Hong Kong Stubborn - Chapter 44

In March, TVB began to broadcast the best work “The Legend of the Condor Heroes: Iron and Blood”.

Immediately, the ATV’s “Three Chapters of a Floating Life” broadcast at the same time could not be found at all. The “Three Chapters of a Floating Life” was forced to be cut in half when it was filmed, and the ratings were really horrible.

Seeing TVB’s ratings steadily increasing, ATV is in a state of exhaustion, and high-level meetings are continuous. Of course, no one will think of Luo Junyan for the time being, and the waste collection station has reserved a good place for him.

Director Wang Xiaopang is now becoming more and more skillful in his technique, and his shooting is so fast, he is definitely a good seed for directing commercial films. “Familiarity” was announced after 20 days of filming, and it is expected to be released in mid-to-late June.

Luo Junyan mixed well in the crew, the only one who had not communicated privately with the protagonist Fu Sheng. After all, everyone’s identities are not on the same level. Fu Gongzi is definitely a wealthy son, and he has been famous for a long time. My wife is not an ordinary singer, and the theme song for the Legend of the Condor Heroes is being played all over the street.

In the film, Chen Baixiang was the one who played the most rivalry with Luo Junyan, and the two were also very good at chatting outside of the film. Luo Junyan likes this man very much. He is not a fan of tongues, but he is very traditional in his bones.

Chen Baixiang’s wife, Huang Xingxiu, was once a TVB star artist. She will not renew her contract after expiration this year. She is much more famous than Chen Baixiang. Luo Junyan and Huang Xingxiu also met on the Qingshuiwan set, and they felt that she was a very strong woman.

Shi Jian, another predecessor in the entertainment industry, has just played Qiu Qianren in the Legend of the Condor Heroes. He really likes Luo Junyan. During the break, the two drank the tea that Luo Junyan had brought, and exchanged performance experience.

In the supporting actress in the film, Zhong Chuhong doesn’t need to mention it. Although Zhong Chuhong’s fame is much bigger now, Luo Junyan can still joke with her unscrupulously.

And Luo Junyan immediately turned into an honest child in front of the other two actresses Liu Xuehua and Qian Huiyi, often causing Zhong Chuhong to laugh at him twice.

After the filming was finished, Luo Junyan took advantage of his free time to pay attention to this year’s film market. The sequel of “Best Partner” released in the Spring Festival file, “Best Partner Shows Supernatural Powers”, won more than 23.2 million in the box office. .

Another “I Love Evening Fragrance” produced by Xinyicheng also won more than 13.7 million box office. Brigitte Lin is thoroughly preparing to come to Xiangjiang for development. She has a good network of contacts. If she gets the chance to play the lead role, take it.

According to Sammo Hung told Luo Junyan, Qin Xianglin has also come to Xiangjiang and will play a major role in his new film “The Five Lucky Stars”. In the original role, Sammo Hung was planning to invite Luo Junyan, but the negative news about him was too hot, and Jiahe didn’t agree with him alive and deadly.

In short, in the first half of the year, Xinyicheng dominates the world, and there is no competitor worth mentioning. Luo Junyan could only pray silently for “The Heart of the Flower”, don’t lose too ugly.

Another bad thing is that the second Hong Kong Golden Statue Awards in July began to nominate, this year’s awards are a lot more, but it has nothing to do with Luo Junyan and his “My Savage Girlfriend”. Yes, because of negative news, “My Savage Girlfriend”, the annual box office champion movie, was excluded by the organizing committee.

After Luo Junyan learned the news, he didn’t think much, but immediately called Maggie Zhang. After all, if the film is shortlisted, the best newcomer award must be in the bag of Maggie Cheung.

Maggie Cheung is still chatting with Luo Junyan happily. She is currently preparing for the beauty pageant of the TVB Hong Kong sister.

Knowing that Huibo and Uncle Zhan were the judges of the final, Luo Junyan told Maggie Cheung that she would definitely help her buy these two judges and let them both give full marks. Maggie Cheung suddenly yelled at him, saying that he was doing it in disguise and saying that he couldn’t win the championship on his own? So Luo Junyan kept complimenting her on her cleverness.

The two were still quarreling, but neither of them offered to meet. Luo Junyan gradually learned some ways of getting along with friends in the entertainment circle, and proper distance always ranked first in the social rules of the entertainment circle.

On June 22, “Hua Xin Da Shao” was screened on the Shaw Academy.

