Rebooting the Peak Years of 1985

Chapter 365 Arrogant Debao

Li Chaoren and the other three wanted to ease the relationship between them. Li Zhaoji was shocked and felt wary, so he could only respond slightly.

However, there were no specific words to ease the relationship. It was obvious that he was only afraid of the strength of Chen Huajiang's men, rather than wanting to ease the relationship with the other party.

Chen Huajiang could naturally see that he was responding to the three people's words at every turn.

In this way, the three of them gradually gave up, and finally left each other.

After returning home, Li Zhaoji fired the bodyguards who had brought him to Li Chaojia's house during the day, and recruited soldiers everywhere in the Hong Kong security market.

Apparently what happened during the day shocked him greatly and made him feel that the security forces around him were useless.

After all, it is one of the four major families, and every move it makes is the focus of the media. Naturally, some media also reported the Li family's actions.

It is said that the Li family regularly changes guards, and the rich are cautious.It is also said that the internal strife in the Li family intensified, and Li Zhaoji was afraid that his three sons would bribe his bodyguards to kill him.

In short, all kinds of gossip is flying all over the sky, and the inside story of wealthy families has always been a favorite focus of Hong Kong people.

Naturally, Chen Huajiang also saw the Li family's operations from the newspaper. He knew in his heart that this was what Li Zhaoji did when he was stimulated, and he did not take it seriously.

If the Li family wants to play, he will accompany them to the end.

At the same time, "Young and Dangerous" and "Autumn Fairy Tale" were released at the same time.

Debao Pictures has carried out a grand promotion, which is reflected in the large-scale theatrical release.

Compared with "Young and Dangerous", the film schedule rate is far insufficient.

"An Autumn Fairy Tale" can also be regarded as a classic film by John Woo, but it is far behind compared to "A Better Tomorrow".

In particular, Debao Films used the signboard of the main cast of "The True Colors of Heroes", which naturally caused some bad comments from those who watched it.

However, these are rare trivial matters. Overall, "Autumn Fairy Tale" still has a positive reputation.

As shown in the box office, the box office exceeded 300 million for three consecutive days, and directly exceeded 1000 million on the fourth day.

No matter how you look at it, "Autumn Fairy Tale" will be a big-selling film, and Debao Pictures and Dickson Poon are also very proud of it.

Dickson Poon even got carried away and was surrounded by reporters at the door of the restaurant after partying with beauties in the evening. He made bold statements about "sweeping the summer vacation".

"Pan Shaohao's powerful words swept the summer vacation!"

""Autumn Fairy Tale" made a decision together and won 100 million at the box office first. It was unstoppable and far ahead of the second-ranked "Heroes"."

"The beauty of Dickson Poon's night party may be inspired by the good box office of "Autumn Fairy Tale", and she is in a very happy mood."

The next day, reports of Pan Dickson's interview with reporters were flooded with major entertainment media.

Most of the media also expressed their recognition of Dickson Pan's words, believing that "Autumn Fairy Tale" will definitely sweep the summer vacation.

at the same time.

Among young people in Hong Kong, "Young and Dangerous" has formed a reputation.

"Chen Haonan is so handsome, and "Young and Dangerous" is so beautiful."

"I like pheasants. Pheasants are more loyal."

"What are you talking about? Chen Haonan, what kind of pheasant?"

"You haven't even watched "Young and Dangerous"? You're out. Don't say you're hanging out with us when you go out."

At the food stall, a group of young people were chatting. People who had watched "Young and Dangerous" were beaming.

As for those who haven't seen it, it was definitely worth the money after being educated on it and then urged to watch "Young and Dangerous".

Similar scenes happen in many places, parks, playgrounds, bars, etc.

"Boss, here are three tickets for "Young and Dangerous"."

"Give me two, what? "Autumn Fairy Tale", oh, wasn't what I just said clear? I want tickets for "Young and Dangerous"."

"Boss, here are two tickets for "Young and Dangerous". What? No more. Why don't you open a movie theater? Watch "Autumn Fairy Tale"? Do I look like a kid who watches fairy tales?"

At the entrance of many cinemas, young people flocked to the theater in groups of twos, threes, and fives, all coming to buy tickets for "Young and Dangerous."

This made theater owners a bit confused. The customers who came in droves wanted to buy "Young and Dangerous" movie tickets. Some theater owners responded quickly and increased the filming rate of "Young and Dangerous".

This caused many people who had not bought tickets to flock to the theater. Then other theater owners also responded and increased the film schedule of "Young and Dangerous".

After all, no one has trouble with money.

Just like this, on the fourth day, "Young and Dangerous" took in a box office of 150 million, with a total box office of 220 million in four days, approaching the second-ranked "Heroes".

"Heroes" is a typical follow-up work. With "A Better Tomorrow" becoming a huge hit, follow-up works are also like crucian carp crossing the river.

Although there are a few past works among them, most of them are shoddy and bad works that took advantage of the success of "A Better Tomorrow" to make a fortune.

"Heroes" is not bad, but it is far inferior to "A Better Tomorrow". Its reputation is also affected by the current audience's dissatisfaction with shoddy movies that follow the trend, and its reputation is getting worse and worse.

On the fifth day, something shocking happened.

"Young and Dangerous" took in 250 million at the box office, not only surpassing "Heroes" in total box office, but also beating "Autumn Fairy Tale"'s 240 million at the box office in a single day.

When the box office data from theaters came out, media and film critics from all walks of life immediately flocked to the film.

Of course, this also made Dickson Poon worried, and he spent a lot of money to invite various media and film critics to throw dirty water on "Young and Dangerous".

Shoddy production, incorrect views, bad teaching to children, fake filming, etc. were all filled with media from all walks of life.

"Boss Chen, we can't be so passive. I'm going to contact some tabloids and spend money to bribe some film critics to help promote the movie."

Long Wu called Chen Huajiang, and "Young and Dangerous" began to rise against the wind. The good form made him happy, but at the same time, the media trend made him worry.

"Brother Long, there's no need to do that. You have to know who the audience for the "Young and Dangerous" movie is. It's young people. Who cares about reading movie reviews among young people these days?"

"But I finally have an idea. Let's do the same thing and do the opposite! Now, aren't newspapers and film critics saying that "Young and Dangerous" is terrible? Then why don't we just add fuel to the fire and let the tabloids do the opposite? , the more exaggerated, the better. I will get you a copy of this later, and you can contact the media that you have good relations with, and I will follow up here."

Chen Huajiang didn't take Long Wu's worries seriously, but after thinking about it, he came up with an idea.

After all, it is a self-produced movie, and it is a profitable product, so it should be taken seriously.

"What!? Bribing the media to blackmail our movie? Chen Huajiang, are you smart?"

"Did you just drink and are you still drunk? Otherwise, why would you say such stupid words?"

Long Wu was confused when he heard it. Now "Young and Dangerous" has a bad reputation. He wanted to bribe the media to improve the movie's reputation.

In the end, Chen Huajiang asked him to join the ranks of hacking his own movies. Isn't this a show of wit and full of wisdom?
