My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 1487 The idle actor and his friends, the operation of public opinion in the Hong Kong film market

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket!Ask for a monthly pass!
On weekends, people come and go in Dashilan, and many young men and women wait in line in front of the Daguanlou photo studio with ticket stubs in their hands.

The posters of "Farewell My Concubine" and "No Man's Land" are in the most prominent positions. The former has been in theaters for more than half a year, and the attendance rate is still sparse, while the latter is quite popular.

Even become a fashion.

The scale of this movie is very large, but compared to the censorship of the 90s, it is still acceptable. After all, many post-80s and post-90s were organized to watch "Black Sun 731" when they were in elementary school. Upright and fair are constantly rebroadcasting... I don't see the children at that time becoming radical.

In comparison, the scale of "No Man's Land" is far behind.

Since the film was regarded as the standard of black humor films by many film critics, filmmakers and stars, many young people began to follow suit, especially the music of the same name was played on the radio, which attracted many fans.

"Excuse me, please give me 7 tickets for "Stand Up Straight, Don't Get Down." At the window, a melancholy and elegant man with a beard and wearing half-sleeve shorts and Li Ning sneakers took the initiative to buy tickets.

"Wait a minute—" The conductor kept his hands on his hands, and from the corner of his eye, he glanced at the stubble-bearded man with his head bowed in front of him, feeling a little familiar for no reason.

Seeing the other party look over, the man smiled slightly.

"Hey... Did you say that you look a bit like Zhang Guoying, a famous Hong Kong star?" The female conductor blinked and looked at the man who was handing out the money in front of her, her eyes searching.

"Is there? Some people in the neighborhood call me Xiao Zhang Guoying." The man smiled easily, without any feeling of depression.

"Hey, you are so humorous. Come on, Zhang Guoyi is not as poor as your Beijing movie, 21 yuan." The female conductor smiled and handed over 7 movie tickets.

Brother Zhang Guoying took it with a smile, turned and left.

"People may not believe that the big star Zhang Guoyi will be so approachable to come and line up to buy movie tickets in person."

Aunt Lin wore a single ponytail, a pair of classic sunglasses on the bridge of her nose, and two small and delicate platinum pearl earrings on her earlobes.

The upper body is a silk pearl shirt, and the collar reveals a touch of whiteness and plumpness. The simple Cartier necklace just embellishes the sexiness, and it is not so obtrusive. The overall appearance is clean and dignified.

The light-colored dark green acetate skirt on the lower body not only makes the overall effect more translucent, but also sets off the fair complexion.The simple and hollow white pointed sandals on the feet can give people a calm and beautiful psychological feeling when matched as a whole.

A simple and generous off-white bag full of minimalist style is carried on the shoulder, which is very low-key.

——If someone is knowledgeable, he will recognize it at a glance. This is the entry-level Evelyne of Hermès. If he knows a little more, he will see that this mini19 size bag with a special strap is obviously not a general model, but a limited model.

Compared with platinum bags that cost millions and Kelly bags and Kangkang bags that cost 2 or 3 W, the price of Evelyne is indeed very "people-friendly", basically around [-] to [-] yuan~~ If you say too much, you will cry.

Auntie Peach's special commemorative model limited to 9 pieces worldwide is not too expensive, only '18' Hong Kong dollars.

"I even went to Bianyifang to eat roast duck~~"

With a beard, but not without the sense of decadence in the past, Zhang Guoyi, whose eyes are getting brighter and brighter, couldn't help shaking his head, and sighed helplessly, "Isn't this flattering our Director Wu~~"

"Plaguing? Recently, the brokerage company and the record company have sent pleading calls to my private number."

Wu Xiaozu's white short-sleeves are paired with Ruifuxiang's silk bloomers, he is stepping on Neiliansheng cloth shoes, and he is holding an ivory folding fan in his hand.

This folding fan was recently done business with Ma Ye, and the other party gave him an extra head. This fan is the work of Yu Shuo, a master of Jiangnan ivory carving in the late Qing Dynasty.

Shaking gently, it doesn't feel precious.

After finishing the Shanghai International Film Festival, he accompanied a group of people to the Xiangguo Film City to make the film city famous.

fruitful.

"Yi Tian Tu Long Ji: The Demon Sect Leader", "Once Upon a Time in the Wind of the King", "The Ranger of the East", "The Killer Tang Zhan", "One Sword Allure", "The True Colors of the Heroes of the Water Margin", "The Hero Su Qier" , "Burning the Red Lotus Temple" and more than 20 films have signed cooperative preferential agreements, and they will basically be shot in the film city.

Overseas, part of the filming of "Thug in Suit 3: Raiders of the Magic City" that Kang Te-gyu of Korea is planning to shoot is also placed here.

At the same time, some production companies in Southeast Asia, Japan, Europe, and North America have also clearly signed the inspection agreement, which is a good start.

"Impression·Xiangguo" live-action song and dance drama has also received unanimous praise from Chinese and foreign people, and is expected to become Xiangguo's repertoire, and the "Impression" series will also be owned and developed by the newly established "Xiangguo Culture Company".

Searchlight Media and Sing Tao Media have also held shares in this company, and the advantages in publicity are not insignificant.

"I don't want to act, anyway, the money is enough."

Brother Zhang Guoying is also sincere, "After finishing "Farewell My Concubine", I feel more and more that I should settle down.

It’s not suitable for me to shoot several movies a year like Hong Kong Island.As for the concert... I've already done farewell performances, so I don't want to make a fool of myself.

