Movie tycoon

Chapter 593 Entertainment Emperor
It is said that Chen Xiaotang designed the script on the hospital bed, so the "Once Upon a Time" series and the nonsensical comedy series came out ahead of time.

But as the saying goes, people’s hearts are not enough to swallow an elephant. Although Zhou Xingchi and Li Lianjie are two big names in Moying Entertainment, Chen Xiaotang feels that it is not enough. ", just waiting for the day when he was discharged from the hospital to ascend, and now Moying is definitely "incompetent and weak", so in order to make up for the big loophole of his absence, Chen Xiaotang wrote another super script that can wipe out all the big names in Habit, that is, the previous life The sound of thunder is deafening, whoever looks at it laughs, there is no limit to madness, and the comedy that plays on the big screen - "East Makes West"!
It is said that when Wang Jiawei in his previous life was preparing to shoot "Evil, West, Poison" in 1992, because the cast was too luxurious, the investors were afraid that they would not be able to recoup the cost, so they asked this fellow to make a popular comedy version with the same cast.Therefore, with "East and West", the actors are almost the same as the original cast, but, in "East and West", Wang Jiawei is not the director, but only the producer, and the director is Liu Zhenwei who directed "A Chinese Journey to the West".

"East Becomes West" can be said to be an extremely funny film. Here, the plot itself is not important, and the characters are just the names and simple backgrounds borrowed from Jin Yong's novels. The characters here have become funny geniuses, coupled with Liu Zhenwei's unrestrained imagination, many plots really make people laugh.

The candid flamboyant fists and embroidered legs and the use of stunts that almost reveal their shortcomings in "East Becomes West" are a rebellion against the entire new martial arts movie.In the film, Lin Qingxia's "Wuxianggong" is really Wuxiang, and Zhang Guorong and Liang Jiahui's "flick of the fingers" battle against Yiyangzhi is clearly a gunfight. It can't tell you more clearly how the new martial arts movie is made.As for the jokes such as "Lovely Knife", "Eyes and Swords", "Dry Firewood and Fire Palm", they are not only mocking the entire new martial arts movie, but also directly pointing the finger at the instigator Jin Daxia.The old naughty boy seems to have practiced evil swordsmanship and still has sex with his senior brother. The sissy Nandi finally ascended to heaven and became Jigong. Enjoy.

But what Chen Xiaotang appreciates most is Liang Chaowei's appearance as a duckling with a sausage mouth in his mouth, and Liang Jiahui's pseudo-mother version of Duan Wangye.Especially Liang Jiahui's singing and dancing performance in the film was "impressive".Let's look at him disguised as a girl and dressed up as a singer, her hairstyle looks like she has just been bombed by an enemy plane, and her appearance is too ugly to look at.While wildly dancing novel dances, they sang "Handsome guy, you are a new generation of mountain monsters".A face appears longer and more menacing under the anamorphic push and pull of the lens.With a charming smile on his face, and a strange and yin and yang face.It was so ugly that heaven and people resented it, and both humans and gods were indignant.It sang until Huang Yaoshi, played by Zhang Guorong, passed out, and sang until the audience laughed so hard that their whole body cramped.Liang Jiahui is probably the only celebrity who is so weird.

Therefore, when Chen Xiaotang wrote this script, he had already made up his mind. Even if he didn't want his "old face", he would invite big names like Liang Jiahui, Zhang Guorong, and Lin Qingxia. Without it, Only for the smooth shooting of this drama.

Not to mention, after Chen Xiaotang finished writing the script, he immediately called these big guys. During the phone call, Chen Xiaotang first stated his deep "friendship" for a while, such as going through the happy days of drinking and singing together, catching butterflies together and watching The setting sun, the horse killing the chicken and the sauna... It was so sensational that it almost made people cry; then he said that he was "still sick", and he barely wrote a script that can be called a classic drama with golden lights. It was a great event to bring forth the old and bring forth the new in the genre of comedy movies, so that the other party didn't even have an excuse to refuse.

Just when the big stars Zhang Guorong, Liang Jiahui and others agreed to join this drama on the phone, and told Chen Xiaotang to take good rest and not to work too hard, someone was running happily on the hospital bed like a big horse monkey , The sickness of the bird.

