Chapter 87 Coming up with ideas
After Xiang Huaqiang left, Su Cheng couldn't help but sigh.
Wen Jun came up with this script a little early. In his impression, the leading actor in this film was Andy Lau, who had not yet gone to the TVB training class. This time it was replaced by Tony Leung Ka Fai. And Ng Meng Tat was chosen just to ensure the box office.
In addition, there is a female star in this film that Su Cheng cannot ignore, and that is Li Lizhen, who is well-known in later generations. If she were not so famous, Su Chengdu would actually want to sign her to Tengyue Entertainment. After all, this
The female acting skills are good.
Unfortunately, her unrestrained personality prevented Su Cheng from taking risks. By the way, he did her a favor and introduced her to Xiang Huaqiang, who wanted to develop and expand the company.
At this time, Li Lizhen has already started shooting commercials, so it is not difficult to find. I hope she can have a good development in Xiang Huaqiang's company!
…
Hollywood.
In a private room of a restaurant, Johnnie To, Sammo Hung, Wang Jing and others were sitting together.
When the atmosphere in the court was good, Du Qifeng said to Wang Jing: "Axiang, how is your communication with that Robert? Can you meet the boss's expectations?"
"That should work!"
Hearing this, Du Qifeng was stunned and said solemnly: "Axiang, you are a veteran in the company, and you are also a minister. No matter what, this drama must follow the boss's settings. To be honest, once it is completed,
Maybe you are also a famous international director here."
"Huh?" After hearing this, Wang Jing paused and smiled bitterly: "But I'm really not sure."
Sammo Hung on one side patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this? Let's discuss the filming together and we can always get it right."
"this……"
Before he could refuse, Johnnie To said: "That's it!"
Then he said: "Axiang, you are limited by Hong Kong comedy films. If you really don't feel anything about this film, besides letting us refer to it, you can directly delegate the power to Robert. As long as you grasp the general direction
Don’t change it and let it play out. Just think of yourself as the producer.”
"Ah! How is this possible?"
"Absolutely!"
Johnnie To said: "Of course, I don't ask you to do nothing. When Robert is filming, you should observe and learn from it. After all, our director in Hong Kong has different filming modes and thinking from others. Take the essence, improve yourself, and make progress together.
, how good is it?”
"Let me think about it again." After a long silence, Wang Jing asked doubtfully: "Aren't you also preparing the crew? It doesn't look like you are in a hurry?"
Sammo Hung smiled and said: "Of course I'm anxious, but what's the use? At least we have to wait until Ah Fa's training is almost complete. He is currently practicing equestrian, and we can only shoot the location and communicate with the venue first. Wait until he is about to arrive.
Once it’s completed, it won’t be too late to officially start filming.”
Having said this, Sammo Hung continued: "Besides, during this period, Ah Feng should also be happy! A future international director?"
"Haha..." immediately caused everyone to burst into laughter.
As of now, the box office of "The Legend of Dragon and Tiger" directed by Johnnie To has exceeded 20 million U.S. dollars and over 100 million Hong Kong dollars. Is it okay if I don't make a fuss?
Johnnie To's cheeks turned red instantly, and he waved his hand and said: "This is not my fault, it is all the boss's good script and storyboarding. In addition, it is also the whole crew and Ah Fa who performed well."
Mentioning this, Sammo Hung even said with emotion: "The script written by the boss is really good. Especially the "True Lies" we are going to shoot, the setting is so unconstrained!"
"Then it will be up to you." Johnnie To said with a smile. After all, in this movie, Sammo Hung is the assistant director and action director!
"I have everything!" He had been preparing for months and was full of confidence.
At this time, Huang Yuetai, who came over to work as a photographer, said: "I heard from Boss Su that he plans to screen all the films previously produced by Tengyue in Hollywood. Do you think that will be successful?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone present was lost in thought. After all, Tengyue Entertainment currently produces the most comedy films, which is not like "Dragon Tiger"!
I don’t know how much time passed, but Wang Jing still said with a smile: "I think the boss’s intention is not to achieve high box office, but to lay a good foundation for our Hong Kong artists to gain a foothold in Hollywood. After all, with impressions and works, the future will
To be smooth, isn’t it?”
"That's right. Boss Su is so righteous!"
This move is not simple! This is to allow Xiangjiang artists to conquer Hollywood, rather than work in Hollywood. The difference is huge! Not to mention, before this, they also heard that Boss Na Su spent 10 to purchase the theater chain.
100 million Hong Kong dollars. Of course, such a big deal cannot be a trivial matter!
A discerning person can understand it at a glance.
Compared with Jiahe's "wild talk", I'm afraid Tengyue Entertainment is really "doing practical things"!
…
Eric Tsang changed his name to "Xiao Zhi", and the self-written and directed movie "The Funny Duo" was released. It was also premiered jointly by Jiahe and Tengyue Cinemas.
Not to mention, talented people can stand up even if they suffer setbacks.
The premiere box office was not very high, only 360,000 Hong Kong dollars. But by the second day, the total box office jumped to 1.02 million Hong Kong dollars. Neither Su Cheng nor Zou Wenhuai expected that this "up and down" would be too big.
Then, on the third day, the single-day box office was HK$710,000. On the fourth day, it was HK$760,000. On the fifth day, it was HK$680,000. On the sixth day, it was HK$660,000. On the seventh day, it was HK$670,000.
In just one week, it has accumulated a box office of 4.5 million Hong Kong dollars. The attendance rate is more than 70%. It can be seen that if there are no major problems, the box office will definitely exceed 10 million Hong Kong dollars!
Immediately, after Xinyi City, Jiahe also stood up.
Since then, only Shaw Brothers has become a dragster.
When Zou Wenhuai called Su Cheng to thank him, the latter joked: "Mr. Zou, this person is not a peaceful person. He prefers to tease female artists. If he suddenly becomes famous, it is better to suppress it. Otherwise, no matter it is Mr. He
, Aaron, and even others will be laughed at. I don’t want to see news about Mr. Zou being ridiculed in newspapers!”
"Thank you, Mr. Su, for reminding me, I, Mr. Zou, am not that old and dim-sighted yet." Zou Wenhuai said with a hint of anger.
Su Cheng smiled slightly and said, "I hope so!"
After hanging up the phone, he shook his head. For people like Zeng Zhiwei, it is not easy to change them. Without money, power, and voice, everything is easy to say. But if you have it, will you become like him again?
Who could have expected it to be like that?
However, this is not something Su Cheng should worry about.
Whether it is the influence brought by "Dragon Tiger Storm" or the series of questions raised by "The Love of the Earth", they are all waiting for his determination!
