"Boss, my "Xi Bao" has also been filmed. ∷ top ∷ point ∷ small ∷ said," Kwan Jinpeng also reported.

The movie "Xi Bao" starring Zhong Chuhong, Tao Dayu, and Liu Zhaoming started filming two months ago, and now it is finally finished.

"Very good, it seems that it is really a happy event." Han Jin smiled and nodded, "What other movies have been completed?" ”

"Jin Shao, my "Fierce Ghost Mission" has also been completed." Liu Zhenwei reported.

"It's great." Han Jin smiled happily, feeling that his mood now is as happy as a farmer who has worked hard for a year looking at the golden ears of grain in the world.

"Brother Jing, how are the three films invested by our Film Foundation doing now?" Han Jin asked again.

"Oh, it all went well. It's probably the relationship between the newcomers, but the shooting is a little slower, and it should only be halfway through the shooting now. Wang Jing replied.

Han Jin nodded, "Don't rush too hard." Now that our film source is guaranteed, we can re-release old films, so there is no shortage of movies to be released, so let them shoot well. ”

"I see." Wang Jing nodded.

"Well, Manager Ji, there are four movies to be released now, you have to arrange the schedule well." Han Jin said, "For example, Director Wu's "True Colors of Heroes" is in the Christmas schedule, Brother Jing, your "Magic Jade" is also a blockbuster, how about it in the Spring Festival schedule?" ”

"Of course that's fine." Wang Jing said with a smile that the Spring Festival schedule is a prime time, and all movies released during the prime time will basically not be too bad at the box office.

Wu Yusen heard Han Jin mention himself, and he unconsciously straightened up.

Everyone present saw that Wu Yusen and Wang Jing divided the two prime times of Christmas and Spring Festival, and they couldn't help but cast envious and jealous eyes. Anyone can see that the two of them are the most valued by the boss now.

"I see, boss." Ji Fanghua also hurriedly said.

"Yes, that's good." Han Jin nodded, and then said with a smile, "Now that the four films have been completed, the four directors, do you have any new films to shoot?" Brother Jing, hasn't Miss Lin's "Police Story" been filmed yet? ”

"It's over. Anyway, Cheng Long pulled her to do the post-dubbing again, so she can't spare time now. Wang Jing said with a frown.

Lin Qingxia has been filming "Police Story" with Cheng Long since the beginning of the year, and as a result, Cheng Long has filmed three movies in a row during this year, "Police Story", "Summer Lucky Star" and "Dragon's Heart", while Lin Qingxia only filmed this "Police Story", and it has not been filmed yet.

Yongsheng has been preparing for the filming of "Royal Sister" for half a year, and he still can't wait for Lin Qingxia's schedule. Because Cheng Long kept finding all kinds of excuses not to let people go, he stopped Lin Qingxia entirely.

"I'll talk to Mr. Zou about it later, and let them speed up a little bit. How can there be such an ink in filming? Han Jin couldn't help but complain.

"Actually, it's not filming ink, Cheng Long's thoughts about Lin Qingxia. It can be described as Sima Zhao's heart, and passers-by know it. Wang Jing smiled, "He thought that if he guarded Lin Qingxia for a long time, he would be able to see through the stone with water, and the golden stone would be opened with sincerity." ”

"So that's the case, I said how can a movie be filmed for so long." Han Jin suddenly realized, "Okay, Director Liu." "Ghost Inn" is finished, are there any new films to be filmed? ”

"Boss. I'm going to make another zombie movie. Liu Zhenwei said.

"Oh, didn't you say you weren't going to shoot again?" Han Jin said with a smile.

"There were so many people who followed the trend before, I just didn't want to be like them. Now that the boss is wise and wise, you have engaged in this third-tier alliance, and now there are many fewer people in Hong Kong who follow the trend and make films, so I am naturally not afraid of them. Liu Zhenwei said with a smile.

