Superstars start from Hong Kong Entertainment

Chapter 276 Movie Release
It started in April, with a delay in the middle, and now it is July.

He Jin's thirty-six concerts finally came to an end on this day.

What He Jin gained from this concert was not only a sum of money donated to charity.

In this concert tour, he also gained the hearts of countless fans.

There has always been such a saying in the music world.

A singer who has not given a concert is not a good singer.

A singer who has not toured and interacted closely with his fans on the spot is not a good singer.

Two good singers represent different meanings.

The first one represents singers with singing skills.

Singers who don't know how to sing live and only rely on post-processing may be sought after, but it won't last long.

And the second singer is described as popular.

Only if you have held a concert tour can you explain your popularity.

Comparing the popularity of singers, tabloid vote rankings can be counted as a part, but because newspaper votes are very easy to falsify, this can only be counted as a small part.

Therefore, the most important way to measure the popularity among singers is whether the sales volume and concert tickets are popular.

In a word, whether it is popular or not, what the media says does not necessarily count. It needs sales data and sales of concert tickets to define it.

Of course, if any company not only falsifies sales data, but also falsifies concert tickets.

Then everyone just shut up.

After all, people have spent money, which is not a small amount.

Especially concerts, like He Jin's 36 concerts.

Averaged out, the number of people in each game is about [-].

The global price of a ticket in RMB is 89 yuan.

Calculated from the thirty-six performances, the amount was around [-] million yuan, plus venue fees and concert preparations.

If someone wants to cheat, he has to invest at least tens of millions in it.

Well, if there is such a company, it can only be said to be awesome.

Therefore, generally speaking, the number of people at a concert has always been the defining criterion for whether a singer is popular or not.

……

As He Jin's first Japanese album, He Jin attaches great importance to it.

His goal is very clear, that is to make the sales of this album in Little Japan exceed one million.

Therefore, he is very strict about the production quality of this album.

In order to make this album meet his requirements, he plans to produce this album in Little Japan.

Although he can produce in Hong Kong, but in terms of MV, He Jin still thinks that it is best to use some small Japanese scenes, which can more easily resonate with small Japanese people.

Therefore, instead of running in two places, he felt that it would be better to go directly to Little Japan to produce.

It happened that beyond was still promoting their Japanese single "Distant Dream" in Little Japan, so he could also record the English song "Zombie" by the way.

However, before going to Japan, He Jin chose to rest in Xiangjiang for a few days, and took Zhou Huimin to the premiere of the movie "Yin Yang Road 2" invested by him.

Because the movie "Yin Yang Road 1" was bought out by Huanyu for [-] million in distribution rights and theatrical release rights, He Jin felt distressed for a long time.

Therefore, he didn't foolishly sell the second part through a buyout, but chose to distribute it to Huanyu.

As a low-budget movie that took eleven million box office after its release in April.

Although the box office of the movie "Yin Yang Road" is not as good as those movies that easily cost [-] to [-] million yuan, this movie is very famous in the industry.

Because this is a movie that breaks the previous Hong Kong horror movies that are all zombie movies.

Hong Kong has always had thrillers, and Shaw Brothers had filmed thrillers and ghost films in the [-]s.

But who would have thought that twenty years later, after Chen Jinhui adopted some new ideas, this type of film would actually revive.

According to incomplete statistics, since "Yin Yang Road" was released in April and made He Jin and Huan Yu a fortune, in May, no less than [-] horror ghost films have been approved and started shooting.

Everyone has seen the benefits of this low-budget thriller ghost film from He Jin's investment of [-] million and making a movie that earned more than [-] million at the box office.

Therefore, there are naturally countless followers.

Not only the small company followed suit, as far as He Jin knew, even Sammo Hung was planning to make a horror movie.

I heard that he found his old partner, that is, Lin Zhengying, the famous forest leader in Xiangjiang, and planned to make a ghost film similar to "Yin Yang Road".

As for what their plan is, He Jin is not very clear, nor does he really want to know.

Follow-up shooting has always been the trend of Xiangjiang movies.

There is no movie that is not followed after its success.

Even a big company like Golden Harvest can't do anything about it, and He Jin can't do anything about it, so he can only let it go.

