"Zhu Xian: Qingyun Tribulation" and "Godzilla" are likely to lose when they face off, but the production cost of "Godzilla" is more than twice that of "Zhu Xian: Qingyun Tribulation", and it is by no means easy for Lin Youlun to recover the cost or even make money...... After figuring this out, Lin Jianyue suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

"Everything is going according to plan, I want to see how rebellious this Godzilla can be!"

Xu Ke originally wanted to persuade Lin Jianyue to advance the schedule of "Zhu Xian: Qingyun Tribulation", even if he gave up the qualification to open the film at the Hong Kong International Film Festival, it was better than directly confronting "Godzilla", but seeing that Lin Jianyue had made up his mind, Xu Ke kept silent and said no more.

——

Xu Ke and Lin Jianyue both regarded "Godzilla" as a big problem, but only three days later, the amazing performance of another movie made them suddenly realize that before the hole card of "Godzilla" was revealed, Lin Youlun had prepared other means.

"Da Lang Laughing at the Immortals", which was evaluated by Hong Kong film critics as a boring and useless comedy, in just three days, the box office actually exceeded 10 million, and Lin Youlun was also taken aback when he received the news, which was more than double the goal he set for Liu Zhenwei.

On the premise of not raising the ticket price, "Da Lu Xiao Xian" has become the fastest film to break through the box office of 10 million since the opening of Hong Kong, and many people are surprised by the film's anti-sky performance, but in fact, if you explore it carefully, it is not for nothing that this movie can get such good results.

The first is the appeal of the original novel of "Zhu Xian", which attracted a large number of readers into the cinema, although many people were "thundered" by the plot of "Da Lu Laughing at Zhu Xian". But it must be admitted. It's a movie that makes people laugh from beginning to end. When they came out of the cinema, after everyone had laughed enough, they had no energy to worry about whether the movie respected the original work.

followed by the film's strong cast, I like to watch beautiful women, this movie has Wang Guxian, Zhou Comin, Qiu Shuzhen, Zhao Yazhi, all of them are stunning in the Hong Kong entertainment industry; likes to watch handsome guys, Liang Jiahui, Zhang Yurong, Liu Dehua, Liang Chaowei, all of them are super beautiful boys who can eat from girls to teachers...... Any one of these leading actors can hold up a movie on its own. Not to mention appearing in a movie, although none of them are acting seriously this time, it is only enough for many fans to be willing to pay for tickets.

As soon as this box office result came out, Lin Youlun immediately fulfilled his promise and held a beautiful celebration banquet for "Da Lu Laughing and Immortal".

——

"I was really careless, I actually forgot about this movie!" Xu Ke put down the newspaper in his hand, shook his head and sighed.

Shi Nansheng glanced at the content of the newspaper, pouted and said: "Liu Zhenwei's movie seems to be a sword, but in fact, it still borrows the momentum of "Zhuxian: Qingyun Tribulation", the same cast. And it was released in advance...... If two movies are released at the same time, you see if it will have such a good box office. ”

Probably the success came too easily. Therefore, Liu Zhenwei's several movies give people a feeling of "opportunism": many people have not understood the reason for the success of "Journey to the West" until now, so they can only be explained by luck; "Shaolin Football" is a global hit, which is inseparable from the World Lujie Cup that year; is the later ingenious "Fierce Ghost Officer", many people criticize Liu Zhenwei for fishing in troubled waters, because there is only one word difference between his name and Liu Guanwei, who filmed "Mr. Zombie", so that many viewers confuse the two of them together.

Xu Ke folded the newspaper in his hand and put it aside, "Anyway, that movie has been a success, but the box office of our movie has been invisibly divided." ”

"I think the real threat is Lin Youlun's Godzilla." Shi Nansheng reminded.

Xu Ke leaned his head back on the sofa and stared blankly at the ceiling, the two opening films of the Hong Kong International Film Festival, one is "Zhu Xian: Qingyun Tribulation", and the other is "Godzilla".

So far, everything about this movie is still a mystery, which has further aggravated Xu Ke's inner uneasiness.

Tomorrow will be the time to know!

——

This year's Hong Kong International Film Festival was held half a month later than last year, and did not officially open until mid-June, because it is about to face the summer season, this time the number of films coming to participate in the exhibition has nearly doubled compared with last year, and Jiayi Cinema Line has opened all its 100 theaters as venues to reflect the participating films, which meets the needs of the entire film festival.

On the day of the opening ceremony, the two opening films that attracted the most attention were naturally.

The Hong Kong media is more concerned about "Zhu Xian: Qingyun Tribulation", after all, this film is nominally selected as the opening film on behalf of Hong Kong films, and "Godzilla" is a co-production between Hong Kong and Japan.

