Chapter 34: Hong Jinbao helps
"What! Applejack, what do you say! Hong Jinbao said in shock.
"Hehe, I know you're going to be shocked when you say that, but I really didn't lie to you." Chen Jie said with a smile.
Hong Jinbao felt that he had lost his temper just now, and forced his mood to ask, "Ajie, you are really not joking with me!" You know, if it's a joke, it's not funny at all. ”
"Hehe, I can't joke about this even if I'm joking with Brother Sanmao. Otherwise, Brother Sanmao won't eat me! Besides, Brother Sanmao himself is also a good hand at writing scripts, and when the time comes, Brother Sanmao will know if I give you the script by himself! Chen Jie said.
Hong Jinbao picked up the teacup, drank all the difference in the cup, and said, "Okay, Ajie, then I'll wait for you, your script!" ”
A few people chatted for a while, and Yuan Biao pestered Chen Jie and chatted happily. Hong Jinbao was thinking about another thing in his heart at this time. Chen Jie said that he had a copy of the movie, and the movie was also a script he created himself, and at this moment Hong Jinbao wanted to hurry up and see what level Chen Jie's movie was. He wanted to judge Chen Jie's ability to write scripts in this way. So he interrupted the conversation between the two.
"Ah Zhen, don't talk about it yet. I'll have something to do later! Hong Jinbao said.
Yuan Biao respected his senior brother very much, and immediately said after hearing Hong Jinbao say this, "Senior brother, I've eaten well, what's the matter!" ”
"We're going back to the office to see Applejack's movie! Do you want Brother Liang to be together? Hong Jinbao said.
"I'm not going, you can go." Huang Chunliang said.
"In that case, let's go. Uncle Liang, we'll see you tomorrow. Chen Jie said.
After the three of them said goodbye to Huang Chunliang, Hong Jinbao drove the two to his Baohe company. Anxiously pulling Chen Jie to feel the projection room let the projectionist play a copy of Chen Jie's movie.
Five minutes after the movie was played, laughter erupted from the screening room. An hour and a half later, Hong Jinbao walked out of the screening room with a somewhat sore stomach with a smile. Looking at Chen Jie like a monster. He has to admit that although Chen Jie's movie is all used by newcomers, it is indeed a good commercial movie.
"After Applejack watched your movie, I was looking forward to the script you were going to write for me!" Hong Jinbao said.
"I will definitely not disappoint Brother Sanmao when the time comes. But there is one thing I have to explain to Brother Sanmao first, I have to hold the copyright of the sequel in my hands. Chen Jie said.
Ordinary people will feel that Chen Jie is a little ignorant after hearing Chen Jie's words. But Hong Jinbao thought of another meaning.
"Applejack, you mean the script you wrote for me could be made into a series!" Hong Jinbao said in surprise.
"Of course, this is a commercial blockbuster that doesn't have to be bad for "Best Partner"." Chen Jie said.
Hong Jinbao didn't ask much after listening to Chen Jie's words, although now Hong Jinbao believes that Chen Jie's script will definitely not be bad. But to get to that point, we have to look at the situation after the release of his "Night Supermarket" and "Best Partner".
"Applejack, I'll leave the release of this "Night Supermarket" to me, I'll go say hello to Uncle Huai, you don't have to worry about that." Hong Jinbao said.
"Then thank you Brother Sanmao." Chen Jie said.
"Let's not talk about this for now, Applejack, you have no interest in helping me!" Hong Jinbao said.
"Help?" Chen Jie asked a little puzzled.
"Yes, come to my office to help me." Hong Jinbao said.
Chen Jie fell into deep thought after listening to Hong Jinbao's words and did not speak.
Seeing this, Hong Jinbao continued, "Ajie, you are very talented, and I saw your acting talent and ability to write scripts in this "Night Supermarket". And you're pretty good at fighting. can tie with Brother Liang, this skill is definitely not worse than Brother Xiaolong, Brother Xiaolong told me back then that he can also tie with Brother Liang. And you're so good-looking. As long as you come to help me, I promise to make you the first movie star in Hong Kong within 3 years. ”
"Thank you Brother Sanmao for looking up to me so much, but I can't promise you now!" Chen Jie said.
