Hong Kong Entertainment: The King of Kung Fu

The first half of "My Sassy Girl" is a passable comedy.

Zhang Xueyou has great acting skills. The character he plays, A Niu, has a very loser vibe, and his various outrageous actions make people laugh to their heart's content.

What about Wang Zuxian? He is very brutal in the film, beating Zhang Xueyou up at every turn.

But she is not annoying at all. On the contrary, many viewers, especially men, think she is super cute.

"My Sassy Girl" is actually a movie made up of a collection of online jokes.

When those funny jokes were first serialized on the Internet, they were loved by countless netizens.

It has a very nerdy pedigree, but later Kwak Zairong made it into a movie, which was very popular and became a hit in Asia.

The awesome thing about this movie is that both the director and screenwriter are men, and it is a "feminist movie" shot from a man's perspective.

The heroine in the film, Song Mingxi, smokes, drinks, is wild and violent...but she is actually a very good girl.

Uh, this sentence sounds like a joke!

But...it mainly depends on who the girl is!
Avril Lavigne is said to have said something similar: "I have tattoos, I smoke, I drink, I swear, but I know I'm a good girl!"

Good girl or not, if I give you Avril, just tell me whether you want her or not.
The reason why my Sassy Girl is not annoying and even cute is mainly because she is Jun Ji-hyun/Wang Zu-hyun!
This is a world where appearance matters!
……

Apart from these bad habits, Song Mingxi in the movie has another side.

She is beautiful, pure, like a fairy!
She is very smart and wise, and she made the gangster put down his gun with just a few words. She is simply an expert negotiator.
She is kind and principled. She asks young people to give up their seats to the elderly on the subway, stops people from calling for X services, and stops people from littering cigarette butts in the park.

She comes from a good family and is multi-talented, she can play squash, kendo, piano, and dance;
She is very infatuated and always hides her sadness, looking very happy.

What kind of man can be with a girl like this?

The answer is... a loser!
You see, the sense of immersion is here.

……

So, as a loser, how can you pursue the goddess of your dreams?
Don't care about her past, understand the sadness in her heart, and try your best to heal her.

Skipping school to go to the playground for her, even though you never skipped school, not even to sleep in class;

You read her script, even though it was poorly written, but you still tried to read it and encourage her;

She asked you to jump into the lake, and you did, even though you couldn’t swim and nearly drowned;
He prepared a birthday gift for her, even though he encountered bandits and almost lost his life;
You sent her a terrible script, and the screenwriter vomited after reading it because it was so ugly. You were almost beaten, but luckily you ran away in time;

He often took her home on the subway and played games on the train, even if it meant being slapped in public;

Play squash with her, even if you keep getting hit in the face;

Practice swordplay with her, even if you always lose;
If she is uncomfortable wearing high heels, you should switch with her, even if others laugh at you;

It was really embarrassing to give her a rose in front of hundreds of her classmates, but when you see her sitting in front of the piano like a lady and playing "Canon", you feel like your soul is leaving your body.

Accompany her to the bar to drink, smoke, and dance, even though you don't know how to do any of these and even though you are an honest man.

She is almost cured and you seem useless and she doesn't need you anymore.

But as long as she calls and she needs you, you will go to her and serve her at any time.

Because she is your wild girlfriend, the first girlfriend you have had in your twenty years of being single.

Finally, she asks you to wait for three years. She says it takes three years to forget someone, and then she can be with you wholeheartedly.

You believe this kind of nonsense, so you really wait!

You finally licked... No, I waited for it.

It’s really fucking inspiring. The honest man took over successfully. Congratulations!

……

On the big screen!

Zhang Guorong, who played the blind date man, sat in front of Wang Zuxian with a smile on his face, clasped his hands and said:
“When Ah Niu left, he told me to follow ten rules. I have a good memory and I didn’t forget any of them.

First, don’t plan to make her gentle;
Second, don’t let her drink more than three glasses of wine, or she will hit you;

Always drink coffee in a cafe, never drink cola or orange juice;
If she hits you, you must pretend it hurts. If it really hurts, then pretend it's okay;

On the 100th day of your acquaintance, be sure to go to her school and give her a rose. She will like it very much.

You must learn to fencing and play squash;

Be prepared to go to jail at any time;

If she says she will kill you, don't take it seriously, it will make you feel better;
If her shoes are uncomfortable, you should exchange them with her.
She likes writing, so we should encourage her well.

……

When Zhang Guorong was reading the "Ten Rules of Love", the picture of the movie began to rotate.

The person sitting opposite Wang Zuxian suddenly became Zhang Xueyou.

The theme song "I Believe" sounded at the right time.

Wang Zuxian's eyes were filled with tears. She stood up from her chair, rushed out, crossed the noisy streets, and searched for Zhang Xueyou in the crowd.

Zhang Xueyou's singing level is really amazing. He sang this love song in a lingering and touching way, which moved all the audience members to silence and tears.

……

After "A Moment of Romance" and "Unforgettable", love movies directed by Johnnie To and written by Yang Ye have become a golden sign.

