Chapter 392: The Treasure in Kung Fu Yoga

Ghost films are another major signature genre movies in Hong Kong, and ghost films are still divided into many genres: zombie films, ghost films, comedy ghost films, kung fu ghost films, love ghost films, etc., Xu Ke's "A Chinese Ghost Story", Lin Zhengying's "Mr. Zombie" series, Hong Jinbao's "Scary" series, as well as such as "Ghost Mission", "Ghost Ballroom", "Ghost Overlord Flower" and so on.

On this theme, Wang Zifan has not made a decision for a long time, in fact, Hong Kong's ghost films, like other types of films, can go into decline is also self-inflicted, following the trend of shooting is the biggest vice, constantly shoddy and ruining an originally good idea, ghost films have rarely come out so far, but some horror films that pretend to be ghosts are still screaming on the screen, but they are far less violent and terrifying than ghost movies.

On November 10, 1988, the "Film Censorship Bill 1988" came into effect, and the noun entry of Hong Kong films has since added a "***" name.

Erotic films can also be called ***, but *** are not all erotic films, and too many bloody scenes will also be classified as ***, but one thing is for sure, if there are more nude scenes in the movie, this movie is ***.

The source of Hong Kong film erotica generally started from Li Hanshen, and a large number of Fengyue films he shot in the 70s became the later *** After returning to Shaw Brothers, he had to obey the boss's arrangement and make some movies that he didn't like at all, even if it was a dragon swimming in shallow water, no matter how bad it was, he was also the No. 1 figure in the Hong Kong film industry, his profound Chinese culture skills would not be wasted, and the Fengyue films he shot also had high artistic value, which many Hong Kong directors could not copy.

It's a pity that the current Li Hanshen does not belong to the DreamWorks establishment, when Wang Zifan defeated the Wei family, Director Li Da became a free body, did not renew the contract, nor joined DreamWorks, but was invited to go north to direct "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace" and "Listening to Politics with the Curtain", because of these two movies, many crew actors and staff are also on the blacklist of the Taiwan authorities, and the actor Liang Jiahui has not yet been established as a typical person, and he has been banned for several years, and a single actor has been living on the street to set up stalls.

Wang Zifan did not want to antagonize the Taiwan authorities at this time.

The secretary, Chen Huixian, knocked on the door and came in.

"Chairman!"

"Is there something wrong?"

"Outside, Mr. Hong Jinbao and Mr. Cheng Long want to see you!"

"Well, please let them in!"

"Okay!"

Chen Huixian turned around and went out, during the days when she was a secretary, her horizons were broadened a lot, and she knew many stars, many of the stars who were unattainable on the big screen in the past have now become friends, and soon Chen Huixian brought Hong Jinbao and Cheng Long in, because the boss Wang Zifan and these two are acquaintances, so other arrangements were postponed, and some unimportant appointments were canceled.

Hong Jinbao greeted: "Ah Fan Zao!"

Cheng Long looked left and right, although he had seen it a few times, he still smacked his tongue at the luxury office, this area was almost as big as the mansion he bought!

"You guys are here, sit casually!" Wang Zifan smiled and got up to greet him, last year, the three brothers Hong Jinbao, Cheng Long, and Yuan Di have been staying in Spain to shoot "Fast Food Truck", which can be regarded as a big DreamWorks production.

Cheng Long said with a hippie smile: "Afan, I haven't seen you for a few months, you are still so handsome!"

Wang Zifan quipped: "You still like flamboyant tongue so much, hahaha, you have deceived a lot of girls in Spain!"

"You really wronged me!" Cheng Longguaner, he is a superstar in Hong Kong, but when he arrives in Spain, a strange country, he loses his star halo, and the shooting task is tight, and the language is not understood, how can he have time to pick up girls, even Lin Qingxia, knowing that she is studying in Hawaii, a woman is the easiest to contribute when she is lonely, but he can't find time to visit! In these days in Spain, the biggest pleasure is to flirt with Laura Fonta, the heroine of the Miss Spain champion.

Hong Jinbao said angrily: "You kid is still wronged, everyone has chased him to Hong Kong, be careful of being exposed!"

Cheng Long said embarrassedly: "Don't worry, they are all people who understand, I am just having fun with her!"

Wang Zifan secretly has a headache, Cheng Long's biggest problem is lustful, of course, it is normal for men to be lustful, but Cheng Long has a special identity, he plays a heroic and decent character in the movie, and there are many fans, if those scandals are exposed in front of fans, Cheng Long's popularity will plummet, not to mention, it will also affect DreamWorks, after all, Cheng Long is also a DreamWorks ace actor.

