Hong Kong Entertainment’s Life Simulator

In Zhao's Film Office, when Zhao Donghuai heard the call from his secretary, saying that Li Lianjie wanted to come to see him... Director Zhao was confused for a few seconds before he remembered that Shaolin Boy was about to be released!

He asked his secretary to invite someone in, while he went to get a cup and make tea.

Seeing Ajie and Ji Chunhua walking in together, they both greeted him respectfully and then praised the hurricane rescue.

Just from their words of praise, you can tell that these two people have watched it a lot. When it comes to excitement, Ajie got up and wanted to rehearse the details of some martial arts scenes in the office.

He wanted to imitate and perform various edited action scene effects in the movie!

Many of them cannot be used.

Zhao Donghuai smiled and comforted the two of them to sit down, served tea, and after a few sips, when Ajie tentatively asked about filming and other matters, Zhao Donghuai smiled and said, "You want to cooperate with my Zhao's Pictures? Of course it is a good thing, I I’m quite interested.”

Is Ajie on equal footing with Cheng Long in Amei's video tape market, or is he a gold mine that he got into by himself?

How can it not be a good thing if gold mines come to your doorstep and money is spent? Besides, when his theater chain is launched, he will need blockbusters to fill the theater chain.

If you recruit Hong Yinbao to the left and Ajie to the right, the new Zhao Cinema chain will have no shortage of good film sources.

When Golden Princess was first established, it faced repression from Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest. It was only after the cancellation of the theater subsidy system that countless small and medium-sized companies came to seek release of their films. Suddenly there was no shortage of films. If Zhao replaced Shaw Brothers, If he wants to stand firm, he has no choice but to shoot it himself.

Other blockbusters are also a must.

Li Lianjie took a sip of tea restrainedly and said, "Mr. Zhao, many Hong Kong directors have asked me to film movies in the past, but they all asked me to go overseas and give up my mainland identity. I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to agree to this. I didn't know that your company would cooperate with me. If so, are there any similar conditions..."

After hearing this, Zhao Donghuai felt that fate was playing tricks on people.

Later generations will know that Ajie changed his nationality long ago and performed many strange tricks.

But the time when he changed was in the late 1990s, in his 30s.

Now Ajie is only 21 years old. Different age groups, thinking about things is really not the same brain circuit.

When he was most popular in the early 1990s, he was always suppressed, just like Liang Jiahui, who is also banned now. He is asked to write a letter of repentance and publicly admit his mistakes. Lao Liang is the one who would rather be banned than it doesn't matter. The worst is to change his career. .

Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and Zhao Donghuai said happily, "No, I don't have such a request. Wanwan Market says it's important, and that's it. At worst, the film I collaborate with you won't go there."

Ajie is a powerful tool for breaking into the North American market. It can also be used to break into island countries. The box office there really doesn't matter.

"Whether you are in the system or not, you are free to take any identity. I respect your choice, but if you maintain the status quo, you will have to invite the leaders of the unit to renegotiate."

Jet Li was ecstatic, "This is not a big problem."

This problem is really not a big deal. Whether he can go to sea or not is just a factor of whether he gets the entire remuneration from Hong Kong Island after paying taxes, or the system takes away 80-90% first and then gives him the rest.

A lot of Hong Kong directors paid hundreds of thousands or millions to hire him to film movies, and the bosses were very happy and excited. But once they heard that he was unwilling to go overseas, and if he didn't give up his mainland citizenship, he was destined to be unable to go to Wanwan Cinema, so there was no follow-up. .

Do you think his leader doesn’t want his company to earn foreign exchange? In this era, no matter which leader in the Mainland wants to earn foreign exchange, if he can do so, he will be a little hero in the system.

This is also the case with Shaolin Temple, Shaolin Boys, and North and South Shaolin. A few years later, he started his own group as a director, and then made another film, all of which received support from many peers and leaders. Many people really wanted to earn foreign exchange.

Zhao Donghuai smiled and nodded, "Let's just say this first. I'll think about what kind of scenes to shoot first, and then I'll talk to your company."

"But there is one thing I hope you can do."

Li Lianjie immediately cheered up and said, "Mr. Zhao, please give instructions."

Zhao Donghuai waved his hand, "Don't be so serious. I hope that in addition to cooperating with me in the future, you will also pay attention to safety when taking on other roles. Don't do some moves that are too dangerous. You have to know that Kung Fu superstars are different."

