158 [Playing a good abacus]
The black Bentley luxury car parked at the door of Princess Golden Theater. The assistant got out of the car and opened the door and reminded: "Mr. Lei, we're here."
Lei Juekun's cane first stretched out of the car, then stepped out with one foot, and what greeted him was a series of flashing lights.
As soon as he walked out two steps, Lei Juekun was surrounded by reporters. A reporter asked first: "Mr. Lei, you come to the premiere of "The Royal Sister" in person. You must have great expectations for this drama. Can you estimate its box office?"
Lei Juekun said with a smile: "I am still very confident in the scenes filmed by director Kang Jianfei. As for how many box offices will be, please wait and see."
"Mr. Lei, the films released by Princess Jin's theaters have been selling well in box office. There are rumors that you want to expand the scale of the theaters. Is it true?" another reporter asked.
Lei Juekun said: "I have the idea of expanding the theater chain, but it has not been implemented yet."
Faced with the continuous interviews by reporters, Lei Juekun answered questions, but his answers were all ambiguous, which disappointed the reporters.
Lei Juekun walked into the theater box and lit a cigar in a complicated mood.
Lei Juekun does have the idea of expanding the Golden Princess Cinema. Although he holds Kowloon Bus and Kowloon Jianye, the development of both companies has stagnated. In particular, Kowloon Bus was in a good situation, but the Hong Kong government suddenly issued a profit control order, stipulating that Kowloon, which has a public utility quality, must not exceed 16%. As soon as this regulation was issued, Kowloon Bus' stock price plummeted and almost never rose in the following years. In Kowloon Jianye, the investment partners also had conflicts with Lei Juekun. Although the problem has been solved, it still caused him a headache.
Only the Golden Princess Cinema has performed very well since the reform and reopened last year, which greatly encouraged Lei Juekun's confidence in entering the film industry.
There were only 75 cinemas in Hong Kong the previous year, and last year it soared to 80, and this year it increased by 2 again. While the number of cinemas increased, a new Tenghui theater chain with only 3 small cinemas was opened. With the prosperity of Hong Kong's films, the number of cinemas will only be more. Lei Juekun feels that the prospects for cinemas business are broad.
Just when Lei Juekun was about to acquire two more theaters, Hong Jinbao's behavior made him feel it.
Lei Juekun didn't know that He Guanchang had privately found Sammo Hung, but Sammo Hung suddenly withdrew from half of the new film shooting plan and started to make some other small moves. All signs indicate that Sammo Hung is preparing to leave Jinbao Film Company.
Jinbao Film Company has been making profits, but Sammo Hung wants to withdraw his shares now. There is only one reason, that is, Jiahe has offered more favorable conditions for Sammo Hung.
"Feel the unfamiliar ungrateful wolf!" Lei Jue Kun could only sigh. In order to win over Sammo Hung, he did not put any condoms to kill him. Now Sammo Hung can really leave. The only thing Lei Jue Kun can do is to release the overseas distribution of two movies, including "Zombie Taoist Master", before Sammo Hung leaves, so that Sammo Hung cannot share the overseas profits of these two movies.
Not long after, Li Maowen, Chen Rongmei, Feng Bingzhong and others entered the private room, and there were special waiters who brought them drinks.
As soon as Feng Bingzhong came in, he poured wine himself. Looking at the many media reporters below and the industry, he smiled and said, "Kang Jianfei is getting more and more adept at making a premiere. Even Jiahe has to learn when she released "Killer Trench" to Cheng Long."
Chen Rongmei still remembered Guan Zhilin's last time pouring his wine, and sneered: "This kid has only been in Hong Kong for a year and has already had scandals with several women. Don't fall into it one day."
Although Chen Rongmei loves face and holds grudges, she will never turn against Kang Jianfei. After all, he is a shareholder of Princess Jin Cinemas, and Kang Jianfei is now Princess Jin's money tree.
Feng Bingzhong asked: "Awen, do you think the box office of this "Royal Sister" will exceed 10 million?"
Li Maowen smiled and said, "I'm afraid the box office will not be less than "Mr. Zombie."
"So amazing?" Chen Rongmei asked in surprise. "Mr. Zombie" had a box office of more than 20 million yuan.
Li Maowen explained: "During the test film, neither Mr. Feng nor Mr. Chen, you two were present. If you had watched this film, you would know. Those speeding and explosion scenes are hard to see even in Hollywood, so I was shocked on the spot."
As the general manager of Princess Jin Cinema, Li Maowen has a high aesthetic taste for the film. Since he can shock him, it means that this film is really interesting.
Feng Bingzhong smiled and said, "I'll have to take a good look after what Manager Li said."
This time the premiere of "Sister Royal" was completely different from the last time when "Mr. Zombie" was premiered. Kang Jianfei only sent invitation letters to more than 20 major Hong Kong media and more than 30 industry insiders, rather than the media alone took the initiative to invite more than 200 like last time.
Now that Kang Jianfei is famous, he will naturally not even invite a reporter from Ahmao and Dog. Send an invitation to you to give you face. As for the others, do you like to come or not. Otherwise, Kang Jianfei's premiere invitation will be too valuable.
