After Chu Huan rejected the invitation of the Xiangjiang Art Festival, Shao Yifu naturally became the chairman of the Xiangjiang Art Festival. This is an honorary position in itself, but it ended up bringing some unnecessary trouble to Shao Yifu.
In the eyes of many people, film is an art, but Shaw Brothers movies have tarnished this art. In fact, it is not just Shaw Brothers movies, black and white images are also among them.
It's just that when Black and White Video founded the Hong Kong Film Awards, a film critic was stripped of his pants by Black and White Video. In addition, Black and White Video really doesn't like these people, so it's easy to pick on the weak.
In addition, Shao Yifu has now become the chairman of the Hong Kong Arts Festival. It is a hot moment, so these so-called artists in Xiangjiang started to ridicule Shao Yifu, a film company owner who makes vulgar movies, how can he serve as the chairman of the Hong Kong Arts Festival?
What about such a noble position as chairman?
The most representative one is a man named Wang Jingyi who published a satirical poem in the magazine "Antarctic and Antarctic".
"For Hong Kong, for art, for reputation - dedicated to the chairman of Hong Kong Art Festival"
I suddenly heard
in the rumbling noise
Whispers of little female stars
with a sigh
They have always been controversial
It’s a question of whether to take off or not to take off
Salary in Babaigang City
R body under mercury lamp
and so-called sanctions and discipline
To you, they
Eyes of artificial beauty widened
And Xiangjiang has lost its reputation as a cultural desert.
But the festival’s gongs, drums and orchestra
In the end, I couldn’t suppress the protests from your female stars.
And those C's on the show, they said
You should never ignore it completely
The splendid program of the art festival is on
should also have a place
This is just one of the paragraphs. In addition to Wang Jingyi, there is also a lifelong critic of Shaw Brothers who commented, "SQ and violence are the two giant wheels for the advancement of Shaw Brothers."
This matter is now making Yifu Shao very worried. Originally, the chairman of the Xiangjiang Arts Festival was Chu Huan. Chu Huan met Shao Yifu by chance at the Peninsula Hotel, so he suggested that Yifu Shao take over the position.
Now something like this happened again, so after Chu Huan saw Shao Yifu, he sincerely apologized to him.
"Speaking of which, these people are all idle. When we were preparing for the Xiangjiang Arts Festival before, they all hid deeper than anyone else and couldn't find them even if I tried to find them. Now Black and White Video, Shaw Brothers donate money and people, and this arts festival will
It’s been done, but the other party jumped out and made nonsense again, which is simply abominable!”
Li Xiaohe preached with some dissatisfaction.
It costs money to hold the Xiangjiang Arts Festival, but the organizer has no money.
What to do if you have no money?
Fundraising!
In this matter, Black and White and Shaw Brothers all donated money, and they were the companies that donated the most money.
Nowadays, the black and white images are fine, but Shaw Brothers has directly become a target, which has to be said to be quite magical.
Shao Yifu said: "Otherwise, how do you think they make money?"
Chu Huan listened to Shao Yifu's sarcasm and knew that he must be dissatisfied in his heart, but caring about his own identity, this dissatisfaction could only be shown in front of people like Chu Huan, Li Xiaohe.
Life is a bit tiring. People complain about it. For the sake of personal image, I have to remain silent.
Chu Huan thought silently, if it were him, he would definitely start spraying!
But this is Shao Yifu's matter after all. Although it is because of what happened after Chu Huan resigned, he has just apologized and the matter has nothing to do with Chu Huan.
Then the three of them avoided the topic and discussed the Miss Xiangjiang final for a while.
Li Xiaohe is the chairman of TVB, Shao Yifu is the general manager of TVB, and Chu Huan is the largest shareholder of TVB. After the three of them discussed for a while, someone came in to remind them that it was almost time for the Miss Xiangjiang finals to start.
Chu Huan stood up and said with a smile: "You two, I'll leave first!"
