At 10 o'clock in the morning, in the bright hall of the museum, in a warm applause, Zou Wenhuai, chairman of Golden Harvest, and Chen Lin jointly unveiled the bronze medal with the words "Hong Kong Museum" covered in red cloth.

After a year and a cost of 500 million Hong Kong dollars, the largest film museum in Asia and the only film museum in Hong Kong was completed.

At the following press conference, Golden Harvest and Jade Emperor Entertainment announced an explosive news - from now on, Jade Emperor Entertainment officially acquired Golden Harvest Films.

Although the reporters, including the guests who watched the ceremony, understood that Golden Harvest would close its doors sooner or later, they were shocked and embarrassed when this day really came.

Founded in 1970 by Chow Man-wai, Ho Koon-cheong and Liang Feng, Golden Harvest was one of the most influential film distribution companies in the heyday of Hong Kong films, single-handedly cultivating film superstars with international influence such as Bruce Lee, Chen Long and Zhang Manyu, and writing a brilliant chapter for Hong Kong films.

Today, Golden Harvest changed hands to Jade Emperor Entertainment, and the two companies merged and changed their names to Jade Emperor Golden Harvest (Group) Film Co., Ltd., ending a Xiangjiang legend.

The reporters looked excited and asked questions.

"Old Zou, why did you think of transferring Jiahe when you were still old and strong?"

"Xie Lu, thank you reporter friends for looking up to me." Zou Wenhuai sighed: "There are talents in the country, and Mr. Chen Lin is young and promising, and he has the style of my time. Hehe~~ I'm old, I'm relieved to hand over Jiahe to Mr. Chen Lin. ”

"Mr. Chen, can you say a few words?" A reporter from Ming Pao asked Chen Lin a question.

"I have a lot of feelings, and I don't know where to start for a while." Chen Lin's expression seemed to recall: "I remember that year was 1985, I was only 8 years old, my family had the first TV, I remember very clearly, I didn't want to eat that night, so I stayed in front of the TV and watched the first movie in my life." It is Mr. Bruce Lee's "Jingwumen". ”

"Since then, Hong Kong movies have never left my life, in my world, in the 80s and 90s, there was no Internet, there was no colorful entertainment like now, only Hong Kong movies accompanied."

"At that time, almost all the Hong Kong movies I watched appeared at the beginning of the word "Golden Harvest", at first I didn't know what the word "Lu Dao" represented, only that it should be very good, otherwise why would it appear on all the films I have watched? ”

"Later, when I went to university, I realized that Golden Harvest was the largest film company in Hong Kong. Since then, the word "Jiahe" has left a deep imprint in my heart, and one day when I have the ability to make a movie, suddenly the two words "Jiahe" buried in my heart popped up. There was a voice in the middle of nowhere, saying to me, 'What should I do?'

"I met Zou Lao in '99, and suddenly I understood what I was going to do. I think I want the word "Golden Harvest" to continue to appear at the beginning of all movies, and I hope that my next generation will also have these two words in their hearts. ”

"That's my gratitude at the moment, I'm done. Xie Lu thanks everyone, Xie Lu Xie Zou Lao. Chen Lin bowed to the reporters, guests and Zou Lao as he spoke, not thanks.

"That's a good point." Some guests couldn't help but applaud Chen Lin's sincere speech, Chen Lin hoped to continue the glory of Golden Harvest, and his confession won thunderous applause.

Next, Chen Lin introduced two other important directors of Jade Emperor Golden Harvest Film Company, they are Liu Dehua and Chen Long.

Seeing this scene, everyone who watched the ceremony had a possibility that Jiahe really had a comeback, if Chen Long alone could not save Jiahe, then add a superstar Liu Dehua? Isn't it enough to add a young richest man in the mainland who keeps creating miracles?

"Ladies and gentlemen. Dear journalists, At this time, Liu Dehua stepped forward and read out the 10 billion movie plan on behalf of the new company: "I know that you want to know what happened to the so-called "10 billion movie" plan of Lu Dao, and I will explain it to you. ”

"Ten billion movies means that we will invest a total of 10 billion yuan in the five years from 2001 to 2005 to shoot 10 international blockbusters. 10 domestic blockbusters, as well as an Asian rising star guide. ”

"What is an international blockbuster, the standard is to be on par with Hollywood, and the investment in each of the 10 films is not less than 100 million US dollars."

Liu Dehua just said this. Everyone was in an uproar, the hand ratio was unbelievable, and the reporters wanted to ask questions. "Everyone, please be calm. When I finish speaking, I will naturally give everyone a chance to ask questions. Liu Dehua continued to speak after calming the restless reporter.