"In some dangerous action scenes, it is normal for a mistake to be delayed for several months, resulting in missed work and time. So you have to go back and report. If we cooperate and sign several drama contracts at a time, then during this period, I will send someone to you During the filming, I went into the set and watched.”

"You will have people help you refuse some dangerous moves, otherwise we are working together to make a lot of money and you suddenly get injured... It will affect a series of major links from production to distribution to publicity, etc."

If he remembered correctly, after Li Lienjie finished filming Shaolin Boy, he was seriously injured while filming Shaolin North and South. His spine became lateral, and he was not far away from being disabled for life. It would be this year or next year.

It took a long time to recover from my injuries.

He did not comment on Ajie's future marriage, but there is one point that is good for comparison. Look at the superstars of his generation, how big is Cheng Long? How much is Hong Yinbao? What about Ajie...

Hollywood is even more chaotic! The uncle playing with guns on the beach is the representative of Xiao Lizi.

Throughout his life, judging from the results, there are a lot of messy news, just like the Hong Kong gossip report a while ago that Ma Sheng was born in a few seconds and the power of ten horses was as weird as that.

Li Lianjie, "Huh?"

Ji Chunhua reacted quickly and pulled him, "Ah what? This is for your own good, Mr. Zhao, please agree."

After finishing speaking, Lao Ji looked at Director Zhao eagerly, with a look of anticipation and desire.

Zhao Donghuai laughed, "If the deal is settled, I would also like to work with Mr. Ji. Your performance in the Shaolin Temple is very good!"

After the decline of Hong Kong movies, the Four Villains and the like also attracted many netizens to follow. In fact, the Mr. Ji in front of me is not bad at all.

What he is thinking about now is that Ajie came to ask for cooperation. What movie should he make, Black Man? Is it too ahead of its time? But one thing is that this kind of superhero story is the most popular in Amei and the easiest to start.

Bruce Lee debuted as an adult in the superhero Green Hornet.

There are many Jet Li classics, such as Once Upon a Time and Once Upon a Time in the Sky. The A-Mei video rental and sales sold for 10.23 million U.S. dollars, and the DVD rental and sales for 3.6 million U.S. dollars, which is more than 10 million U.S. dollars, and the total revenue is hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars.

Even if there is a cost to produce a video tape, and the publisher has to cut off half of it and pay taxes, that's still a profit of tens of millions.

But now that Ajie is 21 years old, can he play the role of the great master well? Can Xu Ke take the photo?

Superhero-style movies like Black Man are much easier to say. Not only did the video tapes and DVDs sell for more than 36 million U.S. dollars, with a discount of more than 200 million Hong Kong dollars, but the acting requirements are not too high.

If we are filming Black Man, there will be no problem if Ji Chunhua is brought in to be the villain boss.

In terms of film remuneration, Ajie's Shaolin Temple shocked the world, and Shaolin Boy is not much weaker. The box office in Hong Kong was 22 million. It was originally the third runner-up in 1984, and it suppressed the fast food trucks of Cheng Lung and Hong Yanbao.

There are 180,000 moviegoers in South Korea, and a ticket price of 20 Hong Kong dollars is 3 to 4 million. The box office of the island country is more than 600 million yen.

Yes, compared to Shaolin Temple, the sequel to Shaolin Boy is in a state of decline. Looking at the world's film industry, there are not many sequels that are better than the original.

After thinking about it, Zhao Donghuai said, "Ajie, working with you is destined to give up the Wanwan box office, so the salary I offer you may not be as high as some directors who spend money on you. I will tentatively decide on 500,000 Hong Kong dollars for each film."

"Is it acceptable?"

Li Lianjie was shocked and was knocked unconscious. There are really more than one person who paid millions to poach him, but that was under the premise of letting him go to sea and give up his mainland identity.

Cheng Long's salary was 4.8 million yuan plus a red envelope after the fact. Ajie, who started his career in Shaolin Temple, is now much more valuable than Zhou Yunfa.

Now that Zhao Donghuai doesn't have those messy conditions, why is he still giving so much? ? Ji Chunhua was shocked and at a loss. After all, he helped pay for the bus when he came.

