1979 Golden Age

Chapter 148: Show-off

Before the change, China's civil aviation conditions were very poor, and the food on board was even worse, almost the same as that of a large canteen.

Deng Gong often complained that the bread made on the plane was all crumbs, and if you take one bite, it will fall apart in two bites.

After the reopening, Hong Kong's Maxim's Group was introduced to provide in-flight meals for international flights, and the quality was improved. Deng Gong also specially asked him to make croissants. He likes croissants, um...

Chen Qi also had a meal on the plane, and then he squinted and flew to Hong Kong very quickly.

Hong Kong is now Kai Tak Airport. This airport is very strange. It is located near the mountains and the sea, and is also next to a residential area. When the plane landed, everyone was shocked because the streets and buildings below were visible to the naked eye, and the clothes hanging on the rooftop could be seen...

There was a saying at that time that if you stood on the top floor of a building, you could sweep down the plane with a clothes pole.

The group got off the plane. The leftists deliberately kept a low profile. Only Chinese newspapers such as "Ta Kung Pao", "Wen Wei Po" and "Hong Kong Commercial Daily" came to take photos, and then they took a car straight to their residence.

Before Hong Kong's return to the motherland, many state-owned enterprises had taken root here, such as branches of Bank of China, China Travel Service, China Resources, etc. They had some industries under their subsidiaries, but they just didn't make them public.

A group of people checked into a hotel of similar nature. They shared a room. Chen Qi and Li Wenhua shared a room. Gong Xue and Ge Chunyan were the only two lesbians, so they naturally shared a room.

After some rest, it was soon evening.

Fu Qi held a small-scale reception dinner. Great Wall, Phoenix, Xinlian, and theaters all sent people there. Left-wing newspapers also sent several reporters, and a leader of the Xinhua News Agency's Hong Kong branch also came forward.

The Hong Kong Branch of Xinhua News Agency is the highest mainland organization in Hong Kong. It is a news unit in name. In fact, news business only accounts for a small part, and political tasks are the bulk.

The current president is Wang Kuang. He resigned in 1983 and was replaced by an old revolutionary named Xu. He was the one who was corrupted by capitalism and ran to the United States as mentioned above.

The president has a very high level and will not participate in such small activities. He is a small leader.

"I can't even remember the last time a film was introduced from the mainland. It seems to have been in the early 1960s. Twenty years have passed, and finally another domestic film has appeared in Hong Kong. I am very moved.

Although I have not seen this movie, it is said to be very exciting. I wish you success! "

Drinking and drinking each other, there is a lot of entertainment.

Fu Qi brought someone over and introduced: "This is the general manager of our theater company, Comrade Xu Dunle!"

"Hello, hello, I have long admired your name!"

Chen Qi greeted quickly.

Xu Dunle is a little older than Fu Qi, and has a head full of white hair. He is from Shantou and has been the general manager of the theater chain for more than ten years. He smiled and said: "You said I have been with you for a long time. Could it be that you have heard of me in the capital?"

"I have admired every senior who fought in Xiangjiang for a long time."

"Haha, you can talk! No wonder Fu Qi is full of praise for you."

Immediately, the two sat next to Chen Qi and started chatting.

"We have two leading theaters, Nanhua and Nanyang, so the outside world usually calls us Shuangnan Cinemas. At that time, we had no money, so the central government provided funds to purchase land and build theaters. Mr. Xia Yan personally wrote the script for us, and his support was very strong .

We lived up to our expectations. One year, we occupied six of the top ten box office spots.

Unfortunately, you all know what happened next. We didn’t produce it for several years, and theaters could only show model plays. We had accumulated a surplus of 10 million before, but it turned into a loss in the blink of an eye.

The country is not rich now, and there is little financial support. Fu Qi and others are not producing enough, so my theater chain has no movies to show and can only show old movies. Last year we showed "Liu Sanjie", which was a movie from 20 years ago.

