Hong Kong Entertainment: Kung Fu Superstar 1981

Chapter 194 "The Raid" The film world, pointing to the peak
"But Brother Yang, Jiahe is very likely to have directly blocked the distributor. Our films may not even be able to see overseas audiences. No matter how common our language is, if we can't see the audience, wouldn't it be meaningless?"

"Although Golden Harvest is the largest film studio in Hong Kong Island, it has not yet reached the point where it can dominate the world with one hand. As long as our films achieve impressive results in Hong Kong Island, even if the foreign film studios that work with Golden Harvest dare not touch it, Naturally, other film producers will come to us."

"The blockade of Jiahe can last for one or two days, but as long as the performance of our films remains high, there will be a day when those film producers who choose to give up on us will one day kneel on the ground and beg us to cooperate."

Zhang Yang stood up, patted the dust on his pants, gave Zhang Manyu a thumbs up and grinned.

"In the film industry, only films that have withstood the test are the eternal hard currency."

……

The entire film "The Raid" was shot in a single environment and mainly focused on action scenes that Zhang Yang and the team were familiar with, so the filming process seemed particularly smooth.

In just one and a half months, all the content of the film was shot and moved into the post-production stage.

While Chen Jiashang led the post-production team to start working day and night, Zhang Yang was also invited by Pan Disheng to visit the Shaw Brothers Cinemas, which had just been completely and simply renovated.

Of course, these theater chains located across Hong Kong Island now have unified and brand-new names.

DeYoung Cinema.

Pan Disheng listened to Zhang Yang's advice and did not make any major renovations in order to speed up the business hours.

He simply renovated the facade and replaced the old seats and curtains. As for the basic specifications and layout, he still followed the old Shaw Theater chain.

Thanks to this, the renovation time was much happier than expected. When movie fans enter the theater, although they will have a sense of déjà vu, their feelings and experiences will be completely different from before.

Looking at the fully renovated theater with a red cloth covering the plaque, Pan Disheng was full of pride, and Zhang Yang couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart, because he knew very well that as the red cloth fell, he was finally No longer needing to be controlled by anyone, you can start making films according to your own ideas.

"Yangzi, the theater is expected to open in October, but the first film shot by my subsidiary Debao Films will not be released until at least November. It's up to you to get off to a good start."

Hearing Pan Disheng's words, Zhang Yang reacted, smiled and touched Pan Disheng with his elbow.

"You asked Hong Jinbao to help you do it, right? My friend in Jiahe told me that because Hong Jinbao is busy making movies for you these days, he doesn't stay in Jiahe honestly, which made my former boss very angry."

Pan Disheng laughed and didn't reply to Zhang Yang's words.

Although he and Zhang Yang were partners, no matter what kind of agreement he and Hong Jinbao reached, there was no need to disclose it to Zhang Yang, and he had no intention of discussing it with Zhang Yang.

Regarding this, Zhang Yang understood that in business, no one, even the closest partner, likes to be seen clearly by others. And even if Pan Disheng didn't explain, Zhang Yang also knew very well why Pan Disheng chose to invest in the film and television industry.

Making money through filming is just one of the things for Pan Disheng.

In addition, La Jin and Yang Ziqiong are the second, and promoting their own Disheng jewelry through film and television channels is the third. Even if Pan Disheng doesn't say it, it is not a secret to Zhang Yang.

Of course, it is precisely because of Pan Disheng's "intentional evil" towards the film industry that Zhang Yang is willing to cooperate with him.Because Zhang Yang knew very well that after Hong Jinbao faced the difficult multiple-choice question and answered the question, Pan Disheng, who successfully married Michelle Yeoh, would choose to retire after success.

At that time, it will also be an opportunity for Zhang Yang to truly and fully control Deyang Cinema.

"I will do part of the pre-opening publicity through the league and ATV. As for the rest of the media, it depends on you, Mr. Pan."

Zhang Yang raised his head, looked at the red cloth on the plaque and spoke slowly.

"Okay, I know a lot of people in this area, don't worry."

Pan Disheng's words are really not self-praising.

The reason why his Disheng Jewelry became an instant hit back then was thanks to Pan Disheng's advertising strategy. Although Zhang Yang was also good at hyping up topics, he was really good at making money and playing tricks on traditional print media advertisements. Still not as versatile as Pan Disheng.

……

As time goes by, the official opening of Deyang Cinema Line is getting closer and closer.

Pan Disheng, who was in charge of print media publicity, took the lead and raised a topic in Mingpao. He occupied the center of the entire Mingpao and wrote eight bold and colorful characters in only bold and black fonts.

Zhang Yang Jiahe, parting ways!
Such a short eight words, without any explanation or unnecessary topics, but the effect is sensational!

For a time, not only the fans were excited, but also the entire Hong Kong film industry became a sensation!
At the beginning of the year, Golden Harvest had just relied on the three punches of Cheng Long, Hong Jinbao, and Zhang Yang to take in a total box office of 3000 million with "Fast Truck" and topped the box office list of the year. But it is not October yet. The two waves of people actually announced their separation, which is really shocking!
And because Ming Pao did not give any relevant explanation or even speculation, the curiosity in the hearts of movie fans suddenly reached its peak. For a while, the whole Hong Kong could not help but discuss the causes and consequences of this incident.

And Pan Disheng, who has created such a high topic, has not yet ended his publicity offensive.

The next day, the center of the newly released film biweekly was replaced by fourteen large characters.

From police to SWAT, on and off screen, a comprehensive evolution!
Someone with good intentions started to analyze the news and contacted Zhang Yang about filming in Kowloon. He quickly guessed that from policeman to special policeman, it should refer to Zhang Yang stepping out of the police role in the "Slaying the Wolf" series. The new film will be a special policeman. As for the role of the team, the eight words of comprehensive evolution on and off the screen are very thought-provoking.

If Zhang Yang goes from being a police officer to a SWAT officer on screen, what about off screen?What has Zhang Yang evolved?

Could it be that the reason for evolution is because Zhang Yang left Jiahe?

The already restless movie fans became even more excited because of this sentence, and there were more heated discussions.

Finally, in the magazine of Film and Television Illustrated, it was the same central layout, and the content occupied a huge space but only had eight short characters, but it completely ignited the fire in the hearts of movie fans.

"The Raid" film industry is at its peak!
