It is said that Yongsheng Entertainment asked Huasheng to ask Wu Siyuan, chairman of the Academy Awards, to nominate his film "Waiting for Dawn" to be shortlisted for the Golden Statue, and Wu Siyuan had a small calculation in his heart. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Hehe, yes, I watched this drama of your Yongsheng Entertainment, the whole drama is impressive, it is a rare good film! However, the quality of the films shortlisted for the Academy Awards this time is also excellent, and they are all sincere works of major film companies. ”

"Those who can work hard! Chairman Wu has every opportunity, but it is a blessing for us Hong Kong filmmakers! It just so happens that our company has an entertainment city to open recently, if Chairman Wu feels interested, you can take the time to go over to play, eat, drink and have fun in one stop, I will ensure that you have fun! ”

"You don't have to eat, drink, and be merry. I don't have the time and I don't have the concentration to do that, what if I get addicted?! You can't let the boss pay for you every time! Wu Siyuan took a puff of cigarette with a smile in his hand.

Pick, old fox!

Xiang Huasheng despised the other party's greed in his heart, and said with a smile: "This is easy to say, if Chairman Wu is willing to condescend to the noble, our entertainment city is also very welcome to add another new shareholder!" ”

"Shareholders? Hehe, this is not good, I heard that your casino is making money every day, wouldn't it be ...... for me to do this?"

"Chairman Wu said with a smile, I believe that with your joining, the performance of the entertainment city club will be even higher in the future!"

"Hehe, since you are so sincere, if I refrain from resigning, I can't say anything!" Wu Siyuan "hesitated" for most of the day, and then said decisively, as if he was really embarrassed.

Xiang Huasheng had already pierced his lungs in his heart, and took the opportunity to laugh and say: "Then our "Waiting for Dawn" ......"

"Hehe, don't worry, such a good play. Definitely not a pearl dust! Wu Siyuan smiled meaningfully.

Hong Kong Yongsheng Entertainment Film Company's "Waiting for the Dawn", which has not yet been painted, has been designated as the opening film by the Hong Kong Film Awards Organizing Committee, and directly participated in the Academy Awards.

For such a "jump" level of news, people from all walks of life have commented, some people say that Yongsheng Entertainment has gone through the back door, some people say that the Academy Awards jury team has opened a small stove, and some people say. This is an "unspoken rule" that cannot be said in the entertainment industry...... In a word. All sorts of rhetoric are coming out on the ground.

In this regard, Xiang Huasheng, the CEO of Hong Kong Yongsheng Entertainment Company, who is the party concerned, stood up to refute the rumors and said: "The reason why our movie will be directly recommended is because this drama is very good, if you don't believe it, you can wait and see!" ”

And Wu Siyuan, chairman of the organizing committee of the Academy Awards, stood up and answered, "For the drama "Waiting for Dawn", it will directly advance to the next Academy Awards. I have a clear conscience! Because it's definitely a good movie! ”

The sworn shouts of both Yongsheng Film and the Academy Awards Organizing Committee made Hong Kong audiences who didn't pay much attention to this drama begin to wonder, what kind of drama is "Waiting for Dawn"? Why is it so revered? Has Fa Ge's acting skills improved again?

Meanwhile. Some good people began to study the relationship between Fa Ge and Chen Xiaotang. was originally a close friend, but now they are their own "enemies", two dramas "Jingwu Heroes" and "Waiting for Dawn". It is unknown which one will win on this battlefield without gunpowder.

Fa Ge's prodigal son-type bohemian and cynical; Chen Xiaotang is a talented and proud person, and he is suave.

Who can stand out in the play?

Who can sweep Xiangjiang with movies. Smiling proud years?!

Everything awaits the start of the premiere!

In terms of Magic Shadow Entertainment, everyone in the company began to worry, originally the publicity of this drama "Jingwu Hero" was full of limelight, but with the rise of "Waiting for the Dawn", it has obviously dimmed.

Immediately, people like the fat man Wang Jing, Le Sheng Huang Zhan, Gu Jiahui and others began to worry about the box office of this play.

In the Magic Shadow Entertainment office, the fat man came over with a newspaper and said: "Ah Tang, Yongsheng has decided to donate 10% of the ticket revenue from the premiere of "Waiting for Dawn" to the Hong Kong Red Cross, heh, this is obviously stealing the limelight from you, the charity ambassador!" ”

"Donate? Take it and I'll take a look! Chen Xiaotang glanced at the newspaper when he heard this, and then threw it on the table with a smile and said, "Do you want to use this move to boost popularity?" Fatty, you immediately contact influential newspapers such as "Ming Pao" and "Oriental Daily" and tell them that on the day of the premiere of Magic Shadow Entertainment, each audience can put the ticket stub into the charity box, and we will cash the full ticket price according to the number of ticket stubs, and under the supervision of the philanthropist, a one-time donation to the Children's Charity Fund! ”

Chen Xiaotang's trick is absolutely ruthless enough, first of all, he asked the audience to participate in the disguised donation activities, and benefited the public in the name of charity.

Secondly, the donation object is the Hong Kong Children's Charity Foundation, not the Red Cross. Children have always been a vulnerable group, and the donation is very targeted, and Chen Xiaotang himself has done welfare activities in the orphanage, which can be described as a deep feeling.

Finally, Chen Xiaotang emphasized that the full amount of donations under the supervision of philanthropists is, in a sense, directly dispelled people's doubts about shouting slogans but not donating a dime. As a result, it has been highly recognized and supported by the people of Hong Kong.

