"When will your "Killer Trench" be released?"

"It's coming, September 10th." Jackie Chan responded vaguely while eating, and said casually: "Boss Shao said that he would also hold a premiere when it was released."

On his 2014 UU birthday, Jackie Chan reviewed himself and said that he was young and energetic before, and did not understand social etiquette, and offended many people. He also gave an example, saying that in the 1990s, he went to the crew to visit the crew, and then he found a restaurant to treat him to dinner. As a result, before Zhang Aijia had moved his chopsticks, he finished eating and then checked out and left. Zhang Aijia was so angry that he ignored him for more than ten years... (Note)

However, Chen Chong himself is also a person who doesn't care much about etiquette. He has no disgust for Jackie Chan's generous and unpretentious behavior. Instead, he feels kind. He smiled and said, "Then I'll go to Boss Shao to ask for an invitation tomorrow and enter Hollywood's first movie. You must watch it."

"It's better for Mr. Chen to support him. You can just go there any invitation letter."

"The world is really unfair. The richer people are, the less money they need, and they are popular everywhere they go." Huang Zhan held a red wine glass and said to Chen Chong with a smile: "The ticket price of Jiahe Theater is not cheap. Puut and I haven't been there for a long time to watch a movie. God of Wealth, why not get a few invitation letters to give it to me?"

Lin Yanni rolled her eyes and said, "I'm so poor."

"According to the mainland, this is called a big eater."

"Does there any big eaters who eat movie tickets?"

Huang Zhan was free and easy, Lin Yanni was erotic, and the two were flirting, which made the house laugh, and the room was filled with a lively atmosphere.

Nine guests came tonight, Gu Liwei, Zhou Liang Shuyi and his wife, Brigitte Lin and Jackie Chan, Huang Zhan and Lin Yanni, and a couple, Lu Guanting and his wife Tang Shuchen.

Needless to mention the previous few, they are all friends who are familiar to both Chen Chong and Zhang Aijia, while Lu Guanting and his wife have other connections - Lu Guanting is the musician of "Love at Dawn", and the article Zhang Aijia, who was called "acquaintances" by Chen Chong in the afternoon, was written by Tang Shuchen.

Chen Chong plagiarized ten songs in Los Angeles for Leslie Cheung as an interlude in the movie, shocking everyone. Zhang Aijia was very happy, so he asked him to help make the soundtrack for "Love at Dawn". Chen Chong was a half-toned "talented man" and it was okay to plagiarize popular songs. After all, he often sang karaoke in his previous life and remembered the melody, but writing pure music based on the plot of the movie was not something he could do. He had to push and make all kinds of excuses to escape. In the end, he found Lu Guanting and recommended it to Zhang Aijia.

Lu Guanting is a top musician in Hong Kong. In addition to compose and produces records for others, he has also made soundtracks for many movies, such as "Favorite", "God of Gambling", "Bloody Heroes", "Shaolin Football", "Thief of Time", etc. He has won two Academy Awards and one Golden Horse Award. His most well-known work is the interlude "Love in a Lifetime" written for "A Chinese Odyssey", which can be called a song that moves China and touches countless people.

The reason why I recommend Lu Guanting is that he is indeed talented, and the other is that he is young, his music is very "new" and fits the times. It is more suitable for soundtracks for urban love movies than Gu Jiahui and other old musicians. And it is true. The soundtrack made by Lu Guanting for "Love at Dawn" made Zhang Aijia very satisfied, and he became friends with the couple.

After graduating from Seattle University and Corysh Music School in the United States in 1977, Lu Guanting returned to Hong Kong to sing in the lounge. He did not become famous at this time. Chen Chong was able to find him in the vast crowd because of his wife Tang Shuchen.

Tang Shuchen is also one of the talented women in Hong Kong. He has written many articles and is good at using simple words to describe sincere emotions. Although he is not as famous as Lin Yanni, Yishu and others, many people have actually heard of her works. Because Lu Guanting suffered from dyslexia since childhood, reading words are like reading heavenly books, which are all confusing and confusing, so he can only compose music and cannot write lyrics. Most of his musical works and lyrics are written by Tang Shuchen, including the song "Love in Life".

Chen Chong met Tang Shuchen because Tang Shuxuan, known as the "Godmother of Hong Kong Film New Wave", is her cousin, and Tang Shuxuan is one of the famous members of the jury of the Golden Star Awards.

The world is really small, and the six-degree separation theory really exists...

Lu Guanting is not tall, with a round head, short eyebrows, small eyes, and a beard, giving people a slippery and mischievous feeling. His words and deeds all have the taste of a middle-class hippie. He asked in his insult, "Did the director of "The Killer Trench" film Bruce Lee's "Did the Dragon and Tiger Fight" before?"

"It's him, CI." When talking about the director, Jackie Chan shook his head and said dissatisfiedly: "I don't like him, he is arrogant and stubborn, a typical American."

He took a sip of wine and said, "I guess the box office of "Killer Haul" in Hong Kong will not be very good, it may be only a few million."

"Peote", released at the beginning of the year, received more than 13 million Hong Kong dollars, overwhelming "Crazy Raid" became a new movie box office record in Hong Kong. Although it was surpassed by the shocking UU 10,000 in July, the production cost of "Peote" was only 20,000 Hong Kong dollars. The two movies were not the same order of magnitude, and the ticket price of "Peote" is more expensive than other movies. Therefore, although Sammo Hung's net worth has risen sharply, Jackie Chan is still recognized as the most box office star in Hong Kong.