………………

After Zhao Donghuai saw off Li Lianjie and Ji Chunhua, Cheng Xiaodong came out from the corner of the corridor. He glanced at Ajie a few times before Cheng Sir smiled and said, "Jueyuan?"

"Boss, do you plan to collaborate with Jue Yuan in your next film?"

Zhao is the director, and he is considering who to find to direct Dark Man... It has been decided, considering that in the end Ajie's first movie will be filming Dark Man, to test the waters of a superhero movie.

Once successful, you can start Black Hero 2 or 3.

Or get into other superheroes.

Why didn’t he continue to act in the second film after Ajie’s Black Man? At that time, Black Man's box office in Hong Kong was average, only over 13 million, which was far behind other films starring Ajie, and even a little less famous than the Kung Fu Superstar.

After all, Ajie, who became famous thanks to the Once Upon a Time series, only earned 13 million at the box office by starring in a bigger role? What kind of hell did it look like?

Black Man has no plans for the next film.

It will be a few years later when Hei Xia has made over 36 million dollars in the Amei video tape market, which is more than 200 million Hong Kong dollars.

The videotape market cycle is too long.

When that thing exploded, Ajie started to star in Hollywood. Naturally, he didn't like the Hong Kong version of the Black Man crew, or the money from Hong Kong Island was not enough...

But the company that holds the copyright of Black Man is so promising after looking at the video? Dark Knight 2 came out. I found a Hollywood company to co-produce Dark Knight 2, and then I invested in it without any regrets.

The first Black Man was directed by Li Rengang. In order to increase his fame, the second film hired Hollywood stars as supporting actors and co-produced it, with Xu Ke leading the team.

But it’s obvious that I can’t play with this subject.

Zhao Donghuai also knows that Black Man is a gold mine for poachers. As long as he secures Ah Jie's contract, the action of Hong Kong movies in this era is epoch-making and ahead of the times for Hollywood. As long as the film is good and meets the appetite of Ah Mei people, he can really make money. Quite a few.

When it is released in Hong Kong, we should also consider the possibility of a blockbuster.

Of course, just find an ordinary director. At most, Mr. Zhao will produce a split-shot script. With split-shots, the director only needs to have good skills and skills.

Isn't Cheng Xiaodong the best choice?

He smiled and held Cheng Sir's shoulder, "It's not me working with Jue Yuan on the next film, it's you. I have a new idea. When I write the script, you will direct it alone, with Jue Yuan... By the way, Find Liang Jiahui again."

"If Ajie is the first male lead, then the second male lead will be Tony Leung."

The police male protagonist in Black Man is absolutely not afraid that Ah Hui will not be able to support him. After all, he is the best actor in his debut.

Cheng Xiaodong was shocked, "Wait, Liang Jiahui? Isn't it? Wanwan has banned him?" Speaking of this mileage, sir suddenly turned around and found that Li Lianjie's shadow was no longer visible, and he was surprised, "No way, Jue Yuan Isn’t it possible that he has not separated from the mainland and lost his mainland citizenship? In that case, who will play with him? "

"This guy is quite funny. When he arrived in Hong Kong, he rarely spoke Cantonese and almost exclusively spoke Mandarin. I don't know how many people laughed at him."

Zhao Donghuai nodded, "I have no intention of targeting that small market. This is a tentative film to enter Hollywood. It is a superhero movie, like Bruce Lee's The Green Hornet."

"When it comes to playing beautifully and elegantly, Ajie is very strong!"

Cheng Sir's eyes widened again, and he was temporarily confused by the tentative entry into Hollywood. Didn't he just hear a while ago that Warner, one of the major giants in Hollywood, wanted to buy out Hurricane Rescue North America and Europe for 4 million dollars? All rights reserved.

The boss rejected it?

You are looking for Jue Yuan now, right? Jue Yuan is the image played by Ajie in Shaolin Temple, similar to Zhou Runfa and Xu Wenqiang. Forget it, Ajie, take him to hit Hollywood? ?

After being stunned for a few seconds, Cheng Xiaodong nodded hastily, "Okay, I'll do it. It doesn't matter if I fail. Zou Sheng and Cheng Long have both failed several times. I won't be ashamed if I fail. If I succeed...hehe, even if it's one percent Opportunity, that is also a new situation.”

There's nothing wrong with it.

Failure is a basic act. How many times have you pounced before you saw Cheng Long in his prime? Killer Trench, Cannonball Speeder...Zou Sheng is still trying.

