Chapter 457 Shoot at Wanwan Filmmakers (4200+ chapters, ask for subscription~)

Hong Kong, Friday, July 1, 7pm!

Xiangjiang Causeway Bay, Wuluo Cinema, is lively again, "New Dragon Gate Inn" is officially released in Xiangjiang!

"New Dragon Gate Inn" succeeded "God of Gamblers", which was released for a month.

As Wu Jianye thought, "God of Gamblers" created a box office myth in Xiangjiang.

broke the box office record of 40 million in one fell swoop, becoming the first film to break through 40 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office since the opening of Xiangjiang, and it is a big exceedance, the box office of "God of Gamblers" in Xiangjiang is 45.61 million Hong Kong dollars!

Zhou Yunfa has become the hottest star in Hong Kong.

Now no one doubts that this movie will become the box office champion of Xiangjiang this year.

And "Royal Sister", which fought against "God of Gamblers" before, finally scored 17.38 million Hong Kong dollars, which actually surpassed the results of this movie in another time and space, but there was just some more water in it.

Fengge Entertainment once again proved to the Xiangjiang film industry that the iron law of 'Fengge production must be a high-quality product'!

After Fengge Entertainment acquired Debao Haoting, Fengge Entertainment has become a well-deserved No. 1 entertainment in Xiangjiang!

After the premiere, Cheng Long found Wu Jianye.

"Director Wu, I haven't had a chance to thank you well, so be sure to appreciate it today. "Cheng Long has finished filming "Red Fan Zone" in North America, and he has just returned to Hong Kong not long ago.

Wu Jianye smiled: "Ah Long, it's too polite." ”

Cheng Long said seriously: "Without Director Wu's help, I would not have been able to return to Hollywood so quickly, and this time it is also what I mean by my Qiye and Mr. Zou, and please Director Wu must appreciate it." ”

Wu saw that the night was warm, "Okay then." ”

Then Wu Jianye got into Cheng Long's car, and as for his car, he asked people to send He Qing and others back to the hotel, this time He Qing, as the starring actor of "New Dragon Gate Inn", naturally came to Xiangjiang to participate in the promotion of the movie.

accompanied by Wu Bo, Zhang Hanyu, Zhao Zhe and others, Wu Jianye arranged all these people to Zheng Yutong's New World Hotel, in fact, Wu Jianye was originally going to arrange everyone on the Peninsula or Mandarin Oriental, but later Zheng Yutong personally called Wu Jianye and invited his crew members to stay at the New World Hotel.

In this regard, Wu Jianye did not refuse Zheng Yutong's kindness, so he arranged everyone to the New World Hotel.

Shi Nansheng and Xu Yan, who was excited, also walked out of the movie theater at this time, just in the movie theater, they wanted to find Wu Jianye, if it was Shi Nansheng who wanted to talk to Wu Jianye about cooperation before, now Xu Yan is more eager to talk to Wu Jianye about movies.

Because after watching the movie, he realized that he was wrong!

As a result, the two still pounced.......

When Wu Jianye and Cheng Long came to the restaurant, Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang were already waiting in the private room.

When it comes to Wu Jianye's status, if it is simply to get together with Cheng Long and other friends, it naturally doesn't matter, but if it is to negotiate business, Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang must be present in person.

"Director Wu, this time I came to Hong Kong is still the same style, I have already watched "New Dragon Gate Inn" and Ah Chang just now, I have to admire Director Wu's talent, this movie will lead the new direction of Chinese martial arts movies!" Zou Wenhuai said.

This is not Zou Wenhuai's deliberate compliment, as the owner of the most well-known film company in Xiangjiang, Zou Wenhuai's vision is not vicious, he may not be able to write the gorgeous rhetoric of film critics, but whether a movie is good-looking or not, and how the box office is, he can still guess eight or nine.

This had to shock him, because he thought that Wu Jianye would encounter Waterloo in this movie this time, but it turned out to be a fierce shock to Xiangjiang's movie peers, it turns out that martial arts movies can still be made like this?

Of course, this kind of thing is not absolute, otherwise Golden Harvest would not have been able to make a bad movie.

This is actually an experience, and it can be said that it is ineffable.

Just like writing an online article, an experienced veteran author can basically see how well a new book is doing in the first few chapters.

Wu Jianye said with a smile: "Zou Weng is polite, I am also just moving forward in exploration!"

"If Director Wu fumbles, these filmmakers in Xiangjiang will have no face to live!" He Guanchang This is the real compliment.

After a few words of greeting between the two sides, Zou Wenhuai talked about the topic this time.

