Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2276
At six o'clock in the afternoon, it was time for New Oriental to get off work.

But Lin Daoqiu, who was sitting in the office, didn't seem to realize that it was time to get off work.

"Boss, the time is almost up. They are asking when you will be there?"

Today is the premiere day of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", and it was arranged to hold the premiere at the Haiyun Theater.

Lin Daoqiu, who is the investor, producer, director, and screenwriter of this drama, will naturally attend in person.

But what troubled Lin Daoqiu was that Zhong Chuhong and Brigitte Lin both participated in the performance of this drama, and they would naturally also attend the premiere.

Under normal circumstances, except for the awards ceremony of the Academy Awards, Zhong Chuhong and Brigitte Lin are basically unlikely to appear on the same occasion.

Originally, he could only worry about it once a year, or things that he didn't need to worry about suddenly popped up, which naturally made Lin Daoqiu very helpless.

Because no matter which one you accompany to the premiere of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", the other person will definitely be very dissatisfied.

Since this is the case, Lin Daoqiu can only choose not to accompany anyone and let them go to the premiere by themselves.

As for Lin Daoqiu himself, he could only go there alone.

"Come on, go back and change and go to the premiere."

Lin Daoqiu was troubled by another point, that is, after the last press conference, he appeared in front of the reporters of the news media for the first time.

At this time, there must be a lot of reporters squatting at the scene of Haiyun Theater, waiting for his appearance.

In order to prevent unexpected situations, Li Maowen has tripled the number of security personnel to maintain order at the scene.

However, for the sake of safety, Li Maowen still suggested that Lin Daoqiu should not go through the main entrance, and it would be better not to appear in front of reporters.

For Li Maowen's suggestion, Lin Daoqiu accepted it after a little thought.

After returning home, he changed his clothes, Lin Daoqiu changed into an ordinary car, and then drove to Haiyun Theater.

As Lin Daoqiu had guessed, many reporters were already crowded outside the Haiyun Theater at this time.

Outside the red line, a large number of reporters gathered around, waiting for Lin Daoqiu's appearance.

"I don't think Mr. Lin will show up today."

While waiting for Lin Daoqiu, several reporters began to chat about him.

"It shouldn't be, it's all over, and Baodao shouldn't dare to do anything to Mr. Lin, right?"

"I think this matter is very serious. If it's me, I wouldn't dare to risk my life."

Just when several reporters were still chatting about whether Lin Daoqiu would show up today.

Suddenly a Mercedes-Benz car stopped in front of the red carpet, and then the door opened, and Tsui Hark walked out of the car with Shi Nansheng.

As one of the directors of this film, Tsui Hark was entrusted by Lin Daoqiu today to be in charge of the premiere of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

Leading Shi Nansheng onto the red carpet, the reporters immediately snapped the shutter.

It stands to reason that as the director of "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern", the questions everyone asked Tsui Hark at this time should be related to this drama.

But Tsui Hark's ears would ring from time to time, questions about Lin Daoqiu.

"Director Xu, will Mr. Lin come today?"

"Director Xu, isn't Mr. Lin already in the theater? Why didn't he come out for an interview?"

Tsui Hark smiled and nodded around, but didn't reply a word.

Today's premiere did not have an off-site host, so Tsui Hark went straight into the theater after walking the red carpet, without giving reporters a chance to ask questions.

After all, he is also very clear that the questions of those reporters must be related to Lin Daoqiu.

But today is the premiere of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern". If I keep answering the topics related to Lin Daoqiu, then the theme of this premiere will be distorted.

It's just that for reporters, news with traffic and explosive news is what they pursue.

Whether the movie "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern" is good or not, what are its selling points, etc., actually they don't matter at all.

Not long after Tsui Hark finished walking the red carpet, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao also arrived at the scene.

Besides them, Zhong Chuhong also followed them.

"Miss Zhong, why didn't you see Mr. Lin today?"

Zhong Chuhong had already figured out how to answer these questions from the reporter.

"Brother Hong and Brother Biao walked the red carpet with me, don't you think that's not enough?"

"That's right. From the meaning of your words, it seems that neither of us has any weight at all."

When the reporters heard what they said, they knew that Zhong Chuhong was using Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao as a shield.

It would be fine if Zhong Chuhong was looking for someone else, but Sammo Hung's status in the Xiangjiang film and television industry is really extraordinary.

""Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is a blockbuster with special effects produced locally in Hong Kong. I hope more audiences will buy tickets to enjoy it. I guarantee that it will definitely be worth the ticket price."

Zhong Chuhong still does not forget to help promote "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

And no matter how hard those reporters asked about things related to Lin Daoqiu, Zhong Chuhong didn't even answer a single word.

Then Zhong Chuhong and Sammo Hung finished the interview and entered the theater.

Not long after Zhong Chuhong and the others entered, another car drove up.

This time there was only one person who got out of the car, and that was the big beauty Lin Qingxia.

When Lin Qingxia appeared, the reporters on the scene seemed to be crazy, and the flashlights kept flashing.

Brigitte Lin in a long skirt walked onto the red carpet alone.

"Miss Lin, why didn't Mr. Lin come with you today?"

At this time, a reporter suddenly asked a loud question.

Hearing what the other party said, Lin Qingxia just smiled slightly, and then replied.

"There are so many Mr. Lin in Xiangjiang, how do I know which one you are talking about, and I am not a child, so I don't need others to accompany me on the red carpet."

Brigitte Lin's words sounded a bit wrong.

People who don't know the relationship between her and Lin Daoqiu can't hear Brigitte Lin's subtext at all.

But those reporters have been running around for so many years about Brigitte Lin and Lin Daoqiu's scandal, when she said this, everyone naturally heard her implication.

"Miss Lin, do you feel a little unhappy that Mr. Lin didn't accompany you to this premiere?"

"Sorry, I don't know who Mr. Lin you're talking about, but the premiere was scheduled for me to go alone from the beginning, so I can't have any complaints, and you can't scribble."

Then Lin Qingxia answered a few topics related to "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", and then turned and walked towards the theater.

At this moment, Lin Daoqiu was sitting in the theater. He came in through the back door, and no reporter noticed this at all.

At this time Fang Jinsheng suddenly leaned in front of Lin Daoqiu and whispered something.

"Miss Zhong and Miss Lin are here."

Lin Daoqiu looked back, Zhong Chuhong and Brigitte Lin were standing there looking at him.
