Xiangjiang old events [entertainment circle]

Chapter 228 Road Construction Maniac

In Xiangjiang in the 80s, it is reasonable to say that the happy ending should be more popular-but what is strange is that for the final ending fabricated by Su Yun, the other three parties reached a consensus after discussion.

There is no other reason. The meaning of the name of the character "Warner" is the best explanation for their refusal to have a happy ending: Xiangjiang in this period is both foreign and xenophobic. While envious of Hollywood movie box office, it insists on its own local movies. Therefore, no matter how fierce their internal struggle is, they will not send out their own resources and talents.

In particular, the principals of these three film companies, when looking at the box office data, always have a bit of arrogance from filmmakers.

This point was obvious back then: when Su Yun was named by Taiwan Island for helping Tangcheng, even though she belonged to Jiahe, the deadly enemy, the Zhao family at that time still united with other local families in Xiangjiang at that time. The small film companies jointly signed the letter; the reason is not only to prevent Taiwan Island from overly controlling the right to speak in Hong Kong's film creation, but also to protect the "insiders" of the newcomers who came out of the same place.

Probably this is the hidden attribute of the Chinese people's practice, that you have no self in the country, but you have no self when you go out, but your brothers fight outside the wall to resist their insults...

Of course, if there are enough interests to drive, these film companies can still temporarily turn enemies into friends in China, and work together to earn money from box office data.

"My Three Dead Ex-Husbands" has the joint marketing of the three giants of Xiangjiang Film Company, and the storyline and cast are novel and gimmick enough. Su Yun basically doesn't worry about its box office problem—not to mention the rush of lovers. This new movie has been reaping Xiangjiang's box office very well, and it paid back its capital in less than a week.

After the follow-up release to the Taiwan Island market and the Southeast Asian market, and then fully covering the overseas markets of Zhao and Jiahe, such as those scattered theaters in North America, Europe and other places, this film will step on the afterglow of the Spring Festival and the sweet atmosphere of Valentine's Day. , From the very beginning, it has set a vulgar and elegant goal, and all efforts are aimed at making money. The new movie will inevitably accumulate an astonishing box office figure.

Not to mention anything else, just the groom's battle of counting stars, many people already feel that it is worth the fare: No matter in the past or in the future, it is very difficult to meet most of the male artists in the Hong Kong circle when they are in their prime. It's a great gathering.

It's a pity that there are fewer female artists. Except for the cameos in the first wedding in the opening title of the movie, there are basically few female characters in the follow-up.

However, there was Mary Su before and Mei Yanshuang after, and other female artists of the same period, it is indeed difficult to compete with them in the rising sun.

Su Yun is well aware of the reason why all eggs cannot be put in the same basket: the length of a film is limited, and as the person who holds the right to shoot and final cut, it takes a lot of effort to choose and give up. .

"My Three Dead Ex-Husbands" already has four leading male artists as the main characters. Adding a mess of female characters will lead to confusion in the plot line. It is better to collect all the guest male artists and release them for a while. Create a grand feast of male faces, which is more attractive to those audiences who are already interested in this subject.

After finishing the collection of male entertainers in the Hong Kong entertainment circle, a collection of female entertainers in the Hong Kong entertainment circle will inevitably be prepared with corresponding themes—although Su Yun feels that she is straight-oriented, she can always have an unstoppable beautiful face. The attractiveness across genders made her, a standard-faced dog, start the allin mode of "I want it all"...

Maybe it's because the wind is getting better and better and everything is more prosperous. Su Yun has been very fulfilling these days. While monitoring her movie box office data, she can also take advantage of the occasional small free time to pick up the Zhao family this year. new movie library for .

It's a pity that, compared to Su Yun's successive successes, the "Blade Runner" that Zhao Rifu had given high hopes for was a fateful one.

There have been constant turmoil since the filming started. After finally reaching an agreement with the special effects department after Su Yun joined, which slowed down the loss of funds and made the production progress gradually on track, the subsequent filming and post-production also had many struggles. The release date of the film has been delayed again and again.

