After Lin Youlun saw the news of Yang Dengkui going to the theater in the newspaper, he just laughed it off.

The Taiwan film market is not the focus of Lin Youlun's industrial layout, and in Lin Youlun's eyes, neither Wu Dun nor Yang Dengkui are good people, if the two are willing to fight, let them fight, anyway, the initiative of cooperation is in Lin Youlun's hands, and it is the same for whoever to cooperate.

Lin Youlun smiled at the corner of his mouth, put the newspaper aside, picked up the coffee and was about to drink it, when Zhou Comin, who was wearing silk pajamas, walked in.

Just finished taking a shower, Zhou Comina's hair was still wet, with a faint fragrance of shower gel, and her pajamas, which were as thin as silkworm wings, were close to her body, making her figure uneven.

Lin Youlun stretched out his hand and motioned for Zhou Yimin to sit beside him, hugged her slender waist and said, "Good news for you." ”

"Is the box office data from South Korea out there?" Zhou Yimin leaned on Lin Youlun's arm, and the softness in his chest made Lin Youlun a little uneasy.

Lin Youlun lowered his head and looked at Zhou Comin's fair cheeks as smooth as satin, his eyes were dark and misty, and there was a thin mist floating there, and he couldn't help but reach out and scrape her nose.

"So nervous?" Lin Youlun asked with a smile.

Zhou Comin put his body closer to Lin Youlun's arms, and said softly: "I don't want to lose to her." ”

The tone is soft and weak, but there is a stubbornness that does not admit defeat.

Lin Youlun rubbed Zhou Yanmin's wet head, "My Xiaomin has always been the best. ”

Zhou Comemin pouted, "You haven't said any good news yet!" ”

Lin Youlun held Zhou Yimin's soft and sleek shoulders, "The box office of "Untouchable Lovers" in South Korea has been counted, with a total of 30 million Hong Kong dollars in the first week of release...... Lin Quanze called me yesterday to tell me. The film is very popular in South Korea. Maybe you should think about when you should go to South Korea for a concert. ”

"The scenery of Jeju Island is really beautiful. Will you come with me again? Zhou Yimin raised his head and looked at Lin Youlun with sparkling eyes.

"No problem." Lin Youlun agreed.

Zhou Yimin pursed his mouth, and a wonderful and quiet smile appeared on his face.

Lin Youlun enjoyed this quiet and comfortable state of mind when he stayed with Zhou Yimin, holding the beautiful woman in his arms, and his thoughts drifted out of the window unconsciously.

——

"Untouchable Lovers" was officially released in Hong Kong, and the guest lineup at the premiere was on par with "My Sassy Girlfriend" half a month ago, especially Zhou Xingchi, who rarely participates in such activities, also appeared at the premiere, which surprised reporters.

"It's almost the New Year. The work arrangement was relatively relaxed, and I received an invitation, so I came over. When Zhou Xingchi was interviewed, he explained the reason why he came to cheer at the beginning.

"Have you seen the movie My Sassy Girlfriend before?" A reporter asked.

Of course, Zhou Xingchi knew what the other party meant when he mentioned "My Sassy Girlfriend", but he pretended to look at the other party in surprise and said: "Could it be that I went to the wrong place, it should be "Untouchable Lovers" that will be released here today, right?" ”

Zhou Xingchi made it clear that he didn't want to answer this question, and the reporters had no choice.

After dealing with the reporters at the door, Zhou Xingchi walked into the screening hall under the leadership of the on-site staff, glanced at the people sitting in the front row, and quickly found his goal. But a foreigner got ahead of him.

Lin Youlun looked at the uninvited Americans and said in surprise: "Mr. Thomas." What are you doing here? ”

Thomas shrugged, "What, isn't Mr. Lin welcome?" ”

"It's just a bit of a surprise that I didn't think Mr. Thomas would be interested in this type of film." Lin Youlun smiled and turned his head to ask the theater staff to arrange a seat for Thomas.

"This movie is starring the beautiful Miss Zhou, how could I miss it?" Thomas took Zhou Comin's hand, put it to his mouth and kissed it gently.

"I've acted in other movies before, but unfortunately I haven't seen Mr. Thomas so enthusiastic." Zhou Yimin pretended to sigh regretfully.

Thomas was stunned, and then laughed a little embarrassed, "I have decided to officially become a fan of Miss Zhou from today." ”

A natural and subtle smile appeared on Zhou Yimin's face, and she knew that Thomas and Lin Youlun had something to say, so she said goodbye and took the initiative to leave.

"Is there anything that Mr. Thomas can say now?" Lin Youlun looked at Thomas, he didn't take the compliment that the Americans just now took seriously.

"Mr. Lin, I'm here for this movie starring Miss Zhou this time." Thomas said with a serious expression.

