Chapter 219: Calling Him Over to Apologize
In fact, there are many actors like Brother in Hong Kong, such as Chen Long, the current pillar of Golden Harvest, and Hong Jinbao, who are treated differently. But their treatment is also in their own company, and if they cooperate with outside companies, there will always be some trouble.
But Zhou Yan is different, even if he was relatively depressed for a period of time, that is, before the filming of "The True Color of Heroes", his box office results during that time were not very good, but because of his relationship with Li Mingbao, when he was filming, even in Shaw Brothers, his treatment was the same as that of a first-line red star. You know, at that time, he didn't have many roles that he could handle.
Compared with Chen Long's tens of millions of box office results, Zhou Yan at that time was definitely a weakness in movies. But because of his relationship with Li Mingbao, even if his actual box office ability is not good, others will consider his opinion, because others know that with the relationship between Zhou Yan and Li Mingbao, Zhou Yan will get up sooner or later. Since that time, Zhou Yan has known how much influence Li Mingbao has in the Hong Kong film industry, and until now, he can call people like Xiang Huaqiang for some trivial things, and it is absolutely unscientific to grow up like this.
No matter what Zhou Yan thought, and Honggu's excited and scared look, it was already doomed after Li Mingbao's phone call. The rise of Hong Kong's big brother, that is, in the recent past, when Li Mingbao got the big brother, he was earlier than Hong Jinbao.
Although Li Mingbao is not so interested in this thing that looks like bricks more than telephones, because the phones in his head don't weigh a few pounds at all. Even the oldest phone used by the big guy in his memory is not such a brick, but a slightly smaller thing, and the further it goes, the phone becomes lighter and smaller.
But now in these years, Big Brother is really indispensable to Li Mingbao, at least when he wants to find someone, he doesn't have to go far to get a wired phone to use. Li Mingbao called, and the Xiang brothers were very positive. There is no way, after really entering this industry, the Xiang brothers finally figured out a lot of things, such as what kind of awesome storage zĂ i was in the past three major theaters, everyone in this circle basically can't get around these three major theaters, or the company behind the three major theaters.
Whether in front of the stage or behind the scenes, the strength of these three families is always refreshing the imagination of the Xiang brothers. And Li Mingbao is a newcomer, but he can unite the three companies together, although at the bottom may Li Mingbao's strength and these three companies have a huge gap, but at the top, Li Mingbao has an overwhelming advantage for any company.
The Xiang brothers, who understood this, also had a deep impression of Li Mingbao, and now Li Mingbao called and said that there were some things in the God of Gamblers crew that they needed to go over, how could the Xiang brothers dare to delay? After investing so much money into this world, if you don't have some results, how can you meet people? And if you want to show results, Li Mingbao is a shortcut, they know what they have to do very well.
So not long after Li Mingbao and the three of them had afternoon tea, Xiang Huaqiang came to the place where Li Mingbao and the others were staying now. Seeing Li Mingbao and Zhou Runhonggu together, Xiang Huaqiang didn't know what was wrong, so he greeted Li Mingbao with a smile, as for Zhou Yan and Zhong Chuhong, Xiang Huaqiang didn't care much, and nodded to give them face.
As soon as Xiang Huaqiang got out of the car, Li Mingbao was paying attention to Xiang Huaqiang's eyes. He has been thinking about a question, whether the attitude of the two brothers towards the actors is deliberate, or whether they don't care about the actors, this question is very important.
If they deliberately made this appearance, then it means that Yongsheng has other ideas about actors, or not only actors, but all other practitioners. Suppress people with power, so that everyone understands what they are doing Yongsheng, and in the future, they will grab the script and rob people, and others will hinder their power, so they will let it go more.
In this way, they will be much easier to make money, at least the vast majority of people in the film industry will give them face, which basically belongs to the ranks of rubbing the edge, grabbing resources, but grabbing it is not so blatant, even if they are caught, it is a big deal not to do it in the future, but as long as there is such a criminal record, the eyes of others looking at Yongsheng this movie theater will not be too calm. So if the Xiang brothers do this on purpose, then Li Mingbao must break their claws, otherwise when the new company comes in, they will all learn from Yongsheng's approach, how can ordinary film companies survive?
But if they do it unintentionally, they really don't care about the feelings of the actors, so if they are reasonable enough, they can get this thing done, at least not so troublesome. And now that Li Mingbao sees Xiang Huaqiang's cousin, he understands that Xiang Huaqiang and his two brothers really don't care much about the so-called star actors now, anyway, they think this person is good, and they can use it.
