Chapter 526 Zhou Huimin
"The heavy rain fell on the colorful raincoats. Two points were like chrysanthemum beans, and ten wet horses were covered with colorful raincoats."
In the Yindu dormitory, Chen Qi sang happily while taking a shower. He had forgotten the title of the song and only remembered a few refrains. After taking a shower, he came out wrapped in a big bath towel and took out a bottle of Coke from the refrigerator. He felt so refreshed. Take a sip.
Every time he returned to Hong Kong after a long absence, he would sigh: "The corrupt life of the bourgeoisie is so good!" "Dong dong dong!"
"Come in!"
Xiao Mo pushed the door open and entered the house, holding a box in his hand and asked: "Brother Qi, is this the thing?" "Let me take a look!"
Chen Qi took a look and saw the words "VTech CreatiVision" printed on the packaging box. When he opened it, he found what he thought was an ancient yet advanced electronic game console inside, as well as two game cartridges.
"Yes, that's it. Take your time and make another trip and send it to the leader of the Ministry of Electronics Industry." "When did you get in touch with the Ministry of Electronics Industry?"
"Do you understand this is called cross-border? Go ahead, go ahead, and don't bother me if you have nothing to do. I will have endless energy as soon as I return to Hong Kong."
This game console is a product launched by VTech, a local company in Hong Kong, last year. It can be played by connecting to a TV. Its hardware specifications are very close to the mainstream consoles in the European and American markets. It is of good quality and sells well in Europe and Australia.
In fact, in July, Nintendo's first-generation classic red and white console was launched, but it is not yet available in Hong Kong. If it is available, Chen Qi will send one over.
He should maintain a state of "gentlemen's friendship is as light as water" with the elders, interact frequently, but not beep too much, and keep silent.
He drank Coke, watched TV for a while, and did radio gymnastics twice in the room like crazy. He felt that his muscles and bones were clear, and he was in a very good state to sort out his recent work information.
Chen Qi didn't lie, he was indeed very energetic in Hong Kong.
In mainland China, all kinds of restrictions and a sense of oppression within the system made him tense at all times, so he could relax when getting along with Gong Xue.
"Tai Chi 1" took in 20 million at the box office, and the second part took in 25 million. "Tai Chi 3" obviously reflected the market's boredom, and it barely managed to take another 20 million based on the foundation of the first two films, thus saving Tsui Hark's face.
So far, "Tai Chi" has become the most successful series in Hong Kong.
"Kapok Kasaya" has also been released, earning 14 million at the box office, which is a bit lower than the original time and space. It can be seen that in the short term, Hong Kong will not want to make costume Kung Fu movies.
Oriental Company settled its accounts in half a year. "Life is Beautiful" had a box office of 17 million, and it was able to recover 6 million. "Tai Chi 3" was 20 million, and it could recover 7 million, mainly after deducting the bonuses given to Tsui Hark and others.
Including the previous funds, the total is 26 million Hong Kong dollars. The US dollars are calculated uniformly at the end of the year.
In terms of expenditure, "Happy Ghost 2" has a budget of 2 million Hong Kong dollars, "The Frog Prince" has a budget of 3.5 million Hong Kong dollars, and "Fatal Express" has a budget of 6.5 million Hong Kong dollars. There is also a supernumerary "Mr. Zombie". Zhuang Cheng paid 2 million himself and Chen Qi supported 2 million.
Let’s briefly talk about “Mr. Zombie”.
When this film was shot, Jiahe's budget was 4.5 million. The director was too striving for perfection and kept revising and reshooting, resulting in a serious overrun. In the end, it cost 8.5 million. Now Chen Qi has ready-made storyboards in his mind, so he doesn't need that much money, but this
The film has not yet started, and Zhuang Cheng is still busy with "Two Wives in One House."
And after such a rough calculation, he found that there was still a balance of 12 million, and he was immediately overjoyed. Because there were no additional plans for this year, as expected, this year's financial statements will look good.
"Kapok Kasaya" is produced by Yindu and has nothing to do with him.
When director Xu Xiaoming went to mainland China to film, he would always find trouble. He refused to write a letter of repentance, so he naturally joined Yindu and added another general.
"Sure enough, wealth is accumulated year by year. From being penniless in 1981 to having a balance of tens of millions in half a year now, it is all due to my hard work!"
Chen Qi threw away the information, lay down on the sofa, looked at the ceiling, and suddenly sat up again: "It doesn't matter if I always live in the Yindu dormitory. The Hong Kong property market is about to hit the bottom. I will have to buy some property by then.
.”
Before the outcome of the Sino-British negotiations in 1984, the Hong Kong property market plummeted, which was a great opportunity to buy at the bottom.
In 1981, the price per square foot was still 1,067 Hong Kong dollars. In 1982, it dropped to 664 Hong Kong dollars. At the worst time, a pretty good house only cost more than 200,000. Well, as long as Dongchang had its own dormitory in Hong Kong.
, and the cadre room!
aa nna irna "Archie! Archie!"
When Chen Qi went to work at the Clear Water Bay Studio, before his butt was hot, Shi Nansheng rushed in and slapped a pile of information on the table: "ATV is going crazy preparing your program, but you are not here at this time.
, contact them quickly!”
"Also, you'd better find a deputy. If they can't find you, come to me. I'm not working for you!" "If you become my deputy, the logic will be closed."
"What a crazy line!"
Shi Nansheng waved his fist at him and dodged it furiously.
As soon as she left, Xian Qiran rolled in: "Brother Qi, I've given you the information on "The Frog Prince". It will start filming next month!" "Oh okay!"
Just as Xi Qiran left, Lin Lingdong came in again: "Brother Qi, the script of "Fatal Express" is completed. Do you want to take a look?" "Give it to me! How is your brother?"
"He signed a contract and is learning to be a screenwriter from his teacher. He is working very hard."
However, Lin Lingdong sat down and said: "The actors for "Happy Ghost 2" have also been found!" "Yeah!"
Chen Qi looked through the information and saw that the male protagonist was still Liang Jiahui. This time there were four little girls, namely Yuan Jieying, Bai Anni, Michele, and Chen Jialing. "How did you do it, Michele? She said she didn't want to make movies and wanted to be a stewardess."
"Her family is very poor, so I went directly to her home and gave her 20,000 yuan." "Where is this Chen Jialing? Where did you find it?"
"Her sister is an actor on ATV and she took the initiative to recommend her to me."
Karen Chan is quite beautiful, but has no special features. She has made many movies, including the original version of "Happy Ghost 2". In addition, she also has the representative work "Liao Zhai Yan Tan: The God of Five Powers". She is submerged in the golden age of Hong Kong female stars.
An ordinary member, there are many others like him.
"Okay, if there is really no suitable one, just use this set of troops to start the machine!" "OK!"
When Lin Lingdong went out, Chen Qi looked at the list of actors again and felt obsessive-compulsive: Yuan Jieying, Bai Anni, Michele, and Chen Jialing. These four names were lined up together, which was not the case.
I always feel like the last one should be replaced.
Then, he started looking at the plans for "The Voice of Asia".
As he said, the program team went to various schools to look for amateurs who could sing well. Otherwise, Hong Kong was a big place, and it was very difficult to find them. He looked at a few familiar names and nodded.
That’s right, this is the kind of talent we need! “Eh?”
He flipped through it again and saw a line of words:
Zhou Huimin, 16 years old, attends St. Stephen's Church Middle School. Her singing skills are mediocre, but her appearance is outstanding and will attract the audience. Due to family reasons, the chance of participating in the show is low. She is working hard to communicate.
(Cooling down a cold, I feel very bad today, I got it!
