Hong Kong Entertainment’s Life Simulator

"Five lucky stars with ingenious plans, Hong Yinbao performs the return of the king!"

"Breaking news, Hong Yinbao's new film has a box office of over one million on its first day!"

"The era of super comedy is coming. In the past, the king of comedy Xu Guanwen dominated 1981, but now Hong Yinbao and all the lucky stars are here to shock!"

"This summer vacation is extraordinary! First, New Art City showed off its best partners to show off its magic to win the annual box office championship, and then..."

…………

On the afternoon of July 8th.

When Shao Yifu was sitting in the familiar Peninsula Hotel drinking afternoon tea, he looked at a table of newspapers, all of which were touting information about the five lucky stars of ingenious plans. The more he read, the more uncomfortable he became.

Based on his life experience, he has achieved so far.

I won't get angry over the failure of a few movies.

What makes him depressed is that since the 1980s, with the gradual rise and growth of New Art City and Golden Harvest, what about his Shaw Brothers?

The overall outlook is worrying.

When he was unhappy, Wang Tianlin, who was sitting with him, took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Uncle Liu, the little guy is just not sensible. He invited Adu and Fa Zai to say that Xiang wanted to see you, but he was late."

Shao Yifu chuckled, "It's because we came early."

After he put down a newspaper, he asked curiously, "What about Zhao..."

Wang Tianlin quickly explained, "Zhao Donghuai is from the New Territories. He is not yet 20 years old this year. He graduated from Form 6. His academic qualifications are far inferior to those of my boy. I have never heard of him learning filmmaking."

"He actually wrote a script that Adu, Fa Zai, and even my boy admired. A Fa would rather not get paid and still want to participate in the role. He probably thinks that this script can help him win the box office. The name of poison.”

Shao Yifu tapped the table a few times with his fingers, "Everyone has secrets, and there's no need to pursue them too closely. When one day his movie fails, will you buy the script and remake it? If you don't have the confidence to make a good movie, you can let him Jingzi, please help me.”

An inexplicable outsider, still young, with no experience in the film and television industry, making movies as soon as he started?

Even if you have a good script... was it stolen or deceived? With Shao Yifu's current status, he didn't bother to discuss this topic in detail.

He doesn't think that a script can make a good film.

Just wait until Zhao Donghuai screws up and remake it.

Of course, this is not the reason why Shao Yifu is willing to meet Zhao Donghuai. Even if Fa Zai has someone to help negotiate the relationship, Du Qifeng can help negotiate the terms, and Wang Tianlin can help intercede.

If Boss Shao hadn't been used to having afternoon tea on the peninsula and happened to have no other appointments today, so he just stopped by... Then Zhao Donghuai wouldn't be qualified to see him.

It's not that Boss Shao is discriminating against Zhao Donghuai, but that after becoming famous, Andy Lau has to perform on TVB TV shows to break his chest. Who is Zhao Donghuai? ?

Will you crush a stone in your chest, or stab your throat with a silver spear? Which of the five tiger generals is not beautiful in their acrobatics?

Boss Shao didn't even have the time or energy to look down on him.

Wang Tianlin, "..."

He didn't think that Zhao Donghuai, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, could make a good movie. He even felt that this was a bad guy who got rich from nowhere. He wrote a good script and was interested in entering this industry, so he asked Du Qifeng to help with the filming. , he is just enjoying his success and defrauding his reputation.

But at this point, he couldn't say much.

Just as Director Wang was thinking about how to reply, Zhao Donghuai walked in at the entrance of the hotel, accompanied by Zhou Runfa and Du Qifeng. Adu was leading the way at a fast pace and waiting for a trot.

When they arrived at the tea and dining area, Du Qifeng introduced him as the middleman, and Zhao Donghuai smiled and said, "Hello Shao Sheng, I don't dare to take up too much of your time. To make a long story short, I wrote a script and want to submit it to TVB. I don't know if you dare. Dare to shoot."

Both Lao Du and Fa Zai were stunned. Wang Tianlin looked shocked. Boss Shao laughed and said, "Young people are so ambitious. As long as it's a good script, there's nothing I wouldn't dare to shoot?"