Lin Youlun raised his eyebrows, "What, Mr. Thomas wants to welcome this movie into the North American market?" ”

Thomas shook his head, "The market for this film in North America is very limited, and I think Mr. Lin and I share the same opinion. ”

Lin Youlun pouted noncommittally, "Then Mr. Thomas is here this time?" ”

"A friend of mine, who is a producer in the United States, saw this movie in South Korea and thought that this kind of love and love across time and space was very novel and interesting, so he was ready to buy the adaptation rights of the film and adapt it into an American movie." Thomas didn't beat around the bush and said his purpose directly.

"Adaptation?" Lin Youlun was surprised in his heart, in his impression, the later Korean version of "Untouchable Lovers" was indeed adapted into an American movie, named "Lake House", starring the famous Hollywood star Keanu Reeves.

Now that this movie appeared in advance in the hands of Lin Youlun, it is still favored by Hollywood producers, but it has been adapted in the past, and the leading actors will definitely no longer be those people that Lin Youlun is familiar with.

"No problem, I agreed to this." Lin Youlun knows very well in his heart that movies with love themes like "Untouchable Lovers", because of regional cultural differences, it is indeed difficult to make a big difference in North America, so it is better to sell the adaptation rights, so that you can earn an extra adaptation fee.

Of course, no matter how high the other party's price is, this money is only better than nothing in Lin Youlun's eyes, the key is to give Thomas a face, and there are still many places that need the help of Americans in the future.

Thomas had a big smile on his face, "I can't wait to tell my friend the good news right now." ”

Lin Youlun pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Don't be in such a hurry, I think Mr. Thomas can finish watching this movie first." ”

Thomas patted his head and said apologetically: "I was so happy that I forgot about it, I think Mr. Lin has already arranged a seat for me, right?" ”

"Of course." Lin Youlun summoned the staff of the theater and asked him to take Thomas to find a seat.

As soon as Thomas left, Zhou Xingchi walked over to this side, his seat was not here, and he obviously had something to say to Lin Youlun.

"Xingzai, it's been a long time, I heard that you were busy some time ago?"

"It's all a small fight, and I still miss the days when I used to make films with Mr. Lin." Zhou Xingchi said this very bluntly, and his eyes also revealed expectation.

Zhou Xingchi made 5 movies in one go last year, this output is not much among Hong Kong stars, Liu Dehua made 13 movies a year when he was the most fierce, and Lucy Cheng filmed in 8 crews at the same time. Zhou Xingchi also received a lot of scripts at the same time, but because he took on bad movies when he became famous, he reversed his reputation, and after being mentioned by Lin Youlun, he restrained the number of films he made every year, and he also had high requirements for scripts.

Of course, as a member of "Double Monday Cheng", Zhou Xingchi filmed 5 dramas today, and the box office was all above 30 million, in terms of box office appeal, only Zhou Yanfa and Cheng Long can compare with him.

But Zhou Xingchi himself is not satisfied, taking his most profitable "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" this year as an example, the Hong Kong box office is more than 40 million, and the income from overseas sales ports is added together, bringing a total of nearly 20 million to Zhou Xingchi, which can be said to be a big profit, but compared with the previous "Shaolin Football" and "Realization Monster", the gap is still very obvious.

"Shaolin Football" was filmed for Shaw Brothers, and Zhou Xingchi only received a salary of a few millions, but the movie brought at least 300 million Hong Kong dollars to Shaw Brothers after the worst, and "Realizing the Monster" Zhou Xingchi also participated in the investment, although most of the dividends still went to Lin Youlun, but the money distributed to Zhou Xingchi was also more than 100 million.

In such a comparison, Zhou Xingchi certainly still hopes to cooperate with Lin Youlun again, because the comedies he is making now can only be accepted in Chinese-speaking regions, and the most profitable North American market cannot be entered at all.

To cooperate with Zhou Xingchi, Lin Youlun has a lot of films to choose from, but to achieve great success in overseas markets like "Shaolin Football" and "Strange Heroes in Disguise", there is no particularly suitable movie for a while.

Zhou Xingchi, as a comedian, has a bit of a narrow acting path, the success of "Shaolin Football" is due to the east wind of the World Cup, and "Strange Heroes in Disguise" is mainly due to novel and exaggerated special effects, and the success of both has some luck elements.

Lin Youlun frowned and didn't speak, Zhou Xingchi knew that things were a little difficult to do, he knew his own situation very well, and now even Lin Youlun was not sure, so he had to retreat to the second.

"Actually, it doesn't have to be a big-budget movie, as long as you can cooperate with Mr. Lin again, you can make any type of movie."

Zhou Xingchi believes that Lin Youlun will definitely not perfunctory himself with any movie, since there is no way to hit the overseas market at the box office, Zhou Xingchi wants to make a difference in film awards.

This requirement is not low, because Zhou Xingchi has been labeled as a comedian since he became famous, and it is difficult for the starring movies to get rid of the category of commercial films, and it will be more difficult than other types of actors to get recognition for awards.

Lin Youlun thought about it for a while, and then thought of a movie. (To be continued......)
