One stone stirs up a thousand waves!

Chu Huan's publicity campaign against "The Great Warlord" completely shattered Jiahe and Shaw Brothers' original plans.

Among them, there is also a fish in the pond that is affected, and that is Wang Yu!

The former No. 1 martial arts student in Hong Kong who only wanted to defeat Li Xiaolong and regain his glory, this time he failed completely at the box office of the movie "The World".

In the end, the film was picked up by Golden Harvest less than two weeks after its release, and the final box office only stayed at HK$470,000.

Even the filming costs were not recovered. It can be said that both Jiahe and Wang Yu lost miserably this time.

Although Jiahe lost, it has a good foundation. With the support of Li Xiaolong's two previous movies, Jiahe can still handle it, but Wang Yu cannot.

This martial arts star's consecutive box office failures in Hong Kong, coupled with his character flaws, made Wang Yu disillusioned with the Hong Kong market.

Of course, Jiahe also began to suppress Wang Yu at this time.

Even if you are a veteran who founded Golden Harvest with us, even if your first movie helped the company open up, you still have to sacrifice when it's time to sacrifice.

After these factors, Wang Yu was disheartened and left Xiangjiang to develop in Taiwan.

But Wang Yu also told the people around him that he would not just give up so willingly. I will come back one day!

These were the last words Wang Yu left to Xiangjiang, and then he boarded the plane to Taiwan.

This is several years earlier than another time and space.

Time is brought back to the present.

Li Hanxiang found Chu Huan the next day, and the smile on Dahei's face could not be concealed.

"Master Huan, thank you so much for what happened this time."

Look, this is the benefit of this era. Chu Huan's vigorous promotion of "The Warlord" is actually to make the movie get better box office, and then the black and white image can get more benefits, but in Li Hanxiang's view

, Chu Huan did this to build a reputation for himself.

In fact, after adding black and white images, Li Hanxiang has always had a fire in his heart. It's not like he hasn't seen reports in newspapers.

Just today there were newspapers writing news about Li Hanxiang, some of which made Li Hanxiang extremely angry.

"I would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. Li Hanxiang, who was once the number one director in Hong Kong, has fallen to this point. In order to avoid Chang Cheh, he chose the black-and-white film company he founded..."

In the report, the grievances between Li Hanxiang and Zhang Che were also mentioned, saying that the reason why Li Hanxiang did not join Shaw Brothers in the end was because Li Hanxiang was afraid of Zhang Che.

There was a fight between the two in the newspaper that caused a stir in the city. As a result, within a few years Li Hanxiang returned from Taiwan in despair, while Chang Cheh rose to fame in Hong Kong and became the number one director.

The report claimed that Li Hanxiang was worried that he would be suppressed by Zhang Che after going to Shaw Brothers, so he gave in and chose Chu Huan's black and white images.

This news was actually a notice issued by Shaw Brothers, and its purpose was naturally to suppress Li Hanxiang from promoting Zhang Che.

The public opinion war has been started by Shao Yifu.

Fortunately, Black and White's promotion of the movie "Warlords" had already started yesterday, otherwise, Li Hanxiang would have exploded after seeing this report.

"Director Li, you are too polite. We are a family now, and your business is our business. What's more, the movie is also made for the company, so the company should naturally spare no effort to support you."

Chu Huan continues to win over people's hearts.

Li Hanxiang said happily: "But the company actually spent so much money for me!"

Chu Huan waved his hand and said: "I have to spend money to let you, Director Li, win this battle. What's more, our company made money some time ago. It just so happens that this time the company's expenses for promoting your movie have also come out!"

Did you see that in order to let you win this war with Zhang Che, the company did not use the money earned from the previous movie to make new movies to continue making money, but used it to fight the war for you? The company is honest!

A blush appeared on Li Hanxiang's big black face, and he said excitedly: "Don't worry, Mr. Huan, I am very confident about the movie "Warlord". It will definitely beat Zhang Che at the box office."

Chu Huan said with a smile: "That's right, Director Li, you should have such ambitions. This time we will not only let you defeat Zhang Che, but also let the whole of Hong Kong know that Director Li, you are still the number one director in Hong Kong."

!”

During Chu Huan's heart-wrenching conversation, Li Hanxiang left Chu Huan's office with great satisfaction.

But Chu Huan's work was not over, Hong Jinbao also came to Chu Huan's office.

The purpose of his coming is very simple, he has written a new script!

Xiangjiang's work efficiency is once again clearly demonstrated.

In the golden age of the film industry in Hong Kong, the film was dared to be filmed even before the script was written, and it was even able to make the film one of the top ten best-selling films in Hong Kong!

"Master Huan, for this movie script, I fully absorbed the shortcomings of the previous movie "Dragon and Tiger Fight" and added more jokes. Take a look!"

After Chu Huan received the script, he did not open it immediately. Instead, he asked Hong Jinbao: "Has the script been read by the review department?"

