Reborn Hong Kong's Hidden Behind the Scenes

Chapter 64 Reminder
The movie "Best Son-in-law", after the press conference of Tengyue Cinemas and Golden Harvest Cinemas, was well known to the citizens of Xiangjiang.The premiere reached an astonishing box office of 73 Hong Kong dollars.

Just when everyone was expecting the movie to explode, something shocking happened.On the second day, the single-day box office was 81 Hong Kong dollars.On the third day, 53 Hong Kong dollars.On the fourth day, 45 Hong Kong dollars.On the fifth day, 42 Hong Kong dollars.On the sixth day, 39 Hong Kong dollars.On the seventh day, 36 Hong Kong dollars.

The box office has been falling, and it can't be stopped.

Although the first week's box office was 369 million Hong Kong dollars, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the film will be sold out before the cumulative box office reaches 500 million Hong Kong dollars.This is also a new rule set by Tengyue Cinemas. Every movie released will be screened for at least 25 days under the condition that the attendance rate is guaranteed to exceed [-]%.

Su Cheng actually had a premonition about this movie that "failed" in the eyes of others.And his purpose is to train newcomers' acting skills.It is to get rid of Zhou Xingchi's "entanglement" and recognize his "ignorance".

Fortunately, the film "Pretty Girl" that was uploaded at the same time performed well, and even under the unfavorable circumstances of Shaw's withdrawal, it also accumulated a good score of 986 million Hong Kong dollars.

On the 12th floor of Tengyue Entertainment Company, in Su Cheng's office.

Just after discussing with Leung Shu-yi about the promotion of the movie "Happy Ghost 2", Zhou Xingchi knocked on the door accompanied by Leung Chiu-wai with a dejected look on his face.

"Boss, I'm sorry!" Zhou Xingchi stood there, and it took a long time for him to say this.

Tony Leung, who was standing beside him, was even more silent.

Seeing these two people, Su Cheng has one head and two big heads.However, what should be comforted is still to be comforted.Slowly said: "The box office of the movie has nothing to do with you. I think you also know that the movies produced by our company will be shown in the screening room, and will only be promoted and released with my consent."

After a pause, he continued: "Furthermore, although the box office of the film you made this time is not high, it has also made money for the company. This is considered a success. In addition, the films produced by our company usually contain reputation This time, you young actors are the leading roles. It is already very good to have this box office. Many of the films that Director Sammo Hung has shot before are of this level. Knowing the gap with others, you must Learn to summarize. Don't be overly conceited."

Speaking of this, Su Cheng said to Zhou Xingchi: "Ah Xing, you are a fan of Bruce Lee, you should know that his Jeet Kune Do was created by combining a lot of martial arts. Without enough accumulation, no matter how good the talent is, it is impossible It won't help. Think about it!"

After hearing these words, Zhou Xingchi was very emotional about this matter, and said solemnly: "Thank you, boss!"

When they left, Su Cheng shook his head slightly.In fact, most of what he just said was exaggerated.It doesn't hurt that a newcomer is the protagonist and the box office is low.For the same film, if Zhong Chuhong was the heroine and Leung Ka Fai was the actor, it would easily break the box office of 500 million Hong Kong dollars.why?Just focus and commit.

Tony Leung can still be better, Stephen Chow's acting skills and Wang Zuxian's acting skills are unwatchable at this time.Nothing but good looks.

Too many exaggerated actions, who likes it?Even if it's a comedy, don't do this!It makes people feel uncomfortable. It's just wishful thinking for such a film to want a high box office!
When watching the film, Su Chengcheng discovered it.It's just that the production crew has already finished filming, so it can't be said to let the reshoots directly!Will keep showing it!
……

Sammo Hung's "Five Lucky Stars" was shot very well, exceeding Su Cheng's previous expectations.It seems that he has a lot of feelings for this "new type" of films.

As for "The Prodigal Boy" starring Yuen Biao, it is similar to the films in the system rewards.

In a good mood, the group of them came to the meeting room. Su Cheng said to Sammo Hung: "Brother Sanmao, if I want you to cooperate with Jackie Chan once, what do you think?"

"Of course it's good! We are all senior brothers!" These words are a bit insincere!

Smiling, Su Cheng explained: "Because of the cooperation with Golden Harvest Cinemas, I promised to write a script for Jackie Chan. There is a character suitable for Yuen Biao in it, and I hope he can participate in it."

After a pause, he continued: "In addition, there is another script invested by our company, and Jackie Chan is invited to participate in it. Of course, this play will be handed over to Brother Sanmao to direct it. The reason why Jackie Chan is invited is all Because he is reckless in acting, and there are many dangerous and classic shots that ordinary people really can't learn."

These words made Hong Jinbao silent.

Su Cheng smiled again and said: "Of course, before that, both you and Yuen Biao have new movies to shoot. Of these two movies, one will start shooting in September at the earliest. The other one may come soon." During the Chinese New Year."

In addition, on the side of Tengyue Entertainment Company, there are at least 5 plays waiting for Sammo Hung's people to take over.

Sammo Hung said: "Don't worry, boss! I will cooperate well!"

"That's fine!" After finishing speaking, he took out the script brought by the secretary, Su Chengyan said: "This is a new script for you, one is "Pioneer of Law Enforcement", with Yuen Biao as the leading role. The other is "Owl and Xiao Fei" Elephant, Brother Sanmao, you and Wu Mengda are the leading roles. In addition, there is a script of "The Rich and Noble Train", which is a big production. Wait until you are free to start filming. After these filmings, it is almost time for us to enter Hollywood. "

Hearing the last sentence, Sammo Hung's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Okay, boss!"

No one else sitting next to him spoke.Seeing this, Su Cheng was also very helpless.Even though everyone has joined Tengyue Entertainment, Sammo Hung will still be the backbone.

Just when he was about to leave, Su Cheng said abruptly: "Brother Sanmao, if you have time, you can also learn Hollywood sports shooting techniques. Maybe it will be used in the first film prepared by our company. When the time comes I will definitely let you and Wang Jing go out. For the others, I am really not at ease."

After all, only Sammo Hung and the others in the company are veteran directors, and the others are "new directors" who have made one or two films.

"Understood!" After saying that, he turned around, and Sammo Hung and the others left.

Looking at his back, Su Cheng fell into deep thought for a moment.

……

After the script of "Project A" was written, Su Chengcheng contacted Zou Wenhuai.

It's still the tea restaurant from last time.

After Zou Wenhuai finished reading, Su Chengyan said, "How is it? Can you catch Mr. Zou's eyes?"

Without words, Zou Wenhuai gave a thumbs up.

For this script, Su Cheng also included a storyboard.Even if Zou Wenhuai is not the director, he can clearly think of the finished film.Immediately, admiration was involuntary.

No wonder Tengyue Entertainment has risen so fast in such a short period of time?What a great screenwriter!
"Mr. Su's conditions?" Zou Wenhuai asked.

"Not much!" Stretching out two fingers, Su Cheng said lightly: "First, our Tengyue Entertainment Company needs to invest 2%, and we need cash buyouts in terms of distribution. You can just give us an evaluation price. In addition, the North American side It’s released, our company wants it. Second, we need Yuen Biao to play a role in it.”

The reason for letting Yuen Biao pass.First of all, he and Jackie Chan are senior brothers, and the inside story of many production crews can be known. Naturally, Sammo Hung and him can also know.Furthermore, he wants to improve Yuen Biao's reputation as soon as possible in the shortest possible time, paving the way for going to Hollywood in the future.