Even so, there were at least dozens or hundreds of reporters attending the premiere tonight, and many of them bought high-priced tickets for themselves.
Since "The Royal Sister" has been popular before it started filming, some movie fans have been hyped up to more than 200 yuan each in order to get a sneak peek.
Lei Juekun sat in the box and watched the premiere start, but he was considering whether the box office of "The Royal Sister" would be used to exchange shares of Oriental Dream Factory if the box office exceeded 20 million again.
If Kang Jianfei's movies exceeded 20 million in two consecutive movies, then Oriental DreamWorks will definitely be like a treasure pot. Maybe there will be someone who is too much money and burned to pull Kang Jianfei out to set up another theater. Only by using Princess Jin's shares to tie Kang Jianfei up, from a long-term perspective, is the safest way.
Although Lei Juekun likes to take everything in his hands, he has to admit that he can no longer suppress Kang Jianfei's development momentum. This young man is so capable, and he is so young, with unlimited room for growth. Working together to make money is the king.
As for exchanging shares of Princess Jin and Oriental Dream Factory, he gradually took Oriental Dream Factory into his own hands through management and business methods. At that time, Kowloon Bus and Kowloon Jianye, Lei Juekun was not the largest shareholder at first, but in the end he became the things in his hands.
At the premiere, Hiroyuki Sanada and Keiko Matsusaka did not attend. During the interactive session, except for Kang Jianfei and Lin Qingxia, only the girl Yang Caini gave the most applause, especially because she didn't say a cute and cute word, which caused the audience to burst into laughter.
When the movie began to be screened, Lei Juekun had already conceived a general plan in his mind. He first used the company's shares to put Kang Jianfei on Princess Jin, and then he used various means to gradually erode the shares of Oriental Dream Factory, and finally took Oriental Dream Factory completely in his own hands.
Of course, Lei Juekun would not do too much. He just needs to become the first shareholder of Oriental Dream Factory, intending to leave Kang Jianfei with 30% or 40% of the shares, and then let Kang Jianfei honestly make money by making movies for him.
Fantastic music sounded, and the opening of the little boy sitting on the moon fishing company appeared in front of everyone. The picture flashed and was already on the streets of Tokyo.
The highly rhythmic street rock performance immediately brings a sense of fashion to the audience. With just a few shots, the audience has already told the audience that "The Royal Sister" is different from the old-fashioned jing bandit films before.
Lin Qingxia was wearing a casual white outfit and wandered around the streets of Riben, taking out her camera to take pictures from time to time.
As the camera turned, it was a member of the club who was chasing the group to kill the group-leader. The man was chased and fled towards Lin Qingxia who was taking pictures, and finally fell at Lin Qingxia's feet.
In previous publicity, the audience had already learned that Lin Qingxia played a jingjian and there were also action scenes.
When the audience saw the hunted Ri himself lying at Lin Qingxia's feet, they felt a sense of expectation in their hearts. They guessed that Lin Qingxia was probably going to meddle in other people's affairs with those members of the community.
The director did not disappoint the audience. Lin Qingxia stretched out her legs and hooked an enemy down, then she kicked another beautiful side kick and kicked the second person who was chasing him.
"good!"
"This leg is so beautiful!"
"I didn't expect Lin Qingxia's kung fu was pretty good."
“…”
As soon as Lin Qingxia showed her skills, she had already won praise. The main reason was that she had acted in romance films before, and the audience did not have high expectations for her action scenes. As a result, she found that Lin Qingxia had "extraordinary performance" and immediately cheered up.
In Hong Kong movies, women have always been just vases and appendages. Even Mao Ying, Hui Yinghong and Zheng Peipei, three famous beating girls, are difficult to take the lead in the entire kung fu movie.
The combination of beautiful women and jingcai kung fu is very pleasing to the eye, especially Lin Qingxia's scissor legs without editing or substitute made countless viewers shout excitedly.
Chen Rongmei in the box stared at Lin Qingxia on the screen, her eyes straightened. He had never thought that women would look so good when fighting. After swallowing, he immediately wrote a note and called the waiter and said, "Send this glass of wine and notes to Miss Lin Qingxia in the No. 2 box."
"Okay, Mr. Chen." The waiter put the wine in the tray, took the note and left the box.
Feng Bingzhong knew that Chen Rongmei liked beauty and couldn't help but smile: "Arong, I don't know how many wealthy businessmen in Taiwan want to pursue Miss Lin. You can think of a note and a glass of wine? She is not the girls you meet who come in as soon as possible."
"Yes," Chen Rongmei thought for a while and said, "It seems that I have to go there in person."
Lei Juekun suddenly spoke, "Kang Jianfei is also in that box."
"Uh..." Chen Rongmei, who had just stood up, opened her mouth wide and sat back soon. He didn't want to and dared to have a conflict with Kang Jianfei in person. Who knew what that man could do?
As a woman, I can’t find anything.
Mr. Chen decided to go back and play a few beauties who practice martial arts. They took off their legs and punched them on the bed. They played when they were sweating profusely. It was absolutely powerful!
