161, girl Lin Qingxia (7K chapter)

Chu Huan could still afford to wait for two days.

Since one of the people I'm looking for has clearly rejected him, and the other's attitude is unclear, I can't just go back in such a state of disgrace.

There are still some things to do.

"Ahua, help me buy some XO and bring it back!"

Chu Huan returned to the room and preached to Chen Hua.

Chen Hua asked: "Young Master Huan, do you want to drink?"

Chu Huan waved his hand and said: "No, when buying good wine, remember not to worry about the price. As long as it is good wine, buy some. I have other uses."

After hearing what Chu Huan said, Chen Hua stopped asking any more questions and turned around to take Chen Shaohui to buy wine.

Chu Huan was a little bored and lectured to Xu Dongzhang, Wan Jun and Gong Mi who stayed by his side.

"Let's go, let's go visit Taipei and see what's going on here."

Naturally, Xu Dongzhang and the other three people had no objections. They followed Chu Huan to Taipei this time. Their only mission was to protect Chu Huan's safety. Wherever Chu Huan went, they could follow him.

The four of them went out and did not rent a car at the hotel. They just asked the waiter for directions and left the hotel on foot.

Chu Huan's goal was Ximending, a famous commercial street in Taipei, but at this time, Ximending was also known as Movie Street.

Most of the leading theaters of Taipei's famous cinema chain companies are here. Later movies that hold their premieres in Taipei will basically have their premieres here.

As soon as he arrived here, Chu Huan felt the strong movie style. Huge posters were hung at the entrances of major theaters. They were all popular movies. Chu Huan looked at them carefully.

Basically it can be divided into three parts. The first part is local movies from Taiwan, and the most eye-catching one is the movie poster adapted from Qiong Yao's novel.

The second part is the imported Hong Kong movies, the most prominent of which are the Shaw Brothers movies.

The third part is all kinds of other movies, and Jiahe’s movie posters are also included.

I don’t know which video store is playing Teresa Teng’s songs at this time. The boys and girls passing by can’t help but stop and look at the inside of the video store, and some can’t help but walk in.

Teresa Teng debuted very early. She was already performing with the band when she was less than ten years old. When she was ten years old, she participated in the Taiwan Huangmei Tune Singing Competition of China Radio. She defeated many older contestants and won the competition with "Visiting the British Channel"

champion.

In 1967, she officially released her first album, but what really made Teresa Teng famous was singing the theme song of the same name in Taiwan's first TV series "Jingjing", and she became famous in Taiwan.

Today, Teresa Teng is one of the most famous female singers in Taiwan.

In a few years, this woman will become popular on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and in three places, and will also become a popular Chinese singer in Japan.

Chu Huan just stopped and listened for a few words, then stopped listening and walked towards a theater that looked good. Now that he was the boss of a film company, he needed to pay more attention to the film market.

Chu Huan found a movie theater that was showing Shaw Brothers movies and went in. Zhang Shaohui bought tickets and a few people went in.

I have the impression that this movie has already been released in Hong Kong, but judging from the attendance at the venue, it probably didn't last long in Taiwan.

Since we don’t know how long this movie has been shown in Taiwan, we cannot judge the actual situation of this movie in Taiwan based on the attendance rate.

Then it depends on the reaction of the audience in the cinema.

Soon Chu Huan understood one thing: this movie is still very popular in Taiwan.

In fact, Chu Huan has never been very wary of Shaw Brothers, not even as high as Jiahe.

This is actually Chu Huan's habitual thinking. After all, in his previous life, Chu Huan started to get in touch with Hong Kong movies in the 1980s.

At that time, the mainstream movies in Xiangjiang were New Art City and Golden Harvest, not Shaw Brothers.

Moreover, in Chu Huan's memory, Shaw Brothers was also the first film company to cease production, which led Chu Huan to always feel that Shaw Brothers was in decline at this time.

But this is not actually the case. Even with the emergence of Golden Harvest, Shaw Brothers is still the most powerful film company in Hong Kong and the best-run Hong Kong film company in overseas markets.

Produced by Shaw Brothers, it must be a high-quality product!

In the 1960s and 1970s, this sentence was absolutely not an exaggeration.

This is still a movie that Chu Huan has no memory of, so it looks very fresh. Of course, the scenery, fighting and other scenes also make Chu Huan unbearable to watch.

Putting aside the memory of the past life, this movie is still a good movie in this era.

Ninety minutes later, Chu Huan reminded himself that when he returned to Xiangjiang, he must be more vigilant about Shaw Brothers. Judging from the current situation, the basics of Shaw Brothers' movies overseas are very stable.

