Hong Kong's new giants

Chapter 125 [Conquering Nie Xiaoqian]

"DreamWorks' Second Film - A Chinese Ghost Story Coming Soon"

"Leslie Cheung!A man stuck in time, now he's changed! "

"The Most Immortal Female Ghost—Wang Zuxian, here she comes! "

Produced by DreamWorks, it must be a boutique. "

Since mid-November, DreamWorks Films has spent huge sums of money to promote "A Chinese Ghost Story", bought a large number of TV commercials and newspaper advertisements, and published consecutively in its magazines to give enough attention.

This kind of treatment is not even available in "The True Colors of Heroes". In fact, Lin Zuhui knows that the box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is not high, probably more than 1500 million; but this movie is starring Wang Zuxian. In order to make his girlfriend happy, he naturally spent a lot of money.

With a large number of media resources, "A Chinese Ghost Story" ushered in a midnight trial screening on November 11 (Friday).

The midnight movie period is generally between 22:00-24:00, and the movie theater midnight movie is basically the premiere midnight movie; the post-viewing evaluation of the midnight movie is a "hard indicator" of Xiangjiang movies, people don't have to fill up the seats, But it must be well received by the audience present.

Therefore, as directors and leading actors of movies, they generally choose to participate in it and feel the evaluation of the market in the first place.Because after the midnight screening, the screening is not immediately released, and there is still a buffer period in the middle, which can be re-edited by the director to make adjustments.

Before the midnight show of "A Chinese Ghost Story", Lin Zuhui hosted a dinner for Xu Ke, Chen Xiaodong, Leslie Cheung, Wang Zuxian and other creative teams, and also invited Pan Dickson to come.

Because the midnight show of "A Chinese Ghost Story" was chosen to be screened in the leading theater of Shaw Brothers - the Grand Theater, and Dickson Poon was the host. In addition, the two of them have been playing very well recently, and they have cooperated in many aspects, so the appearance is not enough. Surprised.

During the banquet, Wang Zuxian turned into Lin Zuhui's girlfriend, and Pan Disheng was dumbfounded. Who is this friend he made?
Lin Zuhui also started to take her seriously, this kind of woman is hard to find.

In this play, Wang Zuxian used doubles in many lingering scenes.

Speaking of which, it was Xu Ke who reminded Lin Zuhui, saying that Wang Zuxian had a lot of kissing scenes in this film, and Lin Zuhui said to use a double at that time.

Xu Ke also had no choice, after all, Lin Zuhui was the big sponsor.

As for whether it is classic or not, Lin Zuhui can't care too much!
On the second floor of the Shaw Theater, Lin Zuhui and his party sat in the auditorium, waiting to watch the movie and survey the public sentiment.

After a while, the sugarcane biting gang entered the theater one after another, instantly making the filming team of "A Chinese Ghost Story" a little nervous.

The so-called "cane biting gang" is: around 11:[-] p.m., crowds of people crowded in front of the theater where the midnight show was being shown, and itinerant hawkers yelled and sold various snacks such as sugar cane, fried chestnuts, marinated beef offal, roasted corn, and popcorn (now There are many theaters that do not have a canteen), which is very lively.The vast majority of the audience in the midnight show are young people, men and women, calling for friends, chewing sugar cane while applauding or cursing after entering the arena, and even throwing sugar cane on the screen when they are dissatisfied, the audience in the midnight show got a big surprise. The nickname of "Cane Bite Gang".

Xu Ke joked: "After Lin Sheng and Pan Sheng finished watching the movie, don't stay there. If you encounter troubles caused by the sugarcane biting gang, we will cover you and leave first!"

The reason why Xu Ke teased him like this was undoubtedly because he said that the two of them were rich and couldn't stand the atmosphere at that time.

Lin Zuhui also said with a smile: "Brother Pan, don't worry, my bodyguards will take care of you first, brother, I will at least know how to do it."

Dickson Poon suddenly felt a little 'believed', DreamWorks didn't really make a bad movie, did it?Speaking of which, his girlfriend Michelle Yeoh's "The Royal Senior Sister" also played at midnight in the past few days. The two dramas collided. La.

"I'm not the creative team of "A Chinese Ghost Story", nor the boss. What are they asking me for? But you, brother, you have to protect your siblings when the time comes, right?"

When Wang Zuxian heard that the topic was about her, she didn't speak, but held Lin Zuhui's arm tightly.

