On May 12, the selection work of the Miss Oriental beauty pageant was completed. After multiple reviews and adjustments, a total of 115 applicants entered the re-examination session.

The re-examination session is to be photographed throughout the whole process, and some exciting shots will be broadcast on TV. This is also an original practice of the Miss Oriental beauty pageant. The previous Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant was the most popular before the finals to promote it.

Of course, it was not that the planner of Miss Hong Kong was too stupid. I didn’t expect to use various behind-the-scenes to make short films from the beginning. Instead, the photography used to be filmed, and how much film would be wasted if one or two hundred finalists took photos!

Kang Jianfei was also preparing to go to the re-examination site to see it, but because of other things, he was delayed and he was going to attend the screening of "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers".

"The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" directed by McDonald Bear has been produced. If this movie is released in the ordinary schedule, Jiang Zhiqiang can make the decision, but if he wants to be in this summer, he must be approved by Kang Jianfei.

In a screening room at Oriental Cinema, Jiang Zhiqiang and several theater managers gathered together, while McDonald Bear and an employee of the DreamWorks distribution department analyzed the box office prospects of "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" to the hospital business managers.

Suddenly, the light in the screening room lit up, but the back door was opened. Kang Jianfei's assistant Zeng Bolin walked in first, and Kang Jianfei also entered the screening room in a few seconds.

"Hello Mr. Kang!"

"It's really rare to see Boss Kang."

"Mr. Kang, please sit down!"

“…”

The theater managers quickly stood up to greet them, with pleasing smiles on their faces. Since the establishment of Oriental Cinema Company, these franchise theaters have made more money than before in the new era theaters, and they regard Kang Jianfei as their parents for food and clothing.

"Sit all!" Kang Jianfei said to everyone, and he picked up a seat in front of the middle and sat down.

Jiang Zhiqiang and McDonald Bear sat on the left and right side of Kang Jianfei. The others immediately picked up the back seat and sat down. No one dared to surpass Kang Jianfei's seat and sit in front.

McDonald nodded to the projector behind him, and immediately a beam of light hit the big screen. The first one was naturally the opening animation of DreamWorks, and then the opening film of McDonald Bear Studio.

The opening of the McDonald Bear Studio is very rough. A few red glittering stars are surrounded by rubber discs. A beam of light shot down from the diagonal, leading to a few big words from the McDonald Bear Film Studio.

After displaying the production company, the subtitles "Movie Planner: Cen Jianxun" suddenly appeared on the screen. Kang Jianfei frowned and asked, "Aren't Cen Jianxun forming Debao with Pan Disheng? Why did he go to your studio?"

McDonald Xiong didn’t know what unpleasantness Kang Jianfei and Cen Jianxun were. He said truthfully: “The original idea of ​​this movie came from Cen Jianxun. Now he is working in my studio to plan.”

After McDonald Bear said this, Kang Jianfei could probably guess what the situation was.

Last year, Cen Jianxun had been planning the film production department of DreamWorks. Maybe one time he accidentally talked about the creativity of "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" with McDonald. Later, Cen Jianxun was invited by Pan Disheng to establish Debao Film Company. She thought it was an opportunity. Cen Jianxun quit her job at DreamWorks and ran to Pan Disheng's side happily. However, she didn't expect that after the establishment of Debao Film Company, she never filmed the film.

Cen Jianxun is now in a daze. It happened that McDonald Bear wanted to film "The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers", so he brought Cen Jianxun, who had nowhere to go, into his movie studio.

Kang Jianfei didn't say much. It was a good thing to help Cen Jianxun make money by filming films in his studio. As for the so-called loyalty, although Kang Jianfei hates those who have been resigning from a job, he really doesn't take the so-called loyalty seriously. Besides, Cen Jianxun's departure did not cause any losses to DreamWorks, so Kang Jianfei didn't feel very disgusted with Cen Jianxun.

The beginning of the film is the introduction of the hero's protagonist by subtitles. Kang Jianfei only watched it for more than ten seconds before whispering to McDonald Bear: "The subtitles are jumping too fast, which may not be suitable for some viewers. It is best to add a voiceover before the official release and read these subtitles directly to increase the audience's viewing comfort."

Although McDonald Bear didn't care about these details, he didn't want to argue with Kang Jianfei in such an insignificant place, so he nodded and agreed.

The current drama "The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldier" is almost the same as the plot in Kang Jianfei's memory, but at least one-half of the actors have been replaced because most of the actors used by McDonald Bear are artists from Oriental Entertainment.

It is worth mentioning that all the starring actors of "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" use newcomers and the old supporting actors who are not popular, which can better increase the realism of the film.

More than ten minutes after the movie was screened, the plot gradually reached its climax. There was no more noise in the screening room, and everyone turned their attention to the big screen.

