Chapter 253 The King of Comedy Comes Strongly(1/3)
Chapter 253 The King of Comedy Arrives Strongly
Time came to early November, and the Hong Kong film industry was already dominated by God of Gamblers. It took from August to November to finish a movie called God of Gamblers with a routine that Wang Jing was very familiar with?
This can only be said that if Wang Zuxian had not skipped the schedule, Feijing would have been able to wrap up the work in more than a month at most.
When this movie first came out, it caused a movie-watching frenzy similar to that of "A Better Tomorrow". People all over the streets were not only imitating the God of Gamblers' dress, big back hair, and chocolate, but it also began to take the world by storm.
Many gamblers who board the New World Ferry and go to the Haojiang Casino will dress themselves up like God of Gamblers Gao Jin before departure. They all have big backs and oily heads, and they look super energetic.
Zou Wenhuai's stimulating hair wax was sold in large quantities, and Zou Sheng was so smiling that he couldn't even close his mouth from ear to ear.
In just one week, God of Gamblers has grossed 21 million at the box office on Hong Kong Island, which makes it worthy of over 40 million.
Of course, Wang Zuxian also used this movie to become popular again, but at this stage, the feeling brought by the popularity of the movie is really mediocre. Five Lucky Lai hotpot chains have been very popular since the beginning.
Sister Xian opened a hotpot restaurant, which created a huge trend of celebrities coming to eat. With more celebrity diners, it will naturally attract ordinary star-chasing citizens to come to eat.
This has suppressed the popularity of established hot pot restaurants such as Youguangda since its opening.
After twelve o'clock at night, two tall young men, almost 1.9 meters tall, walked into Good Luck Lai in Tsim Sha Tsui. Under the warm and polite reception of the waiter, they began to order food.
After ordering a table of beef rolls, shrimp sliders, various vegetables and other dishes, the older of the two young men said, "It feels very good. The service model is comparable to that of Wanjia Supermarket. I will have good luck in the future." Open up all over East and Southeast Asia like Wanjia did?"
Although I didn't suffer any major losses, I did need to be hospitalized for bandaging and treatment.
For a moment, he missed the study materials on the hard drive of those T's before time travel. If it weren't for those, he wouldn't have been able to open a small vest factory to produce various clothing for his own use.
"But after we watched it, we felt that God of Gamblers is really not suitable for theaters. From now on, it will be on video at most."
Which young man can withstand such temptation and excitement?
Xiaoxian, she went to the hospital at around three o'clock last night. After all, she was the eldest and second brother who loved her like a princess since she was a child.
After hearing this, Director Zhao became more interested and said, "Please come in."
These most intuitive changes really left Brother Wang and Brother Wang speechless.
How much did it cost Zhou Xingxing and others to invest? Without counting the remuneration, was it 5 million? Just skipping the lineup of Veyron. Putting aside the remuneration, 5 million Hong Kong dollars were not spent, let alone the various investments when the filming started. Business owners have already given Xingzi a lot of advertising sponsorships in response to his appeal.
Li Lichi said excitedly, "Axing, if our Xinghui goes public, you will soon become the chairman of a listed group in your 20s with a market value of several billion Hong Kong dollars. The class has changed, and you will be one of the role models for wealthy families. "
This is really the beginning of a price breakthrough. In fact, the vegetable and fruit merchants in Wanjia are also following the trend and raising prices.
Xing Zai walked out while drinking soup. Although he only wore a pair of big pants, Director Wang was not considered an outsider. When he arrived in the living room, Fei Jing excitedly bowed his hands and said, "Good morning, Mr. Xing."
If you open a vest factory to produce other clothing, of course you have to rely on plagiarism.
As soon as Zhao Donghuai got up, he was bewildered when he received a report from Azhen that Xiaoxian's two brothers were hospitalized. He acted bravely and relied on his tallness and strength. They were both men's basketball players about 1.9 meters tall. The two of them challenged nine gangsters.
Although he doesn't want to admit it, even after Shaolin Football became popular all over the world, he still insisted on the persona of being a Kung Fu superstar, but he is not a fool. As long as he plays the leading role, so many viewers and movie fans will have stomachaches and stop laughing. Can't come down.
What an exaggerated and outrageous profit margin is this? Really, you can't make such a profit even if you rob a bank. Many banks don't store much cash at all.
