Chapter 104 February 29th

Li Xuan would not be stupid enough to go to Ximending to watch movies alone at night. That place is not a good place. Ximending is in Wanhua District, Taipei, and there is another name that Li Xuan is very familiar to him in Wanhua District - Mengjia. There are many gangs there, so it is better to be less involved.

After visiting Liu Chuwei, Li Xuan hurried back to Hong Kong alone. "Black Hero" is about to start filming, and Li Xuan is really unable to do anything.

1980 was a leap year. On February 29, the last day of February, "The Junior Brother", which had been released for more than 20 days, finally exceeded 10 million box office as scheduled. The entire Hong Kong film industry suddenly became excited, and Hong Kong films truly entered the era of tens of millions of box offices.

Jiahe’s boss Zou Wenhuai even brought out a celebration banquet that had been prepared early, and distributed to Hong Kong. Even Li Xuan received a copy of it, inviting him to have a shark fin seafood banquet together on March 5.

Fulinmen Restaurant is one of the "rich restaurants" in Hong Kong. It is worth a meal. Now Zou Wenhuai is holding a big banquet there, and it seems that he is very happy and he is willing to spend a lot of money.

Unlike Jiahe's lanterns and decorative colors, Shaw Brothers is much more low-key and depressed.

It was also on February 29 that Shaw Brothers, which was released for 15 days, was fully offline, with a total box office of 4.03 million. Although this result looks good, compared to the 10 million that Jiahe just obtained, it is a complete defeat. And don’t forget that "The Junior Brother" is still being released now.

Li Xuan was very curious about what kind of anger Shao Yifu was so angry.

At this time, Shao Yifu, as Li Xuan expected, was really angry, not only because of the box office defeat of "Modern Grove", but also because Lei Juekun made many small moves behind his back.

"This Lei Juekun is trying to cause trouble for me with his mind." Shao Yifu leaned against the office chair, closed his eyes and said hatefully.

Fang Yihua, who was sitting upright opposite, nodded helplessly and responded: "Fortunately Xingxiu and Zhang Lei signed a single-piece contract, otherwise we would have been killed by this person named Lei this time."

"Defend it all, be sure to prevent him from stealing people in the movie circle." Shao Yifu smiled bitterly and continued, "I didn't expect him to run to us to recruit people on the wireless. By the way, what movie he wants to make?"

"What's the name "Chicken in the Cage". I heard Xingxiu talk about the general plot. It's very ordinary. I don't like this movie anyway." Fang Yihua shook his head and said casually.

Shao Yifu nodded slightly. Although Fang Yihua's focus was on TV at this time, she had been a senior executive of Shaw Brothers for more than ten years, so she still had this vision.

"By the way, how are Zhenqiang's new films ready?" After talking about the movie, Shao Yifu's eyes returned to the TV station where he had just taken full control.

On February 6th before the Spring Festival, Lishi carefully prepared the annual drama "Six Tribulations of Life" was launched, and the ratings were so bad that the TVB, which was released in the New Year, did not lose its armor.

Fang Yi did not have a good life in the Spring Festival this year, just to deal with this crisis. This is the first ratings battle after Shao Yifu took full control, and he only wins but not loses.

"The filming has started and will be scheduled to start playing next month on the 10th. This time, with Yazhi and Afa, I can't lose." Fang Yihua replied confidently.

"I can't lose..." Shao Yifu gently patted the back of the chair with his right hand and said slowly: "I can't lose, but I still have to keep a few moves in everything. Yihua, don't do too much to Tianlin."

"Forehead……"

Fang Yihua's face suddenly changed, and then he recovered and smiled and said, "I'm wrong with this. I was so busy with the TV station some time ago that I was so impatient that I forgot to invite Tianlin to participate in the Chunming in time. Isn't this? Later, I remembered it and I made up for it immediately."

"Okay, since you know you're wrong, just go out and work hard." Shao Yifu nodded and said casually.

"Well, then I'll go out first." Fang Yihua responded simply and walked out of Shao Yifu's office with a smile on his face.

"Bang."

