Movie tycoon

Chapter 6 I want to rely on the sky to slay the dragon
Backstage, the owner of this nightclub, a middle-aged man biting a cigar, was waiting there. When Zheng Shaoqiu got off the stage, he ordered the waitress beside him to hand over a bouquet of flowers and said, "Qiu Guan, you The singing is really good, especially the line "It's rare to have a good skill, you can't get through the emotional barrier" is even more feeling (feeling) than ribbing!"

"You're too flattering, brother Kun. It's just that I feel in place tonight, and I sang pretty well." Zheng Shaoqiu smiled modestly.

"Hehe, I've known you for so long, and from your debut to your popularity, you're still so humble!" Brother Kun bit his cigar and smiled, "You know, Qiu Guan, I just like your personality. Be loyal, just call when you have something to do! Unlike some people, they turn their faces and deny people when they get red, and I don’t know who promoted him at the beginning---"

"Brother Kun, you have helped me a lot, and I have never forgotten that!" Zheng Shaoqiu said modestly, knowing the temper of this Brother Kun.

"Hahaha, okay, let's stop talking so much, we have already prepared a VIP room for you, fine wine, cigars, everything! Of course, there is also Lisa, the most red card in our nightclub---" Brother Kun is obviously very upset I am happy and warmly invite Zheng Shaoqiu.

Zheng Shaoqiu waved his hand and refused: "I think it's better to forget it, and come to join us again when I have a chance."

"It's better to hit the sun than to choose the day -- besides, everything has been prepared, Qiu Guan, you won't be so shameless, right?" Brother Kun squinted at Zheng Shaoqiu.

Zheng Shaoqiu knew he couldn't refuse, so he laughed and said: "Well, I'd rather be respectful than obedient!"

.........

At this moment, in the hall of the nightclub, demons danced wildly, those guys who drank too much were yelling loudly one by one, and the girls who accompanied the drinks started to go to work to make money.

The three poor people like Chen Xiaotang and A-Long and A-Hu can only watch people hug each other, play dice or guess fifteen or twenty.

After coughing, Chen Xiaotang said to Brother Longhu, "I'm going to the bathroom." After speaking, he walked away.

Aaron glanced at Ahu and said, "Why don't we play fifteen or twenty?"

Ahu rolled his eyes at him: "We'll talk about it when you become a woman!"

Chen Xiaotang didn't go to any bathroom, but walked along the corridor towards the VIP room.

Zheng Shaoqiu was very famous, and he knew which private room he was in without asking along the way.

But after walking a few steps, he saw three or four entertainment reporters holding cameras in front of him. He knew at a glance that he wanted to interview Zheng Shaoqiu, but he was stopped here and couldn't get in.

Chen Xiaotang was in trouble and didn't know how to get in.

It happened that a waiter wearing a waiter's costume came towards him with a bottle of champagne, which seemed to be for the celebration in the VIP room.

Chen Xiaotang changed his mind, went up to meet him, and reprimanded: "Why did the wine come? The boss has urged you many times!" After speaking, he grabbed the tray with one hand, "Be careful next time, don't dawdle like this again!!"

The waiter was stunned for a moment, thinking he was someone next to the boss, he nodded and apologized.

Chen Xiaotang took the champagne and walked straight to the place where the security guards intercepted him. Before the security guards could stop him, he went mad again: "What are you doing?! Why haven't you sent these reporters away yet?! Keep them overnight? !"

The security guard was stunned, and Chen Xiaotang pointed at them again: "You guys have 3 minutes to get it done, or I'll get you all done!" After speaking, he crossed over with a glass of champagne.

The security guard looked at me, I was afraid to look at you, and then yelled at the reporters: "Don't leave, you want us to fire!"

…………

When he came to the door of the VIP room, Chen Xiaotang took a deep breath and said to himself, whether he can get to know Zheng Shaoqiu or not depends on this time.

Knocked on the door, then gently pushed it open, and saw Zheng Shaoqiu and a man in the private room talking while drinking.Both of them were accompanied by a very beautiful nightclub girl, who was enchanting and charming.