No, because the producer wanted to change the movie to a happy ending, which made both the director Ridley Scott and the lead actor Harrison Ford feel dissatisfied, and their work attitudes suddenly became lax. .

Knowing that this film, which invested a total of 1 million Hong Kong dollars, was troubled again, Su Yun had no choice but to put down the work at hand, quickly packed up the big and small bags, and simply explained to her family and friends, and then set up An overnight flight to America.

For Su Yun's arrival, director Ridley is very welcome: there was a clone character Mary in his script before, and he planned to let Su Yun play a guest role, but because of the schedule problem and financial constraints of both parties, he had to reluctantly delete it. Now that Su Yun has "cast herself into the net", she can just join the current re-shooting work - because there were too many moths during the filming of this film, when the first rough cut was sent back to Xiangjiang, she was in charge of reviewing Su Yun and Zhao Liming caught a lot of cheating scenes.

So much money has been invested in it before, there is no reason to back down when it comes to the door!

Ever since, Zhao had no choice but to set aside another sum of money, planning to go over to supervise the re-shooting work in the next year.

If it hadn't been for "Blade Runner" that almost emptied the funds available on the books, the Zhao family might not have accepted the invitation of the real estate company so easily. Yicheng collaborated in filming.

Of course, the most important thing is that this time, Su Yun brought the material he needed the most - the real shot record of the Kowloon Walled City in Xiangjiang.

As for Mary, the replicant role that Su Yun is going to play in the movie, she fled into a dank, dark, chaotic place modeled on the Kowloon Walled City in Xiangjiang after a glimpse of it.

Among the themes of "cyberpunk", there are not only futuristic metropolises with a sense of technology based on international metropolises such as Los Angeles, but also correspondingly dark future slums based on slums around the world.

Even compared to those futuristic metropolises full of sci-fi, those futuristic slums that symbolize chaos and disorder are even more popular among people.

Although "Blade Runner" originally had some shots of the city based on the Kowloon Walled City in Hong Kong, director Ridley has always regretted that this part can only be modeled using graphic materials, and cannot be added to the real scene. .

Now, after receiving the news from Su Yun that Zhao's filming of "The Man Who Comes Out of the Walled City" this year, and that some of the video material was filmed on-site in the Kowloon Walled City in Xiangjiang, Ridley is naturally ecstatic.

I spent so much effort and fought so many times with people from all walks of life, isn't it for this sci-fi masterpiece that strives for perfection?

Seeing Ridley's joyful appearance, Su Yun felt quite fortunate: The Kowloon Walled City of Xiangjiang has always been loved by many people from all over the world, but there is a risk of mixed fish and dragons, and it is difficult to enter the real scene shooting .

Among the few films that were actually filmed in the Kowloon Walled City, "Out of the Walled City", a film about the Walled City produced by Zhao Rifu and supervised by Fang Mona, is famous for its sharp themes, twists and turns of the story, and the ever-present The unrevealed core of the plot, which is like a trapped beast fighting, really challenges the three views of ordinary people so much that it has been repeatedly harmonized by relevant departments after it was released.

In later generations, it has been difficult to find the complete version of the original release of this film.

That is to say, Su Yun is close to the water and the timing is good, so that Zhao's new film library this year can pull out the full version and all the materials of "Out of the Walled City" that is waiting for the schedule.

It is quite normal for colleagues and friends in the same company to borrow useless materials from each other these days. For example, in the scene of driving in the countryside in "Blade Runner", Ridley used Su Yun's relationship from It was borrowed from the material library of "The Shining" in Kubrick's hand...

After Su Yun joined the group until she finished filming her little cameo, Zhao Liming, who secretly took a cover to go to Shenzhen City, finally came late with the sunshine of early spring.

It is probably because striving for ideals always makes people tireless. Compared with his hard-working but still quite out of place appearance in Xiangjiang, after going to Shenzhen City, he seems to be in high spirits much.