In the previous publicity, Luo Junyan was only used as a tidbit-like gimmick, and he will not be added to the movie poster. The three actresses only occupy a small row at the lower edge of the poster. A romantic comedy is froze in the poster style of a Kung Fu movie, with the male protagonist in the middle of his head.

The box office performance of the film’s premiere is pretty good, with more than 500,000 Hong Kong dollars. Young audiences also prefer movies of this theme.

Objectively speaking, the script of “The Heart of Flowers” was written very carefully, and Wang Xiaopang also tried his best. If the male lead is replaced by a comedy star, the box office will definitely be more ideal.

When Luo Junyan was shooting this film, they worked seamlessly with Chen Baixiang, and the two showed the exaggerated but not exaggerated comedy performance skills naturally and smoothly. He learned a lot from Chen Baixiang. The essence of comedy performance is not to make the audience laugh, but to discover the focus of contradictions in the characters, and to moderately concentrate and expand this contradiction.

For example, a well-dressed and well-mannered rich man, once the plot and circumstances urge him to show his ostentatious and absurd side. This kind of strong psychological and behavioral contrast will make the audience feel happy unconsciously, which is based on the instinctive reaction of human nature.

After four days of screening, although the attendance rate dropped slightly, Director Wang was completely relieved.

It can be expected that the box office score of “Hua Xin Da Shao” can reach about 7 million. Among the films produced by Shaw Brothers in recent years, it is definitely one of the best sellers. Shaw Brothers has rarely seen films with a box office of over 5 million.

On the fifth day of the release of “Hua Xin Da Young”, no one had expected that the style of painting suddenly changed drastically. Many people flocked to the theaters one after another, and Shengsheng pushed the single-day box office to more than 700,000, which is a relatively rare box office trend.

That night, in Shaw’s general manager’s office.

Fang Yihua looked at Manager Chen, who was rushing over to report, and asked again in disbelief: “Are you sure you are all Luo Junyan’s fans?”

Manager Chen nodded and said: “I personally led the team to investigate a few games, and I can guarantee that the situation is true.”

Wang Xiaopang asked incomprehensibly: “Manager Chen, A Jun is just a guest starring in a supporting role. Wouldn’t his fans be so crazy, right?”

Manager Chen said: “We learned from the audience’s questionnaire that those people ran into the theater to learn songs, that is the theme song “Hua Hua Zhe Zhe”. These people have watched “Hua Xin Da Young” once, and then I went to the market to find a record of the theme song, and found that Luo Junyan hadn’t made a record at all. Then I had to go back to the theater to memorize lyrics and music.”

Wang Xiaopang was speechless for a while. When Luo Junyan showed him “The Flower Guardian”, he still felt that the tune was too noisy and not suitable for romance films.

In the end, Luo Junyan set up his friendship and moved out the pay, so he had to reluctantly accept it. But now he hasn’t figured out why so many people pursue his song? Could it be true that he is the messenger who guards the “Faith”?

In fact, the reason is simple. Xiangjiang’s first hit song suitable for Disco, Luo Junyan’s “Flower Protector” took the place of the originator of Rong’s “Monica” in advance.

Fang Yihua would not consider the reason, and without hesitation, he said directly: “Axiang, you immediately contact Luo Junyan and ask him to sing in various theaters to cooperate with the movie’s publicity. You tell him that if the box office of the film exceeds 10 million, I will Seal a big red envelope to him personally.”

Wang Xiaopang nodded quickly.

Next, things became even more bizarre.

Luo Junyan began to cooperate with the publicity work of “Familiarity” the next day. With a simple stage in front of the theater and an electronic band, Luo Junyan started his first street singing and dancing performance.

There were not many crowds at the beginning, but soon the situation was completely different.

Brother Cheng speeded up the rhythm of the song at the beginning. Although there is still no electronic synthesizer equipment, the live electronic band can be considered to deal with it. Luo Junyan’s newly released miniature microphone was hanging around her mouth. As the rhythm was strong and the dynamic music played, his body immediately moved.

I ran into her in my heart this night in the street

Two feet decided not to listen to the call and go home with her

The late night cold wind is not allowed to blow her

Her faint eyes are about to talk to me

The slender figure, the fluttering figure, silently turn around

Tell me a romantic lover loves me

Greedy evening breeze dared to kiss her

Lay down every strand of her hair tenderly and tenderly

The despicable evening breeze shouldn’t comfort her

I have decided to protect her in my heart for my whole life

Luo Junyan danced popular dance steps this time, in fact, it is the modern street dance of later generations. His whole body is coordinated up and down, the dance moves are brisk and smooth, and the dance moves are novel and exciting.

