Movie tycoon

Chapter 667 Honor, "Father of Street Dance"

It was said that the news that Chen Xiaotang would come to Hong Kong spread like wildfire.

The first to react was of course the major media reporters, but Chen Xiaotang himself kept a low profile and did not show his face.This made many media have to use people to lurk and track.During this period, major newspapers and magazines, not to be outdone, published headlines such as "The Triumph of a Hero" to highly praise Chen Xiaotang.

Hong Kong "Star Weekly" ---
"Triumph! Triumph! The hero of our film industry, Chen Xiaotang, has finally returned from the battlefield of Hollywood! With glory and glory, with the expectations of the Chinese film industry for him, with unswerving steps, he has written a new generation of kung fu. King's legend!"

Regarding this piece of news, Chen Xiaotang's self-evaluation that cannot be hidden is that when I went to Hollywood, everyone said that I was going to die, how did I become the expectation of the Chinese film industry in a blink of an eye? !There are also unwavering steps, as if a certain newspaper mocked me as a soft-footed shrimp when I was walking...

Hong Kong "Entertainment World" ---
"Victory! Huge victory! It's obvious that Chen Xiaotang has returned victoriously! During this period of time, Hollywood has been turned upside down. Our hero is there, calling himself brother and brother with Mike, dancing hot dances with Madonna, and becoming a shareholder of Light & Magic... All these things tell us, We Chinese can also play in Hollywood, and we can also dominate the situation. Chinese people, rise up!"

Regarding this comment article, Chen Xiaotang's reaction was, first, I'm not Monkey Sun, so I don't need to make such a big fuss.Second, the hot dance can be deleted, so as not to cause misunderstanding, especially those who like to gossip about men and women.Thirdly, Chinese people want to stand up, not shouting hysterically and screaming like a pipe. Action is the key!

Hong Kong "Ming Pao" ---
"At one time, we in Hong Kong were proud and Chinese-language films were proud, and that was the period when Bruce Lee represented Hong Kong films in kung fu movies. But with Bruce Lee's untimely death, our Hong Kong films once again plummeted in the international film world. The only thing that can The ones that can be sold are comedies in the style of self-entertainment. It seems that the glory of kung fu movies has left us, but at this moment, the appearance of Chen Xiaotang undoubtedly gave us blood, and let me see our new kung fu movies. hope. This time his success in Hollywood has once again proved this point, telling us that as long as we stick to our dreams, our films will definitely be able to go global!"

Chen Xiaotang's personal evaluation of the report in "Ming Pao" is that it is very pertinent and worthy of the newspaper he invested in, but having a dream does not mean that it will be realized.Perseverance does not mean success.In addition to dreams and perseverance, we must also have talent and creativity!He who can create the world is his own God!
No matter how Chen Xiaotang hid at home and commented on the media reports, there was a lot of public opinion outside, which can be described as smoky.

Those fans who liked him spontaneously organized into a team to beat drums and gongs to celebrate his return to his hometown.

This once again made Chen Xiaotang one head and two big heads, wondering how the fans' hobbies are so similar to his mother's, and they seem to have a special liking for the culture of beating gongs and drums.Fortunately, there is no lion dance this time.

As Chen Xiaotang's largest fan association, the "Lafite Party", under the leadership of Zhang Xiaohua, who is also Chen Xiaotang's No. Praise for one thing.

The reason is:

First, Chen Xiaotang greatly enhanced Hong Kong's international reputation in Hollywood.

Second, second, Chen Xiaotang represents tens of thousands of Chinese and adds luster to the Chinese.

Third, the British Hong Kong government should care about the entertainment industry in Hong Kong, pay attention to everything, and give clear rewards and punishments.

Sir Youde, the Governor of Hong Kong, is so hard, this Rafi Chen is really a big trouble, you will turn Hong Kong upside down if you go out and show off, if one day you wander around for a few years, Hong Kong will collapse? !

