1980 My Entertainment Era

Chapter 291 Who? Brigitte Lin!
These two days, Xia Tian and his friends attended the premiere of "Dream of Red Mansions" held by ATV. Xia Tian and Chen Li also went on stage to sing songs from "Dream of Red Mansions".

Xia Tian also sang "Empty Stage Play" with several actors!
A group of men and women dressed in ancient costumes with full of charm sang opera songs on the stage. It was extremely fascinating!

Many viewers said that they liked the song very much. Although it is in Mandarin, most Hong Kong people can understand Mandarin, so it doesn’t have any impact.

After all, it was after 1970 that the British began to vigorously promote Cantonese in Hong Kong.

In other words, most people in Hong Kong used to speak Mandarin!

At that time, there were many more people coming from Shanghai and other places than those who spoke Cantonese.

If it wasn't for the purpose of "sowing discord", the British troublemaker wouldn't have nothing to do but take care of this. It has planted many landmines!
It was also because of the premiere of "Dream of Red Mansions" that Xia Tian's album last year sold more than a thousand copies, and the stock was cleared out!
A few days after the premiere, a "Dream of Red Mansions Costume Exhibition" was held here, which was why Shi Yanqin, a costume designer, came with the group.

By the way, among the costumes on display, there are several sets that belong to Xia Tian - when the crew finished filming, Xia Tian used his connections with Ren Dahui to buy several sets of clothes, head ornaments, and jewelry for Chai and Dai.

Including his own Liu Xianglian's family heirloom mandarin duck sword.

Keep it as a souvenir~
They were all brought to the exhibition this time.

Xia Tian has a lot of experience in organizing fashion shows, and she helped a lot this time.

Originally, Hong Kong people look down on and feel superior to people from the mainland, but it depends on who they are.

The people in the Red Mansion delegation were all considered stars, so the ordinary staff naturally did not dare to neglect them.

What's more, what about facing summer?
After all, Xia Tian is a big star who earns millions a year.
These people even looked up to him.

And Xia Tian's way of dealing with people, speaking and doing things also maximizes the emotional value.

These people are willing to work with Xia Tian, ​​and it’s nice to talk to them!

ATV staff: Brother Tian Er is very capable and speaks nicely. I like Brother Tian Er very much!
Among them is that great intellectual!

Xiao Xu was a little dissatisfied. When he returned to the hotel at night, he pouted and said, "Even if she is from the mainland, she shouldn't be so enthusiastic, right? She keeps calling Tian'er brother long and Tian'er brother short. She is four years older than Xia Tian!"

Zhang Li also shook her head.

At first, Li Zhi was quite enthusiastic, but not so excessive. It was mainly because after the newspapers publicized Xia Tian's achievements and status, he became obviously interested...

Isn't this a bit too explicit?

I can only say that Hong Kong is indeed open, unlike the inland areas which are still very reserved.

Especially people like Li Zhi who come from the mainland, who are scornfully called northern girls, don’t have an easy life here.

It would be the same even if she won the title of "Miss Asia" this year!
Later, she participated in filming a movie and played the leading female role, but it was also a vase role.

Not only was he molested during the filming, but in subsequent activities, he was also hit in the face with a cake by Chow Yun-fat.

It can be said that the fickleness of human nature and the flattery of the powerful and the bullying of the weak have reached the extreme.

Unless you want to quit this industry, you will be forced to climb up - if you are at the bottom you will be stepped on!

Later, Li Zhi actually wanted to cling to the gambling king - how could the gambling king in your movie compare to the gambling king in real life?
Even though the gambling king already had a third wife...it failed in the end and was taken over by Li Lianjie.

……

As "Dream of Red Mansions" was broadcast in Hong Kong these days, newspapers here were also generous in praising it!

Dozens of newspapers and media outlets reported this extensively!
Important Hong Kong newspapers including Ta Kung Pao, Wen Wei Po and Sin Wan Bao spared no effort in publishing in-depth reports.

Ta Kung Pao: This is a "magnificent film" and "Look at the characters in the play, each of them is charming and beautiful, they are the embodiment of the characters in the Grand View Garden, plus the real-life shooting, which makes the story even more perfect."

Wenhui Daily: The production of the series is meticulous and sophisticated, and the scene of Qin Keqing's death is "not even something that can be as grand as this in a movie."

I just don’t know how much of it comes from the heart, and how much is a favor from ATV or purchased press releases?

After the fashion shows, there aren’t many “formal” events in the summer.

Dai Tai also had a "relaxed management" on him and gave him a lot of free time.

Xia Tian and Lou Xiao'e met many times, reviewed the investments and returns of the past few years, and then discussed future development issues.

"Sister Lou, your father's business is quite big, but now most of it has been handed over to your brother. You will definitely have a share in the future, but there is absolutely no reason for He Chen to inherit it..."

"So, if you want He Chen to inherit the family business, you have to work hard!"

"By the way, I have always wanted to support Brother Zhu in starting a business, probably a chain of restaurants or something like that. But the business opportunity inland is not yet right, and you know Brother Zhu's character, which still needs to be polished. We have to wait another two years."

Lou Xiao'e and He Yuzhu have only one son, so the possibility of having a second child at their age is basically eliminated.

In the end, both of their careers will be left to He Chen.