She is a little nervous now, for many reasons: first, she is worried about the box office of this drama, because Lin Zuhui once said that this drama can make her a first-line female star in Hong Kong; second, she is worried that Lin Zuhui will watch it. Those hug scenes are jealous, if that's the case, why don't I stop making movies and become a rich girl?
Soon she threw away her second thought, she vaguely knew that Lin Zuhui's private life was not that simple, that's why she worked hard to film, and she couldn't rely entirely on this man.

Lin Zuhui patted the back of Wang Zuxian's hand, and said deliberately: "That's not necessarily true, those people are willing to attack Zu Xian when they see him, I think I'd better keep myself!"

As soon as the words fell, Lin Zuhui felt his arm was bitten by an ant!
"Haha, brother is smart!"

When the screening started, hundreds of viewers were quickly captivated and received rave reviews.

"The female ghost played by Wang Zuxian is too fairy-like, I hope I can meet such a female ghost!"

"The scholar played by my brother is so handsome, if only such a scholar wishes for me."

"Damn, why is this dryad grandma played by a man, such a scary old goblin, I hope I don't dream about him at night!"

The costumes, scenes, etc. of this movie are absolutely excellent. The reason why the box office in the previous life was not high is because the subject matter is niche and there are no big cast members.But if it can win a box office of 1700 million, it can at least be called a profitable film.

If the box office is not very good, the impact on Leslie Cheung and Wang Zuxian is long-term and profound; many people always think of Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian when they are mentioned.

In her previous life, Wang Zuxian became popular all over the country with the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story", and her popularity remained high even in Japan and South Korea.In South Korea, Wang Zuxian's net worth even set a record in South Korea, and was selected as the most popular female star.Like Wang Zuxian in Japan, she has been on the throne of the most popular foreign female star many times. She is also known as "Asia's No. [-] Beautiful Leg" and has become the darling of major advertisers. Wang Zuxian also took this opportunity to release a Japanese album.

After watching the movie, there was no riot as imagined, and the attention was quiet on the romantic love story of Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian, and was also immersed in this story of subjugating demons and eliminating demons.

"Brother Hui, are we successful?"

"Of course, don't worry, there is no problem with a box office of more than 1500 million. Our DreamWorks production must be a high-quality product."

Watching the movie, when Lin Zuhui took Wang Zuxian to say goodbye to everyone, Leslie Cheung called to stop Lin Zuhui.

"Boss Lin, wait a minute!"

Lin Zuhui turned his head and saw Leslie Cheung trotting up.

Although Leslie Cheung did not sign any prostitution contract with DreamWorks, it is not wrong to say that his achievements in movies were made by DreamWorks; before there was "The True Colors of Heroes", which broke Xiangjiang's box office record, and now there is "A Chinese Ghost Story". "Strikes.

Everyone cooperates well, but Lin Zuhui doesn't have much communication with him, Lin Zuhui doesn't have much communication with all the male stars, he doesn't need to make those friends.After all, it takes time to make friends, and what Lin Zuhui lacks is time.

"Leslie, what's the matter with you?"

Although he is not a friend, but it is his money-making tool, and the IT fashion retail store also plans to sponsor him, so he might as well show his favor to him as an endorsement.

"Boss Lin, I want to ask if the theme song of "A Chinese Ghost Story" can be included in the album. I heard that this is the song you wrote for Zu Xian!"

Lin Zuhui immediately looked at Wang Zuxian, and it was definitely not Xu Ke or Chen Xiaodong who dared to reveal his secret.

Sure enough, Wang Zuxian stuck out her tongue and hid behind Lin Zuhui.

Of course she knew that Lin Zuhui didn't want to be in the limelight, but she just couldn't help showing it off to a few people, including Leslie Cheung.

"There is no problem with this, but you have to write that the lyrics and composition of the album are 'anonymous', and you must not disclose this information!" Lin Zuhui emphasized.

"Don't worry, Boss Lin, I'm not a big mouth, I can keep a secret!"

Lin Zuhui nodded. This is true. Leslie Cheung knew the secret of his relationship with Wang Zuxian before, but there was never any news about it.

"it is good!"

After Lin Zuhui finished speaking, he was about to leave.

"Boss Lin, should I talk to Manager Pan about the money?"

"No money, just tell him that! I'll find you to cooperate with me as an endorsement later, just give me a discount!"

"Okay, Boss Lin, you have the final say!"

