Chapter 23 The Development of Heung Kong DreamWorks

Although the entertainment industry in Xiangjiang created a series of achievements in the eighties and nineties, and almost became the center of the Asian entertainment industry, the small area of Xiangjiang, the deformity and singleness of the industry, coupled with the conservatism of film and television personnel, following the trend, and self-esteem, finally became a stagnant in the late nineties.

Fang Menghua discussed with Li Ping'an more than once, so that he was more concerned about the industry of Xiangjiang, especially the Xiangjiang Dream Factory, Li Ping'an himself also felt that he was a little too indulgent and comfortable recently, so he asked his mother to help contact a few young people, ready to further improve the layout of his Xiangjiang Dream Factory.

On the morning of April 1, several young people came to the door of Li Ping'an's mid-mountain area together, and were led into the living room by the housekeeper Ma Shusheng with envy.

After the maid served hot tea and snacks to these young people, Li Ping'an came to the living room accompanied by Zhao Yazhi, Lin Qingxia and Lin Fengjiao, three female secretaries.

In the 80s, a large number of excellent filmmakers emerged in Xiangjiang, but to say that the highest achievement is none other than Fang Shilong, but at this time, Fang Shilong was following the senior brother Hong Jinbao and peeking at the three daughters very unproductively.

"Presumably, everyone here will have some ideas about the reason why I am looking for you today, so I won't beat around the bush, Baiming, start with you. Li Ping'an looked at a young man wearing a clean light blue shirt and black-rimmed glasses without lenses and full of joy, this young man named Huang Baiming, has been signing with Zhuque Taiwan for three years, has been engaged in behind-the-scenes work, and occasionally makes cameo appearances in some small roles, this time Li Ping'an specially asked Fang Menghua to transfer him to DreamWorks.

Huang Baiming sat up straight nervously, waiting for Li Ping'an's arrangement. Huang Baiming, who started in the early eighties, has made great achievements in the film industry, whether as a screenwriter, actor, director, producer and investor, Huang Baiming has made remarkable achievements in every field, and his struggle in the film industry has become the epitome of an era of comedy films. Huang Baiming has many advantages, and his shortcomings are also fatal, that is, he can only rehearse dramas, and he is almost always frying cold rice in the later stage.

"Baiming, I will arrange for you to be the general manager of Xiangjiang DreamWorks first, because my mother has too many things to take care of, so she can't manage DreamWorks, I will give you five percent of DreamWorks' shares, but you need to make the results I expect within three years to get them all!" Li Ping'an handed a development outline to Huang Baiming.

At this time, Huang Baiming suddenly had a feeling of ascending to the sky, got up excitedly and took the document, and thanked him again and again, "I will definitely not let you down, Mr. Li!"

Li Ping'an turned his gaze to the four brothers who got together, and these four brothers were the famous Xu brothers in the future. The boss Xu Guanwen will become a famous director, screenwriter, producer, and actor in the future. The second eldest Xu Guanwu is mostly engaged in behind-the-scenes films, photographers, etc., and occasionally makes cameo appearances in films directed by his brother. The third child, Xu Guanying, is a famous comedy film actor and singer in the future. The fourth Xu Guanjie, a famous actor and singer in the future.

In terms of achievements in film and television, the boss Xu Guanwen has the highest achievements, and he can be called a top-level figure in the post-Li Xiaolong era. Xu Guanwen's comedy films can be said to be the pioneer of the localization of Hong Kong films, and he has also become an unavoidable important figure in the history of Hong Kong comedy films. Before Zhou Xingchi became famous, Xu Guanwen was the "king of comedy" and was known as the "cold-faced smile"!

The achievements of the fourth Xu Guanjie are even more reflected in the music world, and he is the first generation of singers in Xiangjiang. His achievements in the film industry are not low, and he has played many popular roles in later generations.

"If you four brothers sign a contract with Xiangjiang DreamWorks, I will give you 10% of the shares, and the specific distribution will be negotiated by the four brothers. Think about it!" Li Ping'an calmly gave his own conditions.

