9days ago Celebrity fiction 8
"The Pretty Beauty", written by Kang Jianfei and starring Sophie Marceau, has won a total of 5 Golden Globe nominations and 3 Oscar nominations under Paramount's operation.

Although these nominations only won one award, this award was very important, which directly made Sophie Marceau the Golden Globes best actor, and Sophie Marceau's pay soared to more than $6 million.

As for the third cartoon "Mulan", produced by Dark Horse Animation Company, it has now been scheduled to be previewed in 25 theaters in the United States. If the audience responds well, it is likely to be released in the spring schedule in North America.

If the preview effect is not good, then "Mulan" can only be released during the off-season between the Spring Festival and the summer season.

James Cameron's Terminator 2 has also reached its final stage. It can be used for inspection and ratings next month, and it will definitely meet North American audiences in the summer.

Kang Jianfei is doing well in Hollywood, so how can Mr. Zou from Jiahe be lonely?

Before this year's Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony, Zou Wenhuai went to California to visit his daughter who was studying for a master's degree in film at Stanford University, and at the same time bought the film agency copyright of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles".

If nothing unexpected happens, Jiahe's "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" will be very popular next year, selling specials in North America and Asia, setting off a trend of adapted movies, TV, animations and games in "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles".

The comedy "Extraordinary Anchor" starring Chow Yun-fat, Choi Shin and Leon Lai finally came to an end in its hit South Korea, breaking the box office record of Korean local movies without any suspense.

Under the operation of Oriental Entertainment Distribution Company, a subsidiary of Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group, "Extraordinary Anchor" will be released in Hong Kong and Taiwan in April and May respectively.

By the way, Chow Yun-fat returned to Hong Kong after filming "Extraordinary Anchor", while Leon Lai continued to stay in South Korea to develop. He is now co-starring with Choi Zhen in the second romantic film, and there are a lot of messy Korean advertisements.

"The Story of Ah Lang", which wrote the script as early as last year, officially started filming after the Lantern Festival. The male and female protagonists are Chow Yun-fat and Cherie Chung, but the directors are Ang Lee and Wu Ruiqing.

Ang Lee's ability is absolutely unquestionable, not just because of the achievements he achieved later. The two awards he won in his graduation work alone are enough to prove his excellence.

After being an assistant to Kang Jianfei for two years, Ang Lee has long been familiar with the process and cultural connotation of Hong Kong films. It is time to let him try the sharp blade.

As for cousin Wu Ruiqing, this guy is actually more promising as a screenwriter, but he insists on learning from Kang Jianfei as a director. He has been filming movies with his cousin for several years, and the timing of controlling the overall situation is still lacking. This time, Kang Jianfei threw him to Ang Lee as a deputy, which is also a kind of exercise.

As for the child who has a strong role in the film, since he has never found a good child actor, Chow Yun-fat finally recommended the Korean child Kang Hyun-jin who played his grandson in "Extreme Anchor".

"The Story of Ah Lang" started filming quietly, and what ordinary Hong Kong citizens are more concerned about is the ratings battle between TVB "The Unforgiven" and Feng Huáng's "The Investiture of the Gods".

"The Unforgiving" is another TVB drama produced by Wei Jiahui. It stars Wong Rihua, Carina Lau, Shang Tian'e, Maggie Sakusa, Wen Zhaolun, and Cuiwen Deng. It has a strong cast and is familiar to Hong Kong audiences.

"The Investiture of the Gods" is a mythological drama co-produced by Dongshi Company and Shanghai TV. It is quite a disadvantage in terms of actors, because Hong Kong audiences only know one Tang Zhenzong who died after appearing in one or two episodes. However, the quality of the filming of the mainland, the Kang family's martial arts coach and the meticulous work of the mainland TV drama director is comparable to that of the movie.

Moreover, in order to take care of Hong Kong audiences, "The Investiture of the Gods" has also been re-dubbed in Cantonese.

The two TV series were released after the Lantern Festival, because the movie's spring season has ended at this time, and it is a good time to broadcast popular TV series.

Housewives and older viewers mostly like to watch TVB's "The Unforgiven"; students and many young people like "The Investiture of the Gods" which is a fierce fight. The final result is that the ratings of the two dramas are difficult to distinguish, and it is almost a 50-5 situation.

In addition to the ratings battle between the two TV stations, there is another thing that has attracted attention, that is, Kang Jianfei finally released a new book after he put his pen aside for many years.

When Kang Jianfei published "The Legend of the Clouds and the Rain", in order to avoid being exposed in the future, he admitted very simply that the novel was conceived by him and then asked Huang Yi to write it.

Huang Yi became famous in the Hong Kong literary world. After serializing "The Legend of the Clouds and the Rain", he continued to write many short and medium-sized science fiction and martial arts novels in the Oriental Daily. I heard that he was planning to create a long novel recently.

As for Kang Jianfei's book fans, they have long given up on Kang Jianfei's new book.

After all, Kang Jianfei is now a big boss and a big director, and he doesn't like the manuscript fees for writing books. The box office of a random movie is enough for many writers to write books for their entire lives.

