Hong Kong Island, Hung To Road, Kwun Tong District. m.

In Yonghua Tea Restaurant, on the window seat and bench, Cai Zhiming, dressed in a suit, buried his head and swallowed the pork chop rice on the table

In front of him sat Chen Jia and Chen Jiaqing with cramped expressions.

On his side, he was wearing a burgundy sweatshirt, hanging a thin gold necklace, holding the eldest brother's ponytail, and standing in front of his hands crossed his lower abdomen.

"Boom"

Picking up the orange juice and smacking the straw vigorously, the sound is very obvious in the tea restaurant.

"Tsk~"

Cai Zhiming wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, scraped his tongue on the gum, picked up a toothpick from the table and put it on his mouth.

"How is it? Mawei showed you the company address?"

Cai Zhiming turned his fingers to pick his teeth, looked at the two people in front of him with a smile, and stretched out his hand to wave his hand: "This is now the most dense place to go to Hong Kong Island Film Company." The Kwun Tong District Committee members all personally advertised on the radio. Many film companies have settled here.

No, there is 1024 Locomotive Entertainment Company over there, and there are many Wanwan investment companies over there, and there are also four or five companies here.

I went to take a look, and the location of the company is good.

Are you satisfied?"

Chen Jiaqing glanced at Chen Jia, the big guy who had bags under his eyes, and said stubbornly: "Boss Cai, the position here is indeed very good, but ...... Wouldn't it be too ostentatious? After all, under Wu Sheng's nose, it's a little bit not good......

"What did he mean just now?" Cai Zhiming turned his head to look at the ponytail, "You didn't say hello to Azu?"

"Already said hello. ”

"Isn't that good~ Then why is there a problem?"

"The 1024 locomotive said that Boss Wu was not on Hong Kong Island. Ponytail added.

Cai Zhiming pretended to bow his head and turned his face to smile.

"Since Mawei has done this matter, it is not a farewell without saying goodbye. Director Wu is not on Hong Kong Island, so naturally there is nothing under his nose, not under his nose. Half of the road is facing the sky.

On the contrary, Ah Shang, have you two brothers prepared for a new play? I have set up a stage to sing, and the stage has been set up for you, but how to sing, I still have to count on you!"

"I'd like to prepare a film on the urban light comedy route. Chen Jiadao.

"Not bad~ There is a market for comedy now. ”

Cai Zhiming nodded slightly, pretending to be courteous and said: "When it comes to opening, you still have to be cautious." I know you filmmakers have to stick to your creative talents, but when you open a new store, you always have to polish your signboard first, right?

The hottest thing now is undoubtedly gambling movies.

Ah Shang, you should have also participated in the production of "God of Gamblers", right? The box office of more than 60 million swept everything!

Recently, the box office has continued to explode in Wanwan, Southeast Asia, Korea and Dongying. Singapore has broken its first-day box office record......

This is enough to see how popular this drama is. The audience likes to see this theme!

Why don't you give it a try?

Don't worry, I don't limit your creations, I just think it's a little more auspicious to open a business. ”

"But now that many companies are ready to gamble, we are afraid that we will not have an advantage if we are rash competing. Chen Jiaqing questioned.

Chen Jia also nodded, he didn't resent the new play because it was rejected. At this time, he didn't have the so-called bargaining chips, and he didn't have too many real demands.

In other words, at this time, many people are looking at the box office and money, and they all want to make a box office blockbuster. Chen Jia is no exception.

"Gambling films, a branch of gangster films, have an investment of at least two or three million, and compared with urban light comedies, the box office pressure will be great. Chen Jia put forward his own opinion.

"Of course. Cai Zhiming bowed.

He doesn't really know anything about the film industry, so he naturally understands the concerns of the two.

"When it comes to filming, you two are experts, and I naturally know that it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. The movie is nothing more than two aspects: the scene and the actors. As long as there are big stars joining, it will undoubtedly attract the attention of the audience......"

Cai Zhiming said eloquently: "Nowadays, the market is the eyeball economy, and big stars have gradually become box office weapons. If the movie wants to sell money, it can't be done without a star joining...... Don't worry, as long as you want any star for your movie, just put it forward, I will definitely satisfy you, and people will definitely invite you!

How is Zhou Runfa?"

"If you can have Fa Ge joining, it will naturally be like a tiger with wings, I'm afraid of Fa Ge's schedule. Chen Jia couldn't help but be surprised, in this situation, a gambling film can have Zhou Yanfa joining, and you don't have to think about it to know that you will make a profit without losing money.

"What's the schedule...... It's nothing more than a salary problem, be sincere, and run two more times naturally. Cai Zhiming waved his hand indifferently, and said, "I looked at that before...... film, playing the lawyer's ...... Who's coming from the side?"

