Hong Kong Entertainment's life simulator main volume Chapter 354: Can Real Estate Business War Be So Simple? continued to hit the world's cinema scene until December. In its third week, it took in US$19.8 million in North America and US$15.5 million in Europe.

.

In three weeks, the North American box office has officially exceeded US$60 million, and the European box office has exceeded US$44.5 million, which is equivalent to the official US$100 million in Europe and the United States, which is 821 million Hong Kong dollars, and the mainland has earned a total of 590 million yuan.

Hong Kong's Haowan combined for three weeks totaled HK$77 million, South Korea's HK$250 million, Thailand's HK$210 million, that's all, the total box office has exceeded HK$2 billion!

Selling port? 50 million Hong Kong dollars.

However, Li Guoxing chose 70% of the Jim Carrey version to be sent to island countries, ink pads, Filipino maids and other places, while 30% chose the Zhou Xingxing version.

Jim Carrey... exploded!

As soon as he returned to Hong Kong from the North American promotion, a Hollywood producer asked him to make a new movie with a salary contract of US$5 million.

And before, he couldn't get a new love interest, and he only had a salary of US$500,000. As for Hollywood? Whether a show is a hit or not, whether there is a sequel is a key criterion.

There is no second part, you must know that Bruce Willis starred in it and it lasted for five seasons.

The last $500,000 was already a figure that increased his salary after he became popular.

After taking over the original project, his salary jumped to US$7 million. Of course, 1994 was also the year when Jim Carrey originally established himself as the king of Hollywood comedies. The first one was a movie that grossed US$100 million at the global box office.

Following the global sales of 351 million U.S. dollars, the global sales were 247 million U.S. dollars... In the same year, this movie hit a box office figure of 700 million U.S. dollars.

In this dimension, it can only be said that the Zhao family broke out four years in advance when they asked him to play the villain.

Not only has Jim Carrey's salary skyrocketed, his popularity has skyrocketed, and he has also been invited to the Golden Globe Awards, waiting for him to attend the ceremony in January 1991.

There is no such thing as Jia Ling...

In the first phase of Huayuan, when Jim Carrey walked into a commercial house and walked around with the agent, he became more and more satisfied. The agent smiled and said, "Mr. Jin, if you are interested, buy it as soon as possible. We don't think too much."

Making money is about telling the truth. Among all Huayuan projects, the first phase is the most valuable and has the fastest appreciation.”

"There are more than a dozen buildings in the entire community, and there are almost no ordinary citizen owners now. Not only is it safe and reliable for you to live here, but you also have many colleagues, so you don't have to worry about being mobbed by fans."

Jim Carrey also laughed, "That's true. If it weren't for this reason, I wouldn't want to buy a house here. What's the current price?"

The agent's smile became even brighter, "The market price is 23,000 Hong Kong dollars per square meter."

Jim Carrey clicked his tongue and said, "I remember when I came to Hong Kong in March, the house price in Tsim Sha Tsui was only 18,000?"

In just over half a year, the price has increased by 5,000 yuan per square meter. This is really stupid. The agent even laughed bitterly when he complained, "In April 1988, when the first phase of Huayuan was handed over, it was still 14,000 yuan per square meter.

It has increased by nearly 10,000 yuan in the middle of the year.”

"Don't think it's expensive. If you think it's expensive, you can go to Kwun Tong or Tseung Kwan O. It's only NT$10,000 per square meter."

It's so outrageous. Today is the end of the year. The average house price in Kowloon is 1,480 per square foot, which is close to 15,000 per square foot. But that's the average price. The average price represents 20,000 in the core area of ​​Yau Tsim Mong. In Tseung Kwan O,

Ciyun Mountain is ten thousand.

The first phase of Hua Yuan is a super high-quality community. It is more than NT$3,000 more expensive than the ordinary area in Yau Tsim Mong, which is also common.

I was the first to pay money to buy a house in the first phase of Huayuan just after it was built. It has only been four years, and the house price has more than doubled. How can I buy a house here in 1986 with tens of thousands of square meters? At that time, it was only six to seven thousand yuan per square meter.

square meters.

Regarding housing prices, it cannot be said that Zhao Donghuai has not worked hard. Under his control, large-scale development in the New Territories has become more and more popular. More than a dozen new communities such as Tai Hang Village have been built, and more are under construction.

But housing prices are so many times higher than in the original trajectory. There are tens of millions of white tourists alone every year. Those who stay and work on a three-month visa are also in the millions. Three

Just renew after a few months.

In the original track, in 1990, the permanent population of Hong Kong Island was only 5.7 million. Even if there were no statistics on black households and black workers, 5.7 million was already very crowded. However, in this dimension, statistics last year showed that the white people who worked in Hong Kong were stable and permanent with three-month visas.

There are more than 1.1 million yuan floating there.

Those who work for a week or a month and go home without coming back for a while can cost millions.

There are also hundreds of thousands of immigrants coming from the mainland.

Liang Zaihui is able to select groups of white and Latin pretty girls in batches!

Prices are naturally...

Next, Jim Carrey signed a contract with the agency. The total price of a 130-square-meter house with a shared apartment is about 3 million. After paying taxes on the remuneration from his crew, he can buy it.

Although it is a second-hand house, the first landlord has only lived in it for two years. No matter the community or the buildings, they are all new.

After agreeing on the matter of buying a house, Jim Carrey just walked out and saw Fei Jing standing outside the door waiting. He was suddenly surprised and said, "Director Wang??"

