The 88th year is about to pass, and there are only a few days left before the New Year's Day of 89, and Dark Horse International held a year-end meeting.

As many people have said, the current management of Dark Horse International is a little chaotic, and companies such as film, television, records, distribution, investment, and comics have each held their own internal mid-year meetings, and Chen Ping'an was invited to observe.

He had no skills, so he could only participate in the internal meeting held by Dark Horse International Film Company under the pretense that he was a film director. This is also a must, as it involves the company's film shooting plans for next year.

After the year-end meeting of each company, he gathered the CEOs of each company for a tea party. Even if you don't ask about the daily management of the company, you have to listen to the work report of each company for a year at the end of the year, right?

At the year-end high-level summary meeting of Dark Horse International Film Company, Zhang Yijia summarized the company's development in the past year.

This year, the company continued to expand its profitability, and with "A Chinese Ghost Story" winning the Fantasy Film Festival award in Europe, Dark Horse International's films gradually opened up the market in Europe. The U.S. market is still tackling key problems, and the company has a number of excellent Hong Kong films released in the United States this year, but the box office is average, and the maximum is only tens of millions of dollars.

Of course, compared to the investment cost of the film, it is calculated in Hong Kong dollars, and the box office share of tens of millions of dollars is enough for the company to make a lot of money.

In South Korea, Japan and Southeast Asia, the company's influence has decreased slightly this year, because Chen Ping'an has only made one Hong Kong film this year, / it has not yet been released in other cities. However, the influence of the company's artists in these places is increasing day by day.

With Zhong Chuhong and Lin Qingxia going to the United States, Zhang Manyu is still in the training and has not yet bloomed, and Wang Guxian became the first sister. has become the most popular female star in the company and one of the top actresses in Hong Kong.

in Japan. She still retains the reputation of being the most popular foreign female star, and her starring "A Chinese Ghost Story 2" has not yet been released in Hong Kong. The Japanese side has already negotiated the issuance.

In South Korea, she appeared on the cover of Korean fashion magazines and became the dream girl of Korean men, and her dressing taste and style also caused many Korean women to follow suit.

In Taiwan, as a Taiwanese, Wang Guxian is naturally warmly welcomed and supported by the Taiwanese public and media. Any achievement she achieves will be regarded as winning glory for Taiwan. Now that Lin Qingxia has gone to the United States, she has become an important guarantee for the box office in the Taiwan market. Just like Lin Qingxia back then.

In Southeast Asia, she's equally popular, causing a frenzy of congestion, screaming and shouting whenever she appears in public.

This qiē has her own efforts, as well as Chen Ping'an's support, but more of it is the company's unremitting efforts to build.

Because Chen Ping'an mentioned that whether it was the previous Shi Nansheng period or the current Zhang Yijia period, or the brokerage company managed by Zhang Guozhong. are committed to building Wang Guxian into a top actress in Asia and one of the banners of Dark Horse International.

The company has done a lot of work for this reason, and according to Chen Ping'an's requirements, it is enough for her to shoot two or three Hong Kong films every year. It is advisable to refine not too much, and brokerage companies should check in this regard.

The exposure and popularity of actresses do not necessarily depend on a large number of movies to push up. Advertising is also a very effective way to do this.

In the past two years, Wang Guxian has taken a lot of advertisements. It is available in almost every country and region. From clothing and cosmetics to jewelry, jewelry, etc., the main streets and downtown areas of major cities. You can almost see her huge poster.

She has also become the face of several companies, covering a variety of industries such as clothing, cosmetics, jewelry, jewelry, etc., and is busy every day, flying around Asia and participating in various events. It was difficult for Chen Ping'an to see her.

As long as the two have time to get along, it must be a passionate burning of dry firewood, and they will slowly talk about what they have to say when they are finished.

For this reason, Wang Guxian is very conflicted. Although tired, she loves her busy life now, but she also understands why she has been able to achieve so much in just a few years, from a questionable newcomer in the film industry to a top star in one fell swoop.

So she really wants to spend more time with Chen Ping'an, otherwise her position in Chen Ping'an's heart is likely to be replaced by other women.

For example, Zhang Min, the relationship between the two daughters is already very harmonious, and her reputation and status in the entertainment industry are higher than Zhang Min, but Zhang Min is now gradually impacting his status.

A "My Sassy Girlfriend" made Zhang Min catch up with Wang Guxian's popularity in South Korea and catch up with Wang Group-hsien's popularity in Taiwan.

The only thing that reassures Wang Guxian is that Chen Ping'an now has a new goal, and it is two, and it is estimated that he will spend energy to support Zhou Huimin and Li Jiaxin's two daughters.

On the male star's side, with Wu Yusen and Zhou Runfa, "This Killer Is Not Too Cold", gaining a firm foothold in the United States in one fell swoop, the company set a strategy as early as the beginning of the year and praised Andy Lau as the company's first brother.

Liu Dehua is also very competitive and hard-working. In addition to filming seriously and dedicatedly, he also practiced singing skills under his apprenticeship. The most satisfying thing for the company is that even if he already knows that the company wants to support himself, he has never put up a fight with anyone, and has always maintained a humble attitude.

It's just that at this meeting, Chen Ping'an proposed two more actors - Zhou Xingchi and Wu Mengda.

