The Miss Oriental beauty pageant is already in its third session. Compared with Miss Hong Kong, which has been held for more than ten years, its background may be lacking, but its popularity is not lower than Miss Hong Kong.
Of the Hong Kong sisters in the past few years, only one, Zhang Manyu, has developed the best. The others are short-lived and disappear. The only few can only work as hosts on wireless stations and play supporting roles in TV series.
Even Gao Lihong, who is in the limelight, has not heard much news since last year. This year she left TVB and joined Golden Harvest Pictures, and she only played a small role in Hong Jinbao's movie.
On the other hand, Miss Oriental is much more powerful. Although the first champion Lizhi finished filming a movie and went to study abroad, the runner-up Qiu Huixin is already the leading actress of Phoenix TV. The second champion Pan Huixian is working on Macau Satellite TV.
Popular host and runner-up Ye Yuqing has also become a quasi-A-list actress in both film and television.
At least in terms of exposure, Miss Oriental is already better.
In early July, the finals of the third Miss Oriental Beauty Pageant kicked off at the Taiping Theater.
Guests, judges, reporters, celebrities, and the audience came to the venue one after another. Kang Jianfei appeared at the finals holding He Chaoqiong's hand, which immediately attracted a lot of attention.
Kang Jianfei attends fewer and fewer public events, and before each appearance, reporters are most interested in guessing who Kang Jianfei's female companion is.
Since Lin Qingxia has not shown up for a long time, some people guessed that Kang Jianfei's female companion tonight is Zhao Yazhi, and some people guessed that it is Zhong Chuhong, because both of them have participated in beauty pageants before.
But after guessing, no one guessed that He Chaoqiong would appear.
"Who is the woman next to Kang Jianfei?"
"Are you an entertainment reporter? Even the daughter of the He family doesn't know about it."
"Which He family?"
"He Chaoqiong, the gambling king of Macau, also filmed a TV series on TVB before."
"Oh, it turns out it's her. She seems a little fatter than before. She turns out to be very thin."
"Isn't Kang Jianfei dating He Chaoqiong?"
"possible!"
"..."
Photojournalists focused their cameras on Kang Jianfei and He Chaoqiong. The two appeared hand in hand at the Dongjie finals. Regardless of whether they are actually in love or not, their news value is far beyond ordinary celebrity scandals.
Kang Jianfei finally sat on the jury this time. In addition to him and He Chaoqiong, the final judges include Li Hanxiang, director of the still-showing "Tongzhi Zhongxing", and Hong Kong music talent and salty man Huang Zhan, who moved to Hong Kong less than ten years ago
Huang Anyuan, the leader of the Chinese Orchestra, Wang Minchao, the second son of the Wang family of the Zhonghua Shipyard, and so on.
Among this year's final judges, only He Chaoqiong is a woman, and the others are all men.
Ordinary viewers may not be able to see the selection of judges in the final, but people with a slightly broader vision can easily see the essence.
Huang Zhan aside, this guy is here to increase the topic and entertainment of the finals. The same is true for several other judges.
Li Hanxiang, Huang Anyuan and Wang Minchao have other secrets. Li Hanxiang is now fully moving to the mainland, but Huang Anyuan is a top student at the China Conservatory of Music and a native of Chongqing. And Wang Minchao's family's Zhonghua Shipyard, there are some
The name is Dongfanghong Shipyard. These three people are ideologically left-leaning, although they will not admit it. For example, Huang Anyuan went to Taipei to perform three years ago.
After the competition emcee warmed up the scene, Miss Oriental's contestants appeared one by one in the opening dance.
On the 12th, Qiu Yueqing was very popular before the finals. She was sure to win the "Miss Heartthrob" award voted by the audience. She was unanimously praised by all the judges as soon as she appeared.
Until the final question and answer session, Qiu Yueqing's performance was extremely impressive. Basically, there was no suspense about winning the championship.
On the other hand, Kang Jianfei was very optimistic about Zhou Haimei, but her performance was a bit poor. During the evening show, she almost fell down when she stumbled. After she stood up straight, she actually stuck out her tongue towards the audience.