Fei Jing smiled brightly, "Look at the script. I plan to ask you to star next year. If you have any ideas, please let me know. Let's study more."

Jim Carrey took the comic and was even more confused, "A weirdo in disguise?"

What Lao Wang gave him was a comic from Dark Horse Comics, but speaking of it, this comic actually had a dark heroic style. When the Hollywood director originally planned to adapt the comic, he thought of making it into a horror film...

Before Jim Carrey could say anything more, Wang Jing smiled and said, "Have you seen Ah Xing? If it's after the New Year, when we start filming, the story should move closer to the style."

It's already December 4th, and the filming will have to wait until after the New Year. After all, for a big special effects movie, it takes a lot of time to prepare various models in advance.

Of course, Wang Jing himself has never read the comics, so he came here because of Zhao Donghuai’s suggestion, and the copyright has been obtained from Dark Horse Comics.

As for why they didn’t film it first, there’s one story: Plane Detective was able to earn a global box office of US$100 million, all because of Jim Carrey’s performance. Strictly speaking, it’s a bad movie...

It's not an exaggeration to say it's bad, it's similar to a movie like Zhou Xingxing's average-level comedy.

After Jim Carrey said that he would read the comics carefully and read them a few more times, Wang Jingcai continued, "You have been staying in Hong Kong Island for almost a year. How do you make money by helping Zhao make movies? If you take this, the salary will be 2 million

Hong Kong dollars, do you understand?"

Jim Carrey laughed, "Understood, I only received 200,000 Hong Kong dollars at the beginning, but it's not long and dark. Where did it come from? Now in East and Southeast Asia, the sales of my personal products seem to be very good."

"If it continues for years and months, it won't be a small amount of money anymore."

The salary offered by Hollywood is very high, already US$500 is equivalent to HK$39 million per movie, but he did not resist Zhao's film contract at HK$2 million.

The way to make money is different. As time goes by, you can make more stable and more money by shooting movies on Hong Kong Island.

To put it bluntly, it was the first movie in 1983, in which Zhou Yunfa went undercover and became the new leader of the Pan-Asian Group. It was broadcast several times on the ATV movie channel, on the same day or the next day, in Hong Kong, South Korea, Thailand, Zhou Yunfa

The income from carrying goods may be hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars per day...

It’s higher than Ah Fa’s total salary when he took on this movie!

This is day entry!

After all, the range of goods he carries is too large, from soda, beer and instant noodles to clothing, shoes and hats, shampoo, and laundry detergent. When put together, the whole thing is too huge.

After the feeling of the new world has passed, if you put aside your heroic nature, you may earn hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars a day again the next day.

Wang Jing laughed, "As long as you understand, let's go. When you finish this house, let's go to the celebration banquet of Xu's Pictures. Good guy, we finally made a blockbuster with a total box office of over 2 billion Hong Kong dollars. The Xu family can't

It’s crazy fun.”

“It’s also appropriate to hold more celebration banquets.”

Today is the 4th. After the time difference, the total box office has just been calculated. Ah Heng of the Hui family is not only crazy about joy, he is about to explode. This is to prove to the traditional wealthy circles in Hong Kong that he, Ah Heng, is not a dou.

What a masterpiece.

On the surface, this is a total investment of about 200 million, resulting in a business masterpiece of more than 2 billion Hong Kong dollars! As for how much money Ah Heng donated for this in private, it is not enough for outsiders.

………………

ATV office.

When Zhou Huimin came to deliver soup with a big belly, she asked curiously, "Brother Huai, are you on?"

Zhao Donghuai nodded, "Yes, let's turn it on. The white version is Winona Ryder. The Chinese version is won by Zhang Min. She has the best acting skills and the best sign language."

It has been three months. Not only Zhang Min, the two main creative teams selected at the time, is extremely good at learning sign language, but Di Long and Wu Zhenyu are also not far behind. At first glance, they are really good at communicating with deaf-mute people in sign language.

Problem.

Di Long and Lao Wu really found some deaf-mute people to live, eat and live with, and the white versions of Al Pacino and Nicholas were similar.

I wrote the script in early September and started shooting in December. I estimate that it will be almost completed before the Spring Festival. There are still more than 70 days until the Spring Festival.

Amin then smiled and said, "That Amin is indeed good at learning. It's almost New Year's Day, and it feels like time flies so fast."

Zhao Donghuai nodded and said nothing. 1991 is coming. There will be many major events in the world in 1991. First, the real estate bubble of the island country collapsed, which completely brought out the Heisei era of fat houses.

Things started to get unstable on the other side of the bay, with floods in East China, and then the big furry bear...

By the time Zhao Zheng is born, it will probably be over on the other side of the bay.

Also, the Shanghai Stock Exchange and Pengcheng Stock Exchange are about to open for business one after another. This month, it is time for Ah Xin and the others to hold shares and buy some stocks, and then make a wave first.

………………

Starting from December 3rd, posters have been distributed all over East Asia and Southeast Asia. This movie was originally scheduled to be released on the 7th. From the 7th to the 23rd, there is only a half-month period to collect money.

By the 24th, it’s the world.

I won’t say that I will be 100% scheduled for the film, that would be too exaggerated, but when the time comes, I will definitely be suppressed and tremble.

The same is true for Hong Kong Island in this regard...

Hollywood superheroes and various other great special effects movies began to take the world by storm in the 1990s, and it was only in the 2020s that they gradually showed signs of weakness and were weakened step by step.

What the Hong Kong film industry can do now is to mix in as many Chinese-funded productions as possible and promote its own superhero series to compete with them.
To be continued...
