Reborn Hong Kong Wild Age

Chapter 1

What kind of end point is worthy of this journey of ups and downs?

Regarding this question, Gu Xiayang stared at his handsome self in the mirror in a daze. He probably didn't expect that fate would be so turbulent!
The pretty guy in the mirror wore a white shirt with sleeves rolled up, paired with a pair of blue jeans, so simple and ordinary.

In his previous life, Gu Xiayang was an orphan who graduated from Jiangnan University of Electronic Science and Technology. As a fan of the Hong Kong entertainment industry, after graduation, he resolutely went to an entertainment magazine as a small editor regardless of his major, and finally moved to the entertainment industry by chance. behind the scenes.

Who would have thought that after stumbling in the entertainment industry, he would wake up and become a young boy with the same name and surname in Hong Kong in 1985.

Just a few days after graduating from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, it is also an institution of higher learning, and it also has a handsome skin.

The only fly in the ointment is that the river view room of more than 100 square meters that I have worked so hard for has become a pigeon cage that is far less than [-] square meters!

"It's the third day, it seems that I really can't go back!" Looking at the small but clean room, Gu Xiayang patted his handsome cheek.

Gu Xiayang, who had been ill for two consecutive days, finally regained his energy today, and completely merged all the messy memories in his head.

Gu Xiayang, who has perfectly harmonized the two souls, knows a lot about his family's situation.

"Qiye Village...my mother is just too stubborn, otherwise she should have moved away long ago. There's no need to live in a public housing estate!" Gu Xiayang couldn't help complaining.

Qiye Village is located in Kowloon Bay, Kwun Tong District, Hong Kong. Kowloon Bay originally refers to the bay of Kowloon Peninsula in Hong Kong, generally refers to the sea area between Hung Hom and Kwun Tong, and is part of Victoria Harbour.

After the massive land reclamation for the construction of Kai Tak Airport, the area of ​​the bay has been greatly reduced. Now it usually refers to the area to the east of the original bay, which is located south of Ngau Chi Wan and west of Ngau Tau Kok. It is mainly used for residential, industrial and commercial purposes.

Public housing estates like Kai Yip Estate are developed by the Housing Authority and the Housing Department, implying that homeowners can own their homes.

The original site of Kai Yip Village was the base of the British Royal Air Force, and the land was reclaimed from Kowloon Bay.

As early as 1927, the Royal Air Force Base in Hong Kong was officially opened. At that time, it included a wide range of areas, including the south of Nga Tsin Wai Village and the current Kai Yip Village, Regent Garden and the Kwun Tong Bypass Linhai area.

In 1981, the British Royal Air Force moved out of this area, and some facilities were rebuilt into Kaiye Village and Kaitai Garden.The "Qi" in the name of Qiye Village means enlightenment, and "Ye" means work, which means "to make a new vision".

Although the implication is very good, but public housing estates have always been lived in low-level people, for example, Chen Haonan in "Young and Dangerous", was born in a public housing estate.

However, compared to those residents who are mostly elderly and children, there are also many South Asians and new immigrants living together. Most of the young residents move to the oldest public housing estates in other areas.

Because Qiye Village is adjacent to the old Kai Tak Airport, and there are many logistics companies and aviation family buildings nearby, the public security is many times better.

For example, public housing estates in Chai Wan District have very serious public security problems, gang fights, gangsters raped women passing by, and robbed passers-by. Therefore, many residents in the area dare not return at night. Rarely have this trouble.

Looking out through the window, the sun is shining brightly, but the lighting in the house is not enough, and the dark and long corridor outside makes people feel extremely depressing.

Although the overall security of Qiye Village is not bad, there are less than 2000 units in the whole village, but there are nearly 8200 people living in it. To Gu Xiayang himself, it is really equivalent to a pigeon cage, not to mention the subdivided flats that are being transmitted.

Living in two people like Gu Xiayang's house, can find a way to divide into a two-room house, which is absolutely high-end in Qiye Village.Most of the houses are pitifully small, crowded with a large family.

"It's no wonder that you can straighten your back when you buy a thousand-foot mansion in Hong Kong. It's worth reporting!"

In Gu Xiayang's opinion, a thousand-foot mansion in Hong Kong is simply worthless, because it is only about [-] square meters in real terms. If such a house is placed in the mainland, it is definitely not enough for a mansion.

But why is this Hong Kong where every inch of land is expensive? Most Hong Kong people have struggled all their lives for this apartment.

"So this is Hong Kong! Hong Kong in 1985!"

This year, the fledgling brother Cheng Long finally established a school, founded Weihe Company with the support of Golden Harvest, and released his first work "Police Story".

This year, Zhang Manyu gave up her star image and acted in many thrilling scenes at the risk of disfigurement.

At this time, she is still a lovely vase that is not carved naturally, and a pair of small rabbit teeth are very cute, but she has won Jackie Chan's respect with her stubbornness and courage.

After breaking off her engagement, Lin Qingxia sought a breakthrough, changed her look, and cut off her long hair to take over the film.

