Chapter 9 Asi Sen Sai~
Chapter 9 Asi Sen Sai~
"It's alright, I just enjoy reading."
He Xi smiled modestly.
Chung Li-ti suddenly raised an eyebrow.
"Then, could you tutor me in Chinese?"
"As you know, my Chinese is terrible. I can't understand it very well, let alone speak it, which really affects my work and communication. So... can you help me?"
"Axi...Teacher!"
[Ding! A long-term task has been triggered: help actress Christy Chung improve her Chinese listening, speaking, and writing skills. Rewards will be distributed in stages based on completion progress!]
He Xi hadn't planned to refuse in the first place, and with the system task, he was even happier.
"Don't worry, I'll teach you until you learn!"
"However, you need to change how you address me; you can't call me teacher."
"Instead, you should call me, Sensai~"
Chung Li-ti, not understanding, repeated it as well.
"Then I'll leave it to you, Sensai~"
"hiss!"
He Xi took a deep breath and crossed her legs at the same time.
This flavor is just right!
After finishing their meal, He Xi thought the story was over, but Zhong Liti was still somewhat unsatisfied.
"It's still early, let's go see a movie!"
It's late August now, the end of the summer movie season.
Jet Li's "Fong Sai-yuk Sequel" and Stephen Chow's "The Mad Monk" have just finished their theatrical run.
The most popular film that has just been released is "The New Legend of the Condor Heroes," starring Tony Leung, Anita Mui, and Rosamund Kwan.
This film is produced, supervised, and written by Tsui Hark, based on the novel by Wo Lung Sang, and directed by Benny Chan.
The cast includes veteran actors such as Damian Lau, Lawrence Ng, Norman Tsui, and Zhang Tielin.
From the stage to behind the scenes, they are all experts, and the show has the potential to be a huge hit.
When He Xi signed the contract with Xu Ke, Xu Ke mentioned the film with some regret.
"Oh, if only you had come six months earlier, the role of Cao Xiong would have been more suitable for you!"
He Xi almost spat out a mouthful of soda at that moment.
Cao Xiong, as the main villain in "The New Crane Needle", single-handedly defeated the five-person protagonist group without any chance to fight back, and deserves the title of the ceiling of combat power.
However, this character is a bit too... sleazy!
He beat up the Jade Flute Fairy in the street until she was spitting blood... and in front of her brother...
He Xi really couldn't portray that kind of sleazy demeanor.
Hua Ma's performance was quite good; his appearance and personality were very fitting, almost like a natural performance.
When the two entered the movie theater, it was already around nine o'clock in the evening.
For Hong Kong Island, a city that never sleeps, nine o'clock is the busiest time, and the cinemas are packed with people.
Many of them came specifically to see "The New Legend of the Condor Heroes," and the discussions were quite lively when they left the theater.
"Wow, that Cao Xiong is too sharp! He beat up the Jade Flute Fairy right there in the street!"
"Later, they even came in front of my brother-in-law. I was so angry for Su Penghai!"
"But that Jade Flute Fairy is really hot! Her figure is amazing too! I saw... she's quite pink! The actress's name is Liu Jinling, right? After seeing her figure, I'll be her fan from now on!"
"Of course the Jade Flute Fairy burned! Otherwise, why do you think she's called that? But you're wrong about one thing: that guy at the intersection isn't Liu Jinling, he's just a man's stand-in!"
"How can a man have two extra pieces of flesh? Are you crazy?!"
"I've watched it three times, and each time I can see it very clearly. That scene was definitely filmed with a body double!"
Well, He Xi didn't expect that there would actually be someone so free that they would watch this movie repeatedly for a single scene.
However, He Xi had actually verified what these people were discussing.
In the original timeline, he repeatedly dragged the progress bar at 0.5x speed, and finally confirmed that the person who tore off his shirt in public was the male stand-in.
Although the restored version is also somewhat blurry, the face shapes are completely different.
Well, He Xi is also a free spirit.
Soon, the two arrived at the counter, and He Xi took out a Hong Kong dollar bill and said to the clerk.
"Two pictures of 'Hong Kong Island Mystery Cases,' please!"
The movie "The New Legend of the Condor Heroes" was exciting, but the plot was actually not that great, and the final box office was only over 800 million.
It's not as good as the earlier released film, "When Peach Ripens".
Li Lizhen, with just two breasts, single-handedly raked in over 1200 million at the box office.
【Peach】 doesn't have much of a storyline, but they play it really well.
Who wouldn't be confused by the scene of Li Lizhen lifting her T-shirt on the roadside?
Unfortunately, it has already finished its run in theaters.
He Xixuan's choice of "The Mysterious Cases of Hong Kong Island" was written by Wong Jing, directed by Andrew Lau, and starred Chingmy Yau, Simon Yam, and Cheng Ho-Nam.
The cast is also quite good.
The original timeline grossed over 1370 million at the box office, even more than "Peach".
Well, the reason I'm comparing this movie to "Peach" is because this movie has a subtitle after its title.
【The Most Bizarre Case in Hong Kong Island: The Strongest Case】!
The rating is Level 3!
Wong Jing wrote the script and cast Chingmy Yau in a three-part film—can you believe it?
The audience didn't believe it either, so even more people chose to watch the movie.
And Wong Jing didn't lie.
This movie is indeed a three-part film, and Chingmy Yau is indeed the lead actress.
However, she didn't reveal...
Including other films starring Chingmy Yau, such as "The Secret Life of Empress Dowager Cixi," although they all have erotic scenes, they don't actually show any nudity.
This did not prevent Chingmy Yau from gaining the title of a sex symbol, which led to more film contracts and opportunities.
Of course, while "The Case of Hong Kong Island" may not have Chingmy Yau's high-energy scenes, it still contains plenty of violence and sexual content.
This kind of movie is definitely the best choice for couples on a date.
The waiter looked up at Zhong Liti, who was wearing a mask and hat behind He Xi, and a knowing look instantly appeared on his face.
"Sir, would you like a seat in the last corner row?"
He Xi immediately gave her a grateful look.
"Then I'll leave it to you!"
Have fun!
The waiter prepared two movie tickets and handed them over with a smile.
The word "play" is used very cleverly.
He Xi smiled and accepted it, then led the way toward the screening room.
Behind him, Chung Li-ti suddenly asked.
"Oh, he just said he wished us to have fun, right?"
Why not say "watching" for fun? Is this some kind of special usage in Cantonese?
He Xi frowned, feigning ignorance.
"He meant 'look,' but there were too many people around, so I didn't hear him clearly."
"Let's hurry up and get going, the show's about to start!"
Inside the screening room, only a few people were scattered around in the front and middle rows, indicating that the occupancy rate was not high.
But as the two walked further back, they discovered that the rows behind them were almost full.
The movie started shortly after the two found their seats.
The visuals are quite graphic, and the plot is very tense.
However, after watching for less than ten minutes, Christy Chung found it difficult to concentrate on the movie.
There was nothing we could do; all we could hear were rustling and humming sounds all around us.
Even if she were slow to understand, she would know what those sounds meant.
