Chapter 476: Time Passes Like Water

At the end of 1988, Su Yun took time out from the intense filming period to go to New York as promised, in order to avoid Ovitz's continued calls to haunt her.

Fortunately, she had absolute control over the filming of "New Town" and her assistants were trained one after another. Otherwise, she might have had to choose one side reluctantly - and this choice was undoubtedly "New Town". After all, the expectations of "Rain Man" were too high and the investment was also high. In addition, time was more urgent and it could not be made up for "New Town" later.

Although if we temporarily stop the work and make up for it later, it will definitely cost more than the budget.

"How much more can you spend? Just use your 'power' in the stock market and earn it back in minutes." Ovitz has recently been thinking about using Su Yun's precedent in Hong Kong to try and observe this method of converting popularity and traffic into cash.

If this method really works, he will be able to open up a whole new path in the future and reach a new peak in his career...

Although gossip-mongering to attract attention and heat is an old-fashioned method in the circle, this method of gossip-mongering often has both advantages and disadvantages. Before this, it seemed better for Su Yun and Tom to "fly solo" separately than to be forced together, so Ovitz was undoubtedly like those old-fashioned parents who were afraid that their children would fall in love too early, and he kept a close eye on the two of them.

Until Su Yunjian went off the deep end and turned the scandal into a money-making weapon...

So Ovitz changed his previous practice of being afraid of his artists getting into scandals, and specially arranged for Su Yun and Tom to attend the premiere of "Rain Man" together, and also repeatedly urged them to act as intimate as possible.

Because recently he was planning to do something in the stock market to drive up the shares of his own company.

After watching this operation with his own eyes, the stock price in the following days continued to rise as he expected. Ovitz suppressed his excitement and checked the data while calling Su Yun and asked her to come to his office to discuss the details.

Su Yun had told him some time ago that she planned to gradually dilute her shares in several companies here in the next few years and let Ovitz help keep an eye on them - there was no way, whether it was CAA, which had already grown big and strong and had a certain say in North America, or the other two technology companies that had mastered the core technologies of electronic technology, none of them would allow Su Yun, an "outsider", to continue to have more control.

In the past, when the scale was not as large as it is now, the relevant departments have been keeping a close eye on it and ready to take action at any time. Now that we are about to enter the new decade of the 1990s, which is also the last decade of the 20th century, it is time for those who have been silent for a long time to come forward.

When Su Yun started to make trouble, he had already anticipated this outcome, so he went with the flow and followed the wishes of those people and began to prepare to shift the focus of his career.

Anyway, her technology companies in Shenzhen and the capital are gradually building up, which can be exchanged for a large sum of money to support the development of Hong Kong's film and television industry and mainland China's technology development.

But what's funny is that when Su Yun began to show her rare "well-behaved" and "sensible" side, those who had been fighting with her openly or secretly for many years began to feel complicated.

For a country like theirs with a large number of immigrants, if Su Yun had honestly "returned" earlier, this might have been one of the symbols of the changing times that they would vigorously cultivate in the future; unfortunately, Su Yun has always been a stubborn and hard-headed person since she was a child. It would be much more exhausting to deal with her than not to deal with her, but ignoring her would easily lead to disaster... So they could only keep an eye on her in the dark and barely maintain a relative balance.

Now, this particularly troublesome and troublesome guy has begun to have the idea of ​​retreating, which undoubtedly makes them, as old rivals for many years, feel sad that times have changed.

Of course, compared to that real old rival in the big picture who always seems to be surrounded by snow and wind, the weight of this little fox Su Yun is a lot lighter.

But no matter what, the current and future trends are like clouds covering the sun, making it difficult to understand clearly.

Compared to those who were always worried about the big changes, Su Yun, who intentionally or unintentionally added a little chaos to them, was very honest in doing her entertainment business during this period.

As for Su Yun's diligence and honesty during this period, the entertainment industry, which had always been very kind to her but also quite harsh to her in some places, seemed to want to make up for what she had lost in the last year of the 1980s, and the rewards kept pouring in.

First, at the 39th Berlin International Film Festival, Rain Man won the Golden Bear for Best Film and the Berliner Morgenpost Readers' Jury Award, and the lead actor Dustin Hoffman also won the Golden Bear for Lifetime Achievement and the Golden Globe for Best Actor. Then, at the Academy Awards, it won four heavyweight awards for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Actor...