"Forget it, I'll equip you with a public relations team, and if you have any problems in the future, you can solve them in the future!"

Cheng Long was a little excited, this treatment is too special, DreamWorks' strong public relations capabilities, as well as his relationship in the press industry, means that he will be insulated from negative scandals in the future, and smiled happily: "Thank you, Afan!"

Wang Zifan reminded: "Don't be too happy, I can help you in Hong Kong, but you should pay attention abroad!"

Cheng Long knew that this was for his good, so he nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Don't worry, Afan, I understand!"

Hong Jinbao didn't want to delay too much time on this topic, he knew that Wang Zifan's time was precious, and said with a smile: "Afan, the post-production of the movie is almost over, I plan to release it in the near future!"

The movie is naturally "Food Truck"!

Wang Zifan thought about it carefully and wondered: "There is no good schedule in the near future!"

Hong Jinbao didn't care and said: "It doesn't matter if the Hong Kong schedule is scheduled, the important thing is the market!"

Cheng Long was very confident in "Food Truck", patted his chest and promised: "Afan, this time you will definitely make a lot of money!"

Wang Zifan nodded and smiled: "Okay, when the post-production is completed, let's take some time to watch ***, Hong Kong will arrange the distribution of the book, by the way, when you are filming in Spain, the company will issue a bonus measure, the movie will be released, you will not only have a salary, bonuses, but also dividends, if the box office is hot, the money earned is enough for you to spend a year!"

"Great!"

Hong Jinbao and Cheng Long glanced at each other, and couldn't help but show an excited look, they had heard similar news before, but from Wang Zifan's mouth, the effect was naturally different, and it was more secure, they used to be filming in Jiahe, and they only got paid in the early stage, and Zou Wenhuai promised to give them dividends in the later stage, but it was like a castle in the air, they couldn't see and touch it, but it was just nice to say, but in fact, what they really got in their hands didn't increase much.

There is a saying called reciprocating the peach, but Hong Jinbao couldn't think of it for a while, but he showed it with practical actions, and said with a smile: "Afan, you didn't say anything to our brother, we won't hide some things from you, when I first returned to Hong Kong, Zou Wenhuai looked for us and wanted us to return to Golden Harvest to film!"

Wang Zifan knew very well in his heart that since Zou Wenhuai had found He Guanchang, it was impossible not to find Hong Jinbao and Cheng Long, and asked, "What conditions did he offer you?"

Hong Jinbao showed a look of emotion and said: "The opening is 10 million!"

"Generous, huh...... I don't know if it's a blank check!" Cheng Long nodded, smacked his lips, and was afraid of the well rope after being bitten by a snake for ten years, which is also one of the reasons why he was unmoved in the face of tens of millions of checks, and now 10 million can no longer be compared with a few years ago, in DreamWorks, any movie, after Wang Zifan's operation, making thousands of dollars is like playing, in the past year, he has really opened his eyes, DreamWorks has such a powerful distribution system, what else did he go to Golden Harvest to do!

"That's because he doesn't know the friendship between us!" Wang Zifan opened his heart and laughed, this time Cheng Long was very knowledgeable, he should give a sweet date, and asked after a pause: "Hong Kong movies are fast-paced, since the filming of "Fast Food Truck" is finished, there is no need to think about it, Ah Long, do you have any plans for the next filming!"

Cheng Long glanced at Hong Jinbao and said carefully: "I haven't thought about the next movie yet, but the senior brother plans to shoot "Five Lucky Stars", and he shouldn't have time, so I want to make it myself!"

Hong Jinbao nodded, he knew that Cheng Long wanted to eat alone, but he was not guilty, and he also meant to shoot "Five Lucky Stars".

Wang Zifan originally wanted to tell Cheng Long the outline of "Police Story" and shoot the movie in advance, but seeing Cheng Long's confident appearance, he suddenly changed his mind, and said with a smile to Cheng Long: "Sanmao's "Five Lucky Stars" is an idea I came up with with him, what do you think, let's hear it!"

Cheng Long said: "I want to make an adventure movie!"

"Very good!" Wang Zifan nodded in agreement, because most of the films made by Cheng Long were blockbusters!

Cheng Long was deeply encouraged, after all, Wang Zifan's knowledge of movies is well-known in the entertainment industry, known as the hand of God, all the movies he does himself, all the box office hits, and he said happily: "The main selling point of my film is to shoot all over the world, so the investment may increase!"

"No problem!" Wang Zifan thought of "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother", it turned out that Cheng Long had the idea of this movie for a long time!