Apart from movies, Chen Xiaotang also needs to pay attention to the development of TV.As a new shareholder of ATV, Chen Xiaotang certainly will not forget the benefits of ATV.

After contacting ATV boss Qiu Degen, he also sent several other scripts of his own.The scripts sent over were "Silver Fox" and "The King of Drama Kings".

If I recall correctly, both of these dramas used to be ATV classics.

Among them, "Silver Fox" is starring Huang Rihua, and it tells the story of the struggle for hegemony in the Hong Kong film industry in the 50s.The human nature is vividly portrayed, and the performances of Jiang Hua and Lu Songxian are even more remarkable.However, Chen Xiaotang still prefers the dark-bellied Brother Hua. He played "Duan Shaoxiang", with a huge difference in character before and after, and the characterization is also very powerful.Especially the opening paragraph "Right and wrong, never leave, never give up, drunken life and dream of death, recreate the world", it is very enjoyable to listen to, and directly points out the theme.

As for "The King of Drama Kings", it is Chen Xiaotang's favorite.

This play tells almost all the stories of the entertainment industry, which is very close to people's lives.Especially the suffering behind the stars, and the intrigue and competition among film companies are vividly portrayed.I have to mention here that there are still shadows of Jiang Hua and Lu Songxian in this play, but this time they are not playing brothers, but a pair of very good friends.Both of them like movies, and the last one became a star, and the other became a director. The paths they chose were different, and the results were also different.

Jiang Hua and Lu Songxian's acting skills in this drama are still remarkable, but Chen Xiaotang's favorite is still not them, but "Fang Gang" who plays the big villain.

Speaking of who is the number one villain in the Hong Kong film industry, it is not Wu Zhenyu, Sheng, and Yang, but their predecessor Fang Gang!
On that bumpy face, you could give this screen veteran villain the most outrageous adjectives.Fang Gang will never play that kind of villainous unknown junior. He will always be the worst, biggest, and most vicious. For the first time in the history of Hong Kong film, a prime-time TV series was pushed to the midnight show because of the Fang Gang.

Fang Gang did all kinds of evil on the screen, with a pimple all over his face, and he looked evil when he looked at it. It can be said that he is the best actor in Hong Kong's entertainment industry.This gentleman is very good at picking characters, whether it is the big villain Song Xueli in "Silver Fox", Qiao Gang in "The King of Showmen", or the poor big guy who was "on his stomach" in Cheng Long's "Miracle", he all The interpretation is superb.

Looking back, the reason why Chen Xiaotang helped ATV to create these two sets of scripts was because ATV was preparing to launch two newcomers, Jiang Hua and Lu Songxian, and this drama could just help them build their personal images and help them become popular Second, relying on Chen Xiaotang's previous "Rogue Tycoon", the fashion dramas created by ATV have become a recognized strength, and these two dramas can create even more brilliance.

As expected, after receiving Chen Xiaotang's script, ATV paid great attention to it.Reviews and discussions were conducted overnight, and the project was decided to start shooting the next morning.This kind of high speed is unprecedented in ATV, which shows their recognition of Chen Xiaotang's creative talent and sharp vision.

Time flies, and more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, relying on the TV script provided by Chen Xiaotang, ATV filmed and broadcast two dramas "Silver Fox" and "King of the King of Shows" at the same time, defeating its old rival TVB to the ground.

TVB is also tough here, just smashing its teeth and swallowing it in its stomach, but seeing its ratings being overwhelmed by ATV, and the proud prime time has become cannon fodder for others, this feeling is not to mention sad, like death The widow who lost her husband is full of bitterness.

At this time, the TVB bigwigs suddenly remembered that the reason why ATV was so strong like taking aphrodisiac medicine was because Chen Xiaotang was behind it.Since other people's ATV can "leverage their strengths", why can't they have a good time and insist on being a widow without a man?Don't forget, he, Chen Xiaotang, has a crushing "big appointment" with TVB.If you don't make a move at this time, when will you wait? !

