DreamWorks.

It was Lin Zuhui who spent 1 million to buy a film company and renamed his film company 'Dream Works'.

That's a great name!

He didn't even think about it, so he put it on the crown.

As for the future development, he doesn't worry about it.

Making movies is not about making money, and making money doesn't make movies.

This company is well-equipped for filming, and there are still some personnel left, which saves a lot of trouble.

It's been a week since the acquisition, the company's management has been reorganized, and it's time to prepare for the film.

Sitting in his office, after a while, Pan Cheng, the general manager of DreamWorks, walked in with Wu Baige, and Lin Zuhui greeted him with a smile.

"Director Wu, this is our boss, Mr. Lin Zuhui!"

"Boss, this is director Wu Yusen!"

Yes, Lin Zuhui's first thing to shoot is "The True Colors of Heroes", the turnaround work of Wu Yusen, Chow Runhua, and Dillon, the box office champion in 1986 in the previous life, and the pioneering work of the "True Colors of Heroes" series of movies, which opened the classic film of Wu's violent aesthetics.

At this time, Wu Yusen was at a low ebb in his career, and he could invest a wave.

In 1983, John Woo filmed the movie "Heroes Without Tears", but there were accident casualties because of the use of real warheads; In addition, he hit the street in front of a few movies, and he was hidden by Golden Harvest, and in 1984, he went to Taiwan Island to develop.

If you wait until next year (1986), it will not be Lin Zuhui's turn to pick up the leak, and others will take refuge in Xinyicheng and join Xu Ke Studio.

After everyone sat down on the sofa, Lin Zuhui said: "Director Wu, our company wants to invite you to film this time, and I hope to invite you to film for a long time!" ”

Wu Yusen looked at the young Lin Zuhui, and his mood was not as good as the first time he learned that someone invited him to film, how do you think that this new young rich man is in the nature of playing tickets.

But it's better to have someone invite you than no one to invite you.

"Boss Lin, what movie are you going to make?"

"Action, and it's gunfight action!"

Wu Yusen was stunned for a moment, his only gunfight action movie "Heroes Without Tears" has not yet been released because it has been banned; This one didn't ask himself to shoot a comedy, but asked himself to shoot a gunfight action movie. Could it be that you are really a layman?

He cautiously probed: "Does Boss Lin have a script?" ”

Lin Zuhui directly took out the script of "The True Color of Heroes" and handed it to him. is just a little director, don't you dare to be greedy for your own achievements?

Although it is said to be a script, it is actually an extremely unprofessional script, Lin Zuhui just narrates the story from memory; Of course, there are a lot of classic lines.

"I've endured it for three years, just to wait for an opportunity, not to prove how great I am, but to tell others that I must get back what I lost!"

"You must never give up, persevere to the end, and you can't be looked down upon."

"I haven't been a big guy for years!"

also directly wrote out the sub-shot of Fa Ge's toothpick, saving Fa Ge from thinking about it again!

Even, the protagonist of this script has been changed to three protagonists, and who is the protagonist in the end depends on the acting skills. Originally, in history, Fa Ge was only a supporting role at the beginning of the script, and Leslie Cheung was the protagonist.

Wu Baige watched it very seriously, and the more he read it, the more he felt that this script was very good.

"This script was rewritten by someone else based on Long Gang's 1967 version of "The True Color of Heroes", and I bought out this script. I read it, and the script has a lot of advantages, but it's not very professional either. If Director Wu comes to shoot it, you can re-edit it on it! ”

He knew how to write a script, but he used memory to describe it in the vernacular.

Wu Baige nodded, he has now decided to make this drama, and no one can stop him.

Because Wu Baige's career is now sluggish, he has no worries, so the two talked directly about the remuneration.

"A contract for up to three films, although I am an outdated director, Mr. Lin's film company is only a novice, and I dare to put all my future on it!"

Lin Zuhui wants to use 1 million to sign Wu Baige's five films, naturally he doesn't want to 'cultivate' a good director with violent aesthetics, and he can't squeeze more oil and water.