Fortunately for He Jin, the IP "Yin Yang Road" is now in his hands.

Judging from the upsurge of horror and ghost movies set off by the first "Yin Yang Road", although this IP is not as good as IPs like God of Gamblers, it can definitely earn him a lot of extra money.

Anyway, he has now established Huaren Film and Television and found a professional team. As long as he leads the direction in the future, he can get the money he earned from investment every few months without acting.

Since "Yin Yang Road" made a lot of money, He Jin understood why Andy Lau wanted to make a big production.

It is really easy to get money, and it is also easy to show.

After He Jin made money from "Yin Yang Road", he almost had a brainstorm and made a big production to raise his own value.

Fortunately, he thought of Andy Lau's lessons learned from the past, and stopped his thoughts in time.

Otherwise, maybe he is also starring in a movie in a big production now.

Because the first movie of "Yin Yang Road" is a big money maker, Lin Xiaoming of Huanyu made a lot of money because of this movie.

Therefore, after He Jin refused to cooperate with buyout, he immediately formulated a new cooperation model.

This time it's release mode.

Universal is responsible for the distribution and promotion of the film, which received [-]% of the box office.

Afterwards, Golden Harvest was selected as the theater for the release, and Golden Harvest will account for [-]% of the movie's box office.

As the producer and producer, He Jin accounted for forty percent.

Then there is another [-] percent that belongs to taxes.

Forty percent, which is already considered high in Xiangjiang's production share ratio.

At present, the ratio of many unsafe films is about [-]% to [-]%.

Only people with strong box office appeal like Zhou Xingchi can get about [-]% of the film's leading role.

And as a sequel to a successful film, he is insured no matter what, even if the box office drops, it won't go anywhere.

Therefore, He Jin's Hua Ren got such a very high share ratio.

Of course, if this is the case, even if the box office of this movie exceeds [-] million, He Jin probably won't make much money.

Actually not.

For He Jin, the box office is nothing but a small one.

The big head of this kind of horror ghost film should come from the video market.

As long as the film does well at the box office, the revenue from the video will naturally be even higher.

Let's put it this way!At present, the buyout fees of many of Xiangjiang's best-selling films in Singapore and even Taiwan are at least tens of millions.

And "Yin Yang Road" may not reach that many, but the videotapes and theater releases in all regions are at least tens of millions.

As far as He Jin knew, Huanyu earned at least [-] million from the movie "Yin Yang Road" in April.

Therefore, He Jin estimated that if this film had a good box office in Xiangjiang, he invested [-] million more than the first film, and the film with an investment of [-] million may earn him about [-] million.

……

July [-]th.

A very good looking day.

At [-] o'clock in the evening, Golden Harvest Cinema in Kowloon Tong.

He Jin took Zhou Huimin to attend the premiere of the film as the boss.

"The boss is here! Come on, please come inside!"

From a distance, Chen Jinhui came up with a few leading actors.

"He Jin! Did Andy Lau invite you to sing?"

"Jinzi! You are an investor in "Yin Yang Road 2", what is your expected box office?"

"Vivian, the Japanese entertainment magazine broke the news that Shizuka Kudo kissed him during He Jin's concert. What do you say about this? Did you quarrel over it?"

As soon as He Jin and Zhou Huimin arrived at the scene, the reporters who had been waiting for a long time immediately threw Gu Tianle and the others and surrounded them.

"Today we are not the protagonists, please go and interview today's protagonists, thank you!"

He Jin didn't really want to answer the question, so he pulled Zhou Huimin towards Chen Jinhui and the others.

"Brother Jin!"

"Brother Jin!"

"boss!"

Although He Jin kept telling Gu Tianle and others not to call him brother Jin, but these guys didn't listen.

That's what I call him every time I see him.

After a long time, he got used to it and took it as a nickname.

"Take it easy, our movie will be a hit at the box office!"

Seeing that everyone was nervous except Chen Jinhui, who looked indifferent, He Jin comforted him with a smile.

While chatting with a few people, everyone walked towards the theater.

Although He Jin was able to invite many big names to help out in this film, this is a small production after all, so He Jin did not invite others. Except for some film critics and him and Zhou Huimin, the only one who can be called a star is Louis Koo How many people are there.

