Chapter 208: An Invitation to the Academy Awards

Xiangjiang Cinema Line counted the box office of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" in advance, and they were also pleasantly surprised. After all, they have been in the industry for so many years, and they have never seen a movie that can get such a high box office in one day.

Many movies may not even get two million at the box office. For those shoddy movies, the final results are almost in the millions. But take a look at "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" frantically plundered the box office in one day, and you can see what kind of movie-watching frenzy the movie "Those Years" triggered.

"Mr. Luo, let's see if our previous plan has changed." The staff of Xiangjiang Cinema Line, seeing that "Those Years" got such good results, were also moved to release "Those Years" around the clock.

It is important to know that in the original release plan, 95% of the screenings of the Xiangjiang Cinema Line were arranged for "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", and the other 5% were left to release other movies. The previous plan of the Xiangjiang Cinema Line was like this, that is, it hoped that with the drive of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", it would drive the number of moviegoers of other movies.

"Nope." Luo Pinghua of the Xiangjiang Cinema Line immediately objected. "According to the data obtained, the attendance rate of other movies in our theater is also very good when they are released. "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" should try our best to extend its vitality and let more people go to Xiangjiang Cinemas. ”

Luo Pinghua also hopes that "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" can be released for a longer time. Coupled with the movies that were released in 5% of the screenings, the attendance rate was also very good. On top. Xiangjiang Cinema Line has also made a lot of money.

When "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" was released, it was indeed a good practice to include the number of other movies. Because people who want to watch the movie tickets of "Those Years" cannot be able to watch the movie immediately, many people are reluctant to leave after buying movie tickets. Seeing other movies released in Xiangjiang Cinemas, and they are all good movies, many people will choose to watch them, and the right is to sit down and wait for the show of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years".

In Oriental Entertainment, Li Le also returned to his office after chatting with Chen Baixiang. He didn't want to stay in the company any longer. However, it is impossible to say that he left the company soon after he arrived.

Li Le has not yet done the heat in his office. Wang Jing came to the door.

As soon as he entered the door, Wang Jing smiled and said, "Where did you go last night, no one answered any calls to you." ”

There was a call last night, and it was really unclear that Li Le was not there. He laughed, "Just take a stroll outside." ”

"Didn't do anything else? I know what is going on. ”

Looking at Wang Jing. Li Le knew that he had something bad about him. He laughed and scolded, "I'm not like you. ”

In fact, Li Le was late the night before and was no longer in the apartment. But he didn't do anything with Li Jiaxin. After sending Li Jiaxin back at night, Li Le also returned to the apartment. It's just that at that time, it was already about two o'clock in the morning.

Wang Jing just made fun of Li Le. He also knew that Li Le was a person, and he said with a smile: "The box office of "Those Years" on the premiere day yesterday, you should know it!" ”

"You're not going to tell me about this, are you! If that's the case, I'll know it. "Wang Jing, there is nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, Li Le knows that Wang Jing must have other things.

"Or do you know me." Wang Jing didn't care if he was broken by Li Ledao. He took out a hidden invitation, threw it to Li Le and said, "Take a look! They asked me to hand it to you. ”

As a result, Li Le glanced at the invitation, he looked at Wang Jing and asked with a smile, "You also received it, right?" ”

"That's me, Wang Jing is in Hong Kong, and I'm also a well-known director. If I hadn't been invited, it would have been an Academy Award. "Wang Jing looked very proud, as if he had a very high status." They originally wanted to give it to you in person, but you are out of nowhere. There was no way for them to find me. ”

The invitation letter in Li Le's hand is a grand event for Hong Kong films, that is, the Hong Kong Film Awards.

It was originally set before the people invited, but with Li Le's rapid rise, it is impossible for the Academy Awards to forget Li Le aside. And in terms of the Academy Awards, they also very much expect Li Le to be present, which can also attract more people's attention.

Li Le is very concerned, and it is impossible not to see it at the Academy Awards. They also hope to invite Li Le to appear and draw the attention of others to the Academy Awards.

In the future, the Hong Kong Film Awards were prosperous. But at this time in the 90s, the Hong Kong Film Awards were a little difficult. The funds for the organization were all pieced together, and this was just how they were gathered. And when the actual awards ceremony is actually held, very few people will go to see it. The Hong Kong Film Awards will be so famous in the future, and it is also because after the reform that it has gradually attracted attention.

"Look at it, if you want to show your face then." Wang Jing said with a smile.

Li Le glanced at the date of the event, and he said with a smile: "Such a lively occasion, there should be no shortage of you!" Li Le also knew that Wang Jing couldn't miss it, and Wang Jing should go there on the day of the Academy Awards ceremony.

