"Is there really such a thing? Haha, then you are developed, developed! ”

In Yingji Tea House, when Run Run Shaw heard that Shen Zhong had sold a copy of "Mythology" for more than 9 million Hong Kong dollars, he smiled and leaned back, pointed at Shen Zhong and said, "You have to pay for today's afternoon tea!" ”

"It's the little things. Shen Zhong said with a smile: "This is thanks to the effective strategy you and Xiaohu set a few years ago, if it weren't for the overall slump of Taiwan's film market and the inability of their film companies to survive, the Bamboo Union Gang would not have hemorrhaged." ”

Shaw sighed and said, "I can't imagine that copies are so valuable on the black market, or they would have earned more if they hadn't been released in Hong Kong for a week." ”

"Who's to say it isn't." Shen Zhong was also full of emotion, to be honest, he didn't expect Wang Yu to raise the price so high, you must know that this copy was completely given to him by Wang Xiaohu for free, and the purchase of agency distribution rights through formal channels throughout Southeast Asia is only about 2 million Hong Kong dollars.

And the Bamboo Union Gang raised it to 9 million this time, and it is not difficult to see their confidence in the box office of "Myth". As for how the Bamboo Union Gang arranges the screening in Taiwan to make this money, it is not something that Shen Zhong and others are considering.

The two old foxes talked and laughed, and after a while, Wang Xiaohu finally arrived at Yingji Chaxun, and before his ass was hot, Run Run Shaw shouted loudly: "Xiaohu, ask Old Man Shen for money, he just sold a copy of "Mythology" that you gave him for free on the black market for 9 million, haha!" ”

Wang Xiaohu was confused, grinned and asked, "What 9 million?"

Shen Zhong coughed twice and then told the ins and outs of the matter, and Wang Xiaohu simply laughed.

"Ouch, isn't it, Taiwanese filmmakers can't wait?"

Shen Zhong shook his head and blew the tea and said, "It's not that I can't wait, it's you old and young foxes who have driven people to a dead end." ”

Wang Xiaohu stopped hearing this: "What do you mean that we have driven others to a dead end, is it their own Taiwanese political axe to do a good job?" ”

"That's it!" Run Run Shaw also followed the gang and said: "Xiaohu and I are wronged!" If you want to talk about the old fox, you're the only one in this house! Unexpectedly, the Bamboo Union Gang of 9 million people! ”

"I didn't force them with a knife, they volunteered." Shen Zhong poured tea for Wang Xiaohu and said, "Xiaohu, don't worry, I'll give you half of this money." We are still more concerned about righteousness. ”

"It's only half, you're stingy enough, you're doing a business!" Shaw glared and said, it was clear that he was not satisfied with such a share of the spoils.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay if you don't want it." Wang Xiaohu said with a smile: "These are all earned by Shen Laodou himself with his ability. ”

"Look at how sensible the little tiger is!" Shen Zhong stretched out his finger and pointed at Run Run Shaw, and said angrily: "Old buckle! ”

"You're just old buckle!" Run Run Shaw blew his beard and glared, and the two old urchins pinched each other for a long time, and finally returned to their seats under Wang Xiaohu's persuasion.

"Obviously, the behavior of the Bamboo Union Gang this time is a test of Taiwan's political axe."

After the trouble, Wang Xiaohu frowned slightly and said: "In other words, if the Bamboo Union Gang succeeds this time, then the Taiwanese film industry will return to the previous situation, at least, at least for the Bamboo Union Gang, this is a good thing, because they can take the opportunity to expand their penetration into the film industry." ”

Run Run Shaw nodded, "These things are not something we should worry about, as long as Old Man Shen doesn't do anything that endangers the Hong Kong film industry, it doesn't matter." ”

Shen Zhong rolled his old eyes angrily and said: "I still know some measure, after all, everyone is a regular customer, and the relationship is not ordinary, but some crumbs don't understand the rules, Xiaohu, I invited you to come this time just to tell you." ”

"What?" Wang Xiaohu grabbed a piece of dim sum and stuffed it into his mouth.

"New Ngee An has begun to support Siyuan."

"Oh." Wang Xiaohu took a sip of tea, rushed down the dim sum in his mouth and said, "Xiang Lao Shi still can't hold his breath after all, hehe." ”

Calculating the time, it should be Xinyi'an's turn to intervene in the entertainment industry, but Wang Xiaohu didn't expect Xiang Huaqiang to be so forbearing, and he had been forbearance for so many years.

"Oh what? Aren't you worried at all? Shen Zhong said.

"Worried about what? Lao Dou, aren't you staring at them, if Xiang Huaqiang does something that breaks the rules, let's join forces to suppress it! Wang Xiaohu shrugged, to be honest, he now has the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Union in his hands, 14k help behind him, and the support of the Hong Kong police and the Hong Kong Governor, and a mere Xiang Huaqiang is no longer a threat in his eyes.

"When I'm done with the screening work in the mainland, I'll find time to talk to Huaqiang." Wang Xiaohu poured tea for the two old men, "I have to go to the two old beans one by one." ”

"It should."

