Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Silver Capital Comes to the Door

"Hello Zhang Sheng, I have admired my name for a long time, and I am like thunder. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info: "Liao Yiyuan, chairman of Yindu Organization, entered Zhang Junyi's office under the guidance of Zhuang Jing, and said to Zhang Junyi with a smile.

Formed by the merger of the Great Wall, Phoenix, Xinlian and Zhongyuan Film Companies, Yindu is the only large-scale state-owned film enterprise in mainland China.

Although today's Zuopai Film Company is far less powerful than the golden princesses of Yitian, Golden Harvest and Lei Daheng, in fact, in the 50s, their films were extremely popular.

At that time, the leftist film company was a representative of "high and high" compared with the popular "Seven Days Fresh" Cantonese films at that time.

At that time, it not only created a very high box office, but also cultivated many excellent filmmakers such as Xia Di, Shi Hui, Bao Fang and so on.

However, at the end of the 60s, affected by the catastrophe in the mainland, the operation of the Xiangjiang Zuopai Film Company came to a standstill. In addition, the explosion initiated by the Zuo faction in six or seven years caused great panic to the Hong Kong people, and also made the Zuo faction begin to become unpopular in Hong Kong.

At the end of the 70s, with the end of the catastrophe in the mainland, the Zopai Film Company was revitalized.

However, at that time, the Hong Kong film industry had been dominated by newly rising film companies such as Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, etc., who had abundant funds, advanced concepts, and flourishing talents, so the films produced were widely popular.

Therefore, because Zuopai Film Company has missed more than ten years of development opportunities, it is no longer accepted by the citizens of Xiangjiang, and the films produced by it rarely sell well at the box office.

However, in terms of ideological depth, Zuopai's movies still win.

Through the memories of his previous life, Zhang Junyi learned that in the early years of the Xiangjiang Awards in the previous life, the best film and the best director were all won by Zuopai Film Company. And mainland actor Siqin Yanwa is also the first mainland actress to win the Academy Awards.

Even Zhang Junyi knew that although the previous Yindu Organization did not do much in the 80s and 90s, after the new century, it began to exert its strength and re-emerged as the hegemon of the Xiangjiang film industry, launching classics such as "Hero", "Eavesdropping", "The Grandmaster", "Cold War", etc., once again carrying half of the Xiangjiang films.

In addition, the most important thing is that Yindu is the only channel for Hong Kong films to enter the mainland, and it is also the only channel for Hong Kong filmmakers to go to the mainland to make films.

Because of this, Zhang Junyi happily agreed when he learned that the person in charge of the Yindu organization wanted to meet with him, and Zhang Junyi also wanted to deal with them well, so that he could open up the mainland market through them.

Of course, there is also Zhang Junyi's own soul, which is actually a mainlander, after all, Zhang Junyi grew up under the five-star red flag in the previous life, and he was naturally close to it.

"Hello, Mr. Liao. Zhang Junyi smiled and shook hands with Liao Yiyuan.

Although the current Yindu institution is not prestigious, in fact, it has funds, employees, the mainland market, and its own cinema chain, plus the identity of the mainland, so Zhang Junyi treats Liao Yiyuan very politely.

"Zhang Sheng is really young and promising, and it is better to meet than to be famous. Liao Yiyuan glanced at Zhang Junyi and said with a smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Liao, for the compliment. Zhang Junyi smiled modestly and said, "Mr. Liao came here in person today, I don't know what happened?"

"There is indeed something I want to cooperate with Zhang Sheng!" Liao Yiyuan replied when he saw that Zhang Junyi asked so directly.

"The Central Plains Film Production Company under the name of Yindu has produced an action movie, which is ready to be released at the beginning of next year, and the Yitian Cinema Line under Zhang Sheng's name now occupies at least half of the resources of the Xiangjiang Cinema Line, and we want to cooperate with Yitian to co-screen this film at that time!" Liao Yiyuan smiled and said the reason why he came to Zhang Junyi this time.

"Oh, I don't know, Mr. Liao, it's inconvenient for me to introduce this movie to me?" Zhang Junyi asked tentatively.

Comparing the time, and then through the memory of Zhang Junyi's previous life, in fact, Zhang Junyi probably guessed which movie Liao Yiyuan was going to release.

If Zhang Junyi is not mistaken, it should be the one directed by Zhang Xinyan, written by Xue Hou and Lu Zhaozhang, co-starring Li Lianjie, Yu Hai, Ding Lan, Ji Chunhua, and Yu Chenghui, and won the Best Action Director at the 2nd Hong Kong Film Awards, the Special Award of the Excellent Film Award of the Ministry of Culture of China, and set a super high record of 16.16 million Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong, breaking the highest grossing record in the history of Hong Kong kung fu films in one fell swoop.

"Of course there is no problem, Zhang Sheng is known as the 'screenwriter saint' in the film screenwriting industry, even if you don't mention it, I want Zhang Sheng to check it. Liao Shengsheng heard that Zhang Junyi had no obvious refusal, and knew that the matter was half successful.

Liao Shengsheng continued: "The name of the film is "Shaolin Temple", which tells the story of the Sui and Tang dynasties, the famous kung fu artist "Shen Leg Zhang" resisted violence and helped righteousness, and was framed and killed by Renze, and his son Xiaohu fled to at least Lin Temple and was rescued by the Shaolin warrior monk Tan Zong. Xiaohu avenged his father, worshiped Tanzong as his teacher, practiced martial arts Shaolin, and fell into Shami, and his law name was Jueyuan. One day, Li Shimin smuggled across the Yellow River and was besieged by Wang Renze's soldiers and horses, and Jueyuan and others rescued him. Wang Ren framed someone in the Shaolin Temple for collaborating with the enemy and plotting against the enemy, preparing to destroy Shaolin. The monks fought bloodily, and Tanzong died in battle. At this time, Li Shimin led his troops back to capture Luoyang, Wang Bing mutinied, and Wang Ren was stabbed by Jueyuan. In order to inherit the legacy of Tanzong, Jueyuan was ordained as a monk and concurrently served as the commander of martial arts. Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty set up monks and soldiers, and set up a monument to commend the monks for their bravery. Since then, Shaolin has practiced martial arts, and the story has spread all over the world. “

Hearing Liao's description of the movie and the title of the movie, Zhang Junyi was 100% sure that Yindu will be released next year is the epic kung fu film "Shaolin Temple", which set a box office record of 161578014 yuan with a ticket price of 1 cent and set a box office record of 4 billion yen in RB and created a box office record of 5.1 billion won in South Korea.

"Being able to promote the exchange of mainland films and Xiangjiang films is a very meaningful thing in itself, I myself have a positive attitude in principle, and I will contact Jiang Zhiqiang of Yitian Cinema Line when the time comes for some specific details on the schedule, and I will greet him in advance!"

Since Zhang Junyi knew that the movie that Yindu was going to release was a blockbuster, this kind of thing that could not only make money but also better for the mainland, it would be strange if Zhang Junyi didn't hurry up and agree.
