Shen rushed to Great Wall Film Company and parked the car. After walking for a few steps, a car drove over. He looked at the license plate and recognized it as Xia Meng's car. So he stopped and stood by the side of the road waiting.

In the entertainment industry, there are many handsome men and beautiful women, with only appearance and no temperament. No matter how much money you pay to support them, they will not become celebrities. Just like a vase made of a machine, even if you put gold and jade on it, they will not become works of art.

With both appearance and temperament, you can become a big star. If you want to go further and become a superstar who inverts all living beings, in addition to temperament, you must also have aura.

The aura sounds mysterious, but it is actually very simple - men can make people around them feel inferior, while women can make people around them feel ashamed.

The man is like Bruce Lee, and his skill makes everyone feel inferior. As for the woman, Chen Chong has only seen one, that is Xia Meng.

Based on his experience of watching movies in his previous life, Brigitte Lin is one of the most aurasy actresses in the Chinese film industry. As long as she exists, most actresses will be overshadowed whether it is a movie or a party.

However, at the last time at the celebration banquet in Taipei, there were too many people who needed social engagements. Brigitte Lin was at the lowest point in his life, hiding in the corner, the light was dim, and Shen Chong saw him in a hurry, and he didn't feel much.

Although Xia Meng is middle-aged, her quiet and elegant aura comes from the inside and overflows. Her words and deeds make people feel like spring breeze. After several contacts with her, Chen Chong felt a pity that she was born at the wrong time. Her acting career was the most beautiful time, which happened to be the most chaotic era in China. If she was born in her late years, she would definitely become a world-class movie star.

If he had traveled through time for twenty years earlier, he would have been in love with Jin Yong...

Xia Meng walked over with a beige women's bag, and interrupted Chen Chong's myth: "Hello, Mr. Chen."

"Sister Xia Meng, it's early." Chen Chong came back to his senses and walked side by side towards Fu Qi's office, chatting while walking: "Have Fang Yuping's movie started filming?"

"There has been turned on last week." Xia Meng said with a smile: "To put it, I really have to thank Mr. Chen for his help, otherwise I am still worried about how to set up a company."

"Where, Sister Xia Meng is polite." Chen Chong smiled and said, "I have a share in Blue Bird Company, I just help myself."

Xia Meng’s Blue Bird Film Company is not simple in its origin.

In the 1950s and 1960s, the pay of Hong Kong movie stars was still very high compared to ordinary people. For example, Feng Baobao's movie paid up to RU0 Hong Kong dollars, but Great Wall Film Company is state-owned. In other words, it is just a big pot of rice. Although Xia Meng is famous in Southeast Asia, she can only get the salary of actors rather than stars, and her income is not much. Moreover, it is said that in the 1960s, Great Wall Company was affected by the mainland and fell into trouble, and then lent Xia Meng to other companies to film, then get her salary and pay employees.

In 2019, Xia Meng and other employees of left-wing film companies were recalled to the mainland for ideological education and transformation. In Guangzhou, she met the famous Cantonese opera artist Red Line Girl who was criticized and criticized. She was deeply touched. After returning to Hong Kong, the last movie she filmed moved to Canada before it was released, and escaped.

In 1979, after Liao Chengzhi's banquet, Xia Meng wanted to return to the film industry, but lacked funds, so the film company never started.

After Chen Chong saw Xia Meng, he kept thinking about how to invest money without any trace and invest in Qingniao Film Company. However, before he could think of the name, Xia Meng found the starting capital.

During the National Day in October, Ho Ying-tung went to Beijing to attend the establishment ceremony of CITIC Company. He donated a sum of money to Xinhua News Agency on the grounds of developing cultural undertakings. Xinhua News Agency is a government agency and cannot accept donations, so he transferred the money to Xia Meng, who attended the Cultural Congress.

In 1979, the mainland was eager for any funds. The fatty meat that anyone wanted to eat was finally made for Xia Meng from Hong Kong, which shows her popularity and connections in the mainland.

A summer dream is worth investing in. Now it has something to do with Ho Ying-tung and Xinhua News Agency. How can I let it go...

Xia Meng has been away from the film industry for more than ten years. The staff of that year have long been old and dispersed. She has funds but no manpower. After the Cultural Congress ended, Chen Chong immediately helped her in time. Not only did he draw more than a dozen people from Oriental Charm to help, but he also gave Fang Yuping's almost-prepared movie to her as a startup work.

It is hard to refuse the affection. When Chen Chong lived in a Beijing Hotel, he met Ho Ying-tung several times. After some trouble, Chen Chong finally became a shareholder of Blue Bird Film Company, but he occupied not much, only 30%.

First, although Ho Ying-tung's money was donated, Xia Meng insisted on reserveing ​​shares for him and planned to pay it back in the future; second, Chen Chong was interested in Xia Meng and the interpersonal resources behind her. As for Bluebird Film Company, it was just a bond, and there was no need to occupy the majority.

Talked and laughed with Xia Meng, and soon walked to Fu Qi's office, but unexpectedly he was idle. The clerk who stayed in the office said that Fu Qi took the tour group to the set to watch the post-production of "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" early in the morning.

In July, the photo of Deng Gong and crew members taking a photo in Huangshan was exclusively published in "The Movie Age", "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" became the focus of attention at home and abroad. It is reasonable for mainland tour groups to see it.

As soon as I walked into the door of the set, Chen Chong saw more than 20 people, divided into several piles, standing or squatting, some surrounding equipment, and pointing and commenting.

