Chapter 197 Famous Shocking Charity Performance (The third update is coming)

For the four Xu Guanwen brothers, Wang Xiaohu has a deep impression in his mind, but those impressions are limited to the characters of the four Xu brothers on the screen. Wang Xiaohu has little memory of what the four of them do in reality and how they look like. nothing.

He only knew that the Hui Brothers were good at comedies. Xu's comedy was the only genre that could compete with the Kung Fu films of Jackie Chan, Lau Ka Leung, and Sammo Hung at that time. Xu Guanwen's films repeatedly achieved box office miracles. It is closely related to the sense of identity of Hong Kong citizens. The laughter and tears of the small characters in Xu's comedies are full of the atmosphere and texture of the times, which is why they have long dominated the box office record list.

Moreover, when "Fist of Fury" was released last year, although the box office of "The Great Warlord" filmed by Shaw's great director Li Hanxiang was not as good as that of "Fist of Fury" he collaborated with Bruce Lee, it was also a great success and became the top ten blockbuster discourse film of the year ( Why not the Big Three, because there was Wang Xiaohu in 72.) The film is commendable for discovering Xu Guanwen, who will be called the No. [-] comedian in Xiangjiang in the future.

"Uh, so it's Brother Wen, hello, hello!" After hearing Bruce Lee's introduction, Wang Xiaohu immediately held Xu Guanwen's hand tightly and said, "Sorry, it's my first time coming to TVB, so I'm not familiar with the situation here. It's very familiar, and Brother Wen laughed."

Xu Guanwen said with a smile: "Ah Hu, you are a famous big shot in our Shaw Brothers. You don't know that directors Zhang, Li, and Hu often study the films you collaborated with Xiaolong, and they speak highly of you. Our Shaw Brothers There are also many fans of you." After finishing speaking, he immediately took a record book: "Ah Hu, quickly leave your name in this record book, and you need to write more copies. My three brothers also have a share, and they also have copies. Your fans!"

"The other three brothers?" Wang Xiaohu was taken aback for a moment, and immediately the figure of Xu Guanjie appeared in his mind, that is, the popular singer known as the revival of Cantonese songs by the outside world. Wang Xiaohu's hand trembled when he thought of these super fans. , signed the four pieces of paper in one go, then handed the pen back and said: "Tonight is my first time on "Happy Tonight", and Brother Wen needs to remind me of some things I don't understand."

"It's natural." Xu Guanwen put the notebook away, and said to Wang Xiaohu: "Shall I introduce some friends to you, some of them are also your fans."

Wang Xiaohu nodded and smiled, "It's better this way, brother Wen."

Xu Guanwen said: "What's the trouble, we always need to communicate more in this circle."

Although Wang Xiaohu is not very optimistic about Run Run Shaw's "dictatorship", you cannot deny the great contributions that Run Run Shaw has made to the Chinese film and television industry, and Run Run Shaw is also a philanthropist. Shaw's school has far-reaching influence, and there are many future big names in the film and television industry under its umbrella. It is naturally a great thing to have the opportunity to meet and get acquainted with them.

Xu Guanwen first led Wang Xiaohu to the backstage to introduce to several hosts. There were as many as eight or nine hosts of "Happy Tonight" who hosted the disaster relief charity performance. It was Shen Dianxia, ​​the fat sister. After seeing Wang Xiaohu, she immediately came over happily and said, "Wow, I knew a long time ago that you would come to the show, Ah Hu. I was so excited that I didn't sleep well last night."

"Hi Sister Fat, haha." Wang Xiaohu's intimacy towards Shen Dianxia is very natural, and Shen Dianxia left a deep impression on him. Shen Dianxia was nicknamed "Fatty" because of her unusually plump figure, optimistic and laughing in front of people. "Fat", "Pistachio", and his appearance is also famous for his hairstyle that has remained unchanged over the years, and he often wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses with slightly upward points.She is humorous and relaxed, and has her own style, making her a pillar of TVB's long-lived variety show "Happy Tonight".In particular, she has made guest appearances in many Hong Kong films, and has also hosted many variety shows with Zeng Zhiwei. She can be regarded as a rare supporting actor in the Hong Kong film industry.It's just that Wang Xiaohu feels a little sorry for this supporting actor in the film industry who bid farewell to him in 2006 because of a serious illness.

The other hosts, He Shouxin, Liu Jiajie, Tan Bingwen, and Hu Zhangzhao, were all Wang Xiaohu met for the first time, and they just greeted them politely.

"Fat sister, please help me to see tonight's program schedule, what time will I appear on stage?" Wang Xiaohu said softly to Shen Dianxia.Shen Dianxia looked down at the program schedule and said, "Ah Hu, there are quite a few celebrities invited tonight, and there are not a few people participating in the performance. Maybe the program time will be relatively long. You know this is the first disaster relief charity performance in Hong Kong. "Happy Tonight" doesn't have much experience here. Each star can only perform three to four shows, so you should be the last one when you appear on the stage. Oh, I found it. You appeared after Bruce Lee, which is charity This is the last show before the auction."

"Uh, I'm the last one!" Wang Xiaohu quietly wiped off his sweat, wondering how this was arranged, "Also, everyone will perform three to four shows?"