When I really have an idea to make a record, I will probably consider it, sooner or later..."

Speaking of this, brother Zhang Guoying looked at Wu Xiaozu with a smile, and joked:

"Director Wu, please remember me if there is a good show, I am also very cheap... not much more expensive than Brother Hui, besides, I can get a discount, or even free."

"Wow, did I make a mistake, the winner of the Cannes Film Festival is robbing me for a job? Is there any reason? Brother, you are maliciously promoting~~Unfair competition."

Wearing silk hair and toad glasses, Liang Jiahui, who was wearing a flowery shirt and big pants with a casual demeanor, walked over with a soda in his hands, feigning atmosphere.

Feng Xiaogang bent over with a fan stuck in the back of his neck. The latter gave the ice cream and mineral water in the bag to everyone, not forgetting the two bodyguards who followed, "Brother, quench your thirst, authentic cold sour plum soup."

"Thank you."

The two bodyguards quickly thanked them.

"Men, you also know that I am the Cannes Best Actor." Zhang Guoyi smiled brightly while biting a brick ice cream.

"Hey, Mr. Zhang, you have an authentic Beijing accent!" Little Steel Cannon hit the nail on the head, flattering with a pointed thumb.

Carrying the fan from the back of his neck, he fanned Wu Xiaozu inadvertently, and said to others: "I don't look at the face, I really think it's an authentic Peiping person~~"

"^_^~~haha." Mr. Zhang smiled all over his face, "I'll make a movie later, and I'll make a scene for you."

"That's a good relationship, and I'll also be in your honor." Xiaogang Pao's teeth showed in his smile, and he really didn't expect to have an unexpected harvest today.

"Come on, go in and have a look."

Wu Xiaozu shook his fan, feeling like he was visiting privately, and at the same time said to his brother Zhang Guoyi: "You asked me to ask about the Liyuan, I asked for you, and now there is really a chance in terms of the property rights of Sanqingyuan on the Dashilar side. , I'll introduce someone to you later, let's talk in detail."

"Okay."

Brother Zhang Guoyan smiled, his joy was beyond words.

After studying Peking Opera, the fact that he himself is more interesting than his previous life is because Wu Xiaozu specially found him a professional Peking Opera teacher and arranged relevant people for him.

Through study, he also learned some history of Peking Opera.

For some reason, I decided to buy a 'play garden' on a whim.

Uh... It can only be said that the rich and powerful.

However, the prices of these unrenovated ancient theater buildings and teahouses at this time were indeed not high.

Wu Xiaozu is also going to see if he can buy Guangde Building, Tianqiao, Sanqing Garden...etc. These old opera gardens, and have the right to invest and manage money.

A group of people entered the movie theater, and the people around couldn't imagine that the big stars and directors came to watch the movie together, and what they watched was an authentic domestic movie.

Compared with the popularity of "No Man's Land", "Stand Up Straight and Don't Get Down" seems much deserted.Huang Jianxin's film is actually very classic, and the filming of small characters is particularly flavorful.

This year, the Ministry of Radio, Film and Television issued "Several Opinions on Deepening the Reform of the Film Industry Mechanism". , and gradually cancel the unified purchase and marketing policy.

The most important of these is 'cancellation of unified purchase and marketing'.

That is to say, starting this year, domestic feature films will no longer be uniformly distributed by China Film Corporation, but will be distributed and screened directly by the film studios themselves to the film market.

In the future, the various film studios will have to distribute their films to earn box office, otherwise...they may not even have the money to buy film.

This is equivalent to the "reform and opening up, dividing fields to households" in the film industry.

It directly promoted the development of co-production films.

Especially China-Hong Kong co-productions.

This has caused the stock price of the Hong Kong stock market to increase instead of falling to a certain extent.

After all, this is definitely not bad news for Hong Kong films.

But in fact, to a certain extent, this is just painting cakes to satisfy hunger and drinking poison to quench thirst... The disadvantages of Hong Kong films have long been accumulated, and serious illnesses are difficult to cure.

"'China-Hong Kong co-production will bring Hong Kong films into a stage of rapid development!'" - "Sing Tao Daily".

"'Huang Pak-ming: Hong Kong films never rely solely on a certain market. We have to find our own way out. Going north is nothing more than an option!'" - Ming Pao.

“‘Yesterday, the third negotiation meeting between the Hong Kong Island Producers Association and the Wanwan Film Manufacturers Association ended. We are far apart for the time being, so it would be great to sit down and talk!), and promote mutual understanding (we have great differences!), Mr. Wang Yingxiang, the representative of Taiwanese businessmen, expressed deep regret that he and Mr. Huang Baiming did not reach an agreement (how to say , you boy just don’t listen to persuasion), and reserves the right to make further reactions (I’m going to retaliate against you at any time)...』” —— “Daily Daily”.

"Daily Daily"'s descriptive report's show operation directly made all Hong Kong citizens laugh.

The sales are directly sold out!
Moreover, everyone in Hong Kong knows that the director of the production company headed by Huang Baiming is negotiating about Hong Kong films.

Regarding Huang Baiming's tough idea of ​​confrontation, there are different opinions and evaluations.

But it is undeniable that a report by "Daily Daily" directly brought the contradiction between the two parties into the public eye.

seem……

It's hard to go back.

The pressure of public opinion is on both sides!
None of them expected that "Daily Daily" would suddenly expose such tacit contradictions to countless pairs of eyes—everyone was watching.
