Chapter 323: Excited Hong Jinbao
Not long after, Chen Jie's car stopped in front of Golden Harvest, and Chen Jie got out of the car and walked into Golden Harvest Company. After seeing Chen Jie, the reception staff at the front desk of the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info directly came forward to say hello and led Chen Jie to Wrinkled Huai's office.
There were only Wrinkle Huai and Hong Jinbao in the office, and after Chen Jie and the two of them said hello, Hong Jinbao stepped forward and hammered Chen Jie's chest and said
"Stinky boy, don't tell me if you know such a big thing."
Chen Jie smiled and said, "If I tell you about this, Brother Sanmao, are you sure you are still in the mood to film?" ”
"I don't care, your little brother is not doing this properly, you have to find a way to compensate me, otherwise I won't forgive you!" Hong Jinbao said.
When Hong Jinbao said this, his mouth was about to crack his ears, and he didn't have an angry expression at all, no matter how he looked at it, he was so happy. However, Chen Jie still cooperated and pretended to be contemplative, and after a few minutes, Chen Jie solemnly looked at Hong Jinbao and said, "How about the sequel to "Five Lucky Stars"? We'll make this movie together tomorrow, and I'll start writing the script as soon as I'm done with it! ”
"What! Applejack, you didn't see the jokes, did you? Hong Jinbao said in surprise.
Originally, Hong Jinbao was not angry, but he couldn't suppress his excitement. Hong Jinbao's original intention was just a joke, of course, it would be better if Chen Jie could pay for him to have a good drink. didn't expect Chen Jie to make him a sequel to "Five Lucky Stars" at once. This really surprised Hong Jinbao!
You must know that the box office of "Five Lucky Stars" is 25.55 million! It's even higher than the box office of the first "Best Partner"! And the box office of "Best Partner 2" has already exceeded 20 million. There is not much problem with watching the momentum break the box office of the first part. Hong Jinbao has long wanted to make a sequel to "Five Lucky Stars". But Chen Jie persuaded him not to make a sequel so quickly, so that everyone would look forward to it more! Plus, he really hasn't had time lately. That's when he dispelled the idea. However, hearing Chen Jie bring up this matter again at this time made Hong Jinbao really a little excited.
"Of course it's true, if I'm joking about this kind of thing at this time, aren't I afraid that Brother Sanmao will find me desperate!" Chen Jie said with a smile.
After listening to Chen Jie's words, Hong Jinbao laughed and scolded Chen Jie, and suddenly thought of something, frowned and looked at Chen Jie and said
"Applejack, didn't you say it's bad to shoot a sequel too quickly!"
"It's really bad for a sequel to come out too quickly, it will hasten the death of a movie! So in my opinion, even if this movie is going to be released, it will be next summer, or even later. But that doesn't stop us from starting to think about it now! Chen Jie said, "And I really can't think of any way to make Brother Sanmao angry, I can't shoot "Ip Man 2"!" In that case, Uncle Liang will have to come to me desperately! ”
Hong Jinbao also laughed after listening to Chen Jie's words. Speaking of which, this incident is still the same as when Chen Jie just returned from the United States. At that time, Chen Kit and Hung Jinpo went to the Wing Chun Association to visit Wong Chun-leung, during which Chen Jie proposed some ideas for "Ip Man 2". However, it was immediately vetoed by Huang Chunliang. Because most of these things were not done by Ip Man himself. Even martial arts competitions and fights were done by the young Huang Chunliang at that time. Mr. Ip Man is very easy-going and doesn't like to do things with people very much. Just like at the beginning of the movie "Ip Man". Huang Chunliang thinks that although Chen Jie's idea is very exciting, it seems to be a little out of identity for Mr. Ye's old words. In his opinion, casually competing with others is what a martial artist like him should do! People like Mr. Ye are not a last resort. Even if you can't eat, you won't do anything with people! So he rejected Chen Jie's proposal.
If Chen Jie really dared to film "Ip Man 2" without Huang Chunliang's consent, then with Huang Chunliang's respect for Mr. Ip Man, he would definitely come to Chen Jie to work hard!
"Okay, I almost got you kid over again. After all, it still won't be released so soon. So what am I doing so early! Is there no place to spend the money! Hong Jinbao scolded with a smile.