The more people gathered under the stage, most of them were young people, and their bodies moved unconsciously to the rhythm of the stage. This year, the younger generation of Xiangjiang began to pursue unconventionalism. This kind of fast song has never been heard before. It sounds 10,000 times better than the dance music of Disco, plus the dynamic dance performed by Luo Junyan.

This was ruined. The street was full of people, and the young people waved their arms to the song.

Luo Junyan couldn’t even sing three times. As long as he stopped, there was a shout again, and the applause in the audience was even louder.

On the first day of the promotion, only two theaters were used, but by the end, Luo Junyan’s legs were trembling. However, the effect of the film’s publicity was unexpectedly good. The two theaters were all full, and the attendance rates of other theaters also began to rise sharply.

On the sixth day of the release of “Faith Young”, the box office directly surpassed one million in a single day.

The next propaganda will be terrible. People who listen to songs and learn to dance are everywhere, and many of them are club brothers sent by Disco.

The dance steps of this song are really so fast. Discouli is full of young people who follow suit, but the song has not been released at all, and the modern dance steps of this fast song are not so easy to practice. As a result, in order not to lose customers and seize the trend forward, Disco, who had a background in various clubs, had to send a large number of younger brothers to learn singing and dancing.

Where Luo Junyan is now, the adjacent blocks must be closed, and the police have to be dispatched to maintain order. It is said that the actor of “The Heart of the Flower” also went to see him, did not dare to show up and did not wait much. It is estimated that this time he knew what the influence of the emperor superstar is.

The box office of “Hua Heart” is 5.25 million in a single week. Based on the rising attendance rate, this film is destined to become the first film in the history of Shaw Brothers Film Company with a box office of over 10 million.

But Luo Junyan can’t continue performing on the street. Not only was the police department unable to withstand the pressure of traffic security, but Shao had to stop the publicity of the performance, and ATV also ordered Luo Junyan to return to the TV station immediately.

The film was released to the first day of the second week, and Luo Junyan performed the last street publicity performance.

This time he wore a suit and danced Latin dance steps, which immediately shocked the audience, which was different from the stuff that the public wandered around. Elegance and fashion are combined, and major newspapers put photos of him while dancing on the front page of the entertainment version, and all kinds of admiration are overwhelming.

As for Luo Junyan’s negative news, it has long been unattractive. Newspapers are unprofitable and can not afford to be early, who will have trouble with the circulation, do not mention the past, who has not experienced the storm. Among the citizens, those who scolded Luo Junyan were still scolding, but this time the content of scolding Luo Junyan was grandiose and outrageous.

ATV hurriedly summoned Luo Junyan back to the stage because it specially tailored a temporary program for him to teach the dance steps of “The Flower Guardian”. It is broadcast every evening, the program lasts 15 minutes, and teaches the decomposition of dance steps.

In addition, both Xiangjiang Polygram and Warner Records have found ATV, hoping to cooperate with Luo Junyan to release the single record of “The Flower Protector”. As long as this record is on the market, each disco will be able to grab a lot of it. The clubs usually buy records in boxes or boxes, or I don’t have enough points.

Wu Zhengyuan, the general manager of HeungKang Warner, even went out to meet ATV executives in person. Wu Zhengyuan is Lin Zixiang’s wife, a female manager with vision and ability, and is well-known in the Xiangjiang music scene.

The first time Luo Junyan returned to the TV station, Qiu Degen was called to the office, and Mei Xiaoqing, the latest TV drama producer promoted by ATV, was also there.

Qiu Degen didn’t say much, just confessed that Luo Junyan will actively cooperate with Mei Xiaoqing in the next step to create a fashion drama that can compete with TVB. ATV is a two-way attack, and the main force is still in the costume drama. Luo Junyan can be regarded as a surprise soldier.

This is tailor-made for Luo Junyan. Originally, ATV executives have decided to use costume dramas as a breakthrough, and fashion dramas have been placed in a secondary position. However, Luo Junyan took the liberty of a sudden emergence. At this moment, there are many young fans and movie fans following him, but he is not suitable for costume appearance.

Qiu Degen had to sigh in his heart that he could stand up even with an inconspicuous opportunity. This might be a reward for his diligence.
