My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 386 "The Suspect" Premiere Begins

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!
December 1987, 12, the eve of Christmas Eve.

Mong Kok.

Wu Xiaozu wore a black mid-length slim-fit coat, stood on the roof of the building opposite the theater with two long legs, with a cigar in his mouth, and the smoke drifted along the cold wind.

The temperature on Hong Kong Island in December is around 13° and 14°, and the humid cold in the south is definitely magic AOE damage. Unlike the north, although it costs money to buy equipment, it only needs simple stacking resistance to deal with it.The temperature in the south is deceiving, and the winter in the south... don't mention it!
Holding on to the iron railing with his hands in black leather gloves, he looked down at the night view of Mongkok.

Next to him, Jiang Ershao, who was tiptoeing secretly, flicked his unruly and freedom-loving hot roll, and asked Liang Jiahui on the other side, "What is he looking at?"

With the cigarette held at 45° on Liang Jiahui's mouth, he said indifferently, "There are crowds of people."

"Huge crowds?"

"Well, didn't you see hundreds of thousands of people watching?"

Liang Jiahui suddenly pointed in the direction of the theater, "No—it was a bit of a commotion, probably another paparazzi fought for a seat. It should be the paparazzi of "Oriental Daily" and the reporter of "Sing Tao Daily"!"

"Where is it?"

Second Young Master Jiang raised his feet vigorously, the toes of his leather shoes turned into ballet shoes, and he stretched his neck vigorously, showing great strength.But still confused along the road, unable to see the distance clearly.

Turning his head suspiciously——

Liang Jiahui stared at Jiang Zhiqiang's one-meter short legs with pity.

"￣□￣"

"Hehe..." Seeing him looking over, Liang Jiahui hastily squeezed out a polite but impolite smile.

Second Young Master Jiang's face turned dark instantly, as if his heart had been stabbed.Sweeping other people's legs, then looking at my own legs, howling in my heart: only other people's legs are called legs, and my own can only be called vehicles!
With a cigar in his hand, Wu Xiaozu glanced at the theater owned by Golden Harvest across the street from Xinbao Theater with a smile, "This group of old foxes are playing with me by jumping gears... It's not fun at all."

Opposite to the Golden Harvest theater, the poster of "The Sequel to the Hong Kong Banner Soldiers" is particularly eye-catching. 1024 Locomotive Film Company's "Suspect" will be officially released on December 12, and today happens to be the premiere of the midnight show.On the other hand, Golden Harvest adjusted the sequel of "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" to Christmas.

The previous "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" was still a 1984 movie, which not only won tens of millions of box office, but also won the Golden Horse Award for Best Director for Mak Dangxiong.

This time, the "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" has made a comeback, carrying the reputation and influence of the previous film, which can be described as menacing.Although on the surface it is directed by Dangjie Mai, everyone knows that this is still Dangxiong Mai's movie.

A few days ago, "Oriental Daily" reported "Golden Horse's new and old directors civil war, new and old, wait and see!" "The gimmick to hype.

At this time and with this theme, no one will doubt Mai Dangxiong's box office appeal!

However, anyone with a discerning eye in the circle can see that "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers 2 Divide into Two Ways" and "Suspect" are not the same type of film at all, and the impact on the box office is negligible.

You can't expect girls who like to watch "The Suspect" to watch "The Banners of Hong Kong and Province", and vice versa.

"Do you have a tendency to self-abuse? You have to be stopped by others to be reconciled? Now who doesn't know that Wu Xiaozu's "Suspect" is so hot and has a lot of female fans, so the idiot will spend money to play with you!"

Jiang Zhiqiang scolded angrily, "The Lunar New Year holiday is more than two months old, the Christmas holiday is just a good start, and the Spring Festival holiday is more important!"

"I'm afraid they will kill Cheng Yaojin halfway!"

Wu Xiaozu looked down at Jiang Zhiqiang, and blew out a smoke ring, "Do you know why I smoke on the rooftop? Do you really think I'm as lonely as snow?"

"..."

Jiang Zhiqiang's face was as black as an iron pot, and a circle of smoke spread around his scalp. At this moment, he really wanted to hammer off Wu Xiaozu's knee that hit the street.

"You are just a literary film, even if you are famous, it has a limit! My new film will be released the day after tomorrow!"

Liang Jiahui put his proud hands in front of his face like √ like this, showing off his smell, just like Lu Qi in "92 Black Rose vs. Black Rose", "If you can't say it, you will capsize in the gutter——"

"you are right--"

Wu Xiaozu patted Liang Jiahui on the shoulder with a serious expression, "If the boat capsizes in your ditch, it's really not worth it! I'll go and entertain—"

"Indeed..." Jiang Zhiqiang nodded approvingly.

Liang Jiahui looked at the two people who left, feeling a little confused.

and many more……

"Did I scold myself?" Liang Jiahui rolled his eyelids and looked up to the sky.

……

The streets and alleys are full of festive decorations, such as Christmas trees, bells, socks, and elk dolls. All kinds of shiny gift boxes are arranged by the merchants, and the promotion activities are bigger than each other, which makes the Christmas atmosphere of the whole street extremely strong.

The pedestrians on the street are bustling with each other, and the brightly lit city that never sleeps makes everyone look eager to try.

Christmas is a legal holiday on Hong Kong Island, just in time for the weekend to be postponed.Most young couples go to the Yau Tsim Mong area to spend the festival. Compared with Causeway Bay, shopping here is more popular.From time to time, promotional staff dressed in Christmas costumes as Santa Claus appear on the street, adding to the festive atmosphere.

"Hurry up...I bought two tickets for the midnight show two days ago, and got two tickets for the premiere of "Suspect" in a lottery from "Daily Daily"!"

"Really?? You are amazing!"