"Director Wu, Aaron's movie has been filmed, and the Phantom means that we hope that this movie can be launched on New Year's Day this year, and we hope to ....... it in advance."

Wu Jianye understands that this is Zou Wenhuai is in a hurry, in fact, the release time of "Red Fan District" has been set a long time ago, but now Zou Wenhuai has seen the results of "God of Gamblers", plus if Cheng Long has not released a movie in Xiangjiang this year, he is worried that Cheng Long's box office appeal will decline.

"Zou Weng, I think there is no need to be in such a hurry, Ah Long's fame in Xiangjiang and even Southeast Asia will not decline because no new movies have been released for a year. ”

"Actually, you also know that the New Year's Day schedule is a very important schedule in North America, in the past, Phantom Entertainment launched "Home Alone" in this schedule, but this year was able to give this schedule to Aaron, and you know how much they value the movie "Red Fan Zone". Wu Jianye said.

Zou Wenhuai smiled awkwardly: "Actually, I know this, but I'm still a little worried, after all, Aaron has failed in North America before, and I'm also worried that this movie will ....... again."

Wu Jianye smiled: "If Zou Weng himself has no confidence in Ah Long's new movie, then how can he give others confidence?"

Wu Jianye's words are actually true and false, the New Year's Day file is indeed very important for North America, and Cheng Long's "Red Fan Zone" can be released on the New Year's Day schedule, which is indeed conducive to the box office income of the movie.

But in fact, there is another idea, that is, Wu Jianye hopes to leave this year's box office champion in Xiangjiang to "God of Gamblers" or "New Dragon Gate Inn" released now!

In another time and space, Cheng Long's "Red Fan Zone" won a box office record of more than 50 million in Xiangjiang, although Wu Jianye is not sure whether the movie "Red Fan Zone" can still achieve such a high box office, but Wu Jianye still hopes that there will be fewer problems.

And if "Red Fan Zone" is released at this time, it will inevitably have a certain degree of impact on the box office of "New Dragon Gate Inn", and Wu Jianye does not want to have a cannibalistic phenomenon.

Zou Wenhuai smiled embarrassedly, and He Guanchang was beside him to relieve Zou Wenhuai and said: "In fact, we have been bitten by snakes for ten years and are afraid of the well rope!"

Wu Jianye said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm very confident in Ah Long's movie, and I have some ideas about Ah Long's future development, I don't know if Zou Weng is interested in listening to it." ”

Zou Wenhuai hurriedly said, "Director Wu, please speak." ”

"I believe that Aaron's film will be successful in North America, and when the time comes, will Aaron's development route, Zou Weng want to focus on North America, or the Southeast Asian market?"

Hearing that it was about his future, Cheng Long also became nervous, when he just talked about the release of "Red Fan District", Cheng Long actually hoped to be released on New Year's Day, after all, this also symbolizes an identity.

The first movie that he returned to Hollywood can be released on New Year's Day, and it's enjoyable to think about.

After Zou Wenhuai listened, he also fell into a short period of contemplation, he naturally did not think like ordinary people, whether it is to continue to stabilize the Southeast Asian market or to develop the North American market with all his might, as long as a good film comes out.

In any case, there are still cultural differences between the North American market and the Southeast Asian market, and it is basically impossible for a movie to take care of both sides.

"Please also ask Director Wu for some advice!" Zou Wenhuai said seriously.

"According to Aaron's current energy, two movies a year should be no problem, the best way is one in Xiangjiang and one in North America!" Wu Jianye gave his own answer.

Cheng Long is not only energetic now, even when he is in his sixties in later generations, he can still produce two or three movies a year, and he is simply a living model worker.

After listening to Wu Jianye's suggestion, Zou Wenhuai's eyes immediately lit up, this is indeed a good way, although the annual output of one piece in Xiangjiang is a little less than in the past, but it can also keep Cheng Long's basic plate from being lost, and then it is the North American market.

In fact, for Zou Wenhuai, this is just a layer of window paper, and now he doesn't see through it, it's just the reason why he is in this mountain.

In fact, in another time and space, when Cheng Long went to Hollywood to develop, he also forgot the basic plate of Xiangjiang, and later slowly explored this plan.

Zou Wenhuai picked up his wine glass and said seriously: "Director Wu, thank you really for your advice, if you have any problems with Fengge Entertainment in the future, just ask!"

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Zou Weng, there is indeed something I want to discuss with you!"

Zou Wenhuai was stunned for a moment, although he sincerely thanked Wu Jianye just now, but as soon as he finished speaking, Wu Jianye proposed that there was something that needed his help, is this a little too realistic.......

"Director Wu, please speak!" Zou Wenhuai said with a wry smile.