Defeating Shaw Brothers will not happen overnight, but fortunately, the two sides have now reached a preliminary alliance plan, and their common enemy is Jiahe.

In the next few hours, Chu Huan still went to one cinema after another, but he never finished watching it. He would watch each movie for about 20 minutes before coming out. It was more about getting to know the film market in Taipei and analyzing it.

Out of the entire film market in Taiwan.

In fact, the giant posters just in front of the major movie theaters in Ximending have already explained some problems.

At this time, the mainstream commercial films in Taiwan were actually Xiangjiang commercial films led by Shaw Brothers, as well as local literary films adapted from Qiong Yao's novels.

Yes, literary and artistic films can also become blockbuster commercial films, and this is related to Taiwan's film culture.

Taiwan's film policy at this time was no worse than the domestic film censorship system of later generations. All kinds of censorship were enough to make Taiwan's film companies want to die.

In fact, Taiwan's film industry once had its glory days, but this glory period was too short.

In the 1960s, Taiwan's film industry developed rapidly.

The number of studios increased from 41 in 1963 to 124 in 1970, and film production increased from 30 in 1960 to 163 in 1970.

In 1966, Taiwan's feature film output ranked third in the world, second only to Japan and India.

In 1963, "The Streets" came out, pioneering realism.

The "healthy realism line" has emerged in Taiwan's film industry, emphasizing that films must meet the requirements of the times, pursue human virtues, and guide people to do good and hate evil.

"Oyster Girl", which was shot along the "healthy realism line", immediately caused a sensation upon its release.

The film won the Best Film Award at the 11th Asian Film Festival in 1964. Then "Duck Farmers" was completed and released to the audience. This is a film describing the hard life of duck farmers living on the Danshui River in Taipei. The duck farmers in the film

The father and daughter depend on each other for life, the story has twists and turns, the plot is touching and tear-jerking.

The theme of the film is novel, the composition is unique, and the scenes are beautiful and refreshing.

The film industry will always follow the good news. Since this type of movies can sell for money in Taiwan, there will naturally be an endless stream of them. During this period, many high-quality movies were also released.

But the good times did not last long, as the realistic film exposed the dark side of Taiwanese society and caused panic among the authorities.

The authorities have strictly controlled and censored such films, cutting the originally excellent films into pieces and changing them beyond recognition, losing their original value.

The road of film creation guided by the "healthy realism line" has since come to an end, and has been replaced by "romantic romance films". Movies adapted from Qiong Yao's romantic romance novels have become overwhelming.

According to Taiwanese media at this time, there are two kinds of love in China, one is Qiong Yao's and the other is not Qiong Yao's.

In 1963, "Wanjun's Cousin" was released; "Misty Rain" was grandly launched and captured the hearts of the audience at once.

Suddenly, various film production companies competed for the copyright of Qiong Yao's novels, and the movies adapted from Qiong Yao's novels became an important part of people's lives during that period.

Films such as "Ship", "Purple Shell", and "Cold Smoke" were released one after another, and the box office value of romantic films remained high.

In 1967, Qiong Yao formed her own Firebird Company and filmed films such as "Moon Full West Tower" and "Clover" adapted from her own novels.

During this period, Qiong Yao's films became the mainstream of Taiwan's film market.

What can compete with it is the new martial arts film launched by Shaw Brothers in Taiwan.

It was so lively when both sides sang and we came on stage.

"It seems that Qiong Yao still has to work hard!"

Thinking of Qiong Yao's influence in Taiwan at this time, Chu Huan understood that Qiong Yao now became the key if he wanted to crack down on Taiwan's market.

Just when Chu Huan was thinking about how to conquer Qiong Yao, Chu Huan vaguely heard a man's voice.

"You two ladies, your image is very suitable for being a movie actor... Don't worry, I'm not a bad guy, I'm a talent scout for a movie company, and the great director Song Cunshou is the director of our company!"

Such a conversation aroused Chu Huan's curiosity. He followed the sound and looked over. To Chu Huan's surprise, he actually saw the girl version of Lin Qingxia!

Even though Chu Huan's understanding of Hong Kong movies is not as clear as those who are purely Hong Kong entertainment travelers, he still knows Lin Qingxia very well.

"The Swordsman: The Invincible East" is a classic in the hearts of a generation.

In fact, Chu Huan was not too interested in Lin Qingxia's appearance at that time. Maybe it was because she had acted in more movies of this type, so Lin Qingxia's body became more heroic, but also reduced the fragile temperament of some actresses. .