As the chief judge of the Miss Xiangjiang finals, Chu Huan must be there, while Li Xiaohe and Shao Yifu stayed in the office and watched the live broadcast on TV.
In a few years, when Li Xiaohe passes away and Shao Yifu takes over the Miss Xiangjiang election, Shao Yifu will be present at every finals.
Zhou Runfa was still waiting outside. After Chu Huan came out, he took Chu Huan to the recording studio. The audience had not yet entered the venue. The 12 finalists were using the last bit of time to rehearse.
When Chu Huan arrived at the scene, several other judges had also arrived. When they saw Chu Huan coming, they all stood up and said hello.
Chu Huan smiled and chatted with the other party.
But his eyes were always focused on the situation on the stage.
To be honest, the current TVB recording studio feels very crude to Chu Huan, a bit like the performance stage of a large bathing center in later generations...
After almost useless searching, Chu Huan saw Zhu Lingling in casual clothes on the stage.
There is no way, in this Miss Hong Kong election, Zhu Lingling's image is so good that she completely surpasses the other contestants.
The media's evaluation of Zhu Lingling is: she is so beautiful that she is calm and unobtrusive, she is so beautiful that she has her own spotlight, and she has good appearance and elegant temperament.
Such women are not only liked by men in Xiangjiang, but also by women.
Unlike her descendants, such as Li Yaojing, whose beauty makes women feel threatened, Li Yaojing's beauty is offensive, but Zhu Lingling is not, so she is loved by both men and women in Xiangjiang.
Later, a female writer in Xiangjiang once said: There are two people in Xiangjiang who are loved by thousands of people. The male is Zhou Runfa and the female is Zhu Lingling.
Why do you say that? If I had to give an explanation for Zhu Lingling's life, it would be.
In the first half of her life, she went from being the most beautiful Hong Kong lady to a wealthy lady; in the second half of her life, she left the wealthy Huo family and married into the wealthy Luo family.
It was also starting from Zhu Lingling that it became the first time for a Xiangjiang lady to marry into a super wealthy family in Xiangjiang.
Thinking of this, Chu Huan looked at the auditorium. Huo Zhenting, who had entered the venue early, was already sitting there. At the same time, besides Huo Zhenting, Chu Huan also spotted a young man sitting not far away.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Before the recording officially started, the people who were able to enter the venue in advance were all people with status in Xiangjiang, but they were a little unfamiliar with this young man Chu Huan.
I don’t know which family’s young master it is.
When Chu Huan was observing those Hong Kong ladies, those Hong Kong ladies were also paying attention to Chu Huan.
Although Chu Huan is married, Chu Huan's love affair is not a secret in Xiangjiang. More importantly, although Chu Huan has several women, Chu Huan's life as a woman is really quite good. Even some rich wives in Xiangjiang don't have it.
The lives of those women in Chu Huan are nourishing.
Living in a mansion, driving a luxury car, having bodyguards around you, servants at home, and endless money, isn't this a proper wealthy life?
So when many girls saw Chu Huan setting his sights on the stage, they began to show their most beautiful side.
Some brave girls would even give Chu Huan a wink quietly.
But when they saw Chu Huan turn his attention to the audience, they all showed disappointed expressions.
Chu Huan walked to Huo Zhenting's side and said with a smile: "Start taking action now?"
Huo Zhenting said helplessly: "There is no way, there are competitors, so naturally we have to work hard!"
Chu Huan's eyes fell on the young man in the distance, and he asked with a smile: "Who is that?"
Huo Zhenting nodded and said: "Yes, Luo Kangrui from Eagle Real Estate."
This is indeed a strong opponent, Zhu Lingling's husband for the rest of his life.
Rumor has it that this person has been secretly in love with Zhu Lingling for many years.
But it is undeniable that Zhu Linling's life when she was married to Luo Kangrui in her second marriage was happier, at least judging from her performance.
The rules of the Huo family are too big. Even after Zhu Linling became the daughter-in-law of the Huo family, it was rumored that the jewelry she wore when attending events needed to be reported to the family and needed to be returned after use.
