Chapter Twenty-Six: Fame
"Mr. Li, can you be interviewed?"
"I'm sorry, it's not convenient now, can you let me go?"
"Mr. Li, it is said that you have earned tens of millions of family properties in only half a year after you arrived in Xiangjiang, is this true?"
"I'm sorry, I don't have any comment, can you let me go?"
"Mr. Li, I heard that you have opened a film company, have you decided to enter the film industry? Is the next work still a comedy? ”
"I should go over, can you please give way?"
"Mr. Li, Mr. Li ......" ......
"Whew, finally squeezed in, why are there so many reporters today?" Li Xuechu complained.
Wang Jin pouted: "Princess Jin is no better than us, there must be more reporters here today, and we didn't invite reporters to the previous celebration banquet." But this time, so many reporters are actually mainly coming for you, who told you to be so popular now? ”
Princess Jin invited a lot of reporters when she held a celebration banquet, but the invited reporters were all close to the company, and they were also reminded not to harass the guests inside, and not to report the things inside without permission, so they were all more restrained.
Since Tycoon Lei offered a million-dollar price to buy the script, Li Xuechu's attention has risen instantly. In Xiangjiang, a money-making society, a teenager from the mainland who was almost penniless when he first came to Xiangjiang has earned a net worth of millions in just half a year, and it is very likely that he will earn tens of millions of dollars in a year, which is absolutely newsworthy.
Although there are countless billionaires in Xiangjiang, not to mention tens of millions, there are even a lot of billionaires, but most of them are wealth accumulated over decades or even decades. And a teenager who is still at the age of middle school in terms of age has earned nearly 10 million net worth within half a year, without relying on his family, lottery, stock market and other industries with high luck, which is still quite a sensational thing. Li Xuechu became famous in just a few days, becoming the idol of thousands of young people and young people in Xiangjiang, and countless teenagers began to follow his home trajectory to various newspapers, publishing houses, and film companies to deliver novels and scripts, dreaming of replicating his path to success and becoming the second Li Xuechu. And various drinking parties, banquets, charity banquets, auctions, etc. in the rich circle, which originally seemed to have nothing to do with him, also began to send him invitations, which made Li Xuechu unbearable.
Without mentioning the gossip, after Wang Li and the others entered the hotel, Huang Baining, as the host, greeted them.
"Mr. Huang, I'm sorry to be late."
"Hehe, it's just the beginning, it's not too late." Huang Baining looks like a spring breeze on his face, this time the new art city is a big one, the box office of a movie has reached two Golden Harvests, and he has a bad breath for himself and Mecca and others who are unhappy in Golden Harvest, and the box office is good, and his income is also rising, and he is both material and spiritual.
"This movie is a big hit thanks to Mr. Li's good script, and I'm already looking forward to starting the next one, hehehe."
Li Xuechu hurriedly said a few words modestly, and then the two went in, and Huang Baining had to entertain other guests.
"Come, Jin Zai Chuzai, come and sit here." Entering the hall on the second floor, Hong Jinbao saw the two of them first, and loudly beckoned the two to sit down at his table.
"Brother Sanmao, I haven't congratulated you yet, the box office of the movie is good." Wang Jin said with a smile.
"It's okay, but it's still a lot worse than this one." Hong Jinbao smiled, and then added, "Uncle Huai's mood is not much better now." ”
If there is no big sale of the homeless house, it is estimated that Zou Wenhuai's mood will still be very good during this time, after all, the box office results of Golden Harvest during this period are not bad. It's a pity that the strong rise of Xinyicheng this time overturned the wishful thinking of Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers to crush the Golden Princess. However, Li Xuechu, who came from later generations, knew that even if she didn't have herself, Princess Jin would still rely on the new art city to grow stronger, and even forced Jiahe to dominate in Xiangjiang in the eighties.
However, this is also Golden Harvest's main focus on Raiders Hollywood to give Princess Jin a chance, Zou Wenhuai is indeed quite courageous, but in general, this plan still failed.
After saying this, Hong Jinbaojue said that this was a little inappropriate now, and changed the topic back: "Chu Zai, Uncle Huai handed over the script of the mouse trap to me to do, and this time it can be regarded as our Hong family class borrowing your light." ”
"What's the matter, this was bought by Uncle Huai, how can I have the cheekiness to ask for credit?"