It has to be said that purely in terms of grasping the rhythm of the film, McDonald Bear is more than one level better than Xu Ke at this time. Of course, Xu Ke also has his unique advantages. McDonald Bear's talent comes from careful observation and reflection on reality, while Xu Ke's talent is reflected in the imaginative film thinking.

In the last decisive battle, there were only bursts of gunfire in the screening hall, and even the theater managers held their breath and looked at the big screen intently.

After the movie ended, the screening room was silent, and when McDonald Bear was nervous, everyone sincerely gave applause.

Jiang Zhiqiang said to Kang Jianfei: "I think "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" can be released in the summer season."

Kang Jianfei nodded and smiled, "But it's OK, but don't be too optimistic about the box office, it's almost the same as the 10 million yuan."

Jiang Zhiqiang said in confusion: "No, I think this movie is very interesting, especially now that the Sino-British negotiations are not over yet, "The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" will inevitably attract great attention once it is released."

McDonald Bear also looked at Kang Jianfei in confusion. Of course, he thought his movie was as good as it could sell for 20 million yuan.

"The box office is not calculated this way," Kang Jianfei shook his head and explained, "The largest group of movie audiences in the summer season are students on holidays. Although the picture of "The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldier" is very popular, the topics contained in it are too heavy. Audiences under 20 will not like to watch it. "The Pretty Girl" is also a serious topic, but there are at least a few beautiful girls in that movie. This "The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldier" is full of fierce men. How many teenage student audiences do you expect to see it?"

Kang Jianfei's analysis is reasonable, just like pouring a basin of cold water on the McDonald Bear. In fact, Kang Jianfei did not say anything nonsense. In parallel space, although "The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldier" was widely promoted this summer, he was defeated by the campus comedy "Happy Ghost". The reason is naturally because the student audience is the main force in the summer season.

Kang Jianfei also said: "It is not appropriate to put movies like "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" in the Christmas and Spring Festival periods. It is a waste to put them in the summer period. It is better to put them in late June."

The schedule in late June is very awkward. If the movie is released for a long enough time, it can barely enter the summer season. Once the attendance rate is not high, then you can only use the path to explore the summer season movies.

McDonald Bear was a little dissatisfied. "The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldier" can definitely be said to be his proud work. He could not be ranked in the normal summer season in Oriental Cinemas. He felt that he was deliberately suppressed by Kang Jianfei.

McDonald Bear was so angry that he didn't say anything, but he heard Kang Jianfei say: "Old Mai, although the box office of "The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" has exceeded 10 million, the social influence must be very large. You should prepare to shoot a sequel next year."

"Photo a sequel?" McDonald Bear opened his mouth wide and looked at Kang Jianfei. The first part had not been released yet, so he actually asked him to prepare for a sequel.

McDonald Bear really doesn't understand Kang Jianfei. Since he thinks "The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldier" is well filmed, why not just schedule it to be screened in a normal summer season?

The answer is very simple, because "The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldier" wants to make a seat for Kang Jianfei's "Love Saint" and Wang Jing's "Best Bad Friend". "Love Saint" and "Best Bad Friend" are both more suitable for release in the summer than "The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldier".

When Oriental Cinemas is planning to schedule films, "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" will be screened from June 20 to July 15, "Love Saint" will be screened from July 16 to August 20, and "Best Partner" will be screened from August 21 to September 15.

Of course, these dates are not absolute and can vary depending on the box office situation, but the general schedule has been set. That is to say, in this summer, Kang Jianfei's "Love Saint" is the main movie, while "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldier" and "Best Bad Friend" act as pioneers and rear troops.

Kang Jianfei said his thoughts and Jiang Zhiqiang immediately agreed. Although Kang Jianfei's "Love Saint" has not yet been completed, he is still very confident in Kang Jianfei's movie.

And then again, even if Kang Jianfei's movie is badly filmed, he insists on putting it into the summer season as the mainstay, Jiang Zhiqiang has no way to object.

After listening to Kang Jianfei's film schedule, McDonald's unhappiness quickly disappeared. No matter how powerful he is, he can't compete with Kang Jianfei for the golden period. As for Wang Jing's "Best Bad Friend", his treatment is actually similar to "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldier", and half of the release time is outside the summer period.

After discussing the screening, Kang Jianfei suddenly asked Madon Bear: "By the way, Lao Mai, where did you find the actor who is the leading male actor in "The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldier"? It seems that he is not an artist from Oriental Entertainment."

"Oh, you said Lin Wei," McDonald Bear smiled, "He used to be a Shaw Brothers actor. He has been a supporting actor in Qingshui Bay for two years. I think he has a good potential and has poached people. Now he has signed into Oriental Entertainment."

Of course Kang Jianfei knew Lin Wei, nicknamed "Kenko Hong Kong Takakura", but he didn't know Lin Wei's background, and he didn't expect to be an actor of Shaw Brothers. (To be continued. Please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!)
