Reborn Hong Kong's Hidden Behind the Scenes

Chapter 79 Accident
After the popularity of "Hitch the Wrong Car" cooled down, the Tengyue Cinemas released "The Story of Hu Yue" directed by Xu Anhua.

Probably because both films won awards at the Venice International Film Festival, the box office on the premiere day was not bad, reaching 62 Hong Kong dollars.But then, the potential seemed to be exhausted, only 48 Hong Kong dollars.Then, less and less, in just 5 days, it fell to 28 Hong Kong dollars at the box office.

Even though Su Cheng was prepared, he was also very surprised.It turns out that even Fa Ge couldn't save a movie!

It was also at this time that the post-production of "The Man Who Doesn't Take Off His Socks" directed by Guan Jinpeng was completed, and "The Brave Double Cannon" had already begun to be screened and promoted on Tengyue TV.

……

Soon to October, Chow Yun-fat finally completed the filming of "Dragon and Tiger". After tidying up, he headed to Hollywood first.He needs to receive "secret training" from professionals there first.

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

Chen Shufen knocked on the door and came in and said, "Boss, Zhou Xingchi's side has temporarily stopped. However, recently, Wu Mengda's place seems to have taken over from other companies."

"Ok?"

Since Wu Mengda became popular and won the first Hong Kong Film Awards, not a few companies have come to him to film, but because of the company system, he has not made any mistakes.Why did you suddenly change gender at this time?

Looking at Chen Shufen, he asked, "What's going on?"

"I heard that it is a newly established company called 'Sanying Film Company', which offers a remuneration of 150 million Hong Kong dollars." Chen Shufen said cautiously: "As for other aspects, I don't know yet."

"Then what did Wu Mengda say?"

"He is currently filming on the set, and I haven't asked him about it yet."

Nodding his head, when Chen Shufen went out, Su Cheng called Liu Qing in directly and asked, "What's the matter with Wu Mengda filming outside?"

"I don't know!" As soon as the words were out of his mouth, he saw that Su Cheng's face was not right, Liu Qing immediately went to inquire, and after about 10 minutes, he walked in again and said in a low voice: "Master, it was established by the old man of the '14k' boss. The company threatened Wu Mengda about a week ago."

Hearing this, Su Cheng said in a deep voice, "I don't want this kind of thing to happen again in the future."

"Understood, young master!"

After knocking on the table, Su Cheng called Xiang Huaqiang, and after finishing talking, he said directly, "Mr. Su, I really can't help you with this matter."

Just when he was about to hang up the phone, another sentence came out: "Try Chen Huimin, he is also one of the big bosses."

Without much delay, Su Cheng asked Liu Qing to go to Chen Huimin and ask about the details of the matter by the way.

After Liu Qing left, he couldn't help but rubbed his head. It seemed that such things would be necessary in the future.Let Liang Shuyi hold an internal meeting and tell them well.If you have anything to do, tell the company directly.And, this time, it is mandatory to arrange at least 2 bodyguards for each person.in case.

……

New Art City.

In Mai Jia's office, Zeng Zhiwei, who had already returned from Bay Island, asked, "I can only be a screenwriter? What about the director?"

"Awei, you also know that although I have a lot of power here, Boss Lei still makes the final decision. I have to ask you about the director."

"Okay, I'll wait!"

After he left, Shi Tian walked in and said, "Are you really planning to let him stay?"

"Otherwise?" Mai Jia waved her hand and said worriedly: "You should also understand that although the box office of our recent films has been good, they have not yet reached Boss Lei's goal. If this continues, do you think the Golden Princess Academy Will there be strong support from the front line? One more person is also one more opportunity!"

"But wasn't he blocked by Tengyue Entertainment?" Shi Tian asked in surprise.

Mai Jia smiled and said: "You also said that it was banned by Tengyue Entertainment. As long as we don't go to Golden Harvest Cinemas and Tengyue Cinemas, what can Boss Su do? He can still manage Princess Jin?"

"In this case, why don't you let him be the director?" Shi Tian asked suspiciously.

Shaking his head, Mai Jia said: "The film we filmed has to be released in other regions! At present, Tengyue is the only one. If Ah Wei becomes the director, once the news spreads, there is no guarantee that it will be released." Let Mr. Su make trouble. At that time, our films in New Art City will not be sold, and we will rely on the local box office in Xiangjiang, and sooner or later we will have to close our doors."

Hearing this, Shi Tian fell silent.This is the so-called smaller the target, the less it will be noticed?

In fact, Maggie was also very helpless.He was sure of Zeng Zhiwei's ability.But it's just to appreciate the other party's screenwriting ability.As for acting and directing, he feels he is stronger.Tsui Hark is also very good.Not to mention Lin Lingdong who was entrusted with important tasks.

Most of the reason why he took the risk to keep him was to find him an errand to support himself.It can also be regarded as an "apology" for not helping before.

……

Walking out of New Art City, Zeng Zhiwei went directly to the hospital to see Jackie Chan who went in again.

"Ah Wei, you're here."

"Well, how are you? Are you all right?"

"Fortunately, I can go out in two days!" Speaking of this, Jackie Chan was very happy, and said with a smile: "This is also the last hospitalization, and there will be no dangerous actions in the remaining scenes."

Seeing Jackie Chan's cheerful appearance, Zeng Zhiwei frowned and said, "Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to make movies anymore?"

"What are you afraid of?" Jackie Chan didn't understand for a while.

Zeng Zhiwei sighed: "Like me, I have a disability."

Shaking his head, Jackie Chan said: "Do you think Bruce Lee was ever afraid? Those of us who are actors in fight scenes shouldn't worry about that. It's fine if nothing happens. If there is an accident, it's nothing more than fate. Besides, if we don't Desperate, which company dares to invest in our filming? Once I lose this job, what else can I do? Open a martial arts gym?"

These words made Zeng Zhiwei silent for a long time.

Gently patted him on the shoulder, Jackie Chan said: "If I was as rich as the ship king, I would definitely not work so hard. You haven't seen Boss Shao, Boss Zou, and even Boss Su are all busy with their jobs. ? Not a millionaire, who would dare to slack off and waste his life? As long as he can become brilliant, even if he follows Bruce Lee's footsteps, I will admit it."

"That's you too, I don't have that good life." Zeng Zhiwei said bitterly.

Hearing this, Jackie Chan was taken aback.Immediately he asked: "Is it not going well in New Art City?"

"Maijia just asked me to be a screenwriter."

Jackie Chan rolled his eyes and said, "Why don't I ask Mr. Zou, maybe you can join Golden Harvest."

This is not because of his sudden whim, but because the current situation of Jiahe is indeed not very satisfactory.If it weren't for the cooperation with Tengyue Cinemas, the company would have suffered serious losses.Not to mention the just released "Killer's Trenches", the box office is a mess.Not even the cost was recovered.

"This, can it be done?" Zeng Zhiwei asked in surprise.

"Let's try it first! Maybe it's okay?" When chatting with Yuen Biao recently, Jackie Chan also discovered that many people in the current Hong family class respect Su Cheng, the boss.Not to mention Yuen Biao, who has been touted as the protagonist of movies many times.

If he doesn't work hard, Yuen Biao's reputation may surpass him in the near future.And Zeng Zhiwei is talented, if Golden Harvest takes him under its banner, maybe it can help him?However, this matter has to be discussed with Zou Wenhuai.After all, Zeng Zhiwei was the first person to be "blocked" by Su Cheng!
