The days passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye, it was March 81, and Li Xuechu's days in Xiangjiang were also half a year.

A few days ago, Li Xuechu's drunken hero who invested in the script was finally painted, it may be that there are too many comedy movies this year, so that this popular movie in later generations finally failed to reach a good score of more than 10 million like the first two, and it can break through the 9 million mark, but this is also the best result of Hongjiaban so far. With the good results of both films, the morale-boosting Hong Jiaban stepped up the filming of the new film The Mouse Catcher, and at the same time did not forget to urge Li Xuechu to hand over the script of the black man quickly.

Heixia has been decided to be directed by Xu Ke, and when Li Xuechu found Hong Jinbao because of this matter, people waved their hands to say that they had no opinion, anyway, as long as Hong Jiaban participated, Sanmao said he didn't care who the director was. And Xu Ke is not as difficult as Li Xuechu thought before, his last movie did not achieve good results, and now no one is looking for him, and he is worried that there will be no movies to make. And the new requirements for action dramas put forward by Li Xuechu when he came to the door are also quite in line with Director Xu Da's intentions, after all, this was originally the one who created this fast and sharp new action style in later generations, which drove the new trend of Xiangjiang kung fu dramas, and even became popular with Li Lianjie, Zhao Wenzhuo, Zheng Zidan and other action superstars. People may have an idea about this style, but they can't realize it because no one invests in it, and now the big money owner who is not bad at money has come to the door, and the ideas coincide with themselves. Xu Ke was also overjoyed, and talked quite eagerly, without any sense of weirdness and difficulty in communicating with the rumors of later generations. The two quickly agreed on the investment amount and approximate shooting plan, and later brought in Hung Jinbao to discuss the specific details of the cooperation. Of course, Li Xuechu doesn't want to participate in specific affairs, so he just needs to find someone to supervise the finances and filming progress when the time comes.

And the fake god in the 'fast gunner' Wang Jin's operation,Began to prepare at the end of December,Finished filming in the middle of last month and entered the post-production zuò,Today's sample film finally came out,The two plan to find Jiahe in two days to discuss the release after watching the film,If nothing else, there will be new box office revenue in two or three months,For this three-million-cost Xiangjiang 'big production zuò' Li Xuechu is still quite confident. It is worth mentioning that the news from Golden Harvest that the movie ticket price will begin to increase from next month, from the original eight yuan to ten yuan, which is not good news for the audience, but it is even better for the film company, which means that the profit of the local box office has increased by 25%.

In the rented Shaw Brothers small screening room, Li Xuechu watched this 'copycat version' of the fake god that was produced more than ten years in advance. This protagonist Li Xuechu also knows: Wan Ziliang. Isn't he Leigh's? Li Xuechu glanced at Wang Jin strangely and stopped talking, this guy habitually turned his arms outward, Shao Tycoon can tolerate him digging the wall with Shaw's salary, and it doesn't seem to be as 'stingy' as rumored, or Wang Fatzi's father is really very open in Shaw's, and for the sake of his father's face, he simply turned a blind eye to this junior's nonsense.

To be honest, Wan Ziliang, who played some roles in later generations or some black A gang brothers, is not bad in this movie, but compared with the star master and Jim Carrey in later generations, it is still less flavorful, but after thinking about this movie, it is estimated that people will still be popular for a while, and it is another butterfly effect, I don't know how his star journey will unfold in the future, this old drama bone in later generations is also a powerful faction, but there has never been a good movie, and the table of supporting roles is remarkable, Especially the momentum when playing some big bosses or underworld bosses, it is quite flavorful.

After watching the sample film, Li Xuechu felt quite satisfied, although it was a little rough compared with the 'original', and the protagonist was slightly inferior to the king of later generations, but for the Xiangjiang comedy in the early eighties, this one was still a 'work of conscience'. Xiao Li expressed his appreciation for Wang Fatzi's work results and efficiency, and specially praised the fat man for a few words.

