In the restaurant of the Six Nations Hotel.

Kang Jianfei touched a glass with Director Chen of the Film Bureau and asked, "Bureau Chen, is it really impossible to open a movie theater in the capital?" ”

"It is definitely not possible for private individuals to invest in the construction of cinemas in Beijing," said Director Chen of the Film Bureau with a serious expression, "In fact, when the Ministry of Culture discussed internally, at the beginning, Mr. Kang was only allowed to invest in cinemas in Shenzhen/Shenzhen, and Shanghai/Hai and Guangzhou/Zhou were won by our Film Bureau." ”

"That's a pity," Kang Jianfei personally poured the wine for Director Chen, and said, "But I still have to thank Director Chen, thanks to your help in this DreamWorks matter." ”

Director Chen said solemnly: "Mr. Kang is a patriotic overseas Chinese, and he returned to the mainland to support the construction of the motherland, so of course our film bureau should try our best to help." ”

Among Kang Jianfei's group of subordinates who came this time, two of them were specially given gifts to the leaders of the Film Bureau.

Of course, you can't give money blatantly, but give some goods such as brand-name perfumes, lighters, video recorders, etc. At the same time, gifts cannot be given to the leaders themselves, like Director Chen's side, his three daughters-in-law all got a set of cosmetics and home video recorders, and his grandson and granddaughter also got many small gifts.

Thirty years later, this kind of gift would look shabby even if it was given to the county magistrate's family, but in the 80s, it was particularly rare, and Hong Kong-made goods were synonymous with quality and fashion.

Halfway through the meal, Director Chen suddenly asked, "Mr. Kang, I heard that you are friends with Ye Sangongzi?" ”

Kang Jianfei naturally wouldn't let go of the opportunity to pull the tiger skin of the Ye family as a banner, nodded and smiled: "It's a good friend, I helped Zhang Luo at his residence in Hong Kong." ”

"Oh, I see," Director Chen said with a smile, "My old man was a soldier under Lao Shuai back then. ”

Director Chen said. Everyone immediately became their own people, and Kang Jianfei raised his glass again and touched a glass with him.

Today's cadres still attach great importance to their image, and Director Chen was drunk until he was five minutes drunk, so he covered the cup with his hand and did not allow him to pour wine, and only introduced the situation of the mainland film market to Kang Jianfei while eating vegetables.

"Director Xu's "Shushan", I heard from a comrade who returned to Beijing a few days ago that the movie was really good and eye-opening!" Director Chen talked for a while, and suddenly talked about "Shu Mountain".

"Shushan" was co-produced by DreamWorks in cooperation with the mainland, and the Chinese co-production company is actually a direct subsidiary of the Film Bureau. Once there is a shooting task, personnel will be transferred from all over the country, such as Zhang Yimou, who is working as a photographer in the crew of "Shushan" at this time.

Kang Jianfei nodded and said: "That drama can be filmed smoothly, thanks to the help of the Film Bureau." ”

Director Chen said with a smile: "It was Mr. Kang who gave us the opportunity to create foreign exchange, and I hope to cooperate more in the future." ”

"Definitely, definitely!" Kang Jianfei replied casually. "Shushan" can't make more money-burning movies. However, if the first part can be a hit, the second part will also be filmed in the mainland. The Chinese co-production company under the Film Bureau has made another profit.

……

With the cooperation of the Film Bureau. Kang Jianfei's goal of going north was basically achieved, and as for the specific affairs of the joint venture cinema, Kang Jianfei would then send someone over to slowly discuss and plan with the local government.

This time, Kang Jianfei stayed in Beijing for a week before finally returning to Hong Kong to continue filming "The Saint of Gambling".

Time has entered December in a blink of an eye, and a new round of Christmas box office war in Hong Kong is about to kick off. This time, DreamWorks' flagship movie is "The True Color of Heroes 2" directed by Wu Yusen.

The Golden Horse Awards in Taiwan were held as scheduled, Golden Harvest and New Arts City both gained a little, but DreamWorks' films were not even eligible for nomination.

After more than half a month of buffering, the chaos caused by Kang Jianfei's ban gradually stopped.

There are still 54 contracted artists (including singers and actors) of Oriental Entertainment Company. The so-called largest entertainment brokerage company in Hong Kong basically exists in name only. The biggest influence is a few first-line stars such as Zhou Runfa and Zhong Chuhong, no matter how famous they are, no company dares to invite them, and they can only shoot DreamWorks dramas in the next few years.

Fengxing Records also completely ended its business in Taiwan and shifted its main target market to the Nanyang region, and the losses suffered were really not small.

As for the Oriental Cinema Company, due to being characterized as a leftist cinema line by the Taiwan authorities, two or three franchised cinema companies have chosen to withdraw one after another, and now there are 21 theaters left in the scale of the Oriental Cinema Line.

At the same time, because Kang Jianfei has completely fallen to the mainland, CCTV and Phoenix TV will strengthen cooperation, and are now planning to jointly produce a program.

Compared with Kang Jianfei's simple decision, Shao Yifu is much more stable, TVB's operation has not changed, but he personally quietly donated money to the mainland.

At the same time, "Royal Police" has been scheduled for release in the mainland, and major newspapers across the country have also cooperated in promoting it.

……

Xiao Zhang used to be an ordinary worker in a cotton mill, and because of his beautiful handwriting, he was promoted by the leader to sit in the office and be responsible for some writing and painting work.

