The length of "Hong Kong Holiday" is 110 minutes, and the screening time exceeds most of the local films in Hong Kong in this era, plus Li Hualong and Yang Meng's first filming, before filming, they have to act several times, and at the same time, the number of ng times is more normal, and the filming of this movie took nearly three months.

In order to make the movie "Hong Kong Holiday" more brilliant, Li Hualong wanted to plagiarize a classic song for this movie, but after thinking about it, he couldn't find anything particularly satisfying, and finally he chose the song "Old Love Song", which he sang himself.

After the filming of the film was completed, Li Hualong began to secretly purchase all kinds of war materials, shipped them to Macao, and stored them in warehouses.

At the beginning of June, the fourth batch of 46 residential buildings developed by Hualong Real Estate was completed, and advertisements were placed in Ming Pao for several days in a row, and a large number of sales brochures were distributed free of charge.

Prior to this, real estate developers in Hong Kong had already adopted the method of sub-household sales.

The 46 residential towers are available in different layouts, with the largest single-family being 1,100 square feet and the smallest being just 180 square feet.

This time, the new houses developed by Hualong Real Estate are still selling well, and it took more than three weeks to sell out all the 436 units that were put up for sale.

Just by virtue of the house sold, Li Hualong can make a profit of nearly 2 million yuan, counting the bottom shops that were left in his hands and not sold, the profit is more than 2.4 million.

Li Hualong estimated that his personal assets had exceeded 6.5 million.

After obtaining a large amount of cash from the sale of the house, Li Hualong invested more money to secretly purchase war materials and send them to Macao, mainly in the form of black iron sheets, rubber, and tires.

Li Hualong is not untargeted to buy more black iron sheets, rubber and tires, because Li Hualong of later generations has read some historical materials on the Internet, during the period of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, the mainland was very short of black iron sheets, and black iron sheets were used to make gasoline barrels.

At that time, there was no iron sheet barrel in China, and a large number of empty barrels could not be bought, and if black iron barrels were not imported quickly, it would cause a serious panic situation in which gasoline could not be transported to the Korean battlefield. At that time, importing a large amount of black iron sheets became a military and political task related to the overall situation of the war, and Huo Yingdong's fleet transported a large number of black iron sheets that were urgently needed in China for the mainland.

When the Chinese Republic was first founded, rubber trees were only sporadically planted, and the rubber industry was extremely weak, and it was not yet able to produce car tires.

The Soviet Union and Eastern Europe also did not produce rubber. In order to solve the rubber problem of the "socialist camp", the leader of M and Stalin of the Soviet Union personally negotiated the deployment of rubber planting trees, and Ye Shuai personally went into battle to wade through mountains and rivers to engage in rubber planting.

The Chinese People's Volunteers have to consume a lot of tires, while rubber trees can only be tapped.

There is a shortage of rubber in China, and the governments of the United States and Britain naturally know that when they impose economic sanctions on China in the future, they will definitely enter the embargo list.

……

On June 20, Li Hualong's second martial arts novel "Flying Fox on the Snow" began to be serialized in "Ming Pao", and "Book of Swords and Enmity" still has more than ten days of serialization.

Two days later, on June 22, the complete collection of the martial arts novel "Book of Swords and Enmity", published in four volumes, went on sale in Hong Kong.

In order to publish and distribute the book "The Book of Swords and Enmity", and for the sake of future development, Li Hualong funded the establishment of the Ming Pao Publishing House, which is a sister company of the Ming Pao Newspaper Company, and he plans to establish the Ming Pao Group in the future, and the newspaper and the newspaper are both subsidiaries of the Ming Pao Group.

When the complete collection of "The Book of Swords and Enmity" was published, he did not take the initiative to contact the bookstore, but placed an advertisement in the "Ming Pao", informing the bookstore owner in the city that the "Book of Swords and Enmity" was about to be published, and he was welcome to buy it wholesale.

When Ming Pao was founded, he took the initiative to give the newspaper to distributors on credit, and Li Hualong was still an unknown person at that time, but now, his fame in Hong Kong is not small, and many Hong Kong people know that he is a new real estate tycoon.

It is precisely because Li Hualong is now famous, and there are many readers of "Book of Swords and Enmity", that Ming Pao Publishing House did not sell on credit, and ordered the novel in full first.

The retail price of the complete works of "The Book of Swords and Enmity" is HK$1.2, and there is no price for a single volume, and the wholesale price of a complete set is HK$0.75.

