Shi Nansheng, with short hair, went home from shopping, opened the door and saw Xu Kezheng lying on the sofa in the living room bored. [;Starting]

"Lao Xu, the script hasn't been finished yet?" Shi Nansheng asked when he entered the door and put on his slippers.

"It's good that the script can never be written," Xu Ke said, still not opening his eyes, as if he was raving, "I went to the screenwriting department of DreamWorks this morning to read it. Although I only saw part of the plot, I took it out with me. The script is completely different."

Shi Nansheng put the vegetables he just bought in the kitchen, walked back to the living room and said, "Didn't Mr. Kang say that the script will let you participate in the final revision? Then you can add some things you want to shoot."

"How can it be so easy to add? Kang Jianfei asked people from the screenwriting department to write the script, and it was strictly required how many seconds to wait. Making a movie is not about making a workpiece, but you can still use a ruler to measure the size?" Xu Ke was depressed. He said, "If I knew earlier that I would find the original plan to shoot, how could there be so much trouble now."

Xu Ke has been doing errands for other crews during this time, just waiting for the script to be written and can start shooting. Now that the situation has developed such that he is not in a hurry.

Shi Nansheng persuaded: "I know you want to make a version of Swordsman, but to be honest, with the current investment and box office returns of Hong Kong films, such films are really hard to make money. If I am Mr. Kang, I will not say a word. It will reject your shooting plan. Mr. Kang is only strictly controlling the script. He has done his best. I think it is better to put the shooting plan on hold first. Not too late."

Xu Ke is very clear about what Shi Nansheng said, Zou Wenhuai and Kang Jianfei are the only people in Hong Kong who have the courage to invest tens of millions to make a movie. But even if Zou Wenhuai was rich, he still voted for Cheng Long and Hong Jinbao for filming, and he had nothing to do with Xu Ke at all.

"Let's talk about it." Xu Ke has already compromised with Kang Jianfei. There are not many directors in the world who can make movies exactly as they want. He was just depressed because Kang Jianfei would not let him participate in the drafting of the script.

Shi Nansheng comforted a few words, then went to the kitchen to cook alone, Xu Ke picked up the look on the coffee table. He went out early in the morning, it was already evening, and today's newspapers had not had time to read.

Today's headline is the love murder case in Lijing Village. This case happened a few days ago. However, the case has been under investigation, and now the headlines appear in the newspapers and the trial must be clear. But it was a retired police officer who broke up with his girlfriend, and beheaded his girlfriend, his mother and sister with a knife in resentment. Caused two deaths and one serious injury.

From the perspective of a director, Xu Ke carefully read the entire case, and then turned directly to the next page. If it were Li Xiuxian or McDonald's, maybe he would come up with the idea of ​​adapting the case into a movie, but Xu Ke is not interested in realistic movies.

After turning several pages of the newspaper in a row, I finally turned to the entertainment page, but the headline was: "Phoenix TV denies the shady beauty pageant, the 38-year-old beauty/wife shines in the audience".

There is also a photo of Qiu Huixin on the side of the article, Xu Ke glanced at it and was quite moved. He couldn't help but glanced in the direction of the kitchen with a guilty conscience. He and Shi Nansheng were married long ago, but they didn't hold a wedding banquet, so many people thought they were just boyfriend and girlfriend.

"Jingle Bell……"

The phone rang not far away, Xu Ke put down the newspaper and went to answer the phone, but heard someone on the phone say: "Hello Mr. Xu, Kang Dong asked me to let you know. The script of the screenwriting department has been written, if you are free tomorrow. If so, come to the company."

"Okay, I'm free, I'll go to the company on time tomorrow morning!" Xu Ke was overjoyed. Quickly agreed. Depressed and depressed, he is still very eager for the filming. As long as the script is not too badly written, the investment of tens of millions cannot be rejected by any director in Hong Kong.

When Shi Nansheng came out with the dishes, the sad look on Xu Ke's face disappeared, replaced by a faint smile.

"Why are you so happy?" Shi Nansheng asked with a smile.

Xu Ke ran to turn on the TV and said, "The script is finished, ask me to change it tomorrow."

Shi Nansheng knew what Xu Ke was thinking, so he just smiled and didn't speak. He brought out a bowl to serve him rice.

It is already 8 o'clock in the evening, and the Chinese channels of TVB and Phoenix should be broadcasting the unit drama. But when Shi Nansheng switched the channel to Phoenix Chinese Channel, a new program "Charming Oriental" appeared after a few commercials.

"Millennium China, Charming Oriental..."

With a muffled male voiceover, an ancient street appeared on the TV screen. The camera moved slowly, past many passers-by in ancient costumes, a beauty in ancient costume standing in front of a roadside stall, holding a hosta in his hand, looking back and smiling. Then everything in the picture, the long ancient alley was drizzled with misty rain, and a lilac girl in a cheongsam and an oil-paper umbrella came from afar...

