The celebration banquet of "Royal Sister" touched the hearts of many Hong Kong media, and it can be said that this is the highest-grossing film at the overseas box office in recent years. It is a major event for the entire Hong Kong film industry, and it is a grand event that the Hong Kong media cannot miss.

There is even a long red carpet at the entrance of The Peninsula Hotel, which is no longer a simple celebration banquet, but a full show.

When Lei Juekun, Feng Bingzhong, Mecca and others came to the Hilton Hotel, they saw the red carpet at the gate and the reporters on both sides, and they immediately looked at each other and were speechless.

Kang Jianfei is too sāo, and a celebration banquet actually has to walk the red carpet......

As soon as Lei Juekun got out of the car, several reporters rushed up to interview him and asked, "Mr. Lei, I heard that Princess Jin is adding theaters?" ”

That's a good question, and Lei Juekun replied with a smile on his face: "Yes, now that the production of New Arts City and Oriental DreamWorks is increasing, and there are many other Dúlì films to be released, the existing theater schedule is a bit tight, so I decided to expand the scale of the theater chain." There are four new theaters that are installing seats, and they will be able to open in half a month, and the Golden Princess Cinema Line will have 22 theaters by then. ”

The reporters exclaimed in a low voice, now there are only 19 theaters in the Golden Harvest Cinema Line, and the number of Golden Princess has increased to 22, won't it become the largest cinema chain in Hong Kong.

Lei Juekun said with a smile: "In addition, I also decided to increase the screening halls of the four leading theaters of the Golden Princess, and upgrade the sound equipment of the theaters. ”

What a big deal!

Hong Kong is also Lei Juekun can do this.

Due to the rise of Oriental DreamWorks, Shaw Brothers is declining faster than in parallel space. In the case of not being able to increase the box office, blindly making a film can only make the production company and the theater chain lose money at the same time. Therefore, Shaw Brothers' production last year should have been 28 films, which was reduced to 19 films due to the influence of DreamWorks. Although Shao Yifu is rich, how dare he smash it on the theater line now, and he can only accompany him a lot.

Although Golden Harvest was pressed at the box office. But it's still developing steadily. In particular, Zou Wenhuai invested in more than a dozen Western movies in Hollywood, although there were times when he lost money and could not recover it, but he earned a lot of dollars. Even so, Golden Harvest's funds are still not abundant. Because Golden Harvest's shareholders Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang are both pure filmmakers, unlike Shao Yifu and Lei Juekun, who do real estate and open bus companies.

Looking at the surprised expressions of the reporters, Lei Juekun was full of pride. Competing with Oriental DreamWorks for the box office, the new art city he controls can't do it for the time being, but he can do it in theaters.

With the addition of four theaters in one go, Golden Princess will immediately become the largest theater chain in Hong Kong, which will greatly enhance his prestige and attract more film companies to Golden Princess to screen films.

Lei Juekun walked across the red carpet and waved and smiled at the reporters on both sides from time to time. Behind was an RV slowly driving up.

This RV was specially rented by Kang Jianfei. After the car door is opened. Hiroyuki Sanada and Keiko Matsusaka walked down holding hands, followed by Song Hye-jin and Yang Chae-ni mother and daughter.

"Hiroyuki Sanada and Keiko Matsusaka actually flew over from Rì to participate in the celebration banquet!" The reporters were shocked by the sight.

For journalists, a star combination of handsome men and beautiful women. is more attractive than Lei Juekun, the old man.

"Mr. Sanada, did you come here from Rì on purpose? A reporter who could speak rì asked.

Hiroyuki Sanada said in broken Cantonese, "Yes. I love the city of Hong Kong, so I studied Cantonese. At the same time, I am also very grateful to Mr. Kang Jianfei, who gave me the opportunity to cooperate with my Chinese counterparts. ”

Sanada's Cantonese surprise reporters, and the news that foreign celebrities learning Chinese is definitely a favorite among readers, and it helps to increase newspaper sales.

Later, people from the Kang Jiaban and the Raptors stunt team also arrived one after another, and when Pan Yingzi and Gao Zhisen appeared with Li Lizhen, Li Meifeng, Li Yanshan and Xie Ning, reporters speculated about their identities.

"Miss Pan, are these four beautiful girls all signed actors of Oriental DreamWorks?" Reporters asked.

"Happy Ghost 2" was completed last week, but because Xu Ke's "Ghost Horse Smart Star" is being screened, the film schedule is scheduled for half a month later, which is used to stagger the schedule with "Ghost Horse Smart Star".

Pan Yingzi introduced with a smile: "This Mr. Gao Zhisen is the director of "Happy Ghost 2 Happy Ghost Summer Vacation", these four little sisters are named Li Lizhen, Li Meifeng, Li Yanshan and Xie Ning, and they are the main actors of "Happy Ghost 2". ”

"Happy Ghost 2 has started filming?"

"Is the director Mr. Kang?"

"Does Hu Juncai continue to play the happy ghost?"

"When will "Happy Ghost 2" be released?"

“……”

As soon as Pan Yingzi opened her mouth, the reporters were shocked, and all kinds of questions flocked to her. Although "Happy Ghost" is the lowest box office among several movies directed by Kang Jianfei himself, this is Kang Jianfei's debut film, and it is also the first Hong Kong film with a box office of more than 10 million, and the media has always paid attention to the news of "Happy Ghost 2".

Because the filming process of "Happy Ghost 2" has been very low-key, the outside world doesn't even know that the film has started filming and is still debuting today, no wonder these reporters are so surprised.

