Zhuang Cheng's New Year's Eve film is called "Family Portrait".
When he was trying to trick Princess Jin, he said that he wanted Xu Guanjie, Zhong Zhentao, Chen Baiqiang, Xia Wenxi, Ye Tong, and Li Lizhen to play the role.
The three brothers lost their parents when they were young. The eldest brother worked hard to raise the two younger brothers. As a result, the second brother did not do his job, and the third brother was an artistic young man. He also had three love lines and laughed and made noisy---" - The eldest brother was hospitalized in a car accident and almost died. The family
The people reconciled as before and finally made dumplings together!
Now that what was fake became real, Zhong Zhentao was replaced by Zhou Yanfa.
Not to mention, this kind of family comedy has a huge market in Hong Kong. What is important for the Spring Festival is the atmosphere, so you can look forward to it at the box office.
Oriental Company has four films this year, "Xin Zha Junior Sister" has been released, "Happy Ghost 2" and "Deadly Express" are on summer release.
"Fifty First Dates" is on the Christmas screen.
Chen Qi will return to the mainland soon to finish the MV and take care of other things.
"Archie!"
He was packing his things in the office when Shi Nansheng suddenly barged in. Instead of being agitated as usual, the dog was showing off.
"Why did you come in without being informed? What did Gu Weili do to eat?"
"Don't offend me, or you will regret it!"
Shi Nansheng closed the door and lowered his voice: "The money has arrived!'
"So fast?"
"Because you are fast. How in the world can you write a script so fast? Columbia is very satisfied."
Shi Nansheng was a little worried again and asked, "Does it count as a violation of regulations if we do this?"
"Illegal rules are very smooth. We are taking advantage of the loopholes. You and I cooperate and sign the book together. Isn't it okay for me to give you all the royalties?
For the script of "Fifty First Dates," Columbia offered $200,000.
According to the current system, Chen Qi can only keep a small part of what he has to hand over. But the scripts for Hollywood must be written in English. Shi Nansheng's English is good, so there will be no problem for the two of them to cooperate?
So the US$200,000 was sent to Shi Nansheng.
Chen Qi dared to do this, of course he was arrogant. The accounts of Gong Xue's injustice to Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers have not yet been settled. Moreover, the country has already loosened up its control, and will allow individuals to freely deposit and withdraw foreign exchange next year. Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other places are pilot projects.
.
There are many overseas Chinese in the country, and the money sent by overseas relatives is clearly in U.S. dollars, but they still can't accept it, so the bank directly converts it into RMB. Then overseas relatives have no incentive to send money, and based on this, they start to loosen up.
Chen Qi left the money with Shi Nansheng and could get it back next year.
In other words, Shi Nansheng was so generous and righteous, but others were really worried about him.
She didn't know that the policy would open up next year, so she just laughed and said: "You get 200,000 yuan per script, and it will go up in the future, to 1 million per script! Wow, I couldn't help it anymore and absconded with the money."
"Just run away, I am willing to do so." Chen Qi said seriously.
"Hey, hey! Don't tease me, I'm really tempted."
"I treat you like my sister, like blood is thicker than water."
The two were joking, but in reality, one million U.S. dollars was nearly 8 million Hong Kong dollars. Chen Qi gave it without saying a word. What woman wouldn't be tempted?
"boss!"
Gu Weili suddenly opened the door and came in. Chen Qi turned around: "I didn't ask for Coke!"
"No, Miss Ling Mei is looking for you!"
who?
Chen Qi was stunned for two seconds before he remembered that it was Director Ling Mei, the daughter of Hua Shuai, whom he had met once.
Ling Mei has not changed much. She is sitting in the reception room, putting the tea aside and playing with a pair of expensive-looking sunglasses. She is a truly powerful lady.
There was no change in her attitude towards Chen Qi. She was polite and slightly enthusiastic: "Xiao Chen, we meet again. I didn't bother you, right?"
"No, no, it's just a surprise. Why did you come to Hong Kong?"
"I'm here to film! I'm going to use your studio for the comedy "Three Treasures in Shenzhen". You are an expert, give me some advice."
"This is no coincidence. I'm going back to the mainland soon."
Chen Qi talked about the Olympic MV, and Ling Mei raised her eyebrows: "Awesome! This event was well done! Okay, it won't be difficult for you. I have confidence in this film."
"Three Treasures in Shenzhen" tells the story of several people fighting over a "dinosaur bone necklace" and finally donating the necklace to the country.
The form and theme of the comedy are quite positive, the level is average, and there are too many imitations of American films. There are Liu Xiaoqing and Che Bao Paulo in it. Che Bao Paulo is the Fat Tou Tuo in "The Deer and the Cauldron".
Chen Qi stayed with him for a while, and Fu Qi also came. Fu Qi's attitude was very calm and routine.
After that, I called Sister He again and we all had a meal together. Ling Mei was quite prestigious in the second-generation group. When Sister He saw her, she became Xiao He. She was the eldest sister.
Chen Qi was originally scheduled to leave tomorrow, but he postponed it for a whole day.
He met Ling Mei alone again. It was like chatting but not like chatting. He said one thing to her: "There is a general resistance to the mainland in the Hong Kong film industry. We have been suppressed all year round. I have been in Hong Kong for three years.
Warning, walking on thin ice.
Part of it is supported by Taiwan, and part of it is because the market is leaning towards Taiwan.
Seeing that the Sino-British negotiations are going smoothly, if the film industry still faces the return with this kind of thinking, it will be very detrimental to us."
"I know a thing or two. Taiwan is Hong Kong's largest foreign market and has a strong voice." Ling Mei nodded.
"To put it bluntly, if we can sell films to Taiwan, then if we can also sell films to the mainland, these people will be united by our efforts. However, the domestic film system is too complicated. Mr. Run Run Shaw of Shaw Brothers and Mr. Zou Wenhuai of Golden Harvest both proposed to me
, can we use Shenzhen, Guangzhou and other special economic zones as pilot projects to open up appropriately.
My official position is humble and I can't do much. I can only serve as a messenger and return to Beijing to report."
"Well, this question is very difficult."
Ling Mei nodded.
Chen Qi asked again: "After you finish filming this film, do you have any plans for the future?"
"Let's see the response first. There are too many problems in the country, and I'm not as capable as you. If I win an Oscar and earn foreign currency, I won't be banned," she said with a smile.
"Don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously. If you still want to continue filming, you can communicate more."
Ling Mei's first film was banned from being released in China, and her second film was banned from going abroad. She has always been very annoyed. The filming of "Three Treasures in Shenzhen" was also full of anger. If I can't make a literary film, why can't I make a commercial film?
As a result, the response was mediocre, so I simply said goodbye to the film industry, and later went to Hong Kong to do business.
Chen Qi knew that she understood what she was talking about.
The next day.
Chen Qi left Hong Kong and instead of taking a plane to Shanghai and then back to the capital, he chose to take a train for the first time.
Get on the train from the red station and ride to Luohu Port. In the past, there were only simple sheds here, but now the joint inspection building is being built. After passing the border and getting on the train again, we are in Shenzhen.
Shenzhen is just a fishing village + a large construction site. The unplanned area has a primitive style, but the planned area is undergoing crazy construction. Just like the sign hanging at the door of Shekou Industrial Zone reads: "Time is money, efficiency is life."
Xiao Mo and Xiao Yang accompanied him.
Chapter completed!
