Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

The film slowly unfolds the story in such anticipation.

The first half of the story is almost always a word of forbearance. The male pig's feet played by Bruce Lee endures everything, which is brewing a wave of malice and blocking the hearts of the audience!

Slowly, as the villain's actions became more and more outrageous, it finally reached the point where Bruce Lee couldn't bear it anymore!

Bruce Lee finally made his move on the screen!

The sharp legs make the audience hooked!

At the same time, the arrogance that was blocked in the chest also became delightful with Bruce Lee's sharp whistling during the fight!

"It's so cool!"

"Bads deserve to be beaten to death like this!"

When Shi Zhijian listened to these vaguely cheerful voices, the corners of his mouth twitched up involuntarily.

Hong Kong movies have always followed the traditional route, and Shi Zhijian also didn't understand why Bruce Lee's first play "Big Brother Tangshan" was popular in Hong Kong at that time.

How ruthlessly suppressed before, how cool it is to explode later! Coupled with Bruce Lee's domineering "A-Da" sound, it creates an unparalleled exhilaration!

At this moment, Shao Daheng and others finally saw a little way out.

In particular, Shao Daheng felt very familiar with this trick. He immediately thought of Shaw Brothers' "Drunken Man", which was a box office hit. He also followed this "first restraint and then up" route. The only difference was Bruce Lee's unique name. Sound, and his sharp legs!

In a word, no matter how powerful "The Drunk Man" is, it is also an actor's trick, but it is real kung fu here!

Especially when shooting martial arts scenes, Bruce Lee specially asked the director to do a lot of close-ups of difficult movements, such as his volley kick in the final battle, and three-legged kicks, etc., which made the audience watch with enthusiasm!

While watching, I can't help but put myself into it, and I feel like I can do these things too, every move and every move is so real!

"Shi Zhijian really has a vision!" Shao Daheng couldn't help sighing when he saw this, "This Bruce Lee might be our Shaw Brothers rival in the future!"

Fang Yihua rarely heard Shao Daheng say such discouraged words, so he couldn't help but say, "Shi Zhijian is just gambling! Win or lose is yet to be seen!"

"No results?" Shao Daheng glanced at the audience's reaction, but saw that the audience were all focused on the screen, some with fists, some with sweat on their foreheads, and they looked more nervous than the protagonist.

"The results have come out! Hey!" Shao Daheng sighed.

...

When Bruce Lee finally used real kung fu to defeat the big BOSS, the audience burst into thunderous applause!

"Great!"

"awesome!"

Many male audience members even stood up and applauded wildly! It's as if they were in a group with Bruce Lee and won a huge victory!

Seeing that the movie was about to end, Kowloon Bus boss Lei Juekun, who was sitting with Shi Zhijian in the joint investment in Art City, breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the premiere of this play, he has been hanging his heart in his throat. In order to show his calmness, he sat calmly and didn't say hello to others, looking very low-key.

To be honest, Lei Juekun is also gambling this time!

Since Shi Zhijian found him to co-found Xinyicheng, Lei Juekun had no confidence. He knew that Shi Zhijian found himself because he owned the Kowloon Cinema, the future Golden Princess Cinema.

But Lei Juekun really has no confidence in re-founding a film company, nor does he have confidence in Bruce Lee who came back from Hollywood in the United States. Even when he first came into contact with Bruce Lee, he felt that Bruce Lee was vaguely "arrogant".

According to Lei Juekun, Shi Zhijian, rather than founding Xinyi City, might as well grab Jiahe and kick Liu Jianxiong and Zou Wenhuai away.

But Shi Zhijian didn't do this, Lei Juekun was very puzzled, and felt that Shi Zhijian was "soft-hearted", but how could he know that Shi Zhijian was planning a big plan.

If according to Lei Juekun's intention, Shi Zhijian could easily grab Jiahe, what would be the result? The Hong Kong film industry is still dominated by Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest!

The reason why there are so many talents in the Three Kingdoms competition is because the Three Kingdoms stand together, giving more choices to those strategists, generals and other talents!

The same is true of the Hong Kong film industry now. Instead of Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest fighting for hegemony, it is better to come to the Three Kingdoms to attract more talents to join different camps. Only in this way can the real Hong Kong film "a hundred flowers bloom"!

And this is Shi Zhijian's purpose.