Now that the company is on the right track, Chu Huan naturally has to do things according to the company's rules and regulations.

The process of forming a black and white film is that the screenwriting department or director, and individual actors complete their own script creation, and then submit it to the review department for review. If there are no problems with the review department, then the film production process will enter the planning department

.

In addition, the company has also established a screenwriting department, and many excellent scripts will appear here in the future.

If the movie script is completed by the company's screenwriting department, then the planning department will assemble the entire crew, including the director, actors, behind-the-scenes and others.

Then the production department started to get involved, calculating the budget for the movie script, assigning production, and a series of other things.

Finally, this project will come to Fang Jianhui's desk, Fang Jianhui signs, the company sets up special funds, and the film officially starts filming!

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This process has not yet been formed in the company. After all, Black and White Image is still a small company, so such a process will be simplified as much as possible.

But once the scale of black-and-white imaging is established, Chu Huan will have the entire company implement this process seriously.

Sure enough, Hong Jinbao touched his head and smiled honestly, saying: "I forgot."

Chu Huan didn't say much, just told him: "Just pay more attention in the future!"

After saying this, Chu Huan finished the script in Hong Jinbao's hands, and then Chu Huan was really surprised.

Because the name of the movie is on the first page of the script, "Sandoku Monk and Chubby Rice".

Although Chu Huan has not seen this movie, he has also seen some documentaries in later generations. It was recorded in the documentaries that this movie is the pioneer of Xiangjiang's humorous action comedy!

But according to memory, this movie should have been made by Hong Jinbao in 1977. It is only now 1972. Without his help... forget it, this movie was originally made by Chu Huan

I can't help, I haven't seen it.

Did Hong Jinbao still write it?

Where is the problem?

In fact, Chu Huan still underestimated the chain reaction caused by his arrival in this world.

After signing Hong Jinbao, Chu Huan has been teaching him to make humorous action comedy movies that are different from Li Xiaolong's style.

Although Hung Kam-bao's last movie "The Fight between Dragons and Tigers" achieved good box office, the shortcomings were noted by Hung Kam-bao one by one.

Then there is the current film "Sande Monk and Chumiliu" which was released in advance.

Seeing something wrong with Chu Huan's expression, Hong Jinbao thought Chu Huan didn't understand something about the movie, so he quickly explained.

"Young Master Huan, I have fully absorbed my experience in this movie and added many funny fighting scenes. You read the script first and I will tell you about the action scenes later."

Chu Huan nodded and began to read the script. At this time, Chu Huan was no longer a script writer. Although he had only made two movies in black and white so far, Chu Huan had read no less than ten scripts.

"Yes, very good!" Chu Huan gave a fairly good evaluation after reading the script. Although he knew that this movie would definitely cause a sensation in Hong Kong, Chu Huan, as a person who is used to big scenes, naturally

Can't be too excited.

"As for the action, I believe you will definitely come up with something innovative. Take it to the production department and come up with a budget. As for the crew, I believe you should already have your own ideas. Again, the company's actors

Priority!"

When Hong Jinbao saw Chu Huan agreeing to his new movie so happily, he said with a smile: "Thank you Mr. Huan, this movie will definitely surpass "Dragon and Tiger Fight"!"

Chu Huan smiled and said: "I believe you!"

...

In the next two days, the citizens of Xiangjiang were basically obsessed with the two movies "Warlords" and "Young People".

The first movie promotion war in the history of Hong Kong movies started without warning in Hong Kong.

Black and White Image used Li's TV, newspapers, magazines, radio stations, bus companies and other promotional means. The pace of publicity at Shaw Brothers was always one step behind Black and White Image's, but they kept up.

Especially in terms of TV promotion, although Yifu Shao has not officially taken over TVB in place of Xiaohe Li, according to the relationship between Yifu Shao and Xiaohe Li, TVB has basically become the exclusive promotion station for the movie "Young People".

Especially now that TV in Hong Kong has just begun to become popular, it has a different appeal to young people. In addition, the movie "Young People" mainly focuses on campus themes.

For young people, this movie has really attracted a lot of attention.

Generally speaking, in terms of publicity strategies, black and white images are ahead in all aspects, but in a certain field, such as television publicity, Shaw Brothers has overtaken them in a corner.

On August 2nd, the citizens of Xiangjiang were finally attracted by another incident.

That is the Xiangjiang Cross-Harbour Tunnel, also known as the Hung Hom Cross-Harbour Tunnel.

Before the undersea tunnel was built, Hong Kong Island, the New Territories, Kowloon Peninsula and other places could only communicate by boat. Now that the undersea tunnel is open, it means that the entire Hong Kong River is completely connected.

This can be seen from the soaring land prices in places like Tsim Sha Tsui and Causeway Bay during this period.

It can be said that the opening of the Hung Hom Undersea Tunnel is something that the entire Hong Kong is paying attention to.

On this day, those citizens who did not have to go to work stayed in front of the TV early, wanting to watch the opening ceremony of the undersea tunnel.