Ponytail added on the side: "Liu Dehua." ”

"Yes, yes," Cai Zhiming smiled, "The box office of several plays he acted in was good, and he was added well." and Wan Zixuan, who played the villain in "God of Gamblers". It's good to match a few popular female stars.

The lineup is up, and the box office of the movie will definitely not be bad. Isn't Wu Xiaozu a big star joining in every play?"

Chen Jia was taken aback by the lineup depicted by Cai Zhiming, whether it was the other party's imagination or not, but this lineup was indeed scary.

"These actors all belong to different companies, I'm afraid it's not easy to arrange~" Chen Jia reminded.

"Again. You are in charge of filming, and I am in charge of saving up the situation and inviting these star actors to you. ”

Cai Zhiming seemed to be really interested, and took the initiative to suggest, "Do you see if this drama can be placed in Europe, such as the Netherlands...... The red light district and casinos over there are thriving!

The window girl over there, it's amazing...... If you want to shoot it, it must be very eye-catching! And the Chinatown over there, it's really like a bloody storm, compared to that side, although the Hong Kong Island side looks beautiful, but the fight is just a child's play. That is, the people in the big circle can see ......"

Cai Zhiming kept talking about what he had seen and heard abroad, obviously wanting Chen Jia to add these stories to the movie.

Don't say it, what he tells is really fascinating, and it's really a story.

……

1024 Locomotive Entertainment Company.

Jiang Jiahua took off his glasses, rubbed the bridge of his nose, and glanced at the photo of the table standing, on which Liang Jiahui laughed and the princess held her to dodge, and Wu Xiaozu, Fei Cheng and other friends next to him chased with cakes.

Thinking about life experiences, it's really hard to tell.

When she and Liang Jiahui were at the lowest point in their lives, they unexpectedly met "Blowing Water Ancestor".

took 10,000 Hong Kong dollars to find Liang Jiahui to film, and even let her sit in the position of the company's director. For the release of the first play, it can be described as painstaking.

At that time, the group nested in her tube building all day to eat.

Liang Jiahui hugged Wu Xiaozu and the two talked about movies and life together, but her girlfriend had nothing to say.

I still remember the most impressive time, I forgot the specific day, but that time the two went to the rooftop in the middle of the night, and Liang Jiahui came back halfway, although he didn't say anything, but he was obviously absent-minded when he was doing things, and he slipped out a few times......

Jiang Jiahua couldn't help but smile.

The most impressive thing is that Grandma scolded Liang Jiahui for a month and a half...... Until the two moved out there, Grandma also told Liang Jiahui to remember to close the door.

They all say that the past is like smoke, where is the smoke gone? It is clearly hiding somewhere and staying, waiting for you to pick it up......

It's been three years in the blink of an eye, one has become an internationally famous director, and the other has been called a first-line male movie star among the Chinese, and she ...... It has also become a big man that countless people in the Hong Kong Island entertainment industry need to look up to!

"Knock Knock"

"Please come in!"

Jiang Jiahua retracted his mind and became the housekeeper of the 1024 locomotive again.

"Sister Hua~", "Director Jiang!"

Seeing the visitor, Jiang Jiahua put back his glasses, looked at Jiang Zhiqiang and Zhang Jiazhen with a determined face, and asked, "Is there something?"

"Look at this. Jiang Ershao took the initiative to hand the document in his hand to Jiang Jiahua, with a serious face.

Jiang Jiahua didn't ask much, first browsed the content on the paper, the more he looked at it, the more solemn his face became, raised his head, and said, "Is this matter accurate?"

Despite asking like this, he also knew that this news must be true, otherwise Jiang Zhiqiang and Zhang Jiazhen would not have come at the same time.

"What age are we now, and you still use the 'Freedom Association' to pinch us?" Jiang Jiahua couldn't help but raise his head with a helpless face.

The full name of the Freedom Federation is the 'Hong Kong and Kowloon Film Practitioners Freedom Association', and it is because of this association that leftist filmmakers and right-wing filmmakers were officially separated.

At that time, the Wanwan Information Bureau stipulated that films made by non-members of the Freedom Federation were not allowed to enter the Wanwan market.

Not to mention, a few years ago, director Xu Anhua filmed "Running to the Angry Sea" in the motherland Qiongdao, and was investigated by the Wanwan Information Bureau. The play was banned in Wanwan until 2008...... One more thing, this drama has also been banned in the mainland. At that time, Lin Xiaobeard and Muse were able to pass the test by publishing a "statement of repentance" in the "Xiangjiang Times".

So, if you are reborn to make a movie on Hong Kong Island, if the time is not right, you will go to the mainland to film, and you will die at the box office!

Liang Jiahui's "Burning the Old Summer Palace" and "Listening to Politics with a Curtain" were "banned", and of course the Wanwan authorities could not understand that the reason they found at that time was that Liang Jiahui was on the blacklist of the 'Freedom Association'...... So it's normal not to be able to enter the Wanwan market. Although he took off his pants and farted, he couldn't afford to make his pants unpacked......