Therefore, as the strong woman behind Wireless Shao Daheng, sixth aunt Fang Yihua couldn't sit still any longer, and personally visited Chen Xiaotang, the "super patient".And make up your mind, if necessary, give him a "bawang hard bow", if you don't shoot him, you have to shoot!

When Aunt Six walked into the ward, Chen Xiaotang was leisurely lying on the hospital bed "eating grapes without throwing up the grape skins".

Seeing Aunt Six, Chen Xiaotang was visibly startled, not because she appeared too suddenly, but because she had nothing in her hand, no flowers, no fruit basket, not even a basic condolence item.

That's not like the attitude of the rich.Could it be that the sixth aunt has obtained the true biography of the sixth uncle and his old man, and wants to carry on the trickery to the end? !

Finally, after Aunt Six saw Chen Xiaotang, she still took out her things.

That's right!After all, I am still a patient, so I want to give some condolences and encouragement.Chen Xiaotang said cautiously.

But when he saw what he took out, he coughed and couldn't help vomiting blood.

It wasn't an apple, it wasn't a pineapple, and it wasn't the flowers hidden in his bosom, but it turned out to be the "big contract" he signed with Wireless!
Pick, I have been busy helping the company develop, how could I forget this? !
Seeing Chen Xiaotang's stunned expression.

Aunt Six is ​​very satisfied.Let me ask, who else can surprise a big star so much? !Very little.

"Sixth Aunt, what do you mean by taking out this contract?"

"What do you mean? Of course I want you to fulfill it!"

"Ahem, this, I will, but can you give me a little time first?"

"Why, you want to renege on the contract?" Aunt Six stared.

Chen Xiaotang smiled wryly. In fact, according to Chen Xiaotang's current status, if he really went to film a TV series, it would be a bit of a waste of value.And breaching the contract would mean paying liquidated damages. Chen Xiaotang is worth [-] million yuan. Are you afraid of this? !

Unfortunately, Chen Xiaotang is not such a person!

In his whole life, he has never breached a contract!
Even a small date with a friend has not been violated!
So he could only say: "Sixth Aunt, you should at least give me some time to think about the script or something, and I can't be snatched away by you to film the movie right away..."

Sixth Aunt snorted coldly, but she was actually a little afraid that Chen Xiaotang would rather pay liquidated damages than make TV dramas, then she could do nothing about it. She didn't expect Chen Xiaotang to be so easy-going, so she became more confident and said, "Don't blame me. Bullying you, you'd better get out of the hospital as soon as you get out of the hospital and come to our wireless filming... As for the script, if you don't like what we provide, you can write one yourself, and we will pay you the script fee according to the highest standard of the TV station! "

These words sounded glamorous, but in fact the sixth aunt was cheating Chen Xiaotang without any rules.

You must know that Chen Xiaotang is a well-known figure in Hong Kong today, especially he is known as the number one talent in Hong Kong, and the songs he wrote can be sold for 100 million yuan, let alone the script. There are few, but what is the highest standard for wireless scripts?Everyone in the circle knows that if you can give you 300, you are already thankful!
So when he said these words, Aunt Six and others were confident in front of them, and when they said "pay you the highest script fee", they still couldn't help but blush.

Chen Xiaotang didn't mind at all "how much the manuscript fee was", on the contrary, what he valued most was whether he had enough time.

Time is a luxury for him now.As soon as I was discharged from the hospital, there were definitely a lot of things to do, and it was really unknown whether I would be able to spare time to fulfill my contract with Wireless.

Aunt Six didn't care if he could make time for it. From her point of view, Chen Xiaotang was a good kid, at least he didn't play tricks. Out of concern, Aunt Six broke the news to Chen Xiaotang, saying: "Tang Zai, You probably don’t know yet, the two dramas you filmed, "Jing Wu Heroes" and "Uncle", have already been shortlisted for this year's Academy Awards, just like Yongsheng Entertainment's "Waiting for Dawn", and our TV station has already purchased them. The broadcasting rights of the Academy Awards, when the time comes, you will have to show your face on stage!"

Chen Xiaotang was surprised, he really didn't expect his play to be shortlisted, "Jing Wu Heroes" was justified, and "Uncle" was so respected... But thinking about the previous life, this play was popular in Korea and Asia. Chen Xiaotang felt relieved at the film festival.

