"The Voice" aired smoothly, and "Happy Ghost 2" and "The Frog Prince" went well.
Chen Qi comes back to pay attention to the movie.
"Happy Ghost" has been released for nearly a month and has been released with a record of 21 million, which is 4 million more than the original version.
The next one was Li Hanxiang's "The Burning of Old Summer Palace". He spent hundreds of thousands to build a real water scene, and then burned it on fire. This became a promotional selling point. Li Hanxiang is a great director in Hong Kong, and his quality is guaranteed.
The audience goes to see it.
The box office is not bad, it will definitely exceed 10 million.
Ever since, starting from "Life Is Beautiful" in April, there have been five consecutive left-wing dramas that have exceeded 10 million, which is unprecedented. There are also "The Curtain", "Shanghai Nights" and "The Frog Prince" to follow, which may reach an even more exaggerated record.
Eight consecutive dramas have exceeded 10 million!
The Hong Kong film industry has been numbed by the impact, which also shows that the market is getting hotter and hotter, and many bosses are preparing to quit. New companies are opening every quarter, and people inside and outside the industry are discussing it all the time.
Just like the short dramas of later generations, the hot ones have already reached the market of middle-aged and elderly women, such as "The Domineering President Falls in Love with the Menopausal Me", "The 27-year-old Boss Falls in Love with the 46-year-old Cleaner" and so on...
Some of these news are known to everyone, and some are not, but for the White Dragon King of Hong Kong, there are no secrets in the Hong Kong entertainment industry! Jiahe.
As soon as he came to the company that day, Zou Wenhuai saw a strange yet familiar red envelope on the table. He had seen this thing before. Mr. Chen, who had just arrived in Xiangjiang, had many birth and death talismans, and he also gave one to Jiahe.
"Why are you doing this again?"
He frowned and opened it, but it was still the same. There was a card inside, with the name of the company prefixed with Chinese characters. There were two lines of words written on it.
"Invite me to talk? What can we talk about?"
He was puzzled and called He Guanchang. He Guanchang was also surprised: "The leftists haven't done much recently. They just played movies. Could it be related to Aaron?" "I don't know, let's meet him."
"Where is the arrangement?"
"The room where he met Aaron and Sanmao last time." "Do you want to call someone for protection?" He Guanchang was a little worried.
"That Mr. Chen is ruthless and overbearing in his actions, but he also adheres to the moral principles of the world and will not do anything to me. Furthermore, if he really wants to do something to me, who can stop him?"
Zou Wenhuai lit a cigar and said: "The British are still negotiating with the mainland. There is a high probability that Hong Kong will not be saved. I now understand that Mr. Chen is the cultural pioneer of the mainland. Come here first to clean up the industry. Later,
That’ll be easier to handle.”
"Who cares if they don't pioneer first? They don't open the market and they don't make money, so they want us to join the Communist Party?" He Guanchang shrugged and went to make arrangements.
It's night in the blink of an eye.
A Wanshi De stopped at the door of a hotel. Chen Qi got out, Xiao Yang stayed in the car as usual, and Xiao Mo followed. When they got to the room, as soon as the door opened, Xiao Mo took a quick glance and confirmed that there was only Zou Wenhuai inside.
Stay outside.
Zou Wenhuai is only in his 50s, and his hair has not even turned gray.
"Mr. Chen, "Happy Ghost" is a hit, congratulations!" "Don't take it for granted, the five lucky stars are the most powerful."
"It's just a fluke. Maybe it will be like last year, when "The Love of Ghosts" is released on Christmas and everyone rushes to the street."
The two of them exchanged a few polite words and sat down. Chen Qi got straight to the point: "I made an appointment with Boss Zou to discuss important matters. There are four theaters in Yindu, Shaw Brothers, Jiahe, and Golden Princess. Shaw Brothers will die sooner or later, and Golden Princess is in a low mood.
, Xinyi City was demolished, cutting off their biggest film source, and their results this year are terrible, why not beat up the fallen dog to avoid future troubles?"