These are the results of Chen Xiaotang's careful consideration, but for the rest of Shadow Entertainment, it seems a little too crazy.

"What, Tang Zai, are you crazy? It's OK for you to do charity yourself, and you still have to pull the company into the water? You must know that our company has just started, and it is not a big company with a thick waist! When the old man Huang Zhan heard this, he immediately raised an objection: "What's more, our obvious plan for a new drama has been introduced, and all of them will need money at that time, and if the funds are insufficient, what can we do?" Are we going to ask for food with a bowl and a stick?! ”

Chen Xiaotang raised his eyebrows and said, "Uncle Zhan, you have to open your eyes to the long-term interests, what is the purpose of our donation?" It is not to compete with Yongsheng Entertainment, but to shape the brand image of our company. For a long time, Magic Shadow Entertainment has developed rapidly, and has been praised by the outside world as a 'money-making machine'. Say we're just trying to make money. But they don't pay attention to society. I didn't care about it before, but since I became a charity ambassador, I have come to understand that the image of a company is more important than making money from movies! ”

"McDonald's, Coca-Cola, and those famous clothing brands, why is the brand value alone sky-high? It's not because they're well-funded and their companies are strong. It's because of the trust and respect people have for them! Feel like they're worth the price! But where does that trust and respect come from? It's not about price reduction. Engaging in promotions is not a shouting on the street, but through a variety of undertakings such as charity, shaping their imagination in people's hearts! ”

"If Magic Shadow Entertainment wants to become bigger and stronger, it must know how to make trade-offs, and there is a give-and-take. And in the future, we will definitely get dozens of times more than what we pay now! ”

"Well, you have ..... seem to have some point." Huang Zhan helped his glasses with some surprise, "But I still feel sorry for this money!" ”

"Worried about money? Our Kirin Cinema can only accommodate 300 people at most. Half of them are special guests, who don't have to pay for tickets, and the remaining 150 people. Can you calculate the total ticket price? ”

"Yes...... 30,000 yuan! After Old Man Huang lowered his head and calculated, his face was immediately filled with an expression of "you are so bad" and said, "Haha, it turns out that we only donated 30,000 Hong Kong dollars!" ”

Chen Xiaotang stood up and said, "Yes, 30,000 Hong Kong dollars is not much, not to mention that the outside world does not know the actual number of tickets we have sold." Wouldn't it be worthwhile to think that we had donated a lot in exchange for a good name? ”

"Tang Zai, you are too cunning!" Huang Zhan smiled bitterly and said: "Yongsheng Xiang Huasheng did not hesitate to make such a big move in exchange for popularity, but he didn't expect you to move back directly to the situation with 30,000, if he knew the truth, he would definitely vomit blood!" ”

"It has nothing to do with me whether he vomits blood or not, I am also planning for the future of our Shadow Entertainment by doing this." Chen Xiaotang stood in front of the window and looked at the street scene of Hong Kong and sighed.

"Ah Tang, tell you the truth, how much will the box office of "Jingwu Heroes" reach?" Wang Jing, a fat man who had been "watching the play" next to him, couldn't help but ask.

It doesn't take much time from the filming to the completion of the film, but a lot of preparatory work has been used, as for how much the box office can be, whether it will surpass "God of Gamblers" and "Wu Zhuangyuan Su Qier", this matter has always made the fat man Wang Jing, who is the high-level of the magic shadow, very puzzled.

Chen Xiaotang shook his head and said, "It should be able to break 10 million, and I don't know the specific upper limit." ”

In fact, Chen Xiaotang has no clear reason, "Jingwu Hero" was not too ideal at the box office in the previous life.

There are a lot of action scenes in "Jingwu Heroes", Li Lianjie integrates traditional martial arts, free fighting, Western boxing, Muay Thai elbow strike, backkick in Brazilian martial arts and other martial arts, which is very layered, each martial arts scene is not simply designed to show action, it can be clearly seen that it is carefully designed to better express the characters of the movie: the film was released in Europe and the United States, once again set off a kung fu boom, and was praised by Hollywood as "the standard of action aesthetics"! It has become a milestone work in the history of world kung fu films, and has become a recognized kung fu film textbook all over the world. This is unique in kung fu movies and action stars, and even the aesthetics of the current audience are outstanding, but what people don't understand is that this film has only been released in Hong Kong for half a month, and the box office is only 16 million.

In the end, Chen Xiaotang sighed, born at the wrong time...... Although Li Bai was born when he was alive, he was called a poet immortal by later generations; Although Van Gogh was poor, he was regarded as a great painter by later generations; Although "Jingwu Hero" is not satisfactory at the box office, it is also regarded as the pinnacle of realistic kung fu!

Whether a movie or a work is good or not depends not on the box office, but more importantly, on word of mouth. Many movies or works, due to the high hype, hype and marketing means, the result is very hot at the box office, but the reputation is very poor. Such examples abound.

But now is not the 90s when Hong Kong films were weak, let alone the downturn of action movies!

It is now in Hong Kong in the 80s, although the filming conditions are subject to different restrictions, the cast has also been adjusted, the script is even different, and the content of the shooting has also changed greatly, but "Jingwu Heroes" has undergone fundamental changes except for the story has not changed, especially in the action scenes, Chen Xiaotang firmly believes that this will definitely be a milestone for Hong Kong kung fu films!

This drama has poured all Chen Xiaotang's hard work, and it can be said that it is a work that completely belongs to Chen Xiaotang.

As for what will happen at the box office, it all depends on the will of God! (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