At this moment, Hu Juncai, who was dressed in a suit, came over holding his girlfriend Huang Minyi's hand. This guy has been eating well for more than a year plus practicing martial arts, and he is tall and strong, which is similar to the appearance of bamboo poles when he first arrived in Hong Kong.

Pan Yingzi said with a smile: ""Happy Ghost 2" has been produced, and it will be released in two weeks. As for the actor, it is still Mr. Hu Juncai to play, but this time his image in the film is very powerful. ”

This "Happy Ghost Summer Vacation" has the same general plot as the original version, but the details and jokes are much more novel, and the male protagonist is not so frustrated, which is more in line with the image of Prince Charming in the girl's heart. The female teacher pursued by "Kang Xingui" in the film is played by Pan Yingzi herself.

"Miss Pan, why is "Happy Ghost 2" not directed by Mr. Kang?" The reporters asked.

Pan Yingzi explained: "Mr. Kang has other plans for a new film, and he has no time to shoot "Happy Ghost 2". ”

Compared with "Happy Ghost 2", reporters are naturally more interested in Kang Jianfei's new film. hurriedly asked, "Miss Pan, can you tell me a little bit about Mr. Kang's new film?" ”

"When Mr. Kang comes, you can ask him directly." Pan Yingzi smiled at the reporters and stepped onto the red carpet.

In the restaurant, Chen Rongmei saw Pan Yingzi coming in. Smoking a cigarette, he said to Feng Bingzhong: "This 'doll' beauty is getting more and more flavorful. ”

Feng Bingzhong laughed and said: "Lao Chen, if you are interested, go to the bubble, if this woman has no such relationship with Kang Jianfei, do you think she can sit in the position of vice president of DreamWorks Film and Television?" ”

"Alas, how did the beauties get caught by Kang Jianfei's kid?" Chen Rongmei sighed.

Feng Bingzhong smiled obscenely: "Don't fake crying poor. Didn't you get a few pretty girls who know kung fu last time? How it feels. ”

Chen Rongmei said with a smile: "Energetic, that leg and waist are absolutely superb, especially when you fly to death." Damn, it's just a matter of having fun, and now I'm reluctant to do it, I'm going to invest in them to make a kung fu movie. ”

Feng Bingzhong was surprised: "You are still playing really." ”

Chen Rongmei rubbed her teeth and said: "It's not just to coax women, now that filming is so profitable, brother, I also have a little itchy hands." There are two women who know kung fu in their hands, and then find a director and crew. Invite a few celebrities to make a makeshift film. They are all shareholders of Golden Princess Cinemas. Xu He Lei Juekun spent money to open a film company. I'm not allowed to make a movie? ”

Feng Bingzhong sighed: "I said brother, making movies is not so easy to play. You look at Shao Tycoon, a movie that others have been playing for decades. Now it's all starting to be fun. ”

Although Chen Rongmei is a playboy, her brain is still very smart. He said: "Shao Daheng is a big business, and he has trapped himself. If I were him, he directly sold the Shaw Brothers studio to TVB, and then laid off most of the employees, some of these employees entered the TV station, and some of them got out of the TV station directly. The remaining part of the people will operate according to the model of Golden Harvest or DreamWorks, and they are guaranteed to make a lot of money within a year. ”

Feng Bingzhong said with a smile: "It's easy to say, if you let a person who has become the chairman of the board of directors lose all the positions he has accumulated for decades, and then run to start over as a department manager, who will be willing?" ”

Chen Rongmei said: "That's why I said that Shao Daheng trapped himself by himself, knowing that it would be difficult to continue on the big set, but he was reluctant to throw it away." With the scale of Shaw Brothers, they don't do anything every day, and their employee expenses are at least two or three hundred thousand yuan a month. ”

Feng Bingzhong said: "If it were me, I guess I would be reluctant to throw away such a big mess and start over." Moreover, once Shaw Brothers Pictures carries out reforms, Shaw Brothers Cinemas will lose money in the short term because of the source problem. ”

"Losing money is also temporary, and if you don't change, you will wait for death," Chen Rongmei asked, "Brother Zhong, I want to open a film company, are you interested in investing?" ”

Feng Bingzhong knew that Chen Meirong was stimulated by the terrifying box office of "Royal Senior Sister", and the two film companies invested by Lei Juekun were making money, so he also wanted to open a film company to make a profit. He smiled: "It's too risky to make a movie, how can it be cost-effective to do real estate?" There is a piece of land to sell in Kwun Tong, and my money is going to be used to buy the land. ”

Chen Rongmei smiled: "Do you lack one or two million to make movies?" The two of us cooperated to open a film company, and when we talked, we had weight in the Golden Princess, and we would have to compete with Xinyicheng and DreamWorks for the schedule when we made films in the future. ”

Feng Bingzhong asked: "Have you found a good director to make a movie?" Who will write the play? ”

Chen Rongmei nodded and said: "The director found it, it was Wu Yusen who secretly helped Xinyicheng shoot "Funny Times" last year. ”

Feng Bingzhong was surprised: "That movie is very powerful, I was still thinking about how a director named Wu Shangfei suddenly appeared, and later I learned that he ran from Golden Harvest and secretly directed it under a pseudonym." ”

Chen Rongmei said with a smile: "Wu Yusen secretly helped Xinyicheng make a movie by He Guanchang, and now Jiahe is refrigerating him." I contacted Wu Yusen a few days ago, and he promised to help me make a film, and now he is writing his own drama. ”

Feng Bingzhong nodded and said: "With Wu Yusen as the director and screenwriter, it's a bit of a deal, and the company counts me as a share." ”

When the two were discussing the formation of a film company, an exclamation suddenly came from the door of the hotel - Kang Jianfei appeared with Lin Qingxia, Zhong Chuhong and Guan Zhilin.
