213 Uncle Long and Hong Fatzi make movies

Chu Xiangqian will expose Wallace and Charles, and secretly want to make a movie, so he naturally has his own plans.

The market is so big, and cultivating Ah San's habit of watching amorous movies is the most important thing to consider now.

looked at Charles and Blair and said, "Gentlemen, the market is so big, there are so many film companies, whether you can make money depends on your vision and screenwriting ability."

If you want to join, I don't care.

And to be honest, I'd love to see you join the industry.

One is that in the future, if this kind of movie is shown locally, we don't have to worry about being banned.

Second, Ah San and Southeast Asia, as well as island countries and South Korea, will not have a small demand for films.

It is better to cultivate the market by my family first, and it is better to cultivate their habit of watching this kind of movie first, and even we can cooperate.

When the market is bigger, the more money can be made. The box office will also get higher and higher.

In the end, as long as the quality of the movie is good enough, the bigger the cake will be. ”

Blair, Charles, and Rice Fish were all stunned by what he said.

But if you think about it carefully, Chu Xiangqian is really not wrong.

Since we are not competitors for the time being, let's cooperate.

The two ghosts immediately laughed.

Thumbs up to Chu Qianqian, "Chu, your business insights are even more powerful than we imagined. It seems that it is indeed a wise choice to work with you. ”

Chu Xiangqian pouted in his heart, this method will be understood by any businessman in the future.

And there are so many movies in my mind, which have been tested by the market, and there is a high probability of being a big seller, and I am not afraid of anyone competing with me at all.

Of course, some movies can be box office hits, and they can't do without the blessing of special opportunities or opportunities.

But the fact that the movie can be a big hit shows that the quality of the movie is good.

In this era, it shouldn't be much of a problem to make a small profit or protect the capital.

And if Chu Xiangqian remembers correctly, a director said that in the sixties, 7 or 8 out of 10 movies could make money.

There was even a time when only five movies were shot in a year, but the box office of each one exceeded 800,000.

After passing through the hands of Shaw Brothers, it is common to sell it to Southeast Asia and earn back four or five times the cost.

——

Chu Xiangqian nodded at the white rice fish, the old guy was busy clapping his hands, and soon the two protagonists of this movie, wearing beautiful kimonos, clogs, and a small handbag in their hands, walked in with small steps.

bowed to Blair and Charles, and obediently took the initiative to stand beside the two.

The two ghosts were aroused by the movie of these two island women just now.

Seeing Chu Xiangqian and Bai Fanyu like this, the mood was so happy.

Charles looked at his watch and said with a smile, "Chu, it's not too early, how about we sign a purchase agreement for this movie tomorrow?" ”

Chu Xiangqian nodded indifferently and said, "Then I wish you all a good time." ”

Sending away the two impatient ghosts, Chu Xiangqian also walked out of the screening hall with Bai Fanyu.

As he walked, he said, "Uncle, you have to put away the movie master, so as not to be stolen."

It's okay to say the loss, but it's troublesome if you can't explain it to the ghosts. ”

Bai Fanyu hurriedly patted his chest and promised, and even said that if anyone dared to make a ghost in this matter, he would send his whole family to swim in the sea.

Chu Xiangqian didn't doubt this at all, and after thinking about it, he reminded again, "If you find film dealers from island countries and South Korea, remember to tell them that it only costs 2,000 Hong Kong dollars to copy film on our side."

If it sells well, we can earn 50,000 or 60,000 Hong Kong dollars for 100 copies.

In this way, the cost is earned, and with the authorization to sell the film, the film can earn two or three hundred thousand casually.

Four or five hundred thousand is not difficult to be lucky.

Once the company's reputation is established, when there are new movies in the future, the studios themselves will come to the door.

When the time comes, it will not be difficult to sell five or six good films a year, and it will not be difficult to make a net profit of one or two million. ”

The rice fish is very happy, which is much easier than his other business.

"Achu, don't worry, Uncle does what he says, when you start making your own movie, my people can be used by you. If someone messes with it, I'll take care of it. ”

Chu Xiangqian was relieved at this time, and he also had an idea of what to shoot in the first part.

First of all, it must be a kung fu movie, and the second scene can't be too many, and there is no need for big scenes.

And from Uncle Long's movie, Chu Xiangqian's first thought was the snake fist.

Judging from the market of the 60s, which was full of costume martial arts films, this movie must have to take a lot of risks.

But Chu Xiangqian knew that Uncle Long's ancient costume was not outstanding, and he could even be said to be ugly.

He signed an 8-year contract with Luo Wei that year, starred in 10 movies, and lost money in all of them.

So much so that as soon as the filmmaker heard that it was Uncle Long who played it, he immediately didn't want it.

It wasn't until Wu Siyuan borrowed Uncle Long from Luo Wei for 60,000 Hong Kong dollars for three months, first slapping the serpentine trick, and then slapping the drunken fist, and the department was a big seller.

