Chapter 286: Build a movie theater

The next day, Guan Zhilin opened her eyes and reached out to hug the stalwart embrace beside her, but she was in vain. Only then did Guan Zhilin turn her head to look, and found that Li Xuan, who was sleeping beside her, had already left at some point. She was holding onto the crystal chandelier on the ceiling, feeling very disappointed.

After a few minutes, Guan Zhilin suddenly remembered something, sat up from the bed at once, opened the quilt to reveal her exquisite snow-white body, and searched carefully on the bed. Soon, she found the check folded in half beside the bed pillow.

Guan Zhilin picked up the check and glanced at it, her heartbeat immediately accelerated, and a look of surprise appeared on her pretty face. 5000000! Guan Zhilin looked at it carefully again and confirmed that the number was not wrong, and her face was full of excited smiles.

Her previous traces of lost and sad negative emotions have now been swept away. This huge sum of money is enough for her to struggle for four or five years. The salary of a movie star now is not as high as it will be in the tens of millions a few decades later. In the past 1982, the box office champion in Hong Kong was "Best Partner" starring Xu Guanjie, and it only won a total box office of 26 million Hong Kong dollars.

Among the first-line stars in Hong Kong, there are actually very few who can break through one million, including the Xu brothers, Jackie Chan, Hong Jinbao and others. Female stars are paid less than male stars. "Chu Liuxiang" filmed by tvb was introduced to Taiwan last year, which made Zhao Luzhi, who played the role of "Rongrong", become popular all over Taiwan at once. So Taiwanese filmmakers came one after another and offered her a high price of 250,000 Hong Kong dollars, vying to invite her to make movies.

With the support of Asian Films, Guan Zhilin has recently been promoted to a first-line actress, but more often she plays the role of some beautiful vases. The brokerage company offered her a price of 150,000-200,000 Hong Kong dollars per play. These remunerations are in addition to the commissions of the brokerage companies. And after paying the tax, not half of what is really available. Even if you include commercial income such as shooting advertisements and receiving endorsements. Guan Zhilin's hard work for a year really earned only about one million.

Compared with the average salary family with an annual salary of only 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, this is naturally a lot of income. That's why countless people aspire to be a star. In addition to enjoying the kind of vanity that stands in the spotlight and being paid attention to, the real interests are also an important reason for attracting countless boys and girls to join the big dye vat of the showbiz.

And Li Xuan wrote a check for 5 million without even blinking his brows, which was a huge sum of money that Guan Zhilin had never seen in her life. She is a person who enjoys it better. Although she earns a lot from filming, she usually spends more. Buying cosmetics, buying clothes, buying bags, since becoming a star, Guan Zhilin naturally disdains to use those popular goods. And choose some expensive luxury brands.

Under such extravagant expenses, Guan Zhilin did not save much of the money earned from filming. So she has always longed to step into the wealthy and wealthy, and live a luxurious life of worry-free food and clothing. Obviously, Li Xuan is the best target for her to realize her dream.

The net worth of "Fortune Li", converted into Hong Kong dollars, has exceeded 50 billion. A mere 5 million yuan is just a drop in the bucket for Li Xuan.

After a while, Guan Zhilin's excited mood calmed down a little, and she found that she had a new set of clothes with the check. The suit that Guan Zhilin wore last night had already been reimbursed under Li Xuan's ripping off. Before Li Xuan left, it was obvious that someone brought her new clothes that she changed into today.

Guan Zhilin felt a hint of sweetness in her heart. I didn't expect such a strong man last night to have such a careful side. She went into the bathroom and turned on the water valve, ready to take a nice hot bath. And what she was thinking about now was how to capture Li Xuan's heart so that she could stay by this man's side all the time.

Filming is not an easy task. Especially if the filming process is not smooth, or when the director has to meet the deadline, it is common for more than ten hours of continuous rotation. Sometimes Guan Zhilin comes home. I was so tired that I didn't even have the strength to take off my clothes, so I fell asleep. By comparison. If she can capture the big treasure of Li Xuan, she doesn't need to work as hard as she is now. Just sit at home and dress up beautifully.

What Guan Zhilin envied most in her heart was Zhong Chuhong. She also had an acting background, but now she has become Mrs. Li, who is envied and envied by all Hong Kong girls. Every time Zhong Chuhong attends a high-class social banquet, she will become the focus of everyone's attention, and is called the most temperamental woman by Hong Kong newspapers. Guan Zhilin didn't feel that she was compared, but her life was not as good as Zhong Chuhong's, and she just didn't meet Li Xuan earlier.

There is no Guan Zhilin's part in the scene today, but she still endured the discomfort of her lower body and rushed to the set because there was Li Xuan's part in the afternoon. In fact, Li Xuan's cameo is a very rich diamond king, and he only needs to perform in his true colors, and there are not many scenes. But Li Xuan obviously did not have the talent to be an actor. Not only did he often make all kinds of low-level mistakes, but his performance was also very rigid.