"A must."

Shen Zhong and Run Run Shaw said obligedly

"Myth" was released in Hong Kong for a full month, and directly reached 16 million Hong Kong dollars, counting the 12 million copyrights sold in Southeast Asia, and the small more than 2 million brought by scattered theaters, the overall income reached 30 million Hong Kong dollars.

At this point, Wang Xiaohu's joy is not as strong as when it was first released in North America, but he is still very happy and took out 6 million Hong Kong dollars as a dividend, and all the personnel who participated in the filming of "Mythology" received a lot of red envelopes according to their positions and performance in the shooting.

Wang Xiaohu's red envelope to Li Bihua was 500,000, Li Bihua was flattered and refused to accept the red envelope, until Wang Xiaohu said that the sequel to "Myth" still relied on her knife, she reluctantly accepted it, and said that this was a prepaid script adaptation fee.

Wang Xiaohu doesn't care what she thinks, anyway, when the sequel to "Mythology" is filmed, he will give money according to the contract, for a talented writer like Li Bihua, Wang Xiaohu is very important, after all, Li Bihua's novel is very valuable for adaptation.

After tossing for more than two years, the elites of Concord Company have spent on a drama of "Mythology", resulting in the fact that the five major satellite companies of Concord have not put a movie on the market this year, so when waiting for news from the mainland, Wang Xiaohu squatted in the office to review the submitted script.

Not to mention, a lot of scripts have been tossed out from the five major satellite companies after the new combination.

Among them, Sammo Hung submitted four scripts at once, namely "Tooth Throwing Tiger", "Tiger Field Chicken", "Ghost Fighting Ghost", and "Involuntarily". In Wang Xiaohu's impression, these are all films starring or producing by Sammo Hung or producers.

Among them, "Tiger and Field Chicken" is directed by director Mai Jia, starring Sammo Hung and Lau Ka-wing, etc., the script mainly tells the relationship between the protagonist Tiger and Tian Chicken, who are also enemies and friends, and the story of the two finally facing difficulties and working together to fight against the enemy, and finally turning enemies into friends.

Wang Xiaohu just took a general look and directly passed the application.

Yuan Heping submitted two scripts, namely "The Brave and Fearless" and "Qimen Dunjia".

Wang Xiaohu began to laugh when he saw "Qimen Dunjia", because this means that the eighth master has entered the second style era of his life, that is, the kind of masterpiece similar to the magic style.

It's just that in this regard, Sammo Hung is far better than Yuan Heping's development, after all, the zombie series was bred after "Ghost Fight".

"Hey, these two guys are somewhat influenced by "Mythology"!" Wang Xiaohu said with emotion, if you think about it carefully, "Myth" contains elements in this regard, wouldn't it be a waste if the two powerful generals didn't take the opportunity to practice?

Wang Xiaohu passed directly with a stroke of his pen, the more time it came, the more he should stand behind Sammo Hung and Yuan Heping to support them, instead of negating the blow, they will have to take charge of themselves sooner or later, and sooner or later they will have to find their own most suitable style in practice.

As their friend, brother, Wang Xiaohu can't do too much intervention.

The Xu brothers learned from the experience of "Best Partner" in Xinyicheng and decided to start filming "Modern Bodyguard" this year, which can be regarded as taking the right route, but the dynasty ruled by the Xu brothers will also go downhill with "Modern Bodyguard"!

Wang Xiaohu shook his head and sighed, the next thing to read is the script submitted by Jackie Chan, Jackie Chan plans to have only one play this year, "Young Master Dragon".

Pass, pass, pass!

This is the first time that Wang Xiaohu feels that it is so easy to review the script, so he directly called Li Shaonan into the office and asked him to be responsible for polishing all the scripts to see if there is anything that needs to be modified.

After finishing these things, Wang Xiaohu began to think about how to go next.

It's now the early 80s, and Hong Kong films have gradually become regular, and in addition to being busy impacting Hollywood, I seem to have forgotten a very important thing. After racking his brains and thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly realized!

But he forgot about his wife Zhao Yazhi's development route in TV.

According to the development of history, Zhao Yazhi should have finished filming "Chu Liuxiang" with Zheng Shaoqiu in the past few years and became the leading actress of TVB, and became a household name and hot star in Hong Kong and Taiwan, but under the butterfly effect, Zhao Yazhi only filmed one "Jingwumen" on TVB, and was busy shooting movies the rest of the time.

Especially for more than a year, she has been carefully planning "Mythology", and has achieved great success, and her acting skills are even more pure.

"If you shoot "Chu Liuxiang" again, will it be a little inappropriate?" Wang Xiaohu touched his chin and groaned, after all, in "Chu Liuxiang", Zhao Yazhi played Su Rongrong, one of the confidantes of the thief, and now, his wife's reputation is already very popular, he naturally won't let his wife be a foil for Zheng Shaoqiu, and he can't play the role of the thief himself.

Oh, after thinking of this, Wang Xiaohu was embarrassed, should he shoot "Chu Liuxiang" or not? ——

You say, shoot, or don't shoot? Speed message, give me an answer!