If it weren't for Shaolin Football, Tang Bohu's Dian Qiuxiang, family happy events, etc., the copyrights would all be in Zhao's or Xinyi City... Xinghui would not have no hope of hitting the tens of billions scale.
Zhou Xingxing nodded, "Director Wang, you are right."
When they opened a decoration company under the leadership of Brother Qiu, they didn't have to go directly to work. They just took orders from Zhao and Chinese Real Estate, which resulted in a nearly four-digit employee team.
Xuanfa has been on the line for nearly a few days.
That's it for one part, what about the sequel?
The truant Veyron costs 25 million a day?? The exchange rate is 30 million Hong Kong dollars?
Qiu Shuzhen's family also has seven brothers and sisters. Director Zhao rarely sees them on a daily basis. He only makes phone calls during the Chinese New Year, or meets and greets each other and gives out red envelopes or something.
But being kicked off the roster overnight and slandering them as police undercover agents or something like that is a bit too outrageous.
He doesn’t have the design inspiration either.
“I stayed up two nights without sleep to come up with this idea!”
The total box office of Hong Kong's Haowan is still 13 million Hong Kong dollars. In the Mainland, 24 hours a day, plus it is a Sunday holiday, the attendance soared, and the box office dropped by more than 42 million yuan in one day.
"Hey, boss, look over there, something seems to be going on?"
Don’t think it’s an exaggeration. As long as the total box office of the Dragon EA Southeast Asia exceeds one billion Hong Kong dollars, and the video tape market continues to be sold for several years, it can also have a data scale comparable to the box office. This is...
Whoever uses it can use it. Even if this kind of raw material industry only occupies Wan Province, it can bring out a wave of small wealthy families and become the kings of Wan Province's seasonings.
"This is more than a flower basket and a fruit basket can handle. By the way, call your brothers and sisters too, and let's meet and get along with each other."
Xingzi hurriedly avoided, "Tiao, Director Wang, you are making fun of me like this, I can't bear it."
It is not unusual for a powerful film and television giant to ask for 60% or even close to 70% of the box office share. Overlords like Disney often ask for higher shares.
The younger man looked around and saw that even after 12 o'clock, there were still many diners dining. He suddenly said, "My little sister's family business may really become a giant in the catering industry in the future. I I heard that the market value of large chain listed restaurant groups is also very scary."
Well, if you cut half of it off, Xinghui will pocket about 500 million.
Zhao Donghuai smiled and said, "I won't disappoint you. This is Xing Zai's brand new masterpiece Play Back to School. I have just watched the finished film. The comedy effect is very strong. The theme is also about the police catching thieves and solving crimes and meritorious deeds!"
His comedies are very convincing, and most importantly, they are convincing at the box office.
This is the Ninth-Rank Sesame Official. The original track is that the TV series Bao Qingtian swept across East and Southeast Asia in 1993. Riding on the popularity, Wang Jing came up with the Ninth-Rank Sesame Official, and the screenwriter and director were all himself.
So after Good Luck Lai opened, while Wan was still choosing a site for renovations, Xiaoxian asked his two brothers to come to Hong Kong to see Luck Luck, and then talked about the sesame paste, garlic, chili sauce and other ingredients factories over there. , can be handed over to them.
Zhao Donghuai, who was drinking tea, almost squirted again. What kind of messy, gangster-level Beard Yong? Yes, Azhi is already eight years old.
A group of powerful people were ecstatic. Zhou Xingxing is now one of the hottest stars in the entertainment industry.
It doesn't matter what qualifications or official position you have. Parliamentarians and senior officials outside the sports circle are also very polite and enthusiastic when you meet them.
"It makes me feel super cute. When I grow up, as long as I don't grow crooked, I may have a red face."
Someone asked in surprise, "Sheng Zhao, what is the new blockbuster film that Zhao's Pictures is preparing to release now? This blockbuster keeps pace with the development of the times, and the total box office is estimated to be scary. Although God of Gamblers is also showing in Haowan, Hong Kong, it is a hit fire."
Of course, all the various after-get off work and holiday benefits, holidays, etc. of Wanjia Group are gone.
After all, blockbusters ranging from Jurassic Park to Shaolin Football only need to be screened for a month or two to earn a box office figure of 100 to 200 million yuan.
