Chapter 119 The 1967 edition of 'The True Color of Heroes'
Sun Dahai, who was in a happy mood, suddenly became childlike. He made a fist with one hand, making a microphone shape, and stretched it out in front of Ren Tuoyei.
"Mr. Ren, Lei Hao. I'm just a reporter who made up nonsense. May I ask, how do you feel about Lei becoming a millionaire?"
Ren Kuang was stunned for a moment, but he responded quickly and immediately picked up the topic: "Thank you, becoming a millionaire is just a small achievement in my life experience. It is insignificant. Our focus should not be here.
, but to face the world.
You must know that we are still facing many problems: the Cold War between the Eastern and Western superpowers, which is always threatening world peace; the food and clothing problem of the African people has not yet been solved; the 1999 human catastrophe predicted by Nostradamus has not yet been solved.
A little clue..."
Sun Dahai curled his lips, turned around and walked towards Bafu Garden without saying a word.
I really didn't expect that Ren Kuei, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, could be so funny.
However, this reminded Sun Dahai of a passage on the Internet in his previous life: actors from Xiangjiang are very open-minded in movies and TV dramas; actors from Wanwan are very open-minded in variety shows; and actors from Mainland China,
Only in private gatherings can we be more relaxed.
Two new millionaires, one big and one small, were walking home.
The lunch box I had for lunch had already been digested.
Sniffing the smell, they bought two bowls of beef offal from a roadside stall, one bowl per person, holding them in their hands, eating and walking, and soon blended into the streets of Xiangjiang at dusk.
…
Early the next morning, Ren Kuang got up and went to the company.
Yesterday, a colleague from the company's artist department introduced him to the guest job. Although he didn't make any money, he still wanted to thank him because of the situation.
It was raining lightly outside, so everyone stayed at home, had a bite of breakfast, and then dispersed.
Today is Tuesday, a day off for Cao Ji’s private restaurant. Sun Dahai chatted with Chef Cao who was at home for a while, and teased Cao Shanshan for a while. Finally, he was driven back by the cry of the little princess.
own room.
Alas, what should we do? In this season in Xiangjiang, it is better not to rain than not. Not only is it not cool, it is also steaming, like a huge sauna.
At noon, everyone simply ate some fried bean paste noodles, which were very authentic. The dry yellow soybean paste was specially brought here from the capital by Huang Feifei at the request of Chef Cao.
The noodles are made by hand and cooked in cold water, then mixed with the fried sauce of diced pork belly, topped with cucumber shreds, radish shreds, bean sprouts, peas and other noodles, plus vinegar, which makes it refreshing and chewy.
, much more comfortable than eating any big fish or meat.
After a meal, drink a bowl of warm noodle soup, the original soup becomes the original food, which really makes you feel refreshed both physically and mentally.
Ren Kuei is not here, and neither are Cao Yong and Lisa. Cao Shanshan wants to sleep, and the old people also need to take a nap.
Sun Dahai, who had nothing to do, took out the rental card from the video store downstairs that Lisa gave him, and went downstairs to rent old movies to watch.
This was done by Cao Yong for Lisa before she was due to give birth. She was given a vacation to watch a movie every day to prevent her from getting bored.
When Sun Dahai and the others came to Xiangjiang, Lisa gave him the card. Anyway, it had already been recharged. Every time he rented a belt, the boss deducted money from the card.
Sun Dahai has been in Xiangjiang for more than a month. This time coincides with the rainy season in Xiangjiang. About two-thirds of the days are spent in the rain.
On rainy days and when he didn't want to go out, Sun Dahai also rented and watched video cassettes several times. However, for Sun Dahai, the Hong Kong movies of the 1960s and 1970s were just a kind of nostalgia, and watching a few movies was enough.
In the video stores on the streets of Xiangjiang in 1982, most of them were Xiangjiang film and television dramas from the 1960s and 1970s, with very few foreign films. Sun Dahai looked left and right on the shelves, really not knowing what to choose.
The owner of the audio and video store is an audio and video enthusiast. Sun Dahai has been here several times, and they both know each other.
Taking advantage of the fact that there were no other customers in the store, the boss asked Sun Dahai what type of movies he wanted to watch. He could introduce a few good movies for Sun Dahai to choose from.
Sun Dahai actually didn't have any goals. He hesitated and said that he wanted to watch some unique and innovative films, not the mainstream ancient costume martial arts films.
The boss thought for a moment, then found a video tape and handed it to him, and told Sun Dahai that this was also one of his favorite movies.
Sun Dahai took the videotape and took a look. There were four big characters "The True Colors of a Hero" printed on the cover of the tape.
Sun Dahai was startled. When did Brother Ma come out?
He took a closer look and saw that none of the people on the cover were recognizable. Could it be that they were printed wrongly?
Fortunately, his boss introduced the film to him in time, which made Sun Dahai realize that he had made an own mistake.
This is a black-and-white Cantonese film shot in 1967. The director and director are actually Long Gang, whom I met on the set yesterday.
The video store owner praised this movie very much. He said that this is one of the rare movies in recent years that uses brotherhood as the main clue. Moreover, it is not a cookie-cutter ancient costume martial arts movie, but a gangster movie that reflects social reality.
Listen to others and eat enough.
Sun Dahai knew that his understanding of Xiangjiang movies of this era was far inferior to that of the boss in front of him. He was just killing time anyway, so he took the videotape away after thanking his boss.
After returning home, Sun Dahai spent two hours watching the 118-minute movie.
In Sun Dahai's eyes, this movie was actually very average. It was all in Cantonese and there were no Mandarin subtitles. Sun Dahai was speechless while watching it. Fortunately, the pace of movies in the 1960s was relatively slow, so he could barely understand most of it.
In the subtitles printed at the beginning of the film, there was actually the name of "Fourth Brother" Xie Xian. Sun Dahai looked for it in the film and actually saw his performance.
Not to mention, Xie Xian was really handsome when he was young. No wonder his son is so handsome, he is born with good genes~!
However, while watching the movie, he also thought of something. Legend has it that Wu Yusen's True Colors of a Hero was a remake of the movie of the same name. Now it seems like this.
Although Sun Dahai didn't quite understand it, the plot outlines and the brotherly love expressed in the two films were exactly the same.
After the video was played, Sun Dahai took out the videotape from the machine, turned off the TV, and fell into deep thought.
…
In the evening, when Ren Kuang returned home, Sun Dahai grabbed him.
"Uncle Hua, I ask you to ask about Uncle Rong, have you asked clearly?"
"I asked my eldest brother and he said there is no problem. As long as he participates in the half-year training organized by the police station, he can become an auxiliary police officer in Hong Kong."
He looked around and said in a low voice: "Brother told me that the higher-ups are worried about the future of Xiangjiang and are worried about social unrest.
Because the current police establishment problem means that the police force is insufficient to control the entire island and respond to emergencies, the Governor-General requires the Police Department to appropriately lower the entry threshold and try to make up for the gap in auxiliary police."
Sun Dahai said happily: "That's great, so my plan can be implemented."
Ren Kuangwei nodded in agreement: "As long as you can do a good job for both of them, there should be no problem.
But the problem is that auxiliary police work part-time. The salary they receive from the government is only equivalent to a little more than one-third of the per capita monthly income, which is not enough to support themselves.
After one or two years, whether you can find a long-term stable source of income for them is the key to truly solving their problems.
I'm afraid we can't support thirty of them just with the dozens of stalls and warehouses in Lan Kwai Fong."
"This is not a big problem. We will wait until our company is registered. Anyway, there is still more than a year. What are the requirements for applying to become the Royal Auxiliary Police of Hong Kong now?"
