Reverse Rebirth 1990

Chapter 1369 1389 [Lame Hao II] Part [-]
Hong Kong, Bi Wenfeng Chambers——
Du Chunmei only found out later that Fu Qingying had brought her child to Song Zhichao for a "visit".

It was my younger sister Song Yuqing who called her.

According to Song Yuqing's words, ever since Fu Qingying took the child away from the Song family, father Song Haiming and mother Wang Jinfeng were very uncomfortable, and they didn't eat properly for several days.

Song Yuqing said that she couldn't comfort her, not to mention that she was still a "guilty man" working for Phantom Entertainment, so she called Du Chunmei and asked Du Chunmei to persuade and comfort the two elderly people.

Originally, Du Chunmei was in charge of many matters of the Song family, so Du Chunmei was nominally the "Chief Manager" of the Song family, but the law firm has been busy recently, so he didn't get distracted from managing the Song family's affairs.

However, in Du Chunmei's heart, the Song family's affairs were even more important than her own work, so after receiving Song Yuqing's call, Du Chunmei quickly finished the work at hand, and then asked the barrister Bi Wenfeng for leave, and then hurried Hurry back to Song's house.

It has to be said that Du Chunmei is definitely the most intimate person of Song Haiming and Wang Jinfeng.

Du Chunmei has always played the role of listener and problem solver in the Song family, and has won the trust of the two elders.

As soon as Du Chunmei came back, the old couple took her hand, hid in the room and said what they were holding back in their hearts.

Song Zhichao originally wanted to wait for Du Chunmei to come out to ask about his parents' situation, but Du Chunmei seemed to have had a deep conversation with his parents, so he didn't come out after waiting for a long time.

Song Zhichao's company was busy, and he couldn't wait at home all the time, so he asked Ruan Jun to prepare the car first, and then went back to the company to work.

……

Hong Kong, Song Group——
Although the current Song Group is not as large as when Song Zhichao left Hong Kong, it has become faster and more efficient.

For example, now, the Hong Kong version of Song Zhichao's big movie "Infernal Affairs" has been filmed, and Song Zhichao has also watched the edited sample tape. The next thing he will discuss with many company executives is the premiere of the film in Hong Kong.

It's fine if it's just a normal premiere, but the problem is that the premiere of "Infernal Affairs" this time involves a competition with Kang's Entertainment, as well as a competition for the Golden Princess Cinemas.

Judging from the current situation, the situation is not optimistic, because the big movie "Chinese Hero" produced by Kang Entertainment seems to be more attractive.

After all, the Hong Kong film market was prospered by martial arts movies back then. Although in recent years, because of the "Invincible in the East" and "Once Upon a Time" martial arts movie series, the concept of martial arts has been consumed too much, and the box office of martial arts movies has not been good, but this time Kang's remake of "Chinese Heroes" is adapted from a comic story and has many fans in Hong Kong.

In addition, Ekin Cheng and Nicholas Tse who starred in this drama are undoubtedly the most popular male stars in the Hong Kong film and television industry.

These two were also the two most popular stars in the late 90s in their previous lives, and Song Zhichao also knew that the movie they co-produced was also a big hit in their previous lives.

So Song Zhichao now encountered a very strange judgment: Can "Infernal Affairs" beat "Chinese Hero"? !

In principle, the reason why "Infernal Affairs" became popular in the previous life was related to the weakness of Hong Kong's overall film market after 2000, that is, after 2000, this film turned out to be a continuation of three Hong Kong films. Five-year lifespan.

In the previous life, because "Infernal Affairs" made the originally weak Hong Kong movies "prosper" again, Hong Kong filmmakers who had no jobs during that time were all scrambling to shoot movies with similar themes. For a while, "Black and White Forest", " Film series such as "Scarred City", "Fire Dragon Showdown", and "Dark War" have triggered the second spring of Hong Kong police and gangster movies and two-hero movies.

At that time, some Hong Kong filmmakers believed that Hong Kong films were revived with blood, and as film practitioners, it was: everyone has a job and everyone has a meal!

Not only that, "Infernal Affairs" has also become popular internationally from Hong Kong. Even Hollywood has bought the remake copyright of "Infernal Affairs" and remade it into the American version of "The Departed". Meng, a pair of popular fried chickens, played in the play, and won Hollywood's highest award, the Oscar, in one fell swoop.

From this, we can see how majestic the glory of "Infernal Affairs" is!

Now that Song Zhichao used it to compete with Kang Entertainment's "Chinese Heroes", he felt a little unconfident.

No way, even Song Zhichao's confidant "Huang Cailun" thought that "Infernal Affairs" had a [-]-[-] chance of winning "Chinese Hero".

"Huang Cailun" is the golden retriever "Huo Qilin" Song Zhichao met when he first came to Hong Kong.

Today, through self-study, Huang Cailun has not only completed his university studies, but also obtained an accounting qualification certificate from the University of Hong Kong and a doctoral certificate in economics and management. It can be said that he is a super inspirational figure from a gangster to an elite.