"Although my film company is a novice, I have strong financial strength, as long as Director Wu has confidence in himself, our cooperation is very promising. I'll take a step back, I'll give you 3% of the profit share of the Hong Kong market for each movie, and you have to do your best to make good movies for me. ”

He seems to remember that the box office of "The True Color of Heroes" is 35 million, and if it is divided by theaters and movie theaters, and if he pays another tax, he can earn at least 10 million. This is still just Xiangjiang's profits, and if you buy out overseas, you can have at least seven or eight million profits.

An investment of more than 2 million is enough, and the profit is really violent.

Wu Yusen was silent for a moment, he was thinking, this young man is indeed worth a lot of money, if he signs a contract with five departments for him, at least he will get a basic guarantee. No one has invited him to film in Hong Kong now, and it has only been two or three years, and he may be able to turn over again.

"The contract has to stipulate that I can shoot for other film companies during the performance of the contract!"

"No! But I can negotiate that our contract is for two years! After two years, if Ling's five-part contract is not completed, you can shoot for another studio, but you still need to shoot five for us. ”

Take a step back, and everyone is satisfied.

Wu Yusen asked again: "It is difficult for independent film companies, without their own theaters, the schedule is not good, and the box office profits cannot be obtained in the first time." What can Boss Lin do about this? ”

"It doesn't matter! As far as I know, Shaw Brothers Cinemas is about to be rented out to Debao Films, and they will be short of film sources at that time; Moreover, I have a great relationship with Mr. Zou from Golden Harvest, and he will take care of me! ”

Lin Zuhui is not worried about the theater problem, he is now in a relationship with Jiahe Zou Wenhuai, and Zou Wenhuai does not dare to offend him, otherwise Jiahe's ace Cheng Long will have to suffer. Although there is a threat, Golden Harvest also has to take care of itself.

As for Zou Wenhuai's connections in Xiangjiang, whether he will send the club to trouble him, that is no longer under consideration. Since Lin Zuhui started his business, he has attached great importance to his mouthpiece, backer, security and other issues. Coupled with his strong physical fitness, it is more than enough to escape at a critical moment.

In Xiangjiang, as long as you have money, the community will not dare to trouble you, because the laws of Xiangjiang are made for the rich; Rich people can hire barristers, rich people can hire killers, and rich people can even make phone calls to the Governor's Palace.

Except for outlaws from the mainland, no one dares to get along with the rich and powerful.

Wu Yusen didn't expect Lin Zuhui to have such connections, even the relationship with Jiahe, and suddenly there was no doubt.

Then, Lin Zuhui said: "I hope you will persuade Xu Ke and let his studio assist you in completing this movie!" ”

After all, Wu Yusen is still a rookie in gunfight action movies, so Lin Zuhui is still a little worried.

"It's... Xu Ke Studio is for the service of Xinyicheng, I'm afraid it will be difficult! ”

"I don't think it's difficult, Xu Ke opened a studio just to make money, and I can pay 150,000 Hong Kong dollars."

Wu Yusen did not feel uncomfortable because of Lin Zuhui's underestimation, after all, Director Xu Ke's status is much higher than him.

And Lin Zuhui is also very confident that Xu Ke will join the team, because he also made a cameo appearance in the film of Debao Film Company this year, as long as he can make money, he and Xinyi Cheng have not signed a deed of sale.

"Okay, I'll try to help Boss Lin communicate!"

"Director Wu, you are wrong again! The film company is not my main business, and I plan to hand over the production of the entire film to you and Manager Pan, and Manager Pan will be the producer. ”

General Manager Pan Cheng is also a veteran of this industry, and it is very suitable to serve as a producer, so Lin Zuhui is not worried about being cheated by Wu Baige.

"Yes! In other aspects, does Boss Lin still have instructions? ”

"Yes, I have selected a few leading actors, Chow Runhua, Dillon, and Leslie Cheung are the leading actors in this film, although there are not many female roles, I am also looking for a candidate."

Wu Yusen hesitated for a moment and said: "Boss Lin, Zhou Runhua is now box office poison, Dillon is now banned by Shaw Brothers, and only Leslie Cheung is still a big cast." Movies without big casts are at a loss in theaters and overseas sales. ”

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "I'm a businessman!" My favorite is to tap potential stocks, but to buy high-priced stocks, as long as the acting skills are okay, what you said is not considered. ”

"Good! After all, I'm in the same situation as them, and I'm sure we'll all be able to turn around this time. ”