Zhou Haimei also did not perform well during the question and answer session. He was so nervous that he lost his voice at one point and took more than ten seconds to react before he managed to answer the question.
At this moment, Kang Jianfei, who had been silent until now, suddenly asked: "Miss Zhou, I want to ask you an additional question."
Kang Jianfei's unexpected question surprised the other judges, and they all turned to look at him.
Huang Zhan said with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Kang is particularly fond of contestant No. 15."
Zhou Haimei was not yet 20 years old and had never seen any big scenes. At this time, Kang Jianfei's additional question made her even more nervous, and she said with a trembling voice: "Excuse me."
Everyone was looking forward to Kang Jianfei asking some outrageous questions. The result was very disappointing. Kang Jianfei asked: "Is there something wrong with your eyes? Why do you keep blinking as if you have allergies?"
Zhou Haimei was so nervous that he blinked again and answered with force, "I have myopia. I'm not used to wearing contact lenses."
Kang Jianfei asked again: "Then do you know that you have no hope of getting any rankings or awards this time?"
Zhou Haimei nodded sadly and said, "I know."
Kang Jianfei suddenly said again: "But I am very optimistic about your development potential and hope you can join Oriental Entertainment Company."
Zhou Haimei was like a death row prisoner who suddenly heard the news of his acquittal and asked in disbelief: "Really?"
Kang Jianfei smiled and nodded: "Really."
Kang Jianfei's words turned out to be unexpected, and it was beyond everyone's expectation. The other contestants all looked at Zhou Haimei with envy and jealousy, even Qiu Yueqing, who had the highest voice for winning the championship. With Kang Jianfei's approval, Zhou Haimei would be better in acting in the future.
The development of the industry has huge advantages, which is far more rewarding than the title of Miss Oriental Champion.
…
"Are you very interested in that Zhou Haimei?" He Chaoqiong asked with jealousy. Of course she knew that Kang Jianfei had another woman, but if he praised another woman in front of her, how could this not offend He Chaoqiong?
Kang Jianfei hugged He Chaoqiong and said with a smile: "I just think that girl is very suitable for filming. She has potential, but she didn't show it."
He Chaoqiong asked curiously: "Then how did you see that she has potential?"
"Don't forget, I'm a director, and I rarely misjudge people." Kang Jianfei said with great confidence.
Needless to say, on the second day of the Miss Oriental finals, the entertainment pages of major newspapers not only reported on the first, second and third place winners, but also the young Zhou Haimei became the focus of attention.
Radio and Television Building, in the chairman's office.
Shao Yifu shook his head and sighed: "The overall quality of this year's Miss Hong Kong contestants is worrying."
No wonder Shao Yifu lamented, because the prizes set up by Miss Oriental are generous and the development prospects in the film and television industry are also very good, so beauties who are confident in their appearance choose to participate in the Miss Oriental beauty pageant.
The quality of Miss Hong Kong last year was not very good, and some abuse scandals broke out. The quality of this year's Miss Hong Kong is even worse.
The so-called abuse scandal is that after the Miss Hong Kong finals, the top-ranked beauty pageants must perform their duties as Miss Hong Kong according to the contract, such as participating in various beauty pageants abroad, attending various commercial and charity activities, etc.
As a result, last year's Miss Hong Kong runner-up returned to Hong Kong after participating in Miss Universe. In an interview with "Ming Pao Weekly", she frankly expressed her grievances, saying how hard and tiring she was competing overseas and that she was not allowed to eat until she had practiced well in rehearsals.
I feel so hungry after a day of hunger.
This report caused quite a stir last year, resulting in fewer applicants for Miss Hong Kong this year. Most beauties chose to participate in Miss Oriental, after all, there are no overseas activities here.
However, Fang Yihua was dissatisfied with Kang Jianfei's support of Zhou Haimei in the finals, and said disdainfully: "Kang Jianfei will do anything to stir up buzz."
Shao Yifu attaches great importance to the Miss Hong Kong pageant. He said: "Don't worry about the hype on the other side. First think about how to increase the appeal of Miss Hong Kong. If this continues, no one will sign up next year."