As with other film premieres, the director speaks first, then stars.

Originally, Chen Jinhui planned to let He Jin also speak a few words on stage, but He Jin refused.

He can be sure that as long as he is on stage, the eyes of the reporters will be all on him.

In order not to overwhelm the host, he chose to sit under the stage and watch with Zhou Huimin.

After Chen Jinhui and others chatted about some interesting things about the filming and the original intention of the script creation on stage, they began to step down one after another, and the movie also started.

The first thing that appeared on the screen was the logo of Huaren Company.

There are no special effects, just a few large characters being typed on the screen.

Afterwards, the logos of Huanyu and Jiahe appeared one after another.

Feature film begins.

The three played by Gu Tianle, Lei Yuyang and Chen Xiaochun are eating noodles in a noodle shop.

The three of them were fighting and fighting.

Suddenly, Bo Tsai, played by Chen Xiaochun, saw a red shadow drifting past the corner.

He thought it was a drunk woman, so lustful he followed her directly.

No, after entering the alley, I didn't find anyone.

As a thriller, director Chen Jinhui naturally added a lot of thrilling music to enhance the atmosphere at this time.

Coupled with the catalysis of the plot, all the people who saw here couldn't help raising their hearts in their throats, for fear that a ghost would suddenly jump out.

"Since you are so afraid! Are you still following me?"

Zhou Huimin is a person who is so scared that he closes his eyes.

She held He Jin tightly with her hands, opened her eyes from time to time, and then closed them again from time to time.

A look of wanting to see but not daring to look.

"You have seen it, of course you are not afraid!"

Zhou Huimin pouted and said.

"Haha!" He Jin smiled upon hearing this.

boom!
"what……"

At this moment, the character played by Wu Zhixiong in the movie threw a wine bottle and hit a passerby on the head.

The suddenness of this scene caused Zhou Huimin to let out an exclamation.

"Haha!" He Jin stretched out his arms to hug her, and said with a smile, "You better close your eyes and stop looking, or you will be even more afraid later!"

As a boss and investor, He Jin naturally had to watch the movie before it was released.

Therefore, although he is not completely familiar with the plot of the movie, he still knows it.

The title of "Yin Yang Road II" is "Always by Your Side".

Chen Zai (played by Louis Koo), Zi Shao (played by Lei Yuyang) and Bo Zai (played by Jordan Chan) are popular hosts of supernatural programs on radio stations.

The boss (played by Gu Dezhao) did everything possible to increase the ratings, and did not tell the three that someone died suddenly because of the show.

Let the three of them continue to do shows late at night.

One day, when the three of them were doing a show at night, they received a call from a girl named Anita (played by Li Huimin), telling them about the pain of losing her boyfriend.

Then the impatient Bozai made Anita jump off the building when she couldn't think about it, but Anita really jumped off the building.

Then, Anita began to entangle the three of them.

The whole film, shot by Chen Jinhui, is full of horror.

Although the plot is a bit out of touch, overall, this film is definitely a good horror movie.

"This Chen Jinhui, he doesn't play cards according to common sense! Damn, what a collection of short stories you agreed to! It's actually changed to a full-length novel! Grandma, it's hard to be a movie made of short stories..."

After about fifty minutes passed, everyone was a little surprised.

Because the first "Yin Yang Road" is a movie of several short stories, and the protagonists are different.

So everyone thought it was the same for the second part.

But I didn't expect that although this second part can be said to be a collection of short stories, in terms of coherence, it is not like a movie that is a collection of short stories.

Therefore, many people who understand movies began to make unexpected surprises.

"Why don't we go back first! It's okay for you to hide in my arms all the time."

Glancing at Zhou Huimin who was scared by the movie and hiding in his arms, He Jin said.

"Okay, okay!"

Zhou Huimin nodded hurriedly.

Hearing this, He Jin greeted Chen Jinhui and the others, and left the theater with Zhou Huimin.

When leaving, He Jin looked at the audience behind him.

Although it was obvious that many people were a little scared, very few people left the stage.

Most people are still watching movies intently.

Seeing this scene, He Jin nodded.

Judging from the current situation, the box office of this movie should not drop too much, and it may not necessarily increase a little.
