Rebirth of Xiangjiang Hidden Behind the Scenes

Chapter 101 Watching a Movie

February 4th, New Year’s Eve.

Just like last year, after the "New Year's Eve dinner", everyone in the Su residence went to the cinema except for a few "elderly people" who were unwilling to move.

This can also be regarded as a "custom characteristic" of the "Su family".

I didn’t go to see the two movies "Piecing the Corner" and "The Frog Prince" produced by Tengyue Entertainment. Instead, I went to the Golden Princess Cinema to watch the movie "Dianzhi" jointly produced by Da Rong Film Company and Binbin Film Company.

"Bing Bing".

The director of this film is Zhang Guoming, who previously shot promotional videos for TVB and Tengyue TV. It is considered his first work in the film industry.

Since the producer is Binbin Film Company, the film naturally still prefers the police and gangster series. It tells the story of the male protagonist who was not admitted to the police station due to eye disease. Due to his unbalanced mind, he went around killing people to vent his anger.

At first glance, the starting situation of the character played by Xu Guanying in "Modern Bodyguard" produced by Tengyue Entertainment is somewhat similar. However, in the end, this film is moving towards a "regular gangster film" rather than a "comedy"

.

The reason why I came to watch this drama is that, first of all, it features Ho Ka Kui, the golden supporting actor who plays the "evil guy" that Su Cheng values ​​​​more. Also, this is a co-production with some famous film companies, so I can't help but pay attention to it!

Tai Wing Film Company is only famous for its boss Deng Guangrong. What Su Cheng cares about is his courage. The film "Days of Wild" starring Leslie Cheung, Maggie Cheung and others directed by Wong Kar-wai later cost 40 million Hong Kong dollars to shoot!

Less than 20 million Hong Kong dollars. If there is no issuance in other regions of Southeast Asia, it will be a huge loss.

Currently, apart from Zou Wenhuai, he is the most impactful and ambitious person.

As for his "special status" in Xiangjiang, no one dares to provoke him. However, this person is a loyal person and will not easily anger others. It is much better than Xin Ngee Ann and others.

Another Binbin Film Company, in the past two years, has produced films that have achieved much greater success than Shaw Brothers, and can compete with the previous Golden Harvest. In the same way, the two companies have a lot of grievances.

As a result, Jiahe no longer releases any works of Binbin Film Company. As a result, Tengyue Cinema Line gave up on it, allowing Golden Princess Cinema Line to make money wildly.

Speaking of this company, we have to mention their boss Ye Zhiming, who is also the brother of the later gorgeous sister Ye Yuqing. He is a very powerful person who also loves "adventures". In the film industry, he has invested in very few movies.

There are those who do not make money. However, he did not intend to do this, which led to the gradual decline of Binbin Film Company.

You know, in addition to Simon Yam who they had recruited from Tengyue before, in Su Cheng's memory, around 1980 or 1981, Leslie Cheung, Yu Yungang, Chen Xinjian and others all joined this company, which shows how powerful it is.

Except for the beginning of the movie, it is quite interesting. The rest of the movie is just like a running story. If you think about it for a moment, you will know the ending.

After walking out of the cinema, Su Cheng asked the driver to send Xiao Amin and his friends back, then took Liu Qing and headed to the restaurant that Sammo Hung had booked. It was a rare occasion to get together with everyone from the Hong family. And the purpose of this trip was

It is to appease Jackie Chan and want him to shoot a few movies for Tengyue Entertainment. As for "Cannonball Speed", he is only a supporting role anyway, so he is not in a hurry at the moment.

…

Hongsheng Restaurant, private room on the second floor.

"Hello, boss!" When Su Cheng arrived, everyone present stood up to say hello.

"Everyone, please sit down!"

After saying this, Su Cheng looked at Jackie Chan and said gently: "Aaron, how are you? I asked Brother Sanmao to invite you. I wonder if you can set aside some time for our Tengyue Entertainment in the first half of the year."

"Of course it's no problem!" Jackie Chan said excitedly. After saying that, he hesitated and said, "However, I still have to tell Mr. Zou about this matter."

Su Cheng shook his head and said with a smile: "Before meeting you, I asked Mr. Zou for his permission, and he agreed. You can be placed with us for one year. However, we are required to let you participate in at least three movies.

, the number one male, or the number two male."

After a pause, he continued: "If it's the lead male lead, it will be a Hong Kong film. And if it's the second lead actor, it will most likely be a Hollywood film. However, you can rest assured. The filming in Hollywood will be directed by Brother Sanmao."

Su Cheng had to do something to win over Jackie Chan. On this matter, he had discussed it several times with Sammo Hung, Wong Jing, and Johnnie To, and he had to be cast in several movies, even if Yuen Biao was involved.

, the results will be very unsatisfactory. There is no way. Finally, we reached an agreement with Zou Wenhuai. Jiahe can invest 30%.

Jackie Chan's obstacle is not Zou Wenhuai, but his godfather He Guanchang. However, with Zou Wenhuai's control in this matter, he will definitely get it right. He Guanchang also understands that participating in the movies produced by Tengyue Entertainment, regardless of

Both the popularity and the box office will be high. As long as it’s for Jackie Chan’s good, he can’t stop it!

As for the movies that Su Cheng wants Jackie Chan to shoot, he has currently decided on three movies: "Dragon Heart", "Red Zone" and "Rush Hour".

Among them, Su Cheng had obtained "Dragon Heart" and "Red Zone" from the system early, and had perfected the scripts and handed them over to Sammo Hung. As for the film "Rush Hour", it was completed after returning to Hong Kong.

Previously, acquired from James Cameron.

"Thank you, Boss Su!" Jackie Chan was overjoyed to be able to participate in a movie produced by Tengyue Entertainment, be the leading actor, and even participate in a Hollywood blockbuster. Even if he is not the absolute leading role, Jackie Chan is overjoyed. After all, the previous movie "Plan A" has already cost him

The sweet spot is here. Although the box office of that film was not high in North America, it jumped to the top five of the year in island countries, Bay Islands, Hong Kong, and even other regions in Southeast Asia. It even ranked first in the year. Before that, it was

It’s something I can’t even imagine!

Jackie Chan is also an international movie star, even though his popularity is still very low.

That’s enough to be proud of!

After all, how many Hong Kong and local stars can compare with him? It would be Chow Yun-fat from Tengyue Entertainment! After "Back to the Future" is released, maybe Jackie Chan won't think so. I'm afraid Leslie Cheung and Sylvia Yeh will also appear in the movie.

His international reputation soared.

Smiling, Su Cheng turned to Sammo Hung and said: "Brother Sanmao, after you finish filming "True Lies", you will take the lead in directing Aaron's films. As for "Wealth Train", the director will

Let Yuan Kui come. Of course, your role cannot be less."

"Got it, boss!" Sammo Hung didn't hesitate at all.

On the other hand, Yuan Kui said happily: "Thank you, boss!"

After all, they all know the script of "Wealth Train". Once it is done well, the box office may reach 20 million Hong Kong dollars. There are only a few films currently released in Hong Kong!

If he succeeds, won't Yuan Biao soar into the sky?

"That's what you deserve!" With a smile, Su Cheng stopped talking about official matters and began to have a cheerful meal with them. After all, today was New Year's Eve, so we couldn't let the fun down.
