The filming of "A Better Tomorrow" has already started, but for this difficult movie, shooting stopped and stopped. Although there was a script given by Lin Wei, some of the special effects shots made Wu Yushen rack his brains. Zhou Runfa, who has been called a box office poison, did not accept other movie scripts, but held his breath and wanted to make a turnaround with "A Better Tomorrow", so he now has a lot of free time, and another point Unfortunately, he was divorced now, and Lin Wei thought that with Chen Chaowu gone, Zhou Runfa and Chen Yulian would fall in love again, but no, it seemed that Zhou Runfa's silence in the past had deeply hurt Chen Yulian, and it also seemed that Zhou Runfa no longer had the same feelings for Chen Yulian. Because Zhou Runfa had free time, and because he had just divorced, he lived a very leisurely life during this period. He would meet up with friends from time to time. He came to see Lin Wei. Lin Wei was with Chen Yulian at that time, and the two looked like each other when they met. They were friends, and they greeted each other with a smile, but Lin Wei could tell that there was no longer any love between men and women, and it seemed that there was only pure friendship between them. When Lin Wei invited Zhou Runfa to dinner, Chen Yulian also did not Saying goodbye to Lin Wei, the three of them were in a private room. Zhou Runfa sat alone on the other side of the round table, while Chen Yulian sat next to Lin Wei, very close. Chen Yulian took the initiative to sit next to Lin Wei. Lin Wei was a little embarrassed. The two of them were lovers back then. However, in this situation, it seems that they are not friends at all, but Zhou Runfa didn't show anything. With a gloomy expression, she was chatting and laughing with Lin Wei. Chen Yulian didn't have any sad expression. She always listened to the chat between Lin Wei and Zhou Runfa very gently and quietly. When Zhou Runfa drank too much and went to the bathroom, Lin Wei also He followed in and asked: "Brother Fa, do you no longer have that feeling for Sister Lian? Brother Fa, please don't misunderstand what is going on between me and Sister Lian. The things that appear in the newspapers are all false." "What I did with Sister Lian was just to anger that person." "Awei, don't think too much. The relationship between me and A-Lian has long since ended. Now we are really just friends." I also know that what happened between you and Alian, Wei, is false. I know your temperament and Alian's temperament. If there is really anything between you two, it will definitely not be reported in the newspapers. Propaganda was everywhere. At first I didn't know why you did this. Later, after that person died, I realized. In fact, I really hope that there will be something between you and A-Lian. She is a good woman. Child, but only someone like you, Ah Wei, can protect her." Zhou Run smiled, patted Lin Wei on the shoulder a few times, and then returned to the private room with Lin Wei. With Zhou Runfa¡¯s words, Lin Wei¡¯s embarrassment disappeared. After the party ended, Lin Wei and Chen Yulian drove Chen Yulian back to her home in a car driven by Zhang Xingwang. The two of them were silent all the way. When they arrived at the door of Chen Yulian's house, Zhang Xingwang got out of the car and opened Chen Yulian's door. Chen Yulian did not get out of the car and said to Lin Weida: "I heard that Times Film Company still has many empty staff dormitories. "Can you give me a house? The place where I live is not in good order." "Okay, Sister Lian, you can do it tomorrow. I'll have the house decorated for you today." It's decorated and can be lived in as long as the purchased furniture is put in." Lin Wei smiled and nodded, agreeing to Chen Yulian's request. Although the company's house was only for the company's employees to live in, Lin Wei was the one who could live in it. The chairman of the company is, strictly speaking, an employee of the company. Buying a house in his name for Chen Yulian to live in does not constitute breaking the system. But Lin Wei felt a little strange. Why would Chen Yulian want to live in the company's dormitory? The public security situation was just an excuse. Chen Yulian heard that this was definitely not what she was thinking, but it was hard for Lin Wei to ask clearly. , of course, Lin Wei didn't think that Chen Yulian fell in love with him and wanted to be with him. Lin Wei knew Chen Yulian's character very well. She was not the kind of person who was easily emotional. Zhao Yazhi was the kind of person