The king of ghost horse comedy

Chapter 72 Marriage
After returning to Hong Kong, the Brilliant Cinemas under the Xu Brothers Company, after half a month of redecoration, has taken on a new look, and all the huge signboards have been hung up.

Amidst the thundering gongs and drums, the four Hui brothers, together with celebrities in Hong Kong's political and business circles, cut the ribbon for the opening of the new theater circuit.

Huge color photos were published on the front pages of major newspapers.

"Brilliant Cinemas' New Opening, Hong Kong Film Three Kingdoms Contest for Hegemony!" read the headline of "Sing Tao Daily".

"Where the Seagull Flies" was screened in seven theaters under Brilliant Cinemas, while the remaining eight theaters screened two Kung Fu films, all from independent production companies.

Brilliant Cinemas was officially launched, and Xu Guanwen sincerely hired Selina Chow as the manager of Brilliant Cinemas.

When it comes to Selina Chow, I have to introduce her grandly. She is a legendary woman in Hong Kong.

She is a well-known TV personality in Hong Kong, a former member of the Executive Council, a member of the New Territories West Constituency of the Legislative Council, a former vice-chairman of the Liberal Party, and a former chairman of the Hong Kong Tourism Board.

Because her father used to run a film distribution and theater business, Selina Chow was very interested in film and television since she was a child. After she grew up, she went to study at the Rosebruff School of Speech and Drama in the UK, and worked as a director at the Royal Academy of Music Drama Theater in the UK. teachers and actors.

After finishing his studies, he returned to Hong Kong to join TVB as a producer, and produced many popular programs, such as "The Annunciation of Two Stars" and so on.Because of this, I got acquainted with Xu Guanwen and became very good friends.

After Xu Guanwen established Brilliant Cinemas, he felt that the company lacked manpower and talent to manage the cinemas, so he sincerely invited Zhou Liang Shuyi here.

Selina Chow stayed in TVB for four years, and grew from a small weather forecast announcer to a powerful producer. If it were someone else, she would be willing to stay in TVB for the rest of her life.

But Selina Chow likes to constantly challenge herself. At that time, there were two TV stations in Hong Kong, one was TVB and the other was Lai TV.

But Li's TV station used to be a cable TV channel, and if you want to watch it, you need to pay a fee, so the wireless TV station took advantage of the trend, and the ratings remained high, making Li's TV station completely helpless.

Zhou Liangshuyi probably felt that there was really no challenge, and she felt like looking around with her sword and looking for defeat alone, so she resolutely gave up the high salary and high job of TVB, and chose to join the newly established brilliant theater chain.

Selina Chow's defection caused quite a stir in Hong Kong's entertainment industry, and she also became the first high-level person hired by Xu Brothers Company from Sir Shao.

For a time, newspapers and magazines were all hyped with the headline "Xu Brothers declares war on Shaw Brothers".

Compared with the newspapers and media, the Xu Brothers Company and Shaw Brothers Company, both parties involved, were very calm and did not fight because of this.

The reason is that the current situation in the Hong Kong film industry is very delicate. Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, and Xu Brothers are the three pillars of strength. Among them, Shaw Brothers is the largest and strongest, but he is old, sick and troubled both internally and externally; Shi is the youngest, but his potential is infinite.

The combination of any two of the three is enough to defeat the other; and if any two of the three fight together, both will suffer, giving the other an opportunity to take advantage of.

Therefore, it is not unreasonable that the most stable figure is a triangle.

All three parties have the idea of ​​swallowing the other two parties, but they are afraid to act arbitrarily.

It also plunged the Hong Kong film industry into a strange calm.

Selina Chow officially took over as the manager of Brilliant Cinemas from the moment she cut the ribbon at Brilliant Cinemas.

As a theater manager, the main job is to be responsible for the promotion and distribution of movies, coordinate the movie release schedule, increase or decrease the number of movie theaters, and maximize the box office of the movie.

Therefore, this job is not easy at all, and requires a keen sense of the market and sophisticated data analysis capabilities.

……

With Zhou Liang Shuyi as the manager, Brilliant Cinemas officially started, gradually getting on the right track, Xu Guanwu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and settled down to prepare for his marriage.

During the more than half a month he was busy with the theater, Xu's father and Xu's mother have been busy preparing for the wedding.

Getting married in Hong Kong is also quite troublesome. Setting wedding cakes, posting wedding invitations, booking hotels, wedding photography, churches and honeymoon, all must be considered.

Whether Xu Guanwu was married for the first time in his previous life or in this life, he had no experience at all, so he was naturally somewhat curious.

Ever since he was busy with the theater business, he was finally free, and was immediately taken by the old couple to make clothes, take wedding photos, buy wedding rings, etc., every day was like a [-]-mile long march, tired as if Like a dead dog.

After half a month of intense preparations, the wedding ceremony was finally held on an auspicious day in June.

But now the Xu brothers are all well-known celebrities, so many celebrities came to congratulate the wedding scene, and at the same time, there were many reporters outside the church where the wedding was held.It made the wedding scene look like an Academy Award ceremony.

Xu Guanwu originally wanted to keep a low profile, but he didn't expect that so many people would be alarmed. Even film producers from Taiwan and Southeast Asia came to participate and offered gifts to celebrate.

……

At ten o'clock in the morning, the wedding was officially held.

Amidst the melodious music, Xu Guanwu stood under the stage, staring at the entrance with a smile.

I saw Zhao Yazhi walking slowly in a pure white wedding dress, accompanied by two bridesmaids.

The reason why it wasn't her parents was because the knot between Zhao Yazhi and her parents hadn't been resolved yet, so they were not invited to this grand wedding.

"You are so beautiful today." Xu Guanwu took Zhao Yazhi from the hand of the bridesmaid, and said with a soft smile.

Zhao Yazhi smiled sweetly, and the two stood together in front of the wedding stage.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are here today to attend the wedding of Mr. Xu Guanwu and Ms. Zhao Yazhi." The pastor presiding over the wedding smiled and recited his lines solemnly.

Xu Guanwu was not in the mood to listen to his ink marks at all, and now he was in ecstasy, his heart was beating violently, and his blood circulation was accelerating so that his throat felt dry.

"Mr. Xu, are you willing to marry Miss Zhao Yazhi? Are you willing to love her unreservedly and be loyal to her forever, whether in good times or bad times, rich or poor, healthy or sick, happy or sad? asked the pastor.

"I am willing." Xu Guanwu replied hoarsely.

"Miss Zhao, you..." the pastor continued to host.

"I am willing." Zhao Yazhi also replied seriously.

"Now please exchange the bride and groom to exchange rings." The pastor said.

Xu Guanwu immediately took the wedding ring from his younger brother Xu Guanjie. When the box was opened, the shining light of the diamond ring attracted countless eyes instantly.

"Wow, what a big diamond!" Someone exclaimed.

Xu Guanwu smiled proudly. To order this pigeon egg diamond ring, he spent more than 40 Hong Kong dollars, which is more expensive than buying a facade in Central.

Zhao Yazhi didn't expect Xu Guanwu to do what he said, and really bought himself a pigeon egg diamond ring, and couldn't help crying with joy.

After exchanging rings with each other, amidst the cheers of the crowd, the two kissed intimately.