Xu Ke looked at it and suddenly said, "Is this film shot in Tseung Kwan O Studio City? I heard that DreamWorks and Phoenix TV will move to Tseung Kwan O after the summer break."

Shi Nansheng nodded: "It was possible to move last year, but Tseung Kwan O is too remote, there is not even a supermarket to buy things, and now it seems that a small supermarket is going to be opened."

The two were discussing when suddenly they heard singing coming from the TV, and they all looked at the TV without hearing a word.

"Let youth blow your long hair

Let him lead your dreams

Unconsciously the history of the city

I have remembered your smile

red heart blue sky

is the beginning of life

Spring rain never sleeps, you who stayed overnight

The days when Zeng Kong slept alone..."

The lyrics are sung in Mandarin. Although their Mandarin accents are not standard, they can still be easily understood. In fact, the revival of Cantonese songs and Cantonese movies has only taken 12 to 13 years. In the previous ten years, the most popular songs and movies in Hong Kong were all in Mandarin.

"This song is well written." Xu Ke commented.

Shi Nansheng heard it more clearly: "It seems that Teresa Teng sang it."

After being reminded by Shi Nansheng, Xu Ke heard Teresa Teng's voice and couldn't help sighing: "Phoenix Television even asked Teresa Teng to sing the songs of the promotional video in order to hold a beauty contest. It's really willing to spend money."

The two of them were chatting before, and didn't watch the TV carefully, only now did they realize that every beautiful woman appeared, and the TV subtitles had their names.

By the time a promotional theme was sung, 30 beauties had already presented themselves one by one.

"Hello everyone. I'm your old friend Mary Zhang." The screen suddenly changed to the modern day. The host of Phoenix Channel, Mary Zhang, stood in the aisle of the building, pointed to the flashing door and said, "Starting today, Charming Oriental will be with the Everyone follows Miss Dongfang's beauty pageant process. Inside this gate. Our 30 beautiful girls are training. Let Mary show you their beautiful appearance..."

Both Xu Ke and Shi Nansheng thought it was very interesting. The TV station actually let the beauty pageant meet with the public in advance, and they couldn't help but start paying attention.

"One, two, three, four. Two, two, three, four..."

The 30 beauties are training basic dance steps at this time, which is to prepare for the finals and semi-finals, because then everyone will have to do a short dance. Since most of them are unfamiliar with dance steps, many people will step on the wrong beat, and even have the opposite foot every time. At this time, there will be naughty canned laughter.

After performing a few embarrassing shots of the beauty pageant, everything in the picture has come to rest time. At this time, Mary Zhang handed the microphone to a girl who was wiping sweat and said hello: "Hello. What's your name?"

"Hello Sister Ma Li, everyone from the audience," the girl smiled at the camera, "Hello everyone, I'm No. 1 player Mo Wenwen."

The screen switches again. At this time, Mo Wenwen is wearing a company staff uniform. Carrying the bag, he quickly chased the bus that was about to start in the distance, and finally got on the bus at the last moment. Then Mo Wenwen got off the bus, entered an office building, and squeezed the elevator with others.

Then Mo Wenwen was typing fast with her back to the camera. After typing for more than ten seconds, she turned to face the camera and said, "Hello. Hello, everyone. ...I'm an ordinary typing clerk...I like singing and watching movies. I always dreamed of being an actor, but unfortunately I didn't get into the actor training class...My usual job is actually very boring. my typewriter and keep hitting the buttons. I can't keep my nails like other girls because of work... if you like me, please vote for me, cut out the voting form, and look at the screen The address below will do."

...

At this time, not only Xu Ke and Shi Nansheng were paying attention to the promotional program of the Miss Oriental beauty pageant.

The Kowloon Walled City in Hong Kong's three-no-go zone (no China, no UK, no Hong Kong), several local gangsters are making money, and there is an old black-and-white TV in the house.

"I beat his mother, there are so many pretty girls! This one is pretty, that one is so hot..." Hua Sheming, who had folded early, suddenly stared at the TV and shouted.

The other poker players were originally focused on the gaming table. They were itchy because of the sharp-headed snake, and they couldn't help but look up to watch TV.

"Hey, I'll add 20 yuan, can you follow me, Leitou San?" He Liu tapped on the table impatiently.

The beauties who were looking at the promo title looked good, and threw away her cards and said, "20 yuan is still a piece of shit, you must be two pairs."

"I'm not following either." Da Jinya also discarded his cards, but he didn't take his eyes off the TV. Except for the Miss Hong Kong finals in previous years, when have they seen so many beauties get together? The prostitutes in the Kowloon Walled City are not so pretty.

He Liupai was in a good mood, urging everyone to play cards, but seeing that no one paid him any attention, he was so angry that he threw his cards to watch TV.

"This pretty girl looks good, and she's still an air conditioner in the office."