But unexpectedly, during the Lantern Festival, the Oriental Daily suddenly had a full page advertisement with only a few lines of large words:

Kang Jianfei’s new work "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" will be popular on March 1, so stay tuned!

The countdown to the first release of the new book is 9 days left!

As soon as this advertisement was released, Kang Jianfei's old book fans and movie fans were inexplicably surprised and told their relatives and friends about the news.

The Sing Tao Daily suddenly came another article, questioning the real purpose of Kang Jianfei's release of the new book: As we all know, Kang Jianfei has been very busy in recent years. In the first half of last year, he created the script for the Hollywood movie "The Pretty Beauty", and wanted to write and direct "Tang Bohu's Feast"; he also had to plan the games and comics of "The King of Fighters", and even he wrote the script of "The Great Era".The most important thing is that Mr. Kang is constantly involved in romantic affairs, and it may take a lot of energy to deal with the three beauties. How can he have time to write a book "Grave Robbers' Chronicles"?I'm afraid this so-called new work is another work that seeks fame and reputation by someone...

The Oriental Daily interviewed Kang Jianfei about this matter and posted a reply the next day. Kang Jianfei was too lazy to defend himself and directly issued a reward order: If someone can find evidence of the ghostwriting of "Grave Robbers' Chronicles", I promise to reward him with 10 million Hong Kong dollars.

This is more important than any explanation, and the Sing Tao Daily immediately had nothing to say.

Later, the Oriental Daily broke the news again, saying that Kang Jianfei's new book "The Grave Robbers' Chronicles" was originally a script, and it was an annual blockbuster that Kang Jianfei planned to shoot this year, and was later expanded into a novel.

Now Kang Jianfei’s book fans and movie fans were all happy. Not only were there books to read, but there were also blockbusters worth looking forward to.

Before the official serialization of "The Grave Robbers' Chronicles" was already in the newspaper's court, and the number of subscribed newspapers in Oriental Daily increased significantly within a few days.

Ni Kuang was obviously still worried about his son's affairs last year. When he was hosting a talk show on TVB, Huang Zhan and Cai Lan mentioned the topic of Kang Jianfei's new book. Ni Kuang responded very disdainfully: Kang Jianfei's method of making movies is very good, but writing novels may have been exposed.I heard that his cousin's "The Legend of Qin" was written by his cousin, and "The Legend of the Clouds and the Rain" was written by Huang Yi. At that time, he was not as busy as he is now, and he had plenty of time to create novels. If someone asked someone to write for him, he could only say that his novels were too bad.Some people just need to be directors honestly, and they have to come and pretend to be a literati and write novels. Do you really think that even a cat or a dog can publish a book?

Ni Kuang yelled at Kang Jianfei on the conversation program, and the news quickly appeared on the entertainment pages of major newspapers.

Kang Jianfei did not make any statement on this, but many of his young fans cursed at Ni Kuang, and Ni Kuang's book fans immediately cursed back, so that sometimes the two fans could be seen quarreling on the streets with red faces.

In fact, many people are both Ni Kuang's fans and Kang Jianfei's movie fans. They all took the same attitude in this debate.

Nine days passed by, but for those die-hard fans who were waiting to read Kang Jianfei's new book, they lived like a year. Every day, they watched the countdown on the new book series of "Oriental Daily", they felt that time was extremely long.

To be honest, Kang Jianfei has few pure book fans left, and most of the fans waiting for him to release a new book are Kang Jianfei's movie fans.

With Aiwu and Uga curious, they couldn't wait to know the content of Kang Jianfei's new book, and some people even booked the "Oriental Daily" for half a year.

On March 1, 1989, "The Grave Robbers' Chronicles" was officially released in the "Oriental Daily".

Ming Pao Newspaper Group Building.

The secretary made a cup of coffee for Jin Yong, brought a large stack of newspapers, and then closed the door and left the office.

Jin Yong first looked at the current affairs pages of several major newspapers one by one, and the important press secretary had marked him.

After spending more than an hour reading the current affairs news, Jin Yong was in a pretty good mood. Today, there was only one newspaper writing an article to scold him. It seemed that the storm caused by that incident was about to subside.

In addition to the identity of the novelist and newspaper owner who closed his pen, Jin Yong is still a politician. Last year, the Double Check Bill drafted by him and another member named Cha was passed by the central government. This bill has been used since the return of Hong Kong.

However, because the bill is too conservative, it is believed by democratic parties to hinder Hong Kong's democratic process and believe that Jin Yong is a lackey of the mainland government.

After Jin Yong returned to Hong Kong from the capital, not only did some people scold him in the newspaper every now and then, they also organized demonstrations to oppose the bill proposed by Jin Yong, and Jin Yong even received intimidation letters.

After reading a lot of current affairs news, Jin Yong casually opened an entertainment page of a newspaper to relieve his boredom, and suddenly turned to the page of "Grave Robbers' Chronicles".

Hey... After reading a few random novels, Jin Yong found that this novel seemed different from other martial arts and science fiction novels, so he started to read them seriously.
