Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1006 Give them a lesson
Before that, in fact, Lin Daoqiu was not a person who liked to kill everything, he would leave others a way out.

However, Pan Disheng's previous actions had completely angered Lin Daoqiu.

In addition, Lin Daoqiu didn't want to waste any more time, he wanted to unify Xiangjiang's film market as soon as possible.

Therefore, Baocheng Cinemas became a roadblock in front of Lin Daoqiu.

Moreover, there are a large number of directors and stars that Lin Daoqiu dislikes but admires.

When this force comes together, it is really not to be underestimated.

In early March, Lin Daoqiu held a special meeting in the conference room of New Oriental Company.

The number of people who came to attend this meeting can be said to be the most over the years.

The four people from New Art City, the three of Wen Jun and the others, as well as the directors and stars recruited by Shaw Brothers, totaled more than 20 people.

For Lin Daoqiu's call this time, everyone smelled something unusual.

Recalling that Lin Daoqiu said before that Baocheng Theaters would be destroyed within two years, I am afraid that the theme of today's meeting should be related to that matter.

At this time, the door of the conference room was suddenly opened, and Fang Jinsheng walked in from the outside.

When they saw Fang Jinsheng, everyone thought that Lin Daoqiu had arrived and was about to stand up to greet him.

But only listen to what Fang Jinsheng said.

"Everyone is here, Mr. Lin is already waiting for everyone in the screening hall, please follow me."

Lin Daoqiu had actually arrived earlier, but instead of coming, he went to the screening room first.

Everyone at the scene didn't know why, but they got up quickly and walked towards the screening hall together.

New Oriental's projection hall has been renovated, and a batch of the latest movie playback equipment imported from Hollywood has been replaced.

Lin Daoqiu was sitting in the middle seat, talking with Dexerla in a low voice.

At this time, everyone in the conference room had already walked in from the outside.

"Everyone please sit down, I invite you to watch something today."

Lin Daoqiu didn't explain, but asked everyone to sit down first.

After everyone arrived, the lights slowly dimmed.

Although everyone knew that what Lin Daoqiu wanted them to watch should be a movie, but as for what kind of movie it was, no one could guess.

And Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui, who have been with him since Lin Daoqiu arrived in Xiangjiang, know much more than others.

As soon as they saw Dexerla appearing in the auditorium, they suddenly had a very shocking idea.

"Has the movie already been filmed?"

Wen Jun didn't speak, but turned to look at Zheng Danrui.

Shocked expressions appeared in the eyes of the two of them almost at the same time.

But the movie hasn't started yet, and they are not sure about it, so they can only calm down and wait.

When the screen gradually brightened, everyone's eyes were focused on it.

Neon, Tokyo Bay, a lone ship sailed on it, the night was very windy and rainy, and they had to get back to the pier before the typhoon came.

After talking for a while, everyone in the boat heard a terrifying voice almost at the same time.

Like the roar of dragons and tigers, or the cry of some kind of animal, in short, no one can tell what it is.

At this time, everyone in the cabin stood up at the same time, with terrified expressions on their faces.

At this time, the hull suddenly began to shake violently, and everyone in the cabin was frightened to death. Everyone hugged the things next to them tightly, trying to stabilize their bodies.

But after shaking for a while, the amplitude suddenly began to weaken.

"God, my wife and son are still waiting for me to come home, please forgive me."

At this time, those who were less timid were already crying.

But the strange thing is that after the roar just now, everything seems to have returned to calm.

But at this moment, the camera suddenly zoomed to the sea.

Because of the violent wind and rain, it is impossible to see the surroundings clearly at sea.

The captain and driver in the cockpit were about to speed up and leave this ghostly place, because they also heard that roar just now, and it was more clearly heard than the people in the cabin.

And at this moment, they suddenly raised their heads slowly, and then stared blankly ahead.

In the next second, a shocking wave suddenly hit, directly overturning the hull of the ship.

When the boat was overturned and then disappeared in the vast sea, everything was calm again, as if nothing had happened.

Everyone at the scene couldn't help opening their eyes wide after seeing this scene, because they had never seen such a realistic movie before.

It's not that they can't film such a plot, but that the things inside seem to be real, and people can't tell the difference at all.

"It really is Godzilla..."

Seeing this, Wen Jun can finally be sure that this film is "Godzilla", which Lin Daoqiu spent several years filming and spent more than 1 million US dollars on.

Originally, Wen Jun thought that there shouldn't be anything too remarkable about the filming of this movie.

After all, he has watched so many movies since he was a child, and he doesn't think there are any movies at this stage that can shock him.

But the appearance of "Godzilla" shocked Wen Jun to the point of being speechless.

And Wen Jun was not the only one who had such an idea at the scene.

In fact, "Godzilla" has not yet finished filming, but the production has reached more than [-]% of the progress.

The reason why Lin Daoqiu wants to show them this small part today is to let them know the future development trend of movies, which is moving in the direction of special effects movies.

"This movie is called "Godzilla". I have been filming it for several years and invested more than 1 million US dollars. It will be released globally this year."

Lin Daoqiu stepped onto the stage and started talking to the people present.

Everyone has not recovered from the previous shock, and now Lin Daoqiu told them an even more shocking news.

It's crazy to make a movie with more than 1 million US dollars.

You must know that Xiangjiang's total movie box office revenue for a year is not [-] million U.S. dollars.

In the previous life, the total box office revenue of Xiangjiang films in 1983 was only 2.83 million Hong Kong dollars.

Lin Daoqiu actually spent 10 billion Hong Kong dollars to make a movie, which really made them not know what to say.

If it was them, so much money would have been used to enjoy it long ago, how could it be used to make movies.

And even if it is going to be filmed, an investment of up to 2000 million is already very impressive, and a production cost of hundreds of millions is not even a thought, because no one dares to take such a big risk.

"The reason why I want you to watch these today is because I want you to know that the future trend of film development, special effects films will be the main force in the film market in the future, not only in Hollywood, but also in Southeast Asia.
