Chapter 202: How Much Can You Give Me ......?
"Mr. He, I'm sorry, your words may not have time for Mr. He's schedule this week, and it may not meet our company's standards, so I can only say sorry......"
"Is this what your manager means, or what Mr. Xiang means, or what Mr. Zhou means...... I just need to tell the truth, if I really want to contact, I can also find their private phone number, but I am a more formal person, I want to go through your company's process!"
"This, well, is what we mean to the general ......"
"Okay, I see, thank you for your reply......"
I didn't get a reply on the day I went to Xingye's company, and I got a phone reply from there two days after I got home, but it didn't pass. There is no possibility of cooperation!
For this result, let's be honest. He Zilong was already prepared in his heart, so he didn't have too many negative emotions. Even in the past two days, he thought about it and thought that he had guessed the reason why "Journey to the West" was not popular in Hong Kong in the future.
It is very likely that this is Lao Xiang suppressing Xingye!
As a grassroots-born star, from a small person to a legend in the comedy industry, the twists and turns are not so simple.
Xiang Huaqiang's status in the Hong Kong entertainment industry is not so simple, he can even influence the future and fate of an artist, and his words carry a lot of weight. Now that Xing Ye is still working under him, the two of them have made a lot of money by joining forces, how can he tolerate Zhou Xing X to break away from the independent court?
But in the end, after two or three years, Xing Ye decided to come out and become his own faction.
Xing Ye has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his greatest admiration is Bruce Lee, in order to learn martial arts, he also officially apprenticed to learn martial arts, and his master is Ip Man's favorite disciple. With this relationship, in a place like Hong Kong, which is not very big, there are really not many people who dare to touch him.
It's just that it's not humane to strike at the top of the force. Think about it, two or three years later, Xing Ye decided to come out and start a company by himself, and the star who would lay golden eggs ran away, and Lao Xiang would be willing?
Then a commercial blow in fame, economically!
Later, "Journey to the West" was a movie made by Xing Ye to get rid of "Xiang someone" and spend energy and financial resources! It's just that people in the Hong Kong film industry are afraid of someone's power, how dare they say anything!
checked the information, and when it was released, there were very few theaters in Hong Kong, and the displacement was not much. All the media don't hype this movie, it's like receiving a notice and taking advantage of it, and the insiders who deliberately tacit understanding are doing the same thing!
Of course, the reason why Journey to the West can become popular on the mainland.
In the past two days, He Zizai also thought that he had figured it out.
First of all, real gold is not afraid of fire practice, even if someone suppresses it, it can only have an effect in Hong Kong.
Secondly, it is also related to the fact that Hong Kong people lived too fast-paced in the 90s, and the aesthetics of movies were different from those in China in the 90s.
I feel that the pace of Hong Kong is much faster than most places in the mainland, and life is much more stressful, and the purpose of watching movies is to be more entertaining and relaxed. So like a pure nonsensical movie that was not suppressed at the beginning, Xingye's box office in Hong Kong is very good.
As for Journey to the West, the mainland is vast, people-oriented, differentiated, and diverse, which cannot be compared with Hong Kong, especially something like "Journey to the West", which is not bad in itself, is easy to be recognized and liked by some people.
What's more, back then, the wind of big talk was still blown by famous universities such as Tsinghua University, and it was very easy to influence other universities to follow or resonate. Moreover, due to their high level of education, the followers of this group of big talk styles are basically in all walks of life in society and have a certain right to speak.
And in the nineties, the word expert was not yet considered an antonym. With the superstitious thinking of experts and elites at that time of the Chinese, it was natural to follow the trend. Subsequently, the wind of big talk blew more and more, and the big talk fever lasted for a long time, and finally created a classic myth in China.
"Journey to the West" is not good in Hong Kong, but its popularity in the mainland can be said to be in the right place and place, and it has a certain relationship with the background of the times and the prevalence of the Internet at that time.
"The current situation of Hong Kong people is similar to that of those in China's first-tier cities after 201X. I like fast-paced, cool, happy, and overnight rich topics and entertainment ......" Touching his chin, He Zilong began to ponder.
"If you ask Fa Ge to continue to make movies with Shanghai content, it is because I made my first movie and sought stability. Then to make a "Journey to the West" is to pay for his dream of counterattacking as a little person, as well as liking the dream of Journey to the West. But the future situation is unknown, it may or may not be popular. Fa Ge is shooting the same content as a TV series, and it is estimated that it is impossible to make a popular newcomer and his own person......"
"It's hard to say who can make the Journey to the West movie popular, whether it can make a name, and even whether it can make money is also a question mark. Maybe after a while, the marketing is effective and can become popular in China, but it is also a route for time and space. To do things, it is better to think about the worst part first, and then talk about what you can bear, so that it will not produce the result of greater hope and greater disappointment......"
"Otherwise, just shoot three films at the same time, the one on Fa Ge's side doesn't have to worry about it himself, wear some advertisements in the middle, and whatever, plus the name of the screenwriter on it, it's not a problem to return to the original. The Journey to the West movie is regarded as a gamble for a dream, and I am not afraid of anything with this money. And the next one is to make a real name for yourself in making a movie, and if you want to mix in this industry, even if it is a guest channel, you must have a famous work with a name......"
"What is it good to shoot at the same time as the third film. Well, to follow the fast pace of Hong Kong people, but also cool, beauty is indispensable, it is best to get rich overnight, to give them a sense of substitution. Well, there it is. In 2018, there was a movie in China "Xihong City's First Negative (Rich)", which seemed to become famous in one fell swoop, in line with all the special just now, and with a funny style, and the box office revenue seemed to be billions at that time......
He Zilong slapped his thigh and suddenly had an idea.
Opening the map, He Zilong checked the map of Hong Kong and found that there are 18 districts in Hong Kong. If the main Hong Kong story is used instead, then for the time being, we can't use the city, but the district. is called (the richest man in Xihong City), and naturally he is the richest man in the district in this movie.
"Central and Western District, Wan Chai District, Eastern District, Southern District, no, these are all rich areas. Not to mention spending one billion, even if it is raised to 10 billion in the movie, it is estimated that the protagonist can easily spend it according to common sense. Kowloon Peninsula: Yau Tsim Mong District, Sham Shui Po District, Kowloon City District, Wong Tai Sin District, Kwun Tong District, these are not distinctive. Well, there you have it, Sha Tin is good......"
Sha Tin District is part of Hong Kong and there are four light industrial zones in Sha Tin District, namely Tai Wai, Fo Tan, Siu Lek Yuen and Shek Mun. Sha Tin District is located in the north of Kowloon City and south of Tai Po District, and mainly includes Tai Wai, Sha Tin, Fo Tan, Ma Liu Shui, Shing Mun East and Ma On Shan. Sha Tin is a representative area that has developed rapidly in the past 15 years!
Moreover, it is very Hong Kong!