"Yes. Are there really fewer people who follow the trend now? Han Jin asked Wang Jingdao.

"Well, the third-tier alliance has a rule that after the movie is on sale, movies of the same type are not allowed to be released again within three months. Many studios are worried that the movie will come out, and by the time it comes out, the trend has waned. Therefore, he hesitated and refused to invest in new films. This has led to a large number of film companies that have followed the trend to reduce production. Wang Jing said.

"Well, are there any film companies that have closed their doors?" Han Jin asked again.

"Yes, a lot." Wang Jing nodded, "Some companies used to only make money by following the trend to make films, but now it is too risky to follow the trend to make films, and they dare not continue to take risks, so they can only choose to close their doors." ”

"Does the closure of so many film companies have any impact on the Hong Kong film industry?" Han Jin asked again.

"Well, the atmosphere in the Hong Kong film industry is much better now. In the past, because there were these film companies that followed the trend to make films, they were robbed after the stars became popular, and the salary was usually two or three times higher. Moreover, there are many artists who have contract disputes with the original company and want to terminate their contracts. Yu Zheng replied.

"Now this phenomenon is much less, and the salaries of celebrities have begun to fall and become more reasonable. It also makes the production companies that are really interested in making good movies a lot less stressful. Yu Zheng said with a smile.

"That's a good thing." Han Jin nodded and said, he has no objection to artists getting high salaries, but at least they must be worth the money. Like Cheng Long, the salary of each drama is more than 5 million Hong Kong dollars, which is several times higher than that of other stars.

But his films can be sold in Japan, they can be sold in the United States, and they regularly top the box office in Taiwan. With such a strong box office appeal, it is understandable that the salary is a little higher.

But the salaries of some celebrities are inflated, and they are not worth so much money at all. But because he is good at hype and creates the illusion of high popularity, the film company is also willing to praise his stinky feet and pay him a high salary to make films.

As a result, the movie was all bad movies, which not only pitted the film company, but also the audience who watched the movie, and in the end, only the star himself was fattened.

There is a need to press down on unreasonable salaries like this, otherwise in order to make money, everyone only cares about hyping up their popularity, but no longer ponders their acting skills, and sooner or later Hong Kong movies will fall into a situation where no one is available.

"There are also some film companies that know that there is no hope of releasing them in the three major theaters, so they switch to only shoot C-grade films and release them in Nanyang." Wang Jing said again.

Most of the so-called C-grade films are low-budget movies, and a film may not even cost 500,000 yuan. Most of them use cesium love, violence, and horror elements to stimulate the audience's senses, so it is usually difficult to be released in regular theaters.

But in the underground cinemas of Hong Kong, as well as those remote places in the South Seas. This kind of C-grade film is still very marketable. In addition, the production cost of C-grade films is lower, so studios can also make money.

"Well, will they do this to affect the reputation of Hong Kong films?" Han Jin knows a little about C-grade movies, but he doesn't know their impact.

"Probably not, in fact, the United States is the country that produces the most C-grade films in the world, and the number of C-grade films produced every year is as high as thousands. The output is much higher than that of A-grade and B-grade films. Their C-grade films are generally only released on a small scale, or they can't even be released, and they are directly thrown to TV stations or sold as videos. Wang Jing explained.

"Many American stars, screenwriters, directors, soundtracks, cinematographers and other talents have shown their talents by shooting C-grade films, and then they have been selected by other film companies. This massive number of C-grade films is like, smelly, but it provides nourishment for the survival of American films. Wang Jing finally described.

