"Honggu returned to Hong Kong for five million to film, and Dark Horse International spent a huge amount of money to start filming literary films!"

Two days later, the Oriental Daily Daily reported an exclusive report that shocked Hong Kong. Everyone was shocked by Zhong Chuhong's salary of 5 million, which even exceeded the news that Dark Horse International was ready to invest 15 million to start filming the literary film "Autumn Fairy Tale".

In this year's Chinese New Year, at the premiere of "Sword and Horse", Chen Ping'an said that Zhong Chuhong took over the filming of "The True Color of Money" in the United States, with a salary of 500,000 US dollars; The Dark Horse International column of "Oriental Daily" will introduce Zhong Chuhong's movements in Hollywood from time to time, and it has also been reported that her salary has reached 800,000 US dollars; However, for Hong Kong citizens, the United States is still a little distant, but today it is different, and it is really 5 million.

Is there an actress in Hong Kong who is paid more than one million? Cheng Long's salary is nothing more than that!

In addition to Zhong Chuhong's huge salary, there is also a detailed report on Dark Horse International's investment of 15 million to shoot literary films, and it is also emphasized in the report that this is the result of Chen Ping'an's efforts to defy public opinion, which also makes Hong Kong citizens feel in a trance.

What is the situation of literary films, most Hong Kong people know well, and it is the norm to applaud whether they are popular or not. The box office of "Dao Ma Dan", which was released during the Spring Festival this year, has set a record of 22 million for Hong Kong literary films, but the problem is that the cost of "Dao Ma Dan" is only a few million, and if it is increased by 15 million, even if the box office is 22 million, it will not make a profit.

Could it be that Chen Ping'an thinks that the box office of this "Autumn Fairy Tale" will be super high and even reach 30 million?

There is also a piece of news in the report that has attracted the attention of Hong Kong citizens. The screenwriter of "Autumn Fairy Tale" is Luo Qirui, the director is Zhang Wanting, the second of the immigration trilogy of husband and wife, and the whole movie has nothing to do with Chen Ping'an from the script to the director's shooting. And Chen Ping'an also took the initiative to ask Ying to apply to director Zhang Wanting to play the leading role, which is the first time in history that Chen Ping'an has appeared in a movie as a pure actor.

Is "Autumn Fairy Tale" so good? Chen Ping'an made a series of almost crazy moves, and the hearts of Hong Kong citizens were full of question marks.

This is the effect that Chen Ping'an wants.

The public here is not just Hong Kong citizens. Tongguò A series of successful films, Dark Horse International has established a good reputation in Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, and Nanyang, especially the literary films of Dark Horse International, after taking over the banner from Shaw Brothers, there is a momentum of development and recognition by many parties.

Japan, as one of the largest box offices in Southeast Asia, with "The Love of People and Ghosts", Chen Ping'an and Zhong Chuhong have become the screen couple in the hearts of the Japanese, and they have a broad market in Japan, second only to Cheng Long.

Because of this news, the newspaper "Oriental Daily" was out of stock again that day, and it took two reprints to barely meet the requirements of Hong Kong citizens, selling more than 200,000 copies, which made many newspapers jealous.

You must know that before "Oriental Daily" became Chen Ping'an's "fan", the sales volume was only a little over 100,000 copies, and with the help of Chen Ping'an and Dark Horse International, the sales exceeded 150,000.

After the sales statistics came out, the Ma brothers called Chen Ping'an to express their gratitude and invited Chen Ping'an to dinner. Chen Ping'an politely rejected the other party's kindness, saying that these things are mutually beneficial, and the cooperation between the two sides will be very long in the future.

Following the Oriental Daily, the "black" of "Sing Tao Daily" and the "neutrality" of "Ming Pao" reported on this matter at the same time.

"Discerning reproduction or gutter capsizing" is the title of "Ming Pao". In the article, he first had a positive attitude towards Chen Ping'an's invitation to Zhong Chuhong to return to Hong Kong for filming, saying that he was a trustworthy person, and the promise made at the premiere of "Dao Ma Dan" was fulfilled. Then euphemistically asked, is it a bit child's play to start filming 15 million literary films, they do not deny Dark Horse International's persistence and achievements in literary films, but is the investment of 15 million too much for literary films, and if it fails, will it hurt Dark Horse International's enthusiasm for literary films?

"Sing Tao Daily" did not have so many problems, and directly pointed out that this was one of the signs of Chen Ping'an's blind expansion of self-confidence again. Looking at the Hong Kong film industry for decades, there has never been such a big investment in literary films, either Chen Ping'an is now carried away by success, or Chen Ping'an blindly worships the foreign, thinking that inviting back Zhong Chuhong, who has already gained a firm foothold in the United States, will make the box office a hit.

They warned Chen Ping'an that the success of a movie will not be just because of the joining of a big-name actor, especially literary films that are different from commercial films. In addition, they are still worried about Chen Ping'an's disruption of the Hong Kong film industry, Zhong Chuhong's salary is too high, regardless of the success of "Autumn Fairy Tale", such a high salary will cause hidden worries to the Hong Kong film industry.

In fact, the salary of five million was not proposed by Zhong Chuhong. She received a call from Chen Ping'an in the United States, and learned that Chen Ping'an would fly to the United States after a while to co-star in "Autumn Fairy Tale" with her, and she was full of joy. As for the salary, she said that she would be able to follow the Hong Kong market, she didn't care about the salary, what she cared about was that Chen Ping'an could fly to the United States to accompany her.

