1982 Started from Hong Kong

Chapter 311 Dragon Boat Festival
When talking about the country of Japan, one can't help but think of the two industries they almost monopolize.

One for adults is called Adult Video.

Another one targeting teenagers is called anime.

Of course, the audiences of the two can also be interchanged.

Liu Wei Qiang is now reading a comic book while staring at the Adult Video shooting scene.

As a veteran comics fan.

The films Liu Wei Qiang watched in Hong Kong were such as "Dragon Tiger Gate", "Stinking Hong Kong" and "The Birthday Star".

Toyo is coming.

I held a copy of Weekly Shonen Jump magazine in my hand. Even though I couldn't understand the text dialogues, I still enjoyed reading it just by looking at the storyboards.

"This Dragon Ball is very well drawn. Every move has a bit of Chen Shilong movie style."

In the past, when Japanese comics involved fighting scenes, the left side would often shout "Tianma Meteor Fist" and the right side would shout "Lushan Rising Dragon Ba", and the bystanders would use long narration to explain how powerful these two moves were, and then the scene would change to decide the winner.

However, "Dragon Ball" imitated Hong Kong action movies and pioneered a new style of fighting storyboards, which won countless fans as soon as it was released.

The manga has beaten other contemporary works such as "Fist of the North Star", "Takeshi", and "City Hunter" in Japan, and has firmly taken the top spot.

At this time, the plot is being serialized to the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament, where Sun Wukong is fighting against the second-generation demon Piccolo.

Goukong knocked down Piccolo and opened champagne at halftime, but was pierced through the chest by a mouth cannon from the opponent.

The scene stopped abruptly.

Liu Weiqiang cursed and closed the magazine: "Fuck that! It broke again at the most critical moment!"

At this time, Wang Jin pushed the door open and walked in, followed by the lighting technician and the script supervisor.

Wang Jin scratched his thigh and said hello to Liu Weiqiang: "Stop playing around, Aqiang. How are the actors preparing? Get into position and start filming."

Liu Weiqiang looked up at Wang Jin's movements and said with a smile, "Brother Jin, you got hit?"

"Damn it! There was definitely something wrong with that woman last night. Her thighs were all red this morning after we had sex."

Wang Jin urged angrily, "Hurry up and finish the last two scenes. I have to go to the hospital for a checkup. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain to your sister-in-law when I return to Hong Kong."

Liu Wei Qiang smiled maliciously and joked with Wang Jin.

Finally, he pointed to the inner room and said, "Dongyang girl is cultivating her relationship with Chao brother in there, she should be out soon."

"How long do we have to wait?" Wang Jin grumbled in dissatisfaction, "If it's any later, I'm afraid the hospital will close!"

The voice just fell.

The door to the inner room opened.

Liang Zhichao walked out with Tokyo Hot's newly signed leading actress Akimoto Tomomi.

After changing into a neat suit and wearing a pair of plain glasses, Brother Chao looks gentle and refined today.

Liang Zhichao glanced at Wang Jin and walked up slowly.

Fatty Wang immediately put away his impatience and smiled: "Brother Chao."

Liang Zhichao ignored him and reached out to pull open his shorts. Before Wang Jin could react, Liang Zhichao leaned over and took a look inside.

Snap! Chao let go of his hand, and the belt bounced back onto the fat man's belly.

"It's a minor problem. No need to rush to the hospital. Just go home and wash with some salt water."

Liang Zhichao finished his speech calmly, and then sneered at Wang Jin: "You are making a fuss about nothing. You have never seen the world! OK, all units, pay attention and prepare to start work!"

Wang Jin's face turned red and white.

Liu Wei Qiang was holding his stomach and trying to hold back his laughter.

"Laugh at your mother, get to work!"

The filming of the Sino-Japanese co-production has started and the crew members are in place.

Today is the last two scenes of this movie.

Liang Zhichao volunteered to play the male lead Wang Shen, who had a small role. In his words, his photo would be printed on the cover of the CD in the future, making him a star after all, and it would be more convincing when he went out on the street to pick up Japanese prostitutes.

The curtains are drawn and the ceiling lights are turned on to create an evening ambiance.

As the director said "Action", the camera turned to the three actors.

Liang Zhichao's part ended quickly.

He walked to the camera with his shoulders folded.

The Japanese director held up the camera, and under Wang Jin's guidance, he sometimes moved closer and sometimes moved farther away...

“So I refused to play the role.”

Liang Zhichao patted Liu Weiqiang's shoulder, his eyes flashing with wisdom: "My personal doctor told me that if a man holds back his temper, it will cause great harm to his body!"

Enjoy the live shooting and chat at the same time.

It didn't take long.

Secretary Helen stood at the door, holding a satellite phone in her hand and calling Liang Zhichao: "Mr. Chao, this is a call from Hong Kong. Mr. Zhai is calling you..."

…………

Hong Kong, 91 Entertainment.

