Sure enough, the next day, many newspapers in Hong Kong put photos of Boss Lei walking out of the New Arts City with a black face on the front page to celebrate the reception. For such a thing, in addition to the big thunder, Boss Lei also gave Mecca a death task, and he must do his best to shoot a movie that has passed the box office record of "Happy Ghost".

Such a task has allowed the establishment of the new art city, and the various problems have not yet been run-in, and the bald head is even more shiny. Because of this task, it is very difficult, very difficult, even if he is an old man, he is not very sure.

After all, in the Hong Kong film industry, for so many years, until now, there are only two movies with a box office of more than 10 million, "Senior Brother Out" and "Happy Ghost", and only "Happy Ghost" with a box office of 20 million.

It can even be said that this movie has won more than 24 million box office, which is a big fluke. If it didn't happen to be a summer vacation, or it happened that there was a movie with a box office of more than 10 million before, and the table of "Happy Ghost" was better than "Brother and Brother", which attracted the media to see if it could break the record, plus there were 40 theaters where this movie was screened. Except for the leftist cinemas, they basically occupy more than half of the cinemas in Hong Kong.

The high-density media bombardment, coupled with the excellent quality of the film itself, has fully opened the market, for a variety of reasons, as long as there is one less, "Happy Ghost" will not reach such a box office height. Now Boss Lei has to ask them to make a movie that has passed the box office of "Happy Ghost" regardless of other objective reasons, which is really embarrassing.

Mecca's analysis is quite in place, you must know that even the box office of the original movie "Happy Ghost", and the reason for the increase in ticket prices, the original box office was only more than 17 million. Even Li Mingbao only expected the box office of his movie to be about 12 or 3 million at the beginning, even if it was higher than the box office of "Senior Brother Out", it was not much higher.

But the reality is that Li Mingbao's pirated movie actually sold higher than the original box office, which not only surprised others, but also Li Mingbao himself did not expect it. I think that when the box office came out, the sixth uncle was there to celebrate in person, but Li Mingbao himself was stupid, and kept asking whether the box office was true.

"Happy Ghost" is on fire, not only Li Mingbao, the producer, is on fire, but even Li Minghui, a new director, is now on the Shaw Brothers set, which is also very majestic. Chu Yuan, an old man known as a director of tens of millions, does not have much confidence in front of Li Minghui, a new director of 20 million. Originally, he was on the set just because Uncle Tian Lin valued him, and he had a little status, but he became better than the blue, and even Uncle Tian Lin often praised Li Minghui when he saw him, saying that Li Minghui was good.

If Li Minghui is indirectly benefited, then Chen Yulian, Zhong Chuhong, and Li Saifeng, who starred in "Happy Ghost", have now become hot in wireless. Whether it's a TV series or a movie, I want to get these three people over, even if the three can't get together, it's not bad to get one.

Li Saifeng has to push off many scenes because he is still studying, and Chen Yulian originally played soy sauce in a TV series, but now he directly asks the director to change to an important supporting role, if it is not for the difficulty of changing the protagonist, then the director can't wait to change Chen Yulian to the female number one.

Of course, this is a TV series that is already filming and is still on the air. And those TV series and movies that are still preparing for casting are not so troublesome, and they directly let Chen Yulian play the leading role, the female number one. With so many film appointments, for Chen Yulian, who has been tepid in wireless for several years, she immediately became a first-line red star.

But to say that the most popular in the crew of "Happy Ghost" is not Li Saifeng, nor Chen Yulian, but Zhong Chuhong. Because of Zhong Chuhong's performance in the film, there is both sexy charm and girlish innocence, the combination of the two temperaments gives people a strong impact, and even many teenagers go to watch "Happy Ghost", not for anything else, just for every shot of Zhong Chuhong. In this case, although she is also the heroine of the happy ghost, Zhong Chuhong is definitely the most sought after. The sixth aunt even said good things about Li Mingbao in front of the sixth uncle several times because she signed Zhong Chuhong and Li Saifeng.

The popularity of "Happy Ghost" not only directly ignited the box office market of the Hong Kong film industry, but also made the works that followed the trend become popular. So the summer vacation hasn't completely ended, and many movie theaters have launched all kinds of ghosts. Although the quality of these ghost content is not guaranteed at all because of the shooting. But in terms of box office response, it is actually very good, although none of them can reach a box office of five million, but a box office of one or two million, there are still many follow-up films that can reach it.

Originally, follow-up films were shoddy things, and they were very frugal in cost, and anyone with a box office of one or two million would make a profit. Even the Shaw Brothers also launched the follow-up film "Martial Arts Ghost Fighting Ghosts", which also found a few young actresses, but they wore ancient martial arts suits, and according to Li Hanxiang's style, they were shot extremely salty and wet, which is such a movie whose content has nothing to do with "Happy Ghost", and actually received a box office of more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars, which really made Li Hanxiang, the director, not expect.

