"Women's Heart" is a literary film, and it is difficult to make money in literary films.

Guan Jinpeng thought that Han Jin should at least look at the box office before deciding whether to continue to invest in him.

After all, it costs one or two million Hong Kong dollars to make a movie, and if you lose it, it might as well be spent on eating, drinking, and having fun.

One million Hong Kong dollars, go to the Tycoon Night Fair, you can play for half a year.

"Jin Shao, the "Women's Heart" hasn't been released yet, do you want to look at the box office again and make a decision?" Guan Jinpeng asked hesitantly.

He is a cautious and sensitive person, so he is always a little forward-looking before doing things.

"Don't worry, I don't need to be suspicious, I don't need to be suspicious. Since I keep you in the company, I believe in your abilities. Han Jin waved his hand and said.

When Guan Jinpeng heard Han Jin say this, he suddenly had an urge to "die for his confidant".

He spent two years just looking for investment in "Women's Heart", if it weren't for Han Jin giving him this opportunity, he would still be working as a casual worker in the crew.

Now that Han Jin wants to invest in his new film again, and says that he trusts his ability, how can he not make Guan Jinpeng grateful.

"Thank you, Jin Shao." Guan Jinpeng said movingly, "I really want to shoot Ms. Yishu's "Xibao". ”

"Xibao?!" Han Jin was stunned, he hadn't read that story, and he really didn't know what it was about.

Kwan then told the story of "Xi Bao" in the shortest language, about a beautiful girl who was originally in her prime and came from a prestigious school, but turned down a suitor because of money, but committed herself to marrying his father.

And in the end, he was cheated again. Seeing her inviter murdered by her husband at gunpoint. Eventually, when her husband died of illness and she became a widow with a lot of wealth, she realized that she had lost her most precious thing.

Han Jin couldn't help but sigh a little after hearing it, "What do you think of this story?" ”

"Xi Bao is very popular among young people in Hong Kong now, especially some girls regard the heroine as an idol." Yu Zheng introduced.

"Idol?!" Han Jin was stunned, he originally thought that this book was a criticism of the heroine's greed for vanity. The last person is lonely and old, how can anyone still regard her as an idol?!

"Make no mistake, this heroine is clearly a tragic figure." He asked, confused.

"From a man's point of view, she is indeed a tragic figure. But from a woman's point of view, many girls appreciate her courage to act boldly and pursue her own happy life. Yu Zheng explained.

Han Jin and Wang Jing glanced at each other, and they really couldn't understand what these girls thought.

However, if we look at the current reality in Hong Kong, it seems that it is not difficult to understand this phenomenon.

Although Hong Kong has examples of self-made businesses such as Lee Ka-shing and Fok Ying-tung, the gap between the rich and the poor in society is widening day by day. But it is also a fact that cannot be ignored.

Like Han Jin lived in Shek Kip Mei Public Housing before he became famous, and the three of them lived in a small house of five square meters, and it was a little difficult to even turn around. Now that he has become famous, he currently owns tens of thousands of square feet of property, and there is a mansion that has not yet been built. The gap between one and the other is thousands of times.

If a beautiful girl from a civilian background can exchange for a life that is thousands of times richer than before as long as she is willing to sacrifice a little of her hue, I believe that many people will be tempted.

Don't say anything else. Han Jin already has four "Xibao" in his own family. So he was just confused for a moment, and then he was relieved.

"Okay. In that case, then I can also make this movie. Han Jin nodded and said, "But pay attention to the influence, don't promote the doctrine of money first, lest we be scolded for teaching bad children." ”

"I'll pay attention, I don't have a lot of energy." Guan Jinpeng nodded. "In fact, the focus of my attention is also the entanglement between the heroine Xibao's pursuit of money, materiality and free love."

"Okay, then this drama is decided." Han Jin nodded.

"Ah Jin, even if that's the case, we only have three dramas to shoot now. If you want to protect the source of the film. I have to continue to expand and recruit talents from the outside world. Wang Jing said to Han Jinjian.

"Now most of the famous talents are in Xinyicheng and Golden Harvest, if you forcibly poach, it is not worth offending the two companies." Han Jin waved his hand and said, "I think this is good, so I will simply set up a film fund to support aspiring and capable filmmakers." ”

"From the New Wave to the present, Hong Kong films have also accumulated a lot of talents. Many of them may only lack an opportunity, which is why they have become unremarkable. is like Director Guan, if it weren't for the filming of "Women's Heart" now, who would have known that he was actually so powerful? Han Jin said with a smile.

Guan Jinpeng's face flushed, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he was praised in person.

"I think it's a good thing that we have created a film fund to encourage filmmakers who have never met the same talents, who are full of passion and dreams. It not only excavated talents, but also directly competed with Jiahe and Xinyicheng. What do you guys think? Han Jin asked.

"It's so good to mention this, I support it less." Yu Zheng clapped her hands and smiled, she was already very concerned about the Hong Kong film exhibition. If it weren't for her pulling funds around for this year's Academy Awards, it would probably have been stopped this year. Now that she heard that Han Jin was going to fund the Hong Kong Film Exhibition, she naturally raised her hands in favor.

"But how does this fund work, and where does the money come from?" Wang Jing asked worriedly.

It is not just a matter of getting a fund, and there must be at least 20 million or 30 million Hong Kong dollars in terms of funds, and there must be a relatively stable source of funds in the future.

Another aspect of project review also needs to be noted, there are more frustrated filmmakers in Hong Kong, and everyone wants to use a sum of money to revive their glory. There are so many people, who should be supported, who should not be supported, and how to distinguish them.

"Don't worry about money, I sold a few songs a few days ago and made hundreds of millions of dollars," Han Jin said with a smile......

