    After the initial discussion, the commotion quickly stopped. As the plot developed, when Leslie Cheung and Brigitte Lin walked out of the airport and began to tour Los Angeles, the theater was quiet, and the audience began to integrate into the romantic atmosphere created by the movie.  The reason why "Love at Dawn" breaks the rules and does not hold a midnight show for its premiere is that on the one hand, it actively creates news hot spots to attract media attention and takes the opportunity to promote it. On the other hand, this movie is aimed at young literary and artistic people.  There are many movies, and the midnight show is open to the public, so it is impossible to identify the taste and quality of the audience. If a large number of viewers with different aesthetic tastes and movie-watching interests come in, it will inevitably affect the reputation of the movie, because literary and artistic films have few gimmicks and box office is full.  Relying on word-of-mouth support, there is no such problem when holding a premiere, because the entire theater audience is invited from social groups such as college students or middle-class white-collar workers who are interested in literary films based on market survey feedback.  Which man doesn¡¯t like ambiguous encounters?  What woman doesn¡¯t like beautiful encounters?  Which man doesn¡¯t want a confidante?  What woman doesn¡¯t want a caring lover?  Under the bright sunshine with clear sky and clear clouds, in the exotic streets and alleys, handsome men and beautiful women travel together hand in hand, talking freely about the topics and confusions buried in their hearts.  There is no fighting for fame and wealth, no intrigues, no pressure and worry, no ridicule and accusation, no hypocrisy, no worries, no sorrow and loss, no pretense As free as a bird, As happy as a swimming fish, As pure as glass, As blooming as a flower.  Not only were the audience intoxicated, but even Shen Chong, who wrote the script, felt a little bit jealous and envied the male and female protagonists in the movie - when will I be able to be so leisurely and carefree?  He turned his head and looked to the left, and found that Zhang Aijia and Brigitte Lin had almost the same expressions. They both had soft eyes and were looking at the big screen intently. Then he looked to the right. Chen Kunhou and Leslie Cheung were also looking at the big screen intently.  On the screen, there is just one face with a thoughtful look, and the other with a slightly proud smile.  In the era before digital cameras and LCD monitors, after the film was shot and before the editing was completed, only the director knew how the filming went and how the acting went. Leslie Cheung probably never thought that he would perform so well. After all, he had done it before  I have only made two movies, and both of them were mediocre, with no reputation or highlights As expected, he is still a young man of 23 or 24 years old, just starting out, and he can't hide his anger, hahaha Shen Chong felt a faint feeling in his heart.  With a sense of absurdity and a sense of accomplishment in rewriting history, he withdrew his gaze, raised his hand and looked at his watch, and found that it was almost half past ten, so he quietly asked Zhang Aijia: "How long will it take for it to end?" "There are about ten minutes of play left.  "Then I'll go out and wait for you in the car." Zhang Aijia was surprised and reminded: "There will be a curtain call later." "That's all. I'll make a call."  He groaned and nodded.  They, the main creative staff, were originally sitting in the last row, so it was very convenient to go out. Shen Chong hunched over and left from the side where Leslie Cheung was sitting. The driver and bodyguard Dai Aijun opened the thick curtain at the ticket gate and accompanied him out of the screening.  hall.  There was a very interesting custom in Hong Kong theaters in the RU era. Once the movie tickets were sold out, a red banner with yellow characters on a red background and the words "The whole theater is full" would be hung at the door. As long as the audience saw this flag, they would not come back again.  Come in, Jiahe Theater is reserved for the premiere that day, and the flag has been hung up early, so the ticket hall is deserted. After Shen Chong walked a few steps along the hall scattered with leaflets, he heard someone calling him from behind.  "Mr. Shen." Looking back, it turned out to be Qian Xiaoni, accompanied by a photographer carrying a machine and a girl wearing white-rimmed glasses.  Shen Chong had never seen Qian Xiaoni again since the "streaking incident" on the day when Jiayi TV started broadcasting. However, she was the only girl in Taiwan that day to jump into the sea wearing a three-point bikini. She had rough waves and a great figure, so she made a very good impression.  