"My good friend, I can't believe why you came to Hong Kong." After shaking hands, Li Yihua asked with a look of surprise.

The staff said that a foreigner wanted to find himself by name, he scratched his head and thought for a long time, but to no avail, he hurried back, but he didn't expect it to be William of the Imperial Gate, the first person to eat crabs in Venice.

"Hello Director Li, I didn't expect it to be quite difficult to meet you." William jokingly said, "As soon as I got off the plane, I asked about your name, not many people know about it, or did I say that Longsheng Pictures was pulled here, I asked the front desk lady, and it took me a long time to find you, it seems that next time I want to say that someone will find Yi Shao." ”

Li Yihua was stunned for a moment, he really didn't know how to answer, so he had to smile at him, which was a return gift.

"Yi Shao, this time I'm here to tell you good news." In order to enhance the effect, William paused deliberately and said slowly, "As of the time I left, "Saw Horror" has exceeded 100 million at the box office in North America. ”

"The North American box office broke 100 million?" Li Yihua was so surprised that he opened his mouth wide and didn't speak, his eyes were like walnuts, and after a long time, he licked his dry mouth and said, "Are you talking about dollars?" ”

William looked at the surprised Li Yihua and smiled, but he didn't expect this young director to also have a moment, "Of course it's dollars!" ”

Fu Baorong's eyeballs almost didn't pop out of his sockets, the movie "Chainsaw" seems to be too profitable, the box office exceeded 3 billion yuan, and there is news that the North American box office has exceeded 100 million, it is really a good movie, which makes more money than a bad movie.

He began to fold his fingers and calculate over there, 30% of the box office share is 30 million US dollars, oh, the global box office of "Chainsaw" has reached 300 million Hong Kong dollars, which is really not an ordinary way to make money.

not only gained the box office, but also gained fame and entered the international market, which is another Chinese in North America after Bruce Lee. Especially in Yueben, the excellent thrilling effect of this film has been greatly praised by Yueben fans. Under all kinds of word-of-mouth and praise, "Chainsaw" directly topped the annual box office champion and became the highest-grossing Hong Kong film in the history of Yueben, and even with several leading actors, it became the most popular foreign actor in the hearts of Yueben fans.

invested 1 million Hong Kong dollars, in exchange for nearly 300 million Hong Kong dollars, many film companies have made movies together that do not make as much money as Li Yihua's movie, this matter spreads, and I don't know how the bosses of those film companies feel in their hearts.

"Then Mr. William won't come to Hong Kong just to say hello to me, right?" Looking at William who was leisurely drinking tea on the side, Li Yihua didn't think that he was just here to report the good news to himself, the box office exceeded 100 million box office, just make a transatlantic phone call, there is no need to run in person.

"Haha, Yi Shao is really fast-talking!" William put down the teacup and looked at Li Yihua, who had returned to calm so quickly in front of him, hey! Just this calm surname is much stronger than himself, and said, ""Chainsaw has achieved such a huge success in North America, and the upper echelons of our emperor are very optimistic about Hong Kong movies. ”

Introducing to North America? Fu Baorong was stunned, Li Yihua was also stunned, he didn't expect that a "Chainsaw" would attract the attention of Dimen Company, and Dimen, who tasted the sweetness, also wanted to introduce Hong Kong movies, maybe this is the butterfly effect!

But after the joy, Li Yihua regained his calm, it is good that Hong Kong films can enter the North American market, but he knows in Hong Kong that most of the movies made in Hong Kong are comedies, and such movies really rarely cater to the tastes of American audiences. Besides, Li Yihua doesn't want to close the North American market that he has finally opened again.

Look at the movies released in Hong Kong now, all horror films, hey, the last time Hong Kong was ruined by following the trend to make films, following the trend and rushing to shoot is like a cancer growing in Hong Kong films, the threshold for film production is low, and low-level inferior movies will be flooded.

Li Yihua didn't answer, but asked about another thing.

"William, I'm planning to make a sci-fi blockbuster right now, I wonder if your company is interested?"

"Science fiction movies? Yi Shao, your movements are quite fast, the movie has not yet been painted, and here you are starting to make a new film. William said in surprise, "Science fiction films are not easy to make, I don't know how much you invested in this film and how long it will take to shoot." ”

"Invest 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, shoot slowly in two days, and if it goes well, it will take one day."

"A HK$100,000 sci-fi blockbuster?" William's first reaction when he heard it was a joke, science fiction films are the most money-burning, and he just wants to make a science fiction film for only 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, isn't it crazy to burn anything, and asked uncertainly, "Yi Shao, are you talking about science fiction films?" ”

"Yes, a science fiction film of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, filming for up to two days,"

"This" William hesitated for a long time, and said very unrighteously, "Yi Shao, I can't promise you this in advance, I want to see the effect of your movie." If the shooting is good, we can act as an agent; If the shooting is not good, it will be embarrassing."

"There's no problem with that."

Li Yihua is still very confident in this movie, you must know that "This Man is from Earth" has won tens of millions of dollars at the box office in later generations. The improved version of the script is only strong and not weak, and the box office must be guaranteed.

was talking about the movie, but Li Yihua suddenly asked, "William, do you plan to stay in Hong Kong this time?" ”

"Yes, Hong Kong films have developed very rapidly in recent years, and it is precisely because of this that we plan to open a branch in Hong Kong and introduce Hong Kong films."

"That's great! In the future, we will work together to make money. Li Yihua patted his head and said happily. With William in Hong Kong, he will save himself from running to North America to run theaters in the future.

After talking to William, Li Yihua began to be busy with the new movie again.

The main scene of the filming was in a rented villa with a garden, which is a relatively large cost and expense in this 100,000 Hong Kong dollar movie, as well as preparing some antique models and some ancient paintings.

The story of this movie can basically be called bizarre, but the shooting is not complicated, I asked the schedules of each actor, and then arranged the shooting time. For these veteran actors, filming is not a problem, the main thing is a matter of time, as long as the time is mediated, they can shoot immediately.