Lei Juekun didn't know this, he only knew that since Shi Zhijian found him, he had to gamble! In addition to his extraordinary relationship with Shi Zhijian, there is also Shi Zhijian's dreaded identity! Members of the Legislative Council, this is not something you can easily offend!

After watching the movie screening now, Lei Juekun only felt his heart fall, and he felt like he made a right bet!

Such a low-cost movie was shot by Bruce Lee so distinctively! Looking at the audience's reaction, it is not only enthusiastic, but also unfinished. This is a good sign!

"Ajian, I've convinced you! You really know a hero!" Lei Juekun couldn't help giving Shi Zhijian a thumbs up, "This Bruce Lee is a talent!"

Shi Zhijian smiled and said, "It's not that I have good eyesight, it's that Boss Lei is lucky and dares to put the treasure on him!"

Lei Juekun pouted: "To tell the truth, don't laugh! In fact, I invested in Xincheng not because I was optimistic about him, but because I was optimistic about you! Besides, you are a member of the Legislative Council now, so I don't dare to offend you easily!"

Lei Juekun's words were half-truth, but Shi Zhijian laughed dumbly: "I'm not that scary, am I?"

"What do you think? You don't even know how powerful you are now!"

"Really?" Shi Zhijian pinched his chin. It seemed that this was the first time he thought of this question. He vaguely felt that many people looked at him differently. Take Chen Huimin and Dasha as an example. They are so serious and reserved. , I used to like to laugh and laugh in front of myself, either smoking or talking shit, but now I am more honest than a little girl.

"Clap clap clap..."

Just when Shi Zhijian was thinking about it, there was a warm applause in the screening room. The staff list was displayed on the big screen, but "Big Brother Tangshan" had already been played.

"Mr. Shi, congratulations to Xinyi City for its victory!"

"Mr. Shi, congratulations on the new film's big sale!"

"Mr. Shi, congratulations!"

Those VIPs stood up and congratulated Shi Zhijian.

In turn, the male pig's foot Bruce Lee over there, but no one cares!

Although he is the protagonist of the play, Shi Zhijian stole his limelight!

Fortunately, those media reporters who didn't have the opportunity to interview Shi Zhijian were more interested in him, and greeted him one after another: "Li Sheng, what do you expect from this drama?"

"Li Sheng, how long have you been learning real kung fu?"

Shao Daheng watched Shi Zhijian and Bruce Lee triumphantly, stood up with a long sigh, and left the theater accompanied by Fang Yihua.

Over there, Liu Jianxiong and Zou Wenhuai also quietly left in jealousy and hatred.

Dai Fengni and Li Xuexuan took one last look at Shi Zhijian, who was surrounded by VIPs to congratulate, and left with different expressions.

...

Inside the Hong Kong "Oriental Daily" newspaper.

President Lu Yawen and Vice President Ni Frame are waiting in front of the phone for news.

"Yawn! The movie should be over, right? It's so boring, I can't go to the premiere, I can only wait for news with you here!" Ni Jiao yawned boredly.

Not far away, his sister Ni Shu was still burying herself in writing editorial reviews, and Ni Jiao said again: "Little sister, don't be so diligent, and President Lu didn't say that he would add labor to you!"

Ni Shu looked up at the old brother and scoffed at his "provocation".

Who doesn't know that the salary here is three times that of "Ming Pao", and only a greedy guy like Ni Jiao will keep asking for "additional labor". Now as a boss, he has already "added nothing" in terms of labor. If he wants to get more salary, the only way to go is to rebel.

But Ni Jiao insists that he belongs to the type of "loving fragrance and cherishing jade", and President Lu Yawen is a beautiful woman, so he is even more reluctant to rebel against her!

"Cough cough, don't ignore me, I'm talking to you, can you give me some reaction first?" Ni Jiao saw that he made a complaint, and what he got was just a blank eye from his own sister, and Lu Yawen's indifference. Couldn't help being a little embarrassed.

"Hey, you can see that you are not interested in the topic I mentioned just now, so I will change the topic you are interested in -- I know a lot of secrets about Liangzaijian, do you want to hear it? "

Pretty boy is Shi Zhijian.

The two girls pretended to keep busy, but their ears perked up.

Ni Frame could see clearly and despised these two girls for deliberately pretending to be innocent.

"As you all know, Liangzaijian and I are good friends. We even drink alcohol together, take a bath together! Cough cough! So I know a lot of his secrets, do you want to know? Don't be shy, I can tell Yours!"

