Hong Kong Entertainment: The King of Kung Fu

St Paul's Cathedral, London.

The Queen personally awarded Yang Ye a knight's medal.

When Yang Ye returns to Hong Kong, those people will have to call him Sir Yang.

Yang Ye used to be a rent collector in Kowloon Walled City, so it was fine for people to call him Young Master Yang.

Later, when he entered the entertainment industry, the nickname spread like wildfire and everyone called him that. Those who didn't know him well thought he was a super rich second-generation.

In fact, in a sense, he can also be considered the second generation. He was the first generation in his previous life, and he is the second generation in this life.

He is already in his thirties and not young anymore, but those people still call him Young Master Yang, which is weird.

Later, because he held a party with two sluts, Madonna and Seiko Matsuda, he was nicknamed "The Condor Hero", and some people also called him Yang Juxia.

This nickname is actually quite cool for men, but it is not convenient to mention in formal occasions.

Although fans later changed their name to "Giant Hero", they publicly announced that this name was not to say that Yang Ye's thing was huge, but that he was a kung fu master and action superstar, and therefore worthy of the name "Giant Hero".

Now that he has this medal, it is much more convenient to address him. In formal occasions, he is Sir Yang.

And from today on, his fans will start calling him Lord Yang.

After becoming a lord, he hadn’t seen any other benefits yet, but there was one thing that made Yang Ye feel more at ease.

That is... Lord Wei has seven wives, so what if I, Lord Yang, have more than a dozen wives?
Although Lord Wei is a real duke, Lord Yang... is nothing!
……

"Enemy at the Gates" is a film crew composed of multinational forces. As for going to Berlin to participate in the exhibition, everyone confirmed the date, went there separately, and then met up in West Berlin.

After receiving the medal, Yang Ye did not stay in London for long, but went directly to East Germany and then arrived in West Berlin.

Yang Ye had heard of the Berlin Wall in his previous life, and always thought that East Germany and West Germany were split in the middle, with the capital in each half.

Later I realized that this was the correct meaning, but it was not what he had in mind.

Because West Berlin is an enclave!
After World War II, the Allies divided Germany up.

East Germany and East Berlin were occupied by the Soviet Union, while West Germany and West Berlin were divided and occupied by the United States, Britain and France.

Since the entire city of Berlin was located in Soviet-controlled East Germany, the West Berlin enclave was created.

After arriving in West Berlin, Yang Ye went to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel where he was staying. He arrived early and the others had not yet arrived.

Because I have to attend the Berlin Film Festival, I can't go home for the Spring Festival this year.

After all, he is the male lead, so he has to come.

At night, Yang Ye sat alone in front of the window, looking at the night view outside, and suddenly felt a little comfortable.

Over the years, no matter where he went, he was accompanied by all kinds of women.

It is a rare time to be alone like today!
For some reason, he suddenly felt very relaxed.

“Actually, it’s pretty good without a woman!” Yang Ye sighed.

"Ding dong!" The doorbell rang.

Damn it, I just said it was great not to have women, and now women are here, Yang Ye complained and ran to open the door.

Thanks to his superpowers, he knew it was Adjani outside without opening the door. The movie starring Adjani was also shortlisted for the Berlin Film Festival.

The door opened, and a girl threw herself into his arms, shouting happily, "Daddy!"

Yang Ye was very surprised and hugged the girl and shouted, "Yang Xi!"

Yang Ye was unaware of Yang Xi, because his daughter did not exist in the original time and space.

"Do you miss me and Mom?"

"Of course!"

Yang Ye held his daughter in his arms, kissed Ajani outside the door, and asked, "Why are you here?"

Adjani said calmly: "I came to Berlin to participate in the exhibition. I know your film was also shortlisted. Elaine missed you very much, so I brought her here!"

Yang Xi said excitedly: "Mom said we can celebrate Chinese New Year together!"

"Then daddy will make dumplings for you!"

“I want some spring rolls too!”

"no problem!"

……

"Isabel, I missed you so much!"

It was late at night and Yang Xi fell asleep. Yang Ye hugged Ajiani and whispered in her ear.

Ajani was unmoved. You were out there having a blast, and now you say you miss me? You miss your mom selling fried dough twists!

Yang Ye didn't care about all that and started to touch this French Rose.

If the enemy doesn't move, I will move.

Yang Ye had seen countless women and was extremely good at playing with them. Soon, Ajani responded fiercely.

That night, Yang Ye used all his skills to make the most beautiful woman in France feel comfortable.

Once they are comfortable, they will be well-behaved. At least in front of their daughter, the two of them still look very affectionate!

A day later, Jean-Jacques, the director of "Enemy at the Gates", and its leading actress Irina also arrived in Berlin.

Yang Ye generously introduced the Russian goddess: "This is my love, French actress Ms. Isabelle Adjani, and this is our daughter, Irina Yang Adjani!" Irina was surprised and said: "I didn't expect that you two are a couple and have such a lovely daughter!"

Anjani enjoys a great reputation in the world film industry, and Irina certainly knows her.

But the fact that Ajani and Yang Ye had a daughter still found it incredible to her.