But Lin Qingxia at this time was different. If I remember correctly, Lin Qingxia at this time should have just graduated from high school. Her face was full of collagen and she had a girlish temperament. She didn't have the heroic spirit she had later, and had more of a girlish youthfulness.

At this time, Lin Qingxia was the most straight-looking person in Chu Huan's mind.

Lin Qingxia once mentioned in her memoirs that after she failed in high school, she wandered around Ximending with her friends, met a talent scout by chance, and then got the talent scout's business card.

However, Lin Qingxia did not agree to the talent scout's invitation at that time. She called the talent scout later and then entered the entertainment industry. She even starred in her first movie next year, "Outside the Window" adapted from Qiong Yao's novel. He became famous instantly in Taiwan.

Later, Taiwan was even called "Two Forests and Two Qins".

The current situation gave Chu Huan an inexplicable sense of absurdity. A familiar historical event happened vividly in front of him, which made Chu Huan feel very absurd.

At this time, Lin Qingxia was obviously wary of what was happening in front of her. She leaned back slightly to distance herself from the scout, and at the same time moved slightly closer to her companion, which could increase her sense of security.

"Sorry, we have no plans to enter the entertainment industry!"

Lin Qingxia politely refused the other party.

At this time in Taiwan, the entertainment industry was more exaggerated than in Hong Kong, and almost every film company had varying degrees of connection with the community.

In this era, Taiwanese artists are cash cows in the hands of associations. Movie actors are slightly better, but singers are even more miserable.

They will be escorted by the club to perform in one venue and one venue until the last trace of value is squeezed out of them.

It is rumored that another Lin from Taiwan Island was brought out to drink with the club boss many times after he became famous in Taiwan and before he met Cheng Long.

This is also the reason why Taiwanese artists like to go to Hong Kong to develop their careers after becoming famous.

Of course, this is also related to the decline of Taiwan’s film production business.

It was fate that we met, and Chu Huan was ready to go up and strike up a conversation.

"I did this for the development of the film company, and it was definitely not a bad idea."

Chu Huan thought seriously.

However, just when Chu Huan was about to step forward, bursts of fighting sounds suddenly came from the distance. Zhang Shaohui and the three people following Chu Huan immediately protected Chu Huan behind him.

Looking into the distance, Chu Huan saw a Taipei version of a street fight. There were about thirty people in the two groups, and there were about a dozen people in the small group.

What surprised Chu Huan was that the thirty or so people were being chased and killed by ten more people at this time. Those who escaped were in a panic and had bumped into many passers-by.

Because of this sudden accident, Ximending suddenly became chaotic.

"Master Huan, it's too dangerous here, let's go!" Zhang Shaohui said to Chu Huan.

Chu Huan nodded. Although Lin Qingxia was very important, her own safety was more important. Taipei's community fights were worse than those in Xiangjiang.

"It seems we can only wait for the next opportunity."

After saying that, Chu Huan was about to leave, but at this moment he discovered that Lin Qingxia seemed to be frightened by the situation in front of her, standing there at a loss.

And the talent scout who handed him his business card before had already disappeared to nowhere.

Seeing that the group of short mules were about to kill Lin Qingxia, Chu Huan subconsciously made a decision, ran to Lin Qingxia's side, grabbed her hand without any explanation, and said.

"Don't run away yet!"

After saying that, regardless of whether Lin Qingxia agreed or not, she dragged her and ran around.

Zhang Shaohui and others stayed behind Chu Huan from a distance and did not step forward.

A few minutes later, Chu Huan ran to a remote alley with Lin Qingxia. He put his hands on his knees, panted heavily, and looked at Lin Qingxia, who was still a little unresponsive, and preached.

"You are out of your mind. If you didn't run away from the situation just now, what if you are accidentally injured by those people?"

Originally, Lin Qingxia was going to express her gratitude to Chu Huan. She was really at a loss just now, but now that she heard Chu Huan's complaint, the gratitude in her heart flew away in an instant and she said loudly.

"I have nothing to do with them. How could they hurt me if they cut them?"

Chu Huan stood up straight and looked at Lin Qingxia. Her hair was very messy because of the run just now. Her delicate and fair face was also slightly red at this time, with a few drops of sweat hanging on her face.

"Then you blame me for being nosy?"

After all, Lin Qingxia couldn't say such unconscionable words, and her anger just now was only temporary. When she heard what Chu Huan said, she finally preached.