Burst! Wang Jing directly squirted out a sip of coffee;

Click! Yu Zheng exerted too much force, and the pencil in his hand was also broken;

Liu Zhenwei, Guan Jinpeng, and Ji Fanghua were all stunned.

"Uh...... What's wrong, you guys? Han Jin asked suspiciously.

"I didn't hear it clearly. Ah Jin, how much money did you just say you made selling songs? Wang Jing wiped his mouth and asked cautiously.

"Hundreds of millions of dollars~" Han Jin blinked.

“……”

Everyone present fell into a stupor again.

"Hundreds of millions...... Dollars?! Wang Jing was almost scared to death by Han Jin.

With such a large amount of money, it is estimated that an entire office can be filled. If all of them are replaced with gold bricks, it is estimated that the entire floor of the company can be flattened.

"yes, that's more than enough, right?" Han Jin asked with a smile.

"There is little energy. Where did you get all that money? Hundreds of millions of dollars, oh my God!" Yu Zheng, who has always been calm, couldn't help but say excitedly.

"I sold a few songs and received an advance payment." Han Jin waved his hand and said, "It's not a big deal, don't be too excited." ”

"You can make hundreds of millions of dollars by selling a few songs, can you not make people excited?!" Everyone couldn't help but mutter. It's still a bit hard to digest this news, and it's hard to believe that this is the reality.

Not to mention 100 million US dollars, even if it is 100 million Hong Kong dollars, it is estimated that it will be difficult to earn it in a lifetime.

"There is little energy. Is this true? Liu Zhenwei couldn't help but ask, he had been a manager of a financial company before, so he naturally knew how much 100 million US dollars was worth.

It is no exaggeration to say that such a large sum of money, even Hong Kong's rich Li Ka-shing cannot be taken lightly.

"Of course it's true, I need to coax you with this." Han Jin said with a smile.

"Wow, if that's really the case, then what kind of film fund are we going to have? directly fought with Jiahe and Princess Jin. Wang Jing slapped the table excitedly, and his face turned red as if he was drunk. It was clear that he was very emotional at the moment.

"It's not time to meet each other yet." Han Jin waved his hand and said with a smile, "Spending a lot of money to poach people is not only not beneficial to Hong Kong films, but will greatly damage its foundation." ”

"Since we can poach people with high salaries, people can also pay high prices to dig back. When the time comes, these stars will be good or directors. I don't feel at ease making movies, I only think about my own worth, what kind of dedication did I talk about at that time? Han Jin waved his hand and said.

It is not for nothing that he said this, in the late 80s, Taiwanese film companies invested in the Hong Kong film industry. All powerful directors have set up their own doors, but all actors with box office appeal are rolling several plays at the same time. It was really an era of making money and shark fin rice.

However, the Taiwanese film company's method not only did not make Hong Kong films exhibited, but also dealt a heavy blow to the foundation of Hong Kong films. People's hearts are in turmoil, no one is willing to make a serious film, and a bad movie like a piece of is filmed, which smells incredible, breaks the audience's heart, and also leads to the final decline of Hong Kong films.

Han Jin's investment in Hong Kong films is to hope that it can be exhibited healthily, rather than thinking about pulling out seedlings and destroying Hong Kong films. Therefore, although Wang Jing's mention is feasible, he is not ready to carry it out.

"It makes sense to say that Jin Shao said, instead of poaching with high salaries, it is better to dig up those filmmakers who have never met talents." Yu Zheng also nodded.

"Okay, but I'd really like to try what it's like to poach people waving money." Wang Jing said with an embarrassed smile.

Hearing him say this, everyone present couldn't help laughing.

It's not just him, everyone also wants to taste the taste of good money.

"Brother Jing, don't worry, sooner or later there will be a chance." Han Jin said with a smile.

At the end of the 80s, Taiwanese film companies invaded Hong Kong films. At that time, it will be the life and death of these film companies.

Han Jin knew that they would not cry when they saw the coffin, and now that they were fully promoting the third-line alliance, it seemed to them that they were playing a conspiracy.

Instead of sticking a hot face to someone's cold buttocks, it's better to take a break and settle accounts when they taste the bitterness.

"Then the foundation has money, and how to operate must have a charter." Wang Jing asked Han Jindao.

"Yes, that's good." Han Jin nodded, "I think the films invested by the foundation should take into account both business and art, and we can't favor one over the other." Because the foundation must have a certain amount of profit if it wants to continue to be healthy. However, in order to pursue commercial interests, literary and artistic films are not allowed to be established. ”

"So I wanted to set up a committee to review the project. The members of the committee should uphold a fair and objective attitude, and at the same time, they should be clean and self-reliant, and should not engage in favoritism. Han Jin said again.

"And what about the committee members?" Yu Zheng asked curiously.

Han Jin thought for a while, "I want to be led by Brother Jing and Yu Zheng to gather a group of people who love Hong Kong movies to form a review panel, just like the jury in the court now." ”

"The applicant must submit his or her own script first, and there must be a complete script, and those that only have a story or an outline are not allowed." Han Jin added, "Then first review the script, then review whether he has the ability to complete the shooting, and finally vote on whether to invest in him." ”

"Of course, before investing, we have to sign a contract, stipulating that they must start filming according to the script, otherwise we have the right to recover the investment, and we will also be held accountable." Han Jin finally said.

"Uh......" Wang Jing was stunned, he didn't expect Han Jin to come up with such a ghost idea, but it seems to sound pretty good, (my novel "Jin Song Xiangjiang" will have more fresh content on the official WeChat platform, and there will also be a 1oo% lottery gift for everyone!)
