My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 841 The Christmas season is full of gunpowder, a new opportunity to start anew
PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket.

As night fell, the streets of Mong Kok were crowded with people.

All the shopping malls on the street have signs for Christmas promotions, and you can feel the strong festive atmosphere a week in advance.

The flagship theaters of the three largest theater chains on Hong Kong Island meet at the crossroads. There are already crowds of people in front of the theaters, and mobile hawkers are selling sugar cane, fried chestnuts, marinated beef offal, roasted corn, popcorn, fish balls, etc. All kinds of snacks and aromas are intertwined, the ticket window is overcrowded, and spectators waiting to enter the venue also line up a long queue.

It can be seen how vigorously Hong Kong Island's film industry was developing at this time.

Some time ago, the stock prices related to North American movies soared, and the dividends of the entire industry increased sharply.The popularity of movies in North America has also allowed Southeast Asia, which did not care about the many capitals in the film market, to find new opportunities and reasons to enter.

In the original time and space, around 1989 and 1990, a large amount of capital entered frantically, which completely contributed to the precursor of the collapse of Hong Kong films.History is really a reincarnation. Around 2015, the same capital was overheated, and then the movie market, which was originally booming, took a turn for the worse. In a blink of an eye, the movie market was crying...

This time and space is even worse than the previous life.

Especially in this life, after Wu Xiaozu, the big boss, "cleared up" the right and wrong in the circle, many "capitals" that were originally "unscrupulous" after a period of silence, suddenly took advantage of this opportunity to enter the capital and poured in again.

Of course, following the last big parade, those people also somewhat restrained themselves.

Associations such as Directors Association, Actors Association, Screenwriters Association, Photography Association, Martial Artists Association, and Behind-the-scenes Personnel Association have been established one after another, and the entire film system has been improved.

With the establishment of this intertwined network of relationships, Wu Zhazu's voice really began to affect more people. . . . . .

After all, what a boss!
The industry tends to be formalized, making many rich men with "foresight" think that the market of Hong Kong films in Southeast Asia can be compared to the popularity of the market in North America today.

This is also the reason why the E7 culture has risen with the stock market. Coupled with the hot box office of "Dragon Inn" in the mainland, people seem to see another possibility.

That's right.

E7 culture is the 'Luckin Coffee' of Hong Kong Island's film industry. Many people believe that it has unlimited potential and can grow into a giant.After all, this is how old beauty develops...

If you don’t believe me, look at the streets of Hong Kong Island today.

The hot street scene in Mong Kok is nothing, you can go straight ahead, and within 10 minutes, there are 800 movie theaters that have sprung up like mushrooms in the vicinity of Jordan Road, 300 meters away, within a radius of 9 meters.

The industry dividend has reached its peak.

and so--

Before Christmas officially arrives, several theaters are showing new movies in turn to grab the box office.

Yongsheng Film Company, Yongsheng Entertainment and Sanhe Film Company jointly produced a film titled social education, and invited Wan Ziluan together with three popular actresses, Mu Sairen, Wen Bijue, and Li Liyan, and also The veteran meatball porn star Jin Yanling was invited to accompany the play, which has attracted much attention.

It has to be said that as a screenwriter, Nan Yan's works, even if they are just for making money, are still online.Debao also played "Night Passion" directed by He Fan's borderline work to provoke the audience.

Zhang Guoming also recruited Lu Liangwei, Ren Dahua and others to shoot the crime film "Crocodile at the Bottom"...Gao Zhisen also brought "Mr. Cheating" to steal the chicken, and Golden Princess Entertainment gave a lot of film arrangements

In addition, Western theaters also released films such as "Quest for the Insect Eaters", "Little Man in Shinjuku", and "Secretly Trying to Love the Clouds" to make money.

The whole market is in chaos.

You know, many people in the industry have already judged that the headline work of the Christmas file is the big IP of 2 Locomotive + Zhou Xingxing's new work "Gambler [-]: Battle on the Bund".

Before it is released, of course it will be a fortune to make a fortune!
For them, the money from bad movies is also very fragrant... Everyone is rushing to cheat money.

……

There was a lot of traffic and colorful lights. In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, Lei Yunlong sat with his butt next to the desk, with a cigar in his mouth, staring at Huang Baiming in front of him with an unhappy expression, and sneered.

"You say you're arranging the film? Do you really think that the Golden Princess Cinema is opened by your family? Do you think I don't want to arrange the film for you?
Fuck... You can't ask me to persuade Golden Princess Entertainment to move away from my show and give you the schedule, right?Do you think Princess Jin can still speak to me now? "

"Boss, my company also has your share..."

Huang Baiming shook the wine glass in his hand, his eyes bulging and his brows furrowed, "The Lunar New Year holidays must not be handed over to others for nothing. We will also make family movies! We are now good enough to sign star movie contracts, just waiting for you to ask..."

"Gao Zhisen's "Mr. Cheating" is arranged for Christmas, and I have already tried my strength. In the worst case, I will withdraw the shares." Lei Yunlong said nonchalantly.

"boom!!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Jiecheng suddenly smashed a pen container on the ground, turned around, and looked at him sneeringly, "Then back off!"

That's right, the two people who used to wheel chairs, punch and kick each other in the private room in Chinatown are now ironically standing under the same roof and even doing things together.

"Want to drive me away? Okay..."

Lei Yunlong spread his hands rascally, "Give me 2000 million Hong Kong dollars, and I will disappear in front of your eyes immediately. When I don't know that a new boss has made an offer for Yonggao Films? Tell you, if you want to dismiss me... there is no way!"