Once there is a one percent chance of success, even a small success, it will be no less than a leap for Cheng Xiaodong's director career.

Cheng Sir has now joined Zhao Films as a director and staff member. He was not poached by Zhao Donghuai, but took the initiative to join him. This does not count as poaching the Shaw Brothers boss, because he himself has not signed a contract with Shaw Brothers. "By the way, Jue Yuan really didn't go to the sea? Give up those in the mainland?"

Zhao Donghuai shook his head.

Cheng Xiaodong touched his hair dumbfounded, "Are you stupid? It's just some status stuff. In 1982 and 1983, so many people threw hundreds of thousands or millions of Hong Kong dollars at him, but he didn't do it yet. I understand." No."

"That guy is a freak. It seems that I will have something to worry about in the future."

Zhao Donghuai vigorously took a photo of Cheng Sir and said, "Okay, you can do whatever you want in front of me. When it's time to start a group, set the rules for me. No matter what other groups are like, our company will treat all mainland and Hong Kong film and television industry personnel equally." ."

"If others prefer to speak Mandarin or Cantonese, that is freedom. Anyone who cannot abide by this rule will be fired immediately."

Cheng Sir was stunned again, wasn't he... But he noticed that Director Zhao had a serious face, so he nodded immediately, "Okay, no problem, you are the boss and you are the best. Anyway, I can speak Mandarin with no problem."

Having said this, Sir Cheng scratched his head again, "Boss, aren't you afraid that Shao Daheng won't give our company a movie schedule in the future if your bias is too obvious?"

Zhao Donghuai was speechless, "What are you thinking? It doesn't matter if I tell you now. In about a month, the Shaw Brothers theater chain will be mine, and I can change it to Zhao Brothers."

"When the demand for film sources increases, you, Adu, and Sanmao will all be the backbone film sources in my expectation. When you grow up, you can be like Jiahe's investment in Baohe and Princess Jin's move into Xinyi City. ."

"I support you in setting up a company and getting dividends and profits."

Although Cheng Xiaodong had already received a lot of shocks before, he still couldn't help being shocked, "Fuck..."

Seeing Zhao Donghuai looking at him with unkind eyes, Cheng Sir hurriedly raised his hands in surrender, "Boss, I'm not scolding you, I'm just so shocked. Shao Sheng, a filmmaker who has worked hard all his life, will quit this industry?"

"No, boss, what is your financial background? How can you suppress Shao Daheng? What is the relationship between Zhao Shipwang and you?"

The four major shipping kings of Hong Kong Island are Dong, Bao, Zhao and Cao.

Which one is not popular among countless Hong Kong people? Zhao Shizeng, please understand?

Hell, he graduated from New Territories Middle School, Parking Boy... Who the hell believes this? No wonder Zhao Donghuai is becoming more and more popular, but about his background and background, newspapers in Hong Kong rarely mention it.

How much did you drink to tell Zhao Donghuai that kind of background? Creating a self-made rich persona cannot be so fake.

When Zhao Donghuai became a newspaper tycoon, he casually cheated big students in newspapers. I heard that he ran away to avoid the limelight. Now when Hong Kong media people mention Zhao Donghuai, the beginning of the basic honorific is the popular sentiment. .

Is the boss going to become a theater tycoon? That’s really the right way to hug your thighs!

Have you ever seen that the countless directors and filmmakers who want to be like Hong Yinbao, Cheng Long or a few weirdos from New Art City are not the ones they want to be? It's too high and they don't dare to think about it.

After a moment of excitement and seeing that Zhao Donghuai didn't reply, Cheng Sir said awkwardly, "Why do I seem to be so excited for nothing? By the way, the celebration banquet... should we still go as planned?"

He just came here to say that the hurricane rescue celebration banquet was almost done. Starting tonight, did he have anything to add?

………………

Night fell as scheduled. Cheng Xiaodong, Du Qifeng, Zhou Runfa and others who had cooperated with Zhao Donghuai all arrived at the hurricane rescue celebration banquet more than half an hour in advance.

Cheng Long, Xu Ke, Eric Tsang, Mai Jia, etc. also came one after another. After all, Hurricane Rescue was the first film in Hong Kong and is now the only film to have a box office of over 30 million.