When Zhu Linling married Luo Kangrui, rumors...just rumors, Luo Kangrui took Zhu Linling to have their property notarized, which means that if the two divorced, Zhu Linling could easily take away half of Luo Kangrui's net worth!
Chu Huan smiled at Huo Zhenting and said, "Come on!"
Huo Zhenting looked at Chu Huan helplessly and said, "Why do I feel like you are gloating about others' misfortunes?"
"Is there any?" Chu Huan looked at Huo Zhenting seriously and said, "Then you must have seen it wrong."
"hehe!"
After a few words of teasing, Chu Huan returned to his seat. At this time, Fei Fei and Chen Sir Chen Xinjian, who were the hosts of this Miss Xiangjiang edition, came to Chu Huan and informed Chu Huan that the broadcast would officially start soon.
process.
Needless to say, Fei Fei, everyone knows that Qiu Guan's first wife is a famous comedian in Xiangjiang. As for whether those bad things are true or false, they haven't happened yet, so Chu Huan doesn't know.
And Chen Xinjian is a legendary figure in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. Later generations' impressions of him are more from his guest appearances in some classic Hong Kong films, such as "The Five Lucky Stars", "JC Story 3 Super JC" and "Fight Back to School"
3Dragon Celebrates the Year of the Rooster" and other films.
But in fact, Chen Xinjian himself was a police officer. In 1965, Chen Xinjian was admitted to the Royal Hong Kong Police Force, and in the next 9 years, he was promoted from a trainee inspector to a police officer of the Hong Kong Government CID Police.
In May 1974, the first bank robbery and hostage-taking case occurred in Hong Kong. Chen Xinjian, who had been promoted to Chief Inspector, as the criminal police commander and police spokesperson of Mong Kok Police Station, accepted an on-site interview by a TVB reporter. This interview became the first all-night broadcast in the history of Hong Kong broadcasting.
News live broadcast.
In 1975, Chen Xinjian was promoted to Superintendent of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Royal Hong Kong Police Force, responsible for criminal investigation and security in Kowloon.
In the same year, Chen Xinjian participated in the filming of a movie. After the movie became a hit, Chen Xinjian resigned from his position in the police force the following year and concentrated on developing in the entertainment industry.
At the same time, he is also the permanent honorary president of the Hong Kong Film Directors Association.
"Young Master Huan, you came today and brought a lot of excitement to our Miss Xiangjiang election!"
Chen Xinjian smiled and preached to Chu Huan.
"Sir Chen is joking. I'm just here to join in the fun. The most important thing is that everyone is happy!" Chu Huan said modestly.
Fei Fei said with a smile: "Yes, happiness is the most important thing. Mr. Huan, there were quite a few Miss Hong Kong candidates who told me just now that they would like to take a photo with you soon, Mr. Huan!"
"Really?" Chu Huan said with a smile: "Then I have entered the daughter country!"
Fei Fei smiled and said: "Then you have to be careful with this piece of Tang Monk meat!"
Seeing Chu Huan talking and laughing with Feifei and Chen Xinjian here, the other judges just smiled and nodded.
This year, when Chu Huan agreed to serve as the chief judge of Miss Xiangjiang, it was already destined that the other judges would come here just to kill people.
In the end, Chu Huan got up, Fei Fei, and Chen Xinjian walked onto the stage to take photos with the Miss Hong Kong candidates. However, they did not take photos with them separately, but took a photo with everyone together.
After the photos were taken, these Miss Hong Kong candidates returned to the backstage to change clothes and prepare for the Miss Hong Kong election that was about to begin.
Chu Huan also returned to his seat at this time. After a while, the audience began to enter the venue, and the on-site staff also began the final inspection.
Until the end, the lights began to dim, the lights on the stage began to illuminate, and the hosts Fei Fei and Chen Xinjian took the stage.
The 1977 Miss Hong Kong finals officially began.
