The king of ghost horse comedy

Chapter 289
When all the stars stopped filming their movies and devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the star-studded extravaganza, Xu Guanwu was busy working with Daheng Huo to invite local celebrities and wealthy businessmen from Hong Kong to participate in this grand event.

These rich businessmen are all rich people, and any vellus hair plucked will be thicker than the waist of the poor, so they are the main fundraising targets of the charity concert.

In the beginning, it was not easy to make alms. Many wealthy businessmen in Hong Kong fled to Hong Kong in the 60s and [-]s. Their feelings for the mainland were quite complicated, until Xu Guanwu invited Shen Bi, the God of Wealth, out.

With the presence of the God of Wealth, the fundraising work became much easier.Soon, more than ten million Hong Kong dollars were raised, which made Huo Daheng and President Liang both sigh.

"It's a shame to donate money to our compatriots in the mainland and still need to rely on the British to sit in the town." Daheng Huo couldn't help but said.

"It's the country that owed them before, so we can't completely blame them." President Liang knows the cause and effect. These five black people were really beaten back then. If the country wants to restore their hearts, I don't know how much it will cost. effort.

"These donations, including the ticket sales fee and the TV station's advertising expenses, add up to a total of 500 million Hong Kong dollars." Xu Guanwu thought about it in his heart, "It's still not enough."

"To be honest, I was able to raise so much money, which was beyond my expectation." Mr. Liang said with satisfaction, 500 million Hong Kong dollars was already a huge sum of money for the mainland at that time.The Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency has been established for so long, and it has received the largest amount of donations, which is this donation.

"Let's see how much money we can get from the on-site donations," Xu Guanwu thought for a while, "And then these songs will be recorded and sold as records, and these live broadcast videos will be sold to other TV stations, which can also raise a fortune." money."

"Mr. Xu is worthy of being a business genius. He can play so many tricks even in charity." President Liang nodded in admiration and said, thinking that he is indeed a capitalist in a capitalist society. He can earn so much money from one concert, he is really a good hand in economics.

……

On August [-]th, Happy Valley Racecourse was full of people.

Today is the concert site of Hong Kong All Stars Forget Me Extravaganza "Tomorrow Will Be Better". From [-]:[-] am, audiences have entered the venue one after another.

Because the Happy Valley Racecourse is an open-air venue, the lighting is very insufficient. At night, sitting in the stands, you can't see the performance on the stage at all, so the performance must be held during the day.

Most of the spectators who entered the venue were wearing white T-shirts, with "United as one, Earthquake Relief" printed on the front, and "Hand in Hand, Overcoming Difficulties Together" printed on the back.These T-shirts were customized and printed overnight by Xu Guanwu. The two sentences before and after were decided by the company colleagues. In addition to the charity sale, they also wanted to use them to cheer up the people in the disaster-stricken areas.

The stars participating in the performance today are all in the same attire as the staff on and off the field, which shows that everyone, regardless of each other, is cheering for the disaster area at this moment.

At 09:30, all cameras, lighting, sound, telephones, etc. were in place; at ten o'clock, all the stars appeared together and appeared on the stage together.

At this moment, whether it is a movie star, a TV star, or a superstar in the music industry, they are all wearing the same white T-shirt, with their faces facing the sky and mourning.

The emcees in charge of hosting are TVB's Shen Dianxia, ​​Wang Mingquan, He Shouxin and Lu Dawei. All four of them are the emcees of "Happy Tonight" and have rich experience in hosting shows. Although today's concert is very popular, but for them Speaking of it, he was still able to do a job with ease, and he didn't show stage fright because he faced tens of thousands of spectators.

"On July 28, the sky fell and the earth fell apart. Countless people lost their lives in their sleep, children lost their parents, and people lost their homes!" Wang Mingquan said emotionally.

"On July 28, a catastrophe destroyed a city, but it couldn't wipe out people's hearts!" He Shouxin said loudly.

"Today we are here to pray for all the people who lost their homes, wishing them far away from this disaster, and wishing them a happy life and a healthy life." Shen Dianxia said.

"We are here today to show love for the people in the disaster area and let them be with us. I pray that they will be better tomorrow." Lu Dawei said in a cadence.

Then the music sounded slowly, Zhang Guorong, Wen Na, Xu Guanjie, Xu Guanying, Xu Guanwu, Xu Guanwen, Deng Lijun, Zheng Shaoqiu, Zhao Yazhi, Li Siqi, Huang Xingxiu, Xu Xiaofeng, etc., Xu's and all TVB stars stood up together and sang the first A song "Tomorrow will be better".

Because Xu Guanwu is familiar with the Mandarin version of this song, but because it is too troublesome to practice, and there will be problems with pronunciation from time to time, so Master Huang Zhan spent half an hour refilling the lyrics in Cantonese. It was so fast that Xu Guanwu, a civil servant, was amazed.

"Knock gently to wake up the sleeping soul, and slowly open your eyes..." Deng Lijun, the queen of music, sang the first line of the lyrics, followed by Xu Guanjie, the originator of Cantonese songs, followed by the second line, and then Xu Xiaofeng sang the third line. Sing the fourth line, and Zhao Yazhi sang the fifth line...one by one, and then a chorus.

The song "Tomorrow will be better" is a very classic public welfare song. It was originally released by a Taiwanese singer in response to the American stars' fundraising for Africa, and it coincided with the call for the [-]th anniversary of Taiwan's liberation and the World Peace Year. Such a public welfare album.

This song was composed by Luo Dayou, the godfather of Taiwanese pop music, and musicians such as Luo Dayou, Zhang Aijia, Zhang Dachun and other musicians wrote the lyrics, and then gathered the most popular singers in Taiwan at that time to sing together. The album produced was publicly bid by the record company, and all the surplus was donated to charity cause.