"The investment in each of the 10 domestic blockbusters is not less than 50 million. I would like to say a few more words about the last one of the Asian Nova Guides. ”

"As we all know, there are many excellent new directors who do not have the opportunity to show their talents, after all, they are newcomers, they have no box office influence, appeal, commercial value, investors and bosses are reluctant to invest money in them, for fear of not making money, and we, the "Asian Rising Star Director", are here to support these new directors, give them funds to shoot, give them film production teams, let them make more excellent movies, and make China's film market more prosperous. ”

"We will select 10 young directors from the global Chinese community, give each director no less than 5 million to 20 million shooting funds, support them, and we will also customize a comprehensive and unique learning plan for these 10 directors. For example, we can participate in international blockbusters and top Hollywood teams, and our goal is not only to cultivate excellent domestic film directors, but also to cultivate directors with international standards. ”

The reporters listened to the "Asian Rising Star Guide Plan" and immediately remembered the "1.2 billion star-making plan" under the Jade Emperor. It seems that Jade Emperor Entertainment still likes to cultivate newcomers as always, from artists to directors.

And judging from the past style of Jade Emperor Entertainment, this plan should be real, it turned out that some people thought it was a gimmick, and the 1.2 billion star-making plan was actually true, and Jade Emperor Company really invested a huge amount of resources.

Reporters are thinking that this new Asian star director is planning to make all new directors flock to it.

"Andy, can you please specifically disclose your company's filming plans this year, is it difficult for you to plan to enter the international market this year?" A reporter from the Phoenix Satellite TV news channel seized the opportunity to ask a question.

"In February, that is, after the Spring Festival, Jade Emperor Jiahe's first Chinese blockbuster starring Brother Chen Long will officially start." Liu Dehua said that the reporter was not surprised, they had long known that "Spy Maze" had repeatedly delayed the filming plan due to financial problems, and now that the new owner has money, it is natural to shoot.

"The reporter mentioned whether we plan to enter the international market this year, my answer is yes, this is the company's secret, but after 2 months, everyone will also know, I will disclose a little in advance to everyone to know." Liu Dehua smiled mysteriously and said: "In March, Jade Emperor Golden Harvest will shoot the first large-scale magic blockbuster, with a total investment of 150 million US dollars. ”

150 million US dollars, isn't it 150 million yuan? Everyone thought they had misheard.

"You heard it right, it's 150 million US dollars, 1.2 billion yuan."

"1.2 billion RMB?" Suddenly, a reporter jumped out and said excitedly: "Andy, what you said is incredible, the total box office of domestic films last year was only about 1 billion, I really doubt that 1.2 billion movies can make money?" ”

"Hehe, I don't believe it either." Liu Dehua smiled lightly: "But as I just said, the film is for the global market, so even if it is 1.2 billion, as long as the film is excellent, it is still possible to make money." Hollywood's blockbuster investment has now crossed the $100 million threshold. In the eyes of others, 150 million is also an acceptable number. ”

"Andy, do you mean that your film is based on Hollywood?"

"Of course, otherwise do you think $150 million is a joke? Let me reveal that the film has invited top Hollywood directors and top special effects teams to join. ”

Wow - many reporters couldn't help but get excited when they heard this, but they still had questions: "I want to ask where your confidence comes from with such a huge investment?" ”

"Well-" Liu Dehua glanced at Chen Lin who was there next to him, and said with a smile: "To be honest, I asked the same question at the beginning, and our big boss Mr. Chen Lin replied like this: 'I have never lacked confidence, and besides, if I lose money, it's not a big deal, all I have left now is money, I'm really not interested in movies with tens of millions of investments, if I want to make a blockbuster like Hollywood, I don't feel comfortable without spending billions." ’”

"Really, this is his exact words, since the big boss doesn't care about money, I have nothing to say, so I'll go crazy with him."

"Fuck-" A reporter couldn't help but burst into foul language: "I kind of understand what the concept of the richest man in the mainland is, and I don't pay attention to the co-authoring of 10 billion at all?" ”

"Obey, bow and worship."

The reporters smacked their tongues for a while, looking at the courage of others, this hand, either they don't make movies, and they will smash 1 billion yuan in one shot.

"Andy, don't be appetizing, I can't help but be curious, what was your first magic blockbuster? The title of the film should always be revealed. At this time, Zeng Zhiwei couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Brother Zhiwei, I don't want to be full of you, but the big boss spoke, it is strictly forbidden to leak important information, including the title, sorry for your patience, it will naturally let everyone know in March."

"Okay, friends, the contemptible people have set up a banquet in the hotel in front, please enjoy the light and move over, and the press conference will end here." Chen Lin did not allow everyone to ask any more questions, so Jean announced that the press conference was over.

Seeing this, the reporters knew that they couldn't get more news, so they had to give up with regret and move to the hotel.

Chen Lin invited Zou Lao and the two directors to the hotel together.

After the banquet, Chen Lin and Yu Yu left Hong Kong and flew to the United States that night, this time the destination of the two was the White House in the United States. (To be continued......)
