Chow Yun-fat's interview reached Chen Qiming for the first time.

Faced with this guy who asked him for help one second ago, and backstabbed himself the next second because he didn't help, Chen Qiming was really angry.

He picked up the phone at that time and wanted to call Fox and use his influence to pressure them to give up working with Chow Yun-fat.

It's just that Liu Ciwei stopped him.

"The dog bites you, you can't go back and bite him.

Most importantly, you are now the most influential Chinese in Hollywood.

If you really put pressure on Fox, it will confirm the news that you are suppressing other Chinese.

This will be very bad for you. ”

After listening to Liu Ciwei's words, Chen Qiming pondered for a long time and put down the phone.

Liu Ciwei's words are not unreasonable.

It is no exaggeration to say that Chen Qiming at this time is the light of the Chinese.

He was the first Chinese in Hollywood.

If he suppresses Chow Yun-fat, the impact on his image will definitely be huge.

It's not just the image.

Since making a name for himself in Hollywood, Liu Ciwei has made a plan for Chen Qiming.

The plan is to make him a leader of the Chinese in Hollywood, with him as the core, to create a group that belongs to the Chinese community.

Chen Qiming has this strength and appeal.

They are all Chinese people who are away from home.

Chen Qiming is popular and influential, and the Chinese group created with his theme can better help domestic stars gain a better foothold here.

On the other hand, as long as such a group is established, the benefits to Chen Qiming will also be huge.

It can make him have a huge influence in the country, and there will be huge benefits in terms of connections and influence.

However, although he does not plan to put pressure on Fox to suppress Chow Yun-fat.

But Chen Qiming won't just let him go.

He hates this kind of person who thinks so highly of himself that he owes him something.

On 16 November, Chen Qiming flew back to Hong Kong from the United States.

As soon as he got off the plane, he was stopped by reporters.

When asked by reporters about whether to suppress Chow Yun-fat, Chen Qiming responded for the first time.

"Whether there is suppression or not, everyone should be able to see it.

I don't bother to suppress a second-rate person, he is not a person of the same grade as me at all, and it doesn't do me much good to suppress him. ”

Wow......

Chen Qiming's remarks directly detonated the media circles of Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Chow Yun-fat is a second-rate figure.

We're not a grade!

Every sentence can be called a critical blow, which made Chow Yun-fat angry, and also made the outside world have a lot of criticism of Chen Qiming's response.

Many media people think that Chen Qiming is too crazy.

After all, Chow Yun-fat is a top superstar in Hong Kong, a person who has been on the box office list for many years.

As a result, he was attacked by Chen Qiming with the sentence that he was a second-rate figure.

This really caused dissatisfaction among some Chow Yun-fat's fans and friends.

Among them, Liao Qizhi, a famous supporting actor in Hong Kong, publicly accused Chen Qiming of disrespecting his predecessors in the media, and also said that Chen Qiming was crazy because of his popularity.

Chen Qiming did not respond to this.

He never admitted that he was a good man.

Since his debut, everyone knows that he belongs to the kind of person who can't hold sand in his eyes.

What about Chow Yun-fat.

He is indeed a senior, but his predecessor is not like this.

If he can refer to a deer as a horse, why can't he attack him openly?

It was enough to save face if he didn't use resources to directly suppress him.

The grievances between Chen Qiming and Chow Yun-fat have caused a lot of turmoil in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Many media outlets and newspapers have been involved in the discussion.

However, because the quarrel occurred between the top two people in Hong Kong and Taiwan, this made many little stars dare not join the camp of both sides although they want to gain popularity.

Not only the little stars, but even people of the level of Andy Lau and Leslie Cheung all chose to remain silent.

Like Andy Lau, he is good friends with Chen Qiming, but similarly, he also has a good relationship with Chow Yun-fat.

Therefore, when questioned by reporters, he directly chose to remain silent and not make a statement.

In private, he and Leslie Cheung both called Chen Qiming to ask for specific details.

After knowing the whole story, he didn't say a word about it.

didn't take Chow Yun-fat's matter to heart, and on the 18th, Chen Qiming appeared at the celebration party of "Fengyun 2".

"Fengyun 2" was released for a month, and with Chen Qiming's record, it sold well in Europe and the United States, and the box office of the movie was very good.

The film earned a total of HK$41 million in Hong Kong.

Because Hong Kong's box office performance is very good, the film has now been bought by Baodao, Japan and South Korea.

Plus the box office of the release in Singapore and other places, as well as VCD rights.

This film brought nearly 30 million Hong Kong dollars in profits to Qiming Film and Television.

If you add the profits of the theater chain, Chen Qiming got nearly 50 million in income from this movie.

The success of "Fengyun 2" indirectly made Qiming Film and Television jump directly and became the hottest film and television company in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The influence is directly after Jiahe and Yongsheng.