Xia Tian said these words to give her peace of mind.

What Xia Tian wanted Lou Xiao'e to do was to set up a formal company.

Although there have been no major moves in the past one or two years, preparation is the key to success, while lack of preparation leads to failure.

You can’t wait until the last minute to start a company temporarily, right?
Many things and manpower need to be arranged in advance.

Hong Kong has gradually declined since the turn of the century, but in the 1990s, it was a time of prosperity and prosperity.

Whether it is investment or identity, or thinking further ahead, the 97 Asian financial tsunami, all need to be arranged here.

Plan to lay the foundation in advance in the summer!

It is very simple to set up a company in Hong Kong. You just need to pay some money and go through a few procedures.

All the documents are packed in a leather bag, commonly known as a shell company.

This is certainly not the kind of thing we do in the summer.

He told Lou Xiao'e in detail about the development plan and timetable.
The goal in the past two years is to train a group of reliable people, so that I can come here and show my talents in two years. The second is to operate financial investment business in a systematic and formal way.

At present, you can also make small investments in some commercial properties and the like.

Starting this year, Hong Kong’s housing prices will begin to grow rapidly!

On the one hand, there are the economy and population, and on the other hand, the date of return has been determined. Britain is stirring up trouble by pushing up housing prices, sucking the blood of Hong Kong, and laying mines for us in the process.

There is nothing Xia Tian can do about this kind of thing. Even the higher-ups can do nothing about it and can only watch.

Since you can't resist, just follow and reap the benefits!

This wave of house price increases, until before the 97 financial crisis, was a big profit!
Moreover, Xia Tian plans to do some "journalism" based on the old paparazzi Chen Jing and the new paparazzi Yu Tianxing!
Start a newspaper called "Hong Kong Daily News"!
It doesn't seem to be of much use now, it's just for supporting people, but it will definitely be of great use in the future... As I said, you can't cram at the last minute.

Only if you can create some influence and cultivate regular readers in these two years, will you have room to develop in the future!

In the summer, I also took the young people in the delegation to visit some commercial streets, large shopping malls, specialty stores, etc.

Come and bring some gifts for relatives and friends.

Ouyang, Deng Jie and others grinned when they saw the prices!

Xiaoxu and Zhang Li also grabbed Xia Tian and said: Don’t be taken advantage of!

It’s also true in summer, it’s really too expensive.

Finally, I bought something that interested me - a few board games!
"Dungeons & Dragons", "Monopoly" and the like!

……

In a blink of an eye, the Red Mansion delegation had stayed in Hong Kong for more than ten days and would be returning in two days.

Now the members are preparing to go back and start packing their things.

Xia Tian also felt that the international mail might not have reached Sister Yun yet!

“I’m afraid I won’t be able to see you this time.”

However, just as he started packing his luggage, the hotel front desk called and said someone was looking for him.

"Who is it?" Xia Tian asked.

"Lin Qingxia!" The girl at the front desk sounded a little excited!

"Who?"

“Lin Qingxia!”

Xia Tian was in a trance for a moment, then went downstairs.

As soon as he got on the elevator, Zhang Li and Xiao Xu came to look for him. His roommate, Teacher Li Jie, said that he had gone downstairs and someone was looking for him.

Xia Tian came downstairs and saw Brigitte Lin in the hotel lobby as expected.

Brigitte Lin was born in 54 and is 33 years old this year. Six years have passed since I first saw her in the United States!

She and Sister Yun are good friends. She met Sister Yun when she went to the United States in the summer to receive the "Surprise Award" and finalize the publishing.

At that time, as a good friend of Sister Yun, Brigitte Lin was also in the United States.

At that time, Brigitte Lin was very disapproving of the relationship between Sister Yun and Xia Tian, ​​and Xia Tian could see it at a glance.

It’s easy to understand - judging from cross-strait relations, there will be no results.

"Sister Qingxia, nice to see you again!" Xia Tian greeted her.

Brigitte Lin withdrew her gaze from the window and put down the coffee she had been drinking. "Yes, it's been 6 years!"

Xia Tian sat down, chatted with her for a few words, and then asked her why she came.

Brigitte Lin looked at Xia Tian with a scrutinizing expression: "Do you still remember Li Yun?"

"...I wrote her a letter before I came here, but it was rather hasty. I don't know if she has received it yet."

"Then why didn't you call?"

"She travels all over the world and her phone number is not fixed. We always keep in touch by writing letters."

"No! Are you still in contact?" Brigitte Lin looked surprised.

Xia Tian was also stunned: We have been in contact? She didn't tell you! Didn't I let it slip? !

Brigitte Lin: Okay, okay, let’s play it this way, huh?

Soon, Brigitte Lin said goodbye.

Back home in Hong Kong, she hesitated again and again, picking up and putting down the phone!

She also came to Hong Kong from the island two days ago and accidentally saw the reports, especially the reports about Xia Tian - only then did she know that the boy from the mainland had actually come to Hong Kong!

After reading the reports these days, she was anxious and angry!
"But he said he's leaving in the next two days. If I don't tell Lijun now, I'll have no chance..."

After hesitating for a long time, she finally picked up the phone.

It took several phone calls to find out where my friend was.

"Lijun, I have something to tell you... Don't get excited."
