Chapter 628: The Beginning of the Era
It's a pity that although Li Xu really wants to see it right away, there is no fast-forward button in his golden finger, so he has to wait honestly until the second half of the year, just like he is still laying the foundation for the future.
However, after this matter is dealt with, you can basically go north, and there is no need to worry about the release of "God of Gamblers", Wang Jing's signboard is placed there, even if this signboard is erected because of Li Xu's support - this is also the reason why Lin Fengjiao and Zhang Meng came to Hong Kong.
And Zhang Yanyu's cultivation has just begun, after all, the things she has experienced are completely different from another time and space, and appropriate stimulation is beneficial.
Of course, some of the hands still have to be dealt with, such as what I said before, when I attended the Hong Kong Governor's dinner, I mentioned this movie to Wilsson.
The ICAC commissioner's nod is just the beginning, after all, it involves a lot of government parts, and it is one thing to shoot behind closed doors, and it is another thing to borrow venue props and need the support of the Hong Kong government.
The U.S. Department of Defense has a special counterpart to Hollywood, and if you want to get official support, you have to revise the script to their satisfaction, and the British government will not fail to use it, even if it is a colonial government, so Li Xu asked Zeng Huaqian to make certain changes to the plot of "Ace vs. Ace" early.
As for the effect, Wei Yixin felt pretty good after listening to him, so it should be fine.
Of course, it is also because of his identity that the queen visited Hong Kong last year, and he is willing to spend money - although he also cut a lot of meat from Hong Kong - and most importantly, the return of Hong Kong is almost a foregone conclusion, and they have little heart to operate.
Although it will take the time of Patten to give up completely, it is not a big deal to drill into the void or something now.
"Since Wenjun won the Japan lottery and Xiuxia won the United States, then the matter is decided. Sitting in the living room of the villa, facing two young girls who could only sit in half of the position, Li Xu said.
"Yes, sir. Xiao Xiuxia and Zhao Wenjun replied in a low voice together, and the feeling of opening the bud together was still full of pain.
"However, you all have to change your name, I thought about it casually," Li Xu said at this time, "Zhao Wenjun will be called Ye Quanzhen in the future, Xiao Xiuxia, and Xiao Yan in the future, is there a problem." ”
The two girls raised their heads and looked at each other, both of them had some inexplicable feelings, generally the maid is named in a big family, even if she doesn't give a surname, at least she has the same name, what is the matter with this Ye Quanzhen and Xiao Yan?
But they didn't mean to refuse, and immediately lowered their heads again: "No problem, master." ”
"Very well, so be it. Li Xu nodded, didn't say much, got up and left from the villa.
The next thing, of course, was to go north, and he wanted to stay one more day to see if things came through the European side and how Hong Kong reacted.
However, after knocking on Xu Ke and them, although these guys knew what happened at the Cannes Film Festival, they couldn't say why, they just felt that the investors behind the scenes were really rich, and they didn't contact Li Xu at all.
This makes Li Xu, who wants to pretend to be 13, very depressed, after all, the invisible pretending to be 13 is the most deadly, and I always feel a little lo when I go around preaching what I did all day long.
Considering the atmosphere of the Hong Kong film industry, it is normal to not know the situation, but on the other side of Wanwan, according to Zhang Aijia, who went back to live for a few days, Yang Dezhuan and Hou Xiaoxian are discussing this matter, and they feel that the investors behind the scenes are really generous, and they can come up with such a method and put it into action.
It's a pity that no matter how fanciful she blows, Li Xu will not increase her investment in Wanwan movies, she has taken the wrong path, of course, she has to correct it herself, not to mention that Wanwan's small body has gone wrong on some roads, and it will be difficult to turn back.
It is true that the boat is small and easy to turn around, but the ability to resist wind and waves is also poor, not to mention that the person at the helm is not interested in resisting wind and waves at all.
Let's take a look at what the mainland, which has a huge market, or market potential, can make the number of moviegoers in Erha comparable to "Shaolin Temple" in 30 years.
------
The lights came on, looking at the white cloth hanging on the wall, Li Xu pondered for a moment, and then applauded.
The elders next to him smiled and applauded, and the leaders of Shangying who sat with them also applauded with relief.
To be honest, Shangying has done a very good job, although Li Xu has been paying attention to the progress of "Horror Train", but after all, it is across the Pacific Ocean, and it is not 20 years later that there will be a network connection to the world, it is inevitable that the news will lag, and the final effect will not be completely certain.
However, the identity of a foreigner is useful after all, even if he irresponsibly threw the storyboard of "Train to Busan" to Shangying, but the script was revised, but they still made a zombie film that is not bad for the current era.
At least, Chen Daoshu's acting skills are so high that he doesn't know where to go, and Gao Yaya is obviously more lovable than Jin Xiu'an, not to mention Zhu Ling and Lin Fangbing.
Although the cast is not the highest level lineup in the mainland at present, it is definitely not underestimated - of course, affected by technology and the times, it is inevitable that the performance will be slightly exaggerated, but at least within the acceptable range of Li Xu.
From a personal point of view, he felt that mainlanders in this era should be able to accept such a movie, so ......
"The audit has actually passed. After the elders encouraged the leaders of Shangying, Li Xu found the director of the factory to ask about the release, and the other party replied like this.
"Really?" Li Xu was surprised.
"It's still Mr. Tuo Li's blessing," replied with a smile, "and we'll send the copy over, and tell you what you're concerned about, and the comrades over there will see it and let it go." ”
Okay, considering that in the late 80s and early 90s, strange films from the mainland were released one after another, such as "Silver Snake Murder", "Lonely Soul in the Black Mansion", "Poisonous Kiss" and even "Crazy Rabbit", these can all be released, and there is no shortage of "Horror Train", not to mention...... The elders also think it's good, don't they?
"So what time is it?" Li Xu immediately asked.
"At the beginning of August. The director replied after recalling,
"Then I'll have to come back then. Li Xu laughed.
"Ace vs. Ace" was also launched at that time, and he would definitely come to Hong Kong to supervise, and by the way, he would go north to see how appropriate the response to the movie was.
All in all, the first and possibly the only zombie movie in the mainland is about to be released!
The historical epoch was created in his own hands and ended in his own hands.
Then the unexpected and the surprise came.
"Mr. Li, do you want to ride in a car with me?" said the elder as he left Shangying.
"That's good. Li Xu immediately replied briskly, although he rolled his eyes in his heart.
So, can't you always think about being greedy? And then the negotiations are at an impasse and come back to me.
"Should I still say, 'The elders give it, don't dare to resign?'" he laughed and teased in passing.
The real elder laughed, but he didn't know how many "-1s" were bubbling out of this laughter.
