Zhang Min kissed Chen Ping'an in public, and many reporters took photos of that moment. However, they did not ask questions about the relationship between the two, because Chen Ping'an was not only "shameless" in their eyes, but also a "scoundrel", and did not understand the respect for the uncrowned kings of reporters.

In the first half of the year, when the scandal between him and Wang Guxian and Zhong Chuhong went viral, the reporter failed to get any response from him, and more importantly, he was annoyed by being forced to ask, Chen Ping'an would let people drive the reporter away very roughly, and the reporter didn't want to be bored.

Anyway, this matter will definitely appear in the newspaper tomorrow, and the twists and turns of the reporter can make up for it by himself, Chen Ping'an generally does not care about this, and seems to have a clear and self-clear attitude towards similar reports.

wants Chen Ping'an to compare and evaluate the three Christmas romance films he starred in, which is also wishful thinking. With such a superficial pit, how could Chen Ping'an jump into it?

Reporters are not in a hurry, Chen Ping'an is definitely one of the talking points in Hong Kong, and there are too many topics around him. At the end of this topic, the reporter immediately threw out a second topic - the cooperation between Dark Horse International and Far Eastern Group.

In this regard, Chen Ping'an gave a clear answer - strategic cooperation!

With the development of technology, the maturity of network technology, and the proliferation of piracy, it is difficult for a movie to sustain itself if it only relies on box office revenue. The development and in-depth development of peripheral products have become more and more important in the revenue of films.

He teamed up with Chiu Tak-kan, and the two companies collaborated to build a movie theme park on Kon Tsui Island, not only to make money, but also to point out a direction for Hong Kong filmmakers.

He made no secret of telling reporters that this theme park will be themed around his next sci-fi blockbuster. And the initial investment budget for this sci-fi film is more than half a million dollars. Due to the high technical requirements of the film, the existing technology cannot support the filming for the time being. Therefore, although the script has been created, it still needs to wait for the start-up.

Wait until his dark horse special effects studio has researched the most critical technology. The film will be launched.

Sci-fi?

The reporters were dumbfounded.

Science fiction has never been the main theme of Hong Kong films, this year's "The Legend of Wesley" produced by Xinyicheng, as well as "Magic Jade" directed by Wang Jing and other films have some sci-fi colors, but they only integrate sci-fi elements into Hong Kong films, and they are not even pseudo-sci-fi movies.

There are almost no people in Hong Kong involved in pure science fiction films like Western films, which has nothing to do with the lack of rich associations of Hong Kong directors and screenwriters, mainly because of the long-term concept accumulation and the lack of optimism about the market.

Since the early 80s, Hong Kong films have been booming. Science fiction films have very little weight in it.

If it weren't for "God of Gamblers" and "Huang Feihong" in front, Chen Ping'an saved the silent gambling films and martial arts kung fu films, and announced that science fiction movies would become the target of the next issue of the Jianghu fundraising order, I am afraid that no one would be optimistic about his science fiction films.

A reporter asked: "Is this sci-fi film the same as the previous films of the Jianghu fund-raising order, which are all Western films?" ”

"No, this will be a science fiction film that belongs to Hong Kong and belongs to us Chinese, and the actors of this film will be selected from Hong Kong actors."

As soon as these words came out, those who heard them were shocked.

As everyone knows. In Chen Ping'an's fundraising order, the target films will choose Western films, in order to get a higher share of the box office in order to pass through the huge American market. And this time, it was unusual, shooting a science fiction film in the form of a Hong Kong film......

"Wouldn't that cost a lot of money at the U.S. box office?"

Chen Ping'an's influence in the United States is growing day by day. has gradually become a famous director in the United States, and the share of Western films filmed with distribution companies and theaters has begun to gradually increase.

It's like "Rain Man", which will be released in the United States this Christmas. The box office share has increased from 40% to 42%. But as the pioneering work of Hong Kong-style thrillers, "Midnight Bell" has only 20% of the box office share in the United States. Even after the release, the American audience spent an unforgettable Halloween in great horror. 20th Century Fox more than doubled the number of screens from 300 to 650, and is expected to exceed $80 million at the box office, but the 20% margin is still an insurmountable gap.

"Compared with the lost box office revenue, I care more about letting the world see the glory of our Hong Kong films!"

This sentence suddenly raised Chen Ping'an's image in the hearts of reporters and onlookers, in fact, there was still one sentence behind him - buddy is not bad for money now.

Needless to say, if Zhang Min's public kiss before would be published in the newspaper as a scandal for readers to gossip, then this Hong Kong-made sci-fi masterpiece will become a report that praises Chen Ping'an from the front and appears in front of readers!

Hong Kong people have the pride of Hong Kong people, especially Hong Kong films that are in their glory days. Let Hong Kong films go out of Asia and rush to the world, which is the pride in the hearts of Hong Kong people.

