My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 781 "The Gambler" was released, and a new label was added
PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket.

In mid-to-late September, "The Gambler" premiered at Xinbao Cinema as scheduled.

In the previous life, after Liu Zhenwei finished filming "The Gambler", Wang Jing urgently recruited people to rush to shoot "The Gambler".

This is why the character settings of Zhou Xingxing in the two dramas are roughly the same, but the character names are completely different, because the copyright of the previous drama is not in Yongsheng's hands.

"The Holy Gambler" set a new box office record in Hong Kong Island, and it is a follow-up work.

This kind of borderline and plagiarism abounds in the film industry——

Doesn't the famous IQ tax animated film "Autobots" in later generations plagiarize "Cars" without shame?

As for why Disney chose to appeal to the two producers and publishers of Ludao City and Didu in Shanghai Intellectual Property Court?You know... After all, the park is located in Shanghai.

This routine is exactly the same as Nanshan Pizza Hut.

In this life, Liu Zhenwei has a strong background of [-] locomotives, so he was naturally the first to produce this companion chapter of "The Saint of Gamblers" to collect money for food.

Investors in this film also include Zhang Guozhong's Yi Neng Films, Xiang Sheng's Yongsheng Films, and Xiang Yu's Yongsheng Entertainment.

Although the Xiang family brothers are not parting ways in name, they do have their own plans in reality.

In the past few years, Yi Neng Pictures has been silent, but its development momentum is very strong. In 1986, Zhang Guozhong entered the production market in order to support Hua Tsai, and first cooperated with Yongsheng to produce "Magic Emerald".

Immediately afterwards, the two companies entered the honeymoon period, forming a set of fixed team models produced by Yongsheng + art production + director Wang Jing, and successively launched the "Hardcover Chasing Girls" series and "Best Lost Friend" series of films, with box office Great results.

In fact, during this period, Yineng Pictures produced, invested, and produced more films than Yongsheng, and even compared with the number of films produced by [-] Locomotive, it is well established as the number one film on Hong Kong Island. Five major movie producers.

On the one hand, Zhang Guozhong cooperated with Xiao Jinghui, a well-known western film dealer in Asia, to produce gangster action films such as "True Tomorrow" and "Twin Heroes", and at the same time learned the style of Hollywood action films for shooting.

At the same time, Yineng Pictures has also caught up with another independent film industry master - Mai Dangjie.

That's why the "Inside the Law" series came into existence, and it's no surprise why "The Banners of the Province and Hong Kong 3" will star Liu Dehua.

In the film "The Gambler", Liu Dehua was finally chosen to participate in it, because Yi Neng paid half of the money.

Among the new generation of male idol stars in Hong Kong Island, Liu Dehua's momentum has not been weak. Some people compared him with Luo Dong a few years ago, but with Luo Dong leading the way alone, especially with "God of Gamblers" and "City of Sadness" "'s wonderful performance, obviously has successfully evolved from an idol to a powerful idol, which is equivalent to the difference between a young actor and a young actor.I have to say that the performance in "City of Sadness" is definitely a movie king.

Slightly ahead of Andy Lau...well...10 years. ╮(╯▽╰)╭!
But it doesn't mean that Liu Dehua's popularity is low, on the contrary, he is very popular!Therefore, during this period of time, he was used by Star Entertainment to tie up with Liming in marketing, and was named the 'Idol Gemini'.

If it's really not popular, who would choose him...

Being able to 'tear up' the resources of "The Gambler" this time is also an improvement for Hua Tsai's acting career.

Everyone knows that "The Gambler" is aiming for the top ten of the year... Zhou Xingxing + Liu Dehua double protagonists, plus Wu Mengda, Zhang Min and Qiu Shuzhen.At the same time, Xiang Yu, Ke Shouliang and Cheng Kuimin all participated in the performance.

Not to mention other things, many young and Dangerous young people in Xin'an will take the initiative to watch this drama.

In the plan, E7 Culture is also planning to spend 500 million Hong Kong dollars to cooperate with the promotion and distribution in Southeast Asia.The cost of production + publicity and distribution, this drama properly exceeds 1800 million Hong Kong dollars.Excluding the theaters and film dealers' share, not counting offline profits, this movie needs at least 4500 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office in Southeast Asia to pay back.

However, both Zhang Guozhong of Yineng Films and Xiang Sheng of Yongsheng believe in the return ratio of this film.

clap clap-

In the theater, there was thunderous applause.

Liu Zhenwei led the main creative staff to give a speech in front of the stage with a red face, and the five leading actors Zhou Xingxing, Liu Dehua, Zhang Min, Qiu Shuzhen and Wu Mengda were all smiling and accepting interviews.

Zhou Xingxing is like a koi. After suddenly becoming popular, countless people want to get in touch with him.

In history, it is hard to say whether Zhang Min would be popular without Zhou Xingxing.In other words, Zhang Min's role should be replaced by any qualified vase.On Pingren, Zhou Xingxing has its own "carrying goods" attribute.

Above the box on the second floor, many people looked at the audience who reacted strongly, and all showed satisfied smiles.

As for those film critics who find a different way, that is not what they have to consider... "God of Gamblers" is so exciting and so profitable, there are still many film critics criticizing Wu Xiaozu for being depraved, not to mention Liu Zhenwei's film.

He and Wang Jing are the two spokespersons of nonsensical comedy and shit comedy.Meanwhile, their respective comedies have been consistently underwhelming by critics.

Don't look at Zhou Xingxing being praised so highly by film critics in later generations. Before his figure is gone, film critics also look down on him...it was not until "The King of Comedy" that this situation was reversed.

