Chapter 197 Me too!(2/3)
…………
Du Qifeng was stunned and speechless, and then he became happy, "I have been holding it in for half a year, and I have a new idea. I plan to make a movie depicting the life of the fire brigade..."
"I'm worried that the photo won't be good, so I want to see the master to check it. Come on, let's go to Fulinmen. I'll treat you."
Historically, Sir To was addicted to gunfights between police and gangsters for many years, and his Galaxy films were all about those. Now he has been stimulated by (Wang Wenxia), and has achieved both fame and fortune in community films.
I really don’t want to make a bad club movie. I have been thinking about it for a long time. It is difficult for him to find other prototypes in Hong Kong to seek copyright for stories about heroes of the era like Wang Sheng.
It would be better to make a story that reflects the current era and the unknown heroes among ordinary people.
Firefighters, that seems to be a better subject than police officers.
This is the original version that was directed by Johnnie To in 1997. In 1997, the box office in Hong Kong was 20.73 million Hong Kong dollars, and Adu was also nominated for the best director.
Much more ruthless!
After all, by the 1997 era, Hong Kong movies were basically collapsing and were becoming Hollywood's ticket warehouses. Countless filmmakers could not afford to make a living, but one movie (100,000 Urgent) could still get more than 20 million. This was quite impressive in 1987.
I went there for the 30 million standard.
Adu originally came to see if Wang Jing was at home and asked this junior fellow student to help come up with ideas. Unexpectedly, a large group of junior fellow apprentices were all here... That's great, let's do it together.
Anyway, the stories of firefighters are all stories that take orders in times of danger and risk their lives to save others. They are unsung and true heroes among ordinary people.
He can't handle heroes of the era like Wang Wenxia, so it would be good to focus on small figures and exert his efforts.
Before a group of people left, Wang Jing came back, and then the crowd became even bigger. A Jing greeted casually, and Chen Baixiang, Li Lichi, Huang Baiming and others also came to join the party.
The (Shaolin Football) project started on May 13th and has continued until early August. It has indeed entered the end of the finalization stage. However, it is estimated that the final stage will be completed by the end of the year, just in time for the Lunar New Year and Spring Festival stalls.
The (Shaolin Football) crew that has been working together for three months is indeed full of talents.
………………
Early in the morning on the 7th.
Countless gangsters, including those in the Hong Kong police force who are on holiday, have begun to buy shoes from the fifty or sixty Wanjia supermarkets in Hong Kong.
The Guan Yu-style sneakers and cultural shirts played by Lu Shuming were sold out immediately.
In just one day, with the popular broadcast of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, various products related to Guan Yu's image were sold, including more than 100,000 pairs of shoes, and more than 200,000 T-shirts and other cultural shirts...
In just one day, Mr. Lu took a commission of more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars!
Who among the gang members and the police force doesn't seek protection from Mr. Guan? Countless elite brothers and key members have all left, but there are still a large number of ordinary men in Hong Kong Island.
You say things are expensive? No matter how expensive they are, you can get a pair of shoes worth hundreds of Hong Kong dollars. This is not tens of thousands of dollars, but a pair of shoes of several hundred Hong Kong dollars, and a cultural shirt worth one or two hundred dollars.
When the 8th came, Lu Shuming was thinking about going downstairs to have a buffet breakfast in a certain hotel. Li Jingfei, 30, directly blocked Lao Lu, "Second brother, I want to be like you."
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Teacher Li said this more than once, but in reality, he really wanted to be like his second brother.
Is it okay to earn more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars in business commissions a day?? If you exchange it for a U.S. dollar and bring it back to the mainland, you will not only become rich personally, but you will also become a foreign exchange hero in your hometown.
This is just Hong Kong, and it has not spread to other provinces, island countries, and South Korea. After all, the ratings of super classic dramas like the Romance of the Three Kingdoms will not be low in islands, Korea, Stars, Malaysia, Thailand, etc.
Lu Shuming looked dazed, "This..."
In a daze, a waiter pushing a dining cart passed by the corridor. When he saw Teacher Lu, he became excited and said, "Master Guan, please give me your autograph!"
While talking, the waiter took out a pen, pen and paper from his pocket, and what he took out was a serious personal image poster of Lu Shuming from The Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Looking at the preparations, you can tell that he has been waiting for this moment for a long time. There is nothing wrong with it. The main creative crew of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is staying in their hotel. Could he know? On the way upstairs, he collects a bunch of signatures, turns around and sells them, and he can probably make money.
A wave of money.
Although Lu Shuming is not a super handsome boy, he is 31 years old this year, and his height of 1.86 meters looks impressive, but he can't stand it. The influence of Guan Yu, Guan Erye, in Hong Kong and Hao is really... When did it start?
Is it customary for black and white people to worship Guan Yu?
Teacher Lu was no longer in a daze. He showed a bright smile and began to sign autographs for the other party. He signed several posters in one breath.
This feeling is really good.
You must know that before he was introduced to the Three Kingdoms crew by Guo Da, his life was extremely frustrated and relatively poor. It was not Teacher Guo who recommended him to interview Guan Yu, but he was recognized by six directors at once...
I don’t even know what I will be doing now.
The crew worked for more than 30 months to create an image of Guan Yu that is recognized by the audience. This is so happy. This is recognition and appreciation from the people.
As for Guan Yu's personal silhouette shoes and cultural shirts, which suddenly made more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars? Lu Shuming can only say that others are numb and have no idea how to describe this impact.
Smiling and waving goodbye to the waiter, Lao Lu was feeling happy, but Li Jingfei rubbed the back of his head depressedly, "Why didn't you ask me for my autograph? Didn't you recognize me?"
