1979 Golden Age

Chapter 609 The Wheels Roll Forward

It's Monday again.

It was still 9 o'clock in the evening. Lin Shanshan was holding the radio in her dormitory. This time, all the roommates were paying close attention. When they heard the host say: "Last week's top Chinese hit list was Priscilla Chan's "Everyone Has a Dream"! "

"Wow!"

Everyone cheered, this is not over yet, and listened again: "Congratulations to "Everyone Has a Dream" automatically entered the candidate of the top ten Chinese hits of the year. Today Hui Xian is a guest on our show again. It is a double blessing. I heard that the album sales in the first week have already Double platinum?”

"Yes, thank you all for your support!"

Priscilla Chan's sweet voice came out from the radio, and Lin Shanshan felt joyful listening to it. At the same time, she felt a great sense of accomplishment: The military medal is half of yours and half of mine!

There are so many singers in Hong Kong, and some of them cannot get a single platinum sales volume throughout their career. As a newcomer, Priscilla Chan achieved double platinum status in her first week, which is a great result.

One more thing: when it comes to record sales, there is no one who doesn’t brag. They are all exaggerated several times over, especially the total sales, which can easily reach tens of millions or even over 100 million. Just listen to it.

At this moment, the entire dormitory had been dragged down by Lin Shanshan and became members of the fan club.

The roommate asked: "Should we call again next time?"

"Of course I have to fight! One weekly champion is not enough. I have communicated with the record company. "Everyone Has a Dream" will have three weeks to play, "Lost Promise" will have three weeks to play, and then the promotion period will be over.

In six weeks, we need to win at least three weekly championships. Cheer up, A-Xian can only rely on us! "

Lin Shanshan injected herself with chicken blood and was extremely moved.

Represented by her, those core members of the club are also doing the same thing. They will be big fans and fans in future generations. This is also a new way to get rich. Many people defraud young fans of their money in the name of raising funds.

Then take the money and run away.

Or they may rebel against Tiangang, consciously making great contributions, and always trying to manipulate idols. The most typical example is Yang Zi's fans.

Chen Qi's current traffic strategy is equivalent to disrupting the entertainment industry in advance, but no matter what, he is not building Hong Kong entertainment. He wants to unify Hong Kong entertainment and build a platform to enter Europe and the United States and retreat to the mainland.

"cheers!"

That evening, Priscilla Chan couldn't hold it any longer, so she begged the company to give her a day off, so she could celebrate with her friends. Zhang Xueyou, Lin Yilian, and Huang Kaiqin were all present.

"A-Xian, you are incredible! Your first album is such a hit, you are going to become a big star!"

"A-Xian is already a big star!"

"It's just that the way we debut is different from others."

"The same goes for you! You can sing better than me. I'm just the first one, and everyone can be a hit!"

Priscilla Chan happily warned: "But you must be mentally prepared, the publicity is simply too tiring.

I've lost five pounds. Who's going to get hair extensions next? "

"Me! I wonder how many copies I can sell?"

Zhang Xueyou raised his hand, not very confident, and several people encouraged him again. They all came from The Voice and were in the same company, so they had a natural foundation of friendship. How they develop later is a matter later.

"A-Xian, will everything be fine after your promotional period is over?" Lin Yilian asked.

"It will be fine for a short time, but the company said that we will also sing a movie theme song."

"What movie?"

""Happy Ghost 2"!"

"Wow!"

The three of them were envious again. "Happy Ghost" was a big hit last year and has become a popular culture among young people. Idiots all know how important "Happy Ghost 2" is.

"But "Happy Ghost" is from the left, will it be okay if you sing it?"

"What's the matter? You're banned from singing too?"

"Unless you only sing Cantonese songs, you have to go to Taiwan to sing Mandarin songs!"

"Not necessarily. You can go to the mainland if you sing Mandarin songs."

Priscilla Chan was not too worried and said: "The company specially hired teachers to teach us how to speak Mandarin. There must be arrangements.

What are we afraid of? "

"But what if we want to film?"

"this--·

The four of them couldn't answer, and the people they sang didn't even think about left or right.

After Chiang Kai-shek withdrew to Taiwan, a large number of centralized houses were built to accommodate the troops and their families, called military dependents' villages.

Li Liqun, Teresa Teng, Edward Yang, Brigitte Lin, Ren Xianqi, Jiao Enjun, etc., all came from military dependent villages. As Taiwan's economy developed and urbanization accelerated, more and more people moved out of the military villages. By the 1990s, the military villages were gradually dismantled and disappeared, leaving only some villages for cultural protection.

The background of "The Wrong Ride" is a military dependents' village on Xinyi Road in Taipei, and it also involves the issue of demolition, which is very close to life.

On set.

Beside the river, there is an illegally built wooden house, where Sun Yue and Li Liqun are playing.

Sun Yue plays the male lead, Uncle Mute, a veteran who collects rags and picks up a baby girl and raises her as an adult. When the girl grew up, she showed her singing talent and was spotted by an entertainment company. As a result, she signed a contract of prostitution and worked outside all day long, never seeing her mute uncle.

Finally, during the girls' concert, Uncle Dumb fell ill and died in the hospital.

Nowadays, the story is very cliché, but back then it was a hit with audiences on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. Taiwan is very good at making such painful films, such as "Lu Binghua", "The Wrong Ride", and "Mom Love Me Again" starring Gong Xue. etc.

And "The Wrong Ride" is not simply sensational. It shows the feeling of being at a loss in the military community under the impact of urbanization, which is very representative of the times.

Sun Yue is from Zhejiang and came to Taiwan with the army. He is a senior actor.

Li Liqun's father is from Henan and his mother is from Beijing. He is in his early 30s, but he is the founder of Taiwan's modern drama together with Jin Shijie and Wu Xingguo. Later, the old man became addicted to Douyin and posted short videos all day long, smoking, drinking, and eating peanuts·——·

"stop!"

"take a break!"

Director Yu Ping shouted and the crew took a break, while the main creators walked to the side one after another and shook hands with Zhuang Cheng who came to visit the crew.

Yu Ping also shook hands and said: "Mr. Zhuang, thank you for your strong support. It is rare to be willing to invest in a movie like this. This is definitely a masterpiece and the audience will definitely like it."

Legendary Pictures only provided funds and left everything to Taiwan for production, without even placing actors. This made Yu Ping very relieved. This model is what the Taiwanese film industry has always hoped for. Unfortunately, those Hong Kong companies only regard Taiwan as their market, and they are all fooling around.

"In my eyes, there are no commercial films or literary films. A good movie is a good movie."

Zhuang Cheng became more and more like a boss and said with a smile: "How is the original soundtrack going?"

“It went pretty well, I listened to two songs that were really great.”

"That's good. The content of "Wrong Ride" is closely related to popular songs. There are not many good songs that can't be suppressed."

In addition to the movie itself, the soundtrack of "The Wrong Ride" is also a classic in history, featuring Hou Dejian, Luo Dayou,

Top musicians such as Liang Hongzhi and Li Shouquan are sung by Su Rui.

The theme song "If the Wine Is Sold Without" was composed by Hou Dejian.

Now that the world line has changed, Hou Dejian has come to the mainland, and this song is not there yet, so it will naturally be filled by an indescribable evil power.

Zhuang Cheng looked at Yu Ping's excited expression and responded slightly unnaturally. The more successful "The Wrong Ride" becomes, the more miserable some people will be. He was not pity, but suddenly had a clear understanding of the phrase "the wheels of history are rolling forward".

In front of certain things, everyone is a nobody, including yourself.