"Who wants to inquire about this! Hurry up and work!" Lu Yawen scolded.

"Yeah! If you're in a hurry, write an editorial for me---- Besides, Mr. Shi has some secrets, are you blowing water?" Ni Shu glared at his brother.

"Che, are you still using the aggressive method on me?" Ni Fang was about to break the news, when the bell rang and the phone rang.

The reporter sent by the newspaper called and reported to Lu Yawen and the others: "President Lu, the atmosphere at the premiere is very lively, and this drama in Xinyicheng may explode! I will fax some live pictures to you now! It will definitely be on the front page tomorrow!"

Lu Yawen asked a few more specific questions, then hung up the phone, then looked at Ni Jiao and Ni Shu and said, "Now, we are busy!"

Ni Jiao grinds his fists: "I knew it! I knew this drama would be a hit! Also, I am the screenwriter of Xinyicheng's next "Jingwumen"! Just watch it, my name is Ni Jiao. To appear on the big screen!"

It's no wonder that Ni Jiao is so happy, because Shi Zhijian asked Ni Jiao to direct the fight scene before the premiere tonight.

In addition, Shi Zhijian also asked Ni Jiao to write the script for "Jingwumen", which also gave Ni Jiao a place to display his talents!

In the last time and space, in fact, the theatrical elements such as "Jingwumen" and Chen Zhen were all created by Ni Jiao, and Shi Zhijian is just "returning to the original owner". Shi Zhijian is such a confidant! I can't wait to express my gratitude to Shi Zhijian!

Just when Ni Jiao was working hard to create the script of "Jingwumen", and Lu Yawen and Ni Shu helped to write a film review for "Tangshan Brother", Shi Zhijian made the next release plan for the play!

To be precise, it is "Hunger Marketing"!

...

According to the traditional operation of this era, after the trial screening is over, the film will be arranged according to the trial screening effect, and it will be screened in Hong Kong.

Shi Zhijian believes that the topic of this play will be enough to whet the audience's appetite within three days! What's more, there are those entertainment media that will add fuel to the flames.

Facts have proved that Shi Zhijian's guess was correct.

"The premiere was ahead of its time, and the stars gathered! It's exciting!"

"Bruce Bruce really kicked the 'Sick Man of East Asia'! Qi Xiaofu took turns performing shocking performances!"

"Shi Zhijian's song "Descendants of the Dragon" brought tears to our eyes! Luo Wen sang domineeringly, shouting that we are all descendants of the dragon!"

In addition to the "Oriental Daily" controlled by the Shinhwa Group, which began to exaggerate the premiere and reported on it, other media in Hong Kong could not sit still. What "Ming Pao", "Sing Tao Daily~www.readwn.com~ Even Guilao's "The Tiger" began to publish the grand premiere of "Tangshan Big Brother".

Even the reporters who were racking their brains to sneak into the premiere even described the grandness, shock, and moving of the entire premiere with brilliant brushwork!

Those reporters who didn’t have the chance to go in directly started to make up for this situation, combining the reports of the “Oriental Daily” with the reports of other reporters, making up for it, adding oil and vinegar, and finally concocting their own “world-shattering masterpiece”. ", in a word, the premiere was awesome!

Of course, in addition to these praise voices, there are also some bad voices.

For example, the "Southern Weekly" controlled by Shaw Brothers published a headline on the front page: "Kung Fu movie is shoddy, punching and kicking monkey drama!"

The author of the article directly pointed the finger at this drama, which is low-cost. Both the scene and the storyline are very thin. The most important thing is that he thinks that Bruce Lee's constant roaring during the fight is "grandfather"!

In his words: "When you fight, you keep making screeching noises. Is this boosting morale, or is it grandstanding, relying on tricks to please the audience?"

In addition to Shaw's "Southern Weekly", "Entertainment Times", the largest gossip magazine in Hong Kong, also criticized the play.

This time, the target person they targeted was Shi Zhijian. Of course, because of Shi Zhijian's special status, they would never dare to call him by his first name in the newspapers, but just called him a "big man"!

"In today's movie world, morals are deteriorating! In order to please a certain big man, countless celebrities and gentlemen kneel down together! A low-cost movie has been praised as a super blockbuster! I have seen how outrageous the praise is, and it turns out that this is a movie. Bad movie! The box office will prove everything!"

And the facts that follow...

The box office really proves it all!
