PS: There was not enough time last night, and the dialogue between Yang Ye and Xu Ke was not finished. It has been completed now. If you haven’t read it, please go back and read it. Sorry!
……
From 1992 to 1993, there was a shortage of people everywhere in the Hong Kong film industry, which allowed many newcomers to quickly rise to the top.
Many directors and actors who were originally making TV series have switched to making movies to make money.
Some behind-the-scenes photographers, screenwriters, martial arts instructors and other professionals also quickly picked up the guidance.
Xu Ke's predicament is actually also the predicament of Hong Kong's major film companies. From this time on, the bosses behind Hong Kong filmmakers have actually transformed from the four major companies in Hong Kong to the eight major film studios in Taiwan.
Regarding all this, Yang Ye just watched with cold eyes. Not only did he let the company's leading directors and superstars go out to make money, he also simply stopped many filming plans and started a rental business.
It's a bit funny for a big company to follow its original subordinates to get money.
At the opening ceremony of "Speed", a reporter sharply asked this question: "Will Yang Ji no longer invest in movies in the future?"
Yang Ye smiled and said: "Why do you say this? Isn't today the power-on ceremony?"
"But the big-name directors and actors of Yang Ji have basically gone out on their own. They all make their own movies. Yang Ji has made very few movies now, right?"
"I have said it a long time ago, people who don't let others make money must have something wrong with their heads.
They are all masters in their own right now. It is normal for them to go out independently. We are all good partners now.
Besides, who said we, Yang Kee, are not making movies now?
"The Wedding Banquet" by Taiwanese director Li Bian won the Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival this year.
Mainland director Kai Zige's "Farewell My Concubine" won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival last month.
Both of these movies were invested and produced by Yang Ji.
And my "Kung Fu" just won the Golden Goblet Award at the Shanghai International Film Festival.
"Kung Fu" will be released next month, everyone remember to come and support it! ”
"The Wedding Banquet" and "Farewell My Concubine" were both invested and produced by Xu Feng, and they won two international awards in a row, with amazing results.
After Yang Ye finished the introduction, he also did not forget to advertise for the upcoming "Kung Fu".
"But "The Wedding Banquet" and "Farewell My Concubine" are not considered Hong Kong films, right? Could it be said that Yang Ji will mainly support Taiwanese and mainland directors in the future?"
Yang Ye asked back: "How come movies produced by Hong Kong film companies are not considered Hong Kong movies?"
The reporter was speechless for a moment.
Yang Ye patted Chen Musheng next to him on the shoulder again and said: "Let me introduce to you, this is Chen Musheng, the director of our "Speed of Life and Death".
Ah Sheng is a very outstanding young man. Some time ago, he helped Xu Ke Studio film "The Crane and the Needle", starring Wei Zai, Amei and Jiahui. Jiahui is here today, come and say a few words to everyone. ”
Guan Zhilin stood up and said: "Hello everyone, our movie "The Crane and the Needle" will be released in all major theaters in Hong Kong in mid-August this year. This is a very exciting martial arts movie. Please come and support it."
Well, the couple started advertising, and the reporter was speechless.
This reporter originally wanted to ask: Why is it that when everyone is rushing to shoot Hong Kong movies, Yang Ji will reduce the number of Hong Kong movies and go to invest in mainland and Taiwanese movies.
Unfortunately, he didn't ask anything. Yang Ye believes that since films such as "The Wedding Banquet" and "Farewell My Concubine" are produced by Hong Kong film companies, they are Hong Kong films.
In fact, some media have realized very early that Yang Ye has been deliberately blurring the boundaries between Hong Kong films and other Chinese films, which is why there is such a problem today.
Yang Ye would not admit this kind of thing. There are some things that can be done but not said.
Later, a reporter asked what kind of movie "Speed" is. Yang Ye gave a general introduction and said that this movie is mainly based on real shooting and will not use special effects.
But he emphasized that the scenes in "Speed of Life and Death" are very exciting and will definitely be a feast for the eyes of the audience.
After saying that, he asked the staff to worship God and turn on the phone.
After a group of reporters finished the interview, they were about to leave. Suddenly, a beautiful-looking woman with a plump figure broke in.
The woman ran towards Yang Ye, speaking Mandarin, and shouted loudly: "You heartless man, let me see where you are hiding today!"
Damn it, when the reporters who were about to leave saw this scene, they went crazy with joy. They all picked up their cameras and took pictures of the woman and Yang Ye.
A reporter even recognized that this woman was a third-level film actress. The movie "Legend of Bei Mei" she filmed with Wang Jing last year was very popular.
Damn it, Yang Ye actually had an affair with a third-level movie actress. This incident will definitely make the front page headlines tomorrow.