It started with a song and dance performance by TVB artists. Chu Huan sat down and began to relax, watching this year's Miss Hong Kong election live.
The recorded Miss Hong Kong contest began in 1946, but there was no television station at that time. Instead, it was held by the Rechi Club in North Point, Hong Kong.
The so-called "election" is nothing more than a few young girls wearing sexy bikinis walking around in front of Chinese and foreign judges.
Bare shoulders, snow-white skin, coupled with the lines outlined by tights, such a visual feast set off a craze in the late 1940s. The venue, which could only accommodate 1,700 people, was eventually overcrowded.
More than 2,000 people entered.
But because this is the first edition, the competition system is very loose. It only requires that the contestants are between 16 and 60 years old and can find a swimsuit to wear. It can be summarized in six words: female gender, bikini.
This resulted in the uneven quality of the contestants. Among the only 11 beauties, many were still ballroom ladies and prostitutes.
However, in the third edition, a scandal broke out about the default winner. Similar scandals continued in the subsequent three editions. In addition, Miss Universe began to think about holding it, which directly led to the suspension of the Miss Hong Kong election.
It was not until 1973 that TVB took over the Miss Hong Kong election banner.
The "champion" is to choose a wife, who doesn't have to be too beautiful, the most important thing is to be virtuous and generous; the "runner-up" is to choose a girlfriend, who may be charming; the "third runner-up" is to choose a little sister, who is innocent and simple.
This is also an unspoken rule in the current Miss Xiangjiang election.
Just as the ladies from Xiangjiang were watching the stage show their style, several other judges below the stage were telling Chu Huan their feelings.
Previously, Huo Zhenting told Chu Huan that Chu Huan would ensure that Zhu Lingling would win the championship this year. In fact, Huo Zhenting didn't need to tell him, and several judges at the scene made such a choice.
Chu Huan naturally followed the trend.
In the end, Zhu Lingling won the titles of "Miss Photogenic" and "Miss Xiangjiang".
It was announced by Chu Huan that the previous Miss Xiangjiang presented the award to Zhu Lingling.
When Zhu Lingling won the championship, there was a round of applause. It was obvious that everyone was very convinced of the selection result.
After the competition ended, Chu Huan saw that Huo Zhenting had walked out of the auditorium holding a bouquet of roses and went directly to the backstage where the Hong Kong sister was resting.
Ordinary viewers will definitely not be able to do this kind of thing, but who makes Huo Zhenting's identity different?
At the same time, Chu Huan also noticed Luo Kangrui. After seeing Huo Zhenting's behavior, Luo Kangrui's eyes were obviously a little lonely, but he still did nothing and left the scene together with the audience.
Chu Huan did not wait for Huo Zhenting deliberately. Anyway, there would be a celebration dinner for Miss Xiangjiang later. It would not be too late to talk about anything by then. He just didn't know if Huo Zhenting would have time to chat with him at that time.
After shaking hands with several judges and greetings, and agreeing to chat at the celebration banquet later, Chu Huan walked out of the recording studio.
However, Chu Huan's work was not over. Chu Huan had just walked out of the recording studio and was immediately surrounded by reporters on the scene. In fact, the reporters on the scene were very curious to see Chu Huan coming out so early.
Before this Miss Hong Kong election, how did the media in Hong Kong report that this Miss Hong Kong election was Chu Huan’s concubine selection competition? Now that the competition has just ended, shouldn’t Chu Huan go to the backstage of Miss Hong Kong to meet those Miss Hong Kong
Mingle?
Why did you come out so early?
But curiosity is curiosity, and those who should be interviewed should still be interviewed.
"Dr. Chu, what do you think of Miss Xiangjiang's title this time? Do you think Miss Zhu Linngling is well-deserved?"
Chu Huan stood there and said with a smile: "I think the applause from the audience has shown everything."
Then other reporters began to ask questions, and the questions they asked were all about the Miss Hong Kong election. If this continues, this interview will end with hello, hello, hello, everyone.
