Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1036
At the beginning of July, the sequel of "Happy Ghost" "Happy Ghost Over Summer Vacation" has been filmed, and the post-production has also been completed.

The movie earned 500 million at the box office at the beginning of this year, which made many people look forward to the sequel.

But when they found out that the starring group of this drama had been replaced by four other girls, those diehard fans before were not happy.

"Mr. Huang, after the poster of "Happy Ghosts Over Summer Vacation" was posted, I received a lot of complaint calls every day. The audience was not satisfied with the change of the main character in this drama."

For this matter, Huang Baiming had already expected it.

After all, the success of "Happy Ghost" is largely related to those three girls.

Now that they are suddenly replaced, the audience who had a good impression of "Happy Ghost" before will naturally express their dissatisfaction in various ways.

In fact, the reason why Huang Baiming wanted to replace all the heroines in "Happy Ghost" was because their lives changed when the first part ended.

Lin Jingjing won the championship, Lin Xiaohua gave birth to a child and married Joseph.

But "Happy Ghosts Over Summer Vacation" is defined as a youth school comedy, so it's not suitable for them to act in the sequel.

That's why Huang Baiming swiped his pen and recruited four newcomers, intending to continue the glory of "Happy Ghost".

"Don't worry about them, it will be released soon. As long as the movie is good enough, the audience will definitely buy it."

For this, Huang Baiming has strong confidence, because this time the special effects technology of "Happy Ghost" has improved to a higher level than last year.

And the plot is not as thin as it was before "Happy Ghost", with more emotional lines felt by the male protagonist, and also has the youthful vitality of "Happy Girls Group".

How do you think "Happy Ghost Over Summer Vacation" is better than "Happy Ghost" in terms of plot special effects and casting.

The combination of these advantages makes Huang Baiming have strong confidence in this "Happy Ghost Over Summer Vacation".

The Xiangjiang Film Market in July was supposed to be the only show in "Happy Ghosts Over Summer Vacation".

But at this time, Baocheng Cinemas was not to be outdone, and released a movie called "The Brave Double Cannon".

This movie starring Wu Yaohan and Cen Jianxun is a comedy action movie.

In addition to the two of them, there are also many famous stars.

Such as Yuen Biao, Wu Ma, Ye Dexian, Chen Xinjian, De Wei, Tian Jun, Wen Bixia and so on.

This is a typical Hong Kong comedy movie, which combines gangsters, criminal investigation, comedy, action and other elements.

But because the names of the two protagonists are really weak, so when it comes to "Happy Ghosts Over Summer Vacation", everyone thinks that these two dramas should be back and forth.

But because "Happy Ghost" won a box office score of 500 million before, more people are more optimistic about "Happy Ghost Over Summer Vacation".

In the conference room of Baocheng Cinemas, Sammo Hung and others are making preparations before the release of "The Brave Double Cannon".

"The publicity is almost done, and there are a lot of advertisements on the bus, but the effect seems not very satisfactory."

The publicity manager told the truth, after all, the two leading actors of "The Brave Double Cannon" are not the kind of people who can afford the box office.

Cen Jianxun and Wu Yaohan can be regarded as golden supporting roles, but if they are leading roles, they have not had a precedent for big hits before, and they are all brilliant supporting roles.

I don't know why Sammo Hung thought of asking these two people to work together in "The Brave Double Cannon" this time.

At this time, everyone put their eyes on Sammo Hung, because he was the one who insisted on making this movie.

Although the investment in this drama is not large, and there are many guest stars in it, it seems that it has not attracted much attention now.

"It doesn't matter, the most important thing is whether the audience is willing to buy tickets to enter the theater. I believe "The Brave Double Cannon" will definitely get a good box office."

Sammo Hung has great confidence in this, because after finishing the post-production, he carefully watched "The Brave Double Cannon" several times.

Funny, martial arts, love, these most popular themes are all kneaded into this "The Brave Double Cannon".

Sammo Hung has made movies for so many years, he can still tell the difference between good movies and bad movies.

"Let's increase the promotional efforts, and put the advertisement in the week after the movie is released."

As the general manager of Baocheng Cinemas, he is in charge of the publicity department. Naturally, the manager of the publicity department dare not go against his will.

After everyone left, only Hong Jinbao and Cen Jianxun were left in the conference room.

"To be honest, I don't think it's a wise choice for this drama to collide with "Happy Ghost Over Summer Vacation."

Cen Jianxun couldn't help expressing his worries.

After all, "Happy Ghost" has already had a successful precedent, and "The Brave Double Cannon" is an original script that has not yet been verified by the market. It is normal for Cen Jianxun to be worried.

He is more inclined to adjust the schedule of "The Brave Double Cannon" and let other movies hit "Happy Ghost Over Summer Vacation".

"Don't you have confidence in yourself?"

Sammo Hung looked at Cen Jianxun and asked with a smile.

Hearing Sammo Hung's question, Cen Jianxun simply rolled his eyes at the other party.

"It's not a question of confidence. What Baocheng has to do now is to increase our income and not go head-to-head with New Oriental."

What Cen Jianxun is most worried about is that Lin Daoqiu has already said that he will destroy Baocheng Cinemas within two years.

If someone else said this sentence, Cen Jianxun would only think that the other party was joking.

But the person who said this was Lin Daoqiu, and it has been widely spread. Now it is impossible to pretend that you don't know.

Therefore, the current strategy of Baocheng Cinemas has quietly turned from offense to defense. As long as they survive these two years, they will be able to gain a firm foothold.

"You don't want to go head-to-head with Mr. Lin, but do you think the other party will let us go? Besides, the posters and advertisements of "The Brave Double Cannon" have been published. Wouldn't it be a shame to change the file now?"

Sammo Hung shook his head while talking, it seemed that he would rather fight with Lin Daoqiu to lose both than surrender like this.

"Okay, let's forget it this time, but I hope we can think of a more secure solution next time. After all, the box office is now the basis for Baocheng Cinemas to gain a long-term foothold in Xiangjiang. I hope you can think about this more."

In fact, Cen Jianxun is also very clear that it is impossible to change the file of "The Brave Double Cannon" now.

However, he hopes that when he encounters the same situation in the future, he can choose to avoid the edge temporarily and not confront the opponent head-on. This is the most correct choice.