"Mr. Chen, congratulations on the box office hit!"

"Ming Tsai, the sales of new records are really hot! I heard that it broke the historical record of Europe and the United States. ”

"Ming Zai, this is my newly signed newcomer, take care of me in the future!"

Chen Qiming has a stake in the hotel at the Shangri-La Hotel, so Chen Qiming's company will choose this hotel for various activities.

In the hotel lobby, Chen Qiming is undoubtedly the protagonist.

The people around him are densely packed, all of whom are familiar to the audience and well-known agents in the industry.

Chen Qiming greeted them tirelessly with a wine glass.

"Boss, Mr. Han from China Film is here!" A staff member of Qiming Film and Television came over to report.

Hearing this, Chen Qiming immediately smiled and apologized to the people around him.

"Everyone, I'm sorry, I'm a little bit small here, you drink first, and I'll come back to greet you later!"

"Mr. Chen, please, leave us alone!"

"Please ......"

The people around him began to disperse, Chen Qiming smiled and raised his glass for a moment, and then left quickly.

The people of China Film were invited by Chen Qiming.

In the past two years, Chen Qiming's cooperation with the mainland has become closer and closer.

In many of Qiming Film and Television's films, he will give a certain share to major studios in the mainland.

Among them, China Film has the most cooperation.

"The Disaster of the Python", as well as this "Fengyun 2", all have the investment of China Film.

The two collaborations have made the relationship very good.

It also allowed the cooperation between the two sides to gradually go further.

Chen Qiming hopes to use China Film to operate Qiming Film and Television's films for release in the mainland.

China Film needs to cooperate with Chen Qiming to make films.

Especially after it was rumored in Europe and the United States that Chen Qiming and Fox had reached a big project, China Film paid more and more attention to Chen Qiming.

They hope to use Chen Qiming's connections and influence to let China Film participate in some projects in Hollywood.

"Mr. Chen, you have been so beautiful lately, I hear your news every day in the mainland!

I heard that you have reached a partnership with the American giant film and television company Twentieth Century Fox? Want to invest in one of their blockbusters? ”

As soon as he met Han Sanping, the director of the China Film Office with whom Chen Qiming had the most contact, asked Chen Qiming with a smile.

"Yes, a romance film, Fox has invested a hundred million dollars in this project, and because of the lack of funds, now let me join it.

I invested $60 million! ”

"That's a lot of money!" Han Sanping sighed, and then said:

"We have a lot of funds in our hands, next time Mr. Chen has a suitable project, please help introduce it."

"It's nature!" Chen Qiming nodded.

If he can, he still hopes to have a good relationship with China Film.

It will only be good for him.

……

The day after the celebration ended, Chen Qiming attended the premiere of Yongsheng's "King of Adventure", and shared the stage with Jet Li and Takeshi Kaneshiro to pull the box office for the movie.

This is the first time Chen Qiming has stood under the camera with Jet Li.

Therefore, the reporter was very interested in the two of them.

"Mr. Chen Qiming, as we all know, your films in the past two years have also been mainly based on action genres, and Mr. Jet Li is a model in this regard.

We wanted to know, is it possible for the two of you to work together? ”

As soon as he came up, some reporters began to ask Chen Qiming if he had a chance to cooperate with Jet Li.

It can be seen that reporters and even the audience are very much looking forward to seeing Chen Qiming and Jet Li, two of the most appealing people at the box office in China, work together.

"Probably put! If I have the opportunity, I would love to work with Jet Li. Chen Qiming responded with a smile.

"Mr. Li, there are media reports that the original film of Adventure King was burned, and the current screening version is a reshoot, will this affect the quality of the movie?"

A reporter asked about a major event about the play Adventure King.

Originally, the drama King of Adventure could have been released in advance.

The main reason why it has been delayed until now is that the rubber of the original film was burned, which caused the crew to reshoot and then drag it to the present.

"Rest assured, the quality of the remake is not inferior to the original!" Jet Li said with an oath.

However, it seems that Jet Li is very confident, but in fact, Chen Qiming sees worry in his eyes.

In this regard, Chen Qiming also understands why.

Chen Qiming is one of the investors of Adventure King.

He has seen both the original version and the remake version of the movie.

All in all, the original version is definitely better than the remake version.

After all, the reshoot version was shot in a short time, so some modern scenes were filmed, and then the unburned footage of the original film was used to make up for it.

Although the plot is rounded, the quality is more than a little worse than the original.

To tell the truth, even Chen Qiming has some regrets.

Because the special effects and quality of the original version are very good.

According to Chen Qiming's estimate, if the original film is released, the box office of this movie will ......

It's a pity that in the end, the original film was burned.

Chen Qiming attended as a guest, so in order not to steal the limelight of the protagonist.

