Reverse Rebirth 1990

Chapter 560 572 [Movie Empire]

At the airport, at the pick-up gate——
Crowds are crowded, all besieged around.

The black crowd stared expectantly at Song Zhichao standing in the middle, waiting for his next big revelation.

Song Zhichao smiled, and said loudly: "Perhaps everyone thinks that I am exaggerating, but I say it is a future plan. Hong Kong must become stronger, and Hong Kong films must be unified! A unified Hong Kong film company, a monopoly The film company will become an unbreakable fortress. I want to build Hong Kong film into an Asian film industry empire!"

"Yes. You heard it right. It is an industrialized film empire—Hollywood is following this path. Therefore, the current Hollywood films can still turn the giant wheel and crush all the film markets in the world."

"The United States relies on Hollywood movies to export, export their capitalist culture, and export their American will. Americans save the world, and the United States saves the universe. Why can't we?"

"What I want to do is to gather all the film resources in Hong Kong, actors, venues, directors, screenwriters, editors, lighting engineers, and even a small scene record - all gathered to construct a powerful film machine, Driven by me, it will become a castle that crushes Asian movies!"

Song Zhichao's words made everyone around him excited.

You know, Hong Kong people have always been proud of Hong Kong movies, and they also believe that Hong Kong movies are the most powerful soft power of Hong Kong, and they are the third industry recognized by the world. But, are Hong Kong movies really industrialized?No, to be precise, most Hong Kong films are still workshop-style and family-style, and they are still far from industrialization.

For example, "Baohe Film Company" is a studio-style film company created by Sammo Hung after he became famous.Sammo Hung and "Golden Harvest" have a very good relationship. In the past, Golden Harvest also praised Sammo Hung for making many popular movies.

However, with Jackie Chan's rise to power in Golden Harvest, Sammo Hung's position was affected.Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan are senior brothers. It is unreasonable for the two to fight in the same nest, and it is even worse to be reported by the media. Therefore, with the support of Golden Harvest, Sammo Hung left Golden Harvest to start a new business, established Baohe Film Company, and became an outsourcing company of Golden Harvest.

If Golden Harvest has some scripts that cannot be filmed in time, they will be thrown to Sammo Hung. Sammo Hung will use Golden Harvest’s resources, as well as his own, to film the film and then show it in Golden Harvest’s theaters. In the end, everyone will share the money.

In addition to the studio-style film company like Sammo Hung, there are Wang Jing's "Wong Jing Studio", and the "Zhengdong Film Company" established by Jet Li himself, etc. Basically, some big stars rely on external big film companies , A small company established by oneself, that is, a workshop-style operation, will not succeed.

In addition to this unpopular studio-style film company, the most eye-catching thing in Hong Kong is the family-owned film company, the most famous of which is "Yongsheng Films", which is almost controlled by the Xiang brothers inside and outside, and outsiders can't get in. hand.

In fact, the old Shaw Brothers Film Company is the closest to the industrial production model in Hong Kong. After defeating several of its old rivals Cathay Pacific and MP & GI Film Company, it basically established Shaw Brothers Film City and established a huge movie theater chain. , has its own film production department, director department, screenwriter department, actor training courses, and even a film production factory... Unfortunately, Shaw Brothers finally gave up the film market during the civil war with Golden Harvest—to be precise, Mr. Shao believed that TV would Instead of movies, it shifted its position, began to enter the TV industry, and established TVB, which made Shaw Brothers movies, which were about to be industrialized, finally become empty shells.

Looking at the Hong Kong film scene in front of you, you can use one sentence to describe it-a group of demons dancing wildly, a mess.

Song Zhichao is someone who has experienced it, and he sees everything in his eyes. For him, he doesn't want to be a savior, nor does he want to save the Hong Kong film industry. He just wants to make money!

Hong Kong movies are very profitable. Everyone knows this truth, but what everyone doesn’t know is that soon, Hong Kong people will kill this golden rooster that is very profitable.

Song Zhichao’s focus is on the mainland film market in the future. If Hong Kong films can maintain their standards and learn from Hollywood—this is one of the main reasons why he bought Columbia, bringing Hollywood’s industrial technology to Hong Kong, then Hong Kong films will not decline. , After the reunification, it will be able to unite with the mainland market and become the hegemon of Asia, and even the hegemon of the world.

This is no joke.

Song Zhichao has calculated that in the future, the mainland film market alone will have a box office of 600 billion yuan a year, and it will soon surpass North America. It can be seen that the largest box office of future movies will be in Asia, in the mainland!
Imagine a Hong Kong film market that has not declined, combined with the huge domestic demand in the Mainland, and then learning the industrial technology of Hollywood and Columbia, then the future-what a terrifying existence it will be.

Seeing that everyone's blood had been boiled up by him, Song Zhichao glanced at the Police Commissioner Grant next to him again.

Grant had long been terrified by Song Zhichao's inexplicable eyes, and didn't understand what he was going to do.

But what Song Zhichao is going to do, he can't stop it at this moment, or he can't stop it, who will let his handle be in the hands of the other party.

"Wow, it would be great if all the Hong Kong film companies merged into one big company!"

"That's right, Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, Yongsheng, and other companies. These big companies are really integrated. I'm afraid even the giants in Hollywood will tremble with fear."

"But it's not possible. The bosses of these film companies are all bosses, and none of them are idle people. Song Zhichao's desire to annex it seems like a dream."

"Yeah, it's too difficult!"

"Unless a miracle happens!"

Everyone was chattering and discussing.

Facing the boiling crowd, Song Zhichao stretched out his hand and pressed down slightly, signaling for everyone to be quiet, and then said: "I know, I know what you are thinking--but I have already made a decision, so the Hong Kong film market will soon Huge changes have taken place, but before the changes, I have to perform an operation on Hong Kong movies!"

"Operating on the Hong Kong film market? What do you mean?"

Everyone looked at Song Zhichao inexplicably, waiting for his explanation.

Next to Grant snorted, surgery?This Song really regards Hong Kong movies as his own children——wait until you really buy those film companies and dominate Hong Kong!
Although Grant is the director of the Hong Kong Police Force, he also knows that the Hong Kong film market is mixed with dragons and snakes, which is not easy. Even their police sometimes have no way to deal with those people, let alone Song Zhichao alone—one person deals with the entire Hong Kong For entertainment, Song Zhichao took himself too seriously.