Hong Jinbao worried: "Ah Long, how long is the shooting period you plan?"

Wang Zifan also showed a look of concern, Hong Jinbao and Cheng Long know what urine sex they have, once the movie starts shooting, the script is basically thrown aside, and the filming is changed while thinking about it, in fact, although the current production model, professional division of labor, and organizational structure in Hong Kong are more perfect than those of the mainland and Taiwan, they still seem to be free to maneuver compared to Hollywood, and the degree of industrialization is far from being strict and orderly.

First of all, according to Hollywood's industrial rules, once the film is started, it needs to be done step by step, and the script cannot be changed at will, and the schedule cannot be changed at will, but Hong Kong film directors such as Hung Jinbao and Xu Ke have very different shooting methods: on the premise of ensuring that the film is delivered on time, they improvise on the spot, change as they shoot, sometimes stop work, and sometimes rush to shoot, which is precisely the most normal style and habit of the golden age of Hong Kong films. At the same time, Hong Kong has many films that are known for their strong directors.

Later, Wang Jiawei took this style to the extreme, it is possible to remake it for a few weeks for an idea, and a movie will be made for several years, which will make the investors vomit blood!

Relatively speaking, most directors are still 'dedicated', especially the stars who lead the starring roles usually have several film appointments and limited schedules, so the crew members are working tirelessly to catch up with the shooting, some directors only have a story outline before filming, and after the start of filming, they can only wait for the screenwriter to pass the script to be filmed that day, Wang Zifan still remembers that Cheng Xiaodong filmed "A Chinese Ghost Story" and Liu Weiqiang filmed "Crazy Boy" and had to wait for Xu Ke and Wen's "Flying Paper Boy".

When it came to the filming cycle, Cheng Long also felt embarrassed, and smiled helplessly: "I plan to finish filming this movie in one year!"

One year!

Hong Jinbao gasped, after filming for one year, the company will pay a year's salary to the crew, according to the current salary level in Hong Kong, plus overseas allowance, overtime allowance, etc., an ordinary employee will have to pay at least 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, if it is an assistant director, scene recorder or the like, it will be doubled, as for the actors, the salary is also several percent higher than the Hong Kong level, counting Cheng Long's own salary, the production cost is at least 15 million!

Wang Zifan has raised the upper limit to 20 to 30 million in his heart, "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother" is a very popular first movie, but unfortunately it is still limited to Hong Kong films, he plans to invite one or two Hollywood stars to star, of course, it is the friendship price of boxing king Ali, so it is even more difficult to fail, in his impression, the "Young Master Long" directed by Cheng Long before is really not very good, and reminded: "Ah Long, you can think about it, this is not a small number!"

Cheng Long pondered: "I plan to shoot the first scene in the Indian temple!"

There is indeed a temple at the beginning of the movie! Wang Zifan was silent, but he didn't know if it was in India, when it came to the movie of the Indian temple, Cheng Long had filmed a "Kung Fu Yoga...... Wait a minute!

Wang Zifan's eyes suddenly widened, his heart beat faster, and his eyes were extremely excited!

Kung Fu Yoga – Hindu Temple – Golden Treasure!

"Oh, I'm rich!" Wang Zifan burst into a foul mouth, patted the coffee table excitedly, and went through the "Kung Fu Yoga" he had watched before He also deliberately went to the Internet to search for information related to Indian temples, there is indeed a temple full of gold treasures, and it was not discovered until the twenty-first century, that is to say, now the gold is still lying there in obscurity, if he goes one step ahead of the 'development', no one will know at all!

Hong Jinbao said with concern: "Afan, are you okay?"

Cheng Long lacked confidence, and said weakly: "If it doesn't work, I'll think about it again, and I'll shoot when I'm sure!"

"No!"

Wang Zifan subconsciously stopped, if you don't shoot me, how can I dig up the treasure, and said with a smile: "It's okay, don't say anything else, just by virtue of our brotherly relationship, I must support you in this movie, haha, who called us brothers!"

Cheng Long was really moved, tears were about to flow out, and he said seriously: "Afan, thank you!"

Wang Zifan smiled and said nothing, of course he would not be stupid enough to tell the news to others, he would secretly come secretly, wave his sleeves, and not leave a tael for Ah San, oh no, it was a gram of gold!

Hong Jinbao sighed in his heart, or Ah Fan is righteous enough! Such a big investment will be given, put it on Zou Wenhuai, at least hesitate for a few years, if Cheng Long has a movie on the street during the period, then there will be basically no drama!