Wang Jing's form of making movies can almost be said to be unrelated to awards. After all, if you look at his movies, you can know that they are all commercial films. If a commercial film wants to win an award, it is almost the same as ascending to the sky.

"That's for sure, I'll definitely go over, it's up to you what you think." Wang Jing said with a grin. In his heart, he is already looking forward to the arrival of the Academy Awards.

"On September 7, you should also know that I will not stay in Hong Kong for that long."

Wang Jing's mind was also spinning fast, he looked at Li Le in surprise and said, "It won't be true!" Do you really want to go back to school? ”

Li Le nodded, but Li Le also knew that he was going to college to deal with it. Now that he is entering college, it is better to let himself be outside. After all, Li Le can learn more outside.

"I don't have anything to do this year, the gambling saint and "Those Years" missed the time, and they can only appear at tomorrow's Academy Awards. I think this is the invitation to me, and the Academy Awards want to use me to promote them. To put it bluntly, I just went to watch people win awards. Li Le also knew that if he attended, he would be an award presenter at most.

Wang Jing also knew that since Li Le had made up his mind, he couldn't change it. "I'm just the one who helps deliver the words, don't go and see yourself. But it's a pity. If only the two movies had been released earlier. We are all in time for this provincial event. ”

"It's the same next year, with the dazzling box office of the gambling saint, one of them is very competitive at the Academy Awards." In his heart, Li Le is also looking for information about the 9th Academy Awards in 90.

At the 9th Academy Awards. The best movie is Leaping Twilight. A film that is not very well-known. At least if Li Le didn't have foreign memories, he wouldn't know that there was such a movie in Ludao. Best Director, but a very famous director. John Woo, who pioneered the aesthetics of violence.

In terms of actors, it was Zhou Runfa, who everyone is familiar with, who once again got his hands on "The Story of Ah Lang".

In the movie, Liang Chaowei, who won the award and won the soft-handed hand, also showed his head and won the best supporting actor.

On top of the actress, Zhang Manyu also won her first actress award with "The Man Who Doesn't Take Off Her Socks".

and the king of comedy, Zhou Xingchi, also won the most promising newcomer award at the ninth session.

Thinking that Zhou Xingchi would win the best newcomer, Li Le couldn't help laughing. Li Le feels that it is too interesting, the gambling saint played by Zhou Xingchi got such a high box office, and he can only get the best newcomer. Li Le also said in his heart: "I hope there will be no accidents." If he misses this time, Zhou Xingchi will never have a chance to win this meaningful award. ”

"What are you laughing at?"

Seeing Li Le's sudden discovery, Wang Jing also felt very strange.

Of course, Li Le won't say the reason for his recent laughter, he looked at Wang Jing and said, "I was thinking, if you are grounded on the day of the Academy Awards, it will be a really interesting thing." ”

Wang Jing laughed and said, "The old man won't do that, he still wishes I could see the world more!" ”

"Uncle Wang can't ban your feet, but you also know that the company needs to open up the market. I see that you are also very capable, and Alaat can't leave, so what if I send you to a foreign country? ”

"That's a vicious idea." When Wang Jing heard Li Le say that, he also laughed and scolded.

"Alright, I'll go and see where I need help. If you're too idle, I don't mind finding something for you to do. Li Le said with a smile.

"I was careless in making friends!" Wang Jing pretended to be sad and said, "Okay! I'm just going to lose weight. ”

Wang Jing just left with his front foot, and Chen Baixiang also arrived at Li Le's office with his back foot. Li Le was puzzled, and said in his heart: "Do you feel that I am leaving Hong Kong, and both of them have come to me to find trouble." ”

After Chen Baixiang entered the door, he said with a smile: "I forgot to tell you just now, I sold the gambling saint to Xiangjiang Cinema for 2 million." Chen Baixiang was also dizzy before, and forgot to tell Li Le about the gambling saint.

"Although 2 million is to be kept in the company's account, I still want to report it to you." Chen Baixiang knew that 2 million Hong Kong dollars was nothing to Li Le, but 2 million was not a small amount of money, and Chen Baixiang still felt that it was good to talk to Li Le.

"2 million is also good, so that we can be more flexible in our funds." Don't look at "Those Years" is now very popular outside, but Oriental Entertainment actually has no funds that can be used. Sold the gambling saint to Xiangjiang Cinema for release and got 2 million, which can be said to be a timely rain.

After thinking about it, Li Le also smiled and said: "2 million, you look at the arrangement!" The gambling saint unexpectedly obtained 2 million income, Li Le didn't pay too much attention to it. With this amount of money, Li Le didn't think about making any arrangements at all.

"Okay." Chen Baixiang smiled and responded.

Seeing that Chen Baixiang still had no intention of leaving, Li Le also said, "Is there anything else?" (To be continued......)
