Rebirth of the Hong Kong tycoon, the beginning of the star Shuzhen

Even so, when Qiu Shuzhen went to find Xu Jinyang, her attitude was still a bit high.

She was still unwilling to be on an equal footing with other women, and she wanted to fight for a transcendent status for herself, and wanted to be treated better than other women, only second to the gambling king's daughter, Pansy Ho.

Xu Jinyang felt in his heart that he had spoiled Qiu Shuzhen too much earlier, which made her a little bit floating, and she didn't know who she was.

Qiu Shuzhen was a goddess to the original Wang Jing, but there is more than one goddess in Hong Kong.

How are Zhang Min, Zhou Huimin, Lan Jie, and Ying Lizhi worse than her? Why should their status be lower than hers?

Originally, Xu Jinyang once listed her status very high, but as she did this, she wanted to PUA Xu Jinyang like this (she didn't know the name, but her approach was PUA), Xu Jinyang became more and more disgusted, so he lowered her original status.

However, these days, although Qiu Shuzhen has been treated coldly, she has not slacked off in the work she should do, nor has she acted like a big star and not done it.

��Because she knew that she had not compromised on the principle issue, which had already made Xu Jinyang unhappy. If she stood up at work, Xu Jinyang might find it even more unbearable and might give up on her completely. She didn't want to miss such an opportunity, and she couldn't afford the 10 million liquidated damages, so she could only work honestly.

Their film"A Better Tomorrow" caused a storm in the Hong Kong film market on New Year's Day in 1987. No one had ever thought that such a theme could actually attract the whole nation's enthusiasm.

The film was released on New Year's Day.

After a month of release, it took nearly 40 million at the box office.

Although it was not as good as the movie starring Xu Jinyang himself, it was ranked second in the Hong Kong box office history list.

The reason why the box office was higher than that of the original time and space may be because of the participation of Qiu Shuzhen and the more solid script.

Those theaters did not dare to offend Xu Jinyang, and the"250" was scheduled higher than before.

Of course, the reputation of this movie is also quite good. The comments from newspapers, magazines, TV stations, and audiences are all very friendly. Everyone gives this movie a very high evaluation, especially the role of Xiao Ma Ge. Even the professional film critics who are always critical have given it enough praise.

"《A Better Tomorrow is not only a turning point in Wu Yusen's life, but also a milestone in Hong Kong films. This is a film that has never been seen in Hong Kong. The man in the film has gone through hardships, but he never gives up the pursuit of"loyalty, status, and dignity". Wu Yusen is heroic, and the frustration and revenge that have been accumulated in the film industry for a long time permeate every scene of the film. The smooth and melodious editing is impeccable!"

"《A Better Tomorrow is the pioneering work of Hong Kong heroic films. Its greatest achievement is not that it is the box office champion, nor that it has won numerous awards, but that the film accurately grasps the theme of the times, allowing every generation to resonate with it, and that it is the first to perfectly combine the unique romance and poetry of oriental martial arts with modern action films. Every frame maximizes the beauty, and every bullet is as graceful as ballet."

"The bright colors of the film wipe away a trace of sadness for the past love that has been stained yellow by time.

Times make heroes, and the world of martial arts in troubled times is helpless, and the apparent peace cannot hide the thriving undercurrents.

Three anti-traditional heroism has emerged since then and has become everyone's hero.

Even if the sword and the shadow of the sword are a thing of the past, the rain of bullets can reappear in the world of martial arts, and the rough and wild spirit of this world of martial arts has not diminished in the slightest, and we can still roar in it.

The hero's heroism, rogue spirit, and childishness are all integrated into"A Better Tomorrow", a monumental work in film history that became famous in one battle.

"

"《A Better Tomorrow is a lyrical work that combines the director and the main actors' situations and fits the mentality of Hong Kong society.

As a grassroots society, Hong Kong is actively entering the world market division of labor.

This film can be interpreted in many ways.