Looking at the office door that was slowly closed, Shao Yifu shook his head in slightest.

Zou Wenhuai is happy, Shao Yifu is sad, while Li Xuan is shooting a movie, and his "Black Man" has finally started filming.

Now all the crew gathered under an overpass outside Jiulong Axe Mountain Park to shoot a scene where the protagonist jumped into the car. Of course, the protagonist jumped from the ground to the car.

The gap between the left and right bridge decks of the overpass became an excellent tool for building a wire. Several dragon and tiger martial artists specially invited by Li Xuan from the Hong family team have also firmly grasped the wire rope. The other end of the wire was tied to Yuanbiao.

In fact, from the feeling in my heart, Li Xuan felt that Yuandian was not suitable for this role. This guy is still too young now, and he will be about the same in five years. Unfortunately, good actors are hard to find. As a last resort, Li Xuan had to ask the makeup artist to dress Yuandian as old as possible, and barely qualified.

"Abbot, are you ready?" Li Xuan shouted at Yuandai who was standing under the overpass at the top of his voice.

"Okay!" Yuanbiao, who was dressed like Green Hornet, gestured a "V" gesture and continued to reply: "You can start anytime."

Li Xuan nodded and looked at the dragon and tiger martial artists on the other side.

"Curry, where are you?"

“OK!”

"Okay, everyone is buried in their own seats and are ready to start filming. We will try to get it done in one go." Li Xuan shouted to the audience with a loudspeaker, then sat down, stared at the monitor and shouted: "action!"

“Scene 11 filmed.”

"Bang!"

As soon as the sound of the stadium board fell, Yuan Biao ran towards a car driving towards the front.

Each person and the car were getting closer and closer. When the distance between the two was less than two meters, everyone in the audience heard Cheng Xiaodong, the action director of the movie, shouting: "Jump!"

I saw Yuan Biao crossing the air and jumping to the front of the car. Then I covered the left foot with a little bit in front of the car, and then bounced another time, and then my right foot...

Then he stepped on the air with his right foot, and Yuan Biao was hung in the air and swung around.

"Crack!" Li Xuan wiped his face and stood up, shouting, "Curry, next time Wiabe is so anxious."

"I'm sorry, Brother Xuan." Curry quickly waved her hand to apologize.

"It's okay, just keep working hard." Li Xuan shook his hand and comforted him, got up and walked towards Yuanbiao.

Li Xuan didn't expect this drama to be easily filmed. The technology of hanging wires in Hong Kong is still very immature. Even Cheng Xiaodong, a person who later played the technology in the future, now has only a little understanding of wires.

"Brother Xuan." Yuan Dart, who was already standing on the ground, called out.

"Um."

Li Xuan nodded casually, glanced at Yuan Dart's legs, and then looked at the car that was reversing in the distance.

"What's wrong with Brother Xuan?" Yuan Biao asked strangely.

"It feels a little wrong." Li Xuan touched his nose: "It sounds good to jump, but it just looks like it is wrong."

"I feel wrong?" Cheng Xiaodong suddenly interrupted. He was the action design of this movie. There was some action trouble, of course he had to participate.

"Well..." Li Xuan nodded again, suddenly looked at Cheng Xiaodong next to him and asked, "Xiaodong, you often shoot martial arts movies. At that time, when you encountered similar scenes, how would you design the action?"

"Martial arts film?" Cheng Xiaodong was stunned for a moment, then reacted and thought, "Abbot's jump just now was very good, but the jump behind it is not good. You can't step forward too much, it's best..."

Cheng Xiaodong sat in the open space next to him for a few moves, and then said: "It is best to use the strength of your feet to bounce and fly forward in the air. Of course, the strength of this foot is not so powerful, you need to use Wiya."

After hearing this, Li Xuan's eyes lit up. Cheng Xiaodong is worthy of being a gold medal martial arts finger, and his design action is much better than ordinary martial arts fingers. Since he had a good idea, Li Xuan immediately raised the loudspeaker and shouted: "Everyone prepare, let's do it again!" (To be continued.
