Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

"Why are they here?"

Pan Di whispered, then turned to look at Cen Jianxun beside him.

Cen Jianxun was also confused about this. New Oriental obviously had two movies released today. If Lin Daoqiu didn't go there to support them, what was he doing here?

On the other side, as soon as Yuan Biao saw Lin Daoqiu, he wanted to leave here immediately and did not dare to meet Lin Daoqiu at all.

"Elder brother, what should we do now?"

Sammo Hung doesn’t want to leave, but how can he leave now?

Pan Di said that they were all present. What would they think if he turned around and left?

So Sammo Hung can only stay now, no matter how embarrassed he is, he has to admit it.

"What else can we do? We can only wait and see what happens."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Biao could only nod helplessly.

At this time, we were surrounded by reporters on three levels inside and outside. If it weren't for the staff who were waiting for the car to act as a human wall, I'm afraid there would have been chaos.

"Did Mr. Lin come here specifically to support Director Xu today?"

"Mr. Lin, as far as I know, Xiangjiang Cinema has two new films premiering tonight. Why didn't you go to support them?"

"Ms. Lin, are you and Mr. Lin already together?"

Facing the indiscriminate bombardment of reporters, Lin Daoqiu looked calm, and Brigitte Lin beside him also kept smiling.

"Everyone, it's actually Miss Lin who is very interested in the play "Shanghai Nights". She happens to be free today, so I acted as a escort to accompany her to watch the play. It's that simple."

No reporter at the scene would believe Lin Daoqiu's answer.

But wanting to hear his true thoughts from Lin Daoqiu's mouth is nothing more than dreaming.

"Mr. Lin, do you think "Shanghai Nights" is better than the two new dramas from Heung Kong Cinema?"

One of the reporters asked Lin Daoqiu a very mean question.

Letting him evaluate this drama on someone else's territory will not do Lin Daoqiu any good anyway.

"An inch is long and a foot is short, and it doesn't matter what I say. It has to be judged by the audience. If you want to know, you will know after watching the box office."

Lin Daoqiu did not give a definite answer in the end.

"Journalists, the interview time has come. If you have any questions, please wait until after the movie is over."

Cen Jianxun could only bite the bullet and rush forward to chase them away, because there was not much time left before the movie started.

If Lin Daoqiu and the others don't finish this, then today's premiere will not be held.

In fact, Lin Daoqiu didn't like to deal with reporters. After Cen Jianxun asked the reporter to leave, Lin Daoqiu smiled at the reporter, and then walked towards the Jade Theater with Brigitte Lin.

On the steps, Pan Disheng stood looking at Lin Daoqiu with a smile. Next to him stood Sammo Hung and others.

"Mr. Lin is here to welcome you. Please forgive me for being a little distant."

The moment Pan Disheng and Lin Daoqiu shook hands, the reporters at the scene did not miss this great opportunity and immediately pressed the shutter of the camera quickly.

The two leaders, Baocheng Cinema Chain and Xiangjiang Cinema Chain, can be said to have monopolized the entire Xiangjiang film market.

Although everyone knows that the two theater chains are in opposition.

But people with a bigger brain can't help but think about what would happen if Baocheng Cinemas and Heung Kong Cinemas joined forces.

Then in the Hong Kong film industry, I'm afraid there won't be a second kind of voice.

"Boss Pan, you're welcome. Qingxia heard someone talk about the drama "Shanghai Nights" before, and she happened to have free time today, so I accompanied her here."

Lin Daoqiu took out Brigitte Lin as a shield. While Lin Qingxia was smiling, her hand secretly slipped to Lin Daoqiu's waist, and then pinched the soft flesh around his waist.

Lin Daoqiu, sensing that something was not good, quickly turned his head to Brigitte Lin, and smiled and nodded at her.

"I see, please, please, I've already had the box prepared."

Naturally, Pan Disheng would not let Lin Daoqiu sit outside. After all, he did not want reporters' attention to be focused on Lin Daoqiu, so inviting him to the box was the best choice.

"There is Boss Laopan."

Lin Daoqiu nodded to the other party to thank him.

"Mr. Lin, Miss Lin."

When passing by Pan Disheng, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao respectfully called Mr. Lin.

Lin Daoqiu looked at them, just smiled, but didn't say a word, then turned and left.

Yuan Biao was a little worried at first, fearing that Lin Daoqiu would humiliate him in public, but he did not expect that the other party would not even pay attention to them.

"Why……"

Sighing quietly, Yuan Biao had realized that their relationship with Lin Daoqiu might have been completely broken.

But if it happened again, he would still choose to leave New Oriental with Sammo Hung.

Because compared to Sammo Hung, Lin Daoqiu's status in Yuan Biao's heart is still lower.

As for Tsui Hark, Shi Tian and others on the side, Lin Daoqiu didn't even look at them, and directly passed them and entered the Jade Cinema.

"Mr. Lin's temper is getting louder and louder. It seems that we will have to work harder in the future."

Shi Tian made sarcastic remarks on the side, and Tsui Hark and Eric Tsang could only smile bitterly in return.

If Baocheng Cinema Line fails this time, they will really no longer have a foothold in Xiangjiang, so it is no wonder that Shi Tian said that he will work harder in the future.

When the manager of the theater personally brought Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin to the box, not long after they sat down, Tsui Hark, Zhong Zhentao and other leading actors came on stage to briefly say a few words, and then started to play the movie.

In Lin Daoqiu's memory, he felt that he should have seen the play "Shanghai Nights", but because it had been so long, he could not remember the plot.

When watching the movie, Brigitte Lin looked very attentive. Movies like "Shanghai Nights" are her favorite.

While watching the play, what Lin Daoqiu paid attention to was not the acting skills of the actors or the development of the plot.

What he is more concerned about is the scenery inside, which does look a bit like old Shanghai.

Originally, Lin Daoqiu thought that Tsui Hark would focus on comedy and plot for the drama "Shanghai Nights".

But I didn’t expect that he would actually put a lot of effort into setting up the scene.

As for the plot, Tsui Hark used a lot of coincidences and gave up the rationality of the plot. This is also Tsui Hark's consistent style, and Lin Daoqiu is already used to it.

But putting aside these shortcomings, "Shanghai Nights" is indeed a good movie.

At the end of the movie, Zhong Zhentao finally caught up with the train, and the two finally embraced each other. The happy ending brought the drama to an end.

It can be heard from the warm applause of the audience that everyone is very satisfied with this drama.