"More than two months is slow for me, but I can do it in a month!" The fat man said smugly: "This film is still relatively difficult to do in the later stage, but now that I have experience, it will take at least half a month to make another one." ”

"Then forget it, you might as well take the film that can be done in a month to pit others." Li Xuechu pursed his lips, no wonder there are countless bad movies in this house in the future, it seems that it is better to be careful when cooperating with him.

Wang Jin patted his chest and said: "Of course, what I say fast is the premise of ensuring quality, of course, it can be better if the budget is enough, but I also have a way to have a smaller budget, in short, each has its own way to play." ”

Li Xuechu stopped talking, this guy has been in the decline of Xiangjiang movies in later generations, and everyone has either changed careers or not left, but he still insists on constantly shooting new works in the director's position, which can be regarded as a meritorious veteran of Xiangjiang in later generations. However, the shooting degree of several movies in a year, the low requirements for the script and the mainstream attitude of the later generations to be meticulously crafted seem to be alternative and eye-catching. His films have slowly become synonymous with roughness and vulgarity, and he is laughingly called the first person to "persist in decades without progress".

Li Xuechu thought about it and reminded him: "Fatty, if the movie can be shot finely, try to shoot it finely, and the requirements for acting and photography are higher, not to mention movies in the future, even TV is becoming more and more exquisite, and this bowl of rice will become more and more unpalatable after the production is too rough." ”

Wang Jin glanced at him in surprise: "Hehe, this is not like what a movie boss said, if Xiangjiang makes movies with your idea, our director will be happy." All directors want to make the movie better, but it's all money, in fact, the audience doesn't dislike it now, and the cost of filming well is one million, and the box office may not be able to add 500,000 to the cost, it's not cost-effective, do you really want to ask for this? ”

"Yes, I don't care about others, my own company must produce high-quality products! I didn't have money before, but now I have money, either I don't shoot, or if I want to shoot, I must shoot well. Li Xuechu said: "Isn't there an overseas box office in addition to the local area, there are many tastes in Japan, Europe and the United States, and it is also beneficial to open up foreign ports if you shoot exquisitely." ”

"Hehe, it's ambitious, but I like it." Wang Jin smiled: "Okay, I can't help it, I'll do what you want." ”

"It's not like you can change your habits when you say you can change them, otherwise how can there be so many directors who can't get along? As for the directors who had a good box office a few years ago, they can't eat now, you can count how much. ”

Wang Fatzi stopped talking, and Li Xuechu didn't want to say anything, how much he could listen to it still depends on others, and he said everything he should have said anyway.

The audience is so foolish now, and it will be similar in more than ten years. But after the invasion of Hollywood and the strong rise of Japanese and Korean films, the audience's appetite was suddenly nourished, and Chinese films, whether in the mainland, Hong Kong or Taiwan, were dwarfed by other people's films. Xiangjiang is not so lucky, and the directors and artists of later generations will either leave the stage gloomily, or they will all go to the mainland to eat, and those who stay behind will also have a hard time. On the one hand, the demand for large-scale entertainment has risen sharply on the scale of the mainland economic exhibition, and on the other hand, it has also been abandoned by the audience in Hong Kong. Compared to Hollywood and Japanese and Korean movies, can you watch this thing?

Of course, in later generations, mainland films have been abused for a few years and have also come out with some strength, at least Li Xuechu has also produced a lot of good movies in China in the past few years, and Taiwan has slowly become a small power in Asia, and Xiangjiang is as always, in the past, it attacked Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, and now it is all back. Occasionally, I shoot one or two blockbusters to show that I have to go north to invest in the next place, and I can't rely on myself.

Coincidentally, due to the success of the last movie, this time Wang Fatzi originally wanted to find his brother to star, but now his brother has gone to Xu Anhua's crew to shoot 'Hu Yue's story'. And after the filming of Hu Yue's story is completed, it will be released after a while. Xu Anhua, who took over Li Xuechu's Soul Catcher script two days ago, continued to look for his brother, and it seems that he was quite satisfied with his brother during the filming of 'Hu Yue's Story'. However, Zhou Yan was pulled away by Wu Yushen again, and it was still Li Xuechu's script: Killer Leon! After the success of the King of Words, a large number of directors and film companies waved scripts and checks to invite him to participate in the movie, washing away the embarrassment that no one cared about before.

