After the Cannes Film Festival, Cong Shan and Zhang Yimou returned to the mainland, while Xiang Nan returned to Xiangjiang.

At this time, Wang Jing's new film "Chasing Girls in Hardcover" is being screened.

He actually wanted to make this movie two years ago. However, he was taken by Xiang Nan to shoot "Best Partner 3" at that time, so he put it on hold.

At the beginning of this year, he relaunched the project and also cast Chow Yun-fat, who became a hit last year with "A Better Tomorrow," to star.

Coupled with the addition of actors such as Chen Baixiang and Feng Laofan, as well as beauties such as Zhang Manyu and Jiang Liping, this movie has a very good box office.

The final box office was over HK$21 million, ranking ninth in the annual box office rankings, which is a pretty good result.

"Zombie Family" directed by Liu Guanwei has also been released some time ago.

Starring two popular stars, Lin Zhengying and Canadian Yuan Biao, coupled with the comedy performances of Lou Nanguang, Curry and other green actors, as well as the cute little zombie, "Zombie Family" has also done well at the box office after its release.

The final box office was over 17 million Hong Kong dollars, which is pretty good.

…

"Mr. Ning, congratulations, you have achieved another success at the Cannes Film Festival." Wang Jing cupped her hands and smiled, "The jury award is really amazing!"

"Thank you." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter if you win or not, as long as you make more money at the box office, it will be good."

"Hey, you're right, I think so too." When Wang Jing heard this, he immediately laughed.

"So do you have any new plans?" Xiang Nan asked curiously.

"I'm going to change the subject, Mr. Ning. I want to make a movie about treasure hunting. What do you think?" Wang Jing asked with a smile.

In recent years, whether in Hollywood or Hong Kong, movies with the theme of treasure hunting have been very popular. For example, "Raiders of the Lost Ark" starring Harrison Ford, "Brothers of the Dragon" starring Jackie Chan, and "The Nile" starring Michael Douglas Gemstones" and so on.

Therefore, Wang Jing wanted to follow the trend and make a film. He thought it should be a big hit at the box office.

"Tell me the story first and listen to it." Xiang Nan nodded.

Wang Jing then told a treasure hunting story that he had conceived.

When Xiang Nan heard it, he knew it was a movie called "Emerald" that he had seen before.

This movie tells the story of Andy, a treasure hunter, who discovers a piece of magical jade, which attracts gangs and foreign spy organizations to rob him. Afterwards, Andy takes the jade to the treasure cache, only to learn that the jade is an alien. computer...

Xiang Nan nodded. He remembered that the movie was quite lively. It was a treasure hunt, science fiction, comedy, and action... It was just a pot of random stew, but it was still good to relax and relieve boredom.

"Okay, you can take pictures if you want." He said with a smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Ning." Wang Jing nodded.

…

"By the way, Mr. Ning, have you considered making Real Kung Fu Pictures bigger?" Wang Jing suggested again, "Now there are many new stars and new directors emerging in Hong Kong. I think the company can recruit more."

Zhen Kung Fu Pictures was previously considered a small giant in the Hong Kong film industry. It has two superstars, Xiang Nan and Jackie Chan, and the movies it produces every year can break box office records, even more powerful than the New Art City supported by Princess Jin.

But in the past two years, Xiang Nan has stopped making movies in Hong Kong, and Jackie Chan has also gone to Hollywood to develop, so now under the real Kung Fu banner, Lin Zhengying is still popular.

Others like Chen Baixiang, Chung Chu Hong, Feng Ho Fan, Chow Yun-fat, etc., although they have cooperated with Real Kung Fu Films many times, they only signed a head contract and did not sign a management contract, so they cannot be regarded as real Kung Fu people.

So although Real Kung Fu Pictures is making money every year, and it makes a lot of money, there are no real superstars under Real Kung Fu Pictures.

Therefore, Wang Jingcai hopes that the company can recruit more people. Otherwise, it will really become a small company.

"Okay, if you think it's okay, then go ahead." Xiang Nan nodded and said, he wasn't too concerned about True Kung Fu Pictures right now.

On the one hand, he knows that Xiangjiang Movies will only be popular for a few years, and will be obsolete in another ten years at most. No matter how much effort is put into it now, by then, it will be nothing more than fetching water from a bamboo basket.

Huang Baiming once said that he was stupid. In the early 1990s, the two big bosses of Xinyi City, Mai Jia and Shi Tian, ​​both quit the industry to speculate in stocks and real estate, making a lot of money. He was the only one who was stupid and thought that Xiangjiang Film had a future. . As a result, after persisting for more than 20 years, the market situation worsened year by year, and I regretted not exiting earlier.

On the one hand, even if Xiangjiang Movie becomes more popular, the total box office will only be 100 or 200 million U.S. dollars, which is not as good as the box office of Xiang Nan's Hollywood movie. After a year of hard work, he can only earn tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars. Xiang Nan now has a big business. Big, I have long stopped taking it seriously.

"Director Wang, you are more attentive to this company than me, and I will have to work more hard on you in the future." Xiang Nan added, "In this case, I will add a new title to you, General Manager of Real Kung Fu Pictures, with an annual salary of one million Hong Kong dollars. , plus an annual 10% equity dividend.”

He knew that in addition to being a shrewd director, Wang Jing was also a successful businessman. He had established Jingyi Pictures, Wang Jing Studio, and Best Partner Film Company... to make real kung fu movies. If the business is handed over to him, Xiang Nan believes that he can manage it well.

To put it bluntly, even if his management is not good, there is Jiahe beside him, and he will not watch him act randomly.

Wang Jing was pleasantly surprised when he saw that Xiang Nan had entrusted the company to him, not only with an annual salary of one million Hong Kong dollars, but also a 10% equity dividend.

The current profit of Zhaozhen Kung Fu Pictures is two to three million Hong Kong dollars per dividend. In this way, he is equivalent to earning an extra three to four million Hong Kong dollars a year, which is equivalent to his salary for making four or five movies.

Of course he would be happy for it to be so easy for him.

"Mr. Ning, are you serious? Do you really leave the company to me?" he asked happily.

"Don't be so petty. With a business worth tens of millions, how can I still coax you?" Xiang Nan complained.

Wang Jing chuckled and scratched his head.

That's right. Xiang Nan earns hundreds of millions of dollars a year in Hollywood. Tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars, in other people's eyes, is really a small business. People can make movies and invest 70 to 80 million Hong Kong dollars.

"Then I would like to thank you first. Don't worry, I will take good care of the company." Wang Jing promised.

"Yeah." Xiang Nan nodded.

Subsequently, Xiang Nan and Wang Jing signed a letter of appointment, officially hiring Wang Jing as general manager.

After all, no matter how nice the words are, they are not as reassuring as the words in black and white.

…

"Miss Li, you are truly worthy of being elected as the Asian sister champion." Xiang Nan said to Lizhi with a smile.

In 1985, ATV also launched a beauty contest like TVB. The first champion was Li Yanshan, and the second champion was Li Zhi.

Not only did she have gorgeous facial features, but she also had a hot figure. Therefore, she was regarded as a seed contestant and a favorite as soon as she entered the competition. After being elected as the Asian sister, naturally there were even more flowers and applause.