Zhai Yuan leaned back in his chair with his legs crossed and said to Shi Nansheng, "Before the movie is released, Xu Anhua and Wang Jiawei's new company must completely cut ties with us. I will let Liang Zhichao set up a shell company in Japan with the money they used to start their own company and contact them as an investor."

Shi Nansheng perfunctorily gave a thumbs up, shook his head and smiled, "Boss, you are very thoughtful. I admire you."

"What do you think would be a better name for the film company?"

"It's An-Ya and Jia-Wei Film Company."

"Nothing new at all." Zhai Yuan looked at her with disdain, thought for a moment and asked with a smile: "How about calling one Spark and one Prairie Blasting?"

Sparks spread across the prairie?

Shi Nansheng thought for a moment and quickly understood what the names of the two film companies meant.

I suddenly wanted to take back the words I had just said about praising my boss for his meticulousness.

"Mr. Zhai, do you know how few bus routes there are in Baodao?"

"Which way?"

"Route 8."

Zhai Yuan pondered for two seconds.

Wow! He plays this metaphor better than me.

"Then do you know why "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" became a banned book in Taiwan?"

"Sister Nan, please elaborate."

"Because there is a character named Wang Yuyan in the book. She saw two people fighting and said the line 'This is the famous move of the Jiang family in Jiangnan, the passing clouds and mist'."

Zhai Yuan was overjoyed and clapped his hands, "Great! Come on! One more, one more!"

Shi Nansheng smiled helplessly: "Why do you like to hear this?"

Zhai Yuan urged: "Hurry up, hurry up, one more!"

"Let me think...Ah! There was a writer named Chen Yingzhen, who was arrested by the police because a copy of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer was found in his home. The interrogator asked him, 'Why do you have a book by Mark Twain at home?' Chen Yingzhen was confused and didn't understand what he meant. The interrogator yelled, 'Mark Twain and Marx both have the last name Mark, which means they are brothers. The fact that you read his book shows that you have leftist ideas. Why don't you confess quickly!'"

Shi Nansheng told several true stories about Taiwan in succession.

Because of the French writer Zola's last name, all his books were listed as banned publications.

The works of German sociologist Max Weber were seized across the country because his full name was Max Weber...

Zhai Yuan found this funny and suddenly felt that Soviet jokes were no different.

"So, Mr. Zhai, do you understand what I mean?" "I understand~ I completely understand~"

Zhai Yuan rubbed his cheeks which were sore from laughing.

Shi Nansheng's meaning couldn't be more obvious.

The martial law period in Taiwan has not yet ended. If they want to set up a Spark Film Company or a Liaoyuan Film Company, the Freedom Headquarters will not have to intervene. The Police Headquarters will have to arrest Anhua Hui and Wang Jiawei and torture them first.

After hearing the joke.

Zhai Yuan said with a sense of wicked humor: "Well... then let's choose a company called Daiwa Films, and the other one is up to you."

Shi Nansheng really didn't understand this Internet-era joke this time, and asked curiously, "Daiwa?"

Zhai Yuan laughed and said, "It's just like a stupid frog sitting in a well and looking at the sky!"

Shi Nansheng held his forehead and smiled bitterly, "How childish! This shouldn't be the case at the age of 21."

The name of the film company has been chosen.

Zhai Yuan couldn't wait to see the creators explain this allusion at the Golden Horse Awards ceremony and to see what the members' expressions would be like in the audience.

But we still have to take it step by step.

He dialed Dongyang's number and the person who answered the phone was Liang Zhichao's female secretary. Zhai Yuan asked her to hand the phone to Liang Zhichao.

"Hey, brother Chao, it doesn't matter if you don't understand what I'm saying next. I'll tell you first and then you can ask Xixie Yannan to do this. Quickly set up a shell company and find a random Japanese guy with a new face to invest in two Hong Kong film companies. Remember to keep it secret..."

When hanging up the phone, Zhai Yuan heard Wang Jin's voice coming from the other side of the receiver.

"Brother Chao, this scene is done. Next we'll shoot the scene where you come back from buying wine, get drunk at the dinner table, and they continue to fight around you..."

Zhai Yuan was silent for a moment and then sighed sincerely: Great job, Brother Chao.

After cutting off Anhua Hui and Carl Wong.

Shi Nansheng went out to do work.

Zhai Yuan sat in the chair, thinking about the Taiwan jokes just now, and still found them funny.

Then he thought again: "We need to get a script for Wang Jiawei and have Carlos Chan send someone to watch over the set, otherwise he will waste three years shooting a movie."

Although the plot of the movie "King of Sunglasses" is difficult to understand, the lines, artistic conception and pictures are indeed very compelling.

If I have to choose one, Zhai Yuan’s favorite is "The Grandmaster".

'The word Kung Fu has two characters, one horizontal and one vertical, the wrong one is wrong.'

So good at pretending!