.
As a result, a reporter asked a question that had nothing to do with Miss Hong Kong this time.
In fact, the number of times Chu Huan appears in front of the public at this stage is too few, which makes everyone want to ask Chu Huan more questions.
"Director Chu, what do you think of Mr. Shao Yifu's appointment as the director of the Hong Kong Arts Festival, which has caused dissatisfaction among many people in the literary and art circles?"
A reporter asked Chu Huan seriously with a tape recorder.
Chu Huan looked at the reporter, just smiled disdainfully, and said: "The literary and art world, can they represent the literary and art world? Or what contribution have they made to this art festival? A group of people do nothing all day long.
They only criticize this and that with a pen in order to gain a sense of existence. Without Mr. Shao’s support, there is no guarantee that this art festival could be held. They don’t say thank you, but they talk nonsense. It’s simply
It’s so generous!”
Wow!!!!
Faced with Chu Huan's blunt answer, the scene immediately caused quite a stir. No one thought that Chu Huan would directly attack those people for Shao Yifu.
However, when they thought of everything Chu Huan had done before, they immediately understood what Chu Huan meant. Although Chu Huan had been out less often in recent years, Chu Huan had really pissed off a lot of people back then.
What's more, when Black and White Image was preparing for the Hong Kong Film Awards, Black and White Image was actually trolled by these people, but it was not Chu Huan who came out to respond, but Fang Jianhui, the general manager of Black and White Image.
What Fang Jianhui said at that time was similar to what Chu Huan is saying now.
I really dislike these commenters.
"Dr. Chu, if you say this, aren't you worried about the critics' attacks on black and white shadow movies?"
"Movies with black and white images have always served the general public in Hong Kong, not those few people who only know how to use a pen to create a sense of presence. Film is a popular art. If it cannot even serve the public, what kind of art is it?"
After Chu Huan answered this question, he left the scene directly. However, this time Chu Huan did not go to Li Xiaohe's office. Instead, he left TVB directly and took a car to the hotel where the celebration banquet was held.
There are already some people here, but Li Xiaohe, Shao Yifu and the Hong Kong ladies have not come yet.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Chu Huan's arrival immediately made him the focus of the scene, and many people exchanged greetings with Chu Huan.
"Young Master Huan, long time no see!"
Zhong Zhengwen also came to the scene today. After seeing Chu Huan, he walked over with a smile on his face while holding champagne.
Chu Huan glanced at the other party suspiciously, and then thought of the other party's identity, "Mr. Zhong, it's indeed been a long time since we last met."
Chu Huan did meet Zhong Zhengwen several times in Wuyue before, but it was only through a friend's introduction and a brief acquaintance, and there was no communication.
As the partner of the huge fraudster Chen Songqing, Zhong Zhengwen was the first to discover Chen Songqing's scam. After discovering Chen Songqing's scam, Zhong Zhengwen quickly withdrew and fled to Hong Kong in a panic, leaving behind a debt of 2.1 billion Hong Kong dollars and
It guaranteed a loan of HK$1.6 billion.
However, this man ran away a bit unethically. He just ran away without taking his son with him. So after the Jia Ning case broke out, his son followed the oldest money and debt law in Hong Kong, and the father's debt was repaid by the son, and he went to Stanley.
Gone to serve his sentence.
"I heard that Director Chu met with Chen Songqing two days ago?" Zhong Zhengwen said to Chu Huan with a smile.
Chu Huan nodded, pretending not to know anything and asked: "Young Master Zhong and Chen Songqing also know each other?"
"More than just acquaintance, Chen Songqing was able to get up because of the help of our Zhong family." Zhong Zhengwen said without any secret.
Chu Huan smiled and said, "Young Master Zhong has a good eye!"
"It's not bad!" Zhong Zhengwen said with a smile first, and then said to Chu Huan with a smile: "Young Master Huan, which one do you like in this year's Miss Hong Kong?"
Chu Huan shook his head and said: "Master Zhong is kidding!"