Shen, so she greeted with a smile: "Xiao Ni, long time no see." "Yes, I haven't seen Mr. Shen for a long time." Qian Xiaoni pursed her lips and smiled, exchanged greetings with him, then raised the microphone and asked:  "Mr. Shen, can you ask me a few words?" Shen Chong was slightly surprised. In his impression, this was a shy and shy girl. He didn't expect that in just two or three months, she transformed into a shrewd and smart girl.  Yu Lian¡¯s female anchor I took her to Jiayi TV on a whim, just because her voice is very distinctive, soft and crisp, and her diction is accurate. She can be trained for a while, and then she can be a host when the music station starts broadcasting.  Man, I didn¡¯t expect that before the music station started airing, she was already making a name for herself on the movie station. Sure enough, there are always horses, but there are not always talents. There are talents everywhere This girl was introduced to the TV station by herself., considered to be a direct descendant according to human feelings, Shen Chong was not embarrassed and said with a smile: "Last time in your tea restaurant, I gave you ten minutes, this time I will give you ten minutes again, just ask." "Thank you very much.  Mr. Shen." Qian Xiaoni was surprised and immediately asked, "Has Mr. Shen seen this movie before the screening?" "No, this is the first time I watched it tonight." "So, do you have any idea about the movie?  "What's your comment?" "It's very good. I like it very much." "Can you comment on the performance of the director and actors?" "This girl is very good at telling people's faces. She doesn't want to mention people's names to avoid touching Shen Chong's sensitive points"  It¡¯s very clever, the actors are very talented, and they are all very good.¡± ¡°What does Mr. Shen think of the audience¡¯s reaction at the preview? It seems that some viewers can¡¯t adapt to the style of this movie.¡± ¡°The reaction was better than I expected.  There are so many ideals" This girl has made amazing progress. When she first met Shen Chong, she was confused and her words did not match her words. Although she is still a bit stiff and rigid now, she is clear and well-organized, and she vaguely has the demeanor of a famous reporter.  .  "Mr. Shen speaks highly of this movie. Can you predict its performance at next year's Academy Awards?" "It's hard to say. It's only August. It's still early in 1981. There are many excellent works still being filmed.  , and I am the chairman of the Academy Awards jury, so it is not convenient for me to express my opinions in this regard" Shen Chong heard a commotion in the screening hall and knew that the movie was about to end, so he held down the interview microphone and said: "Okay  Xiaoni, it¡¯s ten minutes.¡± Qian Xiaoni put away the phone and said with a smile: ¡°Thank you, Mr. Shen.¡± ¡°It¡¯s nothing, they¡¯re all my family,¡± Shen Chong said casually, and then prepared to leave.  At that time, the girl wearing white-rimmed glasses took two steps forward, handed over a small paper bag with both hands, and said, "Mr. Shen, this is a tape recorded by AIau. Can you listen to it?" Shen Chong was stunned.  Seeing this, Qian Xiaoni explained: "Mr. Shen, this is my friend Ir. She is the girlfriend of AIau Alan Tam." It turns out to be Principal Tan Alan Tam is also an artist under PolyGram, but Shen Chong is not interested in the pop music industry.  I was very interested in him. After acquiring PolyGram, I rarely went to the recording studio, so I had never seen him before.  After the band Wenner disbanded in 1978, Alan Tam and Zhong Zhentao went to Taiwan to develop and play leading roles in some romance films. In the first half of this year alone, they filmed three films. Now why do you want his girlfriend to come and listen to me Shen  Confused, Chong took the paper bag and asked, "Isn't AIau filming in Taiwan?" "Yes." The girl had a curly wavy hair, a gentle face, and a demure temperament. She helped her  Holding up the frame of his glasses, he explained nervously: "I took this belt out on my own initiative and behind AIau's back. Mr. Shen is the number one musical talent in Hong Kong and the boss of AIau. I I hope you can show your appreciation."  , give some guidance and guidance to AIau, he sings very well. "One of the two kings of the Hong Kong music scene in the RU era, of course I know that he sings well" It's just that Alan Tam's achievements in movies are limited, and I don't have time to tinker with music now.   Besides, the Wenner Band was very popular in the 1970s. Alan Tam has already accumulated a lot of fame, and he is also very popular in Taiwan. He doesn't need to interfere, he will become very popular very soon and Leslie Cheung.  Unlike the paratroopers who were poached from Li TV, the Wenner Band signed a contract with PolyGram in 1974. After the Wenner Band disbanded, lead singer Alan Tam was the target of Zheng Donghan's support. Shen Chong has always disliked getting involved in his sub-groups.  