Chen Qi didn't know that the Taiwanese film industry was in a mess because of the Golden Bear Award. ♞♞♞♞♞ As May was approaching, he was going to Shanghai to visit Gong Xue's parents. Before leaving, he had to arrange his work here properly. The promotion of "Tai Chi 3" started. This time, there was no tricks before, and it was more conventional. As the saying goes, things never happen more than three times, which makes sense. "Tai Chi" has three parts in three years, and the audience's interest in this series is only the last jump. "Tai Chi 3" broke away from the historical narrative of the first two parts, and it was naturally lacking in heaviness. It fabricated a "Twelve Countries Undifferentiated Comprehensive Martial Arts Arena Competition", the theme of which was to fight, fight, fight, and then fight the Chinese and the foreigners. Of course, in terms of action choreography, the level is even better than before, and Chen Qi expected it to be 18-20 million. Ringo Lam became a busy man, preparing for "Happy Ghost 2" and "The Express" at the same time, and Benny Chan was stuffed into "The Express" as a runner, and he enjoyed it. The story of this film is roughly as follows: Li Lianjie is a deliveryman. One day, he delivers a package and finds that it is a living person. He can't help but open it and see that Qiu Shuzhen is inside. She plays the daughter of a gangster boss. Her father offended another boss, who kidnapped Qiu Shuzhen and pretended to ask for a ransom from him, but actually wanted to sell her to Europe... The villain is played by Yu Rongguang. Yu Rongguang is from Beijing and his father is a Peking Opera actor.
He started learning martial arts at the age of 11. After watching "Shaolin Temple", he had the idea of making a movie. He took the training class of Beijing Film Academy but failed. Later, he was selected by Xu Xiaoming and starred in "Kapok Casket". He was the second villain, but he was more outstanding than the male lead. This may be his characteristic: he can't hold up as the male lead, but he is very eye-catching as the second male lead. "Fatal Express" was still early for filming, and Chen Qi specifically asked him to come to Hong Kong in advance, one is to prepare for the promotion of "Kapok Casket", and the other is to get familiar with the working environment in Hong Kong and get familiar with Li Lianjie and others. "Knock, knock, knock!" "Xiao Chen? Oh, what's that big box!" That night, Shi Hui opened the door and saw Chen Qi coming in with two big boxes. She took one of them. Fu Mingxian came over happily: "Brother, what is this?" "Clothes!" "What are you doing with the clothes? Are you buying them for me?" "None of your business, go play!" Chen Qi opened the box and said with a smile: "Since the leader told me about the wedding, I have started preparing. I have ordered three sets of clothes for Sister Xue. Please help me with the details!" "You seem careless, but you are more anxious than anyone else." Fu Qi also came over and looked at the clothes. One was a women's small suit and trousers, fashionable and neat; one was a red cheongsam; the last one was unfinished, with only a large photo, a Western-style wedding dress. "When will this be worn?" Shi Hui asked. "One for taking photos, one for the bride, and one for the banquet." "Not bad, not bad, the styles are all very beautiful, Xiao Gong will look good in it... Old Fu, look at this waist, Xiao Gong's waist is too thin, I can't do that, I'm too old..." Shi Hui pinched the waist of the cheongsam and showed it to Fu Qi. Fu Qi was very skilled: "You are the most beautiful at any age!" The two of them were showing off their love, and Fu Mingxian said angrily: "Brother, are you really going to get married?" "Yes!" "Then, then, then..." With her parents around, she didn't dare to say anything shocking. Chen Qi smiled and rubbed her head, not taking it to heart, a 13-year-old kid, I'm not a pervert! "Xiao Chen, who are you going to invite from Hong Kong?" Shi Hui asked. "You can go." "And Nansheng!" "Oh, yes, there are also Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng, four people are enough." "That's right, you invite a group of Hong Kong stars to attend the wedding, which is not good for both the inside and the outside." Fu Qi nodded. "Then when will you go back?" "Maybe on the 30th. I'll go to Sister Xue's house on May 1st. We've made an appointment." "Then you're too busy!"
"No way. I've already pledged my life to the country!" Promise your big head! Fu Mingxian hummed. Hong Kong pop music developed rapidly in the 1980s, and record companies flourished, with PolyGram and Huaxing being the most popular. PolyGram is a label jointly founded by Germany's Polydor and Philips. Huaxing is a record company under TVB. Last year, it held a "TVB8 Global Chinese Newcomer Singing Competition". Anita Mui won the championship and signed with Huaxing. Leslie Cheung and Roman Tam are also in Huaxing. These two companies beat Warner, Sony, EMI and so on in the 1980s, and the two heroes competed for supremacy. The last thing Chen Qi did before he went back was not movies, but music. On the last day of April, Hong Kong EMI Records welcomed an unexpected guest. General Manager Zheng Bogao personally received him and led Chen Qi to visit the company and explain everything. He was very surprised to learn that Mr. Chen was coming, but he was calm after hearing the purpose of his visit. It was a collaboration! Not surprising. After a brief walk, the two entered the recording studio, where a man in his 30s was recording a song. He sang with a ferocious face, emotionally and vigorously. "Can I listen to it?" "Please!" Chen Qi picked up the headphones and listened to a Cantonese song, "Ahaha, I want to fly to the sky...Ahaha, like a bird flying in the sky..." He took off the headphones and commented: "It has a strong creamy taste and a Western style." "Mr. Chen is very knowledgeable!" Zheng Bo praised and said, "This man is called Lo Kuan Ting. He went to Seattle when he was very young and grew up listening to the Beatles and Bob Dylan. He was fired from his resident singing job in a hotel before." "Then how did you choose him?" "No way, his girlfriend is Miss Tang..." After Zheng Bogao finished speaking, he explained: "She is the granddaughter of Tang Jiyao, and was introduced by Miss Tang Shuchen." "I speak directly, Mr. Zheng, please don't mind. EMI is a large international company after all, how did it get to this point? It can't even produce a leading singer?" "EMI used to make Mandarin records in Shanghai, and it still makes Mandarin records when it came to Hong Kong. A few years ago, there was a boom in Cantonese songs, and PolyGram signed Guan Zhengjie, Xu Guanjie, and Alan Tam... one step ahead, every step ahead!" Zheng Bogao shook his head and sighed, and called Chen Qi to the office for a detailed discussion. Chen Qi looked back at Lowell Lo, who still has some hair now, not bald. This person's music experience is very strange. The music he composed for movies and the songs he wrote are very popular, but his own albums often flop because they are too niche. Just to name a few representative works, the theme song of "A Chinese Odyssey" "Love of a Lifetime", the music in which Chow Yun-fat appeared in "God of Gamblers", and "Looking Back" were all written by him. In short, it's okay to write for others, but it's too literary to do it yourself. Before EMI, there were George Lam, Danny Chan, and Roman Tam, but they all jumped ship, and the situation was awkward. There were no big singers, only Teresa Teng, Frances Yip, and Vincent Yeh to support the scene. The two entered the office, and Chen Qi said directly: "I want to expand the music business, but I lack the relevant resources. I want to co-found a record company with you." "What's the specific method?" "The total capital is 3 million. According to the investment ratio, I will hold 70% of the shares and you will hold 30%. You will be responsible for album production and distribution, and I will do the promotion." "Where is the singer?" "Liu Dehua!" "One person?" "Yes, currently one person!"
