Chapter 42
After the small-scale internal screening on the opening day, it was praised by everyone.
The next day, Wei Hongsheng immediately took the sample film to discuss the release with the theater and the distribution company. After several days of hard work, he finally negotiated the release and release.
In the 60s, there were only a few distribution companies in Xiangjiang. After some comparisons, Wei Hongsheng still agreed to sign a distribution contract with Shaw Brothers and Sons.
Shaw Brothers was formerly known as Nanyang Film Company. In [-], Run Run Shaw established Shaw Brothers and took over the production business of Shaw Brothers. Shaw's later glory.
Choosing Shaw Brothers as the distributor, although they will be charged a high share of profits, will allow the film to be released in more theaters in Hong Kong, and with Shaw Brothers' distribution network, the film will be able to enter Southeast Asia and Taiwan. The benefits are also substantial.
After signing the contract, Big Hero entered the screening process. Under the operation of Shaw Brothers, it will be shown in its own theaters first, and other theaters will gradually release it within a few days.
Once the big hero was released, it went low and high in just two or three days. The reputation of the movie produced by non-stars, non-famous directors and non-famous companies spread rapidly like a virus among people who can afford to go to the cinema.
Reviews of the film have been mixed from those who have seen it, but no one will deny one thing - it hits hard!It's fun to watch!
Zhang Jin brought new shooting and editing ideas to Wei Hongsheng. He abandoned the previous one-shot fighting editing method and focused on highlighting the thrills of fighting. Isn't it good to watch street performers? You can still go whoring for nothing.
The film was screened in various theaters in Hong Kong for a week and a half, and finally earned 120 million in box office revenue, which shocked the Hong Kong film industry and became the first film to break through one million at the box office.
Director Wei Hongsheng and leading actor Luo Hao immediately became celebrities, attracting interviews from many newspapers and periodicals.
And Yongsheng Film Company has also entered the field of vision of Shaw Brothers, the film industry leader. The local box office of the movie hero is not bad. With this shareholder style, it will be released in Southeast Asia and Taiwan as soon as possible, and it will surely create another glories!
Seeing the potential of Yongsheng Film Company, He Qisheng asked Zhang Jin out for dinner several times, promising that if Zhang Jin took out a loan from Hang Seng Bank, he would definitely give him a discount and a low interest rate.
"Hey, Ah Jin, I'm so famous recently! People recognize me when I walk on the street, and I found a lot of girls secretly looking at me. Are you saying that my handsomeness has finally been discovered!"
The drunk Luo Hao lay on the sofa, excitedly talking about his situation during this period of time.
"Don't be so loud, Xiao Shui has already fallen asleep! Tomorrow is her first day of school, she must be in a good state." Zhang Jin reminded.
Luo Hao waved his hand: "Your villa is so big, Xiao Shui sleeps on the second floor, how could you disturb her. Hey, let me ask you, when do you plan to make the next movie?"
"If you have money, keep shooting."
"You don't have any money? Don't be kidding! This movie made millions! Hiccup!"
"Are you stupid? 120 million box office, a share with the distribution company and theaters. I only got about 70. I invested millions of dollars back and forth to make a movie. Now I don't even get the money back. How can I make another movie?" ?” Zhang Jin said.
During this period of time, he spent 100 million on movies, Grizzly spent another 50, gave Wang Weimin 20, bought a villa and added 70 for decoration, and added some miscellaneous expenses, it was close to 300 million. The first pot of gold that the gamblers got was gone.
Fortunately, for more than half a year, there are hundreds of thousands of dividends that the bettors have given him every month, which adds up to 400 million.However, he does not intend to continue to invest this money in the film company, but plans to use it to buy people's hearts.
In a month or two, the big event in the original plot should happen. Lei Luo is determined to change the person in charge of the Jianghu. The doll contacts Fat Zaichao and Yan Tong to turn against Master Ding, and tries to kill Lei Luo.
He must seize this opportunity to complete control of the Kowloon Walled City.
Black, he is the biggest.Bai, he also wants to sit on an equal footing with Lei Luo!
"Hey, Ah Hao, back then I asked the masters in the ring to support me unconditionally when something happened, do you think it's still possible now?"
"I will support you! I will support you! I will support you even if I die! Hiccup!" Luo Hao was dazed and stretched out a finger, "Now you are everyone's God of Wealth. If you don't support me, who else will you support?"
From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.
The next day, Zhang Jin sent Xiaoshui to Maria Middle School to study. This middle school is a girls' boarding school with a five-year schooling system and an annual tuition fee of 12 Hong Kong dollars.
Zhang Jin accompanied Xiaoshui to complete the admission procedures, and told her to study hard and call him if there was any trouble, and then he left.
After getting in the car, Zhang Jin received a notification from the system. He didn't need to look at it to know that his number of good deeds had increased, but the third-level good deeds required [-] tasks, so he didn't even bother to read it now.
He plans to complete the mission of good deeds through various charities in the future, so let's put it aside for now, anyway, whether there is a reward for the mission has little impact on him at present.
Zhang Jin drove to the commercial building in Central where the company is located. As soon as he entered the company gate, the front desk told him that there was a customer looking for him. When he came to the meeting room, he found that the person was Lard Boy.
"Hello, Mr. Zhang, right? Excuse me, I'm Lei..." Lard Boy got up and introduced himself.
Zhang Jin waved his hand: "I know who you are, Lard Boy, the follower of Inspector Lei, right?"
"I didn't expect Zhang Sheng to have such a good memory. We only met once outside the Kowloon Walled City, and you remember me." Lard Boy laughed.
"No, more than once, we also met in the hospital."
"Really? I really have no impression."
Of course you didn't remember it. At that time, your attention was all on nurse Ah Qing.
Zhang Jin asked: "Inspector Lei asked you to come to me for something?"
"Brother Luo wants to meet with you, when is it convenient for you?"
"Convenient anytime."
"How about tonight?"
"Okay."
"Then I'll take a seat at the Peyton Western Restaurant in Wanchai. See you there at seven o'clock in the evening. Let's go first, stay."
"Go slowly, tell Detective Lei, I will definitely go."
After seeing Lard Boy off, Zhang Jin pondered for a moment, then turned and entered the company.
Although he has no money to start filming new movies, he has to make a list of the movies he plans to make in the future to make a plan. With the rapid development of Hong Kong's economy, the box office of movies will increase in the future. The influence of movies on ordinary people The power is also getting wider and wider.
As the boss of Yongsheng Film Company, he will also benefit from it, and his own influence will be increased to a certain extent. Strong personal influence is also one of his means to counter Lei Luo.
In terms of contacts, ability and influence, he must have one that surpasses Lei Luo, otherwise how can he compete with the other party on the white road!
Of course, enhancing one's influence does not depend solely on making movies, and opening a film company is only the first step. His goal is to become the uncrowned king of this era.