Cheng Long didn't treat her preferentially just because she was the former woman of his elder brother Qin Xianglin.She has withstood unprecedented challenges in the film. Although a lot of doubles are used, there are still many shots of herself in battle, all kinds of hair pulling, back falling, and glass hitting.

The jade girl Qiongyao, who was once held in the palm of everyone's hands, has made arduous efforts for transformation.

This year, Xu Guanjie, the first-generation song god who had been silent for a long time, turned his luck after releasing Xinyibao Records. His first album was very popular. Golden songs and top ten golden songs.

This year, the success of small productions cannot change the fate of Shaw Brothers Pictures.Just in March, Shao Yifu's dearest third brother, Shao Renmei, passed away, which was a heavy blow to him and accelerated the decline of Shao's family.

Gu Xiayang knew that in August, Shaw Brothers would stop film production, and its theater business would be transferred to Pan Disheng's Debao Films, and the studio in Clear Water Bay would be exclusively used by TVB.Two years later, Shaw officially announced its closure.

Also in this year, Weng Meiling, a generation of 'Pretty Huang Rong', was found to commit suicide by turning on gas in her apartment in the early morning of May 5th, leaving a last message on the family calendar: Darling, I love you.

The dead are forever young, and the star's life stops at 26 years old.It is said that more than 10 people spontaneously took to the streets to see him off.At the funeral, the four wireless tigers helped the spirit together. According to the custom of bereavement, ex-boyfriend Tang Zhenye buried half of the comb beside Weng Meiling.

This handsome young man who used to be in the wind has since become a cold and heartless man who has been criticized by thousands of people.

……

This year, Tan Zhangmei, two kings and one queen, bloomed;
This year, the golden age of Hong Kong movies will begin;
This year, the beauty that Gu Xiayang likes is still young, and the superstar he admires is just showing his edge;
This is Hong Kong in 1985.

"What kind of ending will this time really be worthy of my ups and downs! From the ups and downs in the 21st century to Hong Kong in the 80s, fate has long guided." Gu Xiayang sat on a chair, holding his head in one hand and muttering One sound.

Money must be earned, but it is not the most important thing for Gu Xiayang now. It is easy to make some money in the 80s with his mind.

There will always be bread, and it is indispensable. Dreams should not be lost!
The Hong Kong entertainment industry in the 80s can be called the golden age. Now that such an era has come, how could Gu Xiayang miss it.

"Write some popular scripts and submit them to film and television companies?"

As soon as this idea came to Gu Xiayang's mind, it was rejected.Not to mention the low status and meager income of screenwriters in this industry, he would feel blind if these scripts were shot poorly.

So-called screenwriters or ordinary directors want to sign some kind of gambling or sharing contract with the film company, and it will be ridiculous to spread the word.

Just relying on an ordinary screenwriter to get a share of the box office, should the director share some?Do you want to divide the supervision?Actors also come to share a little bit?Everyone share a little bit, what money the company makes.

"Write a song?"

Gu Xiayang, who has countless golden songs in his mind, quickly shook his head, this is less reliable than being a screenwriter.Ordinary lyrics, probably hundreds of thousands of dollars.

At that time, Zhang Guorong wanted to find a famous person to fill in the lyrics with his own money, but because the other party asked for 3000 yuan, he quickly slipped away.

Speaking of the Hong Kong music scene, it is a pity that even if there are famous songwriters such as Brilliant Ersheng, almost 50.00% of the singers are supported by the pop music of the island country.As for those popular and enduring songs, they accounted for 70.00%.

Most of the hit songs are mostly arrangements from island countries.The music company in Hong Kong listened to it well, bought the copyright, asked someone to rewrite the lyrics, and when it was done, a new hit song was released.

"With my mediocre appearance, being an actor is more than enough, but it's too much suffering! Even if you go to the wireless artist training class known as the 'Whampoa Military Academy', you have to wait three to five years to get it. The first day."

For the classic quotations from the previous life, even Zhang Guorong would have to endure it for ten years.In this entertainment industry, if you want to be an artist, it's not as easy as you think.Being an actor has nothing to do with his background, and if he can't meet Bo Le, people like Zhou Xingchi and others have to stay dormant for many years, playing tricks like crazy.

Set up your own film and television company?For the current Gu Xiayang, it is undoubtedly a fantasy, and it is impossible to compare it to the sky.

This is not something that can be done by setting up a shell company and gathering a group of actors to complete the filming.The preparation, shooting, and promotion of a film is far from being as simple as imagined.

Investing blindly with money, he was devoured by those old ghosts in the movie circle every minute without even a bone left.

I think Boss Lei is rich, powerful and has theaters, and the Golden Princess theaters are famous, but he can't play without stars or filmmakers.It wasn't until they met the Seven Monsters of New Art City that they could create a three-legged situation in the Hong Kong film industry.

"So I have a dragon-slaying skill for nothing? But I have nowhere to use it?!"

"Boom boom boom——"

"Is anyone home?"

Just when Gu Xiayang was thinking about the future, there was a knock on the door accompanied by a warm and sweet girl.

"Little Jew!"

Gu Xiayang opened the door and saw the figure at the door, his eyes widened in disbelief.
