Hong Kong Entertainment's Life Simulator Main Volume Chapter 371 Boss, you are so disappointing. August 26, night falls.

At a filming location in the ATV TV City, when Li Xiuxian shouted "Ka" and announced that work was over for the day, the crew relaxed and relaxed as scheduled.

When Xiao Ma came over and said hello with a smile, Yuan Hua walked up to Li Xiuxian and said, "Axian, do you think Xiao Ma's acting skills have improved by leaps and bounds in the past month?"

Li Xiuxian nodded, "Yes, compared to when I first started the machine, I have made great progress. It is a good seedling. It's a pity..."

It's a pity that Li Xiuxian only signed a single film contract. Even if he can cultivate Xiao Ma into a big star and become popular, the next time he films with him, it will only be the market price.

Film remuneration and other things should be increased when they should be increased. This is not like the original track where Zhou Xingxing became a hit and the box office exceeded 40 million Hong Kong dollars. He started to be called the Star Master, but he still made a series of movies with a salary of hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars.

opportunity.

"Brother Hua, don't you also want to make a movie by yourself? Do you want to continue to work with Xiao Ma for the next one?"

When Li Xiuxian made a joke, Yuan Hua shook his head, "I don't have the strength or ability, I'm just curious. In the scenes shot now, my acting skills are much better than when I started filming. This film was also shot in stages according to the plan."

"The final scenes in the movie were cut and trimmed."

"Will there be a situation where the acting is good at the beginning, then suddenly deteriorates as you watch it, then improves a bit as you continue watching it, and then gets worse again as you continue watching it?"

"Will it give the audience a sense of fragmentation? A sense of confusion?"

Li Xiuxian, "..."

Just like the future Huang Xiaoming, his acting skills are online and very good in some movies, and then he performs well, the box office and reputation are good, and he quickly rewards himself with a greasy TV series.

Act in another movie and reward yourself with a greasy TV series again??

Is the acting ability still acceptable despite repeated leaps and bounds??

The repeated horizontal jumps in different movies and TV series are already very speechless. Repeated horizontal jumps in one movie??

Li Xiuxian was silent for a while and said, "After a month of shooting, 60% of the shots have been completed. We can't reshoot, right??"

"Even if it is re-filmed, what should he do if his acting skills continue to improve over time?"

In the original track, in order to film the billiards scene, Li Xiuxian directly asked Jimmy White to be the billiards technical director and guest actor. At that time, Zhou Xingxing had already become famous, and double Mondays had become a reality.

Ah Sing certainly did not disappoint Li Xiuxian. Hong Kong Island sold more than 23 million Hong Kong dollars, and the sales in the port were tens of millions. Plus the video tape? It was a huge profit.

This dimension only uses Chinese billiards masters from Hong Kong Island as technical guidance.

Even then, the cost has been greatly reduced, but Lee Soo Hyun still feels that it would be a bit wasteful to reshoot now.

The most mysterious thing is Xiao Ma’s acting skills. It’s like he’s enlightened. He’s improving steadily. Playing opposite to various veteran actors, he’s getting better and better.

Yuan Hua then said cheerfully, "I just mentioned casually, you are the director and investor, the big boss, and you have the final say on whether to reshoot or not. But after the filming is completed, you worry about editing, what if you reshoot?

I need to pay more."

"Do I sign a movie and reshoot it, or does it mean that I have to do a lot of things over again, not reshoot a few scenes, not to mention the total remuneration for a new movie, which must be at least 30% higher, right?"

Li Xiuxian was speechless again.

The salary set for the new member Xiao Ma was only HK$30,000, but the expenses for the entire team including Yuen Hua, Mo Shunyun, Ye Zimei, Liang Jiaren, Long Fang, etc. were not something that could be ignored at will.

He was troubled for a while. Actors' acting skills have grown so quickly that it has become a worry??

How should I put it, just like last month, Zhao Donghuai passed by the TV City filming area and saw that Xiao Ma had become an actor. After a few glances, he realized that he already had 30% to 40% of Ah Xing's acting ability?

Now when it comes to imitating Ah Xing, Xiao Ma already has nearly five successes!

In one month, the top talents have become stronger rapidly.

Now Zhao Donghuai doesn't know about this, otherwise he would complain about his sin. A talent like Xiao Ma actually wants to compete with Ah Xing for food? That's the future Penguin leader of capital.

………………

It's a new day.

In the ATV office, when Zhao Donghuai learned that Lei Juekun and Huang Baiming were visiting, he was slightly surprised and asked, "Is it that the film adapted from the comic has been finished?"

Qiu Shuzhen responded with a smile, "Probably so. This is also a rare and big project for Princess Jin."

As early as early March, when Huang Baiming and Roger agreed to establish Yonggao Film Company, they brought together Johnny Depp, Jennifer Aniston, and Julia Roberts to make big movies. It was 2.18

The salary is HK$100 million.

What a sky-high price??

In the beginning, Yonggao couldn't afford it, so he set his sights on Ju Shao's funds. Who would have thought that Ah Ju was an old-hearted guy who not only wanted to change the script in various ways, but also deceived beautiful white women into contributing to him.

Then Ah Ju was kicked out and did not sign the contract. It was normal to break the contract. Since Huang Baiming took the script and persuaded Depp to join, Huang turned around and called his old financial backer Lei Juekun.

Lei Sheng, he also thinks that the book is okay. At least the original comic is really popular in the island country. With this comic, the author of the comic can almost chase Akira Toriyama, who has been drawing Dragon Ball for 7 years, in terms of popularity.

March has gone through to the end of August now, and it's so normal that the whole production is completed. It's like a movie where a girl comes out of a laser disc and helps the male protagonist fall in love? The special effects are actually very simple.

