Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 164
Wu Chou, Yu Kanping, Xu Bubu, Hu Huizhong, Qin Xianglin, Li Liqun and others lined up.

Today is the press conference for the new drama "Wine Dried If You Sell Nothing". Wu Chou brought a group of reporters over. Apart from announcing the start of filming the new drama, he also wanted to introduce his Changhong Film Company.

"Welcome all journalists and friends to the press conference of the new drama "If the Wine Dried If You Sell Nothing"."

Wu Chou was not used to facing so many media, so he asked Xu Bu to act as a guest host temporarily.

After Xu Bu had introduced all the main cast and crew, the reporters below realized that the protagonist of this play was not Qin Xianglin, but Xu Bu.

"Director Yu, why did you invite Qin Xianglin but not use him as the leading actor?"

If you don't read the script, just look at the lineup in the stands, no matter what you think, it should be Qin Xianglin and Hu Huizhong.

After all, now everyone is used to seeing a combination of handsome men and beautiful women, instead of this kind of clown with beautiful women, which is really unacceptable.

"Because the screenwriter and producer of this play are both Mr. Lin Daoqiu Lin, and he also named Mr. Xu as the male lead of this play."

What Yu Kanping said was that Lin Daoqiu made all these decisions. If you have any questions, you can ask him.

But as soon as Yu Kanping finished speaking, the reporters in the audience immediately went crazy, because they still didn't know that Lin Daoqiu was the producer and screenwriter.

You must know that his "Master Qian" is still playing in movie theaters, and it is said that China Television is already negotiating the copyright of "Ip Man".

I believe it won't be long before the first TV series "Ip Man" produced by Lin Daoqiu will be able to meet the audience in Baodao.

But compared to the TV series, the movies he made are more shocking.

After all, records have been broken one after another, and I heard that "Master Qian" is also the most popular movie in Southeast Asia.

"Since Mr. Lin is the producer and screenwriter of this play, why didn't he meet anyone else?"

"Please let Mr. Lin come out for an interview."

The reporters in the audience thought that Lin Daoqiu would appear at this press conference today. After all, he is currently filming a TV series in Baodao.

But Yu Kanping shook his head directly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Lin can't come to this press conference because he is busy filming a drama."

Everyone looked very disappointed when they heard that Lin Daoqiu would not appear, but they were very curious about the mysterious Lin Daoqiu.

Because he hasn't shown his face in the media until now, everyone doesn't know what kind of person it is who made the two films "Master Qian" and "Ip Man".

After learning that Lin Daoqiu was not there, everyone shifted the topic to Qin Xianglin. After all, he is the most famous on stage now.

But what annoyed Qin Xianglin was that the reporters either asked him whether he and Xiao Fangfang had divorced, or asked about his scandals with other actresses, which made him really unbearable.

"Sorry, I don't want to answer questions about my personal feelings. Today is the film's press conference, so everyone should ask more questions about this film."

Qin Xianglin was also really helpless, obviously he was only a supporting role in it, but the reporters just didn't want to let him go and kept asking questions.

Wu Chou realized that because of Qin Xianglin's relationship, the press conference was almost turning into an exclusive interview with him. In a rage, he simply announced that the press conference was over.

"Mr. Wu, don't be angry. Those reporters are like this. You can report any news that attracts people. You just get used to it in the future."

Seeing Wu Chou's angry look, Yu Kanping hurried forward to persuade him.

Although Wu Chou was upset, he also felt that Yu Kanping's words were reasonable.

After all, those reporters also have to eat. If the reports are all dry things, I am afraid no one will be interested.

So no matter how upset he was, he could only nod in the end, suppressing his anger.

…………

Three days later, "Dried Wine" was officially launched, and the first scene was filmed in the China Film Cultural City.

The plot is that after the magic show, Xu Fu was walking home when he suddenly found an abandoned baby girl on the corner of the street.

"You have just been smashed by the audience with something, so the makeup should not be too neat, it is better to be messy."

Because today is the first scene to be filmed, Lin Daoqiu had to come over and show Yu Kanping how this scene should be filmed.

And this is Xu Fu's first time as a leading actor in a movie. He looks a little nervous, worried that his performance will not satisfy Lin Daoqiu.

After the makeup artist came to mess up the unacceptable clown makeup according to Lin Daoqiu's request, the filming officially started.

On the deserted street, Xu Bu was carrying a suitcase full of things, and as he walked, he cursed the audience who threw things at him.

Suddenly, he heard a baby girl crying and saw a basket on the corner of the street.

Surprised, he hurried over and found that there was a baby girl and a note inside.

"Her name is Amei, the kind person who adopted her, Mazu will bless you, poor man worship."

"It's really young...how can you bear to do this?"

Looking at the baby girl in the basket, Xu Bu was so anxious that he immediately got up and started looking around, trying to see if he could find the person who abandoned the baby girl.

Unfortunately, after a few laps, he found that there was not even a single person around.

At this moment, it started to rain suddenly. Worried that the baby girl would get sick in the rain, Xu Bu hurriedly picked up the basket, planning to take her home and talk about it first.

"Crack..."

After Yu Kanping finished shouting, he turned to look at Lin Daoqiu beside him.

Although he is the director, he seems to have little say when Lin Daoqiu is present.

"Very good, this one is over."

Xu Fu thought it would take many shots to satisfy Lin Daoqiu, but he didn't expect to pass the first pass.

In fact, Lin Daoqiu didn't expect Xu Bu to behave so naturally.

Although he was very nervous before shooting, once the shouting started, he could immediately enter the role, which has to be said to be his talent.

"Go and take another scene."

After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, the staff at the scene immediately started to clean up.

On the way to the next scene, Lin Daoqiu called Yu Kanping and Zhu Yanping over.

"Don't be exaggerated in this film, try to let the actors show their true feelings instead of relying on acting skills to show them. Can you understand me when I say this?"

Yu Kanping and Zhu Yanping nodded, they had more or less understood the meaning of Lin Daoqiu's words.

"Mr. Lin..."

Yu Kanping faltered, as if he had encountered some problem.

Lin Daoqiu looked at the other party without speaking, but showed a puzzled look.

"About Qin Xianglin's role, if he played it completely according to the script, would he really be able to accept it?"

After reading the script, Yu Kanping couldn't believe that Qin Xianglin would play the role of the karaoke manager.

To put it bluntly, this character is simply too bad, it can be said to be the villain among the villains.

He even doubted whether Qin Xianglin was forced by Wu Chou with a gun to act, otherwise how could he have accepted the play.

"Don't worry, since Mr. Qin agreed to take this role, it means that he came prepared and you don't need to worry."

Lin Daoqiu's words made Yu Kanping heave a sigh of relief, since Lin Daoqiu said so, then he has nothing to worry about.