As for the reward, Youde thought about it, didn't he want to give Chen Xiaotang the title of "Gentleman of Balance" before, but unfortunately that guy refused it because he didn't appreciate it, now it doesn't matter if he wants to give it to him or not!

Thinking of this, our Lord Governor of Hong Kong smiled triumphantly: Dear Chen, don't you want to owe me favors, and now I want to give you a high hat!

Chen Xiaotang didn't know that someone had already missed him. He was writing the script of "League of Assassins" in his study and sneezed hard.

At this time, Fatty Wang Jing walked in and said that the celebration party was ready and he was just waiting for his formal attendance.

Chen Xiaotang put down the script in his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go!"

……

The celebration party, commonly known as the "Commendation Conference", is generally a representative model banquet held by a film company to encourage employees and reward actors after a movie is sold well.

But this time, for the Hong Kong media, Chen Xiaotang's ability to hold such a celebration party in Hong Kong is definitely a great encouragement—an encouragement to Hong Kong films and filmmakers.

Therefore, without waiting for the people from Moying Entertainment to greet them, various media have spontaneously rushed towards the destination --- the Hilton Hotel.

Seeing the turmoil of the crowd, the Hilton Hotel has completely become a "bright roof", newspapers, magazines, TV media, Hong Kong media, Japanese reporters, and Korean paparazzi have come here one after another.

Thanks to the timely arrangement by the organizers, and the golden signboard of the Hilton Hotel, these reporters were not allowed to sit on the floor. Even so, the entire hall of the celebration party was packed with people, like a dark cloud. Crowded.

Faced with such a situation, the people who were most nervous were not the people from Moying Entertainment, but the people from the hotel, especially the hotel boss who came to help maintain order.Think about it, with so many people, what should we do if something happens?It's a trivial matter if the signboard is smashed, but it's a disaster if you lose your job.

The most exciting thing is undoubtedly the various media. Everyone is vying to interview the big star Chen Xiaotang, but unfortunately he just doesn't show his face. This is good. After Chen Xiaotang returns to Hong Kong, he will finally make a public appearance. No matter what, we must get out of him. Some revelations to come.

In the past, Chen Xiaotang was just the king of entertainment in Hong Kong, but now Chen Xiaotang has risen to a world-class superstar. The status and meaning are different, and the revelations that can be picked up are absolutely different!
All the paparazzi waited for Chen Xiaotang to appear, and then shouted: "Fire him!"

Time passed minute by minute.

Everyone is anxiously waiting.

It's been a long time since I've waited for someone like this. I used to wait for the Governor of Hong Kong and other dignitaries from various countries.But never waited so willingly for a star.

Undoubtedly, Chen Xiaotang broke this law and made all the media in Hong Kong and even Asia willingly wait for him here without hesitation.Its purpose is only one, to find news, catch the news!In fact, many media who have been waiting hard are proud of it. You know, it is definitely an honor to be able to wait for a world-class superstar!

Come, Chen Xiaotang finally came.

"Tang Zai, I love you!"

"A Tang, we like you!"

"Chen Xiaotang, you are the best!!!" The fans and movie fans yelled, hysterical, and some even started to sob.

After all, it is hard to describe the excitement of being able to meet my idol, who has just shone brightly in Hollywood, perhaps only the tears of excitement can express my inner feelings at this moment.

The whole scene was chaotic.

Shouting loudly.

So much so that those foreign media reporters had to marvel: "Lafite Chen's influence has reached a terrifying level. Just looking at these crazy fans and fans, you can know how popular he is here!"

Faced with such a violent situation, seeing that the security guards of the hotel could no longer stop him, Chen Xiaotang had no choice but to stand up and wave to everyone, and shouted to help maintain order.

Idols are idols after all!
Uranus is Uranus after all!
The originally stormy crowd immediately became quiet after Chen Xiaotang said a few words, which made those ghost reporters have to marvel at Chen Xiaotang's radiation ability again - it simply surpassed the atomic bomb.

The whole scene finally quieted down.

