    Diamond Head.  ¡ª{2}{3}{w}{x}] It is named after its shape that resembles a diamond.  In the area from Tai Hom Village in Diamond Hill to Ax Hill Road in Ngau Chi Wan, multiple studios were established here. The more famous ones include Tai Kwun Studio, Kin Shing Studio, and Wing Wah Studio, which is now owned by Golden Harvest Company.  Hong Kong is known as the Hollywood of the East, and the contributions of these studios are indispensable.  Here, Hong Kong film and television crews of all sizes gather.  The photography crew of "Frog Crossing the River" was among them. They had been filming for nearly 20 days, and they were at the end of filming.  This drama is invested and filmed by Anle Film Company. It is a small-budget and small-scale production. It is Anle Film's first attempt to get involved in production.  However, "The Tragic War" was a hit at the box office, which gave Anle Pictures a taste of the benefits. They simply formed another Anle Film Company to produce it. Because it was a groundbreaking film, the knowledgeable Jiang Zhiqiang was even given the title of producer.  Shaw Brothers' large-cast production of "Interstellar" is admittedly a bad movie, but it is not without its merits. At least the heroine in the film imitates Marilyn Monroe, covering her skirt and showing off her sexy image.  Zhong Yanhong became an instant hit and became synonymous with sexiness.  Anle Film Company chose Zhong Yanhong, a popular and economical fried chicken, as the heroine of "Frog Crossing the River", hoping to win a good start with her invincible sexiness.  And the person Huang Baiming is looking for is Zhong Yanhong.  Last year, "Brothers and Brothers" in New Art City's "Da Duitou Performance" had an all-star cast, including Shi Tian, ??Ma Jia, Zhang Aijia, Zhong Xianhong, Lin Tse-hsiang, Tam Wing-lina group of red stars were all on the floor.  Catch the show.  Zhong Yanhong, Zhang Aijia, and Huang Baiming are all cheerful people who are easy to get along with.  I love making friends, and the friendship between the three of them was formed at that time.  Huang Baiming and Zhang Aijia came to the Jiancheng studio and walked through the costume area.  Walking through Minguo Street, I quickly saw the crew of "Frog Crossing the River" and saw Zhong Yanhong wearing costumes and putting on makeup.  The crew knew these two big stars, and when they heard that they were here to see Zhong Yanhong, they were not only let go immediately, but they also enthusiastically shouted for help.  "Honggu, someone is looking for you!" I heard someone shouting.  Zhong Yanhong looked up and saw Huang Baiming and Zhang Aijia standing in front of them with smiles. She couldn't help but be startled.  He asked in surprise: "Hey, why are you here? I didn't hear that your New Art City is opening a new show here!" "If the show is not started, we can't come to you? We are here to see you!"  Huang Baiming winked and said funny.  "I heard that you are filming here. We made a special trip to visit your class. Ai Jia and I care about you so enthusiastically. Do you feel particularly touched?" "Young lady is very touched. Do you still want me to be like this?"  Are you willing to marry me?" Zhong Yan glanced at Huang Baiming with red eyes and said teasingly, "I'm quite happy to lean on you, but do you dare?" Huang Baiming hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, I have a Hedong lion at home.  Roar. I don¡¯t dare to pick the flowers outside!¡± Zhong Yanhong smiled charmingly.  Said: "You dare to say that my sister-in-law is Hedong Lion Roar, you are dead. Next time I play mahjong, I will tell her to deal with you well." Huang Baiming was dumbfounded, he almost forgot that they were poker buddies.  Zhang Aijia saw Huang Baiming, who had always been articulate, looking frustrated. She immediately became happy and said, "Bai Ming, aren't you usually the best at talking? Why did you become frustrated in A Hong's hands?" "Who is called Hong?  I have a lot of friends, and even the god Lao Buddha has moved out of my house. Can I be dissatisfied?" Huang Baiming teased, "Don't you think so, Hong Gu?" Zhong Xinghong couldn't help but feel a smile on her cheeks when she heard this.  With a faint blush, she said with a shy face: "A few days ago, a reporter from "Movie Times" magazine came to the set to interview me. She called me Sister Hong. I didn't like such a title, so I asked her to call me Sister Hong. Instead,  Seeing how friendly it is, everyone knows that it has spread. "Hong Kong entertainment reporter interviewers all like to call popular celebrities a certain brother or a certain sister, such as Fat Brother (Zhou Runfa), San Mao Brother (Hong Jinbao), San Brother (Tse).  