Chapter 29 Li Yihua's family background

With the arrival of the end of 1983, the movie war is also becoming popular, "Food Truck" beat many blockbuster films of the same period, and achieved brilliant results, making Sammo Hung smile when he sees everyone, and the box office of "Food Truck" shocked the Hong Kong film industry!

The movies originally planned to be released by Shaw Brothers and New Arts City at the same time have compressed the box office results because of the strong box office of "Food Truck", and they still firmly occupy part of the schedule of Golden Harvest Cinemas near the end of the year, "Fast Food Truck" has been released for more than a month, and it is time for the next painting, and the box office has reached a total of 23 million.

The film's unexpected box office realisation put pressure on companies other than Golden Harvest, and New Arts City launched two movies in succession, hoping to win at the end of the year, but the quality was not as good as "Food Truck", and the box office results after the release were not satisfactory.

At the end of the year, the Hong Kong film market was dominated by many people, which many people did not expect. In order to cope with such a situation, Xinyicheng broke the monopoly of "Food Truck" and launched "The Best Partner".

"Best Partner: The Great Miracle" inherited the aftermath of "Best Partner: The Bald Detective", and as soon as it was released, it overwhelmed major films and quickly dominated the entire Hong Kong market, and even "Food Truck" was trampled under the feet, creating a dominance.

"Blow the bottle, blow it all in one go."

"Yes, this time it must be blown."

This is the place where Sammo Hung "Fast Food Truck" set up a celebration banquet, and did not invite any big-name stars, basically all of them are members of the Hong family's class, so there is no need for any etiquette and reserve, and there is no buffet, several large tables are set up, lobster and abalone are on every table, and bundles of beer are stacked in the corners of the table.

"Here's one million, it's your share of the movie, and the share in the overseas market will have to wait for a while, and it won't be given to you until it's paid off." Sammo Hung took out a check from his pocket and handed it to Li Yihua.

"It's okay, I'm relieved that Brother Hong will do things." Li Yihua was very excited, but he pretended to be serious and took a sip of beer, this was the first time Li Yihua accepted such a huge amount of money, in this era, this money is enough to buy a car and a house.

"Food Truck" was released in Hong Kong for a month and earned a total of 23.21 million at the box office, temporarily ranking first among all Hong Kong films that have been released this year. It seems that this year's box office champion was only between "Best Partner: The Great Miracle" and "Food Truck".

"Wow, one million, Andy, you're rich, if you don't eat a lot, I will never let you go." Yuan Biao patted Li Yihua's shoulder and said loudly to threaten Li Yihua.

"Okay, this is all trivial, eat this celebration feast today, and tomorrow I will invite you, shark fin abalone can be ordered at that time." With one million in hand, Li Yihua will not be so stingy, patting his chest and saying.

"I knew that Andy wouldn't be stingy, your friend is really interesting." Jackie Chan drank a large glass of beer, and was also infected by Li Yihua's arrogance, and shouted at the door.

"Andy, what are your plans for next year?" Sammo Hung held the wine glass and shook it, looking at Li Yihua in front of him with a confused expression.

"It's nothing, I just plan to make a movie of my own, and I still need to trouble Brother Hong when the time comes." Li Yihua did not hide Sammo Hung in the slightest and said what he thought in his heart.

"Making a movie is not an easy task, you must think clearly, don't watch making movies is very profitable, it is all occasional, otherwise the loss is ten likely." Sammo Hung woke up after drinking, sat down next to Li Yihua in the aisle, and kindly dissuaded Li Yihua.

"I know that, but I still like to give it a try, and after a period of exposure, I found that I was quite suitable for a film career." Li Yihua knew that Sammo Hung was for his own good, but he still insisted on it for his own ideals.

"Okay, you should fight when you are young, if you need help, Brother Hong will definitely help." Brother Hong said as boldly as ever.

"Thank you, Brother Hong, I will definitely trouble you then, but don't bother me."

"By the way, Andy, can you write me a script?" Sammo Hung said embarrassedly, asking someone else for a script can be said to be Sammo Hung's first thing to do, and it is inevitable that there is a fever on his face.

"There is no problem, as long as Brother Hong speaks, he can do it at any time." Li Yihua looked at Sammo Hung, whose face was flushed in front of him, and laughed out loud.

"Don't laugh, brother, doesn't there be a script to shoot? You don't know how difficult it is to find a good script, and you don't know what your head thinks, a simple plot turns decay into magic in your hands. Sammo Hung was not afraid of losing face, and told Li Yihua the truth.

Li Yihua and Sammo Hung talked for a long time, until the celebration banquet ended, Li Yihua returned home, looked at the empty room, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, it seems that the matter of the house will be solved as soon as possible.

"Ming Pao" Building, Martial Arts Screenwriting Department.

"Sir, who are you looking for?" A staff member asked curiously.

"I'm Li Yihua, the author of the serial novel "Ethereal Journey" in your newspaper, and I want to talk to the editor-in-chief of your newspaper about something today!" Li Yihua looked at the girl at the front desk with a smile and said.

"What? You are Li Yihua. The young girl looked at the ordinary boy in front of her in surprise and couldn't believe it. Please come in, the editor-in-chief has already explained, you can go to the editor-in-chief's office at any time. The young girl smiled sweetly.

Seeing Li Yihua walk into the office, the editor-in-chief quickly stood up, stretched out his hands to hold Li Yihua's hand tightly, and said with emotion, "You are the savior of the screenwriter of "Martial Arts", if you don't know what will happen now." ”

"Editor-in-chief, you're polite, I'm here to ask for money today." Li Yihua looked at the excited editor-in-chief and said bluntly.

"Huh. This is as it should be, earned by labor. The editor-in-chief looked at Li Yihua with a confident face, and didn't expect how direct it would be.

"Your copyright and physical book are published, a total of 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars, this is a check for your acceptance." The editor-in-chief took out the check from the drawer and handed it to Li Yihua.

"Thank you, editor-in-chief, I won't disturb your work, I'll go first." Li Yihua looked at it calmly, but he was actually excited in his heart.

"Andy, have you prepared the rest of the draft?" The editor-in-chief reminded Li Yihuadao.

"Please rest assured that the manuscript has been written, and it will be sent to you in two days." Li Yihua finished writing the manuscript of "Ethereal Journey" in his free time.

Li Yihua walked out of "Ming Pao", and now he has assets of 2.5 million, and he can't help but be excited!!
