Hong Kong Entertainment: The King of Kung Fu

Fang Yihua was about to be pissed to death. "King of Thousand Kings" finally defeated "Home in the Pearl River". "Dragon" came out, and "King of Thousand Kings" was trampled under its feet.

The most golden slots in the evening were the seven o'clock, eight o'clock and nine o'clock slots. The seven o'clock and nine o'clock slots were completely defeated, leaving only one eight o'clock slot. ATV's "Tears of the Wind" had average ratings.

ATV's "thousands of sails" offensive launched in September has begun to bear fruit. Wireless's traditional long-form drama unit plus variety show model seems unable to withstand ATV's drama sea model.

What's even more annoying is that the much-talked-about BIUBIUBIU in this version of "Dragon Movie", with one yang finger shooting out the laser, was invented by Shaw Brothers.

This is how brothers Duan Zhengming and Duan Zhengchun used their Yang Finger when they were filming "Dragon" in 1977.

However, the adaptation by Ni Kuang, who was hired by Tianlong, was so outrageous that many viewers cursed it, causing it to crash at the box office and very few people watched it.

Wang Tianlin moved his fat body and slowly walked into Fang Yihua's office. He opened his mouth and asked: "Sixth Aunt, you came to me to cut off "The King of Kings" in half, right?"

Fang Yihua forced out a smile and said: "How could it be? Tianlin, you did a great job filming "The King of Kings". It's about to end. Try to make the finale more exciting."

Are you kidding me? Last month I just cut off "The Legend" in half, and now I've cut "King of Kings" in half. Do you still want to mess around?

"I invited you here because I want to ask if there are any good books recently that can beat "Dragon Movie"."

Wang Tianlin thought for a while and said: ""Dragon" is a Jin Yong drama that Yang Ye personally participated in. For this reason, he also found a bunch of old stars to make Green Leaf. The production is also very sophisticated. It is very possible to beat it head-on. Xiao, I’m not sure!”

Wang Tianlin directly admitted defeat, leaving Fang Yihua very helpless. He had already asked the company's other two gold medal producers Zhao Zhenqiang and Li Tiansheng before, and they both expressed that they were not sure.

"But..." Wang Tianlin changed his subject and said, "I am planning to collaborate with A Jing on "The Rogue Emperor". It is a comedy, and the result should be pretty good."

"The King of Thousand Kings" is a collaboration between Wang Tianlin and Wang Jing's father and son. Fang Yihua is very satisfied with this drama. When he heard that they were going to join forces again, he smiled and said: "Ah Jing is very talented. Tianlin, you have given birth to a good son." !”

Wang Tianlin smiled to himself and said, "He does have some talent in screenwriting."

Fang Yihua asked: "When will this drama be broadcast?"

These days, TV dramas are shot and broadcast at the same time, and the schedule is very fast. When shooting, they have to be divided into several groups and several directors shoot together. For example, "Dragon" has four directors.

It is very important for the supervisor to coordinate the progress of several groups. Therefore, among the current crews, the supervisor is the largest and the most tiring. Often, after filming a movie, he has to rest for a month or two, otherwise his body will not be able to bear it at all.

Wang Tianlin thought for a while and said: "I'll try to premiere it in the first year of the year!"

Fang Yihua counted the days and saw that there were still more than two months left, and said, "That's good!"

Wang Tianlin left, and Fang Yihua called Chu Yuan over again and said, "When you go to Taiwan now, no matter what method you use, you must find Gu Long for me."

Chu Yuan said inexplicably: "I still have a movie in hand to shoot."

Fang Yihua said: "Pause for a moment. You must find Gu Long. I'm afraid that guy Yang Ye will get there first. By then, you won't be able to make any more Gu Long movies if you want."

"Yang Ye wants to buy out Gu Long's copyright?"

"I don't know, I did this just in case!"

"Okay!" Chu Yuan nodded, but then said: "But I can't guarantee that we can definitely find this guy."

Fang Yihua had a headache and said: "You have more friends there, which is better than Zhou Liang Shuyi running around. When you find him, let me know and I will go and talk to him in person."

"Row!"

Chu Yuan agreed and went out.

Fang Yihua took a sip of coffee and began to think: Since he can't beat "Dragon" head-on, can he use some heretical means?

Last year, the ratings of "The Transformation of the Silkworm" exploded, and Fang Yihua spent money to bribe Xu Shaoqiang, which almost prevented the filming of "The Transformation of the Silkworm".

Although McDonald later got quick and came up with a clever trick to break out of the cocoon and change his appearance, it also left Li Shi in disarray for a while.

So this time...is there anyone who can be bribed?

Or, is there something scandalous about someone that can make a big fuss about it?

Fang Yihua first thought of Hu Jin, who made romantic movies. Yang Ye actually used porn stars to make TV series. He really taught the children badly. Why not find a newspaper and hype it up?

Who else?

Fang Yihua found the information about the leading actors in "Dragon Movie" and analyzed it carefully.

Well, this Zhang Guorong also filmed the romantic movie "Spring in the Red Mansion", so he can also bring up the past and report it.

It's a pity that Hu Jin was filming a romantic movie in Shaw Brothers, and it would be a shame for Shaw Brothers to mess with her.

Zhang Guorong is a man, so this will not hurt him much.