Zhao Donghuai arrived outside the hotel outside the celebration banquet very early and was happily greeting the guests. Li Guoxing came with a young man and greeted with a smile, "Sheng Zhao, this is Mr. Ma from Oriental Daily. You can be considered a companion."

Ma Sheng from Oriental Daily... is less than 30 years old this year, and his father Ma Xizhen, the drug lord of Yixing, is only 46 years old this year, and he is happy and happy.

Zhao Donghuai smiled and stretched out his hand, "No wonder I feel friendly when I see Ma Sheng, it turns out we are enemies!"

Ma Chengkun, "..."

God and you are enemies. After shaking hands, he also smiled and said, "Zhao Sheng, the fire of your Kowloon Daily has made me implicated a lot, but I am not here to cause trouble today, but I just want to pay a formal visit and get to know Zhao Sheng. "

"The future life is terrible!"

He had already mobilized his connections to investigate Zhao Donghuai when he was suffering losses. No, before that, as soon as Director Zhao's first film "New World" became a big hit, a reporter from the Eastern Department investigated Director Zhao's origins and then reported it to him. Everyone felt that Everything is too nonsense, too fake.

The logic doesn't make sense!

When Oriental Daily suffered a loss and was cheated by the incident of a few seconds, Akun also mobilized his connections to continue investigating and digging, but he kept looking for the origin that was so outrageous and fake that it blinded the eyes...

Forget it, with Zhao Donghuai's attitude of traveling around and always having a group of elite bodyguards, you will be powerless even if you try to take advantage of him.

What if we don’t just engage in legitimate business competition? His colleagues are enemies, and his newspaper sales have suffered a drop due to the impact. But today, at the hurricane rescue celebration party, he really wants to get to know and meet this newcomer to the newspaper industry who does not follow the routine and is younger than him. Tycoon.

"Sheng Zhao has such a big heart for daring to use mainland writers to contribute articles. If Mr. Zhao has something to do in Wanwan in the future, you can come to me. I also have some connections there."

As soon as these words came out, Director Zhao also felt Ma Chengkun's sincerity, not bad? Of course, this could also be a casual remark by the other party.

As for submissions from mainland writers, everyone who needs to know is already aware. After all, the newspapers that solicited submissions through the Yangma platform were from Oriental newspapers... Even if he offered Ni Frame 500 yuan per thousand words to solicit submissions, he would not dare to use those from the mainland.

The two old horses were still eating in Wanwan, he didn't dare to cheat his father.

Thinking of this, Zhao Donghuai suddenly smiled and said, "Sheng Ma, are you interested in cooperation?"

Ma Chengkun was stunned, "Me? Making movies? I don't have that talent."

Zhao Donghuai laughed, "I mean cooperation between our two newspapers."

Ma Chengkun, "..."

After being stunned for a few seconds, he looked at Li Guoxing again and said with a smile, "Then I will go in first and not disturb Zhao Sheng's work. We will discuss the cooperation in detail later."

After speaking with a smile, he was welcomed into the hall by other people from Zhao's Pictures. After sitting down at the table, Ma Chengkun looked at Li Guoxing curiously, "Brother Xing, is this guy easy to talk to?"

Ah Xing laughed, "It's not a secret. As long as you give enough money, just say, I gave New World East Asia 15 million in addition to the mainland and Southeast Asia distribution rights, and Hurricane Rescue 20 million."

"With the money in hand, we can bundle some junk films and sell them together. Not only will we make money, but it will also help my company build a brand name."

"Now our cooperation is quite smooth."

Zhao Donghuai made a name for Zhao Pictures with the two dramas New World and Hurricane Rescue, as did Li Guoxing on the distribution side.

Ma Chengkun thought about it and was a little curious. Zhao Donghuai came to him to talk about newspaper cooperation and what kind of cooperation it would be.

He said before that if Zhao Donghuai encounters trouble in Wanwan, he can help, which is a certain degree of politeness. He will definitely not mind selling small things to the new newspaper tycoon to save face for his colleagues.

He doesn't do big things for free.

But if Zhao Donghuai wants to cooperate with him and it can really be mutually beneficial, then even if something big happens, he will do things for money or fame.

Ma Chengkun still has deep connections in the newspaper industry. Oriental Daily has been around for so many years, and the anti-fan newspapers and anti-fan horses in the early years have gradually been cleared up.

