MTL - Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire-Chapter 40 wrong way
…
On August 18, "Big Feature" published an article titled "The New Wave of Hong Kong Films: Revolutionaries Challenging Tradition."
The article divides the content of the "New Wave" film into five aspects. Second, the display of the local style. 3. Personal experience and collective memory. Fourth, women's writing. 5. Concern about the country, ethnicity and overseas Chinese.
The article also said that "The Ashes" directed by Liang Puzhi and Xiao Fangfang and "Happy Ghost" directed by Xu Cun are both representatives of new wave movies.
As soon as the concept of New Wave appeared, it caused a huge sensation in the film circle in a very short time.
It didn't take long for Xu Cun to become the pioneer of the new wave.
Therefore, Xu Cun became famous.
Then, some of Xu Cun's deeds were also dug up by major media - what Xu Cun is the author of "The Journey of Misty" and "Shanghai Beach", what Xu Cun is the author of "Please Come With Me" and "Happy Ghost" The lyricist and composer, as well as the most popular songs in Hong Kong, "Shanghai Beach" and "Sword Like a Dream" are also composed by Xu Cun.
In just a few days, Xu Cun not only made a big name in the film circle, but also made a lot of fame in the literature and pop music circles.
As a result, TVB held the Hong Kong Pop Song Composition Invitational and also sent an invitation letter to Xu Cun, inviting Xu Cun to be a judge, and the invitation letter belonged to Fang Yihua's name.
At this stage, DreamWorks movies cannot do without Shaw Brothers Cinema if they want to sell high box office. Therefore, Xu Cun did not dare to offend Fang Yihua, a woman who would retaliate.
Therefore, on September 17th, Xu Cun obediently drove the Honda he rented to the venue of the Hong Kong Pop Song Composition Invitational.
It's a pity that Xu Cun got up early in the morning but caught a late show - the Toyota car broke down in the middle of the road. Later, Xu Cun took a passing car into the city. Afterwards, transfer to a taxi to the competition venue.
When Xu Cun arrived at the place, the competition was almost over.
Seeing this, Xu Cun was not in a hurry—it was too late anyway, and it was useless to be anxious.
However, Xu Cun was not in a hurry, but the wireless staff was anxious for him. An old man with a rather kind face urged Xu Cun: "Take two steps, maybe you can catch up!" Then, he kindly showed Xu Cun the way.
Facing the old man's kindness, Xu Cun could only thank him, and then symbolically accelerated a few steps in the direction the old man pointed.
After seven, eight, eight detours, Xu Cun came to the backstage.
Looking left and right, Xu Cun realized that he might have gone the wrong way.
But at this moment, a woman in her forties turned her head and glanced at Xu Cun, and urged, "It's too late, so hurry up!" After speaking, the woman turned her head away.
Hearing this, Xu Cun secretly asked, "Are you still waiting for me?" Then, Xu Cun walked towards the direction of the woman.
Walking up to the woman, Xu Cun wanted to ask what was going on now.
But before Xu Cun could speak, the woman urged again, "Go straight, turn left after going up the stairs, hurry up!"
Then, Xu Cun walked in the direction pointed by the woman in a confused manner...
After crossing a curtain, Xu Cun froze in place - he actually walked onto the stage!
In an instant, the eyes of nearly a thousand audience members were all focused on Xu Cun.
The hosts He Shouxin and Fei Fei originally had their backs to Xu Cun, but when they saw the audience looked at Xu Cun, they also turned their heads to Xu Cun.
He Shouxin is indeed a well-known host - his response is very fast! He smiled and said, "This player..."
However, as soon as He Shouxin spoke, Fatty immediately removed the microphone and reminded in a low voice, "He is Xu Cun, one of today's judges."
This time, even He Shouxin didn't know how to get around.
After being stunned for a while, Xu Cun hesitated for a while, then he walked straight to the microphone used by the contestants, then cleared his throat and said, "Then what...that...the song I sing is..."
At this moment, Xu Cun saw Chen Baiqiang in the crowd.
So, Xu Cun went on to say, "The song I sing is "What to Expect in Life."
At this moment, Huang Zhan, who was in the jury's seat, stood up and said with a smile, "This contestant, where is your instrument? You shouldn't sing softly, right?"
Seeing Huang Zhan's smiling face like a chrysanthemum, Xu Cun knew that Huang Zhan recognized him.
In fact, not only Huang Zhan, but also many people who have watched "Happy Ghost" also recognized Xu Cun, and they were all wondering, "Why did Xu Cun come to participate in the competition, is he an Easter egg arranged by Wireless?"
Xu Cun really doesn't care about what other people think - now, Xu Cun is thinking about how to get through the embarrassing situation in front of him.
Seeing Huang Zhanxiang asking, Xu Cun hit the snake with the stick and said, "Brother Zhan, lend me a guitar."
Huang Zhan said to a tall player very happily, "Young man, can I borrow your guitar for him?"
The tall contestant heard the words and brought his guitar to Xu Cun.
In such a situation, Xu Cun could only bite the bullet and continue the performance. He tried the sound, then played the front part of "What I Want in My Life", and then sang affectionately: "I can't rest if it's cold or warm, how many autumns will I look back? I lost it all over the place, I didn’t expect it, but I had it in my hand. I couldn’t explain what I got or not. I changed it as soon as I heard it and saw it. I don’t know where to pursue it. If you can't touch it, you have run away, what can you ask for in your life..."
The singing sounded, and everyone at UU Reading www.uukanshu.com slowly became quiet...
Until Xu Cun finished singing, the audience was still silent.
After a while, the first applause sounded!
Then, the second, the third, the fourth...
After a while, everyone present spontaneously applauded!
Huang Zhan applauded and said, "What a good song "What to Expect in Life", such a good Xu Cun, no wonder you can compose a song like "Shanghai Beach"!"
Then, Huang Zhan said with a bit of regret: "It's a pity, there is only one guitar accompaniment, otherwise this "What a Life" will definitely sound better!"
Huang Zhan pointed out that Xu Cun was the lyricist and composer of "Shanghai Bund". There was an uproar at the scene, and the discussion began to spread - now, the song "Shanghai Bund" is really popular in Hong Kong, and it is rarely popular. There are people in Hong Kong who have not heard this song. So, knowing that Xu Cun is still the lyricist and composer of "Shanghai Bund", one can imagine the surprise of the people present?
Seeing that the audience was out of control, Xu Cun simply said to Huang Zhan with a wry smile: "Brother Zhan, you really don't want me to step down!"
"It's not easy to step down. Sing another nice song, and we'll let you down of course." Huang Zhan also realized that he was cheap, so he quickly found a step for Xu Cun.
When the audience heard the words, they all cheered: "One more song! One more song! One more song..."
When the scene became like this, Xu Cun felt that he was taking over. No, to be more precise, his actions were already suspected of causing trouble. So, he hurriedly looked at Fang Yihua in the judges seat...
