With the arrival of the summer vacation in the Hong Kong film industry, the turmoil about "Midnight Bell" causing a death in Japan has finally come to an end. The media has turned their attention to the summer vacation blockbusters launched by major film companies.

Leading the way for Golden Harvest is "Ghost Bride" starring Zhou Yunfa and Wang Guxian. Due to Hong Jinbao's multiple identities, he received the news one step earlier, so Debao's "Fairy in the Painting" decided to be released in the second round of the summer vacation, and the first release was also the follow-up film "Gambling Mystery Notes".

During the Spring Festival, the sensation of "God of Gamblers" not only saved the gambling film, but also pointed out a new direction for the gambling film. Later, Wang Jing's small-cost production of "Bad Gambling Hero" filmed for Yongsheng was released after the Easter schedule, and it actually won tens of millions of box office in three weeks, which surprised many industry insiders. It also allows major film companies to see that gambling films that have been silent for many years are not only resurrected, but also prosperous.

Golden Harvest and Xinyicheng hold their own identities, and they have already formulated a year-round shooting plan at the beginning of the year, so the filming of the follow-up film is suspended, but Debao has no pressure to follow the trend of "A Chinese Ghost Story", is it still necessary to follow the trend of "God of Gamblers"?

So, Hong Jinbao personally took charge of it, gathered a number of big-name screenwriters in the company, and spent a week to create the script "Gambling Mystery", and gathered a group of friends from the "Five Lucky Stars" series, plus the overlord Hua Hu Huizhong, Gao Lihong, who is still an apprentice, and Debao praised actress Yang Ziqiong to make a cameo, and filmed this comedy gambling film "Gambling Mystery" in 20 days.

Golden Princess Cinemas? The release is "Jianghu Dragon and Tiger Fight" filmed by Darong Film Company. The boss of Darong Pictures is Deng Guangrong, the "student prince" who was with Qin Han and Qin Xianglin when he was young. This time to shoot "Jianghu Dragon and Tiger Fight", Deng Guangrong personally went into battle. A lot of money and favors invited Zhou Yanfa to co-star, and he couldn't jump out of the category of follow-up films.

"Once Upon a Time", which was only completed in late May. Become the pioneer of Dark Horse International to blow the horn of attack in the summer vacation. Posters, newspapers, and especially TV advertising tidbits made many viewers aware of the difference between this martial arts film and previous martial arts films.

In total, less than three minutes of advertising tidbits. Let the audience feel the temperament of a generation of grandmasters shown by Huang Feihong played by Li Lianjie from TV. There is also the theme song "Men Should Be Self-Improvement" sung by Cheng Long, although it is also only a short excerpt, but it still makes the audience's blood boil.

"This is a martial arts film that is different from the past, and it will open a new chapter in Hong Kong martial arts films!" ——Oriental Daily

On Wednesday, June 24, Princess Jin and Debao took the lead in hosting the premiere of their new film. Although they are both the four major film companies in Hong Kong with their own cinemas, the box office and word-of-mouth for more than a year, the grades of Golden Princess and Debao have obviously been opened by Dark Horse International and Golden Harvest. Although Golden Harvest has many defeats and few wins in the face of Dark Horse International, it is a veteran leader with profound heritage. It still has the capital to compete with Dark Horse International.

With the current gambling film in the ascendant, Debao's "Gambling Mystery" received a good response after its premiere. Several lucky stars have undiminished funny ability, and the three female stars are beautiful, and the audience feasted their eyes and laughed at the same time, and the premiere won a good reputation for "Gambling on Mystery".

Compared with "Gambling Mystery", "Jianghu Dragon and Tiger Fight" released by Princess Jin is slightly inferior. The script is not much new, and the plot has few highlights, but Zhou Runfa's golden signboard. The strong appeal to the box office is undeniable.

June 25th is the day when Dark Horse International and Golden Harvest held the premiere for the new film, "Once Upon a Time" vs "Ghost Bride".

"Brother Xiao Ming, you're finally back!" Inside the office. Chen Ping'an looked at Xu Xiaoming, who he hadn't seen for a long time, with a helpless face. Why is this guy so daring, I haven't heard of it before. Did I scare him too hard in the first place?

"Prison Storm" has not yet been completed, but after high-intensity filming some time ago. Most of the filming has been completed, and it is expected to be completed in early July. He doesn't have to be in as much of a hurry as he used to be.

Tonight is the premiere of "Once Upon a Time", and he gave the crew a day off, just in time to meet Xu Xiaoming, who had just returned from the mainland with the master disk of "Mirage". With the help of this gentleman, his acquisition of ATV can be said to be ready, only owes Dongfeng.

Xu Xiaoming smiled: "Filming in the mainland is not slower than in Hong Kong, and the shooting speed is slower, and the impact of the weather must be considered, and I am not implementing your purpose, filming should be meticulous, and take my work seriously?" ”

"Alright, just come back." Chen Ping'an waved his hand, "Let's talk about it, how is the cooperation with the mainland this time?" ”

"It's not bad, the film studios in the mainland are still very welcoming to us, they ...... I benefited a lot this time...... I don't have a good relationship with them either...... I think so...... In fact, cooperation with the mainland can be strengthened in the future. Anyway, in a few years, we'll be back. ”

Xu Xiaoming said a lot of things, of course, he wanted to prove to Chen Ping'an that he had gained a lot from staying in the mainland for so long, which would be of great benefit to the company's future development, and it was also his own true feeling. Considering the return to China in 10 years, if film companies want to cooperate with the mainland to develop the mainland market for a long time, co-productions will become the main theme of Hong Kong films in the future.