Fortunately, "Fatal Turn" made money, and we have always supported each other. The profits from my theater chain will be taken back to them for filming, and they will use it to release the film after filming... In a place like Hong Kong, it is impossible not to be united! "

Xu Dunle recounted a past incident and said with a smile: "Hong Kong film companies will temporarily rent other theaters for key films. I have already negotiated for 8 theaters. Adding the original 8 theaters, there are 16 theaters, which is not inferior to Shaw Brothers, Jiahe.”

Fu Qi also said: "Tomorrow we will have a premiere at the Nanhua Theater. Some local media will come over, which is equivalent to a media venue. It will be officially released on February 3."

"Do we have any opponents at the same time?"

"Modern Bodyguard" by Xu Guanwen, "Happy Fairy Nest" by New Art City, and "The Elders" by Liu Jialiang are all Spring Festival movies! Tomorrow I have arranged for several local martial artists to communicate on the stage, so as to have a topic ”

“What martial artists are there in Hong Kong?”

"There are many, there are more than 400 large and small martial arts schools, teaching everything!"

Their arrangements here are very complete, which shows that the leftists have a solid foundation and their ideas are more open than those in mainland China. Unfortunately, they are unlucky.

After dinner, return to the room.

Chen Qi had no intention of resting and only looked at the schedule for the past few days, especially tomorrow's activities.

There are five fists and thirteen schools of southern martial arts. The five fists refer to Hong, Liu, Cai, Li, and Mo. The thirteen schools refer to Longxingquan, Xiajiaquan, Baimeiquan, Nanzhiquan, etc. - Jackie Chan, in addition to Peking Opera , he still practices white eyebrows.

Two local martial artists are scheduled for tomorrow, one will do Baimei and the other will do Hongquan.

"..."

Chen Qi touched his chin. He was accompanied by official personnel this time, so it was difficult to do big things, but it was okay to do something small. Martial arts exchanges were inevitably bumpy.

…………

Hong Kong's theaters are also two-story, old-fashioned style with more than a thousand seats. This kind of theater cannot schedule dozens of shows a day like the multi-hall theaters of later generations.

Now it is usually:

There is a show in the morning, showing old movies, with cheap tickets, and it is watched by the elderly.

There is a show in the evening, called the after-work show, as the name suggests, for people who are off work or school, and some foreign language films and second-run films will be shown.

The night show starts at about 7:30, and new movies will be shown.

The next morning, Gong Xue got up early, washed and dressed, put on the black dress, stepped on high heels, and then sat in front of the mirror, took out the lipstick that Chen Qi gave her, and carefully applied it on her lips.

This was her first time using it, and she thought the color was very suitable.

"Sister Xue, you are so beautiful, a hundred times more beautiful than me!"

Ge Chunyan was wearing sportswear and standing behind her, extremely envious.

Gong Xue smiled and said, "Who said that? You are handsome and beautiful, and you know kung fu. I think you are a hundred times better than me."

"So what? You are still wearing sportswear!"

Ge Chunyan tugged at her clothes, feeling very depressed. She also wanted to wear nice clothes, but there was no way, because she was in the martial arts team.

The two went downstairs, and the male comrades were already waiting. They were also wearing sportswear, and the words "Tai Chi" were specially printed on their chests. These were bought for them by the leftists. They were not the ugly ones, and the styles were relatively new.

But no matter how new they were, they were still sportswear, and they were still rustic. They didn't care much until a few people showed up.

"Hey hey!"

"Oh, look!"

Ji Chunhua, who was playing with Xiong Xinxin, suddenly widened his eyes and pulled him to look forward. Xiong Xinxin also looked like he had seen a ghost. The crowd was even more chaotic, with different expressions, but they couldn't hide their naked envy, ah, contempt!

"..."

Gong Xue covered her mouth, surprised and amazed, staring at Chen Qi, the show-off, walking over.

He actually wore a suit! A suit!

A white shirt inside, leather shoes on his feet, not like the popular tie now, but casual and natural. The most annoying thing is that this grandson actually wore a pair of glasses.

The gold wire rim, delicately stuck on the bridge of his nose.

Don't say it, with this on, he really looks like a human!