The frustration and ambition of the protagonist in the film are reflected in every scene of the film.

The violent aesthetic style of the film began to take shape in A Better Tomorrow: the sharp and hearty images, the idol charm of the characters and the hot and exciting action scenes have all reached the peak of Hong Kong gun battle films.

"

"《The love between father and son, brother, friend, man and woman, the love of being wronged and revenge, etc.

in"A Better Tomorrow" vividly portrays the love in men's hearts.

Compared with the film works of Wu Yusen's mentor Zhang Che, Wu Yusen not only makes Zhang Che's ancient costume boxing and martial arts scenes transition to modern gunfights that conform to modern Hong Kong society, but also, in the core of the story, Zhang Che's kind of tragic knight at the end of his life has been transformed by Wu Yusen into a modern heroic hero.

The emotional drama of women, which has always been ignored by Zhang Che, becomes a bridge of communication between brothers in"A Better Tomorrow".

）

"Wu Yusen has created typical classic violent scenes.

The beautiful close-up of Mark holding two guns in the air in"A Better Tomorrow" makes the audience feel excited invisibly.

The bullets fired by Mark in the film present a perfect parabolic shape, as if there is the beauty of a basketball thrown into the basket from a distance.

When showing violent scenes, Wu Yusen upgrades the picture to change the narrative time of the image, so that a violent scene that is tragic and bloody in the real world presents a soothing and elegant aesthetic connotation in the lens, effectively eliminating the cruelty of visual violence.

Wu Yusen has evolved the film narrative form that aims to show killing into a staged film space for the purpose of action performance, creating the tragedy and beauty of heroes and heroes."

"《"A Better Tomorrow" has created a model for traditional Hong Kong gangster films, following the classic narrative mode of betrayal by villains, victimization by good people, and revenge. It is clear and concise, fast-paced, and pursues the entertainment of the story. The film not only implants Hollywood gangster themes into Hong Kong gangs, but also fully incorporates Chinese gang elements and the generous and chivalrous temperament of Chinese women.

Xiao Ma Ge, played by Zhou Yifa, is one of the gangsters. He is furious because his brother Song Zihao was arrested and imprisoned, fully demonstrating heroism.

Although American movies have been highlighting personal heroism from western themes to science fiction blockbusters, in fact, this kind of personal spirit has long existed in China. From Guan Yu drinking warm wine and beheading Hua Xiong to attending a meeting alone, it has been concentratedly expressed in Xiao Ma Ge."

Just like the original time and space, there are three main creators in this movie. Before this, they were all frustrated.

Director Wu Yusen had previously shot several box office failures at New Art City, but was put on the shelf by the boss and was rarely used. Wu Yusen was gloomy all day long.

Di Long was out of fashion because of his age. After being forced to leave Shaw Brothers, he couldn't find a job at all. After

Zhou Yifa became popular in Shanghai Beach, he did not choose those commercial films, but had been honing his acting skills in art films. However, the box office of those art films was very average. The box office of so many consecutive movies was very average, and the film critics named him Poison Fa, saying that he was box office poison, which made many movie company bosses dare not use him.

These three down-and-out people, with the full support of the big boss Xu Jinyang, plus With the help of Zhang Guorong, the movie became a big hit and they immediately turned around.

The movie won the Best Film at the 1987 Academy Awards. Zhou Yifa won the Best Actor Award for his wonderful performance as Xiao Ma Ge, and Di Long won the Best Actor Award at the Golden Horse Awards. Even the song sung by Zhang Guorong won the Best Original Music Award. Their boss, the screenwriter Xu Jinyang, also won the Best Screenwriter Award.

As for the Academy Awards ceremony, it was held in mid-March 1987. Now there are still three months to that time. We will talk about it in detail then.

It was the movie"A Better Tomorrow" that laid a good foundation for Hong Kong movies in 1987. If nothing unexpected happens, it may be the box office champion this year.

