Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Before this, Lin Daoqiu was actually not a person who liked to kill everyone. He would leave some way for others to escape.

However, Pan Disheng's previous actions had completely angered Lin Daoqiu.

In addition, Lin Daoqiu does not want to waste time anymore, he wants to unify the film market in Hong Kong as soon as possible.

Therefore, Baocheng Cinema Line became a roadblock in front of Lin Daoqiu.

Moreover, it also gathered a large number of directors and stars that Lin Daoqiu disliked but admired very much.

When this power comes together, it is really something that cannot be underestimated.

In early March, Lin Daoqiu held a special meeting in the conference room of New Oriental Company.

The number of people attending this meeting can be said to be the largest in history.

The four people from New Art City, Wen Jun and the others, as well as the directors and stars recruited by Shaw Brothers, totaled more than twenty people.

Regarding Lin Daoqiu's call, everyone smelled something unusual.

Recalling that Lin Daoqiu said before that he would defeat Baocheng Cinema within two years, I am afraid that the theme of today's meeting should be related to that matter.

At this time, the door of the conference room was suddenly opened, and Fang Jinsheng was seen walking in from the outside.

When they saw Fang Jinsheng, everyone thought Lin Daoqiu had arrived and were about to stand up to greet him.

But just listen to what Fang Jinsheng said.

"Everyone is here. Mr. Lin is already waiting for you in the screening room. Please come with me."

Lin Daoqiu actually arrived a long time ago, but he did not come over. Instead, he went to the screening room first.

Everyone at the scene didn't understand why, but they quickly got up and walked towards the screening room together.

New Oriental's screening room has been renovated and replaced with a batch of the latest movie playback equipment imported from Hollywood.

Lin Daoqiu was sitting in the middle seat at this time, talking quietly with Dexierla.

At this time, everyone in the conference room had already walked in from outside.

"Everyone, please sit down. I want to show you something today."

Lin Daoqiu didn't explain, but just asked everyone to sit down first.

After everyone arrived, the lights slowly dimmed.

Although everyone knew that what Lin Daoqiu wanted them to watch should be a movie, no one could guess what kind of movie it was.

As for Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui, they have been with Lin Daoqiu since he arrived in Xiangjiang, and they know much more than others.

As soon as they saw Dykesela also appearing in the screening room, they suddenly had a shocking idea.

"Has the filming of that movie already been completed?"

Wen Juan did not speak, but turned to look at Zheng Danrui.

Shocked expressions appeared in the eyes of the two people almost at the same time.

But the movie hadn't started yet, so they weren't sure yet, so they could only sit back and wait.

When the screen slowly brightened, everyone's eyes were focused on it.

Neon, Tokyo Bay, a lone ship sailing on it. It was windy and rainy at night. They had to get back to the dock before the typhoon came.

After a conversation, everyone in the boat heard a terrifying sound almost at the same time.

It was like the roar of a dragon, the roar of a tiger, or the cry of some kind of animal. In short, no one could tell what it was.

At this time, everyone in the cabin stood up at the same time, with a look of horror on their faces.

At this time, the hull suddenly began to shake violently, and everyone in the cabin was frightened to death. Everyone hugged the things next to them to try to stabilize their bodies.

However, after shaking for a while, the amplitude suddenly began to weaken.

"God, my wife and son are still waiting for me to come home. Please forgive me."

By this time, the timid ones were already crying.

But the strange thing is that after the roar just now, everything seemed to have calmed down.

At this moment, the camera suddenly panned to the sea.

Because of the violent storm, it was impossible to see the surroundings clearly at sea.

The captain and pilot in the cockpit were about to speed up and leave this hellish place, because they also heard the roar just now, and they heard it more clearly than the people in the cabin.

But at this moment, they suddenly and slowly raised their heads, and then looked ahead with dull eyes.

The next second, a shocking wave suddenly struck and overturned the hull of the ship.

When the boat was overturned and then disappeared in the vast sea, everything returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

This scene made everyone at the scene couldn't help but open their eyes wide, because they had never seen such a realistic movie before.

It's not that they can't film such a plot, but the things in it are as if they are real and people can't tell them apart at all.

"It's indeed "Godzilla"..."

Seeing this, Wen Jun was finally sure that this movie was "Godzilla" that Lin Daoqiu had spent several years filming and spent more than 100 million US dollars on.

Originally, Wenjun thought that there wouldn't be anything extraordinary about this movie.

After all, he has watched so many movies since he was a child, and he doesn't think any movie at this stage can shock him.

But the appearance of "Godzilla" shocked Wen Jun to the point of being speechless.

And Wen Jun was not the only one at the scene who had such thoughts.

"Godzilla" has not actually been filmed yet, but it has reached more than 80% of the production progress.

The reason why Lin Daoqiu wants to show them this small part today is to let them know the future development trend of movies, which is to move in the direction of special effects movies.

"This movie is called "Godzilla." I have been filming it for several years and invested more than 100 million US dollars. It will be released worldwide this year."

Lin Daoqiu walked onto the stage and started giving lectures to the people present.

Everyone had not yet recovered from the previous shock, and now Lin Daoqiu told them even more shocking news.

Spending more than $100 million to make a movie is simply crazy.

You must know that the total box office revenue of Hong Kong movies in a year is less than 100 million US dollars.

The total box office revenue of Hong Kong movies in the previous life in 1983 was only HK$283 million.

Lin Daoqiu actually spent 1 billion Hong Kong dollars to make a movie, which really made them don't know what to say.

If it were them, they would have used so much money to enjoy themselves, so how could they use it to make movies.

And even if it were to be filmed, the investment of at most 10 to 20 million would be huge. The production cost of hundreds of millions would not even be considered, because no one would dare to take such a big risk.

"The reason why I want you to watch these today is because I want you to know the future development trend of movies. Special effects movies will be the main force in the movie market in the future, not only in Hollywood, but also in Southeast Asia.