"Killer Trench" is a big production that Jiahe invested 4 million US dollars to promote Jackie Chan into the international market. Now that the movie has not been released yet, he actually said despicable words first, which surprised everyone here.

According to memory, "The Killer's Treasure" only received more than 5 million Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong, which is indeed not a top-notch player...

Chen Chong became interested and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Jackie Chan put down his wine glass and talked about the various issues of filming "The Killer Trench" in the United States. For example, his action style is completely different from Bruce Lee, but the director blindly shoots it in the way Bruce Lee. For example, he likes to design different martial arts movements according to changes in the surrounding environment, but the director requires that he behave step by step and not move around. For example, he likes to use multiple cameras to shoot complex choreographing actions at the same time, while the director insists on shooting with a single-player fixed angle... (Note)

Chen Chong listened and sighed, indeed, none of the superstars became famous by luck. Jackie Chan was a Peking Opera martial artist since elementary school. He was not a professional, but he was very good at talking about movies, how to play, how to shoot, how to change the story, how to make movements, how to arrange the scenes, how to change the camera position, how to change the system, and how to think, he even left the dining table and performed a set of actions on the spot. His words and deeds were passionate, imaginative and infectious, and even a few female guests who were not very interested in action movies were watched with relish.

No wonder among the hundreds of dragon and tiger martial artists in Hong Kong, he became an international superstar alone...

No wonder many of his works are written, directed and acted by themselves...

This is someone who truly loves movies and fights for movies...

"Anyway, this drama does not fit my style. I'm afraid Hong Kong audiences don't like it." Jackie Chan finished his explanation and sat back on the dining table, while eating, and said: "Americans don't understand what a kung fu movie is. You will punch and kick me, and it's boring."

"Americans don't understand, you can teach them." Gu Liwei said with a smile: "You can fight so well, you will be able to teach them a few more times."

"It's useless. Americans have eyes on their heads and don't listen to me at all. Moreover, I have poor English and cannot communicate."

"The people in Hollywood are the smartest and most greedy monsters in the world. When dealing with them, they cannot use words, but money." Chen Chong twisted his fingers and made the move to count the money, saying, "Next time I bring a box of money, give money if I am obedient, and drive away if I am disobedient, and ensure that it works."

"Mr. Chen." Tang Shuchen also laughed and said, "This move is only suitable for you and cannot be done by others."

"Hahaha, sorry, I accidentally exposed the nouveau riche's face."

",1, drink all the wine from the nouveau riche's house in one cup."

"Don't just chat and try these Chaozhou dishes. AIu specially invited a master to prepare and deliver it to you."

"When will your TV station play "Stars, Moon and Sun"? I think that drama is so classic..."

"Uncle Zhan, are there any new works recently? I'm not talking about music, I'm not talking about essays."

"Hey, I'll tell indecent jokes in front of the lady, and I'll be punished for drinking."

After traveling through time, Chen Chong traveled across the Taiwan Strait and the Three Lands, fighting countless times in the sea of ​​meat and wine. Zhang Aijia is also a very sociable person. The guests that night were all friends with similar temperaments, so the dinner party kept laughing and topics, which lasted for more than two hours before it ended.

"Come on, eat fruit." Zhang Aijia put the exquisite fruit platter on the living room coffee table, and then said: "It's rare to get together. Everyone sit for a while and don't rush to leave. It's still early."

Lin Yanni held the teacup and walked to the record machine by the wall, flipped through a few vinyl records, and asked, "Why don't there be a newest album?"

"I took that to the office." Zhang Aijia pointed to the tape recorder behind Huang Zhan and said, "There are only tapes at home."

"The two versions of this record are very nice, and the first ones are classic." Tang Shuchen also leaned over to cover the record and said, "I like the lyrics of "I" very much... I am me, a firework of different colors... It's really well written."

"Yes, I'll definitely play this album as long as I go out and drive recently. I've been playing in Mandarin and Cantonese. I've been listening to it for a week and I don't feel bored at all."

The core of the ten songs that Chen Chong plagiarized came from the album "Pampering" produced by Rolling Stone for Leslie Cheung in 1995. This album sold 2 million copies that year and was called a "market-saving work" by the media. It is a very classic album. Now it has been released 15 years in advance. The effect is equally good. Not only has the sales volume but also has excellent reputation. It has only been released a few days ago. It is considered to be a classic album that will occupy an important position in the history of Hong Kong pop music. Because before that, the records released in Hong Kong were either various cover songs or collections of TV series theme songs. There has never been an album with clear concepts and unified themes. Some music critics even believe that the influence of this album on Hong Kong pop music is no less than that of "The Tiger and the Viagra" on the Hong Kong film industry.

"AI is really kind to you. Not only has it given you wealth, but it also gives you talent." Huang Zhan turned around and turned on the recorder, took out the tape inside, then exclaimed, and asked, "Alan Tam's new album will be released so soon?"

Chen Chong was slightly stunned. This was the tape, with only handwritten song names on it, and there was no singer's name. So he said, "Uncle Zhan, how do you know this is his album?"

"The song here is all the lyrics written by Zheng Guojiang and I, of course I know." Huang Zhan weighed the tape and asked, "Why, are you interested in him again?"

Chen Chong laughed and said, "Jiayi TV is going to open a music station. I want to get an advertising song for the TV station and am looking for a singer."

Zhou Liangshuyi's eyes lit up and she asked quickly: "What song, have you written it?"

"11u I didn't say I wrote it." Chen Chong spread his hand, pointed at Huang Zhan and Lu Guanting, and said with a smile: "Tonight is the Hongmen Banquet. I specially invite these two masters to come here to arrest him and write songs."
