"Before I invited you to participate in this show, I noticed that there were a lot of rumors on the Internet."
Shen Shuling stared at Lu Chen unblinkingly with her red phoenix eyes. Her voice was so beautiful from beginning to end, but the flavor contained in her words was not necessarily gentle and harmless.
"Someone said in a blog that whether the new film support policy introduced by the Hong Kong Island government can recreate the glory of Hong Kong films remains to be verified by time, but the introduction of 'Wolf' in the first place will undoubtedly have a negative impact on Hong Kong's film industry.
This will create an impact and further intensify the already fierce competition.”
"He proposed that the Hong Kong Island government should readjust its policies and impose restrictions on foreign industry players."
"So Lu Chen, do you think you are also a member of the wolf pack, or what do you think about this?"
In the program "Entertainment Three Talks", Shen Shuling is the host, and she is also the leader of the topic. Perhaps she does not hold any position herself, and interacts with the guests from a completely objective and neutral position.
However, this does not mean that she will not touch sensitive topics. On the contrary, she obviously consciously intensifies the atmosphere of the conversation and creates conflicts and arguments.
This topic was mentioned by Zhuang Dong first. He was undoubtedly the supporter of these sensitive remarks. When he saw Shen Shuling bringing the flames of war to Lu Chen, a faint smile suddenly appeared on his face, as if he was just watching the show.
In Zhuang Dong's eyes, Lu Chen was very young. Being young meant that he lacked sufficient experience, deep knowledge and adaptability. Moreover, Lu Chen had just come from the mainland and was definitely unfamiliar with Xiangjiang.
Shen Shuling's question was very tricky, and it also touched on the sensitive side of Hong Kong people. If Lu Chen's answer was even slightly appropriate, then his evening program interview would be a failure.
In other words, Zhuang Dong will win without fighting and win easily.
In fact, it is not good to win too easily.
Zhuang Dong even had a little regret. The real victory should be to crush the opponent in a fierce battle.
Lu Chen pondered for a moment, seeming to be thinking.
It seemed that this question really stopped him, which made Zhuang Dong feel even more proud.
The audience sitting in front of the TV watching this program had a different feeling.
Akang's sister complained: "Really, how can you ask such an outrageous question and how can anyone answer it?"
She was really fascinated by Lu Chen's handsomeness and instinctively spoke for Lu Chen.
Akang sympathized with Lu Chen very much. If he had been questioned like this, his performance would probably have been even worse.
In his heart, Akang also somewhat agrees with the term "wolf pack". When he usually works in the company, he often hears his colleagues say that the current market is so bad, prices are so high, and housing prices are so expensive. A large part of the reason is that the mainland
relationship.
Mainland companies have taken away the business of Xiangjiang companies, and mainlanders have come to Xiangjiang to shop and buy real estate.
Now it's the film industry's turn. I don't know what the Hong Kong government thinks. Why doesn't it think more about the locals? As the saying goes, the good news should not flow to outsiders.
There were a lot of messy thoughts in his head, and he thought of Xiaowei again.
I wonder if Xiaowei will be very angry?
At this moment, Lu Chen on the TV screen spoke.
His expression was very serious and solemn: "I think I, as well as my colleagues from the mainland, are not wolves."
"If I were to use a metaphor, I think I'd like to be a catfish."
"catfish?"
Shen Shuling was surprised: "Why do you say you want to be a catfish?"
I feel like this metaphor is very strange.
Lu Chen smiled slightly, his smile was bright and sunny, making Shen Shuling feel a little excited just looking at it.
Just listen to him say: "Let me tell you a little story first."
"A long time ago, Norwegians liked to eat sardines, especially fresh sardines. However, there were no aerators at that time, and the fishermen had a long way to go to sea to catch sardines. The sardines kept in the cabin did not like to move and were often in the water.
They all died on the way back to Hong Kong, so they couldn’t be sold at a good price.”
"But people discovered that a fisherman caught many sardines alive and could always be sold at a high price. This secret was not revealed until the fisherman's death."
Lu Chen told the story in a eloquent and suspenseful way. Not only did Shen Shuling listen with rapt attention, but Zhuang Dong also became curious. He wanted to see what kind of medicine Lu Chen was selling in this gourd!
Lu Chen continued: "It turns out that the fisherman raised a catfish in the cabin. Among the sardines, there was this ferocious alien. They would swim and dodge instinctively, maintaining the vitality of life. In the end, many of them survived.
port."
After the story was told, Shen Shuling, Zhuang Dong and many viewers in front of the TV all vaguely understood.
This also includes the audience at the recording site of the program, and the atmosphere in the studio becomes very delicate.
Lu Chen continued: "I can say that I grew up watching Hong Kong movies and TV series, mainly Hong Kong movies in the 1990s. There are many real classics, such as "The Barrister", "The True Love of the World", "
"Hong Kong Island Hero", "Life and Death Rescue", etc."
Shen Shuling smiled and said: "Then you must be Liu Gangsheng's fan!"
Lu Chen also laughed, nodded and said calmly: "Yes, what I want to realize when I come to Xiangjiang is to meet my idol and have a few words with him."
Shen Shuling smiled: "Then your wish will definitely come true!"
Lu Chen's admiration and respect for Liu Gangsheng made the Hong Kong viewers in front of the TV suddenly have a better impression of him.
Liu Gangsheng can be said to be a symbol and representative of the inspirational efforts of Hong Kong people. His legendary life experience has inspired many young people in Hong Kong to work hard. His songs and film and television works have a profound influence in Hong Kong.
Lu Chen said: "At that time, Xiangjiang's classic movies and TV series were broadcast in the mainland, and they could win high box office and ratings. Especially for TV series, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a crowded market."
"But now, how much market does Xiangjiang's film and television dramas still have in the mainland?"
A faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and his sharp counterattack was hidden in implicit words: "As far as I know, I'm afraid there is not even one percent left."
Shen Shuling was silent.
The muscles on Zhuang Dong's face twitched, and he wanted to refute but found that he was at a loss for words.
Because what Lu Chen said is absolutely right. Xiangjiang Film and Television, which was once so glorious, has long lost its ability to influence the mainland and can only compete in its own territory and the traditional markets in Southeast Asia.
Lu Chen's words ruthlessly revealed the current situation of Xiangjiang's film and television industry. Combined with the stories he told before, anyone with some intelligence can understand what he wants to express.
The film and television practitioners in Xiangjiang are like sardines packed into a small cabin, and they will die sooner or later.