This is the group of powerful people who started working together with him in the winter of 1984 to sell car windshields, such as Big Stone and so on.
The people who belong to the wife circle are not the rich, but working-class people... But this is the era when the islanders want to use money to buy their father's country, and the working-class people are also very wealthy.
Xing Zai, Li Lichi and others were set up on September 16th, and it was already November 9th. The female teacher Xiao Yingying in the crew would not delay the schedule like Xiaoxian. Naturally, the filming was completed and the production was completed.
He doesn't have to partner with Fei Jing. Even if he doesn't want to make a sequel as soon as possible and destroy the signature of "True School", he can also make other movies with Li Lichi and Lao Chen.
Xingzi immediately lost his temper, scratched his head and said, "Is the script perfect? Who do you want to invite?"
Of course he can act in costume dramas. Tang Bohu's Qiuxiang was very popular. He just didn't expect that his style of painting could be associated with the upright official in ancient times, Bao Qingtian.
However, you can't play sports for a lifetime, and sports students also need to eat. Lao Wang's family, whether his parents or his two brothers, have always treated Xiaoxian as a little princess since childhood.
"How big of a business it is. Just follow Wanjia's on-site service. This is a highlight in hot pot restaurants."
Jurassic Park was released last year, and they also started to develop large theaters last year. They are basically one- or two-story buildings divided into six or eight halls.
Of course, there are more than 1,500 counties in the mainland. This is the nature of the private theater chains that Big Stones are currently building. From a commercial perspective, some counties that are too remote and have inconvenient transportation will be abandoned.
Brother Wang drank a glass of beer again and said, "Let's go and take a look later. I'm still feeling angry."
The big rocks all smiled and raised their glasses, "Zhao Sheng, you don't care about the small money at the box office, but we are all poor, shouldn't we mention the ticket price? It won't go up much, just one yuan per movie. Tickets? Everyone can afford it, and prices will continue to break through the barrier for several years at this stage."
Xingzi sat up suddenly, "I'll go, why didn't you wake me up earlier?"
Xingzi was so excited that he felt that the blood all over his body was heating up, and his face was frighteningly red and hot.
Zhao Donghuai laughed, "Okay, five to five is fair."
But suddenly there are more than 9,000 big screens, and the ticket price has also increased to one yuan? This is really...
In the end, he slapped the table and said, "Drink. Get drunk and go to sleep. Get up tomorrow and come up with new ideas. In order to become the chairman of a listed group, you have to fight hard. We are all still young!"
He is often embarrassed to face a certain type of relatives...
Even if those cheap brothers-in-law or sisters-in-law are incompetent and ask professional managers to help, everything will be stable. How many companies in Hong Kong dare not to give face to Sister Zhen, a senior secretary who has many years of experience?
It wasn't until noon that Xiaoxian came back to ATV from the hospital. He sighed with a speechless expression, "This is too outrageous. Fighting between people for the sake of an archipelago..."
After having another drink, Xingzai laughed, "There are more than 1,500 new era theater chains. This explosion is unimaginable. Can Truant Dragon break 500 million in the mainland?"
I copied a high-paying support service, so it’s a beggar’s version.
…………
But Zhao Donghuai was too lazy to covet the little money.
How about starting a new big movie series?
Xingzi opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Fei Jing continued, "It's a good choice for your original team to make a sequel, but I still suggest you try a different genre. After all, the first one was so successful. If the second part is launched in a hurry, it will easily be released on the street, which will ruin the series."
Yesterday was Saturday, and many people didn't have time to watch it.
But facing a super tycoon like Zhao Donghuai, they... don't know what to do and are a little afraid to meet him.
Xiaoxian was even more helpless, "Those nine gangsters are kneeling in the hospital and haven't left yet. Even their parents and children have come out to beg for mercy... I feel like it's just an ordinary fight? My eldest brother and second brother were there too when they were in school. Fight with people."
The purchase price is rising, and the retail price will definitely change as well.
There is also no shortage of beauties in the sports circle, and even outside the sports circle, who take the initiative to chase them, and there are too many who chase them backwards... After all, with Zhao Donghuai's domineering power in Hong Kong, it is also very majestic for you to become a relative.
To be continued...
