1982 Started from Hong Kong

Chapter 146 Trailer (Part )
After the Hong Kong dollar crisis was resolved, an article was published on page 6 of Hong Kong's "Sing Tao Daily".

The content of the article is not important, but the title is very interesting.

"The monkeys on both sides of the river are crying non-stop, and the light boat has already passed through thousands of mountains."

The way intellectuals curse in the streets is indeed sophisticated.

"Do you think you sounded like the monkey you saw in the newspaper when you were on the phone that day?"

Zhai Yuan began to dig up old accounts.

If Peng Jiayan had been willing to lend him two million at that time, his assets would have increased further now.

"You are the ape!"

Peng Jiayan was furious and punched Zhai Yuan on the arm. "Tell me the truth, did you receive any inside information in advance?"

Zhai Yuan rolled his eyes: "Your Hengtaihang is considered a grain and oil tycoon, even if your father doesn't have inside information, how could I have it?"

"Then why can you predict that the Hong Kong dollar will continue to rise?"

"I already answered this question when I borrowed the money. I don't believe the foreigners are willing to give up Hong Kong."

After Zhai Yuan finished speaking, he angrily said to her, "But how did you answer me? Saying that I'm a big gambler? Damn it, the things I hate most in my life are gambling and drugs. This conclusion is the result of my meticulous analysis!"

Peng Jiayan selectively ignored his swear words.

She asked suspiciously, "Is it that simple?"

"You guys are making things too complicated."

Zhai Yuan answered as if it was a matter of course.

"Shit luck!"

Peng Jiayan muttered to herself, and then couldn't help but ask curiously, "Did you buy it? Did you make money? How much did you make?"

"I only made a few hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars. There's nothing I can do. My money has just been invested in companies like 91 Entertainment and Secret Garden. I really can't afford to invest more in speculation."

Zhai Yuan sighed with grievance, looking at her resentfully: "It's a pity that you refused to lend me money at that time. You didn't trust me. You rich people always look down on us poor people and think it's impossible for us to become rich..."

After a few black pot lids were thrown, the rich girl's face turned pale and blue, and she began to doubt herself.

I was obviously not as unlucky as he said. I clearly wanted to save him at that time. Who knew that the Hong Kong dollar would really appreciate in the end!
Pang Ka Yan is so withdrawn that she doesn't want to talk.

"Oh! He even said he wanted to break up with me. I thought we were really friends, but it turns out it was just wishful thinking."

Zhai Yuan sighed again, his smile containing seven parts self-mockery and three parts bitterness.

"You're almost there!"

Peng Jiayan pursed her lips and stared at him with a depressed look on her face.

Zhai Yuan feigned disbelief and cried out like a woman, "Oh~ You're actually still mean to me?"

Peng Jiayan felt her fist harden.

"Boss, what do you think of the effect of this cut?"

Just as the two were arguing, the voice of Wu Yusen, who was sitting in front of the screen, rang out.

According to Zhai Yuan's request, he had already done some simple splicing of the films.

"Forget it, just reflect on it first."

Zhai Yuan said something to Peng Jiayan, then jumped on a small stool to Wu Yusen's side and said, "Play it first and let me see it."

Pang Chia-yen mouthed a few silent words towards Zhai Yuan's back, waved her fist in protest, and finally, with a frustrated sigh and puffed cheeks, she approached the screen to watch the rough cut of the trailer. The screen lit up.

Although there is no background music, Zhai Yuan has already imagined:
Thump thump thump~thump thump thump thump~thump thump thump~thump thump thump, thump thump!
The powerful and classic soundtrack "Mark's the Me".

The first scene that catches your eye is the counterfeit money machine running, with US dollars covering the entire screen.

Di Long, wearing a windbreaker, passed a stack of US dollars between his hands.

Then, Wan Ziliang, wearing sunglasses, a slicked-back hair, and a tweed suit, lit a cigarette with a US dollar bill in a arrogant manner.

To be honest, Wan Ziliang's acting skills are indeed not inferior to Chow Yun-fat's. He still used the same acting method in "The Gangster Tycoon", but under the request of Zhai Yuan and the training of Wu Yusen, he interpreted Xiao Ma Ge's high-profile style quite well.

"These US dollar props are very realistic. Which prop maker did you hire?"

Peng Jiayan's voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Wu Yusen didn't even think about it and said with a smile, "What prop master? This money was sponsored by the boss. He withdrew three million US dollars from the bank at once. I've never filmed a scene of this magnitude before..."

Zhai Yuan's face changed drastically, he let out a sigh as if he was reining in his horse, and kicked his stool hard.

In Wu Yusen's puzzled eyes.

He forced a smile and said, "Don't talk, just watch the show."

But it was Wu Yusen's simple words that made Peng Jiayan react quickly. Her expression gradually changed from confusion to understanding and then anger.

Is this what you mean by "I only made a few hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars"? And you played me down and made me feel guilty for so long?
The sound of Peng Jiayan grinding her teeth could be heard.

Zhai Yuan tried to remain calm, sitting upright and staring at the picture on the screen, his neck so stiff that he dared not move at all.

The scene on the screen continues.

After Di Long and Wan Ziliang appeared one after another.

The third lead actor, Zhang Guorong, was wearing a police uniform and marching in step with a group of policemen on the playground. Finally, he came to the front of the crowd and saluted the camera.

The scenes with US dollars and the police were all captured just now when I was driving a pickup truck to exchange currency.

Because Zhai Yuan exchanged currency at the Kwun Tong Divisional Police Station and was already very familiar with the police officers there, he easily borrowed their training ground and a group of extras.

In addition to the daily salary of 200 yuan for each extra, the officer in charge of this matter also had a request, which was to put a thank you subtitle "Thanks to Kwun Tong District Police Station" at the end of the film.

Michiko Nishixie plays Song Zijie's girlfriend Zhong Rou. When she first appears on the screen, she is playing the violin.

The original candidate for this role was Taiwanese actress Zhu Baoyi, who had delicate features and a sweet look. After being replaced by Nishixie Michiko, Zhai Yuan always felt that there was a sense of heroism in her.

However, Wu Yusen and others thought there was no problem at the time, so he could only blame it on his own stereotype.

Fortunately, the heroine is just a vase decoration in this film, which is not a big deal.

When Zhai Yuan finally remembered that the original actor for the villain role of Tan Cheng was named Li Zixiong.

Unfortunately, no one had heard of this name after he asked around, so he finally changed it to Liang Xiaolong, an artist from his own company.

This is the second time Liang Xiaolong has played a villain role since "While You Were Sleeping".

Compared with the two tall guys Di Long and Wan Ziliang, Liang Xiaolong's height of 1.68 meters is a little short, but under the training of Wu Yusen, his acting skills of both positive and negative sides are surprisingly good. Especially when his villain identity is revealed, he faintly has some of the flavor of Fire Cloud Evil God.

When Liang Xiaolong's version of Tan Cheng appeared on the screen, it was followed by a quick cut.

Famous scenes of the three male protagonists firing guns were inserted separately.

Xiao Ma Ge's flamboyance, Di Long's sadness and Zhang Guorong's righteousness.