Xian), Sister Zhi (Zhao Yazhi), Sister Dajie (Wang Mingquan) Artists with the word "gu" after their names are rare. The only ones active now are Xiu Gu (Huang Xingxiu) and La Gu (  Deborah).  Zhang Aijia smiled and said: "I also think it's very kind to call you Honggu." At this time, someone outside shouted: "Ms. Zhong, have you finished putting on your makeup? Hurry up, you will be in the next shot." "I know, I'll be here.  !" Zhong Yanhong responded, looked at her makeup in the mirror, and then said to the makeup artist, "Sister Liu, I'm urging you to do it. It's urgent. I'm afraid it's too late to put on makeup again. Just help me touch up my makeup.  ." She had just arrived from the set of "The Young Master", and even before taking off her makeup, she immediately started filming the final scene of "Frog Crossing the River".  Zhong Yanhong felt her head was a little heavy. Because of the drama, she had slept less than 4 hours a day for five consecutive days.When she was tired, she couldn't help but rub her swollen and painful temples to relieve her fatigue, and then brewed a cup of strong coffee with boiling water to wake up.  The most taboo thing about drinking water when filming is that during the filming, someone will suddenly shout and run to the toilet.  Therefore, Zhong Yanhong just took a sip to refresh herself and did not dare to take more sips.  Zhang Aijia noticed Zhong Haohong's beautiful eyes with deep black sockets, and asked with concern: "Are you okay? You look so tired, you probably haven't had a good rest for several days, don't let your body be exhausted.  "Don't worry, this is a little hard work, cough, I can bear it." Zhong Yanhong frowned and coughed suddenly. After coughing a few times, she seemed to feel less uncomfortable, and then asked: "  By the way, why are you looking for me? Are you looking for a new movie? "You are willing to risk your life and your body will collapse!"  Huang Baiming, one of the "Struggle Seven", often stays up late, but usually he works hard for a while and then takes a good rest.  Actors often stay up all night filming, and sometimes even sleep for three or four hours for several days in a row. This is common.  But after the filming is over, everyone will catch up on sleep and take care of themselves. People like Zhong Yanhong who are so crazy about acting may not be strange in the future, but now they are very rare.  "One of you is the big boss, the other is the most expensive actress, and I am just a vase, used as a background during filming." Zhong Yanhong smiled at herself and said very depressed.  "If I don't take on a few more movies while I'm young and save some money, how will I live if I don't have any more movies to shoot in the future?" Hong Kong's film and television industry is still dominated by men, and actresses have always been used as vases in men's movies.  A breakthrough performance.  She is also the man-in-law played by Zhang Aijia in "The Best Partner" who destroyed her image.  Zhang Aijia's asking price for a film is HK$300,000, which is higher than Zhao Yazhi's HK$250,000 and Lin Qingxia's HK$280,000.  She is currently the most expensive actress, bar none.  After "Interstellar", Zhong Yanhong's salary gradually increased, starting from 50,000 yuan for a movie.  to 130,000 now.  It has almost tripled. It is no wonder that she will take advantage of the high price to take on more movies.  "It's time for me to appear, you guys can talk first." Zhong Jihong apologized and hurried to bury his seat.  Huang Baiming said: "It seems that we came at the wrong time!" Zhang Aijia rolled her eyes at him and said: "I remember someone said that he would show sincerity if he came to invite you!" "So, I think we should find a stool to sit down and take our time.  Wait!" Huang Baiming said with a smile.  Zhang Aijia: ""  "Zhang Sheng, I have your phone number. It's from Hong Kong!" "Hong Kong?" Zhang Shaoping was confused.  After he arrived in Hong Kong from New York, the first thing he did was to handle the company's affairs in Hong Kong.  Ordinarily, there should be nothing that requires his final decision, "Ahu, if you reply there, just say that I am not available at the moment and ask him to call back in half an hour." When he said this, Zhang Shaoping was changing  After putting on work clothes, accompanied by Guan Xiaoxiao, he visited the workshop of the toy factory.  His toy factory has a weird name, Movie Toys Company. It is located in Shekou, Shenzhen City. It has 20 production lines and nearly a thousand workers. It is only smaller in scale than the neighboring Keda Company.  