who lacked emotions. Caring, as long as others are sincerely nice to her, she will be nice to others. Lin Qingxia is a romantic. The characteristic of female literary youth is that they are easily sentimental. Chen Yulian has a naturally cold personality, and her heart is not easily moved. , her heart is not easy to be emotional. It's not that she is hard-hearted, she is actually very kind-hearted. It's just this kind of nature that destined her not to fall in love with Lin Wei after just a few greetings from Lin Wei. Chen Yulian got out of the car and left without saying anything. Lin Wei couldn't understand what Chen Yulian was thinking, and he didn't even think about trying to figure it out. When he returned to Times Film Company, he arranged for someone to prepare a house for Chen Yulian. In fact, he There are still a few repaired villas available in his hand, but his relationship with Chen Yulian is not good enough to give her a villa. Now, the villas Lin Wei has sent out include one for Zhao Ya, one for Zhou Huimin, one for Wen Bixia, and one for Zhong Chuhong I originally planned to give Lin Qingxia a set, but Lin Qingxia moved into the staff dormitory instead.In the middle of the school, Weng Meiling and Mi Yu became neighbors. The next day, Chen Yulian moved into the staff dormitory. The furniture inside was purchased by Lin Wei. It had everything, including kitchen, bedroom, and living room furniture. Even Chen Yulian¡¯s clothes were purchased in batches. Chen Yulian carried them with her. After some belongings were moved in, Lin Wei went over to ask if he was dissatisfied with anything. Chen Yulian looked at the furniture, clothes, etc., shook her head and said, "It's all good, thank you." "Nothing. Thank you very much. After all, we can be considered friends." Lin Wei said with a smile. "I'm not thanking you for this, I'm thanking you for letting me be free. Although I don't want to think about the matter between that person and Ah Fa, I can finally understand it. Ah Fa will suddenly become like that. I want to think about that People cannot be separated from each other. When I first started, I thought you were the same as that person. Now I understand that you are actually different from Ah Fa and that person. I can get real freedom by your side. I like this A kind of freedom." Chen Yulian looked at Lin Wei who was sitting on the other sofa and was stunned, and couldn't help but smile. She knew that Lin Wei would definitely not expect these words, but she decided to say it anyway. "I understand, Sister Lian, don't worry, no one can make Sister Lian unhappy in the future." Lin Wei nodded and put away his dumbfounded expression. When he first heard Chen Yulian's words, he thought that Chen Yulian was saying that he liked her. He, but he soon understood. What Chen Yulian said was not that she liked him, but that she really thanked him, thanked him for not having any thoughts about her body, and thanked him for holding up a sky of freedom for her almost without asking for anything in return. This is a typical picture. Lin Wei had collected several good guy cards in his previous life, the only difference was. The previous good guy cards were all about rejecting him, but Chen Yulian's good guy card was not a rejection, and certainly no encouragement, but there was still hope in it, if Lin Wei really liked Chen Yulian. There is no need to despair just yet. Lin Wei also knew whether he really liked Chen Yulian, so he quickly put aside what Chen Yulian said. After talking to her about some random topics, Lin Wei left. When he went out, he saw Zhu Yin, The reason is that Zhu Yin and Chen Yulian became neighbors, and Zhu Yin signed a contract with Times Film Company. Naturally, as employees of the company, they can naturally live in the staff dormitories. Zhu Yin happened to go downstairs and heard the footsteps of someone coming downstairs behind him. He turned around and saw that it was Lin Wei. He was surprised: "Brother Lin, why are you here, oh. I understand, it's for that sister Chen Yulian." Come here, I heard that she lives opposite my house. " "Well, she has moved here. I am here to help her move. Why are you still at home at this time today?" Lin Wei asked with a smile. Because they went downstairs side by side. The girl grew plumper and plumper, gradually approaching the image of a beautiful woman in Lin Wei's impression. "School is on holiday today, so of course I will review my lessons at home. The training in the company is not yet time." Zhu Yin is now a trainee trained by Times Film Company. Lin Wei treats the trainees in the company very well. Still very good, unlike later generations of Korean trainees. Zhu Yin¡¯s daily training volume is not large, mainly focusing on body shape, dance, and performance. In Lin Wei¡¯s view, a star only needs to have a good body shape, good appearance, dance and performance. Even if the basic skills are not good enough, it is very easy to become famous. Have you not seen some mainland celebrities in later generations? The reason why they are so popular is not because of their talents. A TV show with high ratings can make people famous. A movie that does well at the box office, plus countless tidbits, can create a generation of celebrities. However, in Hong Kong in this era, a generation of famous stars was not created by gossip. People like Zhao Yazhi, Lin Qingxia, Zhou Runfa, Liu Dehua, Zhou Xingchi, etc., their reputations were created by starring in many popular movies and TV shows. Of course, There is an exception, like Weng Meiling, there is only one role of Huang Rong that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. But people can remember her because the role of Huang Rong made her play so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In people's hearts, she is almost Huang Rong, in that "Shooting" "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" became a classic because of Ong Meiling and Huang Rihua. However, Lin Wei always believed that for Xiangjiang's movies to go out of Asia, these classics alone are not enough. They must have good screenwriters. The second is to have advanced technology, and the third is to have a good director. As for actors, Lin Wei doesn't think it is very important. Therefore, Lin Wei is not very serious about the training of backup actors in the company. But no matter what, Times Film Company finally has a training department. What you can learn in it is far from what can be compared to the short-term training courses of TVB. Those trained in Times Film Company are better than those who have not been trained. An actor must be strong and have a higher starting point than others. If he still cannot become a famous star, then it can only be said that this person is too useless. Lin Wei and Zhu Yin went downstairs together while talking. The two of them separated downstairs. Lin Wei didn't pay attention to Zhu Yin. He didn't know that after saying goodbye to Zhu Yin, Zhu Yin looked at his leaving back for a long time, with a blush on his face. , so beautiful. Since the cinemas owned by Jiahe Company were merged into the Xiangjiang Cinema Line, Lin Wei has been relatively leisurely, and he has not thought about making the next movie. "The Swordsman" was officially released. Due to the prior publicity, and With Lin Wei's fame as a director and Lin Qingxia's fame, after "The Swordsman" was officially released, the box office performance on the first day was very good, almost full, with picturesque scenery, wonderful martial arts, and heart-stirring storyline. , in this era, this is a blockbuster movie, and in fact, this is indeed a movie that cost a lot of money to shoot. Although it is not as expensive as the "Shushan", it is not far behind. Too Far, "Shu Mountain" failed, but "New Swordsman" is obviously a success. In three days, ten movie theaters were fully booked, so according to regulations, the number of movie theaters was increased to twenty, but all the movie theaters were still fully booked. Such a result made all the film companies in Hong Kong envious. Then, The number of cinemas increased to thirty, which reduced the overcrowding situation, but the attendance rate was still over 90%. If a movie can have an attendance rate of 90% in ten cinemas when it is released in Hong Kong, it is a good movie. If the shooting cost of the movie is not very high, then it is a movie that makes a lot of money. The filming cost of "The Swordsman" was a bit high. Although the results were very good, it was actually the most profitable. Not Time Film Company, but Xiangjiang Cinemas. With only a 40% share, it seems that the box office results of "The Swordsman" are very good on the surface, but for Times Film Company, it is just superficial glory, and the actual harvest is not good. Most of the money has been earned by Xiangjiang Cinemas. Fortunately, a movie is usually not only released in Xiangjiang, but also in Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia and other places, and the final income is generated. It is still considerable for Times Film Company. Otherwise, Xiangjiang alone would not be able to