"Family Portrait" was originally a comedy film filmed by Xin Yicheng in 1984, starring Xu Guanjie, Zheng Wenya, Zhen Ni and Shi Tian, and child star Wen Zhaoyu. The film has been released and has achieved a good result of more than 22 million box office, firmly occupying the fourth place in the box office list of that year, second only to the action film "Shaolin Kid" created by the original "Shaolin Temple" director Zhang Xinyan and the original team.

But now the starring roles have become Zhou Runfa, who has taken off the hat of "box office poison", as well as Li Saifeng, Pan Yingzi and child star Jiang Feng, who performed well in "Good Boy: Little Dragon Out of the Mountain". And Lin Zhenying also made a cameo appearance as a white-haired funny grandfather, this film is actually not a big investment. However, with the current reputation of Donglai Company and the popularity of Zhou Yanfa, Lin Zhenying and others, it should be said that the box office is still worth looking forward to.

"Cold Moon Lone Star Sword" is a typical martial arts film, with the popularity accumulated when the previous episodes were broadcast, and it is more appropriate to shoot it now. Especially in the film, Rong Huiwen, He Jinjin, Liang Yonghui, Dong Dart, Liang Xiaolong, etc. are also gathered to star, and the atmospheric set and well-designed actions of "Huang Feihong's Top Gun" are continued, Gu Weiqi pondered that the box office should not be too bad.

As for "The Working Emperor", it was also a classic film filmed by Xinyicheng and starring Xu Guanjie, Teddy Luo Bing and Wang Guxian. Now the starring roles have become Liu Dehua, Qin Pei and Li Yuanxian. In particular, it is worth mentioning "The Best Partner: The Bald Detective", a classic film originally filmed by Xin Yicheng.

The film was the first part of the "Best Partner" series invested by Xin Yicheng in 1982, and then successively filmed the second "Great Magic", the third "The Queen's Secret Order", the fourth "Thousands of Miles to Save the Poor Woman" and the fifth "Terracotta Warriors". The first two were the box office champions of the year, and "The Queen's Secret Order" also broke the box office record of "Best Partner 1", and the latter two received a mediocre response, but they both ranked in the top ten of the annual box office list.

The first part of "Best Partner" was released in January 1982, and the box office collected more than 26 million Hong Kong dollars, causing a sensation in Hong Kong, crushing the Chinese New Year films "Shaolin Temple" and "Young Master Long" starring Li Lianjie and Cheng Zhi in the same period, becoming the Hong Kong-made film with the highest number of moviegoers since the opening of Hong Kong. Moreover, the film not only made Xin Yicheng dominate the Hong Kong film industry in one fell swoop, standing tall with Shao Shi and Jia He, but also evolved into the most classic blockbuster series of films in the 80s, breaking new box office records in Hong Kong.

It can be said that the "Best Partner" series is the most successful series of films in the history of Heung Kong cinema purely in terms of box office, while the "Five Lucky Stars" and "Police Story" series of the same period are inferior. Of course, the most outstanding and successful shooting of this series has to say that the first "bald detective", and the sequels filmed in the following films are all eating the old books of the front, and the surprises brought to the audience are not too many.

It is worth mentioning that the film is also the first Xiangjiang film to break 20 million at the box office.

The original version of the film brings together Xu Guanjie, Mecca, Zhang Aijia, Cao Dahua and Li Zhi starring. and co-directed by Zeng Zhiwei, Lin Lindong and Liu Yongliang. Now it seems that the cast and behind-the-scenes production lineup at the time was quite strong.

In the film, Xu Guanjie plays the role of Kingkong, a ghost horse, naughty and full of confidence; Mecca's bald detective is honest and self-righteous; The policewoman played by Zhang Aijia is hot on the surface, gentle and elegant, but in her bones she longs for her love. is such a triangular relationship, the subtlety of interdependence but mutual constraint has continued until the fourth part of "A Thousand Miles to Save the Poor Woman", which carries forward this significance.

Now the starring detective in the film has become Huang Yuansheng, in order to make this film well, he did not "sacrifice" his hair and cut off his bald head, which shows his dedication. As for the original role of Xu Guanjie, it has become the highly praised Xiaosheng He Jin, and the policewoman played by Zhang Aijia was replaced by Guan Xiumei. Cao Dahua, who is quite addicted to drama, made a cameo appearance in his role in the original time and space, and the role of Li Zhi was topped by Chen Huixian, who has developed well in the music industry.

In addition to reporting to Gu Weiqi on the current operation of the film company, Lin Zhenying and Chen Xunqi also told him that the "Grandmaster of Guoshu from Scratch", which is now being released in the mainland, is very popular, and has received a box office of 180 million yuan as of yesterday in the three months since its release.

And there is no painting yet, so it shouldn't be a problem to get a box office of 200 million when the painting is completed. However, the "Jingwu Hero" that is being filmed has not yet been filmed, and it is still being filmed. This is very understandable, because this is the first film co-produced by the two parties, and it must not be shoddy, and it is reasonable to say that it takes a little longer under the meticulous crafting.

In addition to the above-mentioned company's operations, Chen Xunqi also told him that the company has also received nominations for the best foreign language film about "The Master of Guoshu from Scratch" from the "Venice International Film Festival", "Cannes International Film Festival", "Berlin International Film Festival", "Golden Globe Awards" and "Academy Awards".

At present, Chen Xunqi and Lin Zhenying have sent representatives after discussion. This is a bit unexpected by Gu Weiqi, in fact, although it is unexpected when you think about it carefully, it is also reasonable, because "The Grandmaster of Guoshu Starting from Scratch" is indeed a good film. But despite this, in his opinion, I am afraid that most of it will fail. After all, at this time, foreigners were still more discriminatory against Chinese people, so they didn't take it to heart.

