"What's the name of the company?" Zhang Aijia was satisfied with the share agreement and asked about the name of the film company

"Don't ask me!" I'm not interested in naming names, so it's up to Sister Liang to decide.

Don't look at Lei Weidong with the title of a great talent, but Lei Weidong hates to use his brain to choose a name the most, he is just a copyist, and he is a big parallel import.

"I see, let's call it the Bigao Film Company you just mentioned! Taller than everything else is a symbol of what our film company can reach to the highest heights. Liang Shuyi thought about it, and it was better to go to the name that Zhang Aijia just mentioned.

"Bigao Films, yes, I agreed! As long as the company name doesn't have any fruit names, I'm fine! Zhang Aijia clapped his hands and agreed, "Now that the company name is available and the funds are available, let's register the company tomorrow!" But it's better to decide on the company's framework now. ”

"Because since we want to start a business, we should formalize our business from the beginning, and be inspired to make our business bigger and stronger, not to mention what it must be, at least to make a name for itself in the Hong Kong film industry, as the so-called soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier."

"Sister Zhang, I don't have time to pay attention to the company's operation, I think the specific framework will be decided by Sister Zhang!" Lei Weidong felt that it was better to be a hands-off shopkeeper, after all, where was his ability.

"Okay, I think the daily operation of the company will be handed over to Sister Liang, since Sister Liang can go to Jiayi TV Station as the general manager to manage a small film company, it is too easy!" Zhang Aijia did not shirk and directly began to divide labor.

Liang Shuyi nodded and said: "You can rest assured that since I can manage the TV station, I can manage the film company well." ”

"However, we also need to add office staff related to finance, administration, etc., considering our current situation, we can implement a policy of streamlining the administration, we don't need many people, but all functional departments must be built."

Liang Shuyi continued, because she is responsible for business management, so it is natural to think of the personnel of these functional departments first.

"Well, I also need to recruit people here, actors and directors can be recruited when filming, but the logistics personnel for filming the film must be recruited in advance, especially the cinematographer, lighting engineer, prop designer, sound engineer, etc., which all need specialized talents."

"Sister Aijia, you can go to other film companies to poach people! , how to say that you have been in this industry for many years, know a lot of people, see if that person is capable and give more money, just dig it up! Lei Weidong said with a smile.

"I'm talking about digging people later! Let's match the financial staff first! Lei Shao, although you don't just ask about the company's affairs, but you still need to supervise the financial part, at least send a special financial person! Liang Shuyi said.

"Yes!" Regarding Liang Shuyi's request to send a financial person willing to enter Bigao Film Company, Lei Weidong of course agreed, so it can be said that Bigao's company's financial integrity is in his own hands, even if he doesn't ask the company, there will be no phenomenon that the company's power is lost.

"Love home! You go to the agency tomorrow to have a look, and choose a suitable office address for the company in a high-end office building, don't even have a registered address at that time! Liang Shuyi commanded.

"Do you need to go to such trouble! I see that Xiaomi has a lot of spare rooms, just choose a few suitable rooms to use! Zhang Aijia said.

"Sister Aijia is right, the company is all together, and the management is also convenient, and the company will move out after it grows and grows!" Lei Weidong also agreed with Zhang Aijia's words.

"That's fine!" Seeing that Lei Weidong also agreed, Liang Shuyi did not continue to insist, after all, the company had just been established, and it was a little bit to be able to save a little.

"Lei Shao, you are a great talent, this is your own film company, how about it! Contribute a few scripts! Zhang Aijia suddenly looked at Lei Weidong and smiled.

Looking at Zhang Aijia's expression, Lei Weidong sighed and said that he was doing a copy again!

But I have long decided to be a copyist for the rest of my life, and it is not a big deal to copy more and copy less, and there is nothing that cannot be beaten in advance of the more classic movies that will appear this year.

As for what script to come up with, it's very simple, although Lei Weidong doesn't know much about the Hong Kong movie Lei Weidong during this time period, he has seen several classics of Brother Cheng Long.

In Lei Weidong's memory, the most classic movies in Hong Kong in 78 and 79 are Cheng Long's martial arts films "Serpentine Tricks", "Drunken Fist" and "Laughing Boxing Tricks" and "Senior Brother Out of the Horse", which can be said to be these four movies, which established Cheng Long's status in the Chinese film industry and is his famous work, especially "Senior Brother Out of the Horse" is the first Hong Kong film with more than 10 million yuan.

"Yes! Since Sister Ai said so, I can't say it if I don't contribute to the company! I just have a few scripts here, I will give them to you in a few days, I just need Sister Zhang to find someone to be the protagonist of these movies, these movies will definitely be an instant hit, I believe that through these movies my company will have a place in Hong Kong.

