Chapter 10 Gossip
After completing the 747 lease agreement, Shen Chong left Seattle and ran to Wichita, Kansas with great enthusiasm, intending to buy his own private jet.
Speaking of private jets, in terms of fame, range, speed and luxury, Gulfstream Aerospace's Gulfstream series business jets are the best, but unfortunately, Gulfstream 11 was discontinued in 19RU. Although Gulfstream 111 was successfully tested, it has not yet obtained a license from NASA. Boeing and Bombardier began to enter the private jet field in the 1990s.
Therefore, there are only a few high-end private jets available for sunburst selection. One is the award series of Cessna Aircraft Company. When Reagan was the governor of California, he bought this type of aircraft, and the other is the King of Aircraft Company's Aircraft Company's P5 series. The headquarters of these two aircraft companies are in Wichita, Kansas. Although Wichita has a population of only more than 10,000, it produces Western World UU aircraft, known as the "World Aircraft City".
The certificate series and the HP5 series are both jet aircraft, with large internal space and can take more than ten passengers, with a cruise speed of more than RU0 kilometers per hour, and can arrive in more than two hours from Guangzhou to Beijing. However, after looking at the prototype and information, Shen Chong finally chose the Air China King 0. This is a turboprop aircraft, which can only take up seven passengers at most, and the cruise speed is only more than 500 kilometers per hour. However, this aircraft has two great advantages. First, it is a mature general model, which can not only be used as a commercial business aircraft, but also as a military training aircraft. Therefore, there are ready-made aircraft in stock. As long as the internal space is modified as required, it can be picked up soon. The other two aircraft have to be booked in advance and have to wait for a year and a half to get it. Second, this aircraft is relatively simple to operate. After training and proficiency, you can drive alone without a co-pilot.
Fly your own plane, and it's too windy
Airplanes are one of men's ultimate dreams. Shen Chong was so happy in Kansas. After staying in the airplane warehouse for seven or eight days, he reluctantly left Haoke Beach Aircraft Company and embarked on his return to Los Angeles. The highly anticipated "Star Wars Empire Strikes Counterattack" will premiere on May 1. As George Lucas's close "Oriental Friend" and a business partner of Century Fox, he was also invited to attend the premiere ceremony held at the Chinese Theater.
Although Shen Chong did not get the opportunity to invest in Star Wars, he became friends with George Lucas, a loyal fan of Kurosawa, and then naturally became a shareholder of Industrial Light and Magic, quietly gaining channels to track the latest movie technology.
Most of the dozens of movies invested by Twentieth Century Fox in 1979 and 19RU lost money, but because the ace "Star Wars" was too expected, the stock price remained high and never fell. It was difficult to attack because of the storm. It only signed a distribution agreement with Fox to observe its distribution network in North America.
"Hey, I'll give you all the extra ten tickets." Chen Chong handed Lily the movie tickets for "Star Wars" and said, "These tickets can be sold for hundreds of dollars. You owe me a favor, remember to pay them back in the future."
"Cousin, you're so merciless." Lily put the movie ticket on the white coffee table next to the swimming pool, pressed it with a towel, then stepped forward and held his arm, and said with a smile: "How could you bargain with your sister?"
"Go and go, don't be fucked. Brothers are clear about the score, let alone you are still a girl." Lily wore a three-point bikini with turbulent waves, white and tender, and Shen Chong felt a little dry. She quickly broke free from her arm and said, "Girls are outgoing, sooner or later, you're from someone else's family, so it's better to figure it out clearly."
"Fethical Man" Lily gave him a blank look, then folded her hands together, and a fish jumped into the swimming pool, with a beautiful posture and pleasing to the eye.
"Tsk tsk, I don't know how many people will be despaired in the future."
"Fortunately Lily has no idea of acting." Zhang Aijia put down the book in her hand, looked up at him, and said, "Otherwise we can't live."
"Acting is not just about looking at the face. A silly sister like her is just a vase." Chen Chong sat down on the lounge chair next to her, picked up the iced drink, took a sip, then hugged his head with both hands, lay down, and said, "When did Brother Chen leave?"
"After the filming was finished the day before yesterday, he left that night. Director Li Xing was urging him." Zhang Aijia looked at him and asked, "Don't you go to sleep for a while? The premiere of the evening will definitely be delayed for a long time."
"For me, three or four hours of flight, it's a piece of cake and I'm completely adapting." Chen Chong narrowed his eyes and said, "This time I took a very fast shot. It took only two weeks to finish the rest."
"Last time you killed the chicken to warn the monkey, drove away those disobedient people, and took another $100,000 as a bonus. It was much more efficient. Those Americans fought hard for Yuhuo." Zhang Aijia also learned from him and said, "After you wrote those songs, he seemed to have found a feeling overnight, completely integrated into the role, and played very well. Many shots were passed by one, so they were shot quickly."
"Where is Brigitte Lin?"
