Hong Kong Entertainment's Life Simulator

Chapter 43 I Don't Want To Continue Poisoning Anymore

On the night of September 9st, before Zhao Donghuai went out, he heard a knock on the door. When he went to open the door, he found that it was Guan Jiahui dressed up. Sister Guan looked pretty after a little make-up.

"Director, it's the midnight show tonight, are you afraid?"

Sister Guan was also polite, she took the initiative to hold his arm and smiled, Zhao Donghuai laughed, "What's there to be afraid of?"

Speaking of which, since the last time he had Lan Jieying as a female doctor on the set, and joked that he wanted Guan Jiahui to play the mother in the new play... This one hasn't been on the set for a while.

Guan Jiahui's eyes widened, "The Cane Bite Gang is terrible. If you don't like it, everyone will curse on the spot and throw sugarcane at the main creative team."

"When my old man was still making movies, I was very nervous every time a new movie was released."

Zhao Donghuai shook his head, "It's okay, I have confidence in the new world."

Midnight Show... as the name suggests.

It's just past dinner time, and it's still very early, after the midnight screening at the Shaw Brothers Mong Kok Theatre.

Tomorrow, 12 Shaw theaters, including other leading theaters, will screen together. There are many shows every day, and the treatment given by Shaw Daheng is not bad.

The only thing is that the two parties have agreed to share. After deducting the entertainment tax, Shaw Cinemas will get [-]%, and Zhao Donghuai's Zhao Films will only get [-]%. But this is the current clear rule in the Hong Kong Island film and television industry.

Except for a few film productions, such as New Art City, or the films of Cheng Long, Hong Yubao, etc., all small and medium-sized companies have this ratio.

Just like what the guy who met Boss Shao said for the first time, everything follows the rules.This is because after the establishment of the Golden Princess Cinemas, Hong Kong Island took the lead in abolishing the subsidy system for cinemas.

If you follow the previous rules, you will get a share of the package fee before it is screened, and the share will be much more deceitful.

However, Zhao Donghuai is also satisfied. If there is no accident, after the new world, he should also set up his own banner in the film industry, and he can be called a successful director.

The next moment, he looked at Guan Jiahui curiously, "How do you know I live here?"

Before spending 90 yuan to buy this second-hand house of more than 100 square meters, he lived in hotels a lot of the time.

Guan Jiahui smiled like a flower, "Hey, you didn't say anything when you bought a house, but let me help you refer to it."

"Are you going to meet up with Sir Du and Brother Fa now?"

Zhao Donghuai nodded, "There's no rush, but it's okay to go early."

Their main creative team will definitely go to the leading theater to sit in the first show and see the audience's reaction.

By the way, tonight is still the midnight show of burning the Old Summer Palace, but the film directed by Li Hanxiang and starring Leung Ka Fai will be screened in Shuangnan Cinemas, which is currently a relatively large mainland cinema on Hong Kong Island.

It's not that Zhao Donghuai never thought about getting in touch with Shuangnan...but he thought about it in the early days of time travel, and when the first film was confirmed to be a new world, this idea disappeared.

In this day and age, any film with colorful and violent scenes should not be considered in Shuangnan. Even if there are some inappropriate color jokes in the lines of the film, it will be blocked. Maybe in a few years, with the reform and opening step by step, there will be a chance .

Thinking of this, Zhao Donghuai said with a smile, "After watching the midnight show, I invite you to watch the Burning of the Old Summer Palace. I don't know what their screening mode is?"

This film was also famous in the previous life, not to mention that it caused Director Li and Liang Jiahui to be banned by Wanwan. With its epic visual style, Director Li actually built a simulated location of the Old Summer Palace in Changping, the capital city during filming.

Without good enough special effects, that is to burn the simulation base!Definitely a great event!

The Burning of the Old Summer Palace is a two-part film, the first of which earned more than 1500 million at the box office, and the second, which will be released in October next month, also took more than 10 million.

That's not counting, and the island country, which should be living a bad life, still took 13 billion yen.

13 billion yen is also more than 1983 million US dollars in 500!

