Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2062 Find her to sing
"Are you going to release "Swordsman" earlier?"

What Lin Daoqiu didn't expect was that Tsui Hark didn't choose "A Chinese Ghost Story" first, but planned to let the sequel of "Swordsman" be released first.

In fact, Tsui Hark has no choice. Since the filming of "Swordsman", a large number of follow-up movies have been born immediately.

They can't follow the trend of special effects movies, that's because the production cost of special effects is extremely expensive, once a movie is shot, it may go bankrupt immediately.

But following the trend of movies like "Swordsman" is a piece of cake for them.

At this time, Xiangjiang is still at the end of martial arts movies, and has a large number of excellent staff.

Whether it's movies or TV shows, anyone who is willing to spend money can find talent in this area.

So following the trend of "Swordsman" is not difficult for them.

Just from last year to now, there have been as many as a dozen martial arts movies similar to "Swordsman" in which women disguise themselves as men.

Tsui Hark is worried that if this continues, the box office performance of "Swordsman" may be affected in the summer.

After all, if you watch more of this genre, the audience may feel bored, and the box office will naturally not be much better.

"Your worry is not unreasonable. Since you plan to do this, I certainly support it. This time "Swordsman" can premiere together in Xiangjiang and Baodao."

In the past, it was not possible to premiere in two places at the same time because of many factors that could not be negotiated.

But now New Oriental Cinemas' business in Taiwan is going very smoothly, and now it has the conditions for simultaneous release.

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Tsui Hark naturally showed a very happy smile on his face.

Once Lin Daoqiu's Asian theater strategy is successful, it will be able to be screened in all of Asia at the same time, and the box office revenue can be known at the same time. This is simply a dream for filmmakers like them.

Now this kind of thing that seemed to be a fantasy in the past has begun to gradually become a reality. How can this not make Tsui Hark feel excited?

"You guys on Treasure Island are going to do a one-week itinerary for publicity, and leave the rest to Qingxia, and then the class teacher Xiangjiang will hold the premiere of "Swordsman" here."

Tsui Hark didn't have any opinion on Lin Daoqiu's arrangement. It was very necessary to go to Baodao to promote it, because the Baodao market is now the largest ticket warehouse in the Chinese market besides Xiangjiang.

And the box office of the Taiwan market in the future should not be underestimated, so I have to work hard, and the movies I make may have a box office of over [-] million one day.

"Who did you find to sing the theme song of "Swordsman" this time?"

Since he was going to travel to Baodao, Lin Daoqiu thought that the theme songs of several dramas of "Swordsman" were very popular, so he could take them out and play a round on Baodao first.

"For the Cantonese version of "Only Remember Today's Smile", I found a girl named Lu Shan to sing, but I haven't found anyone for the Mandarin version yet."

"The Mandarin version of "Only Remember Today's Smile" is not..."

When Lin Daoqiu was about to say that Brigitte Lin was not hired to sing, he immediately realized that something was wrong and shut his mouth.

"Mr. Lin?"

Tsui Hark didn't understand what Lin Daoqiu meant, and he looked at him in confusion.

"I mean it's not easy to find someone to sing the Mandarin version, just let Qingxia sing."

Let Lin Qingxia sing the theme song of "Swordsman"?Of course Tsui Hark would be happy if he could, but he has never heard Brigitte Lin sing before, and would she be willing?

After expressing his worries to Lin Daoqiu, the other party irresponsibly asked him to handle the matter by himself.

If you let yourself go to what Brigitte Lin said, then it will be you who will be unlucky, he is not that stupid.

…………

"What? You want me to sing the theme song of "Swordsman"?"

"It's the Mandarin version. I have asked Lu Shan to sing the Cantonese version. In a few days we will go to Baodao to promote "Swordsman", but the Mandarin version has not been recorded yet, so I would like to ask for your help."

According to Lin Daoqiu's words, Tsui Hark brought Shi Nansheng to find Brigitte Lin.

Regarding Tsui Hark's request, Brigitte Lin looked very embarrassed.

It would be fine to let her turn around and fly around on the steel wire in the sky, but Brigitte Lin is still reluctant to let her sing a golden voice, because she doesn't think her singing has reached the level of being able to make a fool of herself in front of the public. Level.

"Director Xu, I'm afraid I can't do this. My singing voice is not good at all, so you should find a professional singer to sing."

Brigitte Lin refused Tsui Hark's request without even thinking about it and asked her to sing. This was simply embarrassing her, and she still used it as the theme song of the movie.

Brigitte Lin knew how popular "Swordsman" was, and she guessed that after the movie was released, the box office results would be better than before, which meant that more people would go to the theater to watch this movie.

If so many people heard her appalling singing, Brigitte Lin would probably be too ashamed to come out to meet people.

"Qingxia, I think that although the movie "Swordsman" will not be the only masterpiece of your life, I believe it will definitely become a movie that is very important to you, so the Mandarin version of this song Who will you be?"

After thinking about it, Lin Qingxia still shook her head, she still couldn't get rid of that shame.

Although she is an actress, she only focuses on the study of acting skills. As for singing, she can only play casually in private, and she has not yet reached the level of performing on stage.

"Why don't you think about it. After all, we will go to Baodao to do publicity in a few days. It's a bit too late. If only the Cantonese version is played, the audience on Baodao won't be able to understand it. It's a pity. gone."

Shi Nansheng was also nearby to help persuade Lin Qingxia, but even though Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng bombed her in turn, Brigitte Lin still did not agree to them in the end.

At dinner time, Lin Daoqiu came to pick Brigitte Lin to her favorite restaurant for dinner.

On the way to the restaurant, Brigitte Lin and Lin Daoqiu talked about it.

"Tsui Hark and Nansen came to me suddenly today and asked me to sing the theme song of "Swordsman". This is really a bit baffling."

"Maybe they think you are suitable for this song."

Lin Daoqiu couldn't hold back, but his smile was not particularly obvious.

But what Lin Daoqiu didn't expect was that the person next to him had slept with him for so many years, and although he still couldn't have a sympathetic heart, Brigitte Lin could immediately detect any abnormal reactions in him.

"Don't tell me that you ordered them to come to me to sing, right?"

Brigitte Lin looked at Lin Daoqiu viciously, and if he was a little careless, he might encounter the "violent hands" of the other party.