In later generations, Wu Yushen and Zhou Yan can be regarded as golden partners in the Xiangjiang film circle, after the true character of the hero, Wu Yushen's movies basically have to find Zhou Yu to star, and the two have cooperated to shoot many popular classic gunfight dramas. Unexpectedly, five years ago, Wu Yushen still found Zhou Yan first when he started filming gunfight movies, how much does he like his brother?

But the twenty-five-year-old brother wants to play an old man in his early forties, which still makes Li Xuechu feel weird, and after mentioning this to Director Wu Da, Wu Yushen was silent but still insisted on his opinion. In his opinion, there are not many suitable candidates for this Western-oriented movie among Xiangjiang actors of a similar age, and the Dillon he originally liked was now pulled by Shaw Brothers to Taiwan to make a co-production movie, so he found his brother. Li Xuechu didn't say anything, there are really few male artists in Xiangjiang who are tall and have good acting skills, if they go out for casting, then I don't know how many twists and turns, anyway, my brother's acting skills are still among the best in Xiangjiang, and it is not a problem to play an old man.

Unlike Wang Fatzi, Xu Anhua, who likes to shoot literary films, is much stricter in the selection of actors, and he resolutely refuses to shoot if he doesn't find an actor who satisfies him. finally pulled out a pure newcomer who no one knows now: Leung Jiahui! made Li Xuechu sigh, how did he find this? People don't talk about movies now, they haven't even made a TV seriously, and they actually let Director Xu rummage through the crowd, this vision is really not covered.

In short, the three movies were cast out like this, the killer Leon has finished casting and is about to start filming, and the progress of Black Man is not much slower due to the active operation of the Hong family class. The soul catcher is relatively slower, but Li Xuechu can afford to wait. Xu Anhua's scenes always have to be prepared for a long time, and the filming is slow. It seems that literary film directors have this habit, which is very different from the characteristics of commercial film directors.

It is worth mentioning that the three comedy films he previously invested in have been released in other cities, and after the king of big words has achieved more than 10 million results in Xiangjiang, it has also continued to be popular in Nanyang, Taiwan, and now Golden Harvest is operating the Korean and Japanese markets, striving for the near future.

After setting a box office record in Xiangjiang, Home Alone also set a box office record for Hong Kong films in Nanyang, Taiwan, which made the Hong Kong media circle rejoice. There are also two things that make Princess Jin overjoyed, one is that South Korean businessmen automatically came to the door, allowing Princess Jin to directly take a new box office market in other cities, and the other is that the British film company came to the door and wanted to buy out the European rights of the film for 300,000 US dollars, and the new art city raised the price to 1.8 million US dollars through negotiations, setting the highest buyout price of Xiangjiang Films in Europe, making the media shout that the golden age of Xiangjiang films has come, and Princess Jin is also famous. However, Li Xuechu was quite depressed about this result, what is there to be happy about selling movies with a box office of more than 500 million US dollars in later generations at this price? Although the box office of the movie is not like hundreds of millions of dollars after more than ten years, the price is too cheap, right? It's a pity that the proportion of his investment is too small and he doesn't have the right to participate in negotiations, but if the film is popular in Europe, then the North American market Xinyicheng will know what to do, right? But in general, the film industry is destined to be a world of ghosts at the beginning of this year.

And although the box office of the drunken hero is quite gratifying individually, it pales in comparison with the first two. There are still too many comedies this year, and they have robbed each other of a lot of box office. Li Xuechu secretly regretted that he had already added some movies with other themes when he knew it, and he was blind to a classic comedy.

However, with the arrival of the box office share in other cities, Li Xuechu's rumored net worth of 10 million is finally worthy of its name.
