When Song Zhichao announced that his entertainment company was about to shoot the TV series "Prison Break", and it was filmed on location in Hong Kong's Stanley Prison in a movie mode, and the first season cost as much as 130 million, the reaction of the whole Hong Kong was ---

First silently stunned, then violently boiling.

You must know that TV and movies are fundamentally different things in this era, what is Song Zhichao doing with such a big move now? Is it grandstanding, or is there a purpose?

With the release of this news, Song Zhichao's remarks directly became a "carnival feast" for many news media in Hong Kong--- no matter which newspaper or radio station, as long as they want to get sales and ratings, they have all carried out crazy reports on this news.

Hong Kong's "Ming Pao": "The Song Group is engaged in big things, and 100 million filming is not soft! Whether it is true or not, wait and see what happens!"

Hong Kong's "Ta Kung Pao": "Soong's whimsical idea is to turn television into a movie! It is not easy for Hong Kong to make money, so what is the purpose of this move?"

Hong Kong's "Sing Tao Daily": "Is 'Prison Break' about to change the TV model, or is TV about to break out of prison into a movie? Song Zhichao blew up his eyeballs by blowing water!"

On the whole, many news media have adopted a "questioning" attitude towards Song Zhichao's words; and for ordinary Hong Kong people, Song Zhichao's actions are simply attracting people's attention--- please, what is so good about TV dramas? and invest more than 100 million yuan to deceive ghosts!

But for those who know Song Zhichao and are eyeing him, Song Zhichao is doing this with ill intentions--- it is not important to invest more than 100 million yuan to make movies, the important thing is the sentence "filming on the spot in Stanley Prison", which has a much deeper meaning.

Could it be that Song Zhichao wants to "stir up" Stanley Prison with a TV series and become a "tourist attraction" on Hong Kong Island?

No, it's just hilarious!

Don't say that Song Zhichao's opponent Kang Yongren doesn't believe it, even the bigwigs Li Jiacheng, Li Zhaoji and others don't believe it.

Could it be that with a play, Song Zhichao can turn over, change the image of Stanley Prison, and let the American Disney, who wants to save face, accept the proposal of the Song Group to build a park on Hong Kong Island, and keep pace with the prison?

Make no mistake!

Those real estate tycoons felt that Song Zhichao was really a little whimsical, and couldn't help but laugh.

As for Song Zhichao's group of friends, Fu Jiajun, He Chaoqiong and Liu Luanxiong and others thought that this was Song Zhichao's "delaying strategy", ---maybe Song Zhichao still had some sharp tricks that he didn't use.

But is that really the case?

......

For Song Zhichao---

In the previous life, this American version of the super TV series "Prison Break" was of epoch-making significance.

It was this TV series that made global film practitioners begin to enter the TV industry during the collective decline of the film industry, spend a lot of money, invite the most well-known movie stars, and officially "cinematicize" the TV series.

To be precise, it is to shoot a TV series in the mode of shooting movies.

In this way, the TV series will have the same effect as the movie, which is full of shock and incredible, and the audience can get the same audio-visual enjoyment as in the cinema while sitting at home.

In fact, that era was the best of times and the worst of times.

The good times are because big directors like Spielberg have also begun to put down their shelves and move from Hollywood to the television industry, making the television and online industry explode into prosperity.

The bad times are because not only the Hollywood film industry is in serious decline, but the rest of the global film industry is also showing weakness, and only Chinese mainland films are beginning to emerge.

But now, it's 1996!

Hollywood also rules the global film industry.

American blockbusters are also rampant around the world.

Song Zhichao, who is in Hong Kong, used the method of shooting movies to shoot TV series ahead of time, and also chose the classic drama "Prison Break", which will hit the world in the future.

Song Zhichao personally wrote the framework of the script, which is almost exactly the same as the main line of "Prison Break" in his previous life, telling the story of rescue, the male protagonist planned to escape from prison and successfully escaped in order to save his brother who was framed and imprisoned, and was imprisoned again in his fugitive career, and finally collected evidence to get away with the process.

Then, with the help of the Hong Kong Film Group, Song Zhichao found thirteen famous Hong Kong screenwriters in one go, such as Wei Jiahui, You Dazhi, Chen Jiashang and others.

One of these people is the winner of the Best Screenplay at the Hong Kong Film Awards, which can be said to be very arrogant, many directors can't invite them if they want to, and only Song Zhichao, a super-famous tycoon in the Hong Kong film industry, can invite thirteen in one go and gather them together.

According to Wei Jiahui: "We are all very busy, we have several scripts to do, and there are several scenes to be filmed, but Mr. Song gave an order, of course we have to give face!"

According to Chen Jiashang: "Hong Kong movies have been very busy recently, and I have three or four books in my hand, but when I received a call from Mr. Song, I put down everything in my hand and immediately rushed over--- if it was someone else, I would definitely scold him for hitting the street, and by the way, piercing his mother's lungs!"

According to You Dazhi: "We all respect Mr. Song--- you know, in the past, those of us who were screenwriters did not have a high status in the circle, but after Mr. Song integrated the entertainment industry, his status has improved a lot, and now even many directors and film bosses have to look at us--- this feeling is so refreshing!"

In this way, Song Zhichao invited these thirteen masters, just like King Arthur got the thirteen knights, and with their help, he fleshed out the story of "Prison Break" as quickly as possible.

......

In just one week, the task was completed.

The main story of the Hong Kong version of "Prison Break" after the fullness is as follows: Cheng Jiajun is in a hopeless predicament--- his brother Cheng Jiahao is found guilty of murder and thrown into death row at Stanley Prison, the most heavily controlled prison in Hong Kong.

Although all the evidence points to Cheng Jiahao as the murderer, Cheng Jiajun firmly believes that his brother is innocent. Cheng Jiahao's execution day is getting closer and closer, and with no other choice, Cheng Jiajun breaks into a bank at gunpoint, and comes to Cheng Jiahao's side after being arrested and imprisoned. Cheng Jiajun, a construction engineer, was involved in the renovation of the prison and knew it well, and he designed the most perfect escape plan in history, and the sole purpose of imprisonment was to save his eldest brother Cheng Jiahao and restore his innocence.

While Cheng Jiajun is struggling to prepare for his escape plan in prison, unexpected people and events appear one after another on the road to freedom.

After the screenwriters handed over the manuscript, Song Zhichao reviewed the script of this play very carefully, and compared it with the classic "Prison Break" in the United States in his previous life, and occasionally put forward some of his own opinions in some details, such as hiding mysteries on the tattoo on the back of the male protagonist, hiding the map of "Stanley Prison" and so on.

The blessing of these details made Chen Jiashang and others applaud, feeling that Song Zhichao was simply a loss if he didn't do it himself, he was too talented and creative.

In this regard, Song Zhichao was very "modest", but said, "You know, we are making history." ”