"Then shut up the fuck! Although your brother has lost Nine Dragons, at least he is still the chairman of Golden Princess Entertainment, and he still holds shares in Nine Dragons Bus and a large amount of property. What do you have?"

Luo Jiecheng has long since lost the careful service he used to, and said with disdain: "I'm just pulling you to make money together! What do you really think you are?"

"Whatever you say, call me anytime if you change your mind!" Lei Yunlong smiled generously and left.

The door is closed.

Huang Baiming bent down to pick up the torn pen holder.

"Nowadays, Golden Princess Entertainment is increasing its self-produced films. Now their strategy is that there are not many soldiers and elites. You can see that they are starting to reserve good resources and schedules for their own people. It is difficult for us to have good schedules." Huang Bai Ming said leisurely.

"I don't believe it. Without him, Lei Tuhu, I can still eat hairy pigs? At worst, I will move to other theaters..." Luo Jiecheng snorted dissatisfied, "Could everyone still have trouble with money?"

"Really speaking, our goal is also very narrow, only Debao..." Speaking of this, Huang Baiming suddenly paused, his eyes fell into thinking, and his whole body seemed to be frozen.

"What about Debao? Huh??"

"Ok??"

"Hey, are you okay?"

Luo Jiecheng couldn't help raising his voice, and stretched out his hand to push.

"Luo sir! Now we may really have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make a comeback!!!!"

Huang Baiming's eyes lit up, as if he drank ice water during the dog days, his face couldn't hide his excitement, "If we seize this opportunity, we may become the top five film groups in Hong Kong!"

Luo Jiecheng went in without knowing it, with a suspicious look on his face.

You were fooling around like this at the beginning~~ It caused me to compete for New Art City, and then I was robbed in advance by [-], and then I went to rob Golden Princess Entertainment, and then I was stabbed in the back by [-] and the Lei family, fortunately The main target is Feng Bingzhong, who has Lei's family on his side and can still keep a decent face.

Now you come again? ? ?
"In 1985, Shaw leased its Jade, Gold, Baosheng and Mandarin to Debao Company, and in 1986, the entire set of Shaw Cinemas was transferred to Debao, which formed the Debao Cinemas on the market today.

As far as I know, Ms. Fang has been intending to renegotiate the rent, but Pan Diche has been procrastinating.

The lease expires next year, we can definitely sign Shaw Brothers' leading theater and start anew!Set up your own cinema! "Huang Baiming became more and more excited as he talked.

"Establish a cinema chain?" Luo Jiecheng also became interested.

This is much better than forcibly intervening in the Golden Princess Theater!
"How sure are you?"

"Now I'm only [-]% sure, because I know that Boss Pan has always wanted to devote himself to other businesses.

Mr. Luo, wait a minute, I'll call Curly Cen. "Huang Baiming couldn't help saying that he picked up the mobile phone and dialed it, but the busy signal on the other side was busy.

"Cen... didn't he leave Debao Lexie? It seems that he has been making literary films now, right?? Debao's matter is still related to him?" After Luo Jie entered the circle, he also knew a little bit from a beginner .

"That's right, Curly Cen chose to resign because of conflicts with Pan Diche. After leaving, he and Chen Guanzhong founded the director and production company. Especially after Wu Xiaozu's films became famous and rich in the world, he was even more ambitious. Continuously supporting writer-directors such as Leung Pu-chi, Tam Ka-ming, Maggie Cheung, and Lu Jian-ming to start films... Now it is the largest production company and promoter of literary films on Hong Kong Island.

However, he himself has a lot of prestige in Debao, and he single-handedly brought Debao to the top.If it wasn't for Wen Qing's faults, it would be difficult for Xian Qiran to shake his position.

It is said that Zeng Zhiwei also wanted to learn from him to support literary films a while ago, so he asked Feng Bingzhong to discuss the matter of literary theaters... Unfortunately, he later felt that it was whimsical, so he gave up, but he also helped Feng Bingzhong introduce Wanwan Capital, so that he has the opportunity to reorganize the country. capital.

If you want me to say, this group of people just think too much..."

Huang Baiming is actually not disgusted with literary films, otherwise he would not have participated in writing the script of a literary and musical film such as "Hit the Wrong Car".But... he is a businessman at heart, and he likes young models...

So it is destined that he will not touch such a subject.

This is also a matter of character.

"However, the literary films promoted by 6000 are really making money in the international market. "City of Sadness" has earned millions of dollars abroad. I heard people say that the show has been extended in Wanwan. The whole Wanwan has at least NT$[-] million. .”

"But how many "City of Sadness" are there?" Huang Baiming sneered, "What's more, didn't you find that [-] is very good at controlling costs when making literary films? It even borrows chickens to lay eggs..."

Luo Jie nodded after hearing the words.

Wu Xiaozu himself would not know, because of his serial pitfalls, Huang Baiming and Luo Jiecheng's "Yonggao Film Company" went to Qiao Debao's corner ahead of time.

In this way, the history of Yonggao Cinemas may also be ahead of schedule.

Still the same sentence, buying theaters at this time, one is not good, and after two years, it will be a situation of working for the landlord.

The [-] locomotive is now the Xinbao Cinema Line, which is the harvest of the hay and the rabbit.

At the same time, the company’s other small daily theater chain is also developing steadily on the basis of its own properties...

　I went for an MRI today, and the lumbar bone spurs and lumbar disc herniation were severe...It almost hurt me to death last night.
