The influence of "A Chinese Ghost Story" has far more than a dozen follow-up films. Given its good box office in Hong Kong, filmmakers from all over Asia are preparing to prepare for the prime time for "A Chinese Ghost Story".
In another time and space, it is precisely because of the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story" that Joey Wong jumped into the top actress in Japan and South Korea.
Even in the 21st century beauty rankings, Koreans ranked Joey Wong in the top few, and the Japanese even gave her the title of Asia's No. 1 Beautiful Leg.
The tickets for "A Chinese Ghost Story" in Japan and South Korea are extremely exciting.
At the same time, the third round of screenings of "Shushan" has also ended successfully in some parts of East Asia and South America.
Although the box office in South America was unsatisfactory, the third round of screenings across East Asia was extremely gratifying, and it earned millions of dollars back to DreamWorks to accumulate box office.
As a result, the global screening of "Shushan" for more than half a year has officially ended, with a total box office of US$101.38 million, a discount of HK$790 million.
Depending on different situations in various places, DreamWorks can get about 300 million shares, which does not include additional revenue such as "Shushan" videotapes, soundtracks, product peripherals, etc.
Many film companies' bosses are jealous of DreamWorks' super high returns, and many directors are envious of Tsui Hark for his luck, because after the global screening of "Shushan", Kang Jianfei announced that he would pay extra bonuses to the entire crew, and added 2 million red envelopes to director Tsui Hark.
Of course, there are people who are not worth it for Tsui Hark...
Just after the Lantern Festival, a visitor came to Tsui Hark's house.
Wong Baiming drank the coffee freshly ground by Shi Nansheng. He first relived the old love he had when he worked with Tsui Hark, and then said with emotion: Old Xu Ah, you did a beautiful job this time.Just one piece of "Shushan" earned more than 200 million yuan in net profit for DreamWorks.However, your movie studio can only be divided into Hong Kong box office, and there are also shares of DreamWorks, so the money you get seems to be a little less.
Tsui Hark smiled and said: There are a lot of things, the studio's share, additional share, my director's pay and red envelopes, which add up to more than 7 million yuan.
Huang Baiming sowed the dissuasion: More than 7 million yuan is really small compared to nearly 800 million yuan.
Shi Nansheng interrupted: Enough, which director in Hong Kong has paid more than 1 million yuan?
Tsui Hark replied bluntly: If you came to persuade me to go back to Xinyi City, then there is no need to say anything more.
Huang Baiming smiled and said: It’s not that you are invited to go back to Xinyi City, but that someone wants to invest in opening a company with you.
Oh, who wants to find me to cooperate?Tsui Hark asked.
Huang Baiming said: There are many people who want to cooperate with you, such as Princess Jin’s Boss Lei, Taiwan’s Wang Yingxiang, and our New Art City.
Shi Nansheng asked: What do you mean is Boss Lei, Wang Yingxiang, Xinyi City and Lao Xu cooperated to open a company?
Huang Baiming nodded and said: Yes, everyone can discuss the distribution of shares.Being a boss by yourself is different from working for others. If you are the boss by yourself in this movie "Shushan", you will earn more than ten 7 million yuan.
Tsui Hark was not confused by the temptation of making a lot of money. He smiled and said: If it were my own boss, the movie "Shushan" would not have been made.
Huang Baiming continued to tempt: But now it is different. With the help of Princess Jin, Xinyi City and Taiwan Dragon, you will not only have the money to make movies like "Shushan", but you will also have no worries about local and overseas distribution.
Although Tsui Hark was not very eloquent, his mind was very fast and he didn't take long to figure out what was going on.
Huang Baiming is here on behalf of Princess Jin, Xinyi City and Taiwan Longxi Film, and Wang Yingxiang is the boss of Longxi Film and is also one of the shareholders of Xinyi City Taiwan Branch.
Longxiáng Film was its partner at the beginning of the establishment of Xinyi City, and joined hands with Princess Jin to establish a joint distribution network of Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Of course, at that time, the main releases were DreamWorks. After DreamWorks broke up with Princess Jin, Longxiáng Pictures expanded its purchase of New Art City.
Because it also owns the Taiwan distribution rights of Xinyi City and DreamWorks films, LongXing Film has developed extremely rapidly. In the second half of the year before yesterday, Taipei theaters were reorganized, and LongXing Film and Television and New Voice Theater established the seventh theater in Taiwan.
The expansion of the distribution network and theater scale has made LongXing Film urgently need more film sources. As a result, DreamWorks was banned by the Taiwan authorities at this time, which is like a blow to LongXing Film.
Without enough film sources, Long Xiáng could only make the holes in Taiwan films. As a result, several consecutive movies failed, making him completely useless.
Last year, Wang Yingxiang, the boss of Longxiáng Film, discovered the newly rising Debao, so he contacted Pan Disheng in private.
As a result, Long Xiáng only released a movie called Debao, and its competitor Scholars Company formed an alliance with Debao, which made Wang Yingxiang so angry that he almost traveled to Hong Kong to kill Pan Disheng.
Since last year, Taiwanese capital has entered the Hong Kong film industry in large quantities, and Wang Yingxiang and his dragon Xiáng are also unwilling to fall behind.
In the second half of last year, I invested in two Hong Kong films, but the box office was unsatisfactory. Although I made a small profit, it was still far from Wang Yingxiang's expectations.
Until the release of "Shushan", Tsui Hark entered Wang Yingxiang's vision as an internationally renowned director. Wang Yingxiang was not short of funds, distribution channels, and good actors. He only lacked famous directors when making movies.