"Wanwan!" Wu Jianye spat out two words.

Zou Wenhuai was stunned for a moment, and the wry smile on his face became even more powerful, "Director Wu, if it were something else, we Jiahe would definitely have nothing to say, but now, I'm not afraid of Director Wu's jokes, due to the whirlwind of acquisitions that your Fengge Cinema Line has blown throughout Southeast Asia, our Jiahe's distribution network in Southeast Asia has long existed in name only, if we lose the Wanwan market, it will be a big loss for us Jiahe." ”

"Old fox!" Wu Jianye cursed in his heart.

Wu Jianye admitted that due to the unreasonable acquisition of Fengge Cinema Line, almost all theaters in Southeast Asia are now controlled by Fengge Cinema Line, but Wu Jianye has always signaled that Fengge Cinema Line maintains a good cooperative relationship with Xiangjiang's film company, so although Golden Harvest has lost most of its distribution network in Southeast Asia, the actual loss is not much.

Of course, it is certain that he has lost part of his right to speak, but in this regard, Wu Jianye has no choice but to say SORRY.

"Zou Weng, it is inevitable that Wanwan's capital will enter Xiangjiang, and I don't mean to let Golden Harvest and Wanwan completely break up. ”

"Then Director Wu, what do you mean .......?"

"I'm talking about the right to speak, in the past, in order to take care of Wanwan's situation, Xiangjiang's film companies often had to obey Wanwan's film companies' requirements, but now it's different, Wanwan's own film industry has actually collapsed, and now they only rely on some literary films to support the scene, and their biggest source of films is actually Xiangjiang's films. ”

"If you Golden Harvest, plus Lei Juekun's New Art City, and our Fengge Entertainment join forces to boycott Wanwan's film companies, then will we have a higher voice at that time, or will they have a higher voice power?"

Wu Jianye's words made Zou Wenhuai show a hint of surprise, to be honest, Zou Wenhuai can't have no opinion on Wanwan's film dealers, as the largest box office of Xiangjiang Films, even if Zou Wenhuai is the top boss in the Xiangjiang film industry, but when facing them, he still has a lot of scruples, but if it is really like what Wu Jianye said.

If the three major film companies in Xiangjiang can unite and jointly boycott Wanwan's film companies, then they will have no theaters at that time, but they will face a situation where there will be no films released.

Then it's time for them to turn to themselves.

He Guanchang said with some worry on the side: "Director Wu, although your proposal is very good, there are three problems. ”

Zou Wenhuai immediately looked at his old partner, Zou Wenhuai has always trusted He Guanchang's ability, otherwise the two would not have cooperated perfectly for so many years.

"One is Lei Juekun from New Art City, who may not agree to our proposal, after all, Lei Juekun also has a theater chain and company established in cooperation with Wanwan film companies in Wanwan. ”

The reason why Xinyicheng was able to succeed was that it sprung up during the competition between Xiangjiang Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, not only because of a series of good films on its own, but also because of its own series of good films, and the most important thing is that when Lei Juekun founded Xinyicheng, he had reached a cooperative relationship with Wanwan's film companies, and it was with the support of Wanwan's cinema chain that Xinyicheng would develop so rapidly in Xiangjiang.

"The second is that if we do this, we will make the Wanwan studios anxious, and they will cooperate with the Wanwan authorities to open up their own film market, and if there are Hollywood films coming in at that time, it will be even more difficult for us to do so. ”

"As for the third question?" Speaking of this, He Guanchang glanced at Wu Jianye embarrassedly before continuing: "That is, during the period of losing the Wanwan market, our Golden Harvest is not like Fengge Cinema Line with Yaoguang Group behind it, and we Golden Harvest can't afford this loss!"

Wu Jianye laughed, Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang is really not a fuel-efficient lamp.

If you don't see the rabbit and don't scatter the eagle, it's them.

"Lei Juekun over there, I'll persuade him, as for the second one He Weng said, it's actually very easy to deal with, if Wanwan's filmmakers can really open up the entire Wanwan market, I think Wanwan will definitely not be as simple as the eight major filmmakers, when the time comes, you and I Lei Juekun three, plus the Phantom Entertainment in North America, can build a cinema line of our own in Wanwan, I believe that with the strength of the four of us, the market in Wanwan will still be ours at that time. ”

"As for the third one?" Speaking of this, Wu Jianye deliberately paused, while Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang had nervous eyes in their eyes, but they pretended to be calm.

"Fengge Cinema Line in the entire Southeast Asian market can be completely opened to Golden Harvest, and I believe that the entire Southeast Asian market will be enough to make up for Golden Harvest's loss in Wanwan. ”