Even Zhao Liming was very happy to tell Su Yun that because Shenzhen City believed that he was dedicated to serving the motherland, the relevant person in charge gave him the greatest preferential treatment and convenience in terms of policies as much as possible, allowing him to achieve more than originally planned. Plan faster and more progress.

"The people over there are simple and sincere. If they are in Xiangjiang or other places, people like me who take the initiative to come to the door to seek cooperation, that attitude is so relaxed... It's like a white dove seeing people!" The so-called " "White pigeon eyes" is derived from the habit of white pigeons to choose good eaves to live in and look down on dilapidated land, and the meaning of snobbery and watching people order dishes is derived. Zhao Liming was the most proud of his youth and experienced pioneering struggles with his father, uncles, cousins ​​and others. In the critical development period of grabbing business, I remember the old things of lowering my profile and talking about business the most.

When I was used to talking about business with others in a low voice, I suddenly met a partner who I gave very sincerely, and they also responded with [-]% sincerity. This moved a young man like Zhao Liming who still believed in ideals.

"However, although the Shenzhen market has developed rapidly because of the preferential policies, it has also attracted many businessmen who want to take advantage of this opportunity to speculate in real estate and land." Zhao Liming wants to start his ideal housing business in Shenzhen Naturally, they are enemies of those traditional real estate developers who exploit the people by speculating houses and land, so it is unavoidable that they secretly inquired about the information of their counterparts, "Not only those famous real estate companies in Xiangjiang Predators, other places are also here..."

"It should have been expected early on. It's impossible for these people not to come to such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Su Yun sneered: From the 60s to the future, as long as you can keep your conscience, real estate is bound to be a huge profiteering industry , so it is absolutely impossible for those businessmen to miss the opportunity to turn the Shenzhen real estate market into the second Xiangjiang real estate market.

"But the scariest thing now is not the big bosses at the top, but the followers at the middle and lower levels who think they have found a chance to make a fortune..." Zhao Liming sighed, "So, the person in charge over there wants me to help Find some video materials about real estate and land speculation, and use them as negative teaching materials to warn the public."

"Okay, I'll pick with you when we go back." Su Yun has seen the crazy real estate market in later generations, and she has a deeper understanding of this situation that is only "predicted" than many people who complain about the gradual rise of housing prices in this era.

"Don't be so serious." Zhao Liming couldn't help laughing at Su Yun's look of bitterness and hatred, "Besides fighting with them, we still have a lot of good news and good teammates here. Yes, don't worry too much."

"By the way, do you still remember that you donated half of the profits from the previous movies as funds for post-disaster reconstruction?"

"Oh, how are you doing now?" Su Yun, who had no time or chance to go back to check the construction, asked hastily.

Although her half of the profit is an astronomical figure in the eyes of ordinary people, it can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket when used for infrastructure. Therefore, Su Yun has proposed an arrangement for this fund: except for some necessary resettlement houses, the rest They are all involved in the construction of roads.

What I want is to speed up the progress of the revival: No matter what the revival plan is to do, the smoothness of the road is the key to the speed of implementation of the plan.

Especially in those relatively remote areas, after the roads are opened, not only the human and material resources for rescue can be delivered as quickly as possible; moreover, these roads will also become a place for residents in remote areas to explore the vast world of the outside world in the days to come. way.

Considering that Su Yun is reluctant to sign these roads, but the relevant departments are unwilling to let such a philanthropist remain unknown, they simply use the feature of simplicity and reality, and choose the word "Su" which has a similar pronunciation to "Su" The characters form "Suyun Road", and then prefix them with local place names for regional division.

Since then, in the future, "Suyun Road in XX Province", "Suyun Road in XX City", "Suyun Road in XX County", "Suyun Road in XX Village" and even "Suyun Road in XX Village" will spread all over the country. "Suyun Road in the Autonomous Region" started a momentum of sparks blooming everywhere.

Build your own road so that everyone has a way to go—this is the reason why Su Yun was dubbed "the road-building madman" by the public in later generations.

From the real path to the path of development, she has truly fulfilled the promise she made on that cold autumn rainy night, and has become the leader of the new generation that her predecessors expected to see.
