Dreams of the Fragrant River

"Pan...Miss Pan, have another cup...Boom!"

Ma Yunsheng was drunk and dazed, his **** slid to the ground, and he took down a plate of braised carp and straightened his face.

Pan Yingzi, who had been entangled by Fatty Ma, was also Xiafei's cheeks at this time, and said with a sigh of relief, "Finally poured!"

Lin Zhengying next to him also had a **** face from drinking. He was upright and reticent, and he didn't say a few words since he came to Taipei. However, seeing that Ma Yunsheng had no good intentions towards Pan Yingzi, Lin Zhengying took the initiative to shoulder the responsibility of fighting the wine, and together with Pan Yingzi, overturned the fat man.

Chen Xunqi got up and said, "This idiot's driver is downstairs, I'll call him up and carry him."

Kang Jianfei kicked Ma Yunsheng on the ground with his foot. Seeing that the **** didn't react at all, he bent down and grabbed the front of his shirt and lifted it up, put him on the chair and sat down, and asked Lin Zhengying and Pan Yingzi: "Are you all right?"

Pan Yingzi smiled and said, "It's okay, I didn't drink a few glasses, but A-Ying drank a lot."

Lin Zhengying shook her head and said, "I don't mind, this little wine is nothing. This Ma Yunsheng has a bad mind. Sister Pan, you have to be more careful in the future."

Pan Yingzi is 31 years old and looks like a girl, but Lin Zhengying is so old at 28 that Kang Jianfei is called "Uncle Ying". Now the two call each other "A Ying" and "Sister Pan", Kang Jianfei always feels strange.

"I will take his losses?" Pan Yingzi gave Ma Yunsheng a disdainful look and said, "This person is a scumbag."

Kang Jianfei smiled and said, "If you can become the general manager of China Film Culture City, then you can't say that this person is useless."

Pan Yingzi explained: "The China Film Company is a party-run organization, and Ma Yunsheng climbed up through nepotism. But he won't be around for a long time. Most of Taiwan's film companies have closed down in the past two years. Business is also poor."

Kang Jianfei asked in surprise, "Half of the closures? Taiwanese movies collapsed so badly!"

Pan Yingzi said: "Yes, many Taiwanese film talents have gone to Hong Kong to develop. It is no longer possible to make films in Taiwan, and only a large party-run company like China Film can support it."

The decline of Taiwanese films is indeed astonishingly fast. In the first half of last year, the situation was very good, and the films in the second half of the year began to hit the streets one by one. This year is even worse. Taiwan's annual box office top three, the box office champion is "Sakura Love" in the United States, the second and third are all Hong Kong films, and there are very few viewers of the popular romantic film in the past.

Especially "Sakura Love", this movie is a Hollywood movie in 1957, which was released twice in Taiwan in the 1950s and 1960s. Five years ago, it was bought at a high price by a Taiwanese film maker to be screened again. As a result, Lao Jiang died the day after it was submitted for review. The entire Taiwan stopped entertainment activities without passing the review, and it was not approved for screening until this year. This old film from more than 20 years ago was screened for the third time in Taiwan for 4 consecutive months, and won the annual box office champion in one fell swoop.

It can be seen from Taiwan's box office list this year that Taiwanese films have begun to decline in an all-round way.

However, Kang Jianfei was thinking of those Taiwanese film talents and asked, "Sister Azi, if you know Taiwanese filmmakers, you can get a few to join the company. There is no need for a director. I want an artist and a make-up artist. This kind of technical talent.”

Pan Yingzi didn't care about Kang Jianfei's messy addresses, she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask a friend another day."

While speaking, Chen Xunqi had already brought Ma Yunsheng's driver up, and everyone carried the goods to check out and left.

On the way back to the hotel, Kang Jianfei finally asked, "Sister Azi, do you know where Lin Qingxia lives?"

When Kang Jianfei mentioned Lin Qingxia, Chen Xunqi and Lin Zhengying were both excited. Lin Qingxia is the most beautiful woman in Southeast Asia and the dream lover of countless men.

"What are you doing with her?" Pan Yingzi asked, she and Lin Qingxia only had a few acquaintances and didn't have much contact.

Kang Jianfei said with a smile, "Isn't the Taiwan movie finished? I just took the opportunity to invite her to go to Hong Kong to make a movie. This is a great opportunity."

……

……

"Give it up, let it go!"

On a street in China Film Culture City, Hu Juncai shouted loudly. More than a dozen porters followed behind him, carrying coffins.

Everyone on the street looked sideways, and many tourists even called it bad luck. Some people followed the porter curiously, wanting to see what Hu Juncai was doing with so many coffins.