Xu Jinyang held a celebration banquet for the movie"A Better Tomorrow". This This time, more Hong Kong filmmakers came here to visit than before, because before, everyone thought that it was incredible that Xu Jinyang's film company's"The Romance of the Condor Heroes" had somehow earned more than 40 million at the box office, as if it was just luck. But now, because"A Better Tomorrow" has such a strong box office and a very good reputation, it is because of strength!

Filmmakers from major Hong Kong film companies have paid attention to Shuguang Film Company, which has just been established for less than a year, and noticed their boss Xu Jinyang.

More female stars are flocking to it, all wanting to be signed by Shuguang Film Company, or they simply want to be Xu Jinyang's woman.

After all, just signing does not necessarily mean that resources can be obtained. Only by becoming Xu Jinyang's woman can you get more guarantees.

But They don't know that Xu Jinyang is not so short of women now, and he doesn't want just any woman.

Xu Jinyang noticed that there was a female star who didn't attend the first celebration banquet before, but came this time.

This female star is very white, with very delicate features and very big, watery eyes. Moreover, she doesn't need to wear heavy makeup at all, just a light makeup, and she is already dazzling. Countless men cast amazing glances at her. Once upon a time, she was recognized as the most beautiful woman in Hong Kong.

This beauty is Guan Zhilin! Last time, Guan Zhilin did not attend the celebration banquet of"The Romance of the Condor Heroes" to express her congratulations to Xu Jinyang. That was because she was in the same crew with Cheng Long at the time. They were filming"Brother Long and Brother Tiger". Seeing that Cheng Long was unwilling to come, Guan Zhilin did not dare to offend Cheng Long, so she did not come.

But this time, Cheng Long had to come under the urging of his boss Zou Wenhuai and his godfather He Guanchang, so Guan Zhilin also came.

Although Rosamund Kwan’s acting skills were not that good at that time, she was still valued by Cheng Long and Jin Bao because she was so beautiful. She participated in several of their movies. Although they were all vase roles, she also made her presence felt.

Before this, Rosamund Kwan had only heard that Xu Jinyang had a lot of money and few people, and was very generous to actresses.

He actually gave a signing fee of 1 million Hong Kong dollars to the newcomer, which was much higher than the signing fee she got when she joined Golden Harvest.

However, Rosamund Kwan played the role of a vase with Cheng Long and Jin Bao in Golden Harvest Company, and her acting was okay, although it was a bit hard.

After all, they were all shooting action scenes, and they often had to sleep in the open air, but at least there were movies to shoot, so she didn’t pay too much attention to it.

Until this time, when she followed Cheng Long to attend the celebration party. When she saw Xu Jinyang for the first time, Rosamund Kwan was stunned..........

It was clearly the first time they met, why did she inexplicably have a very good feeling about him? It was really strange.

She didn't know that there was an inexplicable connection between the two before they met.

First of all, Xu Jinyang ruined Cheng Long, which was also a cutoff of Cheng Long's peach blossom luck, which included his relationship with Guan Zhilin.

In the original time and space, it was once said that except for a few female stars who had worked with Cheng Long, they all seemed to have had an affair with him. Then Guan Zhilin seemed to have worked with him more than once. Long brothers and tiger brothers, A-level, they worked together many times, how could there be nothing.

Cheng Long was known as a sex lover, how could he let go of the grass beside his nest? Guan Zhilin might have remembered when she had some good feelings for him, but they disappeared later. (To read the violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

In addition, Xu Jinyang's previous quiet snatching of Li Lianjie's special energy was also a disguised cutoff of Li Lianjie and Guan Zhilin's fate.

In the original time and space, Rosamund Kwan was not only a screen couple with Andy Lau, and they had co-starred in many movies. She was also a classic screen couple with Li Lianjie. In addition to the Huang Feihong series, they seemed to have filmed"The Adventure King", and they played a pair of happy enemies in"The Adventure King", which was very interesting.

