Chapter 425 Planning "Film Biweekly"

Wang Xiaohu was not in a hurry when he failed to complete the task assigned by his wife. After returning home, he calmly said to his wife: "As Laodou Zha said, the child's name is not simply bad, nor is it nice to hear. It can only be determined based on the child's birth date, horoscope, yin-yang and five elements, etc., and it will have a major impact on the child's personality, intelligence, marriage, health, and career throughout his life, so this matter must wait for our son to be born before we can decide."

At the moment, Wang Xiaohu has learned and sold all the naming theory that Jin Yong said, even with gestures, not to mention, Zhao Yazhi really believed it.So the question of the name has been postponed for the time being. (Give me a tidy answer in the book review area as soon as possible. By the way, when I named Xiao Xiaomi, I searched it on Baidu. It hasn’t been so hard. It shows how serious I am. Give me a result.)
Three of the four major satellite companies under Xiehe have achieved fruitful results this year. When the New Year’s Day in 1976 came, Yi Xiujia, a professional film critic for Ming Pao Weekly, wrote: The past year was the year of Wang Xiaohu, and Xiehe company showed everyone last year With the strong vitality of its four companies, they have provided Hong Kong people with countless joys, emotions, and wonderful action comedies.From a certain aspect, you can clearly see that Wang Xiaohu has been making efforts to promote the prosperity of local films in Hong Kong. "Lin Shirong" and "Half a Catty" firmly occupied the top ten grossing spots last year, and "Seven Little Fortunes" also became The highest-grossing literary film since the opening of Hong Kong, not to mention the "Jaws" it invested in swept the entire North American box office.Through observation, it can be found that the annual output of Wang Xiaohu's works has been shrinking in recent years, but each film is a high-quality production. In the vacuum era where the Hong Kong film market is sluggish, Wang Xiaohu is the backbone of Hong Kong movies!
Since Jin Yong and Wang Xiaohu had a close relationship two years ago, "Ming Pao" and "Ming Pao Weekly" have opened up a column for film reviews. Yi Xiujia is responsible for this special column, mainly commenting on current Hong Kong and even Hollywood films. Straight to the point, without sloppiness at all, he has quite a bit of reputation in the industry and is known as the most professional film critic in Hong Kong.

When he was free, Wang Xiaohu went to Deru Teahouse to "learn" Zhouyi Metaphysics from Jin Yong (the teahouse that Jin Yong often goes to, nonsense.), to add bricks and tiles to his road to becoming a "magic stick", not to mention, after coming down several times, he He can also speak well, and he has the potential of a magic stick. Of course, his magic stick has real materials, and he focuses on predicting major events.

"Dou, let's cooperate and set up a special film review periodical." Wang Xiaohu suggested: "Currently, Hong Kong newspapers and periodicals do not have professional and authoritative film reviews. It just so happens that Yi Xiujia on your side has accumulated some Popularity, it is better to be transferred to be the editor-in-chief of the journal."

"Huh? There is indeed a phenomenon of uneven film periodicals. The suggestion you said is still good." Jin Yong pondered: "It doesn't matter if you transfer Yixiu Jia, but the staff of "Ming Pao" is still a little nervous. I'm afraid he can't do it alone."

"Hehe, then you can transfer someone who can shake the scene." Wang Xiaohu said with a smile: "I heard that there was a man named Yu Yongjian in your early years, Lao Dou, who was very good at film review periodicals. Why don't we transfer here together, and I'll recruit some idlers from Uncle Six to set up a "Film Biweekly."

Jin Yong frowned when he heard the words, and after watching Wang Xiaohu for a long time, he smiled wryly and said, "I'm afraid you have planned this for a long time, right? Even the news of the famous film critic Yu Yongjian in the early years has been dug out?"

"Hey." Wang Xiaohu rubbed his nose in embarrassment. Indeed, he has long had the idea of ​​establishing "Film Biweekly". After all, this is the only one in Hong Kong that spans 20 years and witnesses the historical development of the local film industry. Authentic Film Magazine.Moreover, the famous Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony, known as the Oriental Oscar, was also founded by "Film Biweekly".

Wang Xiaohu proposed the establishment of "Film Biweekly" today, which can be said to have put in a lot of effort, and he is paving the way for the establishment of the Hong Kong Film Awards step by step.

And this person named Yu Yongjian, Wang Xiaohu has also heard of it for a long time. As early as the mid-60s, he was a famous film critic who was active in the Hong Kong film industry. I have watched it more than three times, and have a superhuman memory, able to retell every movie and every actor, and have unique comments and insights.It was this person who proposed the far-reaching midnight premiere, which shows his influence in the film industry.

In the early 70s, Yu Yongjian gradually withdrew from the film critics and switched to Jin Yong's "Ming Pao". In the past few years, he has been the planning director of the entertainment section in obscurity. He will seriously review almost every entertainment section. Yixiujia is The apprentice that Yu Yongjian brought out by hand.