Although Irina had had sex with Yang Ye before, it was just a one-night stand.

On the night when the film was finished, this talented oriental handsome guy proposed to her and she did not refuse.

Looking back on it later, the experience of that night was quite wonderful.

Russian girls are passionate and unrestrained, and when it comes to affairs, it’s hard to tell who will be playing with whom!

So Yang Ye calmly introduced Ajani and Yang Xi to Irina. Irina had no other emotions except surprise!
She even took advantage of Ajani not paying attention and whispered in Yang Ye's ear: "Dear Yang, it turns out you have a wife. I thought we could continue our relationship!"

Yang Ye said shamelessly: "I am happy to serve you, ma'am!"

"Oh, you are so bold!"

Anjelica Hussein now takes on fewer roles than in the original time and space, because she is not short of money and only takes roles out of interest.

She also had to attend to United Artists' affairs, so she didn't have much time, and therefore only took on a drama once every one or two years.

The film nominated this time is "Camille Claudel", which tells the story of French female sculptor Camille Claudel's life of crazy love.

This kind of biographical role with a bit of madness is tailor-made for Anjelica Hussein, and she plays it with ease and to perfection.

The film that first made her famous, "The Story of Adele Hugo", is also a film of this type.

Since they were not in the same crew, everyone started to busy themselves with their own things.

Yang Xi hasn't seen her father for a long time, so she would rather follow Yang Ye!

Yang Ye did not hide anything and took Yang Xi with him wherever he went.

As a result, many people knew that he had a lovely daughter.

Yang Ye had a lot of acquaintances at this year's Berlin Film Festival.

In addition to Adjani, who was nominated for "Camille Claudel".

The crew of the Hollywood movie "Rain Man" also came to Berlin, and Tom Cruise was the leading actor of the movie.

The movie "Rain Man" is a bit embarrassing now. It is a very classic movie and there is a high chance it will win the Golden Bear this year.

But... people were surprised to find that the character played by Dustin Hoffman in the movie "Rain Man" was somewhat similar to Gao Jin played by Yang Ye in "God of Gamblers".

Especially in terms of acting, Dustin Hoffman's performance is exactly the same as Gao Jin's performance after losing his memory.

So, some people think that Dustin Hoffman is imitating Yang Ye!
The worst thing is that there is also a plot in "Rain Man" where people go to a casino to gamble, and the way Tom Cruise touches the ring is exactly the same as the way Yang Ye touches the ring.

This further proves that "Rain Man" plagiarized "God of Gamblers"!
Of course, the film company does not admit plagiarism, because the two films are only similar in some plots, so it is a bit unfair to accuse them of plagiarism.

But the terrible thing is that Dustin Hoffman's performance clearly imitated Yang Ye, and anyone with eyes could see it.

This was a big blow to Dustin Hoffman's reputation. After all, he was a Hollywood movie star, but it was unacceptable for him to imitate an Oriental junior in his acting!

Dustin Hoffman was wronged, he had never watched "God of Gamblers".

Although Yang Ye is very famous, if he wants his films to be released on a large scale in North America, he can basically only rely on action movies. If he plays anything else, the Americans will not recognize him.

Therefore, "God of Gamblers" was only released on a small scale in North America, the box office was not high, and the income mainly came from videotapes.

Dustin Hoffman had never even heard of the movie.

As for Tom Cruise, Yang Ye was his Kung Fu teacher. It was understandable for a student to imitate his teacher, and no one took it seriously.

In short, "God of Gamblers" was made by Fatty Wang using his expertise in gambling films and grafting some plots from "Rain Man".

And Chow Yun-fat's performance was clearly modeled after Dustin Hoffman.

This is just like... the later "Love Apartment" madly copying "Friends".

Chen Chichi and his friends are a group of young people, so it’s nothing. But for an actor of movie star level like Dustin Hoffman, it’s completely different.

All in all, the whole thing has turned upside down now, and Dustin Hoffman is very embarrassed and feels very wronged.

He knew that Yang Ye would come to Berlin, so he didn't want to come at all, but in order to promote the movie, he had to come!

Yang Ye even suspected that after the news of "Rain Man" plagiarizing "God of Gamblers" spread, Yang Ye was the real culprit.

Can this movie... still win the Golden Bear?

In addition to "Rain Man", another famous Hollywood movie "The Untold Story" also came to West Berlin.

Its leading actress is Jodie Foster, an actress Yang Ye liked very much in his previous life.

Chow Yun-fat later starred in a movie called "Anna and the King" with Judy.

Judy has superb acting skills and is extremely talented, and is Anjani's main rival in the competition for the Best Actress award.

In addition, Yang Ye’s friends, Japanese director Yoji Yamada and actress Hiroko Yakushimaru, also came to West Berlin with their work “City Heroes”.

This time, Chinese director Wu Ziniu also came to the exhibition with his work "The Evening Bell".

And on this year’s jury list, there is also the little poetry master, Brother Kaizi!

Although many Chinese audiences look down on Brother Kaizi, thinking that he is seeking fame and reputation, and even think that "Farewell My Concubine" was filmed by his father.

But to be honest, Brother Kaizi still has some status in the international film industry! (End of this chapter)
