Chapter 606: Investing in Chen Peisi
After singing, it doesn't mean that the rehearsal is over.
Han Jin reflected to Huang Yihe again that the sound effect just now was a little insufficient.
Huang Yihe listened to Han Jin's reflection and couldn't help but be a little puzzled. To his ears, Han Jin actually sang very well. If you look at the reaction of the audience, you can see that it is absolutely outstanding.
But since he said so, Huang Yihe couldn't ignore it, and hurriedly asked the staff to debug it again.
After that, Han Jin continued to sing twice before nodding with satisfaction.
Huang Yihe waited for the second time to debug, and when he listened to Han Jin's singing again, he felt that it seemed to be a little better than before, and he couldn't help but be surprised by his professionalism.
Generally speaking, singers like mainland singers do not have such awareness. As long as the sound is not too bad, they generally don't ask for it again.
"Mr. Han, it's really amazing, you can tell the difference in such a small way." Huang Yihe said with a smile, like him, he couldn't tell the gap at all.
"It's just that there is a specialization in the art industry, and practice makes perfect." Han Jin waved his hand and said, "I hope it didn't delay everyone's time too much." β
"No, no." Huang Yihe smiled and said, "Mr. Han's meticulous attitude towards art is what makes us admire." β
Han Jin also smiled, and was about to say something to him again, when a staff member came over to report to Huang Yihe.
βοΌwβww.
"Director Huang, you're busy, I won't bother." Han Jin waved his hand.
"Well, I'm sorry, Mr. Han, I'm too busy. Then please take care of yourself. Huang Yihe said apologetically.
Han Jin nodded, and did not go back to the hotel immediately, but chose to sit down and enjoy the show.
"Mr. Han, we are your fans, can you sign us?" As soon as he sat down, a few little girls came over and said. Looking at the costumes, they should be dancers in the Spring Festival Gala program group.
"Okay." Han Jin nodded, and then signed his name on their notebook.
"Thank you!" The group of girls smiled sweetly, and then chirped away like a flock of birds.
"Wow, you look so handsome!" "It's so well written!" "What a good attitude!"
Han Jin overheard their voices. I couldn't help but smile.
After this group of dancers left, many people came to Han Jin to ask for autographs.
In the 80s, Hong Kong and Taiwan artists appeared relatively few in the mainland, and the so-called things were vaguely expensive! In addition, Hong Kong and Taiwan are originally more developed than the mainland, so in the eyes of mainlanders, Hong Kong and Taiwan artists are more delicate. Not to mention that Han Jin is still so handsome, and the songs he sings are so good.
Originally, after he was recognized, many people wanted to ask him for an autograph. However, because everyone has less contact with Hong Kong and Taiwan artists, they don't know what temperament they have. Are you willing to take care of them?
Now seeing that those dancing girls asked for autographs and were not rejected by Han Jin, someone immediately heard the news, and in a few moments, thirty or forty people surrounded Han Jin.
Chirping, swallow dancing warbler crying, very lively!
"Give me all back, noisy and noisy, what is it like?!" At this time, a cadre in the station saw that they were really making trouble. It's like I've never seen anything in the world, and I'm embarrassed and thrown home. couldn't help but come over and scold.
These fans stuck out their tongues and were reluctant to leave.
Han Jin breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't expect that he would hide in the mainland, and he still couldn't be clean.
"Is it time to go to the South Pole or the North Pole next time?" Han Jin couldn't help but think about it.
After he finished the rehearsal, the next rehearsal was Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao's sketch "Selling Mutton Skewers", and the satirical illegal traders were shoddy. The story of cutting corners.
Han Jin had watched this sketch before, but it was on TV. Now it's the first time I watched it from the scene, and the two of them laughed out loud.
Especially the part where Chen Peisi learned from the Uyghur Alibaba, it was simply a stroke of genius, and it was hard to understand how he could have such inspiration. However, Han Jin didn't expect that the mutton skewers in eighty-five years would be so expensive. A string costs two cents, and with the monthly salary of forty yuan for ordinary workers, eating six strings is a day's salary, which is really not something that ordinary people can eat.
No wonder it was popular to go to the sea at that time, and there was also a saying that it was better to sell eggs than to engage in atomic bombs.
After the rehearsal of the two, they won a round of applause from the audience, and they really deserve to be the most popular sketch king in China.
Han Jin also applauded enthusiastically and greeted him with a smile, "The performance of the two of you is really wonderful!" β
Chen Peisi smiled, he really didn't expect that Han Jin, a Hong Kong native, also knew how to appreciate mainland sketches, which really surprised him.
"Thank you, the song you just sang is also very good." Chen Peisi said with a smile.
"Thank you." Han Jin nodded, "The two of you take a step to speak, okay?" β
Chen Peisi smiled and glanced at Zhu Shimao.
Zhu Shimao didn't think about what he could talk about with Han Jin, but since he had already been invited, he nodded.
Han Jin then took Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao to sit down.
"I appreciate the performance of the two of you, it's very characteristic and funny." Han Jin smiled, "Have you ever thought about making a comedy movie?" β
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao glanced at each other, "The approval of the unit is required to make a movie, and the two of us can't make it even if we want to." β
Han Jin smiled, knowing that there is no precedent for private investment in films in the mainland, and the country has not yet opened up this field. It was not until the 90s, when state-owned enterprises were restructured and assumed responsibility for their own profits and losses, that private film companies appeared, and there was room for development.
"Don't worry, as long as the two of you are willing to shoot." Han Jin said with a smile.
It is not easy for private capital in the mainland to enter the film and television industry, but it is much simpler for foreign capital like Han Jin. In order to promote the development of the domestic film industry, the mainland has the conditions to bring in funds, actors, and technical personnel from Hong Kong and Taiwan.