It was even sold abroad, with the former box office of more than $6 million and the latter $15 million.

Of course, this box office has been accumulated over several years, and it may not be acceptable to foreign countries in the 60s.

But the cost of the serpentine trick and the drunken fist is not high, Chu Xiangqian carefully calculated in his heart, at most ten or two hundred thousand.

And as the president of his martial arts association, there is no shortage of dragon and tiger martial artists with a foundation to perform and act as group performers, even those martial arts masters, for the sake of money and promotion, maybe they can be invited over.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiangqian thought about simply taking Guo Zhenhua to see Hong Zhennan and learn the snake moves in Hong Quan in his martial arts hall.

By the way, try to see if there is a suitable one among Hong Zhennan's apprentices, and choose them as supporting roles and tricks.

If it really doesn't work, then through Hong Zhennan's mouth, call the apprentices from other gyms over and choose a few.

Chu Xiangqian didn't have the kung fu to talk to the rice fish now, "Uncle, let's do this today, I still have something to find Master Hong Zhen Nanhong." ”

When Bai Fanyu heard this, he pulled Chu Xiangqian and insisted on going to join in the fun.

This old thing is almost semi-retired now, and the affairs of the gang have long been handed over to the henchmen.

In addition to collecting money, eating, drinking, and having fun, there is really nothing for him to take care of personally.

I called Guo Zhenhua first and asked him to go to Hong Zhennan's martial arts hall to meet.

Bai Fanyu also explained a few words to the white paper umbrella beside him, and simply got into Chu Qianqian's car, and let the little brother follow all the way to Hong Zhennan's house.

As soon as he got out of the car, he was recognized by several of Hong Zhennan's apprentices.

They all ran out excitedly, saluted Chu Qianqian who got out of the car, and shouted "Master Chu".

Chu Xiangqian nodded with a smile, and said to the white rice fish who got out of the car, "Hurry up and shout Boss Bai, maybe you can earn some pocket money." ”

Bai Fanyu glared at Chu Qianqian angrily, but he took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket without slowness.

I wanted to give 10 yuan, but after thinking about it, while giving Chu Xiangqian a son, I could also befriend Hong Zhennan.

Simply give a 100 bill to one person.

This is equivalent to a month's salary in the market managed by Hong Zhennan. Le's Hong Zhennan's three apprentices all smiled crookedly.

hurriedly thanked Chu Xiangqian and Bai Fanyu.

Chu Xiangqian smiled and waved his hand, and in several shops next door and opposite, he sold gifts of dozens of yuan, and brought a gift of rice fish that he also bought to the door.

The three young people before had also informed Hong Zhennan a long time ago.

As soon as he walked out of the last store, he saw Hong Zhennan hurriedly walking out of the door and arching his hand to Chu Xiangqian.

Chu Xiangqian smiled, handed over the gift to a few disciples he knew, and arched his hand to Hong Zhennan, "Master Hong, I haven't seen you for many days, how are you doing?" ”

Hong Zhennan smiled and waved his hand, "No, now even Aki is in charge of teaching boxing, I'm just sitting on the side and moving my mouth." ”

Chu Qianqian was stunned for a moment, looked at Hong Zhennan carefully, and saw that his complexion was a little bad, and he had lost a lot of weight.

sighed in his heart, but said on his lips, "Master Hong passed me Hong Fist, I will be fine in the future, and I will also help the Aki Sect teachers a few hands." ”

Hong Zhennan and his apprentices were overjoyed, with Chu Xiangqian's words, if someone kicks the hall in the future, then they have to pass Chu Xiangqian's level first.

And with his fame, no gang or dwarf mule on or outside Hong Kong Island dares to come here to make trouble.

Hong Zhennan and Bai Fanyu were polite, took Chu Xiangqian's hand and entered the martial arts hall, and invited Chu Xiangqian to sit in the right middle hall.

Then ask the white rice fish to sit on the upper right hand, and then drink tea and catch up.

After chatting for half an hour, I saw a little apprentice walking in with Guo Zhenhua in a suit.

Hong Zhennan, Aki and others also heard Chu Xiangqian say just now that they were going to make a movie.

After a polite conversation with Guo Zhenhua, Hong Zhennan said to Aki, "Aki, you go and play with this little brother to see how his basic skills are?" ”

Chu Xiangqian hurriedly interjected, "Master Hong, it's not me who will raise the morale of others and destroy my own prestige. Although Guo Zhenhua's learning is miscellaneous, his fists and feet and skills are rarely flexible.

I know a little bit about Aki's kung fu, so it's no problem for him to teach boxing, but he has less experience in actual combat.

Why don't you let Guo Zhenhua practice by himself, okay? ”

Hong Zhennan's face turned dark, but he was not angry with Chu Qianqian, he knew how well his apprentices worked.