About the company's work, he weighed the paper bag and was about to return it to the girl. At this moment, his heart suddenly moved, he put away the paper bag and said, "I'll listen to it first."  Chong waved his hand, turned around and walked towards the parking lot.  If the guess is correct, this girl should be Principal Tan¡¯s first wife According to gossip records on the Internet in his previous life, Principal Tan¡¯s first wife was very capable and helped his acting career a lot. Unfortunately, she could not have children, so Principal Tan  When I was 45 years old, I found a 1-year-old fan to be my mistress, and then I hugged and enjoyed the blessings of everyone Principal Tan seems to be a playboy and a scumbag like me Listen to it first, everything will change anyway.  It¡¯s not a big deal to change Leslie Cheung¡¯s acting career, and then change Alan Tam¡¯s acting career Shen Chong got into the car, put the paper bag into the storage box, then picked up the car phone and dialed his home number.  "Brother-in-law, it's almost 1 o'clock, when will you come back?" "Little black girl, why aren't you sleeping yet? While I'm going, I want to talk to your beautiful sister." "Who are you talking about, little black girl?"  "Of course I'm talking about you, you look like a chimpanzee, what are you if you're not a little black girl?"   Shen Chong did not go to Beijing alone in early August. Li Tang's family and Zhao Anping's family also went there. Lily was trying to shoot a documentary in Beijing, and Tianbao followed her around every day. The child's skin is tender, and the August sun is very poisonous.  , so in just ten days, she transformed from a little lolita with pink makeup into a dark little black girl.  "How can I be so dark?" Tianbao was in adolescence. When Shen Chong provoked him, he immediately became irritable and shouted: "Brother-in-law, you are much darker than me. You are the chimpanzee. You are the authentic African chimpanzee king." Shen Chong  Laughing, then holding the phone, listening to the intermittent voice inside: "Chimpanzee, white orangutan, go to bedSister, brother-in-law, he said that I am a little black girlWho bothered you, go out without an umbrella  Hey, Ah Chong, the movie is over?¡± ¡°It just ended. Are you still reading?¡± ¡°No, I just took a shower and was about to go to bed with Tianbao¡± Li Kaiyuan seemed to be playing with Tianbao and paused.  "I had a meeting with the senior management of Kinmen Construction in the afternoon, and gave a rough outline of the plans for the next few years, and then asked them to organize a study group to go to Guangzhou next month." "No.  Are you being threatened by others? " "Those people were arrogant at first, but after hearing the plan" Li Kaiyuan chuckled and said, "In your words, money signs are shining in your eyes. Don't say anything at this time.  If a woman were to lead them, even if a pig were to lead them, no one would have any objections. " "Let my brother-in-law, a lecherous chimpanzee, lead them." The mainland is in dire need of development. There is a serious lack of infrastructure, including skyscrapers, highways, and municipal projects.  Airports, docks, stations, factories, etc. all require high-level construction companies to build, and there are business opportunities everywhere. During this trip to Beijing, Shen Chong brought back two business opportunities. One is that the mainland is preparing to build projects in Guangzhou and  To build an expressway between Shenzhen and Shenzhen, the mainland approved Shen Chong to build a skyscraper in Shenzhen through Sino-foreign cooperation.  Li Kaiyuan threw away two big pies, and those arrogant British people were naturally jealous - although these two projects were large, they were not critical. The key was that Li Kaiyuan could open the door to Kinmen architecture in the mainland market.  This is the key point. Around 19RU, most of the municipal projects in Hong Kong had been completed, and large real estate developers basically had their own construction companies. Kinmen Construction could only go to Southeast Asia to look for projects, but several countries in Southeast Asia were not very stable and defaulted.  Phenomenons often occur, and at the same time, we have to face competition from Japanese companies. The Japanese have deep pockets and are under great pressure to compete with them. However, the mainland has a stable government and is full of waste, such as highways, skyscrapers, airports, stations, etc., and there are countless  Large-scale projects all need construction. As soon as you enter, tigers will descend from the mountain and sharks will enter the sea In the face of money, pride and prejudice are like ice cream under the scorching sun and cannot be hardened Tianbao interrupted, and it was already late, Shen Chong also  He didn't chat much with Li Kaiyuan. After chatting for a few words, he hung up the phone.
