Hong Kong Entertainment: The King of Kung Fu
Chapter 489 Shamelessly Adding Drama
In 1986, at the Great Hall of the People.
The chief designer shook Wang An's hand and praised him, "You are very famous in the United States, and now you have a big family and a big business. This is all your hard work!"
This year was Wang An’s most glorious year.
His computer company has annual revenue of $30 billion and his personal wealth is $20 billion, ranking him fifth on the U.S. rich list and firmly the richest Chinese in the world.
He has become a cultural symbol of the United States and an idol and representative of Asian immigrants.
But that’s about it.
As personal computers became popular, his business of enterprise office systems shrank rapidly.
After learning from his mistakes, Wang An also began to transform into PC, but at that time IBM's PC was already very powerful.
Moreover, in order to develop, IBM adopted an open policy, uniting and cultivating a group of PC-compatible equipment manufacturers, which became a loose but powerful alliance of IBM.
Wang An's life goal was to defeat IBM, and he entered the PC field relatively late, so the PC he developed was not compatible with IBM.
Wang An met with Bill Gates of Microsoft and Andy Grove of Intel successively, hoping that they would break away from the IBM alliance and join him.
This is of course a dream. Bill Gates' mother is an executive at IBM. How could he possibly leave IBM and get involved with Wang An?
Andy Grove once sought advice from Wang An in his early years, but was humiliated by Wang An's arrogance and he would not cooperate with Wang An.
Wang An was isolated and helpless, and lost 87 million US dollars a year. During the stock market crash, his wealth shrank by half in one day.
Later, his son Wang Lie, who inherited his position, chose to frantically exploit old customers in order to make money, resulting in a rapid loss of customers.
In just a few years, Wang Laboratories was gone.
Why did Yang Ye come to see Wang An?
Warmth is coming!
Yang Ye brought the "Loongson Operating System", which is no worse than the "Pengdusi Operating System".
Bill Gates is not compatible with you, so we are compatible with you.
American equipment manufacturers will not cooperate with you, but Chinese equipment manufacturers will.
It's like helping someone in need.
The mainland began to receive relevant computer technology in 1980, but Yang Ye delivered it slowly, like squeezing toothpaste.
On the one hand, it is impossible for the mainland to come up with everything all of a sudden. They still have to study this thing and cultivate relevant talents in the process.
On the other hand, what they got from Yang Ye was not actually too advanced and was basically in sync with American technology.
In fact, the computer researchers had no idea what Yang Ye had to do with this. They always believed that this was technology stolen by spies from a country.
In this way, after several years, China's computer business finally officially came to the fore.
They first popularized it domestically, then expanded to the Asia-Pacific region, and now they are very powerful in the Asia-Pacific region.
So it began to infiltrate Europe and the United States, competing with IBM and Microsoft.
Yang Ye is not a lobbyist for Loongson. He just knows Loongson's next strategy, so he took the lead in investing in Wang An.
If Wang An had listened to Yang Ye's advice, it would have become a bridgehead for Loongson to enter the United States.
What consequences will it cause? Will the United States be furious? That is none of Yang Ye’s business.
Anyway, he only invested tens of millions of dollars in Wang An.
If Wang An can keep steady, he will make a fortune!
If it cannot maintain stability, Wang Laboratories will just go bankrupt like in the original time and space.
Yang Ye's money was wasted.
Just drift, you can afford the loss!
In short, this incident is more or less a warning to the United States, so just watch the fun!
Yang Ye and Wang An left after drinking tea. Apart from making this suggestion, he didn't say anything more.
For example, Wang An’s son is useless, so he should be advised to hire a professional manager or something. It’s none of Yang Ye’s business.
Even if you tell me, people won’t want to hear it!
……
Zhong Chuhong said in a somewhat tangled tone: "Do you really want to kiss me?"
Yang Ye said as a matter of course: "What else?"
Yang Ye shamelessly added to the drama again. In the movie "Mojin: The Lost Tomb", there is a line that mentioned that on the night when the tomb-raiding lieutenant Baxiang broke up, Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang had sex.
Yang Ye wants to add this scene now!
"Okay, let's kiss... I don't want to take off my clothes or anything, do I?"
"No, just show your chest."
"Go to hell, I'd rather die than take a photo!"
"I'm the one showing it, not you."
"You?" Cherie Chung couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing at? I've dedicated myself to art and have even exposed my butt before, so what's the big deal about exposing my breasts?"
"Yes, yes, your butt is so sexy, the most beautiful butt in Hong Kong!"
"Would you like to touch it?"
"Do you charge money?"
"Others have to pay for touching, but if you touch, Ah Hong, I can even give you money!"
After hearing this, Zhong Chuhong actually touched it, then stretched out her hand and said, "Give me money!"
Yang Ye casually took out a hundred dollars and said, "No need for change!"
Zhong Chuhong took the money, her eyes sparkling: "I think your butt is going to swell up!"
As he said this, he put the money in his pocket and went to catch Yang Ye.
"You are such a money-grubber! Just touch it once!"
"No, that's too easy to earn!"
The two of them were playing catch and hide, and they started laughing and making a fuss.
As Zhong Chuhong gave chase, Yang Ye twisted his body and was already waiting there, and Zhong Chuhong crashed into his arms.
Zhong Chuhong was unexpectedly hugged by Yang Ye. Seeing him looking at her lovingly, her pretty face turned red and she quickly broke free.