After the praise of the reporters, another reporter raised the next topic: "Mr. Chen, you have acquired the entire equity of ATV from Mr. Qiu Degen, does this mean that you will enter the TV industry?" Or will your next phase of energy be more focused on free-to-air TV shows? ”

"Film and television have never been separated, whether it is the actors in front of the stage or the production personnel behind the scenes, they are all interconnected. I am confident that ATV will be restored to its former glory in my hands and will live up to Mr. Khoo's trust in me. ”

"I heard that you have worked closely with TVB in the past, but after the acquisition of ATV, I wonder what kind of attitude your local TVB TV will have?"

Chen Ping'an smiled slightly, and waved his hand at Fang Yihua, who was paying attention to him outside the crowd: "There is competition to improve, of course, this competition must be an orderly competition of conscience." I believe that in the competition between ATV and TVB, both sides will raise to a new level and bring more and more exciting TV programs to the public. ”

The reporters also found Fang Yihua, who had just arrived, and immediately sent out some people for interviews. Fang Yihua was generous, nodded and smiled with the reporter, and after casually answering a few irrelevant questions, she walked to Chen Ping'an's side.

"Aunt Fang is here in person, making tonight's premiere shine!"

Chen Ping'an was very polite, and Fang Yihua could hear that this was just a politeness based on the most basic etiquette. Since the news came out that Qiu Degen sold China Television and Chen Ping took over the safety market, she guessed Chen Ping'an's thoughts.

At that time, Dark Horse International Grass Creation and Shaw Brothers cooperated closely. Although the rise of Dark Horse International is stepping on the corpse of Shaw Brothers, it is undeniable that even without Dark Horse International, Shaw Brothers Pictures will inevitably end in liquidation.

It's just that she was a little unwilling, so she suddenly announced the liquidation, which caught Dark Horse International off guard.

In her mind, Chen Ping'an could only endure this breath, because Dark Horse International still has a place to ask for wireless, and wireless does not have too many demands for Dark Horse International. So she can not care about Chen Ping'an's feelings, as long as she can vent her anger.

In the past two years, as she expected, Chen Ping'an has still maintained a close relationship with wireless. Movie advertisements were placed on TVB, its singers sang on TVB, high-quality TV scripts were provided for TVB, and TVB was given priority to broadcast events......

It wasn't until Zhang Guorong and Anita Mui both jumped to Dark Horse Records that Dark Horse Records even paid a high default amount for Anita Mui, which made Fang Yihua vigilant in her anger, and cut off the opportunity for singers under Dark Horse Films to sing wirelessly on stage.

Not long ago, she heard that Chen Ping'an unilaterally announced the acquisition of ATV, and she also suspected that Chen Ping'an intended to get involved in the TV station, but she quickly dispelled this idea. Without him, Chen Ping'an's approach is more like grandstanding than an acquisition.

Thinking from another perspective, if she was Qiu Degen, she would never give up ATV to others in this situation, making people think that she was afraid of Chen Ping'an. But the problem is that Chen Ping'an did it, Qiu Degen was willing to sell ATV to Chen Ping'an, which couldn't help but make Fang Yihua start to face up to this matter.

Attending the premiere of "My Sassy Girlfriend" tonight, it is for this reason that she wants to contact Chen Ping'an to determine the other party's thoughts.

With a faint smile, Fang Yihua said: "I'm old, and I can't compare to you young people." Look, when you go here, you look like a pair of golden boys and girls. I've seen all the movies you've made over the years, and they're very good. ”

The meeting between the two was not shocking, and there was no Mars hitting the earth that the reporter wanted to see, so I couldn't help but be a little disappointed. Could it be that after Chen Ping'an became the owner of ATV, will ATV and Wireless change from the previous-for-tat confrontation to harmonious coexistence?

"Aunt Fang, please be careful of the cold outside."

The two clearly ignored the reporters, and the reporters got out of the way one after another, and watched the two walk into the Taiping Theater side by side, and even Zhang Min unconsciously fell behind by half a beat.

There were already many guests in the theater, and they greeted Chen Ping'an and Fang Yihua one after another, and at the same time secretly worried about the relationship between the two parties.

Yu Cheng looked at the two people who were talking and laughing, and said suspiciously: "The two of them...... Are ATV and Wireless still ready to cooperate? ”

"How is that possible!" Yang Zhicheng next to him sneered and shook his head.

Only two television stations in Hong Kong are licensed by the Government to operate domestic free television programme services, one is wireless and the other is ATV. The relationship between the two television stations is inherently a life-and-death rivalry, and there is absolutely no room for relaxation.

If a TV station wants to increase its revenue more, it must suppress another TV station, which is a general trend that cannot be reversed.

In the end, Hong Kong is too small.

"Then they ......"

"You think it's strange that they're talking and laughing? You don't want to think about it, Chen Ping'an, a descendant, who has publicly torn his face with in the circle? Even when he fought with us at the beginning, wasn't it like that on the surface? ”

"It's not easy for him to have such a city at his age."

"If he were simple, how could he achieve this in a few years?" Yang Zhicheng's eyes flashed, "It seems that there will be a big collision between wireless and ATV next year, and then Chen Ping'an's main energy will probably be on ATV." Yu Cheng, this is our opportunity, you must seize it! (To be continued......)
