"Happy Ghost" was released for three weeks and received more than 14 million at the box office, which made Chen Lang happy and entangled at the same time.

According to box office sharing conventions and the agreement between itself and Shaw Brothers, LL Films will only receive 20% of the box office in Hong Kong.

As the owner of distribution, cinema management and theaters, as well as half of the investors, Shaw Brothers does not have to work hard to make films, but only needs to use its TVB TV station to do more publicity, and it can easily get a 71.7% share of the box office.

The current Hong Kong film market is already very hot, and the next ten years will be the golden period of Hong Kong films.

Chen Lang originally thought that with his own advantages and the opportunities of the golden age, he would definitely be able to make a lot of money, but the box office share of "Happy Ghost" made Chen Lang really know the entanglement of interests in this industry.

The popularity of the film market is reflected in the large number of films released every month, and in order to be able to arrange these films reasonably, many blockbuster films have to be drawn after only four weeks of release.

At the same time, the number of theaters in Hong Kong is also increasing, a small Hong Kong, the number of theaters reached 190 at the peak, and the density is almost exploding.

In Hong Kong, during the golden age of cinema, you only had to walk two steps to see a movie theater.

Nowadays, many independent film companies are only responsible for making films, and then hand them over to the four major theater chains in Hong Kong for distribution and release, although they can only get about 35% of the box office dividends, but now the Hong Kong film market is extremely prosperous, and most of the films can make money.

As a result, it has attracted countless investors, and the Hong Kong film market has continued to surge in both the number of theaters and the number of employees, contributing to the golden age of Hong Kong films in the next decade.

However, the really good schedules of the year, such as the summer and Spring Festival stalls, are occupied by film companies with their own theaters, such as Golden Harvest, Shaw Brothers and the New Art City backed by the Golden Princess.

In these prime periods, you can't control the fate of your own films, and at the same time, you have to take the lion's share of the box office dividends, so independent filmmaking is like a rootless filmmaker.

At the same time, independent producers generally only make films, and there are no other projects that can achieve a return of funds, and as long as one or two films fail, they may go out of business.

Even if a few films of Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest and New Arts City fail miserably at the box office, there are theaters that can grab half of the box office of all the films released, and there are still funds to continue to shoot films, which is the huge difference between independent producers and film group companies.

There is also a disadvantage that even if you make a lot of money as an independent producer, before you really become a group giant, people will buy you.

Not only is there one less competitor, but there is also a big boost, which is especially prominent in Hollywood, so it is too difficult for an independent producer to continue to grow and eventually become a giant company.

Fortunately, Chen Lang met the Shaw Brothers Film Company, which was already in decline, if he could swallow this film group, then Chen Lang was confident that he would dominate Hong Kong, and then use Hong Kong as a springboard to overlook Asia and even Europe and the United States.

Now, Hong Kong kung fu action films, led by Jackie Chan, have opened up markets in Taiwan, Southeast Asia and even Japan, and even other Hong Kong films have begun to encroach on the Asian market.

Jackie Chan has become a well-known film and television star in Asia.

The most obvious example is the 1983 Hong Kong box office champion "Best Partner 2", the box office outside Hong Kong compared with the third runner-up "Plan A", there is a big gap, "Plan A" is obviously more profitable than "Best Partner 2" at the box office in Asia.

Film companies in these countries and regions have also seen the commercial attributes and selling potential of Hong Kong films, and in the face of huge interests, many film companies rushed to Hong Kong in the hope of introducing Hong Kong films.

In the years that followed, the situation was even better, and even before the film was made, there was only one film, and these studios were willing to pay for it.

For this reason, many film companies have been deceived, and many leather bag companies have made a piece of flowers, and then sold them to these film companies, and after the film companies obediently give money, these leather bag companies will disappear.

But even if this happens repeatedly, there are still countless filmmakers who come to Hong Kong to buy films, which can also show how huge the influence of Hong Kong films in their heyday was, and the benefits brought were amazing.

Fortunately, Shaw Brothers is a film company with good distribution capabilities in Southeast Asia, so after the success of "Happy Ghost", Shaw Brothers is already working on distribution in Taiwan and Southeast Asia.

Among these box office revenues outside Hong Kong, LL Films can get almost 35% of the box office share, which can bring at least one million Hong Kong dollars to LL Films.

Chen Lang thought that he only needed to wait another year to win the Shaw Brothers Film Company and form his own film group, and he was finally a lot more comfortable, but when he thought of the powerful competitor of the famous brand Pan Disheng, he frowned.

Although this famous brand king acquired Shaw Brothers Cinemas and entered the film industry just to promote his brand-name products and pick up girls by the way, compared with Chen Lang, Pan Disheng, who was born in a famous family, has deeper financial resources.

Although Shao Tycoon is known as the godfather of a generation of entertainment, he is also a businessman, even if Chen Lang and Shaw Brothers cooperate closer, but in the face of greater interests, I believe that Shao Tycoon will not hesitate to choose the one with a higher price.

As for Fang Yihua, although there was also an agreement, Chen Lang never counted on it.