He finally reacted to what Chen Jie meant, Chen Jie had already told him that the best release time for this movie would be after the summer of next year at the earliest, so if Hong Jinbao really made this movie now, it would be a brain disease! After all, the investment in this movie will definitely not be lower than the first one! The first part cost 6 million Hong Kong dollars. The movie that was made with so much money can't be released, which is equivalent to suppressing all the millions. And this pressure will be pressed until next summer at the earliest. How could Hong Jinbao do such a loss-making thing!
"Hehe, even if you let you release it after filming, Brother Sanmao, you may not have time to shoot!" Chen Jie said with a smile: "Even if you are busy with the business at hand, Brother Sanmao, don't forget." There is also a 10 million production of Longteng and Golden Harvest waiting for you to shoot! ”
After listening to Chen Jie's words, Hong Jinbao remembered that he had to make such a big production to shoot! During this time, he was so busy that he almost forgot that there was such a movie waiting to be made by himself! I didn't know what to say for a while.
"Applejack, get me the notebook out as soon as possible. Even if I can't shoot it for the time being, I enjoy watching it! Hong Jinbao said a little unwillingly.
Chen Jie smiled and was about to speak, but was preempted by Wrinkles!
"Okay, Sanmao, don't make trouble. It's better to do things wholeheartedly. I'm really afraid that after Applejack writes the book out for you, what will happen if you get distracted! You must know that this big production is the top priority of our Golden Harvest next year! Applejack said that this movie may have a certain market in the United States! Wrinkle said.
Wrinkled Huai had been watching the excitement while listening to the two frolicking, and he was also startled when he heard Chen Jie say about the sequel to "Five Lucky Stars". In particular, Chen Jie's analysis of the sequel movie is very accurate. This is something that Wrinkle Huai himself didn't see, after all, the current Hong Kong movies are too serious. Everyone is eager to release a sequel as soon as possible and make a lot of money before this theme is rotten, but Chen Jie's ideas are obviously different from others, Chen Jie is taking the boutique route. This made Fu Wenhuai's eyes light up. At a time when everyone is a little out of interest in following the trend. Introducing a sequel to the most classic film of the genre. As long as the quality is ok, it is a movie that has once again saved the genre! And this can give the studio a good reputation. After all, others who make this type of movie are scolded by the audience! And what we shot was a big hit at the box office, can this show the strength of our film company! Although Chen Jie's idea seems to be a bit risky, the report he got is definitely huge.
Just when Wrinkle Huai was thinking about whether Jiahe should also take the boutique route like this, he heard that Hong Jin kept Chen Jie to ask for a script. Hurriedly starred in the block. He was really afraid that Hong Jinbao's mind would become lively after reading Chen Jie's script. You must know that the 10 million production with Chen Jie is the top priority of Golden Harvest next year, not only the big investment, but also the wrinkle Huai plans to use this movie to get another ticket in the United States! The most important thing is that if he can help Cheng Long open the American market, then Golden Harvest will make a lot of money. From some points of view, Wrinkle Huai's interest in this movie is even bigger than "New Shu Mountain Swordsman", which Golden Harvest has invested tens of millions of dollars this year!
"Hehe, Uncle Huai, don't worry! In fact, I was also very busy during this time, and I guess when I am done with this time, our movie will almost start shooting! Chen Jie said with a smile: "So I have to pour out the time to write the script, and I may have to wait until our movie is finished!" ”
Wrinkle Huai didn't say anything after hearing Chen Jie's words, but Hong Jinbao said to Chen Jie excitedly
"You kid, after a long day, you didn't want to start filming the sequel to "Five Lucky Stars" so early. I'm still happy for the harm, no, you kid can compensate me well! ”
"Hehe, how about I invite Brother Sanmao to get drunk another day?" Chen Jie said with a smile.
In fact, Chen Jie had already understood Hong Jinbao's plan, and the reason why he talked about the sequel to "Five Lucky Stars" was because he found that Hong Jinbao's current state was a little too excited. Such ups and downs of teasing him can make him emotionally recover.
"Why do you want to change the day, according to my opinion, it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, just today!" (To be continued.) )