"Boss, Brother Qiu, the champagne is here!" Chen Xiaotang played a verbal trap in a very clever way.

When Brother Kun heard him call Zheng Shaoqiu "Brother Qiu", he thought he was from Zheng Shaoqiu's side; as for Zheng Shaoqiu, when he heard him call Brother Kun "Big Brother", he thought he was from the other party's side.Both nodded, motioning for him to put down the wine.

Chen Xiaotang put down his drink, and took the initiative to stand aside.Looks like a competent little brother.

Brother Kun and Zheng Shaoqiu opened the champagne to celebrate. During the period, it was inevitable to play tricks, cuddling with the girls around them, and giving fragrance to their lips.All of this was seen by Chen Xiaotang, he was very patient, waiting for his own opportunity.

This is the way to be a human being. If you have ambition, you must have patience. If you have patience, you must have perseverance. Only with perseverance can you rely on the sky and slay the dragon!

Soon, Brother Na Kun went out because he had something to do. After all, tonight was the opening of the nightclub, and he still had a lot of people to entertain.Before leaving, Brother Kun didn't forget to pat the girl's butt and said, "Help me treat Qiu Guan well!"

Those two girls are very well-behaved. As soon as Brother Kun left, they all squeezed into Zheng Shaoqiu's side. One said: "Qiu Guan, you are more handsome than on TV!" The other said: "Qiu Guan, I love you the most Already!" Taking turns pouring wine on him, and kissing him from time to time.It made Zheng Shaoqiu very embarrassed, after all, there was an "outsider" standing in the room.

Chen Xiaotang stood there motionless like an old monk in meditation.

Zheng Shaoqiu coughed twice, then kept saying to him: "Little brother, come and have a drink too!"

Chen Xiaotang waited for this sentence.

His uncle, why is he screaming, his legs are sore.

On the mouth, he said in a very principled way: "I don't think it's good, it looks like my identity..."

"I said it's okay, so it's okay! Come on, I'm boring drinking alone!" Zheng Shaoqiu invited him again.

The woman next to her was unhappy, "What do you mean, Qiu Guan, are we not human, why can't we drink with you?"

Zheng Shaoqiu smiled and said: "Of course you are human, and you are also great beauties, but now I want to have a drink with this little brother, please let me go first?"

The girl had no choice but to vacate her seat, and the two ran to play dice.

Chen Xiaotang took the opportunity to sit down, took out a tissue and handed it over, "Brother Qiu, your face"

Zheng Shaoqiu was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood, he hurriedly took the tissue to wipe off the lipstick marks on his face, and said, "Playing every time! Playing every time!"

Chen Xiaotang raised his glass again without losing the opportunity: "Brother Qiu, come, let me toast you."

Zheng Shaoqiu nodded, and the two clinked a glass.

Chen Xiaotang had various thoughts in his mind. He knew that the opportunity had come, so it was up to him to open the topic and let Zheng Shaoqiu remember him.

"Qiu Ge, I'm actually your fan---" Chen Xiaotang said firmly.

"Fan?" Zheng Shaoqiu was taken aback, thinking that this word was very fresh.But I immediately understood the meaning of foreign language movie fans.He smiled and said, "Then which drama do you like?" You must know that Zheng Shaoqiu's best acting is in costume dramas, and he is also recognized as "Heroes Qiu". In 1978, he played the role of Zhang Wuji in "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji", Wang Mingquan played Zhao Min, Zhao Yazhi played Zhou Zhiruo, and Chen Yulian played Xiao Zhao. "Yitian" was so popular in Hong Kong, it received numerous complaints due to the tragic ending of the series. Under the strong request of the audience in Hong Kong, TVB added a comedy ending. "Yi Tian" became the first TV series in the history of Xiangjiang whose ending was changed at the request of the audience.Mr. Jin Yong once presented an inscription to Zheng Shaoqiu: "Screen knight, valiant and heroic, Jia Luo Wuji, enters people's dreams!".