A set of courtyard houses in China Film Culture City has been rented by Kang Jianfei as the main filming location for "Mr. Zombie". Hu Juncai asked people to carry 10 coffins in. After the coffins were placed, the lids were lifted, and the inside was full of ingot candles and paper figures and other sacrificial items.

The courtyard was not idle either, it was furiously renovating, and one row of wing rooms had their doors and walls torn down, and iron fences and scenery boards were installed instead as prison cells.

Not only that, but with the help of the locals, Qi Bo went to the Yangming Mountains to find a cemetery, and instructed workers to build a fake grave with cement next to some old graves. Two tombstones are also being ordered.

Chen Xunqi helped Kang Jianfei carry the "torture tool" and sighed: "Being an actor and a scorer used to be quite easy, but now that I'm learning to be a director, I realize that there are so many things to do to make a movie."

"It also depends on how you shoot!" Kang Jianfei clapped the dust on his hands and said, "Shaw Brothers is easy to make a film, everything can be set on set, and it takes more than ten days to make a movie, but unfortunately, the audience is now unwilling to buy it."

"Yeah, now the audience is used to watching live scenes." Chen Xunqi has a deep understanding of this, because he was on the Shaw Brothers studio at the age of 15.

While the two were talking, Chen You, wearing a pair of small glasses, walked into the courtyard, looked at the coffins and artifacts in the courtyard, and exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Wow, this is going to be a dojo!"

Chen You, one of the members of the Winner band, but more mainlanders know him because of the many comedy films he starred in.

It is precisely because Chen You's performance in "Mr. Zombie" is so distinctive that he is still the male lead in a sequel later, so Kang Jianfei didn't want to change people, and still invited him to be Lin Zhengying's junior brother.

Lin Zhengying and Chen You are to zombie films what Zhou Xingchi is to nonsensical comedies, but they change their taste after changing actors.

"Mr. Chen, why are you here now?" Seeing Chen You's heart, Kang Jianfei hurried up to shake hands to welcome him.

Chen You explained, "The day after tomorrow, I want to film "It's Cool and Autumn", so I came here early. Ah B came to Taipei at night because of some business. I heard from Miss Pan that you were here too, so I just came and walked around when I was bored."

Chen You was invited by Pan Yingzi. Chen Bingkun was fine to pick a young actor, but it was not enough to invite Chen You. Wenner Band just disbanded at this time, and Chen Youzheng intends to switch to the film industry, so he is not picky about the filming. As soon as Kang Jianfei's invitation was sent, he immediately agreed.

As for Chen You's mouth, "It's Cool and Autumn" is a film written by Hou Xiaoxian and directed by Chen Kunhou, starring Lin Fengjiao and Zhong Zhentao. It is one of the rare good works after Taiwanese films began to decline.

The band Wenner is very popular in Taiwan. Kang Jianfei invited Chen You to appear in "Mr. Zombie", which also meant to please the Taiwanese audience. After all, Taiwan is an important market for Hong Kong films.

Speaking of the experience of Wenner's band becoming popular in Taiwan back then, that's called magic. Kang Jianfei's speed in filming "Happy Ghost" is called scum compared to others.

A few years ago, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com Winner Band had already become popular in Southeast Asia, but because of their poor Mandarin, they could not enter the Taiwan market. The agent of Wenner Band found Huashi, and the two sides cooperated on a TV series called "New Journey to the West: Princess Iron Fan", in which Tang Seng's master and apprentice plus Niu Demon King starred by members of Wenner Band.

The production process of this TV series is like this: I spent three hours overnight writing the script the night before, shooting the next day, and the broadcast on the third day, and then the band's lame Mandarin laughed over the Taiwanese audience, causing the ratings to skyrocket...

After Chen You came, he chatted with Kang Jianfei and Chen Xunqi while watching their work, and seemed interested in their work.

Seeing that he stayed for a long time and didn't leave, Kang Jianfei joked, "Since Mr. Chen likes making movies so much, why don't he join my company."

Chen You listened and said in a joking tone, "Okay, after the band disbanded, I just didn't know what to do. It's not bad to make a movie."

Kang Jianfei didn't expect that he would actually agree, he was stunned for a moment and grabbed Chen You's hand and said, "Welcome to Oriental DreamWorks!"

"Ah?" Chen You was stunned, he thought Kang Jianfei was joking with him just now.

Now that all the words have been said, Chen You is really embarrassed to go back and regret it, so he joined DreamWorks in such a confused way.

Someone in the book review area guessed that Kang Jianfei would invite Lin Qingxia to film "Police Story", er, guessed wrong.

At that time, Old Wang will give everyone a surprise. The third and fourth films that Kang Jianfei will make in the future seem to have not been written by anyone in the entertainment literature.
