This is one of the most developed areas in Hong Kong. Not only are there many department stores, but there are also many movie theaters. Many people work in companies during the day, and in the evening they all go out to have fun after get off work.
“Selling curry fish balls!”
“Crispy and delicious sausage!”
“Delicious dry-fried beef river!”
On the side of the road, the loud shouts of vendors can be heard from time to time.
Those young men and women who had got off work gathered together in twos and threes, eating fish balls and chewing fat intestines, with happy smiles on their faces.
Shi Zhijian was dressed in a brand-new suit and walked down the street handsomely.
Those pretty company girls, as well as the old ladies who were standing by the neon lights waiting for business, cast ambiguous glances at him from time to time.
Everyone has a love for beauty, and women are no exception.
But when these women's eyes moved from Shi Zhijian to Shi Yufeng next to them, they felt a little contemptuous. They thought it was a pity that such a handsome boy was with a cripple. Why was there a little girl? Could it be a couple?
"Your mother, this is my younger brother!"
Shi Yufeng saw clearly and immediately saw the meaning in these women's eyes, and couldn't help but curse.
"It's fun when you come out to play, why are you so angry?" Shi Zhijian bought a candy man and handed it to Bao'er, making Bao'er giggle.
"They looked at me wrongly and scolded me first with their eyes!"
"You are sharp, can you tell when your eyes are scolding you?"
"I've seen this a lot!" Shi Yufeng said, "Ever since I became lame, I haven't seen any expressions. I can tell what they mean just by looking at them."
Shi Zhijian remained silent. Shi Yufeng's leg was lame because of him.
"Hey, I understand the look in your eyes! Don't have any psychological burden. I saved you voluntarily back then, and it was my bad luck to have my hamstring cut off! If you do this again, I will be angry!"
Shi Zhijian hurriedly put his arms around his elder sister's shoulders, "We will all be happy if we listen to you! Now, let's watch the movie first!"
…
Hong Kong movies in this era were almost monopolized by Shaw Brothers.
Since the death of the first-generation film tycoon Lu Yuntao in a plane accident three years ago, there have been few film companies that can compete with Shaw Brothers.
Now Shaw Brothers dominates the Hong Kong film industry, producing more than 200 films a year, and is forming a huge film empire.
The "New Stage Cinema" in Causeway Bay is very busy tonight. There are people selling various snacks at the entrance, as well as balloons, toys, and flowers.
In the long corridor of the cinema, there are various hand-painted movie posters, such as the big stars of this era, Li Qi, Xie Yuan, Cao Dahua, Chen Baozhu, Xiao Fangfang, Xue Jiayan, Feng Baobao, etc., many big stars
appears on the poster.
There are three new movies released tonight, namely the first domestic 007 movie "Tie Guanyin", the Liaozhai adaptation movie "Chain", and "Sword of Heaven" starring Chen Baozhu, in which she plays the male lead "Zuo Shaobai".
This drama is adapted from a martial arts novel by Wo Longsheng, and Shaw Brothers bought the film adaptation rights. It only took 20 days to shoot, and the response was enthusiastic after it was released.
Shi Yufeng is a die-hard fan of Chen Baozhu. She has collected many personal posters and gossip magazines about Chen Baozhu at home, but she rarely watches movies because movie tickets are too expensive.
"Sword of Heaven" has been released for a month, and many people have already seen it. Shi Yufeng also went over to listen to the story told many times, but she was never willing to spend money to buy a ticket to watch it.
Tonight, Shi Zhijian helped my sister realize her dream, with two adult tickets and one child ticket, which cost a total of twelve and a half yuan.
Shi Yufeng saw Shi Zhijian handing money to the conductor. Even though she was now a rich woman with 30,000 Hong Kong dollars, she still couldn't help but feel pain in her body.
When Shi Zhijian bought a ticket for her, she started nagging Shi Zhijian for spending money indiscriminately. She also said that she didn't really like going to the movies. The movies seemed good to her, but not really good to watch.
…
Inside the cinema.
Shi Yufeng, who had just said that Shi Zhijian was a waste of money and that the movie was not good, was sitting on a chair with her fists in her hands. She looked so nervous that she wanted to use matchsticks to hold up her eyelids. She didn't want to be shot in the movie for even a second.
fall.
Bao'er also looked at the big screen curiously, completely attracted by the martial arts scenes on it.
Only Shi Zhijian yawned discordantly.
Because this play has been released for more than a month, there are not many people who bought tickets tonight.
Many people who like to watch movies came here to enjoy themselves a month ago. Only a stingy woman like Shi Yufeng would appreciate "such a masterpiece" so late.
Of course, in Shi Zhijian's eyes, "such a masterpiece" is inferior to the advertisements in the previous life.
This drama is not only dull in color, but also boring, especially the fight scenes that are so fake that they can only be described as funny.
The only thing that interested Shi Zhijian was that there was a future veteran "Zeng Jiang" in this drama. However, at this time, Zeng Jiang was still a handsome boy, and the role he played was also a very decent person, which made Shi Zhijian feel very inconsistent.
.
Just when Shi Zhijian was yawning and falling asleep, the sound of conversation came from behind him.
"Shaw Brothers has made a lot of money recently, with so many new movies released!"
"There are also people who lose money. If you invest 20,000 to 30,000 yuan in a movie, if it doesn't do well at the box office, you'll lose money!"
"A Shaw Brothers film must be a high-quality one, how can it be a bad one?"
"That's not necessarily the case! I heard that Shaw Brothers was recently investing in a play called "The One-Armed Sword". Director Chang Cheh and Boss Shao challenged him and actually cast a little-known newcomer Wang Yu to play the leading role. I'm afraid he will have to pay compensation.
To the point of vomiting blood!”
Big movies in this era usually cast big stars. This time, Shaw Brothers filmed "The One-Armed Sword". The boss of Shaw Brothers liked the big star Chen Guantai as the leading actor, but director Chang Cheh chose to cast newcomer Wang Yu. Therefore, this movie was praised by many
People are not optimistic about it, including Boss Shao himself.
When Shi Zhijian heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and even the sleepy man who had just climbed up the bridge of his nose ran away in fright.
Originally, Shi Zhijian listened to what Xu Shixun and Xu Sanshao said before, and planned to go to Shaw Brothers to sponsor and help advertise his instant noodles brand, but now after hearing about the drama "One-Armed Sword", he suddenly had a new idea.
Others don't know it, but he, Shi Zhijian, knows very well that "The One-Armed Sword" is simply the dark horse of Shaw Brothers since its establishment! It is also the first Shaw Brothers film to officially have a box office of over one million!
The director of this drama is Zhang Che, and the screenwriter is Ni Kuang. Ni Kuang wrote this drama and directly copied Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". The male protagonists were arranged to have an arm chopped off by Miss Diaoman, and then obtained the secret book to become a martial arts master.
.
This drama was unknown before its release, but after its release, it became an overnight sensation thanks to word-of-mouth, with a box office exceeding one million. Chang Cheh was awarded the title of "Millionaire Director", and Wang Yu became a martial arts superstar.
Shi Zhijian's heart became hot.
Instead of sponsoring movies to enhance your own brand reputation, why not just buy out the show?
It can not only help promote the brand, but also make a lot of money!
Thinking of this, Shi Zhijian has already made a decision----