The reaction of the Hong Kong film industry is just the opposite, everyone pays more attention to "Godzilla", not because the investor of this film is Lin Youlun, but because the production cost of this film is almost sky-high, which makes everyone curious about what kind of work can be made with 300 million Hong Kong dollars.

For these two films, Jiayi Cinema Line has each set aside ten theaters to screen them, and on the side of "Godzilla", Lin Youlun specially took out a theater to receive people from the circle to watch the movie.

When Lin Jianyue and Xu Ke rushed here when they heard the news, there were not many vacant seats left in the screening room, and they were all acquaintances: Shao Yifu, who had rarely appeared in public, came, and Fang Yihua accompanied him; Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang also came, accompanied by several senior executives of Jiahe Company; The three giants of the new art city, which have become history, Mecca, Shi Tian, and Huang Baiming are sitting there talking and laughing; Mai Danxiong, Jiang Zhiqiang, and Wu Siyuan, producers who rarely show up, also showed up together; The few people who worked with Zeng Zhiwei should be film dealers from Taiwan...... Don't look at the fact that there are not a few celebrities present, in fact, the people sitting here are the real controllers of the Hong Kong film industry!

Just when Lin Jianyue was stunned, Lin Youlun, who was sitting between Shao Yifu and Zou Wenhuai, suddenly stood up, and then everyone's eyes were focused on him.

Lin Jianyue saw Lin Youlun walking towards him, and he was secretly vigilant in his heart, he didn't think that Lin Youlun was here to greet him, and it was more likely that he wanted to give him a dismissal in public.

Lin Jianyue regretted coming here a little at this time, isn't this self-inflicted?

Of course, at this point, it is impossible for Lin Jianyue to turn around and leave, which is equivalent to telling the people present that he is afraid of Lin Youlun, so he has to stand there hard, already thinking about how to deal with it.

Lin Jianyue's entire attention was attracted by Lin Youlun, who was walking towards him, and he didn't notice that many people in the screening hall were looking behind him.

"Mr. Lin, back!" Xu Ke found out about this situation, and then whispered a reminder in Lin Jianyue's ear.

Lin Jianyue turned around, and then was stunned for a moment, his father Lin Baixin didn't know when Lu Dao walked into the screening hall, and he was standing behind him at this moment.

"Dad, why are you here?"

"I'm not coming, can you handle this meeting today?"

Lin Baixin's words made Lin Jianyue feel very ashamed, and took the initiative to step aside.

"Mr. Lin, you are a rare guest!"

"I heard that there is such a bustle here today, and I hope Lin Sheng will not be surprised." Lin Baixin spoke very politely.

Lin Youlun arched his hand, "Everyone who comes is a guest, and Mr. Lin is too polite to say so." ”

"My son Jianyue has developed in the film industry in the past two years, thanks to Mr. Lin's care, and I should come to support the release of the movie invested by Mr. Lin today." Lin Baixin's words were punns, he was not only here to cheer, but also to help his son support the scene.

"Mr. Lin praised it falsely, Mr. Lin's achievements in the past two years are obvious to all, these are all his own hard work, or others say that you have a good son." Lin Youlun said in a slightly envious tone.

Lin Jianyue raised his head suddenly, his gaze shot at Lin Youlun, he had already heard that Lin Youlun was mocking himself.

Lin Jianyue returned to Hong Kong from 87 to help his father take care of the family business, because of his young and vigorous, many huge investments eventually suffered losses, especially after the family group controlled the new art city at a large price, Lin Jianyue squeezed out the founder Mecca, and then reorganized the new art city and renamed it Media Asia, and invested a huge amount of money in "Zhu Xian's Qingyun Tribulation...... This series of practices has caused great controversy, some people think he is very courageous, some people say that he is ambitious and talented, and he does not know how to operate.

Someone in the media said this, and Lin Jianyue also endured it, but Lin Youlun mocked him for his incompetence in front of Lin Baixin, which immediately made him angry.

Lin Baixin's Qi cultivation kung fu was revealed in this situation, and he responded with a smile as if Lin Youlun was really praising his son: "Jian Yue has done a really good job recently, I am very satisfied, of course, I need more care from Lin Sheng in the future." ”

"Definitely!"

Lin Youlun shook hands with Lin Baixin, and then sat down in a gesture of please.

"Mr. Lin, please!"

The manager of this theater personally guided Lin Baixin and took the father and son to the reserved seats, and as soon as they sat down, Lin Jianyue couldn't help but complain: "Who does Lin Youlun think he is, he dares to be so arrogant in front of you!" ”

"People have this capital!" Lin Baixin closed his eyes and leaned on the seat and said lightly.

Lin Jianyue's face was flushed, his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

Lin Baixin opened his eyes and glanced at Lin Youlun, who had returned to his seat, and then sighed faintly: "I don't have high requirements for you, when you can achieve half of his results, I can rest assured that the entire family industry will be handed over to you!" ”