After a brief discussion, the eldest Xu Guanwen stood up and expressed his position on behalf of his younger brothers, "Thanks to Mr. Li's generosity, our brothers agreed." ”

Li Ping'an nodded, and asked Zhao Yazhi to hand over a stack of documents to Xu Guanwen, "These are the three scripts of "Genius and Idiot", "Half a Pound and Eight Taels", and "Deed of Sale". ”

Li Ping'an looked at Xu Guanjie, who was a little restrained, and took out a page of paper full of music scores and lyrics from a folder behind him and handed it to Xu Guanjie, "Guanjie, originally I was going to put this song "Say You Say Mi" in my next English album, but think about it, this song is not very suitable for my singing voice, I didn't congratulate you in person when you signed PolyGram before, this song should be a gift for you signing with DreamWorks this time!"

Xu Guanjie immediately got up excitedly and took the song list, "Thank you boss, I will definitely live up to your expectations." Now Li Ping'an's songs can be said to be hard to find, and Li Ping'an will not write songs for people easily, so far only Teresa Teng has received gifts from Li Ping'an, and a few songs to Teresa Teng have made her popular all over the Chinese music scene now. Xu Guanjie couldn't help but be thrilled after a cursory look at the lyrics and songs, for him with rich appreciation ability, this song is destined to become a world-class classic golden song.

Li Ping'an finally looked at Brother Hong Jinbao, "If your senior brother signs a contract with DreamWorks, I will give you 15% of the shares, of which 5% will be given to you as the senior brother, you will take 5% in Yuanlou, and the remaining 5% will be equally divided among your remaining brothers, and the specific allocation of personnel will be arranged by your senior brother Sanmao." ”

Fang Shilong was stunned when he heard that he could get the same shares as his senior brother, Hong Jinbao was also surprised, you must know that although Fang Shilong is loved by all brothers, he has not yet played the main role in a movie, Li Ping'an can give Fang Shilong these shares must have taken a fancy to his future, which makes Hong Jinbao feel a little jealous.

As an actor, Fang Shilong not only represents the achievements of Heung Kong Films, but also has a worldwide influence. As the spokesperson of Chinese kung fu movies, Fang Shilong showed people the concept of heroes in traditional Chinese culture in Hollywood, opened a window for the world to understand Chinese culture, and became the disseminator and promoter of traditional Chinese culture. As a filmmaker, Fang Shilong has been enthusiastic about cultivating and supporting newcomers after becoming famous, and has made outstanding contributions to the development of Chinese films. As a public figure, Fang Shilong influences others with his affection for the country and his love for society. Under a Tang costume, he carries not only a simple screen hero, but also a role model for Chinese people facing the world stage. After becoming famous, Fang Shilong took charity as a responsibility to help everyone in need as much as possible, and was highly praised in the society for this. Of course, no one is perfect, and there are many shortcomings of sexual dragons, such as liking women and speaking without brains.

Hong Jinbao knocked Fang Shilong's head, "I don't thank the boss for his cultivation!"

Fang Shilong woke up like a dream, "Thank you Young Master Li, I will definitely take you as an example in the future!"

Li Ping'an asked Lin Qingxia to also hand Hong Jinbao a stack of documents, "Sanmao, there are three scripts in it: "Sande Monk and Chung Mi Liu", "Fat Dragon Crossing the River" and "Tiger Field Chicken", you can watch and shoot it yourself." After that, Li Ping'an handed Fang Shilong a script, "Yuan Lou, you will be called Cheng * Long in the future!" You will play the starring role in this "Drunken Fist", and I will mark and write out many opinions and precautions in it, and you and Bai Ming will go to Master Yuan Xiaotian and let them Yuan Jiaban be responsible for helping you guide this movie. ”

After arranging everyone, Li Ping'an took these people to the restaurant for lunch, during which Li Ping'an promised that if these people have the will to march into Hollywood in the future, Li Ping'an will pave the way for them, which makes the hearts of these young people who are still full of passion at the moment suddenly hot, and they are looking forward to the future more and more.