In 1983 and 1984, the Information Bureau made a series of heavy blows, and new wave directors such as Fang Yuping, Yan Hao, and Weng Weiquan were all frozen in their films.

Not to mention anything else, in 1986, "Happy Ghosts and Ghosts" was planned to be screened at the leftist theater 'Puhua Cinema', but under the pressure of the Wanwan Information Bureau, it had to be willing to throw 1.2 million Hong Kong dollars to withdraw the film......

"The General Freedom Council is now in name only, and naturally there will be no interference. However, there is news about this matter, and it must not be untargeted......" Zhang Jiazhen was full of sorrow.

The Bay Market is extremely important for any Hong Kong Island film company that has a foothold in developing its main market.

As the manager of the distribution department, the pressure can be imagined!

Since the other party came privately, it also shows that the problem may not be principled. Jiang Jiahua calmly analyzed.

"Makes sense. Different from Director Song's domineering at the beginning, the current Director Shao is more tactful......"

Director Shao is the protagonist of the book "Shao xx" written by Master Li Goudan in later generations. At that time, he was the director of the Information Bureau of the Wanwan Executive Yuan. Li Goudan wrote a book at that time and killed Director Shao......

Jiang Er Shao let out a long breath, "I'm afraid that this matter will be used now." ”

The other two were silent.

"It seems that you still have to go to Wanwan for a while. Jiang Jiahua said.

"That's what I mean. ”

Jiang Zhiqiang nodded, "This matter is not suitable for publicity, but I still have to communicate with Azu." At the beginning, he advocated going to the mainland to film, and we all considered this issue, but we all thought that there would not be much of a problem. After all, Wanwan's own directors have all gone to the mainland......"

"Could it be a Wanwan filmmaker?" Zhang Jiazhen said suddenly.

"You mean......" Jiang Zhiqiang was stunned, then frowned, picked up the document with his fingers, and looked at it.

On the contrary, Jiang Jiahua was a little puzzled and asked, "Why do you say that?"

"That's right. ”

Zhang Jiazhen explained: "In 1981, Xinyicheng, which had only been established for one year, announced the establishment of a branch in Wanwan, and the person in charge at that time was Mr. Yu who became the head of the branch. ”

"Director Yu Huanping. Seeing that Jiang Jiahua was puzzled, Jiang Zhiqiang added.

Jiang Jiahua suddenly became the director of "The Wrong Car".

"Since the second year, New Arts City has begun to exert its strength in the Wanwan market, and in fact, there is a hidden situation here. The new art city was able to expand its business in Wanwan thanks to Wang Yingxiang, the boss of Longxiang Pictures, a big man in the Wanwan circle.

The so-called branch of Xinyicheng in Wanwan is actually registered in the name of Boss Wang's Yatai Film Company...... This kind of reciprocal investment and joint distribution has led to the combination of the Lisheng Cinemas Line under the Golden Princess of Hong Kong Island, the Chinese Cinemas in the Bay Area and the Cathay Pacific Cinemas in Southeast Asia to form a distribution network ......"

"Isn't this just the same as us and the scholar company?" Jiang Jiahua suddenly said.

"That's right. ”

Zhang Jiazhen is worthy of being a veteran distribution expert in the circle, and many insiders are well aware, "In fact, in October 1985, Debao and Longtai signed a Wanwan distribution agency, and Wang Yingxiang is also behind Longtai!"

Otherwise, the two families of Golden Princess and Debao, who have been fighting on Hong Kong Island in the past two years, would not have been screened online in Wanwan, and they would have worked together to control the ticket price......"

Jiang Jiahua was stunned.

In the past two years, the new drama of 1024 locomotive has been able to make a big profit at the box office in Wanwan, and the main reason is that Wu Xiaozu promoted the cooperation of Xinbao and scholars, and played the role of leading the party.

"I'll send a telegram to Azu to explain. However, since the tone of this matter is more tactful, I am more inclined to Brother Zhen's analysis. Even if it's not these studios, I'm afraid it's the stakeholders who are behind it. Jiang Jiahua said.

"No matter what, I will personally go to Boss Cai of Wanwan Scholars to communicate. After all, this matter also harms his interests. Jiang Zhiqiang lifted his windbreaker and stood up.

"The current Wanwan film merchants are really menacing~"

Zhang Jiazhen couldn't help but shake his head and said: "China Film, Scholars, Times, Long Xiang, Xiongwei, Judeng and other eight originally continued to try, since the beginning of this year, everyone has pumped hot money to come, some time ago, I participated in the establishment of the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Association, Zeng Zhiwei also told me that this is a feast for all practitioners in Hong Kong!"

Jiang Jiahua and Jiang Zhiqiang glanced at him in unison, Zhang Jiazhen was stunned, and then couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Isn't the initiator his own boss?

"Ahh