The air suddenly became quiet, even a little awkward.
"Well... let's go shopping!" Yang Ye took the initiative to break the silence.
"Why do you want to go shopping?"
"Well... if we want to shoot an intimate scene, we need to develop some feelings first."
"Okay, where?"
Yang Ye thought for a moment: "In Autumn's Fairy Tale, you sit in a beautiful park, and an old man gives you a small yellow flower. How about going there?" "That place is not a park, but a riverside promenade on the bank of the East River in Manhattan!"
"You remember it very clearly!"
"Because the play is very touching, I have watched it many times myself, so I remember a lot of things!"
"Let's go!"
……
Yang Ye and Zhong Chuhong came to the filming location of "Autumn Fairy Tale", the riverside promenade, and found the bench!
Yang Ye sat on a chair, casually put his arm around Zhong Chuhong's shoulders, and said with a nostalgic tone: "I remember that shot was very beautiful, with yellow leaves floating in the air."
Chung Chu-hung laughed and said, "Because the movie is a story that takes place in autumn, but it wasn't autumn when we were filming, so those leaves are all fake!"
"Where's that little yellow flower?"
"That's true, it's everywhere, look!"
Yang Ye looked around and saw a cluster of small yellow flowers not far away, blooming vigorously in the spring breeze.
He walked over, picked a flower, put it in front of Zhong Chuhong, and said, "My dear, this is for you!"
"Thank you!"
Cherie Chung took the flower and a smile flashed across her face.
She had always been carefree and just treated Yang Ye as a good friend, but today, she suddenly noticed something strange and became a little unnatural.
Yang Ye found it very interesting that Zhong Chuhong seemed a little shy.
Because Cherie Chung has always been very straightforward, it is rare to see her being shy.
So, Yang Ye didn't say anything, and the two of them just sat there.
After a while, Yang Ye looked at the little yellow flower in Zhong Chuhong's hand, suddenly remembered a song, and couldn't help humming it.
He just hummed a few times and didn't sing, but Cherie Chung thought the tune was very nice and couldn't help asking, "What are you singing?"
“Ah?” Yang Ye suddenly remembered that this song had never appeared in this world, so he said, “Just hum it a few times!”
“Are you writing a song?”
"I guess so!" Yang Ye nodded reluctantly.
"Can I listen to it?" Cherie Chung was very interested.
"Okay!" Yang Ye said, and sang two lines.
"The little yellow flower of the story has been floating since the year I was born. The swing of childhood has been swinging with my memory until now... just these two sentences!"
Zhong Chuhong listened to the song sung by Yang Ye, looked at the little yellow flower in her hand, and thought, it turns out that he was speaking from his heart!
"I'll sing this song for you after I finish writing it!"
"Okay!"
Yang Ye stood up, pulled Zhong Chuhong and said, "Let's go!"
"Where to go?"
"Go to that little restaurant on the beach at the end of the movie. I want to have dinner there!"
"There, it's on an island."
"Is there a little restaurant over there?"
“Yes, there is, but it’s not called Spmpan!”
"As long as you have it!"
……
The last scene of "An Autumn's Tale" was filmed at the famous Coney Island.
This island was once extremely prosperous, but in the 1980s and 1990s, it had declined greatly and not many people came here.
That’s why there are shabby little restaurants like those in the movies.
It was already evening when the two arrived at Coney Island.
They walked leisurely on the beach, and the breeze from the Atlantic Ocean was very comfortable.
The small restaurant soon appeared, and Yang Ye said, "Didn't you say that this restaurant is not called Spmpan?"
Zhong Chuhong was very surprised and said, "We made that sign ourselves when we were filming the movie. It turns out they kept it!"
"Interesting, let's go and eat!"
The two arrived at Spmpan and were immediately recognized.
There were actually more than a dozen Chinese people eating in this small restaurant.
"You are Yang Ye!"
"You are Hong Gu!"
"Wow, are you guys dating?"
The two of them had no choice but to greet the diners with a smile, and then found a seat and sat down.
While signing for people, I asked the boss, what is going on?
It turns out that after the release of "An Autumn's Tale", this small restaurant became popular in the Chinese world.
Many people come here specifically to check in when they arrive in New York.
That’s why they can see so many Chinese people!
The boss was very happy to see Cherie Chung.
Because Cherie Chung's movies brought a lot of business to his small restaurant.
He decided to treat Cherie Chung and Yang Ye to a free dinner.
Yang Ye ate the fried fish fillet given by the boss and said happily: "I didn't expect to get a free meal!"
Chung Chu-hung herself was a little confused and said, "I didn't expect that a movie would be remembered by so many people."
Yang Ye said: "A good movie can touch people's hearts and even make them remember it for a lifetime!"
Zhong Chuhong asked: "Will our movie also have this?"
Yang Ye shook his head and said, "No, our movies will only make people happy, but after the happiness, there may be nothing left."
"what?"
"What? I only know how to make cool movies!"
"That's not the case. Your movie has beautiful scenes and exciting fighting scenes, which are indeed very enjoyable, but it's not that simple. In fact, there is a lot of thinking behind it, which I think is very profound."
Yang Ye sighed and said, "Actually, when it comes to the scene we are going to shoot tomorrow, there is a deeper meaning behind it."
"Ah? What's the meaning?"
"Actually... there's no need to shoot this scene. I added it on purpose. I wanted to take this opportunity to kiss you." (End of this chapter)