Of course, for Huang Cailun, these are all given to him by Song Zhichao, not Song Zhichao's encouragement, not Song Zhichao's support and trust in him. He, Huang Cailun, is still the same "Fire Qilin" who spends his days in a dawdle all day long. .

Because of this, Huang Cailun worked harder to repay Song Zhichao.

now--
Huang Cailun showed his own experience at the meeting, and he did not shy away from his experience of being a gangster. Instead, he told everyone that it was precisely because he was a gangster that he knew the influence of comics such as "Chinese Heroes" on Hong Kong people, especially young people in Hong Kong. How big is it.

According to Huang Cailun, at least seven or eight out of ten young people in Hong Kong have read the comic "Chinese Heroes".

This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the peripheral products of "Chinese Heroes" have always sold well, let alone comic T-shirts, comic figures, and comic posters.

"Hong Kong people's love for "Chinese Heroes" is like chasing after a girl, thinking about it day and night is not counted, and they are very willing to spend money!"

"Therefore, "Chinese Heroes" has such a loyal and huge fan base. Even if Kang Entertainment does not make any promotion in the early stage, those comic fans will buy tickets to support it!"

Huang Cailun gave a conclusion in front of Song Zhichao.

The others also nodded repeatedly, thinking that what Huang Cailun said was true.

Huang Cailun continued: "In contrast, the promotion of "Infernal Affairs" has always been about Liu Dehua and Tony Leung as the leading actors, and a script 'China, South Korea, and the United States'. Not to mention, even when interviewing survey data on the street, the number of people who know "Infernal Affairs" is far less than the number of people who know "Chinese Heroes". To sum up, if our Song Group cannot take action, then The "Infernal Affairs" we invested in Phantom Entertainment will lose to the Kang Corporation, and even --- lose everything!"

Song Zhichao never expected that Huang Cailun would come to such a shocking conclusion.

He couldn't help but start to reflect on himself, did he do something wrong?
From the very beginning, he was influenced by the great reputation of "Infernal Affairs" in his previous life, so that he made a wrong judgment, thinking that "Infernal Affairs" is an irresistible movie, and it is the best movie at the top of the pyramid. It's not even worth mentioning.

But looking back and taking a closer look——
After all, it is 1999, not the future. After 2000, martial arts films and action films are the most influential in the Hong Kong film market, rather than "Infernal Affairs", which is known as the "unconventional" new generation of police films!

Song Zhichao's golden finger of "foresight" made an interesting "joke" with Song Zhichao for the first time.

The content of the joke is --- you are ahead of the game!

Everything works best at the right time, in the right place, and in the right environment.

Stephen Chow's "Journey to the West" is a super classic today, but when it was released that year, the box office lost all its money. The reason is that it was too advanced, and people couldn't understand it or appreciate it.

What about now?
Will Song Zhichao's "Infernal Affairs" follow the old path of "A Chinese Journey to the West" and become a box office classic? !
For a while, Song Zhichao was sweating profusely.

After considering and understanding this point, Song Zhichao temporarily dismissed the meeting and asked everyone to go back to discuss how to do a good job of promoting "Infernal Affairs" before its release.

Everyone also understands that the matter is of great importance and a good decision must be made.

……

The crowd gradually dispersed——
Song Zhichao stopped Huang Cailun and asked him a few more questions.

Huang Cailun still insisted on his opinion, this time "Infernal Affairs" faced too strong opponents, it might be very difficult to win against Kang Entertainment.

Song Zhichao nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Jingle Bell!
Jingle Bell!
At this time, there happened to be a phone call, and Song Zhichao asked Huang Cailun to leave first.

Song Zhichao put one hand in his pocket, faced the floor-to-ceiling windows, and connected the phone.

Du Chunmei's voice came from the phone.

Du Chunmei seemed to be driving a car, and the sound of the engine could be faintly heard through the phone.

Before Song Zhichao could ask, Du Chunmei took the initiative to talk about the situation at home.

Fortunately, there is no serious problem. Both Song Haiming and Wang Jinfeng are in a much better mood.

Song Zhichao let out a sigh of relief after hearing this, and said, "This is a trouble for you. You are so busy with work now, and you still have to take care of me..."

Du Chunmei just laughed, "Brother, you are too out of touch. If you hadn't brought me to Hong Kong, I wouldn't be where I am today—speaking of which, I have to thank you!" Du Chunmei just listened to her " "Ah" screamed, followed by the sound of a sudden brake, and a bang!
Song Zhichao's heart suddenly tensed, and he hurriedly asked, "Chunmei, what happened?"

There was no answer on the phone.

Song Zhichao was in a hurry, and quickly greeted Ruan Jun and Ruan Ling to get the car ready.

Song Zhichao continued to make a phone call while walking outside, but the other side of the phone had already hung up, and no matter how he called, it was always a blind tone.

Song Zhichao knew that something must have happened!