However, filming "The Grandmaster" was a huge project. It was once considered to be the film that took Wang Jiawei the longest time to shoot, and that was in later times when the film industry was well developed. Now, you can probably forget about it, otherwise you would have to travel all the way to the northeast just to shoot a snow scene.

Think about it.

I still think "Days of Being Wild" is more suitable.

Ready-made Zhang Guorong.

If there are no substitutes for other actors, then we will use Andy Lau, Tony Leung Chiu-wai and Zhang Xueyou from the original film.

If they are unwilling to come, Jiuyi Entertainment also has people who know a little bit about martial arts.

Oh, no, it’s Daiwa Film Company that invited them now, so it shouldn’t be difficult. At most, we can ask the Japanese investors to pay them more.

"There is also Zhang Manyu."

Zhai Yuan narrowed his eyes and thought, Liu Jialin was not very interested, but Manshen should be signed into the company.

Provocative question: Among Gong Huang, Man Shen, and Yang Ziqiong, who can represent the top actress in Chinese-language films?

I'm afraid when it comes to work resume, there is only one towering figure: Manshen.

By comparison.

The casting for Ann Hui's "A Woman at 40" was easier, as I discussed it with her in advance when we were discussing the script.

Luo Jiaying in the original film was ready-made.

The only difference is that the female lead, Josephine Siao, was replaced by Anita Mui.

At this time, Brother Jiaying is pursuing Sister Wang who has just divorced. If these two can get married earlier, Jiuyi Entertainment will have another foreign aid like Sister Wang with a strong background.

The office door was pushed open a crack.

Zhou Huimin peeked through the crack in the door, and seeing that there was no one inside, she slipped in with a rustic blue cloth bag in her hand.

Zhai Yuan waved her to sit in his arms, and asked with his forehead against hers, "Didn't you study at home today?"

It is time for the two little girls, Zhou Haimei and Zhou Huimin, to take the college entrance examination.

Zhai Yuan gave Zhou Huimin a long vacation to review her lessons at home.

Zhou Huimin hugged Zhai Yuan's neck and rubbed his ears for a while, then put the blue cloth bag on the table and said with a smile: "Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. I made some rice dumplings and sent them to you. Isn't that thoughtful?"

Zhai Yuan pulled off the leaves of the rice dumpling and asked, "Sweet or salty?"

Zhou Huimin was startled: "Cantonese salted pork dumplings."

Zhai Yuan snorted in disdain: "Take it away, take it away. Can you eat the rice dumplings without red dates dipped in sugar?"

Zhou Huimin's excitement to take credit for the work suddenly faded, and she said hesitantly, "But I have been wrapping it for a long time."

Zhai Yuan was amused by her little expression and scratched her nose: "Okay, then I'll give it a try reluctantly."

Zhou Huimin smiled again and quickly and diligently peeled off the rice dumpling leaves and handed it to his mouth.

As soon as Zhai Yuan, who was enjoying the emperor's treatment, took a bite, she couldn't help asking, "How does it taste?"

Zhai Yuan smacked his lips: "Very sweet."

"Salty pork dumplings."

"You smile so sweetly!"

Just a few words made Zhou Huimin smile happily.

Moon Lee came in.

"Brother Yuan, the salty tofu pudding you eat in Yanjing has a unique taste, so you must not be used to the salty meat dumplings, so I specially brought you candied date dumplings, which I bought from several shops..."

When Moon Lee entered the room, she saw Chow Hui Min sitting on Zhai Yuan's lap. Her smile froze and her voice gradually became lower.

The two girls looked at each other, and Zhou Huimin hurriedly jumped off Zhai Yuan, standing aside with a slightly red cheek.

Zhai Yuan silently chewed the half piece of rice dumpling in his mouth, his mind racing.

It’s different from Zhou Haimei’s situation.

Both Zhou Huimin and Li Moonfeng roughly knew that the other had an affair with Zhai Yuan, but they both tacitly agreed not to mention it. This was the first time they had encountered such a situation.

Well, whether we can break this awkward situation and achieve peaceful coexistence in the company in the future depends on what happens next!

Zhai Yuan swallowed the rice dumpling, took a deep breath and prepared to speak.

next second.

A carefree voice rang out from outside: "Idol, today is the Dragon Boat Festival. My boss said that he hasn't seen you for a long time, so he asked me to invite you to my house tonight."

Ye Yuqing pushed the door open and walked in. She noticed the subtle atmosphere in the room and raised her eyebrows.

Then she came up to Zhai Yuan with a smile, sat on his thighs in front of the other two girls, licked the rice grains from the corners of Zhai Yuan's mouth with her tongue, and said in a greasy voice: "Why are you so careless when eating~"

Seeing this unscrupulous scene, Zhou Huimin and Li Moonfeng frowned at the same time.

Ye Yuqing turned around and looked at them provocatively.

In the air, there seemed to be invisible soldiers crisscrossing.

Zhai Yuan pulled the corner of his mouth and coughed to break the silence: "It's rare that so many people are here today, why don't I tell you a joke about Taiwan?"