For example, the Blue Bird Film Company, founded by Ms. Xia Di, has invested in the filming of many films in the mainland, such as "Running to the Angry Sea", "Heroes from Ancient Times", and "Years Like Water".
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao smiled and nodded, but as an actor, who doesn't like to make movies. Now that there is this big guy from Hong Kong who wants to invest in making movies, it is even better.
"However, you made a movie, and there was no theater release." Chen Peisi said worriedly. "If you can't make money, can't you lose money?"
"It's okay, I have my own cinema chain in Hong Kong." Han Jin waved his hand and said.
said a word, which scared Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao half to death.
Neither of them could imagine the concept of privately owned cinemas, and in their minds, movie theaters were all state. And the old is expensive, and he owns a private theater, how much money does he have to have?!
"Do you really have your own theater?" Chen Peisi asked in surprise.
Han Jin smiled, "Have you ever heard that there is a Shaw Brothers in Hong Kong?" β
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao nodded, they can be regarded as people in the system, and they can always have access to some information that ordinary people can't reach, so they naturally know that there is a Shaw Brothers in Hong Kong.
"Then it closed last year, you know?" Han Jin asked with a smile again.
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao showed surprised expressions, as if they heard that the earth was about to be destroyed. In their impressions. Shaw Brothers is the largest film company in Hong Kong, how can it be said that it will close when it closes.
Han Jin smiled, knowing that their information was outdated enough, "Shaw Brothers closed last summer, and I bought the theater chain under its command." β
"Really?!" Zhu Shimao asked in surprise, feeling that Han Jin's speech was too unreliable.
A cinema line, how much it has to sell, he can't think about it.
Han Jin actually said that he bought the theater. Is this possible?
"How much did it cost?" Chen Peisi asked curiously.
Han Jin smiled, "I didn't spend a penny." β
"......" Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao were stunned. It feels like Han Jin is having fun with the two of them.
Just now he said that he bought the Shaw Brothers theater, and now he says that he didn't spend a dime, is that sentence true?
"Shaw Brothers let me use it for free for a year, and I won't pay until this summer." Han Jin explained with a smile again.
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao glanced at each other, and they both felt that Han Jin's statement was a bit ridiculous.
You are not someone else's son, why would someone else let you take advantage of it for nothing. That's a lot of nonsense.
"If you don't believe me, I'll take you to Hong Kong and let you see it with your own eyes." Han Jin said with a smile.
Chen Peisi also smiled, "No, no." It's not that we don't believe it, or we can't get back to it for the time being. But Mr. Han, can Hong Kong people understand our brothers' movies? β
"It's a bit difficult." Han Jin smiled.
Chan's films are typical mainland comedy films, and comedy films have always had their limitations. is like Xu Guanwen, his comedy movies are very popular in Hong Kong, but they are not very popular in Taiwan and Nanyang.
Because of the different cultural environments, it is difficult for many jokes in the movie to resonate in other places. Even if Zhou Xingchi was a smash hit in the 90s, his movies still couldn't sell in South Korea, and it wasn't until "Shaolin Football" played with computer special effects that he began to become popular in South Korea.
"And you're still investing?" Chen Peisi asked in surprise.
Knowing that movies are unlikely to be popular in Hong Kong, he is still willing to invest, isn't this a lack of heart?!
Han Jin smiled, "Because I like you, I'm willing to invest, even if I lose money, I'm happy." β
He still remembers how happy it was to watch Chen Peisi's sketches and movies when he was a child. But one year, they suddenly didn't appear on the stage again.
Later, Han Jin learned that they were blocked by CCTV, and Chen Peisi failed to invest in the film and went into the mountains to plant pomegranates; Zhu Shimao went abroad to study, and he was depressed for four or five years before he came out again. The encounter between these two can be regarded as a bump!
Han Jin didn't want them to be so rough in this life, so he wanted to help them.
And Han Jin still remembers how happy he was when he watched "The Second Son Opens a Shop", "Filial Sons and Virtuous Grandsons Waiting", and "The Queen Mother is Auspicious" when he was a child.
In his eyes, Chen Peisi is China's Charlie. Chaplin is a master of comedy, and he is a person who really understands comedy, much stronger than Feng Xiaogang and others. It's not vulgar, it's not vulgar, it's not kitsch, it's completely confident, but it's a pity that I was born at the wrong time and was suppressed by others.
Otherwise, he will keep making movies and acting in sketches, maybe the movies in the mainland will not be like in his previous life. It's just a collection of bad movies, you are rotten and I am even worse, rotten to the point of being old and rotten, and rotten to the point of rotten sea and rocks. And the sketch will not always ridicule the disabled and mentally retarded, nor will it be full of hymns, empty and boring, full of falsehoods and empty clichΓ©s, extremely disgusting.
Therefore, in order to protect them, or to leave some fire for mainland movies, Han Jin is willing to invest in the filming of the two of them. Even if you lose a few million or tens of millions for this, it's fine.
With his current net worth, even if he loses 200 million a month, he will play as if he is playing.
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao glanced at each other, but they both felt that they had either met a madman or a liar.
Otherwise, how could such stupid things be said!
On the first day we met, I said that I liked them, and I was willing to invest in making movies for them, and even said that I was willing to lose money, this is not a fool or a liar, who is it!
"Alas, Lao Mao'er, the director called us." Chen Peisi said suddenly.
"Where?" Zhu Shimao didn't react for a while.
Chen Peisi hurriedly kicked him.
Zhu Shimao immediately reacted, "Yes, yes, isn't it." Mr. Han, we have to go one step ahead. β
With that, the two stood up and hurried away.
Han Jin smiled, knowing that the two of them didn't believe in their strength.
"Forget it, it's useless to talk more, let's go back and see the real chapter." Han Jin said with a smile
