From Lin Zhengying and B Tsai, Lin Yang has a specific understanding of the current Hong Kong Island film and television industry.

Director Lin is at the forefront of the world, and his "First Blood" series and "Transformers" series are all popular all over the world, so he rarely pays attention to the Hong Kong Island film and television circle.

Lin Zhengying and B Zai's relatives and friends are all on Hong Kong Island, and they are all in the film and television industry, so they know more about it.

Nowadays, in the Hong Kong Island film and television industry, in addition to the irreplaceable three words "Li Xiaolong", Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, and New Arts City stand on three legs.

Shaw Brothers is an old tyrant of Hong Kong Island's film and television industry, but he has shifted most of his energy from the big screen to the small screen.

Its filming of "Shanghai Tang", as well as TV series such as "Shooting the Condor", which was just released this year, caused a great sensation on Hong Kong Island. But Shaw Brothers is a little weak on the big screen.

Golden Harvest has "Bruce Lee" as the pillar on the big screen, but in fact, "Bruce Lee's" film and television company has long been incomparable to Golden Harvest.

Nowadays, Golden Harvest is dominated by Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan after Yuanlong's renaming, and has made great achievements on the big screen.

Xinyi City, founded in September 1980 by Mai Jia, Huang Baiming and Shi Tian, is affiliated to Golden Princess Entertainment Co., Ltd., and is supported by the real estate consortium "Kowloon Construction".

His "Best Partner" and "Happy Ghost" series also have a lot of achievements.

Except for the three-legged triumvirate of Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, and New Art City, the rest are some small film and television companies, and there is nothing outstanding about it.

However, even if the Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, and New Arts City are tied together, they are not the opponents of Director Lin Da, and the three words "Li Xiaolong" are not only on Hong Kong Island, but also in the world, and they are also emperors and superstars.

With Director Linda's ability to make money in the world. Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, and Xinyicheng said they could only kneel.

In their eyes, fortunately, "Li Xiaolong" put most of his energy on Hollywood, otherwise the Hong Kong Island film industry would be swept away by "Li Xiaolong".

Even if Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, and New Arts City control the film market on Hong Kong Island, and most of the theaters on Hong Kong Island are controlled by the three, they can't stop the footsteps of "Li Xiaolong".

Not to mention that Concord Film Company was originally affiliated with Golden Harvest. can be released in Golden Harvest and controlled theaters, that is, Shaw Brothers and New Art City, you dare to say that if you don't let the movie of "Li Xiaolong" be screened, the fans of "Brother Long" can drown you!

The three words "Li Xiaolong", the influence is not to be said!

What's more, with the net worth of "Li Xiaolong", he acquired scattered theaters, or invested in theaters, and then integrated a theater chain. That's easy, too.

In fact, they are also very envious of the movie "Li Xiaolong", which has a global popularity and ability to attract money, but it can't be compared... Whether it is the "First Blood" series or the "Transformers" series of films, the shooting cost is calculated in tens of millions of US dollars, that is, more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars.

However, Jiahe is far-sighted and has learned "Li Xiaolong". The movie of "Jackie Chan" was produced at a large budget and promoted to Hollywood. But the results are average, and there is no comparison with the movie of "Li Xiaolong".

But after all, it is a dollar that is earned, and Golden Harvest still makes a small profit.

……

After learning about the situation of the Hong Kong Island film and television industry from Lin Zhengying and B Zai, Director Lin also had a headache, how should he drive Chinese films?

With his ability, he made a movie that was popular on Hong Kong Island. That's a matter of minutes, but it doesn't make Chinese movies go global.

After thinking for a while, Lin Yang looked at his left and right hand Lin Zhengying, and suddenly had an idea.

This zombie Taoist was later starred in a zombie movie. Popular on Hong Kong Island and the mainland.

In this case, why not shape this "Ninth Uncle" into a zombie Taoist who is popular all over the world?

Although it is very difficult, it is worth a try, so that the "Ninth Uncle", as well as the zombies in the Eastern culture, can go to the world. As a result, in addition to his "Li Xiaolong", there are also other Chinese-language movies that are accepted by Hollywood and world audiences.

"Brother Long?" Lin Zhengying was a little hairy by Director Lin Da, and couldn't help but scream.

Lin Yang smiled and said, "A-Ying, I'm going to write a script for you, you put down the matter at hand and start work immediately!" ”

Director Lin Da's speed of writing the script is naturally very fast, so I plan to write the script today and start work tomorrow.

Lin Zhengying listened, but was taken aback, "Brother Long" wants to write a script for him?

In recent years, "Brother Long" has written the scripts of the "First Blood" series and the "Transformers" series, but they are popular all over the world, and he naturally does not doubt the ability of "Brother Long" to write scripts.

But with the status of Lin Zhengying and B Tsai today, as the left and right hands of "Li Xiaolong", they are already very comparable, and the two of them are enough to do behind-the-scenes work, and they have never thought about what they want to be movie stars.

"Brother Long" suddenly wants to write a script for him, what kind of trouble is this?

Seeing Lin Zhengying's surprised appearance, and the B boy on the side was also confused, Lin Yang smiled and said, "Let's go and prepare first!" Leave the matter at hand to B boy first, and the script will come out tomorrow. ”

Lin Zhengying and B Zai are busy with the "King Kong" series, Director Lin Da, the shopkeeper, naturally knows it, and after the order, he began to write the script for Lin Zhengying.

Lin Zhengying and B Zai left in a daze, saying that they couldn't keep up with the rhythm of "Brother Long" and could only act as ordered.

Director Lin Da buried himself in writing the script for Lin Zhengying, not only a zombie film, but also a fusion of Eastern and Western styles, not only to sell on Hong Kong Island, but also to the world.

Before the 80s, ghost movies and thrillers on Hong Kong Island were rare, and zombie films were even more forgotten themes, and occasionally a few were just simple works that imitated Western vampire movies, and were not much sold.

is the overlord of the Hong Kong Island film and television industry that was in the limelight back then, Shaw Brothers Film Company, which also planted a heel in zombie films.

Speaking of which, this is also related to "Li Xiaolong".

Back then, "Li Xiaolong's" movies "Enter the Dragon" and "Game of Death" earned hundreds of millions of dollars in the Western market, which made Old Man Shao red-eyed.

In 1974, not long after the arrival of director Lin Da, Shao Yifu was also ambitious and wanted to enter the overseas market.

Shaw Brothers Film Company invited a British director to shoot a film "Seven Golden Corpses" that combines Western blood-sucking zombies and the legend of "Xiangxi Chasing Corpses".

Shaw Brothers launched a strong publicity, but due to the strange style of the film and too many mixed things in the film, it was unacceptable to both Eastern and Western audiences, and the box office finally failed miserably.

Shaw Brothers lost a lot of money at that time and made a big mistake!

Therefore, in the following years, no one on Hong Kong Island dared to touch zombie movies.