Along with Chen Xiaotang this time are other members of the "Assassin's Creed" crew, producer Wang Jing, director Cheng Xiaodong, photographer Du Kefeng, heroine Wang Zuxian and so on.As for the ghosts Jean-Claude Van Damme and Lundgren, they are not in the ranks. The reason is very simple. After the filming, the big guy will say goodbye to the two of them. There is no need to book air tickets for them for this celebration banquet. Money.

As I said before, the celebration banquet is commonly known as the commendation meeting. Since it is a commendation meeting, it must be decent. In addition to eating, drinking and having fun, we must also gather everyone to talk, not to mention that there are so many media reporters. Don’t take the opportunity to be a reporter. What, is it not a loss? !

So, before eating, drinking and having fun, I saw Chen Xiaotang and his group first arrived on the stage to speak, and then sat upright.

On the left of Chen Xiaotang are Wang Zuxian and Fatty Wang Jing; on the right are Cheng Xiaodong and Du Kefeng.He sat in the middle, the old god was there, and he looked like a big star and big boss.

Before Chen Xiaotang and others announced the start of the meeting, the reporters couldn't wait to ask questions, and everyone was targeting Chen Xiaotang, and most of the topics they asked had nothing to do with the big-selling movies.

"Tang Zai, recently there is a new form of dance popular in the United States called hip-hop. It is said that you created this dance and you named it so that many people respectfully call you the 'father of hip-hop'. Excuse me, these Is it all true?"

"It is true that street dance is popular in the United States, but I dare not boast that I am the 'father of street dance', because the inspiration for my dance actually comes from the black dance in the United States. Therefore, they are the original creators of this dance. Without them Give me inspiration, this kind of street dance can't be formed!"

When Chen Xiaotang said this, he was absolutely sincere. Originally, whether it was break dancing or hip-hop, it was all created by black Americans. He was absolutely right.

But hearing these words in the reporter's ears was a different taste.

Chen Xiaotang is too modest!
What a man, what a noble sentiment!

And after this passage was spread to the United States, the black Americans were even more grateful for wearing such a big hat for us, good man!
The reporter who asked the question seemed to be moved by Chen Xiaotang's open-minded sentiment, and his tone was full of admiration, and he continued to ask: "Now the singers of Moying Entertainment have released street dance MVs, may I ask you to choreograph these street dances?" ?”

"It can't be said that I choreographed it all myself. In fact, each of those street dancers is an excellent singer selected by me from the company. As a singer, they are inseparable in singing and dancing. Their understanding of street dance is far better than that of Ordinary people are much better. Often after I make up a movement, more wonderful movements can be derived. It is with the joint efforts of everyone that our dance can achieve such an effect. I think everyone is very happy. Love our dancing..."

Chen Xiaotang was humble again, he didn't take the credit for it, but gave it to the singers in his company. Appropriately praising them in public is better than any incentive. This is one of Chen Xiaotang's strategies as the boss.

"Then, in your opinion, who is the most capable singer in your company to inherit your mantle and become the king of dancing in Hong Kong?"

"Hehe, this question is quite weird. Why do I feel that I am about to pass away...to inherit the mantle..." Chen Xiaotang laughed dumbfoundedly.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, maybe my words are wrong, what I mean is that you are now honored as a world-class dance god, so it is inappropriate to call you Hong Kong dance king, then we want to I know, besides you, who is most qualified to lead this title?" The reporter wiped the cold sweat from his brow, and carefully organized his words so as not to make mistakes again.

"Hehe, don't be nervous, I was just joking with you just now." Seeing his appearance, Chen Xiaotang smiled, "Actually, I think the singers under our banner are all hardworking, such as Hua Tsai, Xueyou, Liming, and Chengcheng. But When it comes to dancing skills, I am still more optimistic about Chengcheng, he is a dancer himself, he was a backup dancer before becoming a singer, and his dancing skills are very good, so I am optimistic about him..."

Chen Xiaotang's words are extraordinary, one must know that his current status is not trivial, he is not only the president of Moying Entertainment, but also a world-class superstar, every word and deed can affect someone's development.