After understanding the situation, Gu Weiqi kept Lin Zhenying and Chen Xunqi busy, and he called Yang Yanpan, who was in charge of cooperating with the mainland to prepare for the filming of the large-scale magic TV series "Journey to the West", and asked about the current preparations. The other party told him that this TV series is still in active preparation, and in addition to Xu Xiaoming, who was sent to the mainland, the mainland also appointed director Yang Jie, and sent Dai Yinglu and Zou Yiqing, who have profound screenwriting skills, to co-write the screenplays.

In terms of actors, as Gu Weiqi remembers, the starring role in "Monkey King" is played by "Liuxiaolingtong" who was born in the "Monkey King Family" in Zhejiang, which has been decided. As for the other roles, there are still large-scale auditions, but in general, the crew has pulled up, in addition to the roles being selected, the behind-the-scenes personnel are still looking for filming locations and starting to make props, everything is going on in an orderly manner.

Hearing this, Gu Weiqi was also relieved, and he didn't urge. After all, this film is a very classic, when he watched it when he was a child in his previous life, it can be said that it brought him a lot of joy, and he didn't want to be in such a hurry that the shooting was unrecognizable, and it would be worth the loss. On the contrary, after asking, let the other side take it slowly, and be sure to control the quality.

After making a phone call with Yang Qianpan, Gu Weiqi called Xu Yanbing, who was in charge of the theater chain, Xia Xuerong and Lu Fang, who were in charge of the "Oriental Hollywood International Film Distribution Company" and the video tape distribution company, and asked about the work of the next few people.

Xu Yanbing reported to him that at present, Tang Dynasty Cinema Line has 19 theaters, and six more are still under renovation and will be put into use in the near future. At present, the Tang Dynasty theaters are showing "The Hand of God", and the Shao family at the same time is releasing the following gambling film "Bo to the End", Jiahe is releasing "Nameless Fire", and the Golden Princess is releasing the "Gambling Tyrant Jianghu" produced by Wang Jing by "Dark Horse International".

Gu Weiqi was very satisfied with the current situation, so he encouraged Xu Yanbing to be busy.

Xia Xuerong reported to Gu Weiqi that now the Oriental Hollywood International Film Distribution Company has developed very well, and "Huang Feihong's Top Gun" and "God of Gamblers" have achieved good box office. In particular, because of his cameo appearance in the role of "Dragon Five", the "God of Gamblers" not only achieved a high box office of 13.8 billion yuan in Yueben, but also achieved a box office of nearly 200 million US dollars in Europe and the United States.

In addition, in addition to distributing the films produced by Donglai Company to obtain high profit returns, it also acquired some potential films that were not released in theaters, and relied on strong distribution capabilities to make a lot of profits in other cities. At present, 30 films have been released, and it has earned a net profit of nearly 4 billion.

Today, the distribution company alone has thousands of employees and offices in many countries and regions, and the business can be said to be thriving, and the distribution company has 70 film rights in its library, and is still continuing to acquire copyrights, and the overall development momentum is good.

As for the video distribution company in charge of Lu Fang, the profitability is not so high. At present, it is still actively developing, and now it has opened channels in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and South Korea. At present, in addition to continuing to stabilize the market in the Asia-Pacific region, it is also starting the European and American markets, and so far, the company's profit of 780 million Hong Kong dollars this year is not bad.

After Gu Weiqi understood the situation, he also encouraged them to get busy. Then he went to Phoenix TV and found Huang Xizhao, Xiao Sheng and Zhou Liang Shuyi to inquire about the operation.

Huang Xizhao told him that the company's development is very good. In particular, some time ago, there was a follow-up report on the dialogue between the "No. 1 chief" and the "Iron Lady" that was broadcast live in the mainland of Kyoto, and the ratings were as high as 90 points at one time, and the "wireless" and "ATV" were simply overwhelmed.

Since then, the opening and holding of the "Mythical Legend Singing Contest" and the "Legend International Beauty Contest" have achieved good ratings, and the second film "Platinum Award" has been launched. In addition, Xiao Sheng has concocted a series of classic dramas such as "People on the Journey", "Intolerable Feelings", and "Sister Tuogun", it can be said that the ratings are in full swing, and the advertising fee is rising steadily.

In addition, after "Huo Yuanjia", "Chen Zhen" and "Huo Dongge" were introduced to the mainland, the ratings were also very popular, and they made a lot of money. It has also opened a new TV branch in Myanmar and Thai to broadcast Chinese-language channels and TV series. For now, the ratings are passable. Although I don't make a lot of money, I can't lose money, mainly because I can slowly cultivate the audience, which is a good start for the company's international development in the future and lays a good foundation.

The reason why Huang Xizhao was able to open Chinese stations in Myanmar and Taibang was naturally because of the care of Gu Weiqi's Dragon King mercenary group. Otherwise, as a Chinese who wants to open a TV station in another country, the difficulties he faces are unimaginable, and it is tantamount to talking in a dream. However, now Gu Weiqi and Myanmar are composed of Longque and Mengchai, and Taibang not only has a good relationship with the royal family, but also the mercenary group in his hand has grown larger and larger, and opening a TV station is just a small matter.

Gu Weiqi encouraged him, and then drove to China Entertainment International Superstar Entertainment Agency. In addition to asking Zhao Yuzhi about the company's operation and development, I naturally want to meet Nicole Kidman, Laura Fangna and Li Yuanxian. It is absolutely impossible for these beauties to have no ideas as long as they are normal men, which is also called work and hunting.