Fang Yihua thought about it for a while, and suddenly discovered that Chen Xiuwen, who played Mu Wanqing, had previously hosted the late-night adult program "Owl Time" on LiTV, and his eyes suddenly lit up. It turns out that after Chen Xiuwen signed the contract with LiTV, she was responsible for hosting the children's program "Awakening Time". Chen Xiuwen's youthful, beautiful and lively image was well received and the ratings were good.

Li's then produced another program "Owl Time", allowing Chen Xiuwen to continue to assume the important role.

As the name suggests, owls appear at night, so this program is not too "serious". It is an adult talk show.

At this time, Chen Xiuwen was only seventeen or eighteen years old. She looked innocent and shy. Which man would be so hungry after seeing her?

As a result, many wealthy men stayed up late at night watching the TV, causing the ratings to skyrocket.

Fang Yihua thought to herself: Chen Xiuwen, you host a children's program and an adult program at the same time. Isn't this teaching bad things to children?

I found a newspaper and reported the matter to her in a big way, adding more fuel to the fire and making some specious smear claims, such as her disorderly lifestyle and her liking to seduce men.

Audiences love to spread such specious rumors, not to mention that she has hosted adult programs. It is guaranteed that within three days, her rumor will spread all over the city.

Fang Yihua did as he said, and immediately found an unknown newspaper and gave the order.

……

Zhou Runfa was feeling a little depressed. Not long ago, Xu Anhua contacted him and hoped that he could star in her new film "The Story of Hu Yue".

Although Xu Anhua is a new director, he is touted in the film industry as a leader of the new wave of films and a future star in the Hong Kong film industry.

The two films he directed previously, "Crazy Robbery" and "Crash", received good reviews at the box office, so Chow Yun-fat was naturally willing to star in the film, so he agreed wholeheartedly.

However, he had an agreement with TVB that he could only use his spare time while filming dramas to pick up movies.

And he happens to be filming "Shanghai Bund 2", so I hope Xu Anhua can wait for him.

Xu Anhua expressed his willingness to wait at the time, but now that "Shanghai Bund Sequel" has been filmed, Xu Anhua told him.

"I'm sorry Fa Zai, I have to change the male lead because Mr. Yang has spoken!"

Zhou Runfa looked confused: "Why?"

Xu Anhua said helplessly: "In the trainee class run by Baiyang Company, two trainees, Liu Hua and Zhang Xueyou, graduated, and the company decided to support them. I happened to be preparing for a new film, and Mr. Yang personally spoke and appointed Liu Hua to play the male role. Number one.”

When Zhou Runfa heard this, he could only shout that it was bad luck. Xu Anhua said apologetically: "I'm really sorry. There is nothing I can do this time. I will definitely ask you to cooperate next time!"

Zhou Runfa forced a smile and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. Ah Hua, you don't have to blame yourself."

Zhou Runfa returned to the company depressed, and Fang Yihua's secretary suddenly found him and said that Fang Yihua wanted to see him.

Zhou Runfa came to Fang Yihua's office and asked, "Aunt Six, do you have anything to do with me?"

Fang Yihua said with a smile: "Are you and Alian doing well now?"

Zhou Runfa nodded and said, "It's not bad!"

Fang Yihua said: "I hid her in the past because of your future. I hope you can understand."

Fang Yihua didn't feel that what he did was wrong. At that time, Zhou Runfa had already become popular, and Chen Yulian was just a newcomer. If the two of them got together, they would definitely have an impact on Zhou Runfa.

Later, they did not announce their relationship, and Zhou Runfa also became famous with "Shanghai Bund", which proved that she was right!

Zhou Run laughed and said: "Sixth Aunt, this matter is over. What you did at that time was also for my own good. I can understand it."

Fang Yihua nodded and sighed: "I just didn't expect that I missed it. It turns out that Alian is also a talent. After being poached by Yang Ye, she became very popular."

Zhou Runfa said strangely: "Sixth Aunt, what exactly do you want to say?"

Fang Yihua said: "I want to say that it would be awkward if you two belong to two companies. If you are in the same company..."

Zhou Runfa understood: "You want me to help persuade Alian to switch to Wireless?"

Fang Yihua beamed: "That's right! If Alan is willing to come, the company will pay the liquidated damages. I can also promise to work hard to create a drama for you two, and let you two play a couple in the drama. As long as your on-screen couple The image is deeply rooted in the hearts of the audience. When the time comes, there will be no need to hide the date. Even if it is made public, it will not affect the popularity. What do you think?"

Zhou Runfa thought to himself: This is quite interesting. I've been so busy filming every day lately that I can't even see Sister Lotus a few times a year.

If two people are in the same company and play a couple in a drama, wouldn't it mean that they can meet Lian Mei without having to miss work, getting the best of both worlds?

Thinking of this, Zhou Run laughed and said, "I'll go back and check out Sister Lian's story, but I can't guarantee that she will come over."

Fang Yihua thought to herself, you are Chen Yulian's boyfriend. If you can't influence her, who can influence her?

He smiled and said, "It's natural. If she doesn't want to, forget it. There's no need to force it."

Zhou Runfa stood up and said, "Then I'll leave first!"

After leaving Fang Yihua's office, Zhou Runfa went back to take a shower, changed into clean clothes, bought another bouquet of flowers, and quickly ran to ATV to visit Chen Yulian's class. (End of chapter)