Guan Jiahui blinked, feeling a little confused, is it late enough after watching the midnight show?This little brother actually wants to invite her to watch other movies? ?

Could it be that she is so old and decrepit that she can only act as a mother in film and television dramas?Omg it was horrible.

Forget it, let's wait and see the specific box office of New World.

In other words, even if the new world has not been released yet, and there are no results, Director Zhao just bought a mansion of more than 1000 square feet without celebrating, and he is a bit expected.

………………

Tsim Sha Tsui, a tenement building.

Lan Jieying waved back casually, ran downstairs after saying a few words, and ran over quickly after seeing Zhou Xingxing, Zeng Yuqian, Liang Chaowei, Liu Jialing and others on the street.

"Let's go, shall we go to the Mong Kok theater now?"

Xingzi was so excited that he wanted to dance, "Go, but keep a low profile, I'm afraid Director Zhao and the others will feel a little embarrassed seeing us so many people."

Zeng Yuqian couldn't help but enviously said, "Stop showing off, you two, be careful of being beaten! Really, we are all classmates, we don't even get on TV dramas, you two are on movies, it's so sour."

"By the way, what about Liu Qingyun and Tao Dayu? Don't call them? We are all classmates..."

Lan Jieying was taken aback, "It's not good to invite too many people together. They are in groups. If an acquaintance bumps into them, they will think what we do."

During her studies, she had a mediocre relationship with a group of classmates, but she had a good time with Zeng Yuqian, and when the two were assigned to host the 430 shuttle, the relationship would be even better.

After a pause, Lan Jieying said again, "It's still early, but you can watch other movies first? Even if it's not good, you can still chat about acting in the movie theater and learn acting skills."

She didn't forget that Director Zhao asked her to prepare well after the last time, saying that she might be used in the next play, so that Director Zhao could stop her alone. much better.

Of course, before Director Zhao left that time, he also gave Xingzi a role as a personal computer intelligence expert...she didn't even know what a personal computer was.

But she would definitely not talk nonsense about this kind of thing. If it gets to the director's ears and makes the other party think that she is too flirtatious, if she rejects it, then it will be embarrassing.

Last time, Zhao Donghuai also made it clear that it was for consideration, and he was not sure whether to use her or not, it still depended on her preparation performance and results.

However, a girl character who has a bad relationship with her father, is a bit rebellious, and finally embraces the family again, Lan Jieying feels that she can still play well, isn't she just a girl?Which boy and girl has never rebelled?

When a group of people were chatting and laughing, excitedly wanting to take the bus on the side of the road, Xingzi walked even more drifting... It's not a show off, he liked acting since he was a child, even if he was rejected from the training class, he would continue. He persisted until now he is 21 , the first time on the big screen ah.

There are two close-up shots of the big screen image, which can be regarded as the first appearance, how can young people not be excited.

As the night continued to pass, it was finally approaching midnight.

Shaw Brothers Mong Kok Theater, Zhao Donghuai, Du Qifeng, Cheng Xiaodong and others have already arrived. Seeing the figures who came to buy tickets one by one and prepare to watch the movie inside, Du Qifeng said happily, "The flow of people is not bad, there can be four or five in the midnight show." The attendance rate is very good.”

"Our play doesn't look any worse than normal."

Zhou Run, who had been on the show for a few days and engaged in various promotions, let out a lot of loose smoke, "Du sir, your requirements can be higher, I have been a box office poison for several years, I really don't want to continue to poison!"

It should be said that the main creative team of such a large crew is more nervous than Zhao Donghuai, and they are all in one batch instead of one or two or two or three.

Tonight's midnight movie at the Mong Kok theater, in addition to the audience attracted by the publicity, or the cane biting gang, there were also many media and film critics who were invited.

There is one thing to say, purely new directors generally can't attract a few media and film critics, Zhao Donghuai is different...even Hong Jinbao didn't know where he heard it, and thought it was Shao Daheng who supported him to make a movie with 500 million yuan, or Shaw's props One-stop support from actors to screenings.

This is a gimmick.