When she heard that Chen Ping'an insisted on giving her a salary of 5 million and shaping her into the most valuable actress in Hong Kong, the joy in her heart was indescribable. Especially Chen Ping'an's sentence "You are my woman, mine is yours, what is just five million", which made Zhong Chuhong's heart infinitely tender, and he made a phone porridge for nearly an hour.

In addition to being Zhong Chuhong's own woman, Chen Ping'an also did this for another reason, that is, to let Hong Kong filmmakers understand that the most obvious and intuitive benefits brought by entering Hollywood. What is the old nest in Hong Kong? Can't you be like Zou Wenhuai, based on Hong Kong, and keep trying to challenge Hollywood?

There must be drawbacks to doing this, at least Chen Ping'an's women express their dissatisfaction in different ways. Lin Yixia and Zhou Haimei were well-behaved, and they called and said that they were very envious of Zhong Chuhong's super high value; Wang Guxian tried his best to squeeze Chen Ping'an dry that night, even if she herself was like a puddle of soft mud, she still grabbed Chen Ping'an's little brother and asked him to level out a bowl of water, otherwise she would go out and come again.

This is just a small episode, Chen Ping'an easily settled.

As more and more newspapers began to report on this matter, "Autumn Fairy Tale" spread all over Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan and Nanyang, and many people were curious about this 15 million investment literary film, and they were faintly looking forward to it.

All of them were carried out according to Chen Ping'an's expectations, including the painting of "The Wife Killer Duo".

"The Wife Killer Duo" was only released for three weeks, and the box office of 14 million was not bad, but it did not meet Golden Harvest's expectations. This comedy that focuses on Zhou Runfa, Zhong Zhentao, Anita Mui, and Wang Guxian, Golden Harvest hopes to win the second round of confrontation with Dark Horse International, but it turns out to be unfulfilled and loses to "Ghost Fighting Zombies" directed by Wang Jing, and it was defeated very badly.

The box office of the latter has reached more than 23 million, surpassing Wu Yusen's "Sequel to the True Colors of Heroes" and "Best Lucky Star", leading the summer vacation movie box office list, and is only one step away from the summer vacation box office champion.

The successor to "The Wife Killer Duo" is also the highlight of Golden Harvest's high hopes - the second part of "Mr. Zombie", "Zombie Family". is also directed by Liu Guanwei, and the main actors Lin Zhenglang, Li Saifeng, Lou Nanguang and others in the previous part continue to play the starring roles, and several generals such as Yuan Biao and Zhong Fa have also been added, with a strong lineup.

In the past six months or so, countless zombie films have emerged in the Hong Kong film industry, and even "Ghost Fighting Zombies" is suspected of following the trend. Even if many zombie films follow the trend have Lin Zhenglang starring, in the eyes of the audience, "Zombie Family" is an authentic zombie film, and it caused a sensation as soon as it was released.

Li Saifeng also became one of the most beautiful actresses this summer with this film, and her popularity is on par with Wang Guxian.

The release of "Zombie Family" has had a big impact on the "Double Dragon Spitting Pearl" and "Flying Antelope" that are being screened. Hong Jinbao once half-jokingly complained to Cheng Long, saying that Debao was played miserably by Jiahe this summer, and Pan Disheng almost jumped in the office several times to scold his mother.

This summer, Golden Harvest is ambitious. made a sudden move, controlled the rhythm from the beginning, and forced the other three theaters to follow his rhythm.

Even though Hong Jinbao and Golden Harvest have a close relationship, Debao still became the biggest victim, and the film schedule was disrupted. "Royal Warrior", which was originally the highlight of the summer vacation and was ready to make a good start, had to be adjusted to the second round, and the box office of "Dragon in the Rivers and Lakes", which was hastily prepared, was mediocre, and even infected "Royal Warrior", and failed to break through the 20 million box office as Debao wished.

As for the new art city, there are many internal problems, even without Golden Harvest, it is difficult to improve.

Dark Horse International was also disturbed to a certain extent at first, and the theater redid the filming plan, and the release order of "The Sequel to the True Colors of Heroes" and "Ghost Fighting Zombies" was reversed, and "Overlord Flower" was filmed in a hurry...... That's pretty much all there is to it. Although it was not disturbed much, the rhythm was controlled by Jiahe.

The release of "Zombie Family" marks the official failure of Golden Harvest's plan this summer, and it has also lost control of the rhythm, because "Ghost Fighting Zombies" has not been painted and has not been impacted. Only ten screening theaters are still being screened, maintaining an attendance rate of six or seven percent, how much impact can it be affected?

More than 30 other screening halls of the Dark Horse Cinema Line are all screening "Good Boy: The Little Dragon Out of the Mountain" produced by Lianhai Pictures...... This one did suffer, but it cleared the way for the upcoming "Overlord Flower". "Zombie Family" continues the popularity of "Mr. Zombie", and Chen Ping'an is not sure whether the "Overlord Flower" with the theme of "Police Flower" can win "Zombie Family".

If the painting of "The Wife Killer Duo" was expected by Chen Ping'an, then the sudden painting of "Leaping Antelope" completely exceeded his expectations, and it also made his eyes once again cast his attention to the stormy New Art City. R1152