Half an hour later, Wong Pai-ming left Tsui Hark's home.
Shi Nansheng asked: Why didn’t you agree to him?Longxiáng Pictures has strong overseas distribution capabilities and is well-funded.
Tsui Hark smiled and said: Lei Juekun is a businessman, and Wang Yingxiang is also a businessman, including Huang Baiming who just left, he has now become a movie businessman.Do you think they will give me money sincerely?
Shi Nansheng said: Because you can give them money by making movies, what's wrong with setting up a company and being a boss by yourself?
Tsui Hark asked back: Didn’t you listen to them just now?If you set up a company, in addition to me, there will be three other shareholders, namely Princess Jin, Longxi and Xinyi City.How much do you think I have to say then?They have the final say on what to shoot, how much to budget, and when to shoot.Not every movie can earn hundreds of millions of dollars in overseas box office. Even if I become the boss of the company and the four shareholders are divided, how much money can I get?They took all the big heads away, so I might as well stay in DreamWorks and the movie studio, at least the atmosphere of filming here is relatively free.Don’t forget that there are sequels in "Shushan". As long as the filming is not too bad, the money I earn from filming a sequel is similar to the money I earn from opening a company and sharing the accounts with them.
Tsui Hark didn't say anything, that is, if he left DreamWorks, the movie "Shushan" had nothing to do with him, and most of them would even break up with Kang Jianfei.
Tsui Hark is not Longxiong Film’s only choice in Hong Kong. In fact, Wang Yingxiang has registered and established a Longtai Film Company in Hong Kong. Unfortunately, both movies have average box office sales.
Xiang Huaqiang added a spoonful of candy to the milk tea, raised his eyes and asked Wang Yingxiang: Do you want to invest in Yongsheng?
Of course not, Wang Yingxiang smiled and said, "I know Yongsheng Pictures is a gang asset of Xinyi'an. Even if you agree to my investment, you may not be able to pass your elder brother's level."
Xiang Huaqiang twitched his lips and asked with a smile: Who told you that Yongsheng is a gang company?Yongsheng is my personal property and my younger brother Asheng.
Since this is not a pleasant topic, we won’t talk about it. Wang Yingxiang smiled. I hope Longtai Pictures can cooperate with Yongsheng to make films. I will invest and be responsible for its distribution in Taiwan and Nanyang.
Xiang Huaqiang asked: Then what do I need to do?
Wang Yingxiang said: You only need to pay money and people, and terminate your cooperation with Jiahe and Xinbao, and instead form an alliance with Princess Jin. The film and television resources on Xinyi City will be open forever.
It seems that your relationship with Cai Songlin, a scholar, is really not very good. Xiang Huaqiang smiled and took a sip of tea. It is okay to cooperate with you, but my relationship with Jiahe and Xinbao will not be broken. I will cooperate with whoever gives the best conditions.What's that?By the way, free competition.
I think the conditions they gave were definitely not as good as mine. Wang Yingxiang smiled and raised his teacup and said, "Then, let's make a deal!"
Happy cooperation!Xiang Huaqiang also raised the teacup.
Watching Wang Yingxiang leave the tea restaurant, Xiang Huaqiang's face showed a smug smile. He was also happy to cooperate with Longxiáng Pictures, so that he would not have to watch Jiahe's face when releasing the movie.
Compared with Scholar Pictures, LongXiáng Pictures has a stronger background in Taiwan.
When Wang Yingxiang and Xinsheng Theater established the Seventh Cinema in Taiwan, the Yiqing Operation in Taiwan was over. Anyone with a stupid mind could guess that this person had a strong official background. His Seventh Cinema in Taiwan was composed of the gang theaters that were swept away during the Yiqing Operation, including the theater controlled by the Bamboo Alliance Gang, the Sihai Gang and other gangs.
Of course, it is impossible for these gang theaters to be given to Wang Yingxiang, but he did swallow the fattest pieces of meat.
The New Year of 1986 has just passed, and the popularity of "A Chinese Ghost Story" has not faded, and the Hong Kong film industry has caused another wave.
Taiwan's Longxiáng Film Company made a high-profile entry into Hong Kong, and also invested in Yongsheng Film Company's "Demon Jade", "People's Heroes" by the director and production company and "Best Sn in Law" by Princess Jin Entertainment Company.
Zhao Yazhi wore a nightgown and brought breakfast to Kang Jianfei, but Kang Jianfei was reading the newspaper with relish.
The entertainment page of "Oriental Daily" contains reviews of "A Chinese Ghost Story" that have been released: There is no Xiaoqian after Joey Wong, and there is no female ghost after Xiaoqian!
The film reviews were very generous to "A Chinese Ghost Story" and Joey Wong, and also reported the hot selling of "A Chinese Ghost Story" videos and soundtracks. At the end, the face of its fake film reviews was finally revealed: Oriental TV Production Company will plan to shoot the TV series version of "A Chinese Ghost Story" in the near future, and will be broadcast on Feng Huáng TV and Macau TV successively.
As for the news that Taiwan’s Longxiáng Film and the filming of three movies in Hong Kong at the same time, it was squeezed into a small corner.
Kang Jianfei's eyes fell on the news over there, and he smiled and said: First, a scholar, now he is a dragon. These Taiwanese tyrants are so rich that they have no place to spend, and Hong Kong is becoming more and more lively.
In another time and space, it is precisely because of the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story" that Joey Wong jumped into the top actress in Japan and South Korea.
