After the script framework was completed, Deng Jingsheng worked with Cheng Long and two screenwriters from DreamWorks to jointly design the plot to make the plot of "Fatal Express" as full as possible.
Deng Jingsheng is Jiahe's gold medal screenwriter. Kang Jianfei also brought his cousin Wu Ruiqing into the screenwriting team and asked him to learn more from several seniors.
As for Kang Jianfei himself, he only asked Chen Shuli to collect some information on European and American celebrities to prepare for future casting, and he stopped paying much attention to this matter in the next few days.
The exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar against the US dollar has fallen to 9.3 to 1 at this time. Kang Jianfei does not know how much the Hong Kong dollar will continue to fall, but he knows that it will eventually stabilize.
The overseas box office revenue of "Home Alone" is all in US dollars, and the money is owned by Kang Jianfei personally, not DreamWorks' funds. The overseas box office revenue that has been received now, plus the revenue from the sale of the copyright of "Home Alone", add up to
Over $120 million.
Kang Jianfei did not use the money much. He only used some of it to repay bank loans, make up for the funds withdrawn from his major companies, and use it for the construction of Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City. When the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate plummeted to 9.3, Kang Jianfei began to divide the money into batches.
Convert the US dollars in your hand into Hong Kong dollars.
Nowadays, all the people in Hong Kong want to exchange Hong Kong dollars into US dollars. Kang Jianfei's throwing in some US dollars really didn't cause any waves. The Hong Kong dollar exchange rate continues to fall. Just five days later, the exchange rate fell from 9.3 to 9.6. Such a crazy depreciation.
, many people think that Hong Kong is finished, and so is the Hong Kong dollar.
In order to prevent their money from evaporating due to the depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar, Hong Kong citizens have withdrawn their bank deposits and used them either to buy hard currencies such as gold and US dollars, or to buy expensive goods such as home appliances and cars.
When citizens invariably withdraw their deposits, there are even spectacular scenes of long lines of people queuing up in front of some banks. Immediately afterwards, rumors about a certain bank being "run" began to spread, and in connection with the collapse of Xie Liyuan Gold Shop last year, Hong Kong's
Many banks have experienced credibility crises, causing more people to go to banks to withdraw money.
Finally, Hang Lung Bank was the first to be unable to hold on. The British Hong Kong government had to take over the bank urgently and made promises to appease the public, which finally suppressed the run.
The chaos in Hong Kong was largely caused by the British themselves. In order to prove that Hong Kong would collapse as soon as it left British management, and then use this to put pressure on the mainland, the British media were the first to spread negative news and cause panic among citizens.
.As a result, the mainland ignored it at all, and now the British side cannot get out of Taiwan.
None of this has anything to do with Kang Jianfei. All he cares about is whether he can make profits from it.
Although he did not know the specific rise and fall trend of the Hong Kong dollar, Kang Jianfei believed that the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar would definitely rise back, so he spent nearly 100 million U.S. dollars to convert all of it into Hong Kong dollars.
Kang Jianfei was very lucky. This time he guessed correctly for Lian Meng.
In just over half a month, the Hong Kong government will take coercive measures to keep the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate constant at 7.8. In other words, Kang Jianfei's behavior of speculating in Hong Kong dollars will bring him 2,000 in less than a month.
A huge profit of US$10,000 (equivalent to more than 150 million Hong Kong dollars).
…
…
Tseung Kwan O, Hong Kong.
At this time, Tseung Kwan O was just a sparsely populated and remote village. The Hong Kong government began to develop the new town of Tseung Kwan O last year, and so far the roads have only just been built. It is still desolate all around.
The government's initiative to develop a new town in Tseung Kwan O is the happiest thing for the residents of Tiu Keng Ling. Because if you want to build a road to Tseung Kwan O, the road section must pass through Tiu Keng Ling, which has made it possible to only go out by boat for decades.
Tiu Keng Leng finally has a road leading to Kowloon.
The hundreds of acres of wasteland purchased by Kang Jianfei are located between Tiu Keng Ling and Tseung Kwan O. An administrative building and some antique wooden buildings have been repaired.
The black Cadillac car drove off the newly repaired road and drove from a muddy yellow mud road into the busy construction site.