In"The Adventure King", Li Lianjie had a love scene with Rosamund Kwan. In one scene, in accordance with the director's intention, he and Rosamund Kwan were very intimate, and there was a lot of affection between their eyebrows. Soon, the news reached Li Zhi's ears. After a while, Li Lianjie received a call from Li Zhi:"I'm leaving, back to my hometown in Shanghai."

Finally, under the persuasion of Xiang Tai, Li Zhi returned to Li Lianjie again. This was the only time Li Zhi was jealous, but it really scared Li Lianjie, so from then on, Li Lianjie rarely had intimate scenes with actresses, and used his actual actions to prove his love for Li Zhi.

When Guan Zhilin and Li Lianjie were filming together, it was inevitable that she would fall in love with Li Lianjie, but Li Lianjie was just being polite and did not show any disrespect to her.

But often the more a man behaves like this, the more unwilling a woman will be. So in the original time and space, Guan Zhilin should have had a good feeling for Li Lianjie, but in this time and space, all of it was transferred to Xu Jinyang, and Guan Zhilin had such a good feeling for Xu Jinyang.

When the two feelings are added together, it is equivalent to Guan Zhilin seeing the perfect incarnation of Cheng Long and Li Lianjie, so he was immediately moved, which is not difficult to understand.

Cheng Long turned his head to look at Guan Zhilin, and seeing Guan Zhilin looking straight at Xu Jinyang, he smiled and said,"Are you interested in this rich young man? I can introduce you to him."

Cheng Long brought Guan Zhilin to Xu Jinyang, and Cheng Long first complimented him,"Boss Xu, your film company is really amazing. It has beaten our Golden Harvest dizzy. This time,"A Better Tomorrow" has such a high box office. Your company's Zhou Yongfa, the little brother, also played quite well. Fortunately, I was not allowed to play the role at the beginning. If I were to play it, I would definitely not be able to play it so well."

Xu Jinyang sometimes admired Cheng Long as a person who spoke his mind.

Of course, he also knew that Cheng Long didn't say a lot of things nonsense. He still paid attention to emotional intelligence, otherwise he would not be able to do so well with his 1.8.

Xu Jinyang smiled faintly and said,"Brother Chenglong, you are too kind. I also regret that I didn't cooperate with you. If we cooperated with you, maybe our movie box office would be better."

Chenglong laughed and said,"Don't praise me. The box office of Brother Long and Brother Tiger, which I starred in, was 20 million, which is far behind.

Then let me introduce you. This is Miss Guan Zhilin, the second female lead of our movie. You didn't know each other before. Let me introduce you to each other."

After Chenglong introduced Guan Zhilin and Xu Jinyang, he found an excuse to leave.

The reason why he took the initiative to introduce Guan Zhilin and Xu Jinyang to each other was actually to use the beauty trap. He now realized that Xu Jinyang was extraordinary. If he was an ordinary person, how could he shoot two movies that were box office champions in such a short period of time? He must have a very deep background and he couldn't afford to offend him. He wanted to find a way to ease the tension between the two sides.

If he gave money, Xu Jinyang would not be short of money at that time. Even giving resources would not work. Xu Jinyang could create them out of thin air and didn't need him to give them.

Cheng Long thought about it and could only send Xu Jinyang the one he was most interested in, a beautiful woman.

In this time and space, Cheng Long repeatedly tried to take advantage of Guan Zhilin and turn her into his woman, but Guan Zhilin did not feel strongly about him and was unwilling to give in.

Cheng Long tried several times, but all failed.

In addition, Cheng Long found that he seemed to be ineffective these days. He had the desire and courage to be a thief to women, but he did not have the ability to be a thief, which hit him hard.

He thought it was affected by his previous injury and that he had many girlfriends before, so when he saw a beautiful woman and he could not have her, he simply introduced her to the person he wanted to curry favor with, as a honey trap.
