My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 151 Unpredictable mind, determine the schedule
PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket! Ask for a monthly ticket!
The Spring Festival file "Legend of Wesley" took the lead, and "Brother Dragon and Brother Tiger" was overwhelming.Two movies with big casts, big productions, and big stars were released a week apart, stirring up changes in the entire Hong Kong Island entertainment industry.

"Cheng Long desperately "Dragon Brothers and Tiger Brothers", his life is on the line!" - "New News",

"Surprise! Cheng Long's new play set off another wave of action, and the dragon brother and the tiger brother show off their power abroad!" —— "Oriental Daily".

"Ni Kuang: Xu Guanjie performed the most original Wesley!" - "Ming Pao".

"The box office of the Spring Festival stalls is rising steadily, and excellent works are appearing frequently!" - "Sing Pao".

Even if it is a tacit match-fixing between the two, Golden Harvest and New Art City will not really hand over the box office to others easily.Staggering the time by a week is already a tacit choice of several parties.Next is still fighting each other.

As soon as Ni Kuang from Xinyi City came out to help the platform, Tan Yonglin, the other leading actor of "Brother Dragon and Brother Tiger" on Jiahe's side, opened a new play to promote it.

Xu Guanjie broke out that "Legend of Wesley" fell into a coma due to lack of oxygen during the filming in Nepal, and Cheng Long almost died!Cracked skull, multiple fractures, unconscious.

The degree of dedication of the two superstars is not to be evaluated, but this kind of news broke out during the film's release stage, and everyone knows that it is to promote the box office.

At this time, it doesn't matter whether it is a big star or a box office guarantee.Even superstars like Cheng Long and Xu Guanjie are very dedicated and hardworking in filming.

Of course, what remains unchanged is the unremitting efforts for film promotion.

The injuries suffered by the stars during filming are naturally part of the film's gimmicks.

Cheng Long's movies in the 80s and 90s did not mention whether he borrowed one or two doubles, but Cheng Long's "death-fighting" label was indeed spelled out by himself.

Big Nose tries his best to gain a place in every drama. In this regard, Fang Shilong is indeed qualified to enjoy the many abalone feasts in the entertainment industry.Why can't I get the chance to go to bed with my own life?

Compared with the continuous success of Golden Harvest and New Art City, Debao Film Company, as the giant with the third largest theater chain in its hands, seems a little weak in its successor.There is not much production pressure.

At the end of 1986, Debao fought too hard, "Dragon in the Rivers and Lakes", "Brothers", and "Brothers of Police and Thieves" successively attracted money and sniped.

At the beginning of 1987, light comedies such as "Happy Five" couldn't stop the impact of Cheng Long and Xu Guanjie.Debao, an upstart in the film industry, is still no match for the veteran team Golden Harvest and the universe team Golden Princess.

Golden Harvest has a strong heritage, Xu's (Xu Guanwen), Weihe, Baohe, Dalu (Cai Lan), Heping and other famous film companies are all distributed by it.

Where is the golden princess?

Called the 80's cosmic team!Well-funded and all-encompassing.

Needless to say, the head star Xinyi City, just pulling it out is enough to fight against Golden Harvest's Big Mac.The entire company includes New Arts City Production Company, New Arts City (Shatin) Studio, Oriental Printing, New Arts Editing Studio, etc.A real movie industry titan.A real movie business.

The reason why companies such as Maidangxiong Film Company and Siyuan Films can only be called independent production companies is because they can only film!

1024 locomotive!Just a leather bag company!So, if you really want to catch up with these giants, you have a long way to go!
Other film companies under the Golden Princess are also famous for a while, such as Yongjia, Film Studio, Eryou, Liu Shi, and Yu Yunkang Company!

Debao is much weaker in comparison. Zhong, Bigao, Teyi, Gaopeng, and Kaifu are all unknown and have no masterpieces.Only Yu Rentai's Longtai is still somewhat famous.This is also the reason why Debao is used to releasing films from other independent production companies.

Antai, 1024 Locomotive, and Yongsheng chose Debao for this reason.

What about Debao?
I'm afraid Poon Dick-sang and Sin Chi-ran hope to use the films of the three as a backing.On the one hand, it consumes the enthusiasm of "Brothers of Dragon" and "Legend of Wesley", and on the other hand, it paves the way for its big production "Final Victory".

……

Debao.

The atmosphere in the conference room was gloomy.Debao was slightly embarrassed by the hot box office of New Art City and Golden Harvest.

"how?"

Xian Qiran left the newspaper on the conference table, "Pan Sheng called us early in the morning to ask if there is anything we can do, everyone should think about it."

"Aaron's attack is fierce this time, more than 5 million in just 1000 days." Zhang Jiazhen lit his cigarette and took a puff. "Now we are in a hurry to go up, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. Even if we can snipe, it's not worth the loss."