Han Jin nodded, "I see, it seems that this C-grade film doesn't just need to be banned." Instead, it's time to guide it moderately? ”

"Well, in fact, C-grade films are not without merit." Wang Jing said, "Hollywood can draw a lot of nourishment from C-grade films every year. Because this kind of film belongs to the lowest riba people, they know very well what the audience wants to see. ”

Han Jin smiled, "Then when you make a movie recently, will there be any black x who will make trouble again?" ”

"Our company doesn't have it, I heard that Siyuan Film Company was filming "The Inside of the Law" a few days ago, and was harassed by a few old boys. Said to collect protection money. Wang Jing said, "But what Wu Siyuan hates the most is the Black X Society." Therefore, instead of complying, he called the police. In the end, the three old boys were arrested by the police, and the matter was on the social news a lot. ”

"Oh?!" Han Jin was stunned for a moment, thinking that Wu Siyuan was really tough, and he dared to have a hard top with Hei X.

You must know that the rules for Hong Kong black X to collect protection fees are not a day or two, and many film companies do not delay filming in order to calm things down. Most of them spend money to keep them safe. It is really rare for someone like Wu Siyuan to choose to call the police.

"Why does he hate Black X the most?" Han Jin asked suspiciously.

"Wu Siyuan filmed "Dragon Ninja" in 82 years, and after the starring Li Yuanba became popular, Taiwan's Black X will take a fancy to his popularity and plan to invite him to make a movie. Li Yuanba was terminating the contract with Wu Siyuan at that time. The relationship was very stiff, and he was worried that Wu Siyuan would not let him go, so he said to those people, 'As long as you put Wu Siyuan on the table, I will make a film for you.' As a result, these people beat Wu Siyuan violently and almost lost his life in Taiwan. Wang Jing explained.

"That's why he hates the Black X Club the most, and would rather die than retreat." Wang Jing finally said.

"Damn!" Han Jin slapped the table and said.

After becoming popular like Li Yuanba, he clamored to terminate the contract, and he also found a star who would beat the boss violently, which is really hateful. No matter how good his acting skills are, no matter how strong his kung fu is, and how popular he is, he will not use it.

"Is that Li Yuanba still developing in the circle now?" Han Jin asked again.

"It's gone, it's long gone. Who else would dare to use an artist with such a character, aren't you afraid of being beaten to death by him when you turn around? Wang Jing waved his hand.

"Well, this is still a righteous atmosphere in heaven and earth." Han Jin nodded.

"Now the third-tier alliance has been established, which has eliminated a large number of leather bag film companies, and also shocked a large number of filmmakers with bad intentions. It has made Siyuan Pictures, Luowei Pictures, Debao Pictures, Darong Pictures and other qualified film companies have a lot more room for development, not only the release schedule of the film is guaranteed, but also gives them the confidence to cultivate new directors and new actors. Wang Jing said.

Han Jin nodded, at the beginning of the establishment of the third-line alliance, it wanted to create better conditions for the development of Hong Kong films. Now it seems that the effect is really showing step by step, which also makes my hard work not in vain.

"That's good, that's good." Han Jin smiled and nodded, "Director Guan, the filming of "Xibao" is over, what are you going to shoot next?" ”

"Boss, I haven't figured it out yet." Guan Jinpeng said honestly, he was not a prolific director in the first place.

This year, he has made two movies, one "Women's Heart" and one "Xibao", these two movies have consumed a lot of his efforts.

So now he doesn't have the energy, and he doesn't have the ability to shoot a new film, he just wants to take a good rest, recharge himself, and find the feeling of wanting to pick up the guide tube again.

"Okay, then we'll talk about it when you're ready." Han Jin smiled and said, "Director Wu, do you have any new plans?" ”

"I haven't it yet, I don't have it yet." Wu Yusen replied very sincerely.

was able to shoot "The True Color of Heroes", which was actually very unexpected to him. And he put too much effort into this movie, which also made him feel exhausted after filming this movie.

Just like after Akira Toriyama finished drawing "Dragon Ball", he didn't have the energy to create another manga masterpiece for a long time. There are really not many people in this world who can be like Osamu Tezuka and Wang Jing, who will always be inspired and have the urge to create.

"Then think about it and give a sequel to "The True Color of Heroes". Han Jin smiled. (To be continued......)