"Thank you for what happened just now!"

The sudden change in attitude surprised Chu Huan, but since the other party had already thanked him, Chu Huan naturally couldn't say anything else.

"Forget it, we can't watch you being accidentally injured somewhere!"

Lin Qingxia nodded, and when she was about to say something, she suddenly exclaimed: "It's broken, where is Yunru?"

Chu Huan asked confusedly: "Who is Yunru?"

Lin Qingxia said: "That's my classmate. She was with me just now. Didn't you see her?"

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "No!"

Lin Qingxia was so anxious that she almost cried, "How could you not see it? She was clearly standing with me just now."

Chu Huan then remembered that Lin Qingxia was talking about her classmate. Seeing Lin Qingxia's anxious look, she said, "I guess that group of people should have gone elsewhere at this time. How about we go back and have a look?"

Lin Qingxia was also worried about her classmates, so she nodded hurriedly: "Thank you, thank you!"

The two walked out of the alley. Zhang Shaohui and others were still following Chu Huan from a distance and did not come forward. Lin Qingxia was worried about her classmates and did not notice Zhang Shaohui and others.

When Chu Huan and Lin Qingxia returned to where they were, they did not see Lin Qingxia's classmate, which made Lin Qingxia even more anxious.

"Maybe the other party has left."

Chu Huan comforted him at this time.

Lin Qingxia said with a hint of crying: "What if something happens?"

"Qingxia!"

At this time, a woman's voice came from one direction. Chu Huan and Lin Qingxia looked over at the same time. Chu Huan saw a girl wearing a long skirt walking out of a shop, with a look of relief on her face.

Surprised, she ran towards Lin Qingxia.

"Yunru, are you okay? I'm worried about you!"

Lin Qingxia also ran over happily and hugged Yunru.

"Where did you go just now? Why didn't I see you?" Lin Qingxia asked excitedly.

Yunru complained: "You ran too fast with this person, and I couldn't catch up with him, so I hid there."

Lin Qingxia's face suddenly turned red, and she felt that she was a little unloyal.

But this incident is not my fault at all, it is all that strange person.

Thinking of this, Lin Qingxia couldn't help but look back at Chu Huan.

Chu Huan laughed and said nothing.

It's really hard to explain this matter, after all, I really didn't notice the female classmate next to Lin Qingxia.

However, after this encounter, the relationship between the two parties became closer, so Chu Huan suggested going to the milk tea shop next door.

Lin Qingxia and her classmates were a little hesitant, but finally agreed to Chu Huan's invitation.

After arriving at the milk tea shop, the three of them chatted for a while and had a preliminary understanding of their respective situations.

Needless to say, Lin Qingxia was in a depressed mood now because she failed the college entrance examination. She went shopping in Ximending with her classmate Chen Yunru, but she did not expect to encounter such a thing.

Lin Qingxia and Chen Yunru also knew Chu Huan's identity, and he was the boss of a Xiangjiang film company.

"Are you lying to us? The boss of a film company can be so young. You look about the same age as us."

After Chen Yunru learned Chu Huan's identity, she showed a suspicious expression, and Lin Qingxia also looked at Chu Huan warily.

After all, the two parties are about the same age. Although Chu Huan wears casual clothes and is a bit different from a student, his age does not matter.

Chu Huan smiled and said: "What's the point of lying to you? By the way, you know Director Li Hanxiang, he is now the director of my film company."

"Haha!" Chen Yunru laughed and said, "It's getting more and more unreasonable to brag. Director Li Hanxiang is now at Shaw Brothers. How can he be the director of your film company?"

Li Hanxiang is very famous in Taiwan. When he left Taiwan and returned to Hong Kong, there were newspaper reports on it. Girls like Chen Yunru were curious about entertainment industry news, so they naturally saw it.

However, Taiwanese newspapers at that time also analyzed that if Li Hanxiang returned to Xiangjiang, the most likely possibility would be to return to Shaw Brothers.

In addition, news does not spread so fast now, so Chen Yunru and the others always thought that Li Hanxiang had joined Shaw Brothers after returning to Xiangjiang.

Chu Huan touched his nose and said with a smile: "Well, now that you have seen through it, I can only admit that I am indeed bragging."

When Lin Qingxia and Chen Yunru heard this, they immediately smiled, and the vigilance in their eyes disappeared.

"Then what do you do?"

Chen Yunru asked curiously.

Chu Huan said: "I am actually a student of the University of Hong Kong, and I came to Taiwan to travel during the holidays."