Not only the reporters, but everyone at the scene looked at Yang Ye involuntarily.
Although their expressions were different, they secretly speculated in their hearts that Yang Ye was a romantic guy, and today he was overturned, and someone actually came to his door.
Some people secretly envy Yang Yeyan's good fortune. This woman is really good-looking.
Some people secretly laughed at Yang Ye for being merciless and causing trouble.
Guan Zhilin glanced at the woman, then at Yang Ye, feeling bitter in her heart, stamping her feet fiercely, and turned away.
The reporters were even more happy. Good guy, two women are fighting for a husband. This is so damn exciting. They took pictures again.
Yang Ye somehow enjoyed Duan Zhengchun's treatment, and couldn't help but feel speechless for a while, secretly complaining: Damn, even if you hold a launch conference, you can get into such trouble!
He said helplessly: "Miss, who are you looking for?"
The woman was very aggressive when she came, but she was very polite when she saw Yang Ye. She stood in front of Yang Ye and said, "Boss Yang, I'm sorry for disturbing your press conference. I really had no other choice, so I came here." Your comment.”
Yang Ye waved his hand and said: "Just tell me who you are, who you are looking for, and what you want."
The woman pointed to the cast behind Yang Ye and said: "My name is Le Hui. I was originally an actor from the Mainland. I came to see Luo Lie today.
He deceived me into coming to Hong Kong and said he wanted to marry me, but it turned out that he already had a wife. If you want to abandon me now, Boss Yang, you have to give me some advice. ”
As soon as these words came out, the reporters at the scene couldn't help but sigh. Damn it, it was not Yang Ye's fault, but Luo Lie's fault.
Luo Lie is just a has-been actor in his fifties, and his sexy news is of little value at all.
The people around him couldn't help but feel embarrassed because they misunderstood Yang Ye.
The most embarrassing one was Luo Lie.
Luo Lie was a popular star of Shaw Brothers in the 1970s. Now he is old and has long been out of fashion. He hangs out on ATV and makes a living by filming TV series.
He was filming "Kill Bill" with Yang Ye and played the role of Bai Mei in it, and he briefly became famous for a while.
This time when Yang Ye was filming "Speed", he got the opportunity to play the villain. He originally wanted to become famous again with this role.
Unexpectedly, his lover knocked on the door and disrupted the booting ceremony. Now, seeing how Yang Ye has become frustrated, it is not unusual to tell him to get out if he disagrees.
At this point, there was no way to hide anymore. In front of the crew and a bunch of media reporters, Luo Lie had no choice but to stand up.
He stepped forward to pull Lehui and whispered: "Ayun, if something happens, let's go home and talk about it, okay?"
Le Hui has a very strong character. She made a big fuss with the film producers today and she just put her all into it. She threw Luo Lie away and angrily said, "Where can I go back to? You kicked me out a long time ago. Where can I go back?" As soon as he came out, everyone immediately despised Luo Lie.
These days, it is common for men in Hong Kong to keep women, and the eldest brother does not talk about the second brother.
But after playing with someone, you kick them out. Is this what humans do?
What's more, Le Hui was very beautiful. At this time, her eyes were full of tears, and she looked heartbroken, which immediately made many men present feel pity and despise Luo Lie even more.
Some men couldn't help but secretly think that such a good-looking woman was ruined by an old man like Luo Lie. What a waste. It would be great if she stayed with me.
Luo Lie was going crazy. He never dreamed that a woman like Le Hui would dare to cause a scene on the set.
He is no longer a human being inside and out, and he can't do anything to Lehui in full view of the public.
And when such a scandal happened at Yang Ye's launch conference, and the movie was implicated, once Yang Ye got angry, he had no ability to resist.
At this moment, Luo Lie was like a prisoner waiting to be executed. He had no other choice but to die.
Guan Zhilin was jealous at first, but suddenly found out that she had nothing to do with Yang Ye, and she was immediately embarrassed.
She immediately turned around and wanted to say something to Yang Ye, but Yang Ye glared at her angrily.
Guan Zhilin knew that she was in the wrong, so she had no choice but to bury her head, play with her fingers, draw circles with her toes, and curse Luo Lie, this dead scumbag.
Now that the matter has come to this, Yang Ye is also very helpless. This kind of nonsense has nothing to do with him in the first place.
He chose Luo Lie because all of Hong Kong's famous villains now have several film commitments and no schedule at all.
Luo Lie's image and acting skills are more than adequate for this role.
But now, Le Hui made a big fuss at the press conference, making it clear that he was going to die and everything would be destroyed, and it would be impossible if he didn't come forward.
Yang Ye knew something about Luo Lie and Le Hui.