support as many film companies in Hong Kong, and Lin Wei would not dare to make such a high-cost movie, because even if the box office Even if you get good grades, you may not be able to recoup the cost, you can understand that if you think about it. A good movie has a box office of 30 million in Hong Kong. Excluding theaters, the film company can only receive 12 million. If the cost of this movie is more than 11 million, where will Lin Wei recover this cost? ? "The Swordsman" became a hit at the box office, raising Lin Qingxia's popularity to a higher level. The role she played as Dongfang Bubai has completely penetrated into the hearts of Hong Kong people. Even many die-hard martial arts fans have changed their impression of Dongfang Bubai. This is an infatuated person, regardless of gender or she*, this is a proud person, her pride makes many people yearn for her, this is a lonely person, her loneliness is light but eternal, like running water. The bluestone is eroded bit by bit. "A Laugh in the Sea" is sung all over the street. This song makes many martial arts fans yearn for the martial arts world. In that fantasy martial arts world, they enjoy grudges and kill endless enemies. Endless Shaodao wine, endless beauties to admire, endless mountains and rivers to travel, this is the world imagined by martial arts fans, this is the pride released by singing "A Laugh in the Sea". But many white-collar workers in Xiangjiang like the song "Laughing at the Red Tip". People who don't understand it will never like it. People who understand it feel that it is more heroic, more upright and more upright than "A Laugh in the Sea". More freedom. If "A Laugh in the Sea" is the arena of martial artists, then "Laughing in the Red Dust" is the arena of scholars. They are invincible in the world with swords, and they are drunk in the world of loneliness. In everyone's eyes, Dongfang Bubai is different. Image, but her invincibility, her infatuation, and her pride are the same. Seeing that the character she played was so popular with everyone, Lin Qingxia was very happy. She thought it was all Lin Wei's contribution, so she decided to treat Lin Wei to dinner and reward him. When she saw Lin Wei, Lin Wei said : "The demon has reached such an extent that all men and women fall in love with him. This simply ruins the normal outlook on life." Lin Qingxia was very angry at this sentence and decided to ignore him for three days. However, this girl didn't know that this girl was angry. She shamelessly asked Lin Qingxia to travel with her. As soon as she heard that she was going to travel, Lin Qingxia immediately decided not to be angry with this guy named Lin for the time being, because she actually He likes to travel very much, so he asked Lin Wei: "Where do you plan to travel?" "This period of time is relatively free, and I have no plans to make movies for the time being. Wherever you want to go, I will go with you." Lin Wei said with a smile , this guy is actually not a person who likes to work very much. Now that he has money, he doesn¡¯t want to work as hard as before. But when it comes to fun things, Lin Wei likes very few, such as playing games, but this At that time, computers were still very backward, and simple games simply caught Lin Wei's attention, so Lin Wei had no choice but to accompany the beauty on the trip. The reason why she went traveling with Lin Qingxia was because Zhao Yazhi wanted to accompany her child. Zhong Chuhong was a workaholic and had several movies waiting to be shot. Zhou Huimin wanted to study, and Wen Bixia stopped going to school. But Lin Wei gave it to?'s factory, so she who only wanted to make money was obsessed with managing the factory all day long. The real one who was empty was Lin Qingxia. After Lin Qingxia heard Lin Wei's words, she thought for a moment and said: "Let's go to Japan. We can just go there for a few days. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Before the Chinese New Year, I have to go home. This year's Chinese New Year, you, the boss, have to "Give me a few more days off." "Okay, just do as you say." Lin Wei nodded and agreed to Lin Qingxia's suggestion. Anyway, he has never been to Japan, but it's good to have some fun at the same time. Go find some needed talents, such as comic talents. Your own animation company still lacks talents. Seeing that Lin Wei agreed, Lin Qingxia happily invited Lin Wei to dinner again. The two of them dressed up and left the company in a car driven by Zhang Xingwang. Two days later, Lin Wei and Lin Qingxia quietly got on the plane.