Shen Dianxia nodded and said, "That's right, I'm afraid that the enthusiasm of the audience is not high, so I need to prepare a few more, don't tell me you only prepared one!"

"Yeah, I only prepared one." Wang Xiaohu thought that since Shao Brothers arranged for Bruce Lee to be the finale, he would be a foil at most. How could he know that now everyone has to prepare three or four programs, which is similar to the disaster relief that he saw in his previous life? There is a big gap in charity performances!But thinking about it, since this is the first time, there must be some lack of experience, and I immediately felt relieved. Three or four programs, hey, it’s a big deal to perform a few previous Peking Opera projects with Qi Xiaofu. I don’t know if Hong Jinbao and the others still remember it. Anyway, when I was reborn, Yuanhu's memory was completely erased, so I don't know anything about Beijing opera. "If you can't do it, perform a section of Wing Chun. Well, anyway, it's a show to raise money."

Afterwards, Xu Guanwen introduced to Wang Xiaohu several well-known celebrities in Hong Kong's performance circles at that time, such as Mai Bingrong, Phoenix Girl, Ren Jianhui, Bai Xuexian and others. However, Wang Xiaohu was not very interested in these people. None of those celebrities appeared in the TVB "Happy Tonight" studio.In fact, it can’t be said that, at least Chen Baozhu, the head of the Shaw Brothers, participated. However, Wang Xiaohu was not very familiar with her, so he lost interest in continuing to make friends. The exchange of personnel, perhaps to him those people are celebrities.

"What kind of tricks are the Shaw Brothers playing? The Five Tigers of the family will not send out to shake the scene. Although you have invited a lot of celebrities, they are not the dish that I want!" Wang Xiaohu sat down depressed and looked at the whole room. decorations.

The interior setting of the entire "Happy Tonight" is very simple. On the far left is a set with a person writing "Wireless TV Fundraising and Disaster Relief Charity Performance Conference".

The stage in the middle is extraordinarily spacious, and the main setting is modeled after Roman stone pillars. Is this the studio hall in the 70s?Wang Xiaohu was so disappointed!Moreover, Wang Xiaohu also noticed that there was no lifting tool for photography and shooting. Several photographers were carrying cameras in front of them and shooting, and some even stood on ladders to switch between lifting and lowering the lens.Seeing these things made Wang Xiaohu somewhat feel a little bit superior, after all, only he owns the shooting and lifting tools at present.

At around [-]:[-] in the evening, the number of people in the studio began to increase. Wang Xiaohu did not meet any familiar faces in the crowd. They should be the rich and famous in Hong Kong, but it is impossible for the richest man like Li Ka-shing to appear in this shabby place. under the occasion.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Xu Guanwen, wearing a gray and white suit, walked to the set of the "TVB Fundraising and Disaster Relief Charity Performance Conference" and said: "Dear audience, in order to help the victims of the natural disaster in Hong Kong, the Hong Kong Television Broadcasting Corporation organized The charitable fundraiser has officially started."

The audience immediately responded with warm applause, and the opening music surprised Wang Xiaohu. It was the background music he had prepared for a charity performance in front of the Kowloon Hotel a few days ago. (I kept listening to this chapter of "He is a Pirate") "Hey, did you make a mistake? You didn't notify me in advance when you adopted my music. No matter how big the Shaw Brothers is, they must pay attention to copyright or something?"

While Wang Xiaohu was slandering, Xu Guanwen walked to the middle of the stage and said: "Every audience, before the official performance, please allow me to express my most sincere thanks to Mr. Wang Xiaohu, the founder of the Hong Kong Dragon and Tiger Martial Artists Union on behalf of all citizens! "After speaking, he really bowed deeply, and his direction was the audience where Wang Xiaohu was sitting.

"Eh? Which song is this?" All the audience's eyes were focused on Wang Xiaohu, and he stood up slowly in confusion. At this time, Xu Guanwen had already started to say on the stage: "Everyone applauds to welcome Mr. Wang Xiaohu to come on stage Say a few words, okay?"

The audience applauded immediately, and Wang Xiaohu could only walk on the stage seeing this.Xu Guanwen said with a smile: "Xiao Hu, you have made contributions to Hong Kong's June [-] floods in recent days. Everyone has seen it. I want to know why you did this. I believe many audiences present also want to know. .”

Wang Xiaohu smiled and said: "Actually, I don't have any special ideas for doing this, it's just a spontaneous sense of mission. As a public artist, I should stand up at this moment. When I first mentioned this plan, I got Mr. The support of many people in the Tiger Martial Arts Union gave me more confidence to do a good job in this public welfare activity. In fact, what I want to say is that without the help of those brothers in the union, we would not be able to achieve today's achievements. They are the hardest people. Thank you." After finishing speaking, Wang Xiaohu handed the 60 Hong Kong dollar check in his coat pocket to Xu Guanwen and said, "Brother Wen, this is a donation from all members of our trade union, please keep it."

Xu Guanwen took it over and took a look, and immediately exclaimed in surprise: "Wow~~~ It's a total of 60 Hong Kong dollars, plus the 20 Hong Kong dollars handed over to the Red Cross by the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Union, they raised a total of 80 Hong Kong dollars. What a great thing!"