After saying that, Chu Huan left directly. This person was by no means as stupid as he appeared, but he was definitely not a shrewd person either. It would be better to have less contact with such people.
After a while, Li Xiaohe, Shao Yifu and others came to the scene with a group of Hong Kong ladies. The arrival of the Hong Kong ladies immediately made the entire reception lively. Many young men who were looking for beauty found their targets and greeted them.
Go up.
However, there is one exception, and that is this year’s champion Zhu Lingling.
There was no other way, Zhu Lingling was accompanied by Mr. Huo who was showing great attentiveness. She was just a girl. No one wanted to have any unpleasantness with Mr. Huo in this kind of thing.
Seeing Chu Huan talking to others there, Mr. Huo was about to take Zhu Lingling there, but saw Shao Yifu taking the initiative to walk towards Chu Huan at this time.
"Ah Huan, thank you for what happened just now!"
Obviously at this time, Yifu Shao already knew what had just happened at TVB. As Chu Huan said just now, this matter will be published in the newspaper tomorrow. It is obvious that Yifu Shao is under a lot less pressure. It is foreseeable that those film critics, reviewers,
All firepower will definitely be focused on Chu Huan.
Chu Huan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Sixth Uncle, you're welcome. I don't look down on those people at all, but it was just someone who visited me and I just told the truth!"
Although Chu Huan said this, it fell into the ears of Shao Yifu. It was obvious that this was just Chu Huan's excuse. Chu Huan was embarrassed to speak out after seeing that he had succeeded him as the chairman of the Xiangjiang Art Festival.
Shao Yifu was grateful from the bottom of his heart for Chu Huan's behavior this time. A person who grew up like Shao Yifu still valued his own face very much.
And those film critics and commentators represent the right to speak of some people. Although they cannot be an actual blow, they are disgusting to watch.
Shao Yifu really didn't like dealing with these people.
Referring to others, I think so. Chu Huan, who now has a higher social status in Xiangjiang than me, should also think so, but now Chu Huan still said those words that can make those people explode.
This feeling moved Shao Yifu a little.
"Ah Huan, in fact, those people are just talking. If you care about them, you will lose your identity." Shao Yifu said.
Chu Huan chuckled and said: "Uncle Six, you know me. People always say that if you are bitten by a dog, you can't bite it back. We are people with status and we can't bite it back, but we can hit it back with a stick.
!
Otherwise, these people really take themselves seriously!"
Seeing what Chu Huan said, Shao Yifu could only smile bitterly, but he still said: "Anyway, thank you for this matter, Ah Huan. I will remember the favor. If you have anything to do in the future, just say it!"
Chu Huan said with a smile: "Then I will remember what you said, Uncle Liu. When I go to find you, you can't pretend that you haven't said this!"
Shao Yifu laughed and said, "What I'm worried about now is that Ah Huan, you won't tell me anything!"
After saying that, when he saw Huo Zhenting and Zhu Lingling beside him, Shao Yifu left with a smile.
"Did Shao Yifu just come to say thank you?" Huo Zhenting also knew what had just happened at TVB.
Chu Huan ignored Huo Zhenting and said to Zhu Lingling with a smile: "Ms. Zhu, your performance on stage was very good just now. I just don't know if you are interested in participating in TVB's TV shooting or black and white video, Shaw Brothers' movie
Did you take the photo?"
Although Chu Huan has no shares in Shaw Brothers, Shao Yifu has shares in TVB and occasionally borrows TVB artists to film movies, but it is not as convenient as in another time and space.
Zhu Lingling smiled sheepishly.
"Hey, hey, Ah Huan, there's no one like you who can poach someone in person!" Huo Zhenting said with a smile.
"Mr. Huo, now you are poaching our company in front of me." Chu Huan joked.
After Zhu Lingling became Miss Hong Kong, she signed an artist contract with TVB. However, whether the artist contract is implemented or not depends on Huo Tsar Huang's wishes!