"Actually, there is no other way..."

Cen Jianxun confidently ordered the table, "Didn't Aetna and 1024 have a "Young and Dangerous" going to be screened two days ago? Why don't we arrange for them to be screened in advance?"

Xian Qiran's eyes lit up.

"The approximate time of the schedule has already been announced, and now I have changed my mind..." Zhang Jiazhen hesitated, "I'm afraid it will damage Debao's reputation."

"Don't worry. Debao didn't ask them to release the movie. If you don't want to, you can switch to another one. Besides, the schedule is just an outline. It's normal to change the schedule like this!" Cen Jianxun changed the screen Looking stupid, he looks extraordinarily shrewd and cunning.

"Who is the original schedule?" Xian Qiran asked the staff next to him.

"Gao Zhisen Film Company's "Wealthy Man"." The person next to him replied.

"Don't worry, I'll arrange this matter. "Wealthy Man" has our investment. There is no need to rush forward to be cannon fodder for New Art City and Golden Harvest. The "Young and Dangerous" just happens to be their life , lost..."

Cen Jianxun narrowed his eyes and looked proud, "It's not that we don't give them a chance!"

"agree!"

"I agree!"

The senior executives of Debao next to him all agreed, everyone knows that dead friends don't die poor people.

Now that the box office competition is fierce, Debao naturally gives priority to protecting the movies in which he invests. Is it true that he sacrifices himself to feed others?
They are making movies, not running brothels.

If people don't eat chicken, they will be destroyed by heaven and earth!
Jiang Zhiqiang asked for a schedule so much, let him arrange it!
That Wu Xiaozu, isn't he very capable?

Seeing Zhang Jiazhen raise his hand helplessly, Cen Juimao smiled contemptuously, he was not targeting anyone, he was targeting Wu Xiaozu.

"The Birth of a Prefix" is praised by some, and naturally others will dislike it.

He never regarded Wu Xiaozu's point of view as a real art film.

As for the title of "Successor of the New Wave" that some film critics praised, he even dismissed it.

Obviously it's just a slanted sword, what art are you talking about?
People with his ideas are very popular in Hong Kong Island intellectual film circles.Aren't all the New Wave people named Tsui Hark?Not everyone will really accept Wu Xiaozu.

Especially for a title like Akira Kurosawa on Hong Kong Island, it is natural to recruit gangsters!
If someone says Wu Xiaozu is handsome, then it cannot be argued, everyone can see it.But something like art... huh!
Anyway, Cen Jianxun didn't take it seriously.He is also preparing to shoot a "writer's film" with his friends Chen Guanzhong and Tang Jiming, who are real literary and artistic circles. He will pay tribute to Akira Kurosawa and tell those film critics what "Seven Samurai" is called in Hong Kong Island!
In later generations, Cen Jianxun formed a film company of the director and production company to shoot a series of so-called writer's films.After that, it seemed that there was no news, but in fact, this guy has been active in the film circle.

Dadi Cinema is a project he invested in, which many people probably don't know.

Many Hong Kong Island filmmakers, especially the so-called elite literary and artistic elements, are doing dirty things with the mainland's bowl.In contrast, big stars like Liang Xiaoguo and Liu Laomo are more frank and pure.

Cen Juanmao himself doesn't like Wu Xiaozu, a "young and Dangerous boy" who came from a lower class.But business is business, so he will not prevent "Young and Dangerous" from being released in Debao.

However, he is still willing to teach Wu Xiaozu a lesson when he can.

To be honest, if it wasn't for Wu Xiaozu's two consecutive dramas with good word-of-mouth box office success, he would have been sprayed to death by the literary and art circles.

Those intellectuals who claim to be elites do not regard Wu Xiaozu's films as real art!
What's more, Wu Xiaozu's background is naturally against them!
Director Wu himself didn't know that a good young man like himself, who was kind, helpful, handsome and rich, was missed by many elites.

He didn't even know that in this life, he had robbed the schedule of "Rich and Rich".

In the previous life, Debao got a blessing in disguise, and the low-budget comedy "Rich and Rich" became a box office dark horse during the Spring Festival that year. In this life... I'm afraid it will be postponed!
When Jiang Zhiqiang and Wu Xiaozu received the news, they immediately knew that they were in the dark!
　The state of these chapters is not good, it may be because of running outside continuously.Sometimes I have a busy day, and when I arrive at the hotel, I have no time to follow the outline.Many plots are written but not written out.It's been 18 years now, and I have been patrolling the branch with the big boss, and I have been busy all day... and I can't let the big boss see the code words.Please bear with me.If there is no holiday on New Year's Day, I will continue to work...