"Mr. Chen?" A middle-aged man happened to walk from inside and outside. When he saw Chen Chong, he stepped forward to shake hands and said, "Hello, Mr. Chen, we're meeting again."

"Oh, it's Section Chief Zhou, hello." After seeing his face clearly, Chen Chong was stunned for a moment, quickly shook hands with him, and then introduced him: "Secretary Zhou, let me introduce you to you. This is Xia Meng, Sister Xia Meng, this is CCTV's technical Guyu, Zhou Chunrong, Section Chief Zhou Chunrong

"Hello, Section Chief Zhou."

"Miss Xia Meng, hello, I am your movie fan..." Zhou Chunrong was over forty years old and had a calm temperament. Chen Chong stood aside. From the side, his face turned a little red. He couldn't help but sigh at Xia Meng's charm.

After taking a look at the set and seeing that others had not noticed him yet, Chen Chong asked with a smile: "Secretary Zhou, have you changed your career to make a movie? Which movie factory did you go to?"

"No." Zhou Chunrong touched his hair and his sideburns and said with a smile: "Master Wang and I came to Hong Kong to purchase a batch of equipment, and we happened to go along with the comrades from the Film Bureau, so we came together."

Chen Chong was shocked when he heard this.

CCTV was restructured by Beijing TV in 1978. Until now, there is no official director. There are only five deputy directors. The director Wang mentioned by Zhou Chunrong is Wang Feng, the deputy director in charge of career construction, administrative management and technical work. Shen Chong was in Beijing and had several dealings and donated broadcasting equipment. The memorandum of the memorandum of donating the recording and broadcasting equipment was signed with him.

"You Master Wang is here too?" Chen Chong swept the set again and asked, "Why didn't you see him?"

Zhou Chunrong secretly glanced at Xia Meng and said, "Master Wang had something to do, so he went to the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency."

Chen Chong said oh, and said, "Secretary Zhou, you are so indifferent. You don't even inform me in advance when you come to Hong Kong. Why, do you look down on me?"

"Where, where." Zhou Chunrong rubbed his hands and quickly explained: "We are here to public. Mr. Chen has many people to do, so it is not easy to disturb him.

"Sister Xia Meng, please see if I'm idle every day?" Chen Chong said enthusiastically with a smile: "Let's do it, wait until you finish your business, call me, I'll welcome you, and go out for a walk. Although Hong Kong is not as magnificent as Beijing, the sea view is still worth seeing."

Xia Meng was on the side, seeing Chen Chong being young, but he was old-fashioned. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Yes, Section Chief Zhou, you came from afar. When you arrive in Hong Kong, you should also let Mr. Chen have the best of his landlords. He is inseparable."

"Yeah, yeah..."

Under Xia Meng's aura, Zhou Chunrong was at a loss and was a little incoherent.

Fortunately, at this time, the others on the set discovered the arrival of Chen Chong and Xia Meng, and came over to say hello to resolve his embarrassment.

Chen Chong was in Beijing, traveling around, making friends everywhere, and getting familiar with many mainland filmmakers. He knew at least half of the members of the visiting tour group. For a moment, his handshakes were numb...

This tour group was actually made up by two teams. Some were staff members of various departments of the Film Bureau. They came to Hong Kong for inspection. The other part was from Beijing Film Studio and Bayi Film Studio. For them, the inspection was a side job, and the main purpose was to receive photography equipment donated by Shen Chong.

Chen Chong donated this time with pauavI's camera. The business strategy of pauavI's company is to rent it only but not sell it, so it is a donation, but it only requires guarantees and rent.

Deng visited the United States, especially after the counterattack against Vietnam, relations between the two countries heated up rapidly, and major American companies were eyeing the mainland market, so pauavI was no exception. As soon as Shen Chong contacted them, pauavI immediately provided six cameras with an extremely generous rental price, with a lease period of ten years.

If these six machines were replaced by Alai's products of the same grade, they were worth more than 5 million US dollars. If they rented them, the total rent for ten years was only more than 1 million US dollars. Shen Chong's current financial resources are not rich enough. It hurts a little to get $5 million at once. If you pay more than 1 million in ten years, it will be drizzling...

The head of the visiting group was a deputy director of the Film Bureau. Although he was of high level, Chen Chong didn't care much. The Film Bureau was directly under the Ministry of Culture. The deputy director was basically soy sauce and had no say. What he attached most was Wang Yang, the director of the Beijing Film Studio.

Wang Yang has been the factory director for many years, and has made Beijing Film Studio the largest factory in the mainland from scratch, from childhood to adulthood. He is highly respected and has a lot of students all over the world. His status in the mainland film industry is no less than that of Chen Bo, the director of the Film Bureau.

In early 1979, he wrote a letter to the Secretariat of the Central Committee, publicly questioning the film policy of unified purchase and sale, which caused great response. Therefore, Chen Chong regarded him as a natural ally. When he was in Beijing, he came to him many times to discuss film policy issues with him. By the end of the Cultural Congress, the two had become friends.

This is also the reason why Wang Yang came to receive photography equipment himself - he was bewitched by Chen Chong and wanted to come to Hong Kong to inspect the film market and the accounting system. Otherwise, with his position and status, he would not have to come to Hong Kong from a long distance with his white hair. You should know that even a young man like Chen Chong would not be able to withstand the green train in 1979.
