"The real golden age of Xiangjiang movies has come." Walking out of the cinema hand in hand, Alan Wilson said to Xia Meng beside him, "It turned out to be just a regional specialty movie, but this time it is a sensation. It is eye-catching, if not
If you mind, asking Mr. Jack Cheng to come to London will help establish a stronger influence."
"You think so highly of him." Xia Meng covered her mouth. Isn't this the treatment she received when she came to Europe? After her, there were many female celebrities in Hong Kong who wanted to follow her route, but they all failed.
Of course it will fail, and the supreme authority does not have many waistlines. If Xia Meng's route succeeds so easily, Alan Wilson may not live to retire.
"I'm not optimistic, Mr. Jack Cheng worked hard for it. Maybe the help at this time will become an honor for me in the future." Alan Wilson answered concisely and to the point.
If the differences between men and women are not considered, Jack Cheng can at least be regarded as a star of Vivien Leigh and Taylor level, and his status can only be higher but not lower.
Even if Bruce Lee is alive, Jack Cheng can still have his own style. After this year, Jack Cheng is unique among Hong Kong movie actors, and his salary is nearly twenty times that of the second place actor.
Although Hong Kong always boasts that he has some international superstars, in fact, there is only one international star in Hong Kong from the beginning to the end. The other stars are just the blessing of Hong Kong film filters. Jack Cheng is really strong.
As for the group of Hong Kong stars who hang out with Internet celebrities in the 21st century, they have even less credibility. The only one who can be said to have a wide audience of all ages is Liu Tianwang.
Alan Wilson asked Xia Meng to play the role of supporting the younger generation, not to care for the newly popular Jack Cheng. As he said himself, maybe this was the British film industry taking advantage.
With the help of the booming Hong Kong film industry, it whitewashes itself while pretending to be on par with Hollywood.
Xia Meng thought her man was being modest, but Alan Wilson frankly said that was not the case. Xia Meng really didn't know how high the status of this newly popular Kung Fu boy would be in the future.
He wasn't worried that it would undermine his success. If I remember correctly, Jack Cheng should have had a lot of minor roles, and the movies he starred in all flopped at the box office.
In the era of Shaw Brothers movies, there was no chance for Jack to shine. This was the era of Ti Lung and David Chiang. Fortunately, Shaw Brothers movies are also fading now. If nothing unexpected happens, Sir Run Run Shaw will focus on the development of TV series in the future.
An era of Hong Kong drama where props have been passed down for three generations.
With the guarantee of Alan Wilson, Xia Meng contacted Jack Cheng. At this time, Jack Cheng had just become popular and had not yet got rid of the traditional Xiangjiang Film Company. He had to wait until Drunken Master was released before he had the right to speak. Alan Wilson
You can help directly omit this step and let them establish their own right to speak earlier.
Leaving Xia Meng to handle this matter, Alan Wilson discussed the visit to China with Callaghan. In fact, the Labor Party in power would deliberately avoid contact with the hostile camp to avoid suspicion.
The first British prime minister to visit China as a party leader was Heath, and the first sitting prime minister to visit China was Margaret Thatcher.
Attlee originally visited China in history, but only in a private capacity. As for this world, Attlee has never visited China because he has been Prime Minister for a long time.
Therefore, Callahan was somewhat hesitant about being the first current Prime Minister to visit China. Alan Wilson conveyed the business community's expectations for the Prime Minister to improve relations between the two countries, "Prime Minister, the British Empire is essentially an Asian country. Although our homeland
Entrepreneurs in many industries in Europe are looking forward to this visit."
Alan Wilson thought about how he had to be one step ahead of the Japanese Prime Minister, otherwise all the benefits would be swallowed up by the Japanese. Under the instigation of the Cabinet Secretary-General, the Prime Minister also felt that a new chapter in the relationship between the two countries was in his own hands, and he himself must
Will be remembered for this.
"I will arrange the Prime Minister's itinerary in detail to make this visit relaxed and enjoyable." Alan Wilson said this change of subject, "Of course we must take into account the perception of the Soviet Union, which is inevitable. This requires mature diplomacy.
, but I believe the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is very much looking forward to working hard for this."
It was necessary to appease the Soviet Union, and Alan Wilson decided to do it personally, such as talking about the preparations for the Moscow Olympics. Having said that, in the last two Olympics, the United States has become more and more interested in the technological competition between the United States and the Soviet Union.
It was powerless, and it was obvious that it was no longer a match for the Soviet Union in the Olympics.
This is simply unreasonable. On such a big stage as the Olympic Games, if the United States ranks second every time, doesn’t that mean that the United States is not the opponent of the Soviet Union? The United States can certainly find 10,000 reasons, but second place is second. No matter how many reasons it finds, the United States will not be able to compete with the Soviet Union.
You cannot make yourself number one.
When Jack Cheng started his trip to London, Alan Wilson was preparing for his visit to the Soviet Union. The choice of hosting international superstars was naturally decided by Ms. Vivien Leigh, Chairman of the Commonwealth Film Association. The two exchanged experiences in film development in the two places. Vivien Leigh also said
My friend, who is about to go to Moscow, a man of the same status as her husband also likes to watch Xiangjiang movies.