Hong Jinbao waved his hand and said, "You can't say that, without you people providing good materials, we cooks wouldn't be able to cook good dishes." Chu Zai, I heard that you don't write comedy anymore? ”
Li Xuechu smiled and said, "It's not that I don't want to write, it's that I don't want to write anymore in a short time." I wrote too much for a while, and everything in my head was scraped out. ”
After writing the soul catcher, Li Xuechu really couldn't remember what to write for a while, and he broke off in the newspaper office for a few days. Later, I remembered two French films, Butterfly and the Spring of the Cattle Herding Class, so I changed the background of the story era in the mainland and adapted it, although these two novels with strong literary and artistic styles are good, but I think that they will not be changed into movies by the film company in a short period of time, and now Xiangjiang still has a lot of rejection of the mainland. Most of the movies I was exposed to in my previous life were from the 90s and after the new century, and they were somewhat decoupled in the 80s. Of course, there were a lot of good movies in Xiangjiang in the 80s, but Li Xuechu thought about it, he still didn't steal the jobs of other screenwriters, and he didn't know when those movies were written, you must know that it is normal for some scripts to be put on hold for several years, and the two films I wrote are ready to be put on hold for more than ten years, but the Hong Kong films in the 90s shouldn't be a big problem, right? Writing one or two films may also give some inspiration to other screenwriters, after all, the Hollywood movies copied before are generally not as down-to-earth as those made in Hong Kong.
After all, although comedy novels are relatively marketable in Xiangjiang, they are not popular in the eyes of literati, and Jin Yong was not recognized as a literati in the cultural circle of the mainland for a period of time, because in their opinion, martial arts novels are also not popular.
Although some readers were dissatisfied with not writing comedies for two months, as his fame rose, more Xiangjiang people began to pay attention to his novels. Some readers who are more youthful and youthful are quite impressed by his new novel, thinking that this is worthy of being called a novel, and what he wrote before was all about cheating money. And some teenagers who idolize him like whatever he writes. As a result, the sales of newspapers have not decreased significantly, and it seems that the price has increased. Some literati and editors who sprayed him for only writing frivolous works to cheat money after he became famous also closed their mouths indignantly for a while, of course, it is impossible to keep others shut up, people just rely on their mouths to eat.
After listening to Li Xuechu say that he didn't want to write comedy, Hong Jinbao was a little disappointed, the novel that Li Xuechu is writing now is very good to some people, but the style of his own Hong family class is not the same taste at all, and he can't use it if he wants to, and I'm afraid it's impossible to cooperate in the short term. However, those "**tide" directors are still quite interested in this literary style of novels, but unfortunately they dare not touch it at will because it involves the mainland. Although the novel does not involve politics, the mainland is now a 'forbidden area' for the Xiangjiang film circle, and if you are not careful, you will be blocked by Taiwan, and Taiwan is an important foreign market for Xiangjiang films, and you can't give it up. At present, Taiwan's various economic blockades against the mainland are quite heavy, and buying a bottle of two pot heads will be regarded by the Taiwan government as an 'act of capital enemy'.
Li Xuechu looked at Hong Jinbao as if he was a little unhappy, and after thinking about it, he probably knew his thoughts, and said with a smile: "If you don't write comedy, you can also write something else, and movies are not only comedy." Brother Sanmao, you should also try a few more styles, otherwise it is easy to shoot the subject matter if you always shoot one or two genres, after all, Xiangjiang is now so strict with the trend, sometimes a theme may not be popular for a few years. ”
According to the 'experience' of later generations, Hong Jiaban is basically taking the two themes of market comedy and fantasy kung fu films, filming several times a year, coupled with a large number of others following the trend, the theme was shot badly in less than ten years, and Hong Jiaban immediately declined.
"I also know this truth, in the past few years, our Hong family class has also been trying to transform, 'ghost fight' came up with this way, now the box office is not bad, it is also a good idea to think about it, our Hong family class plans to do a few more zombie movies of this kind. Chu Zai, you have a brain, help me think about whether this theme can be popular? ”
Ghost fighting is the prototype of a psychedelic kung fu movie, Lin Zhengying's zombie film will be popular for a few years in the next few years, speaking of Uncle Ying's movie, it can be regarded as his 'childhood memories', and Zhou Xingxing's comedy, Uncle Ying's movie Li Xuechu has basically seen all of them.
"I think it's a good idea, I think it can be popular! Brother Sanmao, are you interested in cooperating with me to make another movie? The action genre is just a fashion drama, and I haven't thought of a script yet, but it should be written soon, and I've always been quick to write scripts. ”
Hong Jinbao's face showed a little joy, with the experience of the previous times, Li Xuechu's script is still quite guaranteed at the box office, after Lei Tycoon's million-dollar script buying incident, the reputation of 'million screenwriters' has spread in the industry, and now many people want to cooperate with Li Xuechu.
"Okay, what our Hong family class lacks most now is the script."
"Didn't you just take over the Ratcatcher?"
"Then we have to come up with a new script as soon as possible, we have dozens of mouths in the Hong family class to feed, and it's not easy to stop for a few days." Hong Jinbao said with a smile.
