Hong Kong Entertainment: Kung Fu Superstar 1981

Chapter 114 Two Conditions
Hearing Zhang Yang's words, He Guanchang looked at Zou Wenhuai next to him and shrugged.

That expression seemed to say, look, I knew this guy would definitely have to negotiate terms with us.

Zou Wenhuai smiled and didn't take He Guanchang's complaints to heart. Instead, he said to Zhang Yang, "If you have any concerns, tell them directly now. If they can be solved, Jiahe will definitely help you solve them."

Seeing that the other party got straight to the point, Zhang Yang replied simply: "The fire brigade thing happened this time, and I don't want to do it again. Sharpening a gun in front of the battle is really not in line with my habits, so why not Well, if there are any new film assignments scheduled in the future, please let me know in advance, otherwise, I really can’t help you."

"It's easy to say. If Jiahe asks you to submit a film in the future, it will definitely inform you four months in advance."

This request was not difficult to make, and Zou Wenhuai agreed happily.

But obviously, Zhang Yang's appetite will not be satisfied just yet.

"The Spring Festival is a good time. If this time is lost, Jiahe should compensate me, right? For example, find a time in another month? Mr. Zou, my request is not too much, right?"

"Haha, it's not too much. Of course it's not too much. Let me think about it. Let's do it in June next year. Then I will arrange theaters and reduce the release of other new films. All the promotion resources for that month will be given to the new films prepared for you."

"Okay! That's it."

Zhang Yang cheerfully stretched out his hand to shake Zou Wenhuai's hand, and then motioned for Manyu to follow him and leave.

Zou Wenhuai and He Guanshang also got up and wanted to see Zhang Yang out. Unexpectedly, when Zhang Yang reached the door, he suddenly stopped, turned around and said to the three people in the room: "By the way, Mr. Zou, the new film Jiahe gave me, With such good resources prepared, do I have to shoot some big scenes, and I don’t know about this aspect of budget funds?”

"1000 million, as long as it is within this number, I can approve it to you in advance."

Zou Wenhuai was afraid that Zhang Yang would come up with some other random requests while chatting, so he decided on the spot.

And what Zhang Yang wanted was exactly what he said.

Although Xu Ke has a terrifying budget of 3000 million in front of him, it does not mean that 83 million in 1000 is a small amount.

If Zhang Yang remembers correctly, Cheng Lung's investment in "Plan A" in 83, if not counting Cheng Lung's own high remuneration and just the simple film cost, the total cost was only about 800 million.

Moreover, because Cheng Long cherished his wings during this period, he strived for excellence in every film, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive. Just like this "Plan A", Cheng Long had to work hard for nearly a whole year, although Cheng Long also went to "Five Lucky Stars", but the cost of one year of filming is enough to explain a lot of problems.

With a budget of 1000 million, with this new film, he can finally no longer be tied down.

When leaving Jiahe Building, Zhang Yang was satisfied.

Although there was an accident, the results and gains far exceeded his expectations.

As for the next time, he just needs to wait and see what kind of results "Slaying the Wolf" can achieve in the Christmas season.

……

Soon, Christmas will be here.

Perhaps because he has moved to England since he was nine years old, Zhang Manyu's enthusiasm for Christmas was somewhat beyond Zhang Yang's expectation. Because they had made an appointment to watch the premiere of "Slaying the Wolf" together that night, they took the call. When Zhang Yang looked at the red shawl she was wearing, he couldn't help but clicked his tongue.

Don't tell me, she is a Hong Kong sister, she is really pretty.

Go downstairs and get in the car and go straight to the theater.Arriving in front of the Golden Harvest Cinema in Tsim Sha Tsui, Zhang Yang raised his head and looked around. Only then did he realize that even the door of the cinema had been hung with many bright lanterns, and below the lanterns, there were long lines of Team, crowded crowd.

Zhang Yang put on his mask and sunglasses, put on his peaked cap, and then walked straight into the theater accompanied by Man Yu.

Although this was no longer the first time he watched the premiere of his own film, when he sat in the corner of the film accompanied by Man Yu, he still couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart.

Fortunately, as moviegoers entered the theater one after another and the lights in the theater gradually dimmed, Zhang Yang's heart also calmed down.

At the beginning of the film, a little boy was running freely on the beach, while Simon Yam in a suit and leather suit was following behind him with a smile on his face. However, this warm scene did not last long. As the camera turned, Chen Huimin's chest was exposed. The flying eagle tattoo disappeared in a flash, and was wrapped in a shirt in the blink of an eye. Then he walked out of the cell under the escort of many police officers.

And when the scene returned to Ren Dahua again, he was sitting on the car seat with injuries all over his body, and he opened his eyes blankly.

As he gradually came back to his senses, the camera gradually began to zoom out. In the car that was almost shattered by the collision, the people traveling with Ren Dahua were lying around in a mess, looking like a human tragedy.

Time began to go backwards, and the scene of the car accident began to replay. As Chen Huimin gradually walked out of the cell, the strong sense of oppression made the audience in the theater gasp slightly.

In less than 2 minutes of the opening, the strong sense of oppression brought by the villain played by Chen Huimin has already made the audience secretly gasp.

Zhang Yang in the cinema couldn't help but nodded secretly when he saw this scene.

After all, he is a professional editor at Shaw Brothers. Although it is slightly different from the original film, the effects pursued by the lens are fully demonstrated by him. Now let’s see if the content shown next in the film can continue to be firm. captured the audience.

……

A moment later, inside the studio in Mong Kok.

When Hong Jinbao belatedly walked into the theater, the plot on the big screen had already progressed to the point where Simon Yam drove Ma Jun, played by Zhang Yang, to lead him to understand the situation on the street.

At the same time, a chaotic fight on the street attracted the attention of a patrol police officer. He stepped forward loudly and wanted to scold him, but was surrounded by a large group of gangsters in the blink of an eye. Zhang Yang and Ren Dahua wanted to step forward to stop them, forcing them to The leading gangster flinched, but at this moment Chen Huimin slowly stepped onto the stage.

This short plot alone immediately attracted Hong Jinbao's attention.

These days, it’s not like there aren’t any films about associations, but there hasn’t been any film with as much fanfare as “Slaying the Wolf.”

He sat down with interest, and a chuckle suddenly sounded next to him.

"Brother Jinbao, have you noticed that Yangzi's films are always good at portraying villains?"

"That's not true. Your "Mr. Zombie" will soon be an exception, isn't it?"

"I don't think so. His portrayal of zombies is no worse than that of villains."

Xian Hong Jinbao walked into the theater to watch the movie. Lin Zhengying smiled, and then curiously asked: "Where is Long Zai?"

"He, the production of a new movie is about to start. Now is the busy time. I am the only one worthy of you to watch it today."