Next, Aunt Six took the trouble to talk about the awards Chen Xiaotang was nominated for this time, and she was nominated for several, including Best Screenplay, Best Director, and Best Actor!

It's a blast!

Chen Xiaotang didn't give face as much as the Organizing Committee of the Golden Statue Awards, then Wu Siyuan didn't have a grudge against him, why was he so relieved to let him enter the selection? !
Chen Xiaotang didn't know that during his hospitalization, the Hong Kong Film Awards Organizing Committee had been systematically "assimilated" by the government. The British Hong Kong government installed government officials in the Organizing Committee on the grounds of "assisting the development of Hong Kong films". , and Chen Xiaotang himself is very close to these important officials; what's more, Chen Xiaotang himself has an excellent reputation for making movies, and where the voice of the people is, he can't justify it if he is not shortlisted.

If this decision upsets anyone the most, it is undoubtedly Xiang Huasheng, the big boss of Yongsheng Entertainment, and Ni Zhen, their first talented screenwriter.

Recently, Chen Xiaotang's popularity is too bloody.

After getting shot, you can die obediently, and then die in glory, and you will go down in history forever, how wonderful, but you are still playing against the sky, and you actually came back alive from the hospital.

This is too disrespectful to Lord Hades!

Xiang Huasheng and the others even wondered if Chen Xiaotang was hooking up with Lord Yan, and even though he was shot in the chest at such a close distance, he was still alive and kicking.No reason!
But this is not something that bothers them. It’s fine for you, Chen Xiaotang, to stay alive and recuperate in the hospital, but you arranged for someone to set up a magic shadow fund. I choose. This fund is very popular. The aunts who brought tea and water at home took out their coffin books and bought a lot.

Xiang Huasheng despises, despises, despises this kind of person who can make more money than himself!

It's not easy enough for us to join the club. Sometimes we work with our heads tied to our belts, which makes us some capital. Now we start playing bleach, only to find that making movies is so easy to make money. But looking at you, Chen Xiaotang, it's simply Robbing a bank is even more exciting than robbing a bank!

They also come out to mix, why is there such a big gap in realm? !

Well, you can make money, let's not talk about it, we can only admire it!But you are earning fame in addition to earning money!This is inexcusable!
Now you are very popular and prosperous, even more prosperous than our Xiang family's Wangcai, that's okay, but this time I will win the Golden Statue Award, but you suddenly appeared to meddle, so it's okay to be shortlisted , It turned out to be two plays!

I'll fuck you big watermelon!
Lao Tzu's filming this time is mainly for winning awards, so he doesn't even want the box office.It's so irritating that you guys want to win all the box office awards!

Xiang Hua Sheng and others didn't believe that sentence before, but now they do.

Then the words are: people compare with people, and people are mad!
But things have come to this point, that bastard Wu Siyuan does nothing, the bullshit chairman of the Academy Award, still nods and bows in front of the government, people say that "Jing Wu Hero" and "Uncle" are nominated, he dare not let go one.

Now that it's a certainty, it's like betting on a horse to see who can win in the end.

Here, under Fang Yihua's explanation, Chen Xiaotang has a general understanding of the situation. In short, this year's Golden Statue Awards are fair, just and open, and the gold content is definitely high.

After explaining the content of this year's Golden Image Awards, Aunt Six patted Chen Xiaotang on the shoulder and said, "Come on, Tang Zai, no matter what you say, you can be regarded as our wireless's biological son. You are now in full bloom, and you are only short of winning an award." Well, if you can make a big splash at this year's Golden Statue, then you will really reach the top of the film industry!"

Hearing Aunt Six's words, Chen Xiaotang immediately felt so proud!

That's right, in the music world, I have already reached the top by relying on the red hall, and now if I can win the Golden Movie Best Actor, I will be regarded as the real emperor of entertainment!

Because recently I have done a lot of revisions in the last chapter of Cracking Down on Emotions~ Color, especially to explain here, alas, there are standards for playing ambiguous, this is our Chinese~Chinese characteristics!