Pan Dickson was the biggest obstacle to his acquisition of Shaw Brothers Cinemas, and in later generations, Pan Dickson finally sold the Shaw Brothers Cinemas renamed Debao Cinemas, but there were several years in between, and Chen Lang did not have so much time to wait.

Chen Lang will set up LL Records in Hong Kong this summer, believing that the hot record market can bring a lot of income to himself, and what he can do now is to earn more funds and prepare to start an acquisition war with the famous brand king.

Soon the time came to January 18th, and the 6th Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards Ceremony was grandly opened.

At 7 p.m., the lights are shining in front of the Hong Kong Coliseum, and the entrance to the stadium is surrounded by fans and reporters.

A red carpet stretching 100 meters looks extremely red, and the star bowl on the red carpet is even more dazzling.

"It's Jackie Chan, "Plan A" is amazing!"

"Hahaha, the bald detective is also here!"

"Fa Ge is really tall and handsome, Xu Wenqiang is my favorite!"

……

As one of the grand ceremonies in the Hong Kong music scene, in addition to singers, many film and television stars have also attended, either as award presenters, or to increase their exposure and brush their presence.

Of course, tonight's protagonist is destined to be a music star!

"Danny, you're so pretty, marry me!"

"Sam is the best! Sam is the best! ”

"The moon is bright and the stars are scarce! The moon is bright and the stars are scarce! ”

I don't know if it was specially arranged by the organizing committee, Chen Baiqiang, Chen Lang and Xu Guanjie were arranged to play on the front and back feet.

The three of them can be described as mentors and friends, nodding and smiling at each other, while the reporters around them are desperately pressing the shutter, as the top three of the awards ceremony, the three of them appear in the same photo absolutely eye-catching.

Compared with the friendship between the three, the respective fan groups of the three seem to have a bit of gunpowder.

Because Chen Lang's fan group dresses uniformly every time it appears, it looks full of momentum, and under the influence of this, fans of other stars also follow suit, and every time they wear uniforms printed with their idols, in order to strengthen their momentum.

Now the fan groups of the three occupy the three largest territories, of course, Chen Lang has more fans and occupies the west side of the red carpet, while Chen Baiqiang and Xu Guanjie have relatively fewer fans, and the two fan groups occupy the east side of the red carpet.

At this time, the three fan groups are desperately shouting for their idols, trying to suppress the shouts of the other two fan groups, and it is obvious that the competition for the three has inevitably extended to the foundation groups of the three.

Seeing the faint confrontation between the three foundation groups, the reporters were excited and pressed the shutter again, and the other singers saw this situation, some envy and some schadenfreude.

Chen Lang, Chen Baiqiang and Xu Guanjie glanced at each other, smiled wryly and shook their heads.

Today's fans are getting more and more crazy, and they can do everything they can to support their idols, and they can even do a lot of crazy things.

As early as the first battle between Chen Lang and Xu Guanjie, there was a fight in the school, although it only happened once, but the passion of young people made people feel energetic, and it was indeed accompanied by a lot of unstable factors.

In order to avoid the continuous confrontation between the three fan groups, the three of them tacitly accelerated their pace, and after saying hello to their fan groups a little, they did not accept interviews and entered the venue of the gymnasium directly.

After Chen Lang entered the venue, he stopped, and Chen Baiqiang and Xu Guanjie, who followed closely behind, also stopped when they saw Chen Lang.

"Idol, Danny, how does it feel to see the situation outside?" Chen Lang looked at Chen Baiqiang and Xu Guanjie and smiled.

"Are you showing off that you have more fans than Danny and me?" Xu Guanjie joked with a smile.

"Lang Lang does have more fans than the two of us, and it's normal to be proud." Chen Baiqiang said seriously.

Chen Lang was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't expect Chen Baiqiang to also make his own jokes.

"Well, I throw in the towel. What I mean by this is that it's best to restrain the fans so that some of the excited fans don't make a bad move. ”

"Lang Lang, you think too much, although the fans are much more enthusiastic than before, but they are not going to make trouble." Xu Guanjie said with a smile, obviously not taking it seriously, and Chen Baiqiang also nodded in agreement.

Chen Lang was a little helpless when he heard this, that is because you have not experienced Tan Zhang's hegemony.

During that period, it was common for fans of the two to abuse each other, and even conflicts often occurred, and in order to support their idols, fans in later generations fought against idols' competitors, and even engaged in jihad, and the trouble was not small at all.

Seeing the appearance of the two, obviously they didn't realize how fanatical the enthusiasm of young fans was, Chen Lang had no choice but to shake his head, now the fanaticism of fans has only just begun, and the madness of Tan Zhang's hegemony in less than a few years should not be a big problem.

Then Chen Lang and the two sat separately, Chen Lang was surrounded by Anita Mui and Leslie Cheung, the three of them belonged to the same record company and were arranged together.

Soon, tonight's competitors all entered the venue, and the celebrities and fan reporters who came to cheer also found their seats.

"Audience friends in front of the TV and at the scene, good evening, welcome to the 6th Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards Ceremony, I am Fat Shen Dianxia."

With Sister Fei's opening speech, the most authoritative top ten Chinese golden song award ceremony officially kicked off.