"Let's increase the prize money for the top three." Fang Yihua said heartily. Her business philosophy was to be jealous and stingy. "At worst, I can buy Miss Oriental's registration list next year, and if I find good contestants, I will directly
Cut off the beard.”
Shao Yifu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "It will have a bad impact if this kind of thing spreads."
The reason why Shao Yifu disagrees is not because he is too upright, but because Shao Yifu thinks that the style of Miss Hong Kong is higher than that of Sister Dong. If it is rumored that Miss Hong Kong is a contestant who beats Sister Hu Dong, then the entire Miss Hong Kong competition will be lost.
Fang Yihua said: "I will keep it confidential."
Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua were discussing countermeasures. This year's Dongjie champion Qiu Yueqing and Kang Jianfei selected Zhou Haimei, who has great glory.
Immediately afterwards, Oriental Television Production Company announced that it will soon start filming the TV series "Pink Lady" adapted from the popular comic book of the same name.
Among the major heroines, Mao Shunyun plays the role of a marriage madam, last year's East Sister runner-up Ye Yuqing plays the heartthrob, this year's East Sister champion Qiu Yueqing plays the role of a tomboy, and Zhou Haimei, who is favored by Kang Jianfei, also got the role of Hamei.
As for actors, Lai Lai, who made his debut hosting an entertainment program, was selected by Kang Jianfei to play Prince Charming. Sun Xing, who joined Oriental Entertainment a few months ago, played the role of the sex landlord. Yin Tianzhao and Luo Dahua played Bai Yutang and Romeo respectively.
Since "Pink Lady" was serialized in "King of Paintings" last year, its fashionable style that is close to life has quickly stood out from a bunch of violent comics and gathered a large number of loyal readers.
When they heard that it was actually going to be made into a live-action TV series, comic book fans cheered for joy, and it was reported by various media even before the TV was turned on.
When Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua heard the news, they became increasingly depressed. This year's Miss Hong Kong was completely overshadowed by Sister Dong.
Fortunately, this year's Miss Hong Kong has Wu Wanfang. Although this beauty is only the runner-up, she is far more eye-catching than the champion. Since the Mexico Football World Cup will be held just a few days after the Miss Hong Kong finals, Wu Wanfang was promoted by TVB to be the World Cup ambassador. Wu Wanfang was inexplicably dismissed.
It became popular, and the results were better than the planners expected.
Later, Wu Wanfang was sent to perform at the Hong Kong Pavilion of the Canada World Expo. Her photos frequently appeared on the headlines of Hong Kong's entertainment pages, completely overshadowing the Miss Oriental champion Qiu Yueqing.
Just when everyone thought that Wu Wanfang would become another big star in Hong Kong, TVB banned her very promptly. The reason for the ban was very simple. After Wu Wanfang became famous, she was surrounded by scandals and was even photographed by reporters dating a wealthy businessman. Shao Yifu thought
He discredited the image of Miss Hong Kong and personally ordered Wu Wanfang to be completely banned.
From this point of view, Shao Yifu still attaches great importance to face and reputation, unlike Kang Jianfei who hypes things up without any moral integrity.
After the Miss Oriental final, "Tongzhi Zhongxing" directed by Li Hanxiang was also completely released and achieved an impressive record of 23.77 million at the box office in Hong Kong.
The next release was "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" starring Kang Jianfei and Zhong Chuhong. Not only did the two leading actors promote it everywhere, but even the Miss Oriental winners also mentioned "Mr. and Mrs. Smith".
Also released at the same time as "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" are Hung Kam-bo's "The Big Brother" produced by Golden Harvest, Zhang Sijia's directorial debut "The Favorite" produced by New Art City, and "The Courtship" directed by Zeng Zhiwei from Xinbao Cinema.
"Miscellaneous Army".
Among them, "Butterfly Lovers" and "The Courtship of the Misfits" are both films produced by the Butterfly Effect, and both of them fall into the category of urban comedies.
In addition, there are also the Hollywood blockbuster "Top Gun" starring Tom Cruise and Kelly Kelly from Anle Cinemas, and the realism-themed film "Crossing the Port" produced by Yindu Agency.
Six movies were released within a few days, completely igniting this year's summer box office war. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian () to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is