"So that's it." Chen Yunru nodded, and then said with some satisfaction: "How is it? Did the situation just scare you? Who is better between your Xiangjiang club and our Taipei club?"

The street fight just now was not unusual for Taiwan at this time. Chen Yunru and Lin Qingxia must have been very scared at the time, but thinking about it afterwards, they found it very exciting.

Chu Huan said nonchalantly: "How powerful can he be? To put it bluntly, he is not a chamber pot for high-ranking officials."

"Hey!" Chen Yunru said exaggeratedly: "You are so vulgar, how can you say that?"

Chu Huan smiled and said, "Am I wrong in what I said?"

Lin Qingxia said at this time: "Actually, you're right, it's just so vulgar!"

The three of them are similar in age. Lin Qingxia and Chen Yunru are not very wary of Chu Huan. In addition, Chu Huan talks humorously, and the three of them soon become good friends.

Chu Huan saw that the time was almost up, especially after knowing that Chen Yunru would go to Tainan with her family next, Chu Huan smiled and said to Lin Qingxia: "Lin Qingxia, you don't have anything to do now anyway, why not be mine?"

How about being a tour guide and earning some extra money to support your family?"

Lin Qingxia was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that Chu Huan would invite her to be his tour guide. She was a little hesitant for a while, after all, she had just met Chu Huan.

Chu Huan naturally discovered the other party's concerns, and smiled and told Lin Qingxia the hotel where she was staying, so that she could call to confirm her identity first.

Lin Qingxia then agreed and would think about it.

"Then I'll call you tonight and we'll confirm this matter then!"

Chu Huan smiled.

Lin Qingxia simply thought about the phone call and agreed to Chu Huan's proposal. No matter what, she had to go home and discuss it with her family.

Later, Lin Qingxia told Chu Huan her home phone number.

Great, don’t you get the contact information now?

The goal has been achieved, and Chu Huan also knows the meaning of too much is not enough, so he chatted with Lin Qingxia and Chen Yunru for a few words, then took the lead to settle the bill and leave.

After Chu Huan left, Chen Yunru smiled and took Lin Qingxia's arm and said: "Qingxia, this Chu Huan is so handsome. He is more handsome than the boys in the school next to our school. No, he is more handsome than those male stars in the movie.

He is also handsome, not even Qin Han can compare with him."

Lin Qingxia went to a girls' school.

At this time, Qin Han was already well-known in Taiwan and was a famous literary and artistic student. Many young girls regarded him as their idol.

"What a pity. I have to go to Tainan with my parents tomorrow. Otherwise, it would be great for the two of us to be his tour guide together!"

Lin Qingxia smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that Chu Huan is a liar?"

Chen Yunru said in a somewhat nymphomaniacal manner: "Even if he is a liar, he is still a handsome liar."

Lin Qingxia was speechless for a while.

Chen Yunru chuckled and said, "Okay, I won't joke with you anymore, but I don't think this Chu Huan is a liar, even though he lied to us before and said he was the boss of a film company."

"What you said is so contradictory!" Lin Qingxia joked.

"No contradiction, not at all. The Grand Hotel is the best hotel in Taipei. Chu Huan is definitely not an ordinary person to be able to live there. If he is a liar, his cost will be too high."

Chen Yunru's family can be considered a Yinshi family in Taipei, and they know more things than Lin Qingxia.

"Really?" Lin Qingxia asked with some uncertainty.

"Don't worry, you must be right to listen to me!" Chen Yunru said proudly: "By the way, Qingxia, you must remember to ask for Chu Huan's contact information in Xiangjiang. If we have the opportunity to go to Xiangjiang in the future, please tell me

Maybe we can meet him again!"

Lin Qingxia smiled and said, "I haven't promised him yet."

"Why don't you agree? Anyway, you don't have anything else to do during this period. Just like he said, you might as well make some extra money as a tour guide."

Chen Yunru asked in confusion.

The words of a best friend sometimes carry a lot of weight in a girl's heart, so when Chen Yunru also tried to trick Lin Qingxia into agreeing, Lin Qingxia was really moved.

But Lin Qingxia still said: "I still have to go home and discuss this matter with my parents."

Lin Qingxia's parents were still very strict in disciplining Lin Qingxia. Later, when Lin Qingxia first entered the film and television industry, Lin's mother set many rules for Lin Qingxia.

Chen Yunru also knew the situation at Lin Qingxia's home, and said worriedly: "That's true, but I don't think my uncle and aunt will have any big objections. I can't let you stay at home all the time!"