The mind of learning boxing is firm, but in the end, he needs to support himself and even make money to supplement his family.

It's not a pure scholarly disciple.

glanced at Aki, and was about to listen to Chu Xiangqian, but Aki was a little unconvinced.

Of course, he didn't dare to refute Chu Xiangqian.

The fact that Lame Hao was killed and that the word Yi was scattered in a short period of time had already spread all over Hong Kong Island at this time.

While admiring Chu Xiangqian more and more, his fear of him also deepened.

"Master, isn't your nephew from your hometown coming over, let him try this Mr. Guo's kung fu."

Hong Zhennan slapped his forehead and said to Chu Xiangqian with a smile, "Master Chu, I have a cousin who learned authentic Hong Quan from my cousin and cousin.

If you still have a shortage of manpower, why don't you see how good he is? ”

Chu Xiangqian originally came to find someone to make a movie, and even Aki and others were willing to ask for it, so he naturally didn't mind seeing Hong Zhennan's nephew.

After a while, a big fat man who was seven points similar to Hong Zhennan walked in with Aki.

Chu looked forward and knew that this kid was almost a copy of Hong Zhennan when he was young.

Secretly said, this kid shouldn't be the seed that Hong Zhennan left in his hometown when he was young, right?

But thinking about it, I don't think it should be, concubines are allowed these years, and Hong Zhennan attaches so much importance to his only son who is five or six years old.

In other words, Hong Zhennan is an old man.

If he really had a son in his hometown, he would have taken his son from his hometown after giving birth to six or seven daughters in a row.

The fat man said to Hong Zhennan a little shy and afraid, "Uncle, you called me?" ”

Hong Zhennan nodded with a smile, pointed to Chu Xiangqian and introduced Bai Rice Fish.

"Sanbao, this is my uncle's New Year's friend, and he is also recognized as the No. 1 kung fu master on Hong Kong Island. The other one is even more remarkable, relying on his own pair of fists and brains, he has created a great career on Hong Kong Island, you call Mr. Bai is. ”

Hong Sanbao hurriedly shouted at Chu Xiangqian and Bai Fanyu.

Chu Xiangqian didn't underestimate anyone, and got up to salute back.

As for the white rice fish, he will definitely not stand up.

One is that the seniority is already big, and the other is that if it weren't for Chu Xiangqian's face, Hong Zhennan would be just a small player in the market in his eyes, relying on a pair of fists.

Then Hong Zhennan didn't care about Guo Zhenhua.

His nephew did get the true inheritance of Hong Fist, if he could get an errand under Chu Qianqian, not only would he have a chance to get ahead, but he would also be able to take care of his cousin, that is, Hong Zhennan's youngest son, in the future.

By the way, these apprentices under his command can also follow their nephews in the future, take over their own mantle, and become the head of these apprentices.

"Three Treasures, Master Chu is a real kung fu master, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a generation of grandmasters. Take out some real skills and let Master Chu see it, if I can teach you one and a half moves, it will be enough for you to use for a lifetime. ”

Chu Xiangqian smiled and shook his head, in terms of real fighting ability, he really didn't lose to anyone.

But when it comes to moves, it's not necessarily better than those masters who have practiced for decades.

Hung Sanbao just came to Hong Kong Island, and he was curious about everything here, but the more curious he was, the more uneasy he became about the unfamiliar environment.

Naturally, the more you will listen to your cousin.

Arching his hand to Hong Zhennan, and then saluting to Chu, he put on a posture, and looked at it with one move and one style, letting people know that he was walking steadily and his bottom plate was solid.

Just after watching it for a while, Chu Xiangqian also saw that this fat man, nicknamed Teapot, didn't have much actual combat experience.

Nodding at Hong Zhennan, he got up and shouted to the teapot, "Master Hong taught me Hong Boxing, and I will also teach you how to be beaten and beaten now." ”

Hong Zhennan was overjoyed, although he didn't learn all the Hong boxing he learned, he was proficient in several items plus talent, hard work and years of actual combat, which made him famous.

can be compared to Chu Xiangqian, that is, people are more angry than people.

Chu Xiangqian is willing to teach his nephew, needless to say, it must be because of his love for passing on his art.

Unexpectedly, the teapot waved his hand, "Master Chu, my fists are heavy, and I missed and injured people because of playing with people in my hometown, so I had to come to Hong Kong Island to join my uncle." ”

"Bastard", Hong Zhennan was angry to death, but Chu Xiangqian said indifferently, "If you can touch my upper body with your hand, I will give you a job with a monthly salary of 300." ”

After listening to the dark music, Bai Rice Fish looked at the teapot with a happy face, and secretly said that your kid is in trouble.

Hong Zhennan secretly said that Hong Sanbao was a stupid boy.