"Want to hear the details!"
"It's simple, if Princess Jin doesn't have any movies to show, she can't make money, then she will naturally break up.
New Arts City is still breathing its last breath. After all, Mai Jia is considered a talent. He is on good terms with Hong Jinbao. You might as well make a movie and ask Mai Jia to act. He is a money-minded person and will most likely agree.
Once the wheat harvest is gone, the trees in Xinyi City will fall and the hozens will scatter, and they will surely die.
The remaining Huang Baiming is very capable and can take charge of his own business. Why not Boss Zou personally come forward and open a satellite company for him? He can not only kill Princess Jin but also enhance his own strength. Why not?"
he...tui!
That is to say, Zou Wenhuai is deep in the city, otherwise he would just spit. I have never seen such a shameless person!
What do you mean? Daqing means asking Jiahe to poach employees at a high price and take away Mai Jia and Huang Baiming. The leftists do nothing and just sit back and enjoy the gains, right?
"Mr. Chen is joking! Since Xinyi City is on the verge of collapse, why should I bother poaching people? Just wait for them to attack on their own. Huang Baiming is indeed talented, but Jiahe is developing well and has strong troops, so there is no urgent need for this person."
"Jiahe is indeed a strong army and a strong horse!"
Chen Qi nodded and said with a smile: "Xu Guanwen's style is unparalleled in Hong Kong, but the production of films is too slow, and it only takes a few years to make one. Cheng Long is a superstar, but he is in the process of transformation and has begun to strive for excellence, so he can't talk about output.
Hong Jinbaoneng is capable of directing and planning, with high output and guaranteed standards. He can be called the most handsome talent in Jiahe."
He complimented him a lot, then changed his tone and asked: "Boss Zou, do you know this person Pan Disheng?" "Pan Disheng?"
Zou Wenhuai was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment and said, "The one who specializes in famous brands? What's wrong with him?" "How's his financial resources?"
"You can be called a rich man."
"Then do you know that Pan Disheng, Shun Jianxun, and Hong Jinbao are plotting to cooperate and open a new company?" "What?!"
Zou Wenhuai was startled, and then looked at the other party suspiciously. Chen Qi continued: "You can find out for yourself later. Let me tell you first. Pan Disheng is rich, Cen Jianxun has the vision to understand business, and Hong Jinbao is in charge of production. The three of them are a perfect combination.
They have the potential to become a big company, and they can even consolidate scattered theaters and create one more theater chain.
Of course, Hong Jinbao will not abandon Jiahe, but he is distracted and will inevitably affect your production. Huang Baiming can just fill the vacancy, do you think Jiahe needs it?" Jiahe is manufactured by a satellite company.
Opening a company for Hong Jinbao does not mean that he is tied to Jiahe, and he is free as an individual. Moreover, he is so good at the box office that Zou Wenhuai has to coax him.
Chen Qi added: "Xinyi City collapsed, Huang Baiming left, and Princess Jin no longer has high-quality film sources. Princess Jin has 16 theaters in her hands. Boss Zou, are you not tempted? Or do you think Jiahe's theaters are enough?"
Zou Wenhuai raised his head and looked at this cruel guy.
No matter how hard the Hong Kong film industry fought in the past, what they ultimately competed for was the box office, and not even other theater chains wanted to do it. Because each company has its own theater chain, there is no need to worry about others. "I poach people, what do you do?
"
"I'm going to beat Dickson Pan!"
Chen Qi suddenly sighed and said: "The Hong Kong market is too small to accommodate so many people. If one less company makes money, we will make more. In my opinion, retaining two big companies and adding some independent production companies will be enough."
.
There are also those Western film theaters that do not need to exist and will be integrated sooner or later."
*..*
Zou Wenhuai didn't say anything, but he confirmed his thoughts in his heart: I'll just say it, I'll say it, he is a pioneer sent from the mainland, clean up the film industry first, oh no, reform it through socialism first!
Chapter completed!