"She has adjusted and she acted very well." Zhang Aijia hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, Qingxia asked me to beg you for something."
"It's all friends, what's the matter?"
"Qin Xianglin proposed to her, but she didn't know how to respond. She wanted to ask you for advice."
"It's really a mess." Chen Chong turned his head and looked at her, and said, "Love is a matter between two people. Whether it's appropriate or not, only he knows how others can get involved. She is acting in a mess?"
"What do you say?" Zhang Aijia smashed him with a book and said, "They beg you because they trust you. It's okay if you don't help. What's so unpleasant to say."
"It's useless for her to look for me, because I'm a big radish in my heart," Chen Chong smiled and said, "For her emotional problems, I'm afraid I have to find a monk, take a sword of wisdom, chop and chop to cut Yu Jing. I can't figure it out."
Although Chen Chong is not very concerned about gossip in the entertainment industry, he often travels between Hong Kong and Taiwan, and has movies and magazines under his jurisdiction. He is well-informed and naturally knows Brigitte Lin’s love life status in recent years - to put it nicely, it’s called colorful, and to put it nicely, it’s called a mess.
In 1974, when filming the second film in her acting career, "Pure Love", Brigitte Lin had an affair with Qin Xianglin, who was in love with Xiao Fangfang. However, at that time, she was still a newcomer to the film industry, and Qin Xianglin soon married Xiao Fangfang, and this scandal was not taken seriously.
In 1978, Qiong Yao helped Brigitte Lin and a writer living in the United States named Zhao Ning. Soon, "Minsheng Daily", one of the three major newspapers in Taiwan, published a photo of her holding hands with the writer on the headline of the entertainment page under the title "Brigit Lin's public boyfriend Zhao Ning". Also in 1978, Qin Xianglin and Xiao Fangfang divorced, and the media also reported from time to time about his pursuit of Brigitte Lin.
But not long after, when Brigitte Lin went to the United States to film "The Relentless Wasteland and Lovely Sky", she sparked a spark with the male protagonist Qin Han, had scandals, and the evidence was conclusive - Qin Han took many swimsuit photos of her on the beach, one of which was leaked and was published in a Taiwanese newspaper. Two idol stars, one with a wife and the other with a boyfriend, actually got together. In the conservative 1970s, when this news appeared, it is conceivable how much criticism it would cause.
Brigitte Lin thought she had found true love, so she broke up with the American writer. However, Qin Han lost the link. His wife Shao Qiaoyin was quite scheming. In order to guard the marriage, she did not make a fuss after Qin Han returned to Taiwan. She just followed Qin Han to the set every day, showed her gentleness everywhere, and bought a camera, and took some warm and intimate photos from time to time to post to the media to create a happy and harmonious family atmosphere. Qin Han was indecisive and had no manliness, so she never mentioned the divorce since then...
In 1979, she and Qin Xianglin filmed "An Unforgettable Day" together and went to Thailand to attend a royal party. Soon the newspaper published the news that "Loves and Enemies reunited, Charlie Lin and Brigitte traveled to Thailand", so "The two Qins fought for forest" became a hot topic in Taiwan.
I don’t know what Brigitte Lin thought. She was in the whirlpool and should keep a low profile and wait for the storm to pass away. She took the initiative to catch the guns of the media. While filming "Unforgettable Day", she also starred in a movie "Love Run", with Shao Qiaoyin as an investor and directed and starring Qin Han. The result is conceivable. The media reported the film scenes of her and Qin Han kissing in the water, saying that they conveyed their feelings through filming.
After filming "Love Run", Brigitte Lin then filmed "Colorful Clouds in the Sky" with Qin Han. In the movie, there was a scene where the male and female protagonists got married. A reporter from a Taiwanese media filmed this shot and then used "Qin Han, is Brigitte Lin really married?" as the news title. As soon as this report came out, Shao Qiaoyin could no longer bear it. After a big fight, she ran away from home and revealed the news that Qin Han personally admitted to falling in love with Brigitte Lin to the media. Soon, "Minsheng Daily" reported the incident in a full page, pointing out that Brigitte Lin was the third party to destroy the marriage.
Since her debut, Brigitte Lin has always been shown as a pure jade girl. There have been a series of negative scandals, so movie fans naturally can't stand it. After "Love Run", the box office was extremely bleak. Some people even posted banners "Refusing to watch Brigitte Lin's movies" at the entrance of the cinema. The phone calls at home were constantly, almost all of them scolding her. I received a lot of letters every day, none of which said good things. In this case, it is not difficult to understand that she was exposed to "doing suicide by taking medicine" at the Asia-Pacific Film Festival.
In April, when Shen Chong transferred from Taipei to the United States, he read the newspaper that Qin Han was still entangled with Shao Qiaoyin - Shao Qiaoyin was about to divorce, but Qin Han was unwilling to divorce on the grounds that he did not want his children to grow up in a broken family.
In this case, why bother provoking a beautiful woman?