As usual, Xiao Zhang came to the office early in the morning, made a cup of tea, lit a cigarette, and picked up the newspaper and read it on Erlang's legs.

Reading newspapers is also one of Xiao Zhang's jobs, he first carefully read the "People's Daily", and found that there was nothing worth excerpting, so he picked up the provincial party newspaper and looked at it.

The organ party newspaper really has nothing to look at, and Xiao Zhang, who likes to dance and write, likes to read the supplement of "Yangcheng Evening News" the most. Open today's "Yangcheng Evening News", Xiao Zhang directly turned to the supplement and read it, and after reading for a while, he suddenly shook to the three words "Bao Qingtian".

Xiao Zhang's favorite thing to watch is "Bao Qingtian", plus he watched it three times without landing on the ground in the rebroadcast episode, and he can memorize the lines in many places.

As soon as he saw the words "Bao Qingtian" appear in the newspaper, Xiao Zhang immediately came to his senses, sat up straight and took a closer look, but saw that the title of this report was: "From Self-Made to Billionaire - The Legendary Experience of Patriotic Young Overseas Chinese Kang Jianfei"

Speaking of Kang Jianfei, the majority of readers must be very unfamiliar, but if you mention the songs he created, it is a household name. At last year's Spring Festival Gala, Hong Kong singers sang songs such as "Great China" and "Happy Meeting", and the songwriter was Kang Jianfei. At that time, due to special reasons, Mr. Kang hid his real name until recently......

Speaking of which, many readers may think that Mr. Kang Jianfei is just a songwriter, in fact, he is also one of the planners and screenwriters of "Bao Qingtian......

Kang Jianfei grew up in a poor family, lost his father and mother when he was a child, he was determined to do a career since he was a child, so he studied diligently and studied all kinds of knowledge hard. More than five years ago, Kang Jianfei sent his novel manuscript to the newspaper and embarked on a legendary life path......

On December 10, Mr. Kang Jianfei's work "Heroic Policewoman" will be screened in major cinemas across the country. The film was the box office champion of the year in Hong Kong and caused box office sensations in Japan, the United States and Europe, making it a quality film to watch. ”

Well, this is actually a promotional advertorial, and DreamWorks is sponsoring advertising money.

After Xiao Zhang finished reading the article, he suddenly admired and worshiped Kang Jianfei.

Relying on his own hands and brains, he went from a poor man who couldn't eat enough to a well-known writer, artist and company owner, and became a model of entrepreneurship and prosperity.

As for what "Heroic Policewoman" is, it must be also very good-looking, haven't you read it in the newspaper? "Brave Policewoman" has caused a sensation in Japan, Europe and the United States.

And Xiao Zhang, who likes to watch "Bao Qingtian", is also very interested in the movies shot by the planner and screenwriter of "Bao Qingtian", and wants to see if this movie is as good as "Shaolin Temple".

There are many people who have figured out ideas with Xiao Zhang, and after DreamWorks spent hundreds of thousands of yuan to advertise advertorials in newspapers around the world, "Heroic Policewoman" became a topic of discussion before it was released.

I have to say that at this time, the resistance of the mainland people to advertising is too low, and the media will believe it casually.

On December 10, "Royal Sister", which was renamed "Brave Policewoman", was finally released in major cities in China.

Xiao Zhang, who had just turned 25, walked into the cinema with his girlfriend, and after finding a seat and sitting down, he used what he saw in the newspaper as a talking point, and said to his girlfriend Xiao Wu ostentatiously: "Today's "Heroic Policewoman" is not ordinary, and the director who filmed this drama is the planner and screenwriter of "Bao Qingtian". ”

Xiao Wu is just an ordinary female worker, who took her father's position as soon as she graduated from junior high school, and she admired Xiao Zhang, who could play with the pen, and asked, "What is a planner?" ”

Xiao Zhang said proudly: "Of course, this planner is the one who makes the plan, and the one who makes the decision must first make the plan when making a TV series, anyway, he is the leader who makes the decision." ”

"Oh, I see." Xiao Wu said as if he didn't understand.

In Xiao Zhang's boasting, the movie finally began.

As soon as she appeared on the streets of Japan, Lin Qingxia took pictures everywhere with a camera, and suddenly encountered a gang with a knife to cut people, and she immediately rushed to save people.

As soon as Lin Qingxia's crisp fist and foot kung fu came out, it immediately caused an exclamation in the movie theater.

Xiao Zhang's eyes widened and he looked at the big screen, just a minute ago, he really couldn't imagine that the kung fu in "Shaolin Temple" could still be used in modern society.

Later, the scenes in the plane, assassination and explosions, speeding car chases and other scenes made countless audiences stunned. Xiao Zhang forgot about his girlfriend around him early, and he couldn't bear to blink when he looked at the big screen, for fear that he would miss the wonderful shot.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

With a violent explosion, the heroine played by Lin Qingxia finally defeated the villain, and the audience cheered and applauded in the cinema.

The credits at the end of the movie are all over, and there are still many audiences in the theater who can't bear to leave.

Xiao Zhang asked his girlfriend Xiao Wu, "Is it good-looking?" ”

Xiao Wu nodded again and again and said, "It's good-looking, it's so good-looking." ”

Xiao Zhang touched the money in his pocket, gritted his teeth and said, "It's still early, let's buy tickets and watch another show." (To be continued......)