Zhao Donghuai quickly opened his backpack, took out a stack of printed scripts, and handed them to Boss Shao.

Shao Yifu raised his eyebrows and looked around, "Young man, you only have ten minutes, are you sure you want me to read the script?"

Zhao Donghuai nodded.

Wang Tianlin called the waiter to bring more tea and snacks. Boss Shao grabbed the script and opened it. On the first page, there were just a few big words, [Long Night, Difficult to See] and [Zhao Donghuai].

It was hard to figure out this name for a long time, but Boss Shao looked at it without any hesitation and continued to turn to the next page.

In the first few minutes, Boss Shao read very quickly. After seven or eight minutes, when the time limit of ten minutes was approaching, he closed the script, stared at Zhao Donghuai again for dozens of seconds, took out his reading glasses, and started reading from the first chapter. Start reading on one page.

After staring at the title of The Long Night on the first page for more than a minute, he turned to the second page.

No one spoke, everyone was waiting for Boss Shao to read the script.

But everyone knows that after reading this script, Shao Daheng was still very attentive.

More than an hour later.

After changing the tea several times, Shao Yifu put down the script and took off his reading glasses, "I'll call you Ah Huai. I don't ask you where you learned screenwriting or where you got the script, as long as the copyright belongs to you. , confirmed that it is correct, I want this script, 30,000 yuan, how about it?"

"If you are willing to join TVB, and if the scripts are of this quality and there are no copyright disputes in the future, I will accept 50,000 yuan each."

Wang Tianlin was shocked, and Du Qifeng was almost the same. The script fee was so high?

Zhao Donghuai smiled and said, "Shao Sheng means you dare to film it? Why don't you adapt it?"

Shao Yifu, "..."

What is it difficult to understand in the long night?

It is about an entrepreneur in the New Territories who commanded his gangsters to abduct, force, and coerce young girls from rural areas in the New Territories to go to dinners hosted by Gui Lao Superintendent, Gui Lao senior officials, and congressmen.

It’s self-evident what the dinner party is.

Some girls became mentally ill afterwards and lived in Qingshan, some committed suicide directly, and some fell into prostitution.

Hou Guiping, a young teacher who graduated from the University of Hong Kong and returned to a school in the New Territories to devote himself to the improvement of rural education. After returning, he accidentally met a young girl, Weng Meixiang, and was taken by Huang Mao to a dinner in a town in the New Territories.

Teacher Hou didn't understand at first and thought Huang Mao was Weng Meixiang's relative and watched her go. That night, Weng Meixiang returned to school and committed suicide outside his dormitory.

Hou Guiping was greatly stimulated, collapsed and regretted, and began to follow and investigate Huang Mao. Unexpectedly, he found out a lot of truth. He photographed how some Guilao superintendents, senior Guilao officials, and officials higher than the deputy director were arranged by New Territories entrepreneurs. …

Hou Guiping died.

Being drugged and raped by a prostitute, Huang Mao and others originally arranged this so that the prostitute could sue Hou Guiping for raping the prostitute afterwards. In the process, Hou Guiping was strangled to death, his body was abandoned, and he was linked to the police station. The forensic doctor determined that he committed suicide out of fear of guilt.

Hou Guiping's reputation was very bad in his hometown in the New Territories. Hou's mother could not stand the excitement and died in depression.

The Hou Guiping case is temporarily over.

Two years later, one of Hou Guiping's college classmates, Jiang Yang, returned to the New Territories to work as a police officer. He was a trainee inspector when he joined the job. He was found by Hou Guiping's ex-girlfriend Li Jing and asked him to redress Hou Guiping's injustice.

Inspector Jiang started out as a trainee inspector, and he also has Bai Fumei's girlfriend, who can be called a representative of young talents.

Just because of the request of former classmate Li Jing, I started investigating and found something wrong. I continued to investigate and started fighting against the evil police chief, evil senior officials, congressmen, and entrepreneurs.

He contacted Chen Mingzhang, an upright forensic doctor, and Zhu Wei, the investigation director of the ICAC, to find the truth about the Hou Guiping case again and again, but the evidence was destroyed by the villains time and time again.

I find hope again and again, and despair again and again.