As for saying that Xiang Huaqiang's face is pretended, Li Mingbao feels that there is no such possibility, because when he called just now, he did not clearly explain what he was looking for the Xiang brothers, but only said about the God of Gamblers crew, such a question is very extensive, if Xiang Huaqiang guessed Li Mingbao's ultimate goal at once, then Yongsheng's means of doing things would not be so rough.
Be yourself and especially back to their company. There are more hidden channels to use for the description of the scene, so why use such a big means to directly attract everyone's attention?
Li Mingbao also forgot a little at this time, Hong Kong stars are very important in movies, in fact, it is not so obvious now, at least there is no such thing as fried films. Deformed star movies, at least in Hong Kong now, are not the most mainstream thing, especially in the few movies made by Li Mingbao, no popular stars have ever been used, but the effect is very good, at least for now, this force has not risen. Therefore, the Xiang brothers really didn't mean anything else when they treated Zhou Yan and Zhong Chuhong like this, because they didn't care at all.
Although Yongsheng is a newly opened film company, their starting point is too high, and having shares in United Cinemas means that there is no problem with the release of their films. This alone is enough to embarrass the vast majority of Hong Kong film companies, because they don't have any movies in their library, and they don't have one or two.
Even if it was Shaw Brothers, if it weren't for the Shaw Brothers Cinemas to digest the garbage before, their film library would definitely have the most inventory. has money and a theater chain, in such a situation, Xiang Huaqiang really doesn't care what a few actors think. If it weren't for the fact that this movie was produced by Li Mingbao, the Xiang brothers would not have been able to give Zhou Yan and Zhong Chuhong as high salaries in order to look better, so it would be fine.
After all, there is a law in the Hong Kong film industry now, as long as it is a movie produced by Li Mingbao, there is no one who does not sell well. And so far, there are only three movies supervised by Li Mingbao in Hong Kong, and God of Gamblers is the fourth, plus the sequels of Happy Ghost and Little Ghost, so that it is only six. But among the six films, two are sequels, and the actors will not change much, only the God of Gamblers, and the new actors will be enabled.
And the reason why Zhou Yan and Zhong Chuhong were able to get the roles in this movie, in the eyes of the Xiang brothers, is just because of their friendship with Li Mingbao. Otherwise, with Li Mingbao's production skills and excellent script, as long as the actors are not too bad, they can always make a good movie. So the importance of actors, they don't care at all, they can give you so much salary is already worthy of you, and you have to kick your nose in the face, do you really want us to win and will not change people?
After saying hello, Xiang Huaqiang naturally pulled out a stool and sat next to Li Mingbao, and then asked with a smile: "Li Sheng, the crew of the God of Gamblers, if you have any problems, just say it, as long as you can do something, we will definitely not be ambiguous." â
Seeing Xiang Huaqiang's smiling appearance, Li Mingbao didn't feel very good at beating him, because Li Mingbao knew that the Xiang brothers were unintentionally wrong, and if they really wanted to make a big move, it would obviously have the opposite effect.
So Li Mingbao also said with a smile: "In the preparation of the crew, Brother Qiang did a good job, and he is worthy of being a person who has made movies." The main purpose of my call to Brother Qiang today is because of Brother and Honggu.
The way you invited people before, Brother Qiang, was really a bit unruly, so I thought Brother Qiang, you had other ideas. But now that I see Brother Qiang, I obviously don't know very well, so forget about it, I just hope that Brother Qiang, when you invite people in the future, you will be a little gentle, otherwise you will frighten people. â
"Not very gentle? It turns out that this is the case, it seems that the people below have made Mr. Zhou and Honggu not very comfortable, and blame us for Yongsheng, because the preparation time is too short, so many times we have to use people, all of them are old people, what they did before, I think everyone knows it, so that attitude may really have some problems, if there is anything uncomfortable, I hope Mr. Zhou and Honggu will bear with me. Xiang Huaqiang heard Li Mingbao call himself over to complain, although he looked like he was apologetic, but only he knew what he thought in his heart.
And Xiang Huaqiang's appearance Zhou Yan and Zhong Chuhong also saw it in their eyes, although they received an apology from Xiang Huaqiang, but Zhou Yan's heart was secretly complaining, because Xiang Huaqiang had no intention of apologizing at all, it seemed that the two of them were worried about it.
Li Mingbao naturally saw the impatience in Xiang Huaqiang's heart, so he spoke again: "Brother Qiang, don't really take this matter seriously. After all, every industry has its own rules, and it's really not appropriate to hire someone like you. Let's take Honggu as an example, when your subordinates invited people, they actually broke into other people's crews to invite people, so it was easy to cause some misunderstandings. â