In the following interviews, he was silent until the movie was released.

The whole film of "The Adventure King" was filmed in a cinema in the mainland, and large artificial props such as wooden oxen and horses, trains, and airplanes appeared in the film.

It is no exaggeration to say that at this time, Hong Kong's film special effects have just started, and the filmmakers are reluctant to invite the Hollywood team, and the large-scale action special effects scenes in the film shot with real shooting still look very shocking.

It's just a pity that most of the original film was burned, and only a small part of the reshoot was left with the reshoot shots, and those big scenes were unfortunately missed by the audience in the end.

In the original version of "The King of Adventure" that Chen Qiming has watched, the plot develops like this:

Adventure King (played by Jet Li) is an archaeologist with extraordinary skills and a love of adventures around the world, with a young assistant Bao Shina (the remake version is called Ah Cheng, played by Takeshi Kaneshiro).

General Long, the presidential adviser to the Xi'an Garrison Command, entrusted the Adventure King with finding the legendary prayer box and the wordless heavenly book.

It turns out that the wordless Book of Heaven can penetrate the secrets of heaven and earth, have the ability to change the world, and is related to the future and future of mankind, and the integration of the scripture box and the Book of Heaven is the key to finding the Book of Heaven.

The clue provided by General Long is that the prayer box appeared in the late Qing Dynasty, and a group of lamas from XZ wanted to take it to XZ, but they were robbed by the bandit rock gang on the way.

In the melee, someone opened the prayer box, which actually caused a fire in the sky, and the two gangs of people present were attacked by the fire, and only Duanmu Ming, the leader of the Rock Gang, disappeared with the prayer box.

Later, Duanmuming's wife received a letter from her husband, which most likely contained clues related to the prayer box, and it was now hidden in the Japanese consulate in Shanghai.

So the adventure king and cabbage infiltrated the Japanese consulate to steal the letter, and in the process of stealing the letter, he met the Japanese woman Rufeng (the remake version is called Kamiko, played by Guan Zhilin).

In fact, Rufeng is a Japanese spy Admiral Naira, who deliberately released news to attract the adventure king to steal the letter, in order to lure the adventure king to find the prayer box, and she can get the clues of the prayer box as long as she secretly follows it.

In order to deal with the adventure king, Admiral Nailiang found the extraordinary horse thief Ni Ba (the remake version is called Hong Hongxing, played by Zou Zhaolong) to help.

According to the paper used in the letter, the adventure king investigated the Righteous Daily that specializes in using this kind of paper, and it turned out that the owner of this newspaper, Uncle Jiaying (played by Luo Jiaying), was the son of Duanmu Ming, and the warp box was hidden in the newspaper.

So the adventure king and cabbage mixed into the newspaper to do chores, and cabbage fell in love with the typesetting girl Xinxin (played by Yang Caini) at first sight.

When the Adventure King learned of the whereabouts of the warp box, he informed General Long, but when General Long arrived in Shanghai by train, he was attacked by the Japanese as soon as he stepped out of the train. Admiral Nora rushed to the station with his men and tried to kidnap General Ryu.

Subsequently, the Japanese army Dazuo (played by Zhou Billy) ignored the safety of General Naira, and ordered to launch poison gas bombs to poison General Long, causing Admiral Naira to break with the Japanese from then on. The Adventure King rescued Admiral Nailiang, and the two got the prayer box from Uncle Jiaying, and decided to go to the Wordless Book of Heaven together.

It turned out that the wordless book was hidden in an underground shrine in the Jiayuguan section of the Great Wall. The Adventure King, Admiral Nailiang, Bao Shen Cai, and Xin Xin all came to Jiayuguan and entered the temple. Ni Ba rushed from behind to snatch the Book of Heaven and start a big battle with the Adventure King in the temple.

In the chaos, the warp box was opened again, and it turned out that there was a lot of radiation inside, and both Admiral Nai Liang and Ni Ba died because of the radiation. The Adventure King finally put the Heavenly Book and the prayer box in the hands of the idol in the center of the temple, thus opening the mechanism, and the hologram of Master Xuanzang appeared in front of him.

Master Xuanzang was able to predict the future, and he calculated that Bao Cai and Xin Xin would become husband and wife.

The war of aggression launched by the Japanese against China would eventually suffer a crushing defeat in 1945.

The three of them finally left with mixed feelings and started a new adventure.

Compared with the original version, the reshoot version had to revise the plot because of the lack of a lot of rubber, and the scenes of the original film were rounded up with content.

With the development of the plot in the film, the two timelines of modern Hong Kong and Shanghai of the Republic of China are interspersed back and forth, combined with development.

Overall, both versions may have their own merits.

But from Chen Qiming's point of view, he still prefers the original version.