The meeting link entered the filming plans of various directors, and Wang Jing, as one of the directors of the high-yield fast gunner, broke out five dramas in one go, one of which wanted to be arranged in the summer vacation, Chen Ping'an frowned.

Wang Jing was puzzled and asked, "Boss, you don't think I'm filming too much, right?" ”

"It's not." Chen Ping'an hesitated for a moment, "Did the wireless side look for you?" ”

At the premiere of "Go Left to Right", Shao Yifu personally came to cheer, and even made concessions, saying that Wireless will also follow the example of Dark Horse International and set up a special brokerage company, and the work arrangements of its artists will be handled by the brokerage company.

The general manager of this brokerage company must be Fang Yihua, who continues to ensure Shaw Brothers' control of wireless and Fang Yihua's power, but ATV can invite wireless actors to shoot TV series, and wireless can also invite ATV actors to shoot TV series.

This is just a manifestation of Shao Yifu's goodwill, and his purpose is to return to the film industry and prepare to establish the Metropolitan Film Company. As a commercial film director who is inextricably linked with wireless and the Shao family, Wang Jing is naturally particularly valued.

Shao Yifu made it clear that Wang Jing may be invited to direct a film for the Met in the future, hoping that Chen Ping'an can release him.

This must be no problem, in recent years, in addition to completing the company's films, Wang Jing has also helped Yongsheng and some other film companies film. The name of a big director of commercial films, the guarantee of the box office, there are many small and medium-sized film companies that want to invite Wang Jing as a director.

Chen Ping'an frowned, just worried that Wang Jing would not have enough time, and in addition, he was going to shoot "God of Gamblers 2", which he promised Qiu Shuzhen.

Wang Jing was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "I haven't agreed yet." ”

"It's okay, if you have free time, you can help them film, this is what I agreed with Uncle Six."

"Thank you, boss." Wang Jing let out a sigh of relief.

The Met's side is human. No matter what grievances Fang Yihua and Chen Ping'an have, as long as Fang Yihua is still good to him Wang Jing. In addition, his old bean is still wireless, and he doesn't want to be so stiff with the other party.

But he knew the grievances between Chen Ping'an and Fang Yihua, and it was difficult to choose for a while. With Chen Ping'an's nod, he was much more relaxed. Merely......

"Boss, why are you frowning?"

"I want you to shoot "God of Gamblers 2", which will be released in the summer of next year."

God of Gamblers 2!

All of you here are in good spirits.

Last year's "God of Gamblers" opened the era of the resurrection of gambling films, the high box office was staggering, and Zhou Yanfa's wonderful performance was a must. Wang Jing's script is "Supreme", which is also a gambling film, with the same theme as "God of Gamblers 2".

This is the reason why Chen Ping'an frowned, because both movies are good, and in his memory, the box office of "Supreme" is also very high.

Wang Jing thought for a while and shook his head: "Boss, I think "God of Gamblers 2" should be filmed in two years, at least until the year after next." ”

"Why?"

Because it is too close to "God of Gamblers", and "God of Gamblers" is too successful, the sequel is under a lot of pressure. And Zhou Yunfa has been developing in the United States for two years and has achieved certain achievements, and then comes back to shoot "God of Gamblers 2", which will help the publicity, word-of-mouth and box office of this movie.

Just like this year's "A Chinese Ghost Story 2" directed by Cheng Xiaodong, it's not that he didn't shoot it well, but that the shadow of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is still in the audience's mind, and many places will involuntarily carry it out. Because of preconceived notions, the film did not meet expectations at the box office in Hong Kong.

There are even some viewers who said that the replacement of the actor who played Ning Caichen was the biggest failure. He didn't show the essence of the role, and that role had already been stereotyped by Chen Ping'an, which also ruined Zhang Guorong.

What Wang Jing said was very reasonable, Chen Ping'an was thinking about it, Du Qifeng raised his hand hesitantly: "Boss, I have something to say." ”

"Oh? You said. ”

Du Qifeng was authorized by Chen Ping'an to participate in this meeting, and his current status among the company's directors is not yet among the company's big directors.

The big directors of Dark Horse International include Xu Ke, Wang Jing, Huang Baiming, Guan Jinpeng, Zhang Wanting, Zhang Yijia and others, Chen Jiashang and Cheng Xiaodong are just reluctantly.

Du Qifeng is also preparing to start a new drama next year, and the book has been found, called "The Story of Ah Lang", which is a literary film, as the first high-cost film he directed independently. Before that, he had approached Zhang Yijia with the script, and the latter couldn't say it well.

However, considering Chen Ping'an's support for literary films, Jian Yì Du Qifeng mentioned it at the year-end meeting and asked Chen Ping'an to check it.

"'Ah Lang's Story'?" Chen Ping'an's eyes lit up, "Where is the book?" ”

"I'll take it." Du Qifeng handed over the script, Chen Ping'an took it and looked at it briefly, and immediately made a decision: "You shoot well, the company fully supports it, and asks people to give money to people." You don't have to worry too much, express it according to your own ideas, and it will be released next Easter. See what I mean? ”

"Thanks, thank you boss!" Du Qifeng was very excited, everyone understood that this was a precursor to his ascension, in fact, it was already doomed from the time Chen Ping'an asked him to be the assistant director. "Boss, in this drama, I'll find Fa Ge and Mr. Zhang to star in ......" (to be continued...... R1292