"Looking at the "Daily Daily", there will be performances at the premiere!"

"I really like the song "If I'm going to die, I must die in your hands", it's so touching! I heard that this song is an adaptation of a poem written by the director. It's a real story! It's a pity... the tickets for the premiere are sold out, It will no longer be sold to the public! But it doesn’t matter, you can buy tickets for tomorrow’s movie! Now you can go to see the performance first!”

At this time, many girls, white-collar workers, and teachers' grandmothers ran towards Xinbao Theater non-stop after shopping to buy movie tickets.

The "Suspect" novel of the same name became popular in "Daily Daily"!

Starting from the song "If I die, I must die in your hands", the novel has truly become a hit at this stage, catching up with Ni Kuang's sales on "Ming Pao".If all goes well, the novel will be compiled and published during the film's release.

This mystery novel, which jumps out of the framework of mystery novels and sublimates emotions, has become an extremely fashionable reading material.It is roughly as common as discussing YSL lipstick numbers among women in schools and offices in the future.

Xinbao Cinema.

The lights on the stage were bright, and hundreds of thousands of onlookers screamed in surprise from time to time.

Zhang Guoying, Anita Mui, Roy Kin, Leung Ga-fai, Wang Zuzhen, Wu Zhenyu, Huang Qiusheng and other stills or their own artists appeared one after another. This year, Leung Ga-fai relied on Jiang Jiahua's love...I always feel a bit soft...I was selected as the cover of "Ming Pao Weekly".

"Azu—"

The big nose brought this year's Miss Hong Kong champion beauty Yang Baoling to the stage, with a proud face,

"Congratulations!" Yuan Bing followed beside him alone, and greeted Wu Xiaozu with a smile.

"Don't take 4000 million for this box office, it will make our lives very difficult!" Sammo Hung was potbellied, and he was joking on the surface, but he couldn't tell the truth from the truth in the actual words.

Gao Lihong, who is tall, sexy and long-legged, is not afraid of the coolness. She stands aside in a short skirt with a hip wrap and black silk, with fur on her shoulders.

While Sammo Hung was speaking, Gao Lihong bit her red lips lightly at Wu Xiaozu with her winking eyes like silk, and made a signal.

The reputation of Gao Lihong in this life is much stronger than that of the previous life. With her tall figure and western-style face, she has a very busy schedule and has already accepted several commercials.

In addition, Wang Xianxian brushes his toothbrush so frequently recently, it seems... tight.She didn't have a chance to recommend herself as a pillow for Director Wu to continue training.

Sammo Hung has been pursuing her recently, but it does not prevent her from listening to Director Wu's suggestions and plans.

As for her and Wang Zuzhen...

What girlfriend legend,
What must be ground inside?
I can play with any kind of sword, gun and stick... (⊙o⊙)...

In short, this pair of plastic sisters is now in a relationship of laughing and not laughing.

"Brother, don't be joking. I don't know that your new drama "Flying Dragon" will be released at the beginning of the year. I was worried that you three martial arts stars would beat me together, so it was released earlier. Besides, my literary film..." Wu Xiaozu smiled weakly and acted weakly.

His play is a gimmick of a literary film, so he won't easily set the flag as a target!

The publicity offensive of "Suspect" is very fierce, but several movies in the same period are not weak.

On December 12, the new movie "Suspect" will be released on Xinbao Cinemas!
On December 12, Golden Harvest Cinemas will release the new drama "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers 25 Divided into Two Soldiers"!
On December 12th, the new drama "Desperate Beauty" will be released on the Golden Princess Cinema!
On December 12, "Wonderful Two Women" will be screened in Debao Cinemas!
In Princess Jin's play, Leung Ga-fai and Lin Ching-hsia are the leading actors. Both of them have charisma, and it's actually not a problem to make money at the box office.This is also a love movie, which will definitely grab the female audience.

Debao's play is a play made by the popular actress Zheng Dudu and her boyfriend Gan Guoliang. At this time, Zheng Dudu has not found her boyfriend Lu Tongxie, who is 16 years younger than herself, to play with her siblings.

At this time, she herself can be regarded as a very popular actress in Hong Kong Island. She can be compared with Xie Yiyi in later generations in terms of size. The degree of support is evident?Among TVB's actresses, it may be second only to Sister A.Movies may be popular with teachers and TV fans.

The audience tickets for the premiere of "Suspect" were sold out quickly.In addition to the movie tickets sold to loyal movie fans, there are also a lot of free tickets for the premiere ceremony. Most of the tickets are given to film critics, filmmakers in the circle, columnists, journalists and wealthy celebrities.

He Chaoqiong, an investor, also took great pains to promote the movie.

A special celebration party was set up early after the premiere.Invitation cards to parties are also quite precious.

Many celebrities, rich people, reporters and audiences slowly found their seats. After the noise, everyone was attracted by the main creative team appearing on the stage, and the theater gradually became quiet.

"Welcome everyone to the premiere of Suspect."

Wu Xiaozu looked around the dark place, and said: "I think there are fans of this movie's novel, and there are also fans of this movie's music. Whether it's a novel, movie, or music, it's actually what I want to convey.

This is not a simple love movie or detective reasoning.Several leading actors around me have also dedicated their performances at the level of actor and actress in this movie. I hope everyone can walk into the story of this movie..."

During this part of the speech, Wu Xiaozu saw many filmmakers such as Tsui Hark and Wu Yusen sitting in the audience, as well as some well-known writers and column film critics.

Obviously, the propaganda some time ago played a big role.

This film also attracted many peers to review, taste and criticize.After all, it was the first time Xiaozu Wu came into contact with this kind of film.In the past, his style was very distinctive, which also made many colleagues curious about this film.Especially when the announcement of "Suspect" is so enthusiastic, even more so!