The one who beat him up for no reason didn't even say anything, but he was asking for cooperation...

Thinking of this, he looked around again and lowered his voice, "Do you think Mr. Zhao was sponsored by the Zhao Shipwang family or from the north? The negotiations are about to come to a conclusion."

Li Guoxing was speechless and nodded after being silent for a while, "Everyone is already up. I know that he often cooperates with the mainland and recruits people very aggressively. However, as long as it is not a direct release of films starring Jet Li and others, things must still be done."

"It's not a bad thing to have more friends."

Li Guoxing is of the second generation. Many of the older generation do things based on the direction of the wind and play both sides. Naturally, he understands this.

As for Zhao Donghuai’s life experience, which everyone can find out on the surface, really... no one believes that someone who has never been exposed to movies can start filming his first movie and win the box office? The logic doesn't make sense.

Ma Chengkun nodded, "If my Oriental Daily cooperates with his Kowloon Daily for a long time, once the alliance is formed, the momentum may have the effect of one plus one being greater than two."

Li Guoxing was speechless, "You really don't mind being tricked for no reason?"

Ma Chengkun rolled his eyes wildly, "The Kwun Tong Industrial Newspaper was smashed and burned. An insider could tell that it was set up for candid photography, but no one outside the world believed me. If I do something, it will only deepen the audience's misunderstanding, which is really bad. The key is him There are dozens of bodyguards at every turn, all of them ruthless guys."

He felt that even if he found someone to do something for him, he might be the one who got screwed.

Young people are ambitious and take reckless paths, and even those who are in the middle of the wave feel helpless. The pattern of the Hong Kong community where killing someone is considered a major event and no one dares to use a gun easily is simply not enough.

………………

After a while, Zhao Donghuai personally welcomed He Guanchang in and invited him to the table where Hong Yinbao and others were. Just as he was about to go out, he saw a waiter holding a wine tray suddenly blocking his way, "Hello, Mr. Zhao, my name is Qiu Shuzhen. I wonder if I can sign a contract with Zhao’s?”

Director Zhao, "..."

He stared at the waitress for a few times before confirming that she was really the 16-year-old Azhen.

This is a really good guy.

When he went to sign A Min, he regretted not knowing where A Zhen, A Tong, Jia Xin and others were. Can you believe it...

After a few seconds of confusion, he smiled and took a glass of wine from Azhen's wine tray, "You are very brave."

Qiu Shuzhen blushed and plucked up the courage to say, "I heard, Mr. Zhao, that you went to the mainland to sign a love sister. I feel that girls from Hong Kong Island are not particularly bad."

This butterfly effect is quite real.

Before he was not famous, it was Zhao Donghuai who was busy recruiting troops. If he really becomes famous on Hong Kong Island, talents from all walks of life will take the initiative to look for opportunities.

Just like Ajie, if he hadn't learned that Director Zhao advertised for authors from the mainland and recruited a large number of mainlanders to work, Ajie would not have gone to Zhao's Pictures to look for opportunities.

Now, with the popularity of Qianqianquege and Piaoxue, Kowloon Daily is still publishing color photos of various beautiful girl groups... more and more people know that He Qing is someone he specially poached from the mainland.

Everyone has different opinions on this matter, but Azhen would think that Hong Kong girls are not bad either. It is really bold to dress up as a waiter and come to seek self-recommendation opportunities.

This girl, he vaguely remembered, A-Zhen graduated from technical secondary school in 1984. She started working as a model to earn money at the age of 16. She didn't officially become famous until she ran for Miss Hong Kong at the age of 19.

After taking a sip of wine, Zhao Donghuai nodded, "I really admire your energy. Let's do this. I invite your parents to go to Zhao's tomorrow. You can be a trainee at your age."

After saying this, he took another business card and handed it to Zhen, and left.

Originally, Zhou Huimin was trained according to the model of a trainee, and then there was Azhen. The two were about the same age, and they could both be young rookies in a beautiful girl group.

………………

after a while.

The celebration banquet went according to procedure. Zhao Donghuai arrived at the table where Ma Chengkun, Li Guoxing and others were sitting. He was still talking politely when he saw Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua walking in from the gate. Suddenly, even Ah Xing was surprised He said, "Zhao Sheng, Sixth Uncle and Sixth Aunt are here so late? I thought they weren't coming."

