I haven't been a boss for many years

Chapter 80 On the painting, box office

"My conditions are very simple. The share ratio is the same as Golden Harvest, and the terms of cooperation are also the same as Golden Harvest. If you agree, print the contract and sign it immediately." Shao Yifu leaned slightly on the armrest of the sofa, holding a teacup and said straightforwardly.

After the two have cooperated once, a lot of twists and turns can be saved.

Zhang Guobin nodded slightly: "Is Shaw's artist library open to DreamWorks for free?"

"Free access?" Yifu Shao frowned: "Is Golden Harvest's artist library open to your company for free? Mr. Zhang, are you kidding me?"

"Golden Harvest has as many famous artists as Shaw Brothers. What's more, Golden Harvest is more important than the director and martial arts team. Famous stars have their own companies." Zhang Guobin pointed out.

"This is actually a kind of free opening."

"Do I still value the other stars of Golden Harvest, or do I still value the directors of the Shaw Brothers?" It's not that the directors of the Shaw Brothers are not good, but there are too few available.

In the final analysis, TVB is really a good place to continuously create stars. The TVB artist training class is full of talents. If you watch Golden Harvest, you will look at the director, and if you watch Shaw Brothers, you will look at the artists. The two film companies have their own priorities. Even if Shaw Brothers stops producing , TVB stars can spend another [-] years just by making TV series.

Shao Yifu was speechless.

Zhang Guobin continued: "And I chose "Province and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" to be screened in Shaw Brothers theaters, which continued the violent aesthetics of "The True Colors of Heroes". This is a guarantee for Shaw Brothers at the box office. Shaw is losing money."

"I will also try my best to release more suitable movies on Shaw Brothers."

As for the subject matter and genre of the suitable movie, and how much it earns,

Then the benevolent see benevolence, the wise see wisdom, and each takes what he needs.

At present, Hong Kong has not promulgated the "Film Censorship Regulations" Chapter 392 of the Hong Kong Island Law. It has not adopted a classification system for violent aesthetic films such as "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers", and has not restricted the audience. Therefore, film companies instinctively tend to be more explosive. Weird and gimmicky movie themes, such as crime, murder, fantasy, etc.

Shao Yifu really likes "Province and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" very much, especially the speeding scene in "Province and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers", which is both exciting and explosive, and it is an enhanced visual experience.

Film is, after all, a visual art.

Justin Shao sighed: "It is unrealistic to open up the artist library for free, but I can promise you that as long as the film you shoot is released on Shaw Brothers, Shaw Brothers will use artists for you for free. If the film you shoot is not drawn on Shaw Brothers, the commission A [-]% cut of the artist's remuneration, the money is said to be drawn from the artist, but in fact it is still drawn from you."

Yifu Shao showed shrewdness in his eyes: "Unless you don't want to cooperate with Shaw Brothers artists anymore."

"Haha, Mr. Shao was joking. Shaw's artists have outstanding professional skills and are famous. I'm making a movie in Xiangjiang, so why not use Shaw's artists?"

"However, I am very satisfied that Mr. Shao can make concessions in the contract. Thank you, Mr. Shao." Zhang Guobin stretched out his hand.

Shao Yifu clasped his hands together.

As soon as the two shook hands, they separated immediately, and the cooperation was reached.

"Chu Yuan, go and print out the contract." Yifu Shao said to a director of the Shaw Brothers who was watching the sample at the same time.

"Yes, Shao Sheng." Chu Yuan immediately left to prepare the contract. Half an hour later, Zhang Guobin and Shao Yifu signed the contract in the office. They shook hands and thanked each other. Shao Yifu sent Chu Yuan to send Zhang Guobin away. Chu Yuan personally asked Zhang Guobin for his contact information, and praised Mr. Zhang for making movies with personality, and works with personality are the most soulful and the easiest to sell.

This time, Da Bohao did not express any dissatisfaction with Shao Yifu after watching Zhang Guobin and Shao Yifu discuss business, because he vaguely felt that Brother Bin seemed to have made money?

Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest started the pumping mode when the suppression was ineffective, and the opening of the resource bank to Zhang Guobin was actually to hope that DreamWorks would produce more blockbuster movies, and the two theaters would draw more blood. As everyone knows, a movie giant About to be fed step by step.

end of June.

Christmas.

The Xiangjiang River is decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the streets are noisy and lively.

On this day, the shops on Tung Choi Street and Fa Yuen Street were full of people, and many sneakers, clothing, and bags were sold out of stock. On this day, Yau Ma Tei nightclubs, sauna rooms, bathrooms, and gambling stalls were full of VIPs. With an income of more than three million Hong Kong dollars, "Happy Ghost" was screened at Golden Harvest Cinemas on this day...

At the gate of the Mong Kok theater, at the ticket office, there is a long queue like a dragon, citizens with their families, couples in love, and classmates who are dating out of the street line up along the stairs, with scalpers on both sides of the stairs The bad boy of the ticket, the "Happy Ghost" series became popular as soon as it was painted. Whether it is the movie plot, actors, or the atmosphere of watching movies, it suits the appetite of Hong Kong citizens.The theater of laughing heartily is the environment for picking up girls next to horror movies. The inadvertent shoulder hugs and hand holding between laughter make everything seem unreasonable and acceptable.

The family carnival route of "Happy Ghost" was a great success, and after the movie ended, some funny NG scenes during filming were cut into a collection and put at the end of the film. The picture, the children looked at it happily, and the parents also looked at it happily.It is said that some idiots bought more than a dozen movie tickets repeatedly just to see the NG scene of Li Lizhen's one-piece swimsuit and waited until the movie was over before entering.

February 81th, 2, New Year's Eve.

"Provincial and Hong Kong Banner Soldiers" was drawn online in Shaw Cinemas with sufficient publicity.

"Banners of the Province and Hong Kong" relies on crime themes that reflect social hotspots, coupled with the popular speeding scenes, defeated many martial arts and comedies released in the same period in one fell swoop, and won 1400 million box office within a one-month schedule. Stepping over the box office threshold of tens of millions. "Happy Ghost" won a box office of [-] million in a period of more than one month, with a total box office of [-] million, accounting for one-third of Hongkong's total box office in the first year of the year.

In addition, since the release time of "The Banners of Hong Kong" and "Happy Ghost" is only a little over a month apart, there were a few short days in which the paintings were hung at the same time, which led to an obvious phenomenon at the box office of the theater. "The audience usually bought one or two, two or three tickets, but the citizens who bought "Happy Ghost" bought five or six, seven or eight tickets at a time. It can be seen that two good films with different themes are released, and the whole family Where is the advantage of comedy?

It is foreseeable that the box office of "Happy Ghost" is higher than that of "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers".

Zhang Guobin was not surprised at all.

The respective box office of the two movies has reached and exceeded Boss Zhang's expectations. Although the box office of the original film is the benchmark, after all, factors of the times and inflation must be considered...

Boss Zhang said he was very happy.

In the beginning of 81 years,
Xiangjiang Film Circle,

A heavyweight climbed to the top of the mountain,
Worth opening a bottle of Lafite.