"Jack Cheng, if you need help, my son is working in Xiangjiang. He can help you a lot. He is a very obedient child." Vivien Leigh was full of pride when she talked about her son.
Although Haodaer does not hold a high position in Xiangjiang now, he has a father who is the supreme authority. Temporary experience is necessary, and he will definitely shine in the future.
After Vivien Leigh finished expressing the favor of the British Empire, Alan Wilson hurriedly came to the door. This habitual lateness made Vivien Leigh roll her eyes, "Just came from Audrey?"
"Dear, what are you talking about?" Alan Wilson's face was stern. He had just come from his sister-in-law's home. "I'm done with my work, so I'll come over to see you right away. How was the talk? Xiangjiang Movies have not been there in the past few years.
It is limited to the local area, and the box office is proof. The annual box office number one has begun to approach tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars. How many people are there in the local area?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The Hong Kong movies of this era can compete with films from any region, and the local market is also important to the UK. The Zero 07 series has also won many annual crowns. Who said Hong Kong
People are not patriotic, but the popularity of the 007 series is enough to prove that people in Hong Kong are patriotic.
The Xiangjiang market's acceptance of Zero 07 ranks second among markets outside the UK, with the Federal Republic of Germany ranking first. Every time a new Zero 07 movie is released, the Germans will stand proudly.
Although the Germans lost to Britain in both world wars.
"We can still help Mr. Jack Cheng a lot. The biggest disadvantage of Hong Kong movies is that the background is too fake." Alan Wilson pointed out the shortcomings of Hong Kong movies and Hong Kong dramas, such as cheap background arrangements. Hong Kong people also like big movies.
The scene, Britain's current position in the world, can still be shot from many places, at least in the Commonwealth countries, there is no problem.
"You want to absorb Hong Kong's film industry." How could Vivien Leigh not know this man's purpose? Relying on this man's script ability, United Artists Pictures is developing well, but compared to the entire creation of Hollywood, how can the Cabinet Secretary
Mr. Kong is concerned about this kind of thing, "Hollywood is still powerful."
"It will be fine after this period of time." Alan Wilson is not so pessimistic. It seems that since Inception, American movies have also lost their creative power. They have become various trilogies, even ten parts, and comic books.
The paradise of majesty is nothing like it is now, with great white sharks and king kongs emerging one after another.
"Is the hope of surviving this period in Xiangjiang?" Vivien Leigh didn't understand, but this man had already established trust with her, so she couldn't say anything.
"It's wrong, it's because of the actor Jack Cheng. It's not because of Xiangjiang." Alan Wilson corrected, comedy movies cannot break through cultural barriers, but kung fu movies can.
The level of Jack Cheng must not be regarded as the level of Xiangjiang. In fact, the level of Xiangjiang movies is definitely not outstanding. The reason why it is influential is entirely because of the emergence of a group of talents. This group of talents has aged, and the Xiangjiang film industry has also
That's it.
In order to find a market for British films, wasn't Alan Wilson preparing to visit the Soviet Union again, hoping that the Soviet Union could make appropriate adjustments to the system of imported films?
It can be said that in the past year, the Soviet Union has definitely gained a lot, especially in Nicaragua, where a new wave of strikes and student movements are surging; news about the corruption of officials in the Somoza regime is constantly being exposed.
Under the fierce public opinion, the insurgent faction supported by the Socialist International and Latin American countries took action and launched attacks on several large towns in the country at the same time. One of the provincial capitals, Masaya, was only thirty miles away from the capital; the Protracted People's War faction
The northern mountainous area launched an offensive, capturing many small towns, seizing Somoza's industries, ambushing the transportation team responsible for delivering supplies, and organized students to launch demonstrations in the city to demand the punishment of the National Guard who committed the massacre.
As for the proletarian faction, they also took this opportunity to establish a grassroots organization called the Revolutionary Workers Committee among urban workers to gather strength. Chamorro, the leader of the bourgeois opposition, also called on people to strike, market strikes, and school strikes, and took to the streets to oppose the demand for goods.
Mocha.
Repression ensued. In rural areas, entire villages were burned to the ground and napalm bombs fell mercilessly on peasants.
In the city, demonstrators were attacked by the National Guard and thugs hired by Somoza. However, this did not extinguish the people's anger at all, and the fighting mood continued to rise.
This may be the first time after World War II that the Soviet Union and Germany have the same attitude on one thing. The Socialist International actually rarely supports the use of armed force to overthrow a country's power. But this time is an obvious exception. At the meeting of the Socialist International
In the war, the German Socialist Party insisted on adopting the model of armed overthrow, which surprised the British Labor Party. What was most surprising was that the German idea won the support of Latin American countries.
"What a Soviet-German alliance." Alan Wilson muttered. He had long seen that the Germans were not good people, and this was the most obvious evidence.
