Reborn Hong Kong's Hidden Behind the Scenes

Chapter 77 Winning
Since the two films "Hit the Wrong Car" and "The Story of Hu Yue" entered the main competition unit of the Venice International Film Festival, Su Chengcheng asked Liang Shuyi to send people to keep an eye on them.

A few days later, a shocking news came that both films were shortlisted for the Golden Lion Award.

Among them, the actor Sun Yue who played the protagonist Dumb Uncle in "Hitch the Wrong Car" was shortlisted as the leading actor.What is even more miraculous is that Ye Qianwen, who has not participated in many dramas, was shortlisted for the best actress for the role of A Mei.

This is the first time that the same drama has been shortlisted for the Best Actor and Actress Award.

On the day of the awards ceremony, the first news that came back was that "The Story of Hu Yue" won the Special Jury Award.Soon afterwards, Ye Qianwen, who played A Mei in "Hitch the Wrong Car", won the Emerging Actor Award.Sun Yue won the Best Actor Award for his role as the Dumb Uncle, which is the Volpi Cup honored by the Best Actor.As for the actress, it is a bye.

The highest honor of the Golden Lion Award for Best Picture was not given to the promising "Atlantic City", but to "Hitchhiking".

In an instant, not only Lido Island was a sensation, but after the news came back, Bay Island and Xiangjiang mainland were completely insane.After all, this is currently a rare example at the Venice International Film Festival.It is also a film produced by Xiangjiang Film Company, with the participation of Bay Island actors.

Just after the awards ceremony, Su Chengcheng received a call from Xiang Huaqiang: "Mr. Su, congratulations!"

"Mr. Xiang, congratulations!"

After finishing speaking, Su Cheng said solemnly: "I also hope that Mr. Xiang can take advantage of this opportunity to arrange the screening earlier."

"Don't worry! There will be a show on Wandao tomorrow. As for Xiangjiang, naturally I have to ask Mr. Su's Tengyue Cinemas for help."

"no problem!"

After hanging up the phone, Su Cheng told Zou Wenhuai by the way.Even if this is a literary film, it can carry the honor of the Golden Lion Award, and the box office will definitely not be too bad.It must be much better than the data given by the system information.

Sure enough, when Tengyue TV was promoting the movie "Hitchhiking", all major newspapers were advocating the show.Firstly, the producer of this film is Xiang Huaqiang's company.Secondly, the screenwriter is Su Cheng, the boss of Tengyue Entertainment.The bosses of the newspaper all give a slice of thin noodles.

In an instant, the popularity of this literary film even surpassed that of many "commercial comedies" being promoted.The power can be seen.

On September 9, the premiere box office of "Hitch the Wrong Car" came out, 2 Hong Kong dollars.Much more than Su Cheng thought.

The next day, 85 Hong Kong dollars.On the third day, 73 Hong Kong dollars.On the fourth day, 69 Hong Kong dollars.In the next few days, the box office has been declining, but after a week, the total box office has accumulated to 472 million Hong Kong dollars.When the film is released, there will still be a box office of 700 or 800 million Hong Kong dollars.

At the same time, Bay Island was even more terrifying. In a week, the box office exceeded NT$1300 million. (More than 400 million Hong Kong dollars).

I'm afraid it will instantly break the box office of "Modern Times" and "Junior Brother" at the beginning of the year.

Seeing this scene, Su Cheng was also slightly relieved.At least, the "commitment" to Xiang Huaqiang has been fulfilled.Even if the film's release is delayed for more than a month, the profits it can bring are considerable.To say the least, the net drop will not be less than 2000 million Hong Kong dollars.Who told Xiang Huaqiang to sell the distribution of the film "Hitchhiking" to those European distributors when he was in Venice!That sum alone brought in almost $300 million.

……

After the upsurge of "Hitching the Wrong Car" passed, Su Cheng arranged for "The Story of Hu Yue" to be released.

At this time, "Shuanglong Going to Sea" and "Royal Senior Sister" were also drawn.

Although "Shuanglong Going to Sea" relied on Wu Mengda's fame, it had Zhou Xingchi's hip pull, and the final box office only stayed at 1523 million Hong Kong dollars.Instead, "Royal Senior Sister" has Hui Yinghong, a "chivalrous girl", with a box office of 1286 million Hong Kong dollars.This is because it is a "big heroine" movie, otherwise, the box office would be even higher.

It was also at this time that Liu Guanwei's "The Brave Double Cannon" and Guan Jinpeng's "The Man Who Doesn't Take Off His Socks" were completed.

In Hollywood, at this moment, Wang Jing has officially formed the crew of "Back to the Future".Of course, the director Robert that Su Cheng asked to find in advance also joined in.

Taking advantage of the rectification stage of the new theater chain, Shi Nansheng began to recruit Hollywood "new directors" and "new artists" with Su Cheng's vision and standards.

Different from here in Xiangjiang, all famous artists and directors in Hollywood will join the trade union, even if they are "special actors", there will be notes.

This is also the case, allowing Shi Nansheng to search for a lot of artist information.Among them is the famous Tom Hanks who only debuted last year.Jim Carrey, who is a little famous, but has not yet played a role in a big crew.Phoebe Cates was born in a film and television family, her mother is Chinese, and she is also a black-haired Asian.Sharon Stone just debuted.Isabel Adjani, who has both acting skills and beauty.Sophie Marceau, who is full of personality and advocates women's rights.

As for whether there are any missing fish in the information, Su Chengcheng is not sure.After all, he has seen quite a few Hollywood movies, but most of the names he knows are those who are still active in the film industry in the new century, or are famous entertainers.Others have to be tested by the system.However, their company is not well-known at the moment, and it is run by "people from other countries". It is temporarily impossible to recruit veteran artists or directors.

Maybe it's okay if we cooperate.Just like the current director Robert.

……

After Tengyue TV handed it over to Le Yiling, the filming of "The Grace of the Earth" directed by Xu Xiaoming officially started shooting.At the same time, director Xiao Sheng also straightened out the script of "Looking for the Qin Dynasty" and began to form a crew.However, what surprised Su Cheng was that the actor he chose to play the protagonist Xiang Shaolong would be Tony Leung.

In addition, Wu Tingfang, the heroine, was cast by Hui Yinghong.Qin Qing found Wang Zuxian to play the role.And Zhao Pan (Ying Zheng) chose Jacky Cheung who is still practicing the song.

Such a combination, I really don't know what the finished film will be like?

However, the novel "Looking for Qin Ji" has many fans, so Su Cheng is not worried about the ratings.

On the contrary, at Tengyue Entertainment, Stephen Chow, who received 8 Hong Kong dollars in dividends because of the box office hit of the movie "Double Dragon", became arrogant and complacent.I don't study acting well anymore, and I don't want to participate in TV dramas.Yixin is quite a movie hero.And the reason is simple, you can make a lot of money.

But with his current immature acting skills, making him the heroine of the two dramas is considered a bonus from the company, and he still needs it?Not only did Su Cheng have a headache, even Chen Shufen, who is currently hosting the artist department, wanted to curse.