Although Su Yun did not show up in the entire film, her importance as a financial sponsor and in public relations promotion activities is undeniable; and because she was tactful enough to put her name after the producer Mark Johnson, coupled with the cold shoulder incident at the previous awards ceremony and other factors... In the end, she finally went on stage hand in hand with Mark Johnson to take away the most important little golden man at the entire awards ceremony.

The photo of her going up on stage to receive the award spread from the Los Angeles Holy Civic Auditorium, the venue of the awards ceremony, to all directions, becoming a symbol of the beginning of a new era.

When the news reached Hong Kong and then mainland China, there was an outcry of extreme excitement from the region to the country.

Especially in mainland China - last year when one of their musicians had his name listed alongside Ryuichi Sakamoto and David Byrne in the "Best Original Music" award, they were so excited that they published extensive coverage in the newspapers.

Now Su Yun, who has a close relationship with them and is also a "National Lady", has her name engraved on this most important ultimate award. The sense of being recognized and honored makes them so happy and excited that they can't control themselves.

It cannot be said that the moon is rounder in foreign countries. It is simply that when those who started later finally began to catch up with those who started earlier, they felt a kind of indescribable joy and relief that their country was no longer lagging behind and was starting to catch up.

Because once you have a start and a precedent, it will be much easier to blaze new trails in the future.

For such a great event, no matter how busy Su Yun was at work, she would try her best to take out some time from time to accept interviews and activities one after another, and then try her best to maintain the popularity of this film and add fuel to the box office figures of this movie.

It was not until the end of the year that Su Yun managed to finish nearly a year's busy work, and then went to Japan with the Wang brothers to fulfill a long-awaited appointment.

Lin Jiashu was actually somewhat dissatisfied with Su Yun's "neglect" of music in recent years, but no matter how stubborn he was, he could understand Su Yun's dream, so when he saw Su Yun rushing to the appointment in a dusty manner, he sighed deeply and gave her a hug.

He followed suit and hugged the two Wang brothers who left him to develop local music. They looked into each other's eyes, which were still as clear as before after so many years. Everything was self-explanatory.

No matter how different people are in personality, it is difficult to forget the youth of their childhood. But when such memories and the people in the memories appear in front of you, the extremely complicated emotions always make people cry.

But in the hazy light of the water that seems to be falling but not yet falling, there will be more smiles that come from the heart.

However, this peaceful and warm atmosphere was soon transformed into a "lively" atmosphere of affection and scolding due to the lack of coordination and chaotic rhythm during the rehearsal...

Regardless of the year or month, most musicians who have something to do with the word "rock" have hot tempers and will resort to violence if they are not happy with something. Lin Jiashu's current teammates are more pampering to him, and usually give in a step or two before anything happens, which makes his temper snowball...

Now that I've met my old friend and former teammate who also had a bad temper, it's like a bolt from the blue, and it's out of control.

It was not until Su Yun displayed the skills of a disciple of the King of Kung Fu and the true power of a "fighting master" that she gained an absolute crushing advantage, causing these fools who had forgotten the pain to begin to recall the fear of being dominated by Mary Sue...

After rehearsing overtime day and night, they were scheduled to perform at the music festival on New Year's Eve, and finally appeared in front of the audience with an impeccable and unrepeatable cold and powerful aura.

Unexpectedly, this New Year's Eve concert actually invited former teammates, as well as Marie Sue, who was always mentioned by Lin Jiashu because she "couldn't get the best fragrance" but never showed up. There was no need for any unnecessary movements or arrangements, the atmosphere at the scene was already at its peak.

Lin Jiashu was a person who easily got carried away. The atmosphere at the scene made him lose control of his emotions and he started looking for a target...

"Don't save me, save my guitar first!" Wang Jiaju, who was quickly pushed aside by Su Yun who noticed something was wrong, shouted at the top of his lungs when he saw Lin Jiashu moving towards his Martin D-35.

Therefore, many years later, the most talked-about thing about this "miracle concert" in which all the live instruments were intact was not the nearly perfect performance in the early stage, nor the excellent atmosphere of "Dreams Come True" and "Promise to Return" in the middle stage... but the live version of "All Out Fight" that was staged without any warning and was extremely chaotic and exciting at the end.

"Finally, someone can deal with him." A certain macho fan who was once caught in a fight by the insane Lin Jiashu at a concert, but who never missed a single concert, cried with relief when he recalled the most "exciting" moment of the concert.