At this time, 20 production lines are operating at full capacity, and toys of various colors are continuously produced from the assembly line, then sorted, inspected, loaded onto trucks, and transported to the warehouse for storage.  Soon, these toys will be loaded on cargo ships and cargo planes and shipped to all parts of the world.  Zhang Shaoping¡¯s original intention was that all 20 production lines would be used to produce Cabbage Patch Dolls. However, the sales of Cabbage Patch Dolls and Transformers have just started, and the sales volume is not large. 20 production lines are too many, which is pure waste.  Under Roberts's suggestion, the toy factory began to receive orders and diversified production, and several types of toys have been produced.  After Chen Feihu was sent away, Zhang Shaoping continued to "patrol" the workshop.  Because it is produced on an assembly line, all processes are strictly in accordance with the process division of labor. Taking the puppet as an example, the steps are drawing sample, cutting sample, canvas, sewing, cutting cloth, turning and finally filling.  The key point is filling, that is, filling stuffing into a puppet toy, which needs to be adjusted evenly by hand, and then repeatedly extruded after making sure the stuffing is full. Finally, it needs to be stamped on a special machine.  This work is strenuous and usually done by strong men.  "Workers were used to being idle before, but now the work intensity is so intense, can they adapt?" "The factory adopts two shifts of working hours. If you don't work overtime, the intensity is not very high. Because the time is still short, no one has expressed dissatisfaction.  , However, we will pay attention to the emotions of the workers, and if we have any opinions, we will communicate with the union as soon as possible.¡± Knowing that Zhang Shaoping attaches great importance to the sense of belonging of company employees, Guan Xiaoxiao did not dare to be careless at all, and communicated and discussed with Roberts many times.Incorporate Zhang Shaoping's humanistic management culture and wolf business philosophy into the toy company and implement them thoroughly.  With the deepening of opening up, a wave of migrant workers has emerged in mainland China. There is even a jingle that goes, "Go east, west, south, north, and middle, and get rich in Guangdong."  Although migrant workers are coming in droves, everyone in the industry knows that these workers have no sense of belonging to the company at all, and job-hopping is commonplace.  And it is difficult for a company that cannot retain employees to grow bigger.  ??Even for Zhang Shaoping, corporate culture is a lifelong foundation, and benefits are only temporary gains and losses. ?¡­ ?The administrative building of the movie toy company.  On the 5th floor, in Guan Xiaoxiao¡¯s office, Zhang Shaoping was reading a newspaper.  This is the Transformers comic published in the supplement of "Global Chinese News".  In Hong Kong, there are two common ways for comics to be published for the first time: one is published in a pictorial, commonly known as a doll newspaper, and the other is published in a supplement of a newspaper.  Supplements are generally divided into three categories in Hong Kong newspapers, novels, comics and essays.  Novel supplements are martial arts in Ming Pao, romance in Oriental Daily, and romance in Sing Tao Daily. However, comics supplements are rare, and only scattered here and there, often in the form of single-frame comics.  Publish in newspaper.  In addition, when a comic series becomes very popular, it will be printed into a volume and released in the form of a magazine.  Zhang Shaoping finished reading the two-page comic series very quickly. Just as Guan Xiaoxiao wanted to ask for his opinion, Chen Feihu knocked on the door and came in with a message: "Sheng Zhang, there is another call from the Secretarial Department for you. It's from Hong Kong." Zhang Shaoping.  He stood up, grabbed the newspaper, and said: "I took this newspaper and took a closer look when I went back. You can ask all the colleagues in the comic studio to relax and create, and just say what I said, the drawing is good, and continue to work hard in the future.  We are not afraid of a temporary downturn in sales. "In addition to the R&D, production, sales and publicity and finance departments, the movie toy company also has two affiliated studios - the comic studio and the animation audio-visual studio.  The Transformers comic series is collectively created by the comic studio.  (To be continued)
