Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

"Ka...I announce that "God of Gamblers" is officially finished."

There is less than a month left before the Spring Festival, and the film "God of Gamblers" directed by Wang Jing has finally been successfully completed at this time.

Over the past few months, it can be said that Wang Jing and Wen Jun have worked really hard for the God of Gamblers drama and have not hesitated in the slightest. They have used all their abilities.

Although they can breathe a sigh of relief because God of Gamblers successfully completed the project, what they will face next is a more severe test.

If the box office score of 60 million is not reached, Lin Daoqiu will be sent to a treasure island.

Moreover, Lin Daoqiu had announced this half-jokingly in front of reporters before, and he didn't know how "God of Gamblers" would be able to get off the stage if it didn't sell 60 million yuan.

Wang Jing looked at Chow Yun-fat, Andy Lau and others half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"It's been a hard time for me, but you must come to the premiere when the time comes."

Chow Yun-fat and Andy Lau were also present at the previous launch conference, and they naturally heard what Lin Daoqiu said.

But until now, they all feel that Lin Daoqiu and Wang Jing were just joking in front of the media reporters, and they will not be sent to the treasure island just because the box office of God of Gamblers did not reach 60 million.

"Don't worry, you two, I will definitely be there when the time comes."

Chow Yun-fat is the protagonist of this drama, so he must be there to support it. There is no reason for him to be absent.

Andy Lau, who intends to develop in the film industry, will naturally not be absent. Although he is not the protagonist, he also hopes to attend more film-related activities.

After securing Chow Yun-fat and Andy Lau, "God of Gamblers" has officially entered post-production.

Since this film has no special effects, the post-production time is not very long.

But even so, Wang Jing and Wen Jun still put aside everything. The two of them stayed in the post-production company from the first day in order to make the best cut of "God of Gamblers".

On the other hand, "The Legend of Wesley" produced by Golden Harvest has entered the post-production stage as early as a month ago.

Because this film has a lot of special effects, the post-production time will be a bit long.

As a movie that Golden Harvest is preparing to make a comeback in the Hong Kong film industry, "The Legend of Wesley", it can be said that Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang have placed great expectations on this movie.

However, because there are so many strong films in this year's Spring Festival, both Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang are not sure whether this special effects blockbuster will achieve good results.

Chow Yun-fat's "God of Gamblers", Xu Guanwen's "A Happy Family", and Hui Guanjie's "The Legend of Wesley". Among these three movies, "A Happy Family" is the one that Golden Harvest is most afraid of.

On the contrary, they were not too worried about Wong Jing's "God of Gamblers". After all, Hong Kong's gambling films were not selling well during this period.

Moreover, the director is Wang Jing and the screenwriter Wen Jun. These two people have not made any achievements before.

Even Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang had heard some news about "God of Gamblers" before.

It is said that if this drama does not sell for 60 million yuan, then Wang Jing and Wen Jun will be sent to the treasure island by Lin Daoqiu.

Although Lin Daoqiu made Wang Jing and Wen Jun personally promise this matter in front of the media reporters, almost most people regarded it as a joke and no one took it seriously.

But judging from the news that Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang have received, if "God of Gamblers" does not reach a box office of 60 million, Lin Daoqiu will really drive them to the treasure island.

Although they don't know what happened here, they saw that it was almost impossible for the movie "God of Gamblers" to win a box office of 60 million in Hong Kong. It was absolutely impossible.

Instead of focusing on "God of Gamblers", Lin Daoqiu might as well spend his time on "Happy Events at Home".

The combination of Xu Guanwen, Leslie Cheung and Stephen Chow, and the script was provided to them by Lin Daoqiu. Together, these factors are definitely a strong rival for Golden Harvest.

"Our opponent this time is not "God of Gamblers" but "Happy Events at Home". It is said that the filming of that drama went very smoothly and will be completed in a few days."

In Jiahe Zou Wenhuai's office, he chatted with He Guanchang about the arrangements for this year's Spring Festival stalls.

"If it weren't for the fact that "The Legend of Wesley" is a special effects blockbuster, I don't think it would be sure that it would be able to beat Awen's "Happy Events at Home."

It can be said that Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang know Zou Wenhuai very well. After all, they have worked together for more than ten years, and both parties know everything about him.

However, because there was little development in Jiahe, Xu Guanwen left Jiahe and joined New Oriental, and then Jiahe almost went bankrupt.

If it weren't for Lin Daoqiu's efforts to stay, I'm afraid the company Jiahe would have disappeared without a trace.

"The final investment for this movie reached 65 million. If it can get 40 million at the box office in Hong Kong and the sales go well, I think there should be no problem in getting the capital back."

Without Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao, these three powerful heroes, Golden Harvest does not dare to raise its box office expectations too high.

In the past, it would not have been impossible for them to make a movie that would earn 40 million yuan at the box office during the Spring Festival, but now it is a bit difficult for Jiahe.

"Don't worry, I've gone to the post-production company to watch it several times before. "The Legend of Wesley" was shot very well, and the special effects are also very exciting. The audience will definitely like it."

He Guanchang had already visited Teddy Robin and others in the post-production company, and also enjoyed the drama "The Legend of Wesley" by the way.

Looking at this drama from the perspective of his many years as a film actor, He Guanchang believes that the special effects of "The Legend of Wesley" will definitely refresh the audience in Hong Kong.

Although it is impossible to reach the super level of "Godzilla" and "1992", as a local special effects film produced in Hong Kong, He Guanchang feels that "The Legend of Wesley" can still get a passing grade.

"It's a pity that we don't have a big star now, otherwise we can push him to Hollywood. It is said that Aaron is very prosperous in Hollywood now..."

When talking about Jackie Chan, Zou Wenhuai felt very sad. When he was lured from Luo Wei to Golden Harvest, they originally planned to make him the second Bruce Lee.

But I didn't expect that Jackie Chan relied on Lin Daoqiu and his own efforts, and now he no longer needs to be Bruce Lee.

Now he has a famous English name Ja in Hollywood.

Lin Daoqiu helped them make up for what they failed to do at the beginning. This made Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang both happy and helpless. After all, this was their unfinished business.