This time, "My Sassy Girl", as the first movie of the summer season, attracted a large number of viewers and achieved a good start for Baiyang Pictures!
The theme song "I Believe" sung by Zhang Xueyou has also become well-known and has helped the movie a lot!
The aftereffect of watching the movie is that many girls take pride in beating their boyfriends.

Zhang Xueyou even had to be a guest on the Hong Kong Radio Station to advise these girls to think twice, after all, "You are not Wang Zuxian!"

He also said on the radio: "Cherish the boy who always indulges you!" Wang Zuxian played Xiaoqian last year, and countless men expressed their willingness to be seduced by such a female ghost and would be willing to die for it.

This year, she played Song Mingxi, and her fists and long hair made countless boys fall in love with her, and they wished they could be beaten to death by her.

……

Wang Zuxian, who sealed thousands of demons among the young boys, is playing games in the dormitory.

There was a knock on the door. She kept her hands busy and shouted without turning her head, "Come in!"

Yang Ye walked into the room with a box in his hand, sat down on the chair next to Wang Zuxian, and said, "Xiaoxian, I have a gift for you!"

Several members of Girls' Generation have moved out, but Wang Zuxian has continued to live in the dormitory.

Because she felt that this place was very close to the company and the film set, and there were people dedicated to cleaning, so it was very convenient, and she was too lazy to move!

"Thank you, what is it?" Wang Zuxian paused the game.

"I said before that I would give you a gift, and now it's finally ready!"

"So you've always remembered it. After such a long time, I thought you had forgotten it long ago!"

"How could that be? When have I ever broken my promise to you?"

Wang Zuxian smiled brilliantly, took the box from Yang Ye, happily unpacked it, and immediately became extremely excited.

"Is this... a game console?"

"Yes, after I got the copyright of Tetris, I opened a game company specifically to develop this handheld game console, and now it has finally succeeded!"

The home console version of Tetris has been licensed to Atari. It was very popular after its launch, selling more than 10 million game cartridges and making a profit of over 100 million US dollars.

Games really make money, and movies and music can’t even come close to that!

Wang Zuxian was holding a black box, which was slightly smaller and thinner than a brick and could barely fit into his trouser pocket.

The name of this game console is printed at the bottom of the screen, it is called "Pocket Elf".

The back of the game console is printed with Kingsoft's logo!

"Poplar, Bluebird, Redman, Gold Mountain...Brother Ye, it turns out that the names of the companies you opened all have the same color!"

"Huh? Yes!" Yang Ye himself had never thought about this question.

Except for Baiyang, which is the name of the missile, the names of the following three companies all existed in the original time and space.

"How do I use this?"

"You need to insert the game card! There are three games, Tetris, Aircraft Wars, and Pac-Man. Which one do you want to play?"

"Tetris!"

Yang Ye inserted the game card into the console, installed four No. 5 batteries, and turned it on.

The joyful Russian classic song "The Peddler" rang out.

Yang Ye didn't let Wang Zuxian play with it, but started playing it himself first, under the pretext of demonstrating it to her.

The configuration of the Palm Elf is very poor. For example, the screen uses a reflective SNT LCD screen that only displays monochrome.

Yang Ye is not the only one making handheld game consoles. The United States, Japan, and Taiwan have all developed many models of handheld game consoles.

Many of them use state-of-the-art TFT screens that can display color.

After all, it has been eight years since Nintendo's first handheld game console, Game & Watch, was released, and now even color TVs have become popular.

But it doesn't matter. Low configuration has its advantages. It doesn't consume much power, and batteries are very expensive these days.

Amid the joyful music, Yang Ye's fingers danced rapidly, blocks were stacked up one by one, and then a stick was inserted to eliminate them instantly. It was so joyful.

After Yang Ye played for a while, Wang Zuxian was already very greedy, so Yang Ye handed the game console to her.

Wang Zuxian immediately started playing with all his heart.

This girl is good in everything except her self-control.

I eat non-stop and play games non-stop, and often I have to starve myself to lose weight just to take a role.

Sometimes I would play games all night long, and go to film with red eyes the next day, which would make the director furious.

Playing Tetris with a handheld game console is much more convenient than using a home console. Holding it in your hand, you feel very immersive, just like the feeling of playing games on your mobile phone later.

Wang Zuxian would restart the game after he died, and restart the game after he died. She didn’t know how long she had been playing. Suddenly, she heard Yang Ye whisper in her ear, saying weakly, “Xiaoxian!”

"Ah, what's wrong?" Wang Zuxian responded, his eyes still fixed on the game console, his fingers still pressing the buttons quickly.

"My legs are numb!"

"what?"

Wang Zuxian just realized that when Yang Ye was playing the game before, she sat on Yang Ye's lap for convenience.

So, when she was playing games, she was always held by Yang Ye.

Wang Zuxian blushed, pressed the pause button, and said, "I, I, I...how long have we been playing?"

Yang Ye looked at her red face and said with interest: "About two hours!"

Wang Zuxian stood up quickly, but his legs went weak and he cried out “Ouch!” and sat back in Yang Ye’s arms.

Yang Ye hugged her waist and asked, "What's the matter?"

"My legs are numb too!" (End of this chapter)
