Chapter 151
"Is everyone here?" Xu Guanwu asked in surprise.
"Yeah, everyone wants to hear good news, but how do you know you won't hear it?" Xu Guanying said.
"Ah Wu, don't be sad, the nomination is already hard to come by." Xu Guanwen comforted, "This year's Golden Globe Awards has very strong opponents, "The Godfather 2" and "Chinatown" are rare masterpieces, even if they lose, it is not wronged. "
"Yeah, it's already great to be nominated."
"Stanley, no matter what, he is the pride of our Hong Kong filmmakers!"
……
A large group of people in the room said in a hurry.
Xu Guanwu heard Liang Shuyi's voice, Zheng Shian's voice, and Zhong Jinghui's voice. Hearing so many people comforting him together, Xu Guanwu felt warm in his heart.
"Thank you everyone, thank you!" Xu Guanwu said emotionally, "By the way, I want to say a few words to Serena."
"Stanley, it's me!" Liang Shuyi answered the phone, "What's the matter?"
"I want to ask how the poaching plan is going? And what about "Queen of Temple Street"?" Xu Guanwu asked.
"The poaching plan is going very well. The editor-in-chiefs of several newspapers including "Sing Tao Daily", "Cheng Pao" and "Eastern Economic Journal" all intend to join us. We have already contacted hundreds of people." Liang Shuyi reported, "But Due to the background of "Oriental Daily", we have not dared to act rashly for the time being."
Xu Guanwu nodded. The poaching plan only took a few days to achieve such a brilliant achievement, and Liang Shuyi owed a lot of credit to it.
As for the "Oriental Daily", Xu Guanwu was also a little apprehensive.The behind-the-scenes owners of this newspaper are Ma Xizhen and Ma Xiru brothers, one of the four underground families in Hong Kong, who are super drug lords just like Laihao.
The legendary experience of the two brothers was later made into a movie "Four Great Families: Brothers and Tigers", starring Lu Liangwei and Zheng Zeshi, which is also a classic of Hong Kong biopics.
Although Xu Guanwu knew that the two brothers would be investigated by the ICAC in the future, he didn't know the exact time.Therefore, it is unavoidable that there are some people who are cautious and dare not attack the "Oriental Daily" blatantly.
After all, this newspaper is an important tool for the Ma Brothers to launder black money. If Xu Guanwu destroys it, they will definitely take their anger out on him.
These people are not ordinary businessmen, and they tell you the rules of doing business. They are well-known big drug lords. They have countless lives in their hands. Sending gunmen to kill their opponents is just a piece of cake.
Xu Guanwu still wanted to live for decades, so naturally he didn't want to provoke these guys.
"Then what about "The Queen of Temple Street"?" Xu Guanwu asked again.
"I have invited well-known Hong Kong film critics and filmmakers to enjoy the film "The Queen of Temple Street", and we have also published their film reviews in our newspaper. Although everyone has said a lot of good things about this film, but The effect is still not obvious. "Oriental Daily", "Sing Tao Daily" and other newspapers are still criticizing, I think we have to wait until we poach people, before we can return the innocence of "Queen of Temple Street." Liang Shuyi introduced .
"Then let's step up our efforts and try to recruit people here as soon as possible." Xu Guanwu said, "If this matter is not resolved quickly, it will be troublesome when films such as "Drunken Master" and "Salted Fish Resurrection" are released in the future."
"I see." Liang Shuyi nodded.
……
After finishing the phone call, Xu Guanwu fell on the bed with his back to the sky.
"Hong Kong is still not so good?" Zhao Yazhi saw that his face was a little pale, she quickly raised Xu Guanwu's head, placed it on her lap, and then spread her fingers on the acupuncture points on Xu Guanwu's head to help him Gently massaged up.
"Well, I was kind enough to support Hong Kong's niche films, but I didn't expect to be criticized so much. I don't know why I spent so much effort." Xu Guanwu sighed.
I rent theaters with good intentions, invest in new directors to make movies... I have done so much for Hong Kong movies, but no one appreciates it. Instead, I was scolded by several newspapers. Thinking about it, it is really not worth it.
"Don't be angry, when you do things, there are always people who like to be scolded by others." Zhao Yazhi comforted, "As long as you know what you are doing is the right thing, that's all. Is it really that important what other people think?"
"That's right." Xu Guanwu suddenly realized that what he did was something against the heavens. It's normal for others not to understand, why should he be angry for these people.
"Azhi, you really deserve to be my good wife." Xu Guanwu jumped up and kissed her hard.
……
The next day, at breakfast, the waiter delivered the newspaper ironed.
Xu Guanwu opened it and saw that there were reports on the grand occasion of the Golden Globe Awards Ceremony yesterday, including reports about Xu Guanwu.
""Rocky" didn't get any of the five nominations, and Hong Kong investors were sad."
"The American Dream was no match for Chinatown, and all five nominations fell through."
……
"These American newspapers know how to write scribbles, let's eat first and don't read them." Zhao Yazhi worried that her husband's appetite would be affected after reading these, so she quickly persuaded her.
"It's okay, let's see what they say." Xu Guanwu waved his hand, "Eh?! This paragraph also mentioned you, saying that you are very beautiful, and even named you an oriental goddess."
"What 'Oriental Goddess' sounds really nasty." Zhao Yazhi waved her hand and smiled.
"No, I think the description is very good." Xu Guanwu agreed, "In my heart, you are my goddess."
Zhao Yazhi smiled complacently after hearing this, "Stop talking about it, let's eat."
"Well, I want to meet someone after dinner, dinner, and dinner." Xu Guanwu also said.
"Who are you going to see?" Zhao Yazhi asked.
"A very powerful film director, if I can get him under my command, I will be equal in Hollywood in the future." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.
"Who is so powerful?" Zhao Yazhi didn't believe it.
"Steve Spielberg." Xu Guanwu said.
"Who is this? I've never heard of this name before. Is he really that powerful?" Zhao Yazhi asked suspiciously.
"Of course, you'll know in a few months. This is definitely one of the most successful directors in Hollywood." Xu Guanwu laughed.
Xu Guanwu couldn't help being excited at the thought of meeting the most famous director in Hollywood. After finishing his meal quickly, Xu Guanwu changed into his suitcase and was about to go out when the phone rang.
Xu Guanwu frowned, picked up the phone, "Stanley, it's me!"
Lei Shidong's voice came from the phone.
"Call me so early?" Xu Guanwu smiled, "Didn't you come to comfort me?"
"Did you say that you didn't win the award? I don't think I need to comfort you at all. With your ability, you should have foreseen it long ago." Lei Shidong said, "I called to ask you, do you have time later? I want to meet with you."
"Now? Are you in a hurry? Can you wait for a while? I have something to do later....Well, I'll wait for you in the hotel lobby." Xu Guanwu put down the phone with a weird smile on his face, Lei Shidong was so restless, It looks like things are progressing a bit.
