Reverse Rebirth 1990

Chapter 221 227 [Entering the film industry]

Seeing that his son seemed to be enlightened, Fu Yunheng was even more happy and said: "The reason why Liu Bang was able to defeat Xiang Yu in the past and achieve the world's hegemony is that his writing is not as good as Zhang Liang and Xiao He, and his martial arts is not as good as Han Xin's Fan Kui. His only advantage is that he knows how to use people. So Jiajun, you What we need to do in the future is to grasp the present and use Song Zhichao's ability to inherit the Fu family's business."

"You mean... let me inherit the business of the Fu family?" Fu Jiajun was startled.For a long time, Fu Yunheng was hesitant about the right of inheritance, but he said such words in front of him, which surprised Fu Jiajun.

Seeing his son's dumbfounded look, Fu Yunheng smiled and said: "There's nothing surprising. After all, you are the only male in our Fu family. Although your elder sister is very capable, she is a married person after all, unless... "Fu Yunheng shook his head, discarding the bold idea in his heart. "In short, from now on, you have to clean up your mind, stop idleness, and do more serious things..."

Seeing his father say this, Fu Jiajun was excited and excited, and then he remembered what Song Zhichao told him about setting up a film company today.

If it was in the past, Fu Jiajun would not have dared to bring it up at this time. You must know that Fu Yunheng has always opposed him fooling around in the entertainment industry, not to mention running a film company now.

"Ahem, that father... Actually, there is something I want to discuss with you." Fu Jiajun said boldly.

Fu Yunheng was in a good mood, so he smiled and said, "You can tell me anything, I'm not a tiger, so there's nothing to be afraid of."

When Fu Jiajun saw his father say that, he giggled, "That's right, I want to start a film company."

"What?" Fu Yunheng's expression changed immediately.

Fu Jiajun was taken aback, he didn't expect his father to change his face so quickly, he looked terrible.

"Ahem, I didn't say this, it was Song Zhichao who said that the film situation is very good now, and if you have money, you don't make money, and you don't make money. He also said that now we are planning to shoot "The God of Cookery", which is a very good way to enter the film industry." Opportunity, what did you say that the right to speak of public opinion will be reflected in the movie in the future... The reason why American culture can influence the world is because Hollywood movies promote them..."

Fu Jiajun was originally very eloquent, but under his father's "excessive power", he was always unable to show any points, often he was reprimanded and stammered, or he babbled, and he couldn't even speak smoothly, but Today, he performed supernormally, directly retelling what Song Zhichao had said to him, adding fuel and vinegar during the period, exaggerating some wonderful things, and speaking more provocatively.

Fu Yunheng looked at his son who was talking eloquently, becoming more energetic and fluent as he spoke, and listened patiently for the first time.

I don't know how long the time has passed. Suddenly, a bird popped out of the clock and cooed a few times. Looking at the time again, it was already eleven o'clock.

The father and son talked for an hour without paying attention.

During the period, Sister Juan, a maid with a special status, served supper for the father and son --- several pastries and soup.

Seeing this, Fu Yunheng felt a little sorry for Sister Juan's age, so he said to Sister Juan: "Young Master and I still have something to discuss, you should go and rest first."

Sister Juan insisted not to go.

Her mission and job is to take care of the master, she has been conscientious and meticulous all her life, and has never made a mistake. For her, her existence is for Fu Yunheng.

Seeing that she was so stubborn, Fu Yunheng stopped talking and continued to discuss with Fu Jiajun.

Fu Jiajun: "So, Dad, Ah Chao said that as long as we invest in a film company now, we will earn more in the future. While making money, we can also advertise our Fu's enterprise, killing two birds with one stone. How about it? Is it powerful?"

Fu Yunheng smiled.

Fu Jiajun was a little hairy from laughing, and said to himself, did I say something wrong again?
"Then Jiajun, in your opinion, what is the most important thing about making a movie?"

"Ah, you mean...of course it is a star, and only with a star can there be appeal!"

"So how many celebrities are there in Hong Kong now?" Fu Yunheng continued to ask.

"There are many celebrities in Hong Kong, Jackie Chan, Chow Yun-fat, Stephen Chow, Andy Lau, Brigitte Lin, Maggie Cheung..." Fu Jiajun said most of the male and female celebrities in Hong Kong.

"So how many of them belong to our company?"

"This..." Fu Jiajun was stunned, yes, his company has just been established, and he doesn't even have a pillar, how can he make a living?

"So, it's not that easy to start a movie company. If you don't have the support of a star, how can you beat them?" Fu Yunheng said earnestly.

Fu Jiajun was stunned: "This..."