"Why?" Hong Jinbao asked puzzled.
"Although there is news now that wireless is going to ban me, but it has not been executed, if I promise Brother Sanmao now, I will be unrighteous first, and I Chen Jie has no big ambitions in my life. But I have my own principles of being a man, and I will not do unrighteous things. Chen Jie said.
"Okay, Applejack, I read that right, little brother. Then I won't force you, if you have any difficulties, come to me at any time, your Sanmao brother still has some connections in the entertainment industry. Hong Jinbao said magnificently after listening to Chen Jie's words.
He really likes Chen Jie's little brother now. Although young, it can be said that he is talented. He is still so principled in doing things. Hong Jinbao is more pleasing to Chen Jie's eyes.
"Hehe, then thank Brother Sanmao first, you will inevitably trouble Brother Sanmao in the future. I won't be polite to you when the time comes. Chen Jie said.
"No problem." Hong Jinbao said magnificently.
The two chatted for a while, and Chen Jie said goodbye and left, leaving the copy of the movie to Hong Jinbao. Hong Jinbao is also an anxious child, Chen Jie came to Golden Harvest with a copy of the movie after leaving.
"Uncle Huai, I have a movie in my hand that I want you to watch." Seeing the wrinkled boss of Jiahe, Hong Jinbao said.
"Sanmao, why did you finish the new film so quickly! No, I remember that your movie was still in preparation two days ago! Wrinkle said.
"I didn't shoot it, but a little brother I know today." Hong Jinbao said.
"Well, what a big investment?" Wrinkle asked.
"I'll keep the investment secret first, but I believe that Uncle Huai will definitely be shocked by the investment in this movie if he watches it." Hong Jinbao said with a smile.
"Hehe, Sanmao, you still learned to sell guanzi with me today. Okay, I'll give you a face. Wrinkle said.
After speaking, he came to the screening hall of Golden Harvest with Hong Jinbao.
An hour and a half later, after Wrinkle Huai and Hong Jinbao walked out of the office, they handed Hong Jinbao a cigar, lit it and smoked it twice and said, "Sanmao, this movie is very good, although there are no stars, but the commercial elements are very good, I agreed to release it in our Golden Harvest Cinema, I will call Ah Yong to see what films have been arranged recently, if there is no good film, I will give this movie a full line." ”、
"All screens!" Hong Jinbao asked with some shock.
"Hehe, this is also giving you three cents of face, now you can tell me how much you invested in this movie, there are no stars, and the scene is very single. A million should be about the same. is really talented, if the publicity is good, the box office of seven or eight million should be fine. It's a rare movie about a knife sawing a big tree. Sanmao, your little brother is not ordinary. Wrinkle said.
"Hehe, Uncle Huai, if I tell you that this movie plus post-production only cost less than 250,000 Hong Kong dollars, I don't know how Uncle Huai will feel!" Hong Jinbao said.
"What! Sanmao, what do you say! Wrinkle asked in surprise.
"All the actors and directors didn't ask for a penny's salary, and the total investment plus post-production was less than 250,000 yuan." Hong Jinbao said.
"Wizard, what a genius." Wrinkle said in surprise.
"And Uncle Huai, you may not have noticed that the director of this movie is the director of Shaw Brothers' "A Thousand Kings Fighting a Thousand Tyrants", and it is not that there is no star, the actor who plays Zhu Liao is now the hottest rookie singer in Xiangjiang, I heard that his first album sold 100,000 sales in a week. The size is also a star. Hong Jinbao said.
"Hehe, then I want to congratulate you Sanmao, you have found a good helper!" Wrinkle said.
"Not yet." Hong Jinbao said.
Wrinkled Huai heard Hong Jinbao's over-the-top voice and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