Before the car stopped, several people in suits from the construction site had already come up to greet Kang Jianfei after he got off the car.
For the construction of the Tseung Kwan O Film and Television City, Kang Jianfei hired a construction company affiliated with Cheung Kong Holdings. In the past two years, Hong Kong's houses have been hard to sell, and no new properties have been started. The major construction companies are too poor to open the door.
At first, Kang Jianfei revealed the news that he wanted to build a film and television city to several major construction companies. Those companies almost stopped fighting in order to grab business. In the end, Kang Jianfei held a small-scale bidding meeting before handing the business to Yangtze River, which had the most cost-effective price.
Industry.
At the front was Guo Changming, the person in charge of the construction site. Wearing a safety helmet, he came up to shake hands with Kang Jianfei and said, "Hello, Mr. Kang. I, Guo Changming, am the deputy project manager of the film and television city construction site."
"Hello, Manager Guo." Kang Jianfei reached out and shook hands with him.
Since Kang Jianfei really didn't have any confidants, the studio didn't send anyone to take charge of the management. He just asked his cousin Zhou Mingfang to check the accounts regularly, and then asked professionals to check the quality of the project every now and then.
As for who will be in charge of the film and television city after it is built, Kang Jianfei still has no suitable candidate in his mind.
While Kang Jianfei was talking to Guo Changming, someone suddenly jumped out of the crowd and greeted Kang Jianfei with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Kang."
Kang Jianfei couldn't help but laugh when he saw this man, and replied: "So it's Lao Li, are you here today?"
The person who came was Li Saifeng's father. Li's father had made a lot of money in business in the past few years, but he lost all his money by speculating in stocks and real estate. Now he still holds several houses in his hands. These houses will be gone in ten years' time.
It’s worth tens of millions, but now it’s being sold so cheaply that it’s hard to sell it.
All the money Li Saifeng earned from filming was used by her father to repair holes. This time when he heard that Kang Jianfei was going to build a film and television city, Li's father encouraged his daughter to intercede and won the renovation project of the film and television city. After the project was completed,
Father Li can also earn a lot.
"When decorating Mr. Kang's house, of course you have to be careful. If you don't come and take a look in person, I won't even be able to sleep well at night." Father Li said obediently. Kang Jianfei's current status is one that he can only look up to.
, naturally I want to please you even more.
No matter how much he wanted to play with someone else's daughter, Kang Jianfei still had to be polite to this "father-in-law". He nodded to him and said, "Not bad, it seems that we have found the right person for this decoration."
After Li's father received Kang Jianfei's approval, his smile bloomed like a chrysanthemum, and he immediately slapped him with flattery. He kept giving Kang Jianfei a hat.
Guo Changming took Kang Jianfei around the construction site and said, "There was a typhoon and heavy rain some time ago, and the work was suspended for a full month and a half. Otherwise, the progress would have been much faster. Would Mr. Kang go to the construction site over there to have a look?"
"No need," Kang Jianfei shook hands with Guo Changming, "Mr. Guo, go and do your work. I'll go to the ancient city for a walk."
Li's father immediately said: "Mr. Kang is going to see them filming. I will go with you."
Kang Jianfei nodded and headed towards the ancient city not far away with Father Li.
The so-called ancient city is just a short antique street, and the "government office" of "Bao Qingtian" is located here.
Since the construction period was still short, the crew of "Bao Qingtian" had to go back to Songcheng in Liyuan Amusement Park to shoot many scenes. However, the scenes of Kaifeng Mansion had to be shot here.
When Kang Jianfei came to the set of "Bao Qingtian", "Master Bao" was sitting in court to hear the case, and there were many ordinary people in ancient costumes standing at the door of the government office.
What was being filmed at this time was the first unit of "Bao Qingtian", "The Beauty Case". Bao Zheng, played by Jin Chaoqun, was sitting in the lobby of Kaifeng Mansion. Next to him was Gongsun Ce, played by Li Hanchi, and Zhan Zhao, played by He Jiajin, was standing next to him.
.
Lai Han-chi used to be an actor at Phoenix Film Company. Due to the deterioration of the leftist company, he finally joined Lai's TV station four years ago. He has good acting skills and good looks, but he has always played evil characters in the TV station. This time he was asked to play
Gongsun Ce can be regarded as a "good person".
Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, Chao Chao, and Ma Han were also standing on both sides of the lobby. The actors were all graduates of the Phoenix training class last year. For example, Huang Qiusheng's friend Wu Yi will play Zhao Hu.
Kang Jian flew to the side and glanced at the government servants holding fire sticks. His eyes suddenly stopped on the face of one of them, because he suddenly found an "acquaintance". The government servant who was doing a side job. He was none other than the three characters in "Shaolin Football"
Senior brother Tian Qiwen was also one of the leaders of Xingye's Xinghui company later. He was responsible for Xinghui's image promotion, business development, acting agency, and film production and planning.
In the lobby of the government office, Chen Shimei, played by Zeng Weiquan, was standing with her hands behind her back, while Qin Xianglian, played by Ruan Peizhen, was crying to Mr. Bao about her experience. These two actors were both from the previous Lishi training class, but they were the kind of semi-famous people who were not famous.
Zi, an actor who is somewhat famous but has never been able to become popular.
"Qin Xianglian, what you said is the truth? Chen Shimei is the emperor's consort. If you lie, you will frame the emperor's relatives..." Bao Zheng, played by Jin Chaoqun, was stunned and spoke his lines in a cadence. He used to be a stage actor.
Born as an actor, this dramatic tone combined with the image of the selfless Bao Zheng perfectly blends the characters, plot and history.
"Click!"
Director Liang Tian gave an order and the scene was finished. The actors who had no part in the next scene immediately asked the makeup artist to take off their wigs. Wearing that thing for more than ten minutes in the summer can kill people.
Tian Qiwen, the third senior brother who originally played the role of a yamen servant, immediately ran to help move the props after taking off his makeup. Kang Jianfei pointed at Tian Qiwen and asked Liang Tian: "What is that actor's name?"
Liang Tian didn't remember the reputation of a small actor, so he immediately called his assistant director over for questioning.
The assistant director replied: "That bad guy is called Tian Qiwen. He joined LiTV as a field worker four years ago, and occasionally did some supporting roles. After the separation of Phoenix Channel production and broadcasting, all the contracted actors were transferred to Oriental Entertainment Company. This Tian Qiwen has not officially
According to the contract, I can only continue to work part-time with the crew."
"Let's give him a small supporting role with lines in the future. I just saw him playing a small supporting role very seriously." Kang Jianfei mentioned casually, not wanting to support a small person like Tian Qiwen too much.
Although Liang Tianhe and the assistant director were confused, they didn't think about it carefully. They just thought that Kang Jianfei liked the supporting actor better, so they gave him a chance.
Kang Jianfei walked around the crew, and the main actors such as Jin Chaoqun and He Jiajin hurriedly came over to greet him. As for the minor actors and crew members who rarely saw Kang Jianfei, they all looked over with wide eyes, and the smarter ones worked hard.
I am working hard and hope to be able to show off in front of my boss.
Xu Xiaoming, the producer of "Bao Qingtian", also arrived quickly. He had just been supervising another director's film at the Liyuan Amusement Park. When he heard that Kang Jianfei had come to the film and television city, he immediately rushed over by car.
"Lao Xu, "Bao Qingtian" will be broadcast the day after tomorrow. Are you confident that you can beat TVB?" Kang Jianfei asked with a smile.
Xu Xiaoming said quite confidently: "It is certain to beat TVB. It just depends on how much the ratings can exceed the opponent. Our "Bao Qingtian" only takes enough time to make costumes and props to make a TVB "Legend of Bao".
》
TVB's "The Legend of Bao Gong" has been in theaters for five days, and the highest ratings once reached 44 points, which can be regarded as a good head start before Phoenix TV.
Kang Jianfei nodded and smiled: "Why should I separate production and broadcasting? The TV production department's programs must focus on the entire Asian market. How much they can sell for in Hong Kong is just a fraction. So the quality of the programs comes first.
, save costs if you can, but the money that should be spent must be spent, and we can't be as petty as TVB."
Xu Xiaoming quickly responded and claimed that he knew that Kang Jianfei was trying to beat him. The reason was that the quality of the TV production department's programs had declined some time ago.