Before June 22, a number of bookstores had ordered a large number of 4,500 copies of "Book of Swords and Enmity" from Ming Pao, and all 4,500 copies of the novels were delivered to bookstores on the day they went on sale.

The Ming Pao Publishing House placed an advertisement in the Ming Pao, and the booksellers saw it, and many ordinary readers also saw it, and many of these people were fans of "The Book of Swords and Enmity".

The novel "Book of Swords and Enmity" has not yet been serialized in the newspaper, and the complete work will be published first, which has a great attraction to many book lovers, even if the novel is all serialized, many book fans are willing to buy a complete set of complete works and then read this classic novel carefully.

After the novel "Book of Swords and Enmity" was published and released, the sales were very good, and the owners of several bookstores who had not bought this set of sales in wholesale had ordered it from Ming Pao Publishing House.

By the evening of June 23, before the staff of Ming Pao Publishing House got off work, more than 10,000 copies of the complete works of "The Book of Swords and Enmity" had been sold and ordered by customers.

……

On June 25, the film "Hong Kong Holiday" completed the post-editing work.

On this very day, the Korean War broke out in full force.

Up to this day, Li Hualong had spent a total of more than 4 million Hong Kong dollars on transporting all kinds of war materials to Macao.

Two days later, at 9 o'clock in the morning of the 27th, the owners of many cinemas and cinemas in Hong Kong were invited to Lianhua Cinema to watch "Hong Kong Holiday".

Lianhua Cinema is the name of the theater bought by Li Yisong, the name was obtained by Li Hualong, and the cinema has shown several other films before the screening of "Hong Kong Holiday".

Soon after the filming of "Hong Kong Holiday" was completed, Li Hualong asked employees of Huayi Brothers Film Group to contact the owners of major cinemas and movie theaters in Hong Kong and invite them to watch the film after "Hong Kong Holiday" was completed.

After watching the movie, let's talk about cooperation.

Li Hualong's "Ming Pao" and "Book of Swords and Enmity", as well as his subsidiary Hualong Real Estate Co., Ltd., plus the recent news of the movie "Hong Kong Holiday" reported by many newspapers, made him famous in Hong Kong, and most of the owners of major theaters in Hong Kong did not refuse his invitation.

The owners who run cinemas and movie theaters have a certain vision, and after watching a movie, they know that it is good or bad, and they know that this movie will definitely be a big hit at the box office before they have finished watching the movie "Hong Kong Holiday".

As soon as he finished watching the movie, several bosses walked up to Li Hualong and asked to buy out the copyright of "Hong Kong Holiday", but Li Hualong refused.

"Ladies and gentlemen, don't worry, today at noon, I invite you to the Peninsula Hotel for lunch. After lunch, we'll talk about cooperation. ”

The Peninsula is the best hotel in Hong Kong, and a lunch cost Mr. Lee a lot of money, but he felt it was well spent, as most of the bosses accepted the proposed terms of cooperation.

Li Hualong felt that "Hong Kong Holiday" would be a big hit at the box office in Hong Kong, he didn't blindly think about making more money, taking into account the interests of the theater, he referred to the Hollywood sharing method in later generations, in the early days of the release, he got a higher share, the longer the release time, the less his share, and the theater got a gradual increase, the premise of this qiē is the attendance rate, if the first week of release, the attendance rate is not guaranteed, and the share he can get is much lower.

After an afternoon of negotiations, Li Hualong reached a verbal agreement with most of the theater and movie theater owners, and the formal agreement will not be signed until the next day.

……

Starting from July 1, Huayi Brothers Film Group placed advertisements for the film "Hong Kong Holiday" in many newspapers such as "Ming Pao" and "Cheng Pao" for five consecutive days, with an advertising investment of up to 40,000 yuan.

Coupled with the cost of filming, the total investment of "Hong Kong Holiday" reached 200,000 Hong Kong dollars, making it the highest-cost film since the opening of Hong Kong.

In addition, the poster of "Hong Kong Holiday" is decorated on the streets of Hong Kong.

Never before in the history of Hong Kong has a movie caused such a sensation before it was released.

Before the release of "Hong Kong Holiday", there were only a handful of movies with a box office income of 200,000 Hong Kong dollars, and it can be said that Huayi Brothers Film Group announced the cost of the film, which caused a huge sensation.
