Sakura Emperor originally had two Wang Bang in his hand, forcing Wang Xie, Tins...

is the main newcomer in the Hong Kong entertainment industry!

It's a pity that these two kings didn't blow up...

"Wuji", forced Wang Xie, was ridiculed by the group...

I don't understand his mind, why don't you use dubbing?

'It's all because of you, it's you who made me stop believing in anyone in the world, even myself, you ruined my chance to be a good person, and since then, I haven't been loved, I've been looking for you for so many years, just for today!'

Coupled with the Little White Dragon incident, the king was forced to temporarily return to Hong Kong and play a supporting role for Fang Zuming...

For the project "October Siege", Zhang Junsheng will definitely not let Chen Kexin supervise the production, and he will definitely not stuff a bunch of Hong Kong stars...

Chen Kexin doesn't know the mainland!

In the original time and space, during the filming of "October Siege", the set was "besieged" by the head snake, and the work was suspended for 7 days, and the daily loss was about 1 million...

This kind of thing, if you find a mainland producer, it can't happen!

Since the project is led by Yuehua, the star lineup will definitely be handed over to Yuehua!

Xie forced the king, continue his "Informant" and "Witness"...

Then go all the way and win the Hong Kong Film Awards...

As for mainland film contracts, looking at Xie Tingfeng's film career, there is really no movie that can be done.

Shangying is planning "Xinhai Revolution", you can give him that film...

As for Gillian, I'm really embarrassed, Yuehua has a lot of actresses, and I really don't have the energy to support another outsider.

……

Sakura Emperor doesn't have much of a film library, after all, it's a rising star...

It was only established in '97!

The mainland began to pay attention to online copyright, and Yang Shoucheng received the news a long time ago, but the current price is not high.

Generally speaking, the online copyright of a well-known movie, such as "New Police Story", definitely does not exceed 500,000, which is ten years of online copyright...

And there are still a lot of pirated video sites...

In this case, Zhang Junsheng went south to buy the network copyright, and Yang Shoucheng was not very optimistic...

There are probably more than 100 movies in the Yinghuang film library, and Zhang Junsheng 'sent' nearly 30 million...

The contract was signed, and Yang Shoucheng reminded Zhang Junsheng 'kindly'...

Hehe, the capitalists never know the efficiency of socialism!

It's like when it was promulgated that non-motorized vehicles were not allowed to go on the second ring road, a group of people laughed and laughed, and they didn't take it seriously, and then what?

In three days, it's done!

I'm not like those capitalist countries, grinding and grinding...

According to Zhang Junsheng's estimate, in two years at most, the pirate websites on the Internet will be shut down...

After getting the Sakura Emperor, the next thing is the Chinese Star and the Shaw Brothers...

Of course, before that, he wanted to meet Fu Wenhuai.

The original head of Golden Harvest!

Among the filmmakers in Hong Kong, Zhang Junsheng admires Zou Wenhuai the most, he not only pushed Fang Shilong to Hollywood, but also shot a lot of English films, among which "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" achieved a box office of 130 million US dollars in the United States, setting a new box office record for Hollywood independent films!

Bruce Lee, Fang Shilong, Xu Guanwen, Hong Jinbao, Man Shen, Mei Gu, Li Lianjie, etc. all achieved their peak in Golden Harvest...

If nothing else, this vision is simply amazing.

Reborn, right?

The older generation of filmmakers are all very respectable!

Back then, the Shaw Brothers were in full swing, and at this time, it was not easy for Fu Wenhuai to lead the rise of Golden Harvest!

In contrast, Sakura Emperor and Chinese stars are both rising stars, and their ability to rise is mainly based on the premise that Xiangjiang Films has been successful!

At the outset, Chow abandoned the big-studio system in favor of an independent producer system, which later became the mainstream of Hong Kong's film production and distribution.

