ye seemed to have forgotten about taking the initiative to kiss Chen Yulian under the sunset that evening.He never mentioned it to her again, and never actively harassed Chen Yulian.

Usually, I only talk about movies with Chen Yulian. Although I care about her, it is only between friends.

Chen Yulian thought to herself: "That day, he probably just couldn't help himself!

When he kissed me, he said...please forgive me.

He didn't mention it again later, probably because... he wanted it to go away, as if it never happened, so that no one would be embarrassed!

It turned out that the matter was not that serious. I was overreacting. It was better not to take those defensive measures.

Chen Yulian thought about it for a while and finally felt relieved.

She was thinking before: What should she do if Yang Ye pursues her?What should Yang Ye do if he uses force on her?
"It turns out there was nothing. I was overthinking it! Since he wants this matter to just go away, then I should just pretend it never happened!"

"But...why do I feel an inexplicable loss?"

Chen Yulian will never admit that she is a free-spirited woman. She just wants to be with her brother until she grows old.

She suddenly hated herself! (End of chapter)