These things about Chen Zhima and rotten millet were only known to Wang Xiaohu and Yi Xiujia when they were free to chat, otherwise he wouldn't be so confident asking for someone from Jin Yong today.

"Give me a plan, and after reviewing it, I will discuss it with the company's shareholders and give you a clear answer." Jin Yong is very cautious about this matter, after all, "Ming Pao" is no longer just his own business.

"Okay." Wang Xiaohu nodded. He knows that "Ming Pao" has a great influence in Southeast Asia, and he also knows that if "Ming Pao" quits a publication rashly, if the quality of the publication is not good, it will be bad for "Ming Pao itself." Influenced by the influence, who makes people rely on newspapers for food? Naturally, quality is regarded as life.

"Have you talked with Chuan Xia on the phone recently?" Wang Xiaohu asked cautiously.

Jin Yong smiled and said: "Yes. I had an in-depth exchange with him. Although our father and son could not reach an agreement on some aspects, we had a good conversation. During the Chinese New Year, I plan to share some topics with him. Listen, I hope he can forgive me for hurting him back then."

"Well, although some things are very difficult, or everyone is unwilling to face them directly, in fact, it's nothing to think about after the fact. If the root cause of the problem can be solved and the so-called face of each other can be put aside, everyone will be happy."

Wang Xiaohu said with deep emotion, which surprised Jin Yong, "Xiaohu, how old are you this year?"

"I was born on October 1954, 10, and I'm not even 31 years old yet." Wang Xiaohu said, "What are you asking me for? My birthday is long gone. Do you want to give me red envelopes?"

What is Wang Xiaohu's birthday? He himself does not know. In his previous life, his birthday was April 4th, but in this life he is an orphan. No one told him that he was born in the year of the monkey, so in his subconscious mind, he thought of the day when he was reborn. As his birthday, and in the years of rebirth, he has never had a birthday.Occasionally, when Zhao Yazhi mentioned it, he would smile wryly and say something about his birthday, he is no longer a child.

"Do you want a red envelope?" Jin Yong didn't expect Wang Xiaohu to be so straightforward, so he fished out a few hundred Hong Kong dollars from his jacket pocket in embarrassment and said, "I never bring big bills when I go out, so you can accept these few hundred dollars, but I can I can't find the red envelope and seal it for you."

"Old Dou, I was joking." Wang Xiaohu said with a smile, "I'm just wondering why you asked my age."

"Hehe, I always feel that you don't want to be 20 years old at all. Whether it's what you say or what you do, it gives me the illusion that you have gone through a lot." Jin Yong expressed his feelings and counted Wang Xiaohu's achievements in the past few years. , every movie is a high-quality production, and can maintain N times the profit. He has entered the ranks of Hong Kong's top ten richest people at a young age, and even made a fortune in Hollywood. This kind of courage is not at all like 20 years old what people do.

"This." Wang Xiaohu was at a loss for words, scratched his head and said quickly: "Maybe it's because I'm lucky, maybe you won't believe me if I tell you, the inspiration for almost every script of mine comes from dreams." Of course, it is a vague concept, which I created through artistic processing and commercial elements."

"Really?" Jin Yong asked suspiciously.

Wang Xiaohu nodded heavily, and there was no sign of lying on his face, "This is a secret of mine, I hope you can keep it a secret for me."

"Don't worry about this, I'm not the kind of three aunts and four wives." Jin Yong assured his mouth, but his heart was incomparably horrified. It turned out that this son's success was due to his daily communication with Zhou Gong, so he had to say yes. Miracle, it seems that my research on the metaphysics of the Book of Changes is still not thorough enough. Looking back at the Buddhist scriptures, it seems that there is some kind of scripture on mudra visualization that specifically records this aspect.

The two talked for a while, and before leaving, Wang Xiaohu said: "I will arrange for the release of "A Lang's Story" in the next few days. It tells the story of father and son. Look, maybe you can find a way to resolve the gap between you and the legend."

Jin Yong hummed, "I'll watch it, and I'll also talk to Yu Yongjian about the "Film Biweekly". If he's interested in this aspect, I'll let you know as soon as possible."

"Hey, I heard that Lao Yu has a bad temper, so I might ask Lao Dou to do it himself." Wang Xiaohu smiled, and then left Deru Tea House.

Immediately, Xiehe Company immediately arranged the promotion of "A Lang's Story". According to Wang Xiaohu's special instructions, Xu Junlong stepped up the promotion of the Taiwan market. After all, Taiwan is the main battlefield for literary films, and "A Lang's Story" has a strong literary atmosphere. How could his films fall into Taiwan, which is a great place to make money? Before the Golden Image Awards were established, he had to win a Golden Horse Award for fun.
