Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 657 Congratulations or Provocation
"Hello, dear Lin, I heard that it is a very important festival for you recently, I wish you a happy Chinese New Year."

On the other end of the phone, Langmeyer was sitting in his office with his feet on the table, with a happy smile on his face.

Even from the other end of the phone, Lin Daoqiu could feel that Langmeyer was in a particularly good mood today.

The box office of "The Mummy" in North America has broken the 8000 million mark, even surpassing the global box office of Spielberg's "Raiders of the Lost Ark" of [-] million.

Although I don't know how much the final box office of "The Mummy" will be, but the proceeds of this film alone will at least bring Universal more than 5000 million in revenue. No wonder Langmeyer is in such a good mood.

"Thank you for your blessing."

After a brief chat, Lin Daoqiu hung up the phone.

In addition to wishing Lin Daoqiu a happy new year on the phone, Langmeyer also inquired about what movie Lin Daoqiu planned to release during this year's Christmas.

After chatting for more than ten minutes, Lin Daoqiu put down the phone.

In the past few days, he has received a lot of New Year's greeting calls. Even Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao, who were filming in Hollywood, called him New Year's greetings on New Year's Eve.

However, Lin Daoqiu could tell from the phone that Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao were not very interested.

In fact, Lin Daoqiu has been paying attention to them all the time, especially from Condison, he has also learned a lot of news.

After Myerson fooled Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao, he was indeed making an action movie, but the protagonist was a white actor.

As for Yuen Biao and Sammo Hung, both of them are supporting roles, and they also have to play the role of martial arts director.

But in Hollywood, the working method of making movies is far different from that of Xiangjiang. Although the two have a lot of kung fu, they can't use it.

Originally, the ambitions of these two at the beginning have been slowly obliterated.

But the good news is that Myerson's play is not a big production, and the filming cycle will not be too long. At most, the film will be completed in the second half of the year.

I believe that when the time comes, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao should be able to figure out whether they should continue to waste time in Hollywood, or return to Xiangjiang to make a big splash.

………………

"Best Partner", which finally won a box office of 3700 million, held a joyful celebration banquet on the tenth day of the Lunar New Year.

On the other side, the movie "Five Lucky Stars" starring Sammo Hung and others also got a box office of 2800 million.

Although there are only three people left in New Art City, they started to become famous in Xiangjiang because of the "Best Partner".

Meijin, Huang Baiming and Teddy Robin were all very happy on this day.

After all, they never imagined that this movie could get nearly 4000 million box office results in Xiangjiang.

The three people standing at the door to greet the guests seemed to have confident smiles on their faces.

It coincided with the Chinese New Year, and it was a matter of joy on top of joy, so this time, with Lin Daoqiu's consent, Maijia sent out invitations.

Almost all the prominent figures in Xiangjiang had been invited by Mai Jia, but there were still some people who were not invited by Mai Jia, such as those from Baojia Cinemas.

When Mai Jia and others were welcoming the guests at the door, the sharp-eyed Teddy Robin suddenly saw several unexpected guests coming from outside.

"Boss, a guest has arrived."

Teddy Robin quickly reminded Maijia.

Mai Jia, who was shaking hands with someone, immediately turned his head when he heard what Teddy Robin said.

Shi Tian, ​​Zeng Zhiwei, Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng walked in from the outside.

Looking at the four people walking towards them, Mai Jia secretly sighed in her heart.

Originally, today, they should stand together to welcome the guests, but unfortunately now everyone has divided their things, and they have become enemies, which really makes him feel very sad.

"Baldhead, congratulations."

Shi Tian had a good relationship with Mai Jia, so he smiled and extended his hand to Mai Jia.

Maijia didn't shake Shi Tian's hand, but looked down at Shi Tian, ​​and then slowly raised her head.

"Mr. Shi, I don't remember sending invitations to you."

These are all people from New Oriental who jumped to Bao Shaogang's side. Naturally, Mai Jia would not be too intimate with them in public.

Otherwise, if Lin Daoqiu knew about it, even if he didn't say anything on the surface, I'm afraid he would definitely feel unhappy in his heart.

So the best way is to keep a distance from them, so maybe you can avoid some unnecessary troubles.

"Hehe... You guys are quite vigilant."

With a dry smile, he took his hand back, and Shi Tian could more or less guess why Mai Jia had such a reaction.

After all, what I did at the beginning was indeed a bit unkind. Not long after the filming of "Best Partner", I switched to Bao Shaogang.

Now that "Best Partner" has achieved such a good result, it stands to reason that they should have a share, but now the identities of the four of them can only be guests, not hosts.

"Mr. Lin will be coming later, I advise you to leave quickly, or you will be in trouble if you meet Mr. Lin at that time."

After Mai Jia finished speaking, she raised her hand and looked at the time, as if to remind the other party that Lin Daoqiu would be here soon.

Zeng Zhiwei and Tsui Hark, when they heard what Mai Jia said, they shrank back unconsciously.

In fact, it was Shi Tian's idea to come to this celebration banquet today, Zeng Zhiwei and Tsui Hark were not so courageous.

After all, they have violated Lin Daoqiu's big taboo by jumping from Xinyi City to Bao Shaogang's side, and now they want to participate in this celebration banquet, which is inevitably a bit provocative.

But Shi Tian didn't think so. He felt that since he had already done it, there was no need to hide it.

And taking a step back, without the four of them, it would be absolutely impossible for this "Best Partner" to come out.

"It's normal to change jobs in the industry. Mr. Lin's tolerance is not as small as you think."

It sounded like Stone was praising Lin Daoqiu.

The other guests who came in showed surprise and astonishment when they saw New Art City gathered together these days.

Because they all knew that Shi Tian and the others had defected from Xinyi City and transferred to Lin Daoqiu's opponent to work.

Seeing them here is simply too unbelievable.

"Mr. Shi said it so lightly. If you really have the courage, I will trouble you to repeat your words in front of Mr. Lin later, and then I will really convince you."

Mai Jia gave Shi Tian a thumbs up, but it sounded like he was using aggressive tactics.

　Thank you, ants, for the monthly pass!mwah! ╰(*°▽°*)╯