Le Hui's actual name is Le Yun. She was an up-and-coming actress in the Mainland back then. She was born with a pair of pink and phoenix eyes, and she originally had the opportunity to play Wang Xifeng in "A Dream of Red Mansions".
But she wanted to go abroad and gave up this opportunity.
In 1987, Luo Lie went to the mainland to film a movie. He was the director and Le Yun was an actor on the crew.
A great Hong Kong director, rich and famous in the Mainland, Le Yun was immediately hooked up with this guy.
Le Yun wanted to be happy, so Luo Lie took her to Hong Kong.
Le Yun originally thought that Luo Lie would marry her and it was true love, but Luo Lie just wanted to support her.
After arriving in Hong Kong, Luo Lie raised Le Yun in a villa.
Just take care of her. She lives in a villa and is served by Filipino maids. She has living expenses every month and her life is pretty good. Le Yun even brought her mother to Hong Kong.
But as Luo Lie got older, his film appointments decreased, and he had no more movies to shoot, so he could only film TV series. Gradually, he could no longer afford to support Le Yun, and the living expenses for her became less and less.
So, Luo Lie used his connections to introduce Le Yun to film, so that he could make some money.
Luo Lie helped Le Yun sign a contract with a brokerage company called Pan Asia Entertainment and changed her stage name to Le Hui.
It was okay if she didn't come out to film, but as soon as she came out, Luo Lie's wife Tang Jiali discovered their scandal.
Tang Jiali was also an actress. After marrying Luo Lie, she stayed at home and raised her husband and children.
She was also supported by Luo Lie. If Luo Lie and Le Yun's affairs were exposed earlier, Tang Jiali could not do anything to them.
But Tang Jiali has a younger brother named Tang Jili. He was originally a dragon and tiger martial artist and action instructor, and he was doing well.
Until he was promoted by Chen Lung to direct "Police Story 3: Super Cop", which caused a sensation and instantly became a popular star in the Hong Kong film industry.
Tang Jiali had the support of her younger brother, so she went to the door and caught Le Yun's mouth. She was severely punished.
Luo Lie was afraid that his brother-in-law would deal with him, so he did not dare to resist. He immediately swore to his wife that he would break up with Leyun.
This guy kicked Le Yun out and cut off her living expenses. Le Yun had no way to make a living and came to the house several times to cause trouble.
Luo Lie became angry and chose to call the police. How could the police deal with such a mess? She can only tell Le Yun not to cause trouble, it will not be good for her.
Le Yun from the original time and space was abandoned by Luo Lie and ridiculed by her own mother. In anger, she committed suicide by jumping off the building.
After her death, no one collected her body. In the end, ATV host Lin Jianming came forward and asked the Hong Kong Performing Artists Association to help with her funeral arrangements.
……
Yang Ye couldn't help but sigh secretly when he thought of Yuan Shikong Leyun's experience.
For today's Yang Ye, he doesn't think there is anything wrong with women being greedy for vanity.
It is the dream of countless men to wield a murderous sword when awake and to lie drunk on the knees of a beautiful woman.
If women are not greedy for vanity and are all serious, how can such a dream be realized?
Where did Yang Ye come from with so many women? Are you still willing to give him a child? Isn't it just because...he gave enough?
Le Yun's problem was that she had poor discernment and mistook a has-been Hong Kong actor for a rich man, and posted it without saying a word. In fact, Luo Lie was nothing.
If she had met the powerful Yang Ye, it would have been two stories.
Of course, she had no chance, and Yang Ye had no interest in her.
Yang Ye accepts girls not only for beauty, but also for their worthiness.
On the surface, it was Yang Ye who was taking the money to support his women.
In fact, the fact that he made these women famous was of great help to his career.
Therefore, he accepted married women such as Xu Feng and Liu Xiaoqing without fail.
However, even if he didn't take it, it was still a living human life. Now that he had encountered her, Yang Ye was still unwilling to watch her take the dead end of jumping off the building to commit suicide.
Yang Ye thought for a while and said to the media reporters: "This matter is a private matter between Mr. Luo Lie and Miss Le Hui. To be honest, it has nothing to do with our company.
But since there has been a commotion today and it involves our crew, it has become a business matter, so please give us some time from the media.
Our company will give you an explanation after understanding the ins and outs of the matter. Now, let’s break up! ”
After Yang Ye said this, the reporters dispersed in a dignified manner.
Today's wonderful start-up ceremony was disrupted like this. Everyone on the crew felt unlucky and looked at Luo Lie and Le Yun in unfriendly ways.
With a constipated expression on his face, Yang Ye said to the two of them: "You two, please come with me!" (End of Chapter)