The so-called "independent producer system" is mainly for an independent producer to shoot a film with part of the financial support provided by a company with a distribution network and an enterprise organization. Before the filming of a film, the consent of the funding company is required in terms of the subject matter, script, and main cast and crew, and after the shooting, the funding company controls the distribution rights.

This is where the term "producer" was born. Zou Wenhuai changed the employment relationship with the actor to a cooperative relationship, and the film profits were also shared with the actors.

What's more, Golden Harvest has also established a satellite company contracting system to fund film companies with box office guarantees, Bruce Lee's "Concord", Xu Guanwen's "Xu's", Hong Jinbao's "Baohe" in the future, and Fang Shilong's "Weihe" are all Golden Harvest's satellite companies.

What Yuehua is doing now is actually emulating the original Golden Harvest!

Of course, Yuehua controls the distribution and the theater chain, so that it will not be easy for a group of people to have hard wings and fly solo immediately...

The reason for the decline of Golden Harvest is because the general environment of Hong Kong films has deteriorated, and at the end of the 90s of the last century, Hong Kong films were affected by the financial turmoil and continued to be in a downturn. Coupled with the impact from emerging production companies, Golden Harvest Pictures fell into a rather passive situation.

In 1997, with the death of the second leader He Guanchang, Zou Wenhuai gradually became powerless to revitalize himself. In 2003, Zou Wenhuai signed a relevant agreement with China Film Group on co-production, proving that the old man still has the heart to lead Golden Harvest to a higher and farther place, but Golden Harvest has been losing money, coupled with the loss of its talents, which still makes this old Hong Kong film company follow in the footsteps of Shaw Brothers.

Golden Harvest stopped producing in 04 and only made a living by operating assets such as theaters.

The most fatal thing about Xiangjiang movies is that the local market is too small, and it is difficult to support the huge film industry with a population of 7 million in Xiangjiang, so it must rely on the foreign market.

There are always people who say that the reason why Hong Kong movies are declining is because of the disappearance of Hong Kong flavor, and the main reason for the loss of Hong Kong flavor is the return of Hong Kong...

Let's pull the calf!

The market is the main reason!

At the beginning, the largest market for Hong Kong films was Taiwan, and many people were accustomed to relying on Taiwan's capital to complete a film and make money.

Wang Yingxiang, the owner of Taiwan's Longxiang Film and Television Company, used 30 million yuan to buy the movie "Jigong", and after the box office fiasco, Taiwan's film companies finally woke up and found that it was not possible to go on like this, so they joined forces with Hong Kong film companies to demand that the maximum line be lowered to 17.5 million, but many people ignored it at that time.

In their view, Taiwanese film companies are paper tigers, and based on the demand at that time, Taiwan's film inventory is only enough to screen for three months.

They didn't expect that there was also a Hollywood!

After 90 years, Taiwan began to introduce Hollywood blockbusters, and the powerful Hollywood TV began to sweep the Hong Kong film box office, making Hong Kong films finally come to an end.

At the same time, Hong Kong films slowly lost the Taiwan market, and after 94 years, Southeast Asian ports slowly lost...

Originally, there was still a supply in the mainland market, but unfortunately, in order to occupy the mainland market, Hong Kong films will always only use stars familiar to mainlanders, Andy Lau, Gu Lickle and others, and then mainland actors as supporting roles.

Twenty years have passed, and these people are old.

Coupled with the rise of mainland filmmakers, it is inevitable that Hong Kong films will slowly decline...

……

Last year, Yuehua took over Golden Harvest from Huayang...

It cost 1.1 billion!

The main purpose is for theaters!

Golden Harvest is the largest shareholder of the Warner Show Cinemas Line, which has 8 cinemas and 79 theaters, accounting for about 30% of the market share in Taiwan.

In addition, Golden Harvest has 9 cinemas in Singapore, with a market share of 5% in Singapore;

In Malaysia, it has a cinema chain with 10 theaters in association with local companies, and it is also the leader in the Malay film market.

Let's put it this way, mastering Golden Harvest is equivalent to mastering a distribution network throughout Southeast Asia!