So Zeng Zhiwei, who was sitting behind the monitor, could only keep ng. If it was another actor, he would have gone mad long ago. The scene that should have been filmed in a few hours turned out to have been filmed for two days. But in front of Li Xuan, not only did he not have the slightest resentment, on the contrary, he gave Li Xuan a play with a smile on his face and was very kind, so he was almost teaching him.

"This one is over!" After taking the shot three times in a row, Zeng Zhiwei finally nodded happily.

"It seems that filming is indeed not suitable for me!" Li Xuan shook his head helplessly. He had already seen Zhou Liang Shuyi, who was standing behind Zeng Zhiwei with a playful smile on her face.

In the past few days, the "Five Lucky Stars" crew has been welcoming many onlookers. For example, a group of ATV's producers and directors who were filming TV series on the same set before came to watch their big boss's screen debut. As a result, a group of people looked at his poor acting skills, wanted to laugh but was too embarrassed to laugh, endured very hard, and quickly fled.

And just now, Du Wenqiang, the fat man as the president of Dongfang Game Company, even took the lead in leaving his post during working hours, and came to the Kowloon studio from Central to watch the excitement. It wasn't enough for him to stand on the sidelines and watch, and he personally ended up as an extra once, and also appeared in the camera.

"Delete more of my scenes, it's not because I personally drag down the progress of the entire crew, it's not in line with the rules!" Li Xuan smiled at Zeng Zhiwei, "I will sponsor the crew of 1 million Hong Kong dollars for these few days. extra expenses!"

In the past two days, Li Xuan has had enough acting addiction, and he has lost a lot of enthusiasm for continuing to act. So just prepare to quit early and let Zeng Zhiwei delete some of his scenes. Originally, his cameo role was actually optional, and even if it was all edited later, it would not have any effect on the movie.

And these two days, because of Li Xuan's drag, most of the entire crew had nothing to do. Because ATV Group, the parent company of Asian Pictures, is not a sole proprietorship of Li Xuan, and the company has other small shareholders. Li Xuan is not prepared to harm the interests of other shareholders because of his own ticket play. He simply sponsors the film in his own name with 1 million yuan, which is enough to make up for the loss caused by slowing down the process for two days.

"You don't come here specifically to see me perform!" Li Xuan turned to Zhou Liang Shuyi and asked. She, a well-known strong woman in the Hong Kong film and television industry, will definitely not be as boring as the previous Fatty Du.

"I was just passing by and saw your wonderful performance just now, boss!" Zhou Liang Shuyi said while holding back a smile.

"You people are all daring! Not only do you not praise my fearless spirit of devoting yourself to art, but you dare to make fun of your boss. When the bonus is issued at the end of the year, there will be time for you to cry!" Li Xuan pretended to be dissatisfied said.

At this time, Zeng Zhiwei arranged for an assistant director to take his place and continue shooting, while he personally accompanied Li Xuan and Zhou Liang Shuyi into a nearby lounge.

"Taking advantage of the fact that Hong Kong's land prices have plummeted, our group is preparing to negotiate with the Hong Kong government, hoping to buy a piece of land in Tseung Kwan O at a lower price and use it to build our own studio!" Zhou Liang Shuyi quickly explained her intentions, "The group Recently, the financial situation is relatively loose, and we have obtained a lot of credit from banks. We feel that the Hong Kong film industry is entering a golden period, so we decided to build a large-scale film and television city!

Now Hong Kong's largest Liangjia studios are Shaw Brothers' Clear Water Bay Studios and Golden Harvest Films' Axe Mountain Studios. The studios of these two companies will give priority to the shooting of their own films~www.readwn.com~ In recent years, the production and sales of the Hong Kong film industry have been booming, especially in the summer and New Years.

Under the deliberate embarrassment of Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers, a large number of newly opened film companies made it difficult for the films to catch up with the good schedule. Because the studio built by ATV, while satisfying its own TV series and movie shooting, will not set any obstacles for foreign film companies! "

With the gradual stabilization of the ATV ratings, it is now on an equal footing with TVB. Especially in TV series, ATV can create a batch of high-quality series every year, which has gradually formed a reputation among the audience. However, ATV has been renting other studios to shoot, which obviously restricts the future development of the production department, especially ATV's two major productions every year, and the existing studios are difficult to meet the requirements of excellence.

So as early as the beginning of last year, there was a call for ATV to build its own studio. But at that time, it was when Hong Kong's land prices rose to the highest point. Li Xuan obviously would not apply for land at this time, so he suppressed the matter.

"Where are you going to choose the address? What is the price of land?" Li Xuan asked.

Land prices in Hong Kong have collapsed since September last year, and he will naturally not intervene in this matter. On the contrary, he will support it, because it sends a signal. (To be continued..)