Zhao Donghuai was speechless. The New World celebration banquet was hosted by Shao Daheng. Last time, it was this team leader who welcomed the guests. Everything was smooth and smooth.

This time Zhao sent an invitation to the hurricane relief office, so of course he sent an invitation. After all, the film has always been released in Shaw Brothers theaters.

But they said they should think about it and call if they came... He didn't receive a call until the banquet in the evening.

Now suddenly? ?

Zhao Donghuai vaguely guessed something. When he turned around to greet him, everyone in the hall basically walked to greet him. Regardless of whether this Shao tycoon was stingy with his salary or not, he could not deny that he was the foundation of Hong Kong Island Film Industry. One of the people.

Besides, he is over 70 years old!

As soon as a group of people, led by Director Zhao, walked up to Shao Yifu, Shao Daheng smiled and said, "Ah Huai, this celebration banquet was well done. Even Achang came? Haha."

He Guanchang is also over fifty. The last time New World Shao hosted the event, he didn't send an invitation. Of course, this He Sheng didn't arrive last time. At this moment, he politely and respectfully called him Uncle Liu.

Shao Yifu waved his hand, "From today on, I will withdraw from some fields. From now on, Ah Huai, a handsome boy, will fight with you. I am also waiting to see you compete with each other and strive for healthy competition to make the Hong Kong film industry more and more prosperous." .”

There was a large group of people in the conversation, except for Wang Jing who had a premonition and Cheng Xiaodong who was informed in advance.

The rest were confused.

Shao Daheng waved his hand, and Fang Yiwei took out the contract from his bag, "Ah Huai, you first find a lawyer to read the contract. If you have no problem signing it after reading it, the four leading Shaw Brothers theaters, including Mong Kok and Yau Ma Tei, will , it’s yours.”

A few words.

Even though Shao Daheng's prestige was very high, among the many guests standing behind Zhao Donghuai, there were still a lot of people I fucked up.

No way, almost no one dares to believe this.

Will Shaw Brothers Cinemas be leased and sold to Zhao Donghuai? Simply... everyone's mentality was similar to when Cheng Xiaodong first learned about this.

Who are you? Can even Shao Daheng handle it?

However, people like He Guanchang, Li Guoxing, and Ma Chengkun who have certain other visions and insights are the quickest to come to their senses. It is not that everyone can't see that for several years, the Shaw Brothers theater chain has become increasingly sluggish in Hong Kong.

Can we only watch Golden Harvest, Golden Princess, Shuangnan, Anle and other theaters make money? There is simply no market for martial arts films produced by Shaw Brothers' streamlined production machine.

He Guanchang visited Zhao Donghuai for the first time, and specifically pointed out that the Shao family was deeply troubled, and it was sunset. Even if he came to his senses, He Guanchang could not suppress his shock. He somewhat understood why Shao Yifu would perform at the celebration party.

At the celebration banquet for Hong Kong's first and currently only movie to break 30 million box office, several leading Shaw Brothers theaters will be handed over to Zhao Donghuai to take over? ?

This can be regarded as a decent way for Shaw Brothers to withdraw from the cinema field.

He Guanchang almost couldn't hold it back anymore and said it again. He was trying to win over Zhao Donghuai before, but when he turned around, he became the person who wanted to be on an equal footing with Zou Wenhuai? Since Lei Juekun took Princess Jin, he organized New Art City to enter the film industry.

It’s only been a few years.

Why is Hong Kong’s film industry about to change again? However, the first time he met Director Zhao, he easily pointed out the various dilemmas, shortcomings and shortcomings of Shaw Brothers and Princess Jin. What about the pioneering Zhao Family in front of him?

Just by looking at the situation in New World and Hurricane Rescue, you can tell that this is not a case of the Raptors not being able to cross the river!

Hong Qinbao, Cheng Long and others were also shocked to see the handover between Shao Daheng and Director Zhao. It felt like...it felt like they were witnessing the birth of a new generation of tycoons? ?

At this moment, everyone's focus was on Shao Daheng and Mr. Zhao, so that no one noticed. In the corner of the crowd, Guan Jiahui looked at Mr. Zhao standing under the lamp, her legs were a little weak, and her eyes were also excited. Light.

It's such a fucking thrill and glory.

As expected, it was Brother Huai who could always support her. She felt that she was so right to join without any conditions.