He really didn't think about it.

You know, the Hong Kong film and television industry in this era is super dark. Basically, big-name stars who can make money are signed by some big companies, such as Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao signed with Golden Harvest, Jet Li, Zhou Xingchi, Andy Lau signed with Yongsheng, Leslie Cheung, Xu Guanjie signed the contract with Golden Princess... It can be said that all well-known actors have their own "famous flowers" and signed contracts with powerful film companies.For those newly established film companies, there are simply no competing stars to join.

Seeing that he stopped his son with a single sentence, Fu Yunheng continued: "So it's okay to cast a movie, but to set up a movie company, you still have to think carefully."

When Fu Jiajun heard this, he shut up.

Just when Fu Yunheng thought he was about to convince him, Fu Jiajun suddenly said: "But Ah Chao said something..."

"What are you talking about?" Fu Yunheng listened attentively.

"He said that the chaos in Hong Kong's entertainment industry is only temporary. As long as there are good scripts and good actors, even if newcomers are cast, they can still get a good box office."

"He also said that today is the last few years of the golden decade of Hong Kong movies. If you don't seize the opportunity, you will miss the best era. He also asked me if I like Hong Kong movies, and I said yes; Ask me how I would feel if one day Hong Kong movies disappeared, and I said I would be very sad. Then he said, instead of being sad in the future, why not work hard now? Even if Hong Kong movies can’t be saved, Hong Kong movies can leave the last The splendor, the brightest scene, is also worth it."

Fu Jiajun doesn't know why, the more he talks, the more emotional he becomes, as if what Song Zhichao predicted has come true, and Hong Kong movies are really gradually dying out.

But how is this possible?Hong Kong movies are now in full swing, known as the Hollywood of Asia.

Fu Yunheng fell into deep thought.

As a boss who has been in the business world for decades, he knows very well that there is a saying that no flower can be popular for a hundred days, and no matter how powerful a Hong Kong movie is, there will always be such a bleak day.

Thinking of this, Fu Yunheng suddenly said: "If you want, I promise you to start a film company, but you must agree to two conditions."

Fu Jiajun's eyes couldn't help but brighten up, "What conditions?"

"It's very simple. First, you are not young anymore. I want to see you start a family and start a business earlier. That girl named Lin Jiaqi is pretty good, and she is your brother-in-law's biological sister. If she becomes married with you, then she will be a relative." On top of that, if you agree to try to be with her, I will be very happy."

"This... I can try my best, but it seems that she doesn't like me very much. Sometimes she doesn't even look at me when we meet."

"Girls have to be coaxed, you just need to put more effort into it." Fu Yunheng said in the tone of someone who came here, "Your mother was also coaxed by my sweet words back then, and after coaxing her, she went directly to the hotel, otherwise she would have Not the three of you."

Fu Jiajun was speechless, his father turned out to be such a rascal.

"What about the second one? What's your second condition?" Fu Jiajun asked.

Without even thinking about it, Fu Yunheng said, "The second condition is that Mr. Fu contributes the money, and Song Zhichao works hard. You and he are half of the film company!"

"What?" Fu Jiajun was stunned.In his opinion, isn't this a big loss? Why did the Fu family give up half of the money to set up a film company?

Seeing the surprised expression on his son's face, Fu Yunheng smiled and said, "Actually, if I give him half, I'm afraid it won't be enough."

Fu Jiajun: "..."

"You know, the success of a company does not depend on how much money is invested, but on who is leading the company." Fu Yunheng said slowly, "If you are the main investment to start this company, I will definitely not allow it. , but with Song Zhichao, everything is possible."

Fu Jiajun was jealous, "Abba, do you trust him that much?"

"It's not trust, it's vision." Fu Yunheng said, "Looking at people and doing business. Don't be suspicious of people, and don't be suspicious of people."

Fu Jiajun: "I also trust Ah Chao very much, but if you speak so well of him, I'm a little jealous."

"Hehe, silly boy, I'm helping you. If you want to keep someone like Song Zhichao, you have to work hard. In my opinion, he doesn't care about ordinary benefits, even if they are distributed to him. Half of the company, I'm afraid he won't want to!"

Fu Jiajun said: "Don't worry, Dad! I have no ordinary relationship with Ah Chao. As long as I tell this matter, he will definitely agree!"

"That's the best!" Fu Yunheng smiled, "In this case, I will allocate 5000 million yuan to you—by the way, what's the name of the film company?"

"Phantom World!"

"Phantom World?" Fu Yunheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said: "It's very domineering, it seems that Hong Kong movies are going to start a dragon-tiger fight again!"