Then... 30 years later, "The New King of Comedy" smashed its reputation to the bottom.

"After this movie, in October, the company is also planning to release three movies: "Young and Dangerous 10", "Fear Room 5" and "Gambler"." Jiang Zhiqiang said to Wu Xiaozu beside him, "If all goes well, "Eight Immortals Hotel" may be released in time for Halloween."

""Gambler"?" Wu Xiaozu was puzzled.

"Liu Zhenwei thinks that the gambling series can continue to dig deeper, and he plans to cast Anita Mui, Li Ming, Qiu Shuzhen, and Wu Mengda in a new gambling film."

"It's best to do a good job of market research. If there are piles of gambling movies, it will inevitably lead to market fatigue. The signboard of [-] Locomotive is very difficult to stand up, but it is also easy to fall down.

Even if it's really for making money, the quality of the movie must be guaranteed... Don't lose the big because of the small. "

Wu Xiaozu bluntly reminded, "Although bad movies can make money, they have a negative effect on the stock price."

"I will remind Liu Zhenwei."

Jiang Zhiqiang's face became serious, and after thinking for a while, he suggested, "Should we establish a new label? As you said, it is not easy to erect the signboard of [-] Locomotive, but the company has passed the director star plan. Can the works of some new directors and low-budget films be placed on other labels? It must be that Hollywood companies also have subsidiaries that specialize in the distribution of low-budget films..."

"You seem to have something else to say?" Wu Xiaozu asked with a smile.

"What I think is that small labels and branches can also give equity incentives to these creators." Jiang Zhiqiang blurted out without hesitation.

"Yes." After thinking for a while, Wu Xiaozu confirmed the proposal with a slight smile.

Human relations are difficult to tie talents.

"Jianghu Emergency Films should also be incorporated into [-] Locomotive first. It mainly develops lll-rated movies and R-rated movies.

Then develop a label responsible for cult films or B-grade movies.At the same time, you can also start a company that specializes in videotape movies. "When Wu Xiaozu mentioned videotape movies, what he thought of was 'Internet University' and TV drama production.

In fact, the development of Hong Kong films can survive with a special niche route...

The video tape market and the subsequent VCD and DVD markets have a life cycle of at least 10-12 years.It might be possible to establish a perfect ladder promotion mechanism, which is definitely a very beneficial thing for the company.

Crew/assistant/associate director/→commercial film director→video tape/CD/Internet University/tv series→theater film director, which ensures that there are enough opportunities, which will be very attractive to talents.

Mainly, such exercise opportunities can be completed within the group.

"I'll go back and study with President Su." Jiang Zhiqiang was gearing up, Wu Xiaozu's support undoubtedly boosted his confidence.Wu Xiaozu recruited Su Liyao to be the president of the group.

He put his mind on film creation and planned to go to Vietnam today, but he promised that the new film in Mecca should be prepared as soon as possible.

"By the way, what President Su means is that the net can be closed?" Thinking of the plan, Jiang Zhiqiang couldn't help but sigh: "This opportunity is really a pity."

"Normal, a centipede will not freeze until death. Don't worry—" Wu Xiaozu didn't take it seriously.

"It might be better for me to stay alive." When he said this, he nodded and smiled at the few people walking not far away.

"Wu sir—"

Wearing a double-breasted suit, a spotted tie, and a corsage on his chest, the gentle Xiang Sheng greeted Wu Xiaozu with a smile.

The middle-aged man with black face and long eyebrows and deep law lines beside him is Zhang Guozhong, the boss of Yi Neng Pictures, and Xiang Yu and Chen Lan are at the end of the crane.

"Xiang Sheng—"

Wu Xiaozu also greeted him with a smile.This is the first time the two have met since the anti-gangster parade on Hong Kong Island.

Xiang Shisan and Xiang Laoshi suppressed Xiang Lao's seven Xiangbo, and at the same time... Wu Xiaozu firmly believed that the Wanchai idiot was their two brothers who cut grass and cleaned up the house.

After going ashore, Wu Xiaozu no longer wanted to participate in this method.

Violent means are really easy to make people confused, mainly because they can't get on the table.

"Don't say hello to us when you come back, let's go get together."

Xiang Yan, who was wearing a black suit and a floral tie, also squeezed out a smile with a slumped face, and Chen Lan beside him was even more enthusiastic, smiling like a flower, and said, "Wu Sheng is so low-key, isn't he busy with some big business?"

"There's no big deal... I'm not afraid of jokes from everyone... I've been dealing with the affairs of Star Entertainment for a while." Wu Xiaozu laughed at himself.

Recently, the action circle of Stellar Entertainment has also heard about it. In just a few days, many people "resigned".

"Ah Xing is really popular now." Xiang Sheng looked down at Zhou Xingxing who was surrounded by Yuji downstairs, and couldn't help smiling.

"He works hard enough and is very popular with the audience."

Jiang Zhiqiang echoed with a smile, "Nowadays, the market welcomes comedies enough, so it is only natural for Xing Zi to be popular."

Several people chatted for a few words before leaving.

At the same time, the network is officially closed!
　I also thought that I could double upgrade or even more until the end of the vacation.In fact, I did try harder... ヾ(°°).

　　In the past few days, my son and I are at home. We not only need three meals a day, but also play with us.The problem is that the kindergarten teacher sends out homework every day... I really can't spare time to code words.I'm going to pick up my wife as soon as possible tomorrow... Otherwise, I guess my son and I will hurt each other.