At the beginning of the creation of this song, it was based on the principle of being pleasant to listen to and easy to sing. It is the crystallization of Luo Dayou's hard work, and it is also the result of the creation of all Taiwanese musicians.After its release, it sold 25 copies in Hong Kong and Taiwan alone, setting a sales record for public welfare songs.And for some reason, this song quickly became popular in the mainland and became a must-choice song for elementary school students singing competitions.

Today this song was sung at the Happy Valley Racecourse in Hong Kong, and immediately touched tens of thousands of audience present.With smooth melody and beautiful lyrics, it is a rare classic in the Chinese music scene.

In the box on the second floor, the group of President Liang and Daheng Huo who were seated also nodded frequently after listening, "This song is really a good song with healthy thoughts and positive meaning. It is really rare." President Liang nodded and said.

"That's right. From this we can see that popular songs are not necessarily all popular songs. We can also sing songs like this in our country." Another comrade nodded and said.

……

After the singing of "Tomorrow Will Be Better", all the stars walked off the stage one after another, and then Ms. Deng Lijun presented "Dedication of Love".

This song "Dedication of Love" is not Wei Wei's heartbreaking song, but the one sung by Taiwanese singer Weng Qianyu who studied in Japan.It is also the song often played on CCTV's "Zhengda Variety Show", "Love is LOVE, love is ARMOR, love is RAK, love is love, love is LOVE..."

In the 80s and [-]s, Deng Lijun's status in the mainland could be said to be like a goddess. Wanwan's outpost in Kinmen and Matsu often broadcast Deng Lijun's songs to my coastal areas, which attracted many soldiers to listen secretly at that time.Therefore, it was called a decadent sound, corrupting the ideological will of our army.

Later, with the reform and opening up, Deng Lijun's tapes secretly flowed into the mainland, but if you want to listen to it, you must hide it very carefully, otherwise you may be detained and sentenced if you are caught.

President Liang Weilin has also heard of Deng Lijun's name, and he couldn't help but look at Daheng Huo with some doubts, "Hey, isn't this woman from Taiwan? Why did she also show up at this concert? It seems that the people of Wanwan are still very fond of us in the mainland." There is a sense of belonging."

Huo Daheng couldn't help smiling when he heard this, "This Miss Deng Lijun is an employee in Mr. Xu's company, so naturally the boss will come over to greet her."

"So that's the case. Mr. Xu is really amazing. He has gone to Taiwan for the united front work." Another comrade present nodded and said.

Huo Daheng almost laughed when he heard that, these comrades from the mainland are good at everything, but their brains are stiff because of sports. People can't laugh or cry.

……

After Deng Lijun's "Dedication of Love", Xu Guanjie came on stage and shocked the audience with his song "My Chinese Heart".

"The mountains and rivers are only in my dreams, and the motherland has not been close to me for many years..." As soon as Xu Guanjie sang this song, President Liang and everyone in the box all had expressions on their faces, "Ah, does this song have a good idea? It's really very good Song. Listen, the people of Hong Kong still love our motherland very much. Who is this singer?"

"Oh, he is Mr. Xu's fourth brother, Xu Guanjie, a famous singer and movie star in Hong Kong." Daheng Huo helped introduce him.

"Unexpectedly, Mr. Xu is full of loyalty, which is really admirable." A comrade next to him said.

Liang Weilin couldn't help coughing when he heard this, "It's not appropriate to describe a family of loyalty, but a family of patriots is really rare."

"The Yangtze River, the Great Wall, Huangshan Mountain, and the Yellow River are very important in my heart, no matter when, no matter where, my heart is the same..."

"The lyrics and melody of this song are good. I think it would be great if everyone in Hong Kong sang it." Liang Weilin couldn't help but nodded.

"It's up to Mr. Xu to help. He has his own record company, his own film and television company, and his own newspaper media. It's perfect for him to do the promotion." Daheng Huo suggested, "And I I don't think he would refuse."

"That's a good way, but it's too much trouble for others." Liang Weilin couldn't help sighing, "It's a pity that our mainland is underdeveloped now, and we can't provide anything. It's really troublesome to you all the time..."

"President Liang, please don't say that. It is our common wish to make the motherland strong, and we don't want to seek rewards for our contribution to the motherland." Huo Daheng said quickly.

"Having said that, we are always uneasy in our hearts. This friendship is too heavy." President Liang Weilin sighed.

……

After Xu Guanjie's "My Chinese Heart" was sung, Xu Xiaofeng came to the stage to sing "Current and Countercurrent". This is also a new song created by Xu Guanwu, and it is also one of Xu Xiaofeng's previous classic songs. It was created in advance at this moment, and it is equally beautiful It was equally touching, and all the fans present were amazed.

To be honest, many fans came to this concert today, thinking that they would just sing some old songs, because the preparation time for the concert was too hasty, how could there be so many good new songs?
But they happened to meet Xu Guanwu, a Wenchao, who traveled with the biggest cheat bug, so from the first song at the opening to the current four songs, the first capital is a new song, and the first capital is very nice, let them call out these few songs. The value of ten yuan is really not in vain today.

"I accepted silently how many difficult days, how much bitterness I did not let go, deliberately picky today and I don't care..." Xu Xiaofeng sang emotionally, feeling that every line of the lyrics was written especially for her.

The artists on and off the stage were also very moved when they heard it, and this song is not a portrayal of them.As an artist, there are ups and downs, so the most important thing is to have a good attitude, and believe that every tear can be exchanged for an achievement.