"We all have big beards on TV, but I think you can beat me because of my popularity."
Also starting from this day, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms TV series became more and more popular. Why does this TV series remain famous in the times? In addition to its creative team trying its best to bring the original plot of the famous novel (Three Kingdoms) to the small screen, to a certain extent, it
The presentation is actually more exciting than the original work.
The cast can read out large chunks of the original lines without getting stuck. From these details, you can tell how much effort was used.
Moreover, when describing historical wars, soldiers from several divisions were often used as extras.
In Asia, the historical classic Romance of the Three Kingdoms is so famous and influential. When a super TV series that tries its best to restore the style of the classic is put on the TV station, it will really have an explosive power that is invincible.
If you try to compare the plot of Red Cliff Up and Down Demon Revision with the Three Kingdoms that respects the original works of the four great classics, it is just a mistake!
Beginning on the 8th, Romance of the Three Kingdoms has been introduced to the TV station over there and started broadcasting. The ratings started to increase by 70%. After all, Hong Kong Island’s super reputation and public opinion have already gained traction.
On the 9th, a TV station in the island country spent 20 million Hong Kong dollars to buy the first round of broadcast rights and introduce it to the island.
Historically, the island country only spent 840,000 US dollars to purchase the copyright, but that was the original track. In the early and mid-1990s, ATV was unable to make much money in this area. Now, the sales power in East and Southeast Asia is in the hands of ATV, and it can’t be bought with a small amount of money.
Go.
It's just the 10th, (Romance of the Three Kingdoms) has already been broadcast on various TV stations in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, bombing Asia.
ATV has invested a lot of money in the (Three Kingdoms) crew. Several allocations have accumulated tens of millions in total, but all the broadcast rights were earned back in the first round.
Along with the earning power of the drama king, there is another explosion.
Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Kung Fu Panda, a movie and a large-scale TV series combined to sweep East and Southeast Asia, Seoul.
Prosecutor Park Jin-wook, including his department boss at the Grand Supervisory Office, and his immediate superiors, are currently receiving Congressman An and Congressman Chen warmly.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
After saying a lot of good things, Park Zhenxu said with a smile, "Councilor An, Councilor Chen, don't you think about it again? This trick... is worth a try."
"Last time, we just arranged for someone to crash a car, but no one was hurt, and Congressman Chen only loved his daughter and dog and was beaten to death. This pace is still a bit off."
"If you ask me to arrange for top players to really shoot you once or twice, or get a minor injury from a fracture in a car accident, and take a rest for a year and a half, then next year's general election, you will turn into a dragon when the storm hits!"
"The effect of the bitter meat trick is known to whoever uses it."
Under Park Zhenxu's confusing words, the two congressmen looked at each other, a little bit like laughing and crying.
They all know and understand that if you use the bitter meat trick well, you can turn into a dragon when encountering a storm. The problem is that if you don't grasp it well and make some mistakes, big things will happen.
You put it nicely, can you stand and talk without back pain, and get one or two shots? If Ma's shot misses, someone will die! As for minor injuries such as fractures in a car accident, that is another life-threatening mode. Once you make a mistake, you will still be injured.
dead person's.
But next year is the general election, and the poisonous weeds will all be out of office.
With such a large-scale water change, district councilors like them want to rise up and become governors. Next year they will be district governors, and next time they may not be able to be city-level governors.
Besides, it’s not hopeless for me to join the National Assembly.
Where is this place? Seoul!
Both congressmen are around 40 years old, and can be considered to be in the prime of life.
Now, they have gained a certain advantage in public opinion by telling the enemy what they want to do in advance and breaking the news to the media. So far, they have not encountered any tricks outside the rules of the Raku Tianxin family to punish them.
This advantage is quite good.
After a while of silence, Councilor An was about to say something, then he heard a knock on the door. When Park Jin-wook went to open the door, he immediately smiled when he saw the visitor and said in English, "Mr. Ren, please come quickly."
Although he has become a member of the Zhao family since meeting Zhao Sheng for the first time, and has also begun to learn Mandarin and Cantonese, but it is because he is too short of time and has not learned it. At this moment, he can only greet people in English.
The Mr. Ren he mentioned was Ren Dahua who was still filming in Huacheng.
Simon Yam's English is also passable, regardless of whether he understands it or not in the original track, but since he joined the Flying Tiger Movie Project and became one of the members who trained with Hua Zai.
Everyone understands that if you want to become an action superstar like Zhang Guorong and Andy Lau and go global, you really need to learn English.
Seeing Ren Dahua, the others also stood up one after another, somewhat surprised.
After a few simple polite greetings and self-introductions, Park Jin-wook smiled and said, "Councilor An, Councilor Chen, and Mr. Ren have long experience in the Hong Kong film and television industry, and they know many dragon and tiger martial arts masters."
"As long as we ask Mr. Ren for help and find us some good players, you two will act as a timekeeper, so you really don't need to worry about being seriously injured..."
"Everything is for the people!"
Councilor An, fuck, he finally understood why he had already drank three rounds of wine and five tastes of food while eating, and why suddenly there was another Ren Dahua.
Ren Dahua was also at a loss. Some things were beyond his professionalism, but Ah Hua still smiled and nodded, "Just talking about friends in the film and television industry, I do have many."
This Da Hua is not very popular at the moment, but he has a lot of friends. After all, whether they are Qiu Guan, TVB's Five Tigers or others, there are many people who have collaborated with him.
After joining the dinner and chatting for a while, Park Jin Wook smiled and said, "Mr. Ren, how was the filming in Hwaseong going smoothly? Did you encounter any trouble, or did you encounter anything interesting?"
To be continued...