"Who are you looking for to play! Speak it up and listen to it! "Hearing that as long as you find someone to play the leading role, the movie can be popular, Zhang Aijia is very curious about this person, is there such an actor in Hong Kong?

"I don't know if Sister Aijia has heard of a martial arts actor named Cheng Long? I heard that he was originally a dragon and tiger martial artist, and his nose was a little big, but now he seems to be an actor under Luo Wei! ”

"I've heard of it, and it is said that I have made a lot of movies in recent years, but they are not very popular! Is it appropriate to use him as the main character? As soon as Zhang Aijia heard Lei Weidong talk about the big nose, he remembered the big-nosed actor under Luo Wei.

It is said that although this actor is not very good-looking, he is said to be very capable of playing, and he is also very desperate in filming.

However, there are too many actors who can fight hard in Hong Kong, so Zhang Aijia is not very optimistic about Cheng Long.

Besides, as an actress, Zhang Aijia naturally doesn't like martial arts dramas very much, and she doesn't like to fight and kill, because in those films, actresses are basically vases. In contrast, Zhang Aijia still prefers to act in literary films.

"The reason why Cheng Long is not popular is because Luo Wei has not found a script that suits him! And I have a few scripts here that can be said to be completely tailor-made for Cheng Long, except for Cheng Long in Hong Kong, it is estimated that no one can act well!

Through these scripts, Cheng Long can be praised as the number one male star in Southeast Asia! If you're lucky, it's entirely possible for the company to make tens of millions of dollars just from these four movies. ”

"Is it so exaggerated, a few movies can earn tens of millions!" Zhang Aijia looked incredulous.

"However, Lei Shao, if the company makes money! In the future, I will listen to my arrangement and make some movies I want to make! Zhang Aijia said that he didn't believe it in the front, and he began to make demands later.

"Yes, Sister Zhang! I'm only sure of these four scripts this year and next! You and Sister Liang can decide on the other scripts! I don't interfere! Just like Sister Liang said! In the past two years, the company has mainly developed contacts, and I don't care if I make money or not! It doesn't matter if you lose all your money. ”

For Zhang Aijia's request, Lei Weidong directly agreed, just like Lei Weidong said, Bigao Company is just a pedal for Lei Weidong, mainly for his own fame in the entertainment industry and networking.

As for making money, Lei Weidong hasn't thought about it yet.

After all, there are many opportunities to make a lot of money in the film industry in the future, and the key now is to pull people up, and those directors who want to move the New Wave movement can bring in a few of the best.

When it comes to the golden age of Hong Kong cinema, we have to talk about the New Wave movement, which was a movement that emerged in the late seventies by directors who came back from Hollywood and behind the scenes.

These people include Xu Laowei, Hui Anhua, Zhang Guoming, Tam Ka-ming, Yan Hao, Yu Yunkang, etc., and they have made many personal films based on their enthusiasm for films, as well as the unique creativity and social sense of young people, opening a new page for Hong Kong films.

The first to set off a new wave were three works in 1979: "Crazy Robbery" (directed by Xu Anhua), "Butterfly Transformation" (directed by Xu Ke), and "Pointing Soldiers" (directed by Zhang Guoming).

Later, these young directors, who either studied film abroad or came from television stations, continued to shoot stylized films one after another, including Fang Yuping's "Father and Son" (1981), "Half of the People" (1982), Xu Ke's "The First Type of Danger" (1980), Tam Jiaming's "Youth on Fire" (1982) and dozens of other works, all of which can express the feelings and feelings of these directors about the social climate at that time.

Although these new directors are all called "New Wave directors", in fact, each of their works is very personal and does not fall into the traditional model of Hong Kong cinema.

Xu Anhua's works exude a deep humanism and a high degree of femininity; Xu Ke had a nervous tension; Fang Yuping's style is simple and realistic;

Yan Hao wanders between youthful violence and indifferent subtlety, Tam Jiaming follows the middle-class aesthetics, Zhang Guoming is good at making police films, etc., all of these characteristics experience the "authorship" aesthetics of New Wave films.

The "New Wave" marked a break between Hong Kong cinema and the previous generation of Chinese-based Cantonese films.

Cantonese films in the 50s and 60s were often burdened with heavy national baggage and failed to break through and innovate; The "New Wave" films, on the other hand, have a strong urban flavor and a strong local sensibility. This has a lot to do with the fact that the directors grew up in Hong Kong and received a Western education.

But no matter how nice it sounds, most of the works of these directors are better than sitting, and they are basically money-losers.

Let's just say that these movies are suitable for film critics or a person to enjoy the aftertaste of the videotape at home, suitable for winning awards at film festivals, and as for going to the cinema, everyone still watches commercial films of Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao, Wang Jing and others.