Just such a sentence "I like him", everyone can conclude that this Guo Fucheng will definitely have a bright future!
In fact, Chen Xiaotang did not say these words without brain consideration, on the contrary, he considered them very maturely.

Why praise Guo Fucheng?Because Chen Xiaotang is anxious to create Hong Kong's "Four Heavenly Kings".

Originally, Hong Kong's "Four Heavenly Kings" didn't take shape until the 90s, but Chen Xiaotang was in a hurry. Now Liu Dehua, Zhang Xueyou, Liming, and Guo Fucheng have signed contracts with their own company, which means they are artists under their own banner, but the development of each of them Neither is balanced.Liu Dehua is highly praised by Chen Xiaotang, a good friend, which can be described as a three-period development of film and television songs; Zhang Xueyou himself sings very well, and there are a lot of fans who like him; Liming's elegant and handsome appearance is deeply loved by fans; The reason is that he is not grown up, not to mention that his singing skills are the worst among the four.

It was precisely because of Guo Fucheng's hind legs that the "Four Heavenly Kings" were delayed and difficult to deliver.

If you insist on giving them such a title, I'm afraid other fans won't buy it, they can still become kings with such poor singing skills, show off!
That's why Chen Xiaotang properly praised Guo Fucheng on such an occasion. He believed that as soon as this word got out, Guo Fucheng's reputation would be immediately enhanced.

In fact, Chen Xiaotang's guess was right. Just as he said this, Guo Fucheng, who was watching the live broadcast, was already crying with gratitude, and then he yelled hard as if he had been pumped out: "Work hard, struggle!"

And as a supporter of Chen Xiaotang, he also began to be curious about this "Guo Fucheng". In the future, Guo Tianwang will avoid many detours, and the road of stars will be smooth.

Seeing that Chen Xiaotang answered every question without any pretentiousness, everyone liked him even more, and the reporters spared no effort to ask some gossip questions.

What kind of person is Chen Xiaotang? Facing these wolf-like reporters, he has already become a master. It can be said that he does not have the slightest stage fright when he talks freely, and he even makes jokes from time to time to adjust the atmosphere.

However, these reporters pushed forward, and the more questions they asked, the more confused they became. As the subject of the interview, Chen Xiaotang had to knock on the table to remind them: "Sorry, if I remember correctly, this is a celebration banquet for our crew, not an announcement about my personal issues. Yes, so I hope everyone can turn to the main topic and don’t ask about other irrelevant things, thank you for your cooperation!”

As soon as he said this, the reporters were too embarrassed to chase after him, so they had to change the subject and ask: "Tang Zai, I heard that your movie is a big hit this time, so would you consider making a sequel?"

Reporters have a very strong vision, and what they see is definitely not just what is on the surface. An excellent reporter can always find the most newsworthy point in the very subtle details!
Having said that, Chen Xiaotang never disclosed that he was planning to make a sequel, but these reporters still guessed it, so they cannot be praised for being professional.

In fact, Chen Xiaotang also thinks highly of these reporters. Why, you must know that Hong Kong movies have a characteristic of "following the trend". Once a movie is a big hit, the second and third movies will be released one after another, such as "Huang Feihong" in the previous life. series, the "Invincible in the East" series, the "Dark War" series, the "Infernal Affairs" series, and the "Ip Man" series, etc...
Take the "Ip Man" series as an example. Zhen Zidan played "Ip Man 1" and the box office exceeded 3 million. Well, the investment boss is happy, so the big guys got together to discuss, why don't we take advantage of the victory and pursue a new one? Come out... After beating the Japanese, it doesn't matter, let's beat the foreigners.It doesn't matter after beating the foreigners, let's play [-]D.In short, as long as it can make money, it's okay to transform Ip Man into an Ultraman to fight monsters!

This shows how weird and grotesque the follow-up culture of Hong Kong movies is.According to the habit of thinking, the reporters would wonder if Chen Xiaotang would make a sequel to "Assassin's Creed", not to mention, they were really fooled this time.