There is no need for him to say this, can Chen Ping'an not know?

"Very good, it seems that you have gained a lot from this trip to the mainland. In this way, in the recent period, you will first help Jiang Zhiqiang deal with the mainland distribution matters, and then there will be a heavier burden to be handed over to you next year. ”

"I didn't ask you." Xu Xiaoming agreed very happily, and then asked, "How is Ah Feng lately?" ”

Of course it's good, I just tried a new trick with her last week. Chen Ping'an smiled: "She is very good, she is currently filming "Angel Action" with Fang Zhongxin and Hideki Xicheng, which is co-produced by Xinghui Pictures and Japan. ”

"Oh, that's good, that's good......" Xu Xiaoming nodded absentmindedly, and Chen Ping'an joked: "Brother Xiaoming, you want to ask about that." I have settled that matter, and I can rest assured that I will stay in Hong Kong in the future, and no one will dare to touch you. I don't understand, you're too bold, aren't you? ”

Xu Xiaoming let out a sigh: "Boss, let you see a smile." I've experienced something like this before, and I'm really scared. ”

"Don't worry about it in the future, as long as I live, no one can touch my people. Not to mention this, the "Mirage" you shot this time is very good, and those thrilling shots you designed are dangerous, but they are also very exciting. By the way, it's called Pasha. Xinjiang actresses in Umar are beautiful. ”

"Thank you boss for the compliment." As soon as Xu Xiaoming said a word, the whole person was stunned on the spot.

He just returned to Hong Kong and brought back the master disk of "Mirage", which is being screened in the company's small screening room at the moment, and Chen Ping'an has not seen it, let alone knows the name of the female lead!

It took him a while to react, and he asked hesitantly: "Boss, you also have connections in the mainland?" ”

"Haha, you can never imagine what I know about the mainland. China Film Co-production Company ......"

This time, Xu Xiaoming went to the mainland on behalf of Dark Horse International to shoot "Mirage", which is to cooperate with the China Film Co-production Company, listening to Chen Ping'an's internal situation in the Chinese film co-production company, and talking about many mainland film anecdotes, as well as many film studios in the mainland, Xu Xiaoming's eyes are different when he looks at Chen Ping'an.

Could it be ......

Xu Xiaoming thought of a rumor that the mainland had already sent people to Hong Kong secretly to contact leaders from all walks of life, in order to enable Hong Kong to return smoothly in the future.

As the most successful young man in Hong Kong in the 80s, Chen Ping'an's past experience has long been exposed, Xu Xiaoming knows very well that he has never been to the mainland, but how can he understand the situation in the mainland so thoroughly?

Could it be that he is from the mainland?

"Brother Xiao Ming, I plan to buy ATV."

"Ahh Boss, what do you say? ”

"I said, I'm ready to buy ATV. Now do you understand why I am in a hurry to find you back? ”

Xu Xiaoming is a smart person, and he understands in an instant. A director like him is not of much importance to Dark Horse International, but if it is a TV station......

"Boss, don't worry, I'm familiar with ATV, if there is anything I need, just ask."

"Can I rest assured that you can help me manage my ATV?"

"I assist...... Managing ATV? ”

"Or to assist Sister Nansheng."

"No problem!" Xu Xiaoming was excited, he knew very well what Chen Ping'an's assistance meant, but he still had a question, "Boss Qiu values ATV very much, with my understanding of him, even if our company has sufficient funds, if we want to acquire ATV, I am afraid it will be difficult." ”

"You don't have to worry about that." Chen Ping'an threw Xu Xiaoming a Gasba cigar, "Some time ago, Liu Jiahao and Li Lizhi almost jumped ship and wireless. ”

"What?" Xu Xiaoming sat up suddenly, "Boss, you have to stop it, Lao Liu is definitely a talent, and he can't be poached wirelessly!" ”

Chen Ping'an was very satisfied with Xu Xiaoming's attitude: "I had a meal with them and persuaded them to wait until early next year to make a decision, but I have limited understanding of ATV, and ATV is now being overwhelmed by wireless...... Do you mean to love me? ”

Of course, Xu Xiaoming understood Chen Ping'an's words, and he even knew that wireless could fully gain the upper hand, and it was inseparable from Chen Ping'an's help...... is not very old, and can actually lay out such a big game of chess early, could it be that the mainland has long planned to control a TV station?

"I understand. I'm going to get in touch with my former colleagues and do my best to keep them on ATV. It's just that now wireless is in the limelight, and it will ...... in the future"

"You don't have to worry about this, since I can help wireless comprehensively suppress ATV, I naturally have a way to bring ATV back to life. It's not appropriate to publicize this matter at the moment, and you are the third person in the company to know about it. ”

"Don't worry, boss, I know what to do."

Xu Xiaoming left in high spirits, and his heart was excited. According to Chen Ping'an, after acquiring ATV in the future, he will return to ATV, and his identity will no longer be limited to director and producer!

Looking at the watch, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Ping'an leaned on the boss's chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, and after a while, the big brother on the table rang, and Guan Zhilin's crispy voice came from the phone.

"Brother An, are you free now, can you come to my house?" (To be continued......) R1292