A song can cost tens of thousands, but many of Leslie Cheung's endorsements are worth more than [-]. He agreed without hesitation, obviously grateful to DreamWorks for making his achievements in movies popular.

Moreover, there will be sequels to the follow-up "True Heroes" and "A Chinese Ghost Story", and everyone will continue to cooperate.

The house that Lin Zuhui gave to Wang Zuxian is also in Baguio Bay. The entire Baguio Bay covers an area of ​​80 square feet. If residential buildings are built according to the standards of large-scale housing estates, at least large-scale housing estates with more than 5000 residential units can be built; There are only 1300 luxury residential communities built in the world. It can be seen that the environment here is still very good, with complete facilities, including two large swimming pools, tennis courts, and basketball courts.

Back home, Lin Zuhui said deliberately unhappy: "Wang Zuxian, you dare to reveal my secret!"

Wang Zuxian immediately begged for mercy and said, "Brother Hui, please forgive me. Besides, I just said that my boyfriend wrote it for me, not you!"

"So, your boyfriend isn't me anymore?"

Wang Zuxian's expression changed suddenly, and she said with some resentment: "My boyfriend is you, but your girlfriend may not be me!"

It happened so suddenly that Lin Zuhui was almost caught off guard.

However, he quickly said: "When I see some gossip news, I just think about it. You don't have much scandal and gossip. Am I jealous?"

Wang Zuxian was speechless and said, "I know how to change the topic when there are rumors and gossips!"

Lin Zuhui didn't want to get too entangled in this matter, so he said: "Well, we don't hold each other accountable! Anyway, it's all gossip news!"

"Hmph, you pass!"

In fact, Wang Zuxian believed that Lin Zuhui's news was true, but she was reluctant to fall out now, so she pretended not to know.

Lin Zuhui took out a bag at this time, and said to Wang Zuxian: "Change into Xiaoqian's clothes and show me!" There was a trace of expectation and pure desire on his face.

Wang Zuxian was dumbfounded, opened the package in disbelief, saw that it was indeed a scene, and said immediately, "Where did you get this costume?"

"I'm the owner of a film company. This costume belongs to our company. Is there any problem if I take it?"

"Ah! But did you take it quietly?"

"Yes, I asked my subordinates to give it to me!"

"what?"

"Don't worry, my subordinates are strict, go and change it! The night is long and I don't want to sleep. Tonight I am Ning Caichen, and I want to clean up you Nie Xiaoqian!"

Wang Zuxian bit her lip lightly, if she didn't love the man opposite her a lot, she really wanted to throw her clothes on Lin Zuhui, die BT!
Wang Zuxian said harshly: "Just wait, it takes time to dress up!" Then she walked into the cloakroom.

Lin Zuhui's heart suddenly felt itchy, and the love between ghosts and ghosts was over, and he could actually put on a show!
However, he also knew that he was a bit 'excessive'. After all, Wang Zuxian was only this year and had a thin skin, so he couldn't let go of that aspect.

But the bottom line is used to break through, the more "honest man" he is, the more he can't handle these women.

After a while, Wang Zuxian came out eloquently, very much like Nie Xiaoqian in the play.

"Brother Hui, when I was filming this scene, director Xu Ke said that my appearance and clothes are very suitable for Nie Xiaoqian, but the movement is not good, so let me go to the Huaxia drama and dance class to learn. I will dance for you, okay? ?”

Wang Zuxian's eyes are full of romantic feelings, and she wants to show the results of her studies in front of Lin Zuhui.

This tune is what I want!

Lin Zuhui has just experienced the fun of the emperor in ancient times, and there are singing and dancing performances, and he can directly get started during the performances.

Seeing Nie Xiaoqian dancing in the room, Lin Zuhui quickly assumed the role of Ning Caichen.

However, this Ning Caichen didn't seem to have much patience. Before Nie Xiaoqian finished dancing, he hugged others by the waist.

"Xiaoqian, it's time for us to consummate the house!"

"Brother Hui, don't tear your clothes, they can still be used next time!"

"I won't tear it, this skirt is easy to do!"

"Zu Xian, your legs are so beautiful!"

One night of spring demeanor, the love between humans and ghosts is not over!

The next day, Lin Zuhui looked at Wang Zuxian contentedly, and then looked at the costumes in the underground, secretly thinking that he was really fucking ridiculous, but the role-playing was really cool and interesting.
