When these words came out, everyone was really moved.
It is equivalent to making a small-budget movie, there is no problem of losing money, it is just making more and less. Everyone's mind changed, and it suddenly became lively.
"What kind of movie does Boss Yu want?"
"Small but beautiful, small but exquisite, small but weird. How did you film "The Butcher on a Rainy Night", "Human Barbecued Pork Buns", "Borrowed Seed", "The King of Power" and "The Old Corpse in the Village"? Show all your skills back then.
You can ask Lin Zhengying to go to Africa to catch zombies, what else can't you do?"
"I understand, I understand, it's a Category III film!"
"Wrong, it's a cult film!"
"It's the same anyway!"
"Boss Yu, what should I do if the budget is really not enough?"
"This is non-negotiable. It will be whatever we discuss. If there is any gap, you can figure it out on your own."
"Can it be done without a celebrity?"
"I don't care who you use, I only watch the finished film. Of course Hugelive is for overseas audiences, so you can find foreigners and Southeast Asians to film it.
If you really dig out a few new people, it will be a good deed."
Yu Jiajia pressed her hand to stop the noisy scene and said: "You understand the rules, you can operate it yourself... Mr. Wen, I need to ask you one thing."
"Don't dare!"
Wen Jundao.
"You are the president of the Screenwriters Guild. Can you do some preliminary planning and hand over the appropriate script to me?"
"sure!"
"Okay, I saw the script, discussed the budget, shooting, online, and sharing, it's that simple! I don't want to do anything, I just want to enrich the film library and help all the brothers.
I said on the first day I came here that I hope Hong Kong movies will get better and better...drink!"
Yu Jiajia's boldness appealed to this group of people, and they all raised their glasses: "Cheers!"
"Everyone is working!"
"Everyone has food to eat!"
The rise of Hong Kong's entertainment industry is different from that of the mainland.
The mainland has large studios, a planned economy, and the state requires you to film a certain number of movies every year. Directors, actors, and people behind the scenes are all within the system.
Later, the business boom surged, and private capital became the main force, and it successfully connected with art schools such as Nortel and China Theater. No matter how bad Nortel and China Theater were, they were still serious universities. This was called a science class.
Hong Kong is different.
Hong Kong was very rough at that time, so who would go filming?
Those who changed careers due to the decline of opera, those who came out of society early due to financial difficulties, those who were brought into the industry as part-time workers by their elders, those who hope to become stars and earn a lot of money to change their destiny... Except for Wang Jing, who graduated from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, most of them are at the bottom
He was born with no culture.
So these people join the industry just to find a way to make a living.
Getting to work and eating is a big deal.
What Yu Jiajia is doing now is to take them to work and have dinner!
…………
This time, Yu Jiajia became the big boss of "Movie Weekly". She spent 30 million to buy some permanent copyrights of ATV, participated in an Academy Award, and had preliminary talks with the association.
Her purpose is to control the lower-level practitioners and then control the association.
She has not forgotten the head practitioners, and believes that it is time to change strategies. 99 Entertainment must decouple from the big names in Hong Kong, suppress their living space, and completely destroy the confidence of Hong Kong circles.
And through this trip, she discovered that the Hong Kong Film Awards are really the totem of Hong Kong circles.
Every year I shout slogans on stage to stimulate myself mentally.
Get them!
Beijing, Tuanjiehu Building.
Yu Jiajia was sitting in the office, frantically searching for suitable projects.
The backlog of scripts in 99 Entertainment is stacked several floors high, and most of them have no chance. These scripts cannot be delivered to her. The ones in her hands are all those that people below think can be executed.
"Ha, found it!"
"This is it!"
Yu Jiajia looked disgraced and pulled out a notebook, with three big words written on the cover: "Dear"!
This is adapted from a CCTV "anti-trafficking" news about a divorced couple whose son suddenly disappeared and thought he had been abducted, so they embarked on a long journey to find his parents.
On the way, they met many parents who had the same experience...
The film was directed by Peter Chan and starred Huang Bo, Hao Lei, Zhao Wei and Zhang Yi. Zhao Wei won the Hong Kong Film Award for Best Actress. Huang Bo and Zhang Yi were two great actors in acting, but they lost to Liu Qingyun in "Overheard 3".
"Well, this is okay!"
Yu Jiajia watched it again at a glance and nodded frequently. This kind of subject matter and content are very suitable for acting. If you find a good director, it will be explosive.
Four main characters:
A divorced couple who lost their child, starring a man and a woman, Yu Jiajia picked up a pen and wrote a few words, and hooked the names of Huang Bo and Hao Lei.
A wealthy businessman was also looking for a child. The child disappeared for six years. He searched for it for six years, and finally gave up on having another child. When applying for a birth certificate, the staff said that they must have the child's death certificate before they can issue a birth certificate for you.
Because of the second child, the second child can only be born after the first child dies.
So the wealthy businessman issued a death certificate even though he knew the child might still be alive.
Although it was a supporting role, it was extremely outstanding. Yu Jiajia thought about it and wrote Zhang Yi’s name.
The last character is a rural woman who bought a child. She thought she was infertile, and one day her husband brought back a child. She kept it despite knowing that it might have been abducted by her husband.
Later, the protagonist couple found this place and took the child away. This rural woman discovered that she was fertile...
This character only appeared in the middle part, but his role was very important, even equal to that of the heroine. Yu Jiajia went through it in her mind and wrote down Yan Bingyan's name.
The original version was played by Zhao Wei.
"Ouch!"
"Huang Bo, Hao Lei, Zhang Yi, Yan Bingyan, what a magical lineup!"
Yu Jiajia is very satisfied with the cast she chose. To make this film, she needs to find some Hong Kong cast members in order to participate in the Academy Awards...
Kill their spiritual support!
"Hello?"
At this moment, the phone rang, it was Yao Yuan.
"Are you back?"
"You just came back, what happened?"
"If you have nothing to do, come to the software park and discuss the concert."
Um!
Yu Jiajia perked up as soon as she heard this, and hurriedly said: "Wait for me, I'll be there soon!"
After hanging up the phone, she quickly went downstairs, drove to Zhongguancun Software Park, passed the Baidu Building, walked west, and stopped outside a park.
The so-called park does not have a gate. It is a place planned by roads and belongs to the "99 Group".
The weather was getting warmer in April, and green plants and lawns had been planted. A circle surrounded the headquarters, leaving a path for entering and exiting the car. Yu Jiajia drove in slowly and got out of the car in the parking lot.
Looking at it, we can see that it is a "sieged city"-like headquarters with five buildings as the core and attached bungalow facilities as connecting lines.
Although it is a besieged city, it does not feel crowded and dark at all. There is soothing sunlight between the buildings, and the green planting areas are like small gardens. In the center is a huge green space and fountain.
Yao Yuan stood next to the fountain, with his hands on his hips, as if he was sizing up his fortune.