"I choose, if this girl comes to the city to be a bitch, I will take care of her business every day."

"Just you the leper head three? No one will do it for 1,000 yuan."

"Haha, that is, if I were Hua Sheming, maybe this girl would post it backwards."

"..."

When Mo Wenwen's vr was played, several local ruffians began to comment.

The program of "Charming East" is not long, and only five contestants are reduced every day. When Mo Wenwen's VR is over, it will be the No. 2 beauties Qiu Huixin.

A beautiful woman climbed the stairs with a vegetable basket, and after opening the door, an off-screen voice sounded: "I'm Qiu Huixin, the No. 2 player, 38 years old this year, 1.70 meters tall... I used to be a housewife, doing housework and taking care of children is everything, I I thought it would be my life for the rest of my life to be a husband and a child... Until my husband committed suicide after failing to invest half a year ago, when I heard the news, I felt like the sky was falling... Every day creditors came to my door, and my daughter was about to rise. Entering middle school. I don't have a penny in my bank account... I never thought life would be so hard, working five jobs a day and picking up my daughter from school, with my current income it would take at least 30 years to pay off my debt... I have never dreamed of being a star, but now I hope that I can become famous through beauty pageants and pay off the debt left by my husband as soon as possible..."

Beautiful and gentle beauty. Wife is very tempting. The ruffians in front of the TV almost drooled. In particular, the tragic experience told by the self-reported, even more aroused a man's desire to protect.

"Oh, this world. Orphans and widows are also very sad."

"If she is willing to live with me, I will support her for the rest of my life."

"Just you? If she spends a month with you, I'm afraid she will have to sell meat to make money. Who in the city doesn't know your name, Hua Liucheng."

"Go away, such a beautiful woman, I'm willing to let her *?"

"It's hard to say. The girl you lied to in Hualin Village last time is still picking up guests from Da Liu."

"..."

A few local ruffians were still sympathetic to Qiu Huixin at first, but they started talking crookedly after a few words. But in the end. Hua Sheming said arrogantly: "It's not easy for this woman to be an orphan and a widow. Tomorrow I will buy Shifen newspaper to vote for her!"

Leitou San sneered: "I'm afraid you are going to Junk Liu to pick up the newspapers that others have used."

Hua Sheming patted the table and said, "Don't believe me, I won't buy Shifen newspaper tomorrow, I'm yours."

...

...

"Qiu Huixin's deceased husband was involved in the carrian fraud case and lost 3 million in investment!"

"The identity of Lizhi, a highly educated beauty, has been exposed, and she was originally a mainland girl!"

"Zhang Jiaqin was seriously ill, and he was brave and unyielding to overcome the disease!"

"Chen Yongxin has a stunt. It came from the Great Sage and hung the door!"

"..."

As Kang Jianfei expected, the publicity program "Charming East" immediately ignited the enthusiasm of Hong Kong citizens, whether it was the songs sung by Teresa Teng or the self-introductions of the beauty pageants. have attracted great attention.

This is no longer a beauty pageant, but a talent show created by Kang Jianfeijian, who went off the beaten path.

In particular, Qiu Huixin, the pretty widow who died of her husband, has won the sympathy of many viewers, and people vote for her every day.

Miss Dongfang's operation has just started, and a few days later, someone broke the news that Qiu Huixin's husband died because of a sensational fraud case last year. Then another newspaper published photos of Qiu Huixin picking up vegetable leaves in a vegetable market and washing dishes for people in a small restaurant. The reporter claimed to have taken these photos two months ago. At that time, he secretly took these photos for the purpose of photographing beautiful women.

Some people can see at a glance that this is poor hype, but many more people are moved to tears.

Then it was revealed that Lizhi, the best figure and the most educated, was actually a mainland girl, which surprised many of Lizhi's supporters.

Anyway, in the next half month~lightnovelpub.net~ all kinds of secrets about Miss Oriental beauty pageant have been "excavated" by the media one after another. Before the beauty pageant semi-finals started, citizens who paid attention to the publicity reports were already very familiar with the 30 beauty pageant beauties.

Fang Yihua was dumbfounded - he had never seen such a hype with all his money, he was simply insane!

Hong Di looked at Fang Yihua with a bitter look on his face, and said, "Manager Fang, the publicity budget you gave is not enough. How can I beat the Phoenix TV if I don't have the money?"

Fang Yihua shook his head resolutely and said, "There is no way to add more money. This year's publicity budget has already exceeded the budget. You can find a solution yourself."

10,000 grass and mud horses dashed past in Hong Fei's heart. Which newspaper would like to help you spread the news without money? It is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice!

"You still need me to teach you, so you can't deliberately reveal some exclusive news to those newspapers?" Fang Yihua said dissatisfiedly.

Hong Fei thought to himself: Where are there so many exclusive news, others have taken the lead, no matter how I post exclusive news here, it will not help!