It's just that this time it was Jennifer Aniston who popped out of the TV, not Sadako.

When Zhao Donghuai met Lei Juekun and Huang Baiming, Huang said hello with a decisive smile, "Sheng Zhao, whether this movie can make money around the world depends on your care, Mr. Zhao."

"By the way, Depp also formed a band with Luo Jialiang during the filming. They said they also wanted to go to Europe and the United States to hold concerts to promote the release? I wonder if they can cover some of the classic songs of Brother Ah Wing and Brother Hua?"

Depp's music career is ordinary and has not made any big waves. But at this stage, with the popularity he has accumulated after his two movies were aired in Europe and the United States, does he still have the appeal of Little Spider?

Fire is real fire!

In this version, the good friend and colleague who goes to the laser disc store with the male protagonist to buy discs is Luo Jialiang.

Chen Jinhong also appeared in the film, which was a big screen contribution for the Friends boy band.

Zhao Donghuai laughed and said, "If they want to run away, just give it a try. I can arrange it for tens of thousands of theaters in East and Southeast Asia. But you also know that the decisive battle has to be postponed due to the length of the film. It is available now, up to 50%

The film scheduling rate is high.”

Lei Juekun took a puff of his cigar and smiled, "50% is quite a lot. In fact, theater chains on Hong Kong Island have a very high vacancy rate. Generally, 50% for movies is quite wealthy."

Not only do cinemas on Hong Kong Island have a certain vacancy rate, but they are also similar over there.

There are 360 ​​big screens in 60 theaters on Hong Kong Island, and there are 200 theaters over there, which equals 1,200 big screens, which is roughly equivalent to 300,000 seats.

If it is really full, a movie ticket is 15 Hong Kong dollars, and a movie with a full house is equivalent to a box office of 4.5 million Hong Kong dollars. If there are ten shows a day? If they are all full, that is equivalent to a maximum daily box office of 45 million Hong Kong dollars.

But is it possible? That's impossible. The box office of a movie in Bendong Province is often only a few million more than that of Hong Kong Island, and sometimes it is not as good as Hong Kong Island's figures.

Let's take the showdown as an example, with a 70% scheduling rate and three shows a day. If all the shows are full, the one-day maximum box office figure will be HK$18.9 million.

In fact, in Wan Province, the peak period was more than 5 million Hong Kong dollars in daily box office. It has been accumulated for almost a month, and the total box office has just exceeded 50 million Hong Kong dollars. The total box office in Hong Kong and Haowan is only over 100 million.

Do you think such a large vacancy rate is a waste?

There is definitely waste, but the problem is Wanjia Cinema Chain. It is never just a problem of one theater chain. It is the theaters that are out of use due to the over-opening of Wanjia Comprehensive Mall, vacancy rate, and daily use for Wanjia Mall.

Super internal staff and family groups used it to watch movies.

There are all kinds of old movies, you can decide what you want to watch.

Looking at the problem from a welfare perspective, the nature is different.

Lei Juekun also knows that whether it is a mule or a horse, it is useless to say whether this Hong Kong romantic comedy movie starring Depp will make a loss or a profit.

"I plan to give it a try. Let Depp and Luo Jialiang hold a concert in Hung Hom to promote the movie, but I don't know if it will conflict with the teacher-student team of the second season of The Voice?"

Zhao Donghuai thought for a while, "It's a bit of a schedule conflict. Why don't you announce it first in Europe and the United States? There are not enough two people. If you are afraid of being left out, you can try calling Beyond. That is a creative band. You ask Depp to find Beyond.

There may also be surprises when you ask for a song."

In terms of the Hong Kong Island music scene, the band awards such as the top music group and beyond are often suppressed by Grasshopper. It was Grasshopper that Mei Yanfang praised, a band that specializes in covering the music of the island country. It suppresses original music all the year round, which is considered quite good.

black.

As a result, Beyond had to go to an island country to develop, and then there was a concert... Huang Jiaju was gone.

But this dimension, from the time Chen Musheng was filming, was Zhao's movie. From time to time, Beyond would be asked to sing songs and ask them to write interludes. Later, after the original contract expired, the band also signed with Zhao's record department. This kind of

Is the wind direction leaking?

Beyond is currently the undisputed leader in the band circle.

Lei Juekun's eyes lit up, "The concert will be held soon. It's a bit late to make an appointment now, but can I just buy Beyond's classic tracks and cover them with English lyrics?"

It's already August 1991. Beyond's classic songs such as Glory Days, Really Love You, Earth, Cold Rainy Night, Like You, Goodbye Ideal, etc., have been released for a long time and are selling well all over the country.

All covered into English songs? Depp and Luo Jialiang are the lead singers? It seems good too?

Zhao Donghuai smiled and said, "You can talk about it yourself. As long as you pay enough, it won't be a big problem."

After Lei Juekun happily walked away, Zhao Donghuai sighed, "I don't know if Depp can lead the fire beyond this time. It would be quite interesting if he became popular in Europe and the United States in this way."

………………

On August 28, Huang Jiaju had just started making the announcement. Early in the morning, Huang Jiaju was still eating at home when he heard a knock on the door.

When he glanced at Huang Jiaqiang, Ah Qiang decisively opened the door. At this stage, the two brothers also lived in a large house in the first phase of Huayuan. It didn't mean that the two brothers had to live together, but that after Huang Jiaju fell in love for the nth time, it was a vacant window for love.

Period, temporarily find a brother to clean the house, cook, etc.

He can devote himself more fully to song creation.

The moment the door opened, Huang Jiaqiang said in shock, "Depp? You?"

Their band has become a hit, and they are the best in the band circle, but what is frustrating is that the music scene in Hong Kong is so explosive. There are four big kings at the top and four little kings at the bottom. After the broadcast of The Voice of Asia, more
To be continued...
