Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 924 Aiming at the Spring Festival

Just as Lin Daoqiu was busy filming "Xiao Li Fei Dao".

Pan Disheng suddenly held a brief press conference in the former Shaw Brothers Longtou Theater, which has now been renamed Baocheng Theater.

Although it was a brief press conference, the number of reporters who came was quite a bit.

Not only reporters from major newspapers in Hong Kong were present, but even ordinary small newspapers were not left behind.

At this time, Pan Disheng, who was sitting on the stage, seemed to be in high spirits.

It can be seen that he is now in good spirits on happy occasions, no wonder his complexion is so good.

Hong Jinbao and Cen Jianxun sat on the left and right of him, Yuen Biao, Xu Guanwen, Shi Tian, ​​Zeng Zhiwei, Tsui Hark, these stars and directors also sat on the stage.

But the strange thing was that there was an empty seat next to Sammo Hung, as if someone hadn't arrived yet.

It is undeniable that the strength of Dibao Cinemas at this time can be said to be the best in Xiangjiang, and only New Oriental can compete with Dibao.

As for another film company, Golden Harvest, their recent situation can be said to be in decline.

After losing Jackie Chan and Xu Guanwen, Golden Harvest could no longer find any stars that could be sold.

I'm afraid that what Zou Wenhuai couldn't figure out was that he just sold Shaw Cinemas to Pan Disheng, and it would trigger such a series of chain reactions.

If he had known that such a situation would happen, even if he gave Zou Wenhuai more money, he would never sell the theater to Pan Disheng.

"Welcome all journalists to this press conference. On behalf of Dibao Academy, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to you all."

Pan Disheng's view of reporters is a bit different from that of people in the entertainment industry.

As early as after he got the start-up capital of 100 million US dollars from his father, the first thing Pan Disheng did was to advertise.

He bought eight full pages in the South China Morning Post. The first five pages were used to wish citizens a Merry Christmas, and the last three pages were used to promote his famous brand products.

For the use of media, although there is no way to compare with Lin Daoqiu, compared to other film companies, Pan Disheng still has his own unique understanding than them.

Today's press conference is Pan Disheng's first move to make Dibao Cinemas famous.

With a lineup of so many directors and big stars, as long as it is publicized, it will definitely attract the attention of Xiangjiang citizens.

There is still more than half a year between now and the Spring Festival in 84.

What Pan Disheng has to do now is to make the majority of Xiangjiang citizens look forward to Dibao Cinemas within six months.

But for ordinary citizens, in the film industry, nothing attracts their attention more than stars.

It's no wonder that Pan Disheng tried every means to get so many stars to make Dibao Cinemas famous.

He knows very well that as long as he has enough stars in his hands, he doesn't need to be afraid at all. The box office of Dibao Cinemas will not be able to beat New Oriental.

"I have loved movies very much since I was a child, so this time I have the opportunity to buy this theater chain from Golden Harvest, which is a fulfillment of my childhood dream."

Whether Pan Disheng's words are true or false, no one will investigate.

The reason why so many reporters are here today is entirely for the stars and directors on stage.

"I have always upheld a belief that if we want to do it, we must do our best. Dibao Cinemas has not been established for a long time, and it has not produced any films under it. I believe everyone should be very curious about this."

Speaking of this, Pan Disheng suddenly raised his right hand, and stretched it out: "Everyone, please welcome our mysterious guest today with warm applause."

After Pan Disheng finished speaking, everyone immediately turned their eyes to that side.

Not long after, Jackie Chan came out of the backstage with a smile on his face, and there was an uproar at the scene.

It must be known that Jackie Chan joined New Oriental before this. Why did he suddenly come to Dibao Cinemas? This made the reporters on the scene puzzled and very excited.

Jackie Chan walked to Sammo Hung and sat down, then smiled and nodded to everyone.

"Thank you, Mr. Pan, for the invitation. The reason why I am here today is because I will work on a film with my fellow apprentices."

Before Lin Daoqiu approached Jackie Chan and briefly told him about the current situation, Jackie Chan expressed his understanding.

After all, the Golden Statue Awards have been held with great difficulty. If Di Bao really refuses to attend, whether the Golden Statue Awards can be held or not will become a big problem.

But the reporters down there didn't know the inside story. Apart from being shocked, what they wanted to know most was why Jackie Chan suddenly ran over to cooperate with Di Bao.

"Brother Long has just joined New Oriental, so he came to help Di Bao in filming, wouldn't Mr. Lin have any objections?"

When it was the reporter's turn to ask questions, some reporters immediately raised this question.

"This cooperation with Dibao is Mr. Lin's approval."

Jackie Chan's answer was very brief, but his words had revealed enough information.

"Brother Hong, can you tell me what kind of movie the three of you are going to make this time?"

The topic turned to Sammo Hung. After all, he is the elder brother of the three. Now that Jackie Chan has not made a name for himself in Hollywood, it is obvious that Sammo Hung is superior in terms of status.

After taking the microphone, Sammo Hung replied with a smile.

"It's rare that the three of us are able to work together again this time, but I just found out about the news not long ago. As for what to shoot, we have to discuss carefully before we can decide."

Sammo Hung did not lie, he did not know the news not long ago.

In addition to being shocked, he also had to admire that Pan Disheng was able to get Jackie Chan from Lin Daoqiu's hands.

Although I don't know what method the other party used, but being able to take advantage of Lin Daoqiu shows that Pan Disheng's methods are not simple.

Originally, Sammo Hung thought that Pan Disheng was just a successful businessman.

And his success may have to add some family factors.

But now Sammo Hung has completely dispelled this idea, and he even has a fear of Pan Disheng.

Even Lin Daoqiu suffered a disadvantage in his hands. He was just a star, and if there was a conflict with him, it would definitely not be Pan Disheng who was unlucky.

At this time, Pan Disheng announced in public.

"See Dibao Cinemas next year during the Spring Festival. Three big productions invested and produced by us will be released. We will strive to be the first shot for Dibao Cinemas. Please look forward to it."