Other people are on fire because of "Happy Ghost", and Li Mingbao, who is the center of the storm, was originally even more popular. But this guy doesn't show up like other people, there is no new topic to hype, after the reporter broke all the topics that can be broken by Li Mingbao, the news on Li Mingbao's side is finally less.

Among those revelations, there are those who are popular, and naturally there are those who are declining. Singing red, it is natural to say that Li Mingbao has changed from a teenager who only knows how to fight to the producer of the highest-grossing movie in Hong Kong, such a legendary struggle experience is worshipable, and Ming Pao is also quite unkind, although Mr. Jin Yong has always explained that the newspaper does not survive by breaking news. But in Li Mingbao's matter, Ming Pao did not play a glorious role, and directly broke the news that Li Mingbao was the author of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".

If this is just the beginning of unkindness, then Mingbao will give Li Mingbao's "Iron and Blooded Tianjiao" while it is hot, so that everyone knows that Li Mingbao can not only shoot modern dramas, but also write historical articles, but also write martial arts novels, and use topics such as eliminating the three evils everywhere, as well as King Chuzhuang's three years of silence and a blockbuster, to talk about Li Mingbao's changes. directly made Li Mingbao's previous pen name Pu Jia useless, and on the new Ming Pao layout, it was changed to Li Mingbao's three big characters.

Ming Pao is using the topic of Li Mingbao being a literati to attract people, and Oriental Daily is using the relationship between Li Mingbao and wireless to attract people, originally, if "Happy Ghost" is not popular, the relationship between Li Mingbao and wireless is not much attractive, but now "Happy Ghost" is on fire, and the relationship between Li Mingbao and wireless executives is placed in front of everyone, let everyone know that Li Mingbao has such achievements, and wireless also has a lot to do with wireless, if Shaw Brothers and wireless did not give Li Mingbao so much help, Li Mingbao can't be the producer of this movie at all, and there will be no box office record.

Both Ming Pao and Oriental Daily have topics to say, but Sing Tao Daily is not close to Li Mingbao because of its previous refusal to advertise. But Sing Tao Daily is not without topics to say, Li Mingbao's past black experience was dug up by Sing Tao Daily. The three major daily newspapers in Hong Kong, two of which are popular and one of which are black, are quite marketable. If it weren't for Li Mingbao, who hadn't shown up outside since the release of "Happy Ghost", these newspapers would have continued to sing.

So what has Li Mingbao been doing lately? He's busy, very busy. Since he knew that the movie could be successful, he temporarily put down the problems on the movie, and spent his main energy on writing new scripts and updating "Kunlun".

It's not that Li Mingbao doesn't want to be interviewed by the outside world, it's just that those interviews don't do him much good now. What should be known to those newspapers, those newspapers know, and being interviewed is just nonsense.

He doesn't have a lot of time, where is the time to run out and talk nonsense? Besides, he is not a star, he doesn't need exposure, it's good that others know his name, as for what he looks like, there is no need for the outside world to care much.

In these days, code words are a technical job, and it is also a hard work. Not everyone can write 45oo words in an hour like Ni Kuang, who can write by hand, and it is also in traditional Chinese. Li Mingbao can't do such a hand. In the years when there was no computer typing, it was quite painful to write by hand, and when Li Mingbao wrote "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" before, because there was no need to rush work, it didn't matter if he wrote slowly. But now, whether it is "Kunlun" or a new script, it has to be written in a very short time, because there is not much time for him, and the new film needs to be screened at Christmas, and this time it is already the beginning of September, less than three months before Christmas. If Li Mingbao doesn't hurry up, the book "Kunlun" will have to wait until next year to write it.

Li Mingbao himself doesn't matter, it's not a big deal if "Kunlun" is written again next year, but it is not so easy to explain on the side of Ming Pao, after "Iron and Blood Tianjiao" was published, the response was quite good, and Ming Pao needs the manuscript of "Kunlun" even more. Under the premise that Ming Pao pinched Li Mingbao's "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" to be published, even if Li Mingbao was tired, he had to finish "Kunlun", otherwise, he would not be able to make a new movie with peace of mind.

Although because of the box office success of "Happy Ghost", Li Mingbao has become not short of money, with a box office of 24 million, Li Mingbao's share can get more than 13 million, and there are also overseas box office shares to enjoy. If the overseas box office sells well, it will be more than the Hong Kong box office, and the preliminary estimate will not be less than 20 million. But this money, including the box office in Hong Kong, for the time being, Li Mingbao can't get it, because "Happy Ghost" has just been painted, and the box office is counted, but you still have to pay taxes, and some other things, the real money is in hand, and you have to wait for half a month. During this period, the publication fee on Ming Pao's side became the majority, and Li Mingbao naturally couldn't offend Ming Pao at this time.

originally wanted to sit at home with peace of mind, and didn't go out until the new film started, but when a person's phone called, Li Mingbao knew that he couldn't sit at home. Because the person who made this call was Zhao Yazi.