In 1979, TVB was challenged by Li's TV station, and the ratings were sluggish. Lin Cixiang, the top executive of the TVB production team, urgently mobilized to start filming Gu Long's masterpiece "Chu Liuxiang" and won the ratings.Zheng Shaoqiu was appointed to play the role of Chu Liuxiang when he was in danger, and the elites of Taiwan participated in the battle together. It only took 10 days from the decision to shoot to the broadcast of the first episode. The 65-episode "Chu Liuxiang" won TVB's ratings in one fell swoop, and its fast shooting progress has become a miracle that is widely talked about in the history of Xiangjiang TV dramas.The play was broadcast on Taiwan Island in early 1982, causing a huge sensation in the empty alleys of thousands of people. Xiangshuai swept the island, setting off an unprecedented frenzy of ratings on Taiwan Island, with an audience rating as high as 70%.Mr. Gu Long once said: "People in Baodao only know Zheng Shaoqiu and forget Gu Long, as if Chu Liuxiang himself is Zheng Shaoqiu!"

It can be seen that Zheng Shaoqiu's attainments in costume dramas are absolutely unprecedented.So no matter who it is, as long as they like his plays, they will always talk about ancient costumes.

But Chen Xiaotang was different, he actually said: "I like the fashion drama "72 Tenants" in which you participated!"

Hearing this, Zheng Shaoqiu was stunned, ""72 Tenants"?!"

Chen Xiaotang nodded, "Yes, I like your performance in it very much. Although there are not many scenes, you have brought a firefighter to life!"

"Haha, I didn't expect you to like this drama." Zheng Shaoqiu shook his head.

"I don't know why I like it. Maybe, I think it's more interesting for you to act in fashion dramas. After all, costume dramas are too fake. The characters you play are almost from novels, completely out of reality; fashion dramas are different. I need you To figure out the psychology of the characters well, you need to have excellent acting skills!"

Chen Xiaotang spoke excitedly, and Zheng Shaoqiu listened engrossed.It's like chatting with a beautiful woman. You praise her for being beautiful and shy. Those things are vulgar, and she listens too much. On the contrary, you praise her for her temperament, aristocratic, princess, and queen. Kind of, she will definitely be happy.

Zheng Shaoqiu is famous for making ancient costume films. Everyone praises him for his good looks in ancient costumes, but he has never said that he is good at acting in modern dramas. Now hearing Chen Xiaotang say this, it is inevitable that he feels fresh.

"But Brother Qiu, from your appearance, you are very suitable to play those elegant businessmen or scholars, but your character makes you suitable to play a modern chivalrous man!"

"Modern knight?"

"That's right, modern heroes, or celebrity tycoons—for example, Du Yuesheng!"

Chen Xiaotang is definitely not talking nonsense. You must know that a reporter interviewed Zheng Shaoqiu in his previous life and asked him what he was most satisfied with after so many years of filming. He said that he was most satisfied with "Chu Liuxiang".Then he was asked what role he would most like to play, and he said that he really wanted to play Du Yuesheng, a tycoon in Shanghai, and felt that he looked very similar to him, both thin and very principled.It's a pity that when the Mai Dangxiong brothers filmed the movie "The Emperor of Shanghai", they chose Lu Liangwei, who had a rougher appearance, instead of Zheng Shaoqiu.

Sure enough, when Zheng Shaoqiu heard Chen Xiaotang's words, his eyes lit up and he said, "That's right, you seem to know me very well."

Chen Xiaotang smiled and said, "Didn't I just say that I am your fan!"

The two looked at each other and laughed.

####################################
There are traces of Zheng Shaoqiu's obsession with the role of "Du Yuesheng". The reason why he played Ma Xiaotian in "Shanghai Fengyun" was to fulfill his dream of Du Yuesheng.So there was a conflict with TVB and I went to ATV to shoot this movie.We must know that he was the treasure of TVB at that time, and his defection to ATV caused an uproar.